Several projects are experiencing build failures due to issues downloading the Gradle wrapper. This prevents dependency resolution and blocks development workflows, leaving developers unable to proceed with their work.

“Baseline result The repository was red before any LCM changes . No dependency bumps, CI changes, commits, or pull request were created. Blocker: Maven cannot resolve the Spring Boot parent Command from the repository README: Reproducing output: Runtime observed: The build could not start because dependency resolution failed. This must be confirmed in an unrestricted runner before any dependency change can be attributed safely. Generated by Claude Code”
“Baseline result The repository was red before any LCM changes . No dependency bumps, CI changes, commits, or pull request were created. Blocker: Gradle cannot resolve the Foojay toolchain resolver plugin Commands from the repository instructions: The wrapper generation command failed, so the test and plugin build commands were not reached. Reproducing output: Runtime observed: Temurin 21.0.12 LTS and Gradle 8.11.1. Hygiene finding The README advertises Apache 2.0 and links to LICENSE , but no LI”
“Baseline result The repository was red before any LCM changes . No dependency bumps, CI changes, commits, or pull request were created. Blocker: Gradle cannot resolve the Kotlin JVM plugin Commands matching the existing CI workflow: The first command failed, so the build command was not reached. Reproducing output: Runtime observed: This must be resolved or confirmed in an unrestricted runner before an LCM bump can be attributed safely. Generated by Claude Code”
“Baseline result The repository was red before any changes were made . Per the LCM gate, no dependency bumps, CI or hygiene changes, commits, or pull request were created. Blocker: Gradle wrapper distribution cannot be downloaded Command: Reproducing output: The next required command was not run because the test command failed first: Runtime observed: The repository declares Java 21, but resolution could not proceed because the Gradle wrapper download failed first.

“An LCM (lifecycle management) maintenance pass established a build baseline before making any changes. The baseline is RED , so the pass stopped: no dependency bumps were applied and no pull request was opened, because pre existing breakage cannot be distinguished from breakage introduced by a bump. Repairs are deliberately left out of scope here — they need an owner decision on intended behaviour. How the baseline was established This repository has no CI workflow ( .github/workflows/ does not”
