Description
Remove STATE.md after every remaining deployment unknown has either been resolved into current product documentation, moved to the owning deployment repository, or recorded as an explicit Backlog task. Do not delete it while it is the only source for an unresolved contract.
Acceptance Criteria
- #1 No current operational instruction exists only in STATE.md
- #2 Deployment-specific state is owned by the deployment repository
- #3 Open product work is represented by Backlog tasks
- #4 STATE.md is removed and all documentation links remain valid
Definition of Done
- #1 python3 -m pytest tests -q
- #2 tofu fmt -check -recursive terraform; tofu init -backend=false and tofu validate pass for terraform/ and terraform/examples/standalone/
- #3 customer-identifier and shipped-text gates from .github/workflows/ci.yml return clean
Implementation Plan
Audit STATE.md against current product docs, deployment ownership and Backlog coverage; migrate generic current contracts through root-owned documentation, then either remove STATE.md or park the exact remaining unique instruction.
Final Summary
Audited every remaining STATE.md instruction against current product documentation, deployment ownership and Backlog coverage, then removed STATE.md. Repository links and the complete final gate at b6cf849614054894e2bea49d0154d958fc016d7b passed.
