Article-draft / retrospective in docs/the-integration-gap.md capturing the full-stack local-run cascade from this session (env → emulator → ports → auth → gRPC → saga). Honest characterization of the open #148 saga-over-emulator limitation (Wolverine ASB endpoints need a management API the emulator doesn't serve; real fix is ManagementConnectionString → port 5300, tracked on #148).

Walkthrough

Adds a documentation draft describing seven integration gaps found during a full local end-to-end run of the NextAurora Aspire stack, including emulator limitations, configuration analysis, the unresolved Wolverine ASB saga issue, follow-up actions, and current status.

Changes

Integration Gap Documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Introduction and seven-gap catalog docs/the-integration-gap.md	Frames integration gaps as issues missed by isolated tests, then catalogs seven observed failure categories across environment, emulator fidelity, ports, authentication, gRPC, and broker management.
Emulator capability surface and configuration analysis docs/the-integration-gap.md	Describes emulator capability constraints, a two-mode strategy gated by Wolverine:AutoProvision, and why disabling management alone does not establish ASB endpoints and senders.
Takeaways, status, and allowlist support docs/the-integration-gap.md, .claude/tombstones-allowlist.txt	Records follow-up actions and current end-to-end status, and allowlists the retrospective document.
