Section 2 — Operator-action queue (15 open)
Launch-gating (3 new from last night's SRE sweep — all agent-executable per [[feedback_credentials_pre_launch_posture]], dispatched):
- #2641 Set Alpaca paper-mode env vars on raxx-api-prod — trading routes non-functional without
- #2642 Enable FLAG_SENTRY_BACKEND=1 on raxx-api-prod — zero error capture at launch otherwise
- #2601 Verify WEBAUTHN_ORIGIN on raxx-api-prod — same boot-loop class as yesterday's staging outage
Pre-launch ops:
- #2012 Console flag promotions backfill — feature-dev writing script tonight
- #1645 Remove CF Access from getraxx.com — launch-day morning, locked
- #197 MBT securities-attorney engagement — BLR prep done; outreach window tight
Non-blocking: #2545 #2544 #2443 #2324 #2295 #2266 #2141 #1898 #1897 #1896 #1895
Section 3 — Wave performance
- Open issues: 352 total (deferred-parked 120 + active queue ~232)
ready-for-dev: 7pre-launch-blocker: 13 (down from 14 yesterday —#2521closed)- Closed in last 24h: 24 issues
- Backlog reduction sprint hit goal — 222 active queue under 250 target
Section 4 — SEV alerts
None. Staging + prod both healthy. Two CI run failures overnight (Nightly Security Scan + Terraform email-delivery-stack) — both follow-up tracked, not customer-impacting.
Section 5 — T-2 launch readiness
Active dispatches (3 agents in flight from end of yesterday):
- SRE executing 3 prod config:set syncs (Alpaca + WebAuthn + Sentry) + WAF launch-posture comments
- Feature-dev: #2012 flag-promotions backfill script (--dry-run/--apply)
- One conflict resolution needed: #2636 broker-key rename rebase
Operator decisions locked yesterday:
- WAF Phase 1 log-only at launch; finish challenge→block soak post-launch (per [[feedback_credentials_pre_launch_posture]])
- Referral bonus deferred until Hinch Newman sign-off; v1 ships attribution-only (per [[project_referral_bonus_deferred]])
- MBT v1 needs Antonakakis (Stark & Stark) or Lex Nova engagement before ship — outreach window critical
- Tax-strategy bundle: v1 ships informational features (top 5 per BLR); v1.1 ships recommendation/execution
Single biggest schedule risk: MBT securities-attorney engagement turnaround.
