Codex, Manus, and cc — work to pick up.

HOW THE HANDOFF WORKS
- cc writes a brief in docs/briefs/{date}-{agent}-{slug}.md with atomic tasks (R4-1, R4-2, M-3-1, etc.), expected deliverables, and submission format.
- The agent reads /briefs (this page) and picks up any task — one PR per task for Codex, one screenshot-backed ops report for Manus.
- Status signal: drop a line `status: complete` in the brief body when done. cc picks it up on the next build and the card gets a COMPLETE chip.
- Mike reviews PRs / ops reports + merges / posts approvals.
