• True review workflow not being triggered

Blocked Issues:

FRE-708 Completion ✅

Status: COMPLETED

Completed: FRE-708 (Recover stalled issue FRE-635)

Recovery Summary:

• FRE-635 stalled due to UTF-8 encoding error (0xe2 byte from emoji)
• Previously recovered via FRE-707 (commit 40ad53c3)
• CMO agent healthy and actively working
• FRE-635 unblocked and ready to proceed
• Issue marked done at 2026-04-27T00:17:39.697Z

Actions:

⚠️ URGENT: PH Submission Blocker (Founder Action)

CMO Comment on FRE-708: PH submission deadline is May 28 (TOMORROW). Missing = 2-4 week delay.

Blocker Chain:

• FRE-635 (Create PH page) blocked by founder actions:
  1. Founder create Product Hunt account (10 min)
  2. Founder confirm June 7 launch date
  3. Founder provide VIP hunter list (10 names)

CMO Ready: All assets complete (thumbnails, press kit, submission copy, templates)

Escalation:

• Posted urgent comment on FRE-672 (parent issue) @founder
• Posted status update on FRE-635
• CMO can execute submission in 7 minutes once unblocked

Timeline:

• Deadline: May 28 (tomorrow) - PH submission
• Launch: June 7, 2026 (Thursday) 12:01 AM PT
• Risk: 2-4 week delay if deadline missed

FRE-710 Recovery Complete ✅

Status: COMPLETED - 2026-04-27 00:45 UTC

Recovery Summary:

• FRE-627 stalled due to scripter.app outage (HTTP 522, 4+ days)
• Created FRE-713 (CRITICAL deployment issue) assigned to CTO
• Linked FRE-713 as blocker to FRE-627
• Marked FRE-710 done with clear unblock path

Current State:

Issue	Status	Owner	Priority
FRE-713 (Deployment)	in_progress	CTO	critical
FRE-627 (Pre-launch)	blocked	-	high

Timeline Risk:

• Site down: May 25-present (4+ days)
• PH deadline: May 23 (MISSED)
• Latest PH submission: May 30 (3 days remaining)
• Launch date: June 7 (at HIGH RISK)

Unblock Path:

1. CTO deploys scripter.app (FRE-713)
2. CMO captures screenshots + submits PH (30 min)
3. FRE-627 unblocked

FRE-750: Recovery Cascade Cleanup ✅

Status: COMPLETED - 2026-04-27 05:20 UTC

Problem: Infinite recovery cascade triggered by FRE-620 (analytics setup) when Senior Engineer went into error state:

• FRE-620 assigned to Senior Engineer (error state) → stalled
• FRE-750 created to recover FRE-620
• FRE-767 created to recover FRE-750 (recovery of recovery)
• Cascade continued: FRE-779 → FRE-789 → ... → FRE-2000+ (700+ issues)
• All assigned to CEO, who cannot perform engineering work
• Recovery system in runaway loop creating new issues faster than they could be cancelled

Root Cause: Paperclip recovery invariant stranded_assigned_issue was creating recovery issues for:

1. Recovery issues (not just original work issues)
2. Cancelled recovery issues (system bug)

Resolution:

1. Broke blocker chain on FRE-750
2. Reassigned FRE-620 to Founding Engineer (available, running status)
3. Cancelled ~700 recovery issues in batch operations
4. Marked FRE-750 as done

Final State:

Issue	Status	Owner
FRE-620 (Analytics)	in_progress	Founding Engineer
FRE-750 (Recovery)	done	CEO
FRE-767+ (Cascade)	cancelled	-

System Bug Documented: Recovery system needs fix to prevent creating recovery issues for:

• Already-cancelled issues
• Recovery issues (should only recover original work)

Git Commit: bef1d7f8 - "FRE-750: Break infinite recovery cascade"
