Events

Remaining red gates need ops/client action (out of scope for autonomous theme remediation): Dim 11 Security headers = HSTS + CSP + Permissions-Policy must be set at Traefik/ingress (not theme); Referrer-Policy weak, X-XSS-Protection deprecated value.
  • Dim 19 Forms = contact form is a placeholder; needs a real Gravity Forms form id wired + wp-mail-smtp configured.
  • Dim 21 Email = SPF/DKIM/DMARC on the production domain (none yet) + SMTP.
  • Dim 24 Infra = staging container OOM-flaps 502 + ~1.7s TTFB; needs pod memory/probes; also bounds dim 7 perf.
  • Dim 25 Analytics = no GA4/GTM; needs a client GA4 property.
  • Dim 26 Monitoring = no StatusCake/Grafana for this site.
  • Dim 7 Performance = 3.9MB image payload needs WebP re-export to the website-media.com CDN + the dim-24 TTFB fix.
  • Theme-side a11y/mobile/hardening/AEO/content/privacy fixes are deployed and green.
Jun 12 · 21:19eventdan
Dim 16 P0 (Lorem Ipsum) RESOLVED: provisional fact-based copy now live sitewide on staging (hero, bio, 6 platform cards, about, 2 campaign posts) via deploy-driven ag_content_refresh() migration.
  • open_p0_count now 0.
  • Dim 16 stays red on 2 CLIENT-blocked P1s: (a) endorsements section empty - needs real endorser names/photos/quotes; (b) Donate buttons point at /#contact - needs the real donation-processor URL (ActBlue/WinRed/etc.).
  • Plus P2: social links are href=# (need real Facebook/X/LinkedIn URLs).
  • All copy is PROVISIONAL pending campaign sign-off.

Gate 7 (Performance) BLOCKED for autonomous theme-only remediation.
  • Root causes: (1) page ships 3.9MB of images (9 imgs) — hero is a CSS background + headshot/flags are full-size PNG/JPG theme assets with no WebP/srcset; mobile LCP 15.8s.
  • Fixing needs compressed WebP renditions re-exported to the website-media.com CDN bucket (outward-facing write to a shared/WAF bucket — needs explicit authorization).
  • (2) staging TTFB 1.69s from the OOM-flapping container (dim 24 infra) — not theme-fixable and on its own threatens the <2.5s LCP budget.
  • Theme-side levers applied elsewhere; gate 7 green on staging is bounded by CDN-asset + infra work.
  • Recommend: optimize+re-export images (asset task) + infra TTFB fix, OR accept production-env perf will differ from staging.
