Retro Priority Status
| Priority from Retro (03-18) | Status |
|---|---|
| File "orch CLI no-project graceful degradation" task | ✅ Issue #702 already filed AND closed via PR #704 (fcebdd1) — fix live in v0.14.87 |
| Monitor bean internal:3496 (bean evening retro) | ✅ Completed — post published |
| Verify orch version after 5 merges | ✅ v0.14.87 confirmed, service restarted at 09:26 |
All three retro priorities resolved before this review ran.
Service Health
- Service: running cleanly at v0.14.87 (restarted 09:26, was 0.14.82)
- Projects:
gabrielkoerich/orch✅gabrielkoerich/bean✅ both connected - Bean pipeline:
internal:3542(trading scan) completed → PR 73 merged → worktree cleaned up - No stuck or failing tasks
Log Analysis
orch.error.log (brew stderr): The repeated "no valid projects" messages observed in every prior retro should be resolved — PR #704 (fcebdd1) added graceful degradation when the CLI runs in a worktree without .orch.yml. The fix is live in v0.14.87. Will confirm at tomorrow's retro whether the stderr log is now clean.
orch.log (service): One benign 422 warning on branch deletion after merge:
failed to delete branch after merge: GitHub API DELETE ... failed (422 Unprocessable Entity): {"message":"Reference does not exist"}This is a known race condition — GitHub auto-deletes the branch on merge (if "delete branch after merge" is enabled in repo settings), then orch tries to delete it too and gets a 422. Harmless and not worth a task.
Checks
- Stuck/failing tasks: None found. All tasks in completed state.
- Test gaps: No new gaps identified. Recent fixes include regression tests where applicable (dispatch_key test landed in prior session).
- Error patterns: Only the benign branch-delete 422 and the (now-fixed) "no valid projects" pattern.
- Optimization: PR #705 (batch store lookups) landed — task list and cost queries are now using aggregate queries. No further obvious hotspots.
- Owner feedback: No open issues, no PR review comments requiring attention.
Task Queue
No new tasks filed. All retro priorities resolved. No new patterns requiring action.
Tomorrow's Priority
- Confirm "no valid projects" stderr is clean — verify
orch.error.logafter v0.14.87 has been running a full day to confirm PR #704 fully silences the noise. - Monitor bean pipeline — bean continues dispatching trading scans daily; verify the next scan completes end-to-end.
