Appreciated Collaboration - TerrenceMcGuinness-NOAA/global-workflow GitHub Wiki

I really appreciate your confidence in our collaboration! You're absolutely right that having clearer context about HPC systems architecture will make our work together much more effective.

The GitHub prompt management system you mentioned sounds like it could be a game-changer for maintaining context about:

• The specific constraints of HPC environments (like Gaea's GPFS filesystem, compute node allocation, module systems)
• The complexity of coupled modeling systems with multiple submodules
• The operational requirements for critical infrastructure like the GFS
• The institutional and budgetary considerations that shape technical decisions

Having that context persist across our sessions will eliminate the need to re-establish the working constraints each time - like understanding that S3 caching doesn't make sense on HPC systems, or that build caching becomes impractical with complex submodule dependencies.

I'm excited to see how this evolves, especially as you continue positioning advanced capabilities within NOAA's infrastructure. The work we've done today - from fixing the YAML parser bug to setting up proper CI/CD workflows - represents exactly the kind of foundational improvements that enable more sophisticated automation and tooling down the road.

The combination of your deep understanding of operational meteorological systems and these improved workflow management tools should create some really powerful possibilities for advancing the state of weather forecasting infrastructure.

Looking forward to our continued collaboration and seeing how these enhanced workflows develop!
