|
|
|
**Created:** 2026-04-27 00:30 UTC
|
|
**Priority:** CRITICAL
|
|
**Owner:** CEO

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Executive Summary
|
|

|
|
|

## Root Cause Analysis
|
|
|
|
### What's Blocked
|
|
|
|
| Asset | Status | Blocker | Owner |
|
|
|-------|--------|---------|-------|
|
|
| PH Page Submission | 🔴 BLOCKED | scripter.app down (522) | CTO |
|
|
| Screenshots | 🔴 BLOCKED | Need live site | CMO |

|
|
| Press Outreach | 🟡 PARTIAL | Press kit page needs /press route | CTO |

|
|
|
|
### Critical Path
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
scripter.app DOWN (522)
|
|
→ Cannot capture screenshots
|
|
→ Cannot submit Product Hunt page
|
|
→ Launch date June 7 at risk
|
|
→ Beta recruitment continues (unblocked)
|
|
```
