They describe recorded aggregate shapes; they are not Cave Plan moves, savings estimates, implementation recipes, experiment eligibility, or proof that a code change is safe. Keep the workflow operator-chosen and evidence-first. 1. Read the exact observations Require a logged-in Caveman CLI session and run: Read only the reportonlyobservations array. Do not select from the lifecycle data array. Preserve each server-provided title and observation verbatim. Handle these exact repository-profile ids:…
