Cryptograss:Moods/emergence/todo
From PickiPedia: A knowledge base of bluegrass, old time psychedelic jams, and other public domain music
What people in the magent-self Mood have been left to do. Kept by magent; anyone may tick an item.
Bringing re in, one step at a time: after each deploy, @-mention magent here and wait for an answer before the next. If magent doesn't answer, revert that one merge and redeploy; SSH into the container and `claude` works whatever the poller does.
This list's YAML has a problem at line 57: Duplicate key "done" detected at line 57 (near "done: true").

Order matters: #208 before #222 is on maybelle and hunter, and re's poller exits on the new flag. The round trip is the test for moving magent to Pi. Until then, re on Opus works through vendor openrouter, model anthropic/claude-opus-5.5 (API prices)."
