RFC#2843 #37 (mc#2996) Phase 2a — harden the delivery gate so it can fail-closed

Goal: make template-delivery-e2e merge-blocking (fail-closed) so a delivery regression (the #2919 model-drop / #32 skill-drop class) can't merge.

Why two steps. The repo's own lint-pre-flip-continue-on-error blocks removing continue-on-error until the job has banked green runs on main (it scans recent main run logs for masked failures — PR#656/mc#1982 lesson). Main's last delivery run (9c2161d) was red — but the red was a false negative: the final assertion did a single no-retry curl of the just-online tenant's /configs endpoint and hit curl: (28) ... 0 bytesconfig.yaml size=0 → false "default stub". Not a real delivery break.

This PR (2a): harden the asset-channel assertions (C config.yaml, D prompts) to poll within E2E_ASSET_SETTLE_SECS (180s) instead of one no-retry read. A genuine stub still fails after the budget (real signal intact); only the transient/early read stops false-failing. The plugin assertion (E) already polled — this brings C/D to parity. continue-on-error stays here on purpose.

Next (2b, immediately after this is green on main): remove continue-on-error + add the emitted context to branch-protection required_status_checks → fail-closed.

SOP

  • Root cause of the red: single-shot 30s curl vs a just-online tenant's exec-backed /configs endpoint → curl 28 → false stub. Named, not "flaky".
  • Five-axis: correctness (poll preserves the real stub-detection; only transient reads retried), no-backwards-compat break, security (none), tests (bash -n + the e2e itself runs on this PR via the path filter), observability (failure message now reports the post-budget value).

The delivery e2e is the regression gate for RFC#2843 (catches the #2919
model/identity drop + #32 skill drop). It's still advisory because it flaked:
on 9c2161d the final assertion failed with `curl: (28) Operation timed out
... 0 bytes` → config.yaml read as size 0 → false 'default stub' failure. A
freshly-online tenant's /configs inspection endpoint (execs into the
container) can be transiently slow / time out the first read — not a real
delivery failure.

Harden the asset-channel assertions (C config.yaml, D prompts) to POLL within
E2E_ASSET_SETTLE_SECS (default 180s) instead of a single no-retry read. A
genuine stub still fails AFTER the budget (the gate's real signal is intact);
only the transient/early read no longer false-negatives. The plugin assertion
(E) already polled — this brings C/D up to the same robustness.

This is Phase 2a: continue-on-error STAYS so the flip to merge-blocking is
gated by lint-pre-flip-continue-on-error on the green main runs this hardening
produces. Phase 2b (remove continue-on-error + add to branch protection
required_status_checks) follows once green on main.

QA: asset assertions now poll within settle budget (kills the curl-28 false stub); real stub still fails post-budget; plugin assertion parity. COE retained per pre-flip lint. APPROVE.
