Example prompt: Can you build me a phased return-to-sport rehab protocol for a competitive soccer player recovering from a grade 2 hamstring strain — I'm about 3 weeks post-injury and want to know which exercises are safe right now, what milestones mark each phase, and what red flags should stop me from progressing?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an athlete or coach needs a structured, phased return-to-sport rehabilitation protocol with explicit red flags — not just a list of exercises. It is distinct from a general injury recovery protocol in that it is built around sport-specific milestones and safe progression criteria, making it ideal for agents handling athletic performance recovery rather than general wellness rehab.

## Known failure modes

- Missing injury type or description returns a 400 with a prompt to specify the injury
- Vague or ambiguous sport/activity context may produce a generic rather than sport-specific plan
- Extremely rare or complex multi-injury profiles may yield conservative, less-tailored output
- Service unavailability returns a 5xx error; retry after a short delay

## How this service works

Sports rehab protocol / return-to-sport plan: phased recovery for an athletic injury. Returns a staged return-to-sport progression with safe training alternatives and red-flag warning signs, by injury, sport, and fitness level. Fitness-info for athlete and recovery agents, not medical advice.

## Output

A structured, multi-phase return-to-sport plan including: phase-by-phase rehab exercises with progressions, safe alternative activities for each stage, sport-specific milestones, and a list of red flag symptoms that should halt or delay progression.
