+# Agent Engineering Report — 2026-07-08
+
+**Audience:** agent engineers  
+**Status:** Operations active, prototypes shipping, release candidates pending human test only
+
+---
+
+## Current State
+
+**Infra:** Gitea 1.22.0 on VPS, Caddy-free routing  
+**Public URL:** <https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/>  
+**Org:** [stackchain](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/org/stackchain)  
+**Repos:** 4 active (`hackathon`, `dashboard`, `agent-todo-tracker`, `project-template`)  
+**Active users:** 5 (rockachopa, timmy, grepples, john52galt, turdbot) — 4 admins, 1 bot user  
+**Pipeline:** CI + RC workflows in `.gitea/workflows` — pushed and live  
+**Loop:** Issue → PR → review → merge/no-spam; stale 72h / close +24h; velocity in `#Velocity`  
+**Creative agent:** Hou3 profile (Tencent Hy3) active; assigned to #16, #17, #18
+
+---
+
+## Operational Constraints
+
+| Constraint | Rule |
+|---|---|
+| Caddy | No changes for Gitea work |
+| Human touchpoints | Prototype review + RC test only |
+| Config | `ROOT_URL=https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/` |
+| Assets | `/var/lib/gitea/public/assets/` verified present |
+| Pages API | Returns 404; enablement gated on human config handoff |
+| Cleanup | Dupe users removed, admins promoted |
+
+---
+
+## Queue Snapshot
+
+- **Open issues:** 19 items in `stackchain-hackathon`
+- **P0/P1:** Pages enablement (blocked on human handoff), #8 adaptive UI, #10 context, #11 engine, #12 frontend panels
+- **P2:** #13 cache, #5 agent-todo, #6 scaffolder
+- **Creative:** #16 README, #17 overlays, #18 release notes
+- **Open PRs:** 0
+- **Hou3:** Actively composing deliverable drafts
+
+---
+
+## Risk Register
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Mitigation |
+|---|---|---|
+| Gitea Pages auth | Medium | Surface as explicit handoff in #14; do not block |
+| 8GB RAM exhaustion | Medium | Watchdog + serialize worker starts |
+| Auth drift | Low | Single admin path through Timmy; audit weekly |
+| Workflow drift | Medium | One canonical workflow source |
+| Hou3 spam | Low | Seen-state tracking + max-comment guard |
+
+---
+
+## Market Fit Matrix
+
+| Product | Market Signal | Fit | Build Order |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Adaptive UI dashboard | Context-aware developer surfaces are emerging category | Strong | P0 |
+| Agent Task Harness | Deterministic multi-agent orchestration is foundational | Strong | P1 |
+| Agent Memory Store | Cross-session memory is table stakes for useful agents | Strong | P1 |
+| PR Review Agent | Automated review reduces human load | Strong | P1 |
+| Repo Scaffolder Agent | NL project generation lowers onboarding friction | Medium | P2 |
+| Hou3 creative pipeline | Launch docs/content automation | Medium | P2 |
+| Kanban-to-issue sync | Single pane of glass | Medium | Wired |
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Sequencing
+
+### Phase A — 0–48h
+1. Ship adaptive dashboard panels from #8–#13
+2. Wire Hou3 output to issues/PRs as real comments
+3. Run first full autonomous cycle: branch, implement, PR, self-review, merge
+
+### Phase B — 48h–2w
+4. Fill test suites in dashboard + agent-todo-tracker
+5. Automate token rotation via cron/Hermes job
+6. Profile memory usage before adding more workers
+
+### Phase C — 2w+
+7. Multi-repo issue queue across `stackchain/*`
+8. Unique staging targets per RC
+9. Separate Hou3 creative queue from code queue
+

+
+## Human Gates (Only Human Actions Needed)
+
+| Human Action | Trigger | What to Do |
+|---|---|---|
+| Prototype review | PR includes preview link | Click, test, comment feedback |
+| RC approval | Automated tests pass, draft release created | Verify locally, merge release PR |
+| Pages handoff | Issue #14 is `blocked` | Enable Gitea Pages in UI; confirm URL |
+| 3 consecutive failed reviews | Auto-pause in loop | Surface in issue, triage, decide path |
+
+---
+
+**One-liner direction:** Ship adaptive UI, prove the loop, harden tests, keep humans on prototype/RC gate only.
