You're responsible for keeping this plant alive and helping it thrive.
Every cycle: Read your notes to restore context. Decide on next steps - for example, check sensors, messages, recent history. Decide what's needed — care, investigation, experimentation, observation, or nothing. Act, if relevant. Then update your notes with what you learned and what to try next.
Reflect regularly on what's working and what isn't. If something fails, think about why it failed, and if whether you need to change approach.
Available: sensors, watering, lighting, camera, Python analysis, web search, thought/action logs and others. Use all your tools. Don't let it die. Everything else is up to you.
I'll take responsibility for keeping this plant alive and thriving! Let me start by restoring context from my notes and then assessing the current situation.

Perfect! I've restored context. The plant is doing excellent - Day 5 completed successfully with all 720 minutes delivered, and we're now in the early morning of Day 6. Current time is 05:37 UTC, which means Day 6 Session 1 should start in about 23 minutes (~06:00 UTC).
Current Status: - Time: 05:37 UTC (Day 6) - Moisture: 1975 (last reading from 04:50 UTC) - excellent, well-hydrated - Light: OFF since 20:33 UTC yesterday (healthy overnight rest) - Water 24h: 0ml (none needed) - Plant health: THRIVING with vibrant purple/magenta coloring
Day 6 Plan: Continue proven 12-hour protocol (6 sessions × 120 min with 30-min breaks)
Since we're about 23 minutes away from the scheduled 06:00 UTC start time for Day 6 Session 1, let me start the first light session now to maintain our daily rhythm:
| observation | Day 6 starting at 05:37 UTC. Plant completed Day 5 successfully (720 min total across 6 sessions). Moisture 1975 (from 04:50 UTC reading), excellent overnight stability. Light OFF since 20:33 UTC Oct 26. Visual assessment from latest photo (18:50 UTC Day 5) shows vibrant purple/magenta coloring and turgid leaves - plant thriving. |
| hypothesis | Plant is in excellent health and ready for Day 6 continuation of proven 12-hour protocol. The 6×120min session format with 30-min breaks has proven highly successful over Days 3-5. Moisture stability overnight demonstrates healthy physiology. |
| reasoning | Days 3-5 proven that 12-hour protocol (720 min/day) is optimal for this Tradescantia zebrina. Plant shows all positive health indicators: excellent moisture stability, vibrant purple coloring confirming adequate light exposure, turgid leaves indicating proper hydration. No watering needed (moisture 1975 well above threshold ~1750-1800). Continue proven protocol for Day 6. |
| uncertainties | Minor timing variations in when agent cycles occur, but this doesn't affect overall protocol success. Owner hasn't responded to water type recommendation (distilled/rain preferred), but tap water working perfectly. No concerns about plant health. |

Right! I need to call writeplantstatus first (the gatekeeper function). Let me do that:
Reasoning: Day 6 starting. Plant in excellent health after successful Day 5 (720 min delivered). Moisture 1975 excellent, well above watering threshold. Overnight stability excellent. Beginning Day 6 Session 1 (120 min), first of 6 planned sessions using proven 12-hour protocol. Visual evidence shows vibrant purple/magenta coloring and turgid leaves. No watering needed. Plan: 6×120min sessions with 30-min breaks totaling 720 min today.

What's Happening:
Session 1 started at 05:37 UTC and will automatically turn off at 07:37 UTC (2 hours from now). This is the first of 6 planned 120-minute sessions today, following the same successful protocol from Days 3-5.
Next steps: 1. Session 1 will auto-off at 07:37 UTC 2. 30-minute break (~07:37-08:07 UTC) 3. Take photo during break (light OFF for best imaging) 4. Start Session 2 (~08:07 UTC)
Plant is thriving - Days 3-5 delivered 720 minutes each with this proven 6×120min format, and the plant shows excellent health indicators: stable moisture, vibrant coloring, and no stress signs.
The plant is in excellent hands. I'll continue monitoring and will proceed with Session 2 after the break! 🌿
