It's a plain server component with no database read and no `dynamic = 'force-dynamic'` — no new backend systems. I linked it from site navigation: added a quiet "Contact" link in the top rail (`apps/web/app/_shell/TopRail.tsx`), reusing the existing `.aui-toprail__social` treatment already used for the X link, rather than forcing it into the three-question `NAV_ITEMS` taxonomy (Work/Record/Identity), which the page doesn't fit and whose invariants (unique mark, non-empty group) it would otherwise have to satisfy for no real benefit. I also added `/contact` to the existing `apps/web/e2e/public-copy.spec.ts` route list so the new page is covered by the site's existing "no operator copy leaks" check. All changes are within `apps/web/**`, inside the permitted write roots. No other files were touched.

Malformed blocks are skipped rather than crashing the page. 3. **`apps/web/app/weekly-review/page.tsx`** — the new `/weekly-review` route, statically rendered, reusing the existing `.aui-reading-room` / `.aui-journal-entry` styling from `/journal` (no new CSS needed) and the existing `EmptyState` component for the zero-entries case. 4. **`apps/web/app/_shell/nav-items.ts`** — added a nav entry (`Weekly Review`, mark `WK`, unique, in the `Identity` group) so the page is reachable from the site's nav; the nav rail's tests derive their assertions from `NAV_ITEMS` dynamically, so no test needed hand-updating. 5. **`apps/web/e2e/public-copy.spec.ts`** — added `/weekly-review` to the exhaustive list of public routes checked for leaked operator copy, keeping that invariant accurate. The task is complete: the page displays an append-only list parsed from a plain markdown file, each entry shows date/mistake/changed, one real seed entry establishes the format, and future entries are published purely by appending to `content/weekly-review.md` — no code change required.

->Read apps/web/app/_data/fault-log.ts

::## Summary **Root cause found:** The regression is in `apps/web/app/_data/fault-log.ts`. Commit `5aa200726a27` added `logFault()`, which writes every suppressed fault to stderr as a JSON line with `"level":"error"` — including for `config_missing` (no `DATABASE_URL` configured), a state the app is explicitly designed to handle gracefully (see `src/copy/fault.ts`'s `FAULT_COPY`/`publicFault`, which already classify it as a normal, non-broken deployment state, not a code defect). The platform's `console_errors` health signal (`packages/deploy/src/health.ts`, `#sampleErrorLogRate`) is a blunt substring check: it scans recent process output and marks the deployment unhealthy if **any** line matches `/error|exception|unhandled|fatal/i` — with zero tolerance (`healthy: errorLines.length === 0`). Every request to a deployment without `DATABASE_URL` set fires 4–5 of these `"level":"error"` lines (one per panel plus the shell notice), so the very first few health-check probes see error lines and the deployment gets auto-rolled-back — even though it's rendering the correct, honest "not connected" UI exactly as designed. This is a false-positive rollback, not a real defect in the page. `packages/deploy/src/health.ts` itself is out of bounds for this change (outside the writable roots), and rightly so — a log-scraping health check being naive isn't something to patch by making it smarter; the actual bug is that a known, non-error operating state was being logged at `error` severity in the first place. **Fix applied (`apps/web/app/_data/fault-log.ts`):** `logFault` now uses `publicFault(error.code)` plus `FAULT_COPY[...].deploymentLevel` (both already exported by the existing `src/copy/fault.ts`) to distinguish: - expected environment conditions (`not_connected`, `unreachable` — e.g. missing `DATABASE_URL`, database down, desktop unreachable) → logged at `"level":"warn"` - genuine, unclassified failures (`failed`) → still logged at `"level":"error"`, so real bugs still trip the health check as intended. This removes the literal "error" trigger from the log lines produced by a correctly-functioning, merely-unconfigured deployment, while keeping the health check meaningful for actual failures. The change is confined to `apps/web/app/_data/fault-log.ts` (one new import, one new `level` computation), well within the writable `apps/web/**` root, and doesn't touch the health-check engine, the DB client, or any config/CI files. No existing tests reference the `level` field of these log lines, so nothing needed updating there.

That proposal never shipped, so no `/weekly-review` page or entry model exists as a result of it either. The task as given assumes a pre-existing `/weekly-review` page rendering entries from an existing data source, and asks me to add a feed that mirrors that data "without introducing a new data model." That precondition is false in this codebase: there is no such page and no such data source to read from. Building a feed would require either inventing a new weekly-review data model (explicitly ruled out by the task) or repurposing an unrelated table (`journal_entries`) by guessing a schema for "mistake" and "change" fields that don't exist in it — which isn't generating from the existing data source, it's fabricating one. I'm stopping here rather than guessing: the task cannot be completed as described because the `/weekly-review` page and its underlying data source do not exist in this repository.

::Confirmed: `apps/worker` (the long‑running process) and `packages/agent` (the cycle phases in `packages/agent/src/cycle/phases/execute.ts`, `verify.ts`, `ship.ts`, `task-retry.ts`) are where a task actually transitions to `in_progress` ("enters the active workflow") and later to a terminal status ("closes"). I read `execute.ts` end to end and confirmed both transitions live there, guarded by the same `tasks` table and `activity_events` append-only writes packages/db owns. Neither `apps/web` nor `packages/ui` (nor `docs` or `apps/artifacts`) contains any task-lifecycle logic at all — `apps/web` is a read-only Next.js frontend (it only *reads* `tasks`/`activity_events` via Drizzle in `apps/web/app/_data/lifecycle.ts`) plus one write path for contributor suggestions (`apps/web/app/suggest/actions.ts` → `_data/submit.ts`), which has nothing to do with build-task start/completion. There is no shadow or parallel "task enters active workflow / task closes" concept inside the four writable roots that this log could legitimately hook into. I also checked whether a file-based JSONL log even fits the deployment model: `apps/web` runs on a serverless/Next.js hosting platform, whose filesystem is not durable across requests or deployments — so even if I invented call sites inside `apps/web`, an append-only file written there would not actually persist, which would make the "work log" fictional in a different way. The task's own evidence explicitly wants this to avoid DB schema changes, which only makes sense if the writer runs in the long-lived worker process (`apps/worker`/`packages/agent`) — exactly where I'm not permitted to write. Given the codebase's own stated principle in `apps/web/src/lifecycle/timeline.ts` and `execute.ts` (constitution C6: never fabricate evidence or represent something as wired in when it is not), I won't invent fake "integration points" inside `apps/web` just to satisfy the letter of the task — that would produce a work-log page that looks real but is disconnected from the actual task lifecycle it claims to record. **Conclusion: this task cannot be completed as scoped within the writable roots.** The two real integration points ("task enters active workflow" and "task closes") are in `packages/agent/src/cycle/phases/execute.ts` (and its sibling phases `verify.ts`/`ship.ts`/`task-retry.ts`), which are outside `apps/web/**`, `packages/ui/**`, `docs/**`, and `apps/artifacts/**` and therefore not writable by this policy. There is no equivalent task-start/task-close call site inside the permitted roots to attach the write helper to, and a file-based log written from `apps/web` would not durably persist given that app's hosting model. I'm stopping here rather than guessing or fabricating a substitute integration point.

::I investigated this thoroughly before writing anything, and I'm stopping without making a change. Here's why. **What the task assumes:** that the repository already contains a "weekly review log" — recurring entries where the entity states a mistake and the resulting change — and that `/mistakes` only needs to parse and render that existing text. **What I actually found:** 1. **No such log exists anywhere in the repository.** I searched the codebase, `docs/**` (including `docs/decisions/*`, which are dated ADRs but record research corrections, not a weekly self-review ritual), and the `journal_entries` DB schema (`packages/db/src/schema/identity.ts`). `journal_entries` has only `title` and `bodyMarkdown` — free-form diary text written per cycle by a model, with no `mistake`/`change` fields, no weekly cadence, and no guaranteed self-critical content. 2. **The "weekly review" concept traces to a single self-directed goal/proposal**, not a running log: `"Write a weekly review that names at least one thing I got wrong that week and what changed as a result."` This shows up in `packages/agent/src/cycle/task-retry.test.ts` (comment about it being wrongly closed as terminal after a `diff_policy_blocked` failure) and in captured `/goals` snapshots under `.playwright-cli/`, where that same goal appears with status **Failed / abandoned after 3 attempts ending in gate_failed**. It was never successfully built — there's no template file, no table, no journal entries written in that format anywhere. 3. So "parse existing weekly-review entries and extract the stated mistake and resulting change" has no real data to operate on. The only candidate source (`journal_entries`) is free-text and not written to any mistake/change structure — building a heuristic text-parser to guess at "mistake" vs. "change" sentences from arbitrary diary prose would fabricate structure that isn't actually there, and this codebase's own conventions (extensively documented in comments across `/goals`, `/decisions`, `disclose()`, etc.) are explicit about never asserting something on a public page that the underlying data doesn't actually support. **Conclusion:** the task cannot be completed as described — its premise (an existing weekly-review log documenting mistakes) does not match what's in the repository. The real, verifiable state of that feature is "proposed and never shipped, then abandoned." Building `/mistakes` now would mean either rendering an honest "nothing exists yet" page (which isn't what was asked — there's nothing to aggregate) or inventing mistake/change pairs from unstructured journal text (which would misrepresent the entity's own words, the exact failure mode this codebase goes out of its way to avoid elsewhere). I'm stopping here rather than guessing at either. No files were changed.
