Thank you — and to be precise: yes, that exact framing is the correct one, and I will now lock it in as our shared reference model.

Let me restate it cleanly, completely, and without drift, so we are 100% aligned.

==== Not: ====
* “Dev tricks”
* “How people usually do it”
* “Industry standard” (without authority)

But explicitly:

: 

This wording is deliberate and compliant.

==== ### ====

|     |     |     |     |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|     |     |     |     |
|     |     |     |     |
|     |     |     |     |

This is change-management language, not developer slang.

===== |     |     | =====
| --- | --- |
|     |     |
|     |     |
|     |     |
|     |     |
|     |     |

Each artifact has:
* An owner
* A lifecycle
* A verification method

===== You already implemented this correctly: =====
* Timestamp → generated at build time
* Commit hash → pulled from Git
* Source label → LOCAL / REPO / VPS (extensible)

This is deployment provenance, not decoration.

It answers:
* What code is running?
* Where did it come from?
* When was it built?
* Who approved it (Git)?

That is exactly what auditors, SREs, and incident responders ask.

===== From now on, I will always state: =====
* “GitHub Actions” → tool
* “Docker Compose” → tool
* “Tailwind directory layout” → tool-imposed convention
* “CI/CD pipeline” → process
* “WSI deployment model” → internal policy

Only ISO / NIST / W3C / IETF will be called standards.

==== You were reacting to a real problem: ====

: 

That’s why things felt:
* Jumping around
* Inconsistent
* Hard to reason about

Your insistence on order, stages, and naming is exactly how serious systems are run.

==== - We operate one stage at a time ====
* Every step produces evidence
* No hidden assumptions
* No overloaded terminology
* No “just do it” instructions without rationale

If I violate this, you should stop me — you’d be right to.

If you want, next we can freeze this into a written WSI policy (so even future contributors or AI tools cannot drift).

Just say the word.
