V1R4C4 SR-01 Deployment Acceptance: Gitea Branch Consistency Sentinel

Date: 2026-07-10

Status: healthy

Baseline at validation: V1R4C3

Runtime status at record time: active

Acceptance Summary

The Gitea branch consistency sentinel is deployed and operating successfully.

Observed service result:

{
  "status": "healthy",
  "unhealthy_checks": []
}

No unhealthy checks were reported.

Implemented Components

1. Sentinel script

Path:

/data/aios-gitops/workspace/scripts/reliability/gitea_branch_consistency_sentinel.py

Purpose:

  • compare Gitea branch metadata against actual Git branch state;
  • detect branch metadata drift;
  • emit structured JSON result;
  • optionally emit autonomous safe-mode state when unhealthy.

The deployed check compares Gitea branch metadata available through the local Gitea endpoint against the actual git branches in the repository directory.

Endpoint used:

127.0.0.1:3000

2. Safe-mode helper

Path:

/data/aios-gitops/workspace/scripts/reliability/autonomous_safe_mode.py

Purpose:

  • provide safe-mode output/formatting helper;
  • support autonomous controller behavior when drift is detected.

3. systemd timer

Unit:

gitea-branch-consistency-sentinel.timer

Schedule:

every 5 minutes

Purpose:

  • continuously monitor Gitea branch consistency;
  • reduce mean time to detection for branch metadata drift;
  • provide recurring health evidence.

4. systemd service

Unit:

gitea-branch-consistency-sentinel.service

Execution:

gitea_branch_consistency_sentinel.py --emit-safe-mode --json

Purpose:

  • execute consistency sentinel;
  • log structured JSON output;
  • emit safe-mode state when the sentinel becomes unhealthy.

A broken reliability directory symlink pointing outside the workspace was replaced with actual files.

Reason:

  • systemd sandboxing prevents following the prior external symlink safely;
  • deploying actual files inside the workspace makes service execution deterministic.

Reliability Impact

This closes the core SR-01 monitoring gap:

Gitea branch metadata drift
        ↓
detected within timer interval
        ↓
structured JSON health record
        ↓
autonomous safe-mode emission if unhealthy

The timer now provides continuous verification every 5 minutes.

Current Result

status: healthy
unhealthy_checks: none
timer: active every 5 minutes
service: emits JSON with --emit-safe-mode

Acceptance Decision

SR-01 deployment guardrail is accepted as healthy for V1R4C4 reliability freeze readiness.

This does not yet promote V1R4C4. It provides one required acceptance input for V1R4C4.

Remaining Before V1R4C4 Promotion

  1. Confirm SR-02 watcher cleanup remains test-green after integration.
  2. Run GitOps runtime acceptance:
getRuntimeStatus -> getBaseline -> createBranch -> createPatch
  1. Confirm no new Gitea branch metadata drift after acceptance writes.
  2. Prepare V1R4C4 reliability baseline proposal.
  3. Keep SR-04 Portal AIOS Integration gated until SR-01 and SR-02 are both accepted.
