**PROMPT FOR LLM (copy+paste below, then append your plan)**
You are converting a **generic plan of action** into a **production-ready research/engineering `todo.md`** that is directly executable by a capable coding agent. Your output must be a single Markdown document with a fenced **XML `<workflows>`** block. Do **not** include any extra commentary, explanations, or chat—**output only the document**.
### Transformation requirements
* Be **specific** and **operational**. Replace vague goals with concrete steps, commands, checklists, acceptance gates, and explicit assumptions.
* Prefer **compact, high-signal prose**. No filler. Use short paragraphs and terse bullets.
* If information is missing, make **minimal, clearly labeled assumptions** (e.g., “Assumption: …”). Do **not** ask questions.
* Compile the spec into **executable oracles**: pre/postconditions, invariants, consumer/provider API contracts, and **metamorphic properties**. Generate both tests and **runtime guards**.

talk given by John Ousterhout about sustaining relationships

"Scar Tissues Make Relationships Wear Out"

04/26/2103. From a lecture by Professor John Ousterhout at Stanford, class CS142.

This is my most touchy-feely thought for the weekend. Here’s the basic idea: It’s really hard to build relationships that last for a long time. If you haven’t discovered this, you will discover this sooner or later. And it's hard both for personal relationships and for business relationships. And to me, it's pretty amazing that two people can stay married for 25 years without killing each other.

[Laughter]

> But honestly, most professional relationships don't last anywhere near that long. The best bands always seem to break up after 2 or 3 years. And business partnerships fall apart, and there's all these problems in these relationships that just don't last. So, why is that? Well, in my view, it’s relationships don't fail because there some single catastrophic event to destroy them, although often there is a single catastrophic event around the the end of the relation
