Pending/Incomplete Tasks

From Radio Show Work:

• Co-host voice profile needs name correction: "Tom" → proper name (bulk rename required)
• Affects: directory name, profiles.json, build_cohost_profile.py, session logs, diarization speaker_map

From Cascades Work (Howard's backlog):

• 7 restored mailboxes need conversion to shared mailboxes
• Jodi Ramstack license removal pending
• Exchange RBAC propagation lag may have resolved (was blocking with HTTP 401 errors)

General:

• No active tasks initiated on Mac during this session

Session Context

This session occurred approximately 70 minutes after the previous sync on this machine. Primary activity was catching up on extensive radio show audio processing work completed on the Windows workstation (GURU-BEAST-ROG) which has the RTX 4090 GPU for accelerated diarization and transcription.

Next Steps

No immediate next steps required from this session. The session was purely synchronization and review. Any follow-up work will depend on user's next request.

Technical Notes

Cross-Machine Workflow

Mac (Mikes-MacBook-Air.local) is primarily used for:

• Repository management and git operations
• Code review and documentation
• Light development work
• Session coordination

Windows (GURU-BEAST-ROG) is used for:

• Heavy GPU-accelerated workloads (radio show processing)
• Database development and testing
• Full development environment with Ollama local AI
• Production-like testing

All work syncs bidirectionally via Gitea at 172.16.3.20:3000.

Note for Howard

RE: Cascades CA Role Gap & New Approval Workflow

Approval Workflow (NEW - applies to all future work)

Mike established a clear approval process today (documented in .claude/memory/approval-workflow-tools-vs-projects.md):

General Tools (remediation-tool, onboard scripts, MSP utilities):

• You can modify directly to further your work
• OR I can execute changes with approval from you OR Mike
• No roadmap/planning process - immediate operational changes allowed

Projects (GuruRMM, ClaudeTools API, etc.):

• Require Mike's approval for changes
• Feature requests → roadmap
• Bugs → bug list
• Structured development workflow

Cascades CA Fix - YOU ARE CLEARED TO PROCEED

Mike reviewed your 2026-04-28 session log and approves Path A (Graph API role assignment). You're clear to test and confirm.

Execute these commands when ready:

# Get token for Cascades tenant
TOKEN=$(bash /path/to/vault/scripts/vault.sh get-field msp-tools/computerguru-tenant-admin.sops.yaml token)

# Step 1: Activate the Conditional Access Administrator role in Cascades tenant (idempotent)
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/directoryRoles" \
  -d '{"roleTemplateId":"b1be1c3e-b65d-4f19-8427-f6fa0d97feb9"}'

# Step 2: Assign CA Administrator to Tenant Admin SP
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/roleManagement/directory/roleAssignments" \
  -d '{
    "principalId": "a5fa89a9-b735-4e10-b664-f042e265d137",
    "roleDefinitionId": "b1be1c3e-b65d-4f19-8427-f6fa0d97feb9",
    "directoryScopeId": "/"
  }'

(These are the exact commands from your session log lines 154-168.)

After You Confirm It Works

Once you verify CA endpoints work (can read Named Locations, can read CA policies), ping Mike or me and we'll:

1. Patch onboard-tenant.sh to include this role assignment automatically
2. Document any tenants already onboarded that need backfill

Then you can proceed with the rest of Track A:

• Add 184.191.143.62/32 to Cascades Named Location
• Exit Entra Connect staging
• Phone enrollment (Gates A5-A7)

Bottom line: You're approved and unblocked. Execute Path A when ready.
