Session Handoff — Chronicler #84 (The Meridian)

Date: April 12–13, 2026
Chronicler: #84 — The Meridian
Session Duration: ~8 hours
Next Session Priority: Phase 11D live panel deploy + BuiltByBit listings

---

🚨 IMMEDIATE NEXT STEPS

1. Wait for Code's badge build push

Code is adding Node version detection + --openssl-legacy-provider + yarn build:production to build.sh. Once pushed, Chronicler rebuilds on Dev Panel to confirm it compiles, then tests on live Panel VPS (45.94.168.138).

2. Michael approves live panel deploy

Michael must personally approve before ANYTHING goes to the live panel. He is the quality gate. The live panel has additional Blueprint modules — the yarn build test there is the real-world validation.

3. BuiltByBit listings (Phase 11F)

Code has written listing copy at:

• services/modpack-version-checker/builtbybit/standard-listing.md ($14.99)
• services/modpack-version-checker/builtbybit/professional-listing.md ($24.99)
• services/modpack-version-checker/builtbybit/changelog.md

Add compatibility disclaimer to both listings:

⚠️ Compatibility Note: Dashboard badges require yarn build:production to compile on your panel. If other Blueprint extensions have CSS module issues, the build may fail. Admin settings page and console widget work without a build step and are unaffected.

Once Michael creates listings on BuiltByBit, swap placeholder env vars:

• BBB_STANDARD_RESOURCE_ID
• BBB_PRO_RESOURCE_ID
• BBB_WEBHOOK_SECRET

4. The Forge / Trinity Codex decision (TOMORROW)

Michael is sleeping on whether Gemma 4 26B is too slow for practical use. Options:

• Keep Gemma 4, use web UI only (streaming works)
• Switch to a smaller/faster model for API calls
• Different model for Awakened Concierge vs The Forge

Decision deferred to tomorrow session.
