FACTUAL ACTIVITY RECORD · An activity record based on work that took place
Adapting the daily editorial service to a dynamic roster
Removing the fixed roster and running safely with environment-aware setup and shared locking
Purpose
Daily editorial execution depended on a fixed roster and environment-specific paths. The resident service needed to follow changes in custom roles while preventing scheduled and manual runs from performing duplicate work.
Implementation
The roster was separated from a fixed array so project-defined custom roles can be handled at runtime. Configuration, operating prompts, and tests were updated around the dynamic roster.
Installation now generates a service configuration from the active Node and project paths and validates it before registration. Manual run-now executes the same work in the foreground and shares a lock with scheduled runs to prevent overlap. Status and recoverable uninstall joined the same operating interface.
The primary diff replaced a distributed static plist with one generated during installation from the current execution context. Only the XML declaration and auxiliary keys are omitted.

What was confirmed
Verification results
Tests confirmed that roster configuration and prompt generation no longer depended on fixed values.
Run-now executed safely under the shared lock and exited without resubmitting content that was already present.
Uninstall and reinstall were exercised, then the schedule, previous successful exit, and registration state were confirmed. Resident operation was applied at the cutoff.
Basis for completion
Completion required a dynamic roster and shared-lock execution path, verified through manual execution, removal, reinstall, and scheduled-service status.
