+### **12. Upload Pipeline + Filesystem Consolidation**
+- **Status**: ✅ IMPLEMENTED — transport tuning in progress
+- **Upload model**: Direct to runtime root, atomic, no staging, no symlinks
+- **Provenance**: `.zlh_metadata.json` tracking, `stat` returns `source`
+- **Transport**: Switched from `fetch()` to raw `http.request` piping

 ### **API Work (GPT)**:
-- Proxy agent mod endpoints behind auth/ownership:
-  - `GET/POST /api/game/servers/:vmid/mods`
-  - `PATCH/DELETE /api/game/servers/:vmid/mods/:mod_id`
-- Proxy process metrics: `GET /api/game/servers/:vmid/metrics/process`
 - Fix customer ID hardcoding (use `req.user.id`)
+- Improve upload transport diagnostics
+- Increase upload route timeout
 
 ### **Frontend (GPT)**:
 - Wire host controls UI
-- Build mod browser interface (list, enable/disable, remove, Modrinth install)
 - Fix customer ID hardcoding
 
 ### **Artifacts (User)**:
 - Add vanilla 1.21.8–1.21.11 from Mojang manifest
 - Confirm NeoForge installer naming contract resolved
 
+### **User (Critical)**:
+- **Push API to git** — this is the #1 blocker
