The Honest Current State
This page is the one place the manual touches dated facts. It defers entirely to docs/CURRENT_STATE.md, which governs. A snapshot of the gap this manual is honest about:
These facts are dated and graded.
Current reality and target state must remain visibly separate. A capability is never claimed at a grade the evidence does not support. For the authoritative, continuously-updated state, read docs/CURRENT_STATE.md in the repository.
| Architectural claim | Current honest grade |
|---|---|
| Autonomous organization exists | No — still a target. One capability (Burden Intelligence) is operational in production; zero capabilities are proven; the system still depends on the executive for end-to-end operation. |
| Capability API | Invariants defined; v0 wire spec specified (portfolio/CAPABILITY_API_WIRE_SPEC.md); no production endpoint implemented; products not integrated. |
| Live execution | Not started / blocked — GitHub App + secrets unconfigured; all execution forced dry_run: true; first activation reserved to the executive. (Hermes runner heartbeat is online and a production project_proof_receipts table exists, but no live capability execution has run.) |
| Real receipts | Zero GLoops production receipts (all GLoops execution is dry-run). Local one-off ProofReceipts exist from the Hermes Self-Proof framework but are file-backed, not production-recurring. |
| SDLC Orchestrator role replacement | ~40–55% full-role (standing) — past the earlier <25%; six of seven weighted orchestration streams run unattended in production for covered Induct issues. Gaps below the 90% covered-path ceiling: deployment/standing-proof Unknown (Hermes runner not yet advertising project-self-proof), receipts still dry-run, learning loop unproven, coverage limited to agent:candidate issues. |
| Foundry (Ralph’s runtime) | Tolerated debt — the #1 convergence debt; shrink, never extend. |
| Induct | The current Reference Realization — operational governed SDLC, ~100% human-merged. |
| Burden Intelligence | Operational (first GLoops capability to reach this grade, 2026-06-26): live Burden Inbox, protected API sync, Action Queue persistence, dry-run WorkOrder projection, feature-gated scheduler in production. Not yet proven (recurring outcomes without the executive). |
| Hermes Self-Proof / Evidence-Gated Promotion | Built; production API + project_proof_receipts DB deployed and verified; standing runner not yet activated (one operator SSH/env step away). No recurring production receipts yet. |
| Activity surface (organizational narrative) | Built and merged to gloops-ui main; Level-3 technical drill-down live-verified 2026-06-29. Honest gap: Level-2 Evidence is empty across live subjects (dry-run system has zero decided receipts) — a data reality, not a code defect. |
| GLoops Transformation Program (SDLC Slices 1-7) | Locally proven (single ephemeral session 2026-06-27, ~48% local role-replacement delta); not persistently operational — the role does not continue end-to-end without the executive between sessions. |
