docs(harness): add automated background testing sketchbook#640
Merged
Conversation
Pre-/devspec working notes capturing the design conversation that produced Plan: Gamma — the wave-pattern test harness foundation (Epic #626 sub-issue #1). Records the tier structure, five locked decisions (ccwork-testtarget repo, Python+pytest runner, GitHub fixtures under Wave-Engineering, GitLab fixture under gitlab.com/testtarget, $4-8/night cost), Phase 1 / Phase 2 v0 scope, and four open questions deferred to /devspec walk. Closes #639

main(priorinstall.shremoval +discord-bot→disc-servermigration left tests behind). Unrelated to this PR; flagged separately as the kind of rot Plan: Gamma's nightly run will surface continuously.docs/(plural) used becausemcp__sdlc-server__ibmrejectsdoc/(singular) despite the documented convention. Worth a follow-up to align the regex.
