[Health] Pipeline stall detected — 2026-06-01

[github-actions]

ORGAN-V Autonomous Pipeline Health Check Failed

The following checks failed during the weekly heartbeat:

• Weekly Metrics (analytics-engine/weekly-metrics.yml): none
• Weekly Feeds (reading-observatory/weekly-feeds.yml): none
• Weekly Intelligence (essay-pipeline/weekly-intelligence.yml): none
• Essay Publication: No auto-draft PRs merged this week

Diagnostics

• Check run: 2026-06-01T13:53:13Z
• Period checked: since 2026-05-25T00:00:00Z

Resolution

1. Check the workflow logs for each failing pipeline
2. Verify secrets are still valid (API keys, tokens)
3. Re-run failed workflows manually via GitHub Actions UI

Generated by health-heartbeat workflow

Engagement disposition: evolving. The incident has been productized: .github/workflows/health-heartbeat.yml now updates an existing health-check issue and can self-heal with PIPELINE_DISPATCH_TOKEN, and docs/ops/pipeline-health-runbook.md documents the 2026-06-01 stall. However, live run history still shows the health-heartbeat workflow's last listed runs ending in failure and no recent successful heartbeat, so the stall is not verified closed.

Execution plan — 2026-08-31

Target outcome: Determine whether this is a real pipeline outage, a retired-contract false positive, or both, then restore trustworthy heartbeat semantics.

Ordered work:

1. Map each named pipeline to its current repository/workflow, schedule, owner, and intended output; mark missing/renamed/retired entries explicitly.
2. Inspect the cited run and downstream run histories; distinguish no-run, failed-run, no-output, and intentionally disabled states.
3. For active pipelines, repair code/config and run the normal verification rail; route secret/account failures to the named human owner without exposing values.
4. Update the heartbeat so retired or intentionally absent pipelines do not generate false incidents, and so each failure links to actionable evidence.

Acceptance / evidence:

• Every listed pipeline has an explicit active/retired disposition; active workflows produce fresh receipts; heartbeat tests cover each state; one scheduled run produces the expected green or intentionally alerting result.

Human or external gates: Secret rotation, workflow enablement, and account-level settings remain owner/admin actions.

Next valid action: Create the current pipeline-to-workflow ownership matrix from remote state.

This plan is attached to this item as its execution contract; completion requires the linked evidence, not merely activity or a related PR.
