What landed
- The partial index and 2-second pool timeout now run in all four regions.
- The 80% pool warning and review checklist are live. Five of six outage actions are closed.
- Dispatch API p95 fell from 205 ms to 188 ms after a redundant permission lookup was removed.
What needs attention
The relative-latency gate is implemented but unmerged. It needed a second release-team reviewer, moving the due date from September 5 to September 12. Until it ships, the pipeline can still miss regressions that depend on data volume.
Release lead: name the second reviewer by September 9.
Priya will run the gate review on September 12. If it fails, reopen the webhook rollout date before the next update.
Next week
Validate the gate against the outage query, then decide whether webhook rollout can start on September 22. The rollout date stays tentative until that review.
