FACTUAL ACTIVITY RECORD · An activity record based on work that took place
Organizing GCP production deployment into two manual paths
Separating foundation and Broker work while completing plan through apply in the same run
Purpose
GCP foundation and Broker release operations needed to become simpler while preserving boundaries for targets, identities, canaries, and deletion protection.
Implementation
Foundation work is organized in foundation plan/apply workflow, while Broker work uses broker deployment workflow. Each manual path keeps plan through apply in the same run, and the Broker path executes build, candidate, canary, and traffic switching serially.
The foundation target list, per-resource deletion protection, identity separation, the gate that leaves traffic unchanged after canary failure, and documentation boundaries for bootstrap and Terraform state were aligned across manifests, Terraform, specifications, and audits.

What was confirmed
Verification results
Repository-wide verification, GCP verification, specification auditing, Terraform formatting, YAML parsing, and the diff check passed.
The adopted state contained no former six workflows and instead contained the two manual paths, individual protections, and consolidated bootstrap documentation.
Execution of the two workflows, the canary, and 100% traffic had not been verified by the cutoff.
Basis for completion
This scope ended when the two source paths and their safety gates agreed statically and no former split paths remained.
