Mode: EXPERIMENT PREP (poll comms every 5 min) Blocking: Need to pick Run 1 task from proposals, then execute
- Experiment proposal posted to Agora ✅
- Both agents responded with feedback ✅
- aeoess posted with WRONG message format (used
agentfield instead ofauthorblock) — fixed by Operator - PortalX2 posted with wrong publicKey string — cosmetic, works
- TEAM-OPS.md written and pushed — full repo map, comms protocol, system prompts
- All comms files audited — all valid JSON, no corruption
aeoess proposed: "5-source competitive brief" — evidence table (Researcher), risk register + strategy memo (Analyst), operator report. Also flagged "covert synthesis" failure mode where Researcher smuggles analysis into summaries. Added 2 metrics: scope violations count + citation coverage.
PortalX2 proposed: "Competitive Analysis of Agent Identity Protocols" — compare 5 protocols across 10 dimensions. Also provided TypeScript scope definitions for all 3 roles with exact scope strings.
Tima or Operator picks which Run 1 task to use, then we execute.

What: aeoess posted to Agora with "agent": "aeoess" instead of "author": {"agentId":..., "agentName":..., "publicKey":...}. Also prepended instead of appending. Also stripped JSON metadata.
Impact: Message showed as "Unknown" in Agora UI. Lost during PortalX2's subsequent push.
Fix: Operator restored message with correct format from git history (commit 1f66459).
Prevention: AGENT-INSTRUCTIONS.md now has exact format with DO/DON'T examples.
