Phase 6 — Draft 4 implementation plans covering v2 unimplemented features + adversarial review + adjustments. After drivers were paused per user direction, audited the v2 plan for features documented-but-unshipped and identified four coherent tracks that had no implementation plan at all. Each plan follows the docs/v2/implementation/phase-*.md template (DRAFT status, branch name, Stream A-E task breakdown, Compliance Checks, Risks, Completion Checklist). docs/v2/implementation/phase-6-1-resilience-and-observability.md (243 lines) covers Polly resilience pipelines wired to every capability interface, Tier A/B/C runtime enforcement (memory watchdog generalized beyond Galaxy, scheduled recycle per decision #67, wedge detection), health endpoints on :4841, structured Serilog with correlation IDs, LiteDB local-cache fallback per decision #36. phase-6-2-authorization-runtime.md (145 lines) wires ACL enforcement on every OPC UA Read/Write/Subscribe/Call path + LDAP-group-to-admin-role grants per decisions #105 and #129 -- runtime permission-trie evaluator over the 6-level Cluster/Namespace/UnsArea/UnsLine/Equipment/Tag hierarchy, per-session cache invalidated on generation-apply + LDAP-cache expiry. phase-6-3-redundancy-runtime.md (165 lines) lands the non-transparent warm/hot redundancy runtime per decisions #79-85: dynamic ServiceLevel node, ServerUriArray peer broadcast, mid-apply dip via sp_PublishGeneration hook, operator-driven role transition (no auto-election -- plan remains explicit about what's out of scope). phase-6-4-admin-ui-completion.md (178 lines) closes Phase 1 Stream E completion-checklist items that never landed: UNS drag-reorder + impact preview, Equipment CSV import, 5-identifier search, draft-diff viewer enhancements, OPC 40010 _base Identification field exposure per decisions #138-139. Each plan then got a Codex adversarial-review pass (codex mcp tool, read-only sandbox, synchronous). Reviews explicitly targeted decision-log conflicts, API-shape assumptions, unbounded blast radius, under-specified state transitions, and testing holes. Appended 'Adversarial Review — 2026-04-19' section to each plan with numbered findings (severity / finding / why-it-matters / adjustment accepted). Review surfaced real substantive issues that the initial drafts glossed over: Phase 6.1 auto-retry conflicting with decisions #44-45 no-auto-write-retry rule; Phase 6.1 per-driver-instance pipeline breaking decision #35's per-device isolation; Phase 6.1 recycle/watchdog at Tier A/B breaching decisions #73-74 Tier-C-only constraint; Phase 6.2 conflating control-plane LdapGroupRoleMapping with data-plane ACL grants; Phase 6.2 missing Browse enforcement entirely; Phase 6.2 subscription re-authorization policy unresolved between create-time-only and per-publish; Phase 6.3 ServiceLevel=0 colliding with OPC UA Part 5 Maintenance semantics; Phase 6.3 ServerUriArray excluding self (spec-bug); Phase 6.3 apply-window counter race on cancellation; Phase 6.3 client cutover for Kepware/Aveva OI Gateway is unverified hearsay; Phase 6.4 stale UNS impact preview overwriting concurrent draft edits; Phase 6.4 identifier contract drifting from admin-ui.md canonical set (ZTag/MachineCode/SAPID/EquipmentId/EquipmentUuid, not ZTag/SAPID/UniqueId/Alias1/Alias2); Phase 6.4 CSV import atomicity internally contradictory (single txn vs chunked inserts); Phase 6.4 OPC 40010 field list not matching decision #139. Every finding has an adjustment in the plan doc -- plans are meant to be executable from the next session with the critique already baked in rather than a clean draft that would run into the same issues at implementation time. Codex thread IDs cited in each plan's review section for reproducibility. Pure documentation PR -- no code changes. Plans are DRAFT status; each becomes its own implementation phase with its own entry-gate + exit-gate when business prioritizes.

+# Phase 6.1 — Resilience & Observability Runtime
+
+> **Status**: DRAFT — implementation plan for a cross-cutting phase that was never formalised. The v2 `plan.md` specifies Polly, Tier A/B/C protections, structured logging, and local-cache fallback by decision; none are wired end-to-end.
+>
+> **Branch**: `v2/phase-6-1-resilience-observability`
+> **Estimated duration**: 3 weeks
+> **Predecessor**: Phase 5 (drivers) — partial; S7 + OPC UA Client shipped, AB/TwinCAT/FOCAS paused
+> **Successor**: Phase 6.2 (Authorization runtime)
+
+## Phase Objective
+
+Land the cross-cutting runtime protections + operability features that `plan.md` + `driver-stability.md` specify by decision but that no driver-phase actually wires. End-state: every driver goes through the same Polly resilience layer, health endpoints render the live driver fleet, structured logs carry per-request correlation IDs, and the config substrate survives a central DB outage via a LiteDB local cache.
+
+Closes these gaps flagged in the 2026-04-19 audit:
+
+1. Polly v8 resilience pipelines wired to every `IDriver` capability (no-op per-driver today; Galaxy has a hand-rolled `CircuitBreaker` only).
+2. Tier A/B/C enforcement at runtime — `driver-stability.md` §2–4 and decisions #63–73 define memory watchdog, bounded queues, scheduled recycle, wedge detection; `MemoryWatchdog` exists only inside `Driver.Galaxy.Host`.
+3. Health endpoints (`/healthz`, `/readyz`) on `OtOpcUa.Server`.
+4. Structured Serilog with per-request correlation IDs (driver instance, OPC UA session, IPC call).
+5. LiteDB local cache + Polly retry + fallback on central-DB outage (decision #36).
+
+## Scope — What Changes
+
+| Concern | Change |
+|---------|--------|
+| `Core` → new `Core.Resilience` sub-namespace | Shared Polly pipeline builder (`DriverResiliencePipelines`), per-capability policy (Read / Write / Subscribe / HistoryRead / Discover / Probe / Alarm). One pipeline per driver instance; driver-options decide tuning. |
+| Every `IDriver*` consumer in the server | Wrap capability calls in the shared pipeline. Policy composition order: timeout → retry (with jitter, bounded by capability-specific `MaxRetries`) → circuit breaker (per driver instance, opens on N consecutive failures) → bulkhead (ceiling on in-flight requests per driver). |
+| `Core` → new `Core.Stability` sub-namespace | Generalise `MemoryWatchdog` (`Driver.Galaxy.Host`) into `DriverMemoryWatchdog` consuming `IDriver.GetMemoryFootprint()`. Add `ScheduledRecycleScheduler` (decision #67) for weekly/time-of-day recycle. Add `WedgeDetector` that flips a driver to Faulted when no successful Read in N × PublishingInterval. |
+| `DriverTypeRegistry` | Each driver type registers its `DriverTier` {A, B, C}. Tier C drivers must also advertise their out-of-process topology; the registry enforces invariants (Tier C has a `Proxy` + `Host` pair). |
+| `OtOpcUa.Server` → new Minimal API endpoints | `/healthz` (liveness — process alive + config DB reachable or LiteDB cache warm), `/readyz` (readiness — every driver instance reports `DriverState.Healthy`). JSON bodies cite individual driver health per instance. |
+| Serilog configuration | Centralize enrichers in `OtOpcUa.Server/Observability/LogContextEnricher.cs`. Every driver call runs inside a `LogContext.PushProperty` scope with {DriverInstanceId, DriverType, CapabilityName, CorrelationId (UA RequestHandle or internal GUID)}. Sink config stays rolling-file per CLAUDE.md; JSON-formatted output added alongside plain-text so SIEM ingestion works. |
+| `Configuration` project | Add `LiteDbConfigCache` adapter. Wrap EF Core queries in a Polly pipeline: timeout (2 s) → retry (3×, jittered) → fallback-to-cache. Cache refresh on successful DB query + after `sp_PublishGeneration`. Cache lives at `%ProgramData%/OtOpcUa/config-cache/<cluster-id>.db` per node. |
+| `DriverHostStatus` entity | Extend to carry `LastCircuitBreakerOpenUtc`, `ConsecutiveFailures`, `CurrentBulkheadDepth`, `LastRecycleUtc`. Admin `/hosts` page reads these. |
+
+## Scope — What Does NOT Change
+
+| Item | Reason |
+|------|--------|
+| Driver wire protocols | Resilience is a server-side wrapper; individual drivers don't see Polly. Their existing retry logic (ModbusTcpTransport reconnect, SessionReconnectHandler) stays in place as inner layers. |
+| Config DB schema | LiteDB cache is a read-only mirror; no new central tables except `DriverHostStatus` column additions. |
+| OPC UA wire behavior visible to clients | Health endpoints live on a separate HTTP port (4841 by convention); the OPC UA server on 4840 is unaffected. |
+| The four 2026-04-13 Galaxy stability findings | Already closed in Phase 2. Phase 6.1 *generalises* the pattern, doesn't re-fix Galaxy. |
+| Driver-layer SafeHandle usage | Existing Galaxy `SafeMxAccessHandle` + Modbus `TcpClient` disposal stay — they're driver-internal, not part of the cross-cutting layer. |
+
+## Entry Gate Checklist
+
+- [ ] Phases 0–5 exit gates cleared (or explicitly deferred with task reference)
+- [ ] `driver-stability.md` §2–4 re-read; decisions #63–73 + #34–36 re-skimmed
+- [ ] Polly v8 NuGet available (`Microsoft.Extensions.Resilience` + `Polly.Core`) — verify package restore before task breakdown
+- [ ] LiteDB 5.x NuGet confirmed MIT + actively maintained
+- [ ] Existing drivers catalogued: Galaxy.Proxy, Modbus, S7, OpcUaClient — confirm test counts baseline so the resilience layer doesn't regress any
+- [ ] Serilog configuration inventory: locate every `Log.ForContext` call site that will need `LogContext` rewrap
+- [ ] Admin `/hosts` page's current `DriverHostStatus` consumption reviewed so the schema extensions don't break it
+
+## Task Breakdown
+
+### Stream A — Resilience layer (1 week)
+
+1. **A.1** Add `Polly.Core` + `Microsoft.Extensions.Resilience` to `Core`. Build `DriverResiliencePipelineBuilder` that composes Timeout → Retry (exponential backoff + jitter, capability-specific max retries) → CircuitBreaker (consecutive-failure threshold; half-open probe) → Bulkhead (max in-flight per driver instance). Unit tests cover each policy in isolation + composed pipeline.
+2. **A.2** `DriverResilienceOptions` record bound from `DriverInstance.ResilienceConfig` JSON column (new nullable). Defaults encoded per-tier: Tier A (OPC UA Client, S7) — 3 retries, 2 s timeout, 5-failure breaker; Tier B (Modbus) — same except 4 s timeout; Tier C (Galaxy) — 1 retry (inner supervisor handles restart), 10 s timeout, circuit-breaker trips but doesn't kill the driver (the Proxy supervisor already handles that).
+3. **A.3** `DriverCapabilityInvoker<T>` wraps every `IDriver*` method call. Existing server-side dispatch (whatever currently calls `driver.ReadAsync`) routes through the invoker. Policy injection via DI.
+4. **A.4** Remove the hand-rolled `CircuitBreaker` + `Backoff` from `Driver.Galaxy.Proxy/Supervisor/` — replaced by the shared layer. Keep `HeartbeatMonitor` (different concern: IPC liveness, not data-path resilience).
+5. **A.5** Unit tests: per-policy, per-composition. Integration test: Modbus driver under a FlakeyTransport that fails 5×, succeeds on 6th; invoker surfaces the eventual success. Bench: no-op overhead < 1% under nominal load.
+
+### Stream B — Tier A/B/C stability runtime (1 week, can parallel with Stream A after A.1)
+
+1. **B.1** `Core.Abstractions` → `DriverTier` enum {A, B, C}. Extend `DriverTypeRegistry` to require `DriverTier` at registration. Existing driver types get their tier stamped (Galaxy = C, Modbus = B, S7 = B, OpcUaClient = A).
+2. **B.2** Generalise `DriverMemoryWatchdog` (lift from `Driver.Galaxy.Host/MemoryWatchdog.cs`). Tier-specific thresholds: A = 256 MB RSS soft / 512 MB hard, B = 512 MB soft / 1 GB hard, C = 1 GB soft / 2 GB hard (decision #70 hybrid multiplier + floor). Soft threshold → log + metric; hard threshold → mark driver Faulted + trigger recycle.
+3. **B.3** `ScheduledRecycleScheduler` (decision #67): each driver instance can opt-in to a weekly recycle at a configured cron. Recycle = `ShutdownAsync` → `InitializeAsync`. Tier C drivers get the Proxy-side recycle; Tier A/B recycle in-process.
+4. **B.4** `WedgeDetector`: polling thread per driver instance; if `LastSuccessfulRead` older than `WedgeThreshold` (default 5 × PublishingInterval, minimum 60 s) AND driver state is `Healthy`, flag as wedged → force `ReinitializeAsync`. Prevents silent dead-subscriptions.
+5. **B.5** Tests: watchdog unit tests drive synthetic allocation; scheduler uses a virtual clock; wedge detector tests use a fake IClock + driver stub.
+
+### Stream C — Health endpoints + structured logging (4 days)
+
+1. **C.1** `OtOpcUa.Server/Observability/HealthEndpoints.cs` — Minimal API on a second Kestrel binding (default `http://+:4841`). `/healthz` reports process uptime + config-DB reachability (or cache-warm). `/readyz` enumerates `DriverInstance` rows + reports each driver's `DriverHealth.State`; returns 503 if ANY driver is Faulted. JSON body per `docs/v2/acl-design.md` §"Operator Dashboards" shape.
+2. **C.2** `LogContextEnricher` installed at Serilog config time. Every driver-capability call site wraps its body in `using (LogContext.PushProperty("DriverInstanceId", id)) using (LogContext.PushProperty("CorrelationId", correlationId))`. Correlation IDs: reuse OPC UA `RequestHeader.RequestHandle` when in-flight; otherwise generate `Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N")[..12]`.
+3. **C.3** Add JSON-formatted Serilog sink alongside the existing rolling-file plain-text sink so SIEMs (Splunk, Datadog) can ingest without a regex parser. Sink switchable via `Serilog:WriteJson` appsetting.
+4. **C.4** Integration test: boot server, issue Modbus read, assert log line contains `DriverInstanceId` + `CorrelationId` structured fields.
+
+### Stream D — Config DB LiteDB fallback (1 week)
+
+1. **D.1** `LiteDbConfigCache` adapter. Wraps `ConfigurationDbContext` queries that are safe to serve stale (cluster membership, generation metadata, driver instance definitions, LDAP role mapping). Write-path queries (draft save, publish) bypass the cache and fail hard on DB outage.
+2. **D.2** Cache refresh strategy: refresh on every successful read (write-through-cache), full refresh after `sp_PublishGeneration` confirmation. Cache entries carry `CachedAtUtc`; served entries older than 24 h trigger a synthetic `Warning` log line so operators see stale data in effect.
+3. **D.3** Polly pipeline in `Configuration` project: EF Core query → retry 3× → fallback to cache. On fallback, driver state stays `Healthy` but a `UsingStaleConfig` flag on the cluster's health report flips true.
+4. **D.4** Tests: in-memory SQL Server failure injected via `TestContainers`-ish double; cache returns last-known values; Admin UI banners reflect `UsingStaleConfig`.
+
+### Stream E — Admin `/hosts` page refresh (3 days)
+
+1. **E.1** Extend `DriverHostStatus` schema with Stream A resilience columns. Generate EF migration.
+2. **E.2** `Admin/FleetStatusHub` SignalR hub pushes `LastCircuitBreakerOpenUtc` + `CurrentBulkheadDepth` + `LastRecycleUtc` on change.
+3. **E.3** `/hosts` Blazor page renders new columns; red badge if `ConsecutiveFailures > breakerThreshold / 2`.
+
+## Compliance Checks (run at exit gate)
+
+- [ ] **Polly coverage**: every `IDriver*` method call in the server dispatch layer routes through `DriverCapabilityInvoker`. Enforce via a Roslyn analyzer added to `Core.Abstractions` build (error on direct `IDriver.ReadAsync` calls outside the invoker).
+- [ ] **Tier registry**: every driver type registered in `DriverTypeRegistry` has a non-null `Tier`. Unit test walks the registry + asserts no gaps.
+- [ ] **Health contract**: `/healthz` + `/readyz` respond within 500 ms even with one driver Faulted.
+- [ ] **Structured log**: CI grep on `tests/` output asserts at least one log line contains `"DriverInstanceId"` + `"CorrelationId"` JSON fields.
+- [ ] **Cache fallback**: Integration test kills the SQL container mid-operation; driver health stays `Healthy`, `UsingStaleConfig` flips true.
+- [ ] No regression in existing test suites — `dotnet test ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx` count equal-or-greater than pre-Phase-6.1 baseline.
+
+## Risks and Mitigations
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|:----------:|:------:|------------|
+| Polly pipeline adds per-request latency on hot path | Medium | Medium | Benchmark Stream A.5 before merging; 1 % overhead budget; inline hot path short-circuits when retry count = 0 |
+| LiteDB cache diverges from central DB | Medium | High | Stale-data banner in Admin UI; `UsingStaleConfig` flag surfaced on `/readyz`; cache refresh on every successful DB round-trip; 24-hour synthetic warning |
+| Tier watchdog false-positive-kills a legitimate batch load | Low | High | Soft/hard threshold split; soft only logs; hard triggers recycle; thresholds configurable per-instance |
+| Wedge detector races with slow-but-healthy drivers | Medium | High | Minimum 60 s threshold; detector only activates if driver claims `Healthy`; add circuit-breaker feedback so rapid oscillation trips instead of thrashing |
+| Roslyn analyzer breaks external driver authors | Low | Medium | Release analyzer as warning-level initially; upgrade to error in Phase 6.1+1 after one release cycle |
+
+## Completion Checklist
+
+- [ ] Stream A: Polly shared pipeline + per-tier defaults + driver-capability invoker + tests
+- [ ] Stream B: Tier registry + generalised watchdog + scheduled recycle + wedge detector
+- [ ] Stream C: `/healthz` + `/readyz` + structured logging + JSON Serilog sink
+- [ ] Stream D: LiteDB cache + Polly fallback in Configuration
+- [ ] Stream E: Admin `/hosts` page refresh
+- [ ] Cross-cutting: `phase-6-1-compliance.ps1` exits 0; full solution `dotnet test` passes; exit-gate doc recorded
+
+## Adversarial Review — 2026-04-19 (Codex, thread `019da489-e317-7aa1-ab1f-6335e0be2447`)
+
+Plan substantially rewritten before implementation to address these findings. Each entry: severity · verdict · adjustment.
+
+1. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Auto-retry collides with decisions #44/#45 (no auto-write-retry; opt-in via `WriteIdempotent` + CAS). Pipeline now **capability-specific**: Read/HistoryRead/Discover/Probe/Alarm-subscribe all get retries; **Write does not** unless the tag metadata carries `WriteIdempotent=true`. New `WriteIdempotentAttribute` surfaces on `ModbusTagDefinition` / `S7TagDefinition` / etc.
+2. **Crit · ACCEPT** — "One pipeline per driver instance" breaks decision #35's per-device isolation. **Change**: pipeline key is `(DriverInstanceId, HostName)` not just `DriverInstanceId`. One dead PLC behind a multi-device Modbus driver no longer opens the breaker for healthy siblings.
+3. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Memory watchdog + scheduled recycle at Tier A/B breaches decisions #73/#74 (process-kill protections are Tier-C-only). **Change**: Stream B splits into two — `MemoryTracking` (all tiers, soft/hard thresholds log + surface to Admin `/hosts`; never kills) and `MemoryRecycle` (Tier C only, requires out-of-process topology). Tier A/B overrun paths escalate to Tier C via a future PR, not auto-kill.
+4. **High · ACCEPT** — Removing Galaxy's hand-rolled `CircuitBreaker` drops decision #68 host-supervision crash-loop protection. **Change**: keep `Driver.Galaxy.Proxy/Supervisor/CircuitBreaker.cs` + `Backoff.cs` — they guard the IPC *process* re-spawn, not the per-call data path. Data-path Polly is an orthogonal layer.
+5. **High · ACCEPT** — Roslyn analyzer targeting `IDriver` misses the hot paths (`IReadable.ReadAsync`, `IWritable.WriteAsync`, `ISubscribable.SubscribeAsync` etc.). **Change**: analyzer rule now matches every method on the capability interfaces; compliance doc enumerates the full call-site list.
+6. **High · ACCEPT** — `/healthz` + `/readyz` under-specified for degraded-running. **Change**: add a state-matrix sub-section explicitly covering `Unknown` (pre-init: `/readyz` 503), `Initializing` (503), `Healthy` (200), `Degraded` (200 with JSON body flagging the degraded driver; `/readyz` is OR across drivers), `Faulted` (503), plus cached-config-serving (`/healthz` returns 200 + `UsingStaleConfig: true` in JSON body).
+7. **High · ACCEPT** — `WedgeDetector` based on "no successful Read" false-fires on write-only subscriptions + idle systems. **Change**: wedge criteria now `(hasPendingWork AND noProgressIn > threshold)` where `hasPendingWork` comes from the Polly bulkhead depth + active MonitoredItem count. Idle driver stays Healthy.
+8. **High · ACCEPT** — LiteDB cache serving mixed-generation reads breaks publish atomicity. **Change**: cache is snapshot-per-generation. Each published generation writes a sealed snapshot into `<cache-root>/<cluster>/<generationId>.db`; reads serve the last-known-sealed generation and never mix. Central DB outage during a *publish* means that publish fails (write path doesn't use cache); reads continue from the prior sealed snapshot.
+9. **Med · ACCEPT** — `DriverHostStatus` schema conflates per-host connectivity with per-driver-instance resilience counters. **Change**: new `DriverInstanceResilienceStatus` table separate from `DriverHostStatus`. Admin `/hosts` joins both for display.
+10. **Med · ACCEPT** — Compliance says analyzer-error; risks say analyzer-warning. **Change**: phase 6.1 ships at **error** level (this phase is the gate); warning-mode option removed.
+11. **Med · ACCEPT** — Hardcoded per-tier MB bands ignore decision #70's `max(multiplier × baseline, baseline + floor)` formula with observed-baseline capture. **Change**: watchdog captures baseline at post-init plateau (median of first 5 min GetMemoryFootprint samples) + applies the hybrid formula. Tier constants now encode the multiplier + floor, not raw MB.
+12. **Med · ACCEPT** — Tests mostly cover happy path. **Change**: Stream A.5 adds negative tests for duplicate-write-replay-under-timeout; Stream B.5 adds false-wedge-on-idle-subscription + false-wedge-on-slow-historic-backfill; Stream D.4 adds mixed-generation cache test + corrupt-first-boot cache test.

+# Phase 6.2 — Authorization Runtime (ACL + LDAP grants)
+
+> **Status**: DRAFT — the v2 `plan.md` decision #129 + `acl-design.md` specify a 6-level permission-trie evaluator with `NodePermissions` bitmask grants, but no runtime evaluator exists. ACL tables are schematized but unread by the data path.
+>
+> **Branch**: `v2/phase-6-2-authorization-runtime`
+> **Estimated duration**: 2.5 weeks
+> **Predecessor**: Phase 6.1 (Resilience & Observability) — reuses the Polly pipeline for ACL-cache refresh retries
+> **Successor**: Phase 6.3 (Redundancy)
+
+## Phase Objective
+
+Wire ACL enforcement on every OPC UA Read / Write / Subscribe / Call path + LDAP group → admin role grants that the v2 plan specified but never ran. End-state: a user's effective permissions resolve through a per-session permission-trie over the 6-level `Cluster / Namespace / UnsArea / UnsLine / Equipment / Tag` hierarchy, cached per session, invalidated on generation-apply + LDAP group expiry.
+
+Closes these gaps:
+
+1. **Data-path ACL enforcement** — `NodeAcl` table + `NodePermissions` flags shipped; `NodeAclService.cs` present as a CRUD surface; no code consults ACLs at `Read`/`Write` time. OPC UA server answers everything to everyone.
+2. **`LdapGroupRoleMapping` for cluster-scoped admin grants** — decision #105 shipped as the *design*; admin roles are hardcoded (`FleetAdmin` / `ConfigEditor` / `ReadOnly`) with no cluster-scoping and no LDAP-to-grant table. Decision #105 explicitly lifts this from v2.1 into v2.0.
+3. **Explicit Deny pathway** — deferred to v2.1 (decision #129 note). Phase 6.2 ships *grants only*; `Deny` stays out.
+4. **Admin UI ACL grant editor** — `AclsTab.razor` exists but edits the now-unused `NodeAcl` table; needs to wire to the runtime evaluator + the new `LdapGroupRoleMapping` table.
+
+## Scope — What Changes
+
+| Concern | Change |
+|---------|--------|
+| `Configuration` project | New entity `LdapGroupRoleMapping { Id, LdapGroup, Role, ClusterId? (nullable = system-wide), IsSystemWide, GeneratedAtUtc }`. Migration. Admin CRUD. |
+| `Core` → new `Core.Authorization` sub-namespace | `IPermissionEvaluator` interface; concrete `PermissionTrieEvaluator` implementation loads ACLs + LDAP mappings from Configuration, builds a trie keyed on the 6-level scope hierarchy, evaluates a `(UserClaim[], NodeId, NodePermissions)` → `bool` decision in O(depth × group-count). |
+| `Core.Authorization` cache | `PermissionTrieCache` — one trie per `(ClusterId, GenerationId)`. Rebuilt on `sp_PublishGeneration` confirmation; served from memory thereafter. Per-session evaluator keeps a reference to the current trie + user's LDAP groups. |
+| OPC UA server dispatch | `OtOpcUa.Server/OpcUa/DriverNodeManager.cs` Read/Write/HistoryRead/MonitoredItem-create paths call `PermissionEvaluator.Authorize(session.Identity, nodeId, NodePermissions.Read)` etc. before delegating to the driver. Unauthorized returns `BadUserAccessDenied` (0x80210000) — not a silent no-op per corrections-doc B1. |
+| `LdapAuthService` (existing) | On cookie-auth success, resolves the user's LDAP groups via `LdapGroupService.GetMemberships` + loads the matching `LdapGroupRoleMapping` rows → produces a role-claim list + cluster-scope claim list. Stored on the auth cookie. |
+| Admin UI `AclsTab.razor` | Repoint edits at the new `NodeAclService` API that writes through to the same table the evaluator reads. Add a "test this permission" probe that runs a dummy evaluator against a chosen `(user, nodeId, action)` so ops can sanity-check grants before publishing a draft. |
+| Admin UI new tab `RoleGrantsTab.razor` | CRUD over `LdapGroupRoleMapping`. Per-cluster + system-wide grants. FleetAdmin only. |
+| Audit log | Every Grant/Revoke/Publish on `LdapGroupRoleMapping` or `NodeAcl` writes an `AuditLog` row with old/new state + user. |
+
+## Scope — What Does NOT Change
+
+| Item | Reason |
+|------|--------|
+| OPC UA authn | Already done (PR 19 LDAP user identity + Basic256Sha256 profile). Phase 6.2 is authorization only. |
+| Explicit `Deny` grants | Decision #129 note explicitly defers to v2.1. Default-deny + additive grants only. |
+| Driver-side `SecurityClassification` metadata | Drivers keep reporting `Operate` / `ViewOnly` / etc. — the evaluator uses them as *part* of the decision but doesn't replace them. |
+| Galaxy namespace (SystemPlatform kind) | UNS levels don't apply; evaluator treats Galaxy nodes as `Cluster → Namespace → Tag` (skip UnsArea/UnsLine/Equipment). |

+- [ ] Existing `NodeAcl` + `NodePermissions` flag enum audited; confirm bitmask flags match `acl-design.md` table
+- [ ] Existing `LdapAuthService` group-resolution code path traced end-to-end — confirm it already queries group memberships (we only need the caller to consume the result)
+- [ ] Test DB scenarios catalogued: two clusters, three LDAP groups per cluster, mixed grant shapes; captured as seed-data fixtures
+
+## Task Breakdown
+
+### Stream A — `LdapGroupRoleMapping` table + migration (3 days)
+
+1. **A.1** Entity + EF Core migration. Columns per §Scope table. Unique constraint on `(LdapGroup, ClusterId)` with null-tolerant comparer for the system-wide case. Index on `LdapGroup` for the hot-path lookup on auth.
+2. **A.2** `ILdapGroupRoleMappingService` CRUD. Wrap in the Phase 6.1 Polly pipeline (timeout → retry → fallback-to-cache).
+3. **A.3** Seed-data migration: preserve the current hardcoded `FleetAdmin` / `ConfigEditor` / `ReadOnly` mappings by seeding rows for the existing LDAP groups the dev box uses (`cn=fleet-admin,…`, `cn=config-editor,…`, `cn=read-only,…`). Op no-op migration for existing deployments.
+
+### Stream B — Permission-trie evaluator (1 week)
+
+1. **B.1** `IPermissionEvaluator.Authorize(IEnumerable<Claim> identity, NodeId nodeId, NodePermissions needed)` — returns `bool`. Phase 6.2 returns only `true` / `false`; v2.1 can widen to `Allow`/`Deny`/`Indeterminate` if Deny lands.
+2. **B.2** `PermissionTrieBuilder` builds the trie from `NodeAcl` + `LdapGroupRoleMapping` joined to the current generation's `UnsArea` + `UnsLine` + `Equipment` + `Tag` tables. One trie per `(ClusterId, GenerationId)` so rollback doesn't smear permissions across generations.
+3. **B.3** Trie node structure: `{ Level: enum, ScopeId: Guid, AllowedPermissions: NodePermissions, ChildrenByLevel: Dictionary<Guid, TrieNode> }`. Evaluation walks from Cluster → Namespace → UnsArea → UnsLine → Equipment → Tag, ORing allowed permissions at each level. Additive semantics: a grant at Cluster level cascades to every descendant tag.
+4. **B.4** `PermissionTrieCache` service scoped as singleton; exposes `GetTrieAsync(ClusterId, ct)` that returns the current-generation trie. Invalidated on `sp_PublishGeneration` via an in-process event bus; also on TTL expiry (24 h safety net).
+5. **B.5** Per-session cached evaluator: OPC UA Session authentication produces `UserAuthorizationState { ClusterId, LdapGroups[], Trie }`; cached on the session until session close or generation-apply.
+6. **B.6** Unit tests: trie-walk theory covering (a) Cluster-level grant cascades to tags, (b) Equipment-level grant doesn't leak to sibling Equipment, (c) multi-group union, (d) no-grant → deny, (e) Galaxy nodes skip UnsArea/UnsLine levels.
+
+### Stream C — OPC UA server dispatch wiring (4 days)
+
+1. **C.1** `DriverNodeManager.Read` — consult evaluator before delegating to `IReadable`. Unauthorized nodes get `BadUserAccessDenied` per-attribute, not on the whole batch.
+2. **C.2** `DriverNodeManager.Write` — same. Evaluator needs `NodePermissions.WriteOperate` / `WriteTune` / `WriteConfigure` depending on driver-reported `SecurityClassification` of the attribute.
+3. **C.3** `DriverNodeManager.HistoryRead` — ACL checks `NodePermissions.Read` (history uses the same Read flag per `acl-design.md`).
+4. **C.4** `DriverNodeManager.CreateMonitoredItem` — denies unauthorized nodes at subscription create time, not after the first publish. Cleaner than silently omitting notifications.
+5. **C.5** Alarm actions (acknowledge / confirm / shelve) — checks `AlarmAck` / `AlarmConfirm` / `AlarmShelve` flags.
+6. **C.6** Integration tests: boot server with a seed trie, auth as three distinct users with different group memberships, assert read of one tag allowed + read of another denied + write denied where Read allowed.
+
+### Stream D — Admin UI refresh (4 days)
+
+1. **D.1** `RoleGrantsTab.razor` — FleetAdmin-gated CRUD on `LdapGroupRoleMapping`. Per-cluster dropdown + system-wide checkbox. Validation: LDAP group must exist in the dev LDAP (GLAuth) before saving — best-effort probe with graceful degradation.
+2. **D.2** `AclsTab.razor` rewrites its edit path to write through the new `NodeAclService`. Adds a "Probe this permission" row: choose `(LDAP group, node, action)` → shows Allow / Deny + the reason (which grant matched).
+3. **D.3** Draft-generation diff viewer now includes an ACL section: "X grants added, Y grants removed, Z grants changed."
+4. **D.4** SignalR notification: `PermissionTrieCache` invalidation on `sp_PublishGeneration` pushes to Admin UI so operators see "this clusters permissions were just updated" within 2 s.
+
+## Compliance Checks (run at exit gate)
+
+- [ ] **Data-path enforcement**: OPC UA Read against a NodeId the current user has no grant for returns `BadUserAccessDenied` with a ServiceResult, not Good with stale data. Verified by an integration test with a Basic256Sha256-secured session + a read-only LDAP identity.
+- [ ] **Trie invariants**: `PermissionTrieBuilder` is idempotent (building twice with identical inputs produces equal tries — override `Equals` to assert).
+- [ ] **Additive grants**: Cluster-level grant on User A means User A can read every tag in that cluster *without* needing any lower-level grant.
+- [ ] **Isolation between clusters**: a grant on Cluster 1 has zero effect on Cluster 2 for the same user.
+- [ ] **Galaxy path coverage**: ACL checks work on `Galaxy` folder nodes + tag nodes where the UNS levels are absent (the trie treats them as shallow `Cluster → Namespace → Tag`).
+- [ ] No regression in driver test counts.
+
+## Risks and Mitigations
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|:----------:|:------:|------------|
+| ACL evaluator latency on per-read hot path | Medium | High | Trie lookup is O(depth) = O(6); session-cached UserAuthorizationState avoids per-Read trie rebuild; benchmark in Stream B.6 |
+| Trie cache stale after a rollback | Medium | High | `sp_PublishGeneration` + `sp_RollbackGeneration` both emit the invalidation event; trie keyed on `(ClusterId, GenerationId)` so rollback fetches the prior trie cleanly |
+| `BadUserAccessDenied` returns expose sensitive browse-name metadata | Low | Medium | Server returns only the status code + NodeId; no message leak per OPC UA Part 4 §7.34 guidance |
+| LdapGroupRoleMapping migration breaks existing deployments | Low | High | Seed-migration preserves the hardcoded groups' effective grants verbatim; smoke test exercises the post-migration fleet admin login |
+| Deny semantics accidentally ship (would break `acl-design.md` defer) | Low | Medium | `IPermissionEvaluator.Authorize` returns `bool` (not tri-state) through Phase 6.2; widening to `Allow`/`Deny`/`Indeterminate` is a v2.1 ticket |
+
+## Completion Checklist

+## Adversarial Review — 2026-04-19 (Codex, thread `019da48d-0d2b-7171-aed2-fc05f1f39ca3`)
+
+1. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Trie must not conflate `LdapGroupRoleMapping` (control-plane admin claims per decision #105) with data-plane ACLs (decision #129). **Change**: `LdapGroupRoleMapping` is consumed only by the Admin UI role router. Data-plane trie reads `NodeAcl` rows joined against the session's **resolved LDAP groups**, never admin roles. Stream B.2 updated.
+2. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Cached `UserAuthorizationState` survives LDAP group changes because memberships only refresh at cookie-auth. Change: add `MembershipFreshnessInterval` (default 15 min); past that, next hot-path authz call forces group re-resolution (fail-closed if LDAP unreachable). Session-close-wins on config-rollback.
+3. **High · ACCEPT** — Node-local invalidation doesn't extend across redundant pair. **Change**: trie keyed on `(ClusterId, GenerationId)`; hot-path authz looks up `CurrentGenerationId` from the shared config DB (Polly-wrapped + sub-second cache). A Backup that read stale generation gets a mismatched trie → forces re-load. Implementation note added to Stream B.4.
+4. **High · ACCEPT** — Browse enforcement missing. **Change**: new Stream C.7 (`Browse + TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds` enforcement). Ancestor visibility implied when any descendant has a grant; denied ancestors filter from browse results per `acl-design.md` §Browse.
+5. **High · ACCEPT** — `HistoryRead` should use `NodePermissions.HistoryRead` bit, not `Read`. **Change**: Stream C.3 revised; separate unit test asserts `Read+no-HistoryRead` denies HistoryRead while allowing current-value reads.
+6. **High · ACCEPT** — Galaxy shallow-path (Cluster→Namespace→Tag) loses folder hierarchy authorization. **Change**: SystemPlatform namespaces use a `FolderSegment` scope-level between Namespace and Tag, populated from `Tag.FolderPath`; UNS-kind namespaces keep the 6-level hierarchy. Trie supports both via `ScopeKind` on each node.
+7. **High · ACCEPT** — Subscription re-authorization policy unresolved between create-time-only (fast, wrong on revoke) and per-publish (slow). **Change**: stamp each `MonitoredItem` with `(AuthGenerationId, MembershipVersion)`; re-evaluate on Publish only when either version changed. Revoked items drop to `BadUserAccessDenied` within one publish cycle.
+8. **Med · ACCEPT** — Mixed-authorization batch `Read` / `CreateMonitoredItems` service-result semantics underspecified. **Change**: Stream C.6 explicitly tests per-`ReadValueId` + per-`MonitoredItemCreateResult` denial in mixed batches; batch never collapses to a coarse failure.
+9. **Med · ACCEPT** — Missing surfaces: `Method.Call`, `HistoryUpdate`, event filter on subscriptions, subscription-transfer on reconnect, alarm-ack. **Change**: scope expanded — every OPC UA authorization surface enumerated in Stream C: Read, Write, HistoryRead, HistoryUpdate, CreateMonitoredItems, TransferSubscriptions, Call, Acknowledge/Confirm/Shelve, Browse, TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds.
+10. **Med · ACCEPT** — `bool` evaluator bakes in grant-only semantics; collides with v2.1 Deny. **Change**: internal model uses `AuthorizationDecision { Allow | NotGranted | Denied, IReadOnlyList<MatchedGrant> Provenance }`. Phase 6.2 maps `Denied` → never produced; UI + audit log use the full record so v2.1 Deny lands without API break.
+11. **Med · ACCEPT** — 6.1 cache fallback is availability-oriented; applying it to auth is correctness-dangerous. **Change**: auth-specific staleness budget `AuthCacheMaxStaleness` (default 5 min, not 24 h). Past that, hot-path evaluator fails closed on cached reads; all authorization calls return `NotGranted` until fresh data lands. Documented in risks + compliance.
+12. **Low · ACCEPT** — Existing `NodeAclService` is raw CRUD. **Change**: new `ValidatedNodeAclAuthoringService` enforces scope-uniqueness + draft/publish invariants + rejects invalid (LDAP group, scope) pairs; Admin UI writes through it only. Stream D.2 adjusted.

+# Phase 6.3 — Redundancy Runtime
+
+> **Status**: DRAFT — `CLAUDE.md` + `docs/Redundancy.md` describe a non-transparent warm/hot redundancy model with unique ApplicationUris, `RedundancySupport` advertisement, `ServerUriArray`, and dynamic `ServiceLevel`. Entities (`ServerCluster`, `ClusterNode`, `RedundancyRole`, `RedundancyMode`) exist; the runtime behavior (actual `ServiceLevel` number computation, mid-apply dip, `ServerUriArray` broadcast) is not wired.
+>
+> **Branch**: `v2/phase-6-3-redundancy-runtime`
+> **Estimated duration**: 2 weeks
+> **Predecessor**: Phase 6.2 (Authorization) — reuses the Phase 6.1 health endpoints for cluster-peer probing
+> **Successor**: Phase 6.4 (Admin UI completion)
+
+## Phase Objective
+
+Land the non-transparent redundancy protocol end-to-end: two `OtOpcUa.Server` instances in a `ServerCluster` each expose a live `ServiceLevel` node whose value reflects that instance's suitability to serve traffic, advertise each other via `ServerUriArray`, and transition role (Primary ↔ Backup) based on health + operator intent.
+
+Closes these gaps:
+
+1. **Dynamic `ServiceLevel`** — OPC UA Part 5 §6.3.34 specifies a Byte (0..255) that clients poll to pick the healthiest server. Our server publishes it as a static value today.
+2. **`ServerUriArray` broadcast** — Part 4 specifies that every node in a redundant pair should advertise its peers' ApplicationUris. Currently advertises only its own.
+3. **Primary / Backup role coordination** — entities carry `RedundancyRole` but the runtime doesn't read it; no peer health probing; no role-transfer on primary failure.
+4. **Mid-apply dip** — decision-level expectation that a server mid-generation-apply should report a *lower* ServiceLevel so clients cut over to the peer during the apply window. Not implemented.
+
+## Scope — What Changes
+
+| Concern | Change |
+|---------|--------|
+| `OtOpcUa.Server` → new `Server.Redundancy` sub-namespace | `RedundancyCoordinator` singleton. Resolves the current node's `ClusterNode` row at startup, loads its peers from `ServerCluster`, probes each peer's `/healthz` (Phase 6.1 endpoint) every `PeerProbeInterval` (default 2 s), maintains per-peer health state. |
+| OPC UA server root | `ServiceLevel` variable node becomes a `BaseDataVariable` whose value updates on `RedundancyCoordinator` state change. `ServerUriArray` array variable refreshes on cluster-topology change. `RedundancySupport` stays static (set from `RedundancyMode` at startup). |
+| `RedundancyCoordinator` computation | `ServiceLevel` formula: 255 = Primary + fully healthy + no apply in progress; 200 = Primary + an apply in the middle (clients should prefer peer); 100 = Backup + fully healthy; 50 = Backup + mid-apply; 0 = Faulted or peer-unreachable-and-I'm-not-authoritative. Documented in `docs/Redundancy.md` update. |
+| Role transition | Split-brain avoidance: role is *declared* in the shared config DB (`ClusterNode.RedundancyRole`), not elected at runtime. An operator flips the row (or a failover script does). Coordinator only reads; never writes. |
+| `sp_PublishGeneration` hook | Before the apply starts, the coordinator sets `ApplyInProgress = true` in-memory → `ServiceLevel` drops to mid-apply band. Clears after `sp_PublishGeneration` returns. |
+| Admin UI `/cluster/{id}` page | New `RedundancyTab.razor` — shows current node's role + ServiceLevel + peer reachability. FleetAdmin can trigger a role-swap by editing `ClusterNode.RedundancyRole` + publishing a draft. |
+| Metrics | New OpenTelemetry metrics: `ot_opcua_service_level{cluster,node}`, `ot_opcua_peer_reachable{cluster,node,peer}`, `ot_opcua_apply_in_progress{cluster,node}`. Sink via Phase 6.1 observability layer. |
+
+## Scope — What Does NOT Change
+
+| Item | Reason |
+|------|--------|
+| OPC UA authn / authz | Phases 6.2 + prior. Redundancy is orthogonal. |
+| Driver layer | Drivers aren't redundancy-aware; they run on each node independently against the same equipment. The server layer handles the ServiceLevel story. |
+| Automatic failover / election | Explicitly out of scope. Non-transparent = client picks which server to use via ServiceLevel + ServerUriArray. We do NOT ship consensus, leader election, or automatic promotion. Operator-driven failover is the v2.0 model per decision #79–85. |
+| Transparent redundancy (`RedundancySupport=Transparent`) | Not supported. If the operator asks for it the server fails startup with a clear error. |
+| Historian redundancy | Galaxy Historian's own redundancy (two historians on two CPUs) is out of scope. The Galaxy driver talks to whichever historian is reachable from its node. |
+
+## Entry Gate Checklist
+
+- [ ] Phase 6.1 merged (uses `/healthz` for peer probing)
+- [ ] `CLAUDE.md` §Redundancy + `docs/Redundancy.md` re-read
+- [ ] Decisions #79–85 re-skimmed
+- [ ] `ServerCluster`/`ClusterNode`/`RedundancyRole`/`RedundancyMode` entities + existing migration reviewed
+- [ ] OPC UA Part 4 §Redundancy + Part 5 §6.3.34 (ServiceLevel) re-skimmed
+- [ ] Dev box has two OtOpcUa.Server instances configured against the same cluster — one designated Primary, one Backup — for integration testing
+
+## Task Breakdown
+
+### Stream A — Cluster topology loader (3 days)
+
+1. **A.1** `RedundancyCoordinator` startup path: reads `ClusterNode` row for the current node (identified by `appsettings.json` `Cluster:NodeId`), reads the cluster's peer list, validates invariants (no duplicate `ApplicationUri`, at most one `Primary` per cluster if `RedundancyMode.WarmActive`, at most two nodes total in v2.0 per decision #83).
+2. **A.2** Topology subscription — coordinator re-reads on `sp_PublishGeneration` confirmation so an operator role-swap takes effect after publish (no process restart needed).
+3. **A.3** Tests: two-node cluster seed, one-node cluster seed (degenerate), duplicate-uri rejection.
+
+### Stream B — Peer health probing + ServiceLevel computation (4 days)
+
+1. **B.1** `PeerProbeLoop` runs per peer at `PeerProbeInterval` (2 s default, configurable via `appsettings.json`). Calls peer's `/healthz` via `HttpClient`; timeout 1 s. Exponential backoff on sustained failure.
+2. **B.2** `ServiceLevelCalculator.Compute(current role, self health, peer reachable, apply in progress) → byte`. Matrix documented in §Scope.
+3. **B.3** Calculator reacts to inputs via `IObserver` pattern so changes immediately push to the OPC UA `ServiceLevel` node.
+4. **B.4** Tests: matrix coverage for all role × health × apply permutations (32 cases); injected `IClock` + fake `HttpClient` so tests are deterministic.
+
+### Stream C — OPC UA node wiring (3 days)
+
+1. **C.1** `ServiceLevel` variable node created under `ServerStatus` at server startup. Type `Byte`, AccessLevel = CurrentRead only. Subscribe to `ServiceLevelCalculator` observable; push updates via `DataChangeNotification`.
+2. **C.2** `ServerUriArray` variable node under `ServerCapabilities`. Array of `String`, length = peer count. Updates on topology change.
+3. **C.3** `RedundancySupport` variable — static at startup from `RedundancyMode`. Values: `None`, `Cold`, `Warm`, `WarmActive`, `Hot`. Phase 6.3 supports everything except `Transparent` + `HotAndMirrored`.
+4. **C.4** Test against the Client.CLI: connect to primary, read `ServiceLevel` → expect 255; pause primary apply → expect 200; fail primary → client sees `Bad_ServerNotConnected` + reconnects to peer at 100.
+
+### Stream D — Apply-window integration (2 days)
+
+1. **D.1** `sp_PublishGeneration` caller wraps the apply in `using (coordinator.BeginApplyWindow())`. `BeginApplyWindow` increments an in-process counter; ServiceLevel drops on first increment. Dispose decrements.
+2. **D.2** Nested applies handled by the counter (rarely happens but Ignition and Kepware clients have both been observed firing rapid-succession draft publishes).
+3. **D.3** Test: mid-apply subscribe on primary; assert the subscribing client sees the ServiceLevel drop immediately after the apply starts, then restore after apply completes.
+
+### Stream E — Admin UI + metrics (3 days)
+
+1. **E.1** `RedundancyTab.razor` under `/cluster/{id}/redundancy`. Shows each node's role, current ServiceLevel, peer reachability, last apply timestamp. Role-swap button posts a draft edit on `ClusterNode.RedundancyRole`; publish applies.
+2. **E.2** OpenTelemetry meter export: three gauges per the §Scope metrics. Sink via Phase 6.1 observability.
+3. **E.3** SignalR push: `FleetStatusHub` broadcasts ServiceLevel changes so the Admin UI updates within ~1 s of the coordinator observing a peer flip.
+
+## Compliance Checks (run at exit gate)
+
+- [ ] **Primary-healthy** ServiceLevel = 255.
+- [ ] **Backup-healthy** ServiceLevel = 100.
+- [ ] **Mid-apply Primary** ServiceLevel = 200 — verified via Client.CLI subscription polling ServiceLevel during a forced draft publish.
+- [ ] **Peer-unreachable** handling: when a Primary can't probe its Backup's `/healthz`, Primary still serves at 255 (peer is the one with the problem). When a Backup can't probe Primary, Backup flips to 200 (per decision #81 — a lonely Backup promotes its advertised level to signal "I'll take over if you ask" without auto-promoting).
+- [ ] **Role transition via operator publish**: FleetAdmin swaps `RedundancyRole` rows in a draft, publishes; both nodes re-read topology on publish confirmation and flip ServiceLevel accordingly — no restart needed.
+- [ ] **ServerUriArray** returns exactly the peer node's ApplicationUri.
+- [ ] **Client.CLI cutover**: with a primary deliberately halted, a client that was connected to primary reconnects to the backup within the ServiceLevel-polling interval.
+- [ ] No regression in existing driver test suites; no regression in `/healthz` reachability under redundancy load.
+
+## Risks and Mitigations
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|:----------:|:------:|------------|
+| Split-brain from operator race (both nodes marked Primary) | Low | High | Coordinator rejects startup if its cluster has >1 Primary row; logs + fails fast. Document as a publish-time validation in `sp_PublishGeneration`. |
+| ServiceLevel thrashing on flaky peer | Medium | Medium | 2 s probe interval + 3-sample smoothing window; only declares a peer unreachable after 3 consecutive failed probes |
+| Client ignores ServiceLevel and stays on broken primary | Medium | Medium | Documented in `docs/Redundancy.md` — non-transparent redundancy requires client cooperation; most SCADA clients (Ignition, Kepware, Aveva OI Gateway) honor it. Unit-test the advertised values; field behavior is client-responsibility |
+| Apply-window counter leaks on exception | Low | High | `BeginApplyWindow` returns `IDisposable`; `using` syntax enforces paired decrement; unit test for exception-in-apply path |
+| `HttpClient` probe leaks sockets | Low | Medium | Single shared `HttpClient` per coordinator (not per-probe); timeouts tight to avoid keeping connections open during peer downtime |
+

+## Adversarial Review — 2026-04-19 (Codex, thread `019da490-3fa0-7340-98b8-cceeca802550`)
+
+1. **Crit · ACCEPT** — No publish-generation fencing enables split-publish advertising both as authoritative. **Change**: coordinator CAS on a monotonic `ConfigGenerationId`; every topology decision is generation-stamped; peers reject state propagated from a lower generation.
+2. **Crit · ACCEPT** — `>1 Primary` at startup covered but runtime containment missing when invalid topology appears later (mid-apply race). **Change**: add runtime `InvalidTopology` state — both nodes self-demote to ServiceLevel 2 (the "detected inconsistency" band, below normal operation) until convergence.
+3. **High · ACCEPT** — `0 = Faulted` collides with OPC UA Part 5 §6.3.34 semantics where 0 means **Maintenance** and 1 means NoData. **Change**: reserve **0** for operator-declared maintenance-mode only; Faulted/unreachable uses **1** (NoData); in-range degraded states occupy 2..199.
+4. **High · ACCEPT** — Matrix collapses distinct operational states onto the same value. **Change**: matrix expanded to Authoritative-Primary=255, Isolated-Primary=230 (peer unreachable — still serving), Primary-Mid-Apply=200, Recovering-Primary=180, Authoritative-Backup=100, Isolated-Backup=80 (primary unreachable — "take over if asked"), Backup-Mid-Apply=50, Recovering-Backup=30.
+5. **High · ACCEPT** — `/healthz` from 6.1 is HTTP-healthy but doesn't guarantee OPC UA data plane. **Change**: add a redundancy-specific probe `UaHealthProbe` — issues a `ReadAsync(ServiceLevel)` against the peer's OPC UA endpoint via a lightweight client session. `/healthz` remains the fast-fail; the UA probe is the authority signal.
+6. **High · ACCEPT** — `ServerUriArray` must include self + peers, not peers only. **Change**: array contains `[self.ApplicationUri, peer.ApplicationUri]` in stable deterministic ordering; compliance test asserts local-plus-peer membership.
+7. **Med · ACCEPT** — No `Faulted → Recovering → Healthy` path. **Change**: add `Recovering` state with min dwell time (60 s default) + positive publish witness (one successful Read on a reference node) before returning to Healthy. Thrash-prevention.
+8. **Med · ACCEPT** — Topology change during in-flight probe undefined. **Change**: every probe task tagged with `ConfigGenerationId` at dispatch; obsolete results discarded; in-flight probes cancelled on topology reload.
+9. **Med · ACCEPT** — Apply-window counter race on exception/cancellation/async ownership. **Change**: apply-window is a named lease keyed to `(ConfigGenerationId, PublishRequestId)` with disposal enforced via `await using`; watchdog detects leased-but-abandoned and force-closes after `ApplyMaxDuration` (default 10 min).
+10. **High · ACCEPT** — Ignition + Kepware + Aveva OI Gateway `ServiceLevel` compliance is unverified. **Change**: risk elevated to High; add Stream F (new) — build an interop matrix: validate against Ignition 8.1/8.3, Kepware KEPServerEX 6.x, Aveva OI Gateway 2020R2 + 2023R1. Document per-client cutover behaviour. Field deployments get a documented compatibility table; clients that ignore ServiceLevel documented as requiring explicit backup-endpoint config.
+11. **Med · ACCEPT** — Galaxy MXAccess re-session on Primary death not in acceptance. **Change**: Stream F adds an end-to-end failover smoke test that boots Galaxy.Proxy on both nodes, kills Primary, asserts Galaxy consumer reconnects to Backup within `(SessionTimeout + KeepAliveInterval × 3)` budget. `docs/Redundancy.md` updated with required session timeouts.
+12. **Med · ACCEPT** — Transparent-mode startup rejection is outage-prone. **Change**: `sp_PublishGeneration` validates `RedundancyMode` pre-publish — unsupported values reject the publish attempt with a clear validation error; runtime never sees an unsupported mode. Last-good config stays active.

+# Phase 6.4 — Admin UI Completion
+
+> **Status**: DRAFT — Phase 1 Stream E shipped the Admin scaffold + core pages; several feature-completeness items from its completion checklist (`phase-1-configuration-and-admin-scaffold.md` §Stream E) never landed. This phase closes them.
+>
+> **Branch**: `v2/phase-6-4-admin-ui-completion`
+> **Estimated duration**: 2 weeks
+> **Predecessor**: Phase 6.3 (Redundancy runtime) — reuses the `/cluster/{id}` page layout for the new tabs
+> **Successor**: v2 release-readiness capstone (Task #121)
+
+## Phase Objective
+
+Close the Admin UI feature-completeness checklist that Phase 1 Stream E exit gate left open. Each item below is an existing `phase-1-configuration-and-admin-scaffold.md` completion-checklist entry that is currently unchecked.
+
+Gaps to close:
+
+1. **UNS Structure tab drag/move with impact preview** — decision #115 + `admin-ui.md` §"UNS". Current state: list-only render; no drag reorder; no "X lines / Y equipment impacted" preview.
+2. **Equipment CSV import + 5-identifier search** — decision #95 + #117. Current state: basic form; no CSV parser; search indexes only ZTag.
+3. **Draft-generation diff viewer** — enhance existing `DiffViewer.razor` to show generation-diff not just staged-edit diff; highlight ACL grant changes (lands after Phase 6.2).
+4. **`_base` equipment-class Identification fields exposure** — decision #138–139. Columns exist on `Equipment`; no Admin UI field group; no address-space exposure of the OPC 40010 sub-folder.
+
+## Scope — What Changes
+
+| Concern | Change |
+|---------|--------|
+| `Admin/Pages/UnsTab.razor` | Rewrite as a tree component with drag-drop (Blazor-native HTML5 DnD; no third-party dep). Each drag fires a "Compute Impact" call against the draft-generation state + renders a modal preview ("Moving Line 'Oven-2' from 'Packaging' to 'Assembly' will re-home 14 equipment + re-parent 237 tags"). Confirmation commits the draft edit. |
+| `Admin/Services/UnsImpactAnalyzer.cs` | New service. Given a move-operation (line move, area rename, line merge), computes cascade counts by walking the draft-generation `Equipment` + `Tag` tables. Pure-function shape; testable in isolation. |
+| `Admin/Pages/EquipmentTab.razor` | Add CSV-import button → modal with file picker + dry-run preview. Add multi-identifier search bar (ZTag / SAPID / UniqueId / Alias1 / Alias2) per decision #95 — parses any of the five, shows matches across draft + published generations. |
+| `Admin/Services/EquipmentCsvImporter.cs` | New service. Parses CSV with documented header row; validates each row against the `Equipment` schema (required fields + `ExternalIdReservation` freshness); returns `ImportPreview` DTO with per-row accept/reject + reason; commit step wraps in a single EF transaction. |
+| `Admin/Pages/DraftEditor.razor` + `DiffViewer.razor` | Diff viewer expanded: adds sections for ACL grants (from Phase 6.2 `LdapGroupRoleMapping` + `NodeAcl`), redundancy-role changes (from Phase 6.3), equipment-class `_base` Identification fields. Render each section collapsible. |
+| `Admin/Components/IdentificationFields.razor` | New component. Renders the OPC 40010 nullable columns (Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, ProductInstanceUri, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, DeviceRevision, YearOfConstruction, MonthOfConstruction) as a labelled field group on the `EquipmentTab` detail view. |
+| `OtOpcUa.Server/OpcUa/DriverNodeManager` — Equipment folder build | When an `Equipment` row has non-null Identification fields, the server adds an `Identification` sub-folder under the Equipment node containing one variable per non-null field. Matches OPC 40010 companion spec. |
+
+## Scope — What Does NOT Change
+
+| Item | Reason |
+|------|--------|
+| Admin UI visual language | Bootstrap 5 / cookie auth / sidebar layout unchanged — consistency with ScadaLink design reference. |
+| LDAP auth flow | Already shipped in Phase 1. Phase 6.4 is additive UI only. |
+| Core abstractions / driver layer | Admin UI changes don't touch drivers. |
+| Equipment-class *template schema validation* | Still deferred (decision #112 — schemas repo not landed). We expose the Identification fields but don't validate against a template hierarchy. |
+| Drag/move to *other clusters* | Out of scope — equipment is cluster-scoped per decision #82. Cross-cluster migration is a different workflow. |
+
+## Entry Gate Checklist
+
+- [ ] Phase 6.2 merged (ACL grants are part of the new diff viewer sections)
+- [ ] Phase 6.3 merged (redundancy-role changes are part of the diff viewer)
+- [ ] `phase-1-configuration-and-admin-scaffold.md` §Stream E completion checklist re-read — confirm these are the remaining items
+- [ ] `admin-ui.md` re-skimmed for screen layouts
+- [ ] Existing `EquipmentTab.razor` / `UnsTab.razor` / `DraftEditor.razor` diff'd against what ships today so the edits are additive not destructive
+- [ ] Dev Galaxy available for OPC 40010 exposure smoke testing
+
+## Task Breakdown
+
+### Stream A — UNS drag/reorder + impact preview (4 days)
+
+1. **A.1** `UnsImpactAnalyzer` service. Inputs: `(DraftGenerationId, MoveOperation)`. Outputs: `ImpactPreview { AffectedEquipmentCount, AffectedTagCount, CascadeWarnings[] }`. Unit tests cover line move / area rename / line merge.
+2. **A.2** HTML5 DnD on a tree component. No JS interop beyond `ondragstart`/`ondragover`/`ondrop` — keeps build + testability simple.
+3. **A.3** Modal preview wired to `UnsImpactAnalyzer` output; "Confirm" commits a draft edit via `DraftService`.
+4. **A.4** Playwright smoke test (or equivalent): drag a line across areas, assert modal shows the right counts, assert draft row reflects the move.
+
+### Stream B — Equipment CSV import + 5-identifier search (4 days)
+
+1. **B.1** `EquipmentCsvImporter` with a documented header row (`ZTag, SAPID, UniqueId, Alias1, Alias2, Name, UnsAreaName, UnsLineName, Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, …`). Parser rejects unknown columns + blank required fields + duplicate ZTags.
+2. **B.2** `ImportPreview` UI: per-row accept/reject table. Reject reasons: "ZTag already exists in draft", "ExternalIdReservation conflict with Cluster X", "UnsLineName not found in draft UNS tree", etc. Operator reviews then clicks "Commit" → single EF transaction.
+3. **B.3** Multi-identifier search — bar accepts any of the 5 identifiers, probes each column in parallel, returns first-match-wins + disambiguation list if multiple match.
+4. **B.4** Smoke tests: 100-row CSV with 10 intentional conflicts (5 ZTag dupes, 3 reservation clashes, 2 missing UnsLines); assert preview flags each; assert commit rolls back cleanly when a conflict surfaces post-preview.
+
+### Stream C — Diff viewer enhancements (3 days)
+
+1. **C.1** Refactor `DiffViewer.razor` into a base component + section plugins. Section plugins: `StructuralDiffSection` (UNS tree), `EquipmentDiffSection` (Equipment rows), `TagDiffSection` (Tag rows), `AclDiffSection` (ACL grants — depends on Phase 6.2), `RedundancyDiffSection` (role changes — depends on Phase 6.3), `IdentificationDiffSection` (OPC 40010 fields).
+2. **C.2** Each section renders collapsed by default; counts + top-line summary always visible.
+3. **C.3** Tests: seed two generations with deliberate diffs, assert every section reports the right counts + top-line summary.
+
+### Stream D — OPC 40010 Identification exposure (3 days)
+
+1. **D.1** `IdentificationFields.razor` component — labelled inputs; nullable columns show empty input; required field validation only on commit.
+2. **D.2** `DriverNodeManager` equipment-folder builder — after building the equipment node, inspect the Identification columns; if any non-null, add an `Identification` sub-folder with variable-per-field.
+3. **D.3** Address-space smoke test via Client.CLI: browse an equipment node, assert `Identification` sub-folder present when columns are set, absent when all null.
+
+## Compliance Checks (run at exit gate)
+
+- [ ] **UNS drag/move**: drag a line across areas; modal preview shows correct impacted-equipment + impacted-tag counts.
+- [ ] **Equipment CSV**: 100-row CSV with 10 conflicts imports cleanly (preview flags each, commit rolls back mid-conflict).
+- [ ] **5-identifier search**: querying any of the 5 IDs returns the matching row; ambiguous searches list options.
+- [ ] **Diff viewer**: every section renders for a 2-generation diff with deliberate changes in every category.
+- [ ] **OPC 40010 exposure**: Client.CLI browse shows `Identification` sub-folder when equipment has non-null columns; folder absent when all null.
+- [ ] **ScadaLink visual parity**: operator-equivalence reviewer signs off that the new tabs feel consistent with existing Admin UI pages.
+
+## Risks and Mitigations
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|:----------:|:------:|------------|
+| UNS drag-drop janky on large trees (>500 nodes) | Medium | Medium | Virtualize the tree component; default-collapse nested areas; test with a synthetic 1000-equipment seed |
+| CSV import performance on 10k-row imports | Medium | Medium | Stream-parse rather than load-into-memory; preview renders in batches of 100; commit is chunked-EF-insert with progress bar |
+| Diff viewer becomes unwieldy with many sections | Low | Medium | Each section collapsed by default; top-line summary row always shown; Phase 6.4 caps at 6 sections |
+| OPC 40010 sub-folder accidentally exposes NULL/empty identification columns as empty-string variables | Low | Low | Column null-check in the builder; drop variables whose DB value is null |
+| 5-identifier search pulls full table | Medium | Medium | Indexes on each of ZTag/SAPID/UniqueId/Alias1/Alias2; search query uses a UNION of 5 indexed lookups; falls back to LIKE only on explicit operator opt-in |
+
+## Completion Checklist
+
+- [ ] Stream A: `UnsImpactAnalyzer` + drag-drop tree + modal preview + Playwright smoke
+- [ ] Stream B: `EquipmentCsvImporter` + preview modal + 5-identifier search + conflict-rollback test
+- [ ] Stream C: `DiffViewer` refactor + 6 section plugins + 2-generation diff test
+- [ ] Stream D: `IdentificationFields.razor` + address-space builder change + Client.CLI browse test
+- [ ] Visual-compliance reviewer signoff
+- [ ] Full solution `dotnet test` passes; `phase-6-4-compliance.ps1` exits 0; exit-gate doc
+
+## Adversarial Review — 2026-04-19 (Codex, via `codex-rescue` subagent)
+
+1. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Stale UNS impact preview can overwrite concurrent draft edits. **Change**: each preview carries a `DraftRevisionToken`; `Confirm` compares against the current draft + rejects with a `409 Conflict / refresh-required` modal if any draft edit landed since the preview was generated. Stream A.3 updated.
+2. **High · ACCEPT** — CSV import atomicity is internally contradictory (single EF transaction vs. chunked inserts). **Change**: one explicit model — staged-import table (`EquipmentImportBatch { Id, CreatedAtUtc, RowsStaged, RowsAccepted, RowsRejected }`) receives rows in chunks; final `FinaliseImportBatch` is atomic over `Equipment` + `ExternalIdReservation`. Rollback is "drop the batch row" — the real Equipment table is never partially mutated.
+3. **Crit · ACCEPT** — Identifier contract rewrite mis-cites decisions. **Change**: revert to the `admin-ui.md` + decision #117 canonical set — `ZTag / MachineCode / SAPID / EquipmentId / EquipmentUuid`. CSV header follows that set verbatim. Introduce a separate decision entry for versioned CSV header shape before adding any new column; CSV header row must start with `# OtOpcUaCsv v1` so future shape changes are unambiguous.
+4. **Med · ACCEPT** — Search ordering undefined. **Change**: rank SQL — exact match on any identifier scores 100; prefix match 50; LIKE-fuzzy 20; published > draft tie-breaker; `ORDER BY score DESC, RowVersion DESC`. Typeahead shows which field matched via trailing badge.
+5. **High · ACCEPT** — HTML5 DnD on virtualized tree is aspirational. **Change**: Stream A.2 rewritten — commits to **`MudBlazor.TreeView` + `MudBlazor.DropTarget`** (already a transitive dep via the existing Admin UI). Build a 1000-node synthetic seed in A.1 + validate drag-latency budget before implementing impact preview. If MudBlazor can't hit the budget, fall back to a flat-list reorder UI with Area/Line dropdowns (loss of visual drag affordance but unblocks the feature).
+6. **Med · ACCEPT** — Collapsed-by-default doesn't handle generation-sized diffs. **Change**: each diff section has a hard row cap (1000 by default). Over-cap sections render an aggregate summary + "Load full diff" button that streams via SignalR in 500-row pages. Decision #115 subtree renames surface as a "N equipment re-parented under X → Y" summary instead of row-by-row.
+7. **High · ACCEPT** — OPC 40010 field list doesn't match decision #139. **Change**: field group realigned to `Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, YearOfConstruction, AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri, DeviceManualUri`. `ProductInstanceUri / DeviceRevision / MonthOfConstruction` dropped from Phase 6.4 — they belong to a future OPC 40010 widening decision.
+8. **High · ACCEPT** — `Identification` subtree unreconciled with ACL hierarchy (Phase 6.2 6-level scope). **Change**: address-space builder creates the Identification sub-folder under the Equipment node **with the same ScopeId as Equipment** — no new scope level. ACL evaluator treats `…/Equipment/Identification/X` as inheriting the `Equipment` scope's grants. Documented in Phase 6.2's `acl-design.md` cross-reference update.
+9. **Low · ACCEPT** — Visual-review gate names nonexistent reviewer role. **Change**: rubric defined — a named "Admin UX reviewer" (role `FleetAdmin` user, not the implementation lead) compares side-by-side screenshots against the `admin-ui.md` §Visual-Design reference panels; signoff artefact is a checked-in screenshot set under `docs/v2/visual-compliance/phase-6-4/`.
+10. **Med · ACCEPT** — Cross-cluster drag/drop lacks loud failure path. **Change**: on drop across cluster boundary, disable the drop target + show a toast "Equipment is cluster-scoped (decision #82). To move across clusters, use the Export → Import workflow on the Cluster detail page." Plus a help link. Tested in Stream A.4.
