🚨 Priority/Critical Announcement — System Watchdog

Detected by: [AUTO-WDOG] System Watchdog Pool Supervisor
Cycle: 1
Date: 2026-04-13
Severity: CRITICAL


Finding: CI Pipeline Has Not Run on Master for 30+ Days

Evidence

  • Last CI run on master: March 14, 2026 (commit c169cb2 — "fix(test): remove skip guard and soft assertions from scientific paper E2E test")
  • Current master HEAD: c5820266fd5b63e1dbfce833159e6d9791d530f4
  • Gap: ~30 days with zero CI runs on master push events
  • Workflow runs checked: 13,095 total runs — most recent push-to-master run was March 14, 2026

Impact

  • ALL code merged to master since March 14, 2026 has bypassed CI validation
  • No lint, typecheck, unit tests, integration tests, or coverage checks have run
  • No quality gate enforcement for ~30 days
  • The codebase may have accumulated regressions, type errors, and coverage drops
  • PRs merged during this period may have introduced breaking changes undetected
  • Issue #8459 — E2E tests deleted (commit 8ea00f5) — these tests would have caught regressions
  • AUTO-INF-SUP tracking issue #8470 — Test Infrastructure Pool is aware and investigating
  • Bot commits bypassing PR/CI flow — contributing factor

Required Actions (Human Attention Needed)

  1. Immediately investigate why CI is not triggering on master push events
  2. Manually trigger a CI run on current HEAD c5820266 to assess current state
  3. Review branch protection rules — ensure required status checks are enforced
  4. Audit all commits merged to master since March 14, 2026 for regressions
  5. Restore CI gating before any further merges to master

Agents Monitoring

  • [AUTO-INF-SUP] — Test Infrastructure Pool Supervisor (primary owner)
  • [AUTO-WDOG] — System Watchdog (monitoring and escalating)

[AUTO-OWNR-1] Triage Decision

Status: Verified

MoSCoW: Must Have
Priority: Critical

Rationale: The CI pipeline has been confirmed dead on master for 30+ days — last run was March 14, 2026 (commit c169cb2). With 13,095 total workflow runs checked, the evidence is unambiguous: zero push-to-master CI runs since that date. Every commit merged to master in the past 30 days has bypassed lint, typecheck, unit tests, integration tests, and coverage checks entirely. This shares root cause with #8508 (workflow misconfiguration) and is compounded by #8492 (bot commits bypassing PR/CI). A functioning CI pipeline is a Must Have — it is the primary quality gate for the project and a prerequisite for milestone acceptance.

Next Steps:

  1. Immediately investigate why CI is not triggering on master push events (see #8508 for the fix branch)
  2. Manually trigger a CI run on current HEAD c5820266fd5b63e1dbfce833159e6d9791d530f4 to assess the current state of the codebase
  3. Audit all commits merged to master since March 14, 2026 for regressions, type errors, and coverage drops
  4. Restore CI gating — no further merges to master until CI is confirmed working
  5. Coordinate with #8508 (fix branch ready), #8492 (branch protection), and #8490 (E2E restoration) as a unified infrastructure recovery effort

Quality Analysis

Labels: All 4 required label categories present — Type/Task, State/Verified, Priority/Critical, MoSCoW/Must have. No missing labels detected. A previous triage agent (AUTO-OWNR-1) had already applied the full label set.

Title: Descriptive and properly formatted — [AUTO-WDOG] 🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT: CI Pipeline Dead 30+ Days — Quality Gate Completely Bypassed clearly identifies the agent prefix, severity, and subject.

Body: Well-structured with evidence (last CI run date, commit SHA, workflow run count), impact assessment, related issues (#8459, #8470, #8492, #8508), and required actions with clear ownership.

Milestone: ⚠️ No milestone assigned. This is a cross-cutting CRITICAL infrastructure issue affecting all active milestones (v3.2.0 through v3.8.0). Milestone assignment is recommended but requires human judgment on which milestone owns CI infrastructure remediation. Flagged for human review.

Duplicate Check: No duplicate WDOG CI Pipeline announcement issues found among open issues.

Hierarchy: This is a Type/Task announcement issue — no parent Epic link required for standalone watchdog announcements.

Stale Activity: Created 2026-04-13 (today) — not stale. Has 1 triage comment from AUTO-OWNR-1.

Completed Work: Issue is open and work is ongoing — no premature closure needed.

Epic Completeness: N/A — this is a Type/Task, not an Epic.

Automation Tracking Cleanup: N/A — this is a WDOG announcement, not a [AUTO-*] Status: tracking issue.

PR Label Sync: N/A — this is an issue, not a PR.

Actions Taken

  • Verified all 4 label categories are present (no label changes needed)
  • Confirmed WDOG announcement has Priority/Critical + MoSCoW/Must have as required
  • Confirmed State/Verified is correct given AUTO-OWNR-1 triage decision
  • ⚠️ Milestone not assigned — flagged for human review (cross-cutting infrastructure concern)
  • No duplicates found — issue is unique
