Software Factory

The live board

Everything below is generated from the factory's own tools — the same command that draws the private board draws this one, with the contents redacted. Nothing here is typed by hand and nothing is estimated.

Live, from a heartbeat. The board ships baked in at build time — 2026-09-02 12:08Z — for anyone without JavaScript, then a script in the browser polls a status file the factory's own laptop pushes and swaps the numbers in as they change. 8 stations run on one laptop that this site cannot reach, so "is it running" is answered by how recently that file arrived, not by a status field inside it — a crashed laptop looks exactly like a stale file still claiming "working".

What is withheld. Counts and shape are real; contents are not. No task text, no message bodies, no issue or PR titles, no owned paths. What a reader gets is the true shape of the factory — how many stations, what is blocked, how the loop closes — and nothing about what is being built this week.

Generated from the factory's own tools — nothing here is typed by hand, and nothing is estimated. Open handoffs over-report: openRequests counts a request no reply correlates to AND whose thread (contextId) carries nothing later from the recipient. Messages sent before contextId existed have only the first test, so they still OVER-report: treat an open request as
