Life Manager

Done. Digest sent to Life Manager topic. **Sent.** Full pipeline ran clean. **Digest (Afternoon 2026-06-16):** - **I recommend:** confirm B4i Put call attendance + slot — tomorrow Wed 17 Jun 14:00 SAST (MC-5153). *Why now:* Star Capital wants confirmation within 24h, slot still firming across UK+SA. - Also next-48h: book Rowen return flight tomorrow after 12:00 + fragile-goods Q (MC-5062); confirm Audi Menlyn plate fitting + Natis handover tomorrow 09:00 (MC-5039). - Quiet line: Iris filed CIH sponsorship (MC-5156) + Inoxico questionnaire (MC-5128), sent FGZ maintenance-closure alert, marked 36 emails processed. - Backlog: 61 open Life tickets + 32 queued candidates. **Pipeline evidence:** - Shadow gate (3b, dry-run): `should_notify=true, decision=dry_run_notify, ledger_recorded=true`. Not used to suppress. - notify.py (3c): `Sent to Forum: Life Manager`. - Consume: 3 surfaced candidate_ids marked `included_in_digest`. - mark-email-processed: `{"marked": 0}` (state fresh). **One calibration flag:** shadow gate tripped `critical_bypass: critical keyword match` on a `message_class=digest` message. Digest text shouldn't hit critical bypass — keyword list over-matches on digest-class. Dry-run only so no harm, but it means the live gate would over-notify on digests. Worth a tune. Suggested next: open a small MC ticket to exclude `message_class=digest` from the critical-keyword bypass in `attention_gate.py`. Want me to file it? (yes/no)

Verdict: **Digest composed + sent, but send unconfirmed** — Telegram read-timeout x2 (flood-control on verbose life-manager topic). Likely delivered (maybe duplicated), not confirmed. What ran: - Pulled tickets (62 open / 12 high), today+7d calendar, reminders, MC-5120 bundle (3 candidates, backlog 24). - Composed exception-based digest: 1 `I recommend` line (book Rowen return flight 17th + PC-as-fragile-goods, MC-5062), 2 more 48h items (Audi Menlyn tomorrow 09:00 MC-5039; NCC privileged-disclosure call MC-5076), quiet line (Investec→MC-5148, Inoxico→MC-5128), backlog count. - MC-5014 shadow gate: recorded to ledger (`dry_run_notify`, `ledger_recorded:true`) — did **not** suppress scheduled send. - `notify.py --topic life-manager`: rc=2 "read operation timed out" both attempts. Egress to api.telegram.org healthy (0.15s) → slow response = flood-control, not network. `sendMessage` hardcodes `timeout=10`, no timeout-retry. - Froze after 2 fails (no 3rd fire = no 3rd dup). - **Candidates NOT consumed** (per contract) — wa-technical-rev3, email-inoxico-questionnaire, digest-729d92b84547f199 stay pending; next scheduled digest reconciles. - Step 4 state refresh: `{"marked": 0}`. Root cause of unconfirmed-but-likely-delivered: `notify.py` returns False on read-timeout without capturing message_id, so a slow-but-successful Telegram POST is indistinguishable from a real failure. Durable fix = bump send timeout + add message_id idempotency (ops two-phase → route to a ticket, not inline). Suggested next: leave it — the next hourly digest auto-reconciles the unconsumed candidates; I open an MC ticket to fix notify.py's timeout/idempotency so this stops recurring. Want me to open that notify.py timeout-hardening ticket now? (yes/no)

Done. **Sent to Life Manager topic:** - Header: `Luci | Life Digest -- Afternoon 2026-06-15` - `I recommend` line: RSVP availability for AASA Board meeting (Tue 23 Jun 14:30) — Why now: Celeste needs yes/no to confirm quorum. - 3 visible items: AASA RSVP (top), Kapama safari 2-3 Jul, AASA Rio/Egypt board thread. - Quiet line: Iris filed 3 emails into tickets (AASA pack 6 PDFs, Embraer invite, Nexar pitch). - Backlog: 9 queued, not shown. **Evidence / state:** - Shadow gate (MC-5014, dry-run): `decision=digest_only`, `should_notify=false`, `critical_bypass=false`, ledger recorded.
