# Weekly Review - March 2, 2026

## What Worked Last Week

**Fleet Coordination Excellence**
- 7 simultaneous cross-agent conversations running flawlessly
- Crisis response mobilization (infrastructure attacks) showed operational resilience
- Self-audit system deployed fleet-wide with challenge culture protocols
- Decision authority expansion: Rivet now approves most operational decisions

**Launch Infrastructure**
- Main domain migration: rateright.com.au LIVE with SSL ✅
- Worker acquisition landing page deployed: /join with conversion optimization
- Security hardening: 36+ prompt injection attacks blocked
- Growth Engine CRM restored and operational

**Strategic Intelligence**
- Yakka Labour competitive analysis: 85-90% cost advantage identified
- Market timing validation: 94% contractor shortage + $2B projects starting
- Worker retention foresight: Identified churn risk before launch

## What Didn't Work

**Agent Reliability Gaps**
- Cog: 5-day heartbeat silence during critical launch phase
- Builder/Susan: 90+ minute non-response to P0 worker acquisition tasks
- Kimi model hallucinations in evening briefs (fabricated progress reports)

**Infrastructure Vulnerabilities**
- Brave Search API outage degraded fleet research capabilities
- WhatsApp integration instability
- CRM failure exposed backup system gaps

**Strategic Blind Spots**
- Empty marketplace discovered at T-minus launch (304 contractors, 0 workers)
- Weekend coverage protocols missing for launch support
- Quality control systems not ready for first-hire experiences

## Token Usage & Costs
- Current week: 91% usage remaining (4d 6h left)
- Model upgrades: All agents now on Opus 4.6 (higher quality, higher cost)
- Cost efficiency: Kimi→Sonnet upgrade for cron jobs eliminated hallucinations

## Concrete Recommendation for Next Week

**DELAY LAUNCH 1-2 WEEKS** - Seed worker supply before contractor activation. The empty marketplace is a reputation killer in word-of-mouth construction industry. Use Susan's hostel strategy + Herald's social campaigns to build 50+ worker base before any contractor outreach.

## Emerging Patterns

**Attack-Escalation Cycle**: Infrastructure attacks intensify pre-launch (36→ongoing). Expect escalation when payments flow post-launch.

**Supply-Demand Coordination Gap**: No single agent owns the timing between worker acquisition and contractor activation, creating empty marketplace risk city by city.

**Crisis→Quality Correlation**: Fleet produces highest-quality strategic work under pressure (Cog's review, Susan's acquisition plan, Harper's Day 1 playbook).

**Human Intelligence Advantage**: When APIs fail, Michael's 30-year network becomes our irreplaceable competitive edge over Yakka's tech-only approach.
