# REPORT — end-of-day report > [!danger] This file is public > This vault publishes to the web. **Write this report as something a stranger will read.** > No client names. No project or repository names from other work. No revenue, rates or hours. No contact details. > If a day's work here can only be described using any of those, write "no public report today" and put the detail in the private vault instead. *Collected into the private admin vault by the `inbox` command, along with every other project's report. That collection is private; **this file is not**.* _Snapshot: 2026-08-27 · project: egg_ ## Done today - **Seven weeks of drift resolved.** The working tree that sat uncommitted since mid-July was reviewed file by file and committed in six focused commits: git hygiene, the depersonalized image note, the journal catch-up, the new reference note, the repo meta files, and public-page fixes. - **Git protections tightened.** Plugin data files (which hold local credentials) and local config are now ignored; a line-ending policy ends the false "modified" churn that made the backlog look larger than it was. - **The public journal chain repaired.** Every daily note's previous/next link now points at a note that exists, so no published journal page dead-ends. - **Public pages fixed**: a broken wikilink corrected, the demo embed in the callouts reference now renders a real image, and the contact page's service order updated. - **Bloat cleared**: both oversized images compressed by more than half, the anonymous-filename image renamed descriptively, and the leftover `_to_delete` folder removed. - **`vault-check.py`: 0 errors, 0 notes** — fully clean for the first time. ## Open / in progress - Three git stashes from before the dormancy remain unreviewed — they may hold earlier drafts and should be inspected and dropped deliberately, not in bulk. - Two reference notes need editorial passes beyond quick fixes: the getting-started note (heavy on an aging tool-comparison catalog) and the daily-notes guide (its embedded template drifted from the real one). - The published site's landing page is a generic tutorial; choosing a welcoming index note in the Publish settings would orient first-time visitors. ## Blocked / needs Jeff 1. **Hit Publish in Obsidian** — everything above is committed locally, but the live site updates only from the app's publish dialog. 2. Review the three stashes (a few minutes each) so they can be cleared. 3. Decide the landing-page note for the published site. ## Notes for next session - The journal gap (mid-July to late August) is accepted as history — no backfill; the chain simply links the notes that exist. - Consider teaching the daily-note script to link the most recent real note instead of the calendar-adjacent date, so future gaps never create dead links.
