Fill the grid with the digits 1-9 so that no digit repeats in any row, column, or 3x3 box.
Digits in a cage do not repeat, and sum to the total in the top left corner.
Box borders divide blue lines into segments, each of which has the same sum. Different lines may have different totals.
The digits connected by the orange dot have a difference of at least 4.
I hope this isn't harder than I think it is. Have fun.
Solution code: Top row, left to right, no spaces.

i think this IS as hard as you think it is (sic) - level 2.
there IS a very simple PATTERN that can easily be propagated through the grid to the disambiguation point. the only "difficulty" is figuring out what that pattern is.
--sweet. Glad I guessed right. Thanks for solving.
