Orchestrator note — `orch-r1-plan-debt-sync`¶

Date: 2026-05-25
Agent: swarm_observer
Branch: cursor/swarm-observer-plan-loop
Work item: Map goal-directed snapshot plan_pending per runner → registry plan_debt; patch loop backlogs where stale.

Executive summary¶

Field	Value
Swarm posture	Degraded (ecosystem grade D, 62.4; `unattended_safe: false`)
Goal-directed loops	Healthy — 8 runners active
Gap registry	~29 open after sync (from 48): 5 `missing_package`, ~24 `plan_debt`
Unattended?	No — CI failures, preflight errors, stuck SDK runs

Plan-debt sync closed duplicate httpd mirror rows, reconciled completed_ids, and fixed ingest/apply to use canonical plan_todo_id (no nested gap-httpd-gap-* backlog ids).

Gap counts by `gap_kind`¶

`gap_kind`	Open (post-sync)	Closed this cycle	Discoverer
`missing_package`	5	0	`gap_explorer`
`plan_debt`	~24	~19	`plan_verifier`, snapshot
`competitor_feature`	0	—	`gap_explorer` (orch-r2)
`ui_ux`	0	—	`gui_ux_tester` (orch-r4)

Backlog patches applied¶

Target	Action
`docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-16-li-httpd-plan.md`	Removed mirror orchestrator todos; `gap-phase2-mitigation-exploits` → completed
`docs/ecosystem/security-research-backlog.md`	Removed mirror rows; `sec-r0-cwe-delta` → completed
`docs/ecosystem/swarm-observer-plan-backlog.md`	`orch-r1` → completed
`scripts/swarm-gap-ingest.py`	normalize + reconcile + dedupe
`scripts/swarm-gap-apply-actions.py`	canonical backlog todo ids

Systemd: No new lic plan loops.

Self-heal actions (control plane)¶

Ingest/apply hardened; httpd/security backlogs deduped.
Registry rows closed when state.completed_ids matches.
Next: snapshot writer dedupe (goal-directed-agents-snapshot.py), stuck SDK run sweep.

No product code in lic.

Human-only blockers¶

40 failing PRs, 32 repos without CI, governance merges, CURSOR_API_KEY for SDK.
