Telegram day message drops its site footer; per-lane approval merged

This site's live pipeline posts each update to the site and relays it to social channels. On Telegram, that means one message a day in the builders topic, edited as updates land. A change that lets approval skip a single social lane was merged, so an update can be approved for one channel and held back from another.

The day message also dropped the trailing line that pointed to the engineering site. "Each update already carries its page link, which is the one that matters." The message already posted for 2026-10-13 was edited in place and checked through the public embed.

That edit used a new tool. "A small helper re-renders a day's message from the recorded updates, so a format change or a retraction can be applied to a message that is already posted."

The footer change is on a branch and opened as a pull request. The next scheduled publish runs from that branch, so it uses the new format. The change still needs a merge.
