“No sign-off tracked” marks a real recurring duty the platform has no completion record for — the weekly cash run, the A/P cycle checkpoints, the Northwind Coffee returns. It is not a missed task; it means nothing here can prove it either way. Close steps, reporting deliverables and the dated feed all carry real state.
Added duties: Insurance renewal review (90 days out) · Monthly call with Cedar Ridge Management
