Now I have everything I need. Key findings from the data:
- Dominik OOO ends today (Apr 20, Apple Meetup); 1:1 on Tuesday Apr 21 proceeds as confirmed in weekly review
- O-N Weekly Meeting cancellation (Gary Apr 11): "Canceling next week's call" = the Apr 14 call during meetup week, not Apr 21 — kick-off proceeds tomorrow
- Apple Weekly Team Meeting confirmed Apr 21 (Bartek moved it to skip meetup week)
- EP3/EP2 Calibration tasks: Christie onboarded Alex as a project reviewer; "no action needed on this task — I'll assign project submissions when available" → positive career development, no urgent action
- iOS Toggle Screen tracking task (
1213320237636425): intentionally still open — currently in Week 9-10 (data collection Apr 20–May 1), not to be closed - Tom Strba explicitly asked Alex to review
PR: Remove combinedPermissionView feature flagon Apr 18 (direct ask, Alex's AOR)
Weekly Plan — Week of 2026-04-20
Top Priority: iOS: Demo tracker blocking after chat in onboarding gid:1213551050320249 — Kick-off is tomorrow (Apr 21) at the O-N Weekly Meeting; Alex publicly declared this as next TP on Apr 14, Dominik's reaction confirmed, DRI with due May 11 — aligns with O-N momentum after the iOS Toggle Ship Review completing clean last week.

Career Action This Week
Draft Part 1 of Advisor Readiness doc gid:1210386994396212 — 30 min, before or after Tuesday's 1:1. Then raise Project Advisor at the 1:1 agenda with Dominik. This is the highest-leverage EP3 action and the most direct lever toward EP3 visibility this cycle.
Bonus: Christie has onboarded Alex as an EP3 project reviewer (gid:1214121856485502, gid:1214121856485500). Christie confirmed: "there's no action you need to take — I'll assign project submissions when available." GitHub invite already accepted. This directly advances the Project Advisor goal — watch these tasks for incoming calibration assignments.
Why others skipped:
- Primary AOR discussion → will be raised at 1:1 naturally; no separate pre-prep needed this week
- Calibration (Christie) → already resolved; Alex is now a reviewer, Christie owns the next step
- Assessment visibility → no active O-N/O-L Assessment with a comment gap identified this week
- 1:1 career prep → folded into the Advisor Readiness action above; raise directly at 1:1 Tuesday
On Radar / Participation Needed
- PR: Remove combinedPermissionView feature flag and old permission flow (apple-browsers)
gid:1214121879880035Tom Strba (Apr 18): "Since you have the best context, would you have space to review the PR please?" — ENGAGE: direct ask for Alex's code review on a feature flag/permission flow removal. Alex has the most context here. Review this week (Wednesday or Thursday).
