- cycles: Cycles to plan; type=number; required; default=6; min=1; max=24

## Outputs
- fertileWindow: Next fertile window; format=text; primary
- bestDays: Highest-probability days; format=text
- ovulationDate: Estimated ovulation; format=date
- possibleDueDate: Possible due date; format=date

## Formula
Estimated ovulation = next period − luteal phase; conception window = ovulation − 5 through +1 days; possible due date = ovulation + 266 days.

## Rules
- Empty optional inputs are undefined, not zero.
- Hidden conditional inputs are ignored.
- Do not invent missing required inputs.
