Stabilizing Browser CI by Testing the Vite Production Build
Run Playwright against a fresh Vite production preview so browser CI verifies the built assets intended for release instead of depending on development-time source-module delivery.
Budgeting the Real First-Load Dependency Graph of a Vite SPA
A Vite manifest can turn an SPA's real first-load dependency closure into a gzip budget, catching regressions that total build size and single-chunk checks miss.
Handing Off Automation Ownership Without Losing Recovery Evidence
A safe automation handoff separates live authority, recovery evidence, retired execution paths, and disposable local state before anything is removed.
Safely Revising Completed Jobs with a Fail-Closed State Machine
How an explicit revision lifecycle can reopen a completed external-delivery job without duplicating remote objects or trusting stale review evidence.
Pin Policy Snapshots Before Long-Running Automation Executes
How versioned policy snapshots keep active jobs and retries reproducible while new rules roll out prospectively.
Preventing CI Notification Storms on High-Churn State Branches
How to keep required repository checks meaningful when an automation branch frequently commits heartbeats, checkpoints, and other run state.
Context-Aware Content Policy Gates: Separating Blockers from Hash-Bound Advisories
How a content pipeline reduced keyword false positives while keeping transaction guidance blocked and making non-blocking review signals tamper-evident.
Keeping Hashes, QA, and Capability Certifications Consistent After Reassembly
A derived artifact can pass local checks while downstream QA and capability records still point to an older file. This article shows how to propagate identity changes through the full attestation graph.
Making AI Actors More Believable with Enforceable Production Checks
How reviewed fictional actors, actions driven by visible causes, pre-generation frame review, model routing by shot importance, and file hashes make realism checks repeatable and version-specific.
Safe Edge-Worker Fallbacks for Missing Runtime Bindings
An edge deployment where basic HTTP checks passed but browser navigation returned 500 until optional cache and image capabilities gained tested fallback behavior.
Migrating a Legacy TMS with a Capability Matrix and Real Smoke Tests
A legacy transportation-system migration organized around capability mapping, end-to-end business flows, idempotency, and runtime verification.
