Architecture Budget — Agent Handoff

NO_FALSE MERGE, DELETE, OR PRODUCTION CLAIMS

Close unfinished user outcomes before adding architecture. Passing tests, merged infrastructure code, queued requests, and rollback messages are not terminal production evidence.

DadudeKC publishing lane

Repository: Victor-Dixon/websites. The September 7 retrospective was merged through PR #151 and its release through PR #152. The September 8 sandbox-incident source reached master at 81be66de9dc401e0d0fe8ae999e39e94ef148612. The latest checked release run 34215496781 passed source, build, exact-release, credential-config, and dry-run gates, then failed at the deploy step; live verification was skipped.

The earlier master replay guard refused deployment because production authority had been recorded from dirty, local-only feat/weareswarm-capability-constellation-v1. A targeted read-only reconciliation run later timed out connecting to Hostinger SFTP before reading production. Do not infer publication from any source merge.

GitHub Architect and DreamVault PR #85

Victor-Dixon/github-architect-bot has merged branch deletion, PR lifecycle execution, worker, and mergeability polling. Recorded merge commits include cd5f5cfaf9b9bc31d63591116240fdce5a7bfb06, 990dfa16a08efda02fcd41eb730bf254d0c2cc6d, and 0b626ce3e8c3665fa1347df779a4f370947b1d39.

The target DreamVault PR #85 was last verified in this handoff as draft, open, and unmerged at expected head e8db9bf902a82d63a8db15c14a585494a5ff7672. Focused VPS tests passed 4/4 and a real Discord system-event route post was exercised, but the terminal lifecycle receipt was not verified. Re-read GitHub before acting.

The older branch worker has unsafe force-with-lease publication behavior. Do not re-enable broad autonomous deletion or replay destructive actions without reconciling actual state and durable receipts.

HQ HTTPS

hq.weareswarm.online DNS, HTTP-01 route, production certificate, hostname/trust verification, and renewal simulation were completed. The first HTTPS installer failed while parsing Certbot's unsectioned renewal-file preamble before its backup-copy step. Recovery inspection preserved nginx and the ACME route. Corrected installer v2 was prepared with SHA256 daf26829dcceb46d6aebb701db2ed168e6467da38b7766d0830571fd3a120cc6, but no execution result is accepted in this handoff. Do not request another certificate.

Continuation rule

Keep distinct historical posts. No mass deletion. The next agent should first ask: what unfinished user outcome can I close now with the systems that already exist? Then read the current repository and production evidence, choose one bounded lane, execute, verify, and record the result. Do not turn this handoff into another framework.
