    Read-only Presentation QA Guardrails Added

    Maintenance ID: 0.1.00046.presentation-qa-guardrails Date: 2026-10-06 Scope: presentation workload checker/tests, usage documentation, CI, changelog docket/trunk

    What changed

    • Added a read-only checker for one workload's explicit paths, declared commit pair, per-file evidence, and reconciled totals. Only assigned records and that PR's own maintenance docket/count update are allowed.
    • Protected source bytes and structure with a conservative emphasis subset. Ambiguous Markdown, existing markup, protected blocks, and layout changes remain findings for human review; source is never normalized.
    • Added adversarial regression tests, including no-change reviews, omitted unchanged evidence, wrong revisions, irregular/nested paths, moved/missing files, code, links, tables, escaped delimiters, and poetry hard breaks.
    • Added exact handoff commands and limitations in docs/presentation-qa-checks.md, with a narrow baseline pointer. CI runs the regression suite without replacing the Boris gates or inventing workload assignments.
    • Recounted 63 existing changelog records and this docket. The trunk now declares the actual 64 records.

    What was deliberately left alone

    • No archive presentation workload, sweep, record repair, or pilot was performed.
    • Existing canonical identities, words, metadata, formatting, historical docket strings, other trunk counts, and README totals remain unchanged. Broader reconciliation belongs to #611.
    • No formatter, framework, alternate generator, canonical registry, or automated editorial decision was added.

    Verification performed

    • PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 python3 scripts/test_presentation_qa.py: 24 tests passed, with adversarial subcases and a byte-for-byte read-only Git fixture check.
    • PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 python3 scripts/test_ensure_boris.py: 13 tests passed.
    • PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 python3 scripts/test_relationship_repair.py: passed.
    • Python syntax and CI wiring checks passed; validate, publish-export, aggregate ci, and the Boris validation commands remain intact.
    • ./bin/validate_graph.sh: passed with pinned Boris; graph diagnostics, Cantilever compilation, verse residue checks, zero duplicate HTML IDs, and byte-for-byte publication certification passed. No compiler blocker remained.
    • ./scripts/filed-publish.sh: passed with zero relationship findings, 2,784 canonical relationships across 1,332 records, recovery consistency, and valid UTF-8 llms.txt. Generated report changes and outputs are excluded.
    • Reviewed compiled HTML articles and resolving navigation/anchors for /changelog/2026-10-06-presentation-qa-guardrails.html (19 links), /changelog.html (78 links), and unchanged /changelog/2026-10-06-presentation-qa-baseline.html (19 links).
    • Live desktop/mobile review was blocked by a missing embedded-browser tab (tab_gone); recovery was denied with Blocked CDP method: Target.createTarget. Static HTML checks are the fallback, not a claimed rendered or screenshot review.

    Unresolved follow-up

    • The maintainer must approve the check before pilot release under #610. A structural pass cannot certify reading or editorial judgment.
    • Remote CI and independent review remain required before merge. #611's reconciliation gate remains separate.
