description	This skill should be used when verifying a merged PR deployed correctly and production is healthy.

postmerge Skill

Harness adapter (Claude vs Grok Build)

Invoke via Claude: soleur:postmerge <PR> | Grok: /postmerge <PR>.

Polling CI / health checks without asking the operator:

• Claude Code: Monitor tool for Phase 2 main CI and Phase 3 health retries.
• Grok Build: AwaitShell with pattern (completed success, postmerge verification complete) or Shell with block_until_ms.

Canonical: plugins/soleur/lib/harness.ts → pollInstructions(). Parent skills (ship Step 3.8, one-shot Step 8) MUST invoke postmerge before <promise>DONE</promise>.

Purpose: Enforce post-merge verification so bugs that only appear in production context are caught immediately after merge -- not days later. This closes the "last mile" gap where QA passes locally but production diverges (stale files, unapplied migrations, CSP violations from injected scripts).

CRITICAL: No command substitution. Never use $() in Bash commands. When a step says "get value X, then use it in command Y", run them as two separate Bash tool calls -- first get the value, then use it literally in the next call.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS should contain the PR number. If omitted, detect from the most recently merged PR on the current branch.

Phase 1: Verify PR is Merged

Confirm the PR reached MERGED state:

gh pr view <number> --json state,mergeCommit,headRefName --jq '{state, mergeCommit: .mergeCommit.oid, branch: .headRefName}'

If state is not MERGED, stop:

STOPPED: PR #<number> is not merged (state: <state>). Run /soleur:merge-pr first.

Record the merge commit SHA for later verification.

Phase 2: Wait for CI on Main

Check the latest CI run on main triggered by the merge:

gh run list --branch main --limit 3 --json databaseId,status,conclusion,headSha

Find the run matching the merge commit SHA. If no matching run yet, poll with the harness adapter (max 5 minutes) — Claude: Monitor tool; Grok: AwaitShell/Shell per pollInstructions(). Do NOT ask the operator to watch CI. Do NOT use Bash run_in_background:

for i in $(seq 1 20); do
  result=$(gh run view <run-id> --json status,conclusion --jq '{status, conclusion}')
  echo "$(date +%H:%M:%S) $result"
  echo "$result" | grep -q '"completed"' && break
  sleep 15
done

React to the final status from the Monitor output.

If CI passes: Proceed to Phase 3.

If CI fails: Report the failure with details:

gh run view <run-id> --log-failed 2>&1 | tail -50

Stop:

STOPPED: CI failed on main after merge.

Run ID: <run-id>
Conclusion: <conclusion>

Failed log tail:
<last 50 lines>

Investigate before proceeding. The merge is complete but production may not deploy.

Phase 3: Verify Production Deployment

Check if a health endpoint is configured. Look for deployment URLs in environment or project config:

# Check for DEPLOY_URL or PRODUCTION_URL in environment
echo "${DEPLOY_URL:-not_set}"
echo "${PRODUCTION_URL:-not_set}"

If a production URL is available, verify the deployment:

curl -sf --max-time 10 "<production-url>/health" | jq .

Use /health (the public, middleware-/CSP-bypassed health route returning {"status":"ok","version","build_sha","supabase","sentry",...}), NOT /api/health — the latter is an authenticated API route that 307-redirects an unauthenticated probe to /login, so curl -sf fails and HEALTH_VERIFIED is left false even when production is healthy. The build_sha field also confirms the merge commit is the live build.

If health check succeeds: Record the response, set HEALTH_VERIFIED=true, and proceed.

If health check fails or no URL configured: set HEALTH_VERIFIED=false, warn, and proceed (not all PRs trigger deployments):

WARNING: No production health check available. Skipping deployment verification.

HEALTH_VERIFIED is the explicit signal Phase 3.8 gates the feature-tweet draft on — a ship tweet must only be drafted for a feature confirmed live. Track it as a literal true/false; do NOT infer "verified" from "reached this line" (the warn-and-proceed branch also falls through to the next phase).

Phase 3.5: Sentry Cron Monitor Health

Verify scheduled functions are healthy post-deploy by querying Sentry cron monitors.

Prerequisites: SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN (or SENTRY_API_TOKEN fallback) must be available. If missing, warn and skip:

WARNING: SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN not set. Skipping Sentry health verification.

Query cron monitors:

SENTRY_TOKEN=$(doppler secrets get SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN -p soleur -c prd --plain 2>/dev/null || \
  doppler secrets get SENTRY_API_TOKEN -p soleur -c prd --plain)
SENTRY_ORG=$(doppler secrets get SENTRY_ORG -p soleur -c prd --plain 2>/dev/null || echo "jikigai")
API_HOST="${SENTRY_ORG}.sentry.io"

curl -sfS -H "Authorization: Bearer ${SENTRY_TOKEN}" \
  "https://${API_HOST}/api/0/organizations/${SENTRY_ORG}/monitors/?per_page=100" \
  | jq '[.[] | {slug: .slug, status: .status}] | map(select(.status != "ok" and .status != "active"))'

• If all monitors report ok or active: "Sentry cron monitors: all healthy"
• If any monitor reports error or missed: flag with monitor name and status. This is a WARNING, not a blocker — the monitor may have been unhealthy before this deploy.
• If Sentry API is unreachable or returns non-200: warn and skip (do not block on Sentry outages).

Graceful degradation: This check is advisory. A Sentry API failure does not block the postmerge pipeline.

Inngest liveness awareness (#6374)

Surface any OPEN inngest-down alarm so the operator is never told "prod is healthy" while the durable trigger layer (armed reminders + all server/inngest/functions/ crons) is dark. The external watchdog (scheduled-inngest-health.yml) files [ci/inngest-down] on a confirmed down; this is a cheap read that needs no Sentry token:

gh issue list --label ci/inngest-down --state open \
  --json number,title,createdAt --jq '.[] | "#\(.number) \(.title) (opened \(.createdAt))"'

• If it prints an open issue: surface a one-line advisory — "ADVISORY: inngest reports down (#<n>) — armed reminders and scheduled crons may not be firing; the external watchdog is auto-restarting / escalating. Do not assume scheduled work ran." Include it prominently in the Phase 7 report.
• If empty: silent (no line needed).

Advisory only — never hard-block the turn. inngest-down does not block all work; the operator retains agency. (An optional deeper probe — curl the /hooks/inngest-liveness HMAC+CF-Access hook — is available for a live verdict but is not required here; the open-issue read is the cheap default.)

Phase 3.6: Sentry Error-Count Delta (Fix Efficacy)

A merged-and-deployed fix can pass every gate above and still not work — the deploy is healthy, monitors are alive, files are fresh, but the error keeps firing because the fix addressed the wrong root cause (the KB-sync / oauth-probe failure class). Phase 3.5 proves the monitor is alive; this phase asks the harder question: did the error this PR claims to fix actually stop?

Run only when the PR body or linked issue names a specific Sentry issue (a *.sentry.io/issues/<id> URL, a SENTRY-<SHORTID>, or a Closes #N whose issue references one). If no Sentry issue is identified, skip silently — there is no error to measure.

Prerequisites: same SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN resolution as Phase 3.5 for the aggregate Discover count. The single-issue GET below, however, requires the write-scoped SENTRY_ISSUE_RW_TOKEN — the /organizations/<org>/issues/<id>/ endpoint returns 403 on the read-only SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN/SENTRY_API_TOKEN (they carry Discover/ingest scope, not event:read on the issue resource). Using the read token here makes the curl -sfS GET exit non-zero, leaving ISSUE_JSON empty → ISSUE_STOPPED stuck false → auto-resolve never fires. Resolve the RW token first; if it is absent, skip this phase (warn) since the GET cannot succeed without it.

# ISSUE_ID = the Sentry issue short-id or numeric id from the PR/issue body
# (a bare token: letters, digits, `-`, `_`). DEPLOY_TS = the merge commit's
# committer date (Phase 1 recorded the merge SHA) — the reference point for
# "did the error stop firing post-deploy?".
DEPLOY_TS=$(git show -s --format=%cI "<merge-commit-sha-from-phase-1>")
# The single-issue endpoint needs the write-scoped token (read tokens 403 here).
# Reused by the auto-resolve PUT below, so resolve it once. Absent → skip phase.
SENTRY_RW_TOKEN=$(doppler secrets get SENTRY_ISSUE_RW_TOKEN -p soleur -c prd --plain 2>/dev/null || true)
if [[ -z "$SENTRY_RW_TOKEN" ]]; then
  echo "WARNING: SENTRY_ISSUE_RW_TOKEN not set — cannot read the issue (read tokens 403 on /issues/<id>/). Skipping error-count delta + auto-resolve."
fi
# Query the issue; capture the response so the auto-resolve guard below can
# read status + lastSeen without a second GET.
ISSUE_JSON=$(curl -sfS -H "Authorization: Bearer ${SENTRY_RW_TOKEN}" \
  "https://${API_HOST}/api/0/organizations/${SENTRY_ORG}/issues/${ISSUE_ID}/")
echo "$ISSUE_JSON" | jq '{shortId, status, count, lastSeen}'
ISSUE_STATUS=$(echo "$ISSUE_JSON" | jq -r '.status')
ISSUE_LASTSEEN=$(echo "$ISSUE_JSON" | jq -r '.lastSeen')
# Mechanical stopped-firing signal — this boolean, NOT the prose below, gates
# the auto-resolve PUT. True only when the issue is already resolved/ignored OR
# lastSeen predates the deploy. Any parse failure leaves it false (fail-safe:
# never auto-resolve on ambiguous data).
ISSUE_STOPPED=false
if [[ "$ISSUE_STATUS" == "resolved" || "$ISSUE_STATUS" == "ignored" ]]; then
  ISSUE_STOPPED=true
elif [[ -n "$ISSUE_LASTSEEN" && "$ISSUE_LASTSEEN" != "null" ]]; then
  LASTSEEN_EPOCH=$(date -d "$ISSUE_LASTSEEN" +%s 2>/dev/null || echo 9999999999)
  DEPLOY_EPOCH=$(date -d "$DEPLOY_TS" +%s 2>/dev/null || echo 0)
  (( LASTSEEN_EPOCH < DEPLOY_EPOCH )) && ISSUE_STOPPED=true
fi

Interpretation (all outcomes are WARN-only — never a merge blocker):

• lastSeen is older than the deploy timestamp or status is resolved/ignored (ISSUE_STOPPED=true): "Sentry error-count delta: error appears to have stopped firing post-deploy." — the expected good outcome; report STOPPED (or AUTO-RESOLVED if the write below succeeds). Auto-resolve runs in this branch only (see below).
• lastSeen is after the deploy timestamp (ISSUE_STOPPED=false): "WARNING: Sentry issue <shortId> is still firing after the deploy (lastSeen ). The fix may be ineffective or the root cause may differ from the diagnosis — recommend re-opening for investigation rather than closing." Report STILL-FIRING and surface it prominently in the Phase 7 report. Never auto-resolve in this branch.
• Sentry API unreachable / issue not found / non-200: warn and report SKIPPED.

Auto-resolve (expected-good-outcome branch only). When the GET above shows the error has stopped firing (lastSeen older than the deploy or status already resolved/ignored) and the issue is not already resolved, PUT status:"resolved" so the historical issue leaves the active list automatically. This requires a dedicated write-scoped token — the SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN/SENTRY_API_TOKEN read tokens lack event:write/event:admin and return 403 on the write endpoint, so resolve a separate token and skip (do NOT fall back to a read token) when it is absent:

# SENTRY_RW_TOKEN was already resolved in Phase 3.6 above (the issue GET needs
# it too). Reused here for the PUT.

# Fire ONLY when the mechanical ISSUE_STOPPED signal is true (the still-firing
# branch is structurally unreachable here, never prose-gated), a write token is
# present, the issue is not already resolved, and ISSUE_ID is a bare token (the
# regex blocks a crafted id with `/`/`?` from retargeting a different issue on
# this state-mutating PUT). Body is discarded (-o /dev/null) — it returns the
# full issue object, which can carry production event data; only the HTTP code
# is load-bearing.
if [[ -n "$SENTRY_RW_TOKEN" && "$ISSUE_STOPPED" == "true" && "$ISSUE_STATUS" != "resolved" \
      && "$ISSUE_ID" =~ ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]+$ ]]; then
  RESOLVE_HTTP=$(curl -sS -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' -X PUT \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${SENTRY_RW_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{"status":"resolved"}' \
    "https://${API_HOST}/api/0/organizations/${SENTRY_ORG}/issues/${ISSUE_ID}/")
  if [[ "$RESOLVE_HTTP" == "200" ]]; then
    echo "Sentry error-count delta: AUTO-RESOLVED issue ${ISSUE_ID}."
  else
    echo "WARNING: Sentry issue auto-resolve failed (${RESOLVE_HTTP}): verify SENTRY_ISSUE_RW_TOKEN has event:admin on ${SENTRY_ORG}; resolve manually in the UI."
  fi
fi

The PUT reuses the SAME API_HOST/SENTRY_ORG resolution as the GET above, so it inherits the env-correct jikigai-eu host from Doppler prd. On any non-200 (403 under-scoped, transient) it emits a WARN and continues — never blocks. Report vocabulary for this phase is AUTO-RESOLVED (write succeeded) / STOPPED (stopped firing, no token or already resolved) / STILL-FIRING / SKIPPED.

Why WARN-only, not a blocker: a true pre/post delta needs the original error to actually re-fire in the brief post-merge window. Low-frequency bugs (daily-cron failures, rare-path exceptions) legitimately show zero events for hours after a correct fix, so a hard gate here would produce noisy false negatives that erode trust in the pipeline. The signal is a prompt to look, not a verdict. For high-frequency errors a continued-firing signal is strong evidence the fix missed; consider a /loop re-check 15–30 min out before marking the linked issue resolved.

Phase 3.7: First-Deploy-After-Pipeline-Change Watch

Enforces wg-dark-launch-deploy-gates. A change to deploy-gating logic cannot be validated by the same deploy it gates: if the changed gate is itself broken, the first post-merge deploy rolls back, and the rollback looks like a bad app deploy rather than a bad gate. This phase makes that case explicit so the gating change — not the app — is suspected first.

Trigger (skip the phase if none match). Check whether the merged PR touched deploy-gating logic:

# Did this PR change a gate that can roll back / block a deploy?
gh pr diff <number> --name-only | grep -qE 'apps/web-platform/infra/ci-deploy\.sh|apps/web-platform/infra/ci-deploy-wrapper\.sh' && PIPELINE_GATE_CHANGE=1
# Also treat changes to the gating phases of the ship/postmerge skills as pipeline-gate changes.
gh pr diff <number> --name-only | grep -qE 'plugins/soleur/skills/(ship|postmerge)/SKILL\.md' && PIPELINE_GATE_CHANGE=1

If PIPELINE_GATE_CHANGE is unset, skip to Phase 4.

Watch the first post-merge release run (the one Phase 2/3 already identified) for a canary rollback:

# The release run triggered by this merge (apps/web-platform/** path filter).
RELEASE_RUN_ID=$(gh run list --branch main --workflow web-platform-release.yml \
  --limit 1 --json databaseId --jq '.[0].databaseId')
# REASON is written by ci-deploy.sh's final_write_state. A canary gate that
# rejected a HEALTHY host surfaces as one of these.
RUN_CONCLUSION=$(gh run view "$RELEASE_RUN_ID" --json conclusion --jq '.conclusion')
ROLLBACK_REASON=$(gh run view "$RELEASE_RUN_ID" --log 2>/dev/null \
  | grep -oE 'reason=(canary_sandbox_failed|production_start_failed|canary_[a-z_]+)' | head -1)

Interpretation:

• Release succeeded: the changed gate passed on a real deploy — the dark-launch observation is satisfied. Report GATE-VALIDATED.
• Release failed with a canary/sandbox rollback reason AND this PR changed gating logic: suspect the gate, not the app. A gating check that diverged from production reality (e.g. a synthetic probe that does not match what runs in prod) blocks every deploy. Recommended action: revert the gating change immediately (it is unvalidated by definition — its first real deploy rolled back), restore the prior known-good gate, and re-deploy; investigate the probe separately and re-introduce it NON-BLOCKING per wg-dark-launch-deploy-gates. Report GATE-SUSPECT — revert recommended and surface it at the top of the Phase 7 report.
• Release failed with a non-gate reason (build, migration, unrelated infra): ordinary deploy failure — investigate normally; do not assume the gate.

Why a watch and not a pre-merge block: the only faithful validation of a deploy gate is a real deploy, which by definition happens post-merge. The pre-merge half of the rule — ship the gate non-blocking first — lives in wg-dark-launch-deploy-gates; this phase is the safety net that catches a gate shipped blocking-first anyway, turning "every deploy silently rolls back" into a named, one-revert recovery. Why: #4932 — a canary bwrap probe validated only against an always-succeeding test mock failed on a healthy host and rolled back every web-platform deploy until reverted (#4941).

Phase 3.8: Feature-Tweet Draft (verify + display)

The draft is now generated pre-merge by /ship (Phase 6 "Feature-Tweet Draft (pre-merge bundle)") and committed to the feature branch, so for the normal /one-shot / /ship flow it ALREADY landed on main with this PR — where content-publisher.sh reads from. This phase verifies that on-main draft, displays it for approval, and warns when deploy health is unverified. It only generates a draft as a catch-up when /ship was hand-rolled and the draft never landed.

bash scripts/lib/tweet-eligibility.sh <merged-pr-number>

Branch on eligibility, then on whether the draft is already on main:

• Ineligible (exit non-zero, excluded: <reason>) → silent no-op. Most PRs land here (fixes, infra, non-product); exclusion is the designed outcome, not a fault. Do not surface it in the report.

• Eligible AND a draft for this PR is on main (the /ship pre-merge bundle worked — detect via git grep -l 'pr_reference: "#<merged-pr-number>"' origin/main -- knowledge-base/marketing/distribution-content/): display the draft's full content (title + every X tweet + the Bluesky post) inline for operator approval — read it back from main (git show origin/main:<path>), never reproduce from memory. Then:

  • HEALTH_VERIFIED=true → operator instruction: "the draft is on main; set BOTH publish_date and status: scheduled to publish."
  • HEALTH_VERIFIED=false → warn, do not block: "the draft is on main but production health was NOT verified — do NOT set status: scheduled until you confirm the deploy is live." (The draft is inert until then.)

  The display-for-approval contract is owned by feature-tweet SKILL.md §Output; the path alone is insufficient (the operator cannot approve copy they cannot see).

• Eligible BUT no draft on main (a hand-rolled /ship skipped the pre-merge bundle) → catch-up: invoke the draft generator, display it, and note it needs a follow-up commit to reach main:

  /soleur:feature-tweet #<merged-pr-number>
  

  Eligible PR #N had no feature-tweet draft on main (the /ship pre-merge bundle was skipped). Generated a catch-up draft — commit it to main via a follow-up PR so content-publisher.sh can drain it, then set publish_date

  • status: scheduled once the deploy is confirmed.

Multi-PR contract (explicit v1): one tweet per eligible PR, using postmerge's single bound PR number. If a deploy bundled multiple PRs, only the bound PR is drafted — note in the Phase 7 report that other eligible PRs need the standalone catch-up path. /soleur:merge-pr-only flows bypass this hook by design; the recovery is standalone /soleur:feature-tweet #N.

Phase 4: Verify File Freshness

Read key files from the merged commit to verify they match expectations -- NOT from the bare repo filesystem which may contain stale content.

For each file changed in the PR:

gh pr diff <number> --name-only

Spot-check up to 5 files by reading from the merged main:

git show main:<filepath>

Compare against expectations from the PR description and review. Flag if any file content seems stale or doesn't reflect the PR changes.

Phase 5: Browser Verification (Conditional)

Skip if: The PR has no UI changes (no .tsx, .css, .html files in the diff).

If UI changes exist:

1. Start the dev server if not running (or use the production URL if available)
2. Use Playwright MCP to navigate to affected pages
3. Take screenshots of key states
4. Check browser console for errors (especially CSP violations)
5. Verify no broken resources or layout regressions

If Playwright MCP is unavailable, do NOT warn-and-skip — fall through to the committed harness path (Phase 5.5 below), which drives the deployed app via the chromium bundled in @playwright/test with no MCP-browser dependency. The warn-and-skip punt is exactly what let the #5391/#5421/#5436 broken fixes pass green. Record Browser verification: DELEGATED-TO-LIVE-VERIFY and proceed.

Phase 5.5: Live Verification (path-triggered, REPORT-ONLY)

Verifies the deployed artifact for the PR classes where the mock-hermetic e2e suite structurally lies (realtime / server-commit-timing / session-auth / DOM-server-timing — the #5391→#5421→#5436 class). The harness (apps/web-platform/scripts/live-verify/run.ts, #5452 / ADR-064) signs in as a dedicated synthetic prod principal (never an operator/real-user session), drives the deployed UI, and asserts a freshly-started conversation appears in the Recent Conversations rail.

Dark-launch posture (wg-dark-launch-deploy-gates): this gate ships REPORT-ONLY. It records and surfaces a tri-state result but does NOT block "done". The empty→FAIL-closed + FAIL-blocks-done flip is tracked in #5463, and that flip also requires re-homing the harness into a GitHub Action / workflow_dispatch with a Sentry-observable result (ADR-033 Option C) — a boolean flip inside this agent-driven skill is NOT acceptable for a blocking gate (it would recreate the #4932 non-deterministic-blocking-gate class).

1. Path trigger (FR7). The trigger set is the committed source-of-truth apps/web-platform/scripts/live-verify/trigger-paths.txt (not SKILL.md prose). Reuse Phase 4's changed-file list and match:

changed=$(gh pr diff <number> --name-only)
patterns=$(grep -vE '^[[:space:]]*#|^[[:space:]]*$' \
  apps/web-platform/scripts/live-verify/trigger-paths.txt)
if printf '%s\n' "$changed" | grep -qE -f <(printf '%s\n' "$patterns"); then
  TRIGGERED=1
else
  TRIGGERED=0   # pure logic/docs/copy/config → skip (fail-open; the drift
                # canary test guards against an un-listed new realtime dir)
fi

If TRIGGERED=0: record Live verification: SKIPPED (no triggering paths) and continue to Phase 6.

2. Run the harness (report-only). The harness needs Doppler prd secrets (LIVE_VERIFY_USER_PASSWORD, LIVE_VERIFY_EXPECTED_UID/REF, the Supabase anon-key, PRODUCTION_URL). It is service-role-free (AC2b) and message-minimal (I-action-send-free). Run from the app dir under prd:

cd apps/web-platform && \
  doppler run -p soleur -c prd -- bun run scripts/live-verify/run.ts \
  2>&1 | grep -E '^RESULT: '

Runner browser (#5485). If this host's OS does not support the bundled @playwright/test chromium (chromium.launch() → CANT-RUN:browser-launch:…), prepend a system-browser override — LIVE_VERIFY_BROWSER_CHANNEL=chrome (or LIVE_VERIFY_BROWSER_PATH=/path/to/chrome) — to the doppler run line. Unset on ubuntu-latest (bundled chromium works); see ADR-064 §"Runner browser + cookie shape". The terminal substrate for the blocking flip is the GH-Action re-home (#5463 item 3), not this override.

The harness emits exactly one structured line: RESULT: PASS, RESULT: FAIL — <redacted detail>, or RESULT: CANT-RUN:<reason>. Empty output is treated as CANT-RUN:no-result-line (fail-closed semantics for the result recording, even though the gate is report-only for "done"). If the harness cannot bootstrap (synthetic principal not yet seeded — see apps/web-platform/scripts/bootstrap-live-verify.sh), expect CANT-RUN:CONFIG:….

3. Record + surface the tri-state. Always surface the result; never silently drop it:

• PASS → record Live verification: PASS.
• FAIL → record Live verification: FAIL — <detail> and surface prominently (this is the regression the gate exists to catch). Report-only: it does not block "done" on this PR, but it is the signal the #5463 flip will gate on.
• CANT-RUN:<reason> → record Live verification: CANT-RUN:<reason> and auto-file a tracking issue (wg-when-deferring-a-capability):

gh issue create --label type/chore \
  --title "live-verify CANT-RUN: <reason> (PR #<number>)" \
  --body "deferred-automation backlog item; the live-verify harness could not complete.
reason: <reason>
re-evaluate when: synthetic principal seeded / deploy URL reachable / teardown invariant restored.
Tracks the #5463 blocking-flip precondition."

A CANT-RUN:CANT-TEARDOWN-has-action-sends reason is an invariant breach (the synthetic principal acquired a WORM action_sends row) — escalate it, do NOT reap-next-run.

Phase 6: Update Issue and Compound

If the PR body contained Closes #N, update the linked issue with verification results:

gh issue comment <issue-number> --body "Post-merge verification complete for PR #<pr-number>.

- CI on main: PASSED
- Production health: <PASSED/SKIPPED/FAILED>
- Sentry monitors: <HEALTHY/WARNING/SKIPPED>
- Sentry error-count delta: <AUTO-RESOLVED/STOPPED/STILL-FIRING/SKIPPED>
- File freshness: <PASSED/N files checked>
- Browser verification: <PASSED/SKIPPED/DELEGATED-TO-LIVE-VERIFY>
- Live verification: <PASS/FAIL/CANT-RUN:reason/SKIPPED> (report-only, #5463)
"

Graceful Degradation

Missing Prerequisite	Behavior
No production URL	Skip health check with warning
No SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN	Skip Sentry cron monitor check AND error-count delta with warning
No SENTRY_ISSUE_RW_TOKEN	Skip the entire error-count-delta + auto-resolve phase (the single-issue GET 403s on read tokens); recommend manual resolution as today
Sentry API unreachable	Skip Sentry cron monitor check with warning
No Sentry issue identified in PR/linked issue	Skip error-count delta silently (nothing to measure)
Sentry issue not found via API	Skip error-count delta with warning
Playwright MCP unavailable	Skip browser verification with warning
CI run not found	Poll up to 5 minutes, then warn and proceed
No UI files in diff	Skip browser verification entirely
No linked issue	Skip issue comment

Notes

• Always use git show main:<path> to read merged files -- never read from the bare repo filesystem directly.
• MCP tools resolve paths from the repo root. Use absolute paths when in a worktree.
• This skill is designed to run after /soleur:merge-pr completes. It can also be invoked standalone with a PR number.

Production Debugging

• For production debugging use Sentry API (SENTRY_API_TOKEN in Doppler prd), Better Stack, or /health — never SSH for logs. SSH is for infra provisioning only. (ex-cq-for-production-debugging-use) To read a Sentry issue/event by id inline, use doppler run -p soleur -c prd -- scripts/sentry-issue.sh <id> (runbook knowledge-base/engineering/operations/runbooks/sentry-issue-read.md); for host/app logs use betterstack-query.sh (runbook betterstack-log-query.md).
• For deploy webhook debugging, fetch WEBHOOK_DEPLOY_SECRET/CF_ACCESS_CLIENT_ID/CF_ACCESS_CLIENT_SECRET from Doppler prd_terraform (not prd). GET https://deploy.soleur.ai/hooks/deploy-status with CF Access headers + HMAC-sha256 over empty body. Full runbook: deploy-status-debugging.md. (ex-cq-deploy-webhook-observability-debug)
• Doppler env values on prd are baked into the container at start via --env-file (cloud-init.yml). Flipping a flag in Doppler does NOT affect the running container — POST-X gates that depend on a freshly-flipped flag must redeploy the current image tag (POST to /hooks/deploy) between the flip and the verification smoke.
