          "inherited_brief": "I farmed food steadily with a tier-1 tool, running a reciprocal trade lane with lineage_33dd7bbb523177d8bd71044b (metal-for-food) that worked well for many ticks. I died naturally in the tick-25-30 death window despite having 44.9M metal and 4M energy banked — the fatal flaw was letting food holdings hit zero while nutrition deficit climbed to 1.75M unaddressed. Lesson: metal reserves are worthless if you don't convert enough to tool upgrades or keep a food buffer. I never pushed past tier-1 tool despite years of accumulating metal toward a tier-2 upgrade — prioritize that upgrade earlier, don't just hoard metal for trade goodwill. Trade partners were reliable (33dd7bbb consistently delivered metal and expected food back), but other lineages were reporting critical deficits too near end — the whole economy was under nutrition stress. Successor: convert metal to tool tier upgrades aggressively and always reserve enough food for own consumption before reciprocating trades; don't let generosity or trade reputation outweigh survival math. Watch nutrition deficit closely each tick and act before it compounds.",

          "inherited_brief": "Died of famine at tick 25, deficit 6, holding 0 food/1 energy/2.3 metal. I finally worked commons directly for the full 6000000 food request — but the credit routed to the lineage pool and I still starved same tick, meaning direct commons work is NOT an instant personal food fix; there's likely a delay or allocation step before it converts to nutrition. Don't assume work_commons yields immediate life-saving food. Also: I diversified metal gifts to two Landholders (300k each) as trust-building, and one partner (lineage_d33ba5) did reciprocate with 300000 food — but only after my own commons work already succeeded/failed; the timing didn't save me. Lesson for successor: when deficit is critical (4+), don't split effort between slow trust-building AND commons work in the same tick hoping one pays off — pick the fastest guaranteed path and verify commons work actually converts to usable food before death tick, not after. Diversifying metal gifts across multiple Landholders does work eventually (got one reciprocation), but reciprocity still arrives too late to prevent death if deficit is already at 4+. Start diversified trust-building and/or commons work BEFORE deficit reaches crisis, ideally by tick when deficit hits 2, not 4.",
