docs(P47): presentation slide updates + HIPAA removal from all docs
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

# alb — Application Load Balancer (load balancer + target group + listener)
> **Module kind:** primitive | **Version:** 1.0.0
An Application Load Balancer with a target group and a listener. This is
a multi-resource module: it creates a load balancer, a target group, and
a listener that forwards traffic to the target group. The target group
is what `ecs-service` registers its tasks with.
## Resources
| Resource | Type | Purpose |
|----------|------|---------|
| load_balancer | `aws_lb` | Application load balancer in the VPC subnets |
| target_group | `aws_lb_target_group` | Target group for the ECS service tasks |
| listener | `aws_lb_listener` | Listener forwarding the LB port to the target group |
## Inputs
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `name` | string | yes | — | Name tag for the load balancer and child resources |
| `subnets` | string | yes | — | Comma-separated subnet ids (from `vpc`) |
| `security_group` | string | yes | — | Security group id for the load balancer |
| `port` | number | no | 80 | Listener port |
| `protocol` | string | no | `HTTP` | Listener protocol |
| `region` | string | yes | — | AWS region the load balancer is created in |
## Outputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| `lb_arn` | arn | The load balancer ARN |
| `listener_arn` | arn | The listener ARN |
| `target_group_arn` | arn | The target group ARN |
## Usage
```json
{
"id": "alb",
"type": "aws:elbv2:loadbalancer",
"module": "alb@1.0.0",
"inputs": {
"name": "acdl-microservice",
"subnets": "ref:vpc.subnet_ids",
"security_group": "ref:roles.role_arn",
"port": 8080,
"protocol": "HTTP",
"region": "us-east-1"
}
}
```
The `target_group_arn` output is referenced by `ecs-service` as its
`lb_target_group_arn` input to wire the service to the ALB.
## Compliance extension points
- **TLS / HTTPS listener** — add `aws_acm_certificate` + `ssl_policy` + `certificate_arn` for encryption in transit (SOC2 CC6.1, PCI-DSS 4.1, GDPR Art.32).
- **Access logs** — add `access_logs { bucket = ..., prefix = ... }` to the load balancer (SOX, SOC2 CC7.2, DORA ICT audit trail).
- **Security group rules** — add ingress/egress rules restricting traffic to known sources (SOC2 CC6.6, PCI-DSS 1.2).
- **Health check** — add a `health_check` block to the target group (SOC2 CC7.3 monitoring, DORA operational resilience).
- **WAF** — add `aws_wafv2_web_acl_association` for application-layer protection (SOC2 CC7.6, PCI-DSS 6.5, DORA ICT risk).
- **Deregistration delay** — add `deregistration_delay` for graceful draining (SOC2 CC9.1 resilience).
## Examples
Validated example contracts are in [`examples/`](examples/). The platform-test
pipeline validates them against `schemas/contract.schema.json`.
### Simple
A minimal deployment:
[`examples/simple.yaml`](examples/simple.yaml)
```yaml
uses: acdl/pipelines/deploy.yaml@v1.6
module: alb
environment: dev
inputs:
name: my-alb
subnets: subnet-aaa,subnet-bbb
security_group: sg-xxx
port: 80
protocol: HTTP
region: us-east-1
```
### Complex
A production deployment with optional inputs:
[`examples/complex.yaml`](examples/complex.yaml)
```yaml
# Complex ALB with HTTPS + ACM cert (requires a consumer-supplied domain)
uses: acdl/pipelines/deploy.yaml@v1.6
module: alb
environment: dev
inputs:
name: my-production-alb
subnets: subnet-aaa,subnet-bbb
security_group: sg-xxx
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
region: us-east-1
```
## Versioning
`1.0.0` — interface MAJOR, behavior MINOR, lifecycle PATCH. MAJOR bumps
require a new registry entry (immutable publication); old entries enter
a 12-month deprecation window.
