# Weekly Review — Week of 2026-05-25
## ✅ Moved Forward
**iOS Toggle Onboarding Project — CLOSED**
- [iOS: Introduce a new screen that allows usage of the toggle with Search or Duck.ai set as the default toggle state](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1213320237636425) completed May 26 with a full project wrap-up comment summarizing the A/B/N experiment results.
- [Postmortem: iOS Toggle screen](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1213320327587346) completed May 26. Costas confirmed alignment to close the project after shipping winning treatment as new control.
**Discord Incident Postmortem — CLOSED**
- [Incident Postmortem: AI Agent use via likely external Discord service](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214996544314182) completed May 28. Led the postmortem, posted action items, and got thank-yous from Jeanna and Jonathan Jackson ("thorough work").
- [Full Analysis](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214900901154134) completed May 28, including GDPR erasure request to Discord (#65440436).
**New project kicked off + PRs in flight**
- [iOS Address onboarding conflicts with unified input and ship AI onboarding winner](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214592943696234) — kick-off completed May 26 after feedback rounds with Alessandro and Pete.
- 3 implementation tasks created and progressing:
- [Hide Free plan • Upgrade in onboarding](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158952) — PR up
- [Ship AI onboarding winner (Treatment B)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955) — PR up, active scoping discussion
- [Hide "stop chat" button in the input box](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158954) — PR up
**PR merged**
- [PR: Simplify tab access in TabBarViewController (apple-browsers)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215059168411571) — closed May 28.
**Rotation completed**
- [macOS Weekly Maintenance DRI - Alex](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214129023477449) — completed May 22.
**Tech Designs**
- No TD authored, approved, or LGTM'd this week. Several active in the workspace (VPN leak detection, monthly pixels, OS support pixels, Wallet Pass links) — Alex is observer, no review actions taken.
---
## 🔄 Didn't Move
Stalled items (no activity in 7+ days, not parked in `do_later`/`quick_wins`):
- [PR: Make our macOS app Monterrey-only](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916) — due May 27 (2 days overdue), no activity since pickup. Likely needs a push.
- [Follow-up: add support of Inline Text Images to TypingTextAnimation](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214040804696193) — due May 28, no activity. Onboarding-adjacent, may be dependent on current project.
- [Remove or re-evaluate Warn Before Quit pixels](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1212808567112832) — Nastia pinged May 26 asking if pixels still needed. No reply yet.
- [DRI <> Project Advisor async for Demo tracker blocking after chat in onboarding](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1213551072611261) — Alessandro created the task on Alex's behalf during OOO; Alex acknowledged on May 29 but no async update yet posted.
- [security Full Analysis](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214962161931389) — last touched May 20. Likely the inbox copy of the postmortem analysis; verify if it can be closed.
- Older planning-section bugs (Tab preview stuck, Cmd+Shift+R hard refresh, etc.) — long-tail backlog, no movement, no urgency signal.
**Likely cause:** energy this week was concentrated on closing out the toggle experiment + Discord postmortem + kicking off the new onboarding conflicts project. Stalled items are mostly low-priority follow-ups or items needing a 5-minute close.

## 🔗 Open Loops Carrying Forward
**Ship Reviews in progress** — None open. Last Ship Review ([Demo tracker blocking after chat](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214147157456478)) completed May 20. Treatment B ship is the upcoming candidate but needs the [iPhone-only / returning-users scoping question](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955) resolved first.
**Tech Designs awaiting Alex's re-review** — None. Alex authored no TDs this week.
**Delegated tasks overdue (need follow-up):**
- [Login autofill shows empty field in macOS Browser](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1211742725064177) — Deepankar, due Nov/17 2025. Very old; consider closing or de-assigning.
- [assertionFailure when DBP url is opened](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1212305913722018) — Anh Do, due Dec/12 2025. Same.
- [Privacy Triage: iOS Demo tracker blocking](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214965405681675) — Jake Abel, due May 21, 8 days overdue. Project is on hold so low urgency but worth a nudge.
**Incidents without postmortem** — None pending. Discord postmortem closed May 28.
**Active open decisions (Treatment B ship):**
- Scope question — Costas says iPhone-only as planned; Alessandro flagged that shipping Treatment B while demo tracker experiment is still running may not be feasible. Decision needed before PR can ship.
- Returning users — should the new onboarding screen be shown to returning users or only new users? Question posted, no resolution yet.
**Open inbox-section work for next week:**
- [Try Visiting a Site: Background](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214828145455342) — due Jun 1
- [Address Bar Toggle Selection: Animated Assets](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214627423981798) — due Jun 4
- [Persist 'You've got this' dialogue in non-focused state](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158950) — due today (May 29), not yet complete
- [Follow-up with Discord on GDPR request](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215193471130270) — due Jun 15, scheduled from postmortem
- [NA Analysis: iOS Duck.ai Onboarding Tracker Demo Experiment](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215186850972358) — open, monitoring enrollment

## 📅 Next Week Setup
**TP Suggestion:** **[iOS Address onboarding conflicts with unified input and ship AI onboarding winner](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214592943696234)** (already set May 25, due Jun 5).
- Reasoning: this is the active critical-path project. 3 PRs in flight, kick-off complete, scope confirmed. Next week is the ship window — resolve the iPad/returning-users scoping question with Costas + Alessandro, get Treatment B through Ship Review, and merge the supporting PRs (Hide Free plan, Hide stop chat). Treatment B ship is the milestone.
**Rotation:** **[macOS App Maintenance](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215231440099759)** — due Jun 5 (Friday next week). Prep: check the macOS maintenance playbook on Monday, watch for incoming issues in your AOR.
**OOO / coverage watch:**
- **Dominik** (career advisor): AFK today (May 29), AFK Jun 13 (LDX3 conference), AFK Jun 45 (public holiday) → **effectively out for the entire week**. No 1:1 this week unless rescheduled.
- **Heavy EU absence Jun 13** for LDX3 26 in London: Dominik, Lorenzo, Sabrina, Pete, Fernando, Elle. Plan async-first for those days; avoid scheduling reviews from EU folks.
- Costas + Alessandro (project advisors for current TP) — check their AFK status; if either is out during ship week, accelerate decisions before they leave.
- Own AFK: Partly AFK Jun 812 for WWDC 26 → next week is the last full focus week before WWDC.
**1:1 with Dominik:**
- Last 1:1 was May 26 (Tuesday). Next is expected the following Tuesday (Jun 2) — but Dominik is AFK Jun 13. Likely no 1:1 next week; expect Jun 9 or later.
- Agenda items to capture for next 1:1:
- Closed: iOS Toggle project — wrap-up done.
- Active: Onboarding conflicts project — discuss ship readiness for Treatment B and the iPad/returning-users scoping debate.
- Discord incident postmortem closed; flag the O-T project (Keagan mentioned) as a longer-term follow-up.
- WWDC plans (Jun 812 partly AFK).

## 🏆 Wins

2. **Led the Discord incident postmortem with explicit recognition** — [postmortem closed](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214996544314182) with two thank-yous in the thread (Jeanna called the work "thorough"; Jonathan acknowledged concrete follow-ups). Action items captured, GDPR request filed, follow-up scheduled.
3. **Hit the ground running on the new onboarding-conflicts project** — [kick-off](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214592851898713) completed Tuesday, 3 PRs up by Thursday, scope confirmed with reviewers. Strong execution velocity into the ship week.
