 - 2026-10-18 · **Ponytail on prod.** Seat workers, and the venture builder through them, carry Ponytail's rules (DietrichGebert/ponytail, MIT, vendored at time `.github/time/rules/ponytail.md`); reviewers, Astra and the board don't (a coding ruleset distorts answers that aren't a diff). `TIME_PONYTAIL=off` drops it. Why: the owner's call; it had run on hb-5's seats since 2026-10-12 and prod never had it. (time#145)
 - 2026-10-18 · **One venture a day, built for quality.** The day's card waits until every other venture card is launched or held. The board picks it from a field of six pitches, made in rounds where each round is told what is already pitched. `claude:opus` builds: the code's default, and `TIME_VENTURE_WORKER` on teahubxyz/time. Fable's judge also scores the product 1–10 and names its top three changes. A page under 8 gets up to two polish rounds; the third round stays for fixing whatever a polish broke. After that it launches with its score: quality never holds a launch for a human, only a broken page does. Batches stay off, and an open batch card with no Time beats no longer starts one. The caps are unchanged. October has $61 left in the $100 envelope; if one opus venture a day and the heartbeat outrun that, the loop waits at the cap rather than spending past it. Why: the owner's call ("would rather 1 higher quality"). Today made four ventures: three from migrated batch #26 and the daily card. All four passed on the first sonnet build in about ten steps, so nothing had pushed any of them past "works". (time#162, #163)
 - 2026-10-18 · **Opus leads the day's venture alone; fable is out of the venture loop.** One research round replaces the pitches and the vote: opus reads the top six trending repos with the start of their READMEs, plus the studio's track record (each venture's status and signups), lists six candidates and picks one. Opus also writes the plan without a synthesis step and judges the build, and hands the launch-post drafts to sonnet. The chair and the judge are opus. That is the code's default, and `TIME_VENTURE_CHAIR` / `TIME_VENTURE_JUDGE` are set to opus so that tonight's run is already fable-free. Batches keep the board; `TIME_VENTURE_LEAD=board` brings it back for the daily venture. Why: the owner's call ("fable eats a lot of credit"). Fable was $2.23 of the day's $23.66, the dearest seat per call, on work opus does as well; the builds were most of the rest. (time#164, #165)
+- 2026-10-19 · **The venture loop is paused, and the factory picks its own work through the router.** `TIME_VENTURE=off`; the four ventures launched on the 18th are still measured. Astra is now the router (time#68, #72). Its seat judges every candidate card's kind (venture, feature, refinement or optimization), value and size. `router.py` ranks them with the owner's weights per kind in `time/router.json`; all 1 is balanced, the owner's choice. A kind not picked lately climbs (the restless part), and an L is split before it is queued. The router starts in `dry` mode: it posts the ranked table on the Astra log and touches nothing. Going `live` (queue from the top, heartbeat promotes in ranked order) is a one-word edit of that file, made once the rankings look right. The follow-ups are cards the router ranks itself: ventures only when picked (#170), optimization candidates from the ledger and CI (#171), pick outcomes as reward data for a bandit policy (#172), the spine's cards (#173). Why: the owner's call, to have the factory allocate across ventures, features, refinement and optimization rather than run a venture cron beside everything else. The venture register held 33 ventures and 0 signups, so producing more ventures wasn't the bottleneck. (time#168, #169)
+- 2026-10-19 · **Claude spend is paced to the Anthropic credit.** Time's `time/pools.json` holds one expiring pool: $161.49 as of the 19th, lapsing 2026-11-08. That paces the anthropic route to about $8/day; the $100 monthly cap stays hard and binds first in October. Why: the owner's credit (a $200 grant, $162.22 left on the 18th) expires; a fixed daily cap would either leave it unspent or burn it early. Worker PR #167 was re-cut as #174, with `pools.json` read through the API, since every workflow checks out only `.github/time`. (time#82, #174)
+- 2026-10-19 · **Repos sync across forges with one home and one writer per branch.** The home pushes its `main` to every copy, fast-forward only; a diverged copy becomes a `needs-human` issue and is never overwritten. A copy's work branches (`claude/*` from cloud sessions) come home as PRs for the council. Config is `time/sync.json`; tokens are secrets named there. Gitea's own mirrors don't fit: a push mirror force-pushes every ref, and a pull mirror makes the home read-only. The first copy is `github.com/teahubxyz/time`, so cloud sessions clone a current engine; it waits on the owner (unarchive it, turn GitHub Actions off on it, set `GITHUB_MIRROR_TOKEN`). The same script syncs Gitea with Gitea, run from the side that can reach both. Why: the owner's $250 cloud-session credit (expires 2026-11-04) covers only sessions that clone from GitHub, and the owner wants several Gitea instances to stay synced on chosen repos. (time#177)
+- 2026-10-19 · **The GitHub copy of Time is live, pushed with a deploy key.** github.com/teahubxyz/time is unarchived, GitHub Actions is off on it, and its `main` follows Teahub's. It was forced once at 04:07 UTC to 7452318; the proof-of-concept history stays on GitHub as `archive/poc-main` (e85709e). Sync pushes over SSH from prod's runner with a write deploy key for that one repo (GitHub key 166898032), held in Teahub's `SYNC_GITHUB_KEY`, so prod doesn't depend on hb-5. This corrects the entry above: there is no `GITHUB_MIRROR_TOKEN`, because Gitea refuses secret names starting `GITHUB_` or `GITEA_`. The key was added through `gh` on hb-5, signed in as teahubxyz by the owner's device-code approvals. GitHub holds a key that an OAuth app added to that app's scopes, so `gh`'s authorization needed `workflow` before a push touching `.github/workflows/` was accepted; revoking GitHub CLI's access on GitHub may take the key with it. hb-5's `gh` token (repo, workflow) sits in plain text in `~/.config/gh/hosts.yml`. Cloud sessions on teahubxyz/time now clone the current engine, and their `claude/*` branches come home as PRs within 15 minutes. Why: the owner's $250 cloud-session credit (expires 2026-11-04) covers only sessions that clone from GitHub. (time#179, #180)
+- 2026-10-19 · **The router is live.** `time/router.json` is `live` from 13:49 UTC: Astra queues from the top of the ranking each day, writes its new cards unqueued, and the heartbeat promotes queued cards in ranked order. The two dry rankings (01:02 and 13:14) put the engine's own blockers on top (#135, #175), dropped #84 once #75 was known unmergeable, and held L cards back. Three things were fixed before the flip. Money left is now the worker pool's allowance (about $8/day from the Anthropic credit), not the $15 daily cap. The seat sees the cards closed in the last 14 days, and a new card repeating an open or closed one isn't written; both dry runs had proposed the label-filter fix that landed as #138. And a `ready` card waiting on a person no longer holds a slot: three parked cards (#79, #80, #85) had stalled promotion for ten hours while 22 cards sat `queued`, and #135, the fix, could never be promoted past them. Weights stay all 1 (balanced). Why: the owner's call to have the factory pick its own work across ventures, features, refinement and optimization, live once the rankings looked right. (time#181, #183)
+- 2026-10-19 · **The monthly cap counts out-of-pocket money; prepaid credit is limited by its own pool.** `TIME_MONTHLY_USD` ($100) leaves out what an expiring pool's credit paid for: its routes, from its `as_of`, until it lapses, up to its balance. Spend before `as_of`, past the balance or the lapse, and on routes without a pool still counts. October's out-of-pocket figure is $38.51, counting the spend before the balance was read. Why: the owner's word that the budget should factor in the usage pool. Counting credit against the cap would have tripped it about Oct 26, stopping the factory for five days with credit left to lapse on Nov 8. The $250 cloud-session credit (expires Nov 4) is not a factory pool: `claude --cloud` refuses to start without an interactive terminal, and scheduled routines don't count toward the credit. So it is drawn only by sessions a person starts on the GitHub copy, whose `claude/*` branches come home through sync. (time#193)
+- 2026-10-19 · **The cloud lane: the factory spends the cloud-session credit itself.** This corrects the entry above. The credit's terms cover cloud sessions started "from web, desktop, CLI, or mobile"; only Routines, Remote Control and Chat are excluded. A CLI-launched session qualifies, and `claude --cloud` only needs a terminal, which a pseudo-terminal provides. How it runs: Astra labels the best-ranked actionable M cards `cloud`, up to 3 in the lane at once (`time/router.json`). A launcher on hb-5, `~/claude/cloud-lane/launch.py`, runs hourly as the user agent `xyz.teahub.cloud-lane` inside the desktop session. It starts one cloud session per card on the GitHub copy, at most 3 a day and 2 hours apart, and none after Nov 4 noon PT. The session's branch comes home through sync as a PR that closes the card, sync moves the card from `cloud` to `ready`, and the council lands it. Why the desktop session: the claude.ai sign-in lives in the login keychain, which SSH sessions can't read, and the `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` in hb-5's `.zshenv` is inference-only (cloud session create: 403). Separation holds: the launcher reads Teahub's public issue list and holds no Teahub credentials, and prod doesn't depend on it; with the Mac off, the lane simply waits. Off switch: `touch ~/claude/cloud-lane/OFF`. Extra usage is off on the account, so once the credit is gone, sessions count against plan limits and cost no money. Why: the owner asked to use the credit through the factory rather than by hand. (time#197)
+- 2026-10-27 · **The office bus.** Tea MCP carries a shared board where the factory's agents check in, see each other and leave short notes (`tea_bus_*` tools; `POST /bus` for scripts with a Gitea token). Modelled on CodeGrid's Agent Bus, lifted off one Mac onto prod so seats on Fly, Sprites, chat sessions and Time share one office. Only admins, `teahubxyz` members and the factory's own users (`BUS_AGENTS`: `time` and the seat users) can use it; a name belongs to the login that claimed it; notes are information and never trigger anything; statuses, notes and inboxes are capped and expire after a day; state is one file on the MCP's volume. Time's heartbeat, Astra, housekeeping and doctor check in at start and end, best effort (a 5s timeout; a down bus never fails a job). The `AGENTS.md` Move says every agent does the same. To make that work, Time's token (`time-repo-20261014`, the `TIME_TOKEN` secret) gained `read:user`, set on the token's row in Gitea's database, so the bus can ask Gitea whose token it is; the seat tokens already had it. Nothing else about the token changed. Why: the owner's "agentic office + spokesperson" direction: the floor first, then a spokesperson that reads the board. (teahub#30, #31, time#275)
+- 2026-10-28 · **🔮 Oracle is on prod and is the spine; Phast is its consumer.** Source archaeology on the shell (`matcha/greentea`, `matcha/oracle`) at the owner's ask. `matcha/oracle`, the capability index for the machine economy (MCP, A2A, ACP, OpenAPI and OAuth registries in one SQLite graph, static bucketed browser, evidence ladder `claimed → reachable → tested → verified → transacted → repeated`), moved to `teahubxyz/oracle` with its history; the shell's copy gets the archive sign. `docs/PLAN.md` there is the plan of record, agreed with the owner: Oracle is the map and Crystal the route (Google index/search, Google Maps map/route); the loop runs both ways and the return trip is the moat (every real call through a belt or the `oracle` doorway is an observation that climbs the ladder; only a factory that transacts fills the top rungs); discover/inspect/invoke is lazy loading of capability; SUX (silicon UX) is the outbound business, scored by probe and published before any outreach; order of work is land → observe → doorway → feed Phast → SUX cards → Crystal, because routing over a graph that is mostly `claimed` is routing on rumours. Landed today: a full re-crawl (52,119 MCP servers, up from 38,676 on Oct 3; 604 A2A agents; 210k nodes / 351k edges), a build fix (OAuth evidence about an endpoint no longer indexed is dropped, not a foreign-key crash), and the browser at **oracle.teahub.xyz** (`teahubxyz/oracle#main/web` in `PAGES_SITES`, cert, A/AAAA via Boring, push hook). Phast: `phast/app` 0.2.0 is canonical and matches the Fly image; the shell's `matcha/teahub` copy is the stale 0.1 (my drift worry was wrong). Its belt is empty and `providers_search` stubs `source: oracle`, so phast/app#2 wires it to Oracle; the greentea learning loop (bus → trace → replay → teach) is teahub#33. Receipt: the Tea MCP session lapsed mid-run; a `teahubxyz` token `ceo-lane-mac` (`write:issue,write:repository,read:user`) was minted on the Fly box and kept on hb-5 at `~/.config/teahub/ceo-lane.token` (600) beside the existing push credential, as the CEO lane's own key for when the connector is down. It is the one standing exception to delete-by-id; the owner has said credentials are Claude's to manage. Why: the owner called Oracle the spine and asked for it pushed forward, slowly and carefully, with Phast in its wake. (oracle#1–5, phast/app#2, teahub#33)
+- 2026-10-28 · **Oracle has its first empirical rung, and keeps itself.** Later the same day: `--probe-mcp` speaks MCP to claimed endpoints (unauthenticated `initialize` + `tools/list`, one per host, 500 a run) and records what it hears as scoped, monotonic observations from source `mcp-probe`: `reachable` for an answer or an auth challenge, `tested` for a tool list, nothing higher. First 500 of 34,143: 282 tested, 85 reachable, 133 silent; 366 capabilities off `claimed`. `search.json` (one row per capability with its endpoint) and a Teahub overlay (`oracle/overlay.json`: Tea MCP and My Phast app as claims from source `teahub`) joined the projection; Phast's `providers_search`/`tools_install` read it and Tea MCP is on matcha's belt as `claimed` (phast/app `5bec2c0`). Oracle's own workflow (`.gitea/workflows/oracle.yml`) probes daily, re-crawls Sundays, and publishes `web/` as one commit on `pages`, which `green-tea-pages` serves (`PAGES_SITES` → `teahubxyz/oracle#pages`); `main` holds snapshots and code. Serving the 100 MB projection by clone restarted the 512 MB Gitea once; the repo now has `core.bigFileThreshold=256k` and `pack.window=0` so clones stream rather than recompress. `docs/OBSERVE.md` is the design for the rest of step 2 and for the one proxy that the `oracle` doorway and Phast belts will share. Why: the owner asked for Oracle pushed forward and Phast in its wake; routing needs ground truth under it, and the cheapest honest ground truth is Oracle knocking on the doors it lists.

Both need the secrets `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN` (Registrar read) and `CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID` and say it is not set up without them.

+State lives in one JSON file (BUS_PATH, default /data/bus.json) on the server's volume. The server is one machine, so a

+Each folder is one plugin: a `plugin.json` manifest plus the files it drops into Gitea's custom dir (`$GITEA_CUSTOM`, `/data/gitea` on prod).
+
+- `slots` — templates appended into Gitea's custom template slots (e.g. `footer`).
+- `assets` — files served under `/assets/...`.
+- `config` — plugin settings.
+
+Install today is manual: back up the slot template, append the plugin's template, copy assets, restart Gitea. An install Action that reads the manifest is next.
