Summarise the State of Play in a Creative Project That Has Stalled

Stalled creative projects sit in a peculiar cognitive space: too unfinished to feel done, too distant to re-enter easily, and too much a part of the original vision to be evaluated honestly. Before deciding whether to restart, abandon, or reframe a stalled project, it helps to understand what is actually there versus what you remember being there. This produces that honest summary and gives you the smallest re-entry point that does not require recommitting to the full vision.

I have a creative project that has stalled. Project details:
- What it is: {PROJECT_DESCRIPTION}
- How far I got: {PROGRESS_DESCRIPTION}
- When I last worked on it: {LAST_WORKED}
- Why I stopped: {WHY_STOPPED}
- What I wanted it to be when finished: {ORIGINAL_VISION}

Summarise the state of play:
1. What is actually there: an honest summary of what the project contains at its current state, without the distortion of either the original vision or the disappointment of the stall
2. What is missing for it to be finished: the specific work remaining, described as concretely as possible
3. Whether the original vision still makes sense: whether the gap between where it is and where you wanted it to be is a real gap or whether the project might be closer to done than you think
4. The re-entry route: the smallest possible starting point that would let you spend [thirty minutes] on this project and make progress, without needing to re-read, re-plan, or recommit to the full vision
