Remediation commit:
7feff47 Clean up Narratio review findings
The production role implements the targeted architecture, and the complete integration suite passes. The findings were limited to residual documentation and test-quality issues; no production task, template, default, argument specification, metadata, or dependency required a change.
Finding 1: Remove the Retained Placeholder README Sentence
Severity: low
ansible-role-narratio/README.md ended with the original placeholder sentence,
“Ansible role to install the Narratio D&D transcript and session report
generation suite.” The rewritten README already provided the complete role
description, so this was accidental residue from the initial repository.
Resolution
The retained placeholder sentence was removed without changing the substantive role documentation.
Finding 2: Make the Composition Test Non-vacuous
Severity: low
ansible-role-narratio/tests/representative.yml claimed to exercise
caller-side composition, but both secondary fragments were empty. The verifier
consequently proved only that one original entry survived serialization.
Resolution
The Scriptorium artifact map now combines two nonempty caller-defined fragments, and the verifier checks one entry from each. Publish outputs use one direct value so the suite retains only one representative composition case. Native validation and the immediate clean repeat remain in place.
Finding 3: Use Ansible Privilege Escalation Directly in Verifiers
Severity: low
Both configuration verifiers escalated to root and then executed
/usr/bin/sudo -u narratio inside ansible.builtin.command, creating a
redundant second privilege transition.
Resolution
Both verifier tasks now use become_user: narratio and invoke Narratio
directly. The integration driver enables pipelining and uses /tmp for
Ansible's transient module area, avoiding the local controller's otherwise
unmet temporary-file ACL requirement without adding a nested sudo command.
Final Validation
bash -n tests/integration, the complete tests/integration suite, and
git diff --check passed after remediation. Syntax checking and
production-profile lint passed within the integration entry point. Baseline,
missing-binary recovery, and representative-configuration scenarios passed
their native Narratio checks as the application account, every required
immediate repeat reported changed=0 and failed=0, and cleanup restored the
usable baseline deployment. No unresolved Feature 0005 findings remain.
