Upgrade dependencies one at a time
Walk through outdated dependencies one package per turn, upgrading, running the full check suite, and pinning back anything that breaks.
/goal `npm outdated` lists no minor or patch updates — upgrade exactly one package per turn, run tests, lint, and build after each, commit if green, and pin the previous version with a note in UPGRADE-BLOCKERS.md if it fails; stop after 20 turns

Implementation note
One-at-a-time means every breakage is attributable to a single package. Major versions are deliberately excluded; handle those individually with their changelogs.

Weekly tech debt report
Every Friday, compile a trend report of debt signals — TODO count, lint suppressions, type coverage, largest files — so the team sees drift before it compounds.
/schedule every Friday at 4pm, measure TODO/FIXME count, eslint-disable and ts-ignore counts, type coverage, and the five largest source files; append the numbers with week-over-week deltas to reports/tech-debt.md and call out the single worst trend in one paragraph

Keep memory pins under control
Audit and prune pinned memory contexts to stay under 7, replacing competing invariants atomically and checking load count before each pin.
/goal that must load every session (it is then surfaced deterministically by load pinned ). Pin sparingly — keep a context at ≤7 pinned (prune at 10; the pinned load cap of 100 is a safety net, not the budget). Decisions/patterns/status are NOT pin material. Before pinning, call load pinned to check the count; when an invariant supersedes an old one, unpin the old in the same step ( update memory(memory id=<old , delivery mode="on recall") ) so two competing invariants are never both pinned

Chase a refund until it lands
Open the claim, watch replies and deadlines, and keep the case moving until the money actually arrives.
Get my refund for [company and charge info]. Start the claim now through an approved support channel, then keep following up on replies, promises, and deadlines until the refund arrives. Keep a short case note so each follow-up has context. Stop only when the refund is received or you are genuinely blocked and need me.
