CodeQL on PRs 2361 and 2362 flags the fixture's implicit protocol floor. Require TLS 1.2 explicitly and test that same context; retain trusted, untrusted and wrong-host certificate controls without changing product TLS or documentation.
Contract-Neutral: Synthetic TLS test fixture only; no runtime or subsystem contract delta.
Change-source: pulse-maintainer
Use existing Unix and Windows token-file installers, verified HTTPS downloads and inspection before execution across setup, retarget, profile and cleanup examples. Exercise private files, all profile arguments, rejected TLS and failed downloads with synthetic guest-local fixtures.
Contract-Neutral: Documentation and executable documentation tests only; installer behaviour, privileges and runtime contracts are unchanged.
Change-source: pulse-maintainer
Prefer read-only API access, grant Audit to both PBS identities, keep tokens in private files and verify TLS before sending them. Exercise the documented recipes with synthetic tokens, HTTP failures and certificate rejection controls.
Contract-Neutral: Documentation and synthetic recipe checks only; no runtime API, installer, PBS identity or permission contract changes.
