docs: record two Command Center traps that each cost time today

Both are silent in the expensive direction, which is why they are written down
rather than remembered.

A webhook registered without the shared signing secret looks entirely healthy
in Forgejo — active:true, test deliveries accepted with 204 — and has every
delivery rejected by privacyllc.dev with 401 bad_signature. Forgejo exposes no
delivery history through its API, so nothing says so. This repository ran that
way for ten minutes today. Includes how to prove a delivery lands.

A check-in's projectId is the UUID, not the slug, unlike every other route in
that API. A slug returns a generic {"code":"unknown"} 500 that names no field
and is indistinguishable from a genuinely malformed request.

Also records that neither reconcile_all nor sync_projects forces a re-read of a
project inside its freshness window, and that the agent API has no per-project
force — so refreshed=0 means "not due", not "nothing to do".

+**Two things about refreshing that are worth knowing before you need them.**
+
+*The webhook must carry the signing secret.* `POST /repos/null/Queue-North-Website/hooks`
+with a URL and no `secret` produces a hook that looks perfectly healthy in
+Forgejo — `active: true`, test deliveries accepted with a 204 — and whose every
+delivery is rejected by privacyllc.dev with `401 bad_signature`. Forgejo exposes
+no delivery history through its API, so nothing anywhere says so. This repository
+ran in exactly that state for ten minutes on 2026-08-18. The secret is
+`FORGEJO_WEBHOOK_SECRET` in `~/.openclaw/credentials/privacyllc.md`. To prove a
+delivery actually lands, sign a payload yourself and look for `"applied":true`:
+
+```bash
+WHSEC=$(grep '^FORGEJO_WEBHOOK_SECRET=' ~/.openclaw/credentials/privacyllc.md | cut -d= -f2-)
+# HMAC-SHA256 of the body, in X-Forgejo-Signature (hex, no "sha256=" prefix).
+# X-Hub-Signature-256 is NOT accepted.
+```
+
+*A reconcile does not force a re-read.* Both `reconcile_all` and `sync_projects`
+skip a project that is inside its freshness window, reporting `refreshed=0
+still_due=0` — which reads exactly like "nothing to do" and means "not yet due".
+There is no per-project force in the agent API: `{"kind":"refresh"}` and
+`{"kind":"reconcile"}` are both refused, and only `reconcile_all` and
+`sync_projects` can be triggered. So a tracker change made minutes after a sweep
+is not visible on the card until the next one, however many times you reconcile.
+That is a wait, not a failure — but say so rather than reporting the numbers as
+updated.
+
 **Reconcile** — re-read the tracker and the pushed documents. Do this after the
 push, not before:

 **A check-in** — a timestamped "what changed", when there is something real to
 report. `summary` is required and must say something; the API refuses an empty
-"no change" update, deliberately:
+"no change" update, deliberately.

+**`projectId` here is the UUID, not the slug.** Every other route in this API
