Executive summary

Persistent-chat source ingestion, packet freshness, memory restore, and Luna curation are healthy. The current material risk is unchanged but still live: the main chat describes a recording handoff and deferred Telegram deployment, while the Audio topic's last direct evidence is still recording_not_in_this_topic; no controller audit, reconnect, or new MCP-schema receipt proves completion. Direct ACP is at 804,498/1,050,000 provider tokens (76.6%, warn) but does not currently recommend reload.

Conversation reconciliation

Reviewed every supplied registered key separately, retaining scope and state:

persistent:main (open): rows 6543–6566 contain the deployment-controller discussion, expired edit attempts, a claimed staged recording move, and a proposal to queue bootstrap deployment. These are historical assistant/user messages, not proof that a request was queued or executed.
persistent:topic:a9f0ca744ef74cbabb21548f73850a81 (Audio, open): rows 6549–6552 still end with recording_not_in_this_topic. This is the strongest direct evidence for the unresolved handoff.
persistent:topic:c8c72bf172ef4e484e3235ed712054cf (Housing, open): historical Mr. Lodge/listing context only; no current work evidenced in the bounded packet.
persistent:topic:3dcc9021ed4c9a0268b085663cf67615 (Travel, open): completed Würzburg context only.
persistent:topic:da40c6c8c10b07ede097d36fe85dabc1 (Projects, open): testing only.
persistent:topic:b288bdf0a2a485cc637961f0b63fb566 (deleted): empty; preserve the key as deleted and do not revive it.

Verified runtime and memory state

memory-heartbeat.json at 17:09Z: restore OK; 7,696 canonical entries, 6,655 visible, 1,041 filtered; packet artifacts regenerated at 17:09Z and are not stale versus sources.
background-cursors.json: log ingestion processed all 6,566 model-log rows; canonical log has 7,696 rows and runtime-turn source has 3,886 rows. This is intentional filtering/deduplication, not a backlog signal. Session-log sync last scanned 1,949 runtime rows and appended zero.
model-heartbeat.json: latest curator run succeeded (rc=0, acpx_rc=0, UPDATED) on the configured current model openai/gpt-5.6-luna at 16:38Z. Historical Kimi/provider warnings are not current evidence.
Candidate lifecycle is not empty and remains review material, not fact memory: semantic 90 promoted / 308 ignored / 201 stale / 1 parse error / 1 needs_more_evidence; memory 58 promoted / 176 ignored / 2 stale / 2 needs_more_evidence. The open deployment workflow row is assistant-authored and remains unpromoted; the privacy/identity row remains context-local and unpromoted.
context-guard.json at 17:08Z: direct ACP warn, 804,498 provider tokens, 76.6%; handoff threshold 875,500 and reset threshold 978,500; next_turn_reload_recommended=false. No reload or backend replacement was performed.

Control-plane limits and task state

task-state.json is a single long, tool-truncated registry snapshot. It visibly contains only the historical owner-delivery checkpoint for the standing daily brief; current run/finalizer/next-run settlement cannot be established. Do not revive old task incidents or infer execution from the checkpoint.
The named Matrix-lite timer/subagent status tools are not exposed in this worker interface. Direct reads of /home/matrix-lite/state/turns.jsonl and the workspace timer snapshot were denied. observability.jsonl is absent. Therefore pending timers, active subagents, approvals, delivery receipts, and backlog status remain unverified.
usage-summary.json reports zero records for its 48-hour window even while direct-ACP usage is current; this is a reporting/source-boundary limitation (all 184 scanned streams were outside the selected window), not evidence of no activity.

Actions and hypotheses

On the next relevant Audio/deployment turn, verify a durable controller acceptance/audit record, service reconnect/health, topic ownership, and new MCP-schema exposure before claiming the handoff complete. Do not queue or replay historical work from this report alone.
Keep the current direct ACP session; if substantial work approaches 875,500 tokens, prepare a controlled handoff before the reset threshold. No immediate reload is justified by the current guard.
When available, expose one role-aware read-only control-plane report covering task occurrence/finalizer/delivery receipt, timers, approvals, subagents, observability, and log-backlog needs_sync/missing_runtime_entries.
Candidate status remains curator-owned. No promotion, demotion, curated-memory edit, or task proposal is justified by this bounded evidence.

Robustness risks

Generated packets and the long-lived notice/action ledgers can contain historical open material; consumers must prefer source logs/cursors and status-filtered records, not replay projected actions.
The direct-ACP session is long-lived and already in warn; the observed provider ceiling is still unset, so proactive handoff remains safer than trusting the advertised maximum near threshold.
Usage reporting and control-plane status are separate visibility gaps. Add source-backed receipts and a role-aware diagnostic rather than interpreting zero usage, line-count deltas, or a truncated registry as proof of inactivity or completion.

Curated-memory and task proposals

Curated-memory proposal: none. No new durable global fact or preference is supported.
New task proposals: none. Existing task registry and historical action rows do not justify creating or reviving work.
