Importance: Medium. Task status: Done (mirror sync clean). Open items: 3, flagged below — pending Sam's decision, not blocking.

What was done

Ran the daily sync that keeps canonical Skills/<x>/SKILL.md files aligned with the Claude/Scheduled/_<x>.md paths scheduled tasks actually load.

All three mirror-map entries are byte-identical between canonical and scheduled path (SHA256 verified):

0 mirrors updated. No commit made — nothing changed, so the skills-mirror-sync: commit was correctly skipped.

Skills_Library cross-check: Skills_Library/ is empty (0 SKILL.md). 116 skill folders in Skills/ with no counterparts. Per the 2026-04-24 deprecation (commit 79035d2), no mirrors auto-created. Informational only.

Why the session ended

Completed normally. Every step in the task body ran; nothing blocked the deliverable.

Open items (need a decision — none urgent)

  1. skill_surface_check.py is missing. Body Step 4 calls routines-build/scripts/skill_surface_check.py --markdown. The routines-build/ folder now contains only outputs/ — no scripts/ subdir, and no copy of the script anywhere under Projects, Claude, or Codex. Looks like a cleanup pass removed it. Step 4 ran in degraded mode with a manual surface enumeration (Projects/Skills 116, Claude/Skills 5, Claude/Scheduled 61 task dirs, ~/.claude/skills 23, .mcp.json + AGENT-TOOL-MANIFEST present). The script needs to be recreated, repointed, or the step retired.
  2. Claude/Scheduled git repo has 143 uncommitted entries. 38 modified tracked files plus ~105 untracked files — mostly cloud-sync duplicate cruft (SKILL 2.md, *.bak-pre-preload, *.v1-backup-2026-05-01) and a handful of untracked task folders. This is pre-existing drift from the preload-header rollout and other agents, not from this run. This task did not commit or clean it — sweeping another agent's in-flight work under a mirror-sync commit would be wrong. Needs a deliberate cleanup-and-commit pass.
  3. Stale doc reference. admin/scheduled-tasks/SKILL-PRELOAD-AND-DRIFT-GUARD.md line 77 still lists Skills_Library/post-run-qa-reflection/SKILL.md as a kept-in-sync mirror. That path does not exist and the surface is deprecated.
