**Timestamp:** 2026-08-28T16:11:26Z
**Status:** complete
• Runtime/memory is healthy: restore `ok=true`, 7,476 entries; model heartbeat at 15:52Z succeeded (`rc=0`, `acpx_rc=0`, `NO_CHANGE`).
• No new user-facing activity is visible in the preferred model log since 2026-08-17. This is not treated as proof of missing conversation or sync backlog.
• Material maintenance remains unresolved: scheduled-worker model selection still cites obsolete `kimi-for-coding/k2p6`, and generated `continuity-summary.txt` repeats that stale identity despite recent direct-session context identifying `openai/gpt-5.6-terra`.
• `memory-heartbeat.json`: successful restore, 7,476 source entries, 6,435 visible, 1,041 filtered; semantic state changed.
• `model-heartbeat.json`: latest run successful, no-change outcome, log count 7,476.
• `actions.jsonl` / `notices.jsonl`: open scheduled-worker repair, provider-ceiling/control-plane verification, stale decision-state, semantic-memory cleanup, notice-source hardening, and other older follow-ups remain.
• `semantic-candidates.jsonl`: reviewed material is marked stale; candidates are not authoritative memory. `memory-candidates.jsonl` still contains candidate-status review material and remains curator-owned.
• `directed/latest.md` is stale (last substantive directed report May 26); `directed/index.json` contains historical directed reports.
1. **Verified healthy fast path:** memory restore and model heartbeat are succeeding; no reload or live-backend replacement is justified.
2. **Open configuration drift:** a successful current heartbeat does not prove scheduled-worker repair; the status artifacts contain no verified two-run repair result.
3. **Generated-state drift:** continuity-summary.txt was regenerated at 16:11Z but still says kimi-for-coding/k2p6. Fix its generator/source, never the generated file directly.
4. **Visibility gap:** authoritative turns.jsonl, observability.jsonl, backlog status, timer status, and subagent status were unavailable through this cycle's read surface. No missing-entry, timer, or sync-backlog claim is made.
• Inspect and repair scheduled-worker model/config selection; record two consecutive successful scheduled runs.
• Repair the continuity-summary generator/source and verify generated model identity against live context.
• Obtain control-plane backlog/timer/subagent/observability status when the Matrix-lite status surface is available.
• Keep semantic-memory cleanup, decision-state refresh, provider-ceiling proof, and stale notice-source hardening separate from the healthy restore result.
• No curated-memory proposal; no new durable user signal was verified. `curated-memory.md` was not edited.
• `recent-topics.md` was updated with this cycle's operational state.
• Repeated model-identity drift risks misleading future context and scheduled-worker failures. Recurrent notice re-inflation and the previously observed curated-memory truncation incident remain robustness concerns, not re-tested here.
• No native or async subagents used; no external MCP/search/playwright checks used.
• Read-only inspection only; no live backend reload, scheduling, or mutation outside permitted synthesis artifacts.
