Every CLI option that can carry a secret gets a `--<name>-file <path|->`
sibling ('-' reads stdin), so the value stays out of the process list and
shell history: --password-file (global), --primary-config-file /
--backup-config-file (data-connection create|update), --auth-config-file
(external-system create|update), --connection-string-file (db-connection
create|update), --credentials-file (notification smtp create|update) and
--auth-token-file (notification sms create|update). Follows the existing
--config-file convention; `@path` is avoided because System.CommandLine
expands @-tokens as response files.
The value is read at parse time; a missing/unreadable/empty source, or '-'
on a terminal stdin, is a parse error naming option + path only, never the
content. Inline and file forms are mutually exclusive, at most one option
may read stdin, and one trailing line break is stripped. Inline forms keep
working.
docker/seed-sites.sh and docker-env2/seed-sites.sh now write the MxGateway
config (windev gateway key) to a mode-600 temp file removed by an EXIT trap
and pass --primary-config-file; seed-flow-outbound-demo.sh pipes its rig
connection string via --connection-string-file -. CLI README (new "Secrets
from a file or stdin" section + per-command tables), Component-CLI.md and
both docker READMEs updated.

Comment/XML-doc changes only, no code logic:
- strip project-tracking references (WP*, P*-*, row-NN, #NN, Task N) from
comments, keeping the explanatory rationale
- add missing summaries, <param>, <returns>, <typeparam> and <inheritdoc/>
- replace misused <inheritdoc/> with real docs; where <inheritdoc/> was
combined with useful remarks, move the rationale into // comments
- drop stale replicationActor <param> on DeploymentManagerActor ctor
Remaining 5 are false positives (CWE-1236 x2, failures-1, year-0001, M365).
Build 0 errors / 0 warnings.
Remove project bookkeeping citations from shipped code comments across the
solution: hyphenated task IDs (WP-14, StoreAndForward-025), milestone/task/
issue refs (M3, Task 4, Audit Log #23, #21), Bundle X task-bundle labels,
and C/D/K/S/T phase labels.
Comment text only — no code logic, string/log literals, or XML-doc structure
changed. Genuine descriptions are preserved (only the citation is stripped),
and technical lookalikes are retained (UTF-8, SHA-256, T00:00:00, M365,
UTC-5, pre-C4/pre-C5 schema versions). Flagged by the new CommentChecker
TaskReferenceInComment / TrackingReferenceInComment checks plus targeted
grep passes; full solution builds clean, append-only guard tests pass.
Closes the four remaining items in the 2026-06-24 template-inheritance/CLI
follow-up tracker.
#4 — CLI `instance set-bindings` can now set DataSourceReferenceOverride.
`--bindings` accepts an optional 3rd element per entry:
[attributeName, dataConnectionId, dataSourceReferenceOverride]. A string
sets the override; a JSON null or an omitted 3rd element leaves it unset
(template default). TryParseBindings accepts 2- or 3-element entries and
rejects a non-string/non-null 3rd element or 4+ elements with a clean
error. Previously the CLI sent the override as null and silently wiped any
existing one (only a raw POST /management could set it).
#5 — `template update` is partial, not full-replace (fixed server-side so all
clients benefit). UpdateTemplateAsync now uses leave-unchanged semantics:
a null description keeps the stored value (pass "" to clear); a null
parentTemplateId keeps the existing parent. Parent stays immutable — a
non-null differing value is still rejected — but omitting --parent-id is
now a no-op instead of failing every derived-template update.
#6 — compact `template list`/`get` table output + `--detail`. Table output is
now id/name/description/parent/derived + member counts (#attrs/#alarms/
#scripts/#comps/#nativeAlarms) via TemplateTableProjection, fed through a
new optional tableProjector seam on CommandHelpers. `--detail` restores the
full dump. JSON output is left untouched (always full) so machine consumers
are unaffected — the projector only runs on the table path.
#8 — structured deploy-time validation error. New ValidationResult.SummarizeErrors()
(Commons) returns a grouped, capped summary: leading total count, one line
per ValidationCategory, and a per-module rollup (canonical name up to its
last dot) with counts + "... and N more module(s)" caps. DeploymentService
uses it for the "Pre-deployment validation failed" message and logs the full
per-entry list via LogWarning. Replaces the flat semicolon-joined dump that
became a wall of text for instances with 50-194 unbound attributes.
Tests: +8 Commons (SummarizeErrors), +8 CLI (4 binding 3-element / 4 table
projection), +2 net TemplateEngine (partial-update). Affected suites green:
Commons 587, CLI 341, TemplateEngine 447, DeploymentManager 101,
ManagementService 230, CentralUI 866; full solution builds 0/0.
Docs: Component-DeploymentManager.md "Validation Error Reporting"; CLI README
(set-bindings 3-element form, template update leave-unchanged, list/get
--detail); UpdateTemplateCommand doc; known-issues tracker #4/#5/#6/#8 resolved
(all 8 items now closed).
Resolve all 622 issues flagged by the enhanced CommentChecker: add missing
<returns> tags (incl. the standard phrasing on non-generic Task methods),
add missing <summary> tags, and replace misused/redundant <inheritdoc/> on
members that override or implement nothing with real documentation.
Documentation-only — no behavior change; solution builds clean.
Renames the 13 SCADALINK_* runtime env vars → SCADABRIDGE_*, the ScadaLink__
.NET config keys → ScadaBridge__, the stale ScadaLink.Host.exe assembly name
→ ZB.MOM.WW.ScadaBridge.Host.exe, the scadalink_app SQL login → scadabridge_app,
and residual identifiers/comments/docs. Migration records (prior rename
tooling/design, DB-rename helper, this scrub script) carved out.
Adds tools/scrub-scadalink-refs.sh.
