San Antonio 2600 — Conflict: the national 2600.com directory lists San Antonio at PH3AR/Geekdom, 6 PM; the old local site tx2600.com says meetings stopped after Bunsen Burger closed and points to DC210. Next would be Fri Nov 6 if active — confirm before going.
Military Veterans for Christ (San Antonio) — Conflict: the page gives the 1st-Wednesday cadence (which would be Nov 4); a search snippet says there is no November meeting and the next is Dec 2. Confirm before going.
AI Cyber Alliance — Austin — Conflict: ai-cyber-alliance.org lists the Nov 10 venue as ACC Rio Grande, but the Luma event page says "Location: TBC". Luma page also labels the time "CDT"; 6 PM on Nov 10 is CST (Luma start 00:00 UTC Nov 11 = 6 PM CST). Opened Luma event, the Oct 13 Luma event and the site, checked Oct 22.
Austin AI Security Enthusiasts — Conflict: the Meetup listing says Wed Nov 18, 4:30–6:30 PM at The Brewtorium, but the event description says "Wednesday, November 11, 2026, 4:30–6:30 PM CST, Where: TBD". Opened the group events page and the event page, checked Oct 22. The Oct 22 browser-pass list card also shows Wed Nov 18, 4:30 PM CST; the description conflict remains.
Cloud Security Alliance — Austin Chapter — No November date posted (last event Wed Oct 21, 4:30–6:30 PM, Eventbrite — ended). Conflict: austininfosecfounders.com and the ATX Cyber Alliance Meetup recurrence say "last Thursday", but the Oct 21 event was a Wednesday. Also covered inside the Austin infosec calendar item. Opened chapter page, Eventbrite (Oct 21 and Jul 30 events) and ATX Cyber Alliance Meetup, checked Oct 22.
OWASP GenAI Security Project — Monthly Open Meeting — Nov 11 date computed from the "second Wednesday, 9:00 AM PST" rule on the page, not from a posted Nov event. Conflict: page header says monthly, but the listed recent recordings (Jul 30, Aug 13, Aug 27 2025) are biweekly. Opened page, checked Oct 22.
Austin Deep Learning (monthly journal club) — Conflict: aievents.now (its entry was verified Aug 15) lists a Nov 3, 7–9 PM journal club. The Meetup events list (opened Oct 22) shows nothing after Aug 4, 2026. Treat it as paused until Meetup posts a date.

Gaps & blocked sources (by town)
San Antonio / national (from the first pass)
Corporate Gray: last virtual fair found was Oct 15 (past); no November date found.
Booz Allen, GDIT, Peraton, NSA, CISA: no public November hiring/virtual career events found (CISA only has learning events, e.g. CISA Live! Oct 26).
DIA recruitment-events page lists only out-of-state November events (Fort Bragg Nov 5, Ft. Belvoir Nov 12, Nov 18–19) — not added.
ISC2 virtual career fairs are a members-only benefit; no dates visible publicly.
JBSA-FSH Nov 4 hiring event comes only from a Texas DPS recruiter list; the JBSA M&FRC Oct–Nov calendar (read Oct 22) doesn't show it.
NMIA (nmia.org returned HTTP 500) and AFIO (no San Antonio chapter found on afio.com) — no local intel-association listing could be confirmed.
No dedicated San Antonio edge-AI / embedded / robotics adult meetup found; 10BitWorks (electronics bench) and ACM SA are the closest.
CyberTexas Foundation shows only youth summer camps; DC210 sites won't load (DCG-SATX on Luma appears to be the active DEF CON group).
HRWY Austin, San Antonio, San Marcos and Round Rock are now confirmed on TWC pages; Fort Hood/Killeen and Corpus Christi dates still rest on TPWD/Texas DPS recruiter calendars (local board pages show 2025 details).
UTSA Career Center calendar (careercenter.utsa.edu): nothing in the Oct 22–Nov 30 window.
Groups expansion (thin spots)
Hacker: no Hack The Box/TryHackMe meetup in SA or Austin (nearest HTB meetup is McAllen); no public SDR, purple-team or adult CTF-team meetups found (UTCTF is a UT student CTF). CSA Austin is already covered in the Austin infosec calendar item; CSA San Antonio's chapter page exists but lists no events (see AI security gaps).
Robotics: SATX Robotix (Port San Antonio) last met July 2022; Adam Smith Robotics Society (Austin) is a dormant book club; no ROS-specific or San Antonio drone-pilot group found.
ML/AI: Austin Deep Learning shows no Meetup event after Aug 4 (aievents.now claims Nov 3, see the conflict item), PyData Austin inactive since 2019-era, GDG Austin's last event was June 2026; no Hugging Face/Kaggle local groups found.
Outdoors: Veterans Expeditions (VETX) is Colorado-based with no Texas chapter; Texas Veterans Outdoors is Fort Worth-based; Central Texas Mountaineers became the Texas Climbers Coalition. Nothing found for Fredericksburg/Kerrville hiking clubs.
Veterans: Team Rubicon has no local unit calendar readable; Bunker Labs SA/Austin chapters not confirmed active (programming moved to IVMF's virtual Military Founders Lab); Central Texas MOAA meets in Killeen (not added).
Christian missions: no FaithTech San Antonio; Code for the Kingdom has had no event since 2021; Indigitous #HACK has no Texas host listed; CBMC San Antonio found only on LinkedIn (not added); no Perspectives class found for Austin in Fall 2026 (Hope Chapel's last listed was 2025).
AI security groups (Task 5)
Few dedicated AI-security groups exist locally: in Austin, AI Security Engineers (already listed), AI Cyber Alliance, the new Austin AI Security Enthusiasts and CSA Austin. San Antonio has no dedicated AI-security/LLM-security meetup; the closest are ISACA SA's AI-governance sessions, OWASP SA, DCG-SATX (all already listed) and one-off AWS User Group talks (Oct 1 AI pentesting, past).
CSA San Antonio Chapter: chapter page exists (cloudsecurityalliance.org/chapters/san-antonio-chapter) but lists no events and no AI sessions — not added.
Austin AI Security Meetup Group (Meetup, 15 members): last event Jan 27, 2026 — dormant, not added. 'AI Safety Austin' as such was not found; Austin AI Alignment runs UT-student-only fellowships (not a public meetup) — not added.

No AI-red-team or adversarial-ML-specific meetup found in either city.
Calendar-source sweep (Task 6)
Hill Country calendars (Boerne, Fredericksburg, Dripping Springs, Kerrville chambers/visitor bureaus/libraries and AllEvents) had no in-focus November items: mostly wine, holiday, market and book-club events. The only additions there are TPWD state-park hikes (Enchanted Rock, near Fredericksburg). Kerrville library hosts a monthly Workforce Solutions Alamo table (Nov 19, 3–5 PM) aimed at ages 16–24 (not added).
ClearedJobs.Net November fairs are out of state (Herndon VA Oct 29, Hanover MD Nov 12), so none were added. Missio Nexus November items are a mission-org-staff-only roundtable and an Alberta workshop (not added). FaithTech lists no Texas events in November.
Full Lifecycle AI Software Teams Meetup (monthly, 701 Brazos; aievents.now says Nov 24): its Luma page returns 404, so it is not added until confirmed. Consciousness and Intelligence 2026 (UT, Nov 5–6) and AI x Education Austin (Nov 18) were seen only on aievents.now and are off-focus, so they were not added.
Hiring Our Heroes: no Texas in-person HOH events Oct 22–Nov 30 on events.hiringourheroes.org (browser pass Oct 22). The Talent Invitational: Software Engineering and Cybersecurity at Visa is Dec 10, outside the window (not added). The listing page is JS-only from the research environment (WebFetch returned only the header), so per-event URLs and cost could not be confirmed.
Bexar County's calendar renders only the current month from the research environment. The Oct 24 veterans outreach event at St. Philip's College was seen there but is outside the November focus and not added.
Browser-only sources (10times, Meetup/Luma city search, SAPL/APL/LibCal library calendars, UTSA/Texas State/TAMUSA calendars, Capital Factory, SA Current, Visit SA/Austin, Hiring Our Heroes, Corporate Gray, JBSA, WS Rural Capital Area) were not swept by script. See the Sources section.

Kerrville / Kerr County: Schreiner University + WSA Career Connection Job Fair was Sep 30 (past); Schreiner career calendar shows nothing for Nov. WSA Kerrville center (2100 Memorial Blvd) hosts periodic job fairs (last posted Jan 7, 2026); none posted for Oct–Nov. Kerrville VA 'job fair' exists only as an undated Facebook event; the VA hiring-event page returned 404. No tech meetup or makerspace found; the Hill Country Amateur Radio Club (1st Thursdays) is the only tech-adjacent group.
Dripping Springs
Dripping Springs / Hays County: the weekly Dripping Springs AI Collective, plus the Texas Climbers Coalition's Limestoner at Reimers Ranch (Nov 14). No job fair in the window; the Patriots' Hall veteran Sitrep meetup was Aug 22 (past).

BSides Austin is 'on hold' (bsidesaustin.com). AFCEA Central Texas: no Nov event on the AFCEA calendar (last were Jun 29, Jul 30).
