## Complete System Walkthrough: How All DCMN Features Work Together

Let's trace through a complete example to see how every component contributes to solving a planning problem. We'll use a simple but realistic task that demonstrates all features clearly.

### **Task**: "Pick up the red block and put it on the table"

This seems simple, but let's see how the sophisticated DCMN system handles it step by step.

---

### **🎯 Step 1: Task Analysis and Confidence Assessment**

**What Happens**:
```python
task = "Pick up the red block and put it on the table"

# System analyzes task complexity
complexity_score = planner._assess_task_complexity(task)
# Result: 0.65 (medium complexity - involves 2 actions, clear objects)

# Check confidence based on past experience
confidence = planner._check_causal_confidence(task)
# Result: 0.85 (high - system has seen pickup/place tasks before)
```

**Decision Made**:
```python
if confidence > 0.8:
    strategy = "fast_greedy"  # High confidence → use fast approach
    max_iterations = 2       # Don't need many tries
else:
    strategy = "careful_search"  # Low confidence → be careful
    max_iterations = 5           # Give it more attempts
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **Confidence-Driven Strategy Adaptation**
- System knows its own knowledge limitations
- Automatically adjusts approach based on experience
- Like an expert choosing how carefully to proceed

### **🧠 Step 2: Natural Language to PDDL Translation**

**What Happens**:
The LLM analyzes the natural language and creates formal PDDL representation.

**LLM Input**:
```
"Pick up the red block and put it on the table"
```

**LLM Reasoning** (what happens inside the neural network):
```
"This task involves:
- An agent (robot/person) 
- An object (red block)
- A destination (table)
- Two main actions: pickup and place
- Preconditions: block must be clear, table must be accessible
- Effects: block moves from current location to table"
```

**Generated PDDL Domain**:
```pddl
(define (domain blocks)
  (:requirements :strips)
  (:predicates 
    (on ?x ?y)      ; object x is on object y
    (clear ?x)      ; object x has nothing on top
    (holding ?x)    ; agent is holding object x
    (hand-empty)    ; agent's hand is free
  )
  
  (:action pickup
    :parameters (?x)
    :precondition (and (clear ?x) (hand-empty))
    :effect (and (holding ?x) (not (hand-empty)) (not (clear ?x)))
  )
  
  (:action place
    :parameters (?x ?y)
    :precondition (holding ?x)
    :effect (and (on ?x ?y) (clear ?x) (hand-empty) (not (holding ?x)))
  )
)
```

**Generated PDDL Problem**:
```pddl
(define (problem pickup-task)
  (:domain blocks)
  (:objects red-block table)
  (:init 
    (clear red-block)
    (hand-empty)
    (clear table)
  )
  (:goal (on red-block table))
)
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **Neural-Guided Symbolic Planning**
- LLM intelligence creates precise symbolic representations
- Translates messy human language into formal logic
- Like having a translator who understands both languages perfectly

---

### **⚡ Step 3: Symbolic Planning with Fast Downward**

**What Happens**:
```python
# System tries multiple planning strategies
strategies = [
    "lazy_greedy([ff(), cea()])",  # Fast greedy with FF heuristic
    "astar(ff())",                 # Optimal A* search
    "lazy_greedy([hmax(), cea()])" # Alternative heuristic
]

for strategy in strategies:
    success, plan = fast_downward.plan(domain_file, problem_file, strategy)
    if success:
        break
```

**Fast Downward Output**:
```
Running: lazy_greedy([ff(), cea()])
Search time: 0.02 seconds
Plan found:
  pickup red-block
  place red-block table
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **Enhanced Symbolic Planner Integration**
- Uses world-class symbolic planner for logical correctness
- Multiple fallback strategies ensure robustness
- Like having multiple expert consultants give opinions

---

### **🤝 Step 4: Multi-Agent Validation**

**What Happens**:
```python
# System asks multiple AI agents to validate the plan
plan = ["pickup red-block", "place red-block table"]

validators = [
    ("expert_agent_1", 0.92),  # "This plan looks good"
    ("expert_agent_2", 0.88),  # "Solid approach"  
    ("expert_agent_3", 0.85),  # "Should work fine"
    ("expert_agent_4", 0.90),  # "Logical sequence"
]

# Calculate consensus
weighted_scores = []
for agent_id, score in validators:
    reputation = planner.validator.agent_reputation[agent_id]  # e.g., 1.2
    weighted_scores.append(score * reputation)

consensus = sum(weighted_scores) / sum(reputations)  # Result: 0.89
is_valid = consensus >= 0.7  # True - plan is validated
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **MultiAgentValidator**
- Multiple independent agents check plan quality
- Weighted by agent reputation (good agents have more influence)
- Like peer review in scientific research

---

### **🎬 Step 5: Execution Simulation and Causal Learning**

**What Happens**:
```python
# System simulates executing the plan to learn causality
execution_trace = []

# Step 1: pickup red-block
pre_state = {"clear(red-block)": True, "hand-empty": True}
action = "pickup red-block"
post_state = {"holding(red-block)": True, "hand-empty": False, "clear(red-block)": False}

execution_step_1 = {
    'action': action,
    'pre_state': pre_state,
    'post_state': post_state,
    'success': True,
    'duration': 0.5
}
execution_trace.append(execution_step_1)

# Step 2: place red-block table  
pre_state = {"holding(red-block)": True, "hand-empty": False}
action = "place red-block table"
post_state = {"on(red-block, table)": True, "hand-empty": True, "holding(red-block)": False}

execution_step_2 = {
    'action': action,
    'pre_state': pre_state,
    'post_state': post_state,
    'success': True,
    'duration': 0.3
}
execution_trace.append(execution_step_2)
```

**Causal Learning**:
```python
# System automatically discovers causal relationships
learned_causality = [
    CausalTriple(
        subject="pickup(red-block)",
        predicate=CausalRelationType.REQUIRES,
        object="clear(red-block)",
        confidence=0.95
    ),
    CausalTriple(
        subject="pickup(red-block)", 
        predicate=CausalRelationType.PRODUCES,
        object="holding(red-block)",
        confidence=0.98
    ),
    CausalTriple(
        subject="pickup(red-block)",
        predicate=CausalRelationType.ENABLES,
        object="place(red-block, table)",
        confidence=0.92
    )
]
```

**Features Demonstrated**: 
- **Real-time Causal Learning**: Discovers cause-effect relationships automatically

- **CausalGraphMemory**: Stores learned relationships for future use

---

### **🧮 Step 6: Knowledge Storage and Validation**

**What Happens**:
```python
# Create a knowledge asset from this experience
causal_asset = CausalKnowledgeAsset(
    asset_id="pickup_place_basic_001",  # Cryptographic hash generated
    causal_triples=learned_causality,
    plan_trace=["pickup red-block", "place red-block table"],
    domain="blocks",
    task_description="Pick up the red block and put it on the table",
    success_rate=1.0,
    creation_time=1641234567.89,
    creator_id="dcmn_planner_v1"
)

# Store in graph memory
planner.causal_memory.store_asset(causal_asset)

# Get validation from domain experts  
blocks_experts = planner.paranets['blocks'].get_experts(3)
validations = [
    ("blocks_expert_1", 0.94),
    ("blocks_expert_2", 0.91), 
    ("blocks_expert_3", 0.88)
]

# Validate the knowledge
is_valid, consensus = planner.validator.validate_asset(causal_asset, validations)
# Result: True, 0.91 (high consensus - knowledge is reliable)
```

**Features Demonstrated**:
- **CausalKnowledgeAsset**: Cryptographically verified knowledge packages
- **DomainParanet**: Domain experts provide specialized validation
- **Knowledge Verification**: Multi-agent consensus ensures quality

---

### **💡 Step 7: Plan Explanation Generation**

**What Happens**:
```python
# System explains WHY each action was chosen
explanations = []

for i, action in enumerate(plan):
    if action == "pickup red-block":
        explanation = (
            f"Action {i+1}: '{action}' is necessary because "
            f"we need to hold the block before we can place it. "
            f"This creates the 'holding(red-block)' state which "
            f"enables the next action."
        )
    elif action == "place red-block table":
        explanation = (
            f"Action {i+1}: '{action}' achieves our goal by "
            f"creating 'on(red-block, table)' state. "
            f"This requires 'holding(red-block)' from the previous action."
        )
    explanations.append(explanation)
```

**Generated Explanations**:
```
1. Action 1: 'pickup red-block' is necessary because we need to hold 
   the block before we can place it. This creates the 'holding(red-block)' 
   state which enables the next action.

2. Action 2: 'place red-block table' achieves our goal by creating 
   'on(red-block, table)' state. This requires 'holding(red-block)' 
   from the previous action.
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **Causal Plan Explanation**
- Uses learned causal relationships to explain decisions
- Provides transparency in AI reasoning
- Like having the AI explain its thought process

---

### **📊 Step 8: Learning for Future Tasks**

**What Happens**:
```python
# Next time the system sees a similar task:
new_task = "Pick up the blue block and put it on the chair"

# System retrieves similar experiences
similar_assets = planner.causal_memory.find_similar_tasks(new_task, threshold=0.7)
# Finds our previous "pickup and place" experience

# Uses learned causal knowledge
confidence_for_new_task = 0.94  # Much higher due to previous experience
strategy = "fast_greedy"        # Can use fast approach now

# Generates plan faster using learned patterns
new_plan = ["pickup blue-block", "place blue-block chair"]  # Generated in 0.3 seconds
```

**Feature Demonstrated**: **Cross-Task Learning**
- Previous experiences help with similar future tasks
- Knowledge transfers across different objects and locations
- Like humans getting better at similar tasks over time

---

### **🎯 Final Result Summary**

**Input**: "Pick up the red block and put it on the table"

**Output**: 
```python
PlanningResult(
    success=True,
    plan=["pickup red-block", "place red-block table"],
    iterations=1,
    total_time=2.3,  # seconds
    neural_guidance_used=True,
    refinement_count=0,
    confidence_score=0.89,
    explanations=[...detailed explanations...]
)
```

**What Was Learned**:

## 🧠 Neural Network Usage Throughout the System

The DCMN system is deeply neural - neural networks are actively used in **6 out of 8 major steps**. Let me show you exactly where and how:

### **Neural Networks Used in Each Step:**

#### **🎯 Step 1: Task Analysis and Confidence Assessment**
```python
complexity_score = planner._assess_task_complexity(task)
confidence = planner._check_causal_confidence(task)
```

**Neural Networks Used:**
- **NeuralStateEvaluator**: Analyzes task complexity by encoding the task description into vector representations
- **CausalGraphMemory (GNN)**: Uses Graph Attention Networks to check confidence by retrieving similar past experiences

**What the Neural Networks Do:**
```python
class NeuralStateEvaluator(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_dim=256, hidden_dim=256):
        self.state_encoder = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(input_dim, hidden_dim),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Dropout(0.2),
            nn.Linear(hidden_dim, hidden_dim)
        )
        
        # Estimates task complexity
        self.quality_head = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(hidden_dim, 64),
            nn.ReLU(), 
            nn.Linear(64, 1),
            nn.Sigmoid()  # Complexity score 0-1
        )
```

#### **🧠 Step 2: Natural Language to PDDL Translation**
```python
LLM Reasoning: "This task involves: An agent, An object, Two main actions..."
```

**Neural Network Used:**
- **Large Language Model (Gemini)**: Massive transformer neural network with billions of parameters that:
  - Processes natural language input through attention mechanisms
  - Generates PDDL domain and problem files
  - Performs complex reasoning about planning domains

**LLM Architecture (Simplified):**
```python
# Gemini is essentially this, but with billions of parameters:
class TransformerLLM(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, vocab_size=50000, d_model=4096, num_heads=32, num_layers=40):
        self.embedding = nn.Embedding(vocab_size, d_model)
        self.transformer_layers = nn.ModuleList([
            nn.TransformerDecoderLayer(d_model, num_heads)
            for _ in range(num_layers)
        ])
        self.output_head = nn.Linear(d_model, vocab_size)
```

#### **⚡ Step 3: Symbolic Planning with Fast Downward**
```
Running: lazy_greedy([ff(), cea()])
```

**Neural Networks Used:** ❌ **NONE** - This is pure symbolic AI
- Fast Downward uses search algorithms (A*, greedy search)
- No neural networks involved - classical AI planning

#### **🤝 Step 4: Multi-Agent Validation**
```python
validators = [
    ("expert_agent_1", 0.92),  # Each agent uses neural networks
    ("expert_agent_2", 0.88),  
]
```

**Neural Networks Used:**
- **Each Validator Agent**: Individual neural networks that evaluate plan quality
- **NeuralActionPredictor**: Predicts success probability for each action

**Validator Architecture:**
```python
class NeuralActionPredictor(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_dim=512, hidden_dim=256):
        self.action_encoder = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(input_dim, hidden_dim),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Dropout(0.2)
        )
        
        # Predicts if action will succeed
        self.success_predictor = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(hidden_dim // 2, 64),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Linear(64, 1),
            nn.Sigmoid()  # Success probability 0-1
        )
```

#### **🎬 Step 5: Execution Simulation and Causal Learning**
```python
learned_causality = [
    CausalTriple("pickup(red-block)", REQUIRES, "clear(red-block)", confidence=0.95)
]
```

**Neural Networks Used:**
- **CausalGraphMemory (Graph Neural Networks)**: Analyzes execution traces to discover causal patterns
- **Graph Attention Networks**: Learn confidence scores for causal relationships

**GNN Architecture:**
```python
class CausalGraphMemory(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, embedding_dim=256, hidden_dim=128, num_heads=4):
        # Graph Attention Networks for causal reasoning
        self.gat_layers = nn.ModuleList([
            GATConv(hidden_dim, hidden_dim, heads=num_heads, dropout=0.2)
            for i in range(3)  # 3 layers of graph attention
        ])
        
        # Predicts causal relationship types
        self.relation_classifier = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Linear(hidden_dim * 2, hidden_dim),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Linear(hidden_dim, len(CausalRelationType)),
            nn.Softmax(dim=-1)  # Probability distribution over relation types
        )
```

#### **🧮 Step 6: Knowledge Storage and Validation**
```python
planner.causal_memory.store_asset(causal_asset)
blocks_experts = planner.paranets['blocks'].get_experts(3)
```

**Neural Networks Used:**
- **Graph Neural Networks**: Convert causal knowledge into graph embeddings for storage
- **GraphNeuralRetriever**: Uses GNN to find relevant domain experts
- **Domain Expert Networks**: Each paranet uses neural networks for expertise assessment

#### **💡 Step 7: Plan Explanation Generation**
```python
explanations.append(explanation)
```

**Neural Networks Used:** ❌ **NONE** in the current implementation
- Uses rule-based explanation templates
- **Could use LLM**: Future versions might use neural networks for dynamic explanation generation

#### **📊 Step 8: Cross-Task Learning**
```python
similar_assets = planner.causal_memory.find_similar_tasks(new_task, threshold=0.7)
confidence_for_new_task = 0.94  # Much higher due to previous experience
```

**Neural Networks Used:**
- **Graph Attention Networks**: Find similar tasks by comparing graph embeddings
- **NeuralMemory**: Retrieves relevant past experiences using cosine similarity
- **Task Embedding Networks**: Convert task descriptions into vector representations

**Similarity Matching:**
```python
def retrieve_similar(self, query_state, k=3):
    similarities = []
    for exp in self.experiences:
        if exp['outcome'] == 'success':
            # Neural similarity computation
            sim = np.dot(query_state, exp['state_features']) / (
                np.linalg.norm(query_state) * np.linalg.norm(exp['state_features']) + 1e-8
            )
            similarities.append((sim, exp))
```

### **Neural vs. Symbolic Breakdown:**

| Step | Component | Neural Networks | Symbolic AI |
|------|-----------|----------------|-------------|
| 1 | Task Analysis | ✅ NeuralStateEvaluator, GNN | ❌ |
| 2 | PDDL Generation | ✅ LLM (Transformer) | ❌ |
| 3 | Planning | ❌ | ✅ Fast Downward |
| 4 | Validation | ✅ Multiple Neural Validators | ❌ |
| 5 | Causal Learning | ✅ Graph Neural Networks | ❌ |
| 6 | Knowledge Storage | ✅ GNN Embeddings | ✅ RDF Graph |
| 7 | Explanation | ❌ | ✅ Rule-based |
| 8 | Cross-Task Learning | ✅ Neural Similarity | ❌ |

### **Key Neural Network Technologies:**

1. **Transformer Architecture** (LLM): For natural language understanding and PDDL generation
2. **Graph Attention Networks** (GAT): For causal relationship learning and reasoning
3. **Feedforward Networks**: For action prediction and state evaluation
4. **Embedding Networks**: For task and state representation
5. **Multi-Head Attention**: For focusing on relevant causal relationships

This is what makes DCMN truly "neuro-symbolic" - it leverages the strengths of both paradigms:
- **Neural Networks**: Handle learning, pattern recognition, language understanding, and uncertainty
- **Symbolic AI**: Ensures logical correctness, optimality, and formal verification

The neural components learn and adapt, while the symbolic components provide guarantees and logical reasoning!

## 🚀 Complex Task Walkthrough: All 13 DCMN Features in Action

The previous simple example only used 8 features. Let's see a complex task that triggers **ALL 13 DCMN features**:

### **Complex Task**: "Plan and execute a three-course dinner party for 8 guests with dietary restrictions, backup menu options, and adaptive timing based on guest arrival patterns"

This task is complex enough to trigger every DCMN feature. Let's trace through the complete process:

---

### **🎯 Step 1: Task Complexity Assessment and Strategy Selection**

**What Happens**:
```python
complex_task = """Plan and execute a three-course dinner party for 8 guests with 
dietary restrictions (2 vegetarian, 1 gluten-free), backup menu options if ingredients 
are unavailable, and adaptive timing based on guest arrival patterns"""

# System analyzes task complexity
complexity_score = planner._assess_task_complexity(complex_task)
# Result: 0.25 (very low confidence - highly complex, multi-constraint task)

# Check confidence based on past experience
confidence = planner._check_causal_confidence(complex_task)
# Result: 0.35 (low - system has limited dinner party planning experience)

print(f"🎯 Initial confidence: {confidence:.2f}, Strategy: cautious")
print(f"🔄 Increasing iterations to 8 due to very low confidence")
```

**Decision Made**:
```python
if confidence < 0.5:  # Very low confidence
    strategy = "ultra_careful_search"  # Most careful approach
    max_iterations = 8                 # Give it many attempts
    enable_hierarchical_decomposition = True
    enable_progressive_fallback = True
    enable_pddl_refinement = True
else:
    strategy = "standard_planning"
```

**Features Demonstrated**: 
- ✅ **Feature 9: Confidence-Driven Planning** - Automatically switched to ultra-careful strategy
- Low confidence triggers all advanced fallback mechanisms

---

### **🔄 Step 2: Hierarchical Task Decomposition**

**What Happens**:
```python
print("🔄 Task too complex for unified approach - decomposing into subtasks...")

# System breaks complex task into manageable pieces
subtasks = planner._hierarchical_decompose(complex_task)
print(f"Decomposed into {len(subtasks)} subtasks:")

subtasks = [
    "Plan appetizer course considering dietary restrictions",
    "Plan main course with vegetarian and gluten-free options", 
    "Plan dessert course suitable for all guests",
    "Create shopping list with backup ingredient options",
    "Establish cooking timeline with buffer periods",
    "Set up dining area and table arrangements",
    "Coordinate guest arrival and seating management"
]

for i, subtask in enumerate(subtasks, 1):
    print(f"{i}. '{subtask}'")
```

**Features Demonstrated**:
- ✅ **Feature 10: Hierarchical PDDL Generation** - Complex task broken into 7 manageable subtasks
- System recognizes task complexity exceeds unified planning capability

---

### **🧠 Step 3: Neural-Guided PDDL Generation with Failures**

**What Happens**:
```python
print("🧠 Starting adaptive PDDL generation for each subtask...")

# First attempt at PDDL generation
for subtask in subtasks[:3]:  # Start with first 3 subtasks
    domain_pddl, problem_pddl = planner._llm_generate_pddl(subtask)
    
    # Validate generated PDDL
    domain_valid, domain_errors = planner.validator.validate_domain(domain_pddl)
    problem_valid, problem_errors = planner.validator.validate_problem(problem_pddl)
    
    if not domain_valid:
        print(f"❌ Domain PDDL validation failed: {domain_errors}")
    if not problem_valid:
        print(f"❌ Problem PDDL validation failed: {problem_errors}")

print("📋 Initial PDDL generation completed with validation errors")
print("🏗️ Domain PDDL: 1,247 characters (complex multi-predicate structure)")
print("🎯 Problem PDDL: 892 characters (multiple objects and constraints)")
```

**Generated Complex PDDL Domain (Sample)**:
```pddl
(define (domain dinner-party)
  (:requirements :strips :typing :negative-preconditions)
  (:types 
    course guest ingredient equipment location restriction - object
    appetizer main-course dessert - course
    vegetarian gluten-free normal - restriction
  )
  (:predicates 
    (suitable ?course ?restriction)
    (available ?ingredient)
    (prepared ?course)
    (guest-arrived ?guest)
    (seated ?guest ?location)
    (dietary-restriction ?guest ?restriction)
    (cooking-time ?course ?duration)
    (equipment-free ?equipment)
    (ingredient-backup ?primary ?backup)
  )
  
  (:action prepare-course
    :parameters (?course - course ?ingredient - ingredient ?equipment - equipment)
    :precondition (and (available ?ingredient) (equipment-free ?equipment))
    :effect (and (prepared ?course) (not (equipment-free ?equipment)))
  )
  
  (:action serve-course
    :parameters (?course - course ?guest - guest)
    :precondition (and (prepared ?course) (seated ?guest))
    :effect (served ?course ?guest)
  )
)
```

**Features Demonstrated**:
- ✅ **Feature 6: Neural-Guided Symbolic Planning** - LLM generates complex multi-type PDDL
- Complex domain with types, multiple predicates, and constraint handling

---

### **⚡ Step 4: Symbolic Planning Attempts and Failures**

**What Happens**:
```python
print("⚡ Attempting symbolic planning with Fast Downward...")

# Try multiple strategies
strategies = [
    "lazy_greedy([ff(), cea()])",
    "astar(ff())", 
    "lazy_greedy([hmax(), cea()])",
    "eager_greedy([ff(), cea()])"
]

planning_success = False
for i, strategy in enumerate(strategies):
    print(f"Trying strategy {i+1}: {strategy}")
    success, plan = planner.symbolic_planner.plan(domain_file, problem_file, strategy)
    
    if success:
        planning_success = True
        break
    else:
        print(f"❌ Strategy {i+1} failed - plan not found")

if not planning_success:

### **💡 Step 11: Advanced Causal Plan Explanation**

**What Happens**:
```python
print("💡 Generating complex causal explanations...")

# Advanced explanation generation using learned causality
complex_explanations = []

for i, action in enumerate(final_plan[:5]):  # Show first 5 for brevity
    # Look up relevant causal knowledge for this action
    relevant_causality = planner._find_relevant_causal_knowledge(action, learned_causality)
    
    # Generate contextual explanation
    explanation = planner._generate_causal_explanation(

print("\n🔍 Causal reasoning transparency:")
print("- Explanations based on learned causal relationships")
print("- Contextual understanding of action dependencies") 
print("- Multi-domain knowledge integration")
```

**Generated Complex Explanations**:
```
1. Action 'create_shopping_list(ingredients_all_courses)' is essential because our causal 
   model shows that comprehensive ingredient planning ENABLES efficient shopping and 
   PREVENTS last-minute ingredient unavailability (confidence: 94%). This action also 
   REQUIRES dietary restriction verification to avoid constraint violations.

2. Action 'shop_ingredients(primary_list)' follows causally because ingredient availability 
   ENABLES all subsequent cooking preparation. Our system learned that early shopping 
   REDUCES time pressure during cooking phases (confidence: 89%) and ENABLES backup 
   ingredient substitution if needed.

3. Action 'verify_dietary_accommodations(vegetarian_gluten_free)' is critical because 
   dietary verification PREVENTS service complications (confidence: 89%) and ENABLES 
   confident meal preparation. This causal relationship was learned from execution 
   simulation of constraint-heavy scenarios.

4. Action 'prep_appetizers(vegetable_samosas, time_minus_2_hours)' demonstrates temporal 
   causality - early appetizer preparation ENABLES relaxed cooking timeline (confidence: 94%) 
   and PRODUCES buffer time for unexpected complications during main course preparation.

5. Action 'prep_main_vegetarian(stuffed_portobello, time_minus_90_min)' shows parallel 
   cooking causality - concurrent preparation REQUIRES multiple cooking equipment 
   (confidence: 87%) but PRODUCES efficient time utilization and ENABLES smoother 
   service transitions.
