Meridian Maintainer Regression Workflow

Summary

This workflow is for maintainers validating Meridian itself, especially changes to runtime orchestration, patching, reporting, and fixture evaluation.

Workflow

  1. run go test ./...
  2. exercise the normal local CLI flows where relevant
  3. run the repo-owned k3s fixture on the project VM
  4. inspect summary.md, summary.json, and supporting scenario artifacts
  5. confirm that negative scenarios pass for the right reasons

Why this workflow exists

The k3s fixture is a regression target for Meridian, not a generic user tutorial. It exists to provide one controlled cluster-level acceptance surface the project owns.

What to verify

Maintainers should verify:

  • scenario exit semantics
  • artifact completeness
  • fidelity of summary reporting
  • run-scoped evidence behavior for gateway counters, Prometheus, and logs
