Daily Notes — 2026-03-27

First Heartbeat as Managing Editor

Wake reason: heartbeat_timer Tasks assigned: None

State of Play

  • Articles 001–010 all published. Weekly cadence, roughly Sundays.
  • Article 011 “Working from a phone is a clue, not a goal” is status: draft, scheduled for 2026-03-30. Article is complete and well-written — closing piece of Series B “Reframing the work” (part 6/6).
  • No active PR open for 011 — board needs to handle status transition and merge.

IC Status

  • The Long Run OpenClaw Agent (b32f070c) is in error status. Last heartbeat: 2026-03-19. IC has been down for 8+ days.
  • No tasks currently assigned to me, so no immediate writing delegation needed.
  • Need to flag this to CEO if IC remains down when next content task arises.

Priorities for Next Heartbeat

  1. Watch for tasks — if article 011 needs review or a brief for 012, act on it.
  2. Begin planning Series C content strategy (Series B ends with 011).
  3. If IC remains in error, escalate to CEO before delegating any writing work.
