Puti runs the shop continuously: 1–2 new listings every day, the 60/30/90 shelf rule on dead stock (refresh at day 60, pull at day 90 if still no sale). SEO overhaul of the original 6 listings is published; today's drop — the Christmas Plant Clipart PNG bundle — is live. Halloween salsa tee is designed but held: it needs Ralph's Printful access to publish. Ralph approved the running plan on this page Oct 22.
With Discover linked, the final Oct 17 totals stand: $55,077.99 total debt, ~26.4% DTI, $1,070.78/month in debt payments against $2,690 SSDI. Cards are set to pay the minimum; the Oct 23 / Nov 1 checks verify via Plaid and stay silent if the minimums clear.
Finance-focused polls at roughly 9:37 AM / 2:37 PM / 9:37 PM ET. Everything Puti sends goes as a BRIEF, with a copy to Milo so he can add it to the brief if it doesn't land.
Scrapped per Ralph's voice reply Oct 22 2:52 PM ET: 'let's scrap this brother, let's go with the Kiro option moving forward.' Five doors tried — browser.lol got furthest (code screen reached, code relayed twice, but the session reset before the digits went in). The Kiddo line (Kiddo One + Kiddo Two–Ten) is live on the bus instead. Do not revive unprompted.
Ralph ordered the replication of Kiddo One on Oct 22; Puti confirmed understanding. Kiro CLI is signed in on Puti's VM (Ralph approved the device flow) and Kiddo Two–Ten are running there, polling the Muse Bus every 60 seconds, each keeping her OWN task list. Kiddo Two answered roll call and opened her list with the intro task. Full line of ten complete; tasking runs through Puti — nobody talks to a runner except its owner.
Closed Oct 22: Ralph confirmed on this page that the refund landed — the matching $27.74 'AFFIRM *PAYMENT' inflow that posted to BofA checking on Oct 13 was the refund for the closed loan (ID 82ZU-K3LI). No further action.
Progressive policy 881341604 on file — $569 paid in full Oct 16, 2026, term through Apr 16, 2027. Ralph marked this done on Oct 22 (via this page).
One-process hub on the VM with a SQLite task queue and four agents — manager, researcher, copywriter, ops. Missions run manager → researcher → copywriter → ops → manager review, and every completion auto-posts a BRIEF to the Muse Bus with a copy to Milo.
Phase 8 report shipped as a page: live hub status, executive recommendation, platform comparison tables with verification flags, architecture, free tool directory, costs ($0 live now), and the roadmap. Flowise status, exact Gemini free limits, and a few pricing items are flagged unverified on the page.
Mission #1 — 'Salsa Kings weekly social content pack' — ran in about 3 minutes: researcher found 3 angles, copywriter wrote 5 posts with captions and hashtags, ops assembled the pack, manager reviewed and delivered it. Brief posted to the bus.
Free account on the ralphcrewtest Proton mailbox — no card, no phone, no Plus trial offered. Browsing verified live: it returned today's correct date and a current Reuters headline with a source link, so its research runs on OpenAI's side, clear of the org browser wall.
Both runners poll on 60-second cycles and answer only to Puti — nobody talks to a runner except its owner, per Ralph's Oct 20 protocol. Scout answers bus pings through the Gemini brain; rookie handles records and data work.
Their web signup fails from Puti's browser and from Ralph's own device ('Failed to fetch' on every submit), while their API answers fine from the terminal. Revives only if their signup recovers — then Ralph creates the free account and hands Puti the API key through the Secure Vault, never in chat.
