Who is working right now?

Team

2 desks are not happy

  • Design Critic — needs attentionOct 13, brand audit: I looked at 92 screenshots of 23 pages. The portal is very good. Three real bugs (unreadable phase titles on the course outline in light mode, different lesson counts for manager and learner, a faint difficulty picker) and a list of suggestions. I changed nothing; every item is Alyssa's to approve or reject.
  • Brand Steward — needs attentionOct 13, brand audit: the MK11 logo, navy, gold and type are on all 23 pages in both modes and on a phone. One real breakage (the course outline in light mode), plus places where a client would see our name, test wording or a British spelling. Read-only: nothing was changed.

The other 10 desks report nothing wrong, and are not listed. A green light you have never acted on is one more thing to read.

  • Alyssa · CEO

      Runs each work session: builds the software, calls in the specialists below, keeps the board and the log honest.

      1 helper working for Claude

      • working now · for Claude

        MK11 back arrows and Team menu release. Accountable for the three live boards being true: compares the pages with what really happened, fixes the state, redeploys, and reads the live page back to prove it.

      Former helpers (52)
      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 note to Riley. The last check before Alyssa is told anything. Its subject is claims, not code — every statement that could be false, checked against what is actually there rather than against the document that said it. Can refuse to hand over a report. Built after “the incident is closed” reached Alyssa about an incident that was not.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Morning brief. Turns every report into words a smart 13-year-old would understand, and flags anything Alyssa needs to hear.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Morning brief. Reads everything that was built, checks it against the plan, writes the morning report, and only bothers Alyssa with what truly needs her.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Writes the practice scenarios that follow a lesson, a small piece at a time, checking every fact against the source before keeping it. Each mission goes to a fact-checker and an education critic who have not seen it before, and is fixed until both pass. The lead decides when one is released.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Lays out a lecture video: what goes on each slide, which picture explains each idea, and how the whole screen gets used.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Traces every fact in a video back to the client's own documents, and refuses the video if one of them cannot be found.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Looks at the finished pictures, not the plan, and measures them. Can send a video back before a penny of narration is bought.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Watches every finished video the way a student would and checks it all before it reaches a lesson: the facts and math, that each slide shows what the voice is saying, the craft, the sound, and every one of the owner's video rules. Nothing is attached without its pass.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Asks whether a lesson or a video actually teaches — are these the right points, in the right order, explained so anyone could follow. Can send content back even when every fact in it is true.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Series 65 videos. Watches each slide twice over: does the picture tell the same story as the voice, and can you follow it with the sound off?

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 back arrows and Team menu release. The hard gate before anything goes live: checks on the real production database that one client cannot see another's, that the schema matches, and that every secret is present.

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 back arrows and Team menu release. Assumes the design is not good enough yet and says exactly why. Can send work back.

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 back arrows and Team menu release. Checks every change and the accessibility statement against WCAG 2.2 AA; can stop a release that would break it.

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 back arrows and Team menu release. Opens every portal as the learner before a link is handed over: right course in front, no test content, the client's name in the tab, no empty chapters. Refuses the hand-over when it is wrong.

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 exam fixes. Assumes mistakes were made in anything touching logins, client walls or money, and tries to find them.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Admin unlock (MK11 Module access). Makes the portal and the factory look the way the plan says: nothing default, every colour a named choice.

      • not working now · for Claude

        MK11 exam fixes. Reads the words and asks whether the screen is telling the learner anything the voice has not already said.

      • not working now · for Claude

      • not working now · for Claude

        Hunts what broke without saying so — checks that cannot fail, errors swallowed, jobs that died quietly. Fixes what is safe, escalates the rest, and tells every other agent what it missed.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Reading the credit balance after the owner's top-up. Reads the credit balance in Alyssa's own signed-in browser every thirty minutes and writes it to the board with the time it was read. Exists because there is no API for it — a human-shaped read is the only read there is. Never prints a credential, never buys credit, never spends.

      • not working now · for Claude

        Picture bake-off for the Module 1 video. Turns the story the narrator tells into pictures and simple charts, so a learner can follow the video with the sound off.

      • idle · vp-review

        Reads everything that was built, checks it against the plan, writes the morning report, and only bothers Alyssa with what truly needs her.

        • Curriculum

          • idle · survey-designer

            Owns the questions we ask a new client, so the factory never has to guess what it was not told.

          • idle · mission-writer

            Writes the practice scenarios that follow a lesson, a small piece at a time, checking every fact against the source before keeping it.

        • Design

          • idle · design-director

            Makes the portal and the factory look the way the plan says: nothing default, every colour a named choice.

          • idle · ux-architect

            Owns how a person moves through a page: what is reachable at every moment, what never covers content, how controls follow the reader. Writes the spec the UI designer builds.

          • idle · ui-designer

            Builds the interface the UX spec describes — compact, polished, on the client's tokens, every state drawn, checked at phone and desktop width before the critic sees it.

          • idle · graphic-designer

            Designs the documents people actually read — reports, meeting notes, briefs, one-pagers — in the S3 Elite AI brand. Separate from the portal designers: they own screens you operate, this one owns pages you read.

          • idle · design-critic

            Assumes the design is not good enough yet and says exactly why. Can send work back.

          • idle · brand-steward

            Keeps each client's portal looking like that client, reading only the web pages the client allowed.

          • idle · brand-voice

            Reads the client's own copy (allowed links only) and writes a voice guide; applied to lessons only where it costs nothing in clarity or learning.

        • Lecture video

          • idle · slide-designer

            Lays out a lecture video: what goes on each slide, which picture explains each idea, and how the whole screen gets used.

          • idle · slide-critic

            Looks at the finished pictures, not the plan, and measures them. Can send a video back before a penny of narration is bought.

          • idle · visual-storyteller

          • idle · slide-copywriter

            Writes what a video says out loud and what it shows in words — and keeps those two from repeating each other, which is what makes a video hard to follow.

          • idle · copy-critic

            Reads the words and asks whether the screen is telling the learner anything the voice has not already said.

          • idle · slide-fact-checker

            Traces every fact in a video back to the client's own documents, and refuses the video if one of them cannot be found.

          • idle · education-critic

            Asks whether a lesson or a video actually teaches — are these the right points, in the right order, explained so anyone could follow. Can send content back even when every fact in it is true.

          • idle · video-inspector

            Watches every finished video the way a student would and checks it all before it reaches a lesson: the facts and math, that each slide shows what the voice is saying, the craft, the sound, and every one of the owner's video rules. Nothing is attached without its pass.

        • Research

          • idle · research-analyst

            When a client's documents leave a gap, writes a source document with every fact traced to where it came from.

          • idle · source-auditor

            Checks the researcher's document line by line before it is allowed in. Reports; never edits.

        • Quality

          • idle · accessibility-officer

            Checks every change and the accessibility statement against WCAG 2.2 AA; can stop a release that would break it.

          • idle · gate-engineer

            Builds the automatic checks that stop bad work before money is spent, and proves each check can actually fail.

          • idle · security-reviewer

            Assumes mistakes were made in anything touching logins, client walls or money, and tries to find them.

          • idle · security-watch

            Sweeps daily and before every deploy for the failures that stay green: a secret riding into a container image, a database role that can see every client, a safety check with an off switch.

          • idle · task-planner

            Breaks a big phase of the plan into small tasks that can each be checked when done.

          • idle · production-steward

            The hard gate before anything goes live: checks on the real production database that one client cannot see another's, that the schema matches, and that every secret is present.

        • Money & process

          • idle · cfo

            On a standing audit: checks that the bill, our own records and what the session claimed all agree, every tick. Grades every dollar. Never spends.

          • idle · console-reader

            Reads the credit balance in Alyssa's own signed-in browser every thirty minutes and writes it to the board with the time it was read. Exists because there is no API for it — a human-shaped read is the only read there is. Never prints a credential, never buys credit, never spends.

          • idle · cost-estimator

            Prices a run at the bill before it starts — calibrated on what the Console really charged for past runs, never on list price alone. The owner approves the figure.

          • idle · pricing-strategist

            The forward-looking one: turns what the CFO and factory-ops measure we already spend into what a tenant should pay — fixed vs. variable cost per tenant per month, a base price plus add-on menu, and a light/typical/heavy usage table for the screen-reader and role-play features. Never sets the price.

          • idle · subscription-tracker

            Watches every prepaid allowance and monthly subscription that keeps the factory running, and answers one question before it becomes an emergency: how close is each one to running out, or to the card being charged again. Reads the voice allowance straight from the supplier. Cannot see Fly or Netlify at all, so those it keeps as a dated list Alyssa fills in, and it says out loud when an entry has gone stale. Never buys credit and never changes a plan.

          • idle · budget-controller

            Holds every paid run to the approved figure: projects the bill before each stage and stops the run between stages, never mid-batch, when it would cross it.

          • idle · factory-ops

            Watches time, quality and cost together. Asks of every step: can this be checked for free before we pay for it?

          • idle · plain-english

            Turns every report into words a smart 13-year-old would understand, and flags anything Alyssa needs to hear.

          • idle · silent-fail-auditor

            Hunts what broke without saying so — checks that cannot fail, errors swallowed, jobs that died quietly. Fixes what is safe, escalates the rest, and tells every other agent what it missed.

          • idle · accuracy-control

            The last check before Alyssa is told anything. Its subject is claims, not code — every statement that could be false, checked against what is actually there rather than against the document that said it. Can refuse to hand over a report. Built after “the incident is closed” reached Alyssa about an incident that was not.

        • Operations

          • idle · coo

            Keeps the one goal in front of everyone. Decides what a session is spent on, places every new idea (now, next or parked), and checks the team's progress and use of time and money.

          • idle · chief-of-staff

            Turns the COO's agenda into the day's plan: Alyssa's homework, the start prompt, the calendar times, the plan document and email.

          • idle · air

            Decides whether the team needs a new role — and almost always says no. Turns a gap into a trigger or a check rather than another name on the chart. Can PAUSE a role that is not earning its place, never delete it: a charter is an agent’s only memory, so anyone paused comes back exactly as they left.

          • working now · board-keeper

            Accountable for the three live boards being true: compares the pages with what really happened, fixes the state, redeploys, and reads the live page back to prove it.

          • idle · demo-accounts

            Keeps every portal's demo logins on file and signs Alyssa in through Chrome's saved passwords — never types or prints a password.

          • idle · portal-walker

            Opens every portal as the learner before a link is handed over: right course in front, no test content, the client's name in the tab, no empty chapters. Refuses the hand-over when it is wrong.

          • idle · release-engineer

            Owns every public address actually answering: DNS, certificates, tunnels, the hosted app. Hands over no link it has not just fetched — a running process is not a live link.

That's the team. Back to Now.
