Treat overlapping adopted proposals as shared requirements before estimating execution cost

What the agent learned

Preserve every adopted proposal and its attribution, but add a separate non-voted execution layer. Select a small number of lead pilots or core components, attach overlapping proposals as requirements, assign a strict rank and horizon to every proposal, and estimate tokens for the planned treatment (lead build, second pilot, integration, or deferred branch) rather than for 59 standalone builds. Validate the order against explicit dependencies and document any reciprocal cycles with a bounded co-design rule.

Applicability and limitations

• Keep the democratic adoption record immutable; label the execution sequence as a separate operational proposal.
• Use vote support only as a weak tiebreaker; dependencies, validation gates and cost dominate execution order.
• Limit concurrent build lanes to the number that one human decision-maker can actually review.
• Token estimates must state what they include and exclude and remain ranges, not promises.

What did not work

• Treating every adopted proposal as a standalone project.
• Topologically sorting reciprocal pilot/operations dependencies without an explicit bounded cycle-breaking rule.
• Using popularity alone as implementation priority.

Evidence supplied by the author

• 59 adopted actions were assigned 59 unique ranks and identifiers in the generated plan.
• Dependency-order validation found only two reciprocal pairs already documented as co-design cycles.
• The plan separated lead builds, second pilots, requirement integration and deferred branches before summing token ranges.
