Jon Chery 7a60b35b7a docs(P00): clarify v0.13 — 7 decisions resolved (D-248..D-254)
All clarifications resolved at full autonomy:
- D-248: v0.13 minor (not v1.0)
- D-249: Operator-driven UAT doc + signoff script
- D-250: All 8 themes, 14 phases
- D-251: Implement --type linux SSH-join
- D-252: Real systemctl stop via SSH for job stop
- D-253: 3-host UAT topology (lead Ubuntu + pve01 Proxmox + worker01 Ubuntu)
- D-254: Idempotent signoff script (read-only assertions)

# CLARIFY v0.13: Production Hardening Round 2 + UAT Plan
**Status**: resolved (full autonomy, 2026-08-07). All 7 clarifications
resolved with the operator's locked decisions (D-248..D-254). No open
questions remain for Phase 0. The `--ideate` flag was passed; three deep
codebase sweeps drove the requirements.
## Resolved clarifications
### C1 — Milestone version (resolved)
**Question**: v0.12 is complete; the v1.0.0 tag is deferred for UAT. Is
this hardening round v1.0 (the UAT gate) or a minor v0.13?
**Decision**: **v0.13 (minor, not v1.0).** The v1.0.0 production-ready
tag stays deferred for post-v0.13 UAT signoff, exactly as v0.12's PRD
specified. v0.13 is a minor feature milestone. Per-phase tags run on
the previous minor's patch line (v0.12.x): P0 -> `v0.12.0`, P01 ->
`v0.12.1`, ..., final phase patch = `v0.12.13` = the v0.13 milestone
release (no separate `v0.13.0` tag, per feature-milestone rule).
**Affected**: config.json milestone field, all tag computation.
### C2 — UAT validation mechanism (resolved)
**Question**: How should the "final command/script for validation and
signoff" work? This is the v1.0 gate artifact.
**Decision**: **Operator-driven `docs/uat.md` + `scripts/uat-signoff.sh`
assertions.** `docs/uat.md` walks the operator through building the
cluster by hand (fresh Ubuntu server -> Proxmox host -> Ubuntu worker ->
full stack -> migrate between hosts). `scripts/uat-signoff.sh` then
queries the live cluster and asserts each claim (nodes, jobs, drift,
audit chain, ACL enforcement, seal, metrics, etc.) — exit 0 only if all
~35 assertions pass. The operator runs it, pastes output back to the CI
agent, which verifies and cuts v1.0.0.
**Affected REQs**: REQ-162, REQ-163.
### C3 — Hardening phase scope (resolved)
**Question**: I found 24 concrete gaps grouped into 8 themes. Which
scope?
**Decision**: **All 8 themes, 14 phases.** "No limit on phases" per
operator. Three deep sweeps (security, reliability, feature/doc)
expanded the gap count to ~60. The plan covers all critical/high/medium
findings. 9 low-severity residual risks are documented and accepted.
**Affected**: 15 new requirements (REQ-149..REQ-163), 14 phases.
### C4 — Ubuntu worker onboarding (resolved)
**Question**: The UAT plan must onboard a Proxmox host AND another
Ubuntu worker. The codebase has `--type linux` reserved but
unimplemented. How should Ubuntu worker onboarding work?
**Decision**: **Implement `--type linux` SSH-join as part of
hardening.** Proxmox stays `--type proxmox`. Worker onboarding becomes
first-class. `peer-setup.go` is kept as a documented fallback.
**Affected REQs**: REQ-161.
### C5 — `job stop` semantics (resolved)
**Question**: `job stop` is currently a soft-stop (DB status update
only, doesn't signal the process). Implement real `systemctl stop` via
SSH, or rename to `job mark-stopped`?
**Decision**: **Implement real `systemctl stop` via SSH.** Honest
semantics matching the `job restart` pattern. The UAT plan assumes stop
actually stops.
**Affected REQs**: REQ-158.
### C6 — UAT cluster topology (resolved)
**Question**: What 3-host shape should the UAT plan use?
**Decision**: **3 hosts: lead Ubuntu 22.04 + pve01 (Proxmox VE 8/9) +
worker01 (Ubuntu 22.04).** The lead is where `orca init` runs (operator
laptop or VM). Minimal topology covering both node types + migrate-
between-hosts.
**Affected REQs**: REQ-162.
### C7 — UAT signoff script re-runnable? (resolved)
**Question**: Should `scripts/uat-signoff.sh` be idempotent/re-runnable
or single-shot?
**Decision**: **Idempotent — read + non-mutating assertions only.**
Safe to run multiple times against the same cluster. Only `doctor`,
`list`, `--dry-run`, and similar read-only operations. The operator can
iterate.
**Affected REQs**: REQ-163.
## No open questions remain
All 7 clarifications resolved at full autonomy
(autonomy.level=full, workflow.no_hitl=true). The operator confirmed
decisions D-248..D-254 during the planning conversation. Proceed to
RESEARCH.
