David decided: Rejected over-complex fix plan in favour of targeted patches

After the root cause was isolated — lecture notes agent picking {ref:...} instead of insert_pdf_pages for certain runs — the agent proposed a layered plan. David cut it:

no this plan is overly complex. i just want the issues fixed. create a world class fix plan that doesnt add more complexity to our systme

When the agent proposed a hard guard that would throw an internal error if insert_pdf_pages wasn't in the tool set, David pushed for a recovery path instead of a silent fail:

but then what happens here? are tyou just gonna let the thing fail?

This decision pattern — force simplicity, then force recoverability — shaped how the bug fix was scoped.
