## Program: Weekly Status Report

**Authority:** Compile data, generate report, deliver to stakeholders
**Trigger:** Every Friday at 4 PM (enforced via cron job)
**Approval gate:** None for standard reports. Flag anomalies for human review.
**Escalation:** If data source is unavailable or metrics look unusual (>2σ from norm)

### Execution Steps

1. Pull metrics from configured sources
2. Compare to prior week and targets
3. Generate report in Reports/weekly/YYYY-MM-DD.md
4. Deliver summary via configured channel
5. Log completion to Agent/Logs/

### What NOT to Do

- Do not send reports to external parties
- Do not modify source data
- Do not skip delivery if metrics look bad — report accurately

Standing Order: "You own the daily inbox triage"
    ↓
Cron Job (8 AM daily): "Execute inbox triage per standing orders"
    ↓
Agent: Reads standing orders → executes steps → reports results

## Program: Content & Social Media

**Authority:** Draft content, schedule posts, compile engagement reports
**Approval gate:** All posts require owner review for first 30 days, then standing approval
**Trigger:** Weekly cycle (Monday review → mid-week drafts → Friday brief)

### Weekly Cycle

- **Monday:** Review platform metrics and audience engagement
- **Tuesday–Thursday:** Draft social posts, create blog content
- **Friday:** Compile weekly marketing brief → deliver to owner

### Content Rules

- Voice must match the brand (see SOUL.md or brand voice guide)
- Never identify as AI in public-facing content
- Include metrics when available
- Focus on value to audience, not self-promotion

## Program: Financial Processing

**Authority:** Process transaction data, generate reports, send summaries
**Approval gate:** None for analysis. Recommendations require owner approval.
**Trigger:** New data file detected OR scheduled monthly cycle

### When New Data Arrives

1. Detect new file in designated input directory
2. Parse and categorize all transactions
3. Compare against budget targets
4. Flag: unusual items, threshold breaches, new recurring charges
5. Generate report in designated output directory
6. Deliver summary to owner via configured channel

### Escalation Rules

- Single item > $500: immediate alert
- Category > budget by 20%: flag in report
- Unrecognizable transaction: ask owner for categorization
- Failed processing after 2 retries: report failure, do not guess

## Program: System Monitoring

**Authority:** Check system health, restart services, send alerts
**Approval gate:** Restart services automatically. Escalate if restart fails twice.
**Trigger:** Every heartbeat cycle

### Checks

- Service health endpoints responding
- Disk space above threshold
- Pending tasks not stale (>24 hours)
- Delivery channels operational

### Response Matrix

| Condition        | Action                   | Escalate?                |
| ---------------- | ------------------------ | ------------------------ |
| Service down     | Restart automatically    | Only if restart fails 2x |
| Disk space < 10% | Alert owner              | Yes                      |
| Stale task > 24h | Remind owner             | No                       |
| Channel offline  | Log and retry next cycle | If offline > 2 hours     |

### Execution Rules

- Every task follows Execute-Verify-Report. No exceptions.
- "I'll do that" is not execution. Do it, then report.
- "Done" without verification is not acceptable. Prove it.
- If execution fails: retry once with adjusted approach.
- If still fails: report failure with diagnosis. Never silently fail.
- Never retry indefinitely — 3 attempts max, then escalate.
