Context

Replaces #436 (shrunken scope after 2026-08-26 code-probe assessment). The escalation redesign (ADR-0152, #513) plus SKILL.md orchestrator instructions now cover the blocked-drive case, but ticket-writing is prose-only: TeaTracker#blocker_comment and #add_waiting_label (plugins/os-sdlc/lib/os_sdlc/runner/tea_tracker.rb:22-37) are dead code, and a true crash (no orchestrator turn) leaves the ticket silent. User direction 2026-08-26: progress history back to the ticket as work proceeds, and comments must never block the pipeline.

Tasks

  • Decide comment granularity: per agent increment vs per gate/terminal event (user leans per-increment plus a close comment with commit reference and summary)
  • Wire TeaTracker (or successor) into Implementation.fail!/escalate! and increment landings — best-effort: tracker unreachable or no real ticket (ad-hoc/investigative work) → warn or skip, never raise, never block the drive
  • Close path posts commit reference + summary on the worked ticket
  • Pull ticket comments (not just body) at implementation-open — verify current behavior first (#500 shipped body-at-open; confirm whether comments are included) and add --comments if absent
  • Tests for comment paths including unreachable-tracker and no-ticket fallbacks

Acceptance criteria

  • A failed or escalated implementation leaves a durable trace on its real ticket when the tracker is reachable
  • Tracker unavailability or ticketless work never fails or blocks a drive
  • Implementation-open brief includes existing ticket comments

Origin

  • Trigger: 2026-08-26 blocking-ticket assessment of #436; code-probe evidence that TeaTracker methods are never called and crash paths leave no ticket trace
  • Improvised this session: none
  • Chain: silent ticket on abort/crash ← ticket-writing delegated to orchestrator prose only (skills/implement/SKILL.md:108-113) ← TeaTracker wired nowhere (tea_tracker.rb:22-37) ← DESIGN (ADR-0131 era, predates ADR-0152 escalation redesign)
  • Root candidate: this ticket
