Artifact: WIP Unblock Triage — Platform Team Weekly Blockers
A weekly blocker list triaged into personally-unblock / delegate / escalate, each with a named owner and reason -- exercises co-09. Everline and every name here are fictional; every item is an illustrative, constructed example.
| Blocked item | Owner | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Sam's migration script blocked on a schema question only Priya can answer (pre-dates the team). | Priya, personally | Only Priya has the historical context; this is a 10-minute answer, not worth delegating. |
| Alex's ingestion service blocked on a security review with no ETA from the Security team. | Priya, escalate | Outside the team's control; needs manager-to-manager escalation to get a review date. |
| Maya's design note blocked on Jordan's availability to pair-review it. | Delegate to Jordan directly | A scheduling problem between two ICs; Priya doesn't need to be in the loop, just needs to confirm it's moving. |
| Chris's dashboard work blocked on an ambiguous product spec. | Delegate to Chris | Chris can resolve this directly with the product manager; Priya adding herself would slow it down, not speed it up. |
| Dana's staging environment blocked on a flaky test suite nobody owns. | Priya, personally | No current owner and it's been blocking three people intermittently for two weeks -- worth Priya taking it to force a resolution. |
