Preliminary acceptance matrix

2026-11-02. NO-GO for production. This is a discovery snapshot, not Stage 7 final acceptance. No accepted final RC or production-equivalent build is nominated. PASS applies only to an executed gate, not historical source evidence.

Mandatory gate Current release verdict Missing release evidence / dependency
Functional regression BLOCKED Accepted final roadmap source; fresh applicable critical journeys
Frontend/UX BLOCKED Accepted design/implementation and final source-bound browser evidence
Accessibility NOT TESTED Actual AT/device/contrast/manual evidence plus automation
Authentication/authorization NOT TESTED Final endpoint/tenant/session qualification
Security assessment BLOCKED Dedicated security initiative start and predecessor gates; no scan run
Backend APIs NOT TESTED Final API census and applicable regression
MariaDB/migrations BLOCKED Hosted isolation and actual RC upgrade/recovery evidence; five offline guards are not this gate
CV/PDF fidelity BLOCKED Final RC source equivalence and retained scoped approvals; physical print still missing
AI integrations BLOCKED Explicit isolated-model qualification and semantic evidence
Email/OAuth BLOCKED Actual configured provider/consent/account verification
Performance/reliability NOT TESTED Approved load targets and bounded final-source measurements
Docker/infrastructure NOT TESTED Exact images/environment/configuration/ingress parity
CI/CD BLOCKED Hosted isolation and fresh actual run/artifacts
Backup/restore NOT TESTED Disposable complete recovery rehearsal with content assertions
Deployment/rollback NOT TESTED Authorised isolated rehearsal; production execution remains prohibited
Monitoring NOT TESTED Failure detection, delivery and redaction evidence
Documentation NOT TESTED Complete release-source/runbook reconciliation, beyond this partial discovery
Human/device/provider BLOCKED Real reviewers/devices/accounts and source-bound records

No gate is marked FAIL without fresh evidence of unacceptable behavior. No missing qualification is marked PASS. Historical source-specific acceptance may be reused where permitted and unchanged, but cannot establish final release readiness by itself.
