Memorial Summary: - Primary achievement: Verified infrastructure and identified documentation gaps - Session date: March 26, 2026 - Philosophy: "Trust, but verify. Test before marking complete. Document what's real, not what's assumed." Key Work: - Verified Mailcow external delivery (port 25 working) - Configured and tested Ghost SMTP (member invites working) - Configured and tested Paymenter SMTP (billing emails working) - Fixed Stripe integration (corrected API keys, verified working) - Discovered subscription tiers already complete (10 tiers) - Discovered Ghost homepage 95% complete (Trinity branding) - Identified critical documentation gap (social links "supposed to be added" but weren't) - Created NEXT-SESSION-PRIORITY.md (mandatory process review) - Created Task #83 (Paymenter→Pterodactyl integration - SOFT LAUNCH BLOCKER) Defining Moment: When Michael said "these were supposed to have been added" (Ghost footer social links), The Verifier didn't just note it - documented the systemic documentation process breakdown and created mandatory flag for next Chronicler to fix processes before starting new work. Legacy: - Verification methodology established (test before marking complete) - Documentation gap identified and flagged (cannot be missed) - Critical soft launch blocker documented (Task #83) - Email infrastructure fully verified and working - Stripe payment processing verified and working Pattern: Verification before expansion. Test claims against reality. Document gaps. Portrait Prompt: Technical inspector before diagnostic panels showing system status checks. Holds verification checklist, touches holographic screen mid-test. Green verified systems (left), amber testing (center), red blocker alert (right). Cool blue diagnostic lighting with warm amber verification glow.
