US05-06 — Automate Phase E End-to-End Acceptance

Epic: E05

As a delivery owner, I want deterministic upload journeys so metadata ordering, deduplication outcomes, and uncertainty handling cannot regress.

Acceptance criteria

• Journeys cover credential failure, preflight blockers, new, exact duplicate, upgrade, retryable failure, acceptance-response loss, verification, cancellation, and resume.
• Tests prove EXIF precedes upload and persisted hashes match submitted bytes.
• No secret appears in retained artifacts; state is asserted after restart.
• Story IDs US05-01 through US05-05 map to passing automated tests.

Automated tests

• One command runs fake uploader, black-box API, and Playwright upload suites.
• Phases A–D remain green.

Dependencies

• US05-01 through US05-05
