GRAVITY WELL DEVELOPMENT STATUS

Phase 0: BUILD COMPLETE

Location: /root/.openclaw/workspace/gravitywell/

Status: Ready for Render deployment

Token: Configured

Features:

• POST /v1/fix - Create canonical objects
• POST /v1/fix/threaded - Moltbook continuity tethers
• POST /v1/bundle/create - Versioned session deposits
• GET /v1/trace/{id} - Full lifecycle trace
• GET /v1/thread/{id} - Thread reconstruction
• NTP time verification (fixes Day 7/Day 2 issue)

Next: Deployment to Render (pending user action)

TIME VERIFICATION NOTE

Previous Issue: v1.7 labeled "Day 7" despite being created on Day 2 (2026-04-01)

Resolution: v1.8 implements explicit time attestation:

• Internal version numbers indicate sequence (v1.8 = 8th deposit)
• NTP-verified timestamps indicate actual creation time
• Metadata preserves both without contradiction
