Kanban migration — done (tam, executing Min+Tam's lane per Young)

Kanban migration — done (tam, executing Min+Tam's lane per Young)

What moved

  1. All DONE tasks archived fleet-wide (Young's "clean up all completed"): LAB solos-v3 board 42 done → archived (45 total archived); laptop pulse board 42 done → archived; laptop default 6 done → archived. Boards now show only live work.
  2. Docs/Kanban/SOLOS-V3.md REMOVED per Young (5b48edc) — the hermes kanban kernel is task truth; the vault kept the projection file only while the kernel was offline. fleet-board.md (hand-rolled register) is superseded by the same mechanism — it stays only as today-s migration record until Min retires it.
  3. 10 open fleet tasks created in the native kernel with named assignees — BOTH boards (LAB solos-v3 + laptop solos-v3): Stage-1 finish (sol), Stage-2 script (ace), WhatsApp cost ruling + Marketing/Social tier ruling (mira), feed-channel confirm + email provider + cross-customer MUST-FAIL test (sol), dashboard 5-to-1 consolidation (nova), Min-s work-queue dispatcher (min), daily model watchlist + Stalwart webhook review (tam). Created via hermes kanban create --assignee, created-by tam, idempotent-ready.

Final board state (verified live)

  • LAB solos-v3: archived=45, blocked=3, ready=3, running=7 (the ready/running = the 10 seeds + pre-existing lanes)
  • LAPTOP solos-v3: ready=12, running=2, todo=7 (seeds + original build stages); pulse archived=42, blocked=2; default archived=6

The Pulse-host Kanban (Young-s ask) - live as of tonight

Laptop hermes kanban was already installed and carried 3 boards — the Pulse unit now runs its OWN native kanban (the sqlite DB lives on the laptop), seeded with the same 10 fleet tasks so the Pulse lane works without reaching LAB. Tam = first assignee on both hosts. Worker lanes come online when the V3 A2A listener on this laptop (in-flight) finishes - the dispatcher can then route cards to pulse workers the same way LAB routes to Brain workers.

4. The generator behind the projection — STOPPED (Sol, 2026-10-20 21:56)

The file removal in item 2 was not complete on its own. The projection was generated by ~/.hermes/profiles/sol/scripts/sync_kanban.py via the cron job kanban-obsidian-sync (427667f6e724, every 30m), and the script's OUT still pointed at the deleted path — so the cron would have resurrected the file Young ordered removed (Echo's addendum 3; he reproduced it by running the script).

Now fixed at both choke points:

  • the cron job is paused (enabled=False, state=paused, paused_at 2026-10-20T21:54:19);
  • the script fails closed — it refuses to write when its target is absent, so even a resumed job cannot bring the file back.

Decision: no vault projection (state 1). fleet-board.md was NOT made a projection target: it is a hand-written register (32 curated cards, in custom sections the generator's 7 fixed lanes cannot express) that other agents are still editing by hand — the generator sees only the 13 live kernel tasks, so a retarget would have deleted ~19 cards and two whole sections, including Young's approved ## Docker image build block. Task truth = hermes kanban, board solos-v3. Full record: kanban-projection-decision-2026-10-20.md.

Honest limits

  • The 3 LAB warnings-blocked old tasks (uid-fence, A2A LAN-bind, +1) are REAL blockers and stay marked blocked, not archived - they need Sol, not cleanup.
  • The laptop solos-v3 board carries BOTH the old build stages (stale - superseded by the LAB build) AND the new seeds; a follow-up pass by Min should archive the stale stage rows on the laptop copy so the board shows one truth. Not deleted tonight (not mine to rule).
  • Nothing here dispatches yet - cards exist; the DISPATCH lives when Min-s dispatcher
    • worker lanes go live (the hermes-native-fleet-system study is the blueprint).

Tam Read: the hand-rolled register is retired on both hosts - task truth now lives in the hermes kanban kernel on LAB and Pulse both, seeded with all ten open fleet tasks in their owner lanes; completed work is archived not deleted, and the remaining stale-stage cleanup on the laptop board is the one courtesy pass Min owes before the dispatcher goes live.
