-
-A 20-phase NFR sweep (no new features) themed around five user-directed
-axes: **Simplify without regressions**, **Security**, **Maintainability**,
-**User/Developer Experience**, **No Humans Onboarding Flow**. The v1.15
-rebrand left a fresh debt layer (stale brand strings, a state-bucket
-drift, a Kyverno policy contradicting the Nova tagging standard, dead
-code) that this milestone cleared, alongside genuine simplification
-(dedup helpers, a workflow generator, file splits) and the first
-self-service onboarding request path (request-path only; real AWS
-provisioning deferred, D-113).
-
-**Milestone type:** NFR (all phases fix/chore/docs/refactor/test). The
-final phase's patch IS the deliverable. Tags on the v1.15.x line:
-`v1.15.5` (P0) → `v1.15.6..v1.15.25` (P1–P20) → `v1.15.26` (P21 final =

-
-**Grill:** PASS-with-binding (G-111..G-113, E-002 deferred to P21).
-G-111: gate criterion restated 18V+4S + Skipped logic. G-112: P9 source
-model pinned. G-113: P12/P13 import direction documented.
-
-**Wave outcomes:**
- Wave 1 (P1–P4): state-bucket + Kyverno rebrand fix (correctness
-  regression), user-facing ACDL→Nova sweep, dead-code cleanup, except
-  narrowing.
- Wave 2 (P5–P9): regression-verify dedup (~70 lines), run-platform
-  HITL fn + config, contract-resolver envloader + registry kind, workflow
-  generator (sync_workflows.py + workflows-src/), run-platform split
-  (decommission + uptime helpers). Gate PASS at P9.
- Wave 3 (P10–P14): ingestor defense-in-depth (fail closed on missing
-  IAM), payload validation (size cap + schema), split contract-resolver
-  (decommission + CLI modules), split regression-verify (CLI module),
-  schema-driven outputs + schema cache. Mid-milestone checkpoint clean.
- Wave 4 (P15–P17): run-platform --help + flags doc, workflows README
-  catalog (7 workflows), getting-started consolidation (offline-first).
- Wave 5 (P18–P20): onboarding schema + onboard_consumer Lambda action,
-  env-file autogen (core/onboarding.py), cross-account role Terraform
-  (offline-proven, D-114).
-
-**Outcome:** 20 requirements (REQ-165..184) satisfied; ~630 tests pass;
-regression gate 18V+4S; the onboarding request path is self-service (no

-
-Given a consumer onboarding request (validated against
-schemas/onboarding.schema.json), generate a ``<env>.json`` environment
-binding file from the dev template, filling in the consumer's ownerId +
-billingTag. The generated file is a starting point for the platform team

-
-This is the "request path" half of the no-humans onboarding flow (D-113).
-Real AWS account/network/state provisioning is a future feature milestone;
-this module removes the human handoff from the *request* step by
-generating the binding file + emitting a git patch / PR-branch instruction.

-    python3 core/onboarding.py <request.json> [--out <env.json>]
-    python3 core/onboarding.py --request '{"consumerRepo":"acdl/c","requestedEnvironment":"qa","ownerId":"team-a","billingTag":"cc-a"}'

-# Nova Onboarding — No-Humans Request Path (v1.16, REQ-182..184)
-
-The v1.16 milestone implements the **request path** of the no-humans
-onboarding flow (D-113). A consumer can submit an onboarding request
-without contacting the platform team; the platform generates an
-environment binding + (in a future milestone) provisions the AWS resources.
-
-## The 3-step request path
-
-### Step 1 — Submit an onboarding request (P18, REQ-182)
-
-A consumer submits an onboarding request to the Nova platform Lambda:
-
-```bash
-# Via the Lambda Function URL (IAM auth):
-curl -X POST "$NOVA_LAMBDA_URL" \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -d '{
-    "action": "onboard_consumer",
-    "consumerRepo": "acdl/my-app",
-    "requestedEnvironment": "dev",
-    "ownerId": "team-x",
-    "billingTag": "cost-center-x"
-  }'
-```
-
-The Lambda validates the payload against
-[`schemas/onboarding.schema.json`](../schemas/onboarding.schema.json),
-then writes a `pending` row to the `nova-contracts` DynamoDB table
-(D-119). No AWS resources are created by this action (D-113).
-
-### Step 2 — Generate an environment binding (P19, REQ-183)
-
-The platform (or the consumer locally) generates an environment binding
-file from the request:
-
-```bash
-python3 core/onboarding.py --request '{
-  "consumerRepo": "acdl/my-app",
-  "requestedEnvironment": "qa",
-  "ownerId": "team-x",
-  "billingTag": "cost-center-x"
-}' --out core/environments/qa.json
-```
-
-This produces a `<env>.json` from the `dev.json` template, filling in
-the `ownerId` + `billingTag` + a description. The `account_id` is a
-placeholder (`000000000000`) for the platform team to fill with the real
-account. The generated file validates against
-[`schemas/environment.schema.json`](../schemas/environment.schema.json).
-
-### Step 3 — Cross-account role + ABAC tag grant (P20, REQ-184)
-
-The platform authors the consumer deploy-role + `nova:owner` ABAC tag
-grant via Terraform:
-
-```bash
-cd terraform/onboarding
-terraform init -backend=false
-terraform validate
-NOVA_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=123456789012 terraform plan \
-  -var consumer_repo=acdl/my-app \
-  -var owner_id=team-x
-```
-
-**Offline-proven only (D-114):** `terraform validate` + `terraform plan`
-pass; **no live apply** in v1.16. The live apply (creating the real
-cross-account role + OIDC trust) is deferred to a future feature
-milestone (D-113).
-
-## What is NOT automated (deferred)
-
- **Real AWS account/network/state provisioning** — the request path
-  generates a binding file with a placeholder `account_id`; the actual
-  AWS account creation + VPC + state backend is a future feature (D-113).
- **Live cross-account role apply** — the Terraform is offline-proven
-  only (D-114); live apply is deferred.
- **OIDC trust policy** — the onboarding Terraform uses a placeholder
-  OIDC provider; real OIDC federation is blocked on
-  go-gitea/gitea#36988 (carries forward from v1.1).

-# terraform/onboarding/ — Consumer deploy-role + ABAC tag grant (P20, REQ-184)
-
-Offline-proven Terraform for the cross-account consumer deploy-role +
-`nova:owner` ABAC tag grant. This is the "role grant" half of the
-no-humans onboarding flow (D-113); the "request" half is P18 (Lambda
-action) + P19 (env-file autogen).
-
-## Scope (D-114)
-
-This Terraform is **offline-proven only** in v1.16:
- `terraform validate` passes.
- `terraform plan` (with `NOVA_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID` set) produces the expected
-  role + policy.
- **No live apply** — `NOVA_LIFECYCLE_MODE=plan` default. Live apply is
-  deferred to a future feature milestone (D-113/D-114).
-
-## Variables
-
-| Variable | Description | Default |
-|----------|-------------|---------|
-| `consumer_repo` | The consumer repository (org/repo) | `acdl/consumer-a` |
-| `owner_id` | The owning team (for `nova:owner` tag) | `team-a` |
-| `account_id` | The consumer's AWS account ID | `000000000000` |
-| `region` | AWS region | `us-east-1` |
-
-## Resources
-
- `aws_iam_role.consumer_deploy` — the consumer's deploy role with a
-  trust policy (assumed by the consumer's CI runner).
- `aws_iam_role_policy.consumer_invoke` — inline policy granting
-  `lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl` on the platform Lambda, scoped via
-  `aws:PrincipalTag/nova:owner == var.owner_id` (ABAC).
- `aws_iam_tag.owner` — tags the role with `nova:owner` + `nova:contract`.
-
-## Usage (offline)
-
-```bash
-cd terraform/onboarding
-terraform init -backend=false
-terraform validate
-NOVA_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=123456789012 terraform plan -var consumer_repo=acdl/my-app -var owner_id=team-x

-# ACDL Reusable Deploy Workflow — Gitea Actions (dev environment)
-#
-# This reusable workflow implements the central deployment pipeline contract:
-#   pipelines/contract.yml (validated against schemas/deploy-pipeline.schema.json)
-#
-# The same contract is implemented by .github/workflows/deploy.yml (GitHub
-# Actions, production). Both files must be byte-identical — the only
-# declared difference is the forge/runtime, not the stages or commands.
-#
-# Consumer repos invoke this workflow via a versioned tag (floating MAJOR + MINOR):
-#   uses: acdl/.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.9   (Gitea)
-#   uses: acdl/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@v1.9  (GitHub)
-#
-# Unversioned references (@main, bare) are discouraged — the consumer's setup
-# must be immutable + resilient. The versioned tag is the only immutability
-# lever (version constraints cannot be expressed inside the contract).
-#
-# What this workflow does:
-#   1. Checks out the consumer repo (the repo that invoked the workflow).
-#   2. Checks out the ACDL platform repo into the workspace (platform/).
-#      This is the run-time fetch — consumers never clone the platform repo.
-#   3. Installs runtime deps: Python 3.12, Terraform 1.9.*, Checkov.
-#   4. Configures AWS auth (OIDC default; static-key override via secrets).
-#   5. Runs scripts/run_platform.sh against the consumer's contract path.
-#   6. Uploads artifacts (emitted Terraform, Checkov JSON, confidence JSON,
-#      platform log) for auditability.
-#
-# Inputs:
-#   contract  — path to the consumer's contract YAML (default .nova/contract.yml)
-#   mode      — full | plan-only | check-only (default full; dev = full apply,
-#               higher environments hold for HITL — the calling repo or the
-#               forge environment gate enforces that)
-#
-# Auth (zero-trust default — see README.md#credentials--zero-trust):
-#   OIDC federation is the default. permissions: id-token: write lets the
-#   forge mint a short-lived STS token. The role-to-assume is scoped by the
-#   consumer's repository identity (ABAC) — the workflow assumes the role
-#   that matches repo:org/consumer-repo:ref:refs/heads/main, and the session
-#   policy restricts view/update to resources tagged acdl:owner=<consumer-repo>.
-#
-#   Override (where OIDC is unavailable, e.g. Gitea pending
-#   go-gitea/gitea#36988): set NOVA_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID + NOVA_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
-#   as repository secrets. The platform-managed scheduled pipeline rotates
-#   the key on a daily cadence. When .env.secrets is used locally instead,
-#   rotating the key out of band is the consumer's responsibility.
