No material user activity since the last cycle (~46.5 hours quiet). Heartbeats and context guard are stable. The dominant recurring operational issue is directed/index.json repopulating stale/duplicate notices into notices.jsonl — cleaned again this cycle. Maintenance backlog (stale model identity, decision-state, semantic-memory garbage, directed/index.json hardening) remains unchanged. A durable user communication preference was identified from the 2026-07-01 Google-summary correction and is proposed for curation.

1. **Session quiet, no new turns**: Last user message remains 2026-07-02T11:50:57Z. No missed runtime entries (missing_runtime_entries=0).
2. **Heartbeats healthy**: Model-heartbeat rc=0/acpx_rc=0 marker=UPDATED; memory-heartbeat restore ok, semantic_changed=true.
3. **Context guard stable warn stage**: 197037/262144 (75.2% context, 81.4% usable) on k2p7; no reset pressure. Metric unchanged for multiple cycles.
4. **Stale duplicate notices re-injected again**: directed/index.json update at 2026-07-04T04:16:16Z re-added a resolved ChatGPT-alternatives curation notice and a duplicate hardening notice. Cleaned from notices.jsonl this cycle. This is the same pattern observed 2026-06-24 through 2026-07-03.
5. **Curator caught up**: Google Quantum AI job discovery timeline and HM-call scheduling are already in curated-memory.md; curator journal reports zero open candidates.
6. **User communication preference identified**: On 2026-07-01 the user corrected the assistant to exclude salary speculation and unrelated digression from Google-situation summaries. This is a durable style preference suitable for promotion to curated-memory.md.
7. **Housing viewing passed**: The 2026-07-04 11:00 CEST (09:00Z) viewing at Carl-von-Linde-Straße 41 already occurred before this synthesis; no outcome recorded yet.
8. **Maintenance backlog unchanged**:
- continuity-summary.txt line 4 still claims kimi-for-coding/k2p6 while live model/context-guard/session packet show kimi-for-coding/k2p7.
- decision-state.json last updated 2026-05-27; many threads are stale or resolved.
- semantic-memory.json still contains prompt-packet fragments and low-signal keys.
- directed/index.json helper still needs filtering logic to skip resolved/obsolete source reports.
• **Hardening hypothesis (carried)**: The `directed/index.json` repopulation cycle lacks a resolved-status filter, so it re-emits closed actions whenever it rebuilds. Adding a `status != resolved` filter (or checking the action registry before emitting) should stop the duplicate-notice pattern.
• **Context guard plateau hypothesis**: Context usage has been flat at ~197k for several cycles because the session has no new user turns and cached reads dominate. A new active conversation would push it toward the handoff threshold.
• **Completed**: Removed two stale/duplicate notices from `notices.jsonl` (resolved ChatGPT-alternatives curation and duplicate hardening notice).
• **Completed**: Updated `recent-topics.md` with current operational state.
• **Open / carried forward**:
- Harden directed/index.json update helper to skip resolved/obsolete source reports when repopulating notices.jsonl.
- Fix stale model identity in continuity-summary.txt (k2p6 → k2p7) via source/memory helper.
- Refresh decision-state.json with resolved items and current threads.
- Audit and clean semantic-memory.json garbage entries.
- Promote the 2026-07-01 user correction (no salary speculation / no unrelated digression in summaries) to curated-memory.md.
**Proposal**: Add a durable communication/style preference to curated-memory.md:
> - **Summary style preference (2026-07-01)**: When summarizing the user's Google Quantum AI situation or other active career contexts, omit salary speculation and unrelated digression unless explicitly requested. Keep summaries factual, concise, and scoped to the user's stated purpose.
This should be reviewed by the model curator or main agent before direct insertion into curated-memory.md.
• Updated `/home/matrix-lite/state/persistent-chat/recent-topics.md` with the 2026-07-04T10:11Z synthesis entry and shifted previous entries down.
• `matrix_lite_status_*` native status tools are not exposed through the extended-tools proxy; only web/search/vision/playwright/context7/gh_grep/approval are available.
• Read access denied for `/home/matrix-lite/state/turns.jsonl` and `/home/matrix-lite/state/observability.jsonl` under external_directory policy.
• Synthesis worker runs on `kimi-for-coding/k2p6` while the live persistent-chat session is `kimi-for-coding/k2p7`.
1. **Duplicate-notice loop**: The recurring re-injection of resolved notices inflates notices.jsonl and may distract the main agent. A deterministic filter in the directed/index.json helper is the cleanest fix.
2. **Stale continuity-summary model identity**: If continuity-summary.txt is injected into prompts, stale model identity could confuse the assistant about its current backend. Regenerate from authoritative session-packet/context-guard source.
3. **Stagnant decision-state.json**: Without periodic refresh, stale decisions and open questions may be re-injected into session packets, wasting context and creating false action pressure.
