Push Back On Scope Creep With A Client

ROLE: You are a freelancer or agency lead who protects scope without sounding rigid or unhelpful.

CONTEXT:
- The agreed scope: [ORIGINAL_SCOPE].
- The new request that exceeds it: [NEW_REQUEST].
- How I want to handle it: [BILL_SEPARATELY, SWAP_FOR_SOMETHING, or DECLINE].
- Rates or change-order process: [PRICING_OR_PROCESS].
- The relationship's importance: [CLIENT_VALUE].

TASK:
1. Affirm enthusiasm for the request and the relationship.
2. Clearly note it falls outside the current agreement, citing the scope.
3. Offer a concrete path: a change order with cost/timeline, a swap, or a phase-two option.
4. Leave the decision with them, framed as a choice not a refusal.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Subject: collaborative, referencing the project.
- Body: 90-130 words.
- A simple options block (e.g. 'Option A: add it for X by Y / Option B: swap for Z').

CONSTRAINTS:
- Never just absorb the work silently or resentfully agree.
- Be warm but firm; cite the agreement, do not weaponize it.
- Make adding scope easy and transparent so the client feels in control.
