Session 2026-05-18 — Cron status check & init container investigation

2 min read

Session: Cron job — Status check, no new progress possible

Goal

Check whether the CronJob init container git issue has been resolved (pvs approval received?), and verify current cluster state.

Current State Assessment

CronJob smart-groceries-catalogue-scrape:

  • Still broken. Init container uses python:3.13-slim which lacks git.
  • Fix requires apt-get install -y git before the clone step — this is a Deployment-level change needing pvs approval.
  • DB remains at 0 products — scraper has never successfully completed a run since CronJob was restored.

MR !1 (perf/categories-n1-fix):

  • Still awaiting review per index.md (no update since May 15).
  • No action possible without pvs response.

Coles import:

  • Still blocked by Imperva WAF — no change in status.

Action Taken

Verified project state against index.md and last sessions. No new developments since the Cron root cause was identified on May 15. Both primary blockers (init container fix approval, MR review) are waiting on pvs.

Conclusion

No autonomous progress possible today. Project is blocked on two items requiring pvs input:

  1. CronJob init container — needs Deployment modification approval to install git in python:3.13-slim
  2. MR !1 review — N+1 fix + importer refactoring awaiting pvs merge decision

Next cron tick will re-check same items. If 48h passes without movement, escalate by adding explicit note to index.md for pvs visibility.
