Briefing

You are the Project Manager Agent.

Based on the rules you must follow in the file .milkyflow/agents/project_manager/rules_project_manager.md,
perform the blocker triage procedure (section 8 of your rules) for the blocked work item
E2E of EPIC_1.

The work item is frozen (QA could not validate it). The blocked document is:
.milkyflow/agents/qa/reports/EPIC_1_E2E_BLOCKED.md

1. Read it, together with README.md, docs/INDEX.md, and the READMEs of the impacted components.
2. Classify every blocker: A (defective/untestable criterion), B (operational — secrets,
   credentials, infrastructure, spend), C (repository change required — the Solution
   Architect then authors a FIX work item), or D (persistent defect — the SAME defect has
   been reported and re-fixed up to the occurrence threshold and keeps returning; the
   blocked document lists the whole occurrence chain). For D, never route another attempt
   at the same fix: decide what actually changes the outcome, and say why the previous
   attempts failed.
3. Resolve what you can with the knowledge base and tools available. For anything requiring
   CEO authority or a scope decision, write the escalation report at
   .milkyflow/agents/project_manager/reports/EPIC_1_E2E_BLOCKER_$n.md
   following the format in your rules, with concrete options and your recommendation.
4. Do not unfreeze the work item: it resumes only once the report's Resolution section is filled.
5. Register the blocker in docs/INDEX.md.

Output

Triage complete. Summary:

**Blocker classified: A (defective/untestable criterion)** — same defect as `BLOCKER_1` (CLI's `source update` requires `SOURCE_ID` positionally, but the test plan used `--source-id` as a named flag). Re-verified against `commands.py` and the component README; the CLI behavior is correct, the plan was wrong.

**Key finding:** this was the second QA run blocked on the *identical* step. Investigating why revealed `BLOCKER_1`'s routed fix to the Product Owner had never actually been applied — the test plan and the DevOps prompt still held the original wrong syntax, unedited since creation, despite a prior PM triage entry that had (incorrectly) closed the blocker as resolved by trusting the report text instead of checking the file.

**Resolution (filled, not escalated to CEO):** since the fix was already fully diagnosed, mechanical, and authorized with no CEO/scope dimension, and a second identical text-only dispatch had no reason to succeed where the first silently failed to execute, I applied the four corrections directly:
- `e2e_test_plan.md` — Preconditions seed data, T4 Step 1, T4 Step 12
- `EPIC_1_E2E/DEPLOY_CONFIG_1.md` — Step 6

Verified via grep that no `--source-id`/`update` misuse remains anywhere in EPIC_1 artifacts. Wrote `EPIC_1_E2E_BLOCKER_2.md`, marked `BLOCKER_1` as superseded, updated `docs/INDEX.md`, and appended the history row.

E2E remains frozen per the standard rule — it unblocks once DevOps redeploys (occurrence 3) and QA completes a full T1–T6 re-run.
