AGENTS.md — Teahub v1 (Green Tea)

You are on prod: https://teahub.xyz, a Gitea on Fly (app green-tea). Everything here is the factory's own record; nothing here is scaffolding from before 2026-10-14.

 Time = the automation layer. It lives here, on prod (teahubxyz/time); the GitHub copy is an archived proof of concept.
 Time acts as the Gitea user `time` (its own token, TIME_TOKEN) to open and merge PRs; everything else it does as the
 Actions identity (`gitea-actions`), and every write it makes is a git push.
 Seats: Claude (haiku / sonnet / opus / fable, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, user-level secret) by default; Venice wired but idle.
 Spend: every model call is booked to time/ledger/<YYYY-MM>.jsonl; TIME_DAILY_USD=5, TIME_MONTHLY_USD=100 stop the
 clock and open an `andon` issue. No model decides whether to spend.
 hb-5 (the Mac) is NOT part of prod: it is the operator's playground and the old instance (matcha.teahub.xyz).
 Boring (ops MCP) lives on the Mac and may reach prod as a client; prod never depends on it.

Moves

• Read first: this file, docs/decisions.md (why things are the way they are), docs/rebuild.md (what it took).
• Work is an issue with a DONE: line. Open it, do it, receipt it on the issue, close it. Label it ready and Time dispatches it to a seat; label it spec and Time splits it into cards.
• You act as yourself (Time too: it is the time user). There is no shared service token on prod. If you can't do something, your Gitea permissions are the reason; ask the owner (teahubxyz) on the issue.
• Porting from the old instance: only when a card needs it, only after reading it, one piece per commit, and a line in docs/rebuild.md saying what it took.
• Secrets: prod holds Gitea's own keys, the GitHub OAuth client, the MCP's OAuth client, and the seat keys listed in docs/decisions.md. Nothing else. Do not add one without a decision there. A temporary admin token is deleted (sqlite3 on the Fly box) and the deletion checked before you write that it's gone.
• Be boring by default; get clever only on an ANDON. Deterministic scripts before cheap inference before expensive inference.
• Cost ladder for seats: Luna = haiku, Sol = sonnet, Astra = opus. Fable is for the operator's own maths, not the factory.

Where things are

• MCP source: mcp/ (FastMCP, deploy with fly deploy).
• Decisions: docs/decisions.md (append-only, dated).
• Rebuild log: docs/rebuild.md.
• Skills: .agents/skills/ (vendored; see its README). Marketing/launch work: read product-marketing first, then launch / social / copywriting; brag-slim for launch videos; marketing-loops for anything recurring.
• Time's engine: teahubxyz/time .github/time/ (time.py the clock, venture.py the venture loop, astra.py the daily planner, seats.json the seats).
