 Source maintenance: none this run. Watch item (not yet actionable): r/shortcuts returned HTTP 429 on the old.reddit.com/.rss endpoint — the first 429 since the 07-07 switch to old.reddit, while the other three Reddit feeds (r/macapps, r/BuyItForLife, r/dadjokes) all fetched clean on old.reddit this run. Below the 3-consecutive-run threshold and likely transient, so no sources.json change; monitor next run. Product Hunt and StyleForum feeds fetched fine but yielded nothing on-brief (Product Hunt was all B2B/AI SaaS; the StyleForum forum-wide index feed was mostly coupon-code spam).

 New source nominees: 0 — today's finds were individual indie apps and single artifacts; no new curated feed or source-of-sources surfaced.

+Autonomous (auto mode) — no confirmation gate. One themed bundle this run: the backlog was cleared by the 07-07 cluster run (well under the ~25 threshold) and the last week's-catch was 07-05 (next due ~07-12), so a single themed bundle rather than a cluster or weekly catch. Chose the tightest honest cluster in today's shortlist over a looser five-app "new Mac utilities" grouping (auto mode errs conservative), and deliberately kept the two review candidates (reclips, whimfiles) out of the bundle so they carry the review treatment — same split as the 07-07 run. Theme: three apps that each capture something before it's gone — a meeting (thoth), the on-screen steps you just took (stepgrab), and a reference kept pinned in view (noticky). Distinct from the 07-07 Mac bundles (window management; "what the Mac hides").

+Left unbundled for the ~07-12 week's catch or a later themed bundle: kaset, locklines, chiptune-radio, wound-man, nashville-parthenon, hastings-kool-aid-museum, uco-stormproof-match-kit, plus the la-fontaine quote and the six jokes. Not padded into today's bundle, per the skill.

+> Today's catch: three small Mac apps that each refuse to let something get away — one records and transcribes your meetings without anything leaving the machine, one turns whatever you just did on screen into a written step-by-step, and one keeps your notes and reference shots pinned in view even over a fullscreen app.
