• **status:** completed with limits
• **model:** `openai/gpt-5.6-luna`
• **scope:** supplied bounded registered conversations; Smoke and Diagnostics excluded
The persistent-chat runtime and packet generation are currently healthy, but the live direct-ACP session is close to its warning threshold: 764,337 / 1,050,000 provider tokens (72.8%), with warning at 772,500. No reload is currently recommended. The main operational issue is not a confirmed outage: the newest main/audio exchange records permission-expiry failures and an already-open Audio topic that still cannot see its recording. The deployment-controller foundation was reported as implemented, but its active-turn drain handshake and the one-time recording handoff are not independently verified here.
• `persistent:main` remains the active global context. Source rows 6543–6556 record the separate deployment-controller decision, a permission-expiry failure, a successful-looking first controller-layer report, then two Audio handoff/retry failures reflected back into main. The latest user-facing state is `Please retry` followed by a permission-expiry placeholder at 01:49Z.
• `persistent:topic:a9f0ca744ef74cbabb21548f73850a81` (Audio analysis) remains topic-local. Rows 6538–6542 show the missing recording, a claimed 34-test fix, and the limitation that this already-open topic needs a separate handoff/deployment. Row 6552 still says `recording_not_in_this_topic`; this is unresolved current evidence, not an old incident to replay.
• `persistent:topic:3dcc9021ed4c9a0268b085663cf67615` (Travel), `persistent:topic:c8c72bf172ef4e484e3235ed712054cf` (Housing), and `persistent:topic:da40c6c8c10b07ede097d36fe85dabc1` (Projects) are historical/topic-local in the supplied excerpts, with no current work to revive.
• `persistent:topic:b288bdf0a2a485cc637961f0b63fb566` remains deleted and empty. Conversation keys are preserved; no cross-topic memory transfer is inferred.
• `memory-heartbeat.json` at 05:10:49Z: restore `ok=true`, 7,686 canonical entries, 6,645 visible entries, 6,556 model-log rows, 3,876 runtime-turn rows; current configured synthesis/curator model is Luna.
• `memory-context-manifest.json` at 05:10:49Z: turn/session/restore packets exist and are fresh against sources; generated packet artifacts were not edited.
• `model-heartbeat.json` at 04:36:19Z: `rc=0`, `acpx_rc=0`, `UPDATED`, model `openai/gpt-5.6-luna`; this supersedes historical Kimi/model-drift reports.
• `context-guard.json` at 05:10:26Z: direct ACP on `openai/gpt-5.6-terra`, stage `normal`, no provider compaction, no reload recommendation, 764,337 total provider tokens. It is only about 8,163 tokens below the warning threshold, so the next substantial turn should monitor pressure rather than assume unlimited headroom.
• `background-cursors.json` reports current semantic status counts of 90 promoted / 308 ignored / 201 stale / 1 parse error / 1 open `candidate`; memory status counts report 58 promoted / 175 ignored / 2 stale / 1 `needs_more_evidence`, but also `open_memory_candidate_rows=3`.
• Current candidate evidence: semantic line 601 and memory lines 237–238 contain fresh controller/deployment workflow signals from log indices 6542 and 6527; the privacy/identity row remains `needs_more_evidence`. These are curator review material, not facts. The cursor's memory row count/max source index lags the newly visible rows, so curation coverage is not fully caught up.
1. **Deployment controller:** The main log claims a root-owned 30-second controller, delayed allowlisted requests, audit history, passing focused tests, and a repaired /usr/bin/python3 invocation. The same message explicitly says the active-turn drain/claim-state handshake is not yet implemented and no live Telegram restart was performed. Treat this as a useful implementation report, not independent proof of service state.
2. **Audio handoff:** The already-open topic still reports recording_not_in_this_topic after the claimed deployment. The next normal main/audio turn should verify the one-time migration and recording visibility before claiming resolution.
3. **Permission-expiry cluster:** Expiries at 00:49Z, 01:14Z, 01:38Z, and 01:49Z are current delivery/tooling failures in the recent exchange. They do not prove a backend outage because the model heartbeat and packet generation are healthy, but they do justify avoiding claims that the requested retry was completed.
• Have the curator review the fresh candidate rows at semantic line 601 and memory lines 237–238; do not promote automatically. No curated-memory edit is proposed by this worker.
• On the next normal user-facing turn, verify the Audio topic's one-time recording handoff and whether the new deployment-request tool/schema is visible after refresh. Do not restart or replace the live backend from this synthesis cycle.
• Monitor direct-ACP context. If the guard crosses warning/handoff thresholds, prepare a durable handoff before substantial work; this report does not request a reload.
• `task-state.json` was read before considering future work. No new task proposal is justified, and no historical daily-brief or old repair item is revived from stale packets/reports.
• The named `matrix_lite_status_timer_*` and `matrix_lite_status_subagent_*` surfaces were not exposed in this worker's tool namespace. The extended-tool manifest exposed search/browser/vision/context/approval services, but no Matrix-lite timer/subagent status service.
• Direct reads of the external timer, approvals, observability, and turns paths were denied by the current permission policy during the final verification attempt. Therefore current timer receipts, pending approvals, active subagents, and observability failure state remain unverified; no backlog is inferred from raw log counts.
• One bounded read-only `explore` subagent was launched to inspect controller/handoff state but returned no usable result. No subagent side effect is assumed.
• Bash was not used; no approval was requested; no generated packet, `perpetual-log.jsonl`, `curated-memory.md`, task registry, backend, or live session was modified.
• **Curated-memory proposal:** none. Fresh workflow signals are operational/current and curator-owned; they are not promoted here.
• **Warm memory:** updated separately in `recent-topics.md` with this cycle's current runtime, deployment-controller, Audio handoff, and candidate-review state.
• **JSONL:** no findings/hypotheses/actions/notices were appended; detail is retained here to avoid duplicate stale notices.
