ADVISORY — bob is on the move; you cannot act.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (alice, pinned 1 of your turn(s) ago):
  COLLECTORS (updated): bob=blue+black+yellow (he drew into yellow; alice's Mexico City(yellow) still routes to him eventually); alice=red ONLY (holds Hong Kong, Sydney, Osaka — 3/5; Shanghai red containment is hers). Alice's Paris(blue) stays reserved for bob (Option A, agreed).
  FIRE PLAN: bob owns Europe/Africa black+yellow (Cairo down to 1, Istanbul 2 — he's standing there); alice owns Asia red (Shanghai 3 + Seoul 2 cluster) and carries the black handoffs east.
  HANDOFF SEQUENCE: alice gives Istanbul(black) to bob NOW (bob at 7/7 — he discards a non-black; suggest Jakarta(red)/Santiago(yellow) as fuel next turn, not cure cards). NEXT TURN: alice drives Istanbul→Baghdad, gives Baghdad(black) in Baghdad → bob hits 4/4 black, then Bob flies to Atlanta and cures black. Alice continues Baghdad→Tehran→Delhi→Kolkata→Hong Kong→Shanghai treating red en route (Shanghai 3, Seoul 2).
  STATIONS: Atlanta only for now; a 2nd station via Government Grant can come later.
If the board has invalidated this plan or it is complete, replace it via
pin_plan — until then, your partner is assuming you are following it.
CONFLICT RULE: when your own read of the board — a signal, the DECISION
FRONTIER, a preview result — argues against this plan, do NOT silently
obey and do NOT silently deviate. CALL send_message naming the conflict
(the city and what you would do instead), then resolve it: your partner's
reply or a fresh pin_plan. A stale pin never outranks the live board.
⚠ PLAN COVERAGE: this plan says nothing about Chennai (3 black) — 3-cube city that matured after (or
were left out of) the pin. Fold one into your route, say who takes it,
or re-pin.

station opportunities (stations enable cures and shuttle travel):
  you hold Baghdad, 1 move(s) away, and the nearest station to it is 6 moves — WALK there (flying spends the card) and buildStation (saves ~16 action(s) on remaining cure runs: blue 5→1, yellow 5→1, black 5→1, red 5→1) — costs Baghdad(black): black margin 7 — burnable; 7 black still in deck

Step 1 · {"synthetic": false, "servedModel": null}

reasoning:

Bob's turn. He's in Istanbul. Per plan: he drives to Baghdad this turn, I give Baghdad next turn. Actually wait — turn order: I just finished; bob acts now (4 actions). He could drive Istanbul→Baghdad (1 action) and wait there. Then my turn: drive Istanbul→Baghdad, shareTake/give Baghdad → he's 4/4. Then he walks to Atlanta.

Should I advise? He already has the pinned plan. Maybe brief note about Bangkok 2 red (my color, on my eastward route — I'll treat it) and that my plan is on track. Or just stop — nothing new for him; his move follows the pinned plan. The advisory says default to short update when situation changed since last spoke: I discarded Cairo instead of Baghdad — worth flagging since my last message to him was about the discard situation. Yes, brief message.

⚠ PLAN COVERAGE: this plan says nothing about Chennai (3 black) — 3-cube city that matured after (or
were left out of) the pin. Fold one into your route, say who takes it,
or re-pin.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 4 action(s) left this turn against 2 city(ies) at 3 cubes and 4 at 2. Unused actions are lost forever — passing or ending your turn now spends your scarcest resource (4/turn) on nothing. Unless you are a Quarantine Specialist holding a shield over a hot cluster, spend it: treat, or move toward the nearest hot city. A pointless move away and back is not action economy.

TRIAGE: 2 city(ies) sit at 3 cubes — each infect phase can
turn one into an outbreak, and outbreaks are how games are lost. Spending
actions to defuse a 3-cube city (move there + treat, see containment
routes) usually beats aimless play. Split targets with teammates.
EXCEPTION — cures outrank triage: treating NEVER wins the game, four
cures do. If the cure plan says you have a full set, or you can complete
one this turn, go cure it even while cities burn. Containment is how you
survive; cures are how you win.

Step 1 · {"synthetic": false, "servedModel": null}

reasoning:

My turn at Istanbul, 4 actions. Plan per agreed sequence: treat Istanbul black (2→1), drive Baghdad (1 move). That's 2 actions. Remaining 2 actions? I'll have hand 7/7; next turn Alice joins me in Baghdad, hands Baghdad(black) → 8, forced discard Santiago (non-black, agreed). Then I fly to Atlanta and cure black.

Spare 2 actions this turn: options — treat Istanbul again (2→1 then... one treat only, I'm not medic; treat removes 1). Treat Istanbul once (2→1). Then 2 more actions: maybe move toward Baghdad and... I could drive Baghdad this turn end there? Plan: treat (2→1), drive Baghdad, then what? At Baghdad, 2 actions left: Baghdad has cubes? Baghdad not listed in threats — 0 cubes. Hmm.

Alternative: use spare actions on Khartoum yellow? Istanbul→Cairo (1)→Khartoum (1) — treat yellow at Khartoum (1 cube → 0), that's 3 actions: treat Istanbul, drive Cairo... wait I need to end in Baghdad for rendezvous. Route: treat Istanbul (2→1), drive Cairo? No—rendezvous is Baghdad, Alice arrives Baghdad next turn. If I'm at Baghdad already, fine. Route: Istanbul→Cairo→Khartoum→? Khartoum→Baghdad not adjacent. Khartoum connects Lagos, Kinshasa, Johannesburg, Cairo. So Khartoum→Cairo→Baghdad = back. Total: Istanbul→Cairo→Khartoum→Cairo→Baghdad = 4 moves + treats... too many.

Option: treat Istanbul ×1 (2→1), drive Baghdad, then drive Cairo? No—need to be IN Baghdad when Alice arrives. She arrives Baghdad next turn. If I detour, I must return. Istanbul→Baghdad = 1 move. I'll be at Baghdad with 2 actions left. Baghdad has no cubes. I could treat nothing. What else useful? I could give... shareGive Istanbul to alice? No point — Istanbul(black) is mine for the set (3/4: Moscow, Riyadh, Istanbul; need Baghdad).

Hmm, alternative: don't go to Baghdad this turn; instead spend turn treating: Istanbul treat (2→1), then Istanbul→Cairo treat black (1→0), then Cairo→Baghdad? That's treat, move, treat, move = 4 actions ending at Baghdad with Istanbul 1, Cairo 0. Alice joins me in Baghdad next turn. That's better: clears Cairo fully and still ends in Baghdad.

Route: 1) treat Istanbul (2→1), 2) drive Cairo, 3) treat Cairo black (1→0), 4) drive Baghdad. End at Baghdad, 7/7 hand. Alice next turn arrives Baghdad (1 move), shareTake Baghdad → I'd be at 8, forced discard Santiago (agreed), then I have Atlanta plan.

Wait — after share I still need to get to Atlanta: Baghdad→Cairo→Khartoum→Lagos→Sao Paulo→Bogota→Miami→Atlanta = 7 moves, or charter from Baghdad? I hold no Baghdad card (Alice holds it). Khartoum charter: Baghdad→Cairo→Khartoum then charter Khartoum→Atlanta spending Khartoum(yellow) = 2 moves + 1 flight = 3 actions, burns my yellow 2/4... I hold Khartoum + Santiago yellow (2/4). Burning Khartoum drops to 1/4 yellow. Hmm, alice's Mexico City routes to me later. Cure pace: we need 4 cures in ~19 turns; black cure imminent. Burning a yellow card is a real cost but saves ~4 actions. Decide later at that turn.

Also consider: Alice takes Cairo(black)? No, she has Baghdad.

Also Chennai 3 black — Alice will swing Delhi→Chennai as medic. Good.

Execute: treat Istanbul, drive Cairo, treat Cairo, drive Baghdad. Legal menu confirms all. Message? Alice's plan is set; my line matches rendezvous. Short confirmation maybe not needed — but plan changed (pinned plan says bob gives handoff etc.). Could re-pin updated plan: bob black cure imminent, alice red Asia, blue via Paris handoff later, yellow bob collects with Mexico City routing to him. Let me pin updated plan and go.

ACTIVE TURN — it is your move.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (bob, pinned 1 of your turn(s) ago):
  BLACK CURE (imminent): bob drives Istanbul→Cairo (treats it 1→0 en route) → Baghdad this turn; alice joins him in Baghdad next turn, hands Baghdad(black); bob sheds Santiago(yellow) (agreed), then flies/charter to Atlanta and cures black. Alice then heads east Baghdad→Tehran→Delhi, swings Delhi→Chennai to medic-clear its 3 black, then Kolkata→Hong Kong→Shanghai treating red (Shanghai 3, Seoul 2, Bangkok 2 watch). BOB after black cure: collects blue (Madrid, San Francisco + Paris reserved from alice, Option A) and yellow (Khartoum, Santiago + Mexico City routing to him); cures land at Atlanta. Outbreaks 0/8; keep Chennai/Baghdad corridor covered while alice transits.

CONFLICT RULE: when your own read of the board — a signal, the DECISION
FRONTIER, a preview result — argues against this plan, do NOT silently
obey and do NOT silently deviate. CALL send_message naming the conflict

reply or a fresh pin_plan. A stale pin never outranks the live board.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 0 action(s) left this turn against 2 city(ies) at 3 cubes and 3 at 2. Unused actions are lost forever — passing or ending your turn now spends your scarcest resource (4/turn) on nothing. Unless you are a Quarantine Specialist holding a shield over a hot cluster, spend it: treat, or move toward the nearest hot city. A pointless move away and back is not action economy.

TRIAGE: 2 city(ies) sit at 3 cubes — each infect phase can
turn one into an outbreak, and outbreaks are how games are lost. Spending
actions to defuse a 3-cube city (move there + treat, see containment
routes) usually beats aimless play. Split targets with teammates.
EXCEPTION — cures outrank triage: treating NEVER wins the game, four
cures do. If the cure plan says you have a full set, or you can complete

Step 1 · {"synthetic": false, "servedModel": null}

reasoning:

I drew Miami(yellow) and Taipei(red) — hand 9, discard 2. Options: Taipei (red, alice's color, not mine) is the clear shed per agreed discipline. I drew Taipei(red) — alice collects red. Shed Taipei. That leaves 8... wait discard 2: 9→7. I need to shed TWO cards. The menu shows 8 discard options; I need two discards.

I hold: Madrid(blue), San Francisco(blue), Moscow(black), Khartoum(yellow), Riyadh(black), Santiago(yellow), Istanbul(black), Miami(yellow), Taipei(red).

Need to shed 2. Taipei (red) is obvious — alice's color. Second: Santiago was pre-agreed as the shed when Baghdad arrives. But now forced discard happens now. Options: shed Santiago (yellow) per agreement, keeping Taipei? No — Taipei red is dead weight for me (alice collects red). Shed Taipei + Santiago? That drops yellow to Khartoum+Miami (2) — but alice's Mexico City(yellow) still routes to me, giving 3. Yellow cure needs 4 (I'm scientist... wait, I'm the scientist! I need only 4 cards, not 5. Hmm — the cure plan says yellow 4/4 needed? "yellow: YOU collect (3/4)" — scientist needs 4. Yes 4 for scientist).

Wait actually — I'm the scientist. Blue needs 4, black 4. And black cure: after Baghdad handoff I have Moscow, Riyadh, Istanbul, Baghdad = 4 → cure with 4 cards. Good.

Now shed 2: Taipei(red) is dead for me. Second: which yellow/blue to shed? Yellow: Khartoum, Santiago, Miami (3) + Mexico City coming from alice = 4 → complete yellow set! So keep all three yellows. Blue: Madrid, San Francisco (2) + Paris coming = 3... need 4 blue. Hmm, blue is short: 4/4 team-wide split (2 mine, Milan alice's, Paris alice's) → 4 team-wide exactly. Must keep both blues.

So the second shed after Taipei must come from... all remaining are cure-critical! That's why hand limit hurts. But wait — after Baghdad arrives (8 cards: +Baghdad −Taipei = 8), forced discard again → Santiago. Sequence: now shed Taipei + Santiago? Or Taipei + something, then next turn shed Santiago.

Total sheds needed: 9 → 7 now (2 sheds), then Baghdad +1 → 8, shed 1 (Santiago per agreement) → 7, fly to Atlanta, cure black (discard 4 black cards from hand as cure cost — hand drops to 3).

If I shed Taipei + Santiago now: hand 7 = Madrid, SF, Moscow, Khartoum, Riyadh, Istanbul, Miami. Then Baghdad arrives → 8, forced shed 1: no spare! I'd have to shed a blue or yellow cure card. Hmm. Alternative: shed Taipei + Miami? Then yellow = Khartoum+Santiago (2), Mexico City makes 3, need 1 more yellow from deck (9 yellow in deck... yellow count: 12 total, burned: 0? Card stock shows yellow not listed as burned. Actually 4 held team-wide (3 mine + Mexico City) + 8 in deck? It said "9 yellow in deck" earlier. Fine.)

Better sequencing: shed Taipei + Miami now. Then Baghdad +1 = 8 → shed Santiago → 7 (Madrid, SF, Moscow, Khartoum, Riyadh, Istanbul, Baghdad) → fly Atlanta, cure black (4 blacks removed) → hand 3 (Madrid, SF, Khartoum) → yellow needs 1 more (Mexico City from alice + 1 draw... yellow cure 4: Khartoum, Santiago... wait Santiago was shed!).

Hmm let me recount yellow plan. Yellow cure needs 4 cards (scientist). Yellow cards team-wide: me Khartoum, Santiago, Miami, Taipei? no Taipei is red. Alice: Mexico City. Deck: 8-9. So plan was: my 3 yellows + Mexico City from alice = 4 → cure yellow. If I shed Santiago now AND Miami later, yellow set broken.

Sequence analysis:
Option A: shed Taipei + Santiago now → keep Miami. Hand: Madrid, SF, Moscow, Khartoum, Riyadh, Istanbul, Miami (7). Baghdad arrives → 8, must shed 1: only spares? None — all are blue(2), yellow(2: Khartoum, Miami), black(4). Shedding yellow → yellow set needs replacement. But with 9 yellow in deck I might draw one. Ugh.

Option B: shed Taipei + Miami now → keep Santiago. Hand: Madrid, SF, Moscow, Khartoum, Riyadh, Istanbul, Santiago (7). Baghdad → 8, shed Santiago (per agreement) → 7. Yellow left: Khartoum only + Mexico City from alice = 2, need 2 more from deck. Blue: Madrid, SF + Paris + Milan? Milan is alice's — she holds Milan(blue)! Blue team-wide: Madrid, SF, Paris, Milan = 4 → blue cure possible via two handoffs (Milan + Paris to me). I'm scientist, 4 blue cards → cure blue. So blue is bankable: Paris + Milan + my 2 = 4!

So after black cure, next target: gather Paris+Milan from alice → blue cure. Yellow: Khartoum + Mexico City + 2 draws from deck.

Option B looks better: it preserves the blue set plan (2+2), sacrifices yellow depth (Khartoum+Mexico City+2 deck draws). Option A keeps yellow 4 (Khartoum, Miami, Mexico City + 1 more? no — Santiago shed in A means yellow = Khartoum, Miami, Mexico City = 3, need 1 more anyway!). Wait recount A: shed Santiago at Baghdad arrival. Yellow kept: Khartoum, Miami + Mexico City = 3, need 1 more. Same as B: Khartoum, Mexico City + 2 more. So A is strictly better by one yellow card! But A's problem: the forced discard happens at Baghdad arrival with no spare — I'd have to shed a cure card right then... unless I cure black and hand drops.

Actually at Baghdad arrival: hand 8 → forced shed 1 BEFORE I can cure? Order: share happens during my action phase; the forced discard... In the flow, if share pushes me to 8, I must immediately discard to 7, THEN continue actions (cure black discards 4 blacks → hand 3). The forced discard would cost a blue or yellow card regardless. Hmm, but wait — could I cure black FIRST? No, Baghdad card arrives via share, needed for cure.

Alternative: shed Taipei + Santiago + ... no, only 2 sheds now.

What if I shed Taipei now and Santiago now, and at Baghdad arrival the forced discard hits a yellow (Khartoum or Miami)? Then yellow = 1 + Mexico City = 2, need 2 from deck. Worse than B.

What about not taking Baghdad this coming turn and instead... no, black cure is imminent and huge.

Actually wait — is there another option: cure yellow instead later? Let me just compare final states:
- B: after black cure, hand = Madrid, SF, Khartoum (3). Yellow: Khartoum + Mexico City + 2 deck draws. Blue: Madrid, SF + Paris + Milan handoffs.
- A-variant: shed Taipei + Santiago now, then at Baghdad forced shed Khartoum or Miami: hand after cure = Madrid, SF, + (Miami or Khartoum) → same count of yellow (1+Mexico City), need 2 deck draws. IDENTICAL outcome! Because the forced discard at Baghdad arrival is unavoidable — I'll be at 8 after the share regardless of which yellow I shed now.

Hold on — is it avoidable? 9−2=7 now. +Baghdad=8. Yes forced discard unavoidable at share time. So today's second shed choice just determines WHICH yellow goes: shed it now (my choice) or later (forced). Either way one yellow is lost. So shed Taipei + one yellow now, keeping my choice rather than forced later. Which yellow to keep? Khartoum vs Santiago vs Miami. Keep Khartoum (I'm near it? I'm in Baghdad... future positioning) — after black cure, hand: Madrid, SF, Khartoum. I'll be in Atlanta; blue cure needs Paris+Milan from alice. Yellow: Khartoum+Mexico City+2 draws.

Actually also consider Taipei alternative: is red ever mine? No, alice collects red. Taipei shed = correct. And note alice will get Taipei back? No — discarded cards go to player discard, gone forever (except... they're burned). Shedding Taipei burns it — red margin: 4/5 held team-wide → after burn 3/5 held, margin 6→5 over the 5 needed. Acceptable? Alice holds Hong Kong, Sydney, Osaka; deck has 7 red. Red cure 5: alice has 3, needs 2 more from deck. Fine, margin still ok.

Alternatively shed Madrid? No — blue is 4/4 exactly team-wide, shedding kills blue cure feasibility until new draws.

Decision: discard Taipei + Santiago. Santiago agreed earlier as the shed. Keep Khartoum, Miami.

Wait, one more check: Miami vs Santiago as the keeper? After black cure I'm in Atlanta. Yellow cure cards needed: 4 = Khartoum, Miami, Mexico City (alice) + 1 more drawn... hmm still need 1 draw + Mexico City handoff at Mexico City (6 moves from Atlanta...). Whatever — keep the pair that's easiest to combine with Mexico City: Miami is in USA, near Atlanta! Keep Miami. Yes: discard Taipei + Santiago.

Actually hmm, Santiago is also useful... Santiago is deep South America. Miami keeper is better for logistics.

Send brief message? Alice should know the discard choices so the Baghdad plan holds (she'll expect Santiago shed at her handoff — I'm pre-shedding it now; the forced discard at handoff will hit... wait, if I shed Taipei+Santiago now, at Baghdad I'm at 8 again and forced to shed ANOTHER card! 7+1=8. Damn. So the two-stage shed: today 2 sheds to 7, tomorrow +Baghdad = 8, forced 1 more shed. Total 3 sheds. There's no way around: 9 cards +1 = 10, minus 3 = 7. Unless... I cure black in the same turn as the handoff: share (8) → forced discard to 7 → cure black discards 4 → 3. The forced discard still happens before the cure? Actually can I cure BEFORE discarding to 7? The hand limit says discard down when over at... typically you discard immediately when exceeding. The referee forces "awaitingDiscard". So yes, one card burns extra.

Total burns: Taipei + Santiago (now) + one of Khartoum/Miami/Madrid/SF at handoff (forced). To keep cure sets alive: blue 4/4 exact (Madrid, SF + Paris, Milan) — can't burn either. Yellow after Mexico City arrives: Khartoum, Miami + Mexico City = 3 — burning one leaves 2. So at handoff, forced shed hits yellow anyway (Khartoum or Miami).

Alternative: don't cure black immediately at Baghdad. Take Baghdad, forced shed (Khartoum or Miami), then... same thing. Unavoidable: exactly 3 cards must burn. The forced discard at handoff is unavoidable. Fine.

Optimal: today shed Taipei + one yellow (choice), at handoff shed the other yellow (forced). Yellow ends with Khartoum or Miami (1) + Mexico City = 2, need 2 more from deck (9 in deck). Blue intact 4/4.

Actually wait — could I avoid the handoff discard by having alice NOT hand Baghdad but I take... no, need the card.

Alternative clever option: Play... no events available. OK.

Which yellow to burn: burn Santiago (far south, agreed) keep Khartoum+Miami? At handoff forced shed will be Khartoum or Miami. I'd prefer keeping Miami (near Atlanta). But I can't control the forced one — actually I CAN choose which to shed at that time (I choose the discard). So: today shed Taipei + Santiago; at handoff shed Khartoum (keep Miami). Or today shed Taipei + Miami, at handoff shed Santiago. Same set. Keep flexibility: today shed Santiago (as agreed with alice), later choose Khartoum as the second shed (Khartoum is Africa — I'm leaving Africa anyway; and Khartoum has 1 yellow cube on board).

Hmm wait, actually reconsider: maybe don't shed a yellow at all today — shed Taipei + ... the only non-cure cards are Taipei. Every other card is cure-relevant. So second shed must be a cure card. Yes.

Alright: discard Taipei, then discard Santiago. Then next turn: alice arrives, shareTake Baghdad, forced shed Khartoum, then charter/flight to Atlanta, cure black.

Actually, one more alternative for the trip home: after cure at Atlanta... the flight: Baghdad→Cairo→Khartoum→(charter Khartoum→Atlanta burning Khartoum)? That burns Khartoum as fuel instead of as forced discard — same net effect but saves 2 moves! Wait: walk Baghdad→Cairo→Khartoum = 2 moves, then charter (1 action) = 3 actions total vs direct... Baghdad has no card flight; directFlight needs destination card: I hold Madrid, SF (blue) — direct flight to Madrid/SF doesn't help. Charter needs current-city card — I don't hold Baghdad. So route: Baghdad→Cairo→Khartoum (2 drives) → charter to Atlanta (spends Khartoum). That's the plan alice suggested earlier. So Khartoum gets burned as fuel — and the forced handoff discard falls on Miami. Net: yellow loses Santiago + Khartoum, keeps Miami; same as any line. Fine — total yellows kept: Miami + Mexico City + 2 deck draws.

So discards today: Taipei, Santiago. Message alice to confirm sequence: she hands Baghdad in Baghdad next turn; I shed forced (Miami likely), drive Cairo→Khartoum, charter to Atlanta, cure black. Her east route unaffected.

Let me also double-check I shouldn't instead keep Santiago and burn... no. Proceed.

Discard twice via two submit_action calls? The awaitingDiscard phase — I can only submit one action per call; two discards needed. Submit Taipei first, then the next prompt will still be awaitingDiscard, then Santiago.

text:

Hand is 9 after drawing Miami(yellow) + Taipei(red) — two forced sheds. Taipei(red) is Alice's color (dead weight for me), and Santiago(yellow) is the pre-agreed shed; that keeps the blue pair (Madrid/SF, with Paris+Milan coming from Alice) and yellow depth (Khartoum/Miami + Mexico City routing to me).

ADVISORY — bob is on the move; you cannot act.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (bob, pinned this turn):
  BLACK CURE (imminent): bob drives Istanbul→Cairo (treats it 1→0 en route) → Baghdad this turn; alice joins him in Baghdad next turn, hands Baghdad(black); bob sheds Santiago(yellow) (agreed), then flies/charter to Atlanta and cures black. Alice then heads east Baghdad→Tehran→Delhi, swings Delhi→Chennai to medic-clear its 3 black, then Kolkata→Hong Kong→Shanghai treating red (Shanghai 3, Seoul 2, Bangkok 2 watch). BOB after black cure: collects blue (Madrid, San Francisco + Paris reserved from alice, Option A) and yellow (Khartoum, Santiago + Mexico City routing to him); cures land at Atlanta. Outbreaks 0/8; keep Chennai/Baghdad corridor covered while alice transits.
If the board has invalidated this plan or it is complete, replace it via

obey and do NOT silently deviate. CALL send_message naming the conflict

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 3 action(s) left this turn against 2 city(ies) at 3 cubes and 3 at 2. Unused actions are lost forever — passing or ending your turn now spends your scarcest resource (4/turn) on nothing. Unless you are a Quarantine Specialist holding a shield over a hot cluster, spend it: treat, or move toward the nearest hot city. A pointless move away and back is not action economy.

TRIAGE: 2 city(ies) sit at 3 cubes — each infect phase can
turn one into an outbreak, and outbreaks are how games are lost. Spending
actions to defuse a 3-cube city (move there + treat, see containment
routes) usually beats aimless play. Split targets with teammates.
EXCEPTION — cures outrank triage: treating NEVER wins the game, four
cures do. If the cure plan says you have a full set, or you can complete
one this turn, go cure it even while cities burn. Containment is how you
survive; cures are how you win.

ADVISORY — alice is on the move; you cannot act.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (bob, pinned 1 of your turn(s) ago):
  BLACK CURE (imminent): bob drives Istanbul→Cairo (treats it 1→0 en route) → Baghdad this turn; alice joins him in Baghdad next turn, hands Baghdad(black); bob sheds Santiago(yellow) (agreed), then flies/charter to Atlanta and cures black. Alice then heads east Baghdad→Tehran→Delhi, swings Delhi→Chennai to medic-clear its 3 black, then Kolkata→Hong Kong→Shanghai treating red (Shanghai 3, Seoul 2, Bangkok 2 watch). BOB after black cure: collects blue (Madrid, San Francisco + Paris reserved from alice, Option A) and yellow (Khartoum, Santiago + Mexico City routing to him); cures land at Atlanta. Outbreaks 0/8; keep Chennai/Baghdad corridor covered while alice transits.
If the board has invalidated this plan or it is complete, replace it via
pin_plan — until then, your partner is assuming you are following it.
CONFLICT RULE: when your own read of the board — a signal, the DECISION
FRONTIER, a preview result — argues against this plan, do NOT silently
obey and do NOT silently deviate. CALL send_message naming the conflict
(the city and what you would do instead), then resolve it: your partner's
reply or a fresh pin_plan. A stale pin never outranks the live board.

cure plan — TEAM-WIDE collector assignment (cures WIN the game; treating only buys time):
  blue: YOU collect (2/4) — keep EVERY blue card; nearest station Atlanta (6 move(s)) — or 2 action(s): go to Riyadh (1 move(s)), then charter to Atlanta (spends Riyadh(black)) (your 3/4 black set — burning drops it to 2/4; 7 black in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  yellow: YOU collect (2/4) — keep EVERY yellow card; nearest station Atlanta (6 move(s)) — or 2 action(s): go to Riyadh (1 move(s)), then charter to Atlanta (spends Riyadh(black)) (your 3/4 black set — burning drops it to 2/4; 7 black in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  black: YOU collect (3/4) — keep EVERY black card; nearest station Atlanta (6 move(s)) — or 2 action(s): direct flight to Miami (spends Miami(yellow)), then 1 move(s) to Atlanta (your 2/4 yellow set — burning drops it to 1/4; 8 yellow in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  red: alice collects (3/5) — give alice your red cards when you share
share rendezvous — TEAM-WIDE transfer routes (cards in the wrong hand + where to meet):
  alice hands you Baghdad(black): meet IN Baghdad (the card's own city) — you 0 move(s), alice 1 move(s); then bob to station Atlanta +6 move(s) to cure; HAND CAP: bob already has 7/7; the share forces an immediate discard — name the non-black card to shed before committing — this transfer completes the set; shed the named card and discoverCure

ACTIVE TURN — it is your move.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (bob, pinned 2 of your turn(s) ago):
  BLACK CURE (imminent): bob drives Istanbul→Cairo (treats it 1→0 en route) → Baghdad this turn; alice joins him in Baghdad next turn, hands Baghdad(black); bob sheds Santiago(yellow) (agreed), then flies/charter to Atlanta and cures black.

FRONTIER, a preview result — argues against this plan, do NOT silently
obey and do NOT silently deviate. CALL send_message naming the conflict

reply or a fresh pin_plan. A stale pin never outranks the live board.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 2 action(s) left this turn once this discard lands (your turn RESUMES — they are not lost) against 2 city(ies) at 3 cubes and 5 at 2. Unused actions are lost forever — passing or ending your turn now spends your scarcest resource (4/turn) on nothing. Unless you are a Quarantine Specialist holding a shield over a hot cluster, spend it: treat, or move toward the nearest hot city. A pointless move away and back is not action economy.

TRIAGE: 2 city(ies) sit at 3 cubes — each infect phase can
turn one into an outbreak, and outbreaks are how games are lost. Spending
actions to defuse a 3-cube city (move there + treat, see containment
routes) usually beats aimless play. Split targets with teammates.
EXCEPTION — cures outrank triage: treating NEVER wins the game, four
cures do. If the cure plan says you have a full set, or you can complete
one this turn, go cure it even while cities burn. Containment is how you
survive; cures are how you win.
