My solve of "Staurolite" by bellsita and dumediat. A sudoku using the XVXV and Psycho Look-and-Say constraints.

📋 Puzzle Rules:
• Normal Sudoku rules apply.
• XVXV: Cells connected by a V must sum to either 5 or 15. Cells connected by an X must sum to either 10 or 15. Not all possible Vs and Xs are given.
• Pink cages are psycho look-and-say cages. In these cages, the digits in the cage point to boxes in the grid, and provide a referred cell which is in the same position in both boxes. The number in the top left corner should be read as a look-and-say number, which says the number of times a digit appears in the cells referenced by that cage (eg, a "23" clue means there are two 3s in the referenced cells). Digits placed within cages do NOT count towards the look-and-say total unless they are self-referencing, and digits may NOT repeat in cages.

For example, if r1c5 were a 4 and r2c5 were a 5, then exactly one of the referenced cells in box 4 or box 5 (r4c2 or r5c5, respectively) would need to contain a 2 to satisfy the look-and-say clue of "12" (ie, one 2 in the referred cells).
