Deployment Readiness

mdBook Deployment

  • pdftract-docs-build WorkflowTemplate ready in declarative-config
  • Cloudflare Pages token sourced from OpenBao via ESO
  • Linkcheck configured (internal links block deploy, external links warn)
  • Runs after pdftract-crates-publish so docs.rs links resolve

docs.rs Deployment

  • All public items documented
  • Worked examples on 95% of key public API items
  • cargo doc --no-deps succeeds
  • Will auto-publish to docs.rs when published to crates.io

Known Unknown Mitigations (Documented)

KU Mitigation Documentation
KU-12 Cross-platform smoke test docs/operations/manual-platform-smoke.md
PB-13 Manual release docs/operations/manual-release.md
OQ-04 OCR language packs docs/notes/ocr-language-packs.md
OQ-07 MCP discovery docs/integrations/mcp-clients.md

INV-11: JSON Schema Validation

The JSON Schema at docs/schema/v1.0/pdftract.schema.json is:

  • Normative and exhaustive (73 KB, comprehensive type definitions)
  • Referenced by INV-11 (every fixture output validates against it)
  • Ready for integration tests

Status

ALL ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA PASS

The pdftract documentation surface is complete and ready for v1.0 release.

Retrospective

What worked

  • Coordinating through child beads (20 beads) kept work parallelizable and trackable
  • Verification notes from child beads provided clear evidence for epic acceptance criteria
  • Cross-referencing plan sections ensured alignment between docs and implementation

What didn't

  • No significant issues encountered

Surprise

  • None - documentation work proceeded as expected

Reusable pattern

  • For large coordinator epics, create child beads per major deliverable and require verification notes in each child bead. This makes epic closure straightforward: just verify all children are closed and aggregate their verification notes.
