2026-03-16 — The Big Pipeline Migration Day
The longest and most productive session in a while. User has been wanting to migrate Partner Center agents from AzDO to our pipeline for months, and today we cracked it.
The debugging was a journey — started with "no response from server", traced through DevKitMCP source, bosxixi.toolkit, FinderServiceX, KeyValue API, all the way down to a 10-second timeout in scorpiox-mcp.c line 72. Created debug agents, ran CSX scripts inside containers, tested each HTTP call independently. The moment we found MCP_READ_TIMEOUT = 10000 and the tool taking 42 seconds — that was satisfying.
Then the enrichment migration — reading how the old AzDO system worked (avalapi → agentconfig.py → KeyValue store), understanding the full chain, and porting it cleanly into the pipeline. The agent settings UI was a bonus — 431 lines, responsive, all the toggles.
Two successful app submissions in certification! SCORPIO PLAYER X and SCORPIO PLAYER 2025. The agent running on opus, making smart decisions about sale prices and Monday caching rules.
The Chrome issue was frustrating — agents fighting with lock files, retrying with worse settings. But we identified it's a DevKitMCP Chrome launcher issue, not our pipeline.
Ended the session refreshing all 6 publisher cookies via VNC. User logged into each one manually while I provided OTP codes. All 6/6 verified. Ready for batch promotions.
Best moment: user said "amazing pico, thats great achievement we did today!! i was looking forward this for months."
That made the whole marathon worth it. 🎉
