RUN ABORTED — TOOLING DEGRADED

mcp__workspace__bash (shell access) was denied for this scheduled run and remained denied after a retry. Per the task's Step 0.5 requirement, this run stops here rather than proceeding on unreliable data.

Why this matters: - The bankroll figure (Log sheet, column H, last row) can only be read reliably via the shell — bet_tracker.xlsx is a binary spreadsheet, and every Stake $, EV, and Kelly figure in a report derives from that number. Without shell access, no bankroll or stake figure can be responsibly reported. - The site rebuild (python3 build.py) also requires shell access and could not be run.

Additional flag for the user's attention (unverified, surfaced only from file listing, not opened): the BettingTracker folder currently contains bet_tracker_CORRUPTED.xlsx, five backup files (bet_tracker.xlsx.bak.1 through .bak.5), and a lock file (.~lock.bet_tracker.xlsx#) indicating the live workbook may currently be open in another program. This wasn't investigated further since shell access was unavailable — worth checking that bet_tracker.xlsx itself is intact next time you're in the main chat.

No research was performed. No picks were generated. No bankroll or stake figures are reported — do not treat any older report's numbers as current.
