Executive synthesis

No new registered user-facing activity appears after persistent:main row 6566 at 2026-10-26T06:57:14Z. The source and memory workers are caught up, but the control plane is only partially verifiable. Main-chat claims about the Audio recording handoff and deferred Telegram deployment remain assistant-authored historical claims, not completion receipts; do not replay or queue them.

Current configured synthesis and curator model is openai/gpt-5.6-luna. The live direct-ACP context guard reports Terra at 804,498/1,050,000 provider tokens (76.6%, warn), with no compaction and no reload recommendation. Historical Kimi warnings are superseded.

Conversation reconciliation

Registered keys remain separate and were reviewed independently:

| Conversation key | Bounded evidence and interpretation |

|---|---|

| persistent:main | Rows 6555–6566, 2026-10-26T01:43–06:57Z: permission-expiry retries followed by the assistant-authored migration/deployment claim and graceful-deployment design. No external completion receipt. |

| persistent:topic:a9f0ca744ef74cbabb21548f73850a81 | Audio rows 6541–6552, 2026-10-26T00:41–01:15Z, still end in recording_not_in_this_topic; this is the strongest direct evidence against treating the handoff as verified. |

| persistent:topic:3dcc9021ed4c9a0268b085663cf67615 | Travel & places rows from 2026-09-17–18: testing and Würzburg travel advice. Historical/topic-local; no active trip or map task. |

| persistent:topic:c8c72bf172ef4e484e3235ed712054cf | Housing rows from 2026-09-17: Mr Lodge/Gmund fallback and listing review. Historical/topic-local; no current viewing or outreach task in the supplied excerpt. |

| persistent:topic:da40c6c8c10b07ede097d36fe85dabc1 | Projects rows from 2026-09-17: topic identification/testing only; no active project task. |

| persistent:topic:b288bdf0a2a485cc637961f0b63fb566 | Deleted topic, zero rows. Preserve registered state; infer no content. |

The poor-audio transcription/translation workflow is already promoted as topic-local durable memory. That does not prove topic migration, deployment, reconnect, or schema exposure.

Runtime, memory, and candidate evidence

• `memory-heartbeat.json` at 2026-10-31T23:09:20Z: restore `ok=true`, 7,696 canonical entries, 6,655 visible entries, 1,041 filtered; model log 6,566 rows.

• `background-cursors.json` confirms log and semantic ingestion processed all 6,566 model rows. Candidate review counts remain 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`. These review rows are not facts; no promotion is proposed.

• `model-heartbeat.json` at 22:40Z: `rc=0`, `acpx_rc=0`, `UPDATED`, on `openai/gpt-5.6-luna`; curator journal reports no open `candidate` rows and no durable global change.

• `memory-context-manifest.json` at 23:09Z reports all packet freshness checks clear. Generated packets exist and were not edited.

• `model-conversation-log.jsonl` ends at 6,566 rows and `perpetual-log.jsonl` at 7,696 rows with the same 2026-10-26 final assistant turn. The difference is expected filtering/deduplication, not a backlog signal.

Open-ledger and task-state review

• Old open actions, notices, and hypotheses remain historical ledger material. No new evidence justifies reviving housing, daily-brief, YouTube, reload, or deployment work. The 2026-10-26 notice about verifying Audio handoff/deployment remains the relevant current notice; no duplicate was appended.

• `task-state.json` was read before considering future work, but its single long line is tool-truncated. The visible snapshot contains a historical daily-brief task; exact running/blocked state, next run, receipts, and completion are not safely enumerable. No task proposal is made.

• `decision-state.json` is stale (last updated 2026-05-27) and is treated as historical context, not proof of current plans or completion.

Blockers and unavailable checks

• The extended-tool manifest exposes no `matrix_lite_status_timer_*` or `matrix_lite_status_subagent_*` helpers.

• Direct reads of timers, approvals, observability, and `turns.jsonl` were denied by policy. A non-mutating Bash/Python diagnostic to parse the task, timer, and control-plane snapshots was also denied.

• Consequently, timer state, pending approvals, active subagents, task-run receipts, and `persistent_chat_log_backlog_status` (`missing_runtime_entries`/`needs_sync`) remain unverified. Do not infer missing conversations, backlog, task settlement, or deployment execution from this limitation or from raw line counts.

Suggested robustness fixes

1. Expose one role-aware read-only control-plane report covering tasks, timers, approvals, subagents, observability, delivery receipts, and backlog fields.

2. Make generated packet aggregation age-filter historical actions/notices and derive latest-message receipts from the source log; do not repair generated packets directly.

3. Before automated Telegram deployment, require durable controller acceptance, active-claim/drain, service reconnect, topic ownership, and MCP-schema-version receipts.

Maintenance result

• Replaced this checkpoint with the completed report and refreshed `recent-topics.md`.

• No curated-memory edit or curated-memory proposal; no task proposal; no findings/hypotheses/actions/notices JSONL append.

• No native or async subagent was used.

• No reload, backend replacement, deployment, approval request, or generated/perpetual-log edit was performed.
