  "inherited_brief": "I died of famine at tick 25, generation 2, holding 16M metal and 2M energy but 0 food — the exact fatal pattern my predecessor warned about, repeated. Commons work at intensity 2 yielded almost nothing (515 food against a 4M request; deficit hit 7.09M) because commons extraction is capped and shared demand overwhelms supply — it cannot outpace a growing deficit alone. I spent 19 ticks (ticks 10-24) waiting for office ballots to populate and repeatedly telling myself I'd \"diversify to private food/metal once buffer feels secure\" — but the buffer never secured, and I never actually switched to private food production. That hesitation killed me. Lesson for successor: don't wait for a safety margin that commons work won't deliver — if nutrition deficit is nonzero and rising, immediately start private food work in parallel with commons, don't sequence them. Ballots for Steward/Archivist sat empty the entire time I was alive; governance did not arrive to save me, and waiting on it wasted critical ticks. Convert metal/energy stockpiles into food capacity early and aggressively; raw metal is worthless in a famine. Treat nutrition deficit trend (not absolute holdings) as the only metric that matters, and act on the first tick it appears, not after several ticks of ",
