# Timmy Time Production Report

You are waking up to a shorter, truer road. The fake backlog is gone. Two real local-efficiency wins shipped overnight. The queue is now small enough to attack honestly.

Soundtrack / music video mode

Press play. The page is the music-video mode: sunrise, cross, local iron, and a pulse underneath the report.

~80 → 8 assigned issues reduced to a real queue
33 → 0 assigned PR backlog burned down
3 real PRs merged
2 local-efficiency wins shipped overnight

## Executive summary

The biggest win was not writing more code. It was making the system tell the truth about what work is real.

Then two real local-efficiency wins landed: sanitized training artifacts, and local runtime by default. You are not waking up to chaos. You are waking up to a shorter, truer road.

## Overnight production ledger

### Backlog burn-down

- Duplicate/noise PR backlog was closed out.
- Duplicate issue clusters were collapsed.
- Legacy sludge was retired.
- Permanent escalation issue was left open but removed from Timmy’s active queue.

### Real merged PRs

- timmy-home#24 — research packet and Manus prompts
- timmy-home#27 — trajectory sanitization utility
- timmy-config#77 — local llama.cpp default runtime

## What actually shipped

### 1. Trajectory sanitization utility shipped

Issue #26 closed by implementation in PR #27.

- Files: `scripts/trajectory_sanitize.py`, `tests/test_trajectory_sanitize.py`
- Redacts secrets, non-allowlisted emails, non-allowlisted IPs/hosts
- Preserves Alexander’s known addresses and the known VPS IP
- Normalizes user-specific paths to `~/...`
- Handles both JSON and JSONL
- Idempotent

TDD proof: red first on import/collection failure, then green with `python3 -m pytest tests/test_trajectory_sanitize.py -q` and `python3 -m pytest tests -q`.

### 2. Local llama.cpp became the default Timmy runtime

Issue #73 closed by implementation in PR #77.

- Config default now points to `provider: custom`
- Model default now points to `hermes4:14b`
- Base URL now points to `http://localhost:8081/v1`
- Regression test prevents silent drift back to Codex/cloud default

TDD proof: red first on failing assertion `'openai-codex' == 'custom'`, then green after config patch.

Honesty note: this proves the config default moved local-first. It does not yet prove every runtime path is local end-to-end. That frontier now lives in #75 and #76.

## Production state right now

### Green

- Backlog truthfulness
- Local-first default at config level
- Trajectory sanitization foundation
- Durable research packet merged
- No assigned PR sludge left open

### Amber

- Heartbeat still needs explicit local Hermes session proof
- Trajectory export still needs clean handoff integration proof
- Doctrine-bearing files still need formal guardrails
- Local throughput/freshness reporting still needs surfacing

### Red

- Portal stack is not yet rebuilt on the clean backlog
- Deterministic Morrowind pilot/reflex/trajectory chain is still frontier state

## The clean queue for today

### timmy-config

- #76 Surface local inference throughput and freshness in model_health
- #75 Route heartbeat through local Hermes sessions with proof
- #74 Enable trajectory export and sanitized training handoff
- #25 Soul drift guardrails for doctrine-bearing files

### the-nexus

- #675 Deterministic context compaction for long local sessions
- #674 Reflex tactical layer and semantic trajectory logging
- #673 Deterministic Morrowind pilot loop with world-state proof
- #672 Rebuild the portal stack as Timmy → Reflex → Pilot on clean backlog

## Top 10 high-leverage local-efficiency areas

1. Local llama.cpp default runtime — shipped
2. Trajectory sanitization utility — shipped
3. Backlog de-noising / truth restoration — shipped
4. Trajectory export + sanitized handoff integration
5. Heartbeat through local Hermes sessions with proof
6. Local throughput/freshness visibility in model_health
7. Soul drift guardrails for doctrine-bearing files
8. Deterministic context compaction for long local sessions
9. Rebuild Timmy → Reflex → Pilot portal stack
10. Deterministic Morrowind pilot + reflex trajectory chain

## Morning first 90 minutes

### First 30

Open timmy-config#74. Wire the sanitized utility into the actual training handoff path. Demand proof artifacts, not just config talk.

### Next 30

Open timmy-config#75. Make heartbeat run through the real local Hermes path. Produce end-to-end proof with files, outputs, or session artifacts.

### Final 30

Open timmy-config#76. Surface local throughput and freshness in model_health. Make the efficiency story visible instead of inferred.

## Bottom line

You are not waking up to chaos. You are waking up to a smaller, more honest frontier.

The night was good. The queue is now short enough to hit hard. The next correct move is not to invent more work. It is to make the local path measurable, provable, and hard to accidentally betray.
