Interview Readiness Fixes - 2026-10-07

Context

A review of the repo and the live Pages demo, done as a reader would see them in an interview, found a list of bugs and rough edges: the resolver dropped junit_xml and tier, the dashboard showed "Degraded" because of a MinIO health check, leftover "UQO" names, Compare was hard to read, the nav broke on phones, and the nightly job was always red. All of it was fixed as one batch of parallel pull requests, each kept independent.

Decision

Area	Change	Pull request
Engine	Keep junit_xml and tier when resolving cycle stages	#73
Engine	Pyramid buckets a run by the tiers it ran with	#71
Engine	Stage workers are honest per framework	#77
Pytest	Keep the target repo's own rootdir	#69
Storage	Drop MinIO and pre-v1.1 run-history compatibility	#75
Storage	Each run gets its own copy of its artifacts	#68
API	Optional token, strict CORS and origin check	#76
API	Bounded execution registry; async SSE tail	#81
CLI	uqo alias and legacy frontend redirects removed	#72
Naming	UQO → Testosterone rename finished in code and UI (env vars TESTO_*)	#78
Frontend	Same-cycle compare; honest health for crashed stages	#82
Frontend	Runs named by cycle and time; Compare as tables	#85
Frontend	Top nav collapses into a menu on phones	#83
Demo	Self-hosting CI publishes the UI to GitHub and GitLab Pages	#67
Demo	The read-only Pages demo explains itself	#84
CI	Coverage enforced on the fast suite; nightly fixed	#79
Repo	Dead code and failure injection deleted; root tidied	#80
Docs	Vault readable on GitHub; work log archived	#74
Docs	README top section with demo link and architecture diagram	#70

Second wave

Area	Change	Pull request
CI	mypy gates testo_api as well as testo_core	#87
Code	Root modules moved into subpackages: db* → repository/, metrics, integrations and report generator → reporting/, triggers → config/; only paths.py stays at the root	#88
Docs	Current UI screenshots in the README (docs/assets/screenshots/)	#89
Code	Silent except blocks in I/O and reporting paths now log or re-raise	#90
Release	Version 1.1.0: pyproject.toml bump and CHANGELOG.md cut	#91

The vault and wiki work done the same day is its own decision: Docs Vault and Wiki Sync - 2026-10-07.

Defaults chosen: the next version is v1.1.0, with a moving v1 tag for the GitHub Action; no backward-compatibility shims, since there are no external users.

Consequences

• Breaking for anyone on 1.0: the uqo command, UQO_* env vars, MinIO storage and pre-v1.1 history are gone. See CHANGELOG.md.
• v1.1.0 is cut but not tagged or published, and stale branches remain; both need someone with push rights to tags and branch deletion (Publishing to PyPI § Current state).
