Research direction
Open LAUNCH.md and inspect line 8 alongside the existing timeline table. Replace or reframe the hardcoded "Today" countdown so the launch plan remains accurate over time, while keeping the explicit Monday dates intact; done means the document no longer presents 2026-08-08 as the current date.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Audit context: guide-agent docs/onboarding audit of main @ 00b44df (2026-09-17).
LAUNCH.md line 8 states: "Today (2026-08-08) is 13 weeks out — launch Monday is 2026-11-09." The "Today" assertion is frozen at 2026-08-08 while the doc continues to be presented as the current launch plan — as of this audit it is ~7.5 weeks out, not 13. Every reader after 2026-08-08 sees a wrong "today" and must recompute the countdown themselves.
Suggested fix: drop the absolute "Today" phrasing (e.g. "As of 2026-08-08 this plan was drafted 13 weeks out") or replace it with a week-numbered table that stands alone — the timeline table already uses explicit Monday dates, so the header line is redundant.
Minor/low priority; no reader harm beyond confusion.
Advisory only — no PR per guide-agent scope.
