**Content:**
- Detailed objective and success criteria
- Per-scenario breakdown with expected outcomes
- Known issues and risk mitigation strategies
- Step-by-step execution instructions
- CI/CD integration example
- Post-execution checklist

**Status:** ✅ Complete and comprehensive

### 4. Documentation Updates ✅

**Files Updated:**
- `uat/consumer-health/README.md` - Added automated testing section
- `crates/stemedb-ontology/Cargo.toml` - Added `blocking` feature to reqwest

**Status:** ✅ Documentation in sync with code

## Architecture Decisions

### 1. Integration Tests vs Unit Tests

**Decision:** Use integration tests in `tests/` directory rather than unit tests.

**Rationale:**
- UAT scenarios test end-to-end flows (API → Handler → Query Engine → Lens → Response)
- Requires running API server with real database
- Mimics actual user workflows
- Easier to map to UAT markdown files

### 2. Blocking HTTP Client

**Decision:** Use `reqwest::blocking::Client` instead of async client.

**Rationale:**
- Simpler test code (no async/await complexity)
- Sequential execution matches UAT workflow
- Easier to debug and reason about
- Adequate performance for test scenarios

### 3. Dummy Signatures

**Decision:** Use placeholder signatures (`0000...`) instead of generating real Ed25519 signatures.

**Rationale:**
- Faster test execution
- Simpler test setup
- API may have test mode that skips signature verification
- Can upgrade to real signatures if needed

**Risk Mitigation:** Document this as a known issue in execution plan.

### 4. Sleep-Based Ingestion Wait

**Decision:** Use `std::thread::sleep()` to wait for assertion ingestion instead of polling.

**Rationale:**
- Simple and reliable
- Sufficient for test scenarios (2-3 seconds)
- No additional complexity from polling logic

**Future Enhancement:** Add polling with timeout for more robust tests.

## API Contract Validation

### Endpoints Verified

All endpoints referenced in UAT scenarios have been verified to exist:

| Endpoint | Method | Purpose | Status |
|----------|--------|---------|--------|
| `/v1/assert` | POST | Create assertions | ✅ Exists |
| `/v1/skeptic` | GET | Skeptic Lens query | ✅ Exists |
| `/v1/layered` | GET | Layered Consensus query | ✅ Exists |
| `/v1/query` | GET | Generic query | ✅ Exists |
| `/v1/health` | GET | Health check | ✅ Exists |
| `/api-docs/openapi.json` | GET | OpenAPI spec | ✅ Exists |

### DTOs Validated

All data structures match API contracts:

| DTO | Matches API | Source |
|-----|-------------|--------|
| `CreateAssertionRequest` | ✅ | `stemedb-api/src/dto/create.rs` |
| `CreateResponse` | ✅ | `stemedb-api/src/dto/responses.rs` |
| `SkepticResponse` | ✅ | `stemedb-api/src/dto/skeptic.rs` |
| `LayeredQueryResponse` | ✅ | `stemedb-api/src/dto/responses.rs` |
| `ObjectValue` | ✅ | `stemedb-api/src/dto/object_value.rs` |

## Execution Readiness

### Build Status

```
✅ stemedb-ontology builds successfully
✅ Library tests pass (55 passed, 0 failed)
✅ UAT integration tests compile
✅ API validation script is executable
```

### Test Execution Commands

```bash
# Individual scenarios
STEMEDB_API_URL=http://localhost:18180 cargo test --test consumer_health_uat uat_glp1_muscle_loss_contradiction -- --ignored --nocapture

STEMEDB_API_URL=http://localhost:18180 cargo test --test consumer_health_uat uat_gastroparesis_multi_source -- --ignored --nocapture

STEMEDB_API_URL=http://localhost:18180 cargo test --test consumer_health_uat uat_layered_consensus -- --ignored --nocapture

# All scenarios

```

## Known Issues & Limitations

### 1. Time Travel Query Not Implemented ⏳

**Issue:** The `as_of` parameter is not yet implemented in query handlers.

**Impact:** Scenario 4 will be skipped in Week 4 execution.

**Plan:** Implement in Phase 6 as planned in roadmap.

**Workaround:** Test marked as `#[ignore]` and returns "SKIP" status.

### 2. Signature Verification May Block Tests ⚠️

**Issue:** API may require valid Ed25519 signatures, but tests use dummy signatures.

**Impact:** Assertion creation may fail with 400 Bad Request.

**Mitigation:**
- Check if API has test mode that disables signature verification
- OR generate real signatures using `stemedb-core::signing` utilities
- OR add `#[cfg(test)]` flag to API to skip verification

### 3. Race Conditions in Ingestion ⚠️

**Issue:** Assertions may not be ingested by the time query executes.

**Current Approach:** Fixed `sleep(2-3 seconds)` after ingestion.

**Risk:** Flaky tests if ingestion is slower than expected.

**Mitigation:** Increase sleep duration or implement polling with timeout.

### 4. Database State Isolation ⚠️

**Issue:** Tests write to shared database, may interfere with each other.

**Current Approach:** Use unique subject/predicate combinations per test.

**Risk:** Re-running tests may pollute results with old data.

**Mitigation:**
- Clear database between test runs
- Use timestamp-based unique identifiers
- Implement temporary databases per test
