Re-synthesized both Marp decks from the v1.12-synced source markdown:
- Both decks now 10 main + 7 appendix = 17 slides (was 10 + 6 = 16).
- New A6 'Operating Model & Cost': real COST.md figures table (/usr/bin/bash.001883/
8d, ~/usr/bin/bash.007/mo, S3-dominated), zero-cost steady state, D-096 teardown,
+ pre-mortem reference (PRE_MORTEM.md 4 failure modes), + plan-only
default bullet (ACDL_LIFECYCLE_MODE=full override, REQ-134).
- New A7 'Verified by Construction': stateless adapter (918->~80 lines,
per-module terraform/ dirs, P67 dedup fix) + pipeline-driven lifecycle
testing (green cell = verification, plan-only default, 22/22 Verified).
- 'Testing vs. Planned' (PW slide 11 + A4): '11 capabilities' -> '22/22
Verified via lifecycle pipeline + regression gate'; the
'deploy-unverified (IAM drift)' Verification Coverage line removed
and replaced with the honest 'v1.10 status is closed' disclosure.
- Version refs @v1.10 -> @v1.11 across both decks.
- YAML frontmatter (S&P Global Energy theme), badge system, image refs,
story-beat intros preserved verbatim.
Re-distilled both talking-points files to match (added the previously-
missing A6 + A7 sections; updated all content to 22/22 Verified).
Re-rendered both HTML (committed). Exported both PPTX (held in
/tmp/v1.12-release/ for the v1.12.0 Gitea release upload).
Verification: stale claims in HTML = 2 disclosure lines in PW (the 'v1.10
status is closed' framing), 0 in DX. @v1.10 = 0 across all artifacts.
A6/A7 + cost figures present in both HTML decks. README slide counts
updated (10+7=17).
PROJECT.md gains a 'Capability Status (Re-Verified 2026-07-27)' section
after Domain Boundaries: decay disclosure, the 16 auto-verified
capabilities table, the 6 IAM-gated escalated resources, and the
regression-gate note. ROADMAP.md v1.9.8 entry annotated 'Last
deck-polish phase before the v1.10 deck-freeze'; new v1.10 overview
entry noting v1.9.1-v1.9.8 are 'superseded-by-reverification'. Both
leadership decks disclose the 2026-07-27 re-verification in their
maturity-framing headers, citing .ciagent/CAPABILITY_INVENTORY.md as
the source of truth.
No 'shipped'/'Available today' claims remain that aren't backed by a
Verified capability or an explicit escalation note. The 6 IAM-gated
cloud resources (contracts table, Lambda, ECS service, CloudFront
stack, uptime-kuma, OIDC role) are explicitly listed as escalated,
not silently omitted.
Decks unfrozen. v1.10.0 ready to tag.

Major rework of both presentation decks based on leadership feedback.
Addresses: story arc, concept clarity, scope clarification, more visuals,
appendix for detail-heavy slides, and a complete Road to the North Star.
6 new mermaid diagrams:
- platform-works-03-scope-boundary (Upstream → Contract → ACDL → AWS)
- developer-experience-01b-scope-boundary (both consumer paths + scope)
- platform-works-04-confidence-signal (6 inputs → score → gate → decision)
- platform-works-05-attestation-flow (deploy → gate → approver → evidence)
- developer-experience-04-promotion-journey (dev → qa → prod → dr)
- road-to-north-star (v1.0 demo → v1.9 → v1.10 → v2.0 → North Star)
Both Marp decks restructured to 10 main + 6 appendix slides:
PW deck (17 slides):
1. Title
2. The Problem & The North Star (anti-goals moved to slide 3)
3. Where ACDL Sits in Your World (NEW — scope boundary, infra only)
4. The Contract-Driven Model (image: removed, infra inputs instead)
5. The End-to-End Flow
6. Zero-Trust by Default
7. Safety is Computed (NEW confidence signal diagram)
8. Security by Construction
9. Accountability & Audit (NEW attestation flow diagram, QA clarification,
badge reclassification: dev=Testing, qa/prod/dr=Planned)
10. Testing vs. Planned (summary, full inventory in appendix)
11. The Vision Realized
+ Appendix: TOC, Platform-Managed Environments, Observability, Road to
North Star, Full Inventory, Glossary
DX deck (16 slides):
1. Title
2. Where ACDL Sits in Your World (REPLACES Two Consumer Surfaces — scope
boundary with both consumer paths)
3. The Contract — The Entire Consumer Surface (image: removed)
4. The Developer Feedback Loop
5. Versioned, Predictable Releases
6. Friendly Onboarding
7. Safe Promotion Path (NEW promotion journey diagram, rising bar
annotated: dev=Testing, qa/prod/dr=Planned)
8. Safe Decommission
9. Self-Service Module Catalog
10. The Desired Outcomes
+ Appendix: TOC, Citizen Developer Experience, No Platform Code, Local
Reproducibility, Road to North Star, Glossary
Story arc: every slide has an italic 'Story beat' line connecting it to
the narrative progression.
Scope clarification: ACDL is infrastructure only. Upstream is anything
(IDE, agentic SDLC, citizen dev vibe coding). ACDL provisions and governs
AWS resources; application deployment is upstream. Contract examples now
show infrastructure inputs (cpu, memory, desired_count, port) not image:.
QA attestation reclassification: 'Design tested' → 'Planned'. QA attests
to infrastructure readiness (contract + Terraform plan + evidence), not
application code. Dev is autonomous (Testing); qa/prod/dr are Planned.
Road to the North Star: phased timeline (v1.0 → v1.9 → v1.10 → v2.0 →
North Star), annotated 'proposed phasing, not formally planned.'
Also: scripts/sync_to_gl.sh added (GitLab mirror sync utility).

Create two talking points markdown files — one per deck — distilling the
source of truth (speaker notes + content) into presenter-ready cues indexed
by the Marp deck's 10-slide structure.
Each file has:
- One section per Marp slide (## Slide N — Title), matching the Marp deck
- 3-6 talking point bullets per slide — punchy, actionable cues distilled
from the source markdown's speaker notes
- A key takeaway per slide — the one memorable thing the audience should
walk away with
The talking points are the middle layer between the source of truth (full
detail + speaker notes) and the Marp deck (what the audience sees). They
give the presenter a cue sheet for delivery without repeating either layer.
README updated:
- 3-step → 4-step process (added Step 4: talking points)
- Process diagram updated with the 4th step
- Directory layout updated with the two new files
- 'Adding a new presentation' checklist updated with step 6 (distill talking
points)
- Current decks table updated with a talking points column

9 requirements implemented across presentation decks and project docs:
1. DX closing slide: added 'Infrastructure as a utility, not a craft' bullet
to convey the full vision (infrastructure consumed, not maintained;
platform compounds value over time).
2. PW Problem slide: 'moving a merged change' → 'promoting a change'.
3. PW Problem slide: added 'Red tape' and 'Scalability without increasing
headcount' bullets (4 frictions, not 2).
4. PW Roadmap slide: redesigned with side-by-side HTML table layout
(Testing | Planned), 16px font, no overflow.
5. PW deck: added new slide 'What This Platform Is — and Isn't' after North
Star (sovereign boundary, infrastructure as utility, 4 anti-goals).
PW deck now 16 slides (was 15).
6. Maturity nomenclature: 'Available today'/'shipped' → 'Testing' across
both decks + source markdown. New .testing badge (blue/teal #DBEAFE).
Roadmap title: 'Testing vs. Planned'. The platform has 0 consumer
adoption — 'shipped' was inaccurate.
7. Global: 'substrate' → 'engine' across entire project (88 matches, 30+
files including .ciagent/, docs/, modules/, adapters/, schemas/, code).
8. Presentation files only: 'forge' → 'VCS' / 'version control system'
(6 occurrences in 4 files). 'forge' retained in all technical docs and
code as the industry-standard term.
9. New .agentic badge (purple/violet #EDE9FE) appended to agentic features
in both decks: confidence signal, autonomous dev, pattern recognition,
dynamic module creation, citizen developer surface, auto-promotion.
Also: Change Request ID format changed from 'CR-2026-001' to 'CHG0678912'
across presentation files, consumer guide, and test fixtures.
HTML re-rendered. PPTX rendered for release upload.

Presentation changes (both Marp decks + source markdown):
1. Title slide: deck title as H1 (slightly bigger), 'Agentic Cloud Delivery
Platform' as H3 subtitle — cleaner title hierarchy
2. DX deck: removed Local Reproducibility slide (not beneficial for DX)
3. DX deck: Safe Promotion Path slide redesigned with side-by-side layout
for Approaches A and B (HTML table, two columns)
4. DX deck: 'an agent' → 'an AI agent' (slide 2 + Citizen Developer slide)
5. DX deck: What a Developer Does — diagram floated to the right side
6. Header simplified to just the deck name (subtitle now on title slide)
HIPAA removal (25 files):
- Completely removed all HIPAA references from all markdown documentation,
presentation source files, module READMEs, and rendered HTML
- Removed HIPAA from compliance milestone lists (GDPR, SOX, SOC2, DORA remain)
- Removed HIPAA section references (§164.xxx) from compliance annotations
- Cleaned up empty parentheses and broken commas left by removal
- Re-rendered both HTML decks from updated Marp source

Commit self-contained HTML renderings of both Marp presentation decks to
docs/presentations/ so they are viewable in any browser and on the git
forge. The HTML files embed all images as base64 data URIs and render
the full S&P Global Energy brand theme (#D6002A red-core, #1B1B1B grey-90,
Akkurat Pro font).
Updated the README to document the 3-step process with HTML as a
committed artifact (re-render when Marp source changes) and PPTX as a
Gitea release attachment (binary, not committed to git).
PPTX files are rendered and uploaded to the Gitea release as downloadable
attachments for stakeholders.

Add two leadership-facing presentation decks for senior leadership
(CTO, Head of Cloud, Head of Infrastructure, Head of DevOps):
1. How the Platform Works — 14 slides covering the contract-driven model,
zero-trust, computed safety, policy enforcement, secure-by-default,
immutable audit, HITL, observability, platform-managed environments,
portability, and an honest shipped-vs-planned roadmap.
2. The Developer Experience — 14 slides covering two consumer surfaces,
the 5-line contract, no platform code, versioned releases, instant
feedback, deploy outputs, local reproducibility, friendly onboarding,
safe promotion (one contract + per-env CI jobs), safe decommission,
self-service module catalog, and the leadership outcome.
Each deck has two forms:
- Full markdown (source of truth) with speaker notes + mermaid code blocks
- Marp deck (lean, no speaker notes, embedded PNG diagrams) for presentation
Includes a README documenting the 3-step slide creation process:
(full markdown → Marp synthesis → PPTX export) with conventions, build
commands, and maturity framing rules.
