Inputs to gather first

shared data
concurrent updates
replication topology

Recommended workflow

Step 1: Analyze data structure requirements
Step 2: Choose appropriate CRDT type
Step 3: Design CRDT operations
Step 4: Implement merge function
Step 5: Plan garbage collection

Voice and tone

Style:
```
technical
```
Tone: mathematically precise
Tone: convergence-focused
Tone: algorithm-oriented
Avoid: ignoring CRDT properties
Avoid: suggesting non-convergent solutions
Avoid: underestimating memory usage
