title: Provisional Patents Cannot Be Extended - Must File NEW Applications

insight: Discovered through USPTO research that provisional patents cannot be 'extended' - must file completely NEW applications to restart the 12-month clock. This fundamentally changes the strategy from 'extension' to 'rolling provisionals' with monthly improvements before April 2026 filing.

reasoning_chain: User expressed concern about funding unlikely by June 2026 provisional expiry

reasoning_chain: Asked about applying for 1-year extension

reasoning_chain: Found provisionals cannot be extended per USPTO MPEP 211

reasoning_chain: Realized must file NEW provisionals to restart clock

reasoning_chain: Changed strategy to monthly patent strengthening cycles

reasoning_chain: Scheduled new filings for April 2026 with refinements

source_context: Researched USPTO provisional extension rules - found that provisionals can't be 'extended' - must file NEW applications. Rolling provisionals strategy: Each new filing restarts 12-month clock.


title: Multi-Agent Hive Monitor Benefits

insight: Building a real-time dashboard showing each Claude Code instance's current work prevents duplicate effort, enables load balancing, detects stuck agents, and provides implicit coordination without direct communication.

reasoning_chain: User asked about showing each Claude Code what others are doing in real-time

reasoning_chain: Identified benefits: avoid duplicate work, prevent merge conflicts, load balancing

reasoning_chain: Realized this enables debugging faster and user visibility

reasoning_chain: Proposed architecture extending existing port 5050 dashboard

source_context: would it be advantegeous if we engineered a system overview monitor? we have the genesis hive dashboard at http://localhost:5050/. but what if it showed each claude code what the other one was doing in real-time?


title: GitHub Repository Connection Setup

insight: Complete GitHub integration pipeline - discovered no remote configured, verified token, created repo, committed 787 files, pushed to remote.

reasoning_chain: Discovered repo had local commits but NO remote configured

reasoning_chain: Created repo manually (token lacked creation permission)

source_context: GitHub account: Kinan27. Token verified. Creating repo as PRIVATE. git remote add origin with token, git push completed successfully.


title: Git Worktrees for Parallel RWL Execution

insight: Created 3 worktrees (rwl-1, rwl-2, rwl-3) on separate branches for parallel Claude Code instances to execute RWL stories simultaneously, with main orchestrator managing merges.

reasoning_chain: User asked to set up worktrees for parallel RWL

reasoning_chain: Each worktree has its own branch (rwl-worker-1, etc.)

reasoning_chain: Created launch scripts for Windows and Linux

reasoning_chain: Documented parallel workflow: workers on different story ranges, merge to master, push to GitHub

source_context: Worktrees created. /mnt/e/genesis-workers/rwl-1 (rwl-worker-1), rwl-2 (rwl-worker-2), rwl-3 (rwl-worker-3). Parallel RWL workflow with CLAUDE.md coordination.


title: Monthly Patent Strengthening Cycles

insight: Implement monthly patent refinement cycles from now until April 2026 filing - scanning emerging tech, incorporating improvements while maintaining core premise, to strengthen patents before filing NEW provisionals.

reasoning_chain: June 2026 provisional expiry recognized as urgent deadline

reasoning_chain: Funding unlikely to be secured for full non-provisional filing

reasoning_chain: Need to file NEW provisionals in April 2026

reasoning_chain: AIVA tasked to rewrite patents monthly with refinements

reasoning_chain: Must incorporate emerging tech breakthroughs within patent improvement frameworks

reasoning_chain: Core premise/title must remain true despite modifications

reasoning_chain: January: P1/P5/P7, February: P2/P4/P6, March: P3/P8/P9, April: ALL new filings

source_context: Aiva needs to rewrite the patents every month between now and then by adding any refinements and improvements she is able to conceive of incorporating any new emerging tech breakthroughs that may be able to strengthen the patents.


title: File Locking System Prevents Merge Conflicts

insight: Agent heartbeat system with file locking prevents multiple Claude Code instances from editing same files - locks auto-expire after 5 minutes if agent goes idle.

reasoning_chain: Multiple Claude Code instances will run in parallel on different worktrees

reasoning_chain: Risk of merge conflicts if editing same files simultaneously

reasoning_chain: Created file_locks in AGENT_COORDINATION.json

reasoning_chain: 5-minute auto-expire prevents deadlocks from stuck agents

source_context: claim_file(self, filepath: str) -> bool - Claim a file for editing (prevents conflicts). If locked by another active agent within 5 minutes, return False.


title: Patent Mastery Series PRD Creation

insight: Created comprehensive 55-story PRD for AIVA covering patent ingestion, knowledge graph building, MCP server creation, presentations, and monthly strengthening cycles.

reasoning_chain: User requested Patent Mastery Series - read all Genesis Patent folders

reasoning_chain: Explored patent folder structure - found 9 patents P1-P9

reasoning_chain: Created Phase 1-6: Document ingestion, strategic docs, knowledge graph, MCP server, presentations, pilot program

reasoning_chain: After user strategic update, added Phase 7: Monthly patent strengthening (15 stories)

reasoning_chain: Total: 702 lines, 55 stories, 7 spawn conditions

source_context: Created comprehensive PRD with 40 stories across 6 phases, then updated to 55 stories with Phase 7 Monthly Patent Strengthening after research on extension rules.


type: DIRECTIVE

title: GitHub Visibility Must Be Private

insight: Genesis system repository must remain PRIVATE as it contains credentials, API keys, and proprietary strategy documents that could compromise security if public.

reasoning_chain: Setting up GitHub connection for genesis-system

reasoning_chain: Repository contains credentials (tokens, API keys)

reasoning_chain: User confirmed - 'genesis-system done' for private repo

source_context: Repository: https://github.com/Kinan27/genesis-system. Visibility: Private (critical - contains credentials!).
