Empirically verified the full ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Tests suite exits cleanly:
- macOS: 0 surviving testhost after a full run.
- windev (origin/main worktree): 0 new testhost and 0 new worker processes
after a full run, isolated by process StartTime.
Static audit confirms the prime-suspect fixtures already dispose deterministically
(WorkerClient cancels _stopCts + awaits its read/write/heartbeat tasks with a 5s
timeout; GatewaySession disposes the client; harness/E2E fixtures use await using).
Drop the stale 'leaves orphaned testhost processes' rationale from CLAUDE.md's
Source Update Workflow; keep filtered-run guidance as a speed guideline only.
Separately discovered (tracked in 00-tracking.md change log, NOT part of TST-08):
Windows-only temp-file-lock flakiness in ~4 full-host test classes (Sqlite
connection-pool retaining a temp .db handle; SelfSignedCertificateProvider's
fixed-name gw.pfx.tmp racing teardown) that macOS never surfaces.
- SEC-02: DashboardAuthorizationHandler restricts the loopback and
Authentication:Mode=Disabled bypasses to read-only. They now satisfy only a
Viewer-bearing requirement (AnyDashboardRole), never AdminOnly, so anonymous
localhost can view the dashboard but cannot reach API-key CRUD or session
Close/Kill at the policy layer (previously guarded only by service re-checks).
- SEC-12: DashboardSessionAdminService emits canonical AuditEvents through
IAuditWriter (actions dashboard-close-session / dashboard-kill-worker, category
SessionAdmin) on Success/Failure/Denied, mirroring the API-key audit path so
destructive session actions leave durable, queryable rows.
- SEC-20: drop the unbounded session_id tag from the exported
mxgateway.heartbeats.failed counter (per-session detail stays in the snapshot/log).
Docs updated same-change: CLAUDE.md (read-only loopback + 5-min bearer),
GatewayDashboardDesign.md (bypass scoping + session-admin audit), Metrics.md.
Server build clean; 30/30 targeted + 295/295 Dashboard/Security/App/Metrics sweep.
Adds the 2026-07-08 architecture review (00-overall + six domain reports)
and a remediation/ tree: one design+implementation doc per domain covering
every finding, plus 00-tracking.md as the master progress tracker.
- 153 findings with stable IDs (GWC/WRK/IPC/SEC/CLI/TST), each with
design rationale, implementation steps, tests, docs, and verification.
- Tracker rolls findings up by severity and P0/P1/P2 roadmap tier, records
cross-cutting clusters and per-finding status (all Not started).
- Planning docs only; no source changes.
