# CURRENT_TASK.md **Task:** Build **Escalation Mode** — the wedge for ResolutionFlow's GTM (first paying-customer push). When a junior tech escalates a FlowPilot session, the senior tech sees structured handoff context in seconds instead of running a 5-minute verbal "tell me what you tried" call. **Status:** ✅ **Engineering complete.** Browser QA passed (2026-04-30). Branch `feat/escalation-metric-endpoint`; PR #155 ready to mark ready-for-review. **Plan:** [`docs/plans/2026-04-27-escalation-mode-wedge-design.md`](../docs/plans/2026-04-27-escalation-mode-wedge-design.md). Reviewed by `/office-hours`, `/plan-eng-review`, `/plan-design-review`, `/codex review`. Eng + Design CLEARED. **Test plan artifact:** [`docs/plans/2026-04-27-escalation-mode-wedge-test-plan.md`](../docs/plans/2026-04-27-escalation-mode-wedge-test-plan.md). ## What's done (all sessions combined) All plan items complete.

Untested live (low priority, can verify post-consolidation): race-condition toast (needs second user in same account). ## Two-metric framing — read this before quoting numbers to anyone The in-product endpoint measures *post-claim time-to-first-action*. The "minutes recovered" sales claim is `manual_baseline − in_product_metric`. Manual baseline comes from the founder's stopwatch on the next 5 escalations. Don't roll the in-product number alone into "minutes recovered" — that's the apples-to-oranges miscount Codex caught. ## Kill-switch Week 8: if 0 of 3 pilots produce a verifiable hours-saved-per-week number above 1.0, revisit the wedge.
