🔴 Urgent / Overdue
[ACTIVE] Ship Review: iOS Address onboarding conflicts — due Jun 8 (today)
- Context: Ship Review opened Jun 5. Alex commented Jun 5: "will update the build on Monday." Design subtask → Costas (reviewing, said she'd check Jun 5). PR subtask → Alessandro. iPad compatibility subtask → Alex M (open, no activity).
- Action: Push updated build to TestFlight today → comment in Ship Review. Check iPad compatibility subtask.
[INBOX] PR: Add installType and installAge — apple-browsers — due Jun 8 (today), also in GitHub review queue
- Action: Review the PR.
[ACTIVE] PR Check is failing on main — testWhenTabWithConnectionLostError… — due Apr 22 (47d overdue)
- Context: Sam S posted a fix PR Jun 5; fix succeeded overnight. Verify Sam's PR has landed. If not, follow up.
- Action: Check CI on main; close task if green.
Backlog cluster (do_later / quick_wins + chronic stale inbox — not urgent today): "Bug: Tab preview stuck" (419d), "Duo login to Grafana" (320d), "Assertion Failure Pixel Anomaly" (264d), "Review Overdue Tasks Summary Jan 2026" (132d), "Proposal: Phase out Singletons" (1050d in do_later), and ~15 quick_wins items. Not surfaced individually — dates are stale by design.
🟠 Needs Action Today
Ship Reviews (DRI)
Ship Review: iOS Address onboarding conflicts — 3 open subtasks:
- Design: Ship Review: Design → Costas is reviewing (said she'd look Jun 5). Waiting for Costas after today's build push.

- iPad: Ship Review: (iOS Only) Ensure compatibility on iPad → Alex M is DRI. Alex is the blocker — no activity, needs checking.

- Enable ad blocking feature availability — soft launch
- [macOS] Improve value transformer failure observability
- [macOS] Avoid a force unwrap crash when calling debugDescription
- Fix maestro tests
Mattermost Bots request Jake (Jun 5): "Best to have only 1–3 channels; consider using Asana tasks for lifecycle tracking instead of opening/closing Mattermost channels." Isabel (Jun 5): "Channels persist even when archived — MM doesn't delete channels." Action: Reply with revised approach (consolidate channels, use Asana tasks for signaling resolution). (→ task)
Try a Search or AI Chat: Search box height — Costas commented Jun 5 "let's do it." Action: confirm scope + next step. (→ task)
