* Make release dry-run diagnostics fail closed
Select the installed Chromium project with retries disabled, replace the unconditional pass with fail-closed API and rendered-UI readiness assertions, retain actionable runtime evidence, and guard the release workflow contract against regression.
Contract-Neutral: Release diagnostic and workflow verification hardening only; no product runtime contract changes.
* Expose stable E2E failure identities
Project Playwright JUnit failures into bounded GitHub annotations so repeated stable-tier failures can be diagnosed without rerunning or weakening the gate. Keep the full reports and runtime logs as the forensic record, and cover annotation parsing and escaping with deterministic tests.
Contract-Neutral: This changes CI failure observability only and does not alter product runtime behavior, stable-tier membership, retries, or verdict semantics.

Reapply the still-applicable exact-candidate tool setup hardening and its workflow contract assertions on current main. Current main already contains the native-path Docker and host fixtures plus the prescribed resource guardrail source path.
Contract-Neutral: Release-workflow hardening and test-fixture portability do not change the product runtime contract.

The internal/api race suite now routinely exceeds the old 20-minute package timeout on hosted runners while passing. Set a governed 30-minute package timeout and 40-minute release job ceiling, pin the relationship with contract tests, and refresh the rc.4 packet with the fixes landed since preparation.
Contract-Neutral: E2E test tier metadata and validation only; no deployment runtime or public contract change.

Production SignPath signing requests require manual approval in the
SignPath UI, so the previous single-job flow (submit with
wait-for-completion inside a 40-minute window) let approval latency fail
the Windows build, and any re-run rebuilt the binaries and submitted a
second request needing a second approval.
The Windows lane is now two jobs: sign-windows-agent builds the unsigned
executables, submits the SignPath request without waiting, and uploads a
7-day signing-request record; collect-windows-signing absorbs approval
latency by polling the recorded request, downloads the signed artifact
by request id, and keeps the existing verification and evidence steps.
If approval outlasts the 115-minute polling window, the collection job
fails with re-run guidance and "Re-run failed jobs" collects the same
recorded request - no rebuild, no resubmission. The legacy PFX
break-glass backend rides the same two-job shape via an artifact
hand-off. Workflow output wiring, artifact names, and evidence content
are unchanged for downstream consumers.
The shape test now pins the async invariants (no wait-for-completion:
true in the candidate workflow), and the code signing policy plus the
deployment-installability contract describe the two-phase flow.
Two failures landed this morning:
- test_gitleaks_ignore.py's historical-fingerprint resolution (added in
d1fa7f38c) needs branch- and tag-reachable history, but the
scripts-and-build job used a depth-1 checkout, so all 37 fingerprints
failed to resolve in CI. Fetch full history like the gitleaks and
changes jobs already do.
- d1f687c0e routed frontend-modern/package.json and package-lock.json to
the new frontend-dependency-security path policy without updating the
manifest expectations pinned in test-hot-dev-bg.sh. Pin the effective
first-match policy per manifest instead of bare membership so the
routing stays asserted and shadowed entries cannot fake coverage.
Contract-Neutral: CI-only fix: full-history checkout for gitleaks fingerprint resolution test and re-pin hot-dev manifest policy expectations to the registry routing d1f687c0e already established; no contract delta
The pre-commit frontend formatter resolved prettier at
REPO_ROOT/frontend-modern/node_modules/.bin/prettier, where REPO_ROOT is
derived from the script's own path. In a linked worktree that is the
worktree root, which never runs npm install, so prettier_bin() returned
None and the formatter silently returned 0. Every frontend commit made
from a Claude or Codex agent worktree skipped formatting entirely, and
the drift accumulated in already-committed files until someone ran
`make format` and picked up 14 files of unrelated churn.
The skip path's comment claimed "CI's prettier check still catches drift
that slips through here." No such check existed -- nothing under
.github/workflows referenced prettier -- so there was no backstop at all.
- Fall back to the primary worktree's node_modules, resolved via
`git rev-parse --git-common-dir`, and say so in the hook output so a
version mismatch between the two checkouts stays visible.
- Add the whole-tree "Check frontend formatting" step to the frontend CI
job that the comment already promised. Staged-only formatting cannot
see drift in untouched files; this can.
- Pin prettier exactly. "^3.3.0" let the tracked package-lock.json land
on 3.9.5 while the gitignored pnpm-lock.yaml resolved 3.9.6, so CI and
the dev machine were free to run different formatters.
- Resolve the test suite's prettier the same way, so its two real
coverage tests stop silently skipping in worktrees.
Contract-Neutral: devDependency prettier version pin plus pre-commit/CI formatter tooling; no runtime, API, or deployment-surface delta
The agent_runtime verify-only build pointed its registry buildcache at
ghcr.io/<owner>/pulse-agent, a package no workflow publishes. A cache ref
creates the package it points at, so every release recreated it and the
repository's Packages sidebar advertised an empty pulse-agent entry that
reads like a pullable agent image sitting beside the real pulse,
pulse-control-plane and pulse-chart/pulse packages. The only release tag it
ever carried is a stray v6.0.0-rc.3.
Move the cache to ghcr.io/<owner>/pulse:agent-buildcache, alongside the
runtime stage's existing pulse:buildcache tag, so it lives in the package
that actually ships and shares backend-builder layers with the runtime
build.
TestAgentBuildCacheDoesNotResurrectPulseAgentPackage locks this in. It scans
every workflow for registry-qualified refs to the pulse-agent package,
collapsing ${{ }} expressions first so an interpolated owner cannot hide one
behind its spaces, and asserts both the new cache target and the chart's
published agent image default. Verified red on a restored buildcache ref and
red again on a ref hidden behind ${{ github.repository_owner }}.
Two stale claims corrected while here. The chart values comment said the old
agent.image default was never published, when it did carry v6.0.0-rc.3. The
deployment-installability contract called rcourtman/pulse the only image
publish-docker.yml pushes, when the same workflow also pushes the MSP
pulse-control-plane image. The contract now also forbids buildcache
references to the pulse-agent package, which is what let this regress.
Deleting the orphaned package itself remains a manual GHCR step.
40d29ca44 rewrote the public repository surface and tripped four standing
guards. Reinstate the signed-installer verification snippet and pinned
pulse-installer ed25519 key in README.md, use native-language names for
the localized guide links, point the issue-template docs contact link at
a stable non-branch-tip URL, and resync the shipped copies under
frontend-modern/public/docs with their repo sources.
Fixes CI on main (runs 31058322973, 31058903048).
