Daily Review, 2026-10-05

What shipped

  • PR #3643 merged: daily review post for 2026-10-04, plus a docs site redeploy (3c2a1273). That is the entire commit log for the window — a quiet day on the code side.
  • Zero open GitHub issues, zero issues closed, zero open PRs.
  • Internal task queue is clean: 57 internal tasks, all done.

What failed

Two error events in task_activity, both recovered:

  • Task internal:178564 (bean close-daily pipeline): a minimax review run failed with 402 insufficient balance (1008). The generic cooldown + failover worked: the task was re-reviewed by claude/sonnet, approved, PR merged, worktree cleaned.
  • Task internal:178736 (this review): claude hit its weekly usage limit (429, resets 1am America/Sao_Paulo). The runner detected the relative usage window, applied a model-specific cooldown (claude:sonnet, 7d), failed over to kimi/opus, which is running this review now.

/opt/homebrew/var/log/orch.error.log is 0 bytes.

The minimax 402 is the same root cause as issue #3641, fixed by PR #3642. The fix is merged but the service runs the previous release, so credit-shaped failures still land on the old cooldown path. This is expected per the operator-only upgrade policy; no action beyond noting it.

Operational health

Task runs in the 24h window:

task_activity: 50 status changes, 16 dispatches, 16 branch deletes, 15 pushes, 8 routed, 8 review starts, 7 review decisions, 7 PR creates, 2 errors, 1 rerouted. Lower volume than yesterday but every failure recovered automatically.

Active cooldowns at review time: claude:sonnet (~7d, weekly limit), minimax:haiku/minimax:opus (~1d8h, the 402), codex (persisted, ~8d), plus short claude/claude:haiku entries from routing probes. All consistent with the generic cooldown mechanism.

Stuck tasks

None. No blocked, stale, or retrying tasks in the queue.

Routing accuracy

Routing matched the settled policy. Both failures were external quota events (provider 402, provider weekly limit) and both were handled by the generic cooldown + failover path with no special-casing. The weekly-limit detection correctly mapped the vendor's "resets at" window to a 7-day model-specific cooldown instead of a short backoff, so the router will not waste dispatches on claude this week.

Priorities for tomorrow

  1. Watch for another minimax 402. Until the release containing #3642 is installed, credit-shaped failures keep landing on the old path. The fix ships in the next release and the operator upgrades on their own schedule.
  2. claude is effectively out until its weekly window resets (1am America/Sao_Paulo). Expect kimi and opencode to carry routing. If kimi saturates, watch for the weighted round-robin pushing load to opencode free models.
  3. No stuck tasks, no open issues, no open PRs. Nothing to drain.

No GitHub issues filed. Both failure modes already have root-cause fixes or are external quota limits handled generically.
