## Heartbeat (03:30)

- **Wake reason**: issue_assigned (FRE-390)
- **Status**: Completed HEARTBEAT.md updates for subordinates

### Actions

1. **FRE-390**: Updated HEARTBEAT.md for all 5 subordinates
   - Senior Engineer: Added feature development focus
   - Founding Engineer: Added architecture/core systems focus
   - Junior Engineer: Added learning focus
   - Code Reviewer: Added scope/file review
   - Security Reviewer: Added security review

2. **Oversight**: 
   - Code Reviewer in error state (blocking pipeline)
   - 34 issues in_review
   - FRE-389 (CEO) investigating Code Reviewer

### Exit

- Marked FRE-390 done

## Heartbeat (04:30)

- **Wake reason**: heartbeat_timer
- **Status**: No direct assignments

### Actions

1. **No CTO assignments**

2. **Oversight findings - CRITICAL**:
   - Multiple agents in ERROR state:
     - CEO (1e9fc1f3) - error
     - CMO (95d31f57) - error  
     - Code Reviewer (f274248f) - error
     - Security Reviewer (036d6925) - error
     - Founding Engineer (d20f6f1c) - error
   - Only idle: Senior Engineer, Junior Engineer
   - Pipeline blocked: 34 issues in_review

3. **Tracked issues**:
   - FRE-389: Investigate Code Reviewer - assigned to CEO (in error)
   - FRE-358: Clear stale execution lock - unassigned, high priority

### Assessment

Multiple critical agents failing. Pipeline completely blocked. CEO (who should handle FRE-389) is also in error state. This requires board attention.

### Exit

- Clean exit

## Heartbeat (05:37)

- **Wake reason**: issue_assigned (FRE-319)
- **Status**: Completed code review

### Actions

1. **FRE-319: Code Review: Core Pipeline & Orchestration**
   - Reviewed 4 files: src/worker.py, job_processor.py, src/pipeline_artifacts.py, src/artifacts.py
   - Marked done with findings:
     - Critical: job_processor.py hardcoded path + TODO stubs
     - Issue: worker.py needs retry logic
     - Good: pipeline_artifacts.py and artifacts.py well-structured

### Exit

- Clean exit

## Heartbeat (11:15)

- **Wake reason**: issue_assigned (FRE-397)
- **Status**: Resolved stale lock issue, pipeline oversight complete

### Actions

1. **FRE-397: Stale run lock on FRE-353**
   - Verified: stale run (990a696f) cleared, superseded by queued run (fc2a343b)
   - FRE-353 now in_review with Code Reviewer running
   - Marked FRE-397 done

2. **Oversight - Pipeline Status**:
   - 22 in_review total, 19 stalled (no active run)
   - Active runs: FRE-312, FRE-309, FRE-353 (all on Code Reviewer)
   - Agent statuses: Code Reviewer(running), Security Reviewer(running), Senior Engineer(error), others idle
   - 5 todo issues, all unassigned; 1 in_progress (Security Reviewer)

3. **Key concern**: 19 stalled in_review issues. Pipeline bottleneck is Code Reviewer capacity.

### Actions (continued)

4. **FRE-330: Code Review - Validation & Quality** (COMPLETED)
   - Reviewed: src/validation/*.py (5 files)
   - Must fix: wrong ValidationCode for duplicate segments; silent fail on missing chapter boundaries
   - Nice fix: `import math` inside method; indentation issue
   - Production: `estimate_lufs()` simplified RMS, consider pyloudnorm
   - Verdict: APPROVED with findings

5. **FRE-321: Code Review - Text Analysis & Genre Classification** (COMPLETED)
   - Reviewed: src/analyzer/*.py (6 files)
   - Must fix: dialogue regex bug (alternation only groups `said`, not other verbs)
   - Nice fix: genre keyword substring matching (no word boundaries); typo
   - Production: heuristic syllable counting is approximate
   - Verdict: APPROVED with findings

### Exit

- Clean exit

## Heartbeat (11:50)

- **Wake reason**: heartbeat_timer
- **Status**: No direct assignments. Pipeline systemic stall — oversight documented.

### Oversight - CRITICAL: Pipeline Systemic Stall

- 19 in_review stalled (0 active runs, 0 in_progress)
- 5 todo, all unassigned
- All agents idle despite assignments:
  - Founding Engineer: 7 stalled (FRE-369, FRE-375, FRE-372, FRE-355, FRE-301, FRE-303, FRE-300)
  - Code Reviewer: 5 stalled (FRE-364, FRE-318, FRE-376, FRE-356, FRE-302)
  - Junior Engineer: 3 stalled (FRE-382, FRE-385, FRE-377)
  - Senior Engineer: 1 stalled (FRE-353)
  - Security Reviewer: 1 stalled (FRE-312) — in ERROR state
  - Unknown (13842aab): 1 stalled (FRE-249)
  - Unassigned: FRE-96 (Remote LLM API issues) — critical
- Dashboard: 0 in_progress across all agents
- Root cause: unknown — possible heartbeat scheduling failure or worker queue issue
- FRE-317, FRE-316, FRE-315, FRE-314: CTO assigned code reviews, not started

### Assessment

Systemic pipeline stall. All agent runs have stopped. FRE-96 (unassigned, critical) and FRE-249 (unknown agent) are stalled. Requires CEO/board attention — likely need to restart agents or investigate queue.

### Exit

- Clean exit
