Daily Work Log: 2026-05-19

📋 Session Overview

This day focused on major system restructuring, aligning the Antigravity tiered memory models, fixing critical TCI (Thin Client Infrastructure) authentication issues, and deploying critical Google Apps Script refactors.

🚀 Key Accomplishments

1. Vault Architecture Rebuild & Simplification

  • Consolidated four redundant architecture notes into a single source of truth at [[master_architecture|master_architecture.md]] (under 00_Engine/).
  • Rewrote ~/.gemini/GEMINI.md to be “Ultra-Lean”, pointing directly to the vault.
  • Established the Desktop/Chromebox as the “Engine” and confirmed that autonomous edits in ~/projects/ and ~/dotfiles/ are permitted.

2. TCI & Dotfile Parity

  • Symlinked .env and keybindings.json from ~/.gemini/ to ~/dotfiles/gemini/.
  • Pushed all trackable config changes to the remote dotfiles repository.
  • Traced and resolved ssh box alias error (a symlink loop caused by evaluating markdown context as bash commands).
  • Prevented multiple starts of the polkit biometric bridge in ~/.bashrc.
  • Purged deprecated Tngl references from .bashrc and .bash_aliases.
  • Updated global configuration referencing 01_internal to point to the new 4-Pillar architecture.

3. DogWizard Group Sync & API Integrations

  • Refactored syncGroupsToEngine in Google Apps Script to group rows by Group Email as an array, preserving multi-row members and manual columns during API syncs. Verified live in Google Apps Script.
  • Clasp Identity Isolation: Solved remote auth hangs/ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED by generating master clasp tokens via laptop, storing them in 1Password, and using the op CLI to inject them. Built a .clasprc.json symlink architecture to prevent token desyncs across sub-projects (documented in [[Clasp-Identity-Isolation-Pattern]]).
  • Antigravity TCI Sync: Migrated Antigravity settings.json and keybindings.json into ~/dotfiles/base/antigravity/ and symlinked them back, keeping local IDE and remote Server IDE perfectly in sync via sync-all.
