shankar0123 f6fa898b9a ci-pipeline-cleanup Phase 0: baseline + frozen decisions + Bundle II revisions
Bundle: ci-pipeline-cleanup, Phase 0.

Captures all 12 baseline measurements at HEAD c48a82c4 (tag v2.0.66):
- ci.yml shape (1488 lines, 53 named steps, 22 regression-guard steps)
- 4 Dockerfiles in repo
- 24/24 migration up/down balance
- 136 OpenAPI operationIds vs 149 router Register calls (13-route gap
  for Phase 9 root-cause)
- 11 vendor sidecars + 1 always-on nginx in deploy/docker-compose.test.yml
- 19 status checks per push (target after cleanup: 7)

Locks the 14 Phase-0 frozen decisions in cowork/ci-pipeline-cleanup/
frozen-decisions.md. Two of them deliberately revise Bundle II
decisions:
- Decision 0.4 revises Bundle II 0.9 (vendor matrix collapse)
- Decision 0.5 revises Bundle II 0.4 (Windows IIS matrix deletion)

Both revisions are documented with rationale + preservation note in
cowork/ci-pipeline-cleanup/decisions-revised.md. Verified failure-log
evidence cited for the Windows matrix (CI run 25183374742) +
verified source-grep evidence for the t.Log-only vendor-edge tests
(115 of 116).

Two operator-on-workstation deliverables explicitly deferred to
their respective Phases:
- Live SA1019 site count (Phase 3 pre-flight)
- RAM headroom on prototype branch with collapsed vendor-e2e (Phase 5
  pre-merge gate)

No code changes in this commit — Phase 0 is documentation + measurement
+ frozen-decision lock-in only.

# CI Pipeline Cleanup — Frozen Decisions
> 14 frozen decisions confirmed at Phase 0. Each subsequent Phase references the decision number it implements.
## 0.1 — Trigger model
Three-tier split, no mixing:
- **On push/PR to master:** blocking, fast, every check earns its keep, target <10 min wall-clock.
- **Daily cron + workflow_dispatch:** `security-deep-scan.yml` as-is; slow scans, best-effort, never blocks.
- **On tag push (`v*`):** `release.yml` as-is; cross-platform binaries, ghcr.io push, SLSA provenance.
## 0.2 — Extracted-script location
`scripts/ci-guards/` at repo root. Operator runs `bash scripts/ci-guards/<id>.sh` locally. Contract documented in `scripts/ci-guards/README.md`.
## 0.3 — Coverage threshold YAML format
`.github/coverage-thresholds.yml`. Top-level keys are package paths; each entry has `floor:` (integer pct) + `why:` (multi-line string for load-bearing context). Bash step uses Python (already on the runner) to read the YAML — no `yq` dependency.
## 0.4 — Vendor matrix collapse policy (REVISES Bundle II decision 0.9)
Single `deploy-vendor-e2e` job replaces 12-job matrix. Bundle II decision 0.9 said "Each vendor e2e gets its own GitHub Actions matrix job" — this revision recognizes that 115/116 vendor-edge tests are `t.Log` placeholders, so per-vendor status-check granularity is fake signal. Skip-detection guard partially restores per-vendor visibility (SKIP messages name the vendor). Documented as deliberate revision in `cowork/ci-pipeline-cleanup/decisions-revised.md`.
## 0.5 — Windows IIS validation deletion (REVISES Bundle II decision 0.4)
Delete `deploy-vendor-e2e-windows` matrix entirely. Bundle II decision 0.4 said "the IIS e2e suite runs on a separate Windows-runner CI matrix job" — this revision recognizes that (a) the matrix can't physically work on `windows-latest` (Docker not started in Windows-containers mode; `bridge` driver missing on Windows Docker), and (b) all 16 IIS + WinCertStore tests are `t.Log` placeholders. Move validation to `docs/connector-iis.md::Operator validation playbook` per Bundle II decision 0.14's third criterion. The `windows-iis-test` sidecar stays in `deploy/docker-compose.test.yml` for operator local use.
## 0.6 — Skip-detection guard semantics + EXPECTED_SKIPS allowlist
After `go test -tags integration -run 'VendorEdge_'`, count `^--- SKIP:` lines. Allowlist: 6 JavaKeystore tests in `vendor_e2e_phase3_to_13_test.go` that legitimately t.Log without sidecar. Allowlist file at `scripts/ci-guards/vendor-e2e-skip-allowlist.txt`, one test name per line.
## 0.7 — SA1019 closure approach
Close each site individually with byte-equivalence tests where the deprecated API was load-bearing. Then flip `continue-on-error: true``false` in the SAME commit. Do NOT split — shipping the gate without closing sites would fail CI on master. Live verification: `staticcheck ./... 2>&1 | grep -c SA1019` returns 0 BEFORE flipping the gate.
## 0.8 — Image-and-supply-chain placement
Separate top-level job (not steps in `go-build-and-test`). Two reasons: (a) digest-validity needs network egress to multiple registries (Docker Hub, ghcr.io, mcr.microsoft.com), bundling into go-build blocks Go tests on registry latency. (b) `docker build` is parallel to Go tests; isolating lets it run concurrently.
## 0.9 — Coverage PR-comment provider
Default: lightweight self-hosted action that posts a per-PR comment via `gh pr comment`. Avoids paid SaaS. Operator can swap to Codecov/Coveralls later.
## 0.10 — Docker build smoke scope
Build all 4 Dockerfiles in the repo: `Dockerfile`, `Dockerfile.agent`, `deploy/test/f5-mock-icontrol/Dockerfile`, `deploy/test/libest/Dockerfile`. The test-sidecar Dockerfiles are load-bearing for vendor-e2e — a syntax error there silently breaks the e2e suite. Tagged `:smoke` and discarded.
## 0.11 — OpenAPI ↔ handler parity exception YAML
NEW `api/openapi-handler-exceptions.yaml`. Schema: `documented_exceptions:` list of `{route, why}` entries. The 13-route gap at HEAD is root-caused in Phase 9; most are likely health probes / metrics / SCEP-EST-OCSP wire endpoints that legitimately have no operationId.
## 0.12 — Branch-protection-rule update timing
Operator updates GitHub branch-protection rules in Phase 13 AFTER the new pipeline ships and runs green on a feature branch + on the first push to master. Required-checks list changes from 19 → 7 entries. Operator action only — agent cannot do this.
## 0.13 — Make-target naming for new operator-side scripts
- `make verify` (existing) — required pre-commit; gofmt + vet + lint + tests
- `make verify-deploy` (new) — optional pre-push; digest-validity + OpenAPI parity + docker build smoke (server + agent only — fast subset for local)
- `make verify-docs` (new) — required pre-tag; QA-doc Part-count + seed-count drift
## 0.14 — RAM headroom verification methodology
Phase 0 deliverable. Operator creates `prototype/ci-pipeline-cleanup-vendor-collapse` branch, runs the collapsed `deploy-vendor-e2e` job once, captures peak RSS via `docker stats --no-stream` snapshots every 30 sec, records max in this baseline doc. If max > 12 GB (75% of 16 GB ceiling), fall back to bucketed matrix (3 jobs × ~4 sidecars). If max ≤ 12 GB, single-job collapse is approved.
