FLUID-WP-0007 - Conformance and self-validation

Prove the loop mechanically before a real workload depends on it. Everything here runs in CI with no human steps and no external services.

T01 - Echo interface fixture

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "95b8d512-698c-5201-8f8d-18ff0a658f2c"

examples/echo-interface — two revisions, R-1 deliberately inefficient (list then filter), R-2 the convenience form. This is the smallest honest reproduction of the Blueprint §33 worked example.

T02 - Minimal conformance assertions

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "71724683-78be-568c-bcd4-12df97e53941"

The seven requirements of API Standards §36, asserted as tests rather than claimed in a README.

T03 - Architectural invariant checks

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "0ac5c378-038c-5c76-b082-d4868f9bb12b"

The mechanically checkable subset of Blueprint §55. Invariant 2 (evolution can stop without stopping the API) and invariant 9 (AI-generated artifacts untrusted until verified) matter most and get dedicated tests.

T04 - Failure containment matrix

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T04
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "7af0c88f-a00e-5cad-9fb6-2a297ecfd8b3"

Blueprint §34. Kill the control plane, the evidence store and the telemetry pipeline in turn; assert the data plane keeps serving from cached published configuration each time.

T05 - End-to-end loop in CI

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T05
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "45f70116-04f4-5150-9275-2c8023389dc9"

The full §50 vertical slice automated: two revisions, a 90/10 experiment, fitness comparison, promotion, complete audit trail.

T06 - Integration guide

id: FLUID-WP-0007-T06
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "29ce43f9-17e5-5798-a3f3-051af97224ce"

docs/integration-guide.md — how to put an existing API of any stack behind fluid-core without modifying it.

2026-10-03: status corrected by CUST-WP-0075 — done → finished: done is not a canonical workplan status; all six tasks are done.
