New Platform Shell entry point (frontend/src/platform/) alongside the
existing, completely unmodified Lab UI (App.jsx and everything under
frontend/src/components/). main.jsx now splits on the current URL path —
/lab/<token>/ renders the existing <App/> exactly as before; anything else
renders the new <PlatformShell/>. Both live in the same built bundle (it's
served both by the persistent identity instance and by every ephemeral Lab
container), split purely at runtime.
- EntryScreen.jsx — cohort dropdown -> name dropdown (existing
GET /api/roster/cohorts, GET /api/roster?cohort=) -> POST /api/login. No
password. Visibly labeled pilot identity, not production auth, per the
governing requirement that this be stated explicitly, not just true in the
architecture docs.
- api.js — student_id lives in localStorage only, sent as X-Student-Id on
every authenticated request. Every authenticated call throws if no student
is stored rather than silently going out anonymously — this is what
"prevent accidental anonymous progress writes" means in practice, not just
a comment.
- PlatformShell.jsx — entry screen if no stored session, dashboard otherwise.

Pre-Phase-1 platform work, approved and tested earlier but not yet committed:
- Terminal banner: "RootNode Academy Lab — node: k8s-lab", upstream KubeKosh
attribution left untouched in footer/README/LICENSE.
- RootNode curriculum mode: scenarios/rootnode-path.json (Foundation -> Workloads
-> Networking -> Configuration -> Troubleshooting -> Real Ops -> Capstone),
built from existing scenario content grouped by category, no new scenarios
invented. New GET /api/curriculum/path endpoint.
- Student roster + per-student progress: instructor-roster, pick-your-name login
(no password), students/environments-adjacent progress table migrated to a
(student_id, scenario_id) composite key so practice progress and exam sessions
are isolated per student instead of one global bucket. New /api/roster,
/api/login endpoints.
- scenarios/data/*.json: added isolation_type metadata (shared_namespace vs
ephemeral_cluster) from an audit of which scenarios execute cluster-scoped or
node-level commands. This was Tier-1-isolation groundwork that got superseded
same-day by the full-ephemeral-per-student architecture (see
docs/LAB_ARCHITECTURE.md) — the field is kept as descriptive metadata only,
per the note now in scenarios/SCHEMA.md. Not wasted: it's an accurate audit of
which scenarios touch cluster-scoped resources, useful independent of isolation
model.
- .gitignore added (node_modules/, frontend/dist/, *.db, /data/, .env) — none
existed before; without it, npm installs during testing would have landed in
a commit.
Known limitation still open: no frontend UI for any of this yet (login screen,
roster-add form, curriculum view) — API-only. No auth on the roster-add endpoint.
