Frank 5976ad0550 refact(docs): compose-era sweeps retire with the last compose file
rank 7 tail. dankserver/compose.yaml (a parallel inventory whose mounts
had diverged from the quadlets) and its .env.example live in
dankserver/.AGENTTRASH/20261013-compose-retire/; the retired ik chat
template joined scripts/.AGENTTRASH/. No target has a compose file now:
- service-map drops the compose selection rule, compose file claim, and
  check_compose (the check list is schema/units/ownership/config/drift);
- deploy-remote's compose fallback is a loud failure, not a WARN-and-
  nothing for dankserver;
- compose_validity.bats goes to tests/.AGENTTRASH (it was sweeping only
  the trash file); env_consistency sheds its two compose sweeps;
- docs_completeness's compose sweep skips .AGENTTRASH so retired
  services cannot resurrect, and a revived compose stays covered;
- Testing Policy drops the Compose validity row.

# Testing Policy
This repository tests its configuration at defined seams. The tests run with `bats`; run them with `./tests/run.sh` before every push.
## Seams Under Test
| Seam | File | What it asserts |
|------|------|-----------------|
| Env consistency | `tests/env_consistency.bats` | every `${VAR}` is defined in `.env.example`; no real secrets; the live gitea password never appears |
| Caddyfile validity | `tests/caddyfile.bats` | per-host Caddyfile, `.local` convention, balanced braces, basic auth present |
| Docs completeness | `tests/docs_completeness.bats` | every service has a docs page; index links every page; no unresolved vault links |
| Script syntax | `tests/scripts_syntax.bats` | `bash -n` clean, executable bits, shellcheck when available |
| Deployment flow | `tests/deployment_flow.bats`, `tests/deployment_scoping.bats` | scoped dispatcher exists, targets are known, service plans isolate inference, Caddy ownership is guarded, and SSH reachability is checked (skips offline) |
| Quadlet units | `tests/*quadlet*.bats` | every unit is boot-persistent, self-healing, repo-provenanced, secret-free |
| E2E (browser) | `tests/e2e/` + `tests/e2e_scaffold.bats` | Playwright drives the live guard chain; the bats seam asserts structure and credential hygiene. See [[E2E Suite]] |
## Focused pre-commit testing
For normal commits, use the focused wrapper:
```bash
./scripts/test-changed.sh
```
It reads staged paths with `git diff --cached` and runs only the mapped Bats
files. The tracked `.githooks/pre-commit` hook invokes this wrapper. Enable the
repository hook path once per checkout:
```bash
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
```
Use `--list` to inspect the selection without running tests, or `--paths FILE
...` to preview a mapping. Shared test infrastructure and unmapped paths fail
closed rather than silently skipping coverage. Run the full suite with
`./tests/run.sh` when changing shared test helpers, the test runner, or when
focused coverage is not sufficient.
## Red-Green
Tests are written first. A failing test means the seam is not satisfied; the config change that makes it pass is the only acceptable fix. No `--no-verify`, no deleting tests without approval.
