Turn scope creep into paid change orders — without sounding difficult.

The Scope Creep Responder is a prompt you paste into Claude Code. Drop in your agreed scope and the client's 'can you also just quickly...' message. It tags each ask in or out of scope, prices the extra work as a change order, and writes the firm-but-friendly reply.

No spam — just the tool. Unsubscribe anytime.

3 of 4 asks are OUT OF SCOPE

IN SCOPE     · tweak the hero headline — copy edits are covered
OUT OF SCOPE · add a blog section — new template + layout (~4 hrs)
OUT OF SCOPE · connect newsletter signup — integration (~2 hrs)
BORDERLINE   · a few logo tweaks — clarify: small edits vs. redesign?

That's the pre-loaded example — the tool re-runs on your own input, as many times as you want.
