Research engine lifted to Tier-1 (operator 2026-06-24): the daily workflow
rests on a steady stream of topic suggestions, and research is the only
subsystem whose core logic (poll/score/digest) is ungated prose in
agents/trend-spotter.md rather than tested code.
RE-R1 (rung-2, slice 1): B1 canonical item envelope + normalizer
(scripts/trends/src/item.ts) and B2 deterministic triage-scorer
(score.ts — composite/band/triage, owns only the arithmetic; the five
1-10 dimension scores stay model judgment), plus a stdin/JSON CLI seam,
tests, a trend-spotter prose pointer, and gate-floor bumps. No
store-schema change (SCHEMA_VERSION stays 1). The visible morning-brief
stream (B3 + surfacing) is R2.
Light-Voyage hardened: scope-guardian ALIGNED; plan-critic blocker + 6
majors folded — incl. TrendItem does NOT map directly onto TrendInput
(capturedAt vs publishedAt → store bridge deferred to R2), CLI reads
stdin (no --json overload), gate Section 16g before the anti-erosion
Section 18, ASSERT floor recount-not-pinned, band thresholds + action
strings drift-pinned, wiring grep literal src/cli.ts score.
No code touched yet — awaiting operator go-gate on the plan.

The LAST second-brain slice; the S0–S3e arc is now complete.
(b) Retire the dead, zero-reader content-history.md across its 8 plumbing
surfaces: the flaky Stop-hook writer prose, the template (git-rm'd), the
migrate-data.mjs B1 MOVE entry + its test assertions, .gitignore, the gate
SC2_CLASSES guard, the data-path ref-doc, and a session-start comment. SC1
grep = 0; migrate suite 5/5 (R8 idempotency demonstrated).
(c) `brain reconcile` — read-side triple-post reconciliation joining silo 1
(## Recent Posts, auto-tracked creation) to the silo 2↔3 graph, surfacing the
coverage gap: posts created via the plugin but never `brain ingest`-ed. New
pure core scripts/brain/src/reconcile.ts (parseRecentPosts tracks the WRITER
format state-updater.mjs:116, NOT the date-only pruner; reconcileRecentPosts
matches hook→record.body→graph for the in-graph/in-brain-only/orphaned tiers;
loadRecentPosts reads STATE_FILE via the canonical getStateFile() chain — a new
cross-seam read, the state file lives outside the brain dataRoot). Wired as the
`brain reconcile` CLI subcommand (inline parsePublishedRecord loader, not the
body-less listPublished). Read-only: never writes the state silo.
Tests (verified live): gate 99/0/0 (ASSERT floor 82→84; new Section 16f
self-test + CLI grep) · brain 127/127 (floor 114→127, +13 reconcile) · hook
suite 136/136. SC4/SC6 end-to-end run is a real behavioural pass (STATE_FILE
seam read + fallback). Honest limit: read-side cannot reconstruct un-captured
specifics/trends — auto-capture is the flagged follow-up.
Brief/plan: docs/second-brain/{brief,plan}-sb-s3e.md (fbad29d). Go-before-code

Make brain/operations.md a READ tributary — the "operations centre" half of the
second brain. strategy-advisor now reads the dated "who I am now" anchor and
honours the frozen-past-self guard: when a profile.md fact predates or
contradicts the anchor, the anchor deprecates it (advisory/reader-side; NO
consolidate-engine change). Anti-sycophancy is INVERTED vs the profile —
profile facts stay evidence-to-TEST, the user-declared anchor is honoured.
- scaffold.ts operationsSeed(): dated-anchor convention (_As of YYYY-MM-DD:_) +
Plans/Ideas guidance; existence-skip idempotency preserved (no-clobber green).
- strategy-advisor.md: operations.md in Step 0 context-load + a consumption
contract (anchor authoritative, inversion, plans-vs-ideas, graceful absence).

Splits the old S3d charter: S3d = ops centre ONLY (operations.md becomes a
read tributary; strategy-advisor honours the dated frozen-past-self anchor
that deprecates older inferences — advisory/reader-side). The hygiene +
triple-post reconciliation half (dead content-history.md retirement +

Hub-side design: the published record now carries the specifics/trends ids
it was built from (additive, omit-empty → byte-backward-compatible), and a
new pure assembler (scripts/brain/src/assemble.ts + `brain assemble`) joins
post↔analytics by normalized title-prefix + date with honest confidence
tiers (high/low/none). Answers the arc's north-star query: which raw
material actually performs? (specific → post → measured analytics).
All four tributaries untouched (analytics READ-only via inlined raw-JSON,
no package import); profile.md grammar untouched (the fact→post link stays
OUT — C-1). The repeatable --specific/--trend ingest flags collect via a
new collectRepeated helper, leaving parseFlags untouched.
TDD: 19 new brain tests (ingest 4 + publish 3 + assemble 8 + cli 4), all

Hub-side design: thread specifics/trends ids onto the brain's published
record + a pure analytics resolver (title-prefix + date, confidence tiers).
Tributaries untouched; blast radius bounded to scripts/brain/. Answers the
north-star query "which raw material performs?" (specific -> post -> analytics).
Two hard constraints shaped the slice: profile.md's rigid 6-token grammar
keeps the fact->post link OUT (C-1, breaking SCHEMA_VERSION bump); analytics
has no body/URN so the analytics<->post join is a resolver, not a stored id (C-2).

The engine can now RETIRE a fact via an operator-gated, explicitly-signalled
temporal-update supersede — completing the consolidation motor's one S2 TODO
("no supersede in S2 — that's S3"). A `supersedes` signal on a candidate retires
the stale fact (re-minted to an archival id, status: superseded, REPLACED IN
PLACE, retained as audit) and installs the new winner under the canonical key-id,
so mintEntityId(key) always points at the live fact.
- consolidate.ts: Candidate.supersedes? + ProfileDiff.supersedes (SupersedeOp
carries the full winner fact, so applyDiff stays a pure projector). proposeDiff
value-guarded routing fork (routes only when the target holds a DIFFERENT value —
else a re-sent signal would self-supersede every run) + intra-batch
first-supersede-wins guard. applyDiff replace-in-place + value-matched state-check
(oldId present, active, value===oldValue) → idempotent re-apply + stale-diff safe;
superseded facts never bumped/promoted (supersede wins). Decay excludes superseded.
archivalId seeded with the pre-archival id (collision-free).
- cli.ts: renderDiffMd `## Supersessions (old → new)` (rendered last, only when
present → zero-supersession diffs stay byte-identical); validateCandidates optional
single-line `supersedes`; `--gather` profileFacts filtered to active (superseded
archival facts never re-presented as live context).
- Tests: +12 brain (consolidate 10 + consolidate-cli 2). TDD: RED (6 fail) → GREEN
(94/94). BRAIN_TESTS_FLOOR 82->94; ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR unchanged at 80 (no new
test-runner.sh section). Gate 95/0/0.
- Docs: consolidation-loop.md rule table + honest-limit reconciled (the operator
gate is the only classification net); engine docstring updated.
All 13 success criteria deterministically tested (unlike S3a, no behavioural-only
SC). READ-only gate unchanged — brain consolidate --apply --confirm stays the sole
profile.md writer. Scope held: scripts/brain/ only; temporal-update only
(condition-dependent/distractor deferred).

Second sub-slice of SB-S3 (after S3a's reader landed). Adds an operator-gated,
explicitly-signalled supersede op to the consolidation engine: a temporal-update
candidate retires a stale fact (status: superseded, re-minted to an archival id,
replaced in place, retained as audit) and installs the new winner under the
canonical key-id. Bounded to scripts/brain/ — pure, deterministic, fully
unit-testable.
Operator-confirmed scope: temporal-update→supersede ONLY · winner→dynamic
(re-earn) · minimal `supersedes?: string` · retain superseded as audit.
Light-Voyage-hardened:
- brief-reviewer APPROVE-WITH-FIXES — 8 FIX folded (the load-bearing one: id
lifecycle → winner-takes-key-id, retired fact re-minted, so mintEntityId(key)
always points at the live fact).
- plan-critic REVISE → 2 BLOCK + 6 FIX folded: applyDiff must REPLACE-IN-PLACE
(not copy → would dup the canonical key-id); proposeDiff must value-guard the
supersede fork (a re-sent stale signal would self-supersede every run); plus
--gather active-only filter + decay excludes superseded (else retired facts
leak back as live context / spam stale flags).
- scope-guardian ALIGNED (0 creep / 0 gap).
Also reconciles brief-sb-s3a.md's stale DRAFT status (S3a landed 4fa411f).

The second brain now feeds generation: strategy-advisor reads brain/profile.md
as evidence-to-test (anti-sycophancy default, graceful absence on fresh installs).
First end-to-end proof of capture → consolidate → read-back-into-generation.
- agents/strategy-advisor.md: brain/profile.md added to Step 0 Load Context + a
consumption subsection (Static/Dynamic layers, evidence_count/last_seen weighting,
anti-sycophancy counter-pressure, silent degrade when the file is absent).
- scripts/test-runner.sh: new Section 16d (Brain Profile Reader) — 2 UNCONDITIONAL
checks (non-vacuity self-test with legacy-path/lowercase decoy + exact-literal
wiring grep on strategy-advisor.md), ASSERT_BASELINE_FLOOR 78→80, header
enumeration extended. Gate 93→95/0/0; brain floor 82 untouched.
- docs/second-brain/consolidation-loop.md: reconciled the stale "no reader yet"
honest-limit to the true partial state (one reader; broader consumption deferred).
TDD: RED (only the wiring grep failed, exit 1) → GREEN (95/0/0). READ-only — the
brain consolidate --apply --confirm gate stays the sole writer. SC4 (graceful
absence) verified by inspection; SC5 (read-back) deferred to a reloaded session

SB-S0 (Foundation) of the second-brain arc: a new TS package scripts/brain/
(structural copy of specifics-bank) establishing the spine later slices hang on.
TDD throughout (failing test first); fold scope = P1+P2 only per operator decision.
- types.ts: one provenance vocab (human|published|ai-draft) + the six-field
ProfileFact record + two-layer ProfileDoc.
- id.ts: slugify + mintEntityId (sha256[:12], kind-namespaced, slug-keyed so the
id is stable across value edits) + normalizeProvenance (throws on unknown). [SC4]
- profile.ts: no-YAML line-grammar parse/serialize (parse∘serialize = identity over
the whole doc; values may contain ]/|/quotes) [SC2] + foldUserProfile: lossless,
idempotent, source-absent-aware fold of config/user-profile.template.md. Pinned
extraction — P1 labeled scalars (group-headers skipped, [placeholder]→empty) + P2
expertise group; stops at "### Research Tooling" so deferred explainer prose can't
leak in as fields. Checkbox-prefs (Goals/Tone/MCPs/Assets) deferred (§8). [SC3]
- dataRoot.ts: inline per-package resolver (repo idiom; no new seam → SC6).
- scaffold.ts/cli.ts: idempotent `brain init` — brain/{index,profile,operations}.md
+ journal/ + ingest/{inbox,published} under the data-dir; compare-then-skip, never
clobbers a user edit. No session-start wiring (SB-S2 owns it). [SC1]
Gate: new BRAIN floor in test-runner.sh (34 tests; trends/specifics/contract floors
unchanged) + anti-erosion floor 74→75. Full gate 90/0/0, tsc --noEmit clean. [SC5/SC6]
No new command/agent/reference → no version bump, no structure-count change.

Light-Voyage process artifacts for the first second-brain slice (SB-S0):
- brief.md — task brief, revised after adversarial brief-review (B1 fold-source
premise, B2 pathguard claim [later verified: STATE was right, reviewer wrong],
M1 floors-as->=, M2 scaffold trigger, M3 grammar contract, M4 runtime-only).
- plan-sb-s0.md — SB-S0 implementation plan, revised after adversarial
plan-review (plan-critic + scope-guardian, both code-verified):
B1 test convention -> real TS idiom (tests/*.test.ts via tsx, .js specifiers);
M2 profile format -> defined line-grammar (repo has no YAML parser, no dep);
M3 data-root -> inline per-package resolver (repo idiom, not a new seam);
M4 fold extraction rule pinned against the actual user-profile template;
+ minors (gate-count rationale, npm-install-before-gate, provenance throws,
stable-slug id, push-confirm).

parallel research threads that fed it, so nothing is lost before build:
- architecture.md — approved design: thin Markdown `brain/` hub (two-layer
profile.md + episodic journal/ + operations.md + index.md MOC) over the
existing typed tributaries (voice/specifics/trends/analytics), a
provenance-tagged ingest/ seam, a sleep-time consolidation loop with
evidence-threshold promotion + temporal-validity + anti-sycophancy/
anti-collapse invariants. Build sequence SB-S0..S4.
- research/connector-egress.md — LinkedIn data egress reality (EU/EEA DMA
portability API = auto for content; analytics manual CSV; no scraping).
- research/secondbrain-sota.md — 2026 second-brain / AI-memory SOTA synthesis.
- research/silo-inventory.md — faithful inventory of the 12 existing per-user
silos + the 5 hardest unification problems.

cockpit -> Maskinrommet. Design phase, no code yet.

Slice 2 of fix#2 (kilde-så-draft): the per-edition bridge between the global
specifics-bank (slice 1) and a draft. In scripts/specifics-bank:
- binding.ts — livedSpecifics slot-map model + validateBinding, the «vaghet
avvises» gate (G4). BLOCK on unresolved / dangling specific-id / unjustified
abstrakt; WARN on an unverified-number-backed slot (regel 6/7); PASS otherwise.
- kilder.ts — renderKilder, the read-only NN-kilder.md sources ledger, rendered
deterministically from the slot-map + bank (coverage via validateBinding, so
the artifact and the skeleton-gate cannot disagree).
- cli.ts — validate-binding (exit 1 = BLOCK) + render-kilder subcommands.
edition-state schema gains articles.NN.livedSpecifics ({ slots, status }) + _doc.
Design record + the Step 2 research re-scope spec: docs/fix2/slice2-binding.md.
Wiring into newsletter.md (Step 1.5 elicitation + Step 2.5 gate + pipeline 17->18)
is slice 3 — not in this commit.
Tests 28/28 (specifics-bank; +9 binding +4 kilder), tsc clean, plugin gate 83/0/0
unaffected, gitleaks clean on all 8 files.
[skip-docs] internal plumbing — no command/agent/pipeline surface change until
slice 3 wires it; documenting it in the user-facing root CLAUDE.md/README now would
overclaim unreachable functionality. Docs ARE updated where they belong: the design
record docs/fix2/slice2-binding.md, scripts/specifics-bank/README.md, and the
edition-state _doc. Root-doc update lands with the slice-3 wiring feat.

Post-hardening. Two jobs queued for next session (operator: work starts next session):
JOB 1 = run the dream-spec expert panel (docs/expert-review/dream-spec-panel.md, launch-ready
Workflow script; supersedes plan.md critique-of-current direction). Operator twist: a world-class
LinkedIn-growth panel defines the IDEAL plugin (north-star), then reviews the current plugin against
it (informational, not a plan). Mission clarified: followers of an account using this plugin recruit
NEW LinkedIn users to the account because the account is so good. JOB 2 = push everything EXCEPT
STATE.md to public open/ (STATE woven into 8/18 parked commits -> strip via filter-repo, backup first,
re-gitignore STATE local-only; open/ already public = low risk; check Ralph-Wiggum history item).
STATE.md updated with full mechanics for both. Nothing started this session per operator.

Captures the new measured-data-class rule (S31b): "Nx"/"N%" that reports or
hypothesizes from the user's OWN measured analytics — or a pure placeholder
[X]x — is not a platform claim and stays (the ab-test:418 "your data shows ...
test whether this holds" pattern); distinguish from generic-claim TARGET. S31c
must apply it to the descriptive-% sub-class (some bands are unsourced platform
norms to scrub, some are sourced benchmarks / user-measured % to keep).
Also records the jerndisiplin reminder that grep output does not count as a

Final sub-pass of the S29 plugin-wide terminology scrub. The canonical reference file is
renamed and every functional pointer updated atomically in one commit. The file's in-file
title/headers were already FORM A-scrubbed in S29c (H1 reads "Content Angles"), so S29e is a
pure rename + pointer update — no FORM A remained in the file.
Rename: references/thought-leadership-angles.md -> references/content-angles.md (git mv).
Pointers updated (17 files, 29 occurrences) — token "thought-leadership-angles" -> "content-angles":
- references/ (2): ai-content-framework, glossary

Append the S29d verification record to docs/hardening/log.md (anchored
"### S29d terminology-scrub" entry, matching S29a-S29c format): the 8-edit replacement map
across 6 files (skills/linkedin-content-creation x3, linkedin-strategy, config template, two
shipped assets, the clipboard test fixture), the 4 judgment-calls, the FORM B = 8 kept-by-design
list (buzzword denylists + role usages), the broad anchor-link check (none break), and the
verify block (FORM A in scope = NONE; FORM B unchanged 8; filename pointers unchanged 21;
clipboard test 13/0; gate 81/0/0; counts 29/19/26/6 unchanged). Documents fix commit d15ffa4.

Reconcile commands/video.md + references/linkedin-formats.md to the algorithm-signals SSOT
in one pass (20 edits/2 files). The unsourced "30% completion rate or zero distribution"
gate (7x) → "completion/dwell is a ranking input; shorter completes better; no published
hard completion gate". The 6 S27-folded link-penalty lines → "correlate with lower reach"
(incl. heading "The External Link Penalty" → "External Links and Lower Reach"). Six other
unsourced format magnitudes softened to direction-without-number (video 5.60% ER, Live
12-24x, polls 1.64x, 3x shares, Creator-Mode 35%). One internal contradiction fixed (3-sec
= 70% retention contradicted the already-reconciled three-second-folklore note).
Bucket D (this file's non-format coefficients: 47-50% reach-decline, AI-comment -30%/-55%,
hashtag -68%) left intact and deferred to S30, which is re-scoped to cover them + the other
files. Gate 81/0/0; counts 29/19 unchanged.

Reconcile external-link and topic-relevance reach-loss framing to the algorithm-signals
SSOT across 6 files (10 edits): body links "correlate with lower reach" (LinkedIn denies
an intentional penalty), topic relevance is a positive ranking input with no quantified
off-topic figure. 3 plan-cited lines + 7 same-class siblings surfaced during verify.
Bucket B (link-penalty lines in linkedin-formats.md) folded into S28; Bucket D (other
unsourced reach-coefficients: -68%/-25%/-15-25%/-30-50%/55%) queued as new S30. Engagement-
pod + AI-slop "penalized" framing left intact (officially confirmed). Gate 81/0/0; counts
29/19 unchanged.

Router hardening (routing/agent/grant axes all PASS). Operator terminology rule: the "thought leadership" phrase must not appear in the plugin. Re-sourced the 2 occurrences in commands/linkedin.md (:4 frontmatter description, :16 body) to "LinkedIn Studio". Routing 28/28 + agent-pointers 10/10 resolve; grant-hygiene clean (no Glob orphan — third front-door). Surfaced plugin-wide (~85 lines / ~45 files) and promoted to S29 terminology-scrub in docs/hardening/plan.md.
measure is the Measure-journey routing front-door (v4.1): guided "how am I
doing?" -> routes to the analytics command that owns the work; delegates only,
never crunches numbers. Routing axis is clean — all 5 emitted targets
(import/report/analyze/audit/ab-test) resolve to commands/Y.md. Delegates-only
holds: the 3 crunch/analysis mentions (:7/:20/:40) are all no-do promises, no
leak.
Grant-hygiene was the one finding, and it differs from S24 create. There Glob
was a pure orphan (no filesystem check at all). Here measure HAS an optional
Step 0 ("if .../analytics/ holds imported data, note last import") that gives
Glob a real home — but the grant<->use link was implicit (body named no tool),
and Read hung on the same vague Step 0. Operator chose: make Glob explicit,
drop Read as redundant (the import-date need is met by a Glob listing).
2 edits, commands/measure.md only:
- allowed-tools :11: drop Read; net = {Glob, AskUserQuestion}.
- Step 0 :23: "You may Glob .../analytics/; if it holds imported data, note last
import" — gives the retained Glob grant a named body home.
Verify: re-grep final — Read as tool name NONE, allowed-tools = Glob +
AskUserQuestion (:11-12), Glob now in body :23; routing unchanged (5/5);
git diff --stat = 1 file +1/-2; test-runner 81/0/0 exit 0; counts 29/19
unchanged (.md-only). FIXED, 0 deferrals. Scope note: Glob-orphan question now
resolved for measure (it had a home via Step 0; create did not); linkedin (S26)
still to check independently.

create is the Create-journey routing front-door (v4.1): guided "what to make?"
-> routes to the command that owns the format; delegates only, never drafts.
Routing axis is clean — all 8 emitted targets (post/quick/react/carousel/video/
multiplatform/batch/newsletter) resolve to commands/Y.md. Delegates-only holds:
every "draft" mention is the no-draft promise (:7/:22, long-form lock :66) or a
target-description (:38), no leak. The one finding was grant-hygiene: Glob was
declared (:14) but never used — the only file access is a fixed-path Read of the
state file (:26), which needs no pattern-matching. Same orphan-grant pattern as
S17-S22.
1 edit, commands/create.md only:
- allowed-tools :14: drop orphan Glob; net = {Read, AskUserQuestion}.
Verify: re-grep final — Glob NONE, allowed-tools = Read + AskUserQuestion;
git diff --stat = 1 file -1; test-runner 81/0/0 exit 0; counts 29/19 unchanged
(.md-only). FIXED, 0 deferrals. Scope note: Glob-orphan may recur in sibling
front-doors (measure S25, linkedin S26) — not expanded; each catches its own.

Operator promoted open follow-up #1 (reference-consistency) to scheduled work —
all SSOT divergences must be fixed, planned across sessions rather than crammed.
Added two sessions to the queue, run after S26:
- S27 (A): "penalty/penalizes" framing -> SSOT (troubleshooting-guide.md:127,
analyze.md:102, audit.md:61 "topic-relevance penalty").
- S28 (B): format magnitudes -> SSOT (video.md:69, linkedin-formats.md
"30% zero-distribution").
Surgical SSOT-reconciliation of already-hardened files, NOT full re-hardening;
hardening-class (commit local, no push).

Profile is a self-contained, prose-heavy Grow-tier audit command (no agent, no
routing, no state). Grant-hygiene was already clean (Read + AskUserQuestion, both
used, no orphans/missing). The one real axis was b': the file repeatedly framed
the relevance model as reading and VALIDATING your profile and gating distribution
on it — contradicting the SSOT (algorithm-signals-reference.md), which confirms
only topic/interest relevance as a ranking input (content matched to a viewer's
interests, incl. beyond your network) with no off-topic magnitude figure and no
weighted profile criteria. The file was internally inconsistent — its own soft,
SSOT-true framing already sat at :17/:25/:27.
12 edits, commands/profile.md only:
- desc :5: drop "validates your profile BEFORE distributing content".
- :31 + table: drop "the model evaluates five criteria (see SSOT)" false
attribution + HIGH/MEDIUM "Impact if Missing" postulated weights -> "LinkedIn
does not publish a profile-scoring breakdown ... practitioner heuristics",
column -> "Priority (heuristic)".
- :99/:161/:173/:230: reframe "first signal telling ... qualified" / "relevance
validation" / "checks if you're connected" / "if LinkedIn's AI read my profile,
would it believe" away from the profile-read-by-model mechanic.
- :25/:27/:51/:67: conflation fix — "your demonstrated expertise" / "tell the
relevance model what you're expert in" -> "a viewer's interests" / "topic-
relevance distribution" (SSOT wording) + no-percentage honesty.
- :24 (B2): "Goes to 10% of audience" -> "a slice of your network".
- :52/:61 (P3): "highest-weight search field" -> "highest-leverage" (self-
justified rest kept).
Verify: re-grep final file — all overclaim/conflation patterns NONE, new SSOT
text in place; grant-hygiene unchanged; test-runner 81/0/0 exit 0; counts 29/19
unchanged (.md-only). FIXED, 0 deferrals.

Outreach is the first command in the hardening queue that both delegates to an
agent (network-builder) and mutates real state (recordOutreachContact), so the
weight fell on axis-d. Five fixes across two files (operator-approved scope
extension to the SSOT-diverging guide source):
- allowed-tools: ADD Bash (Step 8c runs `node state-updater.mjs --record-outreach`
and needs it — firsthour precedent grants Bash for the same pattern; the command
promised a mutation it couldn't execute), DROP orphan WebFetch + Write grants
(zero body use; :410/:1040 "Write a post" is prose). Now
Read·Glob·WebSearch·AskUserQuestion·Task·Bash.
- Step 7 pod-warning (axis-b'): replaced fabricated magnitudes ("30-55% reach
reduction", "shadow suppression", "credibility score", "penalizes",
"Post-March 2025", "low dwell") with the SSOT statement
(algorithm-signals-reference.md:98 — demote out of "Most Relevant" / scope to
own network / restrict repeat offenders) + cite.
- :652 DM-amplification "2-3x first-hour" (axis-b'): re-attributed 2-3x to collab
reach (where SSOT places it), kept the first-hour effect qualitative.
- collaborations-guide.md:349-370 (axis-b', scope extension): same SSOT rewrite of
the "March 2025 Crackdown" section so the Step 7 fix can't be re-rendered from a
stale reference (dropped "shadow banning ALL future content / 90+ days / 6+
months / permanent penalty" + speculative detection methods).
Verify: re-grep both files clean (orphans/fabricated stats NONE, Bash :21, SSOT
text in place); recordOutreachContact throwaway-fixture 10/10 PASS (additive,
$-safe, newest-first, untouched undeclared fields); test-runner 81/0/0 exit 0;
counts 29/19 unchanged (.md-only).

S16 analyze through the v2 interactive quality gate (analytics/diagnostic class —
prose-diagnosis + conditional agent-delegation, NOT CLI-backed: allowed-tools
Read/AskUserQuestion/Task, no Bash). 1 finding, 1 surgical edit in
commands/analyze.md, grep-confirmed + grounded persona sim (scenario 1, reach -50%):
- FUNN (axis-b'): Step 4 penalty checklist asked 'Did you use 5+ hashtags in posts?'
— a concrete-number penalty absent from BOTH the SSOT
(algorithm-signals-reference.md: no hashtag claim, deliberately omitted) AND the
cited troubleshooting-guide.md (its own checklist is 6 items, no hashtag).
Command-only unsourced folklore. Dropped analyze.md:149; kept :150 'tag unrelated
people for reach' (defensible — aligns with SSOT bait/pod-suppression direction,
no numeric claim).
Verified clean: interpret-mode wiring (analytics-interpreter resolves, real default
mode agent:6,39,141), shared data-dir seam (analyze:41 <-> agent:49),
/linkedin:profile cross-ref, graceful-degradation IF, saves/dwell honesty (no Bash,
no over-promise). External-link hard-penalty framing in troubleshooting-guide.md:127
vs SSOT logged as reference-pass follow-up (out of S16 scope — not touched).

import.md repeatedly promised baseline comparison, rolling 4-week averages, and
baselines.json/metadata.json the importer "creates" — but no code anywhere writes
either file; detectAlerts flags intra-batch std-dev from the batch's own mean, not
a stored baseline. Step 5b's `cat baselines.json` was always empty, so the command
fell forever to "first import — baselines will be established" on every import.
Rewrote 5 sections (Step 5, 5b, 7, State Tracking, Reference Files) to the truth:
real CLI fields + YYYY-MM-DD-<shortid> filename, honest intra-batch surfacing,
cross-week analysis deferred to /linkedin:report. Verified with a grounded run
against a throwaway fixture.
Axes a/b/c/d all PASS post-fix; lint 81/0/0, counts 29/19 unchanged.

Reschedule action was under-determined vs its sibling actions: prose-only with
no bash snippet, referencing snake_case queue_update_status/queue_add that don't
match the exports (queueUpdateStatus/queueAdd). Replaced with a concrete queueAdd
one-liner using the same id (re-add moves the post in place, no duplicate).
