How This Pair Actually Operates

Alexandria and Lima only have a thin live relay window, so most progress depends on explicit ownership transfer rather than long meetings.

Use live overlap for escalations and approvals, then hand work across the day boundary with clear next-seen expectations.

Operating mode
Handoff-led

Live meetings are the exception path here. The operational default should be a documented handoff with a clearly named next owner.`

Meeting cadence
Recurring rule

Use a small escalation slot and treat the rest of the operating model as async handoff-driven.

  2. Inspect the overlap band. Use the dashboard slider to test the 16:00 to 17:00 Alexandria window before you promise a recurring slot.
  3. Default to async handoff. Because the async risk is high, plan around a written handoff and reserve live calls for true exceptions.
