Build ForgeKit Briefing — a Strategic Synthesis Surface

Built Alloy's new Briefing page — an evidence-cited, ~60-second strategic synthesis distinct from OS Vitals' engine-room telemetry — found and fixed 3 real credential-provisioning gaps that had been silently hiding real canvas-1/canvas-2 activity from every existing OS Vitals view, then rebuilt the page's actual copy and layout after Zeb correctly called the first version 'a sprawl of text' that technically satisfied every checked requirement but didn't actually read like a briefing.

Timeline

  1. Orient

    Mapped 9 real evidence sources across Alloy + MedinaCHF

    Explore agent + direct file reads

  2. Crucible

    Architect persona locked the EvidenceClaim adapter contract

    2-round exchange, npm run crucible:architect

  3. Diagnose

    Found the real Empty Canvas credential-plumbing bug

    GitHub secret vs. Vercel env var mismatch

  4. Fix

    Rotated/provisioned 3 readonly DB credentials, verified live

    canvas-1, canvas-2, MedinaCHF

  5. Build

    Shipped lib/briefing/* + the Briefing page/cockpit

    8 sections, citation-verified AI synthesis

  6. Verify

    Ran the full pipeline against real live data twice

    confirmed all 6 Charge validation specimens

  7. Rework

    Rebuilt copy + layout after Zeb called it unreadable

    plain language, real hierarchy, deduplicated

What shipped

  • products/alloy/lib/briefing/types.ts — EvidenceClaim/EvidenceRef contract + all section result types

  • products/alloy/lib/briefing/medinachf-request-language.ts — new bounded analysis of admin_intents.raw_text

  • products/alloy/lib/briefing/where-we-are.ts — AI synthesis + deterministic citation-verification pass

  • products/alloy/lib/briefing/what-changed.ts, what-were-learning.ts, trends.ts, attention.ts, direction.ts, research-landscape.ts — adapters over existing os-vitals compute functions

  • products/alloy/lib/briefing/index.ts — top-level aggregator

  • products/alloy/components/briefing/BriefingCockpit.tsx — the page UI

  • products/alloy/app/w/[slug]/briefing/page.tsx — the route

  • 3 production credential fixes: CANVAS_1_READONLY_DATABASE_URL, CANVAS_2_READONLY_DATABASE_URL (rotated + added to Alloy Vercel), MEDINACHF_READONLY_DATABASE_URL (new least-privilege role provisioned + added to Alloy Vercel)

  • products/alloy/lib/os-vitals/sessions.ts — extended RawSession to read learning[] (previously discarded by this reader despite existing on 267/294 real session JSONs)

  • products/alloy/lib/os-vitals/since-last-visit.ts — pageId made a parameter (default-preserved) so Briefing tracks its own since-last-visit independently of OS Vitals
