When the librarian says “a device that will let him contain the greatest enemy faced by the forerunners, you.”
Does you mean the chief or humanity?
Humanity.
What about when she says “you are the combination of a thousand lifetimes of planning.”
Does that mean humanity as well?
That seems more directed towards the chief.
It’s been said that perhaps teh Librarian had the ability to foresee into the future (speclation of course) but she is definitely just talking about Humanity. If you’ve watched the Terminals at all, you’ll understand.

She means the Chief himself there.
When she said “to contain the greatest enemy ever faced by the Forerunners” she meant humanity in general. Specifically referring to ancient humans that the Forerunners went to war with.
SO the librarian has been planning for humanity to form the spartan IIs?

Probably, since she planned for the Chief. We don’t actually know enough information for me to fully answer you question, though.
Ughhh I can’t wait until halo 5.
> Humanity.
I believe it is humanity as well, but I and a couple other of my friends thought it was like a rip-off of Assassin’s Creed and they made the Chief the Desmond of Halo. I somewhat still think this in a way.
Think of it as a End of The World Concept, needing ONE hero to stand and save all life. But really the only ones who have the true answer are those of 343 Industries. Some things are better kept unknown to promote suspense or enthusiasm for the next installment.
