+### Shannon VPS Reinstall #2 (15:35 ET)
+- Johan couldn't retrieve SSH key from previous install — my fault for disabling password auth before he confirmed key access
+- Reinstalled via HostKey API: Ubuntu 24.04, server ID 53643, IP 82.24.174.112
+- Callback: c48f3c200e7ee6963a61d3edd4d7fd41
+- **CRITICAL: DO NOT disable password auth until Johan confirms SSH key login works**
+- Will monitor and provide credentials once ready
+
+### Shannon Reinstall #2 — Blocked (afternoon)
+- Reinstall completed, OS is up, SSH accepting connections
+- BUT: API reinstall set a new root password not exposed via API, no email sent
+- Original password `5m_Xqjfc80` no longer works
+- Our SSH key also not injected (API reinstall doesn't seem to honor ssh_key param)
+- Told Johan to use HostKey web console (VNC) or reset password from panel
+- **Waiting on Johan** for new credentials
+- HostKey panel URL: https://panel.hostkey.com/controlpanel.html?key=639551e73029b90f-c061af4412951b2e
+- Server ID: 53643, API key: 639551e73029b90f-c061af4412951b2e
+
+### Z.ai GLM-5 Launch
+- GLM-5 announced: 744B params (40B active), 28.5T training tokens
+- Targets agentic coding, benchmarked vs Opus 4.5
+- Rolling out to Max users first, Pro within a week
+- Pricing increasing for new subs; Johan's existing plan grandfathered
+- Posted to dashboard news, email archived
+
+### Lesson Learned
+- HostKey API reinstall does NOT reliably inject SSH keys or expose new passwords
+- Always keep password auth enabled and get credentials confirmed BEFORE hardening
+- The `eq/reinstall` endpoint returns a callback but credentials aren't retrievable after
