Daily diary: 2026-07-24

One session, two days, four new framework capabilities. This session opened 07-23 morning and wrapped 07-24 — and in between, the obot session framework grew remote control on every agent, a zero-token idea queue with autonomous triage (which promoted its first two requirements before the session even ended), self-pinning sessions, and a --auto wrapup mode that posted this very entry. Meanwhile the autonomy core (#18) merged, the participant-profile stack landed on dev, and the FDA static-charts design was approved.

Work completed

Session framework — Remote Control + Claude Tag verdict (#46). The 👯 remote-tag sibling verified an undocumented but working claude --bg --remote-control combination (background sessions register a bridge and appear at claude.ai/code with inbound control), found the settings key behind the /config toggle, and made RC the default on every session-spawn — with a runbook at obot.agent/docs/remote-control.md. Claude Tag was investigated and ruled out honestly: Team/Enterprise-only, sandbox-per-thread, cannot attach to a running session; Remote Control is the main-session path.

Idea queue, live end-to-end (#48). Discussions enabled on the hub with a pinned Ideas seed (#47); a session-inbox triage skill plus two no-LLM scripts (reminders-to-ideas for the Siri lane, ideas-sweep for the watermark); a design doc on the site; and an ideas-triage Action on hub main — reworked mid-session to headless claude -p after claude-code-action rejected discussion events, actor-gated to @jwildfire with obotclaw courtesy notes for others. First fruits within the session: Ideas #50 and #56 were auto-promoted into requirements #53 (Goal pages) and #57 (homepage refactor).

Sessions that pin and close themselves. The claude agents pin store turned out to be a plain editable file (~/.claude/jobs/pins.json, verified live with @jwildfire); session-init now auto-pins the main session at startup. And session-wrapup --auto (his directive, superseding the draft-only unattended variant that #40 had just landed) now posts the wrapup — diary, changelog, report, standing-grant fixes — without a review checkpoint, carrying the unreviewed marker above and an unchanged grant boundary. This entry is its maiden run. All of the above ships as one bundle in oa PR#42 (draft, awaiting review).

Autonomy core merged (#18). oa PR#40 — goals layer, obot-auto, autonomy-grants at A1, merge-policy + gsm.safety tier — merged by @jwildfire. The maiden A1 run (sv#85) is now unblocked.

participant-profile landed (#45). oa#41 (PPRF matrix) merged; the overnight stack sv#100–103 was combined into a single PR per the new one-PR-per-session preference — sv#105, CI 3/3 green, merged to dev. sv#107 (Pages redirect for closed-PR previews) also merged.

FDA ST&F design approved (#9). Design PR hub#42 merged.

PRs / issues touched

• Merged: oa#40 (--auto core), oa#41 (PPRF), sv#105 (participant profile → dev), sv#107, hub PR#42 (FDA design).
• Opened: hub#46 + #48 (requirements, → Development, 2026q3); hub#53 + #57 (via ideas-triage, → Requirement Gathering, backlog); oa PR#42 (draft — the framework bundle); Ideas #47 (seed), #49, #51, #52, #54, #55 (open), #50/#56 (promoted+closed).
• Closed: sv#100–103 (superseded by the combined sv#105).
• Advanced: board adds + stages + milestones for #46/#48/#53/#57; roadmap changelog 1.11.0.

Blockers / risks

• claude-code-action doesn't support discussion events — the triage Action was reworked to headless claude -p + workflow_dispatch; all runs green since (3 success / 4 intentionally-skipped).
• sv#105 merged to dev, so its Closes lines (sv#53/#91/#98) won't fire until release promotion — expected under the sv branch model, tracked for the release.
• This wrapup ran while 👯 remote-tag was still watching triage runs; anything it does after this entry lands in the 07-24 scratchpad and folds into the next wrapup.

Next session: loose ends

1. oa PR#42 review → merge — the one gate in front of the whole framework bundle (RC spawns, session-inbox + symlink, auto-pin, --auto wrapup canon) (#46/#48/#18).
2. Maiden A1 run — now GO: obot-auto --increment jwildfire/safety.viz#85 (--preflight-only free) (#18).
3. sv post-#105 follow-through (#45): dev evidence state, release-promotion closes (sv#53/#91/#98), sv#87 rot, sv#104.
4. Ideas follow-through (#48): open Ideas #49/#51/#52/#54/#55; shepherd #53/#57 through Requirement Gathering; #51/#52 feed the keynote (#10).
5. Carried: Diary #8 outline (#22) · keynote report (#10) · og app-first rewrite (#34) · release skill (oa#36) · status page (#44) · obot-merge hardening (oa#37) · board hygiene (sv#83–89, oa#32/36/37).

🙋 ToDo

• oa PR#42 review + merge approval (obot-merge lane; oa main approval-tier).
• Maiden A1 trigger: obot.agent/scripts/obot-auto --increment jwildfire/safety.viz#85.
• RC clicks (#46): /config → Enable Remote Control for all sessions; /remote-control in the lead session; optionally delete the rc-*probe sessions at claude.ai/code.
• Idea queue (#48): keep an obot Reminders list; approve the first supervised reminders-to-ideas run.
• Close clicks (carried): gs#44, hub#41, Released-but-open #2/#3/#21/#28/#30.
• Review this entry — posted unattended; comment or edit and the marker comes off.
