+# Sprint 20260310_004 - Setup Topology Live Action Sweep
+
+## Topic & Scope
+- Verify the Setup/Topology slice against the rebuilt `https://stella-ops.local` stack with real Playwright interactions, not route-only checks.
+- Treat scope preservation as part of correctness: topology tabs and operator actions must keep the active tenant/region/environment/time-window context.
+- Working directory: `src/Web/StellaOps.Web`.
+- Expected evidence: live Playwright sweep JSON, focused Angular tests, execution log updates, and a scoped commit.
+
+## Dependencies & Concurrency
+- Depends on the rebuilt web bundle and healthy frontdoor stack already running through `devops/compose/docker-compose.stella-ops.yml`.
+- Safe to run in parallel with backend/search work as long as edits stay inside `src/Web/StellaOps.Web` and this sprint file.
+
+## Documentation Prerequisites
+- `docs/qa/feature-checks/FLOW.md`
+- `docs/modules/platform/architecture-overview.md`
+
+## Delivery Tracker
+
+### FE-TOPO-LIVE-001 - Capture live topology action evidence
+Status: DONE
+Dependency: none
+Owners: QA, Developer
+Task description:
+- Add a dedicated live Playwright script for Setup/Topology that exercises the shell tabs, overview CTAs, environment inventory actions, and environment detail actions on the authenticated frontdoor.
+- The sweep must fail when routes misnavigate, when runtime errors surface, or when actions drop active scope query parameters that should remain stable across topology flows.
+
+Completion criteria:
+- [x] A committed live sweep script exists under `src/Web/StellaOps.Web/scripts/`.
+- [x] The sweep captures fresh evidence under `src/Web/StellaOps.Web/output/playwright/`.
+- [x] Any failures are diagnosed to code-level root causes before implementation changes begin.
+
+### FE-TOPO-LIVE-002 - Repair topology scope-preserving navigation
+Status: DONE
+Dependency: FE-TOPO-LIVE-001
+Owners: Developer
+Task description:
+- Apply the existing Stella Ops scope-preserving navigation pattern to the topology shell and topology operator actions so the live context survives shell navigation and drilldowns.
+- Keep the fix scoped to topology unless a broader shared change is clearly required and low risk.
+
+Completion criteria:
+- [x] Topology shell navigation preserves active scope.
+- [x] Topology CTA/drilldown actions preserve active scope while adding route-specific parameters.
+- [x] Focused tests cover the changed navigation contracts.
+
+### FE-TOPO-LIVE-003 - Reverify live topology slice after fixes
+Status: DONE
+Dependency: FE-TOPO-LIVE-002
+Owners: QA
+Task description:
+- Rebuild the web bundle if needed, sync it into the live stack, rerun the exact topology sweep, and confirm the slice is clean.
+
+Completion criteria:
+- [x] The topology sweep passes with zero failed actions.
+- [x] The topology sweep reports zero runtime issues.
+- [x] Execution Log records the before/after evidence and the commit hash.
+
+## Execution Log
+| Date (UTC) | Update | Owner |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 2026-03-10 | Sprint created for the next live QA/developer iteration on Setup/Topology after the clean canonical frontdoor, policy, releases, notifications, and mission-control sweeps. | QA |
+| 2026-03-10 | First authenticated live topology sweep failed 25 actions with 0 runtime issues. Every failure traced to scope loss across topology shell tabs, CTA/drilldown links, or environment detail operator actions; two tab failures were harness selector collisions on partial `Security` and `Evidence` matches. | QA |
+| 2026-03-10 | Root cause analysis found two product defects: Topology links were not consistently using scope-preserving navigation, and `SecurityFindingsPageComponent.reloadFromFilters()` rewrote `/security/triage` without merge semantics, stripping the incoming topology scope. | Developer |
+| 2026-03-10 | Added focused navigation regressions for topology and security findings. Focused Angular run passed `6/6` assertions across `2` spec files. | Test Automation |
+| 2026-03-10 | Rebuilt the web bundle, synced `dist/stellaops-web/browser` into `compose_console-dist`, and reran the same live topology sweep. Final evidence is clean with `0` failed actions and `0` runtime issues in `src/Web/StellaOps.Web/output/playwright/live-setup-topology-action-sweep.json`. Commit hash pending local commit. | QA |
+
+## Decisions & Risks
+- Decision: treat scope preservation as a correctness requirement in topology because the active platform context changes the data surface on every page and drilldown.
+- Risk: `TabbedNavComponent` is shared across multiple shells. If topology needs scope-preserving shell tabs, prefer an opt-in contract instead of a silent repo-wide behavior change.
+- Decision: `TabItem` now supports opt-in `queryParamsHandling`, and Topology explicitly sets `merge` on its shell tabs. This preserves scope without changing every other shared tabbed navigation surface.
+- Decision: fixing the destination rewrite in `/security/triage` is mandatory. Accepting a scoped entry link is not sufficient if the landing page immediately discards the topology context.
+
+## Next Checkpoints
+- Capture the first failing topology live sweep.
+- Repair the navigation contracts and re-run the same sweep before committing.

@@ -156,6 +156,7 @@ Implementation update (2026-02-20):
   - `/topology/promotion-paths`.
 - Generic inventory fallback remains only for non-primary Topology routes (`/topology/workflows`, `/topology/gate-profiles`).
 - Region/environment global multi-select filters propagate as comma-joined query scope on Topology reads.
+- Topology shell tabs, drilldowns, and downstream triage handoffs preserve the active query scope so operator flows stay bound to the same tenant/region/environment/time-window context.
