Summary

Runtime and memory maintenance are healthy, but this is not a no-op: the scheduled-worker model-selection repair remains unverified and several long-lived source/config actions remain open.

Evidence

memory-heartbeat.json at 16:10Z: restore ok=true, 7,476 entries; model-conversation log has 6,342 rows / 3,664 runtime rows.
model-heartbeat.json at 15:53Z: rc=0, acpx_rc=0, successful NO_CHANGE.
context-guard.json at 16:10Z: direct ACP normal, 184,658 provider tokens (17.6%), no compaction, live/configured model openai/gpt-5.6-terra.
Preferred model log’s latest direct user turn is 2026-08-17: Google interview-talk preparation. Do not infer missing conversations from canonical/model line-count differences.
restore-packet.json regenerated at 16:10Z; semantic memory changed during the heartbeat. Candidate corpora are review material; broad semantic-candidate history is predominantly stale and no current promotion is proposed.

Findings and hypotheses

Verified healthy: restore, model heartbeat, context guard, and packet freshness are currently healthy. No reload is indicated.
Open high-value risk: the scheduled synthesis worker may still select obsolete kimi-for-coding/k2p6; the latest heartbeat only proves the model curator, not the scheduled worker. Require source/config inspection and two consecutive clean scheduled runs.
Generated drift: continuity-summary.txt is repeatedly reported stale on model identity. Repair its generator/source, never the generated file directly.
Operational backlog: stale decision-state.json, semantic-memory garbage audit, provider-ceiling proof, compact RAG/anchor retrieval, notice-source hardening, provider-switch handoff, and local YouTube archive continuation remain open. These are not newly resolved by this cycle.

User/context continuity

Keep Google interview-talk preparation as the latest known user topic.
Housing follow-up remains confirmation/authentication-gated; the missed ImmoScout inbox request from 2026-08-13 still has no verified final answer.
No curated-memory proposal is warranted from the available post-2026-08-17 evidence.

Blockers and missing checks

Matrix-lite timer/subagent status and log-backlog status surfaces were not available in this worker; no timer or subagent was spawned.
Independent turns.jsonl, observability.jsonl, approvals, and timer checks were not available here. Bash diagnostics were intentionally not used.
Therefore scheduled-worker health, backlog flags (missing_runtime_entries/needs_sync), and pending timers remain unverified. Do not use raw line counts as a substitute.

Recommended next actions

Main agent/infrastructure: inspect and repair scheduled-worker model/config selection; verify two clean scheduled runs.
Fix generator/source for stale model identity and refresh decision-state.json through the permitted source workflow.
When control-plane access is available, verify backlog/timers/subagents and observed provider ceiling independently.

No curated memory was edited. This report supersedes the pre-created checkpoint.
