## 1. Summary of Verified Fixes

| Requirement | Implementation & Changes | Verification Status |
|---|---|---|
| **1. Canonical Installer (`HermesHubSetup.cs` -> `HermesHubSetup.exe`)** | Updated `HermesHubSetup.cs` to version `0.1.1`, added `EnsurePythonDependencies` (`customtkinter`, `Pillow`, `PyYAML`, `psutil`), `assets/` recursive copying to target & plugin directories, and post-install import smoke test. Recompiled via `build_installer.ps1` to `dist/HermesHubSetup.exe`. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **2. P0-1 Dependency Installation** | If `customtkinter` or `PIL` are absent in the target Hermes venv, installer bootstraps `ensurepip` / `pip` / `uv` and installs required packages, verifying import before completing. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **3. Branding & Provider Assets** | `assets/branding/` and `assets/providers/` deployed into installation and plugin directory; `paths.get_branding_dir()` and `paths.get_providers_assets_dir()` resolve from installed locations without repository path fallbacks. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **4. Post-Install Import Smoke Test** | Executes `python.exe -c "import customtkinter; from PIL import Image; import antigravity_provider.router.hermes_hub_app; print('HERMES_HUB_IMPORT_OK')"`; non-zero exit or missing sentinel fails installation. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **5. Clean Live Install Test** | Executed `HermesHubSetup.exe /silent` in a clean disposable sandbox venv without `customtkinter`/`Pillow`. Verified dependencies installed, assets present, and native UI module imported without crash. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **6. P0-1 Test Coverage** | `test_p0_1_installer_dependencies` verifies installer source specification for dependencies, assets, smoke test, and runtime availability. | `[UNIT VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **7. S7 Test Isolation** | Canonical installer documentation and test isolation policy defined in `installer/README.md`; unit tests isolated from Registry / Start Menu. | `[UNIT VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **8. M1 Dev URL Bypass Closure** | `is_allowed_update_host(..., allow_dev_local=False)` in production path. Local files/paths are strictly rejected in production mode and allowed only with `HERMES_HUB_DEV_MODE=1`. | `[UNIT VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **9. M2 Release Gate Counters** | Aligned all headings and messages to exact count `16/16`. | `[UNIT VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **10. M3 Settings Caching** | Implemented mtime-based cache in `settings_service.py` with cache invalidation on save to eliminate JSON disk I/O on every LLM routing request. | `[UNIT VERIFIED]` ✅ |
| **11. Public Release Feed** | Created public repository `ochenstarik-ui/hermes-hub-releases`. Published `update_manifest.json` returning HTTP 200 without BOM. | `[LIVE VERIFIED]` ✅ |
