+# As a developer, the CI auto-ticket-creation pattern is fully removed
+
+## Description
+
+**What**: Remove the CI workflow job, scripts, test files, and example config related to automatic ticket creation on CI failure.
+**Why**: CI doesn't reliably have access to tk (plugin dependency), and failures are already caught by ci-status.sh --wait. The auto-created tickets are noise requiring a dedicated cleanup script.
+**Scope**:
+- IN: Delete ci-create-failure-bug.sh, bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh, tests/scripts/test-bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh; remove create-failure-bug job from .github/workflows/ci.yml and examples/ci.example.yml
+- OUT: Advisory hooks (check-validation-failures.sh, commit-failure-tracker.sh) — these inform but don't auto-create tickets
+
+## Done Definitions
+
+- When this story is complete, the create-failure-bug job no longer exists in .github/workflows/ci.yml
+  ← Satisfies: "The create-failure-bug job no longer exists in .github/workflows/ci.yml"
+- When this story is complete, ci-create-failure-bug.sh is deleted from the repository
+  ← Satisfies: "The ci-create-failure-bug.sh script is deleted"
+- When this story is complete, bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh and its test file are deleted from the repository
+  ← Satisfies: "The bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh cleanup script is deleted"
+- When this story is complete, the example CI workflow no longer includes the create-failure-bug job
+  ← Satisfies: "The example CI workflow (examples/ci.example.yml) no longer includes the create-failure-bug job"
+- When this story is complete, existing CI failure detection (ci-status.sh --wait) continues to work unchanged
+  ← Satisfies: "Existing CI failure detection (ci-status.sh --wait) continues to work unchanged"
+- Unit tests written and passing for all new or modified logic
+
+## Considerations
+
+- [Testing] Test file tests/scripts/test-bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh must be deleted alongside the script
+- [Reliability] Confirmed no other scripts invoke ci-create-failure-bug.sh or bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh

+# Update project docs to reflect CI ticket removal
+
+## Description
+
+**What**: Update CLAUDE.md rule #3 to remove the reference to auto-created tracking issues, since the CI auto-creation pattern has been removed.
+**Why**: The rule currently states "Tracking issues are auto-created by commit-failure-tracker hook" — with CI auto-creation removed, this must be reworded to reflect that agents are responsible for creating tracking issues manually when needed.
+**Scope**:
+- IN: Update CLAUDE.md rule #3 in "Never Do These" section
+- OUT: No changes to advisory hooks or other documentation
+
+## Done Definitions
+
+- When this story is complete, CLAUDE.md rule #3 no longer references auto-creation of tracking issues
+  ← Satisfies: "CLAUDE.md rule #3 is updated to remove the auto-creation reference"
+
+## Considerations
+
+- [Maintainability] Ensure the updated rule still conveys the intent that failures should be tracked — just not auto-created by CI

+# sprint-next-batch.sh treats tk dep blockers as file conflicts, preventing non-overlapping tasks from batching

+
+## Description
+
+When sprint-next-batch.sh plans a batch, tasks blocked by tk dep are excluded even when they have zero file overlap with the blocking task. In this sprint (dso-uu13), dso-6r3o (CI workflow/script deletions) and dso-fqye (CLAUDE.md update) touch completely different files but were split into separate batches because dso-fqye depends on dso-6r3o.
+
+The script should distinguish between:
+- **File-level conflicts**: tasks that modify the same files (must be serialized)
+- **Logical ordering**: tasks with tk dep relationships but no file overlap (can be parallelized)
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- Tasks with tk dep blockers but zero file overlap are included in the same batch
+- Tasks with tk dep blockers AND file overlap remain serialized
+- Existing file-overlap detection continues to work

 Because our scripts are in a plugin, CI does not have access to tk to create tickets. Remove any functionality intended to create a ticket as part of CI

+## Context
+When CI fails, `ci-create-failure-bug.sh` auto-creates bug tickets via the `create-failure-bug` workflow job. Because DSO is a plugin and CI doesn't reliably have access to `tk`, these tickets are noise — CI failures are already caught by the existing `ci-status.sh --wait` workflow step, which agents check after pushing. The noise was bad enough that a dedicated cleanup script (`bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh`) was created to delete the auto-created duplicates.
+
+## Success Criteria
+- The `create-failure-bug` job no longer exists in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
+- The `ci-create-failure-bug.sh` script is deleted
+- The `bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh` cleanup script is deleted
+- The example CI workflow (`examples/ci.example.yml`) no longer includes the `create-failure-bug` job
+- CLAUDE.md rule #3 ("Tracking issues are auto-created") is updated to remove the auto-creation reference
+- Existing CI failure detection (`ci-status.sh --wait`) continues to work unchanged
+- After the next CI failure post-merge, no auto-created bug tickets appear in `.tickets/` — verified by checking `git log` for commits from `ci-create-failure-bug.sh`
+
+## Dependencies
+None
+
+## Approach
+Clean removal of `ci-create-failure-bug.sh`, the CI workflow job that calls it, the example workflow job, the `bulk-delete-stale-tickets.sh` cleanup script, and the CLAUDE.md rule referencing auto-creation.

 ### Never Do These
 1. **Never close tasks before CI passes** — fix if you broke it; create tracking issue if pre-existing.
 2. **Never use `--no-verify`** without human approval. Pre-commit hooks: format-check (Ruff), lint (Ruff/MyPy). If hooks fail: `make format` for formatting; fix lint manually.
-3. **Tracking issues are auto-created** by commit-failure-tracker hook. Create manually for failures validation won't catch. Duplicates OK; gaps not.
+3. **Create tracking issues** for ALL failures discovered, even "infrastructure" ones
 4. **Never use `app/` in paths when CWD is `app/`** — use `src/`, `tests/` directly. When CWD is the repo root, `app/` prefix is required. `.claude/` is always at the repo root; plugin scripts are at `plugins/dso/scripts/`. (This is this project's convention; `app/` is configured via `paths.app_dir` in `.claude/dso-config.conf` and is project-specific, not a universal plugin requirement.)
 5. **Never skip issue validation after creating issues or adding deps** — run `validate-issues.sh --quick --terse`.
 6. **Never create more than 5 sub-agents at a time** — batch into groups of 5.
