Release Blocker Review with Claude Code: Artifact Delivery
A production playbook for release blocker review in cross-industry operations using Claude Code: artifact delivery, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Engineering managers preparing release decisions
The problem
Engineering managers preparing release decisions need release blocker review to run repeatedly against tickets, CI results, incidents, and launch criteria. In cross-industry operations, the pain is not one good answer; it is repeatability, auditability, exception handling, and evidence that survives handoff.
Implementation path
Require Claude Code to write customer-visible files under /skill/output/artifacts, validate filenames and sizes, then return signed artifact metadata in argo.result.v1.
Tradeoffs and failure modes
Artifact policy constrains file output, but customers receive files that are durable, typed, and safe to download. For release blocker review, the practical test is whether a second run can be debugged, retried, and consumed by a product without reading the raw agent transcript.
