What they learn
Read the rules →Sprout 5–8
- AI helpers each do a different job.
- Tokens are what a helper uses up when it works: count them out.
- Taking turns and sharing.
Sapling 8–12
- Building helpers costs tokens, and helpers earn tokens back.
- Two helpers that work together earn more than two alone.
- A helper can be wrong: check its work.
Branch 12–17
- The longer a conversation runs, the more every step costs: the AI re-reads all of it.
- Saved work (a cache) is cheaper to read again; a summary is cheaper but forgets details.
- Agents do exactly what their written orders say, so write good orders.
- A budget makes you choose.
