QA checklist

Run the checks before a public publish.

Build gates

• npm run typecheck passes.
• npm test passes.
• npm run lint passes.
• npm run build passes.
• The no-useEffect check passes.
• The Whisper worker bundle check passes.
• npm run docs:build passes with --strict.
• git diff --check passes.

Browser gates

Check the app at 320, 360, 768, 1024, and 1280 CSS pixels.

• No horizontal overflow exists.
• The onboarding form is readable.
• A quest can show details without starting an attempt.
• The mission panel changes when a different quest is selected.
• The response form appears only after Begin teach-back.
• Busy buttons show a clear state and block duplicates.
• Keyboard focus is visible.
• Reduced motion does not remove meaning.
• The console has no new errors.
• Live and replay labels remain honest.

Documentation gates

• docs/index.html loads from CloudFront.
• Search returns a result.
• Internal links do not leave the docs prefix.
• The app link opens Orion.
• Provider names and modes match the deployed configuration.
• No secret, token, raw audio, or private learner data appears.

Evidence rule

A replay result proves a user journey. It does not prove a live AWS, CockroachDB, MCP, or OpenRouter integration. Record the mode and commit for each screenshot.
