# 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.)
