Session 0019.0 — Transcript

App: engineering Start: 2026-06-10T22-06 (PST) Type: capture Claude-Session: 64b27609-dedd-436c-92a8-8bb20dba11fa Status: PLACEHOLDER — claimed at session start; finalized at session end.

This file reserves session ID 0019 for engineering. The driver replaces this body with the full transcript and renames the file to its final SESSION-0019.0-TRANSCRIPT-2026-06-10T22-06--.md form at session end.

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).

Plan

Capture session (tracked-lite): turn the operator's fully-specified ask into one typed, source-linked Gitea issue 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 a non-overlapping slug was 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: one ask, a single obvious doc increment needing no design → type/story, priority/P1 (WSJF ≈ 5.5 — the §6.5ק9 ambiguity is live risk for autonomous sessions).
5. Draft issues/phase-1-rollout-story.md (full §5 template, value check applied), file via capture-issues.sh, delete the draft (INV-8).

Turn-by-turn arc

• 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.
• 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: wiggleverse/engineering#43 (type/story, priority/P1).
• Deleted the filed draft; issues/ clean, no stragglers.

Deferred decisions

• Self-approved the draft before filing (INV-1) under yolo posture. The operator launched /wgl-capture with a fully-specified ask and was not present mid-session to review the draft blocks; per §6.5 autonomous-by-default ("create/approve … without pausing") I treated the opening prompt as the approval and filed engineering#43 without a per-block review pause. If the issue body misses the intent, edit #43 directly — Gitea is the system of record.
• Typed it type/story rather than type/task. Judgment call: 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.
