FACTUAL ACTIVITY RECORD · An activity record based on work that took place
Keeping technical documentation and Git helpers inside their repository
Translating reader-facing guidance while guarding authentication checks and non-force pushes at a repository-local entry point
Purpose
The corporate site's reader-facing documentation was primarily written in English, while its commenting guide remained separate at the repository root. Development, deployment, initial scope, and commenting guidance needed a navigable Japanese structure without changing commands, paths, framework names, or package identifiers.
GitHub remote operations also had a boundary problem: invoking a parent-workspace helper through a relative path from a child repository could make the helper location disagree with the Git target. The goal was to use only the target repository's own helpers and validate authentication and non-force-push conditions within that repository boundary.
Implementation
The reader-facing prose in project guide, development guide, deployment guide, and site scope guide was translated into Japanese. Commands, paths, and identifiers such as Astro, TypeScript, pnpm, and Cloudflare Pages were preserved, while development commands, static delivery, secret-handling boundaries, initially excluded capabilities, and publication prerequisites remained in their purpose-specific documents.
The commenting guide at the repository root moved to explanatory-comment guide, and references in project guide and development guide were updated. Its prose was adjusted as Japanese guidance without changing the technical distinctions among TSDoc in Astro frontmatter, inline TypeScript comments, and HTML comments.
authenticated Git helper was added as a repository-local authentication preflight. It accepted no arguments and compared the physical repository root derived from the script location with the top level of the Git repository being operated on. A mismatch stopped with exit code 2 before any remote access. A matching repository proceeded through GitHub CLI authentication, Git credential-helper setup, and a live read of the remote default branch, while suppressing authentication and remote output.
safe branch-push helper was added as the entry point for a non-force push of the current work branch. It required one argument and checked Git branch-name syntax, protected names covering main, master, production, and release patterns, and equality with the current branch. It then called the authentication preflight from the same repository, rejected the remote default branch, and only then ran git push --set-upstream.
Verification checked the syntax of both shell scripts, authentication through the local helper, rejection of an invocation that used a helper from another repository, rejection of a protected branch, local Markdown links, and whitespace errors in the diff. pnpm check completed without diagnostics. pnpm build did not complete because the environment could not retrieve a registry signature, so the production build was rerun directly with the repository's Astro binary.
The primary diff was checked line by line to confirm that the behavior described above matched the change at the cutoff.

What was confirmed
Verification results
The reader-facing documentation became readable in Japanese, the commenting guide moved to explanatory-comment guide, and local links from the project guide and development guide used its new path.
The authentication-preflight and push helpers stopped with exit code 2 when the script repository differed from the Git top level. The push helper also rejected protected and remote-default branches, limiting non-force push to the current branch after the target repository's own authentication preflight succeeded.
Shell syntax, authentication preflight, rejection of a helper from another repository and a protected branch, local Markdown links, and git diff --check all passed. pnpm check reported zero errors, warnings, and hints; the direct Astro production build generated five pages; and both CI and the Cloudflare Pages check succeeded.
Verification did not perform an actual push. It evaluated the non-force-push path through code inspection, authentication preflight, and rejection cases. The pnpm build wrapper itself was also not confirmed as successful; the verified scope used the direct Astro build and CI instead.
Basis for completion
This Activity was complete when the translated documents and updated references, together with two local helpers that enforced the repository boundary, were in place; shell, link, diagnostic, direct production-build, and CI checks had succeeded; and the unexecuted push path and unsuccessful build-wrapper path were kept outside the confirmed scope.
