## Launch prompt

Opened as a `/goal feedback` follow-on in the dev-claude-plugin repo ("go for
it"), which resumed the stored Patchwatch next-goal. Claimed flotilla-core/0003 to
build **Patchwatch Phase 2 sub-project A (Capture)** — but orientation found A was
already shipped, and the session became the **first-run sweep** + supporting
flotilla-core work.

## Pre-state

- Patchwatch Phase 2 design (`flotilla-core/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-07-patchwatch-phase2-design.md`)
  build order A → B → sweep → C. Plugin memory said "next = build A", stale.
- flotilla-core on clean main 0.10.1; rfc-app deployments (ohm-rfc-app prod,
  rfc-app-ppe, wiggle-snip) registered; OHM radar (Cloud Run job + 6h scheduler)
  hand-built.

## The arc (including wrong turns)

1. **Orientation found A + B already done.** flotilla-core PR #8 had shipped capture
   (`gitea.py` issue API, `patchwatch.py` reconcile, `patchwatch sync` verb, SPEC §12.5,
   16/16 tests); plugin v0.21.0 had shipped B (`patchwatch-notice` hook + `wgl-remediate`).
   Corrected the stale memory. Real frontier = the **sweep**. (Operator chose "Full
   sweep, PPE-gated".)

2. **Sweep prereq snags, surfaced live (the design anticipated the first sweep would
   shake these out):**
   - **ADC stale** → Secret Manager unreadable → pin 404 + token unresolved. Operator
     ran `gcloud auth application-default login`. Fixed; radar then surfaced the real
     app-layer findings (vitest, tqdm, idna).
   - **Deploy `GITEA_BOT_TOKEN` lacks `issues:write`** (403). Capture had only ever run
     against a faked API, so the real-token gap was new. → shipped **flotilla-core 0.11.0**
     (PR #9): a dedicated least-privilege `GITEA_ISSUE_TOKEN` (`webhooks.resolve_issue_token`,
     prefers it, falls back to `GITEA_BOT_TOKEN`), SPEC §12.5 + CHANGELOG, VERSION+pyproject
     aligned, 479 tests green. Provisioned the shared token `wiggleverse-ohm/wgl-gitea-issue-token`
     (value from Keychain `wgl-gitea-issues-readwrite-token`), bound on both rfc-app deps.
   - **Labels didn't exist on the target repo** (422 soft-fail) → unlabeled issues break
     dedup/surfacing; creating labels needs repo-admin the least-priv token lacks. Operator
     created `patchwatch`; I labeled #36–#40; filed **flotilla-core #10** for deploy-time +
     retroactive label provisioning. Operator built it in a **separate flotilla-core session**
     (0.12.0/0.12.1) — full lane/sev label set now exists on rfc-app.

3. **Capture sweep complete & validated.** `patchwatch sync` filed issues **#36 vitest
   3.2.6→4.1.0 (crit), #37 tqdm→4.11.2 (high), #38 idna→3.15, #39 tqdm→4.66.3, #40 tqdm→4.11.2**
   on `ben.stull/rfc-app`; labeled `patchwatch`; affected=[rfc-app-ppe, ohm-rfc-app]; dedup
   proven (re-sync prod → `opened=0 updated=5`).

4. **Remediation parked at a depth decision.** rfc-app deployment pin (0.46.1) lags main
   (0.51.1) by ~5 versions → a pin-bump deploy ships a catch-up release, not a surgical patch.
   vitest is a dev-only devDep (3→4 major, ~no prod risk); tqdm/idna are transitive (no lock,
   loose `>=` in `backend/requirements.txt`, robust fix = floor pins). Offered depth options;
   operator deferred and moved on.

5. **Phase 2C handed off.** Characterized the hand-built OHM radar (Cloud Run job
   `patchwatch-radar` img `…/patchwatch/radar:1.7.0` SA `patchwatch-runner` + Cloud Scheduler
   `patchwatch-radar-6h` + alert) and handed the operator a prepared prompt to generalize it
   into a flotilla-provisioned per-deployment component (its own session; provisioning is
   operator-run, §6/§8.5).

## Cut state (what shipped / what's open)

- **Shipped:** flotilla-core 0.11.0 (dedicated issue token; my PR #9); shared issue token
  provisioned + bound; capture sweep filed & validated (#36–#40). flotilla-core 0.12.0/0.12.1
  (label provisioning) shipped in the operator's parallel session. flotilla-core #10 filed
  (now built).
- **Open / parked:** rfc-app remediation of #36–#40 (depth decision — see memory); Phase 2C
  (in its own session); wiggle-snip h11 (needs `GITEA_ISSUE_TOKEN` bound — wiggle-snip has no
  secrets bound).
- flotilla-core on clean main; no uncommitted/unpushed work; no open PRs of mine.

## Deferred decisions

- Scoped the capture sweep to the app layers (node-app/py-app), **not** the flotilla/pip
  toolchain findings (5 pip advisories that route to `wiggleverse/flotilla-core` itself) —
  a separate concern from the rfc-app sweep. Surfaced to the operator at closeout.

## Next session

```
/goal Remediate the rfc-app Patchwatch findings #36–#40 (vitest 4.1.0, tqdm>=4.66.3, idna>=3.15) — pick the depth (repo-fixes+PPE vs full PPE→prod catch-up; the pin lags main by ~5 versions), per the design and the flotilla-core/0003 memory note
```

Also open: Phase 2C (its own flotilla session) and wiggle-snip h11 (bind its
`GITEA_ISSUE_TOKEN` first). Plugin-side: the new `worktree-edit-guard` PreToolUse hook
(v0.23.0) needs a plugin re-install to go live.
