---

2026-05-13 — Sprint 16: Medium/Low hardening (final-master-plan)

• Watch-DiskSpace.ps1: Event Log source renamed CI-DiskAlert → CI-DiskSpaceAlert (aligned with task name registered by Register-CIScheduledTasks.ps1).
• Watch-RunnerHealth.ps1: maintenance flag support — if F:\CI\State\runner-maintenance.flag exists, restart logic is skipped entirely.
• Invoke-CIJob.ps1:
  • New WebhookUrl parameter (default '').
  • TemplatePath sanity check: Write-Warning if not under F:\CI\Templates\.
  • 90-minute duration warning: Start-Job fires [WARNING] webhook after 5400 s; cancelled in finally if the build completes first.
• BEST-PRACTICES.md section 11: VMware HGFS shared folder write semantics, cache-poisoning risk model, safe-use rules for UseSharedCache, and cache invalidation procedure.
• Validate-HostState.ps1 (new): checks SSH key ACLs, Credential Manager target accessibility, CI directory structure, and vmrun.exe availability.
• Validate-SetupState.ps1 docblock: HTTP/Basic → HTTPS/Basic, port 5986.
• TEST-PLAN-v1.3-to-HEAD.md §3.6: benchmark JSONL field names corrected to match actual script output (cloneSec, startSec, ipSec, winrmSec, destroySec, totalBootSec).
• CI-FLOW.md failure table: "collects partial artifacts" replaced with accurate description of Get-GuestDiagnostics post-failure collection.
• final-master-plan.md: all Medium and most Low items marked done.

---

2026-05-12 — Sprint 15b: Hardcoded path fix

• action.yml + runner/config.yaml: replaced hardcoded N:\Code\... script path with GITEA_CI_SCRIPT_ROOT env var injected by the runner. act_runner restarted with labels windows-build:host dotnet:host msbuild:host linux-build:host.

---

2026-05-11 — Sprint 15: Rename Setup-* → Install-CIToolchain-*

Renamed three guest-side provisioning scripts and updated all references across 14 files:

Old name	New name
template/Setup-WinBuild2025.ps1	template/Install-CIToolchain-WinBuild2025.ps1
template/Setup-WinBuild2022.ps1	template/Install-CIToolchain-WinBuild2022.ps1
template/Setup-LinuxBuild2404.sh	template/Install-CIToolchain-Linux2404.sh

References updated in: Prepare-WinBuild2025/2022.ps1, Prepare-LinuxBuild2404.ps1, Deploy-WinBuild2025/2022.ps1, Deploy-LinuxBuild2404.ps1, README.md, TODO.md, docs/WINDOWS-TEMPLATE-SETUP.md, docs/LINUX-TEMPLATE-SETUP.md, docs/TEST-PLAN-v1.3-to-HEAD.md, gitea/actions/local-ci-build/action.yml.

---

2026-05-11 — Sprint 14: §6.4 Build matrix + §6.5 Secret injection

§6.4 — build-ns7zip.yml rewritten with matrix strategy target: [windows, linux]. Separate artifact dirs; fail-fast: false; composite action used for both targets.

§6.5 — ExtraGuestEnv [hashtable] added to Invoke-CIJob.ps1 and Invoke-RemoteBuild.ps1:

• Windows: [System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable in session ScriptBlock.
• Linux: export KEY='val'; prefix before build command.
• action.yml: extra-guest-env-json input (JSON object), never logged.

---

2026-05-11 — Sprint 13: §6.2 Composite Action

action.yml (gitea/actions/local-ci-build/action.yml) fully implemented. Inputs: build-command, artifact-source, submodules, guest-os, use-git-clone, configuration, template-path, snapshot-name, artifact-name, artifact-retention-days, extra-guest-env-json, use-shared-cache, job-id-suffix, repo-url, webhook-url. Outputs: artifact-path, artifact-name. Artifact upload included; no orchestration logic required in calling repos.

---

2026-05-10 — Sprint 12: §6.1 Linux Build VM

End-to-end Linux build pipeline implemented:

• Deploy-LinuxBuild2404.ps1: Ubuntu 24.04 cloud image deployment via VMware vmrun.
• Prepare-LinuxBuild2404.ps1: SSH key injection, CI dirs, IP reporting service.
• Install-CIToolchain-Linux2404.sh: GCC, G++, Clang, CMake, Ninja, Python 3, Git, 7-Zip.
• scripts/_Transport.psm1: Invoke-SshCommand, Copy-SshItem, Test-SshReady with StrictHostKeyChecking and KnownHostsFile parametrisation.
• E2E verified: nsis7z.dll 2272 KB on parity with Windows build.

---

2026-05-10 — Sprint 11: §6.6 Tier-2 Toolchain (WinBuild2025)

Tier-1 (Step 11) and Tier-2 (Step 12) added to Install-CIToolchain-WinBuild2025.ps1:

Tool	Version
Git for Windows	2.54.0.windows.1
7-Zip	26.01
PowerShell 7	7.6.1
NSIS	3.12
gh CLI	2.92.0
CMake	3.31.6
Node.js LTS	22.14.0
WiX Toolset	4.0.5
Sysinternals	latest
vcpkg	HEAD

All tools hash-pinned (SHA256), path-extended machine-wide, validated via where.exe in Assert-Step final gate.

---

2026-05-10 — Sprint 10: §7 Refactor Deploy ↔ Setup

Separated OS hardening (Deploy responsibility) from CI toolchain setup (Install-CIToolchain responsibility). Setup Steps 1/3/4b/5b/5c converted to assertion-only (Assert-Step).

New scripts: Validate-DeployState.ps1, Validate-SetupState.ps1. WU lifecycle strategy B: Deploy sets GPO NoAutoUpdate; Install-CIToolchain runs WU then disables wuauserv/UsoSvc permanently.

---

2026-05-10 — Sprint 9: §3.3 In-VM Git Clone

-UseGitClone switch added to Invoke-CIJob.ps1 and Invoke-RemoteBuild.ps1.

• Skips host git clone + zip + WinRM transfer overhead.
• PAT injected at runtime, never persisted in snapshot.
• E2E result: 34 s saving, 25.7% reduction vs baseline on nsis-plugin-ns7zip.

---
