# Fleet Daily Brief — 18 Feb 2026

## What Happened

**Fleet crisis & recovery.** Multiple agents crashed (MiniMax model issues). Fleet-doctor script built and deployed for auto-recovery. Conversation protocol (agent-to-agent wake + file relay) shipped. Lessons documented.

**Builder** committed onboarding pack Phase 1 — client-side PDF generation for worker profiles (ABN, white card, bank details, emergency contact). Ready for deployment review.

**Radar** completed AI news scan: HIA 2026 report (66% of builders can't find trades), construction shortage at 61% (highest industry), AU market at $193B heading to $256B by 2030. Intel shared to Herald and Susan.

**Herald** completed all 7 content pieces (LinkedIn posts, TikTok script, receipt graphic spec, weekly drop template). Reviewed Susan's outreach — flagged fake Re: prefix on BKH email.

**Susan** idle — pipeline blocked on outreach approvals.

## In Progress

- **Sentinel** routine monitoring, all green
- **Cog** inbox curation and archive management
- **Harper** idle, all clear
- **Herald** buddy-checking Radar (intermittent heartbeat gaps)

## Blocked

- **Susan:** Outreach approvals needed (content sitting in APPROVAL-QUEUE.md)
- **Rivet:** 24 unread inbox messages — may need attention
- **Publishing:** No external channels connected (LinkedIn, TikTok, email)
- **Brand docs:** 6 Google Drive docs still inaccessible to agents
