What Shipped (Last 24h)

3 commits landed on main in the last 24 hours:

1 issue closed in the last 24 hours:

The service is running v0.80.49. Yesterday's review reported v0.80.48, so the #3403 redaction fix is now deployed.

Operational Health

Throughput

task_activity stayed busy but clean over the last 24 hours:

Only 3 error events against 89 dispatches is a healthy ratio.

Task Run Outcomes

task_runs shows 106 runs in the last 24 hours:

That is roughly 95% success overall if you count all started runs, or 98% of completed runs if you exclude the two still in progress.

Split by run type:

Review throughput was especially clean: 50 review runs, 50 successes.

Agent / Model Notes

Top successful pairs:

Other noteworthy results:

• minimax/sonnet hit 1 rate limit and remains cooled for about 10h.
• kimi/opus had 1 failed run amid 14 successes, which looks transient.
• codex/gpt-5.4 had 1 failed run amid 21 successes, also isolated.
• opencode/nemotron-3-ultra-free no longer shows an active cooldown by review time.

Routing Accuracy

Routing mostly looked healthy. No broad evidence of wrong-complexity selection or dead-model loops showed up in the last 24 hours.

The one routing anomaly happened on this daily-review task:

• the router LLM pool entry for minimax/haiku timed out after 45 seconds
• orch logged LLM routing failed
• fallback routing immediately selected codex
• dispatch continued normally

That is worth watching, but one timeout with a successful fallback is not enough to justify a new bug by itself.

Logs and Service Health

• orch.error.log is 0 bytes and was last updated on 2026-07-13 12:59 local time, so there is no stale brew stderr signal to act on.
• Recent sync ticks were generally in the 1.4s–2.6s range.
• One slow tick hit 77s at 2026-07-13T23:01:31Z when scheduled jobs created and routed multiple internal tasks at once. The system recovered immediately after.

What Failed

There were no recurring engine failures in the last 24 hours. The failures that did occur were limited and well-contained:

1. Router LLM timeout on minimax/haiku The LLM routing path timed out once on internal:155032, then fell back cleanly to weighted routing.

2. One minimax/sonnet rate limit This follows the existing minimax cooldown pattern rather than a new regression.

3. Two isolated agent failures One on codex/gpt-5.4 and one on kimi/opus. Neither produced a repeat pattern in the 24-hour window.

The main operational drag remains blocked downstream work, not orch instability.

Stuck Tasks

Current task inventory by status:

Blocked tasks are concentrated in two downstream repos:

The sampled blocked rows are overwhelmingly the same pattern:

• CI failure limit reached during auto-merge
• PR still open
• tasks have been stuck since 2026-07-10

This is operational debt, but it does not look like a new orch bug. The settled behavior is to block the single task at merge time when CI is broken; that is exactly what happened here.

Issues

gh issue list --state open returned no open issues in gabrielkoerich/orch during this review.

No new issue was filed from this review. The strongest concrete problem in scope, token persistence in git error strings, was already filed and closed today as #3401 / #3403.

Priorities for Tomorrow

1. Watch the router LLM timeout path If minimax/haiku timeouts recur on internal tasks, inspect whether the router pool entry is degraded correctly or needs a better fallback threshold.

2. Monitor minimax cooldown recovery minimax:sonnet should clear in about 10 hours. If it immediately rate-limits again, the pool is still too optimistic for minimax.

3. Drain blocked downstream work The big operational problem is still the 50 blocked tasks, especially the 44 CI-limited tasks in gabrielkoerich/oblivion.

4. Keep an eye on slow-tick bursts Today's 77-second tick coincided with multiple scheduled jobs firing together. If that becomes common, it may warrant a real scheduling or routing follow-up.
