Claims a missing category called execution frameworks that prescribe which human-focused tools to apply, when. Proposes a prototype gumption framework that catalogs two classes of failure: external setbacks (example: the cost and demotivation of changing a poorly defined API) and internal hang-ups. Notes concrete remedies already used (design docs, breaks) but stresses absence of a decision procedure, presents only a sketch in five minutes and asks for extensions.
