Operator ruling: "I care about the state of the repository and what the status of each
spec is based on that state" — not a hand-maintained task board. This is that report.
conformance/lib/status.py (stdlib-only, --selftest) sits beside lib/coverage.py and
IMPORTS it rather than forking the registry/test parsers. Driven by a new
`conformance/run.sh --status`; artifacts land in _artifacts/status/ alongside coverage
and are git-ignored by the existing convention. Exit codes follow ci/lib.sh (0/1/3);
--strict-coverage also applies the status hygiene gate.
Signals derived per requirement: is there an implementing artifact; is it RECONCILED
(walk resources: from clusters/dev, expand each Flux Kustomization's spec.path, recurse
— so a commented-out resource correctly does not count); is there a tagged test and is
its body executable or a TODO scaffold (TODO markers OUTRANK an executable: "true"
annotation — ambiguity never upgrades a row).
DELIBERATELY NOT DERIVED, and reported as such rather than defaulting to green:
proof-of-pass (nothing tracked in git records a run result — _artifacts/ and results/
are git-ignored) and cluster liveness. "Reconciled" means Flux WOULD apply it, not that
it is healthy. PROVEN is reported as "not derivable" for all 51.
WHAT IT SHOWS THAT coverage.md DOES NOT. Coverage reports 37/51 covered, 0
safety-critical gaps. Three of those claims do not survive repo state:
1. 5 of the 37 "covered" requirements have only a TODO-body scaffold (R-STATE-03,
R-OBS-02, R-OBS-04, R-GITOPS-03, R-GITOPS-02). Coverage counts a tagged file; it
never looks inside it.
2. R-STATE-03 is SAFETY-CRITICAL and its L3 fault test asserts nothing. Coverage reports
"0 safety-critical gaps" only because dr-restore/chainsaw-test.yaml exists and carries
an L3 label. --strict now fails on this.
3. R-UPD-01/02/03 are NOT reconciled: platform/image-automation/ is commented out of
platform/kustomization.yaml. Coverage shows them covered with executable L3 tests,
which reads as delivered; automated updates are actually 0/3 wired+testable.
Headline: 51 requirements | reconciled 20 (+12 partial) | executable test 32 |
wired+testable 22 (+8 partial) | scaffold-only 5 | PROVEN 0 (not derivable).
Also surfaces 18 requirements with no reconciled manifest citing their R-ID — listed as
a traceability gap (R-TEST-04) rather than guessed either way. Annotating those manifests
makes the report self-correct, so it acts as a forcing function instead of another
hand-maintained map.
Serves: R-TEST-01..06. Gate: MERGE GATE: PASS.
