Sprint 9.6 Engineering Log

Program Context

• Phase: Phase 3
• Sprint: Sprint 9.6
• Status: Completed
• Primary Architecture Layers: Orchestration Pipeline, Reporting / Compliance, Telemetry Ingestion

Architectural Intent

Deliver operator-facing control and visibility surfaces while preserving secure API boundaries and integration portability.

Implementation Detail

UI architecture contracts, Next.js web foundation, auth and dashboard experiences, telemetry/findings/evidence routes, secure action endpoints, and admin TUI command workflows were implemented.

Security and Control Posture

• AAA scope and authorization boundaries are enforced according to current orchestrator policy.
• Telemetry and audit events are expected to remain structured, attributable, and export-ready.
• Integration interfaces are maintained as loosely coupled contracts to preserve VectorVue interoperability.

QA and Validation Evidence

Unit/component/E2E web test scaffolding plus command-level TUI QA coverage were added; Python-side TUI QA suite passes, while web dependency bootstrap may be environment-blocked.

Risk Register

Primary risk was UI test dependency volatility in restricted environments; mitigated through explicit blocker evidence capture in roadmap/kanban.

Forward Linkage

Sprint 9.7 focused on container hardening and enterprise security posture.
