Summary

Document the accepted portable-profile Podman exception without changing Podman's Unsupported status. Isolate the invalid-profile test's process temp files so macOS toolchain state cannot change the fixture assertion.

Related Issue

Follow-up to #9010. The product boundary remains the accepted scope in #9007.

Changes

  • Qualify standard Podman rejection with the explicit portable experimental profile's installer-preflight exception.
  • Keep all other readiness blockers enforced and keep Podman generally unsupported.
  • Update the platform matrix source and its generated platform-support page.
  • Give the invalid-profile child process a separate TMPDIR from the fixture whose unchanged host state the test verifies.

Type of Change

  • Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
  • Code change with doc updates
  • Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications)
  • Doc only (includes code sample changes)

Quality Gates

  • Tests added or updated for changed behavior
  • Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification:
  • Tests not applicable — justification:
  • Docs updated for user-facing behavior changes
  • Docs not applicable — justification:
  • Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging)
  • Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification:
  • Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue:

Documentation Writer Review

  • Documentation writer subagent reviewed the completed changes
  • Result: docs-updated
  • Evidence: Reviewed the complete four-file diff against base 71bfa4b, including docs/reference/commands.mdx and docs/reference/platform-support.mdx. The platform matrix and generated page keep Podman Unsupported while documenting only issue Installer admission honors an explicitly selected portable profile #9007's explicit portable installer-preflight exception. The shared command page produces the same boundary for OpenClaw, Hermes, and Deep Agents Code. The test cleanup removes both unique temporary directories without changing installer behavior or the unchanged-fixture assertion. The refreshed patch and all four file blobs match the previously reviewed content. Platform generation, agent variants, routes, the focused 3/3 integration test, the 11-case installer admission contract, test-title validation, the prior Fern build, and git diff --check pass.
  • Agent: Codex Desktop

DGX Station Hardware Evidence

  • Tested on DGX Station
  • Tested commit: Not applicable; scripts/prepare-dgx-station-host.sh is unchanged.
  • Station profile/scenario: Not applicable.
  • Result: Not applicable.
  • Supporting evidence: Not applicable.

Verification

  • PR description includes a Signed-off-by: line and every commit appears as Verified in GitHub
  • Normal pre-commit, commit-msg, and pre-push hooks passed, or npm run validate:pr passed after refreshing origin/main when hooks were skipped or unavailable
  • Targeted behavior tests pass for the current change set, or tests are marked not applicable above — python3 scripts/generate-platform-docs.py --check; agent-variant generation and inspection; three focused integration runs with 3/3 tests; test-title check; and git diff --check passed.
  • Applicable broad gate passed — npm test for broad runtime/test-harness changes; npm run check for repo-wide validation/coverage changes — command/result: Not applicable. Production behavior is unchanged, and the test-only change isolates one process temp directory.
  • Quality Gates section completed with required justifications or waivers
  • No secrets, API keys, or credentials committed
  • npm run docs builds without warnings (doc changes only) — build passed with 0 errors and 2 existing Fern warnings.
  • Doc pages follow the style guide (doc changes only)
  • New doc pages include SPDX header and frontmatter (new pages only) — no new documentation pages.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes document a narrowly scoped Podman exception for the portable experimental profile and update the invalid-profile installer test to use a separate temporary directory.

Changes

Portable profile admission

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document the scoped Podman exception
ci/platform-matrix.json, docs/reference/commands.mdx, docs/reference/platform-support.mdx
The documentation allows one portable experimental profile installer-preflight exception for Podman. Other readiness checks remain enforced, and Podman remains generally unsupported.
Separate installer temporary files
test/install-portable-profile.test.ts
The invalid-profile test uses a dedicated temporary directory through TMPDIR and preserves the fixture directory for state assertions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to bb9d8

The change clarifies the narrowly scoped portable Podman exception while preserving the general unsupported status and isolates test-only temporary files; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Findings: 0 blockers · 0 warnings · 0 suggestions

Model lanes

  • GPT-5.6 Terra (primary): Completed · medium confidence · 0 blockers · 0 warnings · 0 suggestions
  • Nemotron 3 Ultra (second opinion): Completed · high confidence · 0 blockers · 0 warnings · 0 suggestions
  • Model comparison: normalized findings match; normalized terminology decisions differ; normalized E2E selections differ; severity counts match.
3 terminology differences from the second opinion

Advisory only. These are normalized differences from the primary terminology receipt.

  • portable experimental profile at ci/platform-matrix.json:256: selected only by the second-opinion lane as established.
  • explicit portable experimental profile at ci/platform-matrix.json:256: selected only by the second-opinion lane as define.
  • installer-preflight admission exception at ci/platform-matrix.json:256: selected only by the second-opinion lane as define.
3 additional E2E selections from the second opinion

Advisory only. The primary lane did not select these E2E jobs or targets.

  • bootstrap-install-smoke: The completed second-opinion lane identified E2E coverage that the primary lane omitted.
  • onboard-repair: The completed second-opinion lane identified E2E coverage that the primary lane omitted.
  • onboard-resume: The completed second-opinion lane identified E2E coverage that the primary lane omitted.

Second-opinion terminology and E2E selections are advisory. Live E2E does not run automatically for pull requests.

3 semantic terminology decisions

Terminology decisions are advisory. They affect the assessment only when a separate finding identifies concrete semantic impact.

  • established — standard onboarding at ci/platform-matrix.json:256: Use standard onboarding for the default path when the portable profile contrast matters.
  • established — portable experimental profile at docs/reference/commands.mdx:787: Use portable experimental profile for this existing Podman-specific profile.
  • justified — installer-preflight admission exception at docs/reference/platform-support.mdx:169: Retain the term with the stated Podman-only and portable-profile scope.

E2E guidance

Advisory only. A maintainer can dispatch the default E2E suite for the commit under review.

Recommended E2E: None

Manual-only E2E: cloud-onboard
The manual PR workflow does not run these selectors for the commit under review. Run them from reviewed code on main.

Workflow run details

This automated review informs maintainers. Warnings and suggestions do not require a response. A maintainer decides whether to merge.
