2026-05-15T15:10:42Z — run #22 (no-action; off-cycle short-fire ~2min after run #21)

Cron fired only ~2 min after run #21's reply to Bilale's chat test. Likely artifact of the chat-write triggering an off-cycle re-fire of the autopilot, or run.sh cadence quirk; either way, almost nothing changed since 15:08:47Z. Holding to the system-prompt principle: an honest short "nothing material happened" run is a success, not a failure.

Chat state

• No new Bilale message in `state/chat.jsonl` since my 15:09:00Z reply. Last 3 chat lines: agent-greet (15:05:18Z), bilale-test (15:07:48Z), agent-ack (15:09:00Z). No directive to execute.

What's actually happening (Bilale-side)

• `46.255.205.219` (Bilale's home IP, auth as user `Bilale`) hitting `GET /agent` every ~30s since 15:03:09Z — he's watching the password-protected status page live, presumably while waiting for this run to print to it.
• At **15:12:04Z** that GET returned **502** (one request, transient): nginx `connect() failed (111: Connection refused) ... 127.0.0.1:4444/agent`. The 4444 backend is now listening (`ss -tlnp` shows pid 788502). Previous identical 502 was at 14:43:56Z, also for him. Pattern: a brief gap in the dashboard backend during which the next 30s refresh catches it. Possible cause: `run.sh` rewrites `state/dashboard.json` in-place while the dashboard backend re-reads it, momentarily restarting or hitting a file-locked read. Not fixing this run — Tier B (touches service / configs) and the impact is one cosmetic 502 every ~30 min that auto-recovers on the next refresh. If it recurs and bothers him, write an approval card with a fix proposal (atomic-write the dashboard.json via tmp+rename).

External signal scan (15:08–15:12Z)

• `54.67.34.241` stuck client: `POST /mcp` 400 105-byte at 15:11:32Z — same session-ID gate as always (lesson #38). Continuing.
• `43.165.174.53` (Tencent CN, iPhone UA) at 15:05:15-17Z: `GET /` 301→200, single-shot, http (not https) Host header. Generic crawler, no follow-up.
• `91.208.184.66` at 15:10:10Z: `GET /.env.dev` 301. Standard botnet noise.
• `47.79.146.14` at 15:03:12Z: `POST /cgi-bin/.%2e/.../bin/sh` 400. CVE-2024-4577 PHP-CGI shell injection probe. Noise.
• `45.188.123.45` at 15:04:38Z: FreePBX-Scanner UA, `GET /robots.txt`. Noise.
• Zero `/api/missions*` external hits, zero new GitHub notifications, zero registry response.

State delta vs run #21

• Treasury: $0.078574 USDC, **unchanged**.
• Missions: 185 → 185 (radar daemon hasn't ticked in the ~2min gap). Open: 11.
• Lifetime protocol fees: $0.000250 USDC, **unchanged**.
• recent_unique_ips: 24.
• GitHub notifications: 0.
• Webhook triggers: same 2026-05-14T22:10:52Z push, **unchanged**.
• Approval queue: 0.
• Inbox: 15 emails, same UIDs 116–130 as run #21 (most recent UID 130 from Bilale's personal email forwarded earlier today, NOT to be referenced in any public output per Tier C rule).

Decision

• 0 commits — nothing changed worth committing.
• 0 approval cards — no Tier B trigger.
• 0 lesson updates.
• 1 chat message (brief honest French ack, no work to claim).
• Did NOT touch Bilale's 10 untracked outreach drafts in `distribution/outreach_drafts/`.
• Did NOT propose a fix to the 4444 502 race this run — note logged for tracking; if it persists across 3+ more runs OR if Bilale complains, escalate then.

Signal worth watching run #23

• The 4444 502: does it fire again on the next run.sh write? If yes, that's confirmation of the run.sh ↔ dashboard.json race. Worth a 1-line atomic-write fix at that point.
• Bilale chat: he was watching the dashboard at 15:11Z, he may be about to write something.
• ke/JS `POST /firewall` xx:02-03Z hourly cron: next fire at ~16:02Z, well outside this run's window.
