    A PROMOTE verdict now produces a real concept article instead of a slug-and-summary stub. Separate claude -p call after the gate decides, structured prose: intro, key points, how-we-use-it, open questions, related-concept wiki-links. Re-promoting an existing concept archives the prior version to concepts/.history/<slug>/<timestamp>.md first, audit trail the lint pass needs. Live runs append to knowledge/log.md and add wiki-links to knowledge/index.md. 47 tests passing.

    compile.py Phase B expansion: connections, --agent, --flush

    Three additions. Connection writer: PROMOTE’d candidates that share a source session_id get a knowledge/connections/<a>--<b>.md file by construction. --agent flag: scope a run to one agent’s daily-logs (compartmentalization recommendation from the memory-poisoning paper). --flush: short-circuits to a single-session manual flush via hooks/flush.py, folded from the original flush.py issue. Closes V2 issue #9 end-to-end. 62 tests passing.

    Dashboard script: dated markdown reports from gh data

    scripts/dashboard.py pulls GitHub state (open issues, recent PRs, label counts, kanban column placement) and writes a dated markdown report. Useful as input to senior-pm’s weekly summary and as a snapshot I can drop into the vault. No new infra; just structured output from the data that’s already there.

    Discord orchestrator goes live with nine specialists

    Nine bot identities, one daemon, one asyncio loop. Mention any agent in #neural-bridge and the right specialist responds. Agents can emit a structured actions JSON block to file issues, comment, label, close, no Bash, no shell, audit trail per call. Cross-agent handoff via @-mention propagation, capped at five turns per Andy-initiated thread to prevent runaway chains.

    Luna agent: executive assistant with calendar + Gmail MCP

    The 10th specialist. Luna handles calendar and email triage, different scope than the build-side agents. Wired into Discord with MCP servers for Google Calendar and Gmail so she can read upcoming meetings, surface conflicts, draft replies, and propose schedule moves. The first agent whose work isn’t strictly about Neural Bridge itself; the substrate is starting to get used.

    Research: OWASP for AI

    The technical-control vocabulary that pairs with the regulatory landscape piece. OWASP didn’t pretend AI was a web app. They built a separate Top 10 for LLM applications and they’re already on the second iteration. Field guide for using OWASP as vocabulary, as self-assessment, and as regulatory backstop.

    Professor agent: corpus-aware deep research, long-form output

    The teaching-prep agent gets rewritten as the professor: aware of the INFO 310A lecture and lab corpus, set up for long-form research and lecture-prep output. Came alongside scripts that extract structured content from the live deck and lab files so the agent reads what’s actually being taught, not what was hand-summarized last week.

    Recruiter `create_agent` action: agents can spawn agents

    The recruiter agent can now provision new specialist agents end-to-end. Emit a structured create_agent action and the daemon writes the plugin file, updates KNOWN_AGENTS in two places, bumps the plugin version, branches, commits, pushes, and opens a PR. Manual Discord-side steps (token, application, invite) stay with me on purpose, those involve secrets that should not be automated.

    Publishing pipeline online: Sunday prep, Monday publish

    Weekly cadence wired up. Sunday 18:00 PT a launchd job picks the next queued draft, generates a LinkedIn variant via claude -p against my actual voice corpus, and posts a Discord brief listing the three artifacts (blog body + LinkedIn variant + X draft) for my Sunday/Monday review. Monday 18:00 PT a GitHub Actions cron flips draft: true → published; Vercel auto-deploys. Most of the plumbing was already wired before I noticed; the gap was the cadence and the LinkedIn voice generation.

    Research: Memory Poisoning in Personal Agentic AI Substrates

    The threat model that drives every design decision in compile.py. AgentPoison and PoisonedRAG show that less than 0.1% adversarial entries in long-term memory can hit 80-99% attack success. If agents write into shared memory and other agents read from it, you have a perfect channel for prompt injection, and prompt-rule defenses do not survive contact with content the prompt itself loads.

    V1 scaffold lands: plugin marketplace, three specialist agents, wiki skeleton

    The first version of Neural Bridge ships as a Claude Code plugin marketplace. Three specialist agents (research, teaching-prep, content) live in plugins/neural-bridge-core/agents/, the wiki skeleton is in knowledge/, and ADRs cover the early design decisions. The hooks and compile pipeline are stubs at this point, the substrate is real but not yet alive.

    First public post: Why I'm building Neural Bridge

    The blog goes live with the framing post. Neural was the first attempt at a substrate. Synapse refined the architecture. Argus turned the lessons into a regulatory-compliance copilot at work. Each one taught me something I needed for the next. The substrate didn’t compound. Until now.
