The _build_artifacts_dict function in plan_apply_service.py already includes
validation_summary and apply_summary in the artifacts output. These two test
scenarios were marked as @tdd_expected_fail but now pass with the current
implementation. Removing the tags to reflect the actual passing status.
Also added the missing unit-tests.yaml validation config file that the tests
require.
ISSUES CLOSED: #9084
## Summary
Replaces all 234 bare `@skip` occurrences across 82 Behave feature files with the correct TDD issue-capture tagging system described in CONTRIBUTING.md § Bug Fix Workflow.
Previously, the noxfile ran Behave with `--tags=not @skip`, silently excluding all `@skip`-tagged scenarios from every CI run. These tests never ran, never inverted results via the `@tdd_expected_fail` mechanism, and never contributed to coverage — defeating the purpose of TDD issue-capture testing. Every `@skip` occurrence had a commented-out hint line immediately above it showing the intended proper tags (e.g., `# @tdd_issue @tdd_issue_4272 @tdd_expected_fail @skip`), confirming they were all intended for conversion.
## Changes
### Mechanical conversion (234 replacements across 82 files)
- Extracted the proper TDD tags from the comment hint above each `@skip` line, removed `@skip` from the tag set, and replaced the `@skip` line with those tags.
- Removed the now-redundant comment hint lines alongside each replacement.
### Bug-fixed scenarios — `@tdd_expected_fail` removed (84 scenarios)
- After conversion, ran `nox -s unit_tests` to identify which newly-enabled `@tdd_expected_fail` scenarios now **pass** (their referenced bugs have already been fixed). Removed `@tdd_expected_fail` from those 84 scenarios and their corresponding feature-level tags, leaving only the permanent `@tdd_issue @tdd_issue_<N>` regression-guard tags.
- Affected features include: `tdd_tool_runner_env_precedence`, `tdd_automation_profile_session_leak`, `tls_certificate_check`, `project_create_persist`, `resource_type_bootstrap_*`, and 18 others.
### Noxfile cleanup
- Removed all four `--tags=not @skip` arguments from `noxfile.py` (unit_tests and coverage sessions). With zero `@skip` tags remaining in the codebase, this filter was dead code and its presence would mislead future maintainers into thinking `@skip` is still a supported escape mechanism.
### Regression guard files
- Split the regression guards into two focused files:
- `tdd_regression_guards_exec_env.feature` for bug #4281 (exec-env precedence)
- `tdd_regression_guards_session_list.feature` for bug #4271 (session list summary)
- Each file carries only its own `@tdd_issue` tags at the feature level, avoiding cross-contamination via Behave tag inheritance. The `Background` step (`session-list-summary mock`) only appears in the session-list file where it is actually needed.
### Duplicate tag cleanup
- Removed duplicate `@tdd_issue @tdd_issue_4287` tag lines in `tdd_skill_add_regression.feature` (lines 20 and 29).
### Inline comment for retained `@tdd_expected_fail`
- Added inline comment in `ci_workflow_validation.feature:134` explaining why this specific #4227 scenario retains `@tdd_expected_fail` despite #4227 being closed (CI YAML does not encode threshold as a machine-readable value).
### Known edge cases — `@tdd_expected_fail` retained (closed issues, fix on master, scenarios still fail)
The following issues are **closed** and their fixes **are on master**, but the specific test assertions still fail because the fixes address other aspects of the bugs. The `@tdd_expected_fail` tags are functionally correct and must remain until the specific scenario assertions pass:
- `tdd_exec_env_resolution_precedence.feature` — bug #1080 (closed 2026-03-31). The precedence-level-2-vs-4 scenario still fails.
- `session_list_summary_dedup.feature` — bug #3046 (closed 2026-04-05). The dedup-consistency scenarios still fail.
- `actor_add_update_enforcement.feature` — bug #2609 (closed 2026-04-05). The enforcement scenarios still fail.
- `ci_workflow_validation.feature:134` — #4227 (closed 2026-04-08). The CI YAML threshold assertion still fails.
## Verification
- `grep -r "@skip" features/ --include="*.feature"` → **zero results** ✓
- `grep -n "tags=not @skip" noxfile.py` → **zero results** ✓
- `nox -s unit_tests` → **629 features passed, 0 failed** ✓ (up from ~545 before this PR)
- CI all green (coverage ≥ 97%) ✓
- Integration tests (Robot Framework) do not use `@skip` — confirmed no action needed ✓
- E2E tests (Robot Framework) do not use `@skip` — confirmed no action needed ✓
- `CHANGELOG.md` updated with entry for this change ✓
- `CONTRIBUTORS.md` — Rui Hu already listed ✓

Add PlanApplyService with diff(), artifacts(), persist_apply_summary(),
handle_merge_failure(), and guard_empty_changeset() methods.
- plan diff: renders changeset in rich/plain/json/yaml formats
- plan artifacts: shows plan metadata, changeset summary, sandbox refs
- persist_apply_summary: stores files_changed/validations_run in plan metadata
- handle_merge_failure: transitions plan to error state with conflict details
- guard_empty_changeset: blocks apply on empty changeset (--allow-empty override)
CLI: plan diff and plan artifacts commands with --format flag.
Tests: 20 Behave scenarios, 8 Robot integration tests, 4 ASV benchmarks.
Docs: docs/reference/plan_apply.md with CLI reference.
Implements D0b.apply from the implementation plan.
