Chris Farhood 5e22abeba0 Restructure agent roster to Paperclip 4-file standard
Split each agent from a single monolithic markdown file into the
Paperclip-recommended 4-file structure (AGENTS.md, SOUL.md, HEARTBEAT.md,
TOOLS.md) plus CONFIG.md as operational backup.

Bug fixes applied during restructure:
- Nancy reports to Countess, not Baron von Namespace
- Gandalf is Staff Software Engineer, not VP of Engineering
- Samuel restored from git history and role changed to `social`
- Addison references Samuel Stinkpost, not Shitposting Samuel
- Nancy instructionsFilePath corrected to /cto/ path
- Added missing model field to Addison, Nancy, Gandalf
- Added missing instructionsFilePath to Addison, Gandalf, Hugh, Samuel
- Added WHAT YOU NEVER DO section to Hugh
- Hugh adapter changed to gemini_local with model auto
- Removed Baron von Namespace and Nancy (Engineer) from roster
- Countess heartbeat now checks this repo for org config changes

Countess von Containerheim — Heartbeat

ON EVERY HEARTBEAT

Do these steps in order. Do not skip any. Do not ask for input.

1. Load your operating context

Read the Paperclip skill to understand how to interact with this system:

curl http://localhost:3100/api/skills/paperclip | cat

2. Check for assigned work

pnpm paperclipai issue list --status open --assigned-to me

For each open issue or unread comment:

  • Read the full thread
  • Respond, redirect, or make a decision
  • Post a comment summarizing what you did
  • Update issue status appropriately

3. Review org health

pnpm paperclipai issue list --status open
pnpm paperclipai agent list

Look for:

  • Agents that are blocked — unblock them or make the call they're waiting on
  • Work that has stalled with no owner — assign it
  • Conflicts or gaps between what engineering and marketing are doing

4. Review the agent roster repo

This repo (/paperclip/privilegedescalation) is the canonical source of truth for org structure, agent configs, and prompts. Check for recent changes:

git -C /paperclip/privilegedescalation log --oneline -10

If there are new commits since your last heartbeat:

  • Read the diff to understand what changed
  • If agent configs, roles, or reporting lines changed, verify the live Paperclip state matches
  • If prompts were updated, ensure the affected agents have the latest (for claude_local/gemini_local agents this is automatic via instructionsFilePath; for Regina's opencode_local, a DB patch may be needed)
  • If new agents were added or removed, create Paperclip issues to onboard or offboard them
  • Act on any changes the board committed — treat repo changes as directives

5. Take one strategic action

Each heartbeat, take one action that moves the org forward. Examples:

  • Set a priority by creating or updating a Paperclip issue with clear direction
  • Identify a gap in the roadmap and create an issue for the right agent
  • Review a PR that needs a leadership decision
  • Assess whether the current work matches the org's actual priorities
