## Daily Brief — 2026-05-31
### ✨ Morning
On this day in 1859, the Great Bell of Westminster — Big Ben — first started chiming over London. It was hauled up the tower lying on its side because nobody had built a clock that big before and they weren't entirely sure it would fit upright. (It did. Mostly. The original bell cracked four months later.)
🌿 It's Sunday — step outside for 5 minutes before opening anything with a notification badge.
**Today's anchor**: Sunday — no scheduled standing meetings. Weekly plan for Mon 6/1 → Fri 6/5 is in place; today is prep/runway, not execution. New signals since Friday: 2 task changes (Disable back button subtask closed, Friday 1-Must completed), 0 new comments on my tasks.
> Note: No daily brief for 2026-05-30 (Saturday). Carrying forward from Friday's state and the fresh weekly plan.
## Plan for Today
1. ⚡ Complete the [Desktop Browser Feature Owner Survey](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214940335721015) — 5-min anonymous, overdue 5d, zero ambiguity. Easiest single win in the backlog.
2. 🧠 Skim [Eduardo's SIGKILL defensive-weak-captures PR](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215224247451374) (AOR-secondary Crash Reporting) — comment only if pattern looks wrong; otherwise pass.
3. 📋 Sanity-check Monday's TP runway: confirm PR #5149 is still ✅ green and approved (one-click merge tomorrow AM), confirm PR #5145 CI is still 🔴, confirm PR #5173 is still waiting on reviewer.
4. 🪪 Confirm the Privacy Triage delegated to Jake Abel ([1214965405681675](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214965405681675), due 2026-05-21, 10d overdue) — this is the gate for the Demo tracker ON HOLD task due Fri 6/5. Draft a Monday-morning nudge so it's not the first thing you write at 9am.
5. 🧖 If time: glance at "Try Visiting a Site: Background" acceptance criteria ([1214828145455342](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214828145455342), due Mon) before sleep — a 10-min read tonight saves 30 min of staring at it tomorrow.
Anything beyond this is bonus — Sunday isn't for execution, it's for arriving at Monday with momentum.

### 🔴 Urgent / Overdue
**[OVERDUE] [DRI] — [PR: Make our macOS app Monterrey-only - 1-3d](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215150214975916)**
Context: Due 2026-05-27 (4d overdue). Diego confirmed Jun 8 is Big Sur's last release; this is the Monterrey+ follow-up and a hard dependency on the next release train.

Context: Two Apple-CI failing-tests tasks. Weekly plan slots Wed 6/3 for investigation — may share root cause.
Action: No action today; queued for Wed 6/3.
**📦 Backlog cluster (informational, not urgent)**
Several inbox/planning tasks are stale >30d but live in low-urgency lanes: [Pinned tab opens link in background tab](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214038885921128) (30d), [Text selection in the address bar](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214071796247142) (30d), [Review Overdue Tasks Summary - 22 Tasks (Jan 2026)](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1212881948512860) (124d). Touch only if TP/AOR slots clear.

### 🟠 Needs Action Today
**Ship Reviews (DRI)** — None blocking on Alex today. All Treatment B blockers are PR-merge/review mechanics, not approvals.
**Tech Designs (Reviewer / Author)** — None requiring action today.
**PR Reviews** — 6 review requests + 5 mentions queued in GitHub (see asana_context.md `GitHub — Needs Attention`). **Batch on Tuesday after TP block** — not Sunday.
**PFRs** — None active.
**Incidents** — None open.
**Quick AOR skim (non-blocking)** — Eduardo Pinto's SIGKILL defensive-weak-captures PR ([1215224247451374](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1215224247451374)). 10-min read; comment only if pattern looks wrong.

### 🟡 Delegated — Follow Up Needed
**[OVERDUE] [DELEGATOR] — [Privacy Triage: Apple - iOS: Demo tracker blocking after chat in onboarding](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1214965405681675)** — Jake Abel
Context: Due 2026-05-21 (10d overdue). This is the gate for the [Demo tracker ON HOLD parent](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1213551050320249), your Fri 6/5 deliverable.
Action: Monday AM — DM/comment to Jake: "Hey Jake — privacy triage on this is the unblock for our Fri ship; can you take a look this week, or flag if you need anything from me to move it?"
**[STALLED] [DELEGATOR] — [PR: C-S-S Fix site copy/cut/paste/text selection restrictions](https://app.asana.com/0/0/1207521936429896)**
Context: 75d since last activity. Snapshot found no matching GitHub PR.
Action: Either close the Asana task or re-verify the PR still exists. Low priority; clear during AOR Quick Wins.
No "⚠️ GitHub match: MERGED" rows in the delegated PR correlation — nothing forgotten-to-close.
The remaining 100+ delegated tasks are long-tail backlog (>30d, no due dates, mostly Watched/Backlog projects). Not surfaced individually.

### 🔵 Rhythms
**TP**: Ship AI onboarding winner cluster (4 subtasks, all in `top_priority` section). Last modified 2026-05-29. **Not stale.** Next TP Thread check: TP not yet close to completion — PR #5149 awaiting merge, 3 sibling subtasks still open. **No Next TP Thread needed yet.**
**1:1 with Dominik**: Skipped this week — Dominik OOO MonWed LDX3 '26, ThuFri Public Holiday. Next 1:1 window ~Jun 9. Career time redirected to Project Advisor doc Part 1, blocked for Thu 6/4.
**Upcoming this week**:
- Standing meetings: **O-L Weekly Mon 6/1**, **Apple Weekly Tue 6/2**, **O-N Weekly Wed 6/3**.
- **AFK prep**: Partly AFK for WWDC'26 starts Jun 8 (8 days away). No in-flight items scheduled to land during that window — but if any of this week's deliverables slip past Fri 6/5, they collide with AFK. Watch the Demo tracker (Fri 6/5) and Address Bar Toggle Assets (Thu 6/4).
- No active rotation. No performance review deadline within 7 days.
