## Overview

One skill, three recap views over Aeon's own activity. They share a preamble (read memory, compute the date, parse the selector) then branch into fully distinct logic — do not blend them:

- **scorecard** (default): a **synthesis-only** weekly rollup. Every number it prints is sourced from a file another skill already wrote (`skill-health`'s analytics view, `heartbeat`, plus legacy `tweet-allocator` / `repo-pulse` articles when an instance still has them; both skills were retired, so those paragraphs degrade to "no data" on a fresh instance). Three paragraphs — agent health / community growth / economic activity — each with its own verdict, rolled up to a worst-of-three overall verdict. Answers the operator-level question: *given everything that happened, was this week worth it?*
- **ops** (`ops`): an **operational day-recap**. Reads today's activity log + `memory/cron-state.json` + the issues index, deduplicates repeat runs, demands a URL on every shipped item, surfaces the calls that need a human, and leads with a one-sentence TL;DR verdict. Never a log dump.
- **push** (`push`): a **diff-reading push deep-dive**. Fetches push events, commits, and merged PRs per watched repo, reads the diffs, classifies each commit user-visible vs internal vs infra, ranks by impact, and leads with a one-line verdict — with significance gating so quiet days send nothing.

## Shared preamble (run for every branch)

1. Read `memory/MEMORY.md` for high-level context and scan the last ~3 days of `memory/logs/` for recent activity — drop anything already reported so you don't re-report the same signal.
2. Compute `${today}` (UTC date, `YYYY-MM-DD`).
3. **Parse `${var}` → branch + branch argument** (trim whitespace first). Let `FIRST` be the lowercase first token (split on the first whitespace or `:`), `REST` the remainder:
   - `FIRST == "ops"` → `BRANCH=ops`, `ARG=REST` (a date override, or empty).
   - `FIRST == "push"` → `BRANCH=push`, `ARG=REST` (an `owner/repo` scope, or empty).
   - anything else (empty, `dry-run`, a bare integer, or an unrecognized token) → `BRANCH=scorecard`; pass the **whole** `${var}` through to the scorecard branch's own grammar (dry-run prefix + optional integer window).
4. Dispatch: run the matching branch below. Only that branch executes.

# Scorecard branch (default — empty / `dry-run` / integer window)

Today is ${today}. Synthesize the last 7 days of agent activity into a single plain-language scorecard the operator can read in 30 seconds. Three paragraphs (agent health / community growth / economic activity) plus a one-line verdict (OK / WATCH / DEGRADED). The point of this branch is to answer the question every operator quietly asks after a week of autonomous runs: **was this week worth it?**

## Why this exists

Every signal needed to answer that question already lives in the repo — `skill-health`'s analytics view ranks pass rates, `heartbeat` issues per-run verdicts, the retired `tweet-allocator` / `repo-pulse` skills used to total weekly $AEON spend and star/fork deltas (their past articles are still read when present). But each lives in its own article, on its own cadence, in its own format. A new operator (or a returning one) opens four files to assemble the weekly picture. This branch assembles it once on Monday morning and pushes it to the notification channel so the picture is delivered, not fetched.

It is deliberately a synthesis view, not a measurement view — every number it prints is sourced from a file another skill already wrote. It introduces zero new APIs, zero new secrets, zero new cron-state. If an upstream skill didn't run, the matching paragraph degrades gracefully ("no data this week") rather than fabricating numbers.

## Config

No new config. No new secrets. Reads:

- `output/articles/skill-analytics-*.md` — most recent file in window for fleet pass rate + anomaly count (written by `skill-health`'s analytics view — the former `skill-analytics` skill, now the analytics view of `skill-health`)
- `output/articles/heartbeat-*.md` (or `memory/logs/*.md` heartbeat sections) — P0–P3 verdict tally
- `output/articles/tweet-allocator-*.md` (legacy; the skill was retired, so usually absent) - weekly distributed totals + recipient counts
- `output/articles/repo-pulse-*.md` (legacy; the skill was retired, so usually absent) - daily star/fork delta entries summed across the window
- `memory/MEMORY.md` — last consolidation da
