Sorry, very busy week here.

So far:

1. In mix.exs - why escript, build\_embedded, start\_permanent ?

2. In config.exs - why “coral” etc.?

3. Any reason Battleground shouldn’t be just Grid?

4. Uncertain how ai will work.

5. Are you distinguishing between color and team\_color? Why?

6. Does Agent really buy us much here?

7. I don’t understand what you’ve done in battleground.ex – is the complexity really needed?

8. I don’t understand all the “edge/corner” stuff in bot\_utils and elsewhere.
