Principlev1

Audit your entire tool stack quarterly to identify

Audit your entire tool stack quarterly to identify redundancy, unused subscriptions, and unmaintained dependencies before they compound into cognitive overhead.

Why This Is a Principle

This derives from unresolved commitments consuming working memory (Open-Loop Cognitive Cost (Zeigarnik)), cognitive limits on relationship maintenance (Dunbar's Number Limits Stable Relationships), and information wealth creating attention poverty (Information and attention have an inverse relationship: a). The principle prescribes periodic systematic review to prevent tool accumulation from exceeding cognitive capacity.
