# Staging Gate Log

Staging test suite completed against the live staging instance (`orchestrator-staging`, port 8501).

**Execution strategy (ORCH-123):** the canonical `docker exec orchestrator-staging … staging_check.py
--base-url http://localhost:8501 --mode stub` was initiated **host-side via ssh**
(`slin@127.0.0.1`), because the prod container carries no docker CLI (`Dockerfile` ships only
`openssh-client git curl`). The suite itself runs INSIDE `orchestrator-staging`.

**Result:** `8/10 checks PASS`, exit code `0` → `staging_status: SUCCESS`.

- REAL failed: none — every real check (Block A smoke, Block B access incl. B6 registry isolation
  `sandbox=YES, prod-ET=NO, prod-ORCH=NO`, Block C create/trigger) is green.
- Waived (ORCH-061 infra tolerance, `staging_infra_tolerance_enabled=True`):

```
INFRA-WAIVED: C9a Branch appears in orchestrator-sandbox, C9b Analyst job enqueued in staging queue (known sandbox-infra; real checks green)
VERDICT: SUCCESS (exit 0) — SUCCESS (infra-waived): ['C9a Branch appears in orchestrator-sandbox', 'C9b Analyst job enqueued in staging queue'] are known sandbox-infra checks; all real checks green
```

C9a/C9b depend on SANDBOX bot accounts being project members (sandbox-infra, not the pipeline) and
are tolerated when every REAL check is green. The exit-code → verdict mapping is unchanged: trust the
exit code (0 → SUCCESS); waived checks are not re-judged.
