What my cats taught me about implementing a new framework
summary
Builds a physical chip-controlled cat flap by cutting a hole in a door and wiring a token-based access reader; registers cat RFID chips with treats and manual enrollment. Early adopter Maximus uses it immediately, Muchi circumvents the lid and rigs a treat dispenser to trigger entry, and elderly Moses tailgates and gets helper cats to piggyback-unlock him. Concrete result: the hardware and access model work, but users invent unanticipated workarounds.
