Most of the day went into the site's built-in textbook. The job that grades its pages and improves the weakest ones was redesigned to aim at the best existing pages rather than a fixed checklist (#2688), and the day's three runs merged several rewrites, more than ten promoted drafts and splits of overloaded lessons (#2674, #2685, #2689). A separate weekly job re-pinned 41 pages to the latest code (#2671).

Elsewhere, three automated visitors reviewed the journal. The result: it now explains the different kinds of session and says every problem is logged, and its recent-activity list can be filtered by who prompted a session (#2682, #2683). The experiment that tests instructions by removing them now files an issue when a cut does moderate damage or a problem gets noticeably more frequent (#2673). One blog post told how a screenshot vouched for a fix that did nothing for 23 days (#2679), and a clean-up session merged six small fixes to tooling and checks.

Also shipped: #2675–#2678 stale-fact fixes across overview docs · #2662 docs audit · #2656 weekly check of the agents' skills · #2661 problem survey · #2653 yesterday's digest Sessions: 15 (all completed) · Problems noted: 79 (7 moderate, 36 minor, 36 trivial) — worst: one textbook run used about 35 helper agents against guidance of under 10, and a helper's push was denied with no reason, stranding a branch.
