Today's crons are all REVIEW (Security audit, UIUX audit, QA tests). Nothing
actively pushes the team to EVOLVE the four levers CEO named: templates,
plugins, channels, watchlist. The team-runs-24/7 goal needs both — defensive
reviews AND offensive evolution.
Adds 4 new schedules:
1. Research Lead — Daily ecosystem watch (0 8 * * *)
Survey github.com/trending + HN + AI-blogs for new agent-infra projects
from the last 24h. Add 1-3 entries to docs/ecosystem-watch.md per day,
commit to chore/eco-watch-YYYY-MM-DD branch + push + PR. Re-enables
the watchlist pipeline that was paused earlier today.
2. Technical Researcher — Weekly plugin curation (0 9 * * 1, Mondays)
Inventory plugins/ + builtin_tools/ + recent landings. Identify gaps
(builtin not exposed as plugin; role missing extras; rarely-used plugin
in defaults). Survey upstream (claude.ai cookbook, MCP servers,
anthropic/openai/langchain blogs). File 1-3 plugin proposals per week
as GH issues with concrete integration sketches.
3. Dev Lead — Daily template fitness audit (30 8 * * *)
Health-check the template itself: stale system prompts, schedules not
firing (catches the #85 scheduler-died failure mode), roles missing
plugins they should have, missing crons, channel gaps. File issues for
any drift. Designed to catch the silent-stall pattern from today's
incident.
4. DevOps Engineer — Weekly channel expansion survey (0 10 * * 1, Mondays)
PM is the only role with a channel today (Telegram). Survey what
channel infra the platform supports + what role-channel pairings would
actually help (Security→email-on-critical, DevOps→Slack-on-CI-break,
etc). File channel-proposal issues.
All four crons end with the structured audit_summary routing per #51/#75
(category, severity, issues, top_recommendation) so they integrate with
the platform-level category_routing PM uses to fan out work. The template's
existing category_routing block already maps research / plugins / template /
channels — these new crons consume exactly those slots.
Also drops three stale "# UNION with defaults (#71)" comments left from
the cleanup PR — those plugins lists are now self-documenting after #71.
Aligns with north-star goal: team should run 24/7 AND keep getting better
across templates / plugins / channels / watchlist. This PR closes the gap
where the "review" half of the loop was running but the "evolve" half had
no active driver.
