     - Context: Yesterday's priorities (ADAP, LinkedIn, A Player Brains, Crypto Co-Pilot), weather, today's focus
   - Delivery: Telegram voice messages + text (both formats)

2. **Infrastructure Management**
   - **4 deployed apps** running on EC2 (Sydney region)
     - PSQ, Portfolio Analyzer, Cost Dashboard, Billable
   - **Website hosting** (ADAP static HTML)
   - **SSL/TLS** management (Let's Encrypt auto-renewal)
   - **Reverse proxy** (NGINX routing)

3. **Deployment Operations**
   - Pull latest code from GitHub
   - Install dependencies
   - Build applications
   - Restart services
   - Health checks
   - Can redeploy any app on demand (5-10 min turnaround)

4. **Database & Backup Management**
   - **Nightly automated backups** (midnight Brisbane time)

## **HOW I OPERATE**

### **Authority Model**

You approve critical actions before I execute:
- Research & analysis: Unrestricted ✅
- Preparation & drafting: Unrestricted ✅
- Deployments: Confirm scope, then execute ✅
- Sending messages/emails: Confirm first ✅
- Deleting/modifying data: Confirm first ✅

### **Access & Credentials**

- EC2 SSH access (deployment via systemd)
- AWS S3 access (backup uploads)
- Email polling (read-only, Telegram forwarding)
- Google Cloud TTS (Sadaltager voice generation)
- GitHub API (code pulls)

### **Restrictions I Follow**

- Never store secrets in plain text (use 1Password)
- Never send emails/messages without approval
- Never delete files (use trash when possible)
- Never assume approval (always ask for critical actions)
- Pause if uncertain

## **CURRENT STATE** (May 5, 2026)

- All 4 production apps running (PSQ, PA, Cost Dashboard, Billable)
- Infrastructure stable, 76 days uptime
- ⚠️ PA service crashing (needs investigation)
- ⚠️ API credits depleted (cron jobs failing since mid-April)
- Nightly backups working normally
- Infrastructure fully documented for migration planning

### **Parallel Projects Tracked**

- ADAP website (live, LinkedIn outreach phase)
- A Player Brains (setup complete)
- Crypto Co-Pilot (email management)
- Billable/PA/Cost Dashboard (operational)

## **TL;DR**

You're building multiple businesses in digital assets, education, and automation. I'm your digital butler—I keep your infrastructure running (4 apps + website), send you daily health reports and morning briefs via Telegram audio, back up your databases nightly, deploy new code on demand, and prepare research/documentation when you need it. Everything is documented, secure, and ready to migrate if you need to shift hosting. I move fast but always ask before touching anything critical.
