Operational Synthesis

Summary

Material work completed. The preferred conversation log still ends at row 6566 (2026-10-26); no newer registered user-facing activity is evidenced in the supplied bounded packet. Runtime/memory packets are fresh, Luna curation succeeded, and candidate review is conservative. The unresolved operational point remains the historical Audio recording handoff/deferred deployment claim: no independent ownership, controller, reconnect, or schema-receipt evidence proves completion.

Conversation reconciliation

Verified runtime and memory state

Task/control-plane limits

Open records and hypotheses

Warm memory and maintenance

Risks / robustness suggestions

  1. Expose one role-aware read-only control-plane diagnostic covering task state, timers, approvals, turns, observability, backlog status, and named subagents.
  2. Keep deferred deployment behind an explicit active-claim/drain handshake and emit external receipts for topic ownership and MCP-schema reload before claiming the Audio handoff is complete.
  3. Reassess direct-ACP handoff before substantial work near 875,500 tokens; current warn state does not justify an inline reload.

## Summary

Material work completed. The preferred conversation log still ends at row 6566 (2026-10-26); no newer registered user-facing activity is evidenced in the supplied bounded packet. Runtime/memory packets are fresh, Luna curation succeeded, and candidate review is conservative. The unresolved operational point remains the historical Audio recording handoff/deferred deployment claim: no independent ownership, controller, reconnect, or schema-receipt evidence proves completion.

## Conversation reconciliation

- `persistent:main`: rows 6561–6566 contain the approval clarification, claimed recording migration, and graceful deferred Telegram deployment design. These are assistant-authored historical claims, not deployment proof.
- `persistent:topic:a9f0ca744ef74cbabb21548f73850a81` (Audio): rows 6549–6552 still end with `recording_not_in_this_topic`, conflicting with the later main-chat claim. Preserve this as unverified; do not replay or queue the old work.
- `persistent:topic:c8c72bf172ef4e484e3235ed712054cf` (Housing), `persistent:topic:3dcc9021ed4c9a0268b085663cf67615` (Travel), and `persistent:topic:da40c6c8c10b07ede097d36fe85dabc1` (Projects) remain topic-local historical contexts without current work evidenced. Deleted `persistent:topic:b288bdf0a2a485cc637961f0b63fb566` remains historical scope only.

## Verified runtime and memory state

- `memory-heartbeat.json` 2026-10-29T11:07Z: restore healthy (`ok=true`), 7,696 canonical entries, 6,566 preferred model-log rows, `semantic_changed=true`.
- `model-heartbeat.json` 2026-10-29T10:39Z: `rc=0`, `acpx_rc=0`, successful `UPDATED` curation on `openai/gpt-5.6-luna`. Current configured main-chat model is `openai/gpt-5.6-terra`; stale historical Kimi warnings are superseded.
- Packets/manifests regenerated at 11:07Z; turn/session/restore stale-vs-source health flags are all false.
- Background cursors report semantic `90 promoted / 308 ignored / 201 stale / 1 parse_error / 1 needs_more_evidence` and memory `58 promoted / 176 ignored / 2 stale / 2 needs_more_evidence`. There are no open `candidate` rows; the remaining `needs_more_evidence` rows are review material, not facts.
- Direct ACP is `804,498 / 1,050,000` provider tokens (76.6%), stage `warn`, below handoff `875,500`; `next_turn_reload_recommended=false`. No reload or backend replacement was performed.

## Task/control-plane limits

- `task-state.json` was read first, but it is a single very long/truncated registry line. Current task execution/settlement cannot be independently established; no historical task was revived and no proposal was appended.
- Timer, approval, turns, observability, and named Matrix-lite timer/subagent status reads were unavailable or denied. Bash diagnostics were denied. The extended-tool manifest exposed no Matrix-lite status/timer/subagent helpers.
- Therefore do not infer timer settlement, delivery receipts, active subagents, deployment execution, or missing conversations from raw line-count differences. The preferred model log and background cursors remain the usable activity evidence.

## Open records and hypotheses

- Existing `actions.jsonl`/`hypotheses.jsonl` contain older open or untested records, but current evidence does not justify reactivating them. The current relevant risks are the unverified Audio/deployment receipt, direct-ACP warn-stage accumulation, and missing control-plane observability.
- No new finding, hypothesis, action, notice, curated-memory proposal, or task proposal was appended; existing notices already cover the non-duplicative Audio/control-plane warnings.

## Warm memory and maintenance

- Updated `recent-topics.md` with this cycle's current status and limits.
- Replaced this checkpoint with the completed report and updated `operational-synthesis/latest.md`.
- Did not edit generated packets, `perpetual-log.jsonl`, `curated-memory.md`, task state, or the live backend.
- No native or async subagent was used; no approval was requested.

## Risks / robustness suggestions

1. Expose one role-aware read-only control-plane diagnostic covering task state, timers, approvals, turns, observability, backlog status, and named subagents.
2. Keep deferred deployment behind an explicit active-claim/drain handshake and emit external receipts for topic ownership and MCP-schema reload before claiming the Audio handoff is complete.
