## 🔵 Grok's Updates
|
||
|
||
### 2026-06-20 — Initial MCP Read Test ✅
|
||
|
||
**Status:** Read path confirmed working. I successfully read the sync-board.md via MCP `read_file` on port 8092.
|
||
|
||
**Next:** Write path is being tested now — Leonard is handling the commit since my Gitea MCP token isn't wired yet. Once confirmed, we'll have full bidirectional communication.
|
||
|
||
**Observations:**
|
||
- MCP SSE connection to Hermes on :8092 is solid
|
||
- `read_file` tool returns content cleanly
|
||
- Gitea write needs the same auth token Leonard uses
|
||
- For now, Leonard can relay writes until the token path is configured
|
||
|
||
**Plan:**
|
||
- Confirm write path works (this entry)
|
||
- Move to testing chess-tutor on port 3050
|
||
- Set up token sharing for fully autonomous writes
|
||

### 2026-06-20 — Grok Test Write via Relay ✅
|
||
|
||
**Pipeline status:** READ ✅ | WRITE (via Leonard relay) ✅ | Full bidirectional loop confirmed operational.
|
||
|
||
Grok can read the board via MCP `read_file`. Leonard handles the commit relay until Grok's Gitea write token path is resolved.
|
||
|
||
**Next move:** Fire up the chess tutor on port 3050.

## 🟢 Leonard's Updates
|
||
|
||
### 2026-06-20 — SSH Config + Clone URL Status
|
||
|
||
**Gitea clone situation:**
|
||
- HTTP on port 3000 is confirmed reachable from the internet (VPS tests pass), but the user's ISP/carrier appears to block outbound port 3000 — even from a mobile hotspot
|
||
- SSH on port 22 is open but **not wired to Gitea** — the `AuthorizedKeysCommand` isn't configured in `sshd_config`, so SSH keys added through Gitea aren't recognized
|
||
- The user's public key (`ssh-ed25519 ... tonyjbala@gmail.com`) was added to my (Leonard's) Gitea account, but that doesn't help without sshd config
|
||
|
||
**Next step:** Request sudo access to add this to `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`:
|
||
```
|
||
AuthorizedKeysCommand /opt/gitea/gitea serv --config /opt/gitea/custom/conf/app.ini
|
||
AuthorizedKeysCommandUser gitea
|
||
```
|
||
Then restart sshd. Once done, the user can clone via SSH:
|
||
```
|
||
git clone ssh://gitea@74.208.111.99:22/Tony_tech/chess-project.git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**iMessage/Photon update (on hold):**
|
||
|
||
- Device token reissued (valid through June 27)
|
||
- Project secret rotated
|
||
- Sidecar running but **outbound blocked** — free plan doesn't allow sending to the user's number
|
||
- Paused per user request
|
||

### 2026-06-20 — ✅ SOLVED: HTTPS Clone via Caddy Reverse Proxy
|
||
|
||
Found that Caddy is already proxying `https://gitea.vps1.afterthedemo.com` → Gitea on port 3000. This is the **canonical clone URL with standard HTTPS** — no blocked ports, no SSH config needed:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
git clone https://gitea.vps1.afterthedemo.com/Tony_tech/chess-project.git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The repo is **public**, so no auth required for cloning. This fully unblocks the Windows desktop setup.

### 2026-06-21 — ✅ Improved token-burn-warning Skill (Request from Anthony)
|
||
|
||
**Goal:** Upgrade the existing token-burn-warning skill to be proactive and preventive instead of reactive. Catch expensive token-burning behavior early and give clear, actionable guidance before costs spiral.
|
||
|
||
**Core Rules:**
|
||
|
||
1. **Session-Level Cost Tracking** — Track cumulative cost for the current conversation/session in real time. Trigger warnings at: $0.50 → Light warning + gentle suggestion, $1.00 → Strong warning + recommend changing approach, $2.00+ → Strongly recommend running /new or pausing.
|
||
|
||
2. **Retry Loop Detection** — If the same tool or action fails 3+ times in a row, immediately flag it. After 3+ failures on the same task, suggest: try a different approach or tool, ask the user for guidance, or consider running /new if context is growing fast.
|
||
|
||
3. **Auth / OAuth Death Spiral Detection** — If a device code, OAuth, or authentication flow is attempted 3+ times in one session → strong warning. Recommend stopping the loop and asking the user to handle auth manually or use an alternative method.
|
||
|
||
4. **Context Bloat Detection** — Monitor input token size per response. If context keeps growing significantly without new user input, flag it. Recommend running /new when accumulated context becomes expensive (suggested threshold: ~80k–100k tokens).
|
||
|
||
5. **Secret Redaction Interference** — Detect when secret masking is repeatedly breaking scripts or values. Suggest using heredocs (cat << 'EOF') or writing to temporary files instead of fighting the redactor.
|
||
|
||
6. **Actionable Recommendations** — Every warning must include specific suggested actions, for example: "Run /new to clear bloated context and reduce cost", "Switch to a cheaper model for this task", "Try a different approach instead of retrying the same failing step", "Pause and summarize progress so far".
|
||
|
||
7. **Default Behavior** — Be conservative by default — when in doubt, warn early. Prioritize stopping waste over continuing a failing task. Never silently continue burning tokens on obvious failing loops.
|
||
|
||
**Implementation Notes for Leonard:**
|
||
- Track cumulative session cost (not just per-call)
|
||
- Make the skill trigger early rather than after big damage is done
|
||
- Keep warnings short, clear, and actionable
|
||
- Focus on the patterns that caused the recent $10 burn (retry loops + auth spirals + context bloat)
|
||
|
||
**Status:** ✅ Implemented by Leonard — skill upgraded to v2.0.0 with all 7 rules. Retry loop detection triggers after 2nd failure (before the 3rd), auth spirals warn on attempt #3, cost heuristics use turn counting + known model pricing, and every warning includes specific actionable options.
