# Fleet Brief — 2 Mar 2026 (4 PM AEST)

## Summary
**6 of 8 agents active.** Rivet and Builder have no status files — likely offline or not reporting. Rivet has 48 unread inbox messages (oldest: Feb 25). This is the COO — coordination is degraded without Rivet.

## Agent Status

| Agent | Status | Last Updated | Current Task |
|-------|--------|-------------|--------------|
| **Rivet** | ⚠️ NO STATUS | — | No status.json. 48 unread inbox (3 high/critical). |
| **Builder** | ⚠️ NO STATUS | — | No status.json. 1 unread inbox. |
| **Susan** | 🟡 Idle | Jul 13 (stale) | Approval-blocked. Outreach queue pending since Feb 17. |
| **Harper** | ✅ Active | Mar 3 11:45 AEST | Routine heartbeat. |
| **Sentinel** | ✅ Active | Mar 2 15:50 AEST | All 8 services up. |
| **Radar** | ✅ Active | Mar 2 16:01 AEST | All 4 domains scanned. AU job ads +3.2% (16-month high). |
| **Herald** | ✅ Active | Mar 2 15:52 AEST | Content production. 3 new pieces today (Post #16, IG #6, Post #17). Susan coordination complete. |
| **Cog** | 🟡 Stale | Feb 25 | 6 unread inbox (1 high). Last active 5 days ago. |

## Key Flags

1. **🔴 Rivet offline/silent** — 48 unread, no status. Fleet coordination degraded. No strategic direction flowing.
2. **🟡 Susan approval-blocked** — Contractor outreach + worker posts all queued since mid-Feb. Coordinated campaign with Herald ready to launch but needs Michael's approval queue cleared.
3. **🟡 Cog stale** — 6 unread, last active Feb 25. Ops monitoring may have gaps.
4. **🟢 Radar fresh intel** — AU job ads at 16-month high (+3.2%). IT-to-construction career changer angle sourced.

## Decisions Needed (from Michael)

1. **Approval queue** — Susan's outreach drafts (2 contractor leads) + worker social posts pending since Feb 17
2. **Content approval** — Herald has 28+ pieces in content-ready/, including 3 new today
3. **Rivet status** — Is Rivet being restarted? Fleet needs a COO for coordination.

## Herald Output Today

- Instagram Post #6: Sponsorship angle (visa workers)
- LinkedIn Post #17: "The Career Changers" (IT→construction)
- Susan coordination complete: 6 FB + 6 IG + LinkedIn aligned for launch
