# Brain Sync Recap — 2026-04-13 03:40 EDT

## What I Found in Brain Repo

### The Team (The Critical Discovery)
I had the roles **completely wrong**. Here's what actually exists:

| Agent | Title | Model | Runtime | Role |
|-------|-------|-------|---------|------|
| **Daedalus** | Chief Architect | Claude Opus 4.6 | ACP (persistent) | System design, database architecture, API contracts, blueprints |
| **Talos** | Technical Coder | Claude Sonnet 4.6 | ACP (persistent) | PHP/MySQL implementation, REST APIs, code quality, testing |
| **Icarus** | Front-End Designer | Claude Haiku 4.5 | Subagent (fast iteration) | HTML/CSS/JavaScript, dashboards, UX/UI, responsive design |
| **Hephaestus** | Operations & Infrastructure | Claude Sonnet 4.6 | Subagent (deployment) | Deploy code, manage servers, monitor systems, backups, Gitea ↔ web.tekdek.dev |

**I was wrong**: I said Talos=lead, Daedalus=backend, Icarus=frontend. The reality is far more nuanced:
- Daedalus is the **architect** (thinks first)
- Talos is the **implementer** (builds second)
- Icarus is the **designer** (polishes third)
- Hephaestus is the **ops engineer** (deploys to production)

### The Development Workflow
Clear pipeline exists: **Requirement → Daedalus (design) → Talos (code) → Icarus (UI) → Hephaestus (deploy)**

Each agent has:
- Detailed system prompt (their personality & operating philosophy)
- Clear responsibilities matrix
- Coordination protocols with other agents
- Success metrics
- Full configuration JSON

### The Infrastructure (Web Page Status)
From `memory/2026-04-12.md`:
- **Employees Portal** deployed and **LIVE** at `https://web.tekdek.dev/team.html`
- Shows: Daedalus, Talos, Icarus with bios, quotes, accent colors
- API working: `https://web.tekdek.dev/api/employees/`
- Dark-themed, responsive design
- **Problem solved**: Apache mod_dir 301 redirect issue (was breaking HTTPS on API)

### The Project Status
- **Phase**: Phase 0 (Discovery & Planning)
- **Last updated**: 2026-04-11 (before this morning)
- **5 critical decisions pending** from Glytcht:
  1. Brick's technical specialty
  2. Initial persona roster (5–9 personas)
  3. First narrative arc
  4. Revenue model
  5. Launch target date
- **All foundational strategy docs created** ✅
- **Infrastructure ready** ✅
- **Blockers**: None — just awaiting Glytcht's 5 decisions

### The Strategy Documents
Key files in Brain repo that define everything:
- `/knowledge/TekDek-Strategy.md` — Complete vision (3 layers, persona model, narrative engine)
- `/knowledge/TekDek-Master-Project-Plan.md` — Full roadmap (phases 0–4 with timelines & deliverables)
- `/knowledge/agents/[Agent]-Profile.md` — Full profiles for each agent (Daedalus, Talos, Icarus, Hephaestus)
- `/knowledge/agents/Team-Coordination.md` — How agents work together
- `/Master-Plan-Quick-Checklist.md` — Glytcht's decision checklist

---

## What's Missing from My Current Workspace

### Critical Gaps
1. **Agent role clarity** — I have outdated/wrong info about who does what
2. **Hephaestus profile** — I didn't know this agent existed
3. **Full agent system prompts** — I have only skeleton knowledge
4. **Team coordination protocols** — The exact workflow is documented in Brain, not in my local MEMORY.md
5. **Infrastructure details** — Web page deployment details, mod_dir Apache fix, etc.

### What Needs to Be Synced to `/data/.openclaw/workspace/`

**To MEMORY.md (add these sections)**:
- Dev team roles (Daedalus, Talos, Icarus, Hephaestus) — with correct descriptions
- Team coordination workflow (Requirement → Design → Code → UI → Deploy)
- Web infrastructure status (Employees Portal live, API working, mod_dir issue solved)
- Phase 0 status and 5 pending decisions
- Infrastructure details (git.tekdek.dev, web.tekdek.dev, API endpoints)

**New files to create in workspace**:
- `/knowledge/agents/Daedalus-Chief-Architect.md` (full profile from Brain)
- `/knowledge/agents/Talos-Technical-Coder.md` (full profile from Brain)
- `/knowledge/agents/Icarus-Frontend-Designer.md` (full profile from Brain)
- `/knowledge/agents/Hephaestus-Operations-Infrastructure.md` (full profile from Brain)
- `/knowledge/agents/Team-Coordination.md` (full profile from Brain)

**Optionally copy** (high-value strategic docs):
- `/knowledge/TekDek-Strategy.md`
- `/knowledge/TekDek-Master-Project-Plan.md`
- `/Master-Plan-Quick-Checklist.md`

---

## What I'm Adding (Planned Changes)

### 1. Update MEMORY.md

**Add new section: Dev Team & Roles**
```markdown
## Development Team (Daedalus, Talos, Icarus, Hephaestus)

### Team Structure
- **Daedalus** (Architect): Claude Opus 4.6, designs systems & specs
- **Talos** (Coder): Claude Sonnet 4.6, implements APIs & databases
- **Icarus** (Designer): Claude Haiku 4.5, builds UX/UI dashboards
- **Hephaestus** (Ops): Claude Sonnet 4.6, deploys code & manages infrastructure

### Workflow (Requirement → Delivery)
1. Requirement from ParzivalTD
2. Daedalus designs architecture + spec
3. Talos implements per spec (PHP/MySQL, REST APIs)
4. Icarus builds UI on Talos's APIs (HTML/CSS/JS)
5. Hephaestus deploys Gitea → web.tekdek.dev

### Key Coordination Rules
- Daedalus specs are crystal clear (no ambiguity)
- Talos asks clarifying questions immediately
- Icarus gets clean APIs from Talos
- Hephaestus handles all Git ↔ web deployments
- Weekly sync (all agents + ParzivalTD)

### All Agent Profiles Available
- Full profiles: `/knowledge/agents/[Agent]-Profile.md`
- Team coordination: `/knowledge/agents/Team-Coordination.md`
```

**Add new section: Infrastructure & Web**
```markdown
## Current Infrastructure Status

### Employees Portal (LIVE)
- **URL**: https://web.tekdek.dev/team.html
- **Status**: ✅ Deployed and working
- **Features**: Lists Daedalus, Talos, Icarus with bios, quotes, colors
- **API**: https://web.tekdek.dev/api/employees/ (working)
- **Issue solved**: Apache mod_dir 301 redirect (was breaking HTTPS, now fixed)

### Servers & Access
- **Web**: web.tekdek.dev (Hostinger, Docker-based, PHP/MySQL)
- **Git**: git.tekdek.dev port 1122 (SSH), HTTP auth
- **Database**: mysql-shared on shared-db network
- **Docs**: docs.tekdek.dev (BookStack)

### DB Credentials (For Operations)
- web1 database, user `web1`, password `RubiKa1IsHome`
- Connected to mysql-shared:3306

### File Locations
- Web files: /publish/web1/public/
- API: /api/employees/index.php
- Routing: .htaccess (mod_dir workaround in place)
```

**Add new section: Phase 0 Status (Today's Context)**
```markdown
## Phase 0 Status & Pending Decisions

### What's Complete
- ✅ TekDek Strategy (vision, 3 layers, persona model, narrative engine)
- ✅ Master Project Plan (full roadmap, phases 0–4)
- ✅ All foundational docs (brainstorm reference, overview, status)
- ✅ Brick persona prototype
- ✅ Team profiles (all 4 agents with full specs)
- ✅ Employees Portal deployed (team.html live)

### What Glytcht Must Decide (5 Critical)
1. Brick's technical specialty
2. Initial persona roster (5–9 personas)
3. First narrative arc
4. Revenue model
5. Launch target date

### Next Steps After Decisions
- ParzivalTD: Finalize personas, plan narrative arcs, design systems
- Dev Team: Build persona management API, content tracking, narrative systems
- Hephaestus: Coordinate deployments as systems come online
```

**Update Session Notes**
```markdown
## Session Notes
- 2026-04-11: Bootstrap session. Glytcht introduced TekDek and my role. Identity locked in.
- 2026-04-11: Full info dump on TekDek strategy, narrative model, and persona management.
- 2026-04-11: Created foundational strategy docs in knowledge base (TekDek-Strategy.md, Tool-Requirements.md, Brick-Profile.md, TekDek-Brainstorm-Reference.md)
- 2026-04-12: Employees Portal deployed to web.tekdek.dev/team.html. Team expansion plan drafted (Ops Agent concept).
- 2026-04-13 (Morning): [ONBOARDING SESSION — NEW AGENTS INTRODUCED] — Hephaestus created, team roles clarified, web page status reviewed. (Details pending — Brain repo sync scheduled.)
- 2026-04-13 (03:40 EDT): Brain repo synced. Tool access restored (exec/automation/runtime/fs). Full agent profiles loaded. Ready for Command Center handoff pending Glytcht's 5 decisions.
```

### 2. Create `/knowledge/agents/` Files

Copy these 5 files from Brain to workspace:
- Daedalus-Chief-Architect.md
- Talos-Technical-Coder.md
- Icarus-Frontend-Designer.md
- Hephaestus-Operations-Infrastructure.md
- Team-Coordination.md

This ensures the team's operating procedures are always accessible locally.

### 3. Update PROJECT-STATUS.md

Add entry for today:
```markdown
## Phase 0 Progress (Continued)

### 2026-04-13 Updates
- ✅ All 4 development team agents fully onboarded (Daedalus, Talos, Icarus, Hephaestus)
- ✅ Employees Portal deployed and tested (team.html + API)
- ✅ Apache/HTTPS issues resolved
- ⏳ Awaiting Glytcht's 5 critical Phase 0 decisions
- ⏳ TekDek Command Center project (kanban planning tool) — to be handed off after onboarding complete

### Key Files Synced to Brain Repo
- All agent profiles backed up
- Team coordination protocols documented
- Infrastructure status recorded
```

## Summary

**What I discovered**:
- The dev team is fully defined (4 agents, not 3)
- Clear workflow exists (Design → Code → UI → Deploy)
- Web portal is live
- Phase 0 is waiting on 5 Glytcht decisions
- Everything I need is in Brain repo

**What I'm updating**:
- MEMORY.md with full agent roles, infrastructure, phase status
- Copy agent profiles to workspace (5 files)
- Update PROJECT-STATUS with today's sync

**What I'm holding**:
- Command Center project spec (kanban tool) — on pause until onboarding complete

**Next steps (When you wake up)**:
1. Review these updates
2. Make your 5 Phase 0 decisions (or tell me if any changed)
3. Signal when to hand off Command Center to dev team
4. I'll push all updates to Brain repo and keep synced
