# JOURNAL — Phase 2 (per-recipe test authoring)

Builder-private (append-only). Builder rationalisations, dead-ends, in-the-moment reasoning. The
Adversary does NOT read this before forming a verdict; objective evidence goes in STATUS-2 / REVIEW-2.

## 2026-05-28 — Phase 2 bootstrap

Phase 1e completed @2026-05-28 (commit 0fe1218, NO VETO, all HC1–HC4 Adversary cold-verified PASS).
Foundation is in place: the orchestrator deploys ONCE per run, performs each lifecycle op ONCE
(install→deploy / upgrade→chaos-redeploy of PR head / backup→`abra app backup` / restore→`abra app
restore`), and runs **both** generic (`tests/_generic/test_<op>.py`) and overlay
(`tests/<recipe>/test_<op>.py`) assertion files **additively** against the shared post-op state.
Pre-op seeds live in optional `tests/<recipe>/ops.py` (`pre_install`/`pre_upgrade`/`pre_backup`/
`pre_restore`). The deploy-count guard (DG4.1) stays =1; teardown is sacred. Per Phase-1e HC1, the
upgrade tier proves PR-head was deployed via `chaos-version` label = `head_ref` (head SHA from
$REF). Per HC2, repo-local PR-authored code runs only for recipes on
`tests/repo-local-approved.txt` (default-deny).

**Bootstrap (this session):**
1. `git pull --rebase` — already up to date.
2. Verified §1 access: `ssh cc-ci` OK (NixOS 24.11), Gitea API HTTP 200, wildcard
   `probe-$RANDOM.ci.commoninternet.net` resolves to gateway `143.244.213.108`.
3. Read the Phase-2 plan + plan.md §6.1/§7/§9 (loop protocol, single-writer ownership, gate
   handshake, anti-drift). Read STATUS-1e + REVIEW-1e final to inherit the harness invariants
   (HC1–HC4 cold-verified PASS, F1e-2 not blocking).
4. Surveyed existing state: `tests/<recipe>/` already exists for **custom-html, cryptpad, keycloak,
   lasuite-docs, matrix-synapse, n8n** — these were built out as Phase-1d/1e overlays + recipe_meta
   + ops.py. The lifecycle overlay model (test_install/upgrade/backup/restore.py + ops.py) is the
   foundation. Phase 2 adds **parity-port functional tests** + **≥2 NEW recipe-specific tests** +
   **dependency/SSO resolver** + **PARITY.md** per recipe.
5. Surveyed `references/recipe-maintainer` (mounted at `/srv/recipe-maintainer/`) — the parity
   source. Per-recipe corpus:
   - **custom-html** — health_check.py (200 check)
   - **n8n** — health_check.py
   - **keycloak** — health_check.py + oidc_integration.py (cross-recipe with lasuite-docs)
   - **cryptpad** — health_check.py + oidc_login.py
   - **lasuite-docs** — health_check.py + oidc_login.py + upload_conversion.py
   - **lasuite-meet** — health_check.py + oidc_login.py + meeting_flow.py + webrtc-media.py +
     webrtc-relay.py
   - **matrix-synapse** — *shell* tests: compress_state.sh + test_complexity_limit.sh + test_purge.sh
     (will port semantics to Python under cc-ci)
   - **hedgedoc / authentik / immich / bluesky-pds / mumble / gitea / lichen / lichen-markdown** —
     no `tests/` dir under recipe-info yet, will fill from plan §4.3 spec.

**Plan-shape orientation:**
- `tests/<recipe>/test_<op>.py` (lifecycle overlays) — already established.
- `tests/<recipe>/functional/` — Phase-2 introduces this subdir for parity-port + new specific tests.
  Discovery currently globs `test_*.py` at the top level only; will need to recurse (Q0.2).
- `tests/<recipe>/playwright/` — same.
- `tests/<recipe>/PARITY.md` — Phase-2 introduces this; mapping table per recipe.

**Bootstrap commits incoming:**
- Add STATUS-2.md / BACKLOG-2.md / JOURNAL-2.md (this session).
- DECISIONS.md append: PARITY.md format, functional/ + playwright/ subdirs, dep-resolver shape.

Will now seed DECISIONS, then begin Q0.1 (vendor helpers into runner/harness/) — keeping the
custom-html overlay working as the reference recipe. The /loop will self-pace.
