Extension Configuration

Extension	Enabled	Decided At
Security Baseline	Yes (blocking)	Requirements Analysis
Property-Based Testing	No	Requirements Analysis

Operations Configuration

• Include Operations Phase: Yes
• Decided At: Requirements Analysis

Scope Decisions (from feature-selection.md)

• Public website: documentation/instructions only — where the website build lands in wwwroot/, how it coexists with wwwroot/admin/, and what a per-website workspace must deliver. The website's own build/deploy workflow stays out of scope (Q4 = A).
• Environments: local, test, production only.
• Observability stack: UptimeRobot (uptime), Umami (analytics), console logging + Sentry (logging/errors).
• Deployment constraint: upload as a published .NET application; no server configuration may be required.
• Reference: existing working Gitea Actions setup at K:\Development\SlpSoftware\Projects\SlpSoftware (React/Vite) is the starting point.
• Health check endpoint: IN SCOPE (decided 2026-07-27). Liveness only — AddHealthChecks() + MapHealthChecks("/health"), no package needed and no database check (Q17 = A / D-21, superseding the earlier note that AddDbContextCheck might be included). /health must be added to AvailabilityMiddleware._bypassPrefixes so the availability gate cannot return 503 for it. Health = infrastructure liveness; Availability/capabilities = CMS domain state — these stay strictly separate.

Note

: this section records the earliest scope decisions. The authoritative and complete decision set is inception/requirements/requirements.md § 3 (D-01…D-32) — in particular, Q4 = C changed the public website from living directly in wwwroot/ to wwwroot/web/.

Stage Progress

INCEPTION

• Workspace Detection — Complete
• Reverse Engineering — Complete, approved 2026-07-27 (full rerun of all 8 _shared/ artifacts)
• Requirements Analysis — Complete, approved 2026-07-27. 24 FRs (FR-24 added at Application Design), 10 NFRs, 32 decisions, 7 assumptions, 4 open items, 4 documented security deviations. Two question rounds: requirement-verification-questions.md (25 Q) and requirement-clarification-questions.md (5 Q).
• User Stories — SKIP (infrastructure/operations work; no new end-user functionality or persona. Offered at Requirements Analysis approval, not requested.)
• Workflow Planning — Complete, approved 2026-07-27. Artifact: inception/plans/execution-plan.md
• Application Design — Complete, approved 2026-07-27. 14 code components (9 new, 5 modified) + 2 workflow components. Artifacts in inception/application-design/. Two composition conflicts found and carried to Unit 2. Added FR-24, closed OPEN-02.
• Units Generation — Complete (awaiting approval). 7 units in 4 execution rounds. Artifacts: unit-of-work.md, unit-of-work-dependency.md, unit-of-work-story-map.md

CONSTRUCTION

Units finalised at Units Generation (see inception/application-design/unit-of-work.md): U1 Hosting & Serving · U2 Data Durability · U3 Security Headers & CSP · U4 Observability · U5 CI Workflow & Gates · U6 Deploy Workflow · U7 Documentation

Execution rounds (Q4 = B): R1 = U1 + U2 · R2 = U3 + U4 · R3 = U5 + U6 · R4 = U7. One commit per unit; single PR at the end (Q6 = A).

• Functional Design — EXECUTE for U1, U2, U3, U4; SKIP for U5, U6, U7. U1 ✅ U2 ✅ approved 2026-07-27 · U3 ✅ U4 ✅ 2026-07-28
• NFR Requirements — SKIP (all units) — already comprehensively captured in requirements.md § 5 and § 6
• NFR Design — EXECUTE for U3, U4; SKIP for the rest. Deliberate deviation from the default NFR-Requirements/NFR-Design coupling — rationale in the execution plan. U3 ✅ U4 ✅ 2026-07-28 — 11 patterns for U3, 10 for U4. Closed OPEN-01; raised REF-U3-01
• Infrastructure Design — EXECUTE for U6, U7 per the original plan; SKIP for the rest. U6 ✅ 2026-07-28 — single Pi, directory-only environment split, systemd --user (no sudo), releases/current/shared layout, 2-release retention, health check via public URL. Raised INFRA-U6-01 (linger requirement, carried to Operations). U7 did not need it in practice: by Units Generation, U7's scope had narrowed to documentation-only (Q8 = A — operational/infrastructure decisions moved to Operations), so it went straight to Code Generation with no infrastructure to design
• Code Generation — EXECUTE (all 7 units, each built and tested before its completion message). U1 ✅ U2 ✅ 2026-07-27 (253 backend tests). U3 ✅ 2026-07-28 (315). U4 ✅ 2026-07-28 (366 backend + 237 frontend). U6 ✅ U5 ✅ 2026-07-28 — Round 3: deploy-scp.yaml + continuous_integration.yaml, 372 backend + 237 frontend tests (unchanged from Round 2, confirming no regressions from FR-21/FR-22 fixes), 0 vulnerable packages, lint clean. Raised REF-U5-01 (Umami-origin gate needs a parallel Gitea variable, since the backend side is a host env var per D-16). U7 ✅ 2026-07-28 — Round 4: WEBSITE_WORKSPACE.md, README.md and .env.example updated, all claims re-verified against actual U1–U6 source. All 7 units complete.
• Build and Test — EXECUTE — Complete 2026-07-28. 609 unit tests (372 backend + 237 frontend), 0 vulnerable packages, 0 build errors. Plus live-host integration verification: static content/SPA-fallback/header-scoping, real master↔slave communication proving the persistent key ring survives a process restart, and W3C trace-id correlation in real log output. Artifacts in construction/build-and-test/

OPERATIONS

• Deployment Setup — EXECUTE
• Monitoring Setup — EXECUTE
• Production Readiness Validation — EXECUTE (includes the dotnet-appsettings compliance gate)

Execution Plan Summary

• Risk Level: High — three destructive-and-silent failure modes (customer website loss, Data Protection key-ring loss, automatic migration against production)
• Stages to Execute: Functional Design (×4: U1–U4), NFR Design (×2: U3, U4), Infrastructure Design (×2: U6, U7), Code Generation (×7), Build and Test, Deployment Setup, Monitoring Setup, Production Readiness Validation
• Stages to Skip: User Stories (no end-user functionality), NFR Requirements (already captured), plus per-unit skips as listed above

Current Status

• Lifecycle Phase: OPERATIONS
• Current Stage: Build and Test complete 2026-07-28 (all 7 units, full-suite + live-host integration verification). CONSTRUCTION phase is now closed
• Next Stage: Deployment Setup (Operations Configuration = Yes, decided at Requirements Analysis)
• Status: Rounds 1–4 all done, nothing pushed. Entering Operations phase

Round 2 Design Record (2026-07-28)

• Functional Design U3 + U4 complete and committed (357d395)
• NFR Design U3 — construction/u3-security-headers/nfr-design/ — 11 patterns. All new types in Core/Hosting/Security/, so Core.Tests can reach them (avoids repeating U1's Step 11 deviation)
• NFR Design U4 — construction/u4-observability/nfr-design/ — 10 patterns. Sentry.AspNetCore 6.8.0 into Core; @sentry/react ^10.68.0 into frontend
• OPEN-01 CLOSED: correlation ID = W3C trace ID from the ambient Activity, TraceIdentifier as fallback. Rationale: propagates master→slave via traceparent, and equals the traceId ASP.NET Core's ProblemDetails already returns
• REF-U3-01 raised: BR-U3-22's Umami-origin startup warning is not implementable — the backend cannot read VITE_UMAMI_WEBSITE_ID. Withdrawn from U3 and replaced by a blocking U5 CI gate comparing the frontend build variable against that environment's SecurityHeaders:AllowedScriptOrigins
• Additions beyond the functional design, each with rationale in the pattern docs: Set-Cookie added to the scrub list; a sentry-tunnel rate limiter; OnRejected on the existing rate limiter (today a 429 leaves no trace anywhere); SentrySdk.FlushAsync before the migration-failure rethrow (otherwise the one Critical event dies with the process)
• Three defaults chosen rather than escalated (each one line to change, listed at the end of U4's pattern doc): JSON console outside Development, TracesSampleRate 0.1, tunnel cap 200 KB
• U4 modifies two files from already-committed units — DatabaseMigrationExtensions (U2) and AdminTokenValidator (U1). Both additive; to be named in the U4 commit message

Round 1 Verification Record (2026-07-27)

• dotnet build SlpModularCms.sln -c Release — 0 errors
• Backend tests — 253 passed, 0 failed (Core 83, Availability 82, Identity 37, Master 51); baseline was 219
• New EF migration 20260727203036_AddDataProtectionKeys — verified purely additive
• Embedded placeholder resource name verified against the compiled assembly manifest
• Carried to phase-level Build and Test: composed-startup behaviour that needs a running host and a real database — /admin trailing-slash redirect, 404-vs-HTML for missing assets, SPA fallback and placeholder resolution, /health while availability-disabled, MigrateCoreDatabase against SQL Server, and both hosts starting
• Deviation: U1 plan Step 11 (StaticContentTests) not implemented — the code lives in SlpModularCms.Api, which has no test project by convention; behaviour carried to Build and Test instead. Recorded in the unit's generation-summary.md

Round 2 Verification Record (2026-07-28)

• dotnet build SlpModularCms.sln -c Release — 0 errors (70 warnings, all pre-existing package advisories)
• Backend tests — 372 passed, 0 failed at stage close (Core 196, Availability 82, Master 57, Identity 37); was 253 after Round 1, 366 after U4, +6 from the integrity-check fix
• Frontend tests — 237 passed, 0 failed; baseline 213
• npx tsc -b clean; eslint on every changed frontend file reports 0 problems; full pnpm run lint unchanged at the pre-existing 5 errors / 1 warning (FR-21, U5)
• Sentry.AspNetCore 6.8.0 ships a native net10.0 asset — the carried-forward compatibility question is closed
• @sentry/react 10.68.0; pnpm-lock.yaml diff is additions only
• Two findings: z.string().url() accepts htp:// in Zod 4 (URL constructor accepts any scheme), so the pre-existing frontend validation never caught the typo BR-U4-24 names — now z.url({ protocol: /^https?$/ }). And appsettings.json comments are verified by DeployedConfigurationTests against the real provider rather than assumed, because the failure mode is both hosts refusing to start
• One deviation: IAdminTokenValidator collapsed to a single Validate → AdminTokenResult instead of adding an overload. Two methods with an invisible difference at the call site let a substitute silently invert the access decision while both compiled — see U4's generation-summary.md
• Two defects found in local testing after Round 2, both fixed in this branch rather than filed, per the standing rule that tech debt is for large or high-impact changes only:
  1. Ciphertext written before U2 cannot be decrypted by the database key ring (980dc80). Recorded as ASM-08; local rows cleared and re-registered
  2. VerifyIntegrityAsync could not tell an unreachable slave from one that does not recognise the master, so the only recoverable state was never repaired (6957ec7). Now four distinct outcomes; automatic registration on a rejected key is safe because the slave refuses any key that does not match an existing registration
• Note: fix 2 is master/slave domain behaviour, not deployment work. It sits in this branch by explicit decision, not because it belongs to the feature
• Carried to phase-level Build and Test: trace-ID propagation master → slave, TraceId present in rendered console output, tunnel status codes, the security_event tag on a real Sentry event, threshold behaviour end to end, and CSP/HSTS header presence on real static assets and error responses
