Waiting on you
1 release candidate in the review queue and 1 decision waiting — the full ranked queue is the roadmap page.
Waiting longest: the release candidate open.gismo#10 — open.gismo v0.2.0-RC1, since 2026-08-15.
9 config items need your keyboard — counted here, never described here, and cleared on the dashboard.
Counts as of this edition (2026-08-20 06:25 EDT); a deploy refreshes them.

- mergedobot.roadmap merged: D0021 is decided: SafetyCensus stays and is rebuilt, against the recommendation. #277
- req filedRequirement filed: what the fleet spends is measured before it is spent. #275
- req filedRequirement filed: SafetyCensus stays and is rebuilt on metrics and reports — design first. #274
- mergedobot.agent merged: A pull request only he can merge routes itself to the config bucket. #265

- req filedRequirement filed: branch protections, live before any scheduled session runs. #272
- mergedobot.agent merged: A claim is checked on a cadence rather than asserted on the day it was written. #263
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: D0021: make the correction's struck-through quotes easier to read. #270

- mergedobot.agent merged: Watching the dashboard can no longer prevent the dashboard updating. #260
- req filedRequirement filed: the judge can see the constraints it is judging against. #267
- req filedRequirement filed: a decision artifact notices when its own premise expires. #266
- req filedRequirement filed: he answers a decision from the car, by voice, without a screen or an issue number. #265
- mergedobot.agent merged: A doc comment describes the function under it again. #257
- mergedobot.agent merged: The brief names the config items that are actually blocking, and composes nothing out of failed queries. #256
- req filedRequirement filed: a config item's claim is checked on a cadence, not asserted on the day it was filed. #264
- mergedobot.agent merged: A config item as a page he can decide from, not a form he has to decode. #254
- mergedobot.agent merged: The daily brief is one paragraph and one line per item, and a test counts them. #253
- req filedRequirement filed: config items are short local artifacts he can decide from, not a field form. #263
- mergedobot.agent merged: A credential at rest, and a branch preserved on purpose. #250
- mergedobot.agent merged: A commit the identity scan could not parse is unread, not clean (#247). #248
- mergedobot.agent merged: An age that could not be measured is unknown, not 56 years. #245

- mergedobot.agent merged: A failed fetch and an unread PR listing are said out loud. #243
- mergedobot.agent merged: Teach the five-minute sweep to see local-only work. #242
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: Publish the org chart: promote the artifact to a hub page. #262
- req filedRequirement filed: the highest-authority file the agents read has no owner, no history and no review path. #261
- mergedobot.agent merged: The standard lane is the default, and the file everyone reads now says so. #237
- auditRoadmap audit v2.16.1: Whether a decision has been made now has one authority — the artifact page declares its own state next to his words, and the registry and the published index are a generated view and a checked one. Ten of twenty-one… changelog
- mergedobot.agent merged: Two spellings that read as a broken tool rather than as a shape you chose. #235
- mergedobot.agent merged: The briefing carries the six rules a dispatcher kept typing by hand. #233
- mergedobot.agent merged: The Checkout line says what the checkout IS (#231). #232
- auditRoadmap audit v2.16.0: The requirements count stops calling a blocked mechanism drift. Nothing can put an issue on the obot Roadmap board any more — the obotclaw App is refused on a user-owned project and the guard denies the only credential… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.16.0: The queue says it once instead of eleven times. Eleven separate "fix its stage on the board" cards, each proposing a repair no agent can perform, are replaced by a single card naming the cause — and the card that used… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.16.0: The audit stops offering repairs it cannot run. 61 of 98 findings propose a board write; each now says so on the row, in the rail, in the audit fold and in the apply lane, and accepting one is refused before anything is… changelog
- mergedobot.agent merged: A re-export creates no local binding, and the update lane needed one (#229). #230
- mergedobot.agent merged: A merged pull request counts as covered when it names an issue that is itself parented. #227
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: The artifact says whether he decided, and nothing else gets a vote. #259
- req filedRequirement filed: git pushes and commits still go out as him — the lane no token fixes. #260
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: The count says blocked when the board is unwritable, not drift. #258
- req filedRequirement filed: a thing he asked for has a delivery state, and something notices when it goes quiet. #257
- req filedRequirement filed: work that never reached GitHub is invisible to every check we run. #256
- mergedobot.agent merged: A kill this house reports is a kill it confirmed (#223). #224
- req filedRequirement filed: nobody can write to the board — the App is forbidden and the guard denies the only credential that works. #252
- req filedRequirement filed: a kill this house reports is a kill it confirmed — the liveness anchor reports success while the session survives. #251
- mergedobot.agent merged: Two things reach his phone, on a path that was tested as far as it can be. #222
- auditRoadmap audit v2.15.1: The briefing's config line carries its own age once the count is more than six hours old, so last night's number cannot be read as this morning's. The count comes from a file nothing refreshes on a schedule, and the… changelog
- mergedobot.agent merged: The ideas backstop runs without anyone starting it. #221
- mergedobot.agent merged: The fold brings the hub clone up to date before it commits into it. #220
- mergedobot.agent merged: The fault banner is styled on the page it appears on (#215). #219
- mergedobot.agent merged: A day with activity gets its diary entry the morning after, not never. #218
- mergedobot.agent merged: A count is never stated about a source nobody read (#215). #217
- mergedobot.agent merged: 07:00 arrives whether or not anyone is awake, and a stopped clock says so. #216
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: A session record destroyed on 27 July is back, named by its boundary. #250
- mergedobot.agent merged: The dashboard can read the machine it describes again (#206). #213
- mergedobot.agent merged: The day boundary is written again, and its absence stops being silent. #214
- auditRoadmap audit v2.15.0: The briefing exists, at one URL you can bookmark on your phone: /reports/briefing/. Ten lines at most, one line per item, the ask at the front, every line a link you can act on without opening anything else. It always… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.15.0: It is a second view of the queue, not a second computation of it. The same buildItems() that ranks /roadmap.html feeds the briefing, so the two surfaces cannot disagree about what counts as waiting. What differs is that… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.15.0: Config items appear as a count and never as text, which is the rule the local-only guard enforces rather than the rule anyone remembers. changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.15.0: Two things are still owed and say so on the page rather than being faked: the overnight record of what shipped, and the fold's own freshness stamp. Both arrive with the morning fold (obot.agent#202). changelog
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: A config count older than six hours says how old it is. #249
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: The briefing exists, at one URL, in ten lines, with the ask first. #248
- mergedobot.agent merged: A worker is told a requirement is not an approval, and given the command that says what is. #211
- mergedobot.agent merged: A quiet night is provably quiet: the morning fold decides whether there is anything to say. #208
- auditRoadmap audit v2.14.0: A requirement now says whose decision it carries (#215). Two lines at the foot of the body: who authored it, and who approved it — or the literal EMPTY, which means nobody has and is the normal, correct state for work… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.14.0: Approved by holds a citation that resolves, never prose. A decision id (D0018.1) resolves to what was asked, what he said, the channel and the date, by joining the registry's questions to the codes each decision block… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.14.0: The nightly audit gained APPROVAL-UNRESOLVED, which fires when a requirement claims his approval and cannot show it, and PROVENANCE-MISSING for requirements filed from 2026-08-18 with no block. Neither ever demands an… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.14.0: The drafted-by attribution line stops asserting a review. It named the author and then added "and reviewed by @jwildfire" — on 75 of this hub's 113 requirements, none of which carry any record of that review, including… changelog
- mergedobot.agent merged: A blocked state derived from a session's own prose no longer wakes anyone or closes anything (#176, #177). #199
- Mon 17 Aug2026-08-17
- req filedRequirement filed: what the machine may say about itself in public — session names and draft-release titles. #246
- mergedobot.agent merged: The README describes the tabs this page actually has. #196
- mergedobot.agent merged: The dashboard and the hub carry the same four names, in the same order. #195
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: One information architecture, two audiences — the shared spine, and a boundary the build cannot cross. #245
- mergedobot.agent merged: A test fixture is not a role: the launcher stops spawning, and the band stops believing a name (#188). #194
- mergedobot.agent merged: The page says when it restarted, which is what the requirement asked for. #193
- mergedobot.agent merged: Say what the restart rescued him from, not just that one happened. #192
- mergedobot.agent merged: The checkout tracks main, and the consumers that read it restart. #189
- mergedobot.agent merged: The fleet manager is the admiral: prime, admiral and nav. #187
- mergedobot.agent merged: Make the OVERDUE flag clearable, and watch the roles that must exit. #184
- mergedobot.agent merged: Agents tab: a task tag in the row, times on the dates, and one local day boundary. #183
- questionA decision was put to @jwildfire: SafetyCensus() shipped: does it stay as public API, or get deprecated out?. artifact Q&A #235
- decidedDecided: Bringing the autonomy goal up to date. artifact Q&A #228
- mergedobot.agent merged: The fleet manager: the sweep detects, a short-lived agent acts and exits. #170
- mergedobot.agent merged: Make the pinning tests' band marker required, not an optional fallback. #175
- mergedobot.agent merged: Pin agents on the Agents tab, with the standing roles pinned by default. #171
- mergedobot.agent merged: Agents tab: a created column sorted newest first, and the model that ran each agent. #172
- mergedobot.agent merged: The Navigator tab is a metrics dashboard: a selectable period, a repo filter and a goal filter. #165
- req filedRequirement filed: merging is not deploying — the checkout tracks main, and consumers restart when it moves. #243
- mergedobot.agent merged: A test server declines the serve marker instead of taking it. #150
- req filedRequirement filed: does the briefing get read aloud — and at what cost to the words. #242
- req filedRequirement filed: an answer you clicked that nothing applied has to reach someone. #241
- req filedRequirement filed: the session skills the fold replaces — one retirement, five re-homings, and the notes that say so. #240
- req filedRequirement filed: the weekly briefing — the sink that keeps the daily at nine lines. #239
- req filedRequirement filed: the morning fold, and the briefing it produces. #238
- mergedobot.agent merged: The RC banner moves out of his PR body and into the agent-facing rules. #158
- req filedRequirement filed: the org chart — who does what, what each may never do, and which failure created each role. #237
- mergedobot.agent merged: Every dashboard surface renders honestly on a machine with no history. #160
- mergedobot.agent merged: The Agents tab is a table with a filter sidebar, one row per agent. #161
- req filedRequirement filed: the admiral — a triggered manager, so finished work stops sitting and nobody has to remember to look. #236
- mergedobot.agent merged: The orphan check treats a labelled orphan as settled. #164
- mergedobot.agent merged: The merge command is documented as one undecorated command, and guarded. #163
- req filedRequirement filed: one-off tasks — a small fix files against its goal, without a requirement to justify it. #234
- releasegsm.safety shipped v1.1.0. v1.1.0
- mergedgsm.safety merged: gsm.safety v1.1.0 release paperwork. #54
- mergedobot.agent merged: The sweep quotes the deployed build rather than guessing at it. #152
- mergedobot.roadmap merged: The local-build guard fired on its own announcement. #232
- req filedRequirement filed: adversarial review of safetyCensus() — does it stay or go, before v1.1.0 publishes. #229
- mergedgsm.safety merged: NEWS: promote v1.1.0, open v1.2.0 (Upcoming). #53
- mergedgsm.safety merged: gsm.safety v1.1.0-RC1. #52
- auditRoadmap audit v2.13.0: The header carries a version number on every page, and it tells the truth about when the page shipped (#224). @jwildfire, 2026-08-16: "Add a version # on the hub in the header and let me hover to see when it was… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.13.0: The version and the launch time now come from different places, because only one of them can know. The version is this file's newest entry, which stays hand-written. The launch time and commit are stamped by the deploy… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.13.0: When the changelog falls behind what the site ships, the badge says so instead of choosing a half to believe. It is counted in commits touching site/ and scripts/ since this file was last committed, not in hours - the… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.13.0: The badge was on catalog.html and on none of the other ten published pages, including the queue that D0018 had made the front door the day before he asked where the version number was. It now comes from the shared… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.13.0: The Navigator sweep reports the same verdict, read from the published _site/version.json rather than computed a second time from a local clone that is routinely behind the deployed commit. changelog
- req filedRequirement filed: the dashboard's two views, literally — a session table with filters, and a filterable metrics dashboard. #227
- req filedRequirement filed: goal #73 says what it is now — a current body, five workstreams, and a bounded backlog. #226
- Sun 16 Aug2026-08-16
- req filedRequirement filed: every surface renders honestly on a machine with no history — before the move, not after. #223
- req filedRequirement filed: his queue holds exactly three buckets — RC, decision, config — and the remainder is ours. #220
- req filedRequirement filed: the dashboard reads like a news feed, not an audit log — rebuild the sessions and Navigator pages. #218
- req filedRequirement filed: a requirement says whose decision it carries — an agent's inference must not read as his approval. #215
- questionA decision was put to @jwildfire: Scheduled sessions: what is ready, what is not, and what would make it ready. artifact Q&A #222
- decidedDecided: The roadmap page — three directions to react to. artifact Q&A #208
- decidedDecided: The Navigator — how the operating officer works. artifact Q&A #197
- decidedDecided: The session model after obot-prime — five calls. artifact Q&A #158
- req filedRequirement filed: a worker that stops — finished, stalled or dead — wakes the Navigator. #212
- req filedRequirement filed: rebuild the roadmap page on D0018 — the queue in front, the catalog behind. #211
- req filedRequirement filed: the priced usage artifact refreshes on a cadence, or every surface says how old it is. #206
- req filedRequirement filed: a real "since you last looked" — record page views locally, or say plainly that we cannot. #205
- req filedRequirement filed: one information architecture, two audiences — symmetry between the private dashboard and the public hub. #203
- req filedRequirement filed: the roadmap page redesign — a design spike he can react to. #202
- req filedRequirement filed: roadmap discipline is measured — the sweep checks all seven repos, and the audit stops reporting stale. #200
- req filedRequirement filed: the agent roster — every agent with its id, status, cost and roadmap impact. #199
- req filedRequirement filed: no inline bold in artifacts — emphasis is structural, or it is a callout. #198
- auditRoadmap audit v2.12.0: Eleven new requirements on the board, all at Backlog on the 2026q3 milestone: worker close-out checks (#184), worker supervision (#185), surviving compaction (#186), the three demo-301 site-size mitigations (#189-#191),… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.12.0: Seven of those requirements (#184, #185, #186, #192, #193, #194, #195) were not on the board at all until this pass, and three more (#189-#191) sat on it with no stage set - the only board items anywhere carrying an… changelog
- auditRoadmap audit v2.12.0: #184 is now linked under its goal, Goal: increased autonomy in obot.agent (#73). Its close-out had reported the link as made; it had not been. changelog
- req filedRequirement filed: the Navigator as operating officer — asks become requirements, and delivery is judged at closeout. #195
- req filedRequirement filed: every worker agent gets a permanent W0001 identity, allocated once and never recycled. #194
- Sat 15 Aug2026-08-15
- mergedobot.agent merged: The ledger verdict leads, so the status line keeps showing status. #129
- mergedobot.agent merged: Stop committing Python bytecode. #128
- req filedRequirement filed: standing sessions survive compaction — continuous state, an explicit setting, and a silent-loss check. #186
- req filedRequirement filed: the first mate — in-flight supervision of worker agents. #185
- req filedRequirement filed: the worker closeout check — every agent finishes into a PR, a question, or a config request. #184
