Month: 2025-04 Overview: This period focused on strengthening SAP discovery accuracy, enabling automated post-apply validation, modernizing the messaging/remote-operations stack, and stabilizing CI for reliable delivery pipelines. Work spans two main repos (trento-project/web and trento-project/agent) with measurable business value: improved system visibility, faster remediation cycles, and more deterministic CI behavior. Key features delivered (with traceability): - SAP System Discovery and State Tracking Enhancements (web): added SapInstance.mounted state, updated cluster policy, and backward-compatible parsing of currentInstance from discovery payloads.
