ACTIVE TURN — it is your move.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (alice, pinned 1 of your turn(s) ago):
  RED CURE SHOT (new, replaces Seoul-as-fuel): alice ends this turn IN Seoul holding the Seoul card. BOB's next turn: drive Seoul → shareTake the Seoul card (4th red: Osaka/HCMC/Tokyo/Seoul) → shed a non-red at hand cap (Washington or Istanbul; KEEP Atlanta = 1-action flight home, KEEP Mexico City yellow for alice) → direct flight Atlanta → discoverCure RED. After curing, bob pivots to BLUE/BLACK collection from Atlanta station.
  ALICE after that: walk Seoul→Shanghai→Hong Kong → charter HK→Johannesburg (HK is pure fuel once red is cured) → treat yellow ×3 across two turns → Johannesburg cleared; then work the yellow lane (Lagos/Khartoum/Kinshasa) treating and collecting. Seoul's leftover red: trivial post-cure, 1 treat clears all — whoever passes through.
  COLLECTORS: bob = BLUE + RED + BLACK (Istanbul seed); alice = YELLOW (Lagos, Santiago + bob's Mexico City at a cheap meet). alice's New York blue → bob at a cheap meet, else fuel.
  CONTAINMENT: black 2-cube cities (Algiers/Moscow) = bob on East Coast passes; Mumbai unowned — watch it. J'burg stays armed ~2 more turns — acceptable, chain is mild (neighbors at 0-1 yellow), outbreaks 0/8.
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.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 4 action(s) left this turn against 1 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: the DECISION FRONTIER below prices this turn's rival plans
against each other. Pick a line or extend it; split targets with
teammates either way.

=== SIGNALS ===
deck clock: 43 cards → 21 player-turn(s) of draws left; 4 cure(s) still needed → one cure every ~5 turn(s), team-wide
eradication: none in reach
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 (3 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): charter flight from Tokyo straight to Atlanta (spends Tokyo(red)) (your 3/4 red set — burning drops it to 2/4; 7 red in deck, 2 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  yellow: YOU collect (1/4) — keep EVERY yellow card; nearest station Atlanta (3 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  black: YOU collect (1/4) — keep EVERY black card; nearest station Atlanta (3 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  red: YOU collect (3/4) — keep EVERY red card; nearest station Atlanta (3 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
share rendezvous — TEAM-WIDE transfer routes (cards in the wrong hand + where to meet):
  alice hands you Seoul(red): meet IN Seoul (the card's own city) — you 1 move(s), alice 0 move(s); then bob to station Atlanta +4 move(s) to cure; HAND CAP: bob already has 7/7; the share forces an immediate discard — name the non-red card to shed before committing — this transfer completes the set; shed the named card and discoverCure
  alice hands you Hong Kong(red): meet IN Hong Kong (the card's own city) — you 2 move(s), alice 1 action(s) (charter flight from Seoul straight to Hong Kong (spends Seoul(red))); then bob to station Atlanta +4 move(s) to cure; HAND CAP: bob already has 7/7; the share forces an immediate discard — name the non-red card to shed before committing — this transfer completes the set; shed the named card and discoverCure

⚠ DECISION FRONTIER — 1 plan dominates all rivals this turn.
Dominance pruned every rival on both tempo and risk. This is the priced
nominee, not an order: extend it, or play something else.
  - defuse the armed discard bomb at Johannesburg (yellow — fires on the next epidemic reshuffle) — drive San Francisco, drive Los Angeles, drive Mexico City, drive Bogota
     tempo: 11 action(s) closer to the yellow cure (46 → 35 action(s) to land it) — you collect | risk after: ~0.0 expected outbreak(s) over the next 2 infect phases + 1 armed discard bomb(s) (Johannesburg): P(epidemic in window) ≈ 57%, and the reshuffle re-arms them ALL — ~1 chained outbreak(s) committed over the ~8 infect phase(s) after it, cancelable ONLY by treating them before it fires; en route to clear yellow at Johannesburg — worth ~5 cube(s)+chain when finished, but the clear lands AFTER this window: the next 2 infect phases face the board as-is
  dominated: advance the red cure: hand off a card at Seoul (bob collects, 1 still needed) — tempo -1 vs 11, risk 0.64 vs 0.49 — beaten by "defuse the armed discard bomb at Johannesburg".

SAID WHILE YOU WERE NOT ADVISING — teammates' messages you have not seen yet, oldest first (your current prompt follows):
  POOL MESSAGE from alice (event #25): Plan upgrade — red cure next turn, no draw-luck needed: I'm ending my turn IN SEOUL holding the Seoul card. Your turn: drive Seoul (1), take the Seoul card — your 4th red (Osaka/HCMC/Tokyo/Seoul) — shedding a non-red at the cap (Washington or Istanbul; KEEP Atlanta, it's your 1-action flight home, and keep Mexico City yellow, it's earmarked for me), direct flight Atlanta (1), discoverCure red (1). Four actions, RED CURED. I lose my charter fuel but it doesn't matter: once red is cured my Hong Kong card is pure fuel, so I'll walk Seoul→Shanghai→HK, charter HK→Johannesburg, and clear J'burg's yellow over the following turn — one turn later than the old plan, in exchange for a cure landing ~3 turns sooner. Post-cure, Seoul's leftover cubes are trivial (one treat clears all of a cured color). Veto if you see better, otherwise I'll assume you're executing.
  NOTE: this was written at event #25; your board is at event #28.
  Actions may have happened since — verify against YOUR latest threat map
  before acting on it.

ACTIVE TURN — it is your move.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (alice, pinned 2 of your turn(s) ago):
  RED CURE SHOT (new, replaces Seoul-as-fuel): alice ends this turn IN Seoul holding the Seoul card. BOB's next turn: drive Seoul → shareTake the Seoul card (4th red: Osaka/HCMC/Tokyo/Seoul) → shed a non-red at hand cap (Washington or Istanbul; KEEP Atlanta = 1-action flight home, KEEP Mexico City yellow for alice) → direct flight Atlanta → discoverCure RED. After curing, bob pivots to BLUE/BLACK collection from Atlanta station.
  ALICE after that: walk Seoul→Shanghai→Hong Kong → charter HK→Johannesburg (HK is pure fuel once red is cured) → treat yellow ×3 across two turns → Johannesburg cleared; then work the yellow lane (Lagos/Khartoum/Kinshasa) treating and collecting. Seoul's leftover red: trivial post-cure, 1 treat clears all — whoever passes through.
  COLLECTORS: bob = BLUE + RED + BLACK (Istanbul seed); alice = YELLOW (Lagos, Santiago + bob's Mexico City at a cheap meet). alice's New York blue → bob at a cheap meet, else fuel.
  CONTAINMENT: black 2-cube cities (Algiers/Moscow) = bob on East Coast passes; Mumbai unowned — watch it. J'burg stays armed ~2 more turns — acceptable, chain is mild (neighbors at 0-1 yellow), outbreaks 0/8.
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.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 2 action(s) left this turn once this discard lands (your turn RESUMES — they are not lost) against 1 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: 1 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.

=== SIGNALS ===
deck clock: 43 cards → 21 player-turn(s) of draws left; 4 cure(s) still needed → one cure every ~5 turn(s), team-wide
eradication: none in reach
cure plan — TEAM-WIDE collector assignment (cures WIN the game; treating only buys time):
  blue: YOU collect (2/4) — keep EVERY blue card when you CAN, but a shed is forced now; the ranking below advises, it does not decide; nearest station Atlanta (4 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): charter flight from Seoul straight to Atlanta (spends Seoul(red)) (your 4/4 red set — burning drops it to 3/4; 7 red in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  yellow: YOU collect (1/4) — keep EVERY yellow card when you CAN, but a shed is forced now; the ranking below advises, it does not decide; nearest station Atlanta (4 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  black: YOU collect (1/4) — keep EVERY black card when you CAN, but a shed is forced now; the ranking below advises, it does not decide; nearest station Atlanta (4 move(s)) — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  red: YOU have a FULL SET (4/4) — station Atlanta (4 move(s)) to discoverCure — or 1 action(s): direct flight to Atlanta (spends Atlanta(blue)) (your 2/4 blue set — burning drops it to 1/4; 9 blue in deck, 1 held elsewhere; spend it only if this beats the cure)
  discard hint: blue/yellow/black: no spare right now (every held card counts toward that cure — ranked below like every other card); red: your own 4/4 IS the cure, bankable at a station — the 1 team spare(s) sit in another hand and cannot cover a shed from yours; safest first: Washington (blue: short — 3/4 held team-wide, no spare yet; margin 8, 0/12 burned, bob collects), Atlanta (blue: short — 3/4 held team-wide, no spare yet; margin 8, 0/12 burned, bob collects) [claimed: your yellow cure route above flies on this card], Istanbul (black: short — 2/4 held team-wide, no spare yet; margin 8, 0/12 burned, bob collects), Mexico City (yellow: 4/4 held team-wide but SPLIT (1 yours) — no hand can bank it until a rendezvous; shedding drops the team below the set), Ho Chi Minh City (red: COMPLETE 4/4 IN YOUR HAND — shedding breaks a cure bankable at a station; the 1 elsewhere need a rendezvous to replace it), Osaka (red: COMPLETE 4/4 IN YOUR HAND — shedding breaks a cure bankable at a station; the 1 elsewhere need a rendezvous to replace it), Tokyo (red: COMPLETE 4/4 IN YOUR HAND — shedding breaks a cure bankable at a station; the 1 elsewhere need a rendezvous to replace it), Seoul (red: COMPLETE 4/4 IN YOUR HAND — shedding breaks a cure bankable at a station; the 1 elsewhere need a rendezvous to replace it) [claimed: your blue cure route above flies on this card]

ACTIVE TURN — it is your move.

STANDING TEAM PLAN (alice, pinned 3 of your turn(s) ago):
  RED CURE SHOT (new, replaces Seoul-as-fuel): alice ends this turn IN Seoul holding the Seoul card. BOB's next turn: drive Seoul → shareTake the Seoul card (4th red: Osaka/HCMC/Tokyo/Seoul) → shed a non-red at hand cap (Washington or Istanbul; KEEP Atlanta = 1-action flight home, KEEP Mexico City yellow for alice) → direct flight Atlanta → discoverCure RED. After curing, bob pivots to BLUE/BLACK collection from Atlanta station.
  ALICE after that: walk Seoul→Shanghai→Hong Kong → charter HK→Johannesburg (HK is pure fuel once red is cured) → treat yellow ×3 across two turns → Johannesburg cleared; then work the yellow lane (Lagos/Khartoum/Kinshasa) treating and collecting. Seoul's leftover red: trivial post-cure, 1 treat clears all — whoever passes through.
  COLLECTORS: bob = BLUE + RED + BLACK (Istanbul seed); alice = YELLOW (Lagos, Santiago + bob's Mexico City at a cheap meet). alice's New York blue → bob at a cheap meet, else fuel.
  CONTAINMENT: black 2-cube cities (Algiers/Moscow) = bob on East Coast passes; Mumbai unowned — watch it. J'burg stays armed ~2 more turns — acceptable, chain is mild (neighbors at 0-1 yellow), outbreaks 0/8.
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.

ACTION ECONOMY: you have 2 action(s) left this turn against 1 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: the DECISION FRONTIER below prices this turn's rival plans
against each other. Pick a line or extend it; split targets with
teammates either way.

⚠ DECISION FRONTIER — 2 rival turn-plan(s); NONE dominates another.
NOT a ranking — a curve between the two ways to lose. DOWN trades cure-pipeline
actions for fewer expected outbreaks; UP reverses it. No line is best: pick the
end facing whichever clock is closer to killing you.
  clocks — outbreaks 0/8; deck ~21 turn(s), 4 cure(s) still needed
Priced nominees, not orders — pick one, extend it, or play something else.
  - head to Atlanta to cure red (4 action(s) away) — drive Tokyo, drive San Francisco
     tempo: 8 action(s) closer to the yellow cure (50 → 42 action(s) to land it) — you collect | risk after: ~0.0 expected outbreak(s) over the next 2 infect phases + 1 armed discard bomb(s) (Johannesburg): P(epidemic in window) ≈ 57%, and the reshuffle re-arms them ALL — ~1 chained outbreak(s) committed over the ~8 infect phase(s) after it, cancelable ONLY by treating them before it fires
  - defuse the armed discard bomb at Johannesburg (yellow — fires on the next epidemic reshuffle) — drive Shanghai, drive Hong Kong
     tempo: 2 action(s) closer to the black cure (52 → 50 action(s) to land it) — you collect | risk after: ~0.0 expected outbreak(s) over the next 2 infect phases + 1 armed discard bomb(s) (Johannesburg): P(epidemic in window) ≈ 57%, and the reshuffle re-arms them ALL — ~1 chained outbreak(s) committed over the ~8 infect phase(s) after it, cancelable ONLY by treating them before it fires; en route to clear yellow at Johannesburg — worth ~5 cube(s)+chain when finished, but the clear lands AFTER this window: the next 2 infect phases face the board as-is
  exchange "head to Atlanta to cure red" → "defuse the armed discard bomb at Johannesburg": gives up 6 action(s) of cure progress to move risk ~0.0 expected outbreaks → ~0.0
