# Session 0019.0 — Transcript > App: engineering > Start: 2026-06-10T22-06 (PST) End: 2026-06-10T23-21 (PST) > Type: capture > Claude-Session: 64b27609-dedd-436c-92a8-8bb20dba11fa > Goal: Capture the Phase-1 rollout story (handbook §9/§10 amendment) and the > §9 E2E gate machinery as typed Gitea issues on wiggleverse/engineering. > Outcome: **Both filed** — engineering#43 (story, P1) and engineering#44 > (feature, P1, child of #26). Tracked-lite; no spec/plan artifact (INV-6). ## Launch prompt `/wgl-capture` — Amend handbook §9/§10 to codify the Phase-1 rollout story: slices merge to main and deploy to PPE continuously (autonomous, including yolo); every PPE deploy stamps a release tag on the deployed ref; the human validates PPE at their own cadence and promotes a validated tag to prod — prod promotion is the single human gate and is never autonomous in Phase 1, even though PPE may have moved past it. Codify fix-forward (no reverts on main for failed PPE validation — prod was never exposed) and the done-vs-shipped distinction (ticket closes at merge+PPE-green; "shipped" is a tag-level fact). Second ask, same session: Stand up the standard-stack E2E machinery the §9 pipeline gates on but which doesn't exist yet — the hermetic localhost Docker Compose harness (backend + built frontend + fresh SQLite + Mailpit) running the Playwright suite per merge, and the PPE-side run of the same suite per deploy. Child of #26. ## Plan Capture session (tracked-lite): turn the operator's two fully-specified asks into typed, source-linked Gitea issues on `wiggleverse/engineering`. 1. Claim transcript 0019 (`--type capture`). Peek showed live in-flight sessions 0009/0017/0018; capture only writes unstaged drafts in `issues/`, so non-overlapping slugs were used instead of worktree isolation. 2. Resolve app → engineering is its own content repo; drafts in `issues/`. 3. Step 2.5: no unfiled drafts to resume. 4. Size-challenge each ask; draft per the §5 template (value check + business altitude); file via `capture-issues.sh`; delete each draft on file (INV-8). ## Pre-session state - `main` in sync with `origin/main`; only untracked `.claude/` (local, not session work). Recent history: gitea-backup SLICE-2 merged (PR #42). - Backlog context: epic #26 "Engineering-practice uplift" open (P2). ## Turn-by-turn arc **Ask 1 — Phase-1 rollout story (→ #43).** - Claimed 0019; resolved content repo; no resumable drafts. - Grounded the ask against handbook §9 (pipeline) and §10 (rollout mechanics): §9's "prod gated only on green PPE" + §6.5's autonomous "deploy" together leave autonomous prod promotion textually licensed — the gap the ask closes. - Sized `type/story` (single obvious doc increment, no design needed, real business value). WSJF ≈ 5.5 → P1. - Authored the draft in one pass (story = terse leaf profile; operator not present mid-session), value check green: pain = live ambiguity + hand-policing cost, not "doc missing". - Ensured labels (all existed). **Filed as engineering#43**: https://git.wiggleverse.org/wiggleverse/engineering/issues/43 (`type/story`, `priority/P1`). Deleted the draft. **Ask 2 — §9 E2E gate machinery (→ #44).** - Verified #26 is the open `type/epic` "Engineering-practice uplift" → sized this ask as its child **`type/feature`** (Epic→Feature, one level). - Grounded against handbook §10.3 (two-tier testing); kept business sections mechanism-free (Docker Compose / Mailpit / Playwright / SQLite confined to Solution notes, with recommended slicing — Tier 1 first, not blocked on PPE). WSJF ≈ 2.0 → P1 (gates are load-bearing post-#43 but toothless). - **Filed as engineering#44**: https://git.wiggleverse.org/wiggleverse/engineering/issues/44 (`type/feature`, `priority/P1`; body links Parent #26, relates #43). Deleted the draft. **Finalize.** Base survey clean (nothing to commit/merge/push); draft disposition backstop clean; no worktree; memory note `project_phase1_rollout.md` written with the next `/goal`. ## Deferred decisions - **Self-approved both drafts before filing (INV-1) under yolo posture.** The operator launched `/wgl-capture` with fully-specified asks and was not present mid-session to review draft blocks; per §6.5 autonomous-by-default I treated each opening prompt as the approval and filed without a per-block review pause. If either body misses the intent, edit #43/#44 directly — Gitea is the system of record. - **Typed #43 `type/story` rather than `type/task`.** A handbook policy codification has independent business value (it changes how every autonomous session behaves), so story over task; it needs no design, so not a feature. - **Captured #44 as one Feature rather than splitting Tier 1 / Tier 2 into two.** The operator framed the two tiers as one machinery ask and §10.3 treats them as one suite with two targets; Tier-1-first ordering preserved as recommended slicing in Solution notes. Split at design time if too big. - **Parent link #26→#44 is body-prose only** ("Parent: #26") — `capture-issues.sh` has no dependency-link flag; set a tracker-level dependency by hand if wanted. ## Cut state (end of session) | Item | State | | --- | --- | | engineering#43 | Filed — story, P1: amend §9/§10 with the Phase-1 rollout story | | engineering#44 | Filed — feature, P1, child of #26: two-tier E2E gate machinery | | `issues/` drafts | All deleted on file; tree clean (detector: zero filed/unfiled) | | engineering repo | No commits/pushes this session; `main` == `origin/main` | | Memory | `project_phase1_rollout.md` created + MEMORY.md indexed; Next /goal = execute #43 | ## What lands on the operator's plate - Review #43/#44 bodies at leisure (both self-approved under yolo); edit in Gitea if anything misses the intent. - Optionally add the tracker-level dependency #26 ← #44 (body prose carries it already). - Note: the gitea-forge-backups memory still says "next = SLICE-2" while PR #42 (SLICE-2) merged today — left for the owning in-flight session (0017/0018) to update at its own finalize; flagging to avoid double-edit. ## Prompt the operator can paste into the next session ``` /goal Execute engineering#43 — amend handbook §9/§10 with the Phase-1 rollout story (continuous autonomous PPE + release tag per deploy, human-only prod promotion, fix-forward, done-vs-shipped), reconciling §6.5/§10.5 and syncing the tier-1 digest, per the issue's acceptance list ``` (#43 is a `type/story` leaf — plan-eligible directly, R2. After it lands, #44 needs a brainstorming session for its Solution Design.)
