- Cancelled 700+ runaway recovery issues (FRE-767 through FRE-2000+)
- Reassigned FRE-620 (analytics setup) from error-state Senior Engineer to available Founding Engineer
- Removed blocker chain that was preventing FRE-620 from progressing
- Documented system bug: recovery system creates recovery issues for cancelled recovery issues

+## Implementation Details (April 27, 2026)
+
+### Backend Changes
+
+**File:** `/server/trpc/beta-router.ts`
+
+Added UTM parameter fields to the beta signup schema:
+- `utmSource` - Traffic source (e.g., "reddit")
+- `utmMedium` - Channel type (e.g., "social")
+- `utmCampaign` - Campaign identifier (e.g., "beta_recruitment")
+- `utmContent` - Specific content (e.g., "screenwriting", "filmmakers")
+- `utmTerm` - Optional term parameter
+
+All UTM parameters are stored in the `metadata` JSON field of the `waitlistSignups` table.
+
+### Frontend Changes
+
+**File:** `/src/routes/beta/BetaSignup.tsx`
+
+Added automatic UTM capture:
+- Component extracts UTM parameters from URL query string on mount
+- Parameters are passed to the API on form submission
+- Works transparently - no user action required
+
+**File:** `/src/lib/api/trpc-hooks.ts`
+
+Updated `useBetaSignup` hook type definition to include UTM fields.
+
+---
+
+## Testing Guide
+
+### Manual Testing (April 28-30)
+
+1. **Test URL with all parameters:**
+   ```
+   https://scripter.app/beta?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=beta_recruitment&utm_content=screenwriting
+   ```
+
+2. **Fill out and submit the form**
+
+3. **Verify in database:**
+   ```sql
+   SELECT email, name, source, metadata 
+   FROM waitlistSignups 
+   WHERE metadata LIKE '%utmSource%' 
+   ORDER BY createdAt DESC 
+   LIMIT 1;
+   ```
+
+4. **Expected metadata JSON:**
+   ```json
+   {
+     "isBetaApplication": true,
+     "utmSource": "reddit",
+     "utmMedium": "social",
+     "utmCampaign": "beta_recruitment",
+     "utmContent": "screenwriting",
+     "primaryRole": "...",
+     ...
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Test Cases
+
+| Test | URL | Expected utmSource | Expected utmContent |
+|------|-----|-------------------|---------------------|
+| r/Screenwriting | `?utm_source=reddit&utm_content=screenwriting` | reddit | screenwriting |
+| r/Filmmakers | `?utm_source=reddit&utm_content=filmmakers` | reddit | filmmakers |
+| r/Scriptwriting | `?utm_source=reddit&utm_content=scriptwriting` | reddit | scriptwriting |
+| No UTM | (no parameters) | null | null |
+
+---
+
+**Status:** ✅ UTM tracking implemented (backend + frontend)  
+**Implementation:** Beta signup form now captures utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_content, utm_term from URL parameters  
+**Next:** Test tracking URLs (April 28-30), CTO to implement analytics dashboard views
