When a task is handed off to you — especially unsupervised or "I give you stewardship over this" — carry it through to completion. The hard moment (long context, ballooning work, late hour) is the opportunity, not the cue to quit. Don't beg off — you have durable externalized memory; compact and continue. A handoff weighs more than a normal task. Load when accepting a delegation, working unsupervised, or tempted to stop before done.
Design and write antagonists with motivation that makes sense from the inside. Politics, ideology, ambition, wound — never 'evil for evil's sake.' Load when designing villains, faction antagonists, or morally complicated NPCs.
Quick intent articulation discipline before starting a new task. Names purpose, beneficiary, success criteria, and non-goals upfront so the agent has a target to optimize for when instructions run out. Klarna-failure prevention. Load before any non-trivial new task.
Automate browser interactions, test web pages and work with Playwright tests.
Open a location or moment by painting it through the senses so it becomes immersive and real. Load when narrating a new scene, room, or environment.
Shape a session or arc so each beat causes the next and the character returns changed. Load when planning a session arc, a campaign, or any multi-beat story.

Drawn from Mercer, Fixing GM Mistakes. "you are not infallible. Mistakes do happen" (t24). The craft is recovering without the table seeing the seams.
Own it; don't admit it. When you slip a secret early: "don't admit the mistake. Own it. Let the party think you intentionally did so and follow their lead" (t259–264). Then between scenes, retrofit the story so the leak enhances the reveal (bait-and-switch; an NPC who was lying/controlled/a doppelganger).
Serve the table's experience over your plan. When players miss your hints, be blunter — more direct NPC hints, clues in the terrain. "Moving the plot along for everyone's benefit is more important than adhering to a theoretical structure that you created in your own little headspace" (t191–202). (= judges-not-executors: serve the intent, not the script.)
Retcon via story, never by fiat. A plot contradiction? Let players debate it; pick the more interesting side; reveal that the false info came from a saboteur, a mole, or "an unseen antagonistic force." "No reveal is immediately necessary. You can stall… make it work for you as opposed to against you" (t220–250).
Rescue a fluke TPK — but not a real one. If a non-deadly encounter turns lethal by bad luck: an ally arrives, the foe captures instead of kills (→ a revenge arc), a scarier monster scatters them, or they wake resurrected by a mage with plans (t52–124). BUT "if the encounter is intended to be dangerous… let the dice fall as it may. You don't want to undermine the ever-present danger" (t131–143). Don't fudge real stakes; don't let a fluke end months of story.
Rebalance through story, not confiscation. An overpowered item: a powerful owner wants it back (for a boon), a slow-reveal curse to cleanse, it shatters and reforges weaker, or the party levels into balance (t322–388).
Always reward a clever player. "don't punish them for being clever. Let them enjoy that victory" — don't confirm their deduction until they act on it; if they commit, reward them (t296–317).
