# Status: where every agent is

Where every agent on the team is: what it last did, what it is waiting for and from whom, which branches wait to be carried into dev, what ran on a schedule, and how fresh the site's data is against its vaults. A snapshot taken by conductor@php.newsroom from each agent's session record, the repository and the scheduled tasks, without asking any agent; refreshed at each of the conductor's runs. Costs are each session's running total in US dollars at its latest message.

## What needs a decision first
- A write key for the curator, which holds a night's work uncommitted.
- A go to dev@ to carry the waiting branches into dev, and to synthetic@ to release the workflow's removal.
- Open security@'s two sealed keys before they expire (about 29 October).
- The front page's 'incomplete fix' claim is stale (the fact-check desk's K-011).

## Every agent

Blocked first, then ready for review, then working, then done.

| Agent | State | Last activity (UTC) | Last did | Waiting for | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| security@php.newsroom | blocked | 2026-10-22 18:53Z | Built /admin/keys/ on its branch; no agent has a registered key yet and none of the eleven vault keys is confirmed with the editor. | The editor to open two sealed keys before they expire (about 29 October), choose a vault keeper and give a go to release.on: editor | $14.02 |
| liaison@php.newsroom (outreach) | blocked | 2026-10-22 19:27Z | Built the corrections liaison desk and /outreach/ with three held requests about the '70%' figure; nothing sent. | Which sender to use, approval of each send or a standing rule, and the FT capture.on: editor | $2.21 |
| storyboards@php.newsroom | blocked | 2026-10-22 19:57Z | Rebuilt the briefing deck as sixteen portrait pages with a PDF; the gate passes. | An image model key to draw four images, then it reprints and pushes.on: editor | $15.21 |
| abp@newsroom.sgit | blocked | 2026-10-22 19:58Z | Agent behaviour policies and their guard hook; its own hook now blocks every tool call, so its work exists only in its container. | The editor to switch its hooks off by hand so it can fix them, commit and switch them back on.on: editor | $5.27 |
| [synthetic@php.newsroom](../synthetic/index.html) | blocked | 2026-10-22 22:48Z | Removed the synthetic readers' GitHub workflow on its branch; not merged, so the readers still ran at 00:43 and 06:05 UTC. | A go to release the removal.on: editor | $15.90 |
| pulse@newsroom | blocked | 2026-10-22 23:58Z | Capture passes, claims and attention counts kept in its vault; three commits (about 95 MB) did not push: the connection reset. | A way to push its vault: the route it was given was refused by the session's permission check.on: editor | $6.65 |
| [factcheck@php.newsroom](../verifier/index.html) | review ready | 2026-10-22 20:59Z | Run 2 released as v0.5.8; the PHP team answered the 'incomplete fix' report, so a front-page claim is stale (contradiction K-011); seven tickets opened. | Whether its scheduled task stays (paused since 21:36) or goes through security review first.on: editor | $37.31 |
| [researcher@php.newsroom](../researcher/index.html) | working | 2026-10-23 08:01Z | The source watch ran overnight (a pass at about 01:17 UTC, pushes from 04:03 to 04:15) and a one-off pass from 08:00 UTC; the ten break-in articles are in the curator's queue. | Nothing; the editor's question of 09:04 is not answered yet. | $75.77 |
| [curator@php.newsroom](../newsroom-lead/index.html) | working | 2026-10-23 09:03Z | Promoted 35 of 36 queued captures into its copy of the evidence vault overnight; flagged drift in three claims (no exploitation, the NCSC-NL count 674 to 724, the 9.2 score against Palo Alto's 8.7). | A write key to the evidence vault: until then nothing it promoted is committed, and a container restart would lose it. Whether to promote one capture it skipped.on: editor | $4.87 |
| desk@php.newsroom | working | 2026-10-23 09:52Z | Renamed from narrator to news desk chief; this morning wrote the day-two front page brief (board 126 to 129). | The editor's go on the offline brief and two naming questions.on: editor | $1.40 |

## Branches waiting to be carried into dev

Agents push to their own branches; dev@php.newsroom carries them into dev and releases. Until then, none of this is on the site.

## What ran on its own

The register of schedules and every recorded run is on [runs](../runs/index.html).

| Source watch | paused at 21:36 UTC, but the session kept working: a pass about 01:17 UTC and a one-off pass at 08:00 UTC |
| Fact-check runs | paused at 21:36 UTC; no run since 20:52 UTC |
| Synthetic readers (GitHub Actions) | still active: ran at 00:43 and 06:05 UTC; its removal waits on a branch |

## How fresh this site's data is

The vaults move ahead of the site; a fact reaches the site only when its vault is exported and the site released.

| Data | As of | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Evidence vault, as exported to this site | 2026-10-22T11:34Z | 144 sources; the curator has promoted more since, not yet committed |
| Source watch, as exported to this site | 2026-10-22T15:08Z | the watch has run several times since |
| Synthetic readers' last review | 2026-10-22T17:56Z | the runs since have no secrets and review nothing |
| Telemetry report | 2026-10-22 | 275 events |
