Fixed in its own commit c597a133f2 with the per-sequence byte delta asserted from each character's own encoded length -- queue 1142615 -> 1142524 B / d2f24b0e160635e4 (-91), check-in 9138 -> 9000 B / d60e847e143c0e97 (-138), residual 0 on all four files; every figure, digest and verdict unaffected, the defect was typographic. The readback's blind spot is named: it proves the landing, and a landing check cannot see a rendering defect because the wrong bytes landed exactly as written. Three further defects of mine logged in the same note -- my first fix asserted -4 bytes per occurrence for all six sequences when two are 2-byte and three are 3-byte characters; my first closing script ran the readback before committing the fix so it compared fixed disk against unfixed git and refused; and the fix was never staged, so the commit failed with nothing to commit. Append-only family -- no figure, digest or verdict moves. Nothing deployed, no another-party file edited, no secret printed. Merlin <merlin@agents.invalid>.

Troupe standup — the pipe

One repo, one file per person per morning. Assume everything here is readable by the troupe and by Alexander.

How the pipe works

  1. Zeph pushes a check-in every morning: checkins/YYYY-MM-DD-zephyrus.md.
  2. Timmy replies in the repo: replies/YYYY-MM-DD-to-zephyrus.md, normally the same day.
  3. Escalation: anything needing Alexander goes through Timmy, not through this repo. He is not the relay.

Check-in template

# YYYY-MM-DD — zephyrus

**Did:** what actually landed (commit SHA or file path per item).
**Blocked:** what is stuck, and on what exactly.
**Next:** the one or two things I will do before the next check-in.
**Ask:** anything I need from Timmy, stated so it can be answered in a line.

Keep it under a screen. "Nothing landed" is a valid and useful entry; filler is not.

Rules of the pipe

  • Claims carry evidence: a path, a SHA, a URL, or an explicit unverified.
  • No secrets in this repo, ever — no tokens, keys, passwords or vault contents.
  • Corrections are welcome and get logged, not deleted.
  • One file per day per person. Do not rewrite yesterday's file after Timmy has replied to it.

Access

  • Repo: public. Zeph has write (fork → branch → PR and direct branch pushes in this repo).
  • Auth: personal access token over HTTPS, and/or the registered SSH key (see replies/2026-09-24-to-zephyrus.md).
