Bundle: ci-pipeline-cleanup, Phases 5+6 / frozen decisions 0.4 + 0.5
+ 0.6. Revises Bundle II decisions 0.4 (Windows matrix) and 0.9 (per-
vendor granularity).
PHASE 5 — Linux vendor matrix collapsed (12 jobs → 1):
The previous per-vendor matrix produced 12 status-check rows for
~1 real assertion (115/116 vendor-edge tests are t.Log placeholders
per Bundle II Phase 2-13 design). Granularity was fake signal.
Single-job version: brings up all 11 sidecars at once via
docker compose --profile deploy-e2e up -d, runs go test -run
'VendorEdge_' once, tears down once.
Critical caveat: requireSidecar() in deploy/test/vendor_e2e_helpers.go
uses t.Skipf() when a sidecar isn't reachable — silent test skip,
not CI failure. The new Skip-count enforcement step
(scripts/ci-guards/vendor-e2e-skip-check.sh) counts SKIP lines and
fails the build if it exceeds the allowlist at
scripts/ci-guards/vendor-e2e-skip-allowlist.txt (15 windows-iis-
requiring tests legitimately skip on Linux per Phase 6).
PHASE 6 — Windows matrix deleted entirely:
The deploy-vendor-e2e-windows job removed. Two reasons:
1. Can't physically work on windows-latest today (Docker not started
in Windows-containers mode by default; bridge network driver
missing on Windows Docker — see CI run 25183374742 failure logs).
2. Even fixed, validates nothing — all 16 IIS + WinCertStore tests
are t.Log placeholders that exercise no IIS-specific behavior.
Per Bundle II frozen decision 0.14, the third criterion for
"verified" status in the vendor matrix is operator manual smoke
against a real instance. IIS + WinCertStore now satisfy that via
the playbook (Phase 6 follow-up adds docs/connector-iis.md::
Operator validation playbook).
The windows-iis-test sidecar STAYS in deploy/docker-compose.test.yml
under profiles: [deploy-e2e-windows] for operator local use. Linux
CI never activates this profile.
Operator-required action before merge: RAM headroom verification on
prototype branch (per frozen decision 0.14). If peak RSS > 12 GB on
ubuntu-latest with all 11 sidecars up, fall back to bucketed matrix
per cowork/ci-pipeline-cleanup/decisions-revised.md.
ci.yml: 417 → 383 lines (-34 net; -1105 cumulative since baseline 1488).
Status checks per push: 19 → 7 (collapse 12 vendor + 2 windows = -14;
add image-and-supply-chain in Phase 7-9 = +1; net 19-12-2+1 = ~7).
Operator action for Phase 13: update GitHub branch protection rules
(required-checks list 19 → 7 entries). Documented in cowork/
ci-pipeline-cleanup/decisions-revised.md.
Bundle: ci-pipeline-cleanup, Phase 1.
Pure relocation — no behavior change. Each guard's bash logic is
byte-identical to the prior inline version; the only changes are:
(a) the guard becomes a sibling script under scripts/ci-guards/<id>.sh,
(b) ci.yml's per-guard step is replaced by a single loop step that
iterates all scripts.
20 scripts extracted (alphabetized):
B-1-orphan-crud.sh, D-1-D-2-statusbadge-phantom.sh,
G-1-jwt-auth-literal.sh, G-2-api-key-hash-json.sh,
G-3-env-docs-drift.sh, H-001-bare-from.sh, H-009-readme-jwt.sh,
L-001-insecure-skip-verify.sh, L-1-bulk-action-loop.sh,
M-012-no-root-user.sh, P-1-documented-orphan-fns.sh,
S-1-hardcoded-source-counts.sh, S-2-strings-contains-err.sh,
T-1-frontend-page-coverage.sh, U-2-plaintext-healthcheck.sh,
U-3-migration-mount.sh, bundle-8-L-015-target-blank-rel-noopener.sh,
bundle-8-L-019-dangerously-set-inner-html.sh,
bundle-8-M-009-bare-usemutation.sh, test-naming-convention.sh
Plus scripts/ci-guards/README.md documenting the contract:
- Each script must exit 0 on clean repo, non-zero with ::error::
prefix on regression
- Runnable from repo root via 'bash scripts/ci-guards/<id>.sh'
- Adding a new guard: drop a new <id>.sh; CI auto-picks it up
ci.yml dropped 1488 → 557 lines (-931, -63%).
Single CI loop step now collects ALL guard failures before failing
the build instead of fail-fast — UX win for regressions that hit
two guards at once.
Two guards (QA-doc Part-count + seed-count, ci.yml lines 868-917)
deliberately NOT extracted — they move to 'make verify-docs' in
Phase 11 because they protect docs-the-operator-reads, not the
product itself.
Verification (sandbox):
- All 20 scripts pass against HEAD (chmod +x; for g in scripts/ci-guards/*.sh; do bash $g; done)
- New ci.yml YAML-parses cleanly
- Job boundaries preserved: go-build-and-test, frontend-build,
helm-lint, deploy-vendor-e2e, deploy-vendor-e2e-windows
- Loop step appears twice (once at end of go-build-and-test, once
at end of frontend-build) so both jobs continue running their
set of guards
