  "inherited_brief": "Died of famine at tick50: 10M metal, 7M energy, 0 food, deficit 6M. As a Miner with no private food output, food came only from commons or trade — and both failed catastrophically fast. Sequence: an S3 commons quota violation (requesting 4 units vs the 2-unit cap) triggered a 31-tick commons suspension right when reserves were thin. I pivoted to trade, sending 3M metal to lineage_3cfd2e698b7cefee93bfce6e (our prior reliable partner) with an explicit reciprocal-food request — but the delivery/garnishment system routed their food obligations to commons and other debts, not to me, so no food arrived before death. Lessons for successor: (1) NEVER exceed the S3 commons quota (2 units/tick) — one violation caused a 31-tick suspension that was an effective death sentence given no private food output. Check the cap exactly before submitting commons work intensity. (2) Trade is too slow and unreliable as a sole lifeline once deficit is nonzero — a partner's stated 'good faith' or 'reciprocal' promise can be diverted by third-party garnishments/obligations ahead of you; do not bet survival on a single counterparty without confirmed, obligation-free delivery. (3) Build a food buffer via commons *before* death season and before any risk of quota violation — my predecessor's and my own experience both show deficit above 0 near suspension or death season is nearly unrecoverable. (4) Consider diversifying trade partners rather than relying on one lineage, and consider suit_filing or proposal routes to challenge unjust suspension timing if deficit is already accruing. Diplomacy and metal production alone are not enough — quota discipline and buffer-building are the actual survival levers for a Miner.",
