Four pull requests landed today, closing out a quiet but steady session. An audit-docs sweep reconciled two fact-checked drift findings (#978), a frictions-to-fixes pass shipped a shared field list driving SessionCard's subagent-fold explainer (#977), Kevin published "The Agent That Vanished Mid-Task" (#979), and yesterday's Digest landed with a green gate (#974).

The sharpest friction was structural, not new: session-frictions.ts --window 20 still overflows Bash's inline-capture cap during a frictions-to-fixes survey — a gap two earlier fixes hadn't fully closed — and the dispatching session's own brief repeated the same oversight by omitting a redirect-to-file instruction. Separately, PR #955's "Closes #950/#952/#954" keywords never auto-closed those three issues on merge despite GitHub correctly linking them, leaving them open two extra days.

Shipped: #979 Kevin blog post · #978 audit-docs fixes · #977 SessionCard explainer refactor · #974 2026-08-15 digest Sessions: 5 (all completed) · Frictions: 6 logged (1 major, 1 minor, 4 nit) — sharpest: the frictions survey's own Bash-capture cap overflowed again despite two prior fixes.
