- change ATVM status formatting to the approved Markdown-table template with SUMMARY:, HOSTS:, TIMING:, and NOTES: - document that normal status requests print locally only unless explicitly asked to send to Mattermost - document Mattermost defaults and posting rules, including only sending after full run completion - document the controller-side systemd watcher design for future automation - add the secrets migration/cleanup review doc - ignore .env.credentials.local in git and reflect the move toward using that local credentials file instead of hardcoded secrets

ATVM AGENTS Guide
This file defines how to operate and maintain the ATVM workspace in /home/aw/code/cds/atvm.
Workspace Layout
README.md- human entry point for the folder
scripts/- executable workflow assets
docs/setup/- setup/bootstrap procedure and run learnings
docs/automation/- ATVM Cypress automation procedure, examples, and run learnings
docs/workflow/- shared conventions for how the docs are maintained
inventory/- environment reference, credentials, IP allocations, and inventory indexes
archive/imported-notes/- preserved original long-form source material

Setup Track Defaults
- ATVM static IP target:
192.168.3.191/22 - Gateway:
192.168.0.1 - DNS:
8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 - Default setup credential:
root / cdsi2012 - Client log file:
atvm_setup_script.log - Treat
192.168.3.191as the default ATVM target host reference. - For SSH to
192.168.3.191, ignore host key mismatch by default with-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null. - For SSH to
192.168.3.191, use default credentialsroot / cdsi2012unless explicitly overridden.
Automation Track Defaults
- Controller host:
atvm-cypres-vm-1 - Controller IP:
192.168.3.190 - Controller credentials:
root / atvmcdsi2012 - Detailed test artifact root on controller:
/root/cdc-e2e-cyp-12.17.4/cypress/cmcReporter - Default Mattermost status destination config:
/home/aw/code/cds/.env.credentials.local - Default plugin:
--use_specified_plugin iscsi - Always include
--ignore_force_shutdownunless explicitly told not to. - Default config family:
gold
Required Operating Rules
- Never run setup without operator-provided
--expected-ipand--expected-hostname. - Keep static IP configuration as the final setup step.
- Before any automation run, always check whether automation is already running.
- Always show exact planned ATVM commands before execution.
- Never execute setup or automation commands that require approval until the operator explicitly approves them.
- For host-level test detail and failed-test investigation, use
/root/cdc-e2e-cyp-12.17.4/cypress/cmcReporter, especiallylogs/,xml/, andmochawesome/. - If the operator asks for ATVM run status without mentioning Mattermost, respond locally only and do not post externally.
- If the operator asks to send ATVM run status to Mattermost, use
MATTERMOST_ATVM_WEBHOOKandMATTERMOST_ATVM_CHANNELfrom/home/aw/code/cds/.env.credentials.localby default and send the final status only after the run has fully completed, whether the run passed or failed. - Treat
docs/automation/examples.mdas reference-only, not default operator intent. - Put reusable workflow rules in
guide.mdfiles. - Put dated lessons only in
run-learnings.mdfiles. - Keep durable environment reference in
inventory/. - Preserve imported long-form notes in
archive/imported-notes/; do not treat them as the primary runbook.
Maintenance Rules
- When changing workflow behavior, update the corresponding
guide.md. - When adding a reusable command pattern, update
docs/automation/examples.md. - When a run produces a new lesson, update the appropriate
run-learnings.md. - Keep filesystem paths in docs aligned with the actual repo layout.
- Do not remove detailed inventory or credential information from this workspace unless explicitly instructed.
