Jon Chery ac18c98385 feat(P1): kyverno-json engine core + PolicyEngine protocol (REQ-291..294, 308, 309)
core/policy_engine.py: PolicyEngine Protocol (PEP 544, runtime_checkable)
+ PolicyEngineRegistry (selects from config.json.policy.engine) + NullEngine
fallback (NULL_ENGINE_INACTIVE when policy key absent).

adapters/kyverno-json/: KyvernoJsonEngine — shells to , translates
native output → list[dict] PCR records (engine: "kyverno", ruleId KJ_ prefix,
severity via nova.cloudinit.dev/severity annotation, default info).
is_configured() guards on  → KJ_ENGINE_NOT_CONFIGURED SKIPPED PCR
(distinct from NullEngine). Defensive parsing (malformed → error PCR).

config.json: new  object {engine: kyverno-json, policy_root}.

scripts/install-kyverno-json.sh: go install kj@latest (D-115).
CI (.gitea + .github): install Go + kj for policy-engine tests (best-effort;
tests skip when kj absent).

tests: 24 pass, 2 skip (kj not installed). 132 existing tests unchanged.
NullEngine satisfies PolicyEngine Protocol (G-Q8a — proves swap boundary).

Jon Chery 36c8ae9a80 docs(P00): grill — PROCEED (0.86), 0 escalations, 2 revisions
10 challenges red-teamed across feasibility, scope, budget, swap boundary.
8 PROCEED (deterministic-not-AI, swap boundary is the moat, MTTR <1s,
policy count manageable, tagging cross-check worth it, PCR list is valid
payload, phase count matches cadence, severity annotation K8s-standard).
2 REVISE (NullEngine vs kj-not-configured distinct ruleIds; protocol
conformance test via NullEngine). All revisions are PLAN/REQ clarifications
— no requirement changes.

Jon Chery ec53302014 docs(P00): create phase plans — v1.25 (4 phases, 4 waves)
PLAN.md: 4 execution phases (P1 engine-core, P2 contract+stack-IR policies,
P3 plan-JSON+meta+pipeline wiring, P4 regression-gate+docs) + P5 final
review/ship. Wave ordering with parallelization (3-2-2-3 concurrent personas).
Each phase is a vertical slice (end-to-end: policies + Python wiring + tests +
docs). Tags v1.24.0..v1.24.5. 19 requirements (REQ-291..309) mapped to phases
and personas.

Jon Chery f753353ad4 docs(P00): research findings — v1.25 kyverno-json engine surface, 4 policy targets, PolicyEngine swap boundary
RESEARCH.md: kyverno-json CLI (kj scan), ValidatingPolicy structure,
assertion trees + ~ modifier + JMESPath, output shape, severity-via-
annotation convention, 4 policy targets (contract/stack-IR/plan-JSON/
meta), PolicyEngine protocol + OPA-equivalent swap surface, latency
<1s (parallel with checkov), deterministic-not-AI tenet, ECS catalog
prior art, 5 logged assumptions (A1..A5).

PERSONAS.md: 4 active personas (lead-developer, backend-engineer,
new policy-engineer, data-engineer); frontend-engineer deactivated.
policy-engineer owns kyverno-json policies + engine translation +
STANDARDS.md policy-authoring section.

ARCHITECTURE.md §12.7: Policy Engine Registry — protocol, registry,
NullEngine fallback, engine enum reuse (D-116), defense-in-depth
critical-override (D-119), graceful degradation (D-120).

A1 install path → go install (D-115)
A2 engine enum → reuse kyverno, distinguish by ruleId KJ_ prefix (D-116)
A3 checkov/wiz signatures unchanged; meta-policies consume merged PCR list (D-117)
A4 NOVA_TAG_NAMING kept + kyverno-json mirror + tagging-rules-agree meta-policy (D-118)
A5 critical-override kept as defense-in-depth behind declarative meta-policy (D-119)

Jon Chery 5a75075616 docs(init): validate specification — v1.25 kyverno-json unified policy engine
Establishes the v1.25 milestone: kyverno-json becomes Nova's primary
compliance/policy tool, implemented behind a swappable PolicyEngine
adapter (so OPA can replace it one day). Unified-orchestrator model —
checkov/wiz remain as raw-finding adapters feeding into kyverno-json
meta-policies. Policies cover all 4 Nova artifacts: contract JSON,
resolved Stack IR, terraform plan JSON, and the merged PCR list itself.
Quality improvement from IDEATE: capability regression checks become
declarative kyverno-json policies. New policy-engineer persona.

19 requirements (REQ-291..309), 6 phases (P0 + P1..P4 + P5 final).
Tags on v1.24.x line: v1.24.0 (P0) → v1.24.5 (P5 = milestone release).

Jon Chery b8fbd995a9 docs(P00): grill — 4 revisions applied (PROCEED-WITH-REVISIONS, 0.78)
Nova Slides Render / render (push) Failing after 57s
10 axes reviewed. 6 PASS, 4 REVISE. Overall: PROCEED-WITH-REVISIONS.
Empirically cleared (not assumed): image format (plain <img src>, conf
0.95) + Marp <div> passthrough (rendered test, conf 0.95). Versioning
clean (no v1.22.* tags, conf 1.0). Test inversion risk fully enumerated
(conf 0.9).

Revisions (binding):
G-001 (0.85): purge 'penetrate' repo-wide (docs/ + .ciagent/), not just
  docs/presentations/. RESEARCH.md/PLAN.md/GRILL.md exempt as decision-
  history. P4 verify becomes grep -ri penetrat docs/ .ciagent/PROJECT.md
  .ciagent/CLARIFY.md -> nothing.
G-002 (0.85): serialize P3->P4 (not parallel). P4's parser depends on
  P3's stable render_slides.sh; P4's trimmed deck is what P3b's parser
  consumes. C8 parallelization overruled.
G-003 (0.80): split P3 into P3a (inline_images.py + render_slides.sh +
  pyproject — low-risk) + P3b (render_pptx.py + parser +
  attach_release_asset.py — high-risk, isolated). Both serial in Wave 3.
G-004 (0.80): merge P5+P6. NFR docs milestone; dedicated review/ship
  phase is ceremonial. P5 absorbs review/audit/ship. Net phases 7->6.

Revised phase/tag plan:
v1.22.0 P0 -> v1.22.1 P1 -> v1.22.2 P2 -> v1.22.3 P3a -> v1.22.4 P3b
-> v1.22.5 P4 -> v1.22.6 P5 (final = milestone release).

Jon Chery ea44fdb9d6 docs(P00): grill v1.23 — PROCEED-WITH-REVISIONS (4 binding revisions)
Adversarial red-team review of the v1.23 Nova Deck Cleanup & Python PPTX
plan (7 phases, 5 waves). Overall verdict: PROCEED-WITH-REVISIONS (conf 0.78).

Empirically verified (P0 risks cleared):
- Image format: rendered HTML uses plain <img src="assets/png/...">, no
  xlink:href → inline_images.py regex will match (Axis 4 PASS, conf 0.95)
- Marp <div> passthrough: minimal test deck through marp-cli@4.5.0 confirms
  <div class="benefit"> passes through verbatim (Axis 6 PASS, conf 0.95)
- Versioning: no v1.22.* tags exist (Axis 10 PASS, conf 0.95)
- Test inversion list complete (Axis 3 PASS, conf 0.92)

4 binding revisions:
- G-001: Purge "penetrate" from entire repo (docs/ + .ciagent/), not just
  docs/presentations/ — term appears in docs/scope.md:16, docs/vision.md:18,
  and all .ciagent/*.md
- G-002: Serialize P3→P4 — "zero file overlap" is false for verification
  (P3 parser depends on deck P4 trims; P4 verify render depends on P3's
  render_slides.sh being stable)
- G-003: Split P3 into P3a (inline_images + render_slides.sh + pyproject —
  low-risk) and P3b (render_pptx.py + parser — high-risk, 10+ markdown
  constructs + python-pptx XML constraints)
- G-004: Merge P5+P6 — P6 is ceremonial overhead for an NFR docs milestone;
  P5 absorbs review/audit/ship. Net phases: 7 (P1, P2, P3a, P3b, P4, P5+P6)

No escalations (all axes resolved at conf >= 0.78).

- CI/tests/README: workflows install python-pptx, tests updated,
  README rewritten (REQ-273,274,275)

Driven by user feedback: deck looked 'out of whack'; wanted to return to
the clean style of the old the-developer-experience.html. Investigation
revealed the 'clean' reference was itself MARP output (default theme +
inline style); the standalone nova-sp-theme.css approach was fragile.

Jon Chery 25ddc894c2 docs(milestone): complete v1.22 — Nova Deck Layout Fix
9 requirements complete (REQ-254..262):
- P1: theme-css — section padding + overflow + image rules + title
  chrome + spacing tightening (REQ-254,255,256)
- P2: render-scripts — delete render_deck.sh, pin CLI versions, 2x
  scale + transparent bg (REQ-257,258)
- P3: mermaid-relayout — telemetry TB + platform-pipeline 4-node TB,
  re-rendered 2x transparent (REQ-259,260)
- P4: deck-content — split slides 3+8 (18->20 main), trim 8
  overflowing slides, remove redundant header (REQ-261)
- P5: render-and-test — re-render HTML+PPTX, add 9 layout/aspect-
  ratio/theme-structural tests (REQ-262)
- P6: final review + audit + ship (this commit)

Final review fixes: source .md + talking-points re-synced to 20-slide
structure; ![h:480 class:tall] directives applied; README stale
references updated; CSS trailing newline added.

Root cause: nova-sp-theme.css had zero section padding (declared
/* @theme nova-sp */ as a comment, not the @theme directive; did not
@import Marp default theme). Combined with overflow:hidden, blunt
img max-height:320px, header+footer chrome on every slide, and two
P5 diagrams with extreme aspect ratios (13.52x and 0.63x), 8 of 19
slides overflowed. NOT a P5 regression — theme CSS byte-identical
P3->P5; P5 denser content made pre-existing flaws visible.

Tags on v1.21.x line (v1.21.0 P0 -> v1.21.6 P6 final = milestone
release). 32 slide tests pass (23 original + 9 new). 94 key-file
tests pass. Pipeline check exit 0.

Jon Chery 631244458f test(P5): re-render deck + add layout/aspect-ratio/theme-structural tests (REQ-262)
Re-rendered HTML + PPTX via render_slides.sh (pinned marp-cli@4.5.0,
mermaid-cli@11.16.0, 2x transparent PNGs). 22 slides (title + 20 main
+ 1 appendix), 23 media files embedded. Theme embedded in HTML
(--sp-red + padding confirmed).

Added 9 tests to test_slides_pipeline.py (the gap that let the layout
regression through):
- test_theme_css_has_section_padding (REQ-254)
- test_theme_css_suppresses_title_chrome (REQ-256)
- test_theme_css_has_aspect_ratio_aware_images (REQ-255)

- test_render_deck_removed (REQ-257)
- test_html_embeds_theme (REQ-262)
- test_html_slide_count_matches_marp (REQ-262)

32 slide tests pass (23 original + 9 new). 94 tests pass across key

Jon Chery cc6071ee53 fix(P4): trim/split 8 overflowing slides + remove header (REQ-261)
Split slide 3 (Objectives + Anti-Goals) into Slide 3 (Objectives)
+ Slide 4 (Anti-Goals). Split slide 8 (Attestation Matrix) into
Slide 9 (QA concerns, 3 rows) + Slide 10 (Prod/DR concerns, 7 rows).
Main slide count 18 -> 20.

Trimmed: slide 7 (Pipeline) reduced to 3 bullets (4th covered by
diagram). slide 11 (Telemetry) reduced to 3 bullets. slide 14
(Deferred) merged 3 Live-AWS rows into 1 (8 -> 6 rows). slide 17
(Quarter-by-Quarter) dropped Grounding column (5 -> 4 cols). Global
table cell padding reduced (6px 10px -> 4px 8px) so 8-13 row tables
fit.

Removed header: from frontmatter (keep footer: + paginate only).
The full 51-char deck title in BOTH header and footer was redundant
chrome eating ~35px on every slide.

Updated test_marp_deck_slide_count (18 -> 20 main + 1 appendix).
Updated README slide-count convention (18 -> 20).

Jon Chery ccbccb02ac fix(P3): re-layout mermaid diagrams to TB + re-render 2x transparent (REQ-259,260)
REQ-259: telemetry-live-ops.mmd kept as flowchart TB (the 3-way
branch C/D/E makes LR too wide at 4.22 aspect; TB gives 0.63 which
is legible at h:480). Re-rendered at 2x transparent (1024x1628).
Marp deck directive updated: ![w:900] -> ![h:480] so the image
renders at a legible height using the img.tall class budget.
REQ-260: platform-pipeline.mmd restructured from 10-node LR chain
(aspect 13.52, illegible 1000x74 strip) to 4-node TB with combined
nodes (Contract->Resolver->Adapter, Wiz->Confidence->Stage gate,
Apply->Evidence). Re-rendered at 2x transparent (552x1116, aspect
0.49). Marp deck directive: ![w:1000] -> ![h:480].

Aspect-ratio bounds revised from [1.2, 2.5] to [0.4, 4.0] (GRILL
revision 1 scoped the test to deck-referenced PNGs only; the bounds
are widened to accept tall diagrams that use img.tall class). The
bounds still catch the original extreme outliers (13.52x and 0.22x).

Jon Chery 358aa62c3a fix(P2): render scripts — delete render_deck.sh, pin versions, 2x scale (REQ-257,258)
REQ-257: deleted scripts/render_deck.sh (omitted --theme, produced
unthemed output; README already documents render_slides.sh as
canonical). Pinned marp-cli@4.5.0 + mermaid-cli@11.16.0 in
render_slides.sh to prevent boilerplate-CSS drift. Removed
render_deck.sh references from README, sync_to_nova.sh, and
test_no_forge_mentions.py.
REQ-258: added -s 2 -b transparent to mermaid-cli invocation (matches
README spec line 193). Produces crisp 2x PNGs with transparent
backgrounds instead of 1x renders.

Jon Chery 94891af6ee fix(P1): theme CSS — padding, overflow, image rules, title chrome (REQ-254,255,256)
REQ-254: section padding (48px 56px 40px) + overflow:auto (authoring
signal). Root cause fix — zero padding was why every slide looked
jammed against the edges.
REQ-255: aspect-ratio-aware image rules. Replaced blunt
max-height:320px with max-width:100% + max-height:380px +
object-fit:contain. Added .wide/.tall classes. The w: directive on
tall images (slide 9) is no longer silently overridden.
REQ-256: title-slide chrome suppression (section.title header/footer
display:none), h2+lead-paragraph spacing tightening, paragraph margin
reduction, ol styling, table.dense class (4px 8px padding + 16px font
for >=8 row tables), @media print overflow:hidden for PPTX fidelity.

@import rejection documented (GRILL revision 2): Marp default theme
padding (56px 64px) does not reserve header/footer space and its base
styles conflict with the S&P palette. Manual padding gives precise
control over the padding budget.

8 axes reviewed. 5 PASS, 3 REVISE. Overall: PROCEED-WITH-REVISIONS.
Revisions (binding):
1. P5 test_png_aspect_ratios_sane scoped to only PNGs referenced in
   the current marp deck (15/19 legacy PNGs are out of bounds but
   unused — would cause false failures).
2. P1 @import rejection documented (default theme padding insufficient
   for header/footer; conflicts with S&P palette).

Jon Chery 38eb01d266 docs(P00): create phase plans — v1.22 (7 phases, 4 waves)
Vertical-slice plan with wave ordering:
- Wave 1 (P1+P2, parallel): theme CSS + render scripts. Zero file
  overlap. P1 establishes padding/overflow/image budget; P2 fixes
  render pipeline.
- Wave 2 (P3+P4, parallel): mermaid re-layout + deck content. P3
  depends on P2 (2x scale); P4 depends on P1 (padding budget).
- Wave 3 (P5): re-render HTML+PPTX + add layout/aspect-ratio/theme-
  structural tests. Depends on all above.
- Wave 4 (P6): final review + audit + milestone ship.

Tags on v1.21.x line: v1.21.0 (P0) -> v1.21.1..v1.21.5 (P1-P5) ->

Jon Chery 0404988465 docs(P00): research findings — v1.22 deck layout root cause (REQ-254..262)
8 findings (all confidence >= 0.8):
- F1 (VERY HIGH): theme CSS has zero section padding (/* @theme */ is
  a comment, not the directive; no @import of Marp default).
- F2 (VERY HIGH): overflow:hidden silently clips dense content (8/19
  slides overflow).
- F3 (HIGH): image aspect-ratio catastrophe (platform-pipeline 13.52x,
  telemetry-live-ops 0.63x).
- F4 (HIGH): header+footer chrome on every slide (~70px lost).
- F5 (MEDIUM-HIGH): render_deck.sh omits --theme (unthemed output).
- F6 (HIGH): render_slides.sh missing -s 2 -b transparent (1x PNGs).
- F7 (LOW): P5 marp-cli version bump — NOT the cause (theme CSS byte-
  identical P3->P5).
- F8 (VERY HIGH): test coverage gaps — no layout/overflow/aspect-ratio
  tests; static-file-property tests only.

Persona roster (v1.22): lead-developer (theme CSS + deck markdown +
mermaid + .ciagent), backend-engineer (render scripts + tests).
frontend-engineer + data-engineer deactivated. D-148 (theme CSS is
lead-developer, not frontend), D-149 (no new personas).

Jon Chery 71f0f1a05d docs(init): validate specification — v1.22 milestone (REQ-254..262)
Established active_milestone: v1.22 (Nova Deck Layout Fix). Added
v1.22 objective to PROJECT.md (NFR milestone, 7 phases, tags on
v1.21.x line). Added REQ-254..262 to REQUIREMENTS.md covering theme
CSS (padding, overflow, image rules, title chrome), render scripts
(delete render_deck.sh, pin versions, 2x scale), mermaid re-layout
(LR + 2-row wrap), deck content (trim/split 8 overflowing slides),
and re-render + layout/aspect-ratio tests.

Root cause (per investigation): nova-sp-theme.css has zero section
padding (declares /* @theme nova-sp */ as a comment, not the @theme
directive; does not @import Marp default theme). Combined with
overflow:hidden, blunt img max-height:320px, header+footer chrome on
every slide, and two P5 diagrams with extreme aspect ratios (13.52x
and 0.63x), 8 of 19 slides overflow. NOT a P5 regression — theme CSS
byte-identical P3->P5; P5 denser content made pre-existing flaws

Nova Slides Render / render (push) Failing after 1m4s
AUTONOMY_THESIS.md (git mv from NO_HUMANS_THESIS.md): reframe from
'removing humans' to 'autonomy in operations, human at stage gates'.
Drop D-### citations + internal file paths; keep anti-claims, reworded.
Anti-claim #1 now: 'decisions are NOT made by an LLM — deterministic
scripts calculate a score; the platform functions without AI'.

NORTH_STAR.md:
- Vision: 'invisible' → 'visible' (operations become visible — recurring
  theme); polish for technical audience (security, remediation velocity,
  reliability, lead time).
- Objective #2: 'provable trust in AI decisions' → 'provable trust in
  automated decisions' (deterministic scripts calculate a score;
  platform functions without AI).
- Objective #3: four CTO-grade metrics (Lead Time PR→Prod, Infra Vuln
  Count trend, MTTR, Cloud Spend Reduction) → all flow into PowerBI.
- Objective #4: 'default substrate for agentic consumption' → integrate
  with externally owned PDLC/SDLC/Agentic/Citizen Developer platforms
  regardless of source; Nova provides skills + MCP endpoints; all prod
  intents go through the same controls + quality gates.
- Anti-goals: drop #1 (hyperscaler competitor), #4 (legacy untagged),
  #5 (sold to operators). Add: 'not an upstream development platform',
  'not a replacement for the PDLC'. Reword #3 (no 'removes humans').

docs/raci.md: 3 roles → 4 roles. Add Quality Engineering column. Rename
Release Management → SRE. Split release attestation into Quality
attestation (QA) + Production readiness (SRE). Platform no longer holds
A for attestation — reassigned to QE/SRE.

docs/scope.md: add integration framing (skills + MCP endpoints, all
sources go through same controls).

Render scripts: default deck name → nova-autonomous-cloud-delivery.
ONBOARDING + terraform/onboarding: 'no-humans' → 'autonomous'.
