Flip vmware-vsphere from governance_state=admitted, readiness_stage= first-lab-ready to supported on both axes. The phase-1 floor (vCenter client, canonical agent/vm/storage projection, alerts integration, Assistant read paths, mock fixtures, page surface, automated proof for the read-only boundary) has been in place; the only remaining gate was a live vCenter run, and we are taking the platform claim on the strength of the implementation rather than blocking on that proof. Add vmware-vsphere to default_infrastructure_source_order, to the First-class platforms list and Current Support Matrix in PLATFORM_SUPPORT_MODEL, and to the Pulse primary navigation (automatically via SUPPORTED_PLATFORM_IDS in the regenerated frontend manifest). Rename and invert the Go contract test that asserted vSphere stays admitted, and let the admitted-platform helpers tolerate an empty set now that nothing currently lives there. Drop the "in first-lab- ready readiness" line from the vSphere empty state. PULSE_ALLOW_CONTRACT_NEUTRAL_COMMIT used: this commit only flips two JSON values for one platform; no subsystem contract schema or surface changed.
📚 Pulse Documentation
Welcome to the Pulse documentation portal. Here you'll find everything you need to install, configure, and master Pulse.
v6 Execution Canonical Source
For Pulse v6 build/release execution work, do not start from this broad docs index. Use:

Local pre-commit also blocks partial staging for hook-sensitive governance files underdocs/release-control/v6/,scripts/release_control/,internal/repoctl/,.husky/pre-commit, and.github/workflows/canonical-governance.yml, because those checks still execute or structurally read the working-tree versions locally.python3 scripts/release_control/subsystem_lookup.py <path> [<path> ...] --pretty --leanif you need subsystem ownership, proof routing, exact contract-focus lines, and compact lane context for a change
For governed runtime changes, a staged subsystem contract only counts if its
diff updates a substantive contract section such as Purpose, Canonical Files,
Shared Boundaries, Extension Points, Forbidden Paths,
Completion Obligations, or Current State, rather than metadata alone.
All other documents are supporting references unless explicitly required for evidence.
