Decision

A weekly “agent systems manager” cron (Saturdays 9am ET) evaluates all agentic systems on evidence (job health, output quality, value delivered, coverage gaps) and DMs Michael ranked improvement proposals. Propose-approve model: the manager never self-modifies prompts, schedules, skills, or scripts; Michael approves proposals by number and changes are implemented with him in session.

Context

Michael’s directive: the brain strategy must make the company self-improve through intelligent systems, like a manager for the agent workforce. Runs Saturday so approved changes can land before the Sunday scoreboard/QA cycle.

Options considered

  • Self-modifying agent (auto-applies improvements): rejected for now; approval gate keeps a human on the quality loop and prevents drift. Revisit only with a strong track record of accepted proposals.

Consequences

  • New log: Agent Systems Manager Log (findings, proposals, Michael’s verdicts). Rejected proposals are logged so they are never re-proposed.
  • The manager’s scorecard becomes the “are the systems working” section of record.
