BLOCKED Tasks Dependency Tree
Last Updated: 2025-12-06 (post Md.IX sync; 13 specs + 3 implementations = ~84+ tasks unblocked) Last Updated: 2025-12-06 (post Md.IX sync; 13 specs + 3 implementations = ~84+ tasks unblocked) Purpose: This document maps all BLOCKED tasks and their root causes to help teams prioritize unblocking work.
How to Use This Document
Before starting work on any BLOCKED task, check this tree to understand:
- What is the root blocker (external dependency, missing spec, staffing, etc.)
- What chain of tasks depends on it
- Which team/guild owns the root blocker
Legend
- Root Blocker — External/system cause (missing spec, staffing, disk space, etc.)
- Chained Blocked — Blocked by another BLOCKED task
- Module — Module/guild name

Previously Blocked Tasks (Now Unblocked)
CLI Compile Failures (RESOLVED)
+-- CLI-ATTEST-73-001: stella attest sign → UNBLOCKED
+-- CLI-ATTEST-73-002: stella attest verify → UNBLOCKED
+-- CLI-AIAI-31-001: Advisory AI CLI integration → UNBLOCKED
+-- CLI-AIRGAP-56-001: stella mirror create → UNBLOCKED
+-- CLI-401-007: Reachability evidence chain → UNBLOCKED
+-- CLI-401-021: Reachability chain CI/attestor → UNBLOCKED
Key Changes Made
- Created
src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/Extensions/StellaOpsTokenClientExtensions.cswith compatibility shims - Updated 8 service files to use new Auth.Client API pattern
- Fixed CommandFactory.cs method call argument order/types
- Updated PolicyDiagnostic model (Path instead of Line/Column/Span/Suggestion)
- Fixed CommandHandlers.cs static type and diagnostic rendering
8.2 BUILD VERIFICATION (2025-12-04)
Verification Date: 2025-12-04 Purpose: Verify current build status and identify remaining compile blockers
Findings
✅ CLI Build Status
- Status: CONFIRMED WORKING
- Build Result: 0 errors, 8 warnings (non-blocking)
- Command:
dotnet build src/Cli/StellaOps.Cli/StellaOps.Cli.csproj -p:NuGetAudit=false - Note: NuGet audit disabled due to mirror connectivity issues (not a code issue)
- Warnings:
- Obsolete API usage (AWS KMS, X509Certificate2, StellaOpsScopes)
- Nullable type warnings in OutputRenderer.cs
- Unused variable in CommandHandlers.cs
✅ Scanner Analyzer Builds
- PHP Analyzer: ✅ BUILDS (0 errors, 0 warnings)
- Java Analyzer: ✅ BUILDS (0 errors, 0 warnings)
- Ruby, Node, Python analyzers: ✅ ALL BUILD (verified via CLI dependency build)
Conclusion: Scanner analyzer "compile failures" mentioned in Section 6 and 8 are NOT actual compilation errors. The blockers are about:
- Missing specifications/fixtures (PHP analyzer bootstrap spec)
- Missing contracts (EntryTrace, SCANNER-SURFACE-01)
- Test environment issues (not build issues)
✅ Disk Space Status
- Current Usage: 78% (185GB used, 54GB available)
- Assessment: NOT A BLOCKER
- Note: AirGap "disk full" blockers (Section 5.1-5.3) may refer to different environment or are outdated
Updated Blocker Classification
The following items from Section 8 are specification/contract blockers, NOT compile blockers:
- SCANNER-ANALYZERS-PHP-27-001: Needs spec/fixtures, compiles fine
- SCANNER-ANALYZERS-JAVA-21-007: Builds successfully
- ANALYZERS-LANG-11-001: Blocked by test environment, not compilation
Recommended Actions:
- Remove "Scanner analyzer compile failures" from blocker descriptions
- Reclassify as "Scanner analyzer specification/contract gaps"
- Focus efforts on creating missing specs rather than fixing compile errors
