The `windows`/`live-mxaccess` CI jobs were removed in abb0930 because Gitea
act_runner host-mode on Windows is broken and a runs-on gate with no runner
wedges the queue. This left the entire x86/net48 Worker + Worker.Tests tier
(and the live-MXAccess smoke) unguarded by CI.
Restore it without a native Windows runner: Linux jobs on ubuntu-latest (which
always schedule) SSH to windev (10.100.0.48), fetch+checkout the SHA under test
in an isolated clone C:\build\mxaccessgw-ci, run the x86 build/tests there, and
propagate the remote exit code back — so a Worker regression turns the job red
and an unreachable host fails loud (never stuck).
- scripts/ci/run-windev-ci.sh: Linux driver (key/known-hosts, UTF-16LE base64
EncodedCommand bootstrap, ssh, exit-code passthrough).
- scripts/ci/windev-worker-ci.ps1: windev stage — worktree lock, re-fetch/
checkout under lock, build|test|live modes; PS 5.1-safe, checks $LASTEXITCODE.
- scripts/ci/windev.known_hosts: pinned host keys for StrictHostKeyChecking.
- scripts/ci/README.md: operator bring-up + acceptance checklist.
- ci.yml: windows-x86 (per-push `test`) + nightly-windev (scheduled `live` +
on-failure Gitea issue); drop the removal note; fix header/cron comments.
TST-26 (same commit, by rule): correct docs/scripts that still describe the
removed jobs — GatewayTesting.md, Contracts.md, check-codegen.ps1 — and
reattribute the Generated/-commit guard (primary = check-codegen diff in the
portable job; secondary = windows-x86 net48 compile).
Mechanism hand-verified on windev: build->0, bogus-SHA->nonzero (lock released),
test->356 passed/0 failed in ~50s, ssh exit-code propagation confirmed. Merge
requires operator bring-up first (dedicated ci@ key + Gitea secrets) or the
per-push job is red every push — see scripts/ci/README.md.
Make the authored CI pipeline execute and go green on the co-located runner (portable + java), fix the five real latent defects the first real run surfaced (codegen-check null, stale rust proto, orphan-terminator Linux path, stale java worker codegen, py3.12 event loop), provision pwsh + Gradle for the self-hosted act image, and disable the Windows jobs (act host-mode broken). TST-03 -> Done.

- IPC-01: regenerate the stale client descriptor set and add ClientProtoInputTests
(semantic, protoc-free) so a missing contract symbol fails the build.
- IPC-20: make publish-client-proto-inputs.ps1 -Check source_code_info-normalized
so it is protoc-version tolerant.
- IPC-19: document + guard the "Generated/ must be committed for net48" rule
(docs/Contracts.md, csproj comment, check-codegen.ps1).
- IPC-09: harden the per-client generate-proto scripts (PATH resolution + pinned
grpcio/protobuf/java version asserts) so regeneration is reproducible.
- TST-03: add .gitea/workflows/ci.yml (portable/java/windows/live jobs) running the
build, tests, client checks, and the codegen guards.
- Also: check-codegen.ps1 Check 3 guards the CLI-02 vendored Rust protos against drift.
archreview: IPC-01/09/19/20 Done, TST-03 In review (pipeline authored + validated,
not yet run on a Gitea runner). Verified on macOS: NonWindows build clean,
ClientProtoInputTests 5/5, -Check exit 0.
