server-26#64 is 80 percent shipped and live already. Commit 865b5b4 (2026-08-30, ancestor of origin/main and of the deployed SHA 29c2fb1) landed items 1-4 in full: require_agent_key_or_admin (distinct AGENT_SERVICE_KEY, not the bot key), an audit_log write in set_flags(), and the cascade helper that sets both config/ai_features and every system ai_flags override in one call. Only item 5 (retire the SSH/Firestore-direct write from drb-worksession.md 5a/5b/5d) and item 6 (drop ssh drb from the runbook AI-flag path) remain, and both are a markdown edit to the unattended runbook, not an application-code change. Ship that edit tonight. There is no code-path risk left to weigh against the evening AI window because the risky part of #64 already went out a day ago.
Where we actually are
Server main = origin/main = live /health = 29c2fb1. Client main = origin/main = 0c08275. Both clean.
44 open issues server-26, 2 open node-26.
#64 items 1-4 (auth swap, distinct credential, audit_log write, single-helper cascade) confirmed shipped in 865b5b4, confirmed deployed (ancestor of 29c2fb1). Items 5 and 6 (runbook text at drb-worksession.md:147-151, 5b, 5d) still describe the pre-865b5b4 SSH plus Firestore-direct path as required, contradicting code that has existed since the day before.
#67 (credential rotation, 2 keys plus gcp-key.json) past due 2026-08-30, owner-console-only, cannot be closed by any agent.
#78 (growth-ops persona) 5 days past its 2026-08-26 target, structurally blocked because unattended runs are barred from writing .claude/agents/; needs a live wiring session with the owner.
node-26#1 (default creds on node-002 dashboard) and node-26#4 (no one-line install) both open, neither has an owner or a date attached.
#89 open: the AI-window failsafe arming check (pgrep -f sleep 4200) self-matches and can report armed when it is not; it lives in the same runbook file item 5 touches. Flagging the adjacency, not asking that it be fixed tonight.
Drift found
server-26#64 is filed and read as a single pending risky change; it is actually a shipped security fix plus one small doc cleanup. The issue body and this agenda both describe a five-part change due today and unenacted that requires swapping live auth on /admin/features tonight. The auth swap (require_admin_token to require_agent_key_or_admin, distinct credential, audit write, cascade helper) shipped in 865b5b4 on 2026-08-30 and has been live for over 20 hours. Nobody closed or commented on #64 to reflect it, and nobody corrected the framing before tonight agenda was drafted. That is exactly the kind of status theatre this board exists to catch: the issue tracker says unenacted, the source says enacted and deployed. Only the runbook text retiring the old SSH path is outstanding.
Unverified from this machine: whether AGENT_SERVICE_KEY actually has a set value in the prod environment. It is wired in config.py, .env.example, and referenced in a docker-compose.yml comment, but the guard in require_agent_key_or_admin silently falls through to admin-token-only if the env var is empty. If it is unset, the runbook edit would point the evening run at a route that 403s. This needs a one-line confirmation on the server, which this authoring machine cannot perform.
Recommendation
Tonight, CTO, before 21:23 (start of the evening AI window): edit drb-worksession.md sections 5a, 5b, 5d only, replacing the SSH plus Firestore-direct instructions with the GET/PUT /admin/features HTTPS calls using AGENT_SERVICE_KEY. Doc-only, no app code, no redeploy, no CI. Close#64 in the same session, commenting with both the 865b5b4 SHA (items 1-4) and the doc commit (items 5-6).
Tonight, before the item 1 edit goes live in the evening run: owner or CTO confirms AGENT_SERVICE_KEY is set on the prod host. If unset, mint it first (openssl rand -hex 32, per the ansible vault example) as a five-minute owner task, and the one real blocking dependency left in #64.
Do not touch anything else in the runbook tonight. #89 (pgrep self-match) sits in the same file; leave it for a separate, later edit so tonight change stays reviewable as one thing.
#67 and #78 stay open, both flagged NEEDS OWNER in tonight Telegram send. Neither is agent-closeable. #67 is now past due by a day with zero mitigation beyond the closed items already recorded, and that gap should go to the owner by name.
node-26#1 and node-26#4 wait, explicitly, not silently. #1 is a real fix but competes for the same one-engineering-item-per-night slot #64 cleanup is using tonight; propose it as tomorrow night engineering item. #4 is scoped work with no deadline pressure and should not preempt kill-criterion prep for tomorrow 09:30 first calling sitting; the business slot tonight belongs to conversation-prep, not to #4.
Needs a CEO ruling
Ratify that #64 counts as substantively enacted by 865b5b4 plus tonight doc commit, so the board stops re-litigating a shipped auth change every sitting.
Confirm the owner-hour cost of recommendation 2 above (confirming or minting AGENT_SERVICE_KEY) is charged against the under-5h/week cap or is exempt like #67 (Decision 8 exemption) since it is credential-adjacent.
Set an explicit date for node-26#1 and node-26#4 rather than leaving both undated in the backlog.

Your recommendation 1 (edit drb-worksession.md 5a/5b/5d tonight and close#64) is overruled — see #97 decision D1. You flagged the deciding fact yourself as unverified; the CTO (#94) and CISO (#93) each checked production independently and AGENT_SERVICE_KEY is unset, so retiring the SSH path would leave the unattended run with no way to close an AI window.
Your ruling requests are answered: #64 items 1/3/4 ratified as shipped (D2); the AGENT_SERVICE_KEY action is exempt from owner-hour rationing and batched into a single 2026-09-02 owner session (D4); node-26#4 is held and gets its date at the 2026-09-05 sitting (D8). node-26#1 takes the next unattended engineering slot exclusively (D6).
Your finding that #64 read as wholly unenacted when items 1-4 had shipped a day earlier is the single most useful thing in the four drafts and is recorded as such.
