ced4568/RootNode-academy-website (separate GitHub repo, Chase-authorized access) now implements
docs/WEBSITE_REGISTRATION_AND_CHECKOUT.md's full contract on its own side: public offering
lookup, registration (adult + guardian/minor), agreement acceptance, checkout creation, and a
status-polling success page. Its own stale pricing was also corrected to match docs/
ROOTNODE_PRICING_AND_OFFERS_V1.md. It has nothing to talk to yet -- no real Platform API exists
(Gate 4's hardware blocker, unchanged) -- so every RootNode-facing route there returns a clean
503 until ROOTNODE_API_URL/ROOTNODE_INTEGRATION_KEY point at a real deployment.
Updates PHASE10_LAUNCH_READINESS.md Gate 10 and its matrix row, and WINTER_BREAK_LAUNCH_CHECKLIST.md
and WINTER_BREAK_CAMP_OPERATIONS.md's own website-status notes, all of which previously said
'nobody has built the website-side form yet.'
Phase 9.5: reconfirmed no canonical commit exists (broader content search across full history —
still zero hits outside this session's own commits); Chase confirmed the real document lives on
PC #2, unpushed. Not duplicated here per Chase's explicit instruction — he owns bringing it to
canonical Gitea.
Infisical: Phase 10's 'project does not exist' finding was incomplete, not wrong about what it
checked — a proper org-scoped API enumeration (8 projects) still shows no RootNode Academy
project visible to the claude-code-migration machine identity, even though Chase confirms it
exists. Root cause narrowed to a missing per-project access grant (Infisical scopes identity
visibility per-project, separate from org membership) rather than the project not existing.
Corrected docs/SECRETS_AND_INFISICAL.md and docs/PHASE10_CANONICAL_STATE_AUDIT.md accordingly,
with the exact one-step fix (grant the identity access via Project Settings -> Access) and the
identity id needed to do it. No duplicate project was created.
Website pricing: a read-only fetch of rootnodeacademy.com found stale founding-price RANGES that
don't match the exact fixed V1 prices Chase gave directly this phase; Chase confirmed the fixed
prices in this repo's docs are correct and current. Noted as a real discrepancy for his own
awareness, not something this repo's scope covers fixing.
Updated the Phase 10 launch matrix with a Category column (TECHNICAL READY / OWNER DECISION
REQUIRED / EXTERNAL BLOCKER / HARDWARE BLOCKER) distinguishing who needs to act on each
remaining gate. No application code changed — audit/documentation reconciliation only.
Gate 1 — canonical state audit: this workstation's HEAD/origin/main and every claimed milestone
SHA (Phase 2A through 9.1) verified consistent; no stranded branches/tags on Gitea; full-history
secret scan clean (no rotation required); Phase 9.5 confirmed absent from canonical history
(pricing was given directly by Chase and used without it); second-PC reconciliation commands
provided since this session cannot see that machine.
Gate 3 — secrets: real inventory derived from process.env greps across every service (not
guessed); Infisical auth fixed (wrong domain was the actual root cause of Phase 9.1's failures —
the identity belongs to infisical.cedshomelab.com, not app.infisical.com) but no RootNode
Academy project exists there yet, contradicting this phase's own authorization — flagged for
Chase to create.
Gates 4-9/15-16 — production: verified, not assumed, that no dedicated server/Proxmox VM has
been provisioned (empty terraform.tfvars, no state file, placeholder group_vars/production.yml)
— IaC validated (tofu validate, ansible --syntax-check both clean) and left unexecuted per this
phase's own 'do not fake production deployment' instruction. rootnodeacademy.com confirmed live
(Cloudflare, real HTTPS) — the separate, not-RootNode-owned website; no Platform API subdomain
exists yet.
Gate 18 — security audit: full review against every regression suite rerun this phase; no
launch-critical defect found.
Gates 19/20 — full regression (131 checks: e2e-phase5b/5c/6f/7/8/9, content validation,
migrations, frontend build) and the Winter Break commerce rehearsal, both rerun clean against
current main.
Gates 10-14/21 — website integration, Winter Break pricing (99/49, real, Stripe-validated),
agreements/legal, tax, and refund policy all reviewed; legal text/tax/refund policy/dates/venue/
capacity correctly left as open owner decisions, not invented.
No application code changed this phase — audit/launch-prep only.
