+
+- Working branch created from `origin/SIPS-Development`:
+    - `TASK22028-phase15-hardening-slice`
+- Delivered consistency-only hardening across 4 additional sensitive file handlers:
+    - `pages/api/file/upload.js`
+    - `pages/api/file/uploadsinglefile.js`
+    - `pages/api/file/createappealcompletemessage_api.js`
+    - `pages/api/file/setupcontainer.js`
+- Hardening posture updates:
+    - standardized explicit early 400 on missing hash where validation was already required
+    - standardized early hash-mismatch return path style in `setupcontainer`
+    - preserved response-shape/signature contracts (no intended contract changes)
+- Added focused phase-15 tests:
+    - `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
+    - negative-path checks for missing/invalid hash across all selected handlers
+    - required-input negative-path checks where applicable
+    - one valid-hash mocked happy-path check (`setupcontainer` response shape)

+### CL-026: Phase 15 hardening — consistency guards for additional hash-sensitive file handlers
+
+date: 2026-03-13
+author: Cline
+scope: `pages/api/file/{upload,uploadsinglefile,createappealcompletemessage_api,setupcontainer}.js`, `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
+type: change
+rationale: Deliver a small reversible consistency-only hardening slice by standardizing missing/invalid hash negative paths and required input handling in additional sensitive file handlers.
+impact: Consistent early 400 behavior for missing/invalid hash and missing required params while preserving existing response shapes/signatures.
+status: completed
+
+Summary:
+
+- Started new branch from `origin/SIPS-Development`: `TASK22028-phase15-hardening-slice`.
+- Applied minimal hardening updates:
+    - `upload.js`: explicit missing-hash guard before hash comparison.
+    - `uploadsinglefile.js`: explicit missing-hash guard before hash comparison.
+    - `createappealcompletemessage_api.js`: added missing-hash guard to existing required-input guard block.
+    - `setupcontainer.js`: standardized to early-return on hash mismatch; contract and status behavior preserved.
+- Added focused tests:
+    - `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
+    - covers missing-hash negative paths for all selected handlers
+    - includes required-input negative paths and one valid-hash happy-path shape check.
+
+Validation:
+
+- `node tests/phase6/service-parity.test.cjs` -> pass
+- `node tests/phase6/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (8/8)
+- `node tests/phase7/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)

+- `node tests/phase13/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (7/7)
+- `node tests/phase14/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
+- `node tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
+- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing hook dependency warnings)
+- Manual checks on `localhost:3002`:
+    - invalid/missing hash for each selected handler -> 400
+    - missing required params where applicable -> 400
+    - valid-hash spot-check (`setupcontainer`) -> 200
+
+Follow-ups:
+
+- Continue small-batch consistency hardening for remaining sensitive handlers where guard patterns are still inconsistent.
+- Keep manual happy-path checks constrained to feasible local dependencies; document downstream/environment-caused failures separately.

+    - standardized explicit early 400 handling for missing hash in handlers where hash validation was present but missing-hash guard was inconsistent
+    - standardized guard style in `setupcontainer` to early-return on hash mismatch (same status/contract)
+    - standardized missing required hash handling in `createappealcompletemessage_api`
+    - preserved response shapes and signatures (no contract changes)
+- Added focused phase-15 tests:
+    - `tests/phase15/service-behaviour.test.cjs`
+    - negative-path coverage for missing hash across all 4 handlers
+    - additional required-input checks where applicable
