-## Pending
+## 🔴 CRITICAL - Must Complete Before Production
 
 ### AIPA Operations
-
-- [ ] Create Docker environment for web scraping tooling
-- [ ] Implement fail2ban or similar security for systems
-- [ ] Implement agent switching or addressing
-- [ ] Format thoughts
-- [ ] Externalize embedding calls
+- [ ] **Implement fail2ban or similar security for systems** 
+  - *Reason: Security hardening required before deployment*
+  - *Estimated: 2-3 hours*
 
 ### AIPA Bugs
+- [ ] **Fix thoughts not scrolling when they're very long**
+  - *Reason: UX blocker affecting daily operations*
+  - *Estimated: 1-2 hours*
 
-- [x] Sending more request tokens than context allows - **Fixed: 2026-04-06**
-- [ ] Thoughts not scrolling when they're very long
+## 🟡 HIGH PRIORITY - Strongly Recommended
+
+### In Progress
+- [ ] **Memory for AIPA** - Implement memory system for AIPA
+  - *Status: Already in progress*
+  - *Reason: Foundation for agent functionality*
+  - *Estimated: 4-6 hours remaining*
+
+## 🟢 MEDIUM PRIORITY - Can Wait Post-Deployment
+
+### AIPA Operations
+- [ ] Create Docker environment for web scraping tooling
+  - *Reason: Enables tooling but not blocking for initial deployment*
+  - *Can be done after production launch*
+
+- [ ] Implement agent switching or addressing
+  - *Reason: Depends on memory system completion*
+  - *Can wait until after memory is done*
+
+- [ ] Format thoughts
+  - *Reason: Depends on memory system*
+  - *Can wait*
+
+- [ ] Externalize embedding calls
+  - *Reason: Performance optimization*
+  - *Can wait until post-launch*
+
+## 📋 LOW PRIORITY - Non-Critical
 
 ### General Tasks
-
 - [ ] Prep 18650 batteries for sale
+  - *Reason: Business task, not related to AIPA operations*
+  - *Can be handled separately*
 
-## In Progress
-
-- [ ] **Memory for AIPA** - Implement memory system for AIPA
-
-## Completed
+## ✅ Completed

+### Production Deployment Checklist
+
+| Item | Status | Notes |
+|------|--------|-------|
+| Security (fail2ban) | 🟡 Pending | **BLOCKER** |
+| Memory System | 🟡 In Progress | Foundation for agents |
+| Critical Bug Fix | 🟡 Pending | UX blocker |
+| Docker Environment | 🟢 Optional | Can wait |
+| Agent Switching | 🟢 Optional | Depends on memory |
+| Embedding Externalization | 🟢 Optional | Performance only |
+
+### Recommended Production Plan
+
+**If deploying today:**
+1. ✅ Complete fail2ban implementation (2-3 hours)
+2. ✅ Fix scrolling bug (1-2 hours)  
+3. ⏸️ Pause memory work (can complete post-launch)
+4. ⏸️ Defer all other tasks
+
+**If not deploying today:**
+1. Complete memory system (4-6 hours)
+2. Complete fail2ban (2-3 hours)
+3. Fix scrolling bug (1-2 hours)
+4. Begin Docker environment setup
+
+> **Key Decision Point:** Do you need to go to production today? If yes, skip memory completion and focus only on security + critical bug fix. If no, complete memory system first as it unlocks other capabilities.
+
+> **Archived tasks:** See [ARCHIVED/Task History.md](ARCHIVED/Task%20History.md) for completed task history.
