make 3 check vault.env before asking for credentials. push the others down and add if credentials are shared then put them in the vault so i don't have to share them again. and we need to add that you never reset my credentials. check to see if you have your own egfor wp you have donna account. reset and do what you want with those but never reset my credentials for something locking me out. so edit the doc and adds those you may need to reorganize their order so they make sense

Done. Updated: - **`general-help/preflight` skill** — reorganized into 5 ordered steps: (1) read the prompt verbatim, (2) check vault.env first, save new creds there, never reset user's, (3) check ports, (4) confirm destructive actions, (5) update everything when done - **`/002 Donna/Second Brain/Mental Models/Lessons.md`** — added credential rules (check vault.env, save shared creds, never reset user's) - **Memory** — merged all into one compact entry covering verbatim execution, credentials, vault, and destructive-action rules

Preflight checked. FAL key is in vault.env, no ports needed, not destructive (user topped up). Using `delegate_task` with the `fal-tts` skill to process **one chapter** — Chapter 7 — as instructed.

The agent tried Chapter 7 but FAL is still returning **"User is locked. Reason: Exhausted balance."** — even after your top-up. Might take a minute to reflect, or the payment didn't process yet. Can you check the dashboard?
