S19 validation — 2026-11-08

• Bootstrap and project generator: 7 tests passed. Covers deterministic regeneration, modified/added/missing files, moved tags, obsolete-file removal, project-file preservation, symlinks, existing destinations, all three component selections and actual Maven regeneration with generated/ absent.
• Formatter integration: passed read-only checks, formatting, import cleanup, UTF-8, idempotence, parser failures and discovery of newly added files.
• Shared CI behavior: 19 tests passed, including optional components, configuration precedence, path containment, publication gates, existing-tag preservation, architecture checks and bounded process execution.
• Shared release behavior: 34 tests passed, including recovery, ambiguous outcomes, locking, actual remote shell, digest checks and readiness timeouts.
• Generated recipe-demo: backend verification, standards and coverage, frontend lint/tests/build and both prebuilt Docker images passed using the common recipe.
• Real isolated deployment test: pushed uniquely named example images to the internal Gitea registry, prepared digests, deployed two synthetic revisions, rolled back, and verified both container revision labels. Temporary local Compose containers were removed. Registry test images remain as evidence.
• Agile Dancers consumer: full pipeline passed with 73 backend tests, 32 frontend tests, 4 browser tests, 19 standards regression tests, both prebuilt images and combined backend coverage 1771/1841 (96.20%).
• Agile Dancers standalone Docker source builds: backend and frontend passed. Backend verification used a disposable PostgreSQL instance and BuildKit secrets; no production database or deployment was involved.

No production deployment was performed. Live NAS SSH connectivity, production credentials and production rollback across existing retained releases remain operational validation limits. Legacy release-state JSON remains compatible; pre-S19 retained releases use current health/settings as documented in README.md.

S19 review follow-up — 2026-11-10

• Skills relocated unchanged to landscape/skills/ with upstream revision records, attribution and licenses. New consumers reference landscape workflows.
• Eight bootstrap/generator tests passed, including actual Maven bootstrap with generated/ absent, all component selections and the CLI's default mini-pc label.
• Twenty-one CI tests passed, including shared runner scope/identity and preflight rejection of missing, offline or differently labelled runners.
• Thirty-four release behavior tests passed against the actual remote shell.
• Formatter integration passed; changed Java helpers formatted with the pinned engine.
• User-scoped mini-pc runner registered and online; repository-level API runner listings exclude inherited user runners, so preflight checks the selected scope and verifies that the repository owner matches for user scope.

Consumer builds and actual remote workflow results are recorded in the consuming repositories. No production deployment is part of this follow-up.
