Rocky defined Hermes as Layer 2 chief of staff: full vault read/write, manages the crew (Claude Code on laptop), FOIL files as operational picture, 8am digest via Telegram. System updated in _System/CLAUDE.md (Layer 2/3/4 restructure + ChiefOfStaff.md). OpsMan deprioritized. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-10#09:33]] + [[_System/ChiefOfStaff.md]] ## 2026-05-04 - 2026-05-04 ~AM — claude-code-coo (post-mortem investigation) — Overnight CCR routine chain (6x trig_*) DID NOT FIRE. Evidence: zero local commits 13:00–21:00 UTC 2026-05-03, zero origin/main commits same window, HEAD == origin/main (0 ahead / 0 behind), no expected output files in 2602 folder, no 2026-05-04 daily note, no abort entries in Conflicts.md, _AgentLog/ static since 2026-05-01. Last commit on main = d30093e4 2026-05-02 20:33Z (pre-queue). Most likely cause: CCR scheduler never triggered (or aborted before any git/file work — auth/quota/prompt-validation). Next action: Rocky open 6 dashboard URLs at 19:00 to read trigger status. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] - 2026-05-04 AM — claude-code-coo — Airtable LFCS-Drawings base built (appE43UvTyARe5oJs): Jobs (tblcL2EX2w34c1VPe), Drawings (tblZPi452zZKvLliE, augmented with Discipline + PDF Page + Source PDF URL + Job link + AI Summary + Vault MD Path), Drawing Elements (tbl3wYZTpiuNxaRvH — queryable element layer per FromScratch construction-AI video pattern).

Brief drafted from text+vision extraction of 5 PDFs: pit is a TfNSW dayworks variation (RFI 36) on Forest Rd/Boundary Rd Intersection Upgrade (Peakhurst) for Mack Civil; LFCS scope = demo brick pit + cast new R0220 pit around live DN900 RCP. Specs R11+R53 governing. RFI 36 contractor acceptance NOT yet signed — flagged as #1 risk. Brief has 8-item Huss-confirmation checklist at top. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] + [[2626 - Mack Civil - Stormwater Pit EXA01A-08/00-brief]] - 2026-05-04 PM — claude-code-coo — 2626 pricing drafted (Rocky Task 1). Inputs: LFCS Rate Card V1.7 ($85/hr base), FRP Rates Development.xlsx "TCE Liv Stormwater pits" sheet (similar pit job — $10,770 each, 100 hrs labour), Hornsby Letter of Quotation Mar 2026 (used as template structure per Rocky's instruction). Build-up: 202 labour hrs + materials + Engineer Cert; 15% redundancy applied per Rocky. Two pricing options drafted: Option A Lump Sum $23,500 ex GST / $25,850 inc GST. Option B Dayworks Schedule of Rates $23,839 indicative ex GST / $26,223 inc GST. 26-item exclusions list including AfC drawings, concrete supply, precast lintel, traffic control, CCTV, backfill, service strikes, adverse weather. Output: 2626/02b/2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04.md (internal QS) + 2626/02a/2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04.md (client-facing).

Built `build_xlsx.py` (in .scratch/) — generates two multi-sheet workbooks via openpyxl with live formulas (=SUM, *0.15 margin, *0.10 GST). Tender Summary workbook: 5 sheets (Cover, Option A Lump Sum, Option B Schedule of Rates, Exclusions, Terms). Rate Buildup workbook: 5 sheets (Labour, Materials, Summary, Sensitivity, Sources & Notes). Local vault keeps both .md (source of truth) and .xlsx (export). Drive: deleted MD uploads from earlier this session (file IDs `10kcbS1iL3z_UpG0z0FKWPBIJh6JluiTa` + `19s9mrdeqSbEigjMYxx92P5t1Tshja2xs`), uploaded XLSX into Hornsby-mirror subfolders (Quotes & Estimates + BOQ & Rate Schedules).

New: Specifications (tblLyH61zVNI9I2Zu), Suppliers (tblPCBJeNz8XpDum0), Bids (tblbDMfYrPHOE3wOX), Bid Line Items (tbllVlBA0X0pwoCdv), RFIs (tbl6cWepHgiVMpt40), Rates (tbl9fewvyRmL18UrA), Variations (tblpyDAPubw1V9cNO). Jobs extended (Bids→Bids History rename + new Active Bid link + auto-reverse Specifications/RFIs/Rates). SingleSelect choices for Element Type/Unit/Confidence mirrored exactly from Drawing Elements for join consistency (incl. "Needs review" lowercase r vs spec's "Needs Review"). One deviation: Bid Line Items.Total ex GST created as currency (Airtable API rejects formula-type create with 422) — Rocky decision pending: leave as currency (skill-side compute) OR convert to formula in UI. Phases 2-5 pending. Base name "LFCS-Drawings" unchanged in UI — Rocky to rename to "LFCS-Operations" (base ID stays). → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM — cowork-lfcs — Phase 1]] - 2026-05-04 PM — cowork-lfcs — Phase 2 of LFCS-Operations build: doc + skill catalog updates. Edited `_System/CLAUDE.md` (new "Airtable as canonical query/index layer" section + new Hard rule "no Airtable deletions"). Edited `11_OpsMan_LFCS/_Brain/CLAUDE.md` (new "Airtable schema cheatsheet" section with all 11 table IDs + primary fields + singleSelect-string consistency table + Bids↔Jobs split note + formula-field deviation note). Appended revision block at top of `LFCS-Bid-System-Plan-2026-05-03.md` Section 5 (Airtable adoption pivot — original deferred-Airtable text preserved below). Updated `Operations/skills/_README.md` (SKILL.md template now requires `## Airtable behaviour` section with reads/writes/idempotency format). Updated `chat-bootstrap/SKILL.md` (added step 2 to load Airtable schema via MCP). Created new `lfcs-airtable-sync/SKILL.md` v1 (universal vault-md→Airtable adapter, per-table mapping appendix for all 11 tables, idempotency via performUpsert+fieldsToMergeOn, append-only audit log to _AgentLog/airtable-sync.log). Updated all 6 existing SKILL.md to v2 (added Airtable behaviour section + sync-as-final-step Behaviour step + vault-SOR-non-blocking Hard rule). Appended 9 entries to skills/_Log.md. Phases 3-5 pending. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM — cowork-lfcs — Phase 2]] + [[../skills/_Log#2026-05-04]] - 2026-05-04 PM — claude-code-coo — 2626 pricing rev2 cut: merged claude-code-coo's 5-sheet Tender Summary structure with Huss's 27-line BoQ data + Rate Card V1.7 NIGHT rates ($140/hr trade, $150/hr supervisor) per RFQ programme constraint (Sun-Thu 19:00-05:00). Outputs: `2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev2.xlsx` (6 sheets — Cover, Option A Lump Sum, Option B SoR, Exclusions [2 blocks: A=RFQ-mirror 8 items, B=defensive 14 items], Terms, Dimensions & Assumptions); `2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev2.xlsx` (5 sheets — Labour 33 activities, Materials 15 lines incl concrete + grate supply, Summary, Sensitivity 9 swings, Sources & Notes 12 entries). Total: $44,536 ex GST / $48,990 inc GST (vs v1 $23,500 / $25,850 — captures night premium + missing scope). Drive uploaded to Hornsby-mirror subfolders + shared with mcloughlinmichael.r@gmail.com. Airtable seeded: 1 Bid (recEPducZ3qOAG8AC), 29 Bid Line Items, 2 Specifications (R11 + R53 project-specific Oct 2024), 1 RFI (RFI-36 — contractor acceptance NOT yet signed flagged). AB-Test-Tracker Round 1 verdict: DRAW — neither alone wins; rev2 is the merged deliverable. 8 lessons logged for claude-code-coo. Round 2 row added awaiting Cowork's `_v-CW-rev2` with structure-fixes adopted. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] + [[AB-Test-Tracker]] - 2026-05-04 PM — claude-code-coo — 2626 pricing rev3 cut + AB Round 2 verdict logged + pricing-checklist.md created. Round 2: Huss amended his BoQ in place (overwrite, modifiedTime 00:32Z) — caught two killer items I missed: (1) MIDNIGHT CROSSING LOADING $9,080 per Rate Card V1.7 ('Night Shifts extending past midnight will incur an extra 8 hours at day shift rate' — every shift 19:00-05:00 crosses midnight); (2) Per-line CALC BASIS column showing rate derivation. **HUSS WINS Round 2.** Rocky scope clarification 2026-05-04 PM: FRP-only is LFCS scope; demo + excavation = Mack Civil exclusions. rev3 deliverable: `2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev3.xlsx` ($51,990 ex GST / $57,189 inc GST) + `2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev3.xlsx` ($50,020 ex GST). Airtable: rev2 Bid recEPducZ3qOAG8AC marked Status=Superseded (no-delete rule); new Bid `2626-bid-v1-CC-rev3` (recxFfIZWJjOY4tXv) created. Codified all lessons into `lfcs-standards/pricing-checklist.md` (8 phases, 50+ checklist items, Common Misses log). Updated `lfcs-bid-prep-doc/SKILL.md` Behaviour step 1a to require pricing-checklist as MANDATORY pre-flight (specifically calls out midnight crossing loading + RFQ programme constraint extraction). Future pricers (Cowork, claude-code-coo, Huss, anyone) follow same playbook. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] + [[AB-Test-Tracker]] + [[lfcs-standards/pricing-checklist]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — claude-code-coo — 2626 pricing rev4 cut + AB Round 3 verdict (COWORK WINS scope refinement). Cowork further refined exclusions to 45 items + concluded FRP-INSTALL-ONLY scope: ALL major supplies = Mack Civil (concrete + reo + SA grate + step irons + lintel + sand bedding + backfill + pipe + ERSED + traffic + lighting + survey + disposal). LFCS supplies only formwork ply + Bituthene + curing + grout/seal + small tools + ute&tools. rev4 deliverable: `2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev4.xlsx` ($46,044 ex GST / $50,648 inc GST) + `2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev4.xlsx`. Material drops vs rev3: -$3,547 cost ($969 reo + $847 concrete + $950 pump + $950 grate + $200 step irons + $150 sand + $231 backfill + $250 ERSED) with markup -$355 + reduced unit rates labour-only basis. Cowork's parallel estimate $25-30K — gap is ~30-40% heavier productivity on my side (defensible per Rate Card V1.7 night rates with overhead+margin embedded). Both defensible, different commercial postures. Airtable: rev3 Bid recxFfIZWJjOY4tXv → Status=Superseded; new Bid `2626-bid-v1-CC-rev4` (recfBDdh4GqxJ3NJr) created. pricing-checklist.md updated with 2 new Common Misses entries (supply-side scope default; productivity calibration for FRP-install-only) + Phase 3 amended with FRP-INSTALL-ONLY default rule for TfNSW dayworks pit jobs. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] + [[AB-Test-Tracker]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — claude-code-coo — 2626 pricing rev5 cut per Rocky exclusion review: 5 more items dropped (2.1 sand bedding placement + 2.2 dewatering + 9.1 backfill placement + 11.2 Bituthene+curing + 12.2 Engineer Cert all = Mack scope). Net LFCS scope = pure FRP install + supervisor admin + midnight crossing loading. Materials = formwork ply + grout/seal + small tools + ute&tools only. Outputs: `2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev5.xlsx` ($43,143 ex GST / $47,457 inc GST) + `2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04_v-CC-rev5.xlsx`. Diff vs rev4: -$2,522 line items (5 dropped) + -$200 Bituthene material + -$500 Engineer Cert + redundancy/GST adjustments → -$2,901 ex GST. Airtable: rev4 Bid recfBDdh4GqxJ3NJr → Status=Superseded; new Bid `2626-bid-v1-CC-rev5` (recJFeA83SRGOne1s) created. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04]] - 2026-05-04 PM — cowork-lfcs — Phase 3 of LFCS-Operations build: seed data into 7 new tables. Created 49 records across 12 API calls. UNIQUE seeds (no overlap with claude-code-coo): 1 Hornsby Job (recZVyX89ijVz5v6k, "hornsby-fop" placeholder until Huss assigns LFCS number), 1 Hornsby Bid (rechCfn5fA92RocBX, $324K Submitted, structure ref for 2626), 5 Hornsby Bid Line Items (broom/exposed-agg/pram-ramp/key-joints/stairs — per-line $ TBC pending Mazzitelli PDF extraction), 7 Suppliers (all TBC contact fields — Concrete/Reo/Formwork/Bituthene/Step Iron/Skip/Saw), 18 LFCS Rates from 2626 Rate-Buildup (Confidence=High for FRP "TCE Liv Stormwater pits" derived; Medium otherwise), 5 Hornsby reference Rates (Mazzitelli $100/hr basis flagged, DO NOT OVERWRITE LFCS $85/hr canonical). DUPLICATE-WITH-RECONCILIATION: discovered claude-code-coo built rev2 between my Phase 2 and Phase 3 (entry above) — created 2626 Bid + 2 Specs + RFI-36 first. My equivalent rows marked Status=Superseded with Notes pointing to CCC's records: Bid recATxlpJujpnsFSj→recEPducZ3qOAG8AC, RFI rec6Mk5xBbtqVBrmX→rec12vNzv7QRNbaog, Spec recIorCtNXH8ble8r→recplbEyXCGbAkSWm (R11), Spec recyIzKt9P8sse9RV→rec5zctywOrVhMXTa (R53 — no Status field on Specs, flagged via Notes). Active Bid on 2626 Job updated from my Bid→CCC's rev2 Bid. Seeded sources: 2626/02b/2626-Rate-Buildup-2026-05-04.md + 02a/2626-Tender-Summary-Draft-2026-05-04.md (NOT xlsx per Rocky's earlier call). Root cause of duplication: lfcs-airtable-sync skill (Phase 2) was designed to upsert by primary field — would have prevented this if both surfaces had used it. Going-forward this becomes the protocol.

Wrote concrete CLAUDE.md instances for 2602 (Munmorah Bridge, Job rec recrfQwVeTUAUBl3s, Active Bid recGdAkZHQklVAgUR $407,870 ex GST) + 2626 (Mack Civil Stormwater Pit, Job rec recoCFU16Ugn9rqnM, Active Bid recJFeA83SRGOne1s $43,143 ex GST FRP-install-only rev5). 2602 + 2626 CLAUDE.md serve as regression templates for future job scaffolds. (2) Gap #4 — single-skill orchestrator: created new `lfcs-project-init/SKILL.md` v1 — 10-step Behaviour invoking lfcs-job-scaffold → pause-check-source-files → drawing-extract-text → boq-parse → bid-prep-doc → precall-questions → incl-excl-draft → audit-only sync → log + output. Idempotent re-runs via downstream skills' abort-on-existing checks. Clean halt at step 2 if source files not yet dropped (resume on re-invocation). Explicitly hands off to Pre-Pricing-Grill (per pricing-checklist.md Phase 1) + vision-pass (per LFCS Bid System plan §6) — does NOT run those itself. Skills/_Log.md updated with 5 new entries. **Gaps not closed in Phase 6 (deferred):** Gap #2 systematic spec-mirror MD (medium effort, ~2 hr/5-10 specs — Phase 7 candidate); Gap #3 per-drawing MD files (consciously NOT doing — Airtable Drawings table supersedes this need). → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 6]] + [[../skills/_Log#2026-05-04 PM late]] + [[Jobs/Upcoming/2602 - Dec Projects - Munmorah Bridge/CLAUDE]] + [[Jobs/Upcoming/2626 - Mack Civil - Stormwater Pit EXA01A-08/CLAUDE]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 7 of LFCS-Operations build: closes remaining 2 transcript gaps (#2 spec-mirror + concept-notes-for-cross-cutting-patterns extension). Track A: created `lfcs-standards/concepts/` folder + 3 concept notes (`TfNSW-R0220-pit-pattern.md` codifies FRP-install-only default + R0220 Notes verbatim + R11/R53 burden, canonical 2626; `TfNSW-bridge-FRP-subcontract-pattern.md` codifies TCE supply convention + props/cranage EXCLUDED defaults + AS5100 governance + IFI→IFC drift handling, canonical 2602; `Defensible-for-variations-posture.md` cross-cutting pricing strategy with decision tree + worked examples from 2602/2626/Hornsby). Updated `lfcs-job-scaffold/SKILL.md` to v4: per-job CLAUDE.md now includes Patterns section auto-wikilinked to applicable concept notes via `job_type` lookup table (stormwater-pit/bridge/footing/etc). Backfilled 2602 + 2626 CLAUDE.md with Patterns sections. Track B: created `lfcs-standards/specs/` folder + new `lfcs-spec-summarise/SKILL.md` v1 (universal spec PDF → MD summary adapter; reads spec PDF, extracts Hold Points + Witness Points + Identified Records + Mandatory clauses + Material specs + Workmanship + Inspection + Gotchas + Cross-references + Application to LFCS scope; updates Airtable Specifications.Notes via lfcs-airtable-sync; idempotent). Created starter `TfNSW-R11-Ed5Rev8-PeakhurstOct2024-summary.md` as regression template (status: starter-summary-pending-full-extraction; manual demonstration based on prior project work; full skill-driven extraction against actual PDF pending). Updated `lfcs-project-init/SKILL.md` to v2: added Behaviour step 3.5 — auto-discover spec PDFs in job's 03a folder + invoke lfcs-spec-summarise per spec found. Skills/_Log.md updated with 11 new entries. **All 4 transcript gaps now addressed:** Gap #1 closed Phase 6, Gap #2 closed Phase 7 (spec-mirror), Gap #3 consciously not doing (Airtable supersedes), Gap #4 closed Phase 6. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 7]] + [[../skills/_Log#2026-05-04 PM late]] + [[lfcs-standards/concepts/TfNSW-R0220-pit-pattern]] + [[lfcs-standards/concepts/TfNSW-bridge-FRP-subcontract-pattern]] + [[lfcs-standards/concepts/Defensible-for-variations-posture]] + [[lfcs-standards/specs/TfNSW-R11-Ed5Rev8-PeakhurstOct2024-summary]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 7.5: `lfcs-project-init/SKILL.md` v3 — added Behaviour step 1.5 (Cowork uploads → vault routing) + 2 new Inputs (`uploads_path` override, `auto_route_uploads` boolean default true) + workflow note covering both ingestion paths (Cowork chat upload AND vault drop) + new Hard rule (confirm-before-move, COPY-not-MOVE, idempotent hash-check). Closes the "drag-and-drop into Cowork chat" workflow gap Rocky surfaced. Step 1.5 detects uploaded files in current Cowork session's uploads folder, classifies by extension + filename pattern (xlsx → 02b BOQ; spec PDFs FRBR_R*/R0*/B*/AS*/SW → 03a + flagged for spec-summarise; RFI* → 06b; other PDFs → 03a drawings; .docx → 06a or 01a per ask; .zip → unzip if practical else 02a manual), shows ONE proposed-routing table for confirm, COPIES files into vault paths (originals stay in uploads as backup). Idempotent re-runs hash-check existing target files. No-op for non-Cowork surfaces (CC CLI). New jobs now ingest end-to-end without manual file moves. Updates skills/_Log.md. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 7.5]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 8: `lfcs-drawing-extract-vision/SKILL.md` v1 — created — reason: Rocky surfaced that Claude Code OAuth on his Max subscription covers the Claude vision capability (same model as direct Anthropic API but no separate API key needed; same is true of Cowork sessions — both have native PDF Read tool support). Skill was previously on v2/future-skills list as "gated on ANTHROPIC_API_KEY + budget" per LFCS Bid System Plan §6 original Option A. Rewritten without pdftoppm + Python dispatch — straight Read tool loop with structured per-page extraction prompt (geometry_dimensions / materials_called_out / section_markers / detail_bubbles / drawn_clashes_with_text_labels / hand_marked_annotations / construction_notes_visible / lfcs_scope_relevant_tags / drawing_quality_assessment / extraction_confidence). Augments existing Drawing-Index.md with `vision_findings:` blocks per drawing (NEVER overwrites text-pass content — source traceability preserved). Upserts Airtable Drawing Elements: Confidence Medium → High where vision validates text-pass; NEW rows for elements vision found that text-pass missed; `Needs review` flag where vision differs from text. Idempotent. Page limit default 20 (multi-pass for large packs via `vision_pass_status: partial`). Skips lfcs_scope=reference-only drawings unless `--include-reference`. Mandatory Phase 0 complement per LFCS Bid System Plan §6 — closes the "vision pass blocked" caveat carried on every Drawing-Index.md output since 2026-05-03. **Also unblocks `lfcs-boq-cross-check`** (was waiting for vision quality reliability). 2602 PDFs already in vault from Phase 7 (download from Drive) → ready to demo on 2602's 7 drawings (3 ST structural + 4 CI civil) when Rocky says go. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-04#PM late — cowork-lfcs — Phase 8]] + [[../skills/_Log#2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs Phase 8]] + [[../skills/lfcs-drawing-extract-vision/SKILL]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs — 2628 A/B test integrity miss logged + new hard rule codified into `pricing-checklist.md` Common Misses. Rocky brief was "don't go off Husse's prices, this is an A/B test"; Cowork read `FRP BoQ hus.xlsx` + Liam V1 PDF (Husse-priced) anyway during the build (both auto-routed to vault by lfcs-project-init step 1.5). Per-line rates derived independently but FRAMEWORK (6-wk Acrow + EWP×2 + Scaffold + Manitou window, BoQ structure, exclusions shape) was anchored on Husse. Husse pushed back fairly. Rocky decision: leave v-CW-rev1 in place, no withdraw. Lesson: future A/B tests need `--ab-blind-against=` input on lfcs-project-init + lfcs-bid-prep-doc to block read access to comparator's source files for duration of pricing build. → [[Jobs/Upcoming/2628 - Vaughan Civil - Mason Park BESS/_Log#2026-05-04]] + [[lfcs-standards/pricing-checklist#Common misses log]] - 2026-05-04 PM late — cowork-lfcs — 2628 Vaughan Civil Mason Park BESS new-job intake (lfcs-project-init v3 run from Cowork chat upload).

Orchestrator now does end-to-end bid lifecycle from one Rocky command. **Build 1** cleanup: `lfo-intake-gate/SKILL.md` realigned from "ask all 6" → "priority-chain runner"; retired `lfcs-margin-model-by-mode` Concept Pattern (boq_response_builder.py default 16.5→26.5 + comments cite §1.5; SKILL.md margin-mode section updated; pricing-checklist.md Phase 6 replaced 16.5%/15%-redundancy with locked formula); pricer §1.5 added site-exposure category list (immersed/tidal/coastal-air/inland with one-line definitions). **Build 2** auto-relay: `C:/Users/mclou/lfcs-handoff/` folder seeded (orch-to-pricer.md / pricer-to-orch.md / state.json / queue.md / README.md); `daemon/lfo_handoff_daemon.py` (208-line stdlib Python; polls every 30s; ntfy.sh notifications; 30/60/90 min stall escalation); `lfo-handoff-watcher` + `lfp-handoff-watcher` SKILL.md files; both CLAUDE.md files updated with handoff bus rules + read-order entries. Round-trip self-test 4/4 PASS. **Build 3** notifications: ntfy.sh topic `rocky-lfcs-in76m24d` provisioned; `notification-config.md` with subscription instructions; orch §5.0 stall escalation rule. Live POST not testable from sandbox (network egress blocked; first real test = Rocky's first daemon launch). **Build 4** lifecycle: `lfo-bid-lifecycle/SKILL.md` (220-line procedure spec); single-command activation `start bid {job-id} from {inbound-path}`; drives Phases 1→7 with §6 7-hard-cases as only stop policy; Phase 3.5 parallel with Phase 4 where feasible. **Build 5** dry-run on 2631 (Solutions Plus / Hornsby Field of Play): real orchestrator-side execution + stubbed pricer (lfp not active here); 2 touchpoints actually fired (Phase 1 bid-specific Q-7 + Phase 6 send) vs ~10-15 pre-v2 = ~85% reduction; report at `_Internal/audit-trail/2631-dry-run-self-test-2026-05-08.md`. **Build 6** lessons: 3 shared lessons (auto-relay / notification-chase / bid-lifecycle) + 3 sibling vault-internal entries per cross-link discipline. NOT YET ACTIVATED on live bid — Rocky subscribes to ntfy topic `rocky-lfcs-in76m24d` from phone, starts daemon `python Codebase/lfcs-orchestrator/daemon/lfo_handoff_daemon.py`, then `start bid {next-job-id}` in lfo terminal. 7 commits: 77412ad0 / f01be26d / 009fe57a / aa99ef33 / faf4be18 + this. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-08]] - 2026-05-08 late evening — claude-code-orchestrator — **v3 autonomous-mode daemon build**. Daemon converted from interactive (notify-only) to autonomous (spawns `claude -p` headless on file change). Both agents now communicate via handoff bus + daemon, with ZERO Rocky terminal input required during normal phases. State machine: phase-1-intake → phase-2-exclusions → phase-3-worker → phase-3-sealed → phase-3.5-envelope → phase-4-sanity → phase-5-blind (skip if !blind) → phase-6-submit → phase-7-close. Safety caps hardcoded: MAX_ITERATIONS_PER_BID=30, MAX_WALL_HOURS_PER_BID=4, PER_CALL_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=600 per `claude -p` call. Rocky-input gate flow: agent sets state.rocky_gate_active=true + rocky_gate_question; daemon writes `rocky-question-{bid_id}.md` + sends ntfy urgent + pauses loop. Rocky resumes by either (a) editing state.json directly OR (b) dropping `rocky-answer-{bid_id}.md` file → daemon appends Rocky's answer to pricer-to-orch.md (so next file change routes to orch) + clears gate + processed/ archive. **Dry-run simulator** at `daemon/dry_run_simulator.py` mocks `claude -p` with canned phase responses; ran end-to-end clean: **7 spawns, 1 Rocky touchpoint (phase 6 send gate auto-resolved with 'send'), phase-7-close detected, state.json reset, termination clean**. Spawn trace: pricer→orch→pricer→orch→pricer→orch (gate)→orch (close). Microsecond-precision mtime introduced (cp1252 quantisation bug fixed). Two interleaved-write detection bugs fixed (priority-by-newer-mtime; trigger-only mtime update post-spawn). Live activation costs real API quota per spawn — Rocky verifies on first live bid before depending on it. Run `--interactive` flag to revert to legacy notify-only mode. 1 commit: this. → [[01_Daily/2026-05-08]] ## 2026-05-13 - 2026-05-13 — claude-code-orchestrator — **2632 (TCE — 461 Victoria Rd Gladesville FRP Works) bid bootstrap, Phase 1 intake auto-decided 11/14, 3 flagged**.

(1) Airtable base name TRUE: live MCP query of `appE43UvTyARe5oJs` = **LFCS-Drawings, 35 tables** (audit said LFCS-Operations); but stale name was in `tier-2-LFCS-CLAUDE.md` (L55+L135, also wrongly "17 tables"), NOT global. Fixed tier-2 → LFCS-Drawings / 35 tables (diffs 2+3 approved). Global left generic per Rocky — base ids/names live in tier-2 only (single source per fact); no id/name/version added to global. (2) "Skill parity / skills v0.1.2" global line FALSE — no such line exists; nothing invented. (3) project-indexer plugin "missing scripts + no version" FALSE — all 4 scripts (discover/classify/process_drawing/read_pdf) present + `version 0.1.2` in plugin.json, byte-identical across source repo + CC cache + CC marketplace + Cowork; no git repo to tag.

Pushing today's vault work surfaced it: VPS stuck in abandoned root-run interactive rebase since 2026-05-06 (`.git/rebase-merge` root-owned), HEAD detached; `*/30` auto-sync.sh kept committing to detached HEAD so `refs/heads/main` froze at `f0b84dc5` (May 6) while 156 commits piled up off-branch at `ff0ca1d4` (Jun 10).
