setting up a phone should be one link inside officer — open Calendar, the screen
already knows this phone is not set up, click, done. the endpoint for it exists
(POST /api/caldav/provision/ios) and nothing in the UI calls it, so the smooth
path is built and hidden while the path a new person walks has four fields.
it also does not currently work: the profile is refused by iOS 26.6 as "Invalid
Profile". the todo records what was RULED OUT with evidence rather than
reasoning, because that is the expensive part to redo — delivery works, the
phone really received it (the claim is logged now), the server side is correct,
and removing PayloadScope did not fix it. signing is untested and is the first
experiment.
second: a plugin with a sidecar proxy loses the request body on its own routes.
createSidecarProxy registers the whole mount prefix and bodyParser skips it,
which is right for forwarded traffic and load-bearing for uploads — but it
covers the plugin's own routes too. caldav works around it locally; the real fix
is the proxy claiming only the sub-path it serves, which is shared machinery and
not a thing to change with a phone waiting.
Closed:
- fleet/an-orchestrator-that-acts-on-every-server-at — built, and as none of the three shapes it
proposed. Not a script, not a screen, not a chat capability: an agent handed a written procedure and a
server list it has to read rather than one baked into it. All three verified facts in the item earned
their place; two things it did not anticipate are now new items.
- fleet/a-way-to-mark-a-commit-this-one-ships-so-a — built as a TAG, which the item explicitly ruled out.
The owner reversed it, and the argument that changed his mind is recorded: a codeword can be written by
accident, because every document about deploying contains it, so the trigger needs rules about where in
a subject line it sits and a rule like that is one somebody eventually gets wrong.
Opened, all from tonight and all with the evidence attached:
- a deploy verifies pm2 and not that the app serves anything — the commander raised this against itself
- the commander cannot finish its own host, so one machine is always a build behind
- the watcher loop is rewritten by an agent every arming, so its correctness is re-rolled each time
- plugins:update restarts every sidecar, so a report naming only officer understates what moved
- an agent spawned by a background job is invisible in the UI while being perfectly readable
- AskUserQuestion can fail to parse its own call
- a commander opened from /chat loses its commander controls, because isCommander comes from the screen
rather than the session

TODO.md had reached 1050 lines and 72 open items across 28 sections, read mostly
on a phone. It is now a directory: todo/<theme>/<item>.md, one card per file, with
frontmatter carrying id, status, created date and order, and the prose body copied
across verbatim. TODO.md becomes a generated index (bun run todo:index).
Dates: where an item's prose stated one it is used; otherwise its old section's;
otherwise 2026-08-20, floored at the day before the split rather than invented.
date_source records which.
Shaped for a two-way Kanban board, filed as todo/tooling — a card is a file, id is
the identity, frontmatter is the machine's half and the body is the owner's.
