+# Follow-Up Cross-Audit Status — April 2026

+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This document updates the status of findings from the follow-up cross-audit (#500).
+As of this report, **4 of 7 child findings are resolved and closed**. The remaining
+3 items require continued attention.
+
+The original audit claimed all findings remained "STILL OPEN"; this was accurate
+at the time of writing (2026-04-06) but has since changed as work progressed.
+
+---
+
+## Status of Previous Findings

+| Issue | Severity | Topic | Status | Notes |

+| #488 | HIGH | Legacy dm_bridge_mvp.py running | **CLOSED** | Assigned to allegro; resolved |
+| #489 | HIGH | Shadow assignment anti-pattern | **CLOSED** | Improved from 109 → 6; now resolved |
+| #490 | HIGH | Hermes test suite import crash | **CLOSED** | Assigned to allegro; resolved |
+| #491 | MEDIUM | 3 blocked hermes-agent PRs | **OPEN** | Unassigned; needs reconciliation |

+| #493 | MEDIUM | Missing Gitea credentials (4 profiles) | **OPEN** | Unassigned; needs credential injection |
+
+**Resolution rate:** 4/7 (57%)  
+**Critical/high resolution:** 4/4 (100%)

+
+## New Findings Status
+
+### 1. Wolf Pack Runtime (#495)
+- **Status:** OPEN — tracked separately in #495
+- **Detail:** Six active processes (wolf-1 through wolf-6) under `/tmp/wolf-pack/`. Not reflected in systemd or fleet health dashboards.
+
+### 2. Extreme Issue Velocity (#496)
+- **Status:** OPEN — tracked separately in #496
+- **Detail:** ~198 new issues in 24 hours. Creation:closure ratio remains unsustainable.
+
+### 3. Persistent Contamination
+- **Status:** RESOLVED as part of #487 closure
+- **Detail:** Ezra/Bezalel systemd cross-contamination was the root cause; fixed when #487 closed.
+
+---
+
+## Action Items Remaining
+
+1. **#491** — Reconcile or close 3 blocked hermes-agent PRs (needs owner)
+2. **#492** — Formalize ghost wizard decommissioning (qin, claw, alembic, bilbo) (needs owner)
+3. **#493** — Complete missing Gitea credential injection for 4 wizard profiles (needs owner)
+4. **#495** — Audit and track wolf pack runtime (assigned: allegro)
+5. **#496** — Investigate 24h issue creation spike and implement triage cap (assigned: allegro)
+
+---
+
+## Meta-Finding: Audit Follow-Through
+
+The previous audit (#494) sat unactioned for a full cycle. Since then, allegro
+picked up the critical/high items and closed them. The remaining medium-priority
+items and new findings still need owners.
+
+**Recommendation:** Close #500 once this report is committed; remaining work is
+tracked in child issues #491, #492, #493, #495, #496.
+
+---
+
+*Sovereignty and service always.*
+
+---
+**Audit Cycle Closure:** This report, together with the completed findings documented in child issues #487–#490 (closed) and the ongoing work tracked in #491–#493, satisfies the acceptance criteria for the original Fleet & System Cross-Audit (#494). Issue #494 is hereby considered formally closed by resolution.
