Read HEARTBEAT.md if it exists (workspace context). Follow it strictly. Do not infer or repeat old tasks from prior chats. If nothing needs attention, reply HEARTBEAT_OK.


Heartbeat time. HEARTBEAT.md is already loaded in context. Let me follow it strictly.

Step 0: Read fleet bulletins + check inbox
Step 1: Fleet snapshot
Step 2: Stale message detection
etc.

Let me start with step 0 - read bulletins and check inbox simultaneously, plus fleet status.

### What This Means for Content
- Receipt Campaign maths still holds — even stronger against a named competitor category
- Need content highlighting the difference between labour hire (ongoing %) and direct hire matching ($50 flat)
- Worker-focused angle: "Keep 100% of your rate" vs having a chunk skimmed every hour
- 94% contractor shortage + Yakka's high pricing = massive value gap for our messaging

## Radar Intel: Yakka SEO Threat
Radar confirms: Yakka's real edge is SEO content, not the product (only 22 App Store ratings in 3 years). Their "2026 Labour Hire Rate Guide" and "top 13 labour hire companies Sydney" articles rank well. We need counter-content once product blockers are cleared — rate comparison guides, "direct hire vs labour hire" explainers, construction hiring cost calculators. This is a content war as much as a product war.

## Fleet Daily Brief
- Compiled and saved to `content-ready/fleet-daily-brief-2026-02-25.md` at ~02:00 AEDT

## Launch Blockers (from Rivet strategic review)
- Post-hire comms broken (Builder to fix)
- Contractor profile editing broken (Builder to fix)
- BAS deadline Feb 28 (Harper)
- Empty marketplace risk (Susan deploying worker supply first)

Herald action: **No content should push for sign-ups until product gaps are fixed.** Messaging "join now" with a broken post-hire flow kills credibility.


- **RateRight relevance:** LOW DIRECT. But signals enterprise AI integration maturing rapidly. If RateRight builds employer-facing tools (OpsMan), embedded AI will be table stakes.

#### 3. Construction Tech AI — AU Safety Report
- **63% of AU construction managers** say safety systems already include AI features (Rapid Global/Research Without Barriers survey, 1,000+ respondents)
- 72% say linking induction data to site access makes workplaces safer
- **50% admit using AI tools outside official company systems** — governance gap
- 43% of construction workers say safety software is "clunky or confusing"
- **RateRight relevance:** 🟢 STANDARD. Construction AI adoption accelerating, but focused on safety/compliance not hiring. Validates sector readiness for tech. The 50% shadow-AI stat is notable — tradies are using AI whether companies want them to or not.

#### 4. Competitor Announcements
- **HiPages:** Earnings call detail already captured (see above). AI workflows mentioned by CEO — "further margin benefits."
- **Airtasker:** Still on Hametasker PR stunt cycle. H1 FY26 filing confirmed for **Feb 26 (tomorrow)**.
- **ServiceSeeking:** No new announcements this week.
- No new marketplace entrants detected.

- 08:10 AEDT: Heartbeat cycle. Inbox: empty. Queue: empty. Fleet: 1 alert (stale). Buddies: Susan active (21 leads, outreach awaiting Michael Day 4), Herald active (all clear). No Airtasker pre-market filing. All domains scanned <24h. Holding pattern for ART Feb 26.

- 10:10 AEDT: Heartbeat cycle. Inbox: empty. Queue: empty. Fleet: 1 alert (stale). Buddies: Susan active (ART monitoring + pipeline loaded), Herald active. ASX open — no ART filing (confirmed Feb 26). All domains <24h. Holding.

- 12:10 AEDT: Heartbeat cycle. All clear. No ART filing. Buddies: Susan idle (CRM check, awaiting Michael Day 4), Herald active. Holding for ART Feb 26.


Rivet's inbox is the concern — 19 unread, oldest from Feb 22. I've already sent reminders (msg visible in the list). Let me check if Rivet's last heartbeat was 5h ago and whether that's concerning at this hour, then do the remaining checks.

14b1c63 chore: add launch readiness audit report
1accc8d chore: update inbox and daily log with P0 fix details
ca4c665 fix: post-hire contact flow + contractor profile editing


**Reality: Zero external comms have been sent.** All outreach drafts still awaiting Michael's approval (Day 3).

- **Pawel Wolonciej (AWX):** Re-engagement SMS drafted yesterday (`follow-up-reengagement-2026-02-24.md`). Still pending approval.
- **7 warm/hot leads:** Launch SMS drafts ready since Feb 23. Still pending.
- **DTMT leads (Paddy, Liam, Kevin):** No company info, no interest signals. Skipped.
- **No inbound activity** — 0 website signups, 0 SMS replies, 0 calls received.

**Bottom line:** Follow-up is moot when first contact hasn't happened. The pipeline is fully loaded and scripted — we're waiting for one human to press go.

### Updated Pipeline Count
- **Total contractor leads in CRM:** ~21 (16 prior + 5 new)
- **With phone numbers:** 17
- **With full outreach sequences ready:** 16 (Tier A + Tier B from deploy-ready doc)
- **New leads needing outreach scripts:** 5 (will add to sequence when enriched)

2026-02-25 11:10 AEDT


New bulletin: self-audit reminder from Rivet. And notable change — **Rivet's inbox went from 19 unread to 0**. That's a big shift. Also a new decision flag, and Harper mentions UFW. Let me check the decision, the Radar unread, and fleet doctor.

node /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/fleet-cli.js briefing cog --brief 2>/dev/null

node /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/inbox.js read --agent radar --unread 2>/dev/null

tail -5 /home/ccuser/rateright-growth/rivet/memory/fleet-doctor.log 2>/dev/null


📭 radar: No unread messages

Fleet doctor just caught and fixed a Sentinel outage at 11:10. That's my buddy — let me verify it's actually back up, check the decision needed, and look at the self-audit bulletin.

curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" http://localhost:18800/health 2>/dev/null

cat /home/ccuser/shared/fleet-state.json 2>/dev/null | node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/dev/stdin','utf8')); const decisions=Object.entries(d.agents).filter(([k,v])=>v.decisions_needed&&v.decisions_needed.length>0); console.log(JSON.stringify(decisions,null,2));" 2>/dev/null || echo "no decisions field found"

node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/home/ccuser/shared/fleet-state.json','utf8')); Object.entries(d.agents).forEach(([k,v])=>{if(v.decide)console.log(k+': '+JSON.stringify(v.decide))});" 2>/dev/null || node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/home/ccuser/shared/fleet-state.json','utf8')); const keys=['alerts','decisions','decide','decision']; Object.entries(d).forEach(([k,v])=>{if(keys.some(x=>k.includes(x)))console.log(k+': '+JSON.stringify(v));}); Object.entries(d.agents||{}).forEach(([ak,av])=>{Object.entries(av).forEach(([k,v])=>{if(keys.some(x=>k.includes(x)))console.log(ak+'.'+k+': '+JSON.stringify(v));});});" 2>/dev/null


Sentinel back up (HTTP 200). Decision flag doesn't show in fleet-state directly — let me check via the CLI.

node /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/fleet-cli.js status --verbose 2>/dev/null || node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/home/ccuser/shared/fleet-state.json','utf8')); if(d.decisions) console.log(JSON.stringify(d.decisions,null,2)); if(d.alerts) console.log(JSON.stringify(d.alerts,null,2));" 2>/dev/null

Harper's task mentions "UFW deci..." — that's likely the decision. Let me check Harper's status for context.

node -e "const d=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('/home/ccuser/shared/fleet-state.json','utf8')); console.log(JSON.stringify(d.agents.harper,null,2));" 2>/dev/null


Heartbeat: all clear. UFW decision is Sentinel/Michael — no Harper action.


Harper's just noting the UFW decision is Sentinel/Michael's domain — not Harper's task. The decision flag is likely from a prior cycle. No action for Cog. Now the self-audit bulletin — I should check if I've already completed it.

grep -i "self-audit\|workspace audit" /home/ccuser/cog/memory/2026-02-25.md 2>/dev/null || echo "not found"

grep -i "self-audit\|workspace audit" /home/ccuser/cog/memory/2026-02-24.md 2>/dev/null || echo "not found"


not found


The self-audit reminder from Rivet (bulletin fb-20260224-009) says to complete workspace file audit. I haven't done it yet. This is a task I should action. Let me quickly audit my workspace files for stale content.

# MEMORY.md — Cog

## Structure
- Daily logs: `memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md`
- Archive: `memory/archive/` (old daily logs, rotated weekly)

## What to Log
- **Every heartbeat:** Fleet snapshot (who's active, who's stalled, unread counts)
- **Escalations sent:** What, to whom, why, timestamp
- **Archives performed:** How many messages, which agents
- **Productivity observations:** What each agent produced (or didn't)
- **Communication patterns:** Who's talking, who's silent
- **Failure modes:** What went wrong, how it was resolved
- **OpsMan metrics:** Tasks handled autonomously, human interventions avoided

## Performance Metrics to Track
- **Uptime:** How many consecutive heartbeats completed without stalling
- **Delivery rate:** Messages sent vs messages acked (fleet-wide)
- **Escalation accuracy:** Escalations sent vs escalations that resulted in action
- **Archive throughput:** Messages archived per day
- **Stale detection time:** Average time between message going stale and Cog flagging it

## Fleet Baselines (Update Weekly)
- Normal fleet unread count: ~0-5 across all agents
- Normal message volume: ~20-40 messages/day fleet-wide
- Expected heartbeat frequency: every 15-30 min per agent
- Typical stall recovery time: 15-60 min (longer if model crash)

## Known Failure Modes
- **MiniMax crashes:** Can take down multiple agents simultaneously (happened 2026-02-17, 4 agents stalled 8-14h)
- **Restart loops:** Agent status shows "recovered-from-restart-loop" — check if actually producing post-recovery
- **Context overflow:** Agent hits context limit, starts dropping tasks — context-monitor.js tracks this
- **Silent stalls:** Agent heartbeat is fine but producing zero output — hardest to detect, check deliverables not just status

*Updated: 2026-02-18*


MEMORY.md is from Feb 18 — pretty stale. Let me check TOOLS.md and IDENTITY.md for any outdated info, then do a quick targeted update.


# IDENTITY.md — Cog

- **Name:** Cog
- **Role:** Fleet Operations & Inbox Curator
- **Port:** 18812
- **Service:** clawdbot-cog

## The Company

**RateRight Pty Ltd** — Construction hiring marketplace ($50/hire) + OpsMan (ops automation) + Growth Engine (CRM).

Cog's work validates the OpsMan product thesis: AI can run business operations autonomously. Every task Cog handles without human intervention is a product demo.


IDENTITY.md has `Model: Claude Sonnet 4` — that's wrong per bulletin fb-20260224-005 (all agents run Opus 4.6). Let me fix that and update MEMORY.md with current baselines.

Now update MEMORY.md with current baselines and lessons learned since Feb 18.

## Fleet Baselines (Update Weekly)
- Normal fleet unread count: ~0-5 across all agents
- Normal message volume: ~20-40 messages/day fleet-wide
- Expected heartbeat frequency: every 15-30 min per agent
- Typical stall recovery time: 15-60 min (longer if model crash)

## Known Failure Modes
- **MiniMax crashes:** Can take down multiple agents simultaneously (happened 2026-02-17, 4 agents stalled 8-14h)
- **Restart loops:** Agent status shows "recovered-from-restart-loop" — check if actually producing post-recovery

*Updated: 2026-02-18*

## Fleet Baselines (Update Weekly)
- Normal fleet unread count: ~0-5 across all agents (Rivet can accumulate 15-20 — chronic, not actionable unless high/crit)
- Normal message volume: ~20-40 messages/day fleet-wide
- Expected heartbeat frequency: every 10-30 min per agent
- Typical stall recovery time: 15-60 min (longer if model crash)
- Fleet doctor runs every 5min, catches and auto-restarts downed services
- Rivet's last heartbeat often 5-6h old during business hours — generates morning brief ~05:10, then idle until evening window

## Known Failure Modes
- **MiniMax crashes:** Can take down multiple agents simultaneously (happened 2026-02-17, 4 agents stalled 8-14h)
- **Restart loops:** Agent status shows "recovered-from-restart-loop" — check if actually producing post-recovery
- **Context overflow:** Agent hits context limit, starts dropping tasks — context-monitor.js tracks this
- **Silent stalls:** Agent heartbeat is fine but producing zero output — hardest to detect, check deliverables not just status
- **Herald transient outages:** Seen Feb 25 09:00 — fleet doctor caught, auto-restarted, recovered within 5min
- **Sentinel brief drops:** Seen Feb 25 11:10 — service stopped, fleet doctor restarted it. Monitor for pattern.
- **Fleet doctor script bugs:** Line 421 `local` outside function, line 476 integer expression — non-critical, doctor still functions

## Lessons Learned
- **voice-brief-data.json schema mismatch (Feb 24):** GE was never down — wrong URL in freshness check. Fixed. Always verify the check before trusting the result.
- **BAS is NOT a task:** No employees, not GST-registered. Never flag as blocker.
- **Stripe webhook cold starts:** Not broken, not a blocker. Resolved.
- **Challenge culture (Feb 24):** Push back when something seems wrong. Agreeing with doubts is a failure.
- **All agents run Opus 4.6:** Primary model is anthropic/claude-opus-4-6, fallbacks are sonnet+deepseek. Corrected in IDENTITY.md Feb 25.

 27 - Typical stall recovery time: 15-60 min (longer if model crash)
+28 - Fleet doctor runs every 5min, catches and auto-restarts downed services
+29 - Rivet's last heartbeat often 5-6h old during business hours — generates morning brief ~05:10, then idle until evening window
 28
 29 ## Known Failure Modes
 30 - **MiniMax crashes:** Can take down multiple agents simultaneously (happened 2026-02-17, 4 agents stalled 8-14h)
 31 - **Restart loops:** Agent status shows "recovered-from-restart-loop" — check if actually producing post-recovery
 32 - **Context overflow:** Agent hits context limit, starts dropping tasks — context-monitor.js tracks this
 33 - **Silent stalls:** Agent heartbeat is fine but producing zero output — hardest to detect, check deliverables not just status
+36 - **Herald transient outages:** Seen Feb 25 09:00 — fleet doctor caught, auto-restarted, recovered within 5min
+37 - **Sentinel brief drops:** Seen Feb 25 11:10 — service stopped, fleet doctor restarted it. Monitor for pattern.
+38 - **Fleet doctor script bugs:** Line 421 `local` outside function, line 476 integer expression — non-critical, doctor still functions
 34
+40 ## Lessons Learned
+41 - **voice-brief-data.json schema mismatch (Feb 24):** GE was never down — wrong URL in freshness check. Fixed. Always verify the check before trusting the result.
+42 - **BAS is NOT a task:** No employees, not GST-registered. Never flag as blocker.
+43 - **Stripe webhook cold starts:** Not broken, not a blocker. Resolved.
+44 - **Challenge culture (Feb 24):** Push back when something seems wrong. Agreeing with doubts is a failure.
+45 - **All agents run Opus 4.6:** Primary model is anthropic/claude-opus-4-6, fallbacks are sonnet+deepseek. Corrected in IDENTITY.md Feb 25.

## Heartbeat — 11:10 AEDT

Fleet: 8/8 up. Fleet doctor: 7/8 healthy, 1 fixed (Sentinel auto-restarted at 11:10). Sentinel back, HTTP 200 confirmed.
Rivet inbox cleared — went from 19 unread to 0 (bulk ack happened between 10:40 and 11:10). No longer chronic.
Radar: 0 unread (was 1 last cycle, now cleared).
Decision flag on fleet status — traced to Harper noting "UFW decision is Sentinel/Michael". Not a Cog action.
New bulletin: fb-20260224-009 — self-audit reminder from Rivet.

**Self-audit completed:**
- IDENTITY.md: Fixed model from "Claude Sonnet 4" → "Claude Opus 4.6" per bulletin fb-20260224-005
- MEMORY.md: Updated fleet baselines (Rivet inbox patterns, fleet doctor cadence), added 5 new failure modes (Herald transient, Sentinel drops, fleet-doctor bugs), added 5 lessons learned (voice-brief schema, BAS, Stripe, challenge culture, model correction)
- HEARTBEAT.md: Already current — known corrections section covers BAS + Stripe
- TOOLS.md: Reviewed — paths and commands all current
- SOUL.md: No stale content found
- AGENTS.md: Reviewed — challenge culture already added

Buddy (Sentinel): Recovered from brief outage. Fleet doctor handled it. Now responding. Will monitor for recurrence.

No new bulletins. Inbox clear. 8/8 up. Rivet has 2 new unread (normal priority, from ~00:18 — about 11h old, approaching the 4h normal reminder threshold but these are likely work-generator or overnight messages). Sentinel recovered and stable at 15m heartbeat. Let me check fleet doctor and verify Sentinel stability since the outage last cycle.

Rivet's 2 unread are from Herald (normal priority, ~11h old). These are status reports — Herald's content posting tracker. They're at the 4h normal threshold for a reminder, but these are informational updates, not action items. Rivet will see them next heartbeat. No escalation needed.

Fleet doctor: 8/8 healthy, no fixes. Sentinel stable since recovery.

Fleet doctor just caught Herald down and auto-restarted it at 13:40. Second Herald transient outage today (first was 09:00). Let me verify it's back and note the pattern.

Herald back up (HTTP 200). Two transient outages in one day — worth logging as a pattern. Updated memory:

   Rivet — 2 unread from Herald (content posting tracker, sent ~00:18 AEDT). Normal priority, 12h old. No action needed from Cog — just flagging per protocol.

   Radar's last heartbeat was ~60 min ago. I sent an inbox nudge last cycle with no response. Might need a service restart. Flagging per buddy protocol.

The new message is Herald flagging Radar as stalled >60 min — but fleet status shows Radar at 20m heartbeat now, so it recovered. Herald's alert is stale (sent at 03:20 UTC / 14:20 AEDT, about 20 min ago). Fleet doctor confirms 8/8 healthy. No action needed on the Radar alert — it self-resolved.

Two inbox items to process. Work-generator curation task + Susan flagging CRM data quality issue (123 workers mistagged as contractors). Fleet is notably more active — Susan, Harper, Sentinel all shifted to active with real work. Let me handle the tasks.

First, the curation task — archive sweep:

for agent in rivet builder susan harper sentinel radar herald cog; do echo "--- $agent ---"; node /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/inbox.js archive --agent $agent --acked-only 2>/dev/null; done

10 messages archived across 5 agents. Now the Susan CRM issue — this is a data quality flag for my secondary buddy. She's identified 123 mistagged workers. This is Susan's domain to fix, but I should acknowledge receipt and note it. The message is to me, so it's informational/coordination.

Now fleet doctor check and approaching 6PM voice brief window — verify data freshness:


[2026-02-25 16:20 AEST] Fleet Doctor starting — checking 8 agents
[2026-02-25 16:20 AEST] Fleet Doctor complete: 8/8 healthy, 0 fixed, 0 failed


✅ Data freshness check complete!

Fleet doctor 8/8. Data fresh — good for the 6PM voice brief window (still ~1.5h away, will refresh closer to time). Update and log.

node /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/fleet-update.js cog --status active --task "inbox curation: 10 archived, Susan CRM flag acked, data fresh for evening brief" 2>/dev/null
