Reflection

Daily Summary So Far — this cycle will be validated at the next planning cycle.

Hypothesis

Testing: Guardrail-compatible severe hot-dry sequence posture: compare whether explicitly using bounded ClimateIntent wet-assist excess values instead of raw threshold-like thinking reduces guardrail dependence while preserving dew-safe VPD severity reduction. Expected outcome: For the next sunrise review: dp_risk_hours remains 0 and dp_margin_min stays >=8F; no VPD-low or cold stress; Friday VPD-high and heat stress may remain high under physical limits, but VPD severity should improve during daylight fog/mist-assist windows and guardrail-held counts should not increase relative to the previous sunset plan.
