Artifact Registry - Sprint W23: 2026-06-01 - 2026-06-05
## Artifact Registry - Sprint W23: 2026-06-01 – 2026-06-05
**Previous sprint:** https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/99 **Roadmap:** [docs/roadmap.md](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/roadmap.md)
---
## A note on this sprint
W22 ended stronger than it started. Container Local entered the week blocked and exits on track with 5 implementation steps merged and a 6th in review. S06 moved from spec to parallel implementation tracks. S01 implementation completed.
W23 is the first sprint under the Act 2 structure. The team composition and reporting lines are changing, but the sprint model stays the same. If your workstream assignment or pairing needs to change as a result of org changes, contact @crystalpoole.
One process note carrying into W23: the retrospective loop we started in W22 should produce its first outputs this Friday. Each workstream DRI posts what worked, what didn't, and one thing to change. Those notes feed directly into W24 planning.
> **PTO this week:** @10io out Wed–Fri. @dmeshcharakou out Thu–Fri. Plan accordingly — both have active workstream or milestone items this week. Note: @dmeshcharakou owns the Sev 3 Conan issue ([#561028](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/561028)) which is at risk ahead of the Jun 12 cut — confirm coverage before Thursday.

## Workstream Plan
| Workstream | Work Items | Spec(s) | DRI | Engineers | Status | Notes | Weekly Update |
|------------|------------|---------|-----|-----------|--------|-------|---------------|
| Foundational (Storage) | [#7 (closed)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/7) | [S06](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S06-storage-layer.md) | `@vespian_gl` | `@jdrpereira` (float) | :yellow_circle: At risk | Spec & plan 100%; implementation at step 5/22. Session-consistency model ([#102](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/102)) split into three MR stacks — edge-case tests (!351, !363, !352, !377, !378), S06 spec (!375, !376), and ADR amendments ([handbook !19616](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/merge_requests/19616)) — all merged or in review; #102 closes once they land. Next: S06 real-backend implementation + MR feedback. LabKit storage-driver abstraction under discussion (Andrew/Elliot). | |
| Foundational (Observavility - Logging) | [#111](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/111) | [S03 Phase 1](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S03-observability.md) | `@suleimiahmed` | `@suleimiahmed` | :green_circle: On track | Phase 1 (Logging) Implementation/Plan ongoing | - |
| Background Jobs | [#27](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/27) | [S27](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S27-background-jobs-foundation.md) | `@suleimiahmed` | `@suleimiahmed` | :red_circle: Blocked | Spec and plan complete. Implementation blocked | Implementation Blocked By Redis Config Pattern change in Labkit https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/labkit/-/merge_requests/511. |
| Container Local | [#19](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/19) | [S12](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S12-container-oci-local.md) | `@hswimelar` | `@adie.po` `@suleimiahmed` | :green_circle: On track | Steps 1–5 merged. Step 6 dispatcher ([!324 (merged)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/merge_requests/324)) in review — pipeline green, blocked on unresolved discussions. Steps 8+ gated on [S03](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S03-observability.md) logging and [S08](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S08-authentication.md) auth step MRs. | |
| Maven Local | [#16 (closed)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/16) [#21](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/21) | [S10](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S10-maven-local.md) | `@mkhalifa3` | `@sylviashen` | :red_circle: Blocked | Blocked on OCI core per [delivery sequencing](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/dev/development-model.md#delivery-sequencing). Implementation ready to start when S06 Step 10 lands. | |
| npm Local | [#22 (closed)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/22) | [S11](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S11-npm-local.md) | `@dmeshcharakou` | `@pskorupa` | :red_circle: Blocked | Spec and plan complete. Blocked on OCI core per delivery sequencing. Implementation ready to start when S06 Step 10 lands. | |
| Conformance Tools | https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/registry-conformance/-/work_items/28 | [Conformance S07](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/registry-conformance/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S07-oci-protocol.md) | `@radbatnag` | `@jdrpereira` (float) | :yellow_circle: At risk | 4 of 25 steps in dev/review. Steps 4 ([!43](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/registry-conformance/-/merge_requests/43)) and 5 ([!45](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/registry-conformance/-/merge_requests/45)) still open as of W22 end. npm S06 plan in progress. MR throughput across 25 steps is the risk — needs process resolution on agentic mr-watch prefix. | |
| Frontend | [gitlab-org/gitlab#591887](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/work_items/591887) | [S25](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/blob/main/docs/specs/S25-frontend-integration.md) | `@rchanila` | `@fmccawley` | :yellow_circle: At risk | ADR at 90% ([handbook!19696](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/merge_requests/19696) has `requested_changes` status — not yet mergeable). New roles dependency ([#593455](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/work_items/593455)) emerged W22 — scope impact on S25 spec TBD. | |
**This week's expected outputs** (MRs merged or ready for review by Friday):
- [ ] Foundational (Storage): **S06 Steps 5 and 11** merged — confirms the parallel track model is working
- [ ] Foundational (Storage): [**#102**](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/102)** session upload consistency** decision closed — this is a design decision, not ongoing refinement
- [ ] Foundational (Background Jobs): **S27 Step 1** MR open
- [ ] Container Local: **Step 6** ([!324 (merged)](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/merge_requests/324)) discussions resolved and merged — pipeline is already green
- [ ] Container Local: **Step 7** MR open
- [ ] Container Local: **S03 and S08 dependency status** confirmed — owners and current state documented so steps 8+ have a clear gate date
- [ ] Maven Local: **Implementation step breakdown** confirmed and ready to execute on short notice
- [ ] npm Local: **Implementation step breakdown** confirmed and ready to execute on short notice; continue mr-watch phase
- [ ] Conformance: **Step 1** (!39) already merged; **Steps 4, 5** (!43, !45) merge this week; **Step 2** MR open; **npm S06 plan** merged; **agentic mr-watch prefix** process resolved
- [ ] Frontend: **ADR** ([handbook!19696](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/merge_requests/19696)) requested changes addressed and merged — currently has `requested_changes` status; **new roles dependency** ([#593455](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/work_items/593455)) assessed for S25 scope impact
**Explicitly not expected this sprint:**
- [ ] OCI handlers (Step 8+) — gated on S03 logging and S08 auth step MRs landing
- [ ] Maven or npm implementation steps — gated on S06 Step 10
- [ ] S06 Stage 2 real drivers (S3/GCS) — follows Stage 1 completion
- [ ] S25 Frontend spec — gated on ADR merge

## Retrospective Notes
_(First full retrospective cycle — DRIs post Friday)_
**What worked:**
**What didn't:**
**Process changes to consider:**
---
## Changes From Last Week
- S01 implementation complete — @suleimiahmed moves to S27 implementation W23
- Container Local unblocked: entered W22 :red_circle: blocked, exits :green_circle: on track with steps 1–5 merged
- S06 moved from spec to parallel implementation tracks with @cwoolley-gitlab (Step 11) and @olaoluro (Step 5)
- Conformance workstream status updated to :yellow_circle: at risk due to MR throughput across 25 steps
- Frontend: new roles dependency ([#593455](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/work_items/593455)) emerged W22 as additional blocker alongside ADR
- Act 2 restructuring takes effect W23 — workstream assignments reconfirmed Monday
- **S03 logging complete — [#111](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry/-/work_items/111) closed Jun 4; all 3 steps merged; OCI handler gate cleared**
- **S08 auth stub fully merged (5/5 steps) — Container Local steps 8+ unblocked**
- **Container Local ahead of plan: Steps 6, 7, and 8 all merged W23** (plan expected Step 6 merged + Step 7 opened)
- **Frontend ADR ([handbook!19696](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/merge_requests/19696)) merged Jun 8** — @jdrpereira bypassed blocking approval
- **S04 Step 3 unblocked Jun 4** after !155 (LabKit infra config) landed; to proceed W24
- **Conformance foundation at 9/25 steps complete, 7 in flight** — npm S06 plan in progress
- **npm local plan revised** (!383) to reflect merged foundation state
- **S27 remains blocked** on LabKit !511 (Redis config pattern); 0/7 implementation steps started
---
## Decisions Made This Week
- **Container Local steps 9–15 confirmed runnable on stub** — S06 storage backend does not block them; only Step 9 persistence commit needs the real BlobStore CAS. Decision: scaffold Step 9 against stubs now so the storage swap is mechanical once S06 lands. ([@hswimelar](https://gitlab.com/hswimelar), [@jdrpereira](https://gitlab.com/jdrpereira), Jun 8)
- **npm Local to start before Maven Local in W24** — @jdrpereira advised prioritizing npm over Maven given shared capacity constraints. Both confirmed 🟢 to kick off W24. ([@jdrpereira](https://gitlab.com/jdrpereira), Jun 8)
- **Frontend ADR unblocked by bypass** — @jdrpereira bypassed the stalled approval on [handbook!19696](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/merge_requests/19696) and merged Jun 8. S25 spec can now proceed, pending role management resolution. ([@jdrpereira](https://gitlab.com/jdrpereira), Jun 8)
- **S06 consistency model (#102) decision path confirmed** — three MR stacks (edge-case tests, spec adjustments, ADR amendments) all merged or in review; #102 closes once they land. Real-backend implementation begins W24. ([@vespian_gl](https://gitlab.com/vespian_gl), Jun 7)

<summary>Duo Queries</summary>
MRs Merged This Week
```
Walk git log --first-parent main between 2026-06-01 and 2026-06-06 in the project
gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry. List all MRs merged in that window with title, author,
and merge date. Filter to feat:, fix:, and docs: prefixes only. Add a single line at the
end: "Other changes: N merged" covering chore:, ci:, revert:, and bot-authored dependency
bumps.
```
Review Queue
```
List all open, non-draft merge requests in gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry that have been
open for more than 2 days. Exclude Renovate/bot-authored MRs. Include title, author,
created date, and days open. Sort oldest first. State the oldest open MR at the end.
```
Spec Coverage
```
Read the file docs/specs/README.md in the repository gitlab-org/ops/artifact-registry.
List all specs with their current status (Planned, Draft, Approved, Implemented). Count
how many are in each status. Note any specs that have open MRs in review but are still
listed as Planned in the README.
```
Agentic Workflow Adoption
```
Read the async update threads posted as comments on issue {SPRINT_ISSUE_URL} this week.
For each workstream, report which phases of the agentic workflow were used
(spec-author / planner / implement-step / mr-watch). Note any workstreams that did not
report agentic workflow usage.
```
Workstream Status
```
Read the async update threads posted as comments on issue {SPRINT_ISSUE_URL} this week.
For each workstream, summarize: completion percentage, current status emoji, and any
blockers mentioned.
```
Weekly Summary
```
Based on the sprint issue {SPRINT_ISSUE_URL}, write a one-paragraph Slack summary for
#f_artifact-registry covering: MRs merged (feat/fix/docs count + other count), workstreams
on track vs. at risk vs. blocked, active blocker count, and the single biggest risk or win
this week. Keep it under 60 words. End with: Sprint W24: {link}
