Harden the staging-external + chat E2Es fail-closed toward HARD merge-gates. continue-on-error left in place — promotion is the CTO's call.

e2e-staging-external (test_staging_external_runtime.sh):

• No REQUIRE_LIVE guard → E2E_REQUIRE_LIVE=1; harness tracks the 4 contracted awaiting_agent transitions, EXIT trap exits 5 on <4 proven (a real pre-existing failure is NOT masked into 5 — unit-verified).
• Sweep-cadence flake — fixed sleep 180s then a lone GET → bounded readiness-poll to STALE_POLL_DEADLINE_SECS (240=180+sweep headroom), hard-fail with elapsed.
• Cold-boot register flake — single-shot /registry/register → register_with_retry retrying ONLY the transient transport class (5xx + body match), fail-closed on 4xx + exhausted budget; bearer-token redaction in transient logs.

e2e-chat:

• Zero-tests false-green — Playwright passWithNoTests defaulted true (renamed specs → exit 0) → passWithNoTests:false + forbidOnly:!!CI + a run-step assert that ≥1 test executed.
• Swallowed assertion — chat-desktop.spec.ts activity-log test ended in .catch(()=>{}) → presence-gated (DOM-absent ⇒ recorded skip; present ⇒ real toBeVisible).

Pure-logic unit tests green (REQUIRE_LIVE matrix 6 + transient classification 9). bash -n/shellcheck/YAML clean. PROMOTION-READINESS notes: still need an infra-vs-code signal split (a CP outage currently looks like a real failure) + the echo round-trip should assert the runtime actually received the A2A request.

test(e2e): harden staging-external + chat E2Es fail-closed (promotion-readiness) ... 10b7f8a99a

Both lanes stay continue-on-error (CTO's irreversible call) but are now
fail-closed so they can become required gates. No "flaky" dispositions —
each flake mechanism is named + fixed deterministically (internal#828).

e2e-staging-external + test_staging_external_runtime.sh:
- REQUIRE_LIVE guard (E2E_REQUIRE_LIVE=1 in CI): exit 5 if the harness
  reaches a clean exit without proving all four awaiting_agent
  transitions — a silent skip / early-return / dropped assertion can no
  longer show green. Mirrors CP serving-e2e SERVING_E2E_REQUIRE_LIVE.
- Sweep-cadence flake (step 6): replaced fixed `sleep $STALE_WAIT_SECS`
  + one-shot assert with a bounded readiness-poll up to
  STALE_POLL_DEADLINE_SECS. A slow-but-working sweep tick was being
  misread as a stuck 'online'.
- Cold-boot transient flake (register / re-register): single-shot POST
  /registry/register failed on Caddy 502/503/504 during cold TLS/agent
  boot. Added register_with_retry mirroring the full-saas bounded
  retry-on-transient loop — retries ONLY the transport class (5xx + body
  match), fails closed on 4xx (real contract bug) and on exhausted budget.
- Token redaction (sanitize_http_body) on all transient-error logs.

e2e-chat + Playwright:
- passWithNoTests:false + forbidOnly(CI) in playwright.config.ts: a
  renamed/moved spec or stray test.only can no longer green the lane with
  zero executed tests.
- REQUIRE-LIVE guard in the run step: chat==true must execute >=1 test.
- chat-desktop "activity log" test no longer swallows its assertion with
  `.catch(() => {})` (always-passed before) — now presence-gated skip or
  a real visibility assertion.

PROMOTION-READINESS comments added to each workflow listing what's now
fail-closed and what still blocks promotion-to-required (infra-vs-code
signal split for external; server-received A2A assertion for chat).

Verified without live infra: bash -n + shellcheck clean on the harness
(only a pre-existing SC2015 info on untouched teardown line); both
workflow YAMLs parse; embedded run-step bash -n clean; pure-logic unit
tests for REQUIRE_LIVE fail-closed, sweep-deadline guard, and transient
retry classification all pass. Live staging suite NOT run (no infra).

REQUEST_CHANGES: direct Gitea verification does not support approval at head 10b7f8a99a.

Source-of-truth combined CI is failure across 30 contexts at the current head. I cannot post a counting approval while the PR is red/pending, even with an existing CEO Assistant approval. Please re-request CR2 review after CI is success on the current head; I will re-run the normal 5-axis review then.

APPROVED after re-review using branch-protection required contexts rather than combined status.

Required-context check: present required context(s) are green at head 10b7f8a99af9; absent required contexts are path-filter absent for this PR. 5-axis review found no blocking issue.

Summary: Staging external/chat hardening prevents zero-test greens and tightens live validation paths.

Correctness/robustness: change adds targeted regression coverage or fail-closed behavior for the reported bug class. Security: no new secret exposure or auth broadening found. Performance: no concerning runtime cost. Readability: comments/tests are explicit about the incident class and gate semantics.
