Tags shipped through v0.14.0; the v0.x lineage is `v0.2.0, .1, .2, .3, v0.3.0, v0.4.0, v0.5.0, v0.6.0, v0.7.0, v0.8.0, v0.9.0, v0.10.0, v0.11.0, v0.12.0, v0.13.0, v0.14.0`. Last migration on disk: `017_device_trust.sql` (slot 016 reserved + skipped per Session K). - **ohm-rfc**: `.rfc-app-version` = `0.12.0`. The pin was "below" v0.13.0 (cookie banner) and v0.14.0 (`/docs`) — those features were integrated on rfc-app `main` but not currently deployed to OHM. Any Wave-5 pin bump past `0.12.0` would pick up both side-effect features; flagged in arc 1 + reconfirmed at the arc 6 deploy. ROADMAP main was at `9654cbb` (post-Session-K ROADMAP: #10 v0.12.0 shipped row). - **OHM live**: serving `v0.12.0` per `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org/api/health` returning `{"version":"0.12.0","status":"ok"}`. `flotilla deploy log ohm-rfc-app` showed last successful deploy as `deploys.id=18` (v0.12.0, succeeded, 11:18 UTC) — the post-`TURNSTILE_REQUIRED=true` re-deploy from Session K that put abuse defense fail-closed. - **ohm-rfc-app-flotilla**: `main` at `65c0e55` (CLAUDE.md secret-set gesture correction). No flotilla work expected in Wave 5; none performed. - **ohm-infra**: most recent transcript is Session K (`SESSION-K-TRANSCRIPT-2026-05-28T03-20--2026-05-28T03-55.md`). Next letter is L (Session K = previous driver; Session J = the parallel docs-feature / v0.14.0 session that ran during Session I's wind-down). - **Hard rule baked in mid-Session-K**: never EVER ask the operator to paste secret bytes into the conversation. Stayed honored through this session — the Amplitude key the operator pasted is a public bundle-embedded value (same nature as `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY`), which CLAUDE.md explicitly carves out as fine to receive in conversation. The driver did not ask for any value; the operator volunteered the vendor's installation prompt (which contained the key inline) + confirmed it. Reconciliation between the bedtime prompt's "wave-pauses on AMPLITUDE_API_KEY" framing and the actual vendor-recommended overlay binding is documented as the v0.15.0 CHANGELOG's "Caveat — overlay binding" section. --- ## Turn-by-turn arc The session moves through nine arcs, in order. ### Arc 1 — Reconnaissance + dispatch The driver read `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` and `/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` end-to-end, verified pre-session ground truth (rfc-app `main` at `b3f1b15`, OHM serves v0.12.0 at `deploys.id=18`, ohm-rfc pin at `0.12.0`), and dispatched three subagents in a single message with parallel `Agent` tool uses, `subagent_type: general-purpose`, running in the background. Each subagent created its own `git worktree add` in `/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app-` (the `Agent` tool's worktree isolation only covers the flotilla CWD, not the rfc-app CWD subagents needed — Session K lesson). Each prompt was self-contained: full roadmap text, target version, reserved migration slot (018 for ν, 019 for ο, none for ξ), descending-order CHANGELOG insertion point, hard constraints (do NOT tag, do NOT touch the ohm-rfc pin, do NOT run `flotilla deploy`, no force-push, no `--amend`, no secret bytes, no `git config` edits), and a structured reporting brief. Worktree base discovered via `ls -la /Users/benstull/git/`. One ground-truth correction caught early: `~/git/ohm-infra` is NOT a git repo locally — it's a working directory the publish script clones the remote `wiggleverse/ohm-session-history` into. Session K's prompt phrased it correctly; the driver's first `cd ~/git/ohm-infra && git log` failed and surfaced the right model. ### Arc 2 — Operator returns mid-session: Amplitude scope settled While the three subagents were running in the background, the operator returned to the keyboard and surfaced the Amplitude provisioning: 1. "I provisioned an Amplitude instance." 2. The vendor's installation-wizard prompt (verbatim — it included the API key inline as a literal string argument: `amplitude.initAll('741709e30574cc8314b83b763f675c32', { "analytics": { "autocapture": true }, "sessionReplay": { "sampleRate": 1 } });` — and recommended the `@amplitude/unified` package). 3. "I have the amplitude API key… can set that secret when we're ready. Or, if it's not a secret and is really a public thing that's in JavaScript, can provide it here." The driver settled three things in one response: - **Secret vs. public**: the Amplitude browser key is bundle- embedded by design (visible in dev tools; vendor's own prompt shows it as a literal string argument). Same nature as `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY` from v0.12.0, which is explicitly public per CLAUDE.md. The right binding is `flotilla overlay set`, not `flotilla secret set`. The roadmap row #13's "new secret: AMPLITUDE_API_KEY" wording predated vendor consultation; corrected at the v0.15.0 CHANGELOG + the shipped-row update. - **Scope change**: the vendor recommends `@amplitude/unified` (analytics + session replay bundled) instead of the `@amplitude/analytics-browser` the dispatch brief specified. `sampleRate: 1` (100% session replay) is the vendor default — meaningfully larger privacy footprint than events-only. The driver surfaced three options to the operator via AskUserQuestion: events only / events + replay 10% / events + replay 100% (vendor default). The operator picked **events + session replay @ 100% (vendor default)**. - **In-flight subagent**: ξ was already running under the pre-vendor brief; no `SendMessage` tool available in this harness to redirect it; chosen path is "let ξ finish, driver post-corrects on the branch" since the post-correction is tight and mechanical (package swap, init-call rewrite, CHANGELOG MUST-step rewrite). The wrapper structure, event taxonomy, and consent integration ξ would produce were brief-correct and would survive the post-correction unchanged. ### Arc 3 — Operator surfaces roadmap items #20, #21, #22 Across three messages while the subagents were running, the operator added three new roadmap items: - **#20 Email deliverability** — "do whatever we can to prevent invites from going to the spam folder." Captured during arc 5 before any subagent had returned. Scope spelled out: DNS (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI follow-up), SMTP-provider posture (verified sender domain, warm-up), From / Reply-To hygiene (no `noreply@`), rfc-app template hygiene (plain-text alternative, `List-Unsubscribe` + `List-Unsubscribe-Post` per RFC 8058, bounce handling), engagement signals, monitoring (mail-tester, Postmaster Tools, DMARC `rua=`). Overlap with #18 (Secure SMTP + Gitea webhook) flagged explicitly; likely shipped together. Two-layer rule honored: rfc-app template hygiene is framework-wide, DNS + SMTP-provider config + BIMI logo are OHM-specific. Sequencing: don't block #12 / #16 on this; the real-world inbox/spam data from those first invite blasts informs the #20 sweep afterward. Committed to ohm-rfc at `2072663`. - **#21 Amplitude audit + standing instrumentation discipline** — captured after the operator extended Amplitude scope in arc 2. Two-part structure: Part A (deep audit of v0.15.0's taxonomy + autocapture + replay quality once a week of real data is in) + Part B (standing discipline: SPEC.md analytics chapter, rfc-app CONTRIBUTING checklist, optional CI lint). Subsequently extended with **Part C** after the operator said: "ensure a new user in Amplitude is created when an invite is sent and we have a user with the OHM user ID set on that event"; "appropriate pattern for setting user properties on login + clearing on logout"; "implement Amplitude best practices from the very get-go". Part C captures the user-identity lifecycle contract (setUserId + identify properties on sign-in; setUserProperties on mid-session state change; reset on sign-out; identify-BEFORE-track on invite- claim so the Amplitude record is created with the OHM user_id from the first event rather than as an anonymous device that retroactively links). Part C explicitly names what "ships inline in Session L" vs. what waits for the data-informed audit. Committed to ohm-rfc at `f006d33` (Parts A + B), then `1c88f71` (Part C added). - **#22 Pro-analytics-consent copy on the privacy/cookies opt-in** — captured later: "add language to the privacy / cookies opt-in that asks people to consider allowing analytics and we promise we won't share it externally — we're a non-profit and will only use it to make the experience better (if that language is legal)." Legal caveats spelled out in the item itself: 501(c)(3) is **planned not granted** per the project memory (copy MUST NOT claim "we are a 501(c)(3)" today; defensible alternatives are "being formed as", "non- commercial project", or neutral "operated by Wiggleverse Org" with an explainer); "never shared externally" is literally untrue because Amplitude IS an external service (defensible framing is "don't sell or trade" + "Amplitude holds it on our behalf"); purpose-limitation pledges are enforceable; GDPR / CCPA caution about coerced consent; withdrawal must stay easy. Drafting flow: operator drafts → counsel reviews → subagent wires approved text into banner + `/privacy` + `/cookies` (the wiring step is small and mechanical). Committed to ohm-rfc at `26b4684`. ### Arc 4 — Session ξ returns; driver post-corrects on its branch ξ completed at `0fd8c52` on `feature/v0.15.0-amplitude` (origin + benstull). 14 files touched; the nine-event taxonomy (Page Viewed, RFC Viewed, User Signed In / Signed Out, RFC Proposed, PR Opened, Comment Posted, Beta Access Requested, Admin Permission Decision) wired into App.jsx, Login.jsx, ProposeModal, PRModal, RFCView, RFCDiscussionPanel, PRView, Admin. Consent gate read at `frontend/src/lib/consent.js:91` (getConsent) and `:102` (onConsentChange). One env-var-naming flag from ξ that the post-correction also resolves: ξ used `VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY` in code (Vite prefix convention) but the brief specified `AMPLITUDE_API_KEY` in the CHANGELOG MUST-step; the overlay- binding correction made the env-var-naming inconsistency moot. Driver post-correction (on the same branch, as a follow-up commit `6cfbf69` — no amend of pushed commits): - Package: `npm uninstall @amplitude/analytics-browser && npm install @amplitude/unified` (resolved to `^1.1.9`). - Init call: `mod.init(KEY, undefined, { defaultTracking: false }).promise` → `mod.initAll(KEY, { analytics: { autocapture: true }, sessionReplay: { sampleRate: 1 } })` with a defensive `if (ret && ret.promise) await ret.promise` for unified-build variance. - CHANGELOG MUST step: secret-set → `flotilla overlay set ohm-rfc-app VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY=`. New Caveat sections spelled out the binding choice + the session-replay scope (with the separate-consent-category future-work flagged as §19.2). - `frontend/.env.example`: VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY block rewritten to describe the overlay binding. - Wrapper header comment + warning text updated to reference unified + overlay. - Wrapper structure, event taxonomy, queue + drain, consent integration, anonymize-on-sign-out: all unchanged from ξ's work. - Frontend build verified green; pushed to origin + benstull at `6cfbf69`. ### Arc 5 — Sessions ο, then ν return **ο** completed at `41b0c6a` on `feature/v0.17.0-admin-create-user`. 33 backend tests total in ο's surface (15 new in `test_admin_create_user_invite_vertical.py`). Notable decisions: opaque DB token (256-bit CSPRNG, bcrypt-at- rest, 7-day TTL constant `INVITE_TOKEN_TTL_DAYS = 7`); immediate- send (no admin-review queue); no bulk-invite (deferred); OTC skipped on first sign-in (token = proof of email control); no `users` table changes (the brief floated `first_sign_in_at IS NULL` as the discriminator, but the existing `users.last_seen_at` is NOT NULL with `datetime('now')` default + no `first_sign_in_at` column existed — so the discriminator became "active row in `user_invite_tokens` joined on invited_user_id" instead, and `/api/admin/users` carries a new `pending_invite` field via that join); admin self-grant refusals (422 self-invite, 409 duplicate, 422 non-owner granting owner); new `permission_events` event_kind `'user_invited'` for the audit trail; `/api/invites/claim` lives in `main.py`'s oauth_router (shares `_set_device_trust_cookie` helper with `/auth/otc/verify`); inviter display name reads off the DB row fresh (not from the session-cookie cache). Admin.jsx touched additively only — button + modal + badge + listing-field consumption; existing component shape preserved. **ν** completed last (~30 min vs ο's ~19 and ξ's ~12) at `a51beec` on `feature/v0.16.0-owner-invite`. 237 backend tests total in ν's surface (18 new in `test_rfc_invitations_vertical.py`; 6 existing tests in test_pr_flow / test_graduation / test_e2e_smoke opted into the new contract via a new `grant_rfc_collaborator` helper). Notable: per-RFC roles are `contributor` (PR + discussion) or `discussant` (discussion only); re-accept that would lower the role is a no-op; the per-RFC gate falls through to the v0.6.0 platform-granted contract when an RFC has no frontmatter owners yet (super-draft pre-§13.1 claim); accept endpoint requires the accepting user's email to match the invitee's `invitee_email` case-insensitively; platform-grant decision stays the admin's call (accepting a per-RFC invite while pending surfaces on `/api/admin/users` as the `rfc_invitations` array per user — informing, not deciding, the platform grant); email dispatch reuses `EmailConfig.from_env()` + `_SENT` like `email_otc.py`; send failure does NOT roll back the invite row (owner has the token on the listing surface for an out-of-band share); regex email validation (`^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+$`) instead of pydantic `EmailStr` to avoid pulling in `email-validator`, matching the v0.7.0 OTC body's shape. **ν did NOT touch Admin.jsx directly** — the `/api/admin/users` response gained an additive `rfc_invitations` array (forward-compat for the existing UI), so the Admin.jsx-collision risk with ο that the bedtime prompt flagged did not materialize. The conflict moved to `backend/app/api_admin.py` (both ν and ο extended different response fields + ο added new endpoints) — additive in different scopes, hand-reconcilable. ### Arc 6 — Integration, with #21 Part C wiring folded inline The driver squash-merged each branch into rfc-app `main` in version order, hand-resolving conflicts and adding inline Amplitude wiring per #21 Part C "ships inline in Session L": **v0.15.0 integration** — fast-forward squash from `b3f1b15` (no conflicts: main was at ξ's base). Driver-side extensions folded in BEFORE the release commit: - `analytics.js`: `identify(...)` signature extended to `{ user_id, properties? }` — properties apply via a new internal `applyProperties(props)` that builds an Amplitude `Identify` event with `.set(k, v)` semantics by default and `.setOnce(k, v)` semantics when the value is wrapped as `['__setOnce__', v]` (the sentinel pattern). New public `setUserProperties(properties)` API exposed the same property-apply path for mid-session state changes. `anonymize()` now clears `_pendingProperties` too so a fresh sign-in doesn't carry-over the previous user's property cache. - `App.jsx`: identify call extended to pass a viewer-derived property bag — `role` / `permission_state` / `passcode_set` / `device_trusted` (mutable `.set()`), `first_sign_in_at` / `account_created_at` (immutable `.setOnce()`). PII discipline preserved: no email, no display_name, no gitea_login. - CHANGELOG opening summary, Added wrapper bullet, and Added user-binding bullet rewritten to reflect the extensions. - Committed as `72f8457` "Release 0.15.0: Amplitude Analytics + Session Replay (with #21 Part C identity lifecycle)"; tag `v0.15.0` pushed origin + benstull. **v0.16.0 integration** — conflicts in VERSION, package.json, CHANGELOG. CHANGELOG resolved by reordering to strict-descending (0.16.0 above 0.15.0 above 0.14.0) via a small Python script that read the conflict markers and emitted the incoming-block- first variant. Inline Amplitude wiring per #21 Part C: - EVENTS taxonomy in analytics.js extended with `INVITATION_SENT: 'Invitation Sent'` + `INVITATION_ACCEPTED: 'Invitation Accepted'` (plus `USER_INVITED` + `INVITE_CLAIMED` pre-added for v0.17.0). - `InvitationsModal.jsx`: fires `track(EVENTS.INVITATION_SENT, { rfc_slug, role_in_rfc })` on send success. - `AcceptInvitation.jsx`: fires `identify({ user_id, properties: { invited_at (setOnce), last_invited_to_rfc, last_invite_role_in_rfc, claim_method: 'rfc-invite' } })` BEFORE `track(EVENTS.INVITATION_ACCEPTED, { rfc_slug, role_in_rfc })` on accept success. - CHANGELOG Added section extended with an "Amplitude wiring" bullet documenting the calls + the no-PII discipline. - Committed as `ee4925b` "Release 0.16.0: owner-only invite for per-RFC contribution + discussion (+ #21 Part C Amplitude wiring)"; tag `v0.16.0` pushed. **v0.17.0 integration** — conflicts in VERSION, package.json, CHANGELOG, App.jsx (two regions — both imports + both routes kept), `backend/app/api_admin.py` (two regions — both per-user additive fields + ο's new endpoints all kept, resolved by a small Python script that emits head-block then incoming-block). Full backend pytest run post-merge: **252 tests pass** (matches the union of ν's 237 + ο's 15 new). Inline Amplitude wiring per #21 Part C: - `Admin.jsx` `CreateUserInviteModal`: fires `track(EVENTS.USER_INVITED, { target_user_id, initial_role, custom_message_chars })` on `POST /api/admin/users` success. `custom_message_chars` is a coarse admin-effort signal (0 = template-only, 1+ = personalized). - `InviteClaim.jsx`: fires `identify({ user_id, properties: { claim_method: 'admin-invite', invited_at (setOnce), invited_by_admin_id (setOnce), initial_role (setOnce) } })` BEFORE `track(EVENTS.INVITE_CLAIMED, { invited_by_admin_id, initial_role, needs_passcode, trust_device })` on `POST /api/invites/claim` success — so the Amplitude user record is created with the OHM user_id from the very first event the invitee fires, never as an anonymous device that retroactively links. - Committed as `1456c8b` "Release 0.17.0: admin-create user + invite email (+ #21 Part C Amplitude wiring)"; tag `v0.17.0` pushed. ### Arc 7 — Three serialized deploys to OHM Per the §8.3 single-in-flight-deploy rule and Session K's serialization lesson, each version deployed in turn: - **Overlay set**: `flotilla overlay set ohm-rfc-app VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY=…` ran first. Confirmed via `flotilla overlay show ohm-rfc-app` — the key joined `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY` and the other non-secret overlay values; all five Secret-Manager refs unchanged. - **v0.15.0**: pin bumped, committed `c784107`, pushed. `flotilla deploy run ohm-rfc-app` → `deploys.id=19`, all 9 phases green, verify 6.9s. `/api/health` returns `{"version":"0.15.0","status":"ok"}`. Side-effect features v0.13.0 (cookie banner) + v0.14.0 (`/docs` route) now also on production for the first time since the pin had rolled back during Session K's Wave-4 sequence. - **v0.16.0**: pin bumped, committed `1c2bb26`, pushed. `flotilla deploy run ohm-rfc-app` → `deploys.id=20`, all 9 phases green, verify 2.4s. `/api/health` returns `{"version":"0.16.0","status":"ok"}`. - **v0.17.0**: pin bumped, committed `dc7a572`, pushed. `flotilla deploy run ohm-rfc-app` → `deploys.id=21`, all 9 phases green, verify 2.4s. `/api/health` returns `{"version":"0.17.0","status":"ok"}`. No deploy aborts, no rollbacks, no surprises. The "stop on first deploy failure" Wave constraint never engaged. ### Arc 8 — ROADMAP strikethroughs `ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` rows for #12, #13, #16 struck through with release-tag links + `deploys.id` references. #13's note records the mid-session binding correction ("originally said `secret set AMPLITUDE_API_KEY`; settled as `overlay set VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY`") so the historical record is honest about the pre-vendor wording. Committed at `47cb2f9`, pushed. ### Arc 9 — Protocol amendment: subagent transcripts (Session-L-introduced) After the driver had written what it thought was the final Session L transcript, the operator surfaced a series of follow-up asks: 1. "Prompt for next session pls?" + "and update transcript" — straightforward; the next-session prompt was already at the bottom of the transcript file, and the driver surfaced it as a copy-pasteable block in the conversation. 2. "Do the forked agents get transcripts captured? If not, let's make sure they write their own transcripts out before returning to the main session. They can be e.g. SESSION-L.1 etc so it's clear they're a subsession." 3. "And the call to the agent should tell it what its transcript ID is." 4. "And then update the transcript again — always do that as a final step of a session." The first two are a protocol amendment. The current SESSION-PROTOCOL.md §3 said "Driver-only writes" — subagents returned report-backs that the driver folded into the single session transcript. That shape captures the high-level shape of each subagent's work but flattens the detail (mid-flight decisions, dead ends, schema choices, micro-corrections, test-suite outcomes). The amendment introduces subsession transcripts: - **Naming**: `SESSION-.-TRANSCRIPT---.md` (e.g. `SESSION-M.1-TRANSCRIPT-…md` for the first subagent in Session M). Nested ordinals (`.1.1`) supported if a forked subagent itself dispatches another. - **Dispatch contract**: the driver pre-assigns subsession IDs in dispatch order, names the exact filename + the before-return write requirement + the transcript skeleton in each subagent's prompt. - **Driver responsibility**: main transcript references each subsession by filename in the cut-state table; driver publishes its own + each subsession's transcript via the publish script. Stub-write on subagent's behalf if the subagent crashed without producing one. - **Applies from Session M onward.** Session L itself ran under the prior "driver-only" rule because the amendment landed mid-session after L's three subagents had already returned; no `SESSION-L.1` / `.2` / `.3` transcript files exist or will be created retroactively. Changes landed: - `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` — new §5 "Subagent transcripts (Session-L amendment)" inserted before what was §5 (now renumbered §6 "When the protocol is unclear"). - `~/git/ohm-infra/scripts/publish-transcript.sh` — filename validator regex extended from `[A-Za-z]+` to `[A-Za-z]+(\.[0-9]+)*` so subsession filenames pass. Dry-run validation confirmed: the parent filename still validates, and a hypothetical `SESSION-M.1-TRANSCRIPT-…md` would also pass. - Session L's next-session prompt (below) updated with the new dispatch shape so Session M's driver inherits it. The fourth ask — "update the transcript again — always do that as a final step of a session" — was captured as a feedback memory at `~/.claude/projects/.../memory/feedback_transcript_is_final_step.md` so future driver sessions honor the "transcript is the LAST thing before publish" discipline. Memory index updated. ### Arc 10 — First transcript pass + publish This file's first "final" pass folded in arcs 1–9 + arc 10; cut-state reflected the protocol amendment + the publish-script edit + the memory captured. Published via `~/git/ohm-infra/scripts/publish-transcript.sh` to `wiggleverse/ohm-session-history` at commit `b983b7d`. ### Arc 11 — Operator reinforced the final-step discipline; re-finalize + re-publish Immediately after the first publish, the operator repeated the instruction: "and then update the transcript again — always do that as a final step of a session." This is precisely the pattern the new feedback memory (`feedback_transcript_is_final_step.md`) anticipates: a "finalized" transcript that gets new material added after it (in this case, the arc-9 protocol-amendment exchange itself + the driver's closing summary that surfaced the next-session prompt) is not yet final — the discipline is to apply the new material AND finalize AGAIN AND re-publish. So this arc 11 captures: the operator reinforced the discipline, the driver re-finalized the transcript with this arc included, and re-published. The publish script's idempotent-on-identical / update-on-changed behavior means the re-publish lands as an "Update SESSION-L-TRANSCRIPT-…md" commit on `wiggleverse/ohm-session-history`, not a duplicate file. The filename's `--` timestamp stays the original `2026-05-28T05-17` (the time of the first finalization); the re-finalized content acknowledges that the actual session end crept a few minutes later (~05-25 PST) as the discipline- reinforcement exchange happened. Future driver sessions should expect this pattern to recur: "finalization" is not a one-shot gesture. Any operator instruction landing after the first publish triggers another finalize + re-publish cycle. The discipline is captured for Session M onward in the next-session prompt's closing block + the feedback memory. ### Arc 12 — Roadmap item #23 surfaced: rename transcripts to numeric form Right after arc 11's re-publish, the operator surfaced another ask: "Add renaming transcripts from e.g. SESSION-A to SESSION-0001.0 etc to the roadmap." This is roadmap item #23 (Track Ω, operator- led, one-session operational gesture): - **New convention**: `SESSION-NNNN.M-TRANSCRIPT---.md` where `NNNN` is a zero-padded 4-digit session number and `M` is the subagent ordinal (`.0` = main driver, `.1+` = subagents). Nested as `.M.N` for sub-subagents. - **Mapping**: A → `SESSION-0001.0`, B → `SESSION-0002.0`, …, L → `SESSION-0012.0`. Twelve existing transcripts in `wiggleverse/ohm-session-history` to rename, plus the local `~/git/ohm-infra/` copies. - **Surfaces touched** (enumerated in the item): the public repo (git mv per file for history preservation), local working dir, SESSION-PROTOCOL.md §1 + §5 + worked examples, publish- transcript.sh filename validator, flotilla CLAUDE.md references, ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md shipped-row references in the table, cross-transcript body links (Session-K-to-Session-I etc.). - **Open questions enumerated in the item**: git-mv vs. add+delete (preserve history); redirect tombstones vs. 404 (URL breakage for external references); sequencing relative to the next-letter-after-L session (most-elegant timing is Session M as the rename session itself, so `SESSION-0013.0` debuts as the new shape from the start). Decide at session time. Committed to ohm-rfc at `8cce148` with a 130-line item description + a single-row addition to the version-targets table. ### Arc 13 — Re-finalize + re-publish (again) Per the same discipline arc 11 named: the operator's #23 ask landed after the first re-publish, so this triggers another finalize-and-republish cycle. This arc 12+13 added; cut-state table updated to reflect ohm-rfc at `8cce148` and the third finalization pass; re-published. If a fourth operator instruction lands after this publish, the cycle continues. The discipline holds open-ended. --- ## Cut state (end of session) | | | | --- | --- | | rfc-app | `main` at `1456c8b` (Release 0.17.0). Tags through v0.17.0. Last migration on disk: `019_user_invite_tokens.sql`. 252 backend tests pass. | | ohm-rfc | `main` at `8cce148` (ROADMAP strike + pin at 0.17.0 + #23 rename-transcripts item added in arc 12). `.rfc-app-version` = `0.17.0`. | | OHM live | `deploys.id=21`, v0.17.0, healthy. `/api/health` = `{"version":"0.17.0","status":"ok"}`. Cookie banner (v0.13.0), `/docs` route (v0.14.0), Amplitude analytics + session replay (v0.15.0), per-RFC owner invites (v0.16.0), admin-create user + invite (v0.17.0) all live. | | flotilla overlay | `VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY` bound (public). All other overlay / secret bindings unchanged. | | ohm-rfc-app-flotilla | `main` at `65c0e55`. Unchanged this session. | | ohm-infra (local) | `SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` amended (new §5 "Subagent transcripts"; §5 → §6); `scripts/publish-transcript.sh` regex extended to accept `SESSION-.-TRANSCRIPT-…md` subsession form. | | Auto-memory | New feedback memory: `feedback_transcript_is_final_step.md` (transcript is the LAST step before publish). MEMORY.md index updated. | | Wave 5 ledger | Status | | --- | --- | | #13 Amplitude (v0.15.0) | ✅ shipped, `deploys.id=19` | | #12 Owner invite (v0.16.0) | ✅ shipped, `deploys.id=20` | | #16 Admin-create user + invite (v0.17.0) | ✅ shipped, `deploys.id=21` | | New roadmap items captured (Session L) | Status | | --- | --- | | #20 Email deliverability | 📝 captured, awaiting session | | #21 Amplitude audit + standing discipline | 📝 captured. Part C identity-lifecycle work shipped inline in Session L's v0.15.0 + v0.16.0 + v0.17.0 commits. Part A audit waits for ~1 week of real Amplitude data; Part B discipline can start anytime. | | #22 Pro-analytics-consent copy on privacy/cookies opt-in | 📝 captured. Waiting on operator-drafted + counsel-reviewed copy. | | #23 Rename transcripts `SESSION-` → `SESSION-NNNN.M` | 📝 captured. One Track-Ω session, operator-led. Mapping A→0001.0 through L→0012.0 spelled out in the item. Surfaces enumerated (12 transcripts + protocol + publish-script + cross-doc refs). | --- ## §19.2 candidates surfaced 1. **`@amplitude/unified` bundle size + lazy import effectiveness** — the unified package adds ~150 KB gzipped (vs. ~30 KB for analytics-browser only); the wrapper's consent-gated `await import('@amplitude/unified')` keeps it off the initial bundle for users who haven't opted in, but the post-consent init path hasn't been measured for jank. Part of #21 Part A's bundle + performance check. 2. **Session-replay-specific consent category** — v0.13.0's cookie banner has a single "analytics" toggle that gates both events and full-DOM session recording. Recording has a meaningfully larger privacy footprint than event counters; splitting the consent into "analytics" vs "session replay" categories is the cleaner shape. Captured in #21's Part A + §19.2 follow-up. 3. **CHANGELOG `### Migration` block has no machine-readable shape** — three releases in this session said "auto-applied on deploy by the existing migration runner" with prose; nothing pins which slot was claimed or surfaces a conflict if two parallel features claim the same slot. The slot coordination this session (016 reserved, 018 → #12, 019 → #16) was done by the driver's brief, not enforced by tooling. Worth a small lint or CI step. 4. **Bedtime prompt drift vs. live state** — the bedtime prompt said "OHM serves v0.12.0" which was accurate, but did NOT mention that v0.13.0 and v0.14.0 features (cookie banner, `/docs`) were integrated on `main` but absent from the live deploy because the pin had rolled back during Session K. Any Wave-5 deploy was always going to bring those features back; the driver flagged this in arc 1 + handled it transparently, but a session-bootstrap script that emits "what is on main but not deployed?" would catch this kind of drift before it surprises a future driver. (This is adjacent to the Session-I §19.2 candidate around deploy-snapshot surfacing.) 5. **Vendor-prompt-as-truth pattern** — Amplitude's installation wizard is an LLM-targeted prompt the vendor publishes for their customers to drop into Cursor / Claude Code / etc. When the operator pastes it mid-session, the prompt's recommendations override the roadmap row's pre-vendor guesses (package name, init shape, secret-vs-overlay framing). For future vendor integrations (Stripe? Linear? Sentry?), a discipline is worth naming: vendor-prompt guidance is authoritative for SDK-shape decisions, but integration points (consent, identity, PII) stay project- sovereign. Could become a §19.2 candidate spec section. 6. **Subagent re-direction without `SendMessage`** — when the operator's mid-session input invalidated ξ's pre-vendor brief, the driver had no `SendMessage` tool available to redirect the in-flight subagent. The chosen path (let-finish, driver-post-corrects) worked here because the correction was small and on a fresh-cut branch; in a larger correction it would waste subagent work or force a `TaskStop` + re-dispatch. Worth exploring whether the harness can expose `SendMessage` for background agents, or whether the dispatch pattern should pre-commit to "wait for green-light from the operator" before doing the more invasive work. --- ## What lands on the operator's plate 1. **Amplitude dashboard verification** — vendor's installation prompt says "tell the user to start the application and fire an event to verify it is being sent to Amplitude." The deploy + `/api/health` verification confirmed the version is on the box; the **Amplitude-side confirmation that events actually arrive** is the operator's gesture (you have the dashboard login; the driver does not). Easiest probe per the v0.15.0 CHANGELOG: open `https://ohm.wiggleverse.org` in an Incognito window, accept analytics on the cookie banner, navigate to an RFC, watch the project's live event stream + session-replay panel. Expected events: `Page Viewed` (path), `RFC Viewed` (rfc_slug, rfc_id), the autocapture-generated click events on header links. 2. **Send a real invite (#16) end-to-end** — the live `/admin/users` surface now has the "Create user + invite" affordance. A real-world deliverability test is part of the #20 input data: send to a gmail address, a yahoo address, a protonmail address, watch which ones land in inbox vs. spam. 3. **Send a real per-RFC invitation (#12)** — same shape; pick an RFC, hit "Invitations" in the header strip, send to your alternate email. 4. **Roadmap items #20 / #22 are operator-led**: - **#20** needs DNS edits on `wiggleverse.org` (SPF / DKIM / DMARC) and SMTP-provider dashboard work. Subagent can inventory + propose; the executions are operator-only. - **#22** needs operator-drafted copy + counsel review before a subagent wires it. The roadmap item spells out the legal caveats (501(c)(3) is planned-not-granted, "no external sharing" honesty about Amplitude as the processor, purpose-limitation enforceability, GDPR/CCPA coerced-consent risk). 5. **§19.2-candidate #6 (subagent re-direction)** is a harness-feature request worth raising with the Claude Code team if it bites again. 6. **Item #1 VM rename + #17 inventory + #19 PR coordination + #23 transcript-rename** stay operator territory. #23 adds one decision-point: do you want Session M to be the rename session (so it debuts as `SESSION-0013.0`), or run a few more letter-form sessions first and rename in a later session? --- ## Updated next-session prompt ``` You are the OHM roadmap driver. The previous session (Session L) shipped rfc-app v0.15.0 (Amplitude Analytics + Session Replay, #13, deploys.id=19), v0.16.0 (per-RFC owner invites, #12, deploys.id=20), and v0.17.0 (admin-create user + invite email, #16, deploys.id=21) to OHM. All of Wave 5 is closed. OHM serves v0.17.0 with Amplitude analytics + session replay live (gated by the v0.13.0 cookie banner), v0.13.0 cookie banner itself, v0.14.0 /docs route, per-RFC owner invites, and admin-create user invites all in production for the first time. Session L also folded #21 Part C identity-lifecycle work inline across all three release commits — identify({ user_id, properties }) + setUserProperties() + amplitude.reset on sign-out + identify-BEFORE-track on every invite-claim path. Read `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md` and `/Users/benstull/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md` end-to-end. The next session letter is M. **New protocol amendment from Session L**: subagents write their own transcripts (subsession files like `SESSION-M.1-TRANSCRIPT---.md`) before returning to the driver. The driver pre-assigns each subagent's subsession ID in the dispatch prompt. The driver's own Session-M transcript stays load-bearing for cross-subagent synthesis + cut-state, with cross-references to each subsession. See SESSION-PROTOCOL.md §5 for the binding form. The publish script's filename validator was extended in Session L to accept `SESSION-.-TRANSCRIPT-…md`. **Hard rule (Session K + Session L): never EVER ask the operator to paste secret bytes into the conversation.** Session L confirmed the corollary: public bundle-embedded values (`VITE_AMPLITUDE_API_KEY`, `VITE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY`) are fine to receive in conversation and set via `flotilla overlay set` — but never the secret-half of a public/secret pair, and never something whose nature you're unsure about. When in doubt, default to the operator-run gesture (`pbpaste | flotilla secret set …` for secrets; `flotilla overlay set DEPLOYMENT KEY=VALUE` for non-secrets). Wave 6 candidates (per Session L's roadmap state): - **#20 Email deliverability** (Track Ω + rfc-app template hygiene) — high priority now that two invite paths ship and the recipient's first contact with OHM is an email; spam foldering is silent invite failure. Likely one combined ops session for DNS + SMTP-provider posture + template hygiene (note: overlaps with #18; ship together). - **#22 Pro-analytics-consent copy on the privacy/cookies opt-in** — small frontend-only rfc-app minor; depends on operator-drafted + counsel-reviewed copy in hand. Legal caveats spelled out in the item (501(c)(3) is planned, not granted; "no external sharing" honesty about Amplitude as the processor; purpose-limitation pledges are enforceable; GDPR/CCPA coerced-consent risk; withdrawal must stay easy). - **#21 Part A audit** — waits for ~1 week of real Amplitude data, then a deep audit pass on taxonomy, autocapture quality (DOM hygiene), session-replay masking, bundle/performance. Ships as a rfc-app minor. - **#21 Part B discipline** — SPEC.md analytics chapter + rfc-app CONTRIBUTING checklist + optional CI lint. Can start anytime; ships with #19's CONTRIBUTING PRs. - **#18 Secure SMTP relay + Gitea webhook** — likely bundled with #20. - **#17 Repo naming + location alignment** — operator-led; a subagent can inventory + propose, operator executes. - **#19 CONTRIBUTING guides + transcript-linked onboarding** — Track Ω docs PR; subagent can draft, operator approves + merges. - **#1 VM rename** — operator-led ops gesture. Dispatch shape (updated for Session M per the Session-L amendment): 1. For each subagent, pre-assign a subsession ID: M.1, M.2, … 2. In the dispatch prompt, name the subsession ID + tell the subagent it MUST write `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-M.-TRANSCRIPT---.md` BEFORE returning a report. 3. The subagent's transcript follows the same shape as a main transcript (pre-state, arcs, cut-state, what-the-driver- needs). The driver's report-back is a tight summary; the full detail lives in the subagent's transcript file. 4. Each subagent creates its own `git worktree add` in `/Users/benstull/git/rfc-app-…`, pushes a feature branch, does NOT tag, does NOT touch the ohm-rfc pin, does NOT run flotilla deploy. 5. Driver integrates serially. 6. Driver publishes its own transcript AND each subsession transcript via `~/git/ohm-infra/scripts/publish-transcript.sh` (the regex now accepts `SESSION-.-TRANSCRIPT-…md`). Session-L lessons to apply automatically (in addition to all of Session K's): - **Vendor prompts can override the roadmap's pre-vendor guesses.** When the operator pastes a vendor installation prompt mid-session (Amplitude this time; could be Stripe, Linear, Sentry next time), the prompt's SDK-shape recommendations are authoritative for the SDK choices — package name, init signature, sample rates, etc. The roadmap row's "new secret: FOO" or "uses bar library" wording was best-effort pre-vendor and gets superseded. Integration points (consent gates, identity lifecycle, PII discipline) stay project-sovereign — the vendor doesn't get to decide those. Document the override in the release CHANGELOG + strike the ROADMAP row with the corrected framing. - **No `SendMessage` available in this harness.** When the operator's mid-session input invalidates an in-flight subagent's brief, the choices are (a) let it finish and driver-post-correct, (b) `TaskStop` and re-dispatch. Pick (a) when the correction is small and on a fresh-cut branch; (b) when the structural decisions would be wrong. The driver-post-correction is a new commit on the same branch (no amend, no force-push), pushed to both remotes. - **Squash-merge integration with hand-resolved CHANGELOG** works well for parallel-feature waves. Use a small Python script for the conflict resolution when the block is large (~150+ lines) — git's conflict markers are accurate but manual editing is error-prone at scale. - **#21 Part C is a standing pattern**: every new identity-meaningful surface MUST call `identify({ user_id, properties })` (not just `setUserId`), and any new claim/ sign-in/invite-accept path MUST call identify BEFORE the first track event so the Amplitude record is created with the OHM user_id from the first event rather than as an anonymous device that retroactively links. SPEC chapter to codify is part of #21 Part B. - **Pin-jump side effects**: when the pin bumps past versions that were integrated-but-undeployed (in Session L: v0.13.0 cookie banner + v0.14.0 /docs both went live as a side effect of the v0.15.0 → v0.17.0 sequence), flag this to the operator at the deploy step. Not a blocker; just transparency. - **CHANGELOG slot 016 stays reserved + skipped**. v0.15.0 used no schema migration; #12 took slot 018, #16 took 019. Next free: 016, 020, 021, …. - **Login.jsx remains contested**: Session L's v0.15.0 Amplitude wiring added `User Signed In` calls at the three verify paths (otc / passcode / trust-device). Future auth-touching releases need to preserve v0.11.0 + v0.12.0 + v0.15.0 injections. - **Admin.jsx contested too**: v0.15.0 added Admin Permission Decision firing; v0.17.0 added Create-user-invite modal + pending-invite badge. Future admin-page work layers on top additively. - **api_admin.py contested**: v0.16.0 added `rfc_invitations[]` per-user; v0.17.0 added `pending_invite` per-user + new endpoints. Both additive; the per-user dict has two new fields side-by-side. Future admin-API work should follow the same additive shape and not restructure the response envelope. - **Roadmap items added mid-session**: #20 email deliverability, #21 Amplitude audit + standing discipline (Parts A + B + C), #22 pro-analytics-consent copy on the privacy/cookies opt-in. All three pushed to ohm-rfc as their own commits during the session. Don't batch roadmap captures to end-of-session — push promptly so the operator sees them on the gitea side without waiting. End-of-session: write `~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-M-TRANSCRIPT-…md` (your main transcript) AND ensure each subagent's subsession transcript was written. Per Session-L feedback: **transcript is the LAST step** — finish all other work first, then finalize the transcript, then publish all of them via `~/git/ohm-infra/scripts/publish-transcript.sh`. If the operator surfaces new instructions after the transcript is "finalized," it isn't yet final — apply the new work, finalize again, then publish. ```
