[[fxdemo:05-part:18-acceptance-criteria:start | Return to Acceptance Criteria ]]

The Repository satisfies Phase 0 acceptance when it contains the approved Baseline structure, separates Artifact types clearly, and supports repeatable development and review.

Repository acceptance requires:

  - The Repository contains the approved top-level directory structure.
  - The Repository includes a ''README.md'' file that identifies the Repository purpose, Baseline status, setup steps, build steps, run steps, stop steps, and Evidence locations.
  - The Repository separates handwritten source files from generated Artifacts.
  - The Repository separates IDL source definitions, Configuration, scripts, containers, tests, documentation, logs, and Evidence.
  - The Repository includes a ''.gitignore'' file that excludes local virtual environments, temporary logs, build outputs, container runtime Artifacts, local overrides, editor caches, and other non-Baseline files.
  - The Repository identifies where checklist instances, implementation decision records, Node Catalogue entries, Topic Catalogue entries, and acceptance Evidence live.
  - The Repository avoids undocumented top-level directories.
  - The Repository contains no machine-specific, personal, temporary, or unexplained Artifacts in the controlled Baseline.

A reviewer can clone the Repository and understand the intended structure without relying on private knowledge from the original developer.
