## Daily Brief — 2026-06-01
### ✨ Morning
On this day in 1869, Thomas Edison received his very first patent — for an *electrographic vote recorder*. It worked perfectly, and legislators completely refused to use it (they liked filibustering too much). His first lesson in productmarket fit.
💧 Start with a glass of water before opening Slack.
> Today's focus per weekly plan: ship in-flight onboarding subtasks + ramp the TP push before WWDC AFK. New signals since yesterday: 5 task changes, 1 new comment (Sam S on CI suite — has a stable fix PR).
## Plan for Today
1. ⚡ **Merge [PR #5149 — Hide Free plan • Upgrade](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158952)** — ✅ CI / ✅ review. Literally one click. Clears a 4d-overdue TP subtask. (≤2 min)
2. 🔴 **Merge [PR #5173 — Hide stop-chat button](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158954)** — ✅ CI / ✅ review, 3d overdue TP subtask. Same one-click. (≤2 min)
3. 🔴 **Start [Persist 'You've got this' dialogue in non-focused state \[2d\]](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158950)** — due today, 2d estimate, blocks SR parent closing Fri. Begin implementation in the morning block.
4. 🔴 **Fix 🔴 CI on [PR #5145 — Ship AI onboarding winner (Treatment B)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955)** — Alessandro replied May 29 raising a feasibility concern about releasing Treatment B while the tracker-blocker demo experiment is still running. Address his comment + green the CI.
5. 🟠 **[Desktop Browser Feature Owner Survey](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214940335721015)** — 6d overdue, anonymous, 5-min timebox. Knock it out between blocks.
6. 🟠 **Review [PR: Make our macOS app Monterrey-only](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916)** — 5d overdue review request from Diego; Big Sur removal ships Jun 8, so review this week (ideally today).
7. 📅 **[O-L Weekly Meeting](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215106190309457)** — standing meeting today.
8. 📥 **Inbox triage + set today's 1-Must** (Monday ritual — DB shows no open "1 Must today" task yet for 2026-06-01).
9. 🟡 **Batch 12 queued review requests + mentions** (Apple repo + privacy-config) — after the TP block, not during.

### 🔴 Urgent / Overdue
-**OVERDUE — DRI**: [Hide Free plan • Upgrade [0.5d]](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158952) — 4d overdue, top_priority. PR #5149 ✅/✅. **Action**: merge today.
-**OVERDUE — DRI**: [Hide "stop chat" button [0.5d]](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158954) — 3d overdue, top_priority. PR #5173 ✅/✅. **Action**: merge today.
-**OVERDUE — DRI**: [Ship AI onboarding winner (Treatment B) [0.5d]](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158955) — 4d overdue, top_priority. Last comment Alessandro (May 29) — Treatment B / tracker-blocker experiment overlap concern. Alex is the blocker. PR #5145 has 🔴 CI. **Action**: respond to Alessandro's feasibility concern + fix CI.
-**OVERDUE — AUTHOR**: [Follow-up: add support of Inline Text Images to TypingTextAnimation](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214040804696193) — 4d overdue, inbox. PR #4663 is ✅ but still draft / ⏳ waiting. **Action**: promote to ready-for-review, or close if superseded by ship-of-the-experiment.
-**OVERDUE — REVIEWER**: [PR: Make our macOS app Monterrey-only](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916) — 5d overdue. Diego's Big Sur removal ships Jun 8. **Action**: review this week (today is best — Diego flagged on Jun 1).
-**OVERDUE — DRI**: [Desktop Browser Feature Owner Survey](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214940335721015) — 6d overdue, 5-min anonymous form. **Action**: fill it out.
-**OVERDUE — AUTHOR**: [PR Check is failing on main (May 15)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214797526093576) — 17d overdue, Apple CI Failing Tests. Per Sam S's Sun-night comment on the sibling task, he has a fix PR that's stable across overnight runs. **Action**: confirm Sam's PR is merged, or chase him today.
**Backlog cluster** (do_later + quick_wins + aged-out inbox items — 95+ items, none surface individually): five inbox/planning items have been open >40d and are informational only (Tab preview 412d, Duo+Grafana 313d, Assertion Failure Pixel Anomaly 257d, Review Overdue Tasks 125d, PR Check failing test 40d). Not urgent — surface during weekly review or batch with the Jan-2026 overdue-summary task when capacity allows.
### 🟠 Needs Action Today
**Ship Reviews (DRI)** — TP parent [iOS Address onboarding conflicts with unified input and ship AI onboarding winner](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214592943696234) due **Fri 2026-06-05**.
All four `top_priority` subtasks listed above under Urgent/Overdue. Alex is the current blocker on all of them (PRs need merging, CI needs fixing, implementation needs to start). Once PR #5145 is green and PRs #5149 / #5173 are merged, the SR thread re-enters "waiting for Alessandro re-review" — but not yet. The [Ship Review task itself](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215009192158961) is delegated and tracking the parent.
**Tech Designs**: None requiring Alex's action today.
**PFRs**: None open.
**Incidents**: None open.
**PR Reviews**: **12 review requests + mentions queued** (Apple repo + privacy-configuration). Batch *after* the TP block — full list lives in `asana_context.md`. Notable: phishing-protection dataset bump and nativeStorage 100% rollout look low-friction.
### 🟡 Delegated — Follow Up Needed
- 🔔 **OVERDUE**: [🤖 Check for dependabot PRs](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215057989642782) — Tom Strba, due 2026-05-25 (7d overdue), maintenance rotation. **Suggested ping**: "Hey Tom — Mon maintenance task still open from last week. Anything blocking, or can I help reassign?"
- 🔔 **STALE/OVERDUE**: [PR: C-S-S Fix site copy/cut/paste/text selection restrictions](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1207521936429896) — 76d stale, no GitHub match found, no clear assignee. **Action**: chase status or close if abandoned.
- 🔔 **OVERDUE**: [Privacy Triage: iOS Demo tracker blocking after chat in onboarding](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214965405681675) — Jake Abel, due 2026-05-21 (11d overdue). Parent project `[ON HOLD]` per weekly plan — **monitoring**, no ping unless Demo project resumes.
- Misc legacy delegated items (autofill empty field, DBP assertion, Localization) are 100+ days stale with no active signal — leave for monthly cleanup.
*No "PR merged but Asana task still open" matches in the GitHub correlation today.*
### 🔵 Rhythms
