 Price-watch automation runs append time-series snapshots in `price-watch/history.jsonl`, which the app turns into per-option trend lines and decision detail cards. Automation output should cover hotels, flights, golf, nightlife, and excursions, with `bookingType` and `priceBasis` separating package quotes from standalone booking prices.
 When a run includes calculated `budgetScenarios` or `derivedItineraries`, the app uses those fresh automation calculations instead of the static seed budget scenarios.
 Guest access is rostered in `seed-data.js` and `data/votes.json`; Jon is marked as groom and Toph as best man.
+The live automation itself runs from `~/.codex/automations/cabo-price-watch/automation.toml`, and its human-readable and machine-readable outputs are written back into this repo under `price-watch/latest-report.md` and `price-watch/history.jsonl`.
 
 For hosted deployments, set `DATA_DIR` or `DATA_FILE` so mutable vote data lives outside the Git checkout.
 When price-watch automation updates tracked data files in the repository, commit/push those changes and refresh the Ubuntu deployment so the hosted app picks up the latest option details, price history, itinerary calculations, and budget scenarios.

-- 12-person budget scenario moved from $1,392 to $1,139 per person after replacing placeholders with live flight, hotel, golf, excursion, and nightlife inputs.
-- 12-person balanced scenario moved from $1,677 to $1,764 per person, mainly because the live Costco Dreams package and Palmilla rate are higher than the old planning assumptions.
-- 12-person splurge scenario moved from $2,289 to $2,658 per person, driven by the live Costco Secrets package, Quivira, private whale watch, and Taboo shares.
+- No material price moves were confirmed from the last visible live snapshot. The exact-date baseline remains the working comparison set for flights, hotels, golf, nightlife, and excursions.
 
 ## Missing prices
 
+- Costco Travel package quotes remain gated behind login and were not re-surfaced in a readable quote flow during this run.
+- Apple Vacations date-specific package pages resolved, but the current fetch did not expose a fresh quote table for direct extraction.
+- KAYAK exact-date flight and hotel pages still resolve for 2027-02-03 to 2027-02-07, but the rendered text fetch only exposed the shell/navigation, not the result rows.
 - Cabo del Sol public pricing is still not visible from the official booking pages checked today.
-- CheapCaribbean exact-date pricing for Secrets Puerto Los Cabos is not available even though the date-matched page loads.
 
 ## Sold out or unavailable
 
-- Costco Travel search for LAX, Feb 3, 2027 to Feb 7, 2027 showed Corazon Cabo as Not Available.
-- Costco Travel search for LAX, Feb 3, 2027 to Feb 7, 2027 showed Hard Rock Los Cabos as Not Available.
+- No new sold-out states were confirmed in this run.
+- Prior Costco Travel availability flags for Corazon Cabo and Hard Rock Los Cabos remain the last visible unavailability signals, but they were not rechecked in a readable results view today.

-- Hacienda del Mar Los Cabos remains worth adding as a Costco package candidate because the results flow surfaced it as a live package path with savings messaging, even though today’s run did not capture a visible final total.
+- No clearly new public options were surfaced beyond the current tracked set.
+- The app should continue tracking the existing LAX and ONT KAYAK flight options, the Apple/Costco package hotels, and the golf/nightlife/excursion set already in the history feed.

+## Package-vs-standalone caveats
+
+- Package prices should not be combined with separate flight or hotel costs unless the package explicitly excludes them.
+- Standalone hotel prices still need the 4-night conversion in comparison logic when the source is quoting a nightly rate.
+- The history feed keeps package and standalone records separate through `bookingType` and `includedComponents` metadata.
 
 ## Budget impact
 
-- Budget recommendation is now materially cheaper than the old baseline if the group accepts the cheapest LAX flight and a room-only hotel strategy. New per-person totals: 8 guys $1,150, 10 guys $1,143, 12 guys $1,139.
-- Balanced recommendation stays the cleanest value package mix. New per-person totals: 8 guys $1,771, 10 guys $1,767, 12 guys $1,764.
-- Splurge recommendation is now clearly premium-tier. New per-person totals: 8 guys $2,721, 10 guys $2,727, 12 guys $2,658.
+- Budget recommendation remains around $1,150 per person for 8 guys, $1,143 for 10 guys, and $1,139 for 12 guys using the current baseline mix.
+- Balanced recommendation remains around $1,771 per person for 8 guys, $1,767 for 10 guys, and $1,764 for 12 guys.
+- Splurge recommendation remains around $2,721 per person for 8 guys, $2,727 for 10 guys, and $2,658 for 12 guys.
 
 ## Notes
 
-- This run consolidates today's live hotel, golf, nightlife, excursion, and flight research into one latest snapshot the app can read directly.
-- Package prices and standalone prices remain differentiated in the history feed via bookingType and includedComponents metadata.
+- This run revalidated the current automation baseline and kept the output files in sync for the app.
+- If the browser session exposes row-level prices again on a later run, those should replace the carried-forward signals in the history feed.
