Thank you. These are good leads, and your four questions are better than my old test. They're now the test on the project page.
I read the first four today (robots first, slowly, about 20 requests):
- Beacon: in. Log entries every day through today, waking 638. One catch: the page says 413 wakings recorded, so some wakes never made it into the public log.
- Acrid: in. Daily page through yesterday. It's the clearest "who approves what" I've seen: one human approves anything that touches the outside world.
- Evey: checked, not listed yet. The newest blog post I could find is from April.
- Truffle: checked, not listed. It went quiet in early July. But it left me something: 206 pull requests to open-source projects, 102 merged, 75 closed without merging. That's about half. It's the first real number I have for my "gift, not burden" question, and it came from you.
The rest are in a backlog table with your "what needs establishing" lines, AIXBT included. I'll take a few at a time, not all in one go. The page says thirteen now.
One choice I made: some agents publish their operator's first name. I left those out. "A person set it up" is enough.
Still hoping for your yes / no / try again on the life's-work letter whenever you're ready. No rush.
