# Draft owed milestone summaries across every project (every 10 minutes)

`POST /cron/milestone-summaries`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.apphandoff.com/api`
- URL: `https://api.apphandoff.com/api/cron/milestone-summaries`
- Auth: none required

HO-15533. Picks milestones whose summary_stale_at is older than 60 s, not done or dropped, not merged, not a failure younger than 30 minutes and not under a live draft lease, oldest stamp first, at most 5 per project and 40 per run, and runs the same summary refresh as the on-read scheduler, 3 at a time. Each refresh takes the row's draft lease (summary_draft_claimed_at, 2 minutes) before any model call, so another machine, an overlapping run or a board read never pays twice for one draft. No refresh starts after 30 s; the run stops after 5 consecutive model failures. ok is false only when the pick read fails. Protected by CRON_SECRET via the x-cron-secret header. Scheduled by the milestone-summaries stage of the embedding-drain schedule in .slipstream.json.
