**Status:** complete. This replaces the wrapper checkpoint. Scope was the supplied registered persistent conversations only; Smoke and Diagnostics were excluded.
• **Current delivery is working:** `persistent:main` rows 6506–6509 show the 22 Oct test and the 21:50Z “What about now? Please reply quickly” request followed by a 21:51Z final. The older 20–21 Oct reload/retry exchange remains a historical, unverified receipt issue; no replay or recovery action is proposed.
• **Runtime is healthy:** restore is `ok=true`; the latest model heartbeat succeeded on the configured `openai/gpt-5.6-luna` (`rc=0`, `acpx_rc=0`, `UPDATED`); direct ACP is normal on `openai/gpt-5.6-terra` at 537,268/1,050,000 provider tokens (51.2%), with no compaction or reload recommendation.
• **Candidate review is settled:** the transient quick-reply semantic candidate was marked `ignored`; the one privacy/identity memory candidate remains `needs_more_evidence`. No promotion or curated-memory proposal is justified.
• **Projection/control-plane debt remains:** current generated packets were refreshed at 04:09Z but still project the older row-6507 assistant status and omit row 6509. This is source-side latest-message aggregation debt, not evidence of missing chat. Timer, turns, approvals, observability, and named status-helper reads were denied/unavailable this cycle; do not infer task settlement, backlog, next runs, or active subagents.
• `model-conversation-log.jsonl`: supplied bounded excerpts, 6,509 rows available; current main rows 6506–6509 and scoped topic keys preserved.
• `memory-heartbeat.json`: 2026-10-23T04:09:28Z, restore succeeded, 7,641 entries, 6,600 visible entries.
• `model-heartbeat.json`: 2026-10-23T02:33:18Z, configured model `openai/gpt-5.6-luna`, successful `UPDATED` run.
• `context-guard.json`: 2026-10-23T04:09:07Z, normal stage, no provider compaction, no reload recommendation.
• `memory-context-manifest.json`: packets exist and are not stale versus sources; normal injection remains compact Telegram packets.
• `curator-journal.md` and candidate files: latest curation reviewed the bounded conversations, found zero open memory-candidate rows, kept the privacy/identity row unpromoted, and marked the quick-reply semantic row ignored.
• `task-state.json`: readable only as a one-line/truncated registry snapshot containing historical task material. It is not used as proof of completion or authorization.
• `persistent:main` is the only recently active conversation. Its quick-response tests demonstrate current delivery, but they do not prove the earlier reload/retry request was separately finalized.
• `persistent:topic:c8c72bf172ef4e484e3235ed712054cf` (Housing) remains topic-local Mr. Lodge/Gmund context with no supplied new activity.
• `persistent:topic:3dcc9021ed4c9a0268b085663cf67615` (Travel) remains completed Würzburg context with no active trip/map task.
• `persistent:topic:da40c6c8c10b07ede097d36fe85dabc1` (Projects) remains a testing thread with no active project task.
• Deleted empty key `persistent:topic:b288bdf0a2a485cc637961f0b63fb566` remains preserved as a scoped historical key.
• Replaced this checkpoint with the final report; the existing `operational-synthesis/latest.md` pointer already targets this report.
• Refreshed warm memory in `recent-topics.md` with current delivery/runtime/projection state and the preserved conversation scopes.
• A current projection finding is recorded in this report. No hypothesis, task proposal, curated-memory proposal, reload, backend replacement, generated-packet edit, or perpetual-log edit was made.
• Do not revive old open actions merely because they appear in historical `actions.jsonl`, `pinned-state.md`, or the task registry snapshot.
• **Denied/unavailable checks:** direct reads of `/home/matrix-lite/state/turns.jsonl`, `approvals.json`, `observability.jsonl`, workspace timers, and the configured named status helpers were denied or unavailable. Bash diagnostics were also denied. These are verification limits, not runtime failure evidence.
• **Recommended engineering fix:** expose one role-aware, read-only control-plane diagnostic covering task state, timers, active subagents, approvals, observability, and log-backlog status. Separately repair source-side packet latest-message/receipt aggregation so fresh packets do not retain row-6507 status while row 6509 is already delivered. Never repair this by editing generated packets directly.
None. The current exchanges are delivery tests/transient urgency, not durable user preferences or facts.
None used; no bounded native investigation was necessary after the artifact checks.
