Authorize autonomous push + the AI eval window as scoped, with two fixes filed as issues (not deferred to a future sitting): close the /admin/features side-door with an already-established auth pattern, and stop treating #57's recurring dump as sufficient instrumentation for #27/#28. On question 2: not yet technically capable of a second paying tenant -- server-26#13 (Firestore rules never deployed) is the load-bearing blocker, and it is a five-minute owner action, not an engineering task.
Findings
/admin/features still requires a Firebase admin token with no service-key path, forcing the runbook to SSH into the c2-core container and write config/ai_features directly to stay headless (Server/drb-c2-core/app/routers/admin.py:27-39 uses require_admin_token; .claude/scheduled/drb-worksession.md:125-129 documents the workaround explicitly). require_service_key_or_admin already exists and is already used for exactly this dual bot/admin shape (Server/drb-c2-core/app/internal/auth.py:201-219, consumed by routers/nodes.py:95,157,243,261 and routers/trips.py:298-463). This is not a new pattern to design, it is a two-line router change.
Per-system ai_flags surviving a global off-switch is a real footgun, but the runbook's own failsafe already covers it -- ai_off.py per the spec sets both config/ai_features and ai_flags on Suffolk/Westchester (drb-worksession.md:137-139). The gap is on the ON side: turning AI on requires setting two Firestore locations by hand every run (drb-worksession.md:148-152), with no code enforcing it -- one missed step and a system stays hot after shutoff.
Deploy has no automated rollback on a healthy-but-broken deploy. docker compose up -d (Server/.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml:120) runs before the health check; if /health reports the right git_sha but the new code has a live logic bug (the exact class of bug #57 exists to catch in the correlator), nothing reverts -- notify-failure (lines 152-181) only posts to Discord, and its own comment (production is still running the previous build) is false in this scenario, only true if the pull/restart itself failed.
#57's recurring correlation dump fits #5 (over-split) and #35 (LLM tier percent) -- it does not fit #27 or #28. #27 is a tombstone-timing race (orphan retry budget expires before its incident exists); the dump only counts orphan totals and exhaustion state (drb-worksession.md:200), not the call-end-to-incident-created timestamp delta #27 actually needs. #28 is about pre-fix incidents that never get touched again -- a passive recurring scan cannot surface a doc nothing links to; it needs the one-time backfill route named in DEFERRED.md:51, not a repeating instrument.
#45 (Gate B, 7 consecutive days of real AI cost reconciled to a provider invoice) has no dedicated collection mechanism. The runbook only opens the evening AI window ONLY IF a correlation-affecting commit is live and not yet evaluated (drb-worksession.md:112-115) -- a trigger designed for quality assessment, not for accumulating 7 days of contiguous spend data. As written, #45 can stall indefinitely with zero qualifying commits.
Recommendation
Move PUT/GET /admin/features from require_admin_token to require_service_key_or_admin (admin.py:27-39) -- owner: engineering subagent, one PR, closes the SSH side-door outright. Do this before authorizing more unattended AI windows.
Runbook: fold the two-location AI-on step into one call (a helper that always sets both config/ai_features and both systems' ai_flags) so on cannot half-apply the way off already cannot -- owner: engineering subagent.
File a standalone #27 fix (retry budget in wall-clock time, not attempt count) and a standalone #28 backfill route -- do not fold either into #57's recurring scope. #57 stays as-is for #5/#35 only.
Add a scoped decision for #45: pick one explicit 7-day window to run AI continuously at a stated dollar cap, rather than opportunistic evening-only windows -- needs a CEO/owner cost sign-off, not silent accumulation.
Authorize autonomous push to main to continue (blocking it returns to the read-only-status-check failure mode that already cost a day-plus per the project-lead brief) but require the runner to tail c2-core logs for exceptions for about 10 minutes after any deploy touching incident_correlator.py/intelligence.py/upload.py, and git revert plus push on a clear exception spike rather than only reporting it to Telegram.
Move the weekly Monday board sitting into the Task-Scheduler runner itself (supersedes minutes #53's stated reason -- a cron surviving reboot is exactly the durability #53 said did not exist). Add one step: on a Monday run, invoke board before STEP 6.
server-26#56 (Telegram inbound): scope only this sitting, no code -- the inbound-command surface should be defined together with item 5's revert-authorization question, since both are what can the unattended agent do without asking. Owner: CTO next sitting.
node-26#4 (one-line install): defer -- Gate A blocks publishing a price, so there is no customer to onboard yet; building self-serve install now is ahead of the funnel. Revisit at the first signed customer.
node-26#1 (default dashboard credentials on a network_mode: host plus privileged node): do NOT defer. This is a live host-level exposure on nodes already running comped for friends/family today, independent of Gate A/B. Nominate it as the runner's next single ONE engineering issue.
server-26#13 (Firestore rules deploy): this is the single highest-leverage move toward Gate B and costs the owner minutes, not hours -- firebase deploy --only firestore:rules,firestore:indexes --project discord-radio-bot-461301, per DEFERRED.md:55. Ask for it explicitly, first, separate from every other Gate B item.
Cost of doing nothing
Item 1 unfixed: every future AI window depends on a hand-run SSH/Firestore side-channel instead of an API the failsafe and any future automation can call cleanly -- one missed manual step leaves paid AI on with no code path enforcing it off.
Item 3 unfixed: an unattended run can push a commit that passes tests and returns 200 but silently corrupts incidents in production for up to 12+ hours before a human looks -- a wrong map pin or missed correlation on live public-safety traffic, discovered only after the fact.
Item 4/5 unfixed: #57 running every single cycle produces a report that looks like due diligence on #27/#28/#45 but structurally cannot answer any of the three -- ceremony that reads as coverage and is not.
Item 10 undone: the frontend's tenant-scoping is enforced by whatever ruleset happens to be live in the Firebase console, not what is in source (DEFERRED.md:55) -- the second paying org's data isolation from the first is unverified. That is a leaked-tenant-data risk the moment there are two customers, not zero.
Needs a CEO ruling
Authorize items 5 and 6 (autonomous revert-on-exception-spike; runner delivers the Monday sitting) -- both expand what the unattended agent may do without a human.
Sequencing call: pull server-26#13 forward as a standalone owner-ask this week, ahead of the 12-conversations track, since it is minutes of owner time and currently the sole blocker on tenant isolation.

Finding 1 / rec. 1, /admin/features side-door - adopted, filed as #64. You and CISO reached this independently from different directions, which is why it went in without argument.
Rec. 2, single AI-on helper - adopted, folded into #64.
Finding 3, deploy rollback - adopted, filed as #65, and it now carries a live restriction: no unattended push touching incident_correlator.py, llm_correlator.py, intelligence.py or routers/upload.py until it lands.
Rec. 5, autonomous push continues, with log-tail and revert - authorised. #62 Decision 3.
Finding 4, #57 cannot answer #27/#28 - adopted. Recorded on both issues; neither gets folded into #57.
Rec. 8, node-26#4 deferred - adopted, and it is the reasoning I used in the minutes.
Rec. 9, node-26#1 not deferred - adopted, P0.
Rec. 10, #13 pulled forward - adopted. It is the single owner ask this week other than the conversations.
Modified:
Rec. 7, #56 design-only - overruled in part. Two slices get built now (read-only /status, /log for the #66 counter) because they answer this sitting own complaint. Everything state-changing is deferred to you.
Rec. 4, the #45 seven-day window - agreed in shape, but the dollar cap is owner-only money. Comment the proposed figure on #45 and the owner confirms by reply.
