 **Purpose:** Orchestration hub for AIPass public repo. Manages dev notes, DPLANs, system status dashboards. The DEV_CENTRAL of AIPass.
 **Module:** `aipass.devpulse`
 **Created:** 2026-03-06
+**Last Updated:** 2026-03-06
 
 ---
 
 ## Overview
 
 ### What I Do
-
+- Coordinate work across all 10 AIPass modules
+- Track system health via seedgo audits and recon reports
+- Manage DPLANs and development notes
+- Test and wire modules in Docker container environment
 
 ### How I Work
-- **Entry Point:** `apps/devpulse.py`
-- **Pattern:** Auto-discovers and routes to modules
+- **Entry Point:** `apps/branch.py`
+- **Pattern:** Auto-discovers modules in `apps/modules/` with `handle_command()` and routes commands

+## Key Insight
+23 of 31 Path.home() issues are in **Telegram handlers** — this is Dev-Pass infrastructure. DPLAN-047 recommends stripping it for v1.0 (Option B).
+
+## Disabled Legacy Files
+- `spawner.py(disabled)` — old Claude session spawner

+## Notes
+- Entry point is `api.py` not `branch.py` (naming deviation)
+- No .trinity files, no tests
+- OpenRouter integration is stdlib-only BaseBot (no python-telegram-bot dep)

+# Claude Code Config Recon
+**Date:** 2026-03-06
+
+## Hooks Active
+
+### UserPromptSubmit — branch_prompt_loader.py
+- Walks up from CWD looking for `.trinity/` or `apps/` to find branch root
+- Loads `.aipass/branch_system_prompt.md` or `.aipass/aipass_local_prompt.md`
+- Only DevPulse currently has a prompt file
+
+### PreToolUse — tool_use_sound.py
+- Plays ATM key press sound on Bash/Edit/Read/Grep/Glob/Write/etc.
+- Sound files NOT present — silent fallback
+
+### Stop — stop_sound.py
+- Plays achievement bell when AI finishes
+- Sound files NOT present — silent fallback
+
+### Notification — notification_sound.py
+- Plays announce tone on permission requests
+- Sound files NOT present — silent fallback
+
+## Module Settings
+All 10 modules have `.claude/settings.local.json` with empty permissions. No module-specific config.
+
+## Prompt Architecture
+- **Global prompt:** Not present (hook would load `aipass_global_prompt.md` if it existed)
+- **Branch prompts:** Only DevPulse has one (`.aipass/aipass_local_prompt.md`)
+- **Branch discovery:** Looks for `.trinity/` or `apps/` directory to identify branch root
+
+## Commands
+- `.claude/commands/memo.md` — Guidance for updating .trinity memory files after work
+
+## Permissions
+- Default mode: acceptEdits
+- Denied: git reset, rebase, config, force push, EnterPlanMode

+# CLI Test Results
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-06
+**Agent:** DevPulse sub-agent
+**Environment:** Linux 6.12.72-linuxkit, Python 3.11, aipass 1.0.0
+
+---
+
+## Test 1: `pip install -e .`
+
+**Result: PASS (with workaround)**
+
+Initial attempt failed with `error: externally-managed-environment` (PEP 668). Succeeded with `--break-system-packages` flag. Package installed to `~/.local/` (user install). All dependencies resolved: rich 14.3.3, watchdog 6.0.0, markdown-it-py 4.0.0, pygments 2.19.2.
+
+**Warning:** The `drone` and `seedgo` scripts installed to `~/.local/bin` which is NOT on PATH by default. Must `export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"` before CLI commands work.
+
+---
+
+## Test 2: `drone --help`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Output:
+```
+Drone - Command Router & Discovery
+
+Routes commands to AIPass branches and internal modules.
+
+Usage:
+  drone @target command [args]   Route command to branch or module
+  drone @target --help           Show help for branch or module
+  drone systems                  List registered branches and modules
+  drone --help                   Show this help
+  drone --version                Show version
+
+Examples:
+  drone @seedgo audit aipass
+  drone @seedgo list
+  drone @flow status
+  drone systems
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test 3: `drone systems`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Output:
+```
+Modules (2):
+  @drone              Command routing and module discovery
+  @seedgo             Standards compliance through pluggable standard packs
+
+Branches (10):
+  @ai_mail
+  @api
+  @cli
+  @devpulse
+  @drone
+  @flow
+  @prax
+  @seedgo
+  @spawn
+  @trigger
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test 4: `drone @seedgo verify`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Output:
+```
+SEEDGO VERIFY
+
+  Standards directory exists
+  1 standard pack(s) installed: aipass
+  Pack 'aipass': valid manifest (v1.0.0, 20 standards)
+  Pack 'aipass': entry point exists
+  Pack 'aipass': all 20 standard check files present
+
+  PASS  5/5 checks passed (100%)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test 5: `drone @seedgo list`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Output:
+```
+  aipass               (20 standards)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test 6: Registry import
+
+**Command:** `python3 -c "from aipass.drone.apps.modules.registry import load_registry; print(load_registry())"`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Registry loaded successfully. Returns dict with metadata (version 1.0.0, 10 branches) and all 10 branch entries with correct paths under `/home/coder/workspace/src/aipass/`.
+
+---
+
+## Test 7: Prax logger import
+
+**Command:** `python3 -c "from aipass.prax import logger; logger.info('test')"`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+No output and no errors. Logger imported and called without issue. Note: no visible output suggests the logger may not have a handler configured or the log level filtered it, but the import and call succeeded without exceptions.
+
+---
+
+## Test 8: CLI console/header import
+
+**Command:** `python3 -c "from aipass.cli import console, header; header('test')"`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Output rendered a Rich-formatted box:
+```
++------+
+| test |
++------+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test 9: DevPulse branch import
+
+**Command:** `python3 -c "from aipass.devpulse.apps.branch import main"`
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Import succeeded with no output and no errors.
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+| # | Test | Result |
+|---|------|--------|
+| 1 | `pip install -e .` | PASS (needs `--break-system-packages`) |
+| 2 | `drone --help` | PASS |
+| 3 | `drone systems` | PASS |
+| 4 | `drone @seedgo verify` | PASS |
+| 5 | `drone @seedgo list` | PASS |
+| 6 | Registry import | PASS |
+| 7 | Prax logger import | PASS |
+| 8 | CLI console/header import | PASS |
+| 9 | DevPulse branch import | PASS |
+
+**Overall: 9/9 PASS**
+
+### Notes
+
+1. **PATH issue:** `~/.local/bin` is not on PATH by default in this environment. The `drone` and `seedgo` CLI entry points install there. Any automation or CI must ensure PATH includes this directory.
+2. **PEP 668:** The system Python is externally managed. `--break-system-packages` or a virtualenv is required.
+3. **Prax logger:** Imports cleanly but `logger.info('test')` produces no visible output -- may need handler/level configuration review (not necessarily a bug, but worth noting).

+- config/load.py:51 — `SYSTEM_LOGS_DIR = Path.home() / "system_logs"` + mkdir at line 55
+- log_watchdog.py:44 — SYSTEM_LOGS_DIR at import time
+- agent_status_writer.py:45 — BRANCH_REGISTRY at import time

+- monitor_module.py:161, 597
+- logging/setup.py:125, direct.py:144
+
+## Key Finding
+`from aipass.prax import logger` **works** because logger.py uses lazy init. But deeper imports into handlers (config/load.py) crash due to Path.home() mkdir at import time.
+
+## Note
+- Circular dependency with CLI properly handled (logger doesn't import CLI)
+- File watcher has try/except for inotify limit (graceful degradation)
+- `logger.info('test')` produces no visible terminal output (may need config check)

+# Repo Root Recon
+**Date:** 2026-03-06
+
+## Summary
+Well-structured Python package repo with 10 modules, Hatchling build, GitHub Actions CI.
+
+## Key Files
+- `AIPASS_REGISTRY.json` — 10 branches, all active, all at `src/aipass/{module}`
+- `pyproject.toml` — aipass v1.0.0, Python >=3.10, Hatchling build
+- `CLAUDE.md` — Agent startup protocol
+- `Dockerfile` — codercom/code-server base, Python 3.x, isolated venv
+- `DPLAN-047_...md` — Critical path purge plan
+
+## pyproject.toml Details
+```
+[project]
+name = "aipass", version = "1.0.0", python = ">=3.10"
+dependencies = ["rich >= 13.0", "watchdog >= 3.0"]
+
+[project.scripts]

+seedgo = "seedgo.cli:main"
+
+[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]
+packages = ["src/aipass", "src/seedgo"]
+```
+
+## CI Pipeline (.github/workflows/ci.yml)
+- Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13
+- Steps: ruff check, pytest
+
+## AIPASS_REGISTRY.json
+All 10 modules registered: ai_mail, api, cli, devpulse, drone, flow, prax, seedgo, spawn, trigger.
+All status: active. All profile: library.
+
+## Claude Config (.claude/)
+- settings.json: acceptEdits mode, denies git reset/rebase/force-push
+- Hooks: prompt loader, tool sounds, notification sounds, stop sounds
+- branch_prompt_loader.py: discovers branch root via .trinity/ or apps/, loads .aipass/ prompts
+- Sound files referenced but not present (graceful fallback)
+
+## Notes
+- No root-level tests/ (tests live in each module)
+- No global aipass_global_prompt.md exists yet (hook would load it if present)
+- `your` — empty file at root (cleanup candidate)

+## Critical Issues
+1. **pyproject.toml:** `seedgo = "seedgo.cli:main"` points to non-existent module (should be `aipass.seedgo...`)
+2. **pyproject.toml:** packages includes `"src/seedgo"` which doesn't exist
+
+## Working
+- Pack discovery, module auto-discovery, verify (5/5), list, drone adapter
+- Standards documentation (20 defined)
+- Bypass rules system (.seed/bypass.json)

+# Spawn Module Recon
+**Date:** 2026-03-06
+
+## Summary
+Agent creation utility library. Flat structure (not 3-layer — it's infrastructure, not an agent). Well-designed, stable.
+
+## Structure
+```
+spawn/
+├── spawn.py                  # Main engine (210 lines, 7-step spawn)
+├── file_ops.py               # Template copy + path manipulation
+├── placeholders.py           # {{PLACEHOLDER}} replacement
+├── metadata.py               # Branch name extraction
+├── registry.py               # AIPASS_REGISTRY.json CRUD

+│   └── agent_mock_branch/    # Reference spawned agent
+└── tests/
+    └── test_spawn.py         # 126 lines, covers full spawn lifecycle
+```
+
+## How spawn_agent() Works (7 Steps)
+1. Validate target doesn't exist
+2. Extract branch name from path
+3. Get next citizen number from registry
+4. Build placeholder mapping (14 variables)
+5. Copy template recursively, replacing placeholders
+6. Rename `{{BRANCH}}_*` directories
+7. Update AIPASS_REGISTRY.json
+
+## Placeholder Variables
+`{{BRANCHNAME}}` (UPPER), `{{branchname}}` (lower), `{{BRANCH}}` (module name), `{{CWD}}`, `{{DATE}}`, `{{MODULE}}`, `{{EMAIL}}`, `{{PROFILE}}`, `{{ROLE}}`, `{{TRAITS}}`, `{{PURPOSE_BRIEF}}`, `{{CITIZEN_NUMBER}}`, `{{KEY_CAPABILITIES}}`, `{{DEPENDS_ON}}`, `{{PROVIDES_TO}}`
+
+## Path Debt
+- No Path.home() in spawn code
+- Template conftest.py has hardcoded shebang (propagates to all spawned agents)
+- Template branch.py has relative import bug (propagates to all spawned agents)
+
+## Notes
+- Flat structure is intentional — spawn is a utility, not an autonomous agent
+- No .trinity files (by design)
+- Has actual tests (only module with test_*.py files)
+- Skip list: `__pycache__`, `.git`, `.template_registry.json`, `.gitkeep`

+└── tests/                    # Empty
+```
+
+## Key Features
+- **Event Bus:** Deferred queue prevents recursion during nested events
+- **Medic v2:** Circuit breaker (closed/open/half_open) + exponential backoff per error fingerprint
+- **Error Registry:** SHA1 fingerprinting, dedup, rate limiting, dispatch gating
+- **Auto-healing:** Dispatches fix-it emails via AI_Mail when errors detected
+
+## Commands
+```
+drone @trigger errors list|detail|suppress|resolve|stats|circuit-breaker
+drone @trigger medic on|off|status|mute|unmute
+```
+
+## Path Debt
+- **CRITICAL:** `plan_file.py:42` — `ECOSYSTEM_ROOT = Path("/home/aipass")` (hardcoded)
+- **HIGH:** 8+ event handlers use `AIPASS_HOME = Path.home()` at module level
+- Shebang debt across all files
+
+## Modified File
+`trigger_data.json` — error catchup state with 7 processed hashes, indicates active error processing from Dev-Pass side
+
+## Notes
+- Inotify exhaustion issue documented and resolved (lazy-start disabled)
+- error_logged.py DEPRECATED but kept for backward compat
+- Handlers can't import Prax logger directly (causes event recursion) — use get_direct_logger()

+# Trinity Census — AIPass Agent Registry
+**Date:** 2026-03-06 | **Surveyed by:** DevPulse sub-agent
+
+## Summary
+**1 of 10 modules** has .trinity files (is "alive" as an agent).
+
+## Active Agents
+
+### DEVPULSE (alias: "dapfels")
+- **Status:** Active
+- **Location:** `src/aipass/devpulse/`
+- **Module:** `aipass.devpulse`
+- **Role:** orchestration_hub
+- **Created:** 2026-03-06
+- **Trinity files:** passport.json, local.json, observations.json — all present and healthy
+- **DASHBOARD.local.json:** present
+- **artifacts/birth_certificate.json:** present (ID: DEVPULSE-001)
+- **Session count:** 1 (active)
+
+## Modules Without .trinity (Not Yet "Born")
+
+| Module | Location | Notes |
+|--------|----------|-------|
+| drone | `src/aipass/drone/` | No .trinity |
+| seedgo | `src/aipass/seedgo/` | No .trinity |
+| prax | `src/aipass/prax/` | No .trinity |
+| cli | `src/aipass/cli/` | No .trinity |
+| flow | `src/aipass/flow/` | No .trinity |
+| ai_mail | `src/aipass/ai_mail/` | No .trinity |
+| api | `src/aipass/api/` | No .trinity |
+| trigger | `src/aipass/trigger/` | No .trinity |
+| spawn | `src/aipass/spawn/` | No .trinity (but has templates for creating them) |
+
+## Notes
+- The spawn module has `agent.template/` with .trinity scaffolds ready for new agents
+- Also has `agent_mock_branch/` with example trinity files
+- On the Dev-Pass side, all 30+ agents are alive with full .trinity — this repo just needs them initialized
