Task Analysis Flow — Awaiting-Go Queue + +### 7.1 Architecture + +The `executor-autonomous` cron job (ID `174de8444e1c`, schedule `*/30 9-18 * * 1-5`, later `*/30 * * * *`) ran in four phases each tick: + +- **Phase 0** — Read context (status.md, TP, focus score) +- **Phase A** — Check active PRs (CI status, reviewer feedback) +- **Phase B** — Spawn worker for next approved task if slot available (max 2 concurrent) +- **Phase C** — Analyze pending tasks from the local Asana snapshot: read task details, research the codebase, produce root-cause + fix analysis, classify complexity/feasibility, then assign `awaiting_go` (needs Alex's `go {gid}` command) or `skip` with reason +- **Phase D** — Update `~/Developer/personal-os/briefs/executor-queue.md` + commit to Obsidian + +Analysis output was delivered to Discord `#executor` channel automatically by the Hermes cron delivery system (not posted by the agent itself). Each tick's full output is also preserved in `~/.hermes/cron/output/174de8444e1c/`. + +The job ran from **2026-04-28** through **2026-04-30** (96 ticks total before AFK + subsequent pausing). It processed ~230 tasks total — analysing each against the live codebase via `gh` CLI, local repo reads, and the Asana snapshot DB. + +### 7.2 What was analysed and sent to Discord + +Each task that passed Phase C and entered `awaiting_go` had the following disclosed on Discord: + +- Asana task GID and URL (`https://app.asana.com/0/0/{gid}`) +- Task name (bug title) +- Root cause analysis (specific file paths, line numbers, function names, code logic) +- Exact fix approach (what to change and where) +- Files to modify (explicit paths) +- Complexity and feasibility estimate +- Risk assessment + +This is substantially more detail than the execution threads — the analysis phase included line-level codebase findings even for tasks that were never executed. + +**Example from tick #3

`MainMenu.swift` +> — Files: `macOS/LocalPackages/AppKitExtensions/Sources/AppKitExtensions/NSEventExtension.swift`, `macOS/DuckDuckGo/Menus/MainMenu.swift` +> — Complexity: trivial · Feasibility:

Risk: low + +> **Task 4 — Universal Links on macOS 15** (`go 1208684501456999`): +> — Root cause: macOS 15 WebKit opens https:// links in associated apps by default. iOS has fix:

But the combination of task GID → bug title → exact file + line → fix approach for unpatched UX bugs was all in Discord. + +The 9 tasks still in `awaiting_go` at shutdown are the most sensitive items in this category — they represent unexecuted analysis of real bugs that were disclosed in detail but never fixed. + +--- + +## 8. Summary of Control Failure The autonomous executor ran with a "lethal trifecta" gate: once an internal data MCP (Asana) is called in a session, external HTTP is blocked. This was designed to prevent exfiltration *outward*. It did not prevent *writes inward* to Asana.
