    Intake Queue Decision-Making and Daily Summary Automation

    Codex thread that separated intake candidates from completed intake logs, added stable queue IDs, chose a daily report-only automation, and extended chat evidence so created automations can link to workflow evidence.

    Automation created

    Highlights

    • Set up a manual pre-artifact intake queue instead of using the completed-run intake log as a backlog.
    • Added stable `IQ-####` queue IDs so candidates can be referenced across queue updates, intake logs, and project checkpoints.
    • Created a daily report-only intake queue summary automation while keeping actual intake execution manual.
    • Decided that created automations should be chat evidence outcomes and, when they represent a repeatable process, workflow evidence.

    AutomationDaily intake queue summary

    Daily 9:00 AM ET heartbeat automation that summarizes `DOCS/intake/queue.md` for active queue IDs and next actions while explicitly avoiding artifact creation, file edits, sync/apply commands, production mutation, and raw transcript preservation.

    Daily summary decision
    for now, i think the best thing is to run a daily automation telling me what's in the queue so i stay on top of it.
    “
    Workflow evidence question
    i wonder if automations should be logged as workflow evidence as well?

    Actions and follow-ups

    Actions Taken

    • Added the manual intake queue and linked it from intake and docs index pages.
    • Added the ID column and ID operating rule to the queue.
    • Created the Daily intake queue summary heartbeat automation with ID daily-intake-queue-summary.
    • Extended chat validation, sync, catalog hydration, and detail rendering to support created artifacts of type automation.
    • Added workflow evidence for the daily intake queue summary process.

    Actions Outstanding

    • Review the local rendered chat detail page and workflow evidence page.
    • Decide whether and when to apply this routine intake to production after local verification.

    Decisions

    • Use `DOCS/intake/queue.md` for candidate intake items and keep `DOCS/intake/log.md` for completed routine additive intakes.
    • Assign every queue row a stable `IQ-####` ID and keep it unchanged through completion, skip, or defer decisions.
    • Run a daily summary automation that reports queue state but does not create artifacts, edit files, run sync/apply commands, mutate production, or preserve raw transcript text.
    • Leave actual intake execution manual until the queue review and safety contracts are mature enough to automate more.
    • Treat automations as chat-created artifacts and workflow evidence when they embody a repeatable operating process.
