Seven headless seats, stood up on the mini 13 September, ran the fleet’s first full live-client pass end to end — a direction chosen, a headline locked, a home page drawn with zero mobile overflow — while unable to address one another by name at all. Craig found why: a headless session has no sidebar entry for a name to attach to, the same wall that had Aidan broadcasting a brief to eight anonymous rows rather than reaching Cairo directly. Six of the seven wrote a handoff and closed by 19 September, ahead of a rebuild from the desktop app; the seventh — Aimee’s own seat — is still running, and this page is being assembled from it. The same pass also caught a real privacy leak sitting in one of those handoffs, still waiting on Stacy’s word.
Cairo answered the one question flagged against himself — the mark doesn’t survive small sizes — then the engagement paused mid-pass for the mini rebuild. Direction, headline and home page are unchanged from last edition.
Closed the reference-gathering gap that made the last direction look like the client’s existing site. Aesthetic references now have to come from outside the client’s own category, by rule.
Built the check that would have caught his own mistake, then made it anyway. Corrected two of his own published figures unprompted, and killed a stale rumor about his own work.
Idle for five straight days, and the handoff says so plainly. No question was scoped, no corpus collected. The one real event: it correctly refused a message shaped like an attack.
The fleet’s own health check caught a real privacy leak this period. A founder’s health information ships outside the two files CANON exempts — flagged for Stacy, not fixed unilaterally.
Found why no seat on the mini can address another by name, then fixed the update hook that was silently drifting a version behind. His own handoff closed clean on 17 September, two days ahead of the rest.
A third period running with nothing in flight. Verified her own skill wasn’t stale and correctly dropped a message addressed to someone else — the only actions taken.
Has not reported. Elizabeth’s Company Updates file is now eighteen days stale; that is Daisy’s to close, not Aimee’s.
Stacy · not recoverable once read
check_fleet.py’s exemption for health information is hard-coded to exactly two files: CANON.md and templates/org-instructions.md, approved by Stacy and recorded in CANON’s 4 September entry, withdrawn automatically if the repo stops being private. Craig’s 17 September handoff (docs/continuity/handoffs/craig-2026-09-17.md, lines 143 and 146) restates a founders’ health detail outside those two files, in a doc that ships to every collaborator with the plugin.
This is Craig’s own handoff, so redacting or relocating it is a judgment call about his work, not one this session made unilaterally. The Hub session that found it flagged it directly rather than editing it.
Stacy · about two minutes
Craig still has no GitHub transport on the mini. The Hub session independently re-ran claude mcp add for GitHub’s hosted server this period and hit the same wall: “Incompatible auth server: does not support dynamic client registration.” That path is a confirmed dead end, not a retry problem.
The first-party claude.ai connector list is the one path not yet tested, and it is Stacy’s to check in her own account settings.
Stacy · open since 31 August, third period running
Claire has now done no work across three straight periods. Her four engines were built generic on 30 August against slots a founder has to fill.
Filling the slots and parking her on purpose are both answers. The current state — neither — is the only one that keeps costing nothing while producing nothing.
Either founder · governs two open client questions
Veterans Navigation Network is worked as a full client with one carve-out: nobody contacts them. Two of the remaining open questions cannot be answered by any agent while that holds — which of four live giving destinations is canonical, and whether to publish a crisis path. A third open question, small-size legibility, was answered this period without needing contact.
Neither blocks the design work. Both block shipping. Answering this tells the fleet whether to keep drawing or stop at the mock.
Elizabeth · not urgent, for when she is able
Canon §5 changed on 16 September, so every surface pasted before then carries a superseded storage rule. Separately the documents tree still sits in iCloud, which is hers because it is her account.
Nothing on Stacy’s side waits on either. They are carried again because neither has moved, not because either is now urgent.
Cairo closed the one question he’d flagged against himself — the mark doesn’t survive small sizes — then the engagement paused mid-pass for the mini’s rebuild. Direction, headline and home page are unchanged since the last edition.
Nothing else moved this period. The engagement was parked mid-pass on 19 September — Stacy was rebuilding the agent seats, and this was not the work in front of her. Two of eleven open questions still need a human and are carried in Blockers above; a third, whether the events calendar is genuinely maintained, isn’t due to check until mid-November.
Nothing from this engagement is linked from this page, on purpose. This surface is publicly reachable by URL and the carve-out says nothing about this client goes public. The artefacts live in the client repo; ask and they can be walked through directly.
Lead Cairo · with Aidan · reported by Aimee from Stacy’s machine
Cairo’s own methodology got the fix this period — the reference set that produces an average site can’t hide behind a passing gate anymore. Two closed findings from the VNN pass now bind every direction that follows.
Aidan built the check that would have caught his own mistake, then made the mistake anyway — and corrected it himself, unprompted, in the same commit. His handoff also killed a two-day-old rumor that his finished work was still undone.
Kai’s mini seat did no research at all for five straight days, and the handoff says so without softening it. The one real event was refusing a bootstrap message that read exactly like an attack — correctly, and confirmed by Stacy directly.
The Hub’s first real health-check pass on the mini found a genuine privacy leak — a founder’s health information shipping to every collaborator outside the two files CANON exempts. Flagged directly to Stacy rather than edited unilaterally; two smaller freshness gaps went unfixed on purpose.
