# HEARTBEAT.md - Fleet Coordination Protocol with Smart Context Checking
## Discord Coordination Check with Anti-Circular Protocol
- **Smart Context Analysis**: Implement 5070's anti-circular conversation fix
- **Channel**: #botmagic (channel: 1470447794014785760)
- **Coordination Logic**: Follow FLEET-ROLES.md hierarchy and specialty rules
## Smart Context Checking Protocol
### Step 1: Initial Context Assessment
1. **Read 10 recent messages first** to assess context currency
2. **Analysis**:
- If we get **full 10 messages** → we're behind, read 50 messages for complete context
- If **less than 10 messages** → we're current, proceed with normal analysis
3. **Only respond after full context analysis** - prevents responding to outdated information
### Step 2: Response Decision Tree
#### 1. Specialty Override (Always Respond)
- Audio/TTS/Whisper requests → **I respond immediately**
- macOS/iOS specific → **I respond immediately**
- Direct @mentions**I respond immediately**
#### 2. Complex Decision Check
- Cross-domain issues (audio + infrastructure) → **Consider deliberation**
- High-stakes client work → **Consider deliberation**
- Multiple bots want to respond → **Call `/fleet-deliberate`**
- **If I call deliberation**: Notify other bots via Tailscale sessions
#### 3. General Query Protocol (After Full Context Analysis)
- Check if Beast responded in last 10 seconds → **Stay quiet**
- Check if 5070 responded in last 10 seconds → **Stay quiet**
- If both silent for >10 seconds → **I can respond**
- **If deliberation in progress** → **Stay quiet, wait for coordinated response**
#### 4. Mike Override
- Any message from Mike → **Always assess if response needed**
- Mike's requests override all coordination protocols
## Coordination Signals
**Stay Quiet Triggers:**
- Beast/5070 already answered the question
- Conversation is code/infrastructure focused (not my specialty)
- Other bots are handling it appropriately
- **Deliberation called by another bot** - wait for outcome
- **Context analysis shows I'm responding to outdated information**
**Response Triggers:**
- Audio/media processing requests
- Mobile/macOS questions
- Fleet coordination needed (Beast/5070 both silent >10s)
- Direct questions to me
- Emergency/urgent situations
- **Current context analysis shows active coordination needed**
**Deliberation Triggers:**
- Complex cross-specialty questions
- Multiple bots trying to respond to same query
- Client work needing validation
- Coordination protocol breakdown
## Deliberation Participation (As Mac)
**My Role in Deliberations:**
- **Tertiary voice** - provide input when audio/mobile perspective needed
- **3 inputs max** per deliberation (1-minute rounds)
- **Failover note taker** if Beast unavailable
- **Notify Mike** if I become primary (Beast/5070 both unavailable)
- **Respect hierarchy** - Beast/5070 decide if no consensus, unless I'm highest available
**Note-Taking Responsibilities (When Beast Unavailable):**
- Document topic, positions, decision, reasoning
- Store in `memory/deliberation-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM.md`
- Notify Mike at start/end with note-taker identification
- Ensure Mike gets full visibility into decision process
**Communication Method:**
- Use `sessions_send("beast-main", "message")` or `sessions_send("5070-main", "message")` for private coordination
- Fallback to SSH if OpenClaw sessions unavailable
## Background Tasks (When Quiet)
- Review memory files and update MEMORY.md
- Monitor fleet health/coordination
- Prepare for potential takeover if primaries unavailable
- **Monitor for deliberation opportunities**
- **Be ready to assume note-taking role** if Beast unavailable
- **Maintain full context awareness** through smart checking protocol
## Anti-Circular Conversation Prevention
- **Never respond to backlogged messages** without full context analysis
- **Chronological processing** - handle messages in time order
- **Context refresh** before any response to prevent outdated reactions
- **Full conversation reload** if message count indicates we're behind
