7-day disruption audit · May 7–13, 2026 · marvin.log analysis

Repeat requests
The cost: On the worst day (May 9), 29 restarts + 38 silence warns = 67 disruption events. Every restart wipes in-flight agent context. Every silence warn is an agent that probably got killed. That's the friction you feel as "Hello? Are you there?"

ETF tracker is the outlier — large batch pulls trigger silence watchdog. Fix: checkpoint + ⏳ every 5 tickers.

Item State Issue
Remove Bid/Ask/Mark columns Checked ✓ Deployed overnight without approval. Jerry reverted. Checkbox is wrong.
P badge = cyan, C = amber Duplicate Already in "Previously Done." Agent re-did it. Waste.
Exp format: MM/YY Checked ✓ Deployed and reverted. Checkbox still shows done.
Remove stock name from symbol cell Unchecked Marked "couldn't find in code." May already be fixed or irrelevant.
Remove Amount column Unchecked Marked "meaning unclear — needs discussion." Legitimate hold.
Remove $ from Strike Unchecked Marked "already removed or needs discussion." Agent couldn't confirm.
Root cause: Agents treat any unchecked item in an active Chunk as a to-do list. Items added as "potential improvements" or "needs discussion" look identical to approved work. Fix: add explicit status (APPROVED / HOLD / DISCUSSING) to each item so agents can't execute on anything that isn't APPROVED.

What's improving

Top 3 fixes ranked by impact

1️⃣
TASKS.md status field (options-helper + ETF tracker)
Add APPROVED / HOLD / DISCUSSING to every unchecked item. Agents can only act on APPROVED. Prevents tonight's recurrence.
30 min
2️⃣
ETF tracker silence guard
71 of 105 silence warns come from ETF channels. Checkpoint + ⏳ every 5 tickers would eliminate most of them.

3️⃣
Confidence dashboard in Discord (in-flight status)
One always-visible message showing what's running, what's done, what's blocked. Cuts "Hello?" messages to near zero.
