# GovOPlaN Capability and IT-Infrastructure Fit Assessment

## Assessment record

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Assessment ID | `campaign-reference-2026-07-22` |
| Schema | `govoplan.fit-assessment/0.1.0` |
| Assessed on | 2026-07-22 |
| Product snapshot | Live Ed25519-signed stable catalog sequence `202607220843`: Core `v0.1.13` and Campaign `v0.1.10` |
| Configuration basis | Root `.env.example` and the production-like development profile |
| Scope | Campaign-centric internal pilot and small-production candidate |
| Explicitly postponed | Workflow and workflow-driven user stories |
| Machine-readable companion | [`capability-fit-current.json`](capability-fit-current.json) |
| Input schema | [`capability-fit.schema.json`](capability-fit.schema.json) |

This is a fit assessment, not a production approval or security certification.
It deliberately does not infer implementation from a repository, issue, or
manifest existing. A conclusion needs code plus a route/contract, test,
operational drill, configured example, or explicit evidence that the capability
is absent.

The release baseline below is reproducible at its tagged source and package
references. Later main-branch commits do not become release capabilities merely
because they are committed, pushed, or code-tested. This assessment therefore
distinguishes code-tested, package-integrated, target-tested, and
production-approved evidence explicitly.

## Controlled status vocabulary

| Status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `verified` | The stated capability is implemented and directly exercised by evidence appropriate to the stated scope. Conditions and target-environment proof may still remain. |
| `available_unconfigured` | An implementation and supporting evidence exist, but the target endpoint, credentials, policy, or deployment component has not been configured and exercised. |
| `partial` | A useful subset exists, but one or more material parts of the stated journey or operational requirement are missing or unproved. |
| `scaffold` | Contracts, models, routes, or UI structure exist, but the end-to-end capability is not yet usable. |
| `external_system` | GovOPlaN expects the deployment or another system to supply this capability; integration requirements must still be assessed. |
| `planned` | The capability is represented only by a concept, backlog item, or design direction. |
| `not_fit` | Evidence shows that the current composition cannot meet the stated requirement. |
| `not_assessed` | The requirement or target environment is not sufficiently known to reach a conclusion. |

Status alone is not enough. Every row also states its evidence scope and
conditions. For example, a unit-tested SMTP adapter is
`available_unconfigured`, not `verified` for an organization's mail system.

## Executive conclusion

GovOPlaN is a credible candidate for a controlled, Campaign-centric internal
pilot using local accounts, PostgreSQL, durable single-node file storage, and a
non-production SMTP/IMAP service. The module contract, Campaign authoring and
validation paths, managed attachments, mail-profile boundary, local audit
records, and operator status surface all have direct code/test evidence.

The signed catalog resolves the earlier source/package reproducibility gap, but
it does not make the composition production-approved. The production-like
profile intentionally runs only PostgreSQL and Redis in containers; API,
WebUI, worker, and scheduler processes still run from editable source trees. A
target deployment must supply TLS termination, process supervision, secret
injection, monitoring, backup storage, and recovery procedures. The open
[Core backup/restore issue #29](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-core/issues/29)
is a production gate. Identity federation, external audit export, and a tested
disaster-recovery plan are also not complete.

The current recommendation is therefore:

- **Pilot:** fit with conditions and a bounded proof of concept.
- **Small production:** partial fit; do not approve until the proof checks and
  operational gates below pass against the signed release and target
  environment.
- **Workflow:** planned and postponed; it is not part of either recommended
  composition in this assessment.

## Pinned composition

The configured reference composition comes from the meta repository's
`ENABLED_MODULES`. Versions and refs below are pinned by the live stable catalog;
commits are the commits peeled from those annotated tags.

| Module | Tagged source commit | Catalog version/ref | Role in this assessment |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Core runtime | `govoplan-core@d487726f4d2c` | `0.1.13` / `v0.1.13` | API, registry, migration orchestration, shared WebUI, sessions and kernel contracts |
| `tenancy` | `govoplan-tenancy@efbec827616b` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | tenant context and lifecycle |
| `organizations` | `govoplan-organizations@39c081c4fb8f` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | organization model |
| `identity` | `govoplan-identity@7a1710af896f` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | normalized internal identity directory |
| `access` | `govoplan-access@f1d64d247e12` | `0.1.11` / `v0.1.11` | local authentication, sessions, API keys and RBAC |
| `admin` | `govoplan-admin@11ecf362a36d` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | administration surfaces |
| `dashboard` | `govoplan-dashboard@4b960ad37f0d` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | module-aware home surface |
| `policy` | `govoplan-policy@1063622d311a` | `0.1.9` / `v0.1.9` | policy explanation/configuration boundary |
| `audit` | `govoplan-audit@d3d2c60d7dc1` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | database audit records and retrying audit outbox |
| `campaigns` | `govoplan-campaign@735e874bd03c` | `0.1.10` / `v0.1.10` | Campaign authoring, build, delivery control and reporting |
| `files` | `govoplan-files@2b34f6e30578` | `0.1.9` / `v0.1.9` | managed files and Campaign attachments |
| `mail` | `govoplan-mail@3e2302909022` | `0.1.10` / `v0.1.10` | SMTP/IMAP profiles and transports |
| `calendar` | `govoplan-calendar@9bcf41bb1fbb` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | optional calendar; not needed by the Campaign pilot |
| `docs` | `govoplan-docs@be52b716caed` | `0.1.10` / `v0.1.10` | configured-system documentation |
| `ops` | `govoplan-ops@341773a4ff8a` | `0.1.8` / `v0.1.8` | readiness and deployment-profile visibility |

Stable catalog sequence `202607220843` is valid, signed by trusted key
`release-key-1`, and pins matching Python and WebUI refs where applicable. This
proves release source/package selection and provenance, not behavior in a target
environment. No configuration revision/package is pinned yet, so deployment
configuration remains a separate reproducibility and promotion gate. The static
contract scan found 43 interface contracts, 33 providers, and no contract errors
in the current workspace. That proves the scanned manifest graph is internally
consistent; it does not prove every provider or production journey.

`govoplan-addresses@93dddbb8c52a` (`0.1.9` / `v0.1.9`) is an optional catalogued
extension for reusable recipient sources. It is not enabled in the pinned root
profile and must be added explicitly when the pilot needs address lists or
CardDAV.

## Recommended scenarios

### Campaign pilot

Use one internal tenant or office, controlled operators, local GovOPlaN accounts,
and non-critical recipient volumes. Enable:

```text
tenancy,organizations,identity,access,admin,dashboard,policy,audit,campaigns,files,mail,docs,ops
```

Add `addresses` only when reusable address books/lists or CardDAV are in scope.
Leave Calendar and Workflow out unless the pilot has an explicit journey for
them. The minimum topology is one supervised API process, one built WebUI, one
PostgreSQL database, durable local file storage, and one Redis/Celery worker when
asynchronous delivery is enabled. Use a dedicated non-production SMTP/IMAP
account and a restricted recipient allow-list.

### Small-production candidate

Use a reverse proxy/TLS endpoint, built WebUI assets, separately supervised API
and worker processes, PostgreSQL with measured backup/restore, Redis with
persistence, and durable shared or object storage. Run one scheduler only when a
selected module needs scheduled recovery. Multiple scheduler replicas require
leader election or an external lock, which is not established by this report.

This topology is a recommendation from the [Ops scalability profiles](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-ops/src/branch/main/docs/SCALABILITY_PROFILES.md),
not a currently shipped production Compose/Kubernetes/systemd package.

## Functional capability matrix

| Capability | Status | Evidence and scope | Conditions, gaps, or exclusions |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Module-aware API/WebUI composition | `verified` | Core registry tests cover installed manifests, route contribution, missing modules, and module permutations; the static contract scan passed; stable catalog sequence `202607220843` has a valid trusted signature and matching package refs. | Package integration is verified; repeat the module-permutation checks on the installed target composition. |
| Local tenants, accounts, sessions, API keys and RBAC | `verified` | Access/tenancy manifests, auth dependency tests, cookie/CSRF API smoke tests, and role/permission contracts. | External identity providers are not included in this conclusion. |
| Campaign draft authoring, validation, recipient import, build, execution snapshot and mock send | `verified` | Core API smoke tests exercise create/validate/build/mock-send, frozen delivery configuration, policy gates, job deltas and reconciliation; Campaign-focused tests passed; Campaign `v0.1.10` and Core `v0.1.13` are package-integrated in the signed stable catalog. | Code and package integration are verified; usability and target-provider acceptance remain separate. |
| Managed Campaign attachments and local file storage | `verified` | Files capability/route tests, Campaign attachment-build tests, and local-storage backend code. | The deployment must provide a durable path and include files in database/storage backup plans. |
| SMTP send, IMAP append and mailbox/profile policy | `available_unconfigured` | Mail adapters, encrypted profile model, helper tests, Campaign mail-policy smoke tests, and a GreenMail-oriented runbook/testbed. | No target mail server, TLS chain, throttling, sender policy, bounce/reply process, or real delivery receipt was exercised here. |
| Delivery retry, uncertainty and reconciliation | `partial` | Campaign API smoke tests include worker-loss/outcome-unknown reconciliation and frozen job evidence; those paths are present in catalogued Campaign `v0.1.10`. | A target-provider failure drill and operational alerting are still required; package integration does not prove provider behavior. |
| Reusable address lists and Campaign recipient-source integration | `available_unconfigured` | Address list/recipient capability and Campaign optional lookup tests passed; manifests expose optional interfaces. | `addresses` is not in the pinned profile. Configure permissions and data governance before use. |
| CardDAV address synchronization | `available_unconfigured` | Discovery, preview/conflict, two-way create/update/delete and disconnect tests passed in the current Addresses workspace. | Requires target-server interoperability, credentials, CA/TLS, rate-limit, conflict and restore drills. |
| File connectors (WebDAV/Nextcloud/Seafile/SMB/S3 import) | `partial` | Provider descriptors and browse/import helper tests exist; S3 connector tests passed. | Coverage varies by provider and optional dependency. No target content system was exercised; connector egress and provenance policy need review. |
| Local audit log and governed-event retry outbox | `verified` | Audit module contract plus enqueue/dispatch/failure-for-retry tests passed. | Central audit/SIEM export, retention enforcement and operational monitoring are not verified. |
| Configured-system documentation and Ops status pages | `verified` | Docs/Ops manifests contribute protected routes and WebUI packages; Ops code checks database, Redis, workers, storage and deployment-security settings. | This does not replace external monitoring or a target runbook. |
| Calendar/CalDAV integration | `partial` | Calendar `v0.1.8` supplies the catalogued storage/sync foundation. The durable external-write outbox, worker recovery, reconciliation, and retention work is committed, tested, and pushed on Calendar `main` after that tag. | The post-tag outbox work is remote-integrated source, not local-only WIP, but it is not in the signed stable package baseline and has not passed a target CalDAV drill. Bulk synchronized-calendar migration semantics remain separate work. |
| External LDAP/AD, OIDC/SAML or SCIM identity integration | `scaffold` | IDM owns normalized assignment APIs and documents connector boundaries. | Provider connectors, login callback flow and target directory reconciliation are not an implemented end-to-end capability. Use local accounts for this pilot. |
| Export-control/embargo-list screening | `planned` | Product-level [GovOPlaN #12](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan/issues/12) defines the consumer-independent user story. | No screening provider, list provenance, matching policy, review flow or legal evidence exists in this composition. |
| Workflow-driven journeys and views | `planned` | Workflow contracts/concepts exist outside this assessment. | Explicitly postponed. Do not include Workflow in pilot or production claims from this report. |

## Infrastructure matrix

| Component | Status | Current evidence | Target requirement / gap |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| WebUI and API | `verified` | FastAPI app, module routes, shared WebUI host, health endpoint, dev smoke and module-permutation tests; the catalog pins matching Core/Campaign backend and WebUI refs. | Materialize and supervise immutable artifacts in the target; no production image/service bundle is supplied here. |
| Background workers | `available_unconfigured` | Celery app, Campaign queues, Redis configuration and production-like launcher. | Run target broker/worker heartbeat and failure drills; split queues when provider limits or load justify it. |
| Scheduler | `partial` | A separately launched Celery beat process exists; Calendar recovery scheduling is committed and pushed after the catalogued `v0.1.8` tag. | The Calendar recovery slice is not stable-package-integrated. Keep single-instance until leader election/locking is proved; add process supervision and missed-schedule alerts. |
| PostgreSQL | `verified` | Production target in settings/operator docs, migration tracks and a disposable integration-check harness. | Target HA, patching, connection limits, WAL/archive policy and restore time are external deployment decisions. |
| Redis/queues | `available_unconfigured` | Redis-backed Celery configuration, health ping and append-only production-like container. | Target availability, persistence, eviction, authentication/TLS and queue-loss behavior were not assessed. |
| Local file storage | `verified` | Local backend, configured root, fallback-root tests and Ops writability check. | Suitable only for a durable single-node/shared path with backup; it blocks independent API scaling when node-local. |
| S3-compatible object storage | `partial` | S3 backend and connector code plus mocked browse/import tests. | Exercise the chosen service, credentials, CA, versioning, lifecycle, multipart/size behavior, restore and consistency expectations. |
| Reverse proxy and TLS | `external_system` | Core validates explicit CORS and secure-cookie posture; Ops reports unsafe production settings. | Deployment must provide certificates, proxy/header policy, request limits, logs and renewal monitoring. |
| Local identity and authorization | `verified` | Password/session/API-key/RBAC capabilities and tests. | Establish account lifecycle, MFA expectation, protected bootstrap and break-glass procedure. |
| Federated identity | `scaffold` | IDM boundary and assignment APIs. | Select and implement/test the actual OIDC/SAML/LDAP/SCIM path before requiring federation. |
| Application secret encryption | `verified` | Stable `MASTER_KEY_B64` contract and encrypted mail-credential paths. | Rotation and loss-recovery procedure need target validation. |
| Secret store and injection | `external_system` | Environment/file references are supported and templates avoid populated secrets. | Choose Vault/KMS/Kubernetes/systemd/environment mechanism, restrict access, rotate credentials and prevent secret exposure in logs/backups. |
| SMTP/IMAP and other connectors | `available_unconfigured` | Protocol adapters and development testbeds. | Target endpoints, egress, DNS, CA, throttling, service accounts and data-processing terms remain environment-specific. |
| Health/readiness | `verified` | `/health`, protected `/health/details`, and Ops checks for DB, Redis, workers, storage, maintenance and cookie/CORS posture. | Add external probes and distinguish liveness from dependency readiness for the chosen orchestrator. |
| Metrics, logs and alerting | `partial` | Correlation IDs, slow-request/query metrics in logs, worker inspection and operator status are implemented. | No bundled metrics exporter, log collector, dashboards, queue-depth alerts, pager route or SLO is verified. |
| Audit | `partial` | Local audit tables and retry outbox are verified. | Retention, tamper-evident export, privileged access review and SIEM integration are unproved. |
| Backup and restore | `partial` | Operator guide and installer hooks describe `pg_dump`/`pg_restore`; SQLite and simulated installer rollback drills exist. | [Core #29](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-core/issues/29) remains open. No target PostgreSQL + files + secrets restore drill or measured RTO/RPO exists. |
| Disaster recovery | `not_assessed` | The Ops guide asks for RPO/RTO and restore drills. | No agreed RPO/RTO, off-site copy, failover topology, dependency recovery order, communications plan or exercise evidence was supplied. |

The scalability and sizing documentation delivered the documentation portions
of [Core #217](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-core/issues/217) and
[Core #219](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-core/issues/219).
[Core #28](https://git.add-ideas.de/add-ideas/govoplan-core/issues/28) records the
operator-documentation slice. These closed tickets are evidence of documented
models, not evidence that an organization's production environment has passed
them.

## Trust, data-flow and network boundaries

| Boundary / flow | Data and trust | Required controls |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Browser -> reverse proxy -> WebUI/API | Session and CSRF cookies, campaign content, recipient personal data and managed files cross the public/client boundary. | HTTPS, exact origins, secure cookies, request/body limits, tenant/RBAC enforcement, security headers and access logs. |
| API -> PostgreSQL | Tenants, identities, permissions, campaign drafts/snapshots/jobs, connector metadata and audit evidence enter the primary trusted data store. | Dedicated DB identity, encrypted transport where networked, least privilege, migration control, backup/restore and retention. |
| API/worker -> file/object storage | Campaign attachments and generated evidence may contain personal or confidential content. | Private buckets/paths, encryption, scoped credentials, malware/content policy where required, lifecycle and coordinated restore. |
| API -> Redis -> worker | Queue messages and job identifiers cross from request processing to an asynchronous trust zone. PostgreSQL remains the durable business-state authority. | Private/authenticated broker, bounded payloads, idempotent claims, queue monitoring and worker isolation. |
| Worker -> SMTP/IMAP | Recipient addresses, message bodies and attachments leave GovOPlaN; IMAP append stores a sent copy externally. | Approved service account, TLS/CA policy, recipient/sender policy, rate limits, outcome reconciliation and disclosure/legal basis. |
| Connector worker -> CardDAV/WebDAV/Seafile/SMB/S3/CalDAV | Address data, files or calendars cross an organizational/system boundary in both directions depending on connector mode. | Explicit direction, scoped credentials, endpoint allow-list, provenance, conflict policy, retry/reconciliation and target interoperability test. |
| Operator -> installer/catalog/migration plane | A highly privileged process can mutate packages, schemas and desired module state. | Separate operator identity, signed/pinned catalogs, maintenance mode, immutable run records, backups, rollback checks and restricted network access. |
| API/audit -> monitoring or SIEM | Operational metadata and potentially personal audit context may leave GovOPlaN. | Data minimization, retention/access policy, authenticated transport, integrity and documented processor/location. No sink is verified today. |

Typical network requirements are inbound HTTPS to the deployment proxy and
private connectivity from API/workers to PostgreSQL and Redis. Outbound access
may be required to SMTP submission, IMAP, HTTPS-based connectors/object storage,
DNS, NTP, certificate validation, monitoring and the signed module catalog.
Ports and destinations must come from the selected infrastructure; common
defaults such as PostgreSQL 5432, Redis 6379, SMTP 465/587 and IMAP 993 are not
an allow-list.

## Known assumptions, gaps and risks

Facts:

- The production-like profile is a development validation composition, not a
  production deployment artifact.
- The assessed package baseline is the trusted, signed stable catalog sequence
  `202607220843`; it pins Core `v0.1.13` and Campaign `v0.1.10`.
- Workflow is postponed.
- The default composition does not enable Addresses.
- Health/readiness checks exist; an external monitoring stack does not.

Assumptions that require confirmation:

- The pilot can use local accounts and one internal tenant/office.
- A controlled non-production SMTP/IMAP account and safe recipients are
  available.
- Campaign volume is below the measured limits of a single worker and database.
- Local durable storage is acceptable for the pilot and all recipient data has
  an approved legal basis and retention policy.

Highest risks:

1. A signed, reproducible package selection can still be installed or configured
   incorrectly and has not been accepted in the target environment.
2. Real SMTP/IMAP behavior, throttling and ambiguous outcomes have not been
   proven against the target provider.
3. Backup/restore and disaster recovery are not demonstrated across database,
   files, keys and deployment configuration.
4. External identity, monitoring, secret-store and reverse-proxy controls are
   deployment gaps rather than GovOPlaN-delivered components.
5. Post-tag Calendar work is committed and pushed but remains outside the signed
   stable package baseline; branch integration must not be mistaken for a
   release.
6. Data classification, retention, recipient consent/legal basis and external
   disclosure rules are not assessed for a concrete organization.

## Proof checks before promotion

1. Materialize the signed catalog into an isolated installation and rerun the
   contract, migration, module-permutation, and focused acceptance gates against
   the installed artifacts.
2. Run a target-like Campaign from import through validation, attachment build,
   queue, SMTP acceptance, IMAP append, reporting and audit using safe data.
3. Drill transient SMTP failure, accepted-but-local-commit-lost uncertainty,
   worker restart, Redis interruption and manual reconciliation without a
   duplicate send.
4. Restore PostgreSQL, managed files, configuration and encrypted credentials
   into an isolated environment; measure RPO and RTO.
5. Validate proxy/TLS, CORS, cookies, headers, body limits, account bootstrap,
   maintenance access and secret redaction.
6. Measure representative recipient/file volume, queue age, database growth,
   send rate and provider throttling; set capacity and alert thresholds.
7. Confirm audit/retention/privacy/legal requirements and any SIEM or archive
   export before using production personal data.

## Reusable assessment questionnaire

Answers should contain no secrets and no unnecessary personal data. Each answer
must be marked `answered`, `assumed`, `not_applicable`, or `not_assessed` and may
link evidence.

### Scope and outcomes

- What outcome and reference journey must GovOPlaN support?
- Which users, roles, tenants, organization units and delegated functions take
  part?
- Which journey steps are mandatory, optional, manual, external, or explicitly
  postponed?
- What constitutes pilot success and production acceptance?

### Data, privacy, records and policy

- Which data classes enter database, files, messages, calendars, addresses,
  logs and audit evidence?
- What are the legal basis, purpose, minimization, access, residency, retention,
  deletion, archive and legal-hold requirements?
- Which external systems/processors receive data, and in which jurisdictions?
- Which decisions require four-eyes approval, explainability or immutable
  evidence?

### Identity and integrations

- Are local accounts acceptable, or are OIDC, SAML, LDAP/AD or SCIM mandatory?
- What are the MFA, joiner/mover/leaver, service-account and break-glass rules?
- Which SMTP/IMAP, file/DMS, CardDAV/CalDAV, ERP, API or event endpoints are in
  scope? Record protocol/version, direction, auth, CA, rate limit and owner.
- Which integrations may be unavailable, and what degraded/manual behavior is
  acceptable?

### Workload and growth

- Tenants, named/active/concurrent users and peak requests?
- Campaigns per period, recipients per Campaign, send window, attachment sizes,
  import size and retry peak?
- Managed files, database and audit volume now and over the retention window?
- Connector batches, queue depth/age, scheduled jobs and external rate limits?

### Availability, hosting and operations

- Required service hours, planned maintenance, availability, RPO and RTO?
- Hosting, network zones, egress/proxy/DNS/NTP/CA, data-residency and
  air-gap constraints?
- Who operates PostgreSQL, Redis, storage, TLS, identity, secrets, monitoring,
  backups and incident response?
- What deployment, patch, migration, rollback, restore and DR drills must pass?

### Procurement and decisions

- Required open-source/license, support, accessibility, security, certification,
  interoperability and procurement conditions?
- Which requirements are blockers, accepted risks, residual risks or later
  roadmap work?
- Who owns each decision, evidence item and next review date?

For every capability and infrastructure conclusion, record the requirement,
status from the controlled vocabulary, evidence scope, evidence links,
assumptions, gaps, risks, recommendation and proof check. Reassessment must pin a
new composition and review any row whose code, evidence, configuration or target
requirement changed.

### Repeatable release rerun

The release-aware rerun tool validates the machine-readable assessment against
its JSON Schema, verifies the catalog's Ed25519 signature against an
independently pinned local trust keyring, and separately verifies the canonical
hash of the published or candidate keyring pinned by the signed catalog. The
downloaded keyring is therefore never its own sole trust root. The tool compares
catalog sequence and module versions and—when local checkouts are available—checks
annotated release tags against assessed commits. For repositories represented in
signed `release.selected_units`, both the peeled commit and annotated tag-object
ID must match exactly; re-annotating an unchanged commit requires review.
Release drift produces a machine-readable list of affected capability and
infrastructure conclusions instead of silently carrying their prior status
forward:

```bash
./.venv/bin/python tools/assessments/capability-fit.py \
  --public \
  --trusted-keyring /srv/govoplan/trust/catalog-keyring.json
```

Use `--catalog CATALOG --keyring PUBLISHED_OR_CANDIDATE_KEYRING
--trusted-keyring PINNED_LOCAL_KEYRING` for an offline or release-candidate
rerun. `GOVOPLAN_MODULE_PACKAGE_CATALOG_TRUSTED_KEYS_FILE` may provide the
independently managed local trust-root path instead. During key rotation this
local file may contain both current and `next` keys within their validity
windows; revoked, disabled and retired keys are rejected. Do not establish this
trust file by downloading it in the same rerun. Public JSON responses are
bounded to 16 MiB. Use `--json` or `--output PATH` for automation.

Exit status `0` means the assessed release metadata is current, `2` means
explicit review is required, and `1` means the schema or trust checks are
blocked. The machine report distinguishes independent signature trust,
published-keyring hash agreement, and local-tag proof. Local-tag proof is only
marked checked when every composition entry is available for comparison and was
attempted. A successful rerun proves only the assessment schema, signed catalog
metadata, published-keyring integrity and optional local tag provenance; it does
not prove installed artifacts, target providers, target infrastructure, or
production fitness. Those remain separate proof checks above.

- [Live signed stable catalog](https://govoplan.add-ideas.de/catalogs/v1/channels/stable.json)
  and [published keyring](https://govoplan.add-ideas.de/catalogs/v1/keyring.json),
  verified against a separately provisioned local trust keyring
- Annotated source tags `govoplan-core/v0.1.13` and
  `govoplan-campaign/v0.1.10`, including their catalogued Python and WebUI refs

Checks retained from the first assessment slice against its then-current
workspace:

- static manifest/interface contract scan: 43 contracts, 29 providers, no issues
- selected Core module-composition, auth/CSRF, health, Campaign journey,
  reconciliation and install-configuration tests: 14 passed
- Campaign tests: 14 passed
- Files tests: 14 passed
- Mail tests: 22 passed
- Audit tests: 5 passed
- Addresses tests: 14 passed (one non-failing SQLite resource warning)
- JSON Schema validation of the machine-readable assessment: passed

Refresh checks on 2026-07-22:

- live stable catalog sequence `202607220843`: valid Ed25519 signature trusted
  through `release-key-1`, no validator warnings
- current static contract scan: 43 modules, 33 providers, 19 requirements, no
  contract errors
- catalog-selected commits: Core `d487726f4d2c` at `v0.1.13` and Campaign
  `735e874bd03c` at `v0.1.10`; local and remote release refs agree
- Campaign's immutable `v0.1.10` tag object and peeled commit exactly match the
  remote tag and catalog record; Calendar durable outbox work is committed and
  pushed after catalogued `v0.1.8`
- JSON Schema validation of the refreshed machine-readable assessment: passed

These checks are evidence for the rows above; they are not a substitute for the
installed-release and target-environment proof checks.
