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 This was Tier-1-isolation groundwork that got superseded same-day by the full-ephemeral-per-student architecture (see docs/LAB_ARCHITECTURE.md) — the field is kept as descriptive metadata only, per the note now in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.

"explanation": "The full Kubernetes DNS format is `<service>.<namespace>.svc.<cluster-domain>`. The default cluster domain is `cluster.local`, so the FQDN is `db-service.backend.svc.cluster.local`. When pods are in the **same namespace**, just `db-service` works. Across namespaces, you need at minimum `db-service.backend` (short form). Option C is the fully-qualified name that always works regardless of the caller's namespace.",
