The flow runs on its own; Alloy learns to tell the owner

Five agents now run from their schedules and close their own loops; Alloy became five destinations that say what needs Zeb and what the work produced, without claiming value it cannot see; and an invention sandbox was tested by case sets its author never saw.

What shipped

  • Flow: per-type completion contract (pr/done/awaiting/parked/failed) and the `awaiting` label (forgekit-os/flow/README.md, smith-routine.json); 5C label history; S9 per-producer windows (34h GitHub, 26h Herald)

  • Steward feed: logs each finding's current evidence and low findings; close rule fixed (truncation no longer blocks every close; read failures and a partial inbox still do); producer auto-closes carry `auto-cleared` and reopen when the finding returns (forgekit-os/scripts/flow/issues.mjs, tests/issues.test.mjs)

  • products/alloy/lib/command/decisions.ts + decision-sources.ts: one projection of everything waiting on a person, seven kinds, unknown never shown as zero; Steward S11 removed; feed sends counts only

  • products/alloy/lib/command/results.ts: what the work produced, on rungs done / reached / answered / proven, never promoted on inference

  • products/alloy/lib/owner-loop-status/stage.ts: Owner Loop Status and Briefing classify requests with Command's rules (a held change is waiting, not blocked)

  • products/alloy/lib/command/sources/owner-loop.ts: currently held changes always read; waitingWithoutTime reported

  • Steward S12 (Smith PR outcomes) and pr.closed events (products/alloy/lib/command/steward.ts, sources/flow.ts)

  • Alloy navigation as five destinations + Settings (components/WorkbenchNavItems.tsx, Sidebar.tsx); Forge Arc rail hidden where no Arc is in view (TopRail.tsx)

  • Home: four-tile pulse, 'Only you can act', customers waiting grouped per app, what the work produced (components/home/NeedsYou.tsx, WhatChanged.tsx)

  • products/alloy/app/w/[slug]/growth and /economics pages (+ bare-route redirects); lib/growth/read.ts

  • products/alloy/scripts/validate-scenarios.ts: the Charge's scenarios A-G against live data (11/11)

  • products/alloy/playwright.ux.config.ts + tests/e2e/ux-review.ux.ts: owner-page screenshot harness on a local production build

  • Scout flow-to-issues counts only sendable recommendations (products/scout/scripts/flow-to-issues.ts)

  • docs/alloy/stage-2-inventory-2026-10-26.md; docs/invention/phase-1-where-ideas-come-from-2026-10-26.md; docs/invention/track-b-morphology-2026-10-27.md

  • experiments/season-constitution/: synthetic co-op, ballot router, two independent case sets and their scored outputs

  • forgekit-os/scripts/flow/pioneer-report.mjs: daily method rotation (Track C)

  • Owner Loop tooling: accept-pending-candidate stashes before checkout; publication receipt accepts a contained candidate (promote-app.mjs selectPublishedDeployment)

  • Windowseat's Vercel Git integration disconnected (no more deployment per push); CLAUDE.md updated
