MAJR agent services · jul 10, 2026

Dispatch

Control Plane in the catalog. The Control Plane now appears in /catalog.json, so you can discover it alongside other platform services.

Dispatch

Draft safety improvements keep unfinished and internal content out of published notes.

  • Drafts that carry the no-news marker are no longer published by mistake.
  • Internal deliberation text is prevented from leaking into published output.

Brand accuracy now fails fast when voice drifts on brand pushes, so mismatches surface early instead of shipping.

shipped

  • MAJR · agent services — MAJR's rebuilt media pipeline is now running production media, and the old path has been retired.
  • MAJR — MAJR's production database moved to managed infrastructure, and it has run clean since the cutover.
  • MAJR · agent services — the shared control layer's cutover is complete, so it now runs centrally as agent services instead of inside the product.
  • MAJR — MAJR now promotes releases from a single source, with its second long-lived environment retired.
  • MAJR — the drafting flaw behind this morning's what's new blemish is fixed at the source: an unfinished note can no longer mark itself publishable.
  • MAJR — gomajr.com's RSS feed now lives at its permanent home, /rss.xml.
  • MAJR — gomajr.com's writing landing was refreshed with a featured piece and a cleaner card grid.

the switches that were staged and off this morning are on tonight. MAJR's rebuilt media pipeline now runs its production media, and the old path is retired. the shared control layer's cutover finished end to end, so it runs centrally as agent services instead of living inside the product. the production database moved to managed infrastructure and has run quiet since the overnight cutover. and the drafting flaw behind this morning's what's new blemish is fixed at the source. a day of flipping switches that had been staged for weeks, each one deliberate, each with a rollback held in reserve.

in flight

MAJR · new database live, old one on standby

with MAJR's database freshly migrated, the old one is held in reserve as a rollback until the new one has fully proven out, then it comes down.

→ retire the standby once the new one is proven

exploring

  • how the agent services become discoverable and connectable from outside. each already publishes a machine-readable catalog entry and a plain-language description an AI agent can read; the open questions are trial access without a person in the loop, and one-click connections from AI assistants. still leaning toward getting the catalog right before building trial access.

system status & ops

telemetry is clean across the fleet. a production database migration completed today and is settling in overnight.

  • systems & telemetry — no new server-side errors in the last 24 hours
  • MAJR production — the media pipeline is live and processing cleanly; the migrated database is settling in
  • what's new feed — this morning's drafting artifact is fixed at the source; an unfinished note can't publish itself now
  • Return Goblin reminders — the halt-on-fault safeguard is armed and quiet
  • agent services — the control layer cutover is complete and the media pipeline is live

watching the migrated database stay clean before the old one it replaces comes down.

shipped

  • MAJR — MAJR's production app caught up to everything validated in development: the rebuilt artist dashboard, sign-up correctness fixes, and groundwork for the new media pipeline, still switched off.
  • MAJR — the what's new page on gomajr.com now draws from the shared agent services feed: one source across products instead of a copy that can drift.
  • MAJR — the daily brief and what's new on gomajr.com now publish as an RSS feed.
  • MAJR — the card treatment on gomajr.com moved into the site's global styles, so every page renders cards the same way.

a heavy night of shipping. MAJR's production app caught up to everything validated in development in a single release: the rebuilt artist dashboard, sign-up correctness fixes, and groundwork for a new media pipeline that stays switched off for now. gomajr.com consolidated too: the what's new page now draws from the shared agent services feed, and the daily brief publishes over RSS. underneath, the media pipeline's last correctness fixes landed, so turning it on is now a deliberate go decision with a rollback ready, and the control layer's cutover plan got stress-tested overnight, including a security review of its trust boundaries. one blemish surfaced this morning: a drafting artifact reached the what's new feed, corrected with this update.

investigating

MAJR · what's new feed

a drafting artifact reached the public what's new feed

one entry in the what's new feed went out carrying its draft reasoning instead of a finished note. the entry is corrected with this update, and the drafting step is being fixed at the source. Next: harden the source so an unfinished draft can never publish

in flight

MAJR · agent services · wired and verified, switched off

MAJR's new media pipeline is fully wired into production and proven end to end, and the last state-handling correctness fixes have landed. turning it on is now a deliberate decision with a tested rollback, not a remaining build task.

→ flip it on, then let it settle before the old path retires

MAJR · agent services · plan hardening

the switchover plan for the shared control layer got stress-tested overnight: migration order, the decision points that shape the final sequence, and a security review of its trust boundaries and token handling. its hardening notes fold into the cutover sequence.

→ lock the order, then cut over in stages

exploring

  • how the fleet of agent services becomes discoverable to the outside world. each service already publishes a machine-readable catalog entry and a plain-language description an AI agent can read; the open questions are trial access without a human in the loop, and one-click connections from AI assistants. leaning toward getting the catalog story right before building trial access.
  • whether MAJR still needs a second long-lived environment now that releases promote from a single source. the lean is to retire it and let previews and staged flags carry the risk instead. the release that just shipped was step one of that plan, and each following step waits on its own explicit go.

system status & ops

telemetry is clean and the overnight release deployed without a hitch. one content fix rides this update: a drafting artifact in the what's new feed, corrected here and being fixed at the source.

  • systems & telemetry — no new server-side errors in the last 24 hours
  • MAJR production — the overnight release deployed cleanly and verified
  • what's new feed — one entry published with a drafting artifact; corrected, source fix underway
  • Return Goblin reminders — the halt-on-fault safeguard armed and quiet
  • agent services — control layer and media pipeline both staged and switched off, by design

flipping the new media pipeline on for MAJR, then the control layer's staged cutover.
