v0.7.1 Surface Runner Framework

sw.testing SDK module — structured test framework for surface runners:
- suite/test registration, lifecycle hooks (beforeAll/afterAll/beforeEach/afterEach)
- Assertion library (ok/eq/neq/gt/match/throws/status/shape/arrayOf)
- Auto-cleanup via track(type, id) with LIFO deletion
- Three result statuses: passed/failed/warned
- Structured JSON results with timing, warnings, cleanup stats

test-runner manifest type:
- ValidateManifest accepts "test-runner" packages
- Excluded from sidebar nav (extensionNavItems filters surface/full only)
- DB migrations: SQLite 013, Postgres 014 (CHECK constraint)

ICD runner migration (kernel-only):
- Migrated from T.test()/T.assert() to sw.testing.suite()
- Stripped extension-dependent tests (channels, notes, personas, etc.)
- Kernel suites: smoke, crud, authz, security, providers, packaging, sdk
- Deleted ui.js + css (rendering delegated to registry surface)

SDK runner migration (kernel-only):
- Migrated from T.dualTest()/T.domains to sw.testing.suite()
- Stripped extension domains (belong in v0.7.2 package runners)
- Kernel suites: misc, workflows, admin, packages, connections, deps, composition

Runner registry surface (/s/test-runners):
- Admin-only dashboard discovering test-runner packages
- Run All / per-runner Run buttons, real-time results
- Export Failures / Export Full Results (JSON download)
- Dark mode styling using kernel CSS variables
- Suite count polling for async runner script loading

141 passed, 0 failed on fresh minimal install.

+## v0.7.1 — Surface Runner Framework
+
+**`sw.testing` SDK Module**
+- New kernel SDK module at `src/js/sw/sdk/testing.js`
+- `sw.testing.suite(name, fn)` — register test suites with lifecycle hooks
+- `sw.testing.run(name?)` — execute one or all suites, returns structured JSON
+- Suite context: `s.test()`, `s.beforeAll/afterAll()`, `s.beforeEach/afterEach()`, `s.track()`, `s.skip()`
+- Test context: `t.assert.ok/eq/neq/gt/match/throws/status/shape/arrayOf`, `t.warn()`, `t.skip()`
+- Auto-cleanup: `track(type, id)` registers resources for LIFO deletion in afterAll
+- Three result statuses: passed / failed / warned — warnings are never silent
+
+**`test-runner` Manifest Type**
+- New `"type": "test-runner"` in `ValidateManifest` — surface-like packages discovered by type
+- Test-runner packages excluded from sidebar nav (not type "surface" or "full")
+- Runner manifests support `"requires": [...]` — missing packages → clean skip
+
+**ICD Runner Migration**
+- Migrated from hand-rolled `T.test()`/`T.assert()` framework to `sw.testing.suite()`
+- Stripped extension-dependent tests (channels, notes, personas, etc.) — those belong in v0.7.2 package runners
+- Kernel-only suites: smoke, crud (admin, profile, notifications, teams, workflows, extensions, surfaces, packages), authz, security, providers, packaging, sdk
+- Type changed to `"test-runner"`, standalone route removed, UI rendering delegated to registry
+
+**SDK Runner Migration**
+- Migrated from `T.dualTest()`/`T.domains` framework to `sw.testing.suite()`
+- Dual-path validation preserved: SDK call + raw ICD fetch + verdict dispatch
+- Stripped extension domains — kernel-only suites: misc, workflows, admin, packages, connections, dependencies, composition
+- SHAPE_BUG verdict maps to `t.warn()`, SDK_BUG/ICD_BUG to `t.assert.ok(false)`
+
+**Runner Registry Surface**
+- New `test-runners` surface at `/s/test-runners` (admin-only)
+- Discovers installed test-runner packages via admin packages API
+- Dynamically loads each runner's JS to register suites
+- Run All button, per-runner Run button, real-time results dashboard
+- Suite/test results with pass/fail/warn/skip color coding, timing, error details
+- Export Failures / Export Full Results buttons for JSON download
+- `requires` checking with prominent skip display for missing dependencies
+- Dark mode styling using kernel CSS variables
+
+**Database Migration**
+- SQLite migration 013: adds `test-runner` to packages.type CHECK constraint
+- Postgres migration 014: same constraint update
+
 ## v0.7.0 — Shell Contract + Surface Audit + Rebrand
