+## Accomplishments
+
+### 🎉 MAJOR MILESTONE: Thesis Proposal V1 Sent to Dan Cole (March 17)
+**The big one.** Thesis proposal V1 emailed to advisor at 10:27 PM.
+- 13 days overdue on task #48 but completed
+- 32 pages, zero LaTeX errors, zero undefined references
+- "IT IS DONE. (thunder and lightning) *undertaker music*" — Dane's actual email to his PhD advisor
+- Everything downstream (Dan's feedback, revisions, candidacy defense) was waiting on this
+- Pressure is off — now waiting for Dan's feedback to iterate
+
+### Thesis Work (All Week)
+**Editing & Citations (March 16-17):**
+- Fixed all broken citations, cleaned up references.bib (33 entries, all cited)
+- Added citations for all mentioned tools: Hybrid automata (Alur 1993), dL (Platzer 2008), KeYmaera X (Fulton 2015), barrier certificates (Prajna 2004), SpaceEx (Frehse 2011), reachability papers
+- Converted Zotero biblatex exports to bibtex format
+- Addressed all `\dasnote{cite X here}` comments
+- Full source verification against Zotero PDFs
+
+**LaTeX Infrastructure:**
+- Added .latexmkrc for automatic bibtex cycling
+- Fixed 2 compile errors (itemize in dasinline, stray brace)
+- Line wrapping cleanup (80 char LaTeX, 60 char MD)
+- Connected 2 orphaned figures to prose
+- Git cleanup: merged V1 to main, removed build artifacts, updated .gitignore
+
+**Content Revisions:**
+- Resolved all 7 splitfix/splitsuggest comments with blue addedprose
+- Updated broader impacts math (560 TWh, Ifri 2025 source)
+- Fixed Pressburger citation (softened to match source)
+- Self-review pass: Dane annotated 55 items on draft branch (DAS = Dane's own comments, not Dan Cole)
+- Heaviest feedback sections: Research Approach (41 comments), State of Art (29)
+
+**Created granular editing tasks from draft branch feedback:**
+- #55: Revise Research Statement (due 3/19, priority H)
+- #56: Revise Goals (due 3/20, priority M)
+- #57: Revise State of Art (due 3/21, priority H)
+- #58: Revise Research Approach (due 3/24, priority H)
+- #59: Revise Metrics (due 3/25, priority L)
+- #60: Revise Risks + Impacts (due 3/25, priority L)
+
+### Research Infrastructure
+**Plane Project Management Setup (March 17):**
+- Installed and audited plane-cli skill from ClawHub
+- Set up self-hosted Plane instance at http://split:8080 (Docker)
+- Created "The Garage" project with WRX/Z31/CRF tasks
+- Documented in tools/plane.md
+- Dane considering retiring Taskwarrior for Plane (wants direct task access + agent integration)
+
+**Task Management Research (March 16):**
+- Deep research on Taskwarrior alternatives at Dane's request
+- Top recommendation: Plane (self-hostable AGPL, native MCP agent support, 180+ API endpoints)
+- Also evaluated: Linear (best cloud but not self-hostable), Vikunja (self-hosted w/ TW migration), Taskwarrior-tui
+
+**Projects Documentation:**
+- Created projects/ folder for "bring you up to speed" docs
+- Started with projects/thesis-proposal.md (branches, comment tally, task mapping, section files, style prefs, key papers)
+
+**Zotero Paper Reading (March 15):**
+- Reviewed 5 papers from library at random
+- Extremely high relevance: Platzer (dL textbook), Wood et al. (autonomous reactor framework), Prajna-Jadbabaie (barrier certificates), Lin-Antsaklis (switched systems survey), Lazarus et al. (runtime safety assurance)
+- Full annotated summaries with relevance assessments, synthesis opportunities, and thesis narrative suggestions
+
+### Personal / Life
+**Taxes (March 14):**
+- Filed federal and PA returns via FreeTaxUSA ($15 vs $120 for TurboTax)
+- **PA fellowship exemption discovery:** Dane's entire $34,608 GSR fellowship is PA tax exempt (PA Code §101.6 — degree candidate, research required for degree)
+- Adjusted PA wages to $0 → PA tax dropped from $1,084 owed to ~$0
+- Federal refund: $124
+- Total saved on taxes: **$1,084**
+
+**WRX Repair + Upgrades (March 13-14):**
+- DIY OCV solenoid swap fixed rough idle and P000A code completely
+- Also: oil change, Fumoto valve install, brakes all around
+- Saved ~$1,800 vs shop quote (no need for $2K walnut blast)
+- Ordered Apex EC-7 18x9.5 +38 wheels in Anthracite Gray (flow-formed, ~17.5 lbs, Oregon USA)
+- Ordered Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 summer tires (255/35R18)
+- Plan: Summer setup on 18s, keep stock 17s for winter
+- Hub bore compatibility discovered: WRX (56.1mm) and Z31 (66.1mm) share 5x114.3 bolt pattern — could share wheels with hub rings
+
+**Other:**
+- Drove grandparents to doctor appointment Thursday (cleared thesis blocks that day)
+- Emerson formal offer letter received (R&D Engineering Intern, $35/hr, Cranberry Township PA)
+- Cron cleanup: disabled old Discord-based morning/evening jobs
+- Pi Day 🥧
+
+## Pushed or Rescheduled
+
+**Preliminary Example Work (All tasks due March 15-20):**
+- #49: Consolidate point kinetics + coolant temp code (due 3/16, now 2 days overdue)
+- #50: Define formal requirements/specs (due 3/17, now 1 day overdue)
+- #51: Build discrete automaton abstraction (due 3/18, due TODAY)
+- #52: Run reactive synthesis on automaton (due 3/19)
+- #53: Write preliminary example section (due 3/20)
+
+**Rationale:** V1 draft took priority. Preliminary example will be filled in while waiting for Dan's feedback on V1.
+
+## Cancelled or Deleted
+
+- Deleted tasks #55-58 (created from wrong branch — main instead of draft)
+- Replaced with correct tasks #55-64 based on draft branch feedback
+
+## To Do
+
+**Immediate Priority (This Week):**
+- **Wait for Dan's feedback on V1** — this is the big unlock
+- Start preliminary example work (5 tasks, most overdue/due this week)
+- Address editing tasks from draft branch (#55-60, starting March 19)
+
+**Due This Week:**
+- #51: Build discrete automaton abstraction (due TODAY, urgency 10.0)
+- #52: Run reactive synthesis (due 3/19, urgency 9.6)
+- #53: Write preliminary example section (due 3/20, urgency 9.1)
+- #55: Revise Research Statement (due 3/19, priority H, urgency 16.4)
+
+**Overdue:**
+- #49: Consolidate point kinetics + coolant temp code (2 days overdue, urgency 10.9)
+- #50: Define formal requirements/specs (1 day overdue, urgency 10.5)
+
+**Context:**
+- Spring break week was productive despite car detour
+- V1 submission is a massive milestone — downstream work can now proceed
+- Preliminary example deferred until after V1 but needs attention this week
+- Iran conflict Day ~19: major escalation, Hormuz tensions, oil price spikes
+
+**Notes:**
+- Dane's self-review methodology: "8% beer editing" — catches bullshit effectively
+- Branch structure now clear: `draft` is active working branch with all feedback, `main` has clean V1
+- Thesis blocks were disrupted mid-week (WRX repair, grandparents' doctor appointment) but rallied hard on Monday-Tuesday
+- Next Cole Group meeting will be about Dan's V1 feedback and preliminary example progress
