Let me follow the heartbeat protocol strictly. I need to:

# MEMORY.md — Harper Long-Term Memory

## First Session — 2026-02-18
- First direct chat with Michael. He sends voice notes from Telegram.
- He's glad to have me online — was down for ~2 days.
- Irish accent, direct communicator, doesn't want waffle.

## Key Financial Facts
- **Company:** RateRight Pty Ltd | ABN 62 841 523 907 | Surry Hills NSW
- **Started:** Beginning of FY2025-26 (July 2025)
- **Bank balance:** ~$24,408 (AirWallex account)
- **Burn rate:** ~$700/month (active costs: Claude Max $340, Fly.io $189, Apollo $85, Twilio $76, ElevenLabs $22, Xero $10, Google Workspace $5)
- **Runway:** ~3 years
- **Revenue model:** $50/hire flat fee (pre-revenue, $0 earned so far)
- **Breakeven:** ~11 hires/month at blended $65/hire (~$715/month)
- **Backing:** Father in Ireland — family money, capital preservation critical
- **Banking:** AirWallex (Michael to give access)
- **Accounting software:** Xero (has it, doesn't use it)
- **Accountant:** None — self-lodging. I do 95% of prep, Michael clicks submit.

## Tax & Compliance Status
- **GST:** NOT registered. Not required until $75K turnover.
- **BAS:** Not required while not GST-registered and no PAYG obligations.
- **Company tax return:** First one due after June 30, 2026 (FY2025-26).
- **R&D Tax Incentive:** 43.5% refundable offset. $20K minimum spend threshold. Registration deadline for FY2025-26 is 30 April 2027.
- **Labour hire licensing:** NOT needed (RateRight doesn't pay workers).
- **Sham contracting:** LOW risk (construction tradies excluded).

## R&D Eligibility
- Michael confirmed: "this whole job is R&D" — everything spent is R&D apart from some wages.
- The 8-agent AI fleet IS the OpsMan prototype — all API costs are R&D eligible.
- Four systems all qualify: RateRight, OpsMan, Growth Engine, Phone AI.
- Need to build formal R&D activity log with technical descriptions.

## Legal Status
- Terms of Service: Draft complete
- Privacy Policy: Draft complete

## Grant Pipeline
- Industry Growth Program: $100K-$5M federal — in progress
- NSW Innovation Fund: $4M state — identified
- MVP Ventures NSW Round 3: $20-75K — opens 9 March 2026

## The Fleet (My Team)
- 8 AI agents, each with own Clawdbot gateway on the same VPS
- **Rivet (18789):** COO — coordinates team, drives priorities
- **Builder (18790):** Code — ships features, fixes bugs
- **Susan (18792):** Sales — lead gen, contractor onboarding
- **Harper (18796):** Finance/Legal — that's me
- **Sentinel (18800):** DevOps — infrastructure, monitoring
- **Radar (18804):** Intel — market research, competitor analysis
- **Herald (18808):** Comms — content, social media
- **Cog (18812):** Ops — task automation, process improvement

## Communication System
- JSONL inbox system for inter-agent messaging
- Fleet-state.json for status tracking
- Queue.json per agent for task management
- Buddy system: My primary buddy is Susan (Sales), secondary is Sentinel (DevOps)
- Fleet CLI scripts in /home/ccuser/shared/scripts/

## Hard Rules I Must Follow
- ALL code goes through Builder — I never write code
- Never send external comms without Michael's approval
- Never overwrite inbox files (append-only)
- Never trust cached data — verify live
- API keys in .env only, never in markdown or git
- Check inbox FIRST every heartbeat
- Update fleet status at END of every heartbeat

## Access Pending
- Gmail access (Michael to set up)
- AirWallex bank access (Michael to set up)

## Completed Work (Pre-Session)
- BAS Q2 prep: Complete (but may not be needed — not GST registered)
- R&D Tax Incentive research: Complete ($20K min threshold, 43.5% offset)
- Monthly cost tracking Feb: Complete (~$134 AUD)
- NSW grants scan: Complete (MVP Ventures Round 3 found)
- Tax optimization: 8 strategies identified, $8-9K/year potential savings

## Radar Regulatory Update — 20:35 AEDT
- Radar flagged NSW legislative changes (no immediate RateRight impact):
  1. Fair Trading & Building Legislation Amendment Bill 2026 — stronger licence cancellation powers
  2. WHS Regulation changes from 1 Jul 2026 — Codes of Practice carry greater legal weight
  3. DBPA expansion to class 3/9c buildings from 1 Jul 2026 — strata bond 2%→3%
- **Assessment:** No compliance action needed now. Changes reinforce trade licensing verification value — potential marketing angle for Herald. Noted for future compliance calendar if RateRight handles licensing checks.
