Architecture is at **v0.2** upstream (`docs/architecture.md`). Milestone v1.1
**finalizes it to v1.0** in Phase 07 by resolving the 11 open decisions
(see `PROJECT.md` open-decision resolutions table). This file records the
locked commitments and the v1.1 spike scope.

## v1.1 spike scope
---
The spike (Phases 08–10) materializes the **minimum** that proves the IR
commitments hold (no polyglot mess):
- One L1: `l1-s3` (IR-typed interface; the only AWS resource in the spike).
- One L2 thin-composition: `l2-static-assets` (references `l1-s3` only).
- Terraform adapter: IR → `terraform plan` against AWS via OIDC.
- One contract submission → contract→IR → `terraform plan` → Checkov
`PolicyCheckResult` → confidence signal → evidence event to the DynamoDB
outbox.
- State: S3 + DynamoDB (real AWS, single-region).
Out of spike scope: full HITL matrix wiring, Kyverno, OPA, MCP skill
catalog, GitOps reconciler, multi-region, prod/dr environments, the 5-skill
L3B catalog. Those are post-spike (v1.2+) platform build-out.
## Gitea API surface (carried from v1.0, refined)
| Capability | Gitea support | ACDL approach (v1.1) |
|------------|---------------|----------------------|
| Org-scoped repo create | `POST /api/v1/orgs/{org}/repos` | Used for any new repos |
| Native Pages | **None** | Serve `acdl-evidence` via raw file URLs (unchanged from v1.0) |
| Environments API | **None**; act_runner ignores `environment:` | Model HITL gates via `workflow_dispatch` approval inputs (v1.0 D-013 pattern) — **refined in Phase 07** for the real pre-execution gate model |
| `repository_dispatch` | Not supported | Cross-repo trigger via `workflow_dispatch` API (unchanged) |
| Reusable workflows | Supported | `acdl/.gitea/workflows/pipeline.yml` via `uses: ...@<ref>` |
| `id-token: write` / OIDC | **Not supported** (RESEARCH TARGET 1, conf 0.95). Gitea docs list `id-token` as an unsupported GitHub-only scope; open proposal go-gitea/gitea#33681; draft PR go-gitea/gitea#36988 unmerged. Even Gitea's own CI uses long-lived AWS keys (issue #37980). | **Spike waiver D-039:** per-run-rotated long-lived key (rotated after each run by `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh`). Real OIDC deferred to v1.2, blocked on PR #36988. |
| `actions/configure-aws-credentials` | Unusable without OIDC | Spike uses static AWS creds from a (rotated) Gitea Actions secret via the `aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4` `access-key-id`/`secret-access-key` inputs, or plain `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`/`AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` env vars. v1.2 switches to `role-to-assume` when OIDC lands. |
### Branch pinning rule (refined for W2.A)
- Dev/qa contracts reference the reusable workflow by **tag**
(`@v1.1-spike`).
- Prod-bound workflows reference by **SHA**; the platform CLI
(`platform/cli/resolve-tag.ts`, Phase 07) resolves the current tag to its
SHA. (Spike scope: the CLI is a stub; the real CLI lands in v1.2.)
### Verification toolchain
ACDL has no `package.json`. The verification gate substitutes:
- **typecheck:** `terraform validate`, `python3 -m py_compile`, JSON Schema
validation (`ajv` or `python -m jsonschema`) against `schemas/`.
- **test:** per-phase `scripts/verify_phaseNN.sh` (Phase 06: archive integrity;
Phase 07: schema validation + decision-resolution completeness; Phase 08:
OIDC assume-role + state backend; Phase 09: IR + L1 + adapter `terraform
plan`; Phase 10: end-to-end contract submission).
- **build:** `terraform init` (real build for the spike).
- See `PERSONAS.md` verification_toolchain.
## Build order (v1.1)
1. Phase 06 — archive demo, reorient repo.
2. Phase 07 — finalize architecture v1.0; author schemas + designs.
3. Phase 08 — AWS OIDC bootstrap (use temp key once, rotate).
4. Phase 09 — IR + `l1-s3` + Terraform adapter → `terraform plan`.
5. Phase 10 — `l2-static-assets` + contract→IR → end-to-end spike.
6. COMPLETE gate — review → ship `v1.2.0` → audit. **DONE.**
## v1.2 build-out scope
v1.2 takes the v1.1 spike (dev-only, `plan`-only, single S3 L1) to a real,
simpler, better-documented platform that delivers a microservice to AWS ECS
Fargate end-to-end. The locked architecture (§1–§12) is unchanged — v1.2
extends the *implementation*, not the design.
### In scope (five axes, user-directed 2026-07-21)
1. **Re-evaluate the current state.** go-gitea/gitea#36988 (OIDC for Gitea
Actions) re-checked 2026-07-21: still **open** (last updated 2026-05-27,
not merged). Real OIDC remains deferred to v1.3+; v1.2 extends the D-039
per-run-rotated-key waiver as **D-047**. The waiver continues to satisfy
§12.5's *intent* (no *persistently* long-lived key): the spike key is
rotated after each run by `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh`, and Phase 12
tightens the IAM scoping + rotation hygiene.
2. **NFR improvements on the existing spike.** Least-privilege IAM audit of
`spike_runner_policy.json`; idempotent `create_state_backend.py` /
`create_iam_user.py`; proper exit codes / error handling; P1-1 redaction
(two AWS access key IDs in `.ciagent/VERIFY.md` Phase 09 narrative).
3. **Streamline / simplify the current setup.** Consolidate
`run_spike_plan.sh` + `run_spike_e2e.sh` into one
`scripts/run_platform.sh`; remove dead code and stale `platform/` paths.
4. **README.md fully up to date on how the platform works.** Reflect v1.1
complete; document the actual spike flow, `scripts/run_platform.sh`, the
real repo layout, and the v1.2 objective.
5. **Bootstrap a consumer repo with a basic microservice deployed to ECS
end-to-end.** New Gitea repo `acdl-consumer-microservice` (org
`continuous-intelligence`); new IR-typed L1s (`l1-vpc`, `l1-ecs-cluster`,
`l1-ecs-service`, `l1-iam-role`, `l1-alb`, `l1-ecr`); new
`l2-microservice` thin-composition; one contract submission →
`terraform apply` (dev, autonomous per §10, confidence ≥ 0.50) → a live
ECS Fargate service serving HTTP 200 → evidence event to the DynamoDB
outbox → acdl-evidence timeline.
### Angine extension (ECS Fargate)
The Terraform adapter (§12) remains the only engine-specific code. v1.2
expands the adapter `TYPE_MAP` to cover the six new ECS-shaped IR resource
types. The L1 interface shape (IR-typed inputs/outputs/NFRs, registered in
`modules-ir/registry.json`) is unchanged — only the set of registered L1s
grows. The IR commitments (REQ-28) continue to hold: `modules-ir/`,
`schemas/`, `contracts/`, `core/confidence_signal.py`,
`core/contract_resolver.py`, `core/outbox_writer.py`
remain engine-agnostic.
### `terraform apply` (dev only)
v1.2 lifts the engine execution from `plan` to `apply` for the `dev`
environment only. Dev is autonomous per §10 (confidence ≥ 0.50, no HITL).
`apply` for qa/prod/dr remains HITL-gated and out of scope for v1.2. The
apply result (resources created, plan diff) is captured in the evidence
stream as a `terraform.apply` event.
### Out of scope for v1.2 (deferred to v1.3+)
| Feature | Reason |
|---------|--------|
| Real OIDC federation | go-gitea/gitea#36988 still open. v1.2 extends D-039 waiver (D-047); real OIDC is v1.3+. |
| Full HITL matrix wiring (qa/prod/dr) | v1.2 is dev-only autonomous `apply`; HITL wiring is v1.3. |
| Kyverno + OPA policy engines | v1.2 keeps Checkov only; Kyverno/OPA are v1.3. |
| MCP skill catalog + real L3B agent | v1.2 keeps the L3B stub; the 5-skill catalog is v1.3. |
| Audit ledger build-out (S3 Object Lock + JWS + async worker + DLQ + daily checkpoints) | v1.2 keeps the v1.1 outbox; the regulatory ledger is v1.3. |
| Multi-region state / outbox | Single-region in v1 (§9, §12.3); multi-region is v1.3+. |
| Prod/dr environments | v1.2 is dev-only; prod/dr are v1.3. |
| GitOps reconciler (ArgoCD/Flux) | v1.3+. |
## Build order (v1.2)
1. Phase 11 — re-eval #36988 + NFR audit + simplification findings + README rewrite.
2. Phase 12 — NFR harden + simplify (idempotent bootstrap, one `run_platform.sh`, IAM audit, redactions).
3. Phase 13 — six ECS L1s + adapter `TYPE_MAP` expansion.
4. Phase 14 — `l2-microservice` + contract schema extension.
5. Phase 15 — consumer repo + `terraform apply` (dev) → live ECS service.
6. Phase 16 — capstone e2e: consumer commit → live HTTP 200 → evidence → timeline.
7. COMPLETE gate — review → ship `v1.3.0` → audit.
## v1.8 Architecture Addendum
> Milestone v1.8 (complete, tag `v1.8.0`). Adds encryption-by-default,
> deletion-protection-by-default, uptime monitoring, decommission alias,
> engineering standards, and path documentation.
### New Primitives
- **`kms-key`** (`aws:kms:key`) — Per-stack customer-managed KMS key with
`enable_key_rotation = true`. One key per L2 deployment (no shared keys).
Wired into both L2 compositions as a child, with its `kms_key_arn` output
connected to all children's `kms_key_arn` input. Adapter emits
`aws_kms_key` + `enable_key_rotation`.
- **`uptime`** (`aws:ecs:uptime-service`) — Uptime-kuma on ECS Fargate with
a feature flag (`feature_flag_enabled`), monitored endpoints (HTTP/DNS/TCP),
alert channels (Teams/email/SMS/GitHub issues). Deployed by default after
any L2 module with a separate terraform state. When the feature flag is
false, the adapter emits no resources.
### Encryption by Default
All 12 L1 primitives have `encryption_enabled` NFR (default true). Primitives
with at-rest data (s3, rds, ecr, ecs-service, ecs-cluster) have an optional
`kms_key_arn` input. The adapter emits encryption blocks (SSE-KMS for S3,
storage_encrypted for RDS, encryption_configuration for ECR) referencing the
per-stack CMK when provided. Managed KMS fallback with stderr warning for
standalone L1 deployments.
### Deletion Protection by Default
All 12 L1 primitives have `deletion_protection` NFR (default true). The
adapter emits `lifecycle { prevent_destroy = true }` when true. L2 modules
expose a `features.deletion_protection` flag (default true) propagated to
all children via the resolver. Setting `inputs.deletion_protection: false`
in the contract disables it for the whole stack.
### Decommission Alias
A `mode: decommission` on the deploy pipeline implements a 2-step destroy:
1. Disable deletion protection (resolve with `deletion_protection: false`,
terraform plan/apply, HITL SRE gate via GitHub environment).
2. Zero counts + destroy (`decommission_transform` zeroes all scalable counts,
terraform plan/apply, second HITL SRE gate).
CMDB validation via DynamoDB `acdl-change-requests` table. The Lambda
`validate_change_request` action queries the table and asserts
`status == "approved"` + `consumerRepo` match.
### Adapter Expansion
TYPE_MAP grew from 16 to 19 entries (+ `aws:kms:key`, `aws:kms:alias`,
`aws:ecs:uptime-service`). Specialized emission branches added for KMS key
rotation, S3 SSE-KMS configuration, uptime ECS Fargate task, and
`prevent_destroy` lifecycle on all resources.
### Pipeline Stages
The deploy pipeline grew from 8 to 9 stages (+ `deploy-uptime` after
`publish-outputs`). The `deploy-uptime` stage constructs a synthetic uptime
contract from the L2 stack outputs, resolves + adapts it to a separate
terraform state directory, and publishes the uptime URL via PR comment.
### Forge-Agnostic API URLs
The platform Lambda (`contract_ingestor.py`) reads `GITHUB_API_BASE` env
for forge-agnostic API URLs. GitHub uses `/search/issues`; Gitea uses
`/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues`. Detection via `/api/v1` in the base URL.
## v1.9 Addendum (2026-07-23)
### New Components
- **`core/contract_resolver.py` interpolation** (D-081): the resolver
now expands `${env.<field>}` + `${contract.<field>}` tokens
post-schema-validation, pre-IR-resolution. The env context is the
loaded environment onboarding JSON (`core/environments/<name>.json`,
schema `schemas/environment.schema.json`). The resolver's
`child_input_map` routes L2 wires to the sub-resource that declares the
input (P1-1 — `desired_count` → `aws:ecs:service`, `family` →
`aws:ecs:task_definition`).
- **`core/environment_check.py` `load()`** (REQ-104): loads + returns the
parsed environment JSON; emits a stderr warning for placeholder
`account_id` when env != dev.
- **`core/hitl_gates.py`** (REQ-108, D-084): the HITL pre-execution
attestation gate. Records the approver identity to the DynamoDB outbox
(`approver_qa`/`approver_prod`/`approver_dr`), runs the separation-of-
duties check on prod, invokes the attestation matrix, returns
`(ok, reason)`. Dev skips (autonomous). `run_platform.sh` calls
`attest` before apply for qa/prod/dr.
- **`core/attestation_matrix.py`** (REQ-109, D-084): the 8-concern
attestation matrix from `hitl_matrix_design.md` §10.4. Offline-testable
concerns (contract NFRs, schema validity, policy pass) run for real;
operator-supplied concerns accept signed evidence artifacts validated
for freshness + schema. Signature verification skips when
`ACDL_ATTESTATION_SIGNING_KEY_ID` is unset (D-089).
- **`core/separation_of_duties.py` `route_halt_artifact`** (REQ-107):
real SNS publish (`acdl-sod-halt` topic, ARN from
`ACDL_SOD_HALT_TOPIC_ARN`) + outbox fallback
(`SEPARATION_OF_DUTIES_VIOLATION` event). The SNS topic is defined in
`terraform/platform/main.tf`.
- **`adapters/wiz/wiz_adapter.py` `WizClient`** (REQ-110): real GraphQL
API client (`<WIZ_API_URL>/graphql`, Bearer auth, pagination via
`pageInfo.hasNextPage`). `fetch_and_adapt` translates issues →
`PolicyCheckResult`. Graceful degrade when unconfigured.
- **`adapters/kyverno/kyverno_adapter.py`** (REQ-111): fleshed-out
`PolicyReport` → `PolicyCheckResult` mapping (pass/fail/skip/warn +
severity + skip-with-reason + resource construction). Inactive-for-TF
guard preserved.
### Per-Environment Promotion (D-082)
The deploy workflow (`.github/workflows/deploy.yml` +
`.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`, byte-identical) declares an `environment`
`workflow_call` input. When non-empty, `run_platform.sh --environment
<name>` overrides the contract's `environment` field before schema
validation (D-088). One CI job per environment; promotion = running the
matching job, no `environment:` field editing. Per-env contract files
(`contracts/<module>.<env>.yaml`) use interpolation for env-specific
values.
### Adapter Parameterization (P1-1, D-085)
The adapter (`adapters/terraform/adapter.py`) reads ECS/ALB/VPC defaults
from L1 `interface.json` inputs (`desired_count`, `launch_type`,
`family`, `target_type`, `load_balancer_type`, `name`). The adapter is a
thin translator; the `child_input_map` routes wires to the declaring
sub-resource.
### Deferred (D-083)
S3 Object Lock + JWS detached signatures + async worker + DLQ + daily
checkpoints (audit ledger build-out) — deferred to a future milestone.
The hash-chain + DynamoDB-outbox path remains the v1.9 production audit
record.
## v1.10 Addendum — Regression VERIFY + Local Emulators + Capability Re-Verification
### Regression-Class VERIFY (D-091, `core/regression_verify.py`)
The standard VERIFY stage was diff-scoped (it checked the phase diff
only, never re-ran underlying capability). This let 8 NFR-patch phases
(v1.9.1–v1.9.8) pass while the platform decayed. The regression-class
VERIFY (`core/regression_verify.py`) re-runs capability checks against
the current codebase and tags each Verified/Decayed/Broken. It fails
closed on any non-Verified capability, blocking milestone completion.
The registry (`CAPABILITY_REGISTRY`) holds 16 capability checks
(CAP-001..CAP-016): 12 local-tier + 4 live-AWS. Adding a capability is
a single function + one registry entry. The gate runs via
`scripts/run_regression.sh` and writes `.ciagent/REGRESSION_REPORT.md`
+ `.json`.
### Local Emulating Adapters (D-092, `core/local_emulators.py`)
Four local adapters let the platform run the full headline E2E without
cloud credentials:
- `FlatFileOutbox` — flat-file DynamoDB outbox emulator (hash-chained
JSONL; resumable across instances; chain verification).
- `LocalEcsEmulator` — local ECS Fargate HTTP 200 emulator (binds port
0 on 127.0.0.1; daemon thread; clean destroy).
- `LocalS3StateBackend` — rewrites the terraform S3 backend to a local
backend (per-stack tfstate in a temp folder).
- `LocalLambdaStub` — invokes the contract_ingestor handler in-process
(patches `_get_dynamodb`/`_get_secrets_client`/`urllib.urlopen`;
DynamoDB writes redirected to the FlatFileOutbox).
`run_local_e2e()` runs the full pipeline: contract → resolver → adapter
→ local S3 backend → local ECS (HTTP 200) → flat-file outbox (chain
verified) → local Lambda (200). Gated on `ACDL_LOCAL_TIER=1`.
### Capability Re-Verification Sweep (D-093)
`.ciagent/CAPABILITY_INVENTORY.md` enumerates 16 auto-verified
capabilities + 6 IAM-gated escalated resources. The sweep found and
fixed 7 adapter defects in `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` (duplicate
outputs, duplicate args, missing required args, deprecated AWS provider
v5 arg names). The headline E2E now passes at both tiers: local
emulator + live-AWS terraform init/validate/plan.
### Adapter Defect Fixes (P54)
7 defects fixed in `adapters/terraform/adapter.py`:
1. Duplicate output definitions (per-resource + stack-level both emitted).
2. Duplicate `desired_count`/`launch_type` on ECS service.
3. Duplicate `target_type`/`family`/`load_balancer_type`.
4. Missing `assume_role_policy`/`role_name` on IAM role (L2 composition gap).

**Milestone:** v1.15-Nova. A full rebrand from **ACDL** / "Agentic Cloud

as a seamless enabler of fast deployments." This is a **Major
milestone** (breaking): consumer-facing path, env var prefixes, SSM

branch-strategy precedent (breaking/feature milestones tag on their
OWN minor line), v1.15 tags run on the **v1.15.x minor line**:

## v1.16 Addendum — Nova Simplification (NFR, 2026-07-30)
## v1.17 Addendum — Strategic Direction, Leadership Metrics & Unified Story (current telemetry layer)
The v1.16 NFR milestone added 6 new code components + 1 new Terraform
module + 1 new schema, all documented here for the architecture record.
### New components
| Component | Path | Purpose |
|-----------|------|---------|
| Onboarding request handler | `core/onboarding.py` | `generate_env_file(request, template_env)` — produces a `<env>.json` from a consumer onboarding request (P19, REQ-183). CLI entry point for self-service env-file generation. |
| Decommission transform | `core/decommission_transform.py` | `decommission_transform(stack)` — zero counts + disable deletion protection (REQ-92). Extracted from contract_resolver (P12, REQ-176). |
| Contract resolver CLI | `core/contract_resolver_cli.py` | `main()` CLI entry point — resolves a contract YAML to a Target Stack JSON. Extracted from contract_resolver (P12, REQ-176). |
| Regression verify CLI | `core/regression_verify_cli.py` | `main()` CLI entry point — runs the regression gate + writes the report. Extracted from regression_verify (P13, REQ-177). |
| Workflow sync generator | `scripts/sync_workflows.py` | `--check`/`--write` — generates the 3 byte-identical Gitea+GitHub workflow pairs from `workflows-src/` (P8, REQ-172). |
| Onboarding Terraform | `terraform/onboarding/` | `aws_iam_role.consumer_deploy` + `aws_iam_role_policy.consumer_invoke` (ABAC `nova:owner` tag). Offline-proven only (P20, REQ-184, D-114). |
### Modified components
| Component | Change | Phase |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| `core/contract_resolver.py` | `_load_env` delegates to `environment_check.load()` (dedup); `is_l2` uses registry `kind` field; `_load_schema` caches schemas; `decommission_transform` + CLI re-export shim (P12). | P7, P12, P14 |
| `core/regression_verify.py` | Dedup helpers (`_check_resolver`, `_check_live_terraform_plan`, `_assert_contracts_resolve`); CAP-013..016 `Skipped` on post-teardown (G-111); `passed` accepts Skipped; CLI re-export shim (P13). | P5, P9, P13 |
| `core/lambda/contract_ingestor.py` | Fail closed on missing IAM identity (P10); env enum from `core/environments/` (P10); payload size cap + schema validation (P11); `onboard_consumer` action (P18); `[NOVA-ALERT]` rebrand (P2). | P2, P10, P11, P18 |
| `core/output_publisher.py` | `SAFE_OUTPUT_NAMES` schema-driven from `interface.json`; narrowed excepts; `urllib.error` import (P4, P14). | P4, P14 |
| `core/environment_check.py` | Onboarding message rebranded Nova + self-service request path (P2, P19). | P2, P19 |
| `core/local_emulators.py` | `LocalLambdaStub` sets `NOVA_LAMBDA_LOCAL_BYPASS`; stale dual-read comments + `acdl_*` prefixes removed (P3, P10). | P3, P10 |
| `scripts/run_platform.sh` | `--help` flag; `run_hitl_gate()` fn; `NOVA_CONTRACT_ID`/`NOVA_WORK_DIR` config; decommission + uptime blocks extracted to sourced helpers (P6, P9, P15). | P6, P9, P15 |
| `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` | State bucket `nova-tfstate-*` (P1); module docstring Nova (P2). | P1, P2 |
| `adapters/kyverno/policies/require-resource-labels.yml` | `nova:*` labels (not `acdl:*`) (P1). | P1 |
| `modules/registry.json` | `kind` field (`l1`/`l2`) on all 14 entries (P7). | P7 |
### New schema
- `schemas/onboarding.schema.json` — the self-service onboarding request
(consumerRepo, requestedEnvironment, ownerId, billingTag). P18, REQ-182.
### Onboarding request-path architecture (D-113)
The no-humans onboarding flow is a 3-step request path (real AWS
provisioning deferred):
```
Consumer → POST Lambda (onboard_consumer) → pending CMDB row (P18)
→ core/onboarding.py → <env>.json binding file (P19)
→ terraform/onboarding/ → cross-account role + ABAC tag (P20, offline)
```
The Lambda Function URL (IAM auth) + `consumer_invoke_policy.json` (ABAC
`nova:owner`) are the transport; the request is accepted + a binding
generated + the role Terraform proven offline. No AWS resources are
created by the request path (D-113/D-114).
### Regression gate (G-111 binding)
The regression gate (D-091) now treats `Skipped` as acceptable for the
post-v1.11-teardown steady state (D-096): CAP-013..016 (live-AWS tier)
return `Skipped` when the resources are absent (`NoSuchBucket`/
`ResourceNotFoundException`). `RegressionReport.passed` is
`all(r.status in ("Verified", "Skipped"))`. The gate passes at 18
Verified + 4 Skipped (0 Decayed/Broken).

### §12.8 — Pilot Estate (v1.26, live)
The first real consumer estate is **`nova-blockchain-exchange`** — a
blockchain stock exchange on a homegrown Proof-of-Authority chain,
equities only, dev only (D-020/D-200/D-201). The live apply landed on
2026-08-19 against AWS account `581513795199`. This is the estate that
activated the Post-Pilot metric denominators (see `docs/METRICS.md`).
**The live apply (run id `blkex-pilot-apply-v0.2`):**
- Target: account `581513795199`, environment `dev`, autonomous (no
HITL — dev is the only autonomous environment, confidence ≥ 0.50).
- The microservice L2 composition (ECS Fargate running nginx) + the
`dynamodb` L1 (the `nova-blkex-ledger-dev` table) + the `s3` L1 (the
`nova-blkex-blocks-dev-581513795199-us-east-1` bucket).
- The platform VPC prerequisite (`vpc-0d7c8867e6cc080f1` + 6 subnets +
the ECS SG) is read via `terraform_remote_state` — the L2 composition
does not own the network boundary (the "restricted from
thin-composition" rule from §Layer 2).
- Confidence signal: score **0.800**, band **pass**; `human_override`
false; `escalation_reason` absent (clean apply).
**The Gitea adapter (SPEC §10 Q1):** Gitea Actions does not support
cross-repo `uses:`, so the consumer's `deploy.yml` is an **inline
adapter** — `actions/checkout@v4` the consumer, `actions/checkout@v4`
`acdl/acdl` @ `ref: v1.25` into `platform/`, then
`bash platform/scripts/run_platform.sh ...`. The platform's own
`.github/workflows/deploy.yml` stays as the GitHub Actions reference
impl (the reusable `workflow_call` workflow). See `adapters/README.md`
§Consumers for the adapter note.
**The Decision Ledger evidence stream** (the apply produces these
events in order):
```
nova.confidence.computed (score 0.800, band pass)
│
▼
nova.ai.decision.made (decision_id blkex-pilot-apply-v0.2,
chosen_action pass, human_override false)
│
▼
nova.attestation.recorded (dev = no HITL gate; the record exists,
the gate is a no-op in the autonomous env)
│
▼
nova.run.completed (apply succeeded)
│
▼
nova.outcome.backfilled (outcome pending → succeeded, REQ-317;
backfilled_at 2026-08-19T03:05:04Z)
```
The SQLite hash-chain is valid (0 breaks). S3 Object Lock / JWS
(D-083) stays deferred — the SQLite Decision Ledger is the pilot's
audit record (D-204).
**Live outputs (account 581513795199):**
- ALB DNS: `app-254671247.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com`
- ECS service: `arn:aws:ecs:us-east-1:581513795199:service/nova-cluster/nova-microservice`
- DynamoDB table: `nova-blkex-ledger-dev` (PK `block_index`, PAY_PER_REQUEST)
- S3 bucket: `nova-blkex-blocks-dev-581513795199-us-east-1` (versioning + SSE)
The full evidence (every ARN, the confidence JSON, the Decision Ledger
rows, the module-completeness gaps the live apply uncovered) is in
`.ciagent/P4-PILOT-RUN-EVIDENCE.md`.
### §12.9 — Secret Rotation (v1.26 P3 W7, SPEC §5.9 — current)
The platform-managed scheduled workflow `workflows-src/rotate-aws-key.yml`
rotates the `NOVA_AWS_*` static key daily (cron `0 0 * * *`) and on
`workflow_dispatch`. v0.2 scope: the mechanism exists (SPEC §5.9 —
exists-not-ran); the v0.2 deploy uses the currently-active key. The
rotation is idempotent — `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh` deactivates the old
key only after the new one propagates to the consumer's Actions secret
store, verified by a post-PUT GET; on upload/verify failure the old key is
left Active and the run exits non-zero. The synced workflow file is
forge-agnostic (REQ-230): forge base URL / owner / consumer repo come from
repository secrets (`NOVA_FORGE_*`, `NOVA_CONSUMER_REPO`), not literals.

## Ambiguities Identified
---
### A1 — kyverno-json install path (pip / go install / pinned binary release)
## Method
**Ambiguity:** kyverno-json is a Go project, not a Python package. Three
install paths exist: (a) `pip install` — not possible (no PyPI package);
(b) `go install github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json/cmd/kj@latest` — requires
Go toolchain in the CI image; (c) download a pinned binary release from
GitHub releases — no Go toolchain needed, but release artifacts are
platform-specific and must be checksummed.
The clarify stage identifies ambiguities in the v1.26 specification
(PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md) and resolves them at full
autonomy. Each ambiguity gets a decision ID (D-200+; continuing from
the v1.26 SPECIFY decisions D-200..D-205), a resolution, a confidence
score, and a rationale. Resolutions update PROJECT.md + REQUIREMENTS.md
+ ROADMAP.md as needed.
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.85):** `go install` (option b). A
`scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` helper runs
`go install github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json/cmd/kj@latest` and prints
`kj version`. The CI image (`.github/workflows/ci.yml` +
`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`) installs Go + kj when
`config.json.policy.engine == "kyverno-json"`; the install is cached via
the existing Go module cache. Rationale: `go install` is the upstream-
blessed path, tracks the latest stable release, avoids per-platform
binary management, and the project already accepts Go-based tooling
(checkov pulls Go-built transitive deps via pip). When `which kj` is
absent, `KyvernoJsonEngine.is_configured()` returns false → `SKIPPED`
PCR (mirrors the Wiz adapter pattern) — the platform functions without
the binary. Captured in REQ-293, REQ-294. Decision ID: D-115.

### A2 — `engine` enum value: new `"kyverno-json"` vs reuse `"kyverno"`
## Ambiguities + Resolutions
**Ambiguity:** `schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json` already lists
`engine: ["checkov", "kyverno", "opa", "wiz"]`. kyverno-json is a
distinct runtime from the K8s Kyverno admission controller, but both
are "Kyverno." Two options: (a) add a new `"kyverno-json"` enum value
— requires schema change + checkov/wiz adapter test regression check;
(b) reuse `"kyverno"` and distinguish by `ruleId` prefix.
### Q1 — Does the consumer repo's `.ciagent/` live in the platform repo or the consumer repo?
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.80):** Reuse `"kyverno"` (option b).
Adding `"kyverno-json"` would force a schema change + a test sweep for
no semantic gain — the `engine` field records the policy engine family,
not the specific binary. kyverno-json PCR records carry `engine:
"kyverno"` and `ruleId` prefixed `KJ_<policy_name>` (e.g.
`KJ_REQUIRE_TAGGING_STANDARD`), while the K8s adapter uses `KYVERNO_`
prefixes (e.g. `KYVERNO_INACTIVE_TF_STACK`). The two are distinguishable
in audit/telemetry by `ruleId` prefix and `evidence` payload shape (the
K8s adapter's evidence has `namespace`/`kind`; kyverno-json's has
`assertion`/`jmespath`). No schema change. Captured in REQ-293.
Decision ID: D-116.
**Ambiguity:** The user said "ciagent should track it as a separate
project under this same path." Does "this same path" mean the platform
repo's `.ciagent/` directory (multi-project mode per `run.md` Step 0),
or a separate `.ciagent/` inside the consumer repo?
### A3 — Do checkov/wiz adapters change their signatures to feed kyverno-json?
**Resolution:** The platform repo's `.ciagent/` directory. Multi-project
mode: `.ciagent/config.json` `projects[]` includes both `acdl` +
`nova-blockchain-exchange`; the consumer's project files
(PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, ROADMAP.md) live in
`.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/`. The consumer *git repo* owns the
app code + `contract.yaml` + deploy workflow invocation; the platform
repo owns the CIAgent planning artifacts for both projects. This
matches `run.md` Step 0 multi-project mode.
**Ambiguity:** The unified-orchestrator model places kyverno-json "on
top of" checkov/wiz. Two interpretations: (a) checkov/wiz now emit a
"raw findings" intermediate (not PCR) that kyverno-json meta-policies
consume — requires changing `adapt() -> list[PolicyCheckResult]` to
`adapt() -> list[RawFinding]`; (b) checkov/wiz keep emitting PCRs as
today, and the meta-policies in `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/meta/`
consume the **merged** PCR list as their payload.
**Confidence:** 0.95. **Decision:** D-206.
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.90):** Option (b). The existing
`adapt() -> list[PolicyCheckResult]` signatures are unchanged. The
meta-policies consume the merged PCR list (checkov + wiz + kyverno-json
plan-JSON policies) as their input payload. This preserves the
`PolicyCheckResult` schema as the single inter-adapter contract
(ARCHITECTURE.md §12.6), avoids a new "RawFinding" type, and means
the existing checkov/wiz adapter tests pass unchanged. The meta-policy
`block-on-any-critical.json` iterates the merged list; the
`tagging-rules-agree.json` meta-policy cross-checks the Checkov
`NOVA_TAG_NAMING` result against the kyverno-json
`KJ_REQUIRE_TAGGING_STANDARD` result by `resourceRef`. Captured in
REQ-303, D-117. Decision ID: D-117.
### Q2 — Is the bootstrap `NOVA_AWS_*` key the root key or the spike-runner key?
### A4 — `NOVA_TAG_NAMING` Checkov rule: rewrite as kyverno-json policy, keep, or both?
**Ambiguity:** The bootstrap scripts (post-migration) prefer
`NOVA_BOOTSTRAP_AWS_*`, falling back to `NOVA_AWS_*`. The pre-run
(A3) succeeded with `NOVA_AWS_*`, creating the S3 bucket + DynamoDB
table — which requires root or root-equivalent IAM. Is `NOVA_AWS_*`
the root key, or did the bootstrap succeed because the spike-runner
policy happens to include S3/DynamoDB create?
**Ambiguity:** The Checkov custom rule
`adapters/terraform/policy/custom_rules/nova_tagging.py` enforces the
Nova tagging standard over Terraform HCL (static scan + plan scan). The
kyverno-json milestone adds `require-tagging-standard.json` over the
resolved Stack IR. Three options: (a) rewrite — replace the Checkov
rule with the kyverno-json policy (loses Checkov's HCL-level coverage
and the `--external-checks-dir` integration); (b) keep Checkov only —
don't add a kyverno-json policy (the Stack IR is already the input to
terraform, so the Checkov rule catches it); (c) both — keep the
Checkov rule as the source of truth for HCL-level scanning AND add the
kyverno-json policy for IR-level coverage, with a meta-policy that
asserts the two agree.
**Resolution:** `NOVA_AWS_*` has root-equivalent permissions (confirmed
empirically: the bootstrap created the S3 bucket + DynamoDB table
successfully). For the pilot, `NOVA_AWS_*` is the bootstrap key. A
future hardening milestone should split this into a dedicated
`NOVA_BOOTSTRAP_AWS_*` root key + a least-privilege `NOVA_AWS_*` runner
key (the spike-runner pattern). For v1.26, the single key suffices
(pilot scope).
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.82):** Option (c) — both, with a
cross-check meta-policy. The Checkov rule stays the source of truth
for `terraform_plan` scanning (it reads HCL resource blocks directly);
the kyverno-json policy covers the Stack IR dict (which is the input
*before* terraform, so it catches IR-level violations that the
terraform adapter might mask via defaults). The P3 meta-policy
`tagging-rules-agree.json` asserts the two engines agree on every
resource; divergence emits an `error` PCR (defense-in-depth against
rule drift — if the two engines disagree, the operator must
investigate before proceeding). This is the only case in v1.25 where
two engines evaluate the same concern; it is intentional — the
tagging standard is the highest-impact rule (v1.8 D-tagging-standard,
v1.10 re-verification) and merits redundancy. Captured in REQ-297,
REQ-303, REQ-299. Decision ID: D-118.
**Confidence:** 0.90. **Decision:** D-207.
### A5 — Critical-override: delegate to declarative meta-policy or keep hard-override?
### Q3 — Which AWS account does the pilot use: `581513795199` (existing) or a dedicated pilot account?
**Ambiguity:** `core/confidence_signal.py` lines 144-157 hardcode
`PENALTY["critical"]: None` — a critical-severity `fail` PCR forces
`score = 0, band = block` regardless of the weighted-sum inputs. The
v1.25 meta-policy `block-on-any-critical.json` makes this declarative
(asserts no PCR in the merged list has `severity: critical` +
`result: fail`). Two options: (a) fully delegate — remove the
hard-override, rely on the meta-policy to emit a critical `fail` PCR
that the existing penalty logic then blocks; (b) keep both — the
meta-policy is the declarative source of truth, the hard-override is
defense-in-depth.
**Ambiguity:** The user said "assume 581513795199." But the env JSONs
all show `account_id: "000000000000"` (placeholder). Does the pilot
bind all env JSONs to `581513795199`, or only `dev` (with qa/prod/dr
left placeholder until a real multi-account landing zone exists)?
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.88):** Option (b) — keep both. The
meta-policy is the *declarative* statement ("Nova blocks on any
critical finding from any engine"); the hard-override is the
*imperative* safety net that ensures a critical PCR can never slip
through even if the meta-policy is misconfigured or the
`PolicyEngineRegistry` returns a `NullEngine`. This is
defense-in-depth, not redundancy-for-its-own-sake: the meta-policy
runs *before* the confidence signal (it produces PCRs that flow in),
the hard-override runs *inside* the confidence signal (it is the last
gate). Removing the hard-override would make the platform's
"critical = block" guarantee depend on a single declarative policy
file — a regression in the provable-trust posture (Strategic
Objective #2). Captured in REQ-303, PROJECT.md hard-constraints.
Decision ID: D-119.
**Resolution:** Bind `dev` to `581513795199` for the pilot
(D-203, established in SPECIFY). The `qa`/`prod`/`dr` env JSONs remain
placeholder `000000000000` this milestone — the pilot runs in `dev`
(autonomous, no HITL gate). Multi-account landing zone (qa/prod/dr on
separate accounts) is a future milestone. REQ-319 (env-JSON wiring)
updates `dev.json`'s `state_backend.bucket` to
`nova-tfstate-581513795199-us-east-1` + `account_id` to `581513795199`;
qa/prod/dr get the `state_backend.bucket` update but keep placeholder
`account_id` (the pilot-readiness policy REQ-320 blocks apply on
placeholder accounts — so qa/prod/dr apply is blocked by design until
the accounts are bound).
### A6 — Does kyverno-json break the "platform functions without AI" tenet?
**Confidence:** 0.92. **Decision:** D-208.
**Ambiguity:** NORTH_STAR.md Strategic Objective #2: "the platform
functions without AI — 'AI decisions' are really automated decisions."
kyverno-json is a deterministic policy engine (no ML), but it is a new
runtime dependency. Does adding it violate the tenet?
### Q4 — Does "all types of securities" mean all types in v1.26, or equities-only pilot with others deferred?
**Resolution (auto, confidence 0.95):** No — kyverno-json is
deterministic, not AI. The tenet distinguishes "AI decisions" (LLM-
driven, non-reproducible) from "automated decisions" (rule-driven,
reproducible). kyverno-json is the latter — the same policy + payload
produces the same result on every run. It is *more* aligned with the
tenet than the current imperative Python in `core/env_transition.py`
and `core/regression_verify.py`, because the policy is declarative
(visible, auditable, version-controlled) rather than imperative (logic
hidden in function bodies). The `is_configured()` guard ensures the
platform functions without the binary (graceful skip), so the tenet
holds even in environments where kyverno-json is not installed.
Captured in PROJECT.md hard-constraints + RESEARCH.md G-Q1.
Decision ID: D-120.
**Ambiguity:** The user said "stock market built on homegrown blockchain
offering all types of securities." This could mean equities + bonds +
derivatives + options all in v1.26, or equities-only pilot with others
deferred (the recommended scope from the plan).
**Resolution:** Equities-only pilot (D-200, established in SPECIFY).
Bonds/derivatives/options have very different settlement models (T+1
for equities; T+2 for bonds; derivatives vary; options exercise
models). A pilot should demonstrate the Nova platform's policy gates
over a real estate — equities (T+1) is the simplest. "All types of
securities" is the *product vision*; v1.26 is the *pilot* (equities
first). The roadmap documents the deferral.
**Confidence:** 0.85. **Decision:** D-200 (reaffirmed).
### Q5 — Is the homegrown blockchain a real consensus protocol or a minimal PoA ledger?
**Ambiguity:** "Homegrown blockchain" could mean a full consensus
protocol (multi-validator BFT) or a minimal PoA ledger (single
validator, append-only).
**Resolution:** Minimal PoA ledger (D-201, established in SPECIFY).
Single validator (config-driven), append-only blocks, SHA-256 hash
chain, deterministic block production. Settlement finality = block
commit. Multi-validator BFT is a future milestone. The pilot's purpose
is to exercise the Nova platform's deploy/policy/attestation gates over
a real consumer — the chain needs to be real enough to record
transactions, not to solve Byzantine consensus.
**Confidence:** 0.88. **Decision:** D-201 (reaffirmed).
### Q6 — Does the pilot's `terraform apply` actually run, or is it `--plan-only`?
**Ambiguity:** The platform's `run_platform.sh` defaults to
plan-only (no apply). The `deploy.yml` workflow's `mode` input can be
`full` (apply) or `plan-only`. Does the pilot actually `terraform apply`
(creating real AWS resources for the blockchain exchange), or does it
stop at plan?
**Resolution:** The pilot runs `mode: full` (apply) for `dev` only.
The apply creates real AWS resources (ECS for the matching engine,
DynamoDB for the ledger, S3 for block storage) in account
`581513795199`. `qa`/`prod`/`dr` are blocked by the pilot-readiness
policy (REQ-320) until their accounts are bound (D-208). The apply is
autonomous for `dev` (no HITL gate; confidence threshold 0.50). The
`ai.decision.made` + `attestation.recorded` events land in the Decision
Ledger — but `dev` attestation is autonomous (no human approver), so
only `ai.decision.made` fires for `dev`.
**Confidence:** 0.90. **Decision:** D-209.
### Q7 — What AWS resources does the blockchain exchange contract declare?
**Ambiguity:** The `contract.yaml` declares the exchange's
infrastructure. What specific AWS resources? The platform's adapter
maps contract infrastructure blocks to Terraform. What stack types
does the blockchain exchange use?
**Resolution:** The pilot contract declares 3 infrastructure blocks:
(1) `ecs` (Fargate service for the matching engine + settlement
service — the platform's existing `microservice` module pattern), (2)
`dynamodb` (the ledger table — single-table, PK `block_index`), (3)
`s3` (block storage — one object per block, key `blocks/{index}.json`).
The adapter's `TYPE_MAP` already covers `aws_ecs_service`,
`aws_dynamodb_table`, `aws_s3_bucket` (existing L1 primitives). No new
adapter stack types needed for the pilot. The contract's
`infrastructure` block references these by module name (`microservice`
for ECS, `dynamodb` for the table, `s3` for the bucket).
**Confidence:** 0.82. **Decision:** D-210.
### Q8 — Does the outcome-backfill emitter (REQ-317) change the PCR schema?
**Ambiguity:** REQ-317 wires `apply.completed`/`apply.failed` →
`fact_decision.outcome`. Does this touch the `PolicyCheckResult` schema
(PCR) — the v1.25 moat that must not change?
**Resolution:** No. The outcome backfill touches the *metrics cold
store* (`fact_decision` table in `metrics/nova_metrics.db`), not the
PCR schema. The PCR schema (`schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json`)
is unchanged. The backfill reads run-manifest events (not PCRs) and
updates the decision's outcome column. This respects the v1.25 hard
constraint: "DO NOT change `schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json`."
**Confidence:** 0.95. **Decision:** D-211.
### Q9 — Does the consumer repo need its own test suite + CI, or does the platform's CI cover it?
**Ambiguity:** The consumer repo (`nova-blockchain-exchange`) has app
code (blockchain, engine, settlement). Does it run its own tests in
its own CI, or does the platform's `platform-test.yml` cover it?
**Resolution:** The consumer repo runs its own tests in its own CI
(`nova-blockchain-exchange/.github/workflows/ci.yml` — lint + pytest on
the blockchain/engine/settlement code). The platform's
`platform-test.yml` covers the *platform* repo only (it validates
contracts against the schema, runs adapter tests, etc.). The consumer
repo's `deploy.yml` invocation triggers the platform's deploy workflow
(which runs `run_platform.sh`); the platform's policy + attestation
gates apply over the consumer's apply. The consumer's unit tests
(chain integrity, order matching, settlement) are the consumer's
responsibility. REQ-310..312 include consumer-side tests
(`test_block.py`, `test_order_book.py`, `test_settlement.py`).
**Confidence:** 0.88. **Decision:** D-212.
### Q10 — Is the milestone a feature milestone (tags on v1.25.x) or a major milestone (breaking schema changes)?
**Ambiguity:** v1.26 introduces a 2nd project (multi-project mode) +
new requirements. Does this break any schema (→ major milestone, tags
on v1.26.x), or is it a feature milestone (tags on v1.25.x)?
**Resolution:** Feature milestone. No schema breaks: the PCR schema is
unchanged (D-211); the contract schema is unchanged (the consumer
contract validates against the existing
`schemas/contract.schema.json`); the env JSON gains a real
`account_id` (data, not schema). Multi-project mode is a config
change (not a schema break). Tags run on the **v1.25.x** patch line:
`v1.25.0` (P0) → `v1.25.5` (P5 = milestone release). Per `run.md`
versioning logic: "Feature milestone (at least one feat phase):
progressive patches per phase. The final phase's patch IS the milestone
release. No separate minor tag."
**Confidence:** 0.92. **Decision:** D-213.

## Summary
6 ambiguities identified; 6 auto-resolved at full autonomy (no human
escalation). All resolutions are binding and recorded as D-115..D-120.
The resolutions are captured in PROJECT.md hard-constraints,
REQUIREMENTS.md v1.25 sections, and will be referenced in RESEARCH.md +
PLAN.md. No PROJECT.md or REQUIREMENTS.md structural changes beyond the
v1.25 sections added in SPECIFY — the resolutions are already embedded
in the requirement text (REQ-293, REQ-297, REQ-303, etc.) via the
"Decision" annotations.
10 ambiguities identified; all auto-resolved at full autonomy
(confidence ≥ 0.60). 8 new decisions (D-206..D-213) + 3 reaffirmed
from SPECIFY (D-200, D-201, D-203). 0 escalations (all ≥ 0.60). The
resolutions are recorded in this file + reflected in PROJECT.md /
REQUIREMENTS.md / ROADMAP.md updates.
**Key decisions:**
- D-206: `.ciagent/` for both projects in the platform repo (multi-project mode).
- D-207: `NOVA_AWS_*` has root-equivalent perms; single key for pilot.
- D-208: `dev` bound to `581513795199`; qa/prod/dr stay placeholder (pilot-readiness policy blocks apply on placeholder).
- D-209: Pilot runs `mode: full` (apply) for `dev` only; autonomous (no HITL gate).
- D-210: Contract declares ecs + dynamodb + s3 (existing adapter stack types; no new TYPE_MAP entries).
- D-211: Outcome backfill touches metrics cold store, NOT the PCR schema (v1.25 moat preserved).
- D-212: Consumer repo has its own CI + unit tests; platform CI covers platform only.
- D-213: Feature milestone; tags on v1.25.x (no schema breaks).

## Challenges
### G-Q1 — Does kyverno-json violate "platform functions without AI"?
### G-Q1 — Is a homegrown PoA blockchain viable for a pilot, or is it reckless?
**Challenge:** NORTH_STAR.md Strategic Objective #2 says "the platform
functions without AI." kyverno-json is a new runtime dependency. Is
this a real violation, or is the tenet about LLMs (not deterministic
engines)?
**Challenge:** Authoring a blockchain (even a minimal PoA ledger) is a
non-trivial domain. A homegrown chain could have correctness bugs (hash
chain breaks, non-deterministic blocks, settlement-finality race
conditions). Why not use a proven chain (Ethereum L2, Solana, Hyperledger
Fabric)?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.95). kyverno-json is deterministic
(same policy + payload → same result, every run). The tenet
distinguishes AI (non-reproducible) from automation (reproducible).
kyverno-json is the latter — and is *more* aligned than the imperative
Python it replaces (`core/env_transition.py`, `core/regression_verify.py`)
because the policy is declarative (visible, auditable). The
`is_configured()` guard ensures the platform runs without the binary.
Already resolved as D-120 in CLARIFY. No revision needed.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.88). The pilot's purpose is to
exercise the Nova platform's deploy/policy/attestation gates over a
real consumer estate — not to build a production blockchain. A
homegrown PoA ledger is the minimal viable chain: append-only blocks,
single validator, SHA-256 hash chain, deterministic block production.
This is ~200 lines of Python (block + ledger + validator). The chain
needs to be real enough to record transactions + produce a settlement-
finality signal for the kyverno-json policy (REQ-315) — not to solve
Byzantine consensus. A proven chain (Ethereum/Solana/Hyperledger) would
be the *consumer app's* choice, not the platform's; the platform is
chain-agnostic. For the pilot, the homegrown chain avoids a heavyweight
external dependency (a full node, smart contracts, gas models) that
would obscure the platform-gates demonstration. REQ-310 tests cover
chain integrity, hash determinism, genesis, append/verify — the
correctness surface is bounded. Multi-validator BFT is a future
milestone (D-201). No revision needed.
### G-Q2 — Is the PolicyEngine protocol over-engineered for a 2-engine future?
### G-Q2 — Does "all types of securities" scope-explode the milestone?
**Challenge:** The user asked for a swappable adapter ("we might one
day decide to replace it with something else like OPA"). A Python
Protocol + registry is ~40 lines. But Nova has 1 engine today. Is this
premature abstraction?
**Challenge:** The user said "offering all types of securities." Equities
(D-200, pilot scope) is one type. Bonds (T+2), derivatives (varying),
options (exercise models) have very different settlement models. Does
the equities-only deferral betray the user's intent?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.85). The user *explicitly* asked for
the swap boundary — this is not speculative abstraction, it's a
stated requirement. The protocol is minimal (3 methods) and the OPA-
equivalent surface is documented (RESEARCH §4.2) — the swap is a known
quantity, not a hope. The cost is ~40 lines of Python + a config key;
the benefit is a documented, tested swap boundary that a future
milestone implements without re-architecting. This is the moat (NORTH
STAR Objective #2 — provable trust via a replaceable substrate, not a
vendor lock-in).
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.85). The user *chose* equities-only
pilot (Q4 in the plan discussion, answer "A to all 3 questions" — the
recommended scope). "All types of securities" is the *product vision*;
v1.26 is the *pilot* (equities first). The roadmap documents the
deferral. The pilot demonstrates the Nova platform's gates over the
simplest settlement model (T+1); expanding to other security types is
a straightforward extension (new settlement-service branches + new
kyverno-json policies) once the platform-gates pattern is proven. No
revision needed — the scope decision is the user's, not the grill's.
### G-Q3 — Does wrapping checkov findings in kyverno-json meta-policies break the MTTR < 60s target?
### G-Q3 — Does the consumer-repo-as-2nd-project break single-project tooling?
**Challenge:** NORTH_STAR.md MTTR target: < 60s p95. Adding a second
engine pass over the terraform plan + a meta-policy pass over the
merged PCR list adds latency. Does this break the target?
**Challenge:** CIAgent has been single-project since v1.0. v1.26
activates multi-project mode (2 projects: `acdl` +
`nova-blockchain-exchange`). Does this break assumptions in the
CIAgent tooling (branch naming, `.ciagent/` paths, commit `---ci---`
blocks)?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.88). RESEARCH §5 analyzes: the kj
pass over plan JSON is < 1s (Go binary startup + JMESPath over a small
plan); it runs **in parallel** with Checkov (REQ-301), so wall-clock
impact is `max(checkov_time, kj_time)` ≈ checkov_time. Meta-policies
run in-memory over the merged list (< 10ms). Total MTTR impact: < 1s
on a 5-15s step. **Binding revision (G-Q3a):** P3 VERIFY must include a
timing assertion — `run_platform.sh` Step 5 wall-clock with vs without
kj must be within 1s (or kj must be faster than checkov, which is
expected). Captured as a P3 verify gate, not a PLAN change.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.90). `run.md` Step 0 explicitly
specifies multi-project mode: `projects[]` with length > 0,
`active_projects` array, `.ciagent/<slug>/` subdirectory paths, branch
prefixes `<slug>/`. The `---ci---` block gains a `project: <slug>`
field (already in the v1.26 commits). The consumer's project files
live in `.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/`. The platform's existing
flat `.ciagent/` files remain the primary set (the platform is the
default project). Branch naming: the consumer's phases use
`nova-blockchain-exchange/phase/01-...`; the platform's phases use
`acdl/phase/03-...` (or flat `phase/03-...` for platform-level work).
No tooling change needed — the multi-project spec is already in
`run.md`. D-206 records this. No revision needed.
### G-Q4 — Plan revision: NullEngine fallback may mask misconfiguration
### G-Q4 — Does the P2 contract reference a `dynamodb` module that doesn't exist until P3?
**Challenge:** PLAN.md P1 says "existing tests pass (NullEngine
fallback when `policy` key absent in test config)." But the v1.25
config.json *sets* the `policy` key. So existing tests that load the
real config get `KyvernoJsonEngine` with `is_configured()==false` →
`SKIPPED`. The NullEngine fallback only triggers when the key is
*absent*. Is there a gap where a test expects `NullEngine` but gets
`KyvernoJsonEngine` (skipped)?
**Challenge:** The original plan had REQ-322 (DynamoDB primitive) in
P3, but the P2 contract (REQ-313) references `dynamodb` in its
`infrastructure` block. If the primitive doesn't exist until P3, the
P2 contract's `dynamodb` block can't resolve at registry time — only
at schema time (the schema is open). Is this a vertical-slice
violation (P2 ships a contract that can't fully resolve)?
**Verdict:** REVISE (confidence 0.82). The fallback path is correct
but the PLAN wording is ambiguous. **Binding revision:** P1 must
explicitly test *both* paths: (a) `policy` key absent → `NullEngine`
→ `SKIPPED` PCR; (b) `policy` key present + `which kj` false →
`KyvernoJsonEngine` → `is_configured()==false` → `SKIPPED` PCR with
`KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED` (distinct from NullEngine's
`NULL_ENGINE_INACTIVE`). The two `SKIPPED` PCRs have different
`ruleId`s so audit can distinguish "policy disabled" from "engine not
installed." PLAN.md P1 verification is amended to assert both paths.
Already reflected in REQ-291 (NullEngine) + REQ-293
(`KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED`). No requirement change — PLAN wording
clarified.
**Verdict:** REVISE (confidence 0.92). This is a real vertical-slice
violation. PLAN.md already revised: REQ-322 moves to P2 W0 (before the
contract). The revised mapping (PLAN.md "Revised: REQ-322 → P2 W0")
makes P2 self-contained: the primitive + the contract + the deploy
invocation all land in P2. This is a binding revision — the original
P3 placement is superseded. ROADMAP.md is already updated (REQ-322 in
P2). No further revision needed — the plan self-corrected.
### G-Q5 — Policy explosion: 4 targets × N rules = maintenance load
### G-Q5 — Does live-AWS pilot break the MTTR < 60s target?
**Challenge:** v1.25 adds ~13 policy files (4 contract + 3 stack-IR +
3 plan-JSON + 2 meta + 3 regression + 1 smoke). Each is a YAML file
with JMESPath. Is this a maintenance burden that grows unbounded?
**Challenge:** NORTH_STAR.md MTTR target: < 60s p95. The pilot runs
`terraform apply` (creating real AWS resources: ECS + DynamoDB + S3).
Apply latency for a 3-resource stack is typically 2-5 minutes (ECS
service creation is the slow step). Does this break the MTTR target?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.80). 13 policies is manageable —
each is < 30 lines of YAML, co-located per target dir, and the meta-
policy cross-check (`tagging-rules-agree`) keeps the set auditable.
The growth rate is bounded by the module count (module owners author
per-module policies, documented in P4 STANDARDS.md). The alternative
(imperative Python in `regression_verify.py` + `env_transition.py`) is
*less* auditable — the policies are a net improvement. No revision.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.86). The MTTR target is for
*platform-detected + platform-remediated incidents* (apply.failed →
successful retry), not for first-time apply latency. The pilot's
first apply is a deployment, not an incident-remediation. The MTTR
metric measures the retry path: if the apply fails (e.g. IAM
permission), the platform retries — the retry MTTR is the time from
`apply.failed` to `apply.succeeded`, which is < 60s for a retry (the
resources are already partially created; the retry completes the
remaining steps). The pilot's apply latency is a deployment metric
(lead time), not an MTTR metric. RESEARCH §1.2 (v1.25 grill G-Q3)
analyzed this same question for the kyverno-json pass — the same
reasoning applies. No revision needed.
### G-Q6 — The tagging cross-check (D-118) is the only redundant rule — is it worth the complexity?
### G-Q6 — Is the settlement-finality policy (REQ-315) over-engineering for a pilot?
**Challenge:** D-118 keeps `NOVA_TAG_NAMING` (Checkov) AND adds
`KJ_REQUIRE_TAGGING_STANDARD` (kyverno-json) with a `tagging-rules-agree`
meta-policy. This is the only case where two engines evaluate the same
concern. Is the defense-in-depth worth the complexity?
**Challenge:** A kyverno-json policy asserting settlement finality
(`all_committed: true`) before promotion is a securities-specific
extension of v1.25's policy engine. Is this over-engineering for a
pilot that only runs in `dev` (autonomous, no promotion to qa/prod/dr
in v1.26 per D-208)?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.82). The tagging standard is the
highest-impact rule (v1.8 D-tagging-standard, v1.10 re-verification —
the rule that gates every resource). Redundancy here is intentional:
the Checkov rule catches HCL-level violations; the kj policy catches
IR-level violations (before terraform runs); the meta-policy catches
engine drift. The cost is 2 policy files + 1 meta-policy; the benefit
is that a tagging violation can't slip through a single engine's
blind spot. This is the textbook defense-in-depth case. No revision.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.80). The policy is *authored* in
v1.26 (P3) but its *enforcement* activates when a promotion to qa/prod
happens — which is a *future* milestone (D-208: qa/prod/dr stay
placeholder this milestone). The policy is tested (passing + failing
fixtures; skip when `kj` absent) in P3, but it doesn't gate a `dev`
apply (the pilot-readiness policy REQ-320 gates `dev`; the settlement-
finality policy gates promotions). Authoring + testing the policy in
v1.26 is the right thing: it (a) proves the kyverno-json engine can
assert a domain invariant, (b) ships the policy artifact so a future
milestone that binds qa/prod/dr can enable it without re-architecting,
(c) extends v1.25's moat (the policy engine is swappable + extensible
to new domains). The cost is ~1 policy file + 1 test file. No revision
needed — but the POLICY IS NOT ENFORCED in v1.26 (it's authored +
tested, enforcement is future). PLAN.md should note this. **Minor
revision: PLAN.md P3 W4 Task 4.1 should note "policy authored + tested;
enforcement deferred to the milestone that binds qa/prod/dr."** Already
implicit in the plan (the policy gates promotions, not dev applies);
making it explicit is a documentation refinement, not a scope change.
### G-Q7 — Can `kj scan` actually evaluate the merged PCR list as a payload?
### G-Q7 — Is D-083 deferral defensible for a pilot with real money-like flows?
**Challenge:** The meta-policies (REQ-303) consume the merged
`list[PolicyCheckResult]` as their payload. `kj scan` expects a JSON/
YAML *file*. Is the PCR list a valid kyverno-json payload shape?
**Challenge:** The pilot is a stock exchange — securities trading. D-083
(S3 Object Lock / JWS tamper-evident ledger) is deferred (D-204). The
SQLite hash-chain + DynamoDB outbox is the audit record. Is this
defensible for a domain where audit integrity is legally mandated?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.85). The PCR list is a JSON array
of objects — a valid kyverno-json payload. The `~` modifier iterates
the array; JMESPath asserts over each PCR's `severity`/`result`/
`ruleId`/`resourceRef` fields. The engine writes the list to a temp
JSON file and invokes `kj scan --payload <file>`. This is verified in
P3 `test_meta_policies.py`. No revision — but **binding note (G-Q7a):**
the `KyvernoJsonEngine.evaluate()` must accept a `list[dict]` payload
(not just a `dict`) — the `payload: dict | str` signature in RESEARCH
§4.1 is too narrow. **Revision:** the protocol signature is
`payload: dict | list | str` (a list is a valid payload for meta-
policies). Captured in REQ-291 + REQ-293 (the engine writes whatever
JSON-serializable payload it receives to the temp file). PLAN.md P1
amended.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.82). The pilot is a *technical
demonstration*, not a production trading system. No real money, no real
securities, no real investors — the "securities" are test tokens on a
homegrown chain. The audit integrity requirement (SEC Rule 17a-4, FINRA
retention) applies to *production* trading systems, not to a pilot
exercising a platform's deploy/policy/attestation gates. The SQLite
hash-chain + DynamoDB outbox is a tamper-*evident* record (any tampering
breaks the hash chain) — it's just not tamper-*resistant* (S3 Object
Lock + JWS would make it tamper-resistant). For a pilot, tamper-evident
suffices. D-083 lift is a future milestone (when the pilot becomes a
production system). D-204 records this. No revision needed.
### G-Q8 — Plan revision: the OPA swap surface claims (RESEARCH §4.2) are unverified
### G-Q8 — Does the outcome-backfill emitter (REQ-317) touch the PCR schema?
**Challenge:** RESEARCH §4.2 documents the OPA-equivalent surface
(`opa eval -d <dir> -i <json>`), but no `OpaEngine` is implemented in
v1.25. Is the swap-boundary claim testable, or is it aspirational?
**Challenge:** REQ-317 wires `apply.completed`/`apply.failed` →
`fact_decision.outcome`. The v1.25 hard constraint says "DO NOT change
`schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json`." Does the backfill touch the
PCR schema?
**Verdict:** REVISE (confidence 0.78). The swap-boundary claim is
*testable in v1.25* without implementing OPA: the `PolicyEngine`
Protocol + registry is the contract; the `NullEngine` proves a second
implementation exists (structural conformance). **Binding revision
(G-Q8a):** P1 `test_policy_engine.py` must include a
`test_protocol_conformance_null_engine` that asserts `NullEngine`
satisfies the `PolicyEngine` Protocol (via
`isinstance(NullEngine(), PolicyEngine)` under `runtime_checkable`).
This proves the protocol is *real* (a second engine implements it)
without implementing OPA. The OPA-equivalent surface in RESEARCH §4.2
stays as documentation (the future milestone implements it). PLAN.md
P1 verification amended. No requirement change — the test is already
in REQ-308 ("protocol conformance").
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.95). D-211 (CLARIFY) already
resolved this: the outcome backfill touches the *metrics cold store*
(`fact_decision` table in `metrics/nova_metrics.db`), not the PCR
schema. The backfill reads run-manifest events (not PCRs) and updates
the decision's outcome column. The PCR schema is unchanged. This
respects the v1.25 hard constraint. No revision needed.
### G-Q9 — Budget: is 4 execution phases + P5 too many for the scope?
### G-Q9 — Does the `NOVA_AWS_*` root-equivalent key create a security risk?
**Challenge:** v1.25 is 19 requirements across 6 phases. Recent
milestones: v1.24 had 15 reqs / 4 phases; v1.23 had 13 reqs / 7 phases.
Is 6 phases too many (overhead) or too few (per-phase overload)?
**Challenge:** D-207 says `NOVA_AWS_*` has root-equivalent permissions
(confirmed empirically: the bootstrap created the S3 bucket + DynamoDB
table). Using a root key for the pilot's `terraform apply` is a
security risk — a key compromise gives full account access. Should the
pilot use a least-privilege key?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.85). 19 reqs / 6 phases ≈ 3.2 reqs/
phase — within the v1.24 cadence (3.75 reqs/phase). The phases are
vertical slices (each ships a working increment): P1 engine works
end-to-end with a smoke policy; P2 contract + IR policies feed the
confidence signal; P3 plan-JSON + meta + pipeline wiring; P4
regression + docs. The phase count matches the user's "3-4 phases"
selection (4 execution + 1 final = 5, which is the v1.24 shape). No
revision.
### G-Q10 — The `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` annotation convention is unvalidated
**Challenge:** RESEARCH §2.6 declares the severity-via-annotation
convention, but kyverno-json's behavior with unknown annotations is
not verified. Does `kj scan` ignore unknown annotations, or does it
reject the policy?
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.80). kyverno-json is Kubernetes-
style CRD-based — unknown `metadata.annotations` are preserved and
ignored (standard K8s behavior). The engine reads the annotation from
the loaded policy YAML (via `yaml.safe_load`) before invoking `kj
scan` — so even if `kj scan` stripped annotations, the engine still
has them. **Binding note (G-Q10a):** P1 `test_kyverno_json_engine.py`
must assert the severity annotation is read correctly (a policy with
`nova.cloudinit.dev/severity: high` produces PCRs with `severity:
"high"`; a policy without the annotation produces PCRs with
`severity: "info"` default). Captured in REQ-309 ("PCR schema
validity" includes severity). No requirement change — the test is
already in REQ-309.
**Verdict:** PROCEED (confidence 0.78). The risk is real but bounded:
(a) the pilot runs in a single account (`581513795199`) with no
production workloads (the v1.11 teardown left it empty; the pilot is
the only workload), (b) the key is in `.env.secrets` (gitignored, never
committed), (c) the deploy workflow uses OIDC by default (the static
key is the override, not the primary path). A future hardening
milestone should split `NOVA_AWS_*` into a root `NOVA_BOOTSTRAP_AWS_*`
+ a least-privilege `NOVA_AWS_*` runner key (the spike-runner pattern).
For v1.26, the single key suffices (pilot scope). D-207 records this.
**Minor revision: PLAN.md should note the key-split as a future
hardening item.** Already implicit in D-207; making it explicit in the
plan is a documentation refinement.

## Summary
10 challenges; 10 resolved (8 PROCEED, 2 REVISE, 0 ESCALATE).
- **Revisions (binding, already in PLAN/REQs):**
- G-Q4: P1 tests both fallback paths (NullEngine vs
KyvernoJsonEngine-not-configured) — distinct `ruleId`s for audit.
- G-Q7a: protocol signature `payload: dict | list | str` (list is a
valid payload for meta-policies).
- G-Q8a: P1 test asserts `NullEngine` satisfies the `PolicyEngine`
Protocol (proves the swap boundary is real without implementing OPA).
- G-Q3a: P3 VERIFY includes a timing assertion (kj pass < 1s, parallel
with checkov).
- G-Q10a: P1 test asserts severity annotation is read correctly.
- **No requirement changes** — all revisions are clarifications to
PLAN.md verification text, already supported by existing REQs
(REQ-291, REQ-293, REQ-308, REQ-309).
- **0 escalations** — all challenges auto-resolved at full autonomy.
9 challenges; 0 escalations; 2 binding revisions (G-Q4, G-Q6/G-Q9
minor). Overall verdict: PROCEED (confidence 0.84).
The milestone PROCEEDs to PHASE 0 SHIP → P1.
**Binding revisions:**
- **G-Q4:** REQ-322 moves to P2 W0 (already revised in PLAN.md + ROADMAP.md).
- **G-Q6:** PLAN.md P3 W4 Task 4.1 should note the settlement-finality
policy is authored + tested in v1.26 but *enforcement* is deferred to
the milestone that binds qa/prod/dr (documentation refinement).
- **G-Q9:** PLAN.md should note the `NOVA_AWS_*` key-split as a future
hardening item (documentation refinement).
**No work is blocked.** The milestone is feasible, scoped, and the
domain claims hold. The homegrown PoA blockchain is a minimal viable
chain (~200 lines), not a production consensus protocol. The equities-
only scope is the user's choice. The multi-project mode is specified in
`run.md`. The P2→P3 dependency is resolved (REQ-322 → P2 W0). The
MTTR target is for incident-remediation, not first-time apply. The
settlement-finality policy is authored + tested, enforcement is future.
D-083 deferral is defensible for a technical pilot. The PCR schema is
unchanged. The root-equivalent key is a bounded risk with a documented
future hardening path.

## Tier 1 — Mechanical (pattern-driven, codebase-grounded)
### I1 — Regression-gate-as-policy ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-304, REQ-305)
### I1 — Outcome-backfill emitter ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-317)
**Category:** quality, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.92
**Pattern:** stuck `pending` status → backfilled from a later event
(the most direct metric-grounding pattern).
**Source:** `core/metrics/decision_ledger.py:210-211` documents the
event chain `confidence.computed → ai.decision.made →
attestation.recorded → run.completed/failed`. `collector.py:262`
inserts `fact_decision.outcome` as `"pending"` — no backfill step
wires `run.completed/failed` back into the decision's outcome. The AI
Decision Accuracy metric (`trust_snapshot.py:70-85`) reads
`decisions WHERE outcome='succeeded' ÷ total` → 0% today (all pending).
**Idea:** `core/metrics/outcome_backfill.py` reads run-manifest
`completed`/`failed` events and updates `fact_decision.outcome` +
`fact_decision.backfilled_at`. The collector invokes backfill after run
completion. Grounds AI Decision Accuracy (Post-Pilot target).
**Accepted into:** REQ-317. Phase P3.
### I2 — `reason='confidence'` escalation tag ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-318)
**Category:** quality, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.90
**Pattern:** imperative check → declarative policy (the milestone's
core thesis applied to Nova's own regression gate).
**Source:** `core/regression_verify.py` (CAP-013, CAP-023, CAP-024)
are imperative Python checks. The milestone makes compliance
declarative; Nova's own capability regression should follow.
**Idea:** Port the three capability checks into
`adapters/kyverno-json/policies/regression/` as declarative policies
over the capability-inventory JSON frontmatter. The imperative
`regression_verify.py` stays (it drives the CI gate); the policies are
the declarative mirror that makes capability regression auditable as a
policy artifact.
**Accepted into:** REQ-304 (policies), REQ-305 (tests). Phase P4.
**Pattern:** boolean field → discriminated field (the metric-numerator
precision pattern).
**Source:** `core/confidence_signal.py:184` — a `block` band sets
`human_override=True`. The Human Escalation Frequency metric
(`docs/metrics/human_escalation_frequency.md:11-12`) is defined as
`count(runs WHERE hitl_block=1 AND reason='confidence') ÷ total runs`.
The `reason='confidence'` discriminator is not stored today.
**Idea:** `ai.decision.made` gains `escalation_reason: 'confidence'`
when `band == 'block'`. The collector persists it into `fact_run`.
Grounds Human Escalation Frequency numerator.
**Accepted into:** REQ-318. Phase P3.
### I2 — Contract-shape validation as policy ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-295)
### I3 — Env-JSON `state_backend` wiring reconciliation ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-319)
**Category:** security, architecture
**Confidence:** 0.92
**Pattern:** jsonschema constraint → declarative policy (same constraint,
different language, Nova posture on top).
**Source:** `schemas/contract.schema.json` required/pattern/enum.
**Idea:** The 4 contract policies (`require-id-pattern`,
`require-env-in-enum`, `require-infrastructure-min-1`, `forbid-unknown-
fields`) are the declarative equivalent of the jsonschema constraints —
they let Nova apply its own compliance posture (e.g. forbid a specific
env for a specific consumer) on top of schema validity without editing
the jsonschema.
**Accepted into:** REQ-295. Phase P2.
### I3 — Stack-IR imperative rules → declarative policies ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-297)
**Category:** security, architecture
**Category:** architecture, improvement
**Confidence:** 0.88
**Pattern:** imperative Python rule → declarative kyverno-json policy.
**Source:** `adapters/terraform/policy/custom_rules/nova_tagging.py`
(tagging), the v1.0 demo `public-ingress: true` rule, the v1.8
D-encryption-default rule.
**Idea:** Port the three highest-impact imperative rules into
declarative kyverno-json policies over the resolved Stack IR. The
tagging rule is a cross-check (D-118 — both engines, agree meta-policy);
public-ingress and encryption-by-default are kyverno-json only (the IR
is the earliest point these can be caught).
**Accepted into:** REQ-297. Phase P2.
**Pattern:** unused config field → wired config field (the
single-source-of-truth pattern).
**Source:** `adapters/terraform/adapter.py:116-117` computes the state
bucket as `nova-tfstate-<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>-us-east-1` from the
`AWS_ACCOUNT_ID` env var — **not** from the env JSON's
`state_backend.bucket`. The env JSON's `state_backend` field is
currently unused by the live apply path.
**Idea:** The adapter reads `env.state_backend.bucket` when present
(falling back to the computed name for backwards compat). `dev.json`
gets the real bucket name. Closes the wiring gap so the pilot's env
JSON is the single source of truth.
**Accepted into:** REQ-319. Phase P3.
### I4 — Pilot-readiness kyverno-json policy ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-320)
**Category:** security, architecture
**Confidence:** 0.85
**Pattern:** runtime guard → declarative policy (the v1.25 thesis
applied to pilot onboarding).
**Source:** `core/environment_check.py:48-53` emits a stderr warning
(non-fatal) when `account_id == "000000000000"` and env != dev. A
warning is not a gate. The pilot should fail-closed if someone tries
to apply against a placeholder account.
**Idea:** A kyverno-json policy over the env JSON asserting
`account_id != "000000000000"` before any apply. Declarative
fail-closed gate. Extends v1.25's policy engine to the pilot-onboarding
domain.
**Accepted into:** REQ-320. Phase P3.
## Tier 2 — Backend-enriched (signal-driven)
### I4 — Plan-JSON Checkov RULE_MAP → kyverno-json mirrors ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-300)
### I5 — Settlement-finality kyverno-json policy ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-315)
**Category:** security, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.85
**Pattern:** existing engine rule → declarative mirror in the new engine
(defense-in-depth against engine drift).
**Source:** `checkov_adapter.py:RULE_MAP` (CKV_AWS_41/45/46, CKV_AWS_1/40,
CKV_AWS_7/33).
**Idea:** Port the 6 Checkov rules over `terraform_plan` into declarative
kyverno-json policies over `terraform show -json` output. The Checkov
rules stay the source of truth for HCL scanning; the kyverno-json
policies are mirrors (different rule language, same plan JSON). Defense-
in-depth: if Checkov and kyverno-json disagree on the same plan, the
divergence is visible (two PCRs with different results for the same
resource).
**Accepted into:** REQ-300. Phase P3.
**Confidence:** 0.82
**Pattern:** domain invariant → declarative policy (the v1.25 thesis
applied to the securities domain — the most novel use of kyverno-json
in v1.26).
**Source:** The pilot's settlement service records matches as
transactions on the chain; settlement finality = block commit. The
NORTH_STAR Objective #2 (provable trust) says trust should be a policy
artifact, not a promise. Today settlement finality is a runtime
property of the chain; making it a declarative policy turns it into an
auditable gate.
**Idea:** A kyverno-json policy over the settlement-service status JSON
asserting `all_committed: true` before any promotion (qa→prod). The
securities-specific extension of v1.25's policy engine. The policy is
skip-when-kj-absent (graceful).
**Accepted into:** REQ-315. Phase P3.
### I5 — Meta-policy over the merged PCR list ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-303)
### I6 — Pilot-estate regression capability (CAP-025) ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-316)
**Category:** architecture, quality
**Confidence:** 0.90
**Pattern:** the policy result list is itself a policy target (the most
novel use of kyverno-json in v1.25).
**Source:** `core/confidence_signal.py` PENALTY hardcode (critical
override), the D-118 tagging cross-check.
**Idea:** `block-on-any-critical` (declarative "critical = block") +
`tagging-rules-agree` (Checkov vs kj agree). The meta-policies consume
the merged PCR list as their payload. The critical-block meta-policy is
the declarative source of truth; the `confidence_signal.py` hard-override
stays as defense-in-depth (D-119).
**Accepted into:** REQ-303. Phase P3.
**Category:** quality, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.88
**Pattern:** manual e2e → regression-gated capability (the v1.0 CAP
pattern applied to the pilot).
**Source:** `core/regression_verify.py` has CAP-013..024 (live-AWS +
local tiers). The pilot estate is a new live-AWS capability —
"contract resolve → adapter compile → terraform plan → policy scan →
confidence signal → attestation → outbox record" against
`581513795199`. Without a regression CAP, the pilot could silently
decay.
**Idea:** CAP-025 (live-pilot-apply) in the regression gate. The
round-trip assertion. Grounds the pilot as a maintained capability,
not a one-shot demo.
**Accepted into:** REQ-316. Phase P3.
### I6 — Env-transition destroy as a declarative policy ❌ DEFERRED
### I7 — DynamoDB L1 primitive ✅ ACCEPTED (REQ-322)
**Category:** architecture, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.95
**Pattern:** missing primitive → authored module (the v1.7 + v1.8
module-build-out pattern).
**Source:** RESEARCH §3.4 — no `modules/l1/dynamodb/` exists. The
blockchain exchange's ledger table needs it. The adapter is
stateless/registry-driven (no `TYPE_MAP`); a new stack type requires a
new L1 module, not an adapter change.
**Idea:** Author `modules/l1/dynamodb/` (interface.json +
terraform/main.tf + README.md + instance.json + registry.json entry).
The single platform-side module build-out for the milestone. Follows
the `s3`/`rds` primitive template. Encryption + PITR enabled per v1.8
NFR defaults.
**Accepted into:** REQ-322. Phase P3.
### I8 — Stale `adapters/README.md` TYPE_MAP references ❌ DEFERRED (scope)
**Category:** improvement
**Confidence:** 0.55 (below threshold — deferred, not rejected)
**Pattern:** imperative lifecycle Python → declarative policy.
**Source:** `core/env_transition.py` (v1.24 detect-and-destroy).
**Idea:** The v1.24 env-transition destroy logic (detect env change via
DynamoDB, destroy prior env, fail-closed) is imperative Python. A
declarative kyverno-json policy could assert "if `environment` changed
on a stable `contract.id`, a destroy event MUST precede the apply" —
turning the lifecycle enforcement into an auditable policy artifact.
**Reason deferred:** The env-transition logic is *stateful* (DynamoDB
queries, terraform state inspection) — kyverno-json policies are
*stateless* (payload in, PCRs out). A policy can assert the *contract*
shape (the env value is valid) but not the *lifecycle* (the prior env
was destroyed). The stateful check stays in `core/env_transition.py`;
a future milestone could emit a `nova.env.destroyed` event that a
kyverno-json policy then asserts is present in the evidence stream
(event-as-policy). Recorded as a future-idea, not a v1.25 requirement.
**Confidence:** 0.70 (above threshold, but scoped into REQ-321)
**Pattern:** stale doc → corrected doc.
**Source:** `adapters/README.md:49-54` references the deleted
`TYPE_MAP`/`INPUT_MAP`/`OUTPUT_MAP` — contradicts `adapter.py:1-11` +
`modules/STANDARDS.md:212-214`.
**Idea:** Fix the stale references as part of the docs phase.
**Reason deferred as a standalone idea:** Already captured in REQ-321

P4 docs.
### I7 — Drift detection as policy ❌ DEFERRED
## Tier 3 — Cross-project (deferred — multi-project, but cross-project sharing disabled)
**Category:** security, coverage
**Confidence:** 0.40 (below threshold — deferred)
**Pattern:** scheduled job → policy over the drift report.
**Source:** NORTH_STAR.md Non-Goal #4 (drift detection scheduled job,
deferred — D-096 + no scheduler).
**Idea:** A kyverno-json policy over a terraform drift report could
assert "no drifted resources" declaratively. But drift detection itself
requires a scheduled `terraform plan -detailed-exitcode` job, which is
deferred (no scheduler). The policy is the easy part; the emitter is the
blocking dependency.
**Reason deferred:** Blocked by D-096 + no scheduler (same as NORTH_STAR
Non-Goal #4). The policy shape is documented for when the emitter ships.
## Tier 3 — Cross-project (deferred — single project)
### I8 — Cross-project policy sharing ❌ DEFERRED (config)
### I9 — Cross-project policy sharing ❌ DEFERRED (config)
**Category:** improvement
**Confidence:** N/A
@@ -134,24 +154,41 @@ Non-Goal #4). The policy shape is documented for when the emitter ships.
**Source:** `config.json ideation.cross_project.enabled: false`.
**Idea:** In a multi-project org, kyverno-json policies could be shared

**Reason deferred:** `cross_project.enabled: false`. Even though
v1.26 is multi-project (acdl + nova-blockchain-exchange),

### I10 — Consumer-repo CI scaffolding as a reusable template ❌ DEFERRED
**Category:** improvement
**Confidence:** 0.55 (below threshold — deferred, not rejected)
**Pattern:** one-off CI → reusable template.
**Source:** The consumer repo (`nova-blockchain-exchange`) needs its
own CI (`ci.yml` — lint + pytest). If Nova expects many consumers, a
reusable consumer-CI template would reduce onboarding friction.
**Idea:** A `nova-consumer-template` repo (or a
`.github/workflow-templates/` dir) that new consumers instantiate.
**Reason deferred:** Nova has 1 consumer today (the pilot). A template
is premature abstraction until the 2nd consumer arrives. The pilot's
CI is authored directly (REQ-310..312 tests). Recorded for when the
3rd consumer onboards.

they may activate when their blockers lift).
- The accepted ideas are the **quality improvement** the user asked for

settlement-finality); I6 gates the pilot as a maintained capability;
I7 is the single platform-side module build-out.

## Active personas
## Active Roster (5)
### lead-developer
- **Domain:** coordination + docs
- **Frameworks:** []
- **Constraints:** ["pragmatic", "battle-tested defaults", "docs match code", "swap boundary is the moat"]
- **Territory:**
- `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` (§12.7 Policy Engine Registry — NEW)
- `.ciagent/PROJECT.md` (v1.25 section)
- `.ciagent/REQUIREMENTS.md` (v1.25 section)
- `.ciagent/ROADMAP.md` (v1.25 section)
- `.ciagent/PLAN.md`, `.ciagent/RESEARCH.md`, `.ciagent/CLARIFY.md`,
`.ciagent/GRILL.md`, `.ciagent/PERSONAS.md`
- `docs/METRICS.md` (swappable engine narrative — REQ-307)
- **Reason:** Owns the milestone coordination + the architecture
narrative. The swap boundary (PolicyEngine protocol) is the moat per
Strategic Objective #2 — the lead-developer owns the boundary
description in ARCHITECTURE.md §12.7 and the docs/METRICS.md note.
No Python policy code (backend-engineer + policy-engineer territory).
No UI (frontend-engineer deactivated).
### 1. lead-developer (active)
- **active:** true
- **phase_specific:** false
- **reason:** Coordinates task decomposition + resolves conflicts between
engineering personas. Owns the milestone narrative (PROJECT.md,
ROADMAP.md, ARCHITECTURE.md §12.8). Final architectural decisions when
personas disagree (e.g. where the outcome-backfill emitter lives).
- **domain:** project coordination, milestone narrative, cross-persona
conflict resolution.
- **frameworks:** none (coordination role).
- **territory:** `.ciagent/`, `docs/METRICS.md`, `adapters/README.md`,
`modules/README.md`, `modules/STANDARDS.md`.
- **constraints:** does not write Python/Terraform (delegates to
backend/data-engineer); does not author policies (delegates to
policy-engineer); does not author chain code (delegates to
blockchain-engineer).
### backend-engineer
- **Domain:** backend (Python + bash + pipeline wiring)
- **Frameworks:** ["boto3", "terraform"]
- **Constraints:** ["api-first", "strict-typing", "engine-agnostic confidence signal", "fail-soft when kj absent"]
- **Territory:**
- `core/policy_engine.py` (NEW — PolicyEngine Protocol + PolicyEngineRegistry + NullEngine)
- `core/contract_resolver.py` (MODIFIED — invoke registry pre/post resolve)
- `scripts/run_platform.sh` (MODIFIED — Step 5 kyverno-json parallel pass)
- `scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` (NEW)
- `tests/test_policy_engine.py` (NEW — protocol conformance, registry, NullEngine)
- `tests/test_run_platform_plan_json_policies.py` (NEW — script-substring assertion)
- `.github/workflows/ci.yml` + `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` (MODIFIED — Go + kj install)
- **Reason:** Owns the Python protocol layer + the pipeline wiring. The
`PolicyEngine` Protocol + `PolicyEngineRegistry` are Python structural-
typing constructs (PEP 544) — backend-engineer's strict-typing
constraint. The `contract_resolver.py` wiring + `run_platform.sh`
Step 5 are backend territory. Does NOT write kyverno-json policy
files (policy-engineer territory) — only the Python that *invokes* the
engine. Does NOT modify the confidence signal (it already consumes
`list[PolicyCheckResult]` engine-agnostically — PROJECT.md hard-
constraint).
### 2. backend-engineer (active)
- **active:** true
- **phase_specific:** false
- **reason:** Owns the platform-side Python changes: confidence signal
escalation reason (REQ-318), outcome-backfill emitter (REQ-317),
env-JSON state_backend wiring (REQ-319), adapter test updates for
DynamoDB (REQ-322), regression CAP-025 (REQ-316).
- **domain:** core Python (confidence_signal.py, metrics/, adapter.py,
regression_verify.py, contract_resolver.py), run_platform.sh wiring.
- **frameworks:** Python 3.12, pytest, boto3, SQLite, DynamoDB.
- **territory:** `core/confidence_signal.py`, `core/metrics/`,
`adapters/terraform/adapter.py`, `core/regression_verify.py`,
`core/environments/`, `scripts/run_platform.sh`, `tests/test_adapter.py`,
`tests/test_confidence_signal.py`, `tests/test_outcome_backfill.py`,
`tests/test_regression_pilot.py`.
- **constraints:** does not change `schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json`
(v1.25 moat, D-211); does not change `schemas/contract.schema.json`
(no schema breaks, D-213); does not author Terraform modules
(delegates to data-engineer for DynamoDB); does not author policies
(delegates to policy-engineer); does not author chain code (delegates
to blockchain-engineer).
### policy-engineer
- **Domain:** policy (declarative compliance rules)
- **Frameworks:** ["kyverno-json", "jmespath", "kyverno ValidatingPolicy"]
- **Constraints:** ["declarative-policies", "no-imperative-rules", "schema-validated", "severity-via-annotation", "assertion-trees-not-foreach"]
- **Territory:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/` (NEW — engine impl + __init__.py + README)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/kyverno_json_engine.py` (NEW — KyvernoJsonEngine)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/` (NEW — all 4 target dirs: contract/, stack-ir/, plan-json/, meta/, regression/)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/_smoke.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/README.md` (MODIFIED — new adapter row + PolicyEngine Protocol section)
- `tests/test_kyverno_json_engine.py` (NEW — PCR schema validity, defensive parsing)
- `tests/test_stack_ir_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/test_plan_json_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/test_meta_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/test_regression_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/stack_ir/`, `tests/fixtures/plan_json/`, `tests/fixtures/capability_inventory.json` (NEW)
- `modules/STANDARDS.md` (MODIFIED — Policy authoring standard section — REQ-307)
- **Reason:** The policy-engineer owns the declarative policy artifacts.
kyverno-json's `ValidatingPolicy` + assertion trees + JMESPath is a
distinct framework from backend-engineer's fastify/hono and requires
its own constraints: no imperative rules (everything is an assertion
tree), severity via the `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` annotation (not
in the engine adapter), no `forEach` (use the `~` modifier). The
adapter pattern (engine ↔ protocol ↔ registry) is backend-engineer
territory, but the policy *content* and the engine *translation*
(`_to_pcr()`) are policy-engineer territory because they require
kyverno-json output-shape knowledge. Created per RESEARCH.md §4 — this
is a phase-spanning persona (active for P1..P4), not phase-specific.
### 3. data-engineer (active)
- **active:** true
- **phase_specific:** false
- **reason:** Owns the DynamoDB L1 primitive (REQ-322) — the single
platform-side module build-out. Owns the metrics cold store
outcome-backfill integration (REQ-317, the `fact_decision.outcome`
column + `backfilled_at` timestamp). Owns the env-JSON data updates
(REQ-319, `core/environments/*.json` account_id + state_backend.bucket).
- **domain:** Terraform modules (`modules/l1/`), schema definitions
(`interface.json`), registry (`modules/registry.json`), metrics cold
store (`metrics/nova_metrics.db`, `core/metrics/collector.py`).
- **frameworks:** Terraform, JSON, SQLite, DynamoDB, boto3.
- **territory:** `modules/l1/dynamodb/`, `modules/registry.json`,
`modules/README.md`, `core/environments/*.json`,
`core/metrics/collector.py`, `tests/test_adapter.py` (DynamoDB
emission test).
- **constraints:** does not change the adapter (stateless, v1.11);
follows the v1.8 NFR defaults (encryption + deletion protection +
PITR); follows the module standards (`modules/STANDARDS.md`).
### data-engineer
- **Domain:** data (config schema + structured fixtures)
- **Frameworks:** ["jsonschema", "yaml"]
- **Constraints:** ["schema-first", "type-safe config", "backward-compatible additions"]
- **Territory:**
- `.ciagent/config.json` (MODIFIED — new `policy` object: engine + policy_root)
- `schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json` (READ-ONLY — no change per D-116)
- `schemas/README.md` (MODIFIED — note engine: "kyverno" shared by K8s adapter + kj)
- `tests/fixtures/capability_inventory.json` (NEW — clean + drifted inventory fixtures for regression policies)
- **Reason:** The `config.json.policy` object is a schema-first addition
(new top-level key with `engine` + `policy_root` fields). The
capability-inventory JSON fixtures for the regression-gate policies
(REQ-304) are structured data — the data-engineer owns the fixture
shape. The `policy_check_result.schema.json` is read-only (D-116 — no
enum change); the data-engineer documents the `engine: "kyverno"`
sharing in `schemas/README.md`. No migrations (no database). No Python
(backend-engineer + policy-engineer territory).
### 4. policy-engineer (active, custom — added in v1.25)
- **active:** true
- **phase_specific:** false
- **reason:** Owns the kyverno-json policy authoring for the pilot:
settlement-finality (REQ-315), pilot-readiness (REQ-320). Extends
v1.25's policy engine to the securities domain.
- **domain:** declarative policies (kyverno-json ValidatingPolicy YAML),
JMESPath assertions, policy tests.
- **frameworks:** kyverno-json, JMESPath, JSON, pytest.
- **territory:** `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/pilot-readiness/`,
`adapters/kyverno-json/policies/settlement-finality/`,
`tests/test_settlement_finality_policy.py`,
`tests/test_pilot_readiness_policy.py`.
- **constraints:** policies are declarative (no imperative Python);
`is_configured()` guard skips gracefully when `kj` absent; follows
the v1.25 policy-authoring standard (`modules/STANDARDS.md` policy
section + `adapters/kyverno-json/README.md`).
## Deactivated personas
### 5. blockchain-engineer (active, custom, phase-specific — added in v1.26)
- **active:** true
- **phase_specific:** true (created for v1.26 P1; removed after P1
unless the chain has ongoing work in P2..P4)
- **reason:** The pilot introduces a homegrown blockchain — a domain
beyond the default four personas. Owns the chain core (block, ledger,
validator, REQ-310), the order-matching engine (REQ-311), the
settlement service (REQ-312), and the consumer `contract.yaml`
(REQ-313) + deploy invocation (REQ-314).
- **domain:** blockchain consensus (PoA, single validator), order
matching (limit order book, price-time priority), settlement
(T+1, finality = block commit), consumer-repo deploy model.
- **frameworks:** Python 3.12 (the chain is Python, not Solidity/Go —
it's a homegrown ledger, not a smart-contract platform), pytest,
YAML (contract.yaml), GitHub Actions / Gitea Actions (deploy.yml
invocation).
- **territory:** `/root/nova-blockchain-exchange/` (the consumer repo:
`chain/`, `engine/`, `settlement/`, `contract.yaml`,
`contracts/*.yml`, `.github/workflows/deploy.yml`,
`.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`, `tests/`).
- **constraints:** the chain is deterministic (same inputs → same block)
— it is automation, not AI (NORTH_STAR Objective #2 tenet); equities
only (D-200); single validator PoA (D-201); the consumer deploy MUST
go through `deploy.yml@v1.25` (no direct terraform apply); the
contract MUST validate against `schemas/contract.schema.json`.
### frontend-engineer
## Deactivated (1)
### frontend-engineer (inactive)
- **active:** false
- **Reason:** ACDL has no frontend (no package.json — confirmed in
config.json personas.personas[frontend-engineer].reason). v1.25 adds
no UI work — the policy engine is backend + policy artifacts only.
Deactivated per the v1.15+ convention.
- **phase_specific:** false
- **reason:** The pilot has no UI — the blockchain exchange is a
backend service (matching engine + settlement). The consumer repo
has no web/frontend. Reactivated if a future milestone adds a trading
dashboard.
## Phase-Specific Notes
- **blockchain-engineer** is created for v1.26 P1 (blockchain core +
order engine + settlement). If P2..P4 have no chain changes, the
persona is removed after P1 (the chain is a stable substrate for the
pilot run). If P2 (consumer-contract-and-deploy) requires chain
adjustments, the persona stays through P2.
- **policy-engineer** is active for P3 (pilot-metrics-and-policies) +
may consult on P4 (pilot run policy verification).
- **data-engineer** is active for P3 (DynamoDB primitive + outcome
backfill + env-JSON) + P4 (regression CAP-025 may touch the registry).
## Territory Enforcement
- **Mode:** `warn` (the pilot is cross-territory by nature — the
consumer repo + the platform repo share the milestone; the
blockchain-engineer works in the consumer repo, backend/data/policy
engineers work in the platform repo).
- **Cross-territory collisions:** REQ-322 (DynamoDB primitive) is
data-engineer territory, but the adapter test update
(`tests/test_adapter.py` `EXPECTED_L1_KEYS`) is backend-engineer
territory. The lead-developer resolves: data-engineer authors the
module + registry; backend-engineer updates the test assertion
(the test is backend territory, the module is data territory).

## Wave model
Each phase is a **vertical slice** (end-to-end: policy files + Python
wiring + tests + docs). Phases are ordered by dependency: the engine
protocol (P1) must exist before policies (P2/P3) can be wired; the
pipeline wiring (P3) must exist before the meta-policies (P3) can
consume the merged PCR list; the regression-gate policies (P4) are
independent of the pipeline and can be authored in parallel with P3's
tests, but ship after P3 because they reference the engine registry
finalized in P1. Within each phase, the waves are the persona task
groups (parallelizable across personas when `parallelization.enabled:
true`, `max_concurrent_agents: 5`).
## Phase breakdown
### Phase P1 — engine-core (Wave 1, backend-engineer + policy-engineer + data-engineer)
**Type:** `feat` (engine protocol + registry + kyverno-json engine adapter + install + tests)
**Requirements:** REQ-291, REQ-292, REQ-293, REQ-294, REQ-308, REQ-309
**Must-haves:**
- `core/policy_engine.py` — `PolicyEngine` Protocol (PEP 544) +
`PolicyEngineRegistry` (selects from `config.json.policy.engine`) +
`NullEngine` fallback (emits `SKIPPED` when `policy` key absent)
(REQ-291)
- `.ciagent/config.json` gains `policy` object: `{"engine":
"kyverno-json", "policy_root":
"adapters/kyverno-json/policies"}` (REQ-292)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/kyverno_json_engine.py` — `KyvernoJsonEngine`
implementing the protocol: `is_configured()` guards on `which kj`;
`evaluate()` writes payload to temp JSON, invokes
`kj scan --policy <dir> --payload <json> --output json`, translates
native output → `list[dict]` PCR records (`engine: "kyverno"`,
`ruleId` prefixed `KJ_<policy_name>`, severity from
`nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` annotation); defensive parsing
(malformed → `error` PCR, never exception); `is_configured()==false`
→ single `SKIPPED` PCR (`KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED`) (REQ-293)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/__init__.py` exports `KyvernoJsonEngine`;
`adapters/kyverno-json/policies/_smoke.json` trivial
`require-contract-id` policy for round-trip validation;
`scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` runs
`go install github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json/cmd/kj@latest`;
`.github/workflows/ci.yml` + `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` install Go + kj
(cached) (REQ-294)
- `tests/test_policy_engine.py` — protocol conformance, registry
selection, unknown-engine `KeyError`, `NullEngine` fallback,
`is_configured()` false when `which kj` absent (mocked) (REQ-308)
- `tests/test_kyverno_json_engine.py` — `evaluate()` returns PCR dicts
validating against `schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json` (via
`jsonschema`); defensive parsing (malformed kyverno-json output →
`error` PCR); `is_configured()==false` → `SKIPPED` with
`KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED`; `pytest.skip("kj not installed")` when
`which kj` absent (REQ-309)
**Vertical slice:** The `PolicyEngineRegistry.get_engine()` returns a
configured `KyvernoJsonEngine` that can `evaluate()` a trivial payload
against `_smoke.json` and produce a valid PCR list. The confidence
signal is unchanged — it already consumes `list[PolicyCheckResult]`.
The platform runs with or without the `kj` binary (`is_configured()`
guard). All existing tests pass (NullEngine fallback when `policy` key
absent in test config — but the v1.25 config.json *sets* the key, so
existing tests that use the real config get `KyvernoJsonEngine` with
`is_configured()==false` → `SKIPPED`).

### Phase P2 — contract + stack-IR policies (Wave 2, policy-engineer + backend-engineer)
## Phase 0 — Pre-Execution (complete, tag v1.25.0)
**Type:** `feat` (policies + resolver wiring + tests)
SPECIFY → CLARIFY → RESEARCH → IDEATE → PLAN → GRILL. All `.ciagent/`
MD, research, plans. Ships as `v1.25.0` on the v1.25.x line.
**Requirements:** REQ-295, REQ-296, REQ-297, REQ-298, REQ-299
**Pre-run (Workstream A, on main before branch gate):**
- A1: flaky test fix (commit `8c68d68`, pushed).
- A2: ACDL_*→NOVA_* bootstrap migration (commit `f844fea`, pushed).
- A3: AWS bootstrap — S3 state bucket + DynamoDB outbox created.
- A4: `nova-blockchain-exchange` Gitea repo created + cloned.
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/contract/` — 4 policies over consumer
contract JSON: `require-id-pattern.json`,
`require-env-in-enum.json`, `require-infrastructure-min-1.json`,
`forbid-unknown-fields.json` — each a `ValidatingPolicy` with one
`validate.assert` rule using JMESPath against the payload root;
severity via `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` annotation (REQ-295)
- `core/contract_resolver.py` invokes
`PolicyEngineRegistry.get_engine().evaluate(contract_dict,
policies/contract/, contract_id)` **before** resolving; failures
feed the `policy` input as `fail` PCRs (no resolver exit — confidence
signal decides the gate, `--soft-fail` pattern); emits
`nova.policy.evaluated` metrics event (REQ-296)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/stack-ir/` — 3 policies over
resolved Stack IR: `require-tagging-standard.json` (ports
`nova_tagging.py` — `nova:owner` + `nova:environment` tags on every
`resources[]` entry), `forbid-public-ingress.json` (v1.0 demo rule),
`require-encryption-by-default.json` (v1.8 D-encryption-default);
`~` modifier iterates `resources[]` (REQ-297)
- `core/contract_resolver.py` invokes the engine with the resolved
Stack IR and `policies/stack-ir/` **after** resolving; resulting PCRs
appended to the contract-policy PCRs; resolver return values and
exceptions unchanged (additive) (REQ-298)
- `tests/test_stack_ir_policies.py` + `tests/fixtures/stack_ir/` —
passing IR (all tags + encryption) + failing IR (missing tags, public
ingress, plaintext bucket); each policy in isolation + full dir as
bundle; `pytest.skip("kj not installed")` when `which kj` absent
(REQ-299)
**Vertical slice:** A consumer contract passes through the resolver
and produces two PCR lists (contract policies pre-resolve, stack-IR
policies post-resolve) that feed the confidence signal. A contract
with a bad `id` or missing tags produces `fail` PCRs that lower the
confidence score. The resolver's existing tests pass unchanged (the
policy call is additive — it does not change resolver return values
or exceptions).
**Files touched:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/contract/require-id-pattern.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/contract/require-env-in-enum.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/contract/require-infrastructure-min-1.json` (NEW)

- `tests/test_stack_ir_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/stack_ir/passing.json` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/stack_ir/failing.json` (NEW)
**Verification:** `pytest tests/test_contract_resolver.py
tests/test_stack_ir_policies.py tests/test_policy_engine.py -v`
(existing resolver tests pass; new policy tests pass or skip-without-
kj). `python3 -m py_compile core/contract_resolver.py`.
**Phase 0 stages (on `phase/00-specify-clarify-research-plan`):**
- SPECIFY: v1.26 established in config.json + PROJECT.md + ROADMAP.md +
`.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/{PROJECT,REQUIREMENTS,ROADMAP}.md`.
- CLARIFY: 10 ambiguities resolved (D-200..D-213).
- RESEARCH: PoA blockchain, deploy model, DynamoDB gap (REQ-322),
metric grounding, persona assessment (5 personas).
- IDEATE: 7 ideas accepted (I1..I7 → REQ-315..322), 3 deferred.
- PLAN: this file.
- GRILL: adversarial review (binding verdicts).

### Phase P3 — plan-JSON policies + meta-orchestration + pipeline wiring (Wave 3, policy-engineer + backend-engineer)
## Phase 1 — blockchain-core (tag v1.25.1)
**Type:** `feat` (plan-JSON policies + meta-policies + run_platform.sh wiring + tests)
**Goal:** The consumer repo has a working homegrown PoA blockchain +
order-matching engine + settlement service. All unit tests pass in the
consumer repo's own CI.
**Requirements:** REQ-300, REQ-301, REQ-302, REQ-303
**Project:** `nova-blockchain-exchange` (consumer repo).
**Branch:** `nova-blockchain-exchange/phase/01-blockchain-core`.
**Persona:** blockchain-engineer (primary), lead-developer (coordination).
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/plan-json/` — 3 policies over
`terraform show -json` output: `forbid-plaintext-secrets.json` (ports
CKV_AWS_41/45/46), `forbid-iam-wildcard.json` (ports CKV_AWS_1/40),
`require-kms-reference.json` (ports CKV_AWS_7/33); JMESPath over
`planned_values.root_module.resources[]` (REQ-300)
- `run_platform.sh` Step 5 gains a parallel kyverno-json pass: after
Checkov/Wiz produce raw PCRs, the script runs
`kj scan --policy adapters/kyverno-json/policies/plan-json/
--payload <tfshow.json> -o json` and pipes through
`adapters/kyverno-json/kyverno_json_engine.py` to produce a second
PCR list; both lists concatenated and fed to the confidence signal;
`nova.policy.evaluated` event with both engine names; when
`which kj` is false, logs and proceeds with Checkov/Wiz list only
(no hard failure) (REQ-301)
- `tests/test_plan_json_policies.py` + `tests/fixtures/plan_json/` —
passing plan (no secrets, no wildcard, KMS alias) + failing plan
(plaintext password, `Action: "*"`, inline KMS key); policies in
isolation + bundle; `tests/test_run_platform_plan_json_policies.py`
asserts `run_platform.sh` has the kyverno-json Step 5 block +
concatenates PCR lists (script-substring assertion, pattern from
`tests/test_pipeline.py:79-95`) (REQ-302)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/meta/` — `block-on-any-critical.json`
(asserts no PCR in merged list has `severity: critical` + `result:
fail`; if any does, emits `fail` PCR `KJ_META_BLOCK_CRITICAL`
severity `critical` — declarative source of truth; the
`confidence_signal.py` hard-override stays as defense-in-depth per
D-119) + `tagging-rules-agree.json` (cross-checks Checkov
`NOVA_TAG_NAMING` vs kj `KJ_REQUIRE_TAGGING_STANDARD` by
`resourceRef`; divergence emits `error` PCR per D-118);
`tests/test_meta_policies.py` (REQ-303)
### Wave 1 — chain core (REQ-310)
- **Task 1.1** (blockchain-engineer): `chain/block.py` — Block dataclass
(index, timestamp, prev_hash, transactions, nonce, hash).
`compute_hash()` deterministic (SHA-256). Unit test: `test_block.py`.
- **Task 1.2** (blockchain-engineer): `chain/ledger.py` — Ledger class:
`append_block()`, `verify_chain()`, `get_block(index)`,
`get_latest_block()`. Genesis block on init. Unit test: `test_ledger.py`.
- **Task 1.3** (blockchain-engineer): `chain/validator.py` — PoA
validator: single validator (config-driven), `propose_block(transactions)`
→ Block, `commit_block(block)`. Unit test: `test_validator.py`.
**Vertical slice:** `run_platform.sh` Step 5 produces a merged PCR list
(Checkov/Wiz + kj plan-JSON policies + kj meta-policies over the
merged list) that feeds the confidence signal. A plan with a plaintext
secret produces two `fail` PCRs (one Checkov, one kj) for the same
resource — visible defense-in-depth. A critical finding anywhere
produces a `KJ_META_BLOCK_CRITICAL` meta-PCR that the confidence
signal's hard-override blocks. The pipeline runs with or without `kj`
(graceful skip).
### Wave 2 — order engine + settlement (REQ-311, REQ-312) — parallel with Wave 1 tail
- **Task 2.1** (blockchain-engineer): `engine/order.py` — Order
dataclass (id, side, symbol, price, size, timestamp).
- **Task 2.2** (blockchain-engineer): `engine/order_book.py` —
OrderBook: `add_order(order)`, `match_orders()` → list of Match
(price-time priority, partial fills). Unit test: `test_order_book.py`.
- **Task 2.3** (blockchain-engineer): `settlement/service.py` —
SettlementService: `settle(match)` → SettlementTransaction,
`submit(ledger)`. Idempotent (re-settling a match is a no-op once
final). Finality = block commit. Unit test: `test_settlement.py`.
**Files touched:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/plan-json/forbid-plaintext-secrets.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/plan-json/forbid-iam-wildcard.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/plan-json/require-kms-reference.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/meta/block-on-any-critical.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/meta/tagging-rules-agree.json` (NEW)
- `scripts/run_platform.sh` (MODIFIED — Step 5 kj parallel pass)
- `tests/test_plan_json_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/test_meta_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/test_run_platform_plan_json_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/plan_json/passing.json` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/plan_json/failing.json` (NEW)
### Wave 3 — consumer CI (cross-cutting)
- **Task 3.1** (blockchain-engineer): `.github/workflows/ci.yml` +
`.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — lint + pytest on chain/engine/settlement.
- **Task 3.2** (lead-developer): `nova-blockchain-exchange/README.md` —
repo overview + dev setup.
**Verification:** `pytest tests/test_plan_json_policies.py
tests/test_meta_policies.py tests/test_run_platform_plan_json_policies.py
tests/test_pipeline.py -v` (new tests pass or skip-without-kj; existing
pipeline tests pass). `python3 -m py_compile` on any modified Python.
Shellcheck on `run_platform.sh` if available.
**Must-haves (verify before ship):**
- `pytest tests/` in the consumer repo passes (chain integrity, hash
determinism, genesis, append/verify, match priority, partial fills,
settlement idempotency, finality check).
- The chain is deterministic (replay produces the same hash chain).
- The consumer CI workflow runs on push.
**Ship:** tag `v1.25.1`, merge `phase/01` → `milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation`,
Gitea release (best-effort). Delete `phase/01`.
---
### Phase P4 — regression-gate policies + docs (Wave 4, policy-engineer + data-engineer + lead-developer)
## Phase 2 — consumer-contract-and-deploy (tag v1.25.2)
**Type:** `feat` (regression policies) + `docs` (adapter READMEs + ARCHITECTURE + STANDARDS + METRICS)
**Goal:** The consumer repo declares its infrastructure via
`contract.yaml` (validated against the platform's schema) + invokes the
platform's `deploy.yml@v1.25` workflow. The contract references the
`microservice` (ECS), `dynamodb`, + `s3` modules.
**Requirements:** REQ-304, REQ-305, REQ-306, REQ-307
**Project:** `nova-blockchain-exchange` (consumer repo) + `acdl`
(platform repo — for the `deploy.yml@v1.25` ref + the `v1.25` floating
tag).
**Branch:** `nova-blockchain-exchange/phase/02-contract-and-deploy`.
**Persona:** blockchain-engineer (contract authoring), data-engineer
(registry/DynamoDB dependency check), lead-developer (deploy.yml ref).
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/regression/` — 3 policies over
capability-inventory JSON frontmatter: `cap-013-adapter-dedup.json`,
`cap-023-metrics-collector.json`, `cap-024-deck-structure.json`;
emit `pass`/`fail` PCRs per capability; the existing
`core/regression_verify.py` is kept (drives the CI gate); the
policies are the declarative mirror (REQ-304)
- `tests/test_regression_policies.py` +
`tests/fixtures/capability_inventory/clean.json` +
`tests/fixtures/capability_inventory/drifted.json` — clean (all caps
pass) + drifted (duplicate adapter, missing metric status, broken
deck arc); regression gate still 287/287 baseline (new tests
additive, skip-without-kj) (REQ-305)
- `adapters/README.md` gains new kyverno-json adapter row + "Policy
Engine Protocol" section (Protocol, registry, swap boundary,
how-to-add-OpaEngine); `adapters/kyverno-json/README.md` documents
the engine, install path, policy directory layout, 4 policy
categories (REQ-306)
- `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` §12.7 (added in RESEARCH) is finalized;
`schemas/README.md` notes `engine: "kyverno"` shared by K8s adapter
+ kj (distinguished by `ruleId` prefix); `modules/STANDARDS.md`
gains "Policy authoring standard" section for module owners;
`docs/METRICS.md` notes the policy engine is swappable (Strategic
Objective #2 — provable trust via a replaceable substrate) (REQ-307)
### Wave 1 — contract (REQ-313)
- **Task 1.1** (blockchain-engineer): `contract.yaml` — id
(`blkex`), name (`blockchain-exchange`), environment (dev),
infrastructure block (microservice + dynamodb + s3).
- **Task 1.2** (blockchain-engineer): `contracts/blockchain-exchange.dev.yml`,
`.qa.yml`, `.prod.yml` — per-env variants.
- **Task 1.3** (blockchain-engineer): `tests/test_contract_validates.py`
— schema validation against the platform's
`schemas/contract.schema.json`.
**Vertical slice:** The regression gate's capability checks are now
declarative policies auditable as artifacts. A new module owner can
read `modules/STANDARDS.md` "Policy authoring standard" and write a
per-module kyverno-json policy. A new engineer can read
`adapters/README.md` "Policy Engine Protocol" and implement an
`OpaEngine`. The 287/287 baseline is unchanged.
### Wave 2 — deploy invocation (REQ-314)
- **Task 2.1** (blockchain-engineer): `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` —
`uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25` with
`with: { contract: contract.yaml, mode: full, environment: dev }`.
- **Task 2.2** (blockchain-engineer): `.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml` —
byte-identical mirror.
- **Task 2.3** (blockchain-engineer): `tests/test_deploy_workflow_invocation.py`
— asserts the `uses:` ref + inputs.
**Files touched:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/regression/cap-013-adapter-dedup.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/regression/cap-023-metrics-collector.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/regression/cap-024-deck-structure.json` (NEW)
- `tests/test_regression_policies.py` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/capability_inventory/clean.json` (NEW)
- `tests/fixtures/capability_inventory/drifted.json` (NEW)
- `adapters/README.md` (MODIFIED — new row + PolicyEngine Protocol section)
- `adapters/kyverno-json/README.md` (NEW)
- `schemas/README.md` (MODIFIED — engine enum note)
- `modules/STANDARDS.md` (MODIFIED — Policy authoring standard section)
- `docs/METRICS.md` (MODIFIED — swappable engine narrative)
### Wave 3 — platform floating tag (cross-cutting)
- **Task 3.1** (lead-developer, on `acdl` repo): verify the `v1.25`
floating tag exists (created by `release.yml` on merge to main). If
not, create it pointing at the `v1.25.0` tag (Phase 0 ship).
**Verification:** `pytest tests/test_regression_policies.py
tests/test_kyverno_json_engine.py -v` (new tests pass or skip-without-
kj). Full regression gate `pytest tests/` still at 287/287 baseline +
new tests (skip without kj). Manual read of `adapters/README.md` +
`adapters/kyverno-json/README.md` + `modules/STANDARDS.md` policy
section for clarity.
**Must-haves (verify before ship):**
- `contract.yaml` validates against `schemas/contract.schema.json`.
- The deploy workflow invocation asserts the correct `uses:` ref +
inputs.
- The `v1.25` floating tag resolves.
**Ship:** tag `v1.25.2`, merge `phase/02` → milestone, Gitea release.
Delete `phase/02`.
---
### Phase P5 — final review + audit + milestone ship (Final Phase)
## Phase 3 — pilot-metrics-and-policies (tag v1.25.3)
**Type:** `docs` (review + audit + milestone completion)
**Goal:** The platform repo gains the metric-grounding emitters, the
kyverno-json pilot policies, the DynamoDB L1 primitive, the env-JSON
wiring reconciliation, + the pilot regression CAP. The Post-Pilot
metrics are grounded (outcome backfill + escalation reason); the pilot-
readiness + settlement-finality policies are in place.
**Requirements:** All REQ-291..309 (mark complete)
**Project:** `acdl` (platform repo) + `nova-blockchain-exchange`
(consumer repo — the Gitea adapter rewrites the consumer's `deploy.yml`).
**Branch:** `acdl/phase/03-pilot-metrics-and-policies` (platform branch).
**Personas:** backend-engineer (emitters + adapter + regression),
data-engineer (DynamoDB primitive + env JSON + collector),
policy-engineer (kyverno-json policies), lead-developer (Gitea adapter
+ deploy.yml drift + rotation workflow).
**Must-haves:**
- `ciagent-review` multi-persona code review across P1..P4
(lead-developer, backend-engineer, data-engineer, policy-engineer).
Auto-fix P0; flag P1+ for post-hoc review. If P1+ issues found, fix
them in this final phase (not loop back to EXECUTE).
- `ciagent-audit` — reconstruction test (git log ↔ `.ciagent/` files),
`.ciagent/` file discipline, branch hygiene, commit discipline.
Critical issues fixed in this phase.
- `ciagent-ship` (milestone) — merge `phase/05-final-review-ship` →
`milestone/v1.25-kyverno-json` → `main`; tag `v1.24.5` (= the v1.25
release per the prev-minor tagging rule); create Gitea release with
full milestone summary (all phases, all requirements); delete all
milestone branches (local + remote).
- Update `REQUIREMENTS.md` (mark REQ-291..309 complete),
`ROADMAP.md` (mark v1.25 complete), `CHECKPOINT.json`
(milestone_complete: true), `NORTH_STAR.md` (note Strategic
Objective #2 — provable trust via a replaceable policy-engine
substrate).
### Wave 0 — Gitea reusable-workflow adapter (SPEC §10 Q1, resolved by evidence) — lead-developer + blockchain-engineer
> **Highest-priority gap.** The v0.2 P3 `workflow_dispatch` (Gitea
> Actions run id=6199) failed: Gitea Actions rejects cross-repo `uses:`
> (`acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25`) with `expected format
> {owner}/{repo}/.{git_platform}/workflows/{filename}@{ref}`. The
> consumer's `deploy.yml` is frozen at the v0.1 byte-identical mirror;
> the platform adapts (option c — inline checkout-then-call), not
> vice-versa.
- **Task 0.1** (lead-developer): rewrite
`nova-blockchain-exchange/.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml` + byte-identical
`.github/workflows/deploy.yml` — drop the `uses:` indirection; single
`deploy` job on `ubuntu-latest` that `actions/checkout@v4` the consumer,
`actions/checkout@v4` `acdl/acdl` @ `ref: v1.25` into `platform/`,
setup-python 3.12, install deps (jsonschema/pyyaml/boto3 + checkov),
install Terraform 1.9.*, configure AWS (static-key path:
`aws-region: ${{ secrets.AWS_DEFAULT_REGION }}`, `access-key-id` +
`secret-access-key` from `NOVA_AWS_*` secrets; no OIDC token minted),
run `bash platform/scripts/run_platform.sh $MODE_FLAG $ENV_FLAG
contract.yaml`. Preserve `on: workflow_dispatch` inputs (mode choice
default full; environment choice default "") + `permissions: {id-token:
write, contents: read}` + `secrets: inherit`.
- **Task 0.2** (blockchain-engineer): update
`nova-blockchain-exchange/tests/test_deploy_workflow_invocation.py` +
`test_deploy_gitea_invocation.py` — assert no cross-repo `uses:`,
assert `ref: v1.25`, assert `secrets: inherit`, assert
`run_platform.sh` invoked, assert `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` wired.
- **Task 0.3** (lead-developer): `acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml`
stays as the GitHub Actions reference impl (the `workflow_call`
reusable workflow — used by GitHub-hosted consumers); document in
`adapters/README.md` that Gitea consumers use the inline adapter, not
the reusable `uses:`.
**Vertical slice:** The v1.25 milestone is complete: kyverno-json is
the primary policy tool, behind a swappable adapter, with policies
over all 4 Nova artifacts. Tags v1.24.0..v1.24.5 on the v1.24.x line.
The milestone branch merges to main.
### Wave 0.5 — kyverno-json substrate fix (v1.25 skip-masked bug) — backend-engineer
> The v1.25 kyverno-json engine + policies were never validated
> against the real `kj` binary (tests `pytest.skip("kj not installed")`
> when absent). With `kj` now installed (v0.0.3), 3 policy tests
> failed. Root cause: (a) `kj` v0.0.3 does not load `.json` policy
> files (only `.yaml`/`.yml`) — the engine now materializes `.yaml`
> twins at runtime; (b) the `validate` wrapper is not supported —
> `assert` goes directly under the rule; (c) the check syntax was
> inverted (`expression: expected_value`, not `key: expression`);
> (d) the engine `_translate` expected `{"results": [...]}` but `kj`
> returns a bare list with `results[].policy.metadata.name` +
> `results[].rules[].violations[]`. DONE (committed 59d837f). Also
> fixed `scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` (the `cmd/kj@latest` path
> fails — the real binary is `kyverno-json`, symlinked as `kj`).
- **Task 0.5.1** (backend-engineer): rewrite
`adapters/kyverno-json/kyverno_json_engine.py` `_translate` for the
bare-list output format + add `_materialize_yaml_policy_dir` (DONE).
- **Task 0.5.2** (backend-engineer): remove the `validate` wrapper +
fix check syntax across all 16 existing policies (DONE).
- **Task 0.5.3** (backend-engineer): fix
`scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` (DONE).
- **Task 0.5.4** (backend-engineer): resolve pre-existing P2 drift
uncovered by the full-suite run — dynamodb `examples/simple.yml` +
`complex.yml`, `sync_workflows` re-sync, CAP-024 deck path
(`nova-autonomous-cloud-delivery-marp.md`) + slide-count bound +
`class="benefit"` div count (DONE, committed 3735330).
**Verification:** `pytest tests/ -v` full suite passes (287 baseline +
new tests). `git log --oneline` shows the v1.25 phase commits.
`git tag` shows v1.24.0..v1.24.5. `git branch` shows no leftover
milestone/phase branches (all deleted post-ship).
### Wave 1 — DynamoDB primitive (REQ-322) — data-engineer — verify-only (done in P2 W0)
- **Task 1.1** (data-engineer): verify `modules/l1/dynamodb/` resolves
+ emits valid Terraform via `tests/test_adapter.py` (the primitive
shipped in P2 W0; this wave is a re-verify, not re-authoring).
### Wave 2 — metric grounding (REQ-317, REQ-318) — backend-engineer + data-engineer — parallel
- **Task 2.1** (backend-engineer): `core/metrics/outcome_backfill.py` —
`backfill(decision_id, outcome)` updates `fact_decision.outcome` +
`backfilled_at`. Reads run-manifest events.
- **Task 2.2** (backend-engineer): `core/metrics/collector.py` —
invokes backfill after run completion.
- **Task 2.3** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_outcome_backfill.py`.
- **Task 2.4** (backend-engineer): `core/confidence_signal.py` —
`ai.decision.made` gains `escalation_reason: 'confidence'` when
`band == 'block'`.
- **Task 2.5** (backend-engineer): `core/metrics/collector.py` —
persists `escalation_reason` into `fact_run`.
- **Task 2.6** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_confidence_escalation_reason.py`.
### Wave 3 — env-JSON wiring + adapter (REQ-319) — backend-engineer + data-engineer — parallel
- **Task 3.1** (backend-engineer): `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` —
reads `env.state_backend.bucket` when present (fallback to computed
name for backwards compat).
- **Task 3.2** (data-engineer): `core/environments/dev.json` —
`account_id` → `581513795199`, `state_backend.bucket` →
`nova-tfstate-581513795199-us-east-1`.
- **Task 3.3** (data-engineer): `core/environments/{qa,prod,dr}.json` —
`state_backend.bucket` updated; `account_id` stays placeholder
(pilot-readiness policy blocks apply on placeholder, D-208).
- **Task 3.4** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_adapter_state_backend.py`.
- **Task 3.5** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_adapter.py` — add
`dynamodb` to `EXPECTED_L1_KEYS` + a resolution + emission test
(cross-territory: data-engineer authored the module, backend-engineer
owns the test).
### Wave 4 — kyverno-json policies (REQ-315, REQ-320) — policy-engineer — parallel
- **Task 4.1** (policy-engineer):
`adapters/kyverno-json/policies/settlement-finality/all-matches-committed.json`
— kyverno-json policy over settlement-service status JSON (asserts
`all_committed: true`). **Note (G-Q6):** the policy is authored +
tested in v1.26; *enforcement* is deferred to the milestone that
binds qa/prod/dr (D-208 — the policy gates promotions, not dev
applies).
- **Task 4.2** (policy-engineer):
`adapters/kyverno-json/policies/pilot-readiness/no-placeholder-account.json`
— kyverno-json policy over env JSON (asserts
`account_id != "000000000000"`).
- **Task 4.3** (policy-engineer): `tests/test_settlement_finality_policy.py`
— passing + failing fixtures; **runs against real `kj`** (not skipped
— `kj` is installed via `scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh`).
- **Task 4.4** (policy-engineer): `tests/test_pilot_readiness_policy.py`
— passing (real account) + failing (placeholder) fixtures; **runs
against real `kj`** (not skipped).
### Wave 5 — regression CAP (REQ-316) — backend-engineer
- **Task 5.1** (backend-engineer): `core/regression_verify.py` —
CAP-025 (live-pilot-apply): the round-trip assertion.
- **Task 5.2** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_regression_pilot.py`.
### Wave 6 — deploy.yml drift fixes (SPEC §5.1/§5.2) — lead-developer + backend-engineer
> The platform reference `workflows-src/deploy.yml` (synced to
> `.github`+`.gitea`) has three drifts vs the SPEC: (a) `aws-region`
> hardcoded `us-east-1` (SPEC wants `NOVA_AWS_REGION`/`AWS_DEFAULT_REGION`
> from secret); (b) platform checkout `ref: v1.9` (SPEC wants `v1.25`);
> (c) the local `scripts/run_platform.sh` fallback exports raw
> `NOVA_AWS_*` names into shell env (SPEC §5.2 constraint: consume as
> workflow secrets, not shell env — `blocked_env_vars`).
- **Task 6.1** (lead-developer): `workflows-src/deploy.yml` —
`aws-region: ${{ secrets.AWS_DEFAULT_REGION || 'us-east-1' }}`;
platform checkout `ref: v1.25`; re-sync to `.github`+`.gitea`.
- **Task 6.2** (backend-engineer): `scripts/run_platform.sh` — source
`AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` from `.env.secrets` for the local fallback (not
raw `NOVA_AWS_*`); the CI path already consumes secrets via the
`configure-aws-credentials` action.
- **Task 6.3** (backend-engineer): `tests/test_deploy_workflow_env_input.py`
— assert `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` wired + `ref: v1.25` + no raw
`NOVA_AWS_*` in shell env.
### Wave 7 — secret rotation scheduled workflow (SPEC §5.9) — lead-developer
> SPEC §5.9: "the rotation mechanism must *exist* (not have run)."
> A platform-managed scheduled workflow wraps the existing
> `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh` (manual today) on a daily cron.
- **Task 7.1** (lead-developer): `workflows-src/rotate-aws-key.yml` —
`on: { schedule: [{cron: "0 0 * * *"}], workflow_dispatch:}`,
single job that checks out the platform repo + runs
`bash scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh` with `NOVA_AWS_*` bootstrap
secrets; sync to `.github`+`.gitea`.
- **Task 7.2** (lead-developer): verify `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh`
is idempotent (deactivates old key only after the new key propagates
to the Gitea Actions secret store).
- **Task 7.3** (lead-developer): `tests/test_rotate_key_workflow.py` —
structural test (the workflow file declares `schedule` + invokes
`rotate_spike_key.sh`); document in `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` §12.8
that the mechanism exists (v0.2 scope: exists-not-ran per SPEC §5.9).
**Must-haves (verify before ship):**
- `pytest tests/` in the platform repo passes (the 170 baseline held
inaccurately — the real P2 baseline had 7 pre-existing failures
uncovered by W0.5; all now fixed). Full suite green.
- `pytest tests/` in the consumer repo passes (deploy invocation tests
updated for the inline adapter).
- The kyverno-json substrate works against real `kj` (W0.5 — DONE).
- The Gitea adapter: consumer `deploy.yml` has no cross-repo `uses:`;
inline checkout `acdl@v1.25` + `run_platform.sh` (W0).
- The DynamoDB primitive resolves + emits valid Terraform (W1 verify).
- The outcome backfill updates `fact_decision.outcome` (not `pending`)
(W2).
- The `escalation_reason` field is emitted on `block` band (W2).
- The adapter reads `env.state_backend.bucket` from the env JSON (W3).
- The 2 new kyverno-json policies pass on valid fixtures + fail on
invalid fixtures, against real `kj` (W4 — not skipped).
- CAP-025 is in the regression gate (W5).
- The deploy.yml drifts fixed: `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` wired, `ref:
v1.25`, no raw `NOVA_AWS_*` in shell env (W6).
- The rotation scheduled workflow exists (W7).
**Ship:** tag `v1.25.3`, merge `phase/03` → milestone, Gitea release.
Delete `phase/03`.

## Wave ordering (parallelization)
## Phase 4 — pilot-run-and-docs (tag v1.25.4)
With `parallelization.enabled: true`, `max_concurrent_agents: 5`,
`min_plans_for_parallel: 2`:
**Goal:** The pilot estate runs end-to-end against live AWS
`581513795199` (contract resolve → adapter compile → terraform plan →
policy scan → confidence signal → attestation → outbox record). Docs +
adapter README + onboarding guide are complete.
- **P1 Wave 1:** backend-engineer (protocol + registry + install) ‖
data-engineer (config.json policy object) ‖ policy-engineer (engine
adapter + smoke policy). 3 concurrent personas. Merge in order:
data-engineer → backend-engineer → policy-engineer.
- **P2 Wave 2:** policy-engineer (contract + stack-IR policies) ‖
backend-engineer (resolver wiring — depends on P1 registry). 2
concurrent. Merge: policy-engineer → backend-engineer (wiring
references the policy dirs).
- **P3 Wave 3:** policy-engineer (plan-JSON + meta policies) ‖
backend-engineer (run_platform.sh wiring — depends on P1 engine +
P2 resolver pattern). 2 concurrent. Merge: policy-engineer →
backend-engineer.
- **P4 Wave 4:** policy-engineer (regression policies) ‖ data-engineer
(capability-inventory fixtures) ‖ lead-developer (docs: READMEs,
STANDARDS, METRICS). 3 concurrent. Merge: data-engineer →
policy-engineer → lead-developer.
**Project:** `nova-blockchain-exchange` (consumer repo — the run) +
`acdl` (platform repo — docs).
**Branch:** `acdl/phase/04-pilot-run-and-docs` (platform branch for
docs); the run happens via the consumer's `deploy.yml` invocation.
**Personas:** blockchain-engineer (the run), lead-developer (docs),
backend-engineer (regression CAP-025 verification).
Territory enforcement: `warn` mode (per `config.json
personas.territory_enforcement: "warn"`). Cross-territory edits
(e.g., backend-engineer touching a policy file) emit a warning, not a
block.
### Wave 1 — the pilot run (REQ-316 verification, live)
- **Task 1.1** (blockchain-engineer): trigger the consumer's
`deploy.yml` with `mode: full, environment: dev` against
`581513795199`. The workflow checks out the consumer + platform
repos, runs `run_platform.sh`, applies the contract (ECS +
DynamoDB + S3), records the decision + attestation.
- **Task 1.2** (backend-engineer): verify CAP-025 (regression gate)
passes against the live run.
- **Task 1.3** (blockchain-engineer): capture the run's
`ai.decision.made` + `attestation.recorded` events from the Decision
Ledger → evidence for the milestone ship.
## Requirement → phase → persona matrix
### Wave 2 — docs (REQ-321)
- **Task 2.1** (lead-developer): `adapters/README.md` — new consumer
row + fix the stale `TYPE_MAP` references (IDEATE I8).
- **Task 2.2** (lead-developer): `docs/METRICS.md` — Post-Pilot metrics
grounded note (the 3 targets now have non-zero denominators post-run).
- **Task 2.3** (lead-developer): `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` §12.8
(Pilot Estate).
- **Task 2.4** (lead-developer):
`.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/README.md` — consumer onboarding
guide (how to invoke `deploy.yml@v1.25`, what secrets to set, what
the contract shape is).

**Must-haves (verify before ship):**
- The pilot run completes end-to-end (apply succeeds, decision recorded,
attestation recorded for dev — autonomous, no human approver).
- CAP-025 passes.
- The 3 Post-Pilot metrics have non-zero denominators (the run
contributed to `fact_run` + `fact_decision`).
- Docs are complete (adapter README, METRICS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md §12.8,
consumer onboarding guide).
**Ship:** tag `v1.25.4`, merge `phase/04` → milestone, Gitea release.
Delete `phase/04`.
---
## Phase 5 — final review + audit + milestone ship (tag v1.25.5)
**Goal:** Multi-persona code review across P1..P4. Audit (reconstruction
test, branch hygiene, commit discipline). Milestone ship: merge to main,
tag `v1.25.5` (= the v1.26 release), Gitea release with full milestone
summary, delete all milestone branches.
**Project:** both (`acdl` + `nova-blockchain-exchange`).
**Branch:** `phase/05-final-review-ship`.
**Personas:** lead-developer (review + audit + ship), backend-engineer
(review), data-engineer (review), policy-engineer (review),
blockchain-engineer (review — the chain core is reviewed).
### Wave 1 — review
- **Task 1.1** (lead-developer): `ciagent-review` — multi-persona code
review across P1..P4. Auto-fix P0; flag P1+ for post-hoc review.
- **Task 1.2** (all personas): fix P0 issues in this phase.
### Wave 2 — audit
- **Task 2.1** (lead-developer): `ciagent-audit` — reconstruction test
(git log ↔ `.ciagent/`), branch hygiene, commit discipline.
- **Task 2.2** (lead-developer): fix critical audit issues in this phase.
### Wave 3 — milestone ship
- **Task 3.1** (lead-developer): merge `phase/05` →
`milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation` → `main`.
- **Task 3.2** (lead-developer): tag `v1.25.5` (= the v1.26 release per
prev-minor tagging rule).
- **Task 3.3** (lead-developer): create Gitea release with full milestone
summary (all phases, all 13 requirements).
- **Task 3.4** (lead-developer): delete all milestone branches (local +
remote). Tags preserve all history.
- **Task 3.5** (lead-developer): update `.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/REQUIREMENTS.md`
(mark REQ-310..322 complete), `.ciagent/ROADMAP.md` (mark v1.26
complete), `.ciagent/NORTH_STAR.md` (note Strategic Objectives #1 +
#3 — first real consumer estate; Post-Pilot denominators activated).
- **Task 3.6** (lead-developer): write checkpoint `stage: complete,
phase: 5, phase_role: final` + clear checkpoint (milestone complete).
**Must-haves (verify before ship):**
- Review: 0 P0 issues unfixed; P1+ flagged for post-hoc.
- Audit: reconstruction test passes; branch hygiene clean; commit
discipline clean.
- Ship: `v1.25.5` tag exists; Gitea release created; milestone branches
deleted; main has the milestone merge.

## Requirement → Phase Mapping
| REQ | Phase | Wave | Persona |
|---|---|---|---|
| REQ-310 (blockchain core) | P1 | W1 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-311 (order engine) | P1 | W2 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-312 (settlement) | P1 | W2 | blockchain-engineer |

| REQ-321 (docs) | P4 | W2 | lead-developer |
| REQ-322 (DynamoDB primitive) | P3 | W1 | data-engineer |
---
## Wave Ordering Rationale
- **P1 W1 → W2:** the chain core (block + ledger + validator) must land
before the order engine + settlement (they submit transactions to the
ledger). W3 (CI) is cross-cutting + can land any time after W1.
- **P2 W1 → W2:** the contract must land before the deploy invocation
(the invocation references the contract). W3 (floating tag) is cross-
cutting.
- **P3 W1 (DynamoDB) first:** the contract (P2) references `dynamodb` —
the primitive must exist before P2's contract can resolve. **Risk:**
P2's contract references a module that doesn't exist until P3. Resolution: P2's contract is authored but the `test_contract_validates.py` test only checks schema validity (not registry resolution) — the registry resolution test is in P3 (after the primitive lands). The contract's `dynamodb` block is schema-valid (the schema is open); the registry resolution happens at apply time (P4).
- **Alternative:** move REQ-322 to P2 W0 (before the contract). This
avoids the P2→P3 dependency. **Decision: move REQ-322 to P2 W0.**
See revised mapping below.
### Revised: REQ-322 → P2 W0
REQ-322 (DynamoDB primitive) lands in P2 Wave 0 (before the contract)
so the contract's `dynamodb` block resolves at registry time, not just
schema time. This makes P2 self-contained: the primitive + the contract
+ the deploy invocation all land in P2.
| REQ | Phase | Wave | Persona |
|---|---|---|---|
| REQ-310 (blockchain core) | P1 | W1 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-311 (order engine) | P1 | W2 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-312 (settlement) | P1 | W2 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-322 (DynamoDB primitive) | P2 | W0 | data-engineer |
| REQ-313 (contract.yaml) | P2 | W1 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-314 (deploy invocation) | P2 | W2 | blockchain-engineer |
| REQ-315 (settlement-finality policy) | P3 | W4 | policy-engineer |
| REQ-316 (pilot regression CAP) | P3 | W5 + P4 W1 | backend-engineer |
| REQ-317 (outcome backfill) | P3 | W2 | backend-engineer |
| REQ-318 (escalation reason) | P3 | W2 | backend-engineer |
| REQ-319 (env-JSON wiring) | P3 | W3 | backend + data-engineer |
| REQ-320 (pilot-readiness policy) | P3 | W4 | policy-engineer |
| REQ-321 (docs) | P4 | W2 | lead-developer |
This revision is a binding plan decision (G-Q8 in the grill may
challenge it).

## Future Hardening Items (not in v1.26 scope, documented per grill G-Q9)
- **`NOVA_AWS_*` key-split:** v1.26 uses a single `NOVA_AWS_*` key with
root-equivalent permissions (D-207, confirmed empirically by the
bootstrap). A future hardening milestone should split this into a
`NOVA_BOOTSTRAP_AWS_*` root key (bootstrap only) + a least-privilege
`NOVA_AWS_*` runner key (the spike-runner pattern). The pilot scope
(single account, no production workloads, OIDC default) bounds the
risk.
- **Multi-account landing zone:** qa/prod/dr on separate accounts (D-208
keeps them placeholder in v1.26).
- **D-083 lift:** S3 Object Lock + JWS tamper-evident ledger (when the
pilot becomes a production system, D-204).
- **Multi-validator BFT consensus:** D-201.
- **Other security types:** bonds (T+2), derivatives, options (D-200).

# Nova — v1.25 Research Findings
# Nova — v1.26 Research Findings
> Phase: research (pre-execution). Milestone: v1.25 (kyverno-json Unified
> Policy Engine). Status: research. Researcher: ci-researcher.
> Phase: research (pre-execution). Milestone: v1.26 (Live Pilot Estate
> Activation). Status: research. Researcher: ci-researcher.
> Autonomy: full.
## 1. Problem domain
---
Nova's compliance/policy posture is fragmented across three engines with
three rule languages and three adapter shapes (see PROJECT.md v1.25
"Why" for the full diagnosis). The `PolicyCheckResult` schema
(`schemas/policy_check_result.schema.json`) is already the engine-agnostic
contract that `core/confidence_signal.py` consumes — the *contract* is
right; the *orchestration* is fragmented. There is no single declarative
place where "what Nova considers compliant" lives. The K8s-only Kyverno
adapter (`adapters/kyverno/`) can't help because it only speaks to K8s
manifests and the platform emits Terraform (D-053).
## 1. Domain — Homegrown PoA Blockchain for Securities Settlement
`kyverno-json` is the correction: a Kyverno-ecosystem runtime that applies
Kyverno policies to **any** JSON/YAML payload. It becomes the **unified
orchestrator** of compliance checks, behind a swappable `PolicyEngine`
protocol so OPA can replace it one day. Checkov and Wiz remain as
raw-finding adapters feeding *into* kyverno-json meta-policies.
### 1.1 Why a homegrown chain (not Ethereum/Solana/Hyperledger)
## 2. kyverno-json — the engine surface
The pilot's purpose is to exercise the Nova platform's deploy/policy/
attestation gates over a real consumer estate — not to build a
production blockchain. A homegrown PoA ledger is the minimal viable
chain: append-only blocks, single validator (pilot), SHA-256 hash chain,
deterministic block production. It records every order, match, and
settlement as transactions; settlement finality = block commit. This
is sufficient to demonstrate that Nova's policy engine (kyverno-json)
can assert settlement finality declaratively (REQ-315) and that the
Decision Ledger captures the apply decision.
### 2.1 What it is
A production chain (Ethereum/Solana/Hyperledger) would be the *consumer
app's* choice, not the platform's. The platform is chain-agnostic — it
deploys whatever the consumer's `contract.yaml` declares. For the pilot,
the homegrown chain is the simplest way to produce a real consumer
estate without a heavyweight external dependency.
[kyverno-json](https://github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json) is a standalone Go
binary from the Kyverno project. It is a **separate runtime** from the
Kyverno K8s admission controller — same policy lineage, different
application target. Where Kyverno (K8s) evaluates `ClusterPolicy`
resources against Kubernetes manifests at admission time, kyverno-json
evaluates `ValidatingPolicy` resources against **any** JSON or YAML
payload file via the CLI (`kj scan`) or a Go library. It is **not** a
Python package (no PyPI release); it is installed via
`go install github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json/cmd/kj@latest` (D-115) or by
downloading a pinned binary from GitHub releases.
### 1.2 PoA consensus — single validator (pilot)
### 2.2 CLI surface (the v1.25 invocation path)
Proof-of-Authority with a single validator is the minimal consensus
model: the validator proposes + commits blocks. No Byzantine fault
tolerance (single validator = no forks). Deterministic block
production: same ordered transactions → same block (same hash). This
makes the chain auditable (the hash chain is verifiable) and
reproducible (a replay produces the same chain). Multi-validator BFT
is a future milestone (D-201).
The v1.25 engine uses the `kj scan` subcommand:
### 1.3 T+1 settlement finality
```
kyverno-json scan [flags]
Equities settle T+1 (trade date + 1 business day). The pilot's
settlement service records matches as transactions on the chain; a
settlement is final when its block is committed. The settlement-finality
kyverno-json policy (REQ-315) asserts `all_committed: true` before any
promotion (qa→prod) — the declarative gate that turns settlement
finality into a policy artifact. This is the securities-specific
extension of v1.25's policy engine: the same `KyvernoJsonEngine`
evaluates a policy over a new payload shape (settlement-service status
JSON).
Flags:
--labels strings Labels selectors for policies
--output string Output format (text or json) (default "text")
--payload string Path to payload (json or yaml file)
--policy strings Path to kyverno-json policies
--pre-process strings JMESPath expression used to pre process payload
```
### 1.4 Equities-only scope (D-200)
The `KyvernoJsonEngine.evaluate()` implementation (REQ-293) invokes:
```
kj scan --policy <policy_dir> --payload <payload.json> --output json
```
and parses the JSON `results[]` array. The `--pre-process` flag is
available for JMESPath pre-projection (noted for the meta-policy use case
where the payload is the merged PCR list and a pre-process expression
can index by `ruleId` — recorded as a future optimization, not used in
v1.25's initial implementation).
Bonds (T+2), derivatives (varying), and options (exercise models) have
different settlement models. A pilot should demonstrate the Nova
platform's gates over the simplest case (equities T+1) before
expanding. "All types of securities" is the product vision; v1.26 is
the pilot (equities first). Future milestones add other security types
with their settlement models.
Other subcommands (`kj jp`, `kj serve`, `kj playground`, `kj docs`) are
out of scope for v1.25. `kj serve` is the long-running web-app mode
(noted as a future consideration for lower-latency evaluation in the
Out of Scope section of REQUIREMENTS.md). `kj jp` is the JMESPath REPL —
useful for policy authoring/debugging, not invoked by the engine.
---
### 2.3 Policy structure (the `ValidatingPolicy` resource)
## 2. Nova Consumer Deploy Model
kyverno-json policies are Kubernetes-style resources (cluster-scoped)
belonging to the `json.kyverno.io` API group, kind `ValidatingPolicy`,
version `v1alpha1`:
### 2.1 The reusable `deploy.yml@v1.25` workflow
```yaml
apiVersion: json.kyverno.io/v1alpha1
kind: ValidatingPolicy
metadata:

all: # all assertions must hold
- check: <assertion-tree>
message: "<per-check>"
# OR
any: # at least one assertion must hold
- check: <assertion-tree>
```
The platform's `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` is a `workflow_call` —
a reusable workflow that a consumer repo invokes via
`uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25`. Inputs: `contract`
(default `.nova/contract.yml`), `mode` (default `full`; enum
`full|plan-only|check-only|decommission`), `environment` (override).
The workflow checks out the consumer repo + the platform repo, runs
`scripts/run_platform.sh`, and records the apply decision +
attestation in the Decision Ledger. Secrets: `NOVA_AWS_*`
(account + access key + secret) + `NOVA_LAMBDA_URL` (error reporting).
Key differences from K8s Kyverno policies:
- **Always cluster-scoped** — no `namespace` field.
- **No `forEach`, pattern operators, anchors, or wildcards.** Iteration
is done via the `~` projection modifier in assertion trees (see §2.4).
- **Assertion trees** with JMESPath expressions replace Kyverno's
pattern-matching syntax (see §2.4).
The pilot consumer (`nova-blockchain-exchange`) invokes this workflow
with `mode: full` for `dev` (D-209). The `.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`
mirror is byte-identical (the platform's deploy workflow is
forge-agnostic — Gitea + GitHub).
### 2.4 Assertion trees (the rule language)
### 2.2 `run_platform.sh --apply` path (confirmed)
An `assert` declaration contains an `all` or `any` list. Each entry has a
`check` (the assertion tree — a nested JMESPath projection) and an
optional `message`. **All comparisons happen in the leaves of the tree.**
`scripts/run_platform.sh:431-455` — the `--apply` (or `mode: full`)
path runs `terraform apply -auto-approve` after the HITL gate
(`:438`). For `dev` (autonomous, no HITL gate), the apply proceeds
directly. The apply records the env via `core/env_transition.py record`
(`:450`). The full pipeline (no `--apply` flag) continues to Step 7
(confidence signal) + Step 8 (outbox write).
A simple example (assert a pod doesn't use the default service account):
```yaml
validate:
assert:
all:
- message: "serviceAccountName 'default' is not allowed"
check:
spec:
(serviceAccountName == 'default'): false
```
**Gap (noted in RESEARCH §4):** the `--apply` path exits before the
outbox write (Step 8). The pilot runs the full pipeline (not `--apply`
alone), so the outbox write happens. The `run.completed` event lands in
the JSONL Decision Ledger (not the DynamoDB outbox) — this is by design
(the outbox is the platform-run evidence stream; the Decision Ledger is
the cold store for metrics).
The `(expression)` syntax evaluates a JMESPath expression; the result
becomes the current object for descendants; the leaf value is compared
to the expected value.
### 2.3 Contract schema — multi-module manifest
**Iteration via the `~` modifier.** The `~` prefix on a key applies
descendant assertions to **each element** of an array/map individually
(rather than comparing the whole array). Given `foo.bar: [1,2,3]`:
```yaml
check:
foo:
~.bar: # iterate each element
(@ < `5`): true # assert each element < 5
```
The `~index_name.bar` form binds the index (array) or key (map) to
`$index_name` for use in descendants. This is how v1.25 iterates
`resources[]` in the Stack IR policies (REQ-297) and
`planned_values.root_module.resources[]` in the plan-JSON policies
(REQ-300).
`schemas/contract.schema.json:7,24-48` — required fields: `id`,
`name`, `environment`, `infrastructure`. The `infrastructure` block is
`minProperties: 1` with `patternProperties` accepting any module name
key. Multi-module manifest is supported: one contract can declare
`infrastructure: { microservice: {...}, dynamodb: {...}, s3: {...} }`.
The constraint is the `modules/registry.json` (the module must be
registered), not the schema.
**Explicit bindings** via `->binding_name` allow descendants to refer
to a parent node via `$binding_name`. Built-in bindings: `$payload`
(the whole input), `$policy`, `$rule`.
---
**Escaping** via `\key\` prevents projection when a payload key collides
with the projection syntax. Not needed for Nova payloads (no `(key)`
fields), noted for completeness.
## 3. Platform Module Readiness (the critical finding)
### 2.5 Output shape (what `kj scan --output json` produces)
### 3.1 The adapter is stateless (v1.11 rewrite)
The JSON output is a `results[]` array. Each result entry has (at
minimum):
- `policy`: the policy metadata.name
- `rule`: the rule name
- `result`: `"pass"` | `"fail"` | `"error"` | `"skip"` (lowercase)
- `message`: the assertion message (or engine error message)
- `resource`: the matched payload entry (the `identifier` value, or the
whole payload when no identifier/match)
- `namespace`/`kind`/`name`: K8s-style fields (present but empty for
non-K8s payloads — the K8s Kyverno adapter's evidence uses these; the
kyverno-json engine's evidence uses `assertion`/`jmespath` instead)
- `severity`: not present by default (kyverno-json does not assign
severities — the Nova policy author assigns severity via a Nova-
specific annotation; see §2.6)
`adapters/terraform/adapter.py:1-11` — the adapter is a "STATELESS
ASSEMBLER" that owns no module content. There is **no `TYPE_MAP`**,
`INPUT_MAP`, or `OUTPUT_MAP` (deleted in the v1.11 stateless rewrite;
`modules/STANDARDS.md:212-214` confirms). A new stack type requires a
new L1 module (`modules/l1/<name>/` with `interface.json` +
`terraform/main.tf` + `README.md` + `instance.json`) + a
`modules/registry.json` entry — not an adapter change.
The `KyvernoJsonEngine._to_pcr()` translator (REQ-293) maps:
- `policy` → `ruleId` (prefixed `KJ_<policy_name>` per D-116)
- `result` → `result` (`pass`/`fail`/`error` → pass/fail/error;
`skip`/`skipped` → skipped)
- `message` → `message`
- `resource` → `resourceRef` + `evidence.resource`
- severity from the policy's `metadata.annotations` (see §2.6)
- `engine: "kyverno"` (per D-116 — no new enum value)
### 3.2 ECS — ready
### 2.6 Severity assignment (Nova convention)
`modules/l1/ecs-service/terraform/main.tf:1,11` —
`aws_ecs_task_definition` + `aws_ecs_service`. `interface.json:5-6` —
`type: aws:ecs:task_definition`. `registry.json:29-37` — registered.
Tests: `test_adapter.py:164-185,257-360`, `test_contract_resolver.py:61-92`.
The `microservice` L2 (`modules/l2/microservice/composition.json`)
references 6 L1 children (ecs-cluster, ecr, iam-role, alb, ecs-service,
kms-key) — the ECS pattern is fully wired end-to-end.
kyverno-json does not natively assign severities to results. Nova's
confidence signal requires a `severity` per PCR (critical/high/medium/
low/info). The v1.25 convention: each Nova policy file declares its
severity via a `metadata.annotations` field:
### 3.3 S3 — ready
```yaml
metadata:
name: forbid-public-ingress
annotations:
nova.cloudinit.dev/severity: high
```
`modules/l1/s3/terraform/main.tf:1` — `aws_s3_bucket` (+ versioning +
SSE). `interface.json:5-6` — `type: aws:s3:bucket`. `registry.json:2-10`
— registered. Tests: `test_adapter.py:56-110,241-257`,
`test_contract_resolver.py:36-51,92-130`.
The `KyvernoJsonEngine._to_pcr()` reads this annotation from the loaded
policy YAML (not from the scan result — the result doesn't carry it) and
applies it to every result that policy produces. Default when absent:
`info`. This keeps severity in the policy (declarative, version-
controlled) rather than in the engine adapter (imperative). The
annotation key is `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` (matches the existing
`nova.cloudinit.dev` namespace used in `schemas/tagging-standard.json`).
### 3.4 DynamoDB — GAP (REQ-322)
## 3. The four policy targets (v1.25 scope)
**No `modules/l1/dynamodb/` directory, no `registry.json` key, no
`interface.json`, no `terraform/`, no tests.** The blockchain exchange's
ledger table needs this primitive. REQ-322 authors it: `interface.json`
(stack type `aws:dynamodb:table`), `terraform/main.tf`
(`aws_dynamodb_table` with PK + optional SK, `PAY_PER_REQUEST` default,
encryption + PITR enabled per v1.8 NFR defaults), `README.md`,
`instance.json`, + `registry.json` entry. The adapter needs no change
(stateless); the contract's `infrastructure.dynamodb` block references
this primitive. This is the single platform-side module build-out for
the milestone.
### 3.1 Consumer contract JSON (REQ-295)
### 3.5 Stale doc (not a blocker)
The payload is the parsed contract dict (the raw YAML loaded as JSON).
Policies assert the `contract.schema.json` constraints declaratively:
`require-id-pattern` (JMESPath regex `^[a-z][a-z0-9-]{2,5}$` over
`id`), `require-env-in-enum` (`environment` in `["dev","qa","prod","dr"]`),
`require-infrastructure-min-1` (`length(infrastructure) > 0`),
`forbid-unknown-fields` (keys subset of the 4 allowed). These are the
declarative equivalent of the jsonschema constraints — they let Nova
apply its own compliance posture (e.g. forbid a specific env for a
specific consumer) on top of schema validity without editing the
jsonschema.
`adapters/README.md:49-54` references the deleted `TYPE_MAP`/
`INPUT_MAP`/`OUTPUT_MAP` — contradicts `adapter.py:1-11` +
`modules/STANDARDS.md:212-214`. REQ-321 (docs) should fix this.
**Invocation point:** `core/contract_resolver.py` pre-resolve (REQ-296).
Early-fail: if a contract policy fails, the resolver still proceeds
(the confidence signal decides the gate, consistent with the existing
`--soft-fail` Checkov pattern) — but the failing PCRs are in the
`policy` input, which lowers the score.
---
### 3.2 Resolved Target Stack IR JSON (REQ-297)
## 4. Metric Pipeline Grounding (Post-Pilot targets)
The payload is the resolved Stack IR dict produced by
`core/contract_resolver.py` (the merged module outputs). Policies
assert over `resources[]` (the array of resolved resources):
`require-tagging-standard` (every resource's `tags` has `nova:owner` +
`nova:environment` — ports
`adapters/terraform/policy/custom_rules/nova_tagging.py`),
`forbid-public-ingress` (no resource has `public_ingress: true` — the
v1.0 demo rule, now declarative), `require-encryption-by-default` (every
S3/EBS/KMS-aliased resource carries encryption config — ports the v1.8
D-encryption-default rule). The `~` modifier iterates `resources[]`.
### 4.1 AI Decision Accuracy — outcome backfill (REQ-317)
**Invocation point:** `core/contract_resolver.py` post-resolve (REQ-298).
Additive — the resolver's return values and exceptions are unchanged;
the PCRs are appended to the contract-policy PCRs.
`core/metrics/decision_ledger.py:210-211` documents the event chain:
`confidence.computed → ai.decision.made → attestation.recorded →
run.completed/failed`. `collector.py:262` inserts `fact_decision.outcome`
as `"pending"` — **there is no outcome-backfill step** wiring
`run.completed`/`run.failed` back into `fact_decision.outcome`. The AI
Decision Accuracy metric (`trust_snapshot.py:70-85`, `_get_ai_decision_accuracy`)
reads `decisions WHERE outcome='succeeded' ÷ total` — so it reads 0%
today (all pending). REQ-317 adds `core/metrics/outcome_backfill.py`
that reads run-manifest events and updates `fact_decision.outcome` +
`fact_decision.backfilled_at`. The PCR schema is unchanged (D-211).
### 3.3 Terraform plan JSON (REQ-300)
### 4.2 Human Escalation Frequency — `reason='confidence'` tag (REQ-318)
The payload is `terraform show -json <tfplan>` output. Policies assert
over `planned_values.root_module.resources[]`:
`forbid-plaintext-secrets` (no `aws_db_instance.password` /
`aws_iam_user.login_profile.password` in plaintext — ports
`CKV_AWS_41/45/46`), `forbid-iam-wildcard` (no `Action: "*"` or
`Resource: "*"` in `aws_iam_policy.PolicyDocument` — ports
`CKV_AWS_1/40`), `require-kms-reference` (KMS keys referenced by alias,
not inline key material — ports `CKV_AWS_7/33`). These are declarative
**mirrors** of `checkov_adapter.py:RULE_MAP` — the Checkov rule stays
the source of truth for `terraform_plan` scanning; the kyverno-json
policy covers the same plan JSON with a different rule language
(defense-in-depth against engine drift).
`core/confidence_signal.py:184` — a `block` band sets
`human_override=True` in the `ai.decision.made` event.
`run_platform.sh:636` fails the pipeline on `block`. The Human
Escalation Frequency metric (`docs/metrics/human_escalation_frequency.md:11-12`)
is defined as `count(runs WHERE hitl_block=1 AND reason='confidence') ÷
total runs`. The `reason='confidence'` discriminator is **not currently
stored** — `hitl_block` is a boolean from the manifest. REQ-318 adds
`escalation_reason: 'confidence'` to the `ai.decision.made` event when
`band == 'block'` + persists it into `fact_run` via the collector.
**Invocation point:** `run_platform.sh` Step 5 (REQ-301). After
Checkov/Wiz produce raw PCRs, the script runs `kj scan` over the plan
JSON; both PCR lists concatenate into the confidence signal's `policy`
input. When `which kj` is false, the script logs and proceeds with the
Checkov/Wiz list only.
### 4.3 Touchless Resolution Rate — denominator activates post-pilot
### 3.4 PolicyCheckResult records (meta-policies, REQ-303)
`docs/metrics/touchless_resolution_rate.md:12-15` — defined as a SQL
query over `fact_run` (`runs WHERE hitl_block=0 ÷ total runs`). The data
lands in `fact_run.hitl_block` via `collector.py:216-227`. No dedicated
emitter computes the ratio — it's a downstream query. The denominator
is 0 today (no consumer runs). The pilot run activates the denominator.
The payload is the **merged** `list[PolicyCheckResult]` produced by
checkov + wiz + the plan-JSON policies. This is the most novel target —
kyverno-json policies over the policy results themselves.
`block-on-any-critical` asserts no PCR has `severity: "critical"` +
`result: "fail"`; if any does, the meta-policy emits a `fail` PCR with
`ruleId: "KJ_META_BLOCK_CRITICAL"` and severity `critical`. This is the
declarative source of truth for "critical = block" (D-119 — the
`confidence_signal.py` `PENALTY["critical"]: None` hard-override stays
as defense-in-depth). `tagging-rules-agree` cross-checks the Checkov
`NOVA_TAG_NAMING` result against the kyverno-json
`KJ_REQUIRE_TAGGING_STANDARD` result by `resourceRef`; divergence emits
an `error` PCR (D-118).
---
**Invocation point:** after the three target policies (contract/stack-
IR/plan-JSON) produce their PCR lists, the merged list is the payload
for the meta-policies. The meta-policy PCRs are appended to the merged
list, which is what the confidence signal consumes.
## 5. kyverno-json Policy Extensibility
## 4. The `PolicyEngine` swap boundary
`adapters/kyverno-json/kyverno_json_engine.py:74-80` — the engine is
**policy-dir agnostic**: it loads whatever subdir the caller passes.
Existing subdirs: `contract/`, `stack-ir/`, `plan-json/`, `meta/`,
`regression/`. Adding a new subdir (e.g. `pilot-readiness/`,
`settlement-finality/`) requires: (1) `mkdir
adapters/kyverno-json/policies/<name>/`, (2) drop `ValidatingPolicy`
YAML/JSON files, (3) wire a caller. No engine code change needed.
Test pattern: one test file per subdir (`tests/test_<name>_policies.py`).
### 4.1 Protocol shape (REQ-291)
The pilot adds two new policy subdirs: `pilot-readiness/`
(REQ-320, no-placeholder-account) + `settlement-finality/` (REQ-315,
all-matches-committed). Both follow the established pattern.
A Python `Protocol` (PEP 544 — structural subtyping, no inheritance):
```python
class PolicyEngine(Protocol):
@property
def name(self) -> str: ...
def is_configured(self) -> bool: ...
def evaluate(self, payload: dict | str, policy_dir: Path,
contract_id: str) -> list[dict]: ...
```
`list[dict]` (not `list[PolicyCheckResult]` — there's no dataclass; the
schema is enforced via `jsonschema` validation in tests, matching the
existing adapter pattern). The registry selects the active engine from
`config.json.policy.engine`. A `NullEngine` is the fallback when the
`policy` key is absent (emits `SKIPPED` — backward compatibility for
tests that don't set the key).
---
### 4.2 The OPA-equivalent surface (future swap)
## 6. Env-JSON Wiring Reconciliation (REQ-319)
OPA (Open Policy Agent) is the most likely future replacement. The
mapping:
| Nova `PolicyEngine` member | kyverno-json impl | OPA equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| `name` | `"kyverno-json"` | `"opa"` |
| `is_configured()` | `which kj` | `which opa` |
| `evaluate(payload, policy_dir, contract_id)` | `kj scan --policy <dir> --payload <json> -o json` | `opa eval -d <dir> -i <json> 'data.nova.<...>'` |
| Policy file format | `ValidatingPolicy` (YAML) | Rego (`.rego`) |
| Result shape | `results[]` (pass/fail/error/skip) | `result` (set of violations) |
| Severity | Nova annotation `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` | Nova convention (Rego `metadata` or a wrapper) |
`core/environments/dev.json:4` — `account_id: "000000000000"` (placeholder).
`core/environment_check.py:48-53` warns (non-fatal) when account_id is
placeholder + env != dev. `adapters/terraform/adapter.py:116-117` —
computes the state bucket as `nova-tfstate-<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>-us-east-1`
from the `AWS_ACCOUNT_ID` env var, **not** from the env JSON's
`state_backend.bucket`. This is the wiring gap: the env JSON's
`state_backend` field is currently unused by the live apply path.
REQ-319 makes the adapter read `env.state_backend.bucket` when present
(falling back to the computed name for backwards compat) + updates
`dev.json` to the real account `581513795199` + real bucket
`nova-tfstate-581513795199-us-east-1`.
The protocol is minimal (3 members) specifically so the OPA
implementation is a known quantity: an `OpaEngine` class that shells to
`opa eval`, translates the Rego violation set to PCR dicts, and
implements `is_configured()` via `which opa`. The policy *files* would
need rewriting (Rego, not ValidatingPolicy) — but the protocol, the
registry, the confidence signal, and the PCR schema are all untouched.
This is the swap boundary the user asked for ("Implemented as an
adapter since we might one day decide to replace it with something else
like OPA").
---
### 4.3 Why not a full plugin registry?
A `setuptools` entry-point plugin registry (like checkov's
`--external-checks-dir`) was considered and rejected: Nova has 1 active
engine today (kyverno-json) and at most 2 in the foreseeable future
(kyverno-json + OPA). A `Protocol` + `dict` registry in
`core/policy_engine.py` is the right weight — discoverable, typed,
testable, and ~40 lines. An entry-point registry adds packaging
complexity (entry-point metadata, version resolution) for no gain at
this scale. The `register(name, factory)` method on the registry is
the extension point if a future milestone needs runtime plugin
discovery.
## 5. Latency / MTTR impact (G-Q3 anticipation)
NORTH_STAR.md MTTR target: < 60s p95. `run_platform.sh` Step 5 today
runs Checkov over the terraform plan (typically 5-15s for a small
stack). Adding `kj scan` over the same plan JSON adds:
- Process spawn: ~50ms (Go binary startup)
- Policy load: ~20ms (a handful of YAML files)
- Assertion evaluation: ~100-500ms (JMESPath over a small plan)
- Total: < 1s for a typical Nova stack
The kyverno-json pass runs **in parallel** with Checkov (REQ-301 — the
script launches both and waits on both), so the wall-clock impact is
`max(checkov_time, kj_time)` ≈ checkov_time (kj is faster). The
contract + stack-IR policies run during resolve (already a fast step).
Meta-policies run over the merged list (in-memory, < 10ms). **No
measurable MTTR impact** is expected. This will be verified in P3
VERIFY with a timing assertion.
## 6. "Platform functions without AI" tenet (G-Q1 / D-120)
kyverno-json is deterministic (same policy + payload → same result,
every run). It is not an LLM, not a probabilistic model, not a
"judgement" engine. The NORTH_STAR.md tenet ("the platform functions
without AI — 'AI decisions' are really automated decisions")
distinguishes AI (non-reproducible) from automation (reproducible).
kyverno-json is the latter. Adding it is **more** aligned with the
tenet than the current imperative Python in `core/env_transition.py`
and `core/regression_verify.py`, because the policy is declarative
(visible, auditable, version-controlled) rather than imperative (logic
hidden in function bodies). The `is_configured()` guard ensures the
platform functions without the binary (graceful skip → `SKIPPED` PCR
→ confidence signal proceeds).
## 7. ECS policy catalog overlap (prior art)
The kyverno-json catalog ships ECS policies that overlap with Nova's
L1 modules: `ecs-cluster-enable-logging`, `ecs-cluster-required-
container-insights`, `ecs-service-public-ip`, `ecs-service-required-
latest-platform-fargate`, `ecs-task-definition-fs-read-only`. These are
**reference policies**, not drop-in Nova policies — they target the
AWS ECS API shape (`type: aws_ecs_service` etc.), not Nova's Stack IR
shape. v1.25 policies target the Nova IR (REQ-297) and the terraform
plan JSON (REQ-300), not the raw AWS API. The catalog is useful as
prior art for JMESPath patterns over ECS resources — the
`ecs-service-public-ip` policy's `contains('$allowed-values',
@.assign_public_ip)` pattern informs the Nova `forbid-public-ingress`
policy shape. No catalog policies are imported directly in v1.25.
## 8. Risks & mitigations
## 7. Risk Analysis
| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|---|
| `kj` binary not in CI image | medium | blocks P3+ tests | `is_configured()` guard + `pytest.skip` + `scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh` |
| kyverno-json output shape changes across versions | low | breaks `_to_pcr()` | pin `@latest` to a known-good commit in `install-kyverno-json.sh` after P1 smoke; defensive parsing (malformed → `error` PCR, not exception) |
| Policy explosion (4 targets × N rules) | medium | maintenance load | wave ordering (PLAN); policies co-located per target dir; meta-policy cross-check keeps the set auditable |
| Checkov + kj tagging-rule drift | medium | false `error` PCRs | `tagging-rules-agree` meta-policy emits `error` on divergence (visible, not silent); the Checkov rule stays source of truth for HCL, kj for IR |
| OPA swap turns out harder than the protocol implies | low | future milestone rework | RESEARCH §4.2 documents the OPA-equivalent surface; the protocol is the contract, not the implementation |
| `--pre-process` needed for meta-policies but undocumented behavior | low | meta-policy bugs | v1.25 meta-policies use plain assertion trees over the PCR list (no pre-process); `--pre-process` noted as a future optimization only |
| `NOVA_AWS_*` key lacks a needed IAM permission mid-pilot | Low (bootstrap succeeded → root-equivalent) | High (blocks apply) | D-207; the key has root-equivalent perms (empirically confirmed). |
| DynamoDB primitive takes longer than expected (new module) | Medium | Medium | REQ-322 is the single platform-side build-out; the `s3`/`rds` primitives are the template — straightforward. |
| Homegrown chain has a correctness bug (hash chain breaks) | Low | High | REQ-310 tests cover chain integrity, hash determinism, genesis, append/verify. |
| `deploy.yml@v1.25` ref doesn't resolve (floating tag) | Low | High | The platform's `release.yml` creates + force-moves the `v1.25` + `v1` floating tags on merge to main. The pilot contract uses `@v1.25`. |
| Settlement-finality policy false-negatives (blocks a valid promotion) | Medium | Medium | REQ-315 tests cover passing + failing fixtures; the policy is skip-when-kj-absent (graceful). |
| D-083 deferral challenged (audit ledger not tamper-evident) | Low | Low | D-204; the SQLite hash-chain + DynamoDB outbox is the pilot's audit record. Tamper-evidence is a future milestone. |
## 9. Assumptions (logged, full autonomy)
---
- A1: `kj scan --output json` produces a stable `results[]` array shape.
Will be verified in P1 smoke test (`_smoke.json` policy + a trivial
payload); if the shape differs, `_to_pcr()` is adjusted defensively
(malformed → `error` PCR). Confidence: 0.85.
- A2: The `nova.cloudinit.dev/severity` annotation convention is
read by the engine from the policy YAML (loaded once per evaluate()
call). kyverno-json does not validate unknown annotations — they pass
through. Confidence: 0.90.
- A3: The `~` projection modifier iterates `resources[]` in the Stack
IR and `planned_values.root_module.resources[]` in the plan JSON
correctly. Verified in P2/P3 tests. Confidence: 0.85.
- A4: `go install` works in the CI image (Go toolchain available or
installable). If not, the binary-release download path is the
documented fallback in `install-kyverno-json.sh`. Confidence: 0.80.
- A5: The `NullEngine` fallback (when `policy` key absent in
config.json) keeps all existing tests passing — they don't set the
key, so they get `NullEngine` → `SKIPPED` PCRs → confidence signal
proceeds with `policy` input `[SKIPPED]` → per-input score 1.0
(skipped counts as pass in `_per_input_score`). Confidence: 0.95
(verified against `confidence_signal.py:84-89`).

> orchestrator's next step, deliberately out of scope here.
> **Branch:** `phase/05-final-review-ship`
> **Milestone:** `milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation`
> **Tags so far:** v1.25.0 (P0) → v1.25.1 (P1) → v1.25.2 (P2) →
> v1.25.3 (P3) → v1.25.4 (P4). P5 ships v1.25.5 (= the v1.26 release).

## 1. Review (ciagent-review equivalent)
Multi-persona review across P1..P4 (lead-developer coordination;
correctness / testing / security / maintainability axes). The spot-checks
below confirm the P3/P4 commits deliver what their messages claim.
### Correctness spot-checks (all PASS)
- **kyverno-json substrate fix (59d837f):** the engine `_translate` parses
the real `kj` v0.0.3 bare-list output (not the v1.25-assumed
`{"results":[...]}` dict); `_materialize_yaml_policy_dir` mirrors `.json`
policies to `.yaml` twins (kj v0.0.3 ignores `.json`); the `validate`
wrapper was removed from all 16 policies + the check syntax fixed
(`expression: expected_value`). All 36 kj-dependent tests pass against
real `kj` (0 skips). The install script fixed
(`go install .../kyverno-json@latest` + symlink, not the broken
`cmd/kj@latest`).
- **outcome backfill (51b886f, REQ-317):** `core/metrics/outcome_backfill.py`
updates `fact_decision.outcome` pending → succeeded/failed; idempotent +
terminal (no overwrite of a non-pending outcome); wired into the
collector. The P4 run evidence (6ced8ed) confirms
`nova.outcome.backfilled (pending->succeeded)`.
- **Gitea adapter (P3 W0):** the consumer `deploy.yml` has no cross-repo
`uses:` — inline `actions/checkout@v4` of `acdl/acdl @ ref: v1.25` into
`platform/` then `bash platform/scripts/run_platform.sh`. SPEC §10 Q1
resolved by evidence.
- **env-JSON state_backend (3300ed2, REQ-319):** the adapter reads
`env.state_backend.bucket` when present (fallback to the computed
`nova-tfstate-{account_id}-{region}` for backwards compat). `dev.json`
bound to `581513795199` + `nova-tfstate-581513795199-us-east-1`;
qa/prod/dr stay placeholder (account `000000000000` — the pilot-readiness
policy blocks apply, D-208).
- **pilot policies (e22661a, REQ-315/320):** `no-placeholder-account.json`
passes on dev (581513795199), fails on placeholder;
`all-matches-committed.json` asserts `all_committed == true`. Both run
against real `kj` (not skipped).
### Testing
- 844 tests collected; **844 pass** (839 fast + 5 slow individually
re-run: 2 `test_run_local_e2e_*` + 3 `test_verify_regression_mode::*`).
0 failures, 0 skips that shouldn't skip.
- New feature coverage confirmed: REQ-317 backfill test
(`test_outcome_backfill.py`), REQ-318 escalation_reason test
(`test_confidence_escalation_reason.py`), REQ-315/320 policy tests
(`test_settlement_finality_policy.py`, `test_pilot_readiness_policy.py`
— both real-kj), REQ-316 CAP-025 test (`test_regression_pilot.py`), Gitea
adapter tests (`test_deploy_workflow_invocation.py` +
`test_deploy_gitea_invocation.py` — assert no cross-repo `uses:`,
`ref: v1.25`, `secrets: inherit`), rotation workflow test
(`test_rotate_key_workflow.py`), CAP-025 test
(`test_deploy_workflow_env_input.py`).
- The v1.25 `pytest.skip("kj not installed")` skips are gone — `_require_kj`
no longer skips (kj v0.0.3 installed). All kj-dependent tests exercise
the real engine.
### Security
- **No `NOVA_AWS_*` secrets in committed files.** `.env.secrets` is
gitignored and NOT tracked (`git ls-files` confirms). All `NOVA_AWS_*`
references in committed workflow files are `${{ secrets.* }}` placeholder
references — the correct pattern. The W6 fix (b237b3e) removed raw
`NOVA_AWS_*` from the shell env in `run_platform.sh`'s local fallback.
- **No forge mentions in synced files.** `test_no_forge_mentions` PASS
(the REQ-230 guard). The W6/W7 fix (03edd82) renamed `NOVA_GITEA_TOKEN`
→ `NOVA_FORGE_TOKEN` (forge-agnostic) after the guard tripped.
### Maintainability
- **No stale `TYPE_MAP` refs in active docs.** The P4 W2 fix (a0799f1)
fixed the stale `TYPE_MAP`/`INPUT_MAP` references in `adapters/README.md`
(IDEATE I8). Remaining `TYPE_MAP` mentions are in `.ciagent/archive/`
(historical, correct) + `.ciagent/{CLARIFY,IDEATE,RESEARCH}.md`
(decision records, correct context).
- **No new TODOs/FIXMEs in P3/P4.** `grep` over `core/` for
`TODO|FIXME|XXX|HACK` returns 0 matches.
- The P3 W0.5 fix (3735330) resolved pre-existing P2 drift (dynamodb
`simple.yaml` → `simple.yml`, sync_workflows re-sync, CAP-024 deck path
→ `nova-autonomous-cloud-delivery-marp.md`).
### Review verdict
**0 P0 issues remain** after the one P0 fix applied this phase (see §3).
**P1+ issues for post-hoc review (none blocking ship):**
| # | Severity | Issue | Disposition |
|---|----------|-------|-------------|
| R-1 | P2 (cosmetic) | `CHECKPOINT.json` `phase_branch` field is stale (`phase/03-pilot-metrics-and-policies`) — should be `phase/04-pilot-run-and-docs` or cleared. | Post-hoc. The orchestrator's ship step overwrites CHECKPOINT entirely (`stage: complete, phase: 5, phase_role: final`), so this field is transient. Not fixed here to avoid touching CHECKPOINT outside the ship step. |
| R-2 | P3 (historical) | The v1.26 consumer-repo merge commit (78da051) + the P0 merge (d391cdf) use `---/ci---` close markers; the v1.26 platform-repo commits (P3/P4) use `---ci---` only. Minor format inconsistency from the multi-project boundary. | Post-hoc. Cosmetic; both markers are recognized by the audit tooling. |
| R-3 | P3 (future-hardening) | Single `NOVA_AWS_*` root-equivalent key (D-207). Documented in PLAN.md §Future Hardening — a future milestone should split into `NOVA_BOOTSTRAP_AWS_*` + least-privilege `NOVA_AWS_*` runner key. | Post-hoc. Out of v1.26 scope by design (D-207, G-Q9). |
---
## 2. Audit (ciagent-audit equivalent)
### 2.1 Reconstruction test — **PASS**
The git log `---ci---` blocks are consistent with the `.ciagent/` file
states. The last 20 commits on `milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation` show the
expected phase progression:
- P0 (`d391cdf`, status: complete) → P1 ship (`2ee541f`) →
P2 reconcile (`d022ddc`) → P2 complete (`6a3d47e`) →
P3 W0.5 → W2 → W3 → W4 → W5 → W6 → W6/W7 → verify (`5d1a985`) →
docs (`732998b`) → merge+complete (`268f695`, `6b60c0c`) →
P4 W1 (`cec34ab`, `6ced8ed`) → W2 (`a0799f1`) → verify (`074ee05`) →
merge+complete (`6eb7af2`, `f266dcf`).
Each phase follows the `execute → verify → complete` lifecycle. The
CHECKPOINT `current_phase` (phase 4, status complete, tag v1.25.4) matches
the latest commit (`f266dcf docs(ship): P4 complete → v1.25.4`). The
`previous_phase` (phase 3, tag v1.25.3, complete) is consistent.
All 4 merge commits on the milestone branch (d391cdf, 78da051, 268f695,
6eb7af2) carry `---ci---` blocks with project/phase/milestone/status.
### 2.2 `.ciagent/` file discipline — **CLEAN** (after the one P0 fix)
- **CHECKPOINT.json:** `current_phase` (4/complete/v1.25.4) + `previous_phase`
(3/complete/v1.25.3) consistent with the git log. `waves` map + `pre_run`
map + `notes` accurately describe the P4 live apply + outcome backfill.
One stale field: `phase_branch` (R-1, post-hoc).
- **REQUIREMENTS.md:** v1.26 traceability table now shows all 13 REQs
(310..322) complete. **One P0 fix applied:** REQ-316 row corrected from
"P4 live-verify pending" → "v1.25.4 — live-verify complete" (P4 is
complete; v1.25.4 tagged; the live apply against 581513795199 succeeded
per commit 6ced8ed + verify 074ee05). The v1.25 table (REQ-291..309) is
all-complete + consistent with ROADMAP.
- **ROADMAP.md:** v1.26 phases P0..P4 marked complete; P5 marked "planned"
(correct — this phase is in progress, ship is next). v1.25 marked
complete. The phase descriptions match the commits.
- **PLAN.md:** the active phase plan covers P0..P5 with wave ordering,
persona assignment, + the REQ-322→P2 W0 revision. Consistent with what
shipped.
- **ARCHITECTURE.md:** §12.8 (Pilot Estate) + §12.9 (rotation) present
(P4 W2 docs).
- **PROJECT.md:** v1.26 active milestone noted; multi-project mode
(`nova-blockchain-exchange`) reflected.
### 2.3 Branch hygiene — **CLEAN**
`git branch -a` (local):
- `main`
- `milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation`
- `phase/05-final-review-ship` (current)
P1..P4 phase branches are deleted (only milestone + P5 remain, as
required). Remote: `origin/main` + `origin/milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation`
mirror the local state.
Tags: `v1.25` (floating) + `v1.25.0` + `v1.25.1` + `v1.25.2` + `v1.25.3` +
`v1.25.4` all exist. `v1.25.5` is not yet present (correct — it's the
orchestrator's ship step).
### 2.4 Commit discipline — **CLEAN**
Every v1.26-scope commit on the milestone branch carries a `---ci---`
block with `project` + `phase` + `milestone` + `status` (and most carry
`wave`). The 4 merge commits (d391cdf, 78da051, 268f695, 6eb7af2) all
carry `---ci---` blocks. (Historical commits from v1.0-v1.18 predate the
block convention — out of scope for this audit.)
The consumer-repo merge (78da051) correctly carries
`project: nova-blockchain-exchange` (multi-project boundary respected);
the platform commits carry `project: acdl`.
### Audit verdict
| Check | Result | Detail |
|-------|--------|--------|
| Reconstruction test | **PASS** | git-log `---ci---` blocks ↔ `.ciagent/` consistent; phase 4/complete/v1.25.4 matches HEAD. |
| File discipline | **CLEAN** | All 6 `.ciagent/` files consistent after the REQ-316 P0 fix. One stale `phase_branch` field (R-1, post-hoc). |
| Branch hygiene | **CLEAN** | Only main + milestone + P5; P1-P4 deleted; v1.25.0..v1.25.4 tagged. |
| Commit discipline | **CLEAN** | All v1.26 commits carry `---ci---` blocks; merge commits included. |
---
## 3. P0 fixes applied this phase
| # | File | Fix |
|---|------|-----|
| P0-1 | `.ciagent/REQUIREMENTS.md` | REQ-316 traceability row: "P4 live-verify pending" → "v1.25.4 — live-verify complete". P4 is complete (v1.25.4 tagged, live apply against 581513795199 succeeded per commits 6ced8ed + 074ee05); the "pending" text was stale documentation drift that misstated the milestone state. |
No code-level P0 issues found — the P3/P4 feat/fix commits deliver what
they claim; the test suite is green; no secrets leaked; no forge mentions;
no stale active-doc references.
---
## 4. Overall verdict — **PROCEED to milestone ship**
- **Review:** 0 P0 issues remain (1 P0 fix applied: REQ-316 doc drift).
3 P1+ items flagged for post-hoc (R-1 stale CHECKPOINT field, R-2 close-
marker inconsistency, R-3 future key-split — none block ship).
- **Audit:** reconstruction PASS; file discipline CLEAN; branch hygiene
CLEAN; commit discipline CLEAN.
- **Tests:** 844 passed, 0 failed, 0 unexpected skips (5 slow tests
individually confirmed green: 2 local-e2e + 3 regression-mode).
**Decision: PROCEED.** The orchestrator's next step (Wave 3 milestone
ship: merge `phase/05-final-review-ship` → `milestone/v1.26-pilot-
activation` → `main`; tag `v1.25.5`; Gitea release; delete milestone
branches; final CHECKPOINT clear) is unblocked. Per the full-autonomy
"never halt" directive, even if a P0 had been critical, the ship step
would still proceed with the issue documented — but here the single P0
was a cosmetic doc-drift, now fixed.

# Nova — Architecture (v1.1 target)
> Target architecture for the real Agentic Cloud Delivery Platform (rebranded
> Nova in v1.15). Source of truth for **how**: `docs/architecture.md` (v0.2) is the upstream
> draft; this file is the Nova-repo operating copy, refined at phase
> boundaries. Where this file and `docs/vision.md` conflict, the vision wins.
## Status
Architecture is at **v0.2** upstream (`docs/architecture.md`). Milestone v1.1
**finalizes it to v1.0** in Phase 07 by resolving the 11 open decisions
(see `PROJECT.md` open-decision resolutions table). This file records the
locked commitments and the v1.1 spike scope.
## Overview
The platform is **four layers + six cross-cutting concerns**. The sixth
concern — the engine abstraction (§12) — is first-class, not an
implementation detail. The vision's "Two Consumer Surfaces, One Platform"
tenet binds everything: L3A and L3B converge on the same contract schema,
the same policy envelope, and the same evidence stream.

## Layers
### Layer 1 — Foundational Primitives
Single-purpose, **engine-agnostic** primitive modules. L1 modules do
not compose with other L1s; L1 takes its environment as input. The L1
interface is defined against the **Target Stack IR**, not against Terraform
directly (the IR is shaped to round-trip to Terraform in v1, per §12.1).
- No inter-L1 references. L1 may call Terraform data sources.
- Semver: interface → MAJOR, behavior → MINOR, lifecycle → PATCH (W3.D).
- Immutability on publication. 12-month deprecation window.
- AI refinement is a flag; the trigger is the W1.A joint condition.
### Layer 2 — Composed Stacks
Combine L1 primitives into deployable shapes. Each codebase maps to one
canonical L2 stack (`multiStack: true` only per W1.B). Shape X
(parameterized module) or Shape Y (thin-composition layer). Hierarchical
composition, max depth 5, only registered L1s. The thin-composition tree's
`wires` field is defined against the IR's relationship type, not a Terraform
module block.
Pipeline quality checks: secrets-in-plaintext, public ingress, IAM
wildcard, KMS key reference, tag compliance, naming convention. Restricted
from thin-composition: IAM principal creation, network boundary creation,
key/secret creation, external data transfer. Auto-promote after 3 observed
usages.
### Layer 3A — Developer Consumer Surface
Tag-based reference to the central pipeline template. Developer-owned
workflow file, no platform auto-sync. L3A and L3B are parallel paths, not a
progression. **W2.A (Path B):** tag for dev/qa, SHA for prod; platform CLI
resolves tag→SHA for prod-bound workflows.
### Layer 3B — Agentic Consumer Surface
Hybrid runtime, skill as markdown, agent as executor. Trust model: trust
and always verify on the platform side. Skill envelope (4 dimensions).
Stateless agents, all state in the platform. `profile: agentic` marker
unlocks `naturalLanguageIntent`, `confidenceAtSubmission`, `agentTrace`.
Initial skill catalog (BA.A): web API, worker, scheduled job, static asset,
basic observability bootstrap.
Environment progression:
| Environment | Autonomy | Attester | Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| dev | Full autonomy (no HITL) | — | Confidence ≥ 0.50, all six inputs present |
| qa | Held for attestation | QA | GitHub Deployment approval + full QA matrix (§10) |
| prod | Held for attestation | SRE | GitHub Deployment approval + full SRE matrix (§10) |
| dr | Held for attestation | SRE | GitHub Deployment approval + dr-drill evidence |
**Staging is removed.** Dev is the only autonomous environment.
## Cross-cutting concerns
### Central pipeline template (§6)
JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) with a thin domain wrapper. Central repo +
generated client libraries. Multi-stage validation: schema → policy → NFR →
confidence. Distributed enrichment. GitOps reconciler (K8s API; cdlc-gitops
state → CRDs) + Terraform execution layer (§12.5). The pipeline emits one
`PolicyCheckResult` per policy rule; the confidence signal consumes them as
one normalized input.
### Contract schema (§7)
Central repo + generated client libraries. Strict fail-fast at schema
stage, multi-stage validation with reason codes from a published
vocabulary. **W3.E:** per-env mandatory inputs —
- dev: `stack`, `environment`
- qa adds: `validation.e2eSuite`, `validation.loadTest`
- prod adds: `runbook`, `dashboard`, `oncall`
- dr adds: `drDrillRef`
- `inputs` always optional; `profile: agentic` fields optional everywhere.
### Confidence signal (§8)
Six canonical inputs, weighted sum with per-input breakdown. Per-env
thresholds: dev ≥ 0.50, qa ≥ 0.75, prod ≥ 0.90, dr ≥ 0.95. Structured output
`{ score, band, perInput, reasonCodes }`. 1-year storage, no retraining in
v1. Halt with explicit reason on missing input.
Policy input = list of `PolicyCheckResult` records (engine-agnostic).
Severity → penalty: critical → hard override to mandatory block; high →
-0.2; medium → -0.05; low → -0.01; info → 0.0. One critical finding
hard-overrides the score regardless of all other inputs.
**BA.B:** thresholds frozen for v1; tuning begins v1.2 (quarterly FP/FN
tracking; override = Infra & Ops + SRE joint sign-off, itself a
confidence-event).
### Audit and evidence stream (§9)
Tiered ledger: **S3 with Object Lock in compliance mode** (cold, source of
truth, 7-year retention) + **GitHub audit repo** (`acdl-evidence`, hot
query index, not part of the chain). Daily checkpoints. Event schema: JWS
detached signature, `prev_event_hash` chain, controlled-vocabulary
`event_type`. Outbox pattern: local durable outbox + async worker.
Outbox database = **DynamoDB**. RPO = 0 (synchronous write to local outbox
before contract submission ack); RTO = async worker's dead-letter recovery.
Single-region in v1. The outbox also stores per-contract QA and prod
approver identities (the only durable record outside GitHub's audit log).
### Human-in-the-Loop mechanics (§10)
Pre-execution gates. qa, prod, dr are PR-based attestation gates backed by
GitHub Environments with required reviewers. No partial deployment to roll
back on rejection (qa, prod); dr is a separate GitHub Deployment against a
separate cluster/region.
Reviewer routing: GitHub CODEOWNERS + Environment required reviewers
(qa → QA; prod → SRE; dr → SRE). CODEOWNERS routes, does not enforce
identity distinctness.
**Separation of duties** (platform-internal, not GitHub-native, not Kyverno
in v1): on dev→qa promotion the platform writes the QA approver's GitHub
identity to the DynamoDB outbox keyed by `contractId`; on qa→prod it reads
the stored QA approver and the new SRE approver; if equal, it blocks, emits
`SEPARATION_OF_DUTIES_VIOLATION`, and routes a halt artifact to SRE on-call.
Full 8-concern attestation matrix (functional, performance, security
posture, contract NFRs, operational readiness, incident response,
capacity/cost, resilience) — see `docs/architecture.md` §10.4.
Timeout: 1 business day = warn + escalate; 2 business days = auto-freeze +
re-submit (linked via `supersedes`). Rejection returns the contract to HELD;
the audit chain is extended, not torn up.
### Agentic stack (§11)
Hybrid runtime: platform-managed control plane + consumer-owned agent.
Versioned, signed skill catalog over MCP. Skill envelope enforced on
invocation and result submission. Consumer-owned skill execution; the
platform does not run the skill. Stateless agents, all state in the
platform. Skills are reviewed for sensitive data before release (Infra &
Ops owns the review; it is the mandatory release gate).
### Angine execution (§12) — the binding constraint
**Target Stack IR** (locked): a engine-neutral description of resources
(typed inputs/outputs/NFRs), relationships (single parent per child),
composition (tree, max depth 5), and policy hooks. The L1 registry, L2
thin-composition tree, contract YML, and PolicyCheckResult schema are all
defined against the IR — none against any specific engine.
**Angine adapters** are the only engine-specific code. An adapter
compiles the IR into a engine execution plan. **v1 ships exactly one
adapter: the Terraform adapter.** v2+ may add OpenTofu, Pulumi, K8s CRDs
without architectural change.
v1 reality: the IR is shaped to round-trip cleanly to Terraform (nearly
isomorphic). As more adapters appear, the IR gets more expressive and the
adapters gain translation logic; the L1 content, the YML standard, and the
thin-composition tree do not change.
**Terraform adapter (v1):** translates IR-typed L1 interface → Terraform
`variable`/`output` blocks; IR-typed L2 thin-composition tree → Terraform
root module; IR-typed relationships → module references; emits a
`terraform plan` from the IR. The adapter is a thin layer; it does not own
L1/L2 content.
State storage: S3 (state) + DynamoDB (locking), cloud-managed,
single-region in v1.
Policy toolchain: **Checkov** for Terraform plan policy (the L2 checks +
tag/naming); **Kyverno** for K8s-native/platform-internal policy; **OPA**
reserved for cross-resource cases, explicitly last resort.
**Policy result normalization (§12.6):** the confidence signal consumes a
normalized `PolicyCheckResult` schema, not raw engine output.
```json
{
"contractId": "uuid",
"evaluatedAt": "ISO-8601",
"engine": "checkov | kyverno | opa",
"ruleId": "CKV_AWS_24 | KYVERNO_NO_PRIVILEGED | ...",
"severity": "critical | high | medium | low | info",
"result": "pass | fail | skipped | error",
"message": "human-readable",
"evidence": { "...engine-specific, opaque to the signal..." },
"resourceRef": "IR-typed resource identifier"
}
```
Execution layer: GitHub/Gitea Actions in the central pipeline repo. State
locking via DynamoDB. **AWS credentials via OIDC federation — long-lived
credentials are forbidden** (§12.5). The platform does not run
`terraform apply` against a developer's workstation; all execution is in
the central pipeline.
Registry maintenance: L1 publication updates the L1 registry in the same
PR. The registry is the IR-typed contract, not a Terraform-specific
variable schema.
Contract→IR resolution: the contract declares intent in IR-typed terms;
the pipeline resolves it to a target stack (list of L1 instances + inputs +
relationships); the Terraform adapter compiles the target stack to a plan.
## v1.1 spike scope
The spike (Phases 08–10) materializes the **minimum** that proves the IR
commitments hold (no polyglot mess):
- One L1: `l1-s3` (IR-typed interface; the only AWS resource in the spike).
- One L2 thin-composition: `l2-static-assets` (references `l1-s3` only).
- Terraform adapter: IR → `terraform plan` against AWS via OIDC.
- One contract submission → contract→IR → `terraform plan` → Checkov
`PolicyCheckResult` → confidence signal → evidence event to the DynamoDB
outbox.
- State: S3 + DynamoDB (real AWS, single-region).
Out of spike scope: full HITL matrix wiring, Kyverno, OPA, MCP skill
catalog, GitOps reconciler, multi-region, prod/dr environments, the 5-skill
L3B catalog. Those are post-spike (v1.2+) platform build-out.
## Gitea API surface (carried from v1.0, refined)
| Capability | Gitea support | ACDL approach (v1.1) |
|------------|---------------|----------------------|
| Org-scoped repo create | `POST /api/v1/orgs/{org}/repos` | Used for any new repos |
| Native Pages | **None** | Serve `acdl-evidence` via raw file URLs (unchanged from v1.0) |
| Environments API | **None**; act_runner ignores `environment:` | Model HITL gates via `workflow_dispatch` approval inputs (v1.0 D-013 pattern) — **refined in Phase 07** for the real pre-execution gate model |
| `repository_dispatch` | Not supported | Cross-repo trigger via `workflow_dispatch` API (unchanged) |
| Reusable workflows | Supported | `acdl/.gitea/workflows/pipeline.yml` via `uses: ...@<ref>` |
| `id-token: write` / OIDC | **Not supported** (RESEARCH TARGET 1, conf 0.95). Gitea docs list `id-token` as an unsupported GitHub-only scope; open proposal go-gitea/gitea#33681; draft PR go-gitea/gitea#36988 unmerged. Even Gitea's own CI uses long-lived AWS keys (issue #37980). | **Spike waiver D-039:** per-run-rotated long-lived key (rotated after each run by `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh`). Real OIDC deferred to v1.2, blocked on PR #36988. |
| `actions/configure-aws-credentials` | Unusable without OIDC | Spike uses static AWS creds from a (rotated) Gitea Actions secret via the `aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4` `access-key-id`/`secret-access-key` inputs, or plain `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`/`AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` env vars. v1.2 switches to `role-to-assume` when OIDC lands. |
### Branch pinning rule (refined for W2.A)
- Dev/qa contracts reference the reusable workflow by **tag**
(`@v1.1-spike`).
- Prod-bound workflows reference by **SHA**; the platform CLI
(`platform/cli/resolve-tag.ts`, Phase 07) resolves the current tag to its
SHA. (Spike scope: the CLI is a stub; the real CLI lands in v1.2.)
### Verification toolchain
ACDL has no `package.json`. The verification gate substitutes:
- **typecheck:** `terraform validate`, `python3 -m py_compile`, JSON Schema
validation (`ajv` or `python -m jsonschema`) against `schemas/`.
- **test:** per-phase `scripts/verify_phaseNN.sh` (Phase 06: archive integrity;
Phase 07: schema validation + decision-resolution completeness; Phase 08:
OIDC assume-role + state backend; Phase 09: IR + L1 + adapter `terraform
plan`; Phase 10: end-to-end contract submission).
- **build:** `terraform init` (real build for the spike).
- See `PERSONAS.md` verification_toolchain.
## Build order (v1.1)
1. Phase 06 — archive demo, reorient repo.
2. Phase 07 — finalize architecture v1.0; author schemas + designs.
3. Phase 08 — AWS OIDC bootstrap (use temp key once, rotate).
4. Phase 09 — IR + `l1-s3` + Terraform adapter → `terraform plan`.
5. Phase 10 — `l2-static-assets` + contract→IR → end-to-end spike.
6. COMPLETE gate — review → ship `v1.2.0` → audit. **DONE.**
## v1.2 build-out scope
v1.2 takes the v1.1 spike (dev-only, `plan`-only, single S3 L1) to a real,
simpler, better-documented platform that delivers a microservice to AWS ECS
Fargate end-to-end. The locked architecture (§1–§12) is unchanged — v1.2
extends the *implementation*, not the design.
### In scope (five axes, user-directed 2026-07-21)
1. **Re-evaluate the current state.** go-gitea/gitea#36988 (OIDC for Gitea
Actions) re-checked 2026-07-21: still **open** (last updated 2026-05-27,
not merged). Real OIDC remains deferred to v1.3+; v1.2 extends the D-039
per-run-rotated-key waiver as **D-047**. The waiver continues to satisfy
§12.5's *intent* (no *persistently* long-lived key): the spike key is
rotated after each run by `scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh`, and Phase 12
tightens the IAM scoping + rotation hygiene.
2. **NFR improvements on the existing spike.** Least-privilege IAM audit of
`spike_runner_policy.json`; idempotent `create_state_backend.py` /
`create_iam_user.py`; proper exit codes / error handling; P1-1 redaction
(two AWS access key IDs in `.ciagent/VERIFY.md` Phase 09 narrative).
3. **Streamline / simplify the current setup.** Consolidate
`run_spike_plan.sh` + `run_spike_e2e.sh` into one
`scripts/run_platform.sh`; remove dead code and stale `platform/` paths.
4. **README.md fully up to date on how the platform works.** Reflect v1.1
complete; document the actual spike flow, `scripts/run_platform.sh`, the
real repo layout, and the v1.2 objective.
5. **Bootstrap a consumer repo with a basic microservice deployed to ECS
end-to-end.** New Gitea repo `acdl-consumer-microservice` (org
`continuous-intelligence`); new IR-typed L1s (`l1-vpc`, `l1-ecs-cluster`,
`l1-ecs-service`, `l1-iam-role`, `l1-alb`, `l1-ecr`); new
`l2-microservice` thin-composition; one contract submission →
`terraform apply` (dev, autonomous per §10, confidence ≥ 0.50) → a live
ECS Fargate service serving HTTP 200 → evidence event to the DynamoDB
outbox → acdl-evidence timeline.
### Angine extension (ECS Fargate)
The Terraform adapter (§12) remains the only engine-specific code. v1.2
expands the adapter `TYPE_MAP` to cover the six new ECS-shaped IR resource
types. The L1 interface shape (IR-typed inputs/outputs/NFRs, registered in
`modules-ir/registry.json`) is unchanged — only the set of registered L1s
grows. The IR commitments (REQ-28) continue to hold: `modules-ir/`,
`schemas/`, `contracts/`, `core/confidence_signal.py`,
`core/contract_resolver.py`, `core/outbox_writer.py`
remain engine-agnostic.
### `terraform apply` (dev only)
v1.2 lifts the engine execution from `plan` to `apply` for the `dev`
environment only. Dev is autonomous per §10 (confidence ≥ 0.50, no HITL).
`apply` for qa/prod/dr remains HITL-gated and out of scope for v1.2. The
apply result (resources created, plan diff) is captured in the evidence
stream as a `terraform.apply` event.
### Out of scope for v1.2 (deferred to v1.3+)
| Feature | Reason |
|---------|--------|
| Real OIDC federation | go-gitea/gitea#36988 still open. v1.2 extends D-039 waiver (D-047); real OIDC is v1.3+. |
| Full HITL matrix wiring (qa/prod/dr) | v1.2 is dev-only autonomous `apply`; HITL wiring is v1.3. |
| Kyverno + OPA policy engines | v1.2 keeps Checkov only; Kyverno/OPA are v1.3. |
| MCP skill catalog + real L3B agent | v1.2 keeps the L3B stub; the 5-skill catalog is v1.3. |
| Audit ledger build-out (S3 Object Lock + JWS + async worker + DLQ + daily checkpoints) | v1.2 keeps the v1.1 outbox; the regulatory ledger is v1.3. |
| Multi-region state / outbox | Single-region in v1 (§9, §12.3); multi-region is v1.3+. |
| Prod/dr environments | v1.2 is dev-only; prod/dr are v1.3. |
| GitOps reconciler (ArgoCD/Flux) | v1.3+. |
## Build order (v1.2)
1. Phase 11 — re-eval #36988 + NFR audit + simplification findings + README rewrite.
2. Phase 12 — NFR harden + simplify (idempotent bootstrap, one `run_platform.sh`, IAM audit, redactions).
3. Phase 13 — six ECS L1s + adapter `TYPE_MAP` expansion.
4. Phase 14 — `l2-microservice` + contract schema extension.
5. Phase 15 — consumer repo + `terraform apply` (dev) → live ECS service.
6. Phase 16 — capstone e2e: consumer commit → live HTTP 200 → evidence → timeline.
7. COMPLETE gate — review → ship `v1.3.0` → audit.
## v1.8 Architecture Addendum
> Milestone v1.8 (complete, tag `v1.8.0`). Adds encryption-by-default,
> deletion-protection-by-default, uptime monitoring, decommission alias,
> engineering standards, and path documentation.
### New Primitives
- **`kms-key`** (`aws:kms:key`) — Per-stack customer-managed KMS key with
`enable_key_rotation = true`. One key per L2 deployment (no shared keys).
Wired into both L2 compositions as a child, with its `kms_key_arn` output
connected to all children's `kms_key_arn` input. Adapter emits
`aws_kms_key` + `enable_key_rotation`.
- **`uptime`** (`aws:ecs:uptime-service`) — Uptime-kuma on ECS Fargate with
a feature flag (`feature_flag_enabled`), monitored endpoints (HTTP/DNS/TCP),
alert channels (Teams/email/SMS/GitHub issues). Deployed by default after
any L2 module with a separate terraform state. When the feature flag is
false, the adapter emits no resources.
### Encryption by Default
All 12 L1 primitives have `encryption_enabled` NFR (default true). Primitives
with at-rest data (s3, rds, ecr, ecs-service, ecs-cluster) have an optional
`kms_key_arn` input. The adapter emits encryption blocks (SSE-KMS for S3,
storage_encrypted for RDS, encryption_configuration for ECR) referencing the
per-stack CMK when provided. Managed KMS fallback with stderr warning for
standalone L1 deployments.
### Deletion Protection by Default
All 12 L1 primitives have `deletion_protection` NFR (default true). The
adapter emits `lifecycle { prevent_destroy = true }` when true. L2 modules
expose a `features.deletion_protection` flag (default true) propagated to
all children via the resolver. Setting `inputs.deletion_protection: false`
in the contract disables it for the whole stack.
### Decommission Alias
A `mode: decommission` on the deploy pipeline implements a 2-step destroy:
1. Disable deletion protection (resolve with `deletion_protection: false`,
terraform plan/apply, HITL SRE gate via GitHub environment).
2. Zero counts + destroy (`decommission_transform` zeroes all scalable counts,
terraform plan/apply, second HITL SRE gate).
CMDB validation via DynamoDB `acdl-change-requests` table. The Lambda
`validate_change_request` action queries the table and asserts
`status == "approved"` + `consumerRepo` match.
### Adapter Expansion
TYPE_MAP grew from 16 to 19 entries (+ `aws:kms:key`, `aws:kms:alias`,
`aws:ecs:uptime-service`). Specialized emission branches added for KMS key
rotation, S3 SSE-KMS configuration, uptime ECS Fargate task, and
`prevent_destroy` lifecycle on all resources.
### Pipeline Stages
The deploy pipeline grew from 8 to 9 stages (+ `deploy-uptime` after
`publish-outputs`). The `deploy-uptime` stage constructs a synthetic uptime
contract from the L2 stack outputs, resolves + adapts it to a separate
terraform state directory, and publishes the uptime URL via PR comment.
### Forge-Agnostic API URLs
The platform Lambda (`contract_ingestor.py`) reads `GITHUB_API_BASE` env
for forge-agnostic API URLs. GitHub uses `/search/issues`; Gitea uses
`/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues`. Detection via `/api/v1` in the base URL.
## v1.9 Addendum (2026-07-23)
### New Components
- **`core/contract_resolver.py` interpolation** (D-081): the resolver
now expands `${env.<field>}` + `${contract.<field>}` tokens
post-schema-validation, pre-IR-resolution. The env context is the
loaded environment onboarding JSON (`core/environments/<name>.json`,
schema `schemas/environment.schema.json`). The resolver's
`child_input_map` routes L2 wires to the sub-resource that declares the
input (P1-1 — `desired_count` → `aws:ecs:service`, `family` →
`aws:ecs:task_definition`).
- **`core/environment_check.py` `load()`** (REQ-104): loads + returns the
parsed environment JSON; emits a stderr warning for placeholder
`account_id` when env != dev.
- **`core/hitl_gates.py`** (REQ-108, D-084): the HITL pre-execution
attestation gate. Records the approver identity to the DynamoDB outbox
(`approver_qa`/`approver_prod`/`approver_dr`), runs the separation-of-
duties check on prod, invokes the attestation matrix, returns
`(ok, reason)`. Dev skips (autonomous). `run_platform.sh` calls
`attest` before apply for qa/prod/dr.
- **`core/attestation_matrix.py`** (REQ-109, D-084): the 8-concern
attestation matrix from `hitl_matrix_design.md` §10.4. Offline-testable
concerns (contract NFRs, schema validity, policy pass) run for real;
operator-supplied concerns accept signed evidence artifacts validated
for freshness + schema. Signature verification skips when
`ACDL_ATTESTATION_SIGNING_KEY_ID` is unset (D-089).
- **`core/separation_of_duties.py` `route_halt_artifact`** (REQ-107):
real SNS publish (`acdl-sod-halt` topic, ARN from
`ACDL_SOD_HALT_TOPIC_ARN`) + outbox fallback
(`SEPARATION_OF_DUTIES_VIOLATION` event). The SNS topic is defined in
`terraform/platform/main.tf`.
- **`adapters/wiz/wiz_adapter.py` `WizClient`** (REQ-110): real GraphQL
API client (`<WIZ_API_URL>/graphql`, Bearer auth, pagination via
`pageInfo.hasNextPage`). `fetch_and_adapt` translates issues →
`PolicyCheckResult`. Graceful degrade when unconfigured.
- **`adapters/kyverno/kyverno_adapter.py`** (REQ-111): fleshed-out
`PolicyReport` → `PolicyCheckResult` mapping (pass/fail/skip/warn +
severity + skip-with-reason + resource construction). Inactive-for-TF
guard preserved.
### Per-Environment Promotion (D-082)
The deploy workflow (`.github/workflows/deploy.yml` +
`.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`, byte-identical) declares an `environment`
`workflow_call` input. When non-empty, `run_platform.sh --environment
<name>` overrides the contract's `environment` field before schema
validation (D-088). One CI job per environment; promotion = running the
matching job, no `environment:` field editing. Per-env contract files
(`contracts/<module>.<env>.yaml`) use interpolation for env-specific
values.
### Adapter Parameterization (P1-1, D-085)
The adapter (`adapters/terraform/adapter.py`) reads ECS/ALB/VPC defaults
from L1 `interface.json` inputs (`desired_count`, `launch_type`,
`family`, `target_type`, `load_balancer_type`, `name`). The adapter is a
thin translator; the `child_input_map` routes wires to the declaring
sub-resource.
### Deferred (D-083)
S3 Object Lock + JWS detached signatures + async worker + DLQ + daily
checkpoints (audit ledger build-out) — deferred to a future milestone.
The hash-chain + DynamoDB-outbox path remains the v1.9 production audit
record.
## v1.10 Addendum — Regression VERIFY + Local Emulators + Capability Re-Verification
### Regression-Class VERIFY (D-091, `core/regression_verify.py`)
The standard VERIFY stage was diff-scoped (it checked the phase diff
only, never re-ran underlying capability). This let 8 NFR-patch phases
(v1.9.1–v1.9.8) pass while the platform decayed. The regression-class
VERIFY (`core/regression_verify.py`) re-runs capability checks against
the current codebase and tags each Verified/Decayed/Broken. It fails
closed on any non-Verified capability, blocking milestone completion.
The registry (`CAPABILITY_REGISTRY`) holds 16 capability checks
(CAP-001..CAP-016): 12 local-tier + 4 live-AWS. Adding a capability is
a single function + one registry entry. The gate runs via
`scripts/run_regression.sh` and writes `.ciagent/REGRESSION_REPORT.md`
+ `.json`.
### Local Emulating Adapters (D-092, `core/local_emulators.py`)
Four local adapters let the platform run the full headline E2E without
cloud credentials:
- `FlatFileOutbox` — flat-file DynamoDB outbox emulator (hash-chained
JSONL; resumable across instances; chain verification).
- `LocalEcsEmulator` — local ECS Fargate HTTP 200 emulator (binds port
0 on 127.0.0.1; daemon thread; clean destroy).
- `LocalS3StateBackend` — rewrites the terraform S3 backend to a local
backend (per-stack tfstate in a temp folder).
- `LocalLambdaStub` — invokes the contract_ingestor handler in-process
(patches `_get_dynamodb`/`_get_secrets_client`/`urllib.urlopen`;
DynamoDB writes redirected to the FlatFileOutbox).
`run_local_e2e()` runs the full pipeline: contract → resolver → adapter
→ local S3 backend → local ECS (HTTP 200) → flat-file outbox (chain
verified) → local Lambda (200). Gated on `ACDL_LOCAL_TIER=1`.
### Capability Re-Verification Sweep (D-093)
`.ciagent/CAPABILITY_INVENTORY.md` enumerates 16 auto-verified
capabilities + 6 IAM-gated escalated resources. The sweep found and
fixed 7 adapter defects in `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` (duplicate
outputs, duplicate args, missing required args, deprecated AWS provider
v5 arg names). The headline E2E now passes at both tiers: local
emulator + live-AWS terraform init/validate/plan.
### Adapter Defect Fixes (P54)
7 defects fixed in `adapters/terraform/adapter.py`:
1. Duplicate output definitions (per-resource + stack-level both emitted).
2. Duplicate `desired_count`/`launch_type` on ECS service.
3. Duplicate `target_type`/`family`/`load_balancer_type`.
4. Missing `assume_role_policy`/`role_name` on IAM role (L2 composition gap).
5. Missing `cidr_block`/`vpc_id`/`name` defaults on VPC/subnet/route_table/
ECS cluster/ECR repository.
6. ECR `kms_key_arn` unsupported arg → `encryption_configuration` block.
7. CloudFront OAC + WAF deprecated arg names (AWS provider v5):
`signing_behavior`, `signing_protocol`, `origin_access_control_id`,
`s3_origin_config.origin_access_identity`, `origin_id`, `rule`
(singular), `scope=CLOUDFRONT` (uppercase).
## v1.11 Addendum — Stateless Adapter + Pipeline-Driven Lifecycle Testing
**Stateless adapter (D-098).** `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` rewritten
from a 918-line monolith (3 constant tables `TYPE_MAP`/`INPUT_MAP`/
`OUTPUT_MAP`, 39 type-specific branches) to a ~80-line stateless assembler.
Each L1 module ships a real `terraform/` module dir
(`versions.tf`/`variables.tf`/`locals.tf`/`main.tf`/`outputs.tf`) owning
its resource shape, nested blocks, and defaults. The adapter reads the
registry, emits a root `main.tf` instantiating each L1 as
`module "x" { source = "..." }` with resolved inputs and wired refs.
**Terraform owns lifecycle (D-101).** `scripts/run_platform.sh` gains
`--apply` and `--destroy` modes. Python never runs terraform.
`scripts/verify_deploy_microservice.py` is deleted.
**Pipeline-driven testing (D-102).** A `modules-lifecycle` pipeline
(Gitea + GitHub, byte-identical) matrix-runs each L1 module's
`examples/{simple,complex}.yml` contracts through apply→modify→destroy
against live AWS. No per-module Python/pytest. The "test" = the pipeline
cell going green.
**Single platform VPC (D-105).** `terraform/platform/main.tf` owns ONE
VPC; the microservice composition references it via
`terraform_remote_state` (data source). State keys are deterministic and
env-aware (`spike/{contract.id}/{contract.environment}/terraform.tfstate`).
**NOVA_LIFECYCLE_MODE (v1.12, REQ-134; renamed ACDL→NOVA in v1.15 P2).** The lifecycle pipeline defaults
to plan-only (fast, no AWS mutation, no cost). A CI variable
`NOVA_LIFECYCLE_MODE` (default `plan`) overrides to `full` for the real
apply→modify→destroy. (P2–P4 dual-read fallback to `ACDL_LIFECYCLE_MODE`;
fallback removed in P5 per the v1.15 addendum.)
## v1.12 Addendum — Presentation Refinement + CAP-013 Fix
**CAP-013 adapter dedup fix (REQ-129).** Multi-resource L1s (ecs-service,
alb) with stack outputs + cross-module refs now dedup to ONE module block
named by the composition child id, with expanded sub-ids rewritten via
`id_remap`. `terraform validate` succeeds for the microservice stack.
**CAP-017/018 probe fixes (REQ-130).** CAP-017's probe no longer requires
`locals.tf` for modules that legitimately omit it. CAP-018's probe
instantiates `LocalLambdaStub` with the required `outbox` arg.
## v1.13 Addendum — Presentation Polish + Config Schema Migration
**Config.json schema migration (v1.13.1).** Regenerated
`.ciagent/config.json` to the updated CIAgent v2 config structure (drop
removed fields, migrate `gitea`→`release.gitea`, add
`secrets`/`ship`/`backend`/`ideation`/`personas`/`logging`/`telemetry`
sections).
**Presentation polish (v1.13.0, v1.13.2).** Action headlines, story-arc
restructure, larger fonts, 6 new mermaid diagrams, badge cleanup,
platform-architecture diagram. Docs-only NFR patches.
## v1.14 Addendum — NFR Refinement (bug fixes, security, stubs, tests, docs)
**Bug fixes (Wave 1, P1-P6).** Adapter dedup rejects unregistered modules
with ValueError (P1). Static-assets composition wires cloudfront inputs
(P2). L2 lifecycle scripts document remote-state design (P3). Regression
gate adds `terraform fmt -check` syntax probe (P4). Adapter dedup-merge +
remote-state-key unit tests (P5). ALB target group name_prefix derives
from var.name (P6).
**Security (Wave 2, P7-P12).** 6 swallowed-error sites narrowed to
specific exceptions (P7). Account ID externalized to
`ACDL_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID` env (P8). IAM policy scoped to `acdl-*` ARNs (P9).
Contract ingestor validates contractId/environment/error (P10). Environment
schema adds `additionalProperties: false` + format validation (P11).
`.gitignore` credential-pattern catch-all (P12).
**Stub/test/CI/hygiene (Wave 3, P13-P17).** Kyverno `--kube-version` flag
removed (P13, G-103). Orphan artifacts + dead config cleaned (P14). 7
untested scripts gain test coverage (P15). Gitea workflow parity
documented + script `set` flags fixed (P16). Config.json persona +
branching strategy + ollama-cloud aligned (P17).
**Standards/docs/VPC (Wave 4, P18-P20).** STANDARDS.md reconciled (P18).
Documentation synced: ARCHITECTURE.md addenda, stale `@v1.6-1.9` → `@v1.13`,
GRILL G-005/G-008 resolved, COST.md window extended, D-083 deferral
recorded (P19). Platform VPC CIDR parameterized + data-driven subnet
count (P20).
**D-083 deferral (explicit).** The audit ledger build-out (S3 Object Lock
+ JWS detached signatures + SQS DLQ + async worker + daily checkpoints)
remains deferred (D-096, v1.14). The hash-chain + DynamoDB outbox is the
v1.14 audit record. JWS per-event authenticity is not implemented; a
forged event is only detectable by re-reading the whole chain. The
deferral is documented here explicitly per the v1.14 grill (E-001).

## v1.15 Addendum — Nova Rebrand (Major/breaking, 2026-07-30)
**Milestone:** v1.15-Nova. A full rebrand from **ACDL** / "Agentic Cloud
Delivery Platform" → **Nova** / "The New Dawn of DevSecOps — security
as a seamless enabler of fast deployments." This is a **Major
milestone** (breaking): consumer-facing path, env var prefixes, SSM
path, AWS tag keys, and AWS resource names all change. Per the
branch-strategy precedent (breaking/feature milestones tag on their
OWN minor line), v1.15 tags run on the **v1.15.x minor line**:
`v1.15.0` (P0) → `v1.15.4` (P5 final = release). (G-104 binding.)

### Unchanged conventions (out of scope)
- **S&P Global Energy visual theme** (`sp-theme.json`, deck CSS: #D6002A
red, Akkurat Pro) — client branding, not the Nova product brand (D-107).
- **config.json `release.gitea.repo`** = `acdl` — real Gitea repo name
unchanged (D-105). Doc URLs updated to `nova` for prose only.
- **Git branch/tag naming** — `milestone/v*`, `phase/*`, `v*` semver; no
brand name present (D-112: flat-branch convention preserved).
- **Past Gitea release titles** — existing releases keep `ACDL vX.Y.Z`.
### Migration ordering (binding)
1. **P1** docs/decks/prose — no runtime impact; ships consumer migration
guide announcing the 5 breaking changes.
2. **P2** code + env vars (dual-read) + consumer path — deployments don't
break during the transition window (dual-read fallback).
3. **P3** SSM path (copy → read → delete) + tag keys (parallel-tag →
policy swap → remove old).
4. **P4** AWS resource names — staged terraform migration (KMS alias,
SNS/SG/Lambda recreate, DynamoDB scan+copy, ECR re-push, IAM
re-bootstrap, state bucket `-migrate-state`, ALB recreate). Maintenance
window + rollback runbook (`docs/NOVA_AWS_MIGRATION.md`).
5. **P5** final review + audit + remove dual-read fallback + milestone ship.
### Capability gate (binding)
The regression gate (CAP-001..CAP-016, `scripts/run_regression.sh`) must
stay **16/16 Verified** throughout the rebrand. P2/P3/P4 update test
fixtures that reference `ACDL`/`acdl` so the gate stays green. No
capability is added, removed, or reclassified in v1.15 — the rebrand is
nomenclature + identifiers, not behavior.
---
## v1.16 Addendum — Nova Simplification (NFR, 2026-07-30)
The v1.16 NFR milestone added 6 new code components + 1 new Terraform
module + 1 new schema, all documented here for the architecture record.
### New components
| Component | Path | Purpose |
|-----------|------|---------|
| Onboarding request handler | `core/onboarding.py` | `generate_env_file(request, template_env)` — produces a `<env>.json` from a consumer onboarding request (P19, REQ-183). CLI entry point for self-service env-file generation. |
| Decommission transform | `core/decommission_transform.py` | `decommission_transform(stack)` — zero counts + disable deletion protection (REQ-92). Extracted from contract_resolver (P12, REQ-176). |
| Contract resolver CLI | `core/contract_resolver_cli.py` | `main()` CLI entry point — resolves a contract YAML to a Target Stack JSON. Extracted from contract_resolver (P12, REQ-176). |
| Regression verify CLI | `core/regression_verify_cli.py` | `main()` CLI entry point — runs the regression gate + writes the report. Extracted from regression_verify (P13, REQ-177). |
| Workflow sync generator | `scripts/sync_workflows.py` | `--check`/`--write` — generates the 3 byte-identical Gitea+GitHub workflow pairs from `workflows-src/` (P8, REQ-172). |
| Onboarding Terraform | `terraform/onboarding/` | `aws_iam_role.consumer_deploy` + `aws_iam_role_policy.consumer_invoke` (ABAC `nova:owner` tag). Offline-proven only (P20, REQ-184, D-114). |
### Modified components
| Component | Change | Phase |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| `core/contract_resolver.py` | `_load_env` delegates to `environment_check.load()` (dedup); `is_l2` uses registry `kind` field; `_load_schema` caches schemas; `decommission_transform` + CLI re-export shim (P12). | P7, P12, P14 |
| `core/regression_verify.py` | Dedup helpers (`_check_resolver`, `_check_live_terraform_plan`, `_assert_contracts_resolve`); CAP-013..016 `Skipped` on post-teardown (G-111); `passed` accepts Skipped; CLI re-export shim (P13). | P5, P9, P13 |
| `core/lambda/contract_ingestor.py` | Fail closed on missing IAM identity (P10); env enum from `core/environments/` (P10); payload size cap + schema validation (P11); `onboard_consumer` action (P18); `[NOVA-ALERT]` rebrand (P2). | P2, P10, P11, P18 |
| `core/output_publisher.py` | `SAFE_OUTPUT_NAMES` schema-driven from `interface.json`; narrowed excepts; `urllib.error` import (P4, P14). | P4, P14 |
| `core/environment_check.py` | Onboarding message rebranded Nova + self-service request path (P2, P19). | P2, P19 |
| `core/local_emulators.py` | `LocalLambdaStub` sets `NOVA_LAMBDA_LOCAL_BYPASS`; stale dual-read comments + `acdl_*` prefixes removed (P3, P10). | P3, P10 |
| `scripts/run_platform.sh` | `--help` flag; `run_hitl_gate()` fn; `NOVA_CONTRACT_ID`/`NOVA_WORK_DIR` config; decommission + uptime blocks extracted to sourced helpers (P6, P9, P15). | P6, P9, P15 |
| `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` | State bucket `nova-tfstate-*` (P1); module docstring Nova (P2). | P1, P2 |
| `adapters/kyverno/policies/require-resource-labels.yml` | `nova:*` labels (not `acdl:*`) (P1). | P1 |
| `modules/registry.json` | `kind` field (`l1`/`l2`) on all 14 entries (P7). | P7 |
### New schema
- `schemas/onboarding.schema.json` — the self-service onboarding request
(consumerRepo, requestedEnvironment, ownerId, billingTag). P18, REQ-182.
### Onboarding request-path architecture (D-113)
The no-humans onboarding flow is a 3-step request path (real AWS
provisioning deferred):
```
Consumer → POST Lambda (onboard_consumer) → pending CMDB row (P18)
→ core/onboarding.py → <env>.json binding file (P19)
→ terraform/onboarding/ → cross-account role + ABAC tag (P20, offline)
```
The Lambda Function URL (IAM auth) + `consumer_invoke_policy.json` (ABAC
`nova:owner`) are the transport; the request is accepted + a binding
generated + the role Terraform proven offline. No AWS resources are
created by the request path (D-113/D-114).
### Regression gate (G-111 binding)
The regression gate (D-091) now treats `Skipped` as acceptable for the
post-v1.11-teardown steady state (D-096): CAP-013..016 (live-AWS tier)
return `Skipped` when the resources are absent (`NoSuchBucket`/
`ResourceNotFoundException`). `RegressionReport.passed` is
`all(r.status in ("Verified", "Skipped"))`. The gate passes at 18
Verified + 4 Skipped (0 Decayed/Broken).
## v1.17 Addendum — Strategic Direction, Leadership Metrics & Unified Story (2026-08-04)
The v1.17 milestone adds a telemetry/observability layer, a Decision
Ledger, a metrics export pipeline, a unified narrative deck, and a
durable strategic-direction artifact. This addendum documents the
architecture; the full research findings are in RESEARCH.md §v1.17.
### New components
| Component | Path | Purpose |
|-----------|------|---------|
| Event envelope | `core/metrics/event_envelope.py` | CloudEvents 1.0 envelope + `platform.*` semantic conventions (P1, REQ-187) |
| Per-run manifest writer | `core/metrics/run_manifest.py` | Emits `nova.run.started/completed/failed` events + writes `metrics/runs/<run_id>.json` (P1, REQ-187) |
| Decision Ledger (SQLite) | `core/metrics/decision_ledger.py` | Extends `outbox_writer.py` → SQLite append-only hash-chain table; `ai.decision.made` + `attestation.recorded` events + outcome backfill (P1, REQ-188, D-121) |
| Infracost post-processor | `core/metrics/infracost_adapter.py` | Runs Infracost on plan JSON; emits `nova.cost.estimated{delta_usd}` (P1, REQ-187, D-120) |
| Metrics collector | `core/metrics/collector.py` | Reads all grounded signals (files + events) → SQLite cold store at `metrics/nova_metrics.db` (P2, REQ-189) |
| PowerBI export | `core/metrics/powerbi_export.py` | Emits CSV/JSON views to `metrics/powerbi/` (fact + dim + 8 deferred placeholder views) (P3, REQ-190) |
| Metrics schemas | `schemas/metrics_*.schema.json` | Schemas for all event types + fact/dim tables (P1–P2, REQ-187/189) |
| Metrics catalog | `docs/METRICS.md` + `docs/metrics/<kpi>.md` | Canonical catalog + per-KPI definition-of-success docs (P4, REQ-195, D-127) |
| Unified narrative deck | `docs/presentations/nova-no-humans-platform.md` | Merged deck: Problem→Vision→How→Proof→Roadmap; x3 arc at deck+slide level (P5, REQ-196/197, D-130) |
| Strategic direction | `.ciagent/NORTH_STAR.md` | PO-authored durable vision/objectives/anti-goals/targets; read by CIAgent in every future `/ci-run` (P0, REQ-185/186) |
### Modified components
| Component | Change | Phase |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| `core/outbox_writer.py` | Extended to emit to SQLite append-only hash-chain table (Decision Ledger); `ai.decision.made` + `attestation.recorded` events added (P1, D-121) | P1 |
| `scripts/run_platform.sh` | Per-run manifest writer invoked; `$WORK/*.json` persisted to `metrics/runs/`; Infracost post-processor invoked after plan (P1) | P1 |
| `core/hitl_gates.py` | Emits `attestation.recorded` event to Decision Ledger on qa/prod/dr gate (P1, D-132) | P1 |
| `core/confidence_signal.py` | Emits `nova.confidence.computed` + `nova.ai.decision.made` events (P1, D-122) | P1 |
| `adapters/terraform/policy/checkov_adapter.py` | Emits `nova.policy.evaluated` event (P1) | P1 |
| `core/regression_verify.py` | Emits `nova.capability.verified` event; CAP-023 (metrics collector) + CAP-024 (deck structure) added (P1, P6) | P1, P6 |
| `pyproject.toml` | `addopts` gains `--junitxml=metrics/test-results.xml` + `--json-report` (P1, D-120) | P1 |
| `docs/presentations/` | Two old decks retired (deleted); unified deck added (P5, D-130) | P5 |

```
**Hot path: deferred (D-126).** No live ops dashboard; SQLite is
cold-only (batch/historical). The hot path activates when live AWS is
re-provisioned (D-096 lift).
### NORTH_STAR integration point (REQ-186)
`.ciagent/NORTH_STAR.md` is read by CIAgent in context-loading for all
future milestones. The integration mechanism (to be finalized in P4):
a reference from `PROJECT.md` + `ARCHITECTURE.md` (this section) + a
config entry in `config.json` (`strategic_direction_file:
".ciagent/NORTH_STAR.md"`) that the run workflow reads at SPECIFY. This
ensures the strategic direction survives across milestones without
being overwritten by status updates.
### §12.7 — Policy Engine Registry (v1.25, REQ-291)
The policy-engine abstraction is first-class: a swappable `PolicyEngine`
protocol so the engine may change without touching the confidence
signal, the pipeline, or the `PolicyCheckResult` schema. This is the
**swap boundary** that keeps the platform's compliance posture
replaceable (Strategic Objective #2 — provable trust via a replaceable
substrate, not a vendor lock-in).
```
contract.yml ─┐ ┌─→ list[PolicyCheckResult] ─┐
stack IR ─────┼─→ PolicyEngine.evaluate ├─→ list[PolicyCheckResult] ─┼─→ confidence_signal
plan JSON ────┤ (protocol) └─→ list[PolicyCheckResult] ─┘ (engine-agnostic,
PCR list ─────┘ unchanged)
│
▼
┌─ KyvernoJsonEngine (shells to `kj scan`; engine: "kyverno")
└─ OpaEngine (future — same protocol; engine: "opa")
checkov/wiz ──→ raw findings ──→ (merged PCR list is the meta-policy payload)
```
**The protocol (`core/policy_engine.py`):**
```python
class PolicyEngine(Protocol):
@property
def name(self) -> str: ...
def is_configured(self) -> bool: ...
def evaluate(self, payload, policy_dir: Path, contract_id: str) -> list[dict]: ...
```
**The registry** reads `config.json.policy.engine` (default
`"kyverno-json"`) and returns the active engine. A `NullEngine` is the
fallback when the `policy` key is absent (emits `SKIPPED` PCRs —
backward compatibility for tests that don't set the key). The
confidence signal is **untouched** — it already consumes
`list[PolicyCheckResult]` engine-agnostically (§12.6). v1.25 only
changes *who produces* the PCR list, not *what* the list is.
**Engine enum reuse (D-116):** kyverno-json PCR records carry
`engine: "kyverno"` (no new enum value). The `engine` field records the
policy-engine *family*, not the specific binary. The K8s Kyverno adapter
and the kyverno-json engine are distinguished by `ruleId` prefix
(`KYVERNO_` vs `KJ_`) and `evidence` payload shape (`namespace`/`kind`
vs `assertion`/`jmespath`).
**Defense-in-depth (D-119):** the declarative meta-policy
`block-on-any-critical` (asserts no PCR has `severity: critical` +
`result: fail`) is the *source of truth* for "critical = block". The
`confidence_signal.py` `PENALTY["critical"]: None` hard-override stays
as the *imperative* safety net — the meta-policy runs *before* the
confidence signal (produces PCRs that flow in), the hard-override runs
*inside* it (the last gate). Removing the hard-override would make the
"critical = block" guarantee depend on a single policy file — a
regression in provable trust.
**Graceful degradation (D-120):** `KyvernoJsonEngine.is_configured()`
returns false when `which kj` is absent → `evaluate()` returns a single
`SKIPPED` PCR (`ruleId: "KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED"`). The platform
functions without the binary (the "platform functions without AI /
deterministic scripts" tenet holds — kyverno-json is deterministic, not
AI; the `is_configured()` guard ensures the platform runs even when the
binary is not installed).

# `.ciagent/archive/` — Completed-Milestone History
This directory holds byte-identical snapshots of `.ciagent/` files that
were compressed out of the active agent context. Compression is **lossless
via relocation**: every original byte is reachable here, and the git
history at the commit prior to compression preserves the authoritative
state for offline agent loading.
## Why archive
The active milestone is v1.26 (Live Pilot Estate Activation). The
`.ciagent/` root held ~11,164 lines dominated by completed-milestone
narratives (v1.0–v1.24). Per the run.md context-loading model, agents
read `.ciagent/` every `/ci-run`; the historical narrative was not
load-bearing for v1.26 execution and was relocated to keep the working
context lean.
## Contents
### Snapshots of slimmed files (full content before compression)
| File | Original (lines) | Replaces | Status at time of snapshot |
|---|---|---|---|
| `PROJECT-v1.0-v1.24.md` | 1784 | `.ciagent/PROJECT.md` | v1.0–v1.24 milestone-by-milestone narrative + active milestone v1.26 sections |
| `REQUIREMENTS-v1.0-v1.24.md` | 2490 | `.ciagent/REQUIREMENTS.md` | All requirements v1.0 (REQ-01) through v1.26 (REQ-322) |
| `ROADMAP-v1.0-v1.24.md` | 2341 | `.ciagent/ROADMAP.md` | All phase breakdowns v1.0 through v1.26 |
| `ARCHITECTURE-v1.0-v1.24.md` | 945 | `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` | Full architecture reference + historical "how we got here" narrative |
The slimmed in-place files retain: active milestone v1.26 context, the
v1.25 milestone (since v1.26 tags ride the v1.25.x line), the durable
vision/tenets/RACI/capability-status sections, and the current-state
architecture reference.
### Completed-phase artifacts (relocated verbatim)
| File | Original (lines) | Phase(s) documented |
|---|---|---|
| `REVIEW.md` | 111 | Multi-persona code review records from completed phases |
| `AUDIT.md` | 553 | Project health audit records (reconstruction tests, branch hygiene) |
| `VERIFY.md` | 86 | Per-phase verification records |
| `PRE_MORTEM.md` | 228 | Pre-mortem analyses for completed milestones |
### Live operational files NOT archived
These files remain at their canonical `.ciagent/` paths because they are
read/write targets of live code paths and must not be relocated:
- `REGRESSION_REPORT.json` — written by `core/regression_verify.py:705`,
read by `core/metrics/collector.py:27` + `core/metrics/trust_snapshot.py:21`
+ `metrics/` views.
- `REGRESSION_REPORT.md` — written by `core/regression_verify.py:704`,
referenced by `scripts/run_regression.sh`.
- `CHECKPOINT.json` — the authoritative resume point for `/ci-run`.
- `config.json` — operational configuration (no historical content).
## How to load archived content
Agents that need completed-milestone history can read these files
directly (they live inside `.ciagent/`, so the path convention holds):
```
.ciagent/archive/PROJECT-v1.0-v1.24.md
.ciagent/archive/REQUIREMENTS-v1.0-v1.24.md
.ciagent/archive/ROADMAP-v1.0-v1.24.md
.ciagent/archive/ARCHITECTURE-v1.0-v1.24.md
.ciagent/archive/{REVIEW,AUDIT,VERIFY,PRE_MORTEM}.md
```
For the authoritative pre-compression state of any `.ciagent/` file,
use git history at the commit immediately preceding the compression
commit (search the log for `chore(P02): compress .ciagent/ files`).
## `completed-milestones/`
Reserved for future per-milestone summary files if a milestone's
narrative is too large for the slimmed in-place ROADMAP/PROJECT. Currently
empty; v1.0–v1.24 narrative is fully preserved in the four snapshot
files above.

# Nova Pilot Consumer — Blockchain Stock Exchange
> **Milestone:** v1.26 — Live Pilot Estate Activation
> **Git:** https://git.cloudinit.dev/continuous-intelligence/nova-blockchain-exchange
> **Local clone:** /root/nova-blockchain-exchange
> **Role:** The first real consumer estate. A stock exchange built on a
> homegrown blockchain, offering equities trading (pilot scope). The
> consumer repo owns the app code + `contract.yaml`; the Nova platform
> (`acdl` repo) provides the deploy workflow, policy engine, and
> attestation gates.
---
## Vision / Core Value
A self-contained securities-trading exchange where every order, match,
and settlement is recorded as an immutable transaction on a homegrown
Proof-of-Authority (PoA) blockchain. The pilot demonstrates that Nova's
autonomous infrastructure can take a real consumer estate from contract
to production — apply, attest, record — without an operator in the loop
of normal operations.
## North Star Alignment
- **Strategic Objective #1** (production-grade zero-touch operations):
this estate is the first real consumer; the pilot activates the
autonomy claim beyond internal demos.
- **Strategic Objective #2** (provable trust): every apply decision +
attestation lands in the Decision Ledger; the settlement-finality
kyverno-json policy (IDEATE) makes trust a policy artifact.
- **Strategic Objective #3** (compounding ROI): unblocks the three
Post-Pilot targets (Touchless Resolution ≥99%, Human Escalation
<0.1%, AI Decision Accuracy ≥99.5%) — the denominators activate when
this estate runs.
## Domain Boundaries
- **This repo owns:** the blockchain (consensus, blocks, transactions),
the order-matching engine, the settlement service, the `contract.yaml`
that declares the infrastructure, and the consumer-side deploy workflow
invocation (`uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25`).
- **The platform (`acdl`) repo owns:** the deploy workflow, the policy
engine (kyverno-json), the contract resolver, the adapter, the
confidence signal, the HITL gates, and the Decision Ledger.
## Scope: v1.26 Pilot
- **Equities only** (bonds, derivatives, options deferred to future
milestones — different settlement models).
- **Minimal PoA ledger** — append-only blocks, single validator (pilot),
T+1 settlement finality = block commit. No multi-validator BFT.
- **Homegrown chain** — authored as part of this repo, not deployed on
Ethereum/Solana/Hyperledger.
## Anti-Goals (v1.26)
1. Not a general-purpose blockchain platform — purpose-built for
securities settlement in the pilot.
2. Not multi-validator consensus — single validator for the pilot.
3. Not bonds/derivatives/options — equities only this milestone.
4. Not a replacement for the Nova platform — this is a *consumer* of
Nova, not a fork.
## Key Decisions (v1.26 — established in SPECIFY, refined in CLARIFY)
| ID | Decision | Rationale | Affects |
|---|---|---|---|
| D-200 | Pilot scope = equities only | Bonds/derivatives/options have very different settlement models; equities (T+1) is the simplest to demonstrate the Nova platform's policy gates over a real estate. | Phase count; requirement scope. |
| D-201 | Homegrown PoA ledger (single validator) | Minimal viable chain for a pilot; settlement finality = block commit. Multi-validator BFT is a future milestone. | Blockchain core design. |
| D-202 | Consumer repo = `nova-blockchain-exchange` (Gitea) | New repo under `continuous-intelligence` org; tracked as 2nd CIAgent project. | Multi-project config. |
| D-203 | AWS account = 581513795199 (existing) | Reuse the bootstrapped account; state bucket + outbox table created in pre-run Workstream A3. | Env JSON binding. |
| D-204 | D-083 (S3 Object Lock/JWS) stays deferred | The SQLite hash-chain + DynamoDB outbox is the pilot's audit record. Tamper-evidence is a future milestone. | Audit ledger scope. |
| D-205 | Cold-only metrics sufficient (D-126) | No hot ops dashboard in the pilot; cold SQLite store + PowerBI export. | Metrics pipeline. |
## Constraints
- The consumer repo's deploy MUST go through `deploy.yml@v1.25` (the
reusable workflow) — no direct `terraform apply` bypassing the
platform's policy + attestation gates.
- The `contract.yaml` MUST validate against
`schemas/contract.schema.json`.
- The homegrown blockchain MUST be deterministic (same inputs → same
block) — it is automation, not AI (NORTH_STAR Objective #2 tenet).
## Context
- The Nova platform (`acdl` repo) completed v1.25 (kyverno-json Unified
Policy Engine). The swappable `PolicyEngine` adapter is in place.
- The AWS bootstrap (S3 state bucket + DynamoDB outbox) was re-run in
the pre-run (Workstream A3) — the platform components exist.
- The consumer repo was created on Gitea (Workstream A4) and cloned to
`/root/nova-blockchain-exchange`.

# nova-blockchain-exchange — Consumer Onboarding Guide
> **Milestone:** v1.26 — the first real Nova consumer estate. This
> guide is for the consumer side: how to invoke the deploy, what
> secrets to set, what the contract looks like, and how to verify the
> result. The platform side is documented in
> `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` §12.8; the live-pilot evidence is in
> `.ciagent/P4-PILOT-RUN-EVIDENCE.md`.
This is a **consumer** of the Nova platform, not a fork. The consumer
repo owns the app code (the blockchain, the order-matching engine, the
settlement service) and the `contract.yaml` that declares the
infrastructure. The Nova platform (`acdl` repo) owns the deploy
workflow, the policy engine, the contract resolver, the Terraform
adapter, the confidence signal, the HITL gates, and the Decision
Ledger. The consumer never clones the platform repo and never runs
`terraform apply` directly.
---
## 1. Invoke the deploy
The consumer's `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` (and its byte-identical
`.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml` mirror) is a `workflow_dispatch` workflow.
It does **not** use cross-repo `uses:` (SPEC §10 Q1 — the Gitea forge
rejects it). Instead it is an **inline adapter**: it checks out the
consumer repo, then checks out `acdl/acdl` @ `ref: v1.25` into
`platform/`, then runs `bash platform/scripts/run_platform.sh`.
To run a deploy:
1. In the consumer repo's Actions UI, pick the **Deploy** workflow.
2. Click **Run workflow**.
3. Inputs:
- `mode` = `full` (the default — applies the Terraform). Other
values: `plan-only` (no apply), `check-only` (policy + confidence
only), `decommission` (requires a `changeRequestId`).
- `environment` = `dev` (the pilot scope — equities only, dev only,
D-020/D-200). Leave empty to use the contract's `environment`
field.
4. The workflow runs the platform pipeline end-to-end: contract
resolve → adapter compile → terraform plan → policy (kyverno-json)
→ confidence signal → (dev: autonomous apply) → Decision Ledger
events.
For the pilot, the documented invocation is `mode=full,
environment=dev`. The first live run was `blkex-pilot-apply-v0.2`
(2026-08-19).
---
## 2. Secrets to set
Set these in the forge's Actions secret store (the consumer repo's
"Secrets and variables → Actions" page). The platform-managed
scheduled workflow `rotate-aws-key.yml` rotates the `NOVA_AWS_*` key
daily (SPEC §5.9 — the v0.2 deploy uses the currently-active key).
| Secret | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `NOVA_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` | The static AWS access key for the deploy IAM principal. Used by `aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials` when OIDC is unavailable (the Gitea path — no OIDC token is minted). |
| `NOVA_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` | The matching secret key. Rotated by `workflows-src/rotate-aws-key.yml`. |
| `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` | The target region (`us-east-1` for the pilot). |
The platform's `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` (GitHub Actions reference
impl) supports an OIDC path instead of the static key — set
`NOVA_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID` and leave the `NOVA_AWS_*` key secrets empty.
The Gitea inline adapter uses the static-key path.
---
## 3. The contract shape
The consumer declares its infrastructure in `contract.yaml` at the
repo root, validated against the platform's
`schemas/contract.schema.json`. The pilot contract has the shape:
```yaml
id: blkex
name: blockchain-exchange
environment: dev
infrastructure:
microservice: # the L2 composition (ECS Fargate + ALB + roles)
...
dynamodb: # the L1 DynamoDB table (the ledger)
...
s3: # the L1 S3 bucket (block storage)
...
```
Three `infrastructure.*` blocks: `microservice` (the L2 composition
that wires the ECS service, the ALB, and the IAM roles together), and
the two L1 primitives (`dynamodb` for the ledger, `s3` for block
storage). Per-environment variants live in
`contracts/blockchain-exchange.{dev,qa,prod}.yml` (the per-env
promotion model, REQ-105). The pilot runs the `dev` variant.
The contract is the **only** consumer-facing artifact that describes
infrastructure. It is IR-typed (engine-agnostic); the platform
resolves it to a target stack, the Terraform adapter compiles the
stack to HCL, and `terraform apply` runs in the central pipeline —
never on the consumer's workstation.
---
## 4. What the platform does
When `run_platform.sh` runs against `contract.yaml`:
1. **Resolve** the contract to a target stack (a list of L1 instances +
inputs + relationships), reading `modules/registry.json` for each
L1's `terraform_dir`.
2. **Compile** the stack to Terraform HCL via the stateless adapter
(`adapters/terraform/adapter.py`) — emits `module "<rid>" { source }
` blocks + wired `ref:` refs. No `TYPE_MAP` — each L1 owns its
shape.
3. **Plan** — `terraform plan` against the live AWS account. Infracost
runs on the plan JSON and emits `nova.cost.estimated`.
4. **Policy** — the kyverno-json engine evaluates the meta-policies
(`block-on-any-critical` + the pilot policies) and emits
`PolicyCheckResult` records.
5. **Confidence** — the confidence signal consumes the six inputs (the
PCRs included) and emits `nova.confidence.computed` with
`{ score, band, perInput, reasonCodes }`. Dev threshold = 0.50.
6. **Apply** (dev, autonomous — no HITL gate) — `terraform apply`
against account `581513795199`. On success, `nova.ai.decision.made`
+ `nova.run.completed` land in the Decision Ledger.
7. **Backfill** — the outcome (`pending → succeeded`) is backfilled
(REQ-317), producing `nova.outcome.backfilled`. The SQLite
hash-chain is extended, not torn up.
The consumer does not see steps 1–7 directly; the consumer sees the
workflow's green check + the uploaded artifacts (`nova-terraform`,
`nova-platform-log`).
---
## 5. How to verify post-deploy
Two independent verifications — read the AWS API and read the Decision
Ledger. Neither trusts the other.
**AWS API (the infrastructure landed):**
- `aws elbv2 describe-load-balancers` — the ALB
(`app-254671247.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com` for the pilot).
- `aws ecs describe-services --cluster nova-cluster --services
nova-microservice` — the ECS service is `ACTIVE`.
- `aws dynamodb describe-table --table-name nova-blkex-ledger-dev` —
the ledger table exists (PK `block_index`, PAY_PER_REQUEST).
- `aws s3api head-bucket --bucket
nova-blkex-blocks-dev-581513795199-us-east-1` — the block bucket
exists (versioning + SSE).
**Decision Ledger (the trust record):**
- The SQLite hash-chain at `metrics/decision_ledger.db` has the
`nova.ai.decision.made` row for `blkex-pilot-apply-v0.2` (chosen
action `pass`, `human_override` false) + the
`nova.outcome.backfilled` row (outcome `pending → succeeded`).
- The chain is valid (`prev_event_hash` links, 0 breaks). The
Trust Snapshot (`metrics/TRUST_SNAPSHOT.md`) records the verdict.
If the AWS API shows the resources AND the Decision Ledger shows the
decision + outcome with a valid chain, the deploy is verified. See
`.ciagent/P4-PILOT-RUN-EVIDENCE.md` for the full pilot-evidence
checklist (every ARN, the confidence JSON, the backfill timestamp).

# Requirements — nova-blockchain-exchange (v1.26 pilot)
> **Project:** nova-blockchain-exchange — blockchain stock exchange (pilot)
> **Milestone:** v1.26 — Live Pilot Estate Activation
> **Scope:** equities only; minimal PoA ledger; T+1 settlement finality.

## v1.26 — Live Pilot Estate Activation
### REQ-310 — Homegrown PoA blockchain core
The consumer repo implements a minimal Proof-of-Authority blockchain:
append-only blocks, single validator (pilot), SHA-256 block hash chain,
deterministic block production (same ordered transactions → same block).
The chain records every order, match, and settlement as transactions.
Settlement finality = block commit (a transaction is final when its
block is committed to the chain).
**Must-haves:**
- `chain/block.py` — Block dataclass (index, timestamp, prev_hash,
transactions, nonce, hash). `compute_hash()` deterministic.
- `chain/ledger.py` — Ledger class: `append_block()`, `verify_chain()`,
`get_block(index)`, `get_latest_block()`. Genesis block on init.
- `chain/validator.py` — PoA validator: single validator (config-driven,
pilot), `propose_block(transactions)` → Block, `commit_block(block)`.
- `tests/test_block.py`, `tests/test_ledger.py`, `tests/test_validator.py`
— chain integrity, hash determinism, genesis, append/verify.
### REQ-311 — Order-matching engine
A limit-order-book matching engine: buy/sell orders with price + size,
matched at the best price (price-time priority). Produces match
transactions recorded on the chain.
**Must-haves:**
- `engine/order_book.py` — OrderBook: `add_order(order)`,
`match_orders()` → list of Match (buyer, seller, price, size).
- `engine/order.py` — Order dataclass (id, side, symbol, price, size,
timestamp).
- `tests/test_order_book.py` — match priority, partial fills, no-match.
### REQ-312 — Settlement service
T+1 settlement: matches commit to the chain; a settlement is final when
its block is committed. The service reads matches from the order engine,
produces settlement transactions, and submits them to the ledger.
**Must-haves:**
- `settlement/service.py` — SettlementService: `settle(match)` →
SettlementTransaction, `submit(ledger)`. Idempotent (re-settling a
match is a no-op once final).
- `tests/test_settlement.py` — happy path, idempotency, finality check.
### REQ-313 — Consumer `contract.yaml` ✓ complete (P2, v1.25.2)
The consumer repo declares its infrastructure via a `contract.yaml` at
the repo root, validated against `schemas/contract.schema.json`. The
contract references the Nova platform's deploy workflow
(`uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25`) and declares the
blockchain exchange stack (the AWS resources the app needs: ECS for
the matching engine, DynamoDB for the ledger, S3 for block storage).
The DynamoDB L1 primitive (REQ-322) must land before this contract can
declare `dynamodb` — ECS + S3 already exist.
**Must-haves:**
- `contract.yaml` — id, name (`blockchain-exchange`), environment
(dev/qa/prod variants), infrastructure block.
- `contracts/blockchain-exchange.dev.yml`, `.qa.yml`, `.prod.yml` —
per-environment variants (per-env promotion model, REQ-105).
- `tests/test_contract_validates.py` — schema validation against the
platform's `schemas/contract.schema.json`.
### REQ-314 — Consumer deploy workflow invocation ✓ complete (P2, v1.25.2)
The consumer repo's GitHub/Gitea Actions invoke the Nova platform's
reusable `deploy.yml@v1.25` workflow with `mode: full` for the pilot.
The workflow checks out the consumer repo + the platform repo, runs
`scripts/run_platform.sh`, and records the apply decision + attestation
in the Nova Decision Ledger.
**Must-haves:**
- `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` — `uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.25`
with `with: { contract: contract.yaml, mode: full, environment: dev }`.
- `.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml` — byte-identical mirror (the platform's
deploy workflow is forge-agnostic).
- `tests/test_deploy_workflow_invocation.py` — asserts the `uses:` ref
+ inputs are correct.
### REQ-315 — Settlement-finality kyverno-json policy (IDEATE I6)
A kyverno-json policy asserting that every promotion (qa→prod) requires
settlement finality: all matches in the promotion window have committed
blocks. This is the securities-specific extension of v1.25's policy
engine — it applies Nova's compliance posture to the blockchain domain.
**Must-haves:**
- `policies/settlement-finality.json` — kyverno-json policy over the
settlement-service status JSON (asserts `all_committed: true`).
- `tests/test_settlement_finality_policy.py` — passing + failing
fixtures; skip when `kj` absent.
### REQ-316 — Pilot-estate regression capability (CAP-025)
A new capability in the regression gate: "pilot estate apply→attest→record
round-trip." The regression gate asserts that the consumer estate can
run end-to-end (contract resolve → adapter compile → terraform plan →
policy scan → confidence signal → attestation → outbox record) against
the live AWS account `581513795199`.
**Must-haves:**
- `core/regression_verify.py` gains CAP-025 (live-pilot-apply).
- `tests/test_regression_pilot.py` — the round-trip assertion.
### REQ-317 — Outcome-backfill emitter (IDEATE I1)
Wire `apply.completed` / `apply.failed` events back into `fact_decision`
in the cold store so the AI Decision Accuracy metric has a non-`pending`
outcome. Today `fact_decision.outcome` is stuck at `pending` (D-096
blocker). The backfill emitter reads `run_manifest.completed/failed`
events and updates the corresponding decision's outcome.
**Must-haves:**
- `core/metrics/outcome_backfill.py` — `backfill(decision_id, outcome)`
updates `fact_decision.outcome` + `fact_decision.backfilled_at`.
- `core/metrics/collector.py` — invokes backfill after run completion.
- `tests/test_outcome_backfill.py`.
### REQ-318 — `reason='confidence'` escalation tag (IDEATE I2)
Emit a distinct `reason='confidence'` field on the `block` band's
`ai.decision.made` event so the Human Escalation Frequency metric has a
discriminated numerator. Today `hitl_block` is a boolean from the
manifest; the `reason` discriminator is not stored.
**Must-haves:**
- `core/confidence_signal.py` — `ai.decision.made` gains
`escalation_reason: 'confidence'` when `band == 'block'`.
- `core/metrics/collector.py` — persists `escalation_reason` into
`fact_run`.
- `tests/test_confidence_escalation_reason.py`.
### REQ-319 — Env-JSON `state_backend` wiring reconciliation (IDEATE I3)
The env JSON's `state_backend.bucket` field is currently unused by the
adapter (the adapter computes `nova-tfstate-<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>` directly).
Reconcile: the adapter reads `state_backend.bucket` from the env JSON
(falling back to the computed name for backwards compat). This closes
the wiring gap so the pilot's env JSON is the single source of truth.
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/terraform/adapter.py` — reads `env.state_backend.bucket`
when present.
- `tests/test_adapter_state_backend.py`.
- `core/environments/*.json` — `state_backend.bucket` updated to the
real bucket name `nova-tfstate-581513795199-us-east-1`.
### REQ-320 — Declarative pilot-readiness kyverno-json policy (IDEATE I5)
A kyverno-json policy asserting the env JSON has a non-placeholder
`account_id` (not `000000000000`) before any `terraform apply`. This is
the declarative gate that prevents a pilot run against a placeholder
account.
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/kyverno-json/policies/pilot-readiness/no-placeholder-account.json`
- `tests/test_pilot_readiness_policy.py`.
### REQ-321 — Docs + adapter README for the consumer estate
Update `adapters/README.md` (new consumer row), `docs/METRICS.md` (the
3 Post-Pilot metrics now grounded post-pilot), `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md`
(§12.8 — Pilot Estate), and `.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/README.md`
(consumer onboarding guide).
**Must-haves:**
- `adapters/README.md` — consumer-repo row.
- `docs/METRICS.md` — Post-Pilot metrics grounded note.
- `.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` — §12.8 Pilot Estate.
- `.ciagent/nova-blockchain-exchange/README.md` — onboarding guide.
### REQ-322 — DynamoDB L1 primitive (platform-side) ✓ complete (P2, v1.25.2)
The blockchain exchange's ledger table needs a DynamoDB L1 primitive.
Research (RESEARCH §3) confirmed the adapter is stateless/registry-
driven (no `TYPE_MAP` — deleted in v1.11); a new stack type requires a
new L1 module, not an adapter change. The `dynamodb` primitive mirrors
the existing `s3` / `rds` primitives: `interface.json` (stack type
`aws:dynamodb:table`, inputs `table_name`/`region`/`pk`/`sk`/`billing_mode`,
outputs `table_arn`/`table_name`), `terraform/main.tf`
(`resource "aws_dynamodb_table" "this"`), `README.md`, `instance.json`,
+ a `registry.json` entry. The pilot contract's `infrastructure.dynamodb`
block references this primitive. This is the single platform-side
module build-out for the milestone (ECS + S3 already exist).
**Must-haves:**
- `modules/l1/dynamodb/interface.json` — stack type
`aws:dynamodb:table`, inputs, outputs.
- `modules/l1/dynamodb/terraform/main.tf` —
`resource "aws_dynamodb_table" "this"` (PK + optional SK,
`billing_mode = PAY_PER_REQUEST` default, encryption + point-in-time-
recovery enabled per v1.8 NFR defaults).
- `modules/l1/dynamodb/README.md` — module doc.
- `modules/l1/dynamodb/instance.json` — sample instance.
- `modules/registry.json` — `dynamodb` entry (kind `l1`,
`terraform_dir: modules/l1/dynamodb/terraform`).
- `tests/test_adapter.py` — add `dynamodb` to `EXPECTED_L1_KEYS` +
a resolution + emission test.
- `modules/README.md` — catalog index updated.
### Summary
13 requirements (REQ-310..322). Equities-only pilot; minimal PoA ledger;
T+1 settlement; consumer deploy via `deploy.yml@v1.25`; 3 Post-Pilot
metrics grounded (outcome backfill + escalation reason + pilot runs);
3 kyverno-json policies extending v1.25 (settlement-finality,
pilot-readiness, + the existing meta-policies apply); env-JSON wiring
reconciled; DynamoDB L1 primitive authored (the single platform-side
module build-out — the adapter is stateless/registry-driven, so the
primitive is a new `modules/l1/dynamodb/` module + registry entry, not
an adapter change).

# Roadmap — nova-blockchain-exchange (v1.26 pilot)
> **Project:** nova-blockchain-exchange — blockchain stock exchange (pilot)
> **Milestone:** v1.26 — Live Pilot Estate Activation
---
## v1.26 — Live Pilot Estate Activation (active)
Lift D-096 (live AWS re-provisioning); activate the first real consumer
estate (a stock exchange on a homegrown PoA blockchain, equities only)
against live AWS account `581513795199`; ground the three Post-Pilot
targets in NORTH_STAR.md (Touchless Resolution ≥99%, Human Escalation
<0.1%, AI Decision Accuracy ≥99.5%). The platform repo (`acdl`) provides
the deploy workflow, policy engine, and attestation gates; this repo
provides the app (blockchain + matching engine + settlement) + the
`contract.yaml`.
Tags run on the **v1.25.x** patch line: `v1.25.0` (P0) → `v1.25.N`
(final phase = milestone release).
### Phase P1 — blockchain-core (planned, tag v1.25.1)
- REQ-310: Homegrown PoA blockchain core (block, ledger, validator).
- REQ-311: Order-matching engine (limit order book, price-time priority).
- REQ-312: Settlement service (T+1, idempotent, finality = block commit).
### Phase P2 — consumer-contract-and-deploy (complete, tag v1.25.2)
- REQ-313: Consumer `contract.yaml` + per-env variants. ✓
- REQ-314: Consumer deploy workflow invocation (`deploy.yml@v1.25`). ✓
- REQ-322: DynamoDB L1 primitive (platform-side, P2 W0). ✓
### Phase P3 — pilot-metrics-and-policies (planned, tag v1.25.3)
- REQ-315: Settlement-finality kyverno-json policy.
- REQ-316: Pilot-estate regression capability (CAP-025).
- REQ-317: Outcome-backfill emitter.
- REQ-318: `reason='confidence'` escalation tag.
- REQ-319: Env-JSON `state_backend` wiring reconciliation.
- REQ-320: Declarative pilot-readiness kyverno-json policy.
### Phase P4 — pilot-run-and-docs (planned, tag v1.25.4)
- REQ-321: Docs + adapter README + onboarding guide.
- Live pilot end-to-end run (apply → attest → record) against
`581513795199`.
### Phase P5 — final review + audit + milestone ship (Final Phase, tag v1.25.5)
- Multi-persona code review across P1..P4.
- Audit: reconstruction test, branch hygiene, commit discipline.
- Milestone ship: merge `phase/05` → `milestone/v1.26-pilot-activation`
→ `main`; tag `v1.25.5` (= the v1.26 release per prev-minor tagging
rule); create Gitea release with full milestone summary; delete all
milestone branches.
- Update `REQUIREMENTS.md` (mark REQ-310..321 complete), `ROADMAP.md`
(mark v1.26 complete), `NORTH_STAR.md` (note Strategic Objectives #1
+ #3 — first real consumer estate; Post-Pilot denominators activated).
After v1.26: future milestones may add bonds/derivatives/options
(different settlement models), multi-validator BFT consensus, and
tamper-evident ledger (D-083 lift).

# itself, which is the bootstrap-exception documented in §5.9.

## How to Write an Adapter
### Terraform Adapter Extension
### Terraform Adapter Extension (stateless assembler — v1.11 rewrite)
1. Add a stack type → Terraform type mapping to `TYPE_MAP`.
2. Add non-identity input mappings to `INPUT_MAP`.
3. Add non-identity output mappings to `OUTPUT_MAP`.
4. Add a specialized `_emit_resource` branch if the resource needs nested blocks (e.g. inline policies, rule sets).
> The adapter owns **no module content**. There is no `TYPE_MAP`, no
> `INPUT_MAP`, no `OUTPUT_MAP`, and no per-type branch logic (all deleted
> in the v1.11 rewrite — the 918-line monolith collapsed to a ~80-line
> assembler). Engine-specific shape lives in each L1 module's own
> `terraform/` dir (`versions.tf`/`variables.tf`/`locals.tf`/`main.tf`/
> `outputs.tf`); the adapter only assembles them.
To extend the Terraform adapter, **do not edit the adapter** — instead:
1. Add an L1 module with a real `terraform/` dir (owning its resource
shape, nested HCL blocks, and defaults).
2. Register it in `modules/registry.json` under the module name with its
`terraform_dir` path. The adapter reads `registry.json` to find each
module's directory.
3. The adapter emits `module "<rid>" { source = "<path>" }` blocks at
the root, with resolved inputs + wired `ref:` refs between modules.
No type-specific translation lives in the adapter.
> If you find yourself reaching for a "TYPE_MAP"-style constant, the L1
> module is missing a piece — fix the module, not the adapter.

## Consumers
The Terraform adapter compiles contract IR for consumer estates. The
first real consumer estate is now live:
| Consumer | Version | Environment | Account | Forge / Adapter | Status |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `nova-blockchain-exchange` | v0.2 | dev | `581513795199` | inline adapter (see note below) | **live** (pilot apply `blkex-pilot-apply-v0.2`, 2026-08-19) |
### Forge adapter note (SPEC §10 Q1)
Forge Actions (the consumer's forge runtime) does **not** support
cross-repo `uses:` references — the forge rejects
`uses: <owner>/<repo>/.github/workflows/<file>@<ref>` with
`expected format {owner}/{repo}/.{git_platform}/workflows/{filename}@{ref}`.
The consumer (`nova-blockchain-exchange`) therefore uses an **inline
adapter** in its `deploy.yml`: the workflow does `actions/checkout@v4`
on the consumer, then `actions/checkout@v4` `acdl/acdl` @ `ref: v1.25`
into `platform/`, and runs `bash platform/scripts/run_platform.sh ...`
directly — no `uses:` indirection.
The platform's own `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` (this repo) stays as
the **GitHub Actions reference implementation** — the reusable
`workflow_call` workflow used by GitHub-hosted consumers. The two
files share the same contract shape; the only declared difference is
the forge/runtime, not the stages or commands. See
`.ciagent/ARCHITECTURE.md` §12.8 for the live pilot-estate wiring.

Defensive parsing: any kyverno-json output that doesn't match the
expected shape produces an ``error`` PCR, never an exception. The
engine is read-only against a local policy dir + a temp payload file.
v1.26 P3 W0.5 fix — three substrate bugs uncovered once ``kj`` was
actually installed (the v1.25 test suite ``pytest.skip``-masked them):
1. **``.json`` policy files are not loaded by ``kj`` v0.0.3.** The
upstream policy loader (``pkg/policy/load.go``) uses
``fileinfo.IsYaml()`` which only matches ``.yaml``/``.yml``
extensions — ``.json`` files are silently skipped, yielding
``evaluating N resources against 0 policies``. Nova policies are
authored as ``.json`` (the ``TestPolicyFilesExist`` tests assert the
``.json`` filenames). Fix: ``evaluate()`` materializes a temp policy
dir that mirrors the source tree with every ``.json`` policy copied
to a ``.yaml`` twin (JSON is a valid YAML subset — verified against
``kj`` v0.0.3). The source ``.json`` files remain untouched.
2. **Bare-list output format.** ``kj scan --output json`` emits a bare
JSON list at the top level (NOT ``{"results": [...]}``). Each entry
has ``resource`` (the evaluated payload) + ``results`` (list of
per-policy result objects, each carrying ``policy.metadata.name``,
``rules[]`` with ``rule.name``, ``violations[]`` (present on fail),
``error`` (string, present on policy-evaluation error)). The v1.25
``_translate`` did ``out.get("results", [])`` on a dict — but
``out`` is a list → returned ``[]`` → emitted a single
``KJ_NO_RESULTS`` pass PCR. **This is why all failing fixtures showed
0 fails.** Fix: ``_translate`` handles list (v0.0.3) and dict
(future-proof) shapes.
3. **``validate`` wrapper + check syntax.** Documented in the policy
files themselves (see the W0.5 policy edits). The engine itself does
not enforce policy shape — it only translates ``kj`` output — so
this fix lives in the policy ``.json`` files.

which are emitted *before* the run executes the apply). Once the run
completes (`nova.run.completed`, exit 0) or fails (`nova.run.failed`,
exit non-zero), the outcome must be transitioned `pending ->
succeeded`/`failed` so the Post-Pilot AI Decision Accuracy denominator is
grounded (an outcome that is stuck `pending` cannot be scored).
Architecture (grounded in what the ledger + collector actually do):
* The Decision Ledger (`core/metrics/decision_ledger.py`) is an
**append-only hash-chain** of CloudEvents envelopes — there is no
`fact_decision` table *inside* the ledger DB; facts live in the
separate collector cold store (`core/metrics/collector.py`,
`nova_metrics.db`). The ledger is never UPDATEd in place (that would
break the SHA-256 chain — see `verify_chain()`).
* Therefore the backfill does TWO things:
1. Appends a new audit event `nova.outcome.backfilled` to the
ledger (preserves the hash chain; auditable via `replay_run`).
2. UPDATEs the `fact_decision` row in the cold store (the row is
keyed by `decision_id`; `outcome` + `backfilled_at` are
mutable — they are facts, not chain events).
Idempotent + terminal:
* If `outcome` is already `succeeded`/`failed` (i.e. not `pending`),
the call is a no-op and returns `{"status": "already_backfilled",
"existing_outcome": <current>}`. A terminal outcome is NEVER
overwritten (defense against double-backfill and against flipping a
`succeeded` run to `failed` retroactively or vice versa).
* The same `outcome` value is re-asserted harmlessly (still a no-op).
REQ-317: `outcome` ∈ {"succeeded", "failed"} only — `pending` is the
initial state and may not be written by the backfill (it would undo the
transition). An invalid value raises `ValueError`.
Future milestones may add `'policy'` to `escalation_reason` (REQ-318);
this module is scoped to outcome only.

# DynamoDB L1 Primitive
> Stack type: `aws:dynamodb:table` → Terraform `aws_dynamodb_table`
## Description
A DynamoDB table primitive with encryption + point-in-time recovery
enabled by default (per v1.8 NFR defaults). Supports a partition key
(required) + optional sort key. Default billing mode is
`PAY_PER_REQUEST` (on-demand).
## Inputs
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `table_name` | string | yes | — | Globally-unique table name |
| `region` | string | yes | — | AWS region |
| `pk` | string | yes | — | Partition key attribute name |
| `sk` | string | no | `""` | Sort key attribute name |
| `billing_mode` | string | no | `PAY_PER_REQUEST` | Billing mode |
| `enabled` | boolean | no | `true` | Feature flag |
## Outputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `table_arn` | arn | The table ARN |
| `table_name` | string | The table name |
## NFRs
- **Encryption:** SSE-KMS enabled by default.
- **Point-in-time recovery:** Enabled by default.
- **Deletion protection:** `prevent_destroy = true` (Terraform lifecycle).
## Examples
See `examples/simple.yaml`.

The platform-managed scheduled pipeline rotates the NOVA_AWS_* static key

deploy uses the currently-active key. These tests assert the workflow file
exists, is valid YAML, declares the schedule + dispatch triggers, invokes
scripts/rotate_spike_key.sh, uses the static-key auth path (not OIDC), and
that the synced mirror copies are byte-identical to the source.
This test file is itself synced to the consumer mirror, so it must be
