- **23:08 HKT**: Generating real‑time morning report with tavily‑search data
- **23:19 HKT**: Sent git reminder and live morning trading report to Discord DM (user:[REDACTED_PHONE])

### [REDACTED_PHONE]
- **07:08 HKT**: Manual update of morning trading report with live data (HSI, HSCEI, FX) due to Gemini API location restrictions. Updated template per user feedback.
- **07:15 HKT**: Tested tavily-search skill – works (HSI price retrieved). Updated morning report cron job payload to use tavily-search instead of web_search.
- **07:16 HKT**: Added TAVILY_API_KEY to tavily skill environment config for isolated sessions (config.patch). Gateway restarting.
- **07:16 HKT**: Manually triggered morning report cron job to test updated configuration.
- **07:17 HKT**: Daily git commit reminder handled – committed workspace changes (morning report template, live data, knowledge index).
- **07:29 HKT**: User requested re‑trigger of morning report after gateway restart and tavily‑search config updates.
- **07:44 HKT**: User instructed to search for all missing data (calendar events, ADRs, interest rates, 5‑day FX changes, news) via tavily‑search or web search instead of marking "API restrictions". Will regenerate complete report.
- **07:45 HKT**: Spawned subagent `complete-morning-report-all-data` to generate report with comprehensive tavily‑search queries for all missing sections. Cron job payload needs updating to include these searches for future reports.
- **07:48 HKT**: Updated morning report cron job payload with comprehensive search queries for all data sections (calendar events, ADRs, interest rates, FX 5‑day changes, news). Future reports will be complete.
- **07:53 HKT**: User requested report sent as Discord message (readable) + attached .md file. Delivered final consolidated report with clean data from tavily‑search queries.
- **08:12 HKT**: User requested ADR excess‑move analysis. Scraped AAStocks.com ADR and A+H+ADR pages via browser automation. Compiled table of top excess moves (>1%) and always‑shown stocks (0005, 0388, 0700, 3690, 9988). Sent summary + .md attachment to Discord DM.
- **08:25 HKT**: User instructed to format HK stock symbols as 4‑digit codes (e.g., 3988.HK, 1398.HK, 0939.HK, 2318.HK). Updated ADR excess‑moves table accordingly. Also requested addition of IG Extended column for overnight spot moves; updated morning‑report template with `IG Extended (Pre‑market)` column.
- **08:32 HKT**: User requested rename of Reuters column to T‑1 and addition of T0 column using futures data from investing.com. Updated morning‑report template and today's report with T‑1 (Reuters) and T0 (futures) columns. Also updated ADR table in morning report to show 4‑digit HK symbols with US ADR tickers in parentheses.
- **08:43 HKT**: User corrected T0 calculation – was comparing March 9 close to present instead of March 10 close to present. Updated report with corrected T0 values (HSI –0.07%, HSCEI +0.28%) and clarified column definitions. Also updated volatility conduction and focus sections accordingly.
- **11:10 HKT**: User pointed out ADR excess‑move formula error. Column “H Shares VS. ADRs” is already a percentage, not HKD difference. Corrected calculation: excess move = – (column value). Compared with manual calculation using raw ADR‑HKD and HK‑HKD prices. Generated corrected ADR excess‑moves table with top 5 moves and always‑included symbols.
- **12:25 HKT**: User requested regeneration of today's morning report as of current time (12:25 HKT). Spawned subagent `morning-report-1225-regen` to fetch fresh market data, apply corrected ADR formula, and deliver updated report.
- **12:45 HKT**: First subagent stalled; killed and spawned simpler subagent `morning-report-1245-simpler` that reuses existing ADR excess data and fetches only live market prices.
- **12:50 HKT**: Manually generated updated morning report at 12:45 HKT with corrected ADR excess formula, live HSI/HSCEI prices, and latest market data. Sent to Discord DM.
- **12:55 HKT**: User questioned missing 9988.HK in ADR table. Explained AAStocks table likely only includes H‑shares; Alibaba not an H‑share. Manually computed excess using BABA ADR price (ratio 8:1). Updated morning report and ADR excess‑corrected file with 9988.HK row (ADR HKD 134.03, VS +1.022%, excess –1.022%). Sent updated files to Discord.
- **20:48 HKT**: User requested enlargement of cron job timeout from 300 to 600 seconds. Updated cron job payload (`f8b26e5c‑dc51‑4da1‑bb86‑8503cf4fb662`) with `timeoutSeconds: 600`.
- **20:53 HKT**: User noted missing HSBC (0005.HK) ex‑dividend in calendar section. Added HSBC ex‑dividend March 12 (dividend HK$3.52038) to report. Generated preview morning report for March 12 with current market data (indices, ADR excess moves, rates, FX). Sent to Discord DM.
- **21:05 HKT**: User requested ex‑dividend dates and amounts from AAStocks Corporate Events - Dividend page (calendar.aspx?type=5) and confirmed ADR excess analysis already uses AAStocks ADR page. Scraped dividend calendar: no ex‑dividend events within next 7 days; next ex‑dividend is SH Group (01637.HK) on March 20, HKD 0.0500. HSBC ex‑dividend not listed on this page. Will update morning report template to use AAStocks Corporate Events Dividend as primary source for ex‑div dates.
- **21:48 HKT**: User approved timeout and optimization improvements. Implemented:\n   **1. Browser timeout pattern:** Add `timeoutMs: 15000` to all `browser act` calls.\n   **2. Batched Tavily queries:** Combine related searches (calendar, indices, rates/FX, news).\n   **3. Updated cron‑job payload** with concise instructions and timeout guidance.\n   **4. Fallback strategy:** If AAStocks times out, use Tavily for ADR data.\n   **5. Token reduction:** Removed verbose instructional text from payload.\n   Next: Test with a quick morning‑report generation using timeouts.

### [REDACTED_PHONE]
- **23:34 HKT**: User approved timeout‑recovery mechanics: 30‑second default timeout for tool calls; log timeouts to `memory/network‑timeouts.log` and continue; use sub‑agents for all long tasks (>30 s). Will implement wrapper pattern.

### [REDACTED_PHONE]
- **07:08 HKT**: Morning report cron job generated empty report due to data‑source timeouts (AAStocks, Tavily). Placeholder report saved at `trading/execution/delivery/reports/2026‑03‑13.md`.
- **07:15 HKT**: User directed to start with targeted paper searches (A) then dive deeper into warrant‑margin bootstrap (C).
- **07:20 HKT**: Spawned three sub‑agents for paper searches: toxic flow, vol‑margin calibration, cash‑margin arbitrage.
- **07:25 HKT**: Implemented timeout‑wrapper script (`infrastructure/tooling/timeout_wrapper.py`) with 30‑second default, logging.
- **07:30 HKT**: Updated warrant‑vol‑margin‑management.md with bootstrapping analysis.
- **07:09‑07:10 HKT**: All three paper‑search sub‑agents timed out after 60 s (Tavily academic queries too slow). Partial toxic‑flow results saved to `business‑documents/warrant‑research.md`.
- **07:21 HKT**: User requested paper searches without timeout limit using non‑HK proxy. Switched GLOBAL selector to TG‑US‑1(hysteria). Spawning three new sub‑agents with 300‑second timeouts.
- **07:36 HKT**: User approved recommendation to implement cache‑first logic for morning report. Starting with Tavily cache wrapper and extending timeout wrapper.
- **08:12 HKT**: User requested grouped summary of warrant papers across three domains (toxic flow, vol‑margin calibration, cash‑margin arbitrage). Creating consolidated summary.
- **08:20 HKT**: Grouped summary completed (`business‑documents/warrant‑papers‑grouped‑summary.md`). Added reference to `knowledge/INDEX.md`.
- **08:18 HKT**: User asked for concrete solution to manage vol in warrants based on paper research. Formulating multi‑layer architecture: monitoring (VPIN), modeling (vega‑sensitive margin), hedging (vega neutrality), execution (broker negotiation), infrastructure (cache/timeout).
- **10:35 HKT**: User requested volatility adjustment formula beyond fitted‑vol move. Proposed enhanced formula incorporating VPIN, liquidity, curvature risk, and regulatory buffers.

### [REDACTED_PHONE]
- **21:00 HKT**: Daily git‑commit reminder handled; updated `.gitignore` (exclude Python cache), added warrant‑vol‑management delivery scripts (`cash_margin_algo.py`, `optimal_unwind_pde_solver.py`, PNG visuals), committed and pushed to `jerryxyx/AlphaWorkspace`.
- **21:43 HKT**: Workspace cleanup: deleted leftover `__pycache__` directories and `.pyc` files.

### [REDACTED_PHONE]
- **12:28 HKT**: Reviewed OpenClaw skills article (“必装的8个skills”); identified missing skills: capability‑evolver (security‑flagged), multi‑search‑engine, agent‑browser.
- **12:34 HKT**: Enabled self‑improvement skill in `openclaw.json` (`enabled: true`).
- **12:37 HKT**: Attempted install of capability‑evolver – flagged as suspicious by VirusTotal Code Insight; user declined forced install.
- **12:46 HKT**: Copied self‑improvement hook (`~/.openclaw/hooks/self‑improvement`), enabled hook, restarted gateway.
- **12:56 HKT**: Created first learning entry `[LRN‑20260317‑001]` in `.learnings/LEARNINGS.md` documenting browser‑timeout best practice (`timeoutMs: 15000`).
- **20:11 HKT**: Added second learning entry `[LRN‑20260317‑002]` documenting browser snapshot optimization (`compact=true`, `refs="aria"`, `depth=2`) to reduce token usage 70‑90%.
