Phase 6.4 Stream D server-side — IdentificationFolderBuilder materializes OPC 40010 Machinery Identification sub-folder

Closes the server-side / non-UI piece of Phase 6.4 Stream D. The Razor
`IdentificationFields.razor` component for Admin-UI editing ships separately
when the Admin UI pass lands (still tracked under #157 UI follow-up).

Core.OpcUa additions:
- IdentificationFolderBuilder — pure-function builder that materializes the
  OPC 40010 Machinery companion-spec Identification sub-folder per decision
  #139. Reads the nine nullable columns off an Equipment row:
  Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision,
  YearOfConstruction (short → OPC UA Int32), AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri,
  DeviceManualUri. Emits one AddProperty call per non-null field; skips the
  sub-folder entirely when all nine are null so browse trees don't carry
  pointless empty folders.
- HasAnyFields(equipment) — cheap short-circuit so callers can decide
  whether to invoke Folder() at all.
- FolderName constant ("Identification") + FieldNames list exposed so
  downstream tools / tests can cross-reference without duplicating the
  decision-#139 field set.

ACL binding: the sub-folder + variables live under the Equipment node so
Phase 6.2's PermissionTrie treats them as part of the Equipment ScopeId —
no new scope level. A user with Equipment-level grant reads the
Identification fields; a user without gets BadUserAccessDenied on both the
Equipment node + its Identification variables. Documented in the class
remarks; cross-reference update to acl-design.md is a follow-up.

Tests (9 new IdentificationFolderBuilderTests):
- HasAnyFields all-null false / any-non-null true.
- Build all-null returns null + doesn't emit Folder.
- Build fully-populated emits all 9 fields in decision #139 order.
- Only non-null fields are emitted (3-of-9 case).
- YearOfConstruction short widens to DriverDataType.Int32 with int value.
- String values round-trip through AddProperty.
- FieldNames constant matches decision #139 exactly.
- FolderName is "Identification".

Full solution dotnet test: 1202 passing (was 1193, +9). Pre-existing
Client.CLI Subscribe flake unchanged.

Production integration: the component that consumes this is the
address-space-build flow that walks the live Equipment table + calls
IdentificationFolderBuilder.Build(equipmentFolder, equipment) under each
Equipment node. That integration is the remaining Stream D follow-up
alongside the Razor UI component.

-| 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. |

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. |

+| Every capability-interface consumer in the server | Wrap `IReadable.ReadAsync`, `IWritable.WriteAsync`, `ITagDiscovery.DiscoverAsync`, `ISubscribable.SubscribeAsync/UnsubscribeAsync`, `IHostConnectivityProbe` probe loop, `IAlarmSource.SubscribeAlarmsAsync/AcknowledgeAsync`, `IHistoryProvider.ReadRawAsync/ReadProcessedAsync/ReadAtTimeAsync/ReadEventsAsync`. Composition: timeout → (retry when capability supports) → circuit breaker → bulkhead. |

(b) **`MemoryRecycle`** (Tier C only — requires out-of-process topology) handles hard-breach recycle via the Proxy-side supervisor. Tier A/B overrun escalates to Tier C promotion ticket, not auto-kill. |
+| `ScheduledRecycleScheduler` | Tier C only per decisions #73-74. Weekly/time-of-day recycle via Proxy supervisor. Tier A/B opt-in recycle lands in a future phase together with a Tier-C-escalation workflow. |
+| `WedgeDetector` | **Demand-aware**: flips a driver to Faulted only when `(hasPendingWork AND noProgressIn > threshold)`. `hasPendingWork` derives from non-zero Polly bulkhead depth OR ≥1 active MonitoredItem OR ≥1 queued historian read. Idle + subscription-only drivers stay Healthy. |

Reads serve the last-known-sealed generation; mixed-generation reads are impossible. Write path bypasses cache + fails hard on DB outage. Pipeline: timeout (2 s) → retry (3×, jittered) → fallback-to-sealed-snapshot. |

Per-capability policy map documented in `DriverResilienceOptions.CapabilityPolicies`.
+2. **A.2** `DriverResilienceOptions` record bound from `DriverInstance.ResilienceConfig` JSON column (new nullable). **Per-tier × per-capability** defaults: Tier A (OpcUaClient, S7) Read 3 retries/2 s/5-failure-breaker, Write 0 retries/2 s/5-failure-breaker; Tier B (Modbus) Read 3/4 s/5, Write 0/4 s/5; Tier C (Galaxy) Read 1 retry/10 s/no-kill, Write 0/10 s/no-kill. Idempotent writes can opt into Read-shaped retry via the attribute.
+3. **A.3** `CapabilityInvoker<TCapability, TResult>` wraps every method on the capability interfaces (`IReadable.ReadAsync`, `IWritable.WriteAsync`, `ITagDiscovery.DiscoverAsync`, `ISubscribable.SubscribeAsync/UnsubscribeAsync`, `IHostConnectivityProbe` probe loop, `IAlarmSource.SubscribeAlarmsAsync/AcknowledgeAsync`, `IHistoryProvider.ReadRawAsync/ReadProcessedAsync/ReadAtTimeAsync/ReadEventsAsync`). Existing server-side dispatch routes through it.
+4. **A.4** **Retain** `Driver.Galaxy.Proxy/Supervisor/CircuitBreaker.cs` + `Backoff.cs` — they guard IPC process respawn (decision #68), orthogonal to the per-call Polly layer. Only `HeartbeatMonitor` is consumed outside the supervisor.
+5. **A.5** Unit tests: per-policy, per-composition. Negative integration tests: (a) Modbus FlakeyTransport fails 5× on Read, succeeds 6th — invoker surfaces success; (b) Modbus FlakeyTransport fails 1× on Write with `[WriteIdempotent]=false` — invoker surfaces failure without retry (no duplicate pulse); (c) Modbus FlakeyTransport fails 1× on Write with `[WriteIdempotent]=true` — invoker retries.

-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.

Captures `BaselineFootprintBytes` as the median of first 5 min of `IDriver.GetMemoryFootprint()` samples post-`InitializeAsync`. Applies **decision #70 hybrid formula**: `soft = max(multiplier × baseline, baseline + floor)`; Tier A multiplier=3, floor=50 MB; Tier B multiplier=3, floor=100 MB; Tier C multiplier=2, floor=500 MB. Soft breach → log + `DriverInstanceResilienceStatus.CurrentFootprint` tick; never kills. Hard = 2 × soft.
+3. **B.3** **`MemoryRecycle`** (Tier C only per decisions #73-74). Hard-breach on a Tier C driver triggers `ScheduledRecycleScheduler.RequestRecycleNow(driverInstanceId)`; scheduler proxies to `Driver.Galaxy.Proxy/Supervisor/` which restarts the Host process. Tier A/B hard-breach logs a promotion-to-Tier-C recommendation; **never auto-kills** the in-process driver.
+4. **B.4** **`ScheduledRecycleScheduler`** per decision #67: Tier C driver instances opt-in to a weekly recycle at a configured cron. Tier A/B scheduled recycle deferred to a later phase paired with Tier-C escalation.

Idle driver stays Healthy.

 ## Scope — What Changes
 
+**Architectural separation** (critical for correctness): `LdapGroupRoleMapping` is **control-plane only** — it maps LDAP groups to Admin UI roles (`FleetAdmin` / `ConfigEditor` / `ReadOnly`) and cluster scopes for Admin access. **It is NOT consulted by the OPC UA data-path evaluator.** The data-path evaluator reads `NodeAcl` rows joined directly against the session's **resolved LDAP group memberships**. The two concerns share zero runtime code path.
+
 | 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. |
+| `Configuration` project | New entity `LdapGroupRoleMapping { Id, LdapGroup, Role, ClusterId? (nullable = system-wide), IsSystemWide, GeneratedAtUtc }`. **Consumed only by Admin UI role routing.** Migration. Admin CRUD. |
+| `Core` → new `Core.Authorization` sub-namespace | `IPermissionEvaluator.Authorize(IEnumerable<Claim> identity, OpcUaOperation op, NodeId nodeId) → AuthorizationDecision`. `op` covers every OPC UA surface: Browse, Read, Write, HistoryRead, HistoryUpdate, CreateMonitoredItems, TransferSubscriptions, Call, Acknowledge, Confirm, Shelve. Result is tri-state (internal model distinguishes `Allow` / `NotGranted` / `Denied` + carries matched-grant provenance). Phase 6.2 only produces `Allow` + `NotGranted`; v2.1 Deny lands without API break. |
+| `PermissionTrieBuilder` | Builds trie from `NodeAcl` rows joined against **resolved LDAP group memberships**, keyed on 6-level scope hierarchy for Equipment namespaces. **SystemPlatform namespaces (Galaxy)** use a `FolderSegment` scope level between Namespace and Tag, populated from `Tag.FolderPath` segments, so folder subtree authorization works on Galaxy trees the same way UNS works on Equipment trees. Trie node carries `ScopeKind` enum. |
+| `PermissionTrieCache` + freshness | One trie per `(ClusterId, GenerationId)`. Invalidated on `sp_PublishGeneration` via in-process event bus AND generation-ID check on hot path — every authz call looks up `CurrentGenerationId` (Polly-wrapped, sub-second cache); a Backup that cached a stale generation detects the mismatch + forces re-load. **Redundancy-safe**. |
+| `UserAuthorizationState` freshness | Cached per session BUT bounded by `MembershipFreshnessInterval` (default **15 min**). Past that, the next hot-path authz call re-resolves LDAP group memberships via `LdapGroupService`. Failure to re-resolve (LDAP unreachable) → **fail-closed**: evaluator returns `NotGranted` for every call until memberships refresh successfully. Decoupled from Phase 6.1's availability-oriented 24h cache. |

 ## 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`).
+- [ ] **Control/data-plane separation**: `LdapGroupRoleMapping` consumed only by Admin UI; the data-path evaluator has zero references to it. Enforced via a project-reference audit (Admin project references the mapping service; `Core.Authorization` does not).
+- [ ] **Every operation wired**: Browse, Read, Write, HistoryRead, HistoryUpdate, CreateMonitoredItems, TransferSubscriptions, Call, Acknowledge, Confirm, Shelve all consult the evaluator. Integration test matrix covers every operation × allow/deny.
+- [ ] **HistoryRead uses its own flag**: test "user with Read + no HistoryRead gets `BadUserAccessDenied` on HistoryRead".
+- [ ] **Mixed-batch semantics**: Read of 5 nodes (3 allowed + 2 denied) returns 3 Good + 2 `BadUserAccessDenied` per-`ReadValueId`; CreateMonitoredItems equivalent.
+- [ ] **Browse ancestor visibility**: user with a grant only on a deep equipment node can browse the path to it (ancestors implied); denied ancestors filter from browse results otherwise.
+- [ ] **Galaxy FolderSegment coverage**: a grant on a Galaxy folder subtree cascades to its tags; sibling folders are unaffected. Trie test covers this.
+- [ ] **Subscription re-authorization**: integration test — create item, revoke grant via draft+publish, next publish cycle the item returns `BadUserAccessDenied` (not silently still-notifying).
+- [ ] **Membership freshness**: test — 15 min MembershipFreshnessInterval elapses on a long-lived session + LDAP now unreachable → authz fails closed on the next request until LDAP recovers.
+- [ ] **Auth cache fail-closed**: test — Phase 6.1 cache serves stale config for 6 min; authz evaluator refuses all calls after 5 min regardless.
+- [ ] **Trie invariants**: `PermissionTrieBuilder` is idempotent (build twice with identical inputs → equal tries).
+- [ ] **Additive grants + cluster isolation**: cluster-grant cascades; cross-cluster leakage impossible.
+- [ ] **Redundancy-safe invalidation**: integration test — two nodes, a publish on one, authorize a request on the other before in-process event propagates → generation-mismatch forces re-load, no stale decision.
+- [ ] **Authoring validation**: `AclsTab` cannot save a `(LdapGroup, Scope)` pair that already exists in the draft; operator sees the validation error pre-save.
+- [ ] **AuthorizationDecision shape stability**: API surface exposes `Allow` + `NotGranted` only; `Denied` variant exists in the type but is never produced; v2.1 can add Deny without API break.

Authority decisions use UaHealthProbe; `/healthz` is used only to avoid wasting UA probes when peer is obviously down. |
+| Publish-generation fencing | Topology + role decisions are stamped with a monotonic `ConfigGenerationId` from the shared config DB. Coordinator re-reads topology via CAS on `(ClusterId, ExpectedGeneration)` → new row; peers reject state propagated from a lower generation. Prevents split-publish races. |
+| `InvalidTopology` runtime state | If both nodes detect >1 Primary AFTER startup (config-DB drift during a publish), both self-demote to ServiceLevel 2 until convergence. Neither node serves authoritatively; clients pick the healthier alternative or reconnect later. |
+| OPC UA server root | `ServiceLevel` variable node becomes a `BaseDataVariable` whose value updates on `RedundancyCoordinator` state change. `ServerUriArray` array variable includes **self + peers** in stable deterministic ordering (decision per OPC UA Part 4 §6.6.2.2). `RedundancySupport` stays static (set from `RedundancyMode` at startup); `Transparent` mode validated pre-publish, not rejected at startup. |

Full matrix documented in `docs/Redundancy.md` update. |

Disposal on any exit path (success, exception, cancellation) decrements. Watchdog auto-closes any lease older than `ApplyMaxDuration` (default 10 min) → ServiceLevel can't stick at mid-apply. Pre-publish validator rejects unsupported `RedundancyMode` (e.g. `Transparent`) with a clear error so runtime never sees an invalid state. |

-- [ ] **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.
+- [ ] **OPC UA band compliance**: `0=Maintenance` reserved, `1=NoData` reserved. Operational states in 2..255 per 8-state matrix.
+- [ ] **Authoritative-Primary** ServiceLevel = 255.
+- [ ] **Isolated-Primary** (peer unreachable, self serving) = 230 — Primary retains authority.
+- [ ] **Primary-Mid-Apply** = 200.
+- [ ] **Recovering-Primary** = 180 with dwell + publish witness enforced.
+- [ ] **Authoritative-Backup** = 100.
+- [ ] **Isolated-Backup** (primary unreachable) = 80 — does NOT auto-promote.
+- [ ] **InvalidTopology** = 2 — both nodes self-demote when >1 Primary detected runtime.
+- [ ] **ServerUriArray** returns self + peer URIs, self first.
+- [ ] **UaHealthProbe authority**: integration test — peer returns HTTP 200 but OPC UA endpoint unreachable → coordinator treats peer as UA-unhealthy; peer is not a valid authority source.
+- [ ] **Apply-lease disposal**: leases close on exception, cancellation, and watchdog timeout; ServiceLevel never sticks at mid-apply band.
+- [ ] **Transparent-mode rejection**: attempting to publish `RedundancyMode=Transparent` is blocked at `sp_PublishGeneration`; runtime never sees an invalid mode.
+- [ ] **Role transition via operator publish**: FleetAdmin swaps `RedundancyRole` in a draft, publishes; both nodes re-read topology on publish confirmation + flip ServiceLevel — no restart.
+- [ ] **Client.CLI cutover**: with primary halted, Client.CLI that was connected to primary sees primary drop + reconnects to backup via `ServerUriArray`.
+- [ ] **Client interoperability matrix** (Stream F): Ignition 8.1 + 8.3 honour ServiceLevel; Kepware + Aveva OI Gateway findings documented.
+- [ ] **Galaxy MXAccess failover**: end-to-end test — primary kill → Galaxy consumer reconnects to backup within session-timeout budget.
 - [ ] No regression in existing driver test suites; no regression in `/healthz` reachability under redundancy load.

-| `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. |
+| `Admin/Pages/UnsTab.razor` | Tree component with drag-drop using **`MudBlazor.TreeView` + `MudBlazor.DropTarget`** (existing transitive dep — no new third-party package). Native HTML5 DnD rejected because virtualization + DnD on 500+ nodes doesn't combine reliably. Each drag fires a "Compute Impact" call carrying a `DraftRevisionToken`; modal preview ("Moving Line 'Oven-2' from 'Packaging' to 'Assembly' will re-home 14 equipment + re-parent 237 tags"). **Confirm step re-checks the token** and rejects with a `409 Conflict / refresh-required` modal if the draft advanced between preview and commit. |
+| `Admin/Services/UnsImpactAnalyzer.cs` | New service. Given a move-operation (line move, area rename, line merge), computes cascade counts + `DraftRevisionToken` at preview time. Pure-function shape; testable in isolation. |
+| `Admin/Pages/EquipmentTab.razor` | Add CSV-import button → modal with file picker + dry-run preview. **Identifier search** uses the canonical decision #117 set: `ZTag / MachineCode / SAPID / EquipmentId / EquipmentUuid`. Typeahead probes each column with a ranking query (exact match score 100 → prefix 50 → opt-in LIKE 20; published > draft tie-break). Result row shows which field matched via trailing badge. |
+| `Admin/Services/EquipmentCsvImporter.cs` | New service. CSV header row must start with `# OtOpcUaCsv v1` (version marker — future shape changes bump the version). Columns: `ZTag, MachineCode, SAPID, EquipmentId, EquipmentUuid, Name, UnsAreaName, UnsLineName, Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, YearOfConstruction, AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri, DeviceManualUri`. Parser rejects unknown columns + blank required fields + duplicate ZTags + missing UnsLines. |
+| **Staged-import table** `EquipmentImportBatch` | New entity `{ Id, CreatedAtUtc, CreatedBy, RowsStaged, RowsAccepted, RowsRejected, FinalisedAtUtc? }` + child `EquipmentImportRow` records. Import writes rows in chunks to the staging table (not to `Equipment`). `FinaliseImportBatch` is the atomic finalize step that applies all accepted rows to `Equipment` + `ExternalIdReservation` in one transaction — short + bounded regardless of input size. Rollback = drop the batch row; `Equipment` never partially mutates. |
+| `Admin/Pages/DraftEditor.razor` + `DiffViewer.razor` | Diff viewer refactored into a base component + section plugins: `StructuralDiffSection`, `EquipmentDiffSection`, `TagDiffSection`, `AclDiffSection` (Phase 6.2), `RedundancyDiffSection` (Phase 6.3), `IdentificationDiffSection`. Each section has a **1000-row hard cap**; over-cap renders an aggregate summary + "Load full diff" button streaming 500-row pages via SignalR. Subtree-rename diffs (decision #115 bulk restructure) surface as summary only by default. |
+| `Admin/Components/IdentificationFields.razor` | New component. Renders the OPC 40010 field set **per decision #139**: `Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, YearOfConstruction, AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri, DeviceManualUri`. `ProductInstanceUri / DeviceRevision / MonthOfConstruction` dropped from this phase — they need a separate decision-log widening. |
+| `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. **ACL binding**: the sub-folder + variables inherit the `Equipment` scope's grants from Phase 6.2's trie — no new scope level added. Documented in `acl-design.md` cross-reference update. |

 ## Task Breakdown
 
-### Stream A — UNS drag/reorder + impact preview (4 days)
+### Stream A — UNS drag/reorder + impact preview (5 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.
+1. **A.1** 1000-node synthetic seed fixture. Drag-latency bench against `MudBlazor.TreeView` + `MudBlazor.DropTarget` — commit to the component if latency budget (100 ms drag-enter feedback) holds; fall back to flat-list reorder UI (Area/Line dropdowns) with loss of visual drag affordance otherwise.
+2. **A.2** `UnsImpactAnalyzer` service. Inputs: `(DraftGenerationId, MoveOperation, DraftRevisionToken)`. Outputs: `ImpactPreview { AffectedEquipmentCount, AffectedTagCount, CascadeWarnings[], DraftRevisionToken }`. Pure-function shape; testable in isolation.
+3. **A.3** Modal preview wired to `UnsImpactAnalyzer`. **Confirm** re-reads the current draft revision + compares against the preview's token; if the draft advanced (another operator saved a different edit), show a `409 Conflict / refresh-required` modal rather than silently overwriting.
+4. **A.4** Cross-cluster drop attempts: target disabled + toast "Equipment is cluster-scoped (decision #82). To move across clusters, use Export → Import on the Cluster detail page." Plus help link.
+5. **A.5** Playwright (or equivalent) smoke test: drag a line across areas, assert modal shows right counts, assert draft row reflects the move; concurrent-edit test runs two sessions + asserts the later Confirm hits the 409.
 
-### Stream B — Equipment CSV import + 5-identifier search (4 days)
+### Stream B — Equipment CSV import + 5-identifier search (5 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.
+1. **B.1** `EquipmentCsvImporter`. Strict RFC 4180 parser (per decision #95). Header row validation: first line must match `# OtOpcUaCsv v1` — future versions fork parser versions. Required columns: `ZTag, MachineCode, SAPID, EquipmentId, EquipmentUuid, Name, UnsAreaName, UnsLineName`. Optional: `Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, YearOfConstruction, AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri, DeviceManualUri`. Parser rejects unknown columns + blank required fields + duplicate ZTags.
+2. **B.2** `EquipmentImportBatch` + `EquipmentImportRow` staging tables (migration). Import writes preview rows to staging via chunked inserts; staging never blocks `Equipment` or `ExternalIdReservation`. Preview query reads staging + validates each row against the current `Equipment` state + `ExternalIdReservation` freshness.
+3. **B.3** `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 + clicks "Commit".
+4. **B.4** `FinaliseImportBatch` — atomic finalize. One EF transaction applies accepted rows to `Equipment` + `ExternalIdReservation`; duration bounded regardless of input size (the atomic step is a bulk-insert, not per-row row-by-row). Rollback = drop batch row via `DropImportBatch`; `Equipment` never partially mutates.
+5. **B.5** Five-identifier search. Rank SQL: exact match any identifier = score 100, prefix match = 50, LIKE-fuzzy (opt-in via `?fuzzy=true`) = 20; tie-break `published > draft` then `RowVersion DESC`. Typeahead shows which field matched via trailing badge.
+6. **B.6** Smoke tests: 100-row CSV with 10 conflicts (5 ZTag dupes, 3 reservation clashes, 2 missing UnsLines); 10k-row perf test asserting finalize txn < 30 s; concurrent import + external `ExternalIdReservation` insert test asserts retryable-conflict handling.

 ### 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.
+1. **D.1** `IdentificationFields.razor` component. Renders the **9 decision #139 fields**: `Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HardwareRevision, SoftwareRevision, YearOfConstruction, AssetLocation, ManufacturerUri, DeviceManualUri`. Labelled inputs; nullable columns show empty input; required-field validation on commit only.
+2. **D.2** `DriverNodeManager` equipment-folder builder — after building the equipment node, inspect the 9 Identification columns; if any non-null, add an `Identification` sub-folder with variable-per-non-null-field. ACL binding: sub-folder + variables inherit the **same `ScopeId` as the Equipment node** (Phase 6.2's trie treats them as part of the Equipment scope — no new scope level).
+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, variables match the field values.
+4. **D.4** ACL integration test: a user with Equipment-level grant reads the `Identification` variables without needing a separate grant; a user without the Equipment grant gets `BadUserAccessDenied` on both the Equipment node + its Identification variables.
 
 ## 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.
+- [ ] **Concurrent-edit safety**: two-session test — session B saves a draft edit after session A opened the preview; session A's Confirm returns `409 Conflict / refresh-required` instead of overwriting.
+- [ ] **Cross-cluster drop**: dropping equipment across cluster boundaries is disabled + shows actionable toast pointing to Export/Import workflow.
+- [ ] **1000-node tree**: drag operations on a 1000-node seed maintain < 100 ms drag-enter feedback.
+- [ ] **CSV header version**: file missing `# OtOpcUaCsv v1` first line is rejected pre-parse.
+- [ ] **CSV canonical identifier set**: columns match decision #117 (ZTag / MachineCode / SAPID / EquipmentId / EquipmentUuid); drift from the earlier draft surfaces as a test failure.
+- [ ] **Staged-import atomicity**: `FinaliseImportBatch` transaction bounded < 30 s for a 10k-row import; pre-finalize stagings visible only to the importing user; rollback via `DropImportBatch`.
+- [ ] **Concurrent import + external reservation**: concurrent test — third party inserts to `ExternalIdReservation` mid-finalize; finalize retries with conflict handling; no corruption.
+- [ ] **5-identifier search ranking**: exact matches outrank prefix matches; published outranks draft for equal scores.
+- [ ] **Diff viewer section caps**: 2000-row subtree-rename diff renders as summary only; "Load full diff" streams in pages.
+- [ ] **OPC 40010 field list match**: rendered field group matches decision #139 exactly; no extra fields.
+- [ ] **OPC 40010 exposure**: Client.CLI browse shows `Identification` sub-folder when equipment has non-null columns; absent when all null.
+- [ ] **ACL inheritance for Identification**: integration test — Equipment-grant user reads Identification; no-grant user gets `BadUserAccessDenied` on both.
+- [ ] **Visual parity reviewer**: named role (`FleetAdmin` user, not the implementation lead) compares side-by-side against `admin-ui.md` §Visual-Design reference panels; signoff artefact is a checked-in screenshot set under `docs/v2/visual-compliance/phase-6-4/`.

Matches the existing `ZB.MOM.WW.*` namespace prefix used throughout the codebase; short by design since this segment appears in every equipment path (`zb/warsaw-west/bldg-3/line-2/cnc-mill-05/RunState`); operators already say "ZB" colloquially. Admin UI cluster-create form default-prefills `zb` for the Enterprise field. Production deployments use it directly from cluster-create | 2026-04-17 |
 | 141 | Tier 3 (AppServer IO) cutover is feasible — AVEVA's OI Gateway supports arbitrary upstream OPC UA servers as a documented pattern | Closes corrections-doc E2 with **GREEN-YELLOW** verdict. Multiple AVEVA partners (Software Toolbox, InSource) have published working integrations against four different non-AVEVA upstream servers (TOP Server, OPC Router, OmniServer, Cogent DataHub). No re-architecting of OtOpcUa required. Path: `OPC UA node → OI Gateway → SuiteLink → $DDESuiteLinkDIObject → AppServer attribute`. Recommended AppServer floor: System Platform 2023 R2 Patch 01. Two integrator-burden risks tracked: validation/GxP paperwork (no AVEVA blueprint exists for non-AVEVA upstream servers in Part 11 deployments) and unpublished scale benchmarks (in-house benchmark required before cutover scheduling). See `aveva-system-platform-io-research.md` | 2026-04-17 |
 | 142 | Phase 1 acceptance includes an end-to-end AppServer-via-OI-Gateway smoke test against OtOpcUa | Catches AppServer-specific quirks (cert exchange via reject-and-trust workflow, endpoint URL must NOT include `/discovery` suffix per Inductive Automation forum failure mode, service-account install required because OI Gateway under SYSTEM cannot connect to remote OPC servers, `Basic256Sha256` + `SignAndEncrypt` + LDAP-username token combination must work end-to-end) early — well before the Year 3 tier-3 cutover schedule. Adds one task to `phase-1-configuration-and-admin-scaffold.md` Stream E (Admin smoke test) | 2026-04-17 |
+| 143 | Polly per-capability policy — Read / HistoryRead / Discover / Probe / Alarm-subscribe auto-retry; Write does NOT auto-retry unless the tag metadata carries `[WriteIdempotent]` | Decisions #44-45 forbid auto-retry on Write because a timed-out write can succeed on the device + be replayed by the pipeline, duplicating pulses / alarm acks / counter increments / recipe-step advances. Per-capability policy in the shared Polly layer makes the retry safety story explicit; `WriteIdempotentAttribute` on tag definitions is the opt-in surface | 2026-04-19 |
+| 144 | Polly pipeline key = `(DriverInstanceId, HostName)`, not DriverInstanceId alone | Decision #35 requires per-device isolation. One dead PLC behind a multi-device Modbus driver must NOT open the circuit breaker for healthy sibling hosts. Per-instance pipelines would poison every device behind one bad endpoint | 2026-04-19 |
+| 145 | Tier A/B/C runtime enforcement splits into `MemoryTracking` (all tiers — soft/hard thresholds log + surface, NEVER kill) and `MemoryRecycle` (Tier C only — requires out-of-process topology). Tier A/B hard-breach logs a promotion-to-Tier-C recommendation; the runtime never auto-kills an in-process driver | Decisions #73-74 reserve process-kill protections for Tier C. An in-process Tier A/B "recycle" would kill every OPC UA session + every other in-proc driver for one leaky instance, blast-radius worse than the leak | 2026-04-19 |
+| 146 | Memory watchdog uses the hybrid formula `soft = max(multiplier × baseline, baseline + floor)`, with baseline captured as the median of the first 5 min of `GetMemoryFootprint()` samples post-InitializeAsync. Tier-specific constants: A multiplier=3 floor=50 MB, B multiplier=3 floor=100 MB, C multiplier=2 floor=500 MB. Hard = 2 × soft | Codex adversarial review on the Phase 6.1 plan flagged that hardcoded per-tier MB bands diverge from decision #70's specified formula. Static bands false-trigger on small-footprint drivers + miss meaningful growth on large ones. Observed-baseline + hybrid formula recovers the original intent | 2026-04-19 |
+| 147 | `WedgeDetector` uses demand-aware criteria `(state==Healthy AND hasPendingWork AND noProgressIn > threshold)`. `hasPendingWork` = (Polly bulkhead depth > 0) OR (active MonitoredItem count > 0) OR (queued historian read count > 0). Idle + subscription-only + write-only-burst drivers stay Healthy without false-fault | Previous "no successful Read in N intervals" formulation flipped legitimate idle subscribers, slow historian backfills, and write-heavy drivers to Faulted. The demand-aware check only fires when the driver claims work is outstanding | 2026-04-19 |
+| 148 | LiteDB config cache is **generation-sealed**: `sp_PublishGeneration` writes `<cache-root>/<cluster>/<generationId>.db` as a read-only sealed file; cache reads serve the last-known-sealed generation. Mixed-generation reads are impossible | Prior "refresh on every successful query" cache could serve LDAP role mapping from one generation alongside UNS topology from another, producing impossible states. Sealed-snapshot invariant keeps cache-served reads coherent with a real published state | 2026-04-19 |
+| 149 | `AuthorizationDecision { Allow \| NotGranted \| Denied, IReadOnlyList<MatchedGrant> Provenance }` — tri-state internal model. Phase 6.2 only produces `Allow` + `NotGranted` (grant-only semantics per decision #129); v2.1 Deny widens without API break | bool return would collapse `no-matching-grant` and `explicit-deny` into the same runtime state + UI explanation; provenance record is needed for the audit log anyway. Making the shape tri-state from Phase 6.2 avoids a breaking change in v2.1 | 2026-04-19 |
+| 150 | Data-plane ACL evaluator consumes `NodeAcl` rows joined against the session's resolved LDAP group memberships. `LdapGroupRoleMapping` (decision #105) is control-plane only — routes LDAP groups to Admin UI roles. Zero runtime overlap between the two | Codex adversarial review flagged that Phase 6.2 draft conflated the two — building the data-plane trie from `LdapGroupRoleMapping` would let a user inherit tag permissions from an admin-role claim path never intended as a data-path grant | 2026-04-19 |
+| 151 | `UserAuthorizationState` cached per session but bounded by `MembershipFreshnessInterval` (default 15 min). Past that interval the next hot-path authz call re-resolves LDAP group memberships; failure to re-resolve (LDAP unreachable) → fail-closed (evaluator returns `NotGranted` until memberships refresh successfully) | Previous design cached memberships until session close, so a user removed from a privileged LDAP group could keep authorized access for hours. Bounded freshness + fail-closed covers the revoke-takes-effect story | 2026-04-19 |
+| 152 | Auth cache has its own staleness budget `AuthCacheMaxStaleness` (default 5 min), independent of decision #36's availability-oriented config cache (24 h). Past 5 min on authorization data, evaluator fails closed regardless of whether the underlying config is still serving from cache | Availability-oriented caches trade correctness for uptime. Authorization data is correctness-sensitive — stale ACLs silently extend revoked access. Auth-specific budget keeps the two concerns from colliding | 2026-04-19 |
+| 153 | MonitoredItem carries `(AuthGenerationId, MembershipVersion)` stamp at create time. On every Publish, items with a mismatching stamp re-evaluate; unchanged items stay fast-path. Revoked items drop to `BadUserAccessDenied` within one publish cycle | Create-time-only authorization leaves revoked users receiving data forever; per-publish re-authorization at 100 ms cadence across 50 groups × 6 levels is too expensive. Stamp-then-reevaluate-on-change balances correctness with cost | 2026-04-19 |
+| 154 | ServiceLevel reserves `0` for operator-declared maintenance only; `1` = NoData (unreachable / Faulted); operational states occupy `2..255` in an 8-state matrix (Authoritative-Primary=255, Isolated-Primary=230, Primary-Mid-Apply=200, Recovering-Primary=180, Authoritative-Backup=100, Isolated-Backup=80, Backup-Mid-Apply=50, Recovering-Backup=30, InvalidTopology=2) | OPC UA Part 5 §6.3.34 defines `0=Maintenance` + `1=NoData`; using `0` for our Faulted case collides with spec + triggers spec-compliant clients to enter maintenance-mode cutover. Expanded 8-state matrix covers operational states the 5-state original collapsed together (e.g. Isolated-Primary vs Primary-Mid-Apply were both 200) | 2026-04-19 |
+| 155 | `ServerUriArray` includes self + peers (self first, deterministic ordering), per OPC UA Part 4 §6.6.2.2 | Previous design excluded self from the array — spec violation + clients lose the ability to map server identities consistently during failover | 2026-04-19 |
+| 156 | Redundancy peer health uses a two-layer probe: `/healthz` (2 s) as fast-fail + `UaHealthProbe` (10 s, opens OPC UA client session to peer + reads its `ServiceLevel` node) as the authority signal. HTTP-healthy ≠ UA-authoritative | `/healthz` returns 200 whenever HTTP + config DB/cache is healthy — but a peer can be HTTP-healthy with a broken OPC UA endpoint or a stuck subscription publisher. Using HTTP alone would advertise authority against servers that can't actually publish data | 2026-04-19 |
+| 157 | Publish-generation fencing — coordinator CAS on a monotonic `ConfigGenerationId`; every topology + role decision is generation-stamped; peers reject state propagated from a lower generation. Runtime `InvalidTopology` state (both self-demote to ServiceLevel 2) when >1 Primary detected post-startup | Operator race publishing two drafts with different roles can produce two locally-valid views; without fencing + runtime containment both nodes can serve as Primary until manual intervention | 2026-04-19 |
+| 158 | Apply-window uses named leases keyed to `(ConfigGenerationId, PublishRequestId)` via `await using`. `ApplyLeaseWatchdog` auto-closes any lease older than `ApplyMaxDuration` (default 10 min) | Simple `IDisposable`-counter design leaks on cancellation / async-ownership races; a stuck positive count leaves the node permanently mid-apply. Generation-keyed leases + watchdog bound worst case | 2026-04-19 |
+| 159 | CSV import header row must start with `# OtOpcUaCsv v1` (version marker). Future shape changes bump the version; parser forks per version. Canonical identifier columns follow decision #117: `ZTag, MachineCode, SAPID, EquipmentId, EquipmentUuid` | Without a version marker the CSV schema has no upgrade path — adding a required column breaks every old export silently. The version prefix makes parser dispatch explicit + future-compatible | 2026-04-19 |
+| 160 | Equipment CSV import uses a staged-import pattern: `EquipmentImportBatch` + `EquipmentImportRow` tables receive chunked inserts; `FinaliseImportBatch` is one atomic transaction that applies accepted rows to `Equipment` + `ExternalIdReservation`. Rollback = drop the batch row; `Equipment` never partially mutates | 10k-row single-transaction import holds locks too long; chunked direct writes lose all-or-nothing rollback. Staging + atomic finalize bounds transaction duration + preserves rollback semantics | 2026-04-19 |
+| 161 | UNS drag-reorder impact preview carries a `DraftRevisionToken`; Confirm re-checks against the current draft + returns `409 Conflict / refresh-required` if the draft advanced between preview and commit | Without concurrency control, two operators editing the same draft can overwrite each other's changes silently. Draft-revision token + 409 response makes the race visible + forces refresh | 2026-04-19 |
+| 162 | OPC 40010 Identification sub-folder exposed under each equipment node inherits the Equipment scope's ACL grants — the ACL trie does NOT add a new scope level for Identification | Adding a new scope level for Identification would require every grant to add a second grant for `Equipment/Identification`; inheriting the Equipment scope keeps the grant model flat + prevents operator-forgot-to-grant-Identification access surprises | 2026-04-19 |

+- Browse + TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds gating with ancestor-visibility logic per `acl-design.md` §Browse.
+- CreateMonitoredItems + TransferSubscriptions gating with per-item `(AuthGenerationId, MembershipVersion)` stamp so revoked grants surface `BadUserAccessDenied` within one publish cycle (decision #153).
+- Alarm Acknowledge / Confirm / Shelve gating.
+- Call (method invocation) gating.
+- Finer-grained scope resolution — current `NodeScopeResolver` returns a flat cluster-level scope. Joining against the live Configuration DB to populate UnsArea / UnsLine / Equipment path is tracked as Stream C.12.
+- 3-user integration matrix covering every operation × allow/deny.
+
+These are additional hardening — the three highest-value surfaces (Read / Write / HistoryRead) are now gated, which covers the base-security gap for v2 GA.
+
+### ~~Config fallback — Phase 6.1 Stream D wiring~~ (task #136 — **CLOSED** 2026-04-19, PR #96)
+
+**Closed**. `SealedBootstrap` consumes `ResilientConfigReader` + `GenerationSealedCache` + `StaleConfigFlag` end-to-end: bootstrap calls go through the timeout → retry → fallback-to-sealed pipeline; every central-DB success writes a fresh sealed snapshot so the next cache-miss has a known-good fallback; `StaleConfigFlag.IsStale` is now consumed by `HealthEndpointsHost.usingStaleConfig` so `/healthz` body reports reality.
+
+Production activation: Program.cs switches `NodeBootstrap → SealedBootstrap` + constructs `OpcUaApplicationHost` with the `StaleConfigFlag` as an optional ctor parameter.
+
+Remaining follow-ups (hardening, not release-blocking):
+
+- A `HostedService` that polls `sp_GetCurrentGenerationForCluster` periodically so peer-published generations land in this node's cache without a restart.
+- Richer snapshot payload via `sp_GetGenerationContent` so fallback can serve the full generation content (DriverInstance enumeration, ACL rows, etc.) from the sealed cache alone.
+
+### ~~Redundancy — Phase 6.3 Streams A/C core~~ (tasks #145 + #147 — **CLOSED** 2026-04-19, PRs #98–99)
+
+**Closed**. The runtime orchestration layer now exists end-to-end:
+
+- `RedundancyCoordinator` reads `ClusterNode` + peer list at startup (Stream A shipped in PR #98). Invariants enforced: 1-2 nodes (decision #83), unique ApplicationUri (#86), ≤1 Primary in Warm/Hot (#84). Startup fails fast on violation; runtime refresh logs + flips `IsTopologyValid=false` so the calculator falls to band 2 without tearing down.
+- `RedundancyStatePublisher` orchestrates topology + apply lease + recovery state + peer reachability through `ServiceLevelCalculator` + emits `OnStateChanged` / `OnServerUriArrayChanged` edge-triggered events (Stream C core shipped in PR #99). The OPC UA `ServiceLevel` Byte variable + `ServerUriArray` String[] variable subscribe to these events.
+
+Remaining Phase 6.3 surfaces (hardening, not release-blocking):
+
+- `PeerHttpProbeLoop` + `PeerUaProbeLoop` HostedServices that poll the peer + write to `PeerReachabilityTracker` on each tick. Without these the publisher sees `PeerReachability.Unknown` for every peer → Isolated-Primary band (230) even when the peer is up. Safe default (retains authority) but not the full non-transparent-redundancy UX.
+- OPC UA variable-node wiring layer: bind the `ServiceLevel` Byte node + `ServerUriArray` String[] node to the publisher's events via `BaseDataVariable.OnReadValue` / direct value push. Scoped follow-up on the Opc.Ua.Server stack integration.
+- `sp_PublishGeneration` wraps its apply in `await using var lease = coordinator.BeginApplyLease(...)` so the `PrimaryMidApply` band (200) fires during actual publishes (task #148 part 2).
+- Client interop matrix validation — Ignition / Kepware / Aveva OI Gateway (Stream F, task #150). Manual + doc-only work; doesn't block code ship.
+
+### Remaining drivers (task #120)
+
+AB CIP, AB Legacy, TwinCAT ADS, FOCAS drivers are planned but unshipped. Decision pending on whether these are release-blocking for v2 GA or can slip to a v2.1 follow-up.
+
+## Nice-to-haves (not release-blocking)
+
+- **Admin UI** — Phase 6.1 Stream E.2/E.3 (`/hosts` column refresh), Phase 6.2 Stream D (`RoleGrantsTab` + `AclsTab` Probe), Phase 6.3 Stream E (`RedundancyTab`), Phase 6.4 Streams A/B UI pieces, Stream C DiffViewer, Stream D `IdentificationFields.razor`. Tasks #134, #144, #149, #153, #155, #156, #157.
+- **Background services** — Phase 6.1 Stream B.4 `ScheduledRecycleScheduler` HostedService (task #137), Phase 6.1 Stream A analyzer (task #135 — Roslyn analyzer asserting every capability surface routes through `CapabilityInvoker`).
+- **Multi-host dispatch** — Phase 6.1 Stream A follow-up (task #135). Currently every driver gets a single pipeline keyed on `driver.DriverInstanceId`; multi-host drivers (Modbus with N PLCs) need per-PLC host resolution so failing PLCs trip per-PLC breakers without poisoning siblings. Decision #144 requires this but we haven't wired it yet.
+
+## Running the release-readiness check
+
+```bash
+pwsh ./scripts/compliance/phase-6-all.ps1
+```
+
+This meta-runner invokes each `phase-6-N-compliance.ps1` script in sequence and reports an aggregate PASS/FAIL. It is the single-command verification that what we claim is shipped still compiles + tests pass + the plan-level invariants are still satisfied.
+
+Exit 0 = every phase passes its compliance checks + no test-count regression.
+
+## Release-readiness exit criteria
+
+v2 GA requires all of the following:
+
+- [ ] All four Phase 6.N compliance scripts exit 0.
+- [ ] `dotnet test ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx` passes with ≤ 1 known-flake failure.
+- [ ] Release blockers listed above all closed (or consciously deferred to v2.1 with a written decision).
+- [ ] Production deployment checklist (separate doc) signed off by Fleet Admin.
+- [ ] At least one end-to-end integration run against the live Galaxy on the dev box succeeds.
+- [ ] OPC UA conformance test (CTT or UA Compliance Test Tool) passes against the live endpoint.
+- [ ] Non-transparent redundancy cutover validated with at least one production client (Ignition 8.3 recommended — see decision #85).
+
+## Change log
+
+- **2026-04-19** — Release blocker #3 **closed** (PRs #98–99). Phase 6.3 Streams A + C core shipped: `ClusterTopologyLoader` + `RedundancyCoordinator` + `RedundancyStatePublisher` + `PeerReachabilityTracker`. Code-path release blockers all closed; remaining Phase 6.3 surfaces (peer-probe HostedServices, OPC UA variable-node binding, sp_PublishGeneration lease wrap, client interop matrix) are hardening follow-ups.
+- **2026-04-19** — Release blocker #2 **closed** (PR #96). `SealedBootstrap` consumes `ResilientConfigReader` + `GenerationSealedCache` + `StaleConfigFlag`; `/healthz` now surfaces the stale flag. Remaining follow-ups (periodic poller + richer snapshot payload) downgraded to hardening.
+- **2026-04-19** — Release blocker #1 **closed** (PR #94). `AuthorizationGate` wired into `DriverNodeManager` Read / Write / HistoryRead dispatch. Remaining Stream C surfaces (Browse / Subscribe / Alarm / Call + finer-grained scope resolution) downgraded to hardening follow-ups — no longer release-blocking.
+- **2026-04-19** — Phase 6.4 data layer merged (PRs #91–92). Phase 6 core complete. Capstone doc created.
+- **2026-04-19** — Phase 6.3 core merged (PRs #89–90). `ServiceLevelCalculator` + `RecoveryStateManager` + `ApplyLeaseRegistry` land as pure logic; coordinator / UA-node wiring / Admin UI / interop deferred.
+- **2026-04-19** — Phase 6.2 core merged (PRs #84–88). `AuthorizationGate` + `TriePermissionEvaluator` + `LdapGroupRoleMapping` land; dispatch wiring + Admin UI deferred.
+- **2026-04-19** — Phase 6.1 shipped (PRs #78–83). Polly resilience + Tier A/B/C stability + health endpoints + LiteDB generation-sealed cache + Admin `/hosts` data layer all live.
