Re-run the live e2e to prove the epic-continuation hop #1767
Description
This is the last unproven hop of the epic-continuation chain. Every known blocker in front of it is now merged.
What to run
Fixture repo: bradygaster/aspiregregator-squad-e2e
Comment /squad implement on epic #5. Children #8 (UI affordances) and #9 (test coverage) are still open and blocked.
Success criteria
The worker dispatches #8 as the next wave.
Failure signals to watch for:
- A new issue titled "Squad workflow dispatch missing command" — means the payload is still being lost
- A
noopwith no visible next step — means the continuation path went silent - Total silence — no comment and no noop. This exact failure occurred in an earlier run and its root cause was never definitively established. If it recurs, capture the full run log before retrying; that's the highest-value diagnostic available.
Fixes this validates
| PR | What it fixed |
|---|---|
| #1741 | dispatch inputs interpolated as ${{ github.event.inputs.* }} |
| #1742 | invalid frontmatter YAML (unquoted : in a skill description) |
| #1744 | worker allowed-files widened 64 → 109 globs; package-registry egress |
| #1747 | worker file globs |
| #1752 | correct dispatch payload + fail-loud safety net |
| #1765 / #1766 | schema probe no longer swallows the real payload |
Where to look when it runs
agent/safeoutputs.jsonl— what the agent actually producedsafe-outputs-items/safe-output-items.jsonl— what survived collection
A mismatch between these two is the signature of the probe bug. If they now match, #1766 worked.
Depends on
Nothing — all prerequisite fixes are merged to dev. The consumer workflow must be on a dev that includes #1766.

Fixture-repo hygiene is tracked separately — the older aspiregregator-squad-test repo has hand-created issues that were never produced by a real decomposition.

Flight sequencing note — gh-aw findings chain.
Depends on: nothing in this issue chain. Its own target is
bradygaster/aspiregregator-squad-e2e, epic #5, with real children #8/#9; it is independent of the olderaspiregregator-squad-testfixture decision in #1768. It does need the consumer workflow refreshed to adevinstall that includes #1766.Blocks:
bots:until this proves the merge-continuation relay is green on the current baseline.Suggested position: Wave 1 of 3. This is the highest-information action available and should run as soon as the fixture workflow refresh is in place.
Conflict risk: no expected repo-file conflict in

Outcome correction — the hop was NOT proven
This was closed at 08:18, before the run it describes started (08:19). Recording the actual result so this issue does not read as a success.
What the e2e proved: the implement-dispatch hop is clean.
/squad implementon epic #5 inbradygaster/aspiregregator-squad-e2eproduced exactly onedispatch_workflowcall with the payload intact and no schema probe preceding it. Run32348204357dispatched worker32348617589, which opened draft PR #13 for child #8.What it did not prove: the merge-continuation hop — the one that stalled the original epic. That only fires when a child PR merges, which had not happened yet at close time.
Result after merging PR #13 (2026-08-20T16:56Z): the continuation hop fires but its payload is destroyed.

Side effect: this also explains the silent-no-op behaviour that had been unexplained across several sessions — a run that dispatches nothing still reports green.
