 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added — PostgresControlPlaneStore: the scale profile ships (ADR 0010 slice 5, 2026-07-03)
+
+- **New `src/serving/control_plane/postgres.py`** — all six control-plane
+  state classes as PostgreSQL tables behind the existing port, with the claim
+  semantics the embedded adapter only satisfies degenerately made real:
+  enqueue-win by `INSERT .. ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING` rowcount, queue/outbox
+  claims by `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` + a self-expiring `lease_expires_at`
+  (work-stealing across replicas, no leader election; a crashed owner's rows
+  become due again on lease expiry), invariant 8 as an ordinary transaction
+  (every store method is one transaction: commit on success, rollback on any
+  exception). Payloads stay TEXT/JSON-string so callers see the embedded
+  adapter's shapes. One connection per call — pooling stays out of ADR scope.
+  Selection: `AGENTFLOW_CONTROLPLANE_STORE=postgres` +
+  `AGENTFLOW_CONTROLPLANE_PG_DSN` (+ optional
+  `AGENTFLOW_CONTROLPLANE_LEASE_SECONDS`); the slice-1 `NotImplementedError`
+  ratchet is gone, and a missing DSN or missing `psycopg` fails the boot
+  loudly — never a silent fallback to embedded. `psycopg` is a new optional
+  extra (`pip install agentflow-runtime[postgres]`), the `redis` import
+  pattern.
+- **Webhook registrations (state class 5) move behind the port** — the
+  sharpest split-brain of the ADR's inventory was still a per-pod YAML read
+  outside the port after slices 1–4. New port methods
+  `load_webhook_registrations`/`save_webhook_registrations`;
+  `load_webhooks`/`save_webhooks`/`create_webhook`/`list_webhooks`/
+  `get_webhook`/`deactivate_webhook` now take `app` and resolve the store
+  inside (the same move the alert-rule helpers made in slice 2). The embedded
+  adapter keeps the byte-compatible `config/webhooks.yaml`.
+- **Alert-tick single-flight (ADR 0010 §2) wired into the dispatcher** — new
+  port methods `claim_alert_tick`/`complete_alert_tick`;
+  `AlertDispatcher.dispatch_alerts` claims each rule before evaluating (a
+  lost claim = another replica owns that rule's tick) and persists advanced
+  rule state **per rule** in the same transaction as the claim release — the
+  old full-set save would let two replicas advancing different rules clobber
+  each other's runtime state. Embedded grants every claim (one process), so
+  the single-replica profile behaves as before; a CRUD full-set save on
+  PostgreSQL upserts by id and does not release an in-flight claim.
+- **The postgres profile shares one store across every consumer**: `main.py`
+  injects the app-wide store into `AuthManager` and `OutboxProcessor` when
+  the profile is external (embedded keeps its historical private stores);
+  the analytics entry points (`analytics.py`, `routers/admin.py`,
+  `admin_ui.py`'s QPS tile) accept the store handle and route through
+  `AuthManager.store`, so usage/sessions land in PostgreSQL instead of a
+  per-pod DuckDB file.
+- **Verified live (standalone PostgreSQL 17.5, no Docker): 31/31 probes** —
+  the ADR's named suite (parallel claim exclusivity, lease-expiry re-drive,
+  restart re-drive, enqueue-win uniqueness, outbox↔dead-letter atomicity
+  incl. rollback halves, alert-tick single-flight) plus a full contract
+  parity sweep and an end-to-end app test (two boots on the postgres profile
+  see each other's webhook registration; usage accounting lands in PG):
+  `docs/perf/control-plane-pg-verify-2026-07-03.md`. The same suite runs in
+  CI against a new `postgres:17` service in the integration job and
+  self-skips where `AGENTFLOW_TEST_PG_DSN` is absent.
+- Helm is untouched by design: the values schema still pins
+  `controlPlane.store=embedded` and the chart still refuses multi-replica
+  renders — the enum extension and env/secret wiring are rollout slice 6,
+  which this slice unblocks.

+# Control plane on PostgreSQL — live verification (ADR 0010 rollout slice 5)
+
+**Date:** 2026-07-03
+**Environment:** standalone PostgreSQL 17.5 (EDB windows-x64 binaries, no
+Docker, no service install: `initdb` + `pg_ctl`, port 55433, trust auth,
+user/db `agentflow`) — the same no-Docker standalone-PG recipe that verified
+the vault governance layer
+(`vault-pii-governance-pg-verify-2026-07-02.md`). Adapter under test:
+`src/serving/control_plane/postgres.py` (`PostgresControlPlaneStore`),
+driven by the probe suite the ADR names for this slice:
+`tests/integration/test_control_plane_postgres_live.py` with
+`AGENTFLOW_TEST_PG_DSN=postgresql://agentflow@127.0.0.1:55433/agentflow`.
+
+**Result: 31/31 probes passed** (`pytest`, 19.45s; psycopg 3.3.4). The same
+suite runs in CI against the `postgres:17` service container added to the
+`test-integration` job (it self-skips when the DSN env var is absent, the
+`test_clickhouse_backend_live.py` pattern).
+
+## The ADR's named probes
+
+| Probe (ADR 0010 § Rollout 5) | Test | Result |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Enqueue-win uniqueness | 8 threads race `enqueue_webhook_delivery` on one (webhook, event) → exactly **1** `True`, 1 row | passed |
+| Parallel claim exclusivity | 4 threads claim 10 due rows concurrently → no row handed out twice, none lost (`FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED`) | passed |
+| Lease-expiry re-drive | row claimed with a 0.4s lease, owner "crashes" → invisible while leased, claimable again after expiry; outcome writes clear the lease so backoff alone governs | passed |
+| Restart re-drive | pending row enqueued by one store instance is claimed by a **fresh** instance, canonical body verbatim | passed |
+| Outbox↔dead-letter atomicity (invariant 8) | `mark_outbox_sent` flips both rows in one transaction; with `dead_letter_events` dropped mid-scenario the outbox flip **rolls back** (row stays `pending`); `enqueue_outbox_replay` rolls back symmetrically | passed |
+| Alert-tick single-flight (§2) | second claimant loses; `complete_alert_tick` persists the advanced record and releases in one transaction; a stale claim self-expires; a concurrent CRUD full-set save does **not** release an in-flight claim | passed |
+
+## Contract parity sweep
+
+Every port method exercised against live PostgreSQL with the same assertions
+the embedded adapter's unit pins make: webhook outcome state machine
+(backoff → `dead` at max, success → `delivered`, park), oldest-first claim
+ordering under `limit`, attempt-log and alert-history roundtrips (newest
+first, JSON payload decoded), webhook-registration and alert-rule
+repositories (order preserved via a `position` column, full-set save =
+YAML-replace semantics, ids required), dead-letter reads (tenant scoping,
+reason filter, pagination, stats + trend), usage accounting (per tenant /
+per key / old-key-slot hour window), session analytics (idempotent
+insert-or-replace on `request_id`, usage/top-queries/top-entities/latency
+percentiles/anomalies/QPS shapes, malformed window → `ValueError`, QPS
+degrades to 0.0 on an unreachable server).
+
+## End to end: the app itself on the postgres profile
+
+`test_app_on_postgres_profile_shares_state_across_boots` boots the real
+FastAPI app twice with `AGENTFLOW_CONTROLPLANE_STORE=postgres`:
+
+- boot #1 resolves `PostgresControlPlaneStore` in the lifespan,
+  `AuthManager.store` **is** the shared app-wide store (slice 5 injection in
+  `main.py`), and `POST /v1/webhooks` registers a webhook;
+- boot #2 (a second pod, in production terms) sees that registration through
+  `GET /v1/webhooks` — the class-5 per-pod YAML split-brain is gone;
+- `api_usage` rows for the authenticated tenant landed in PostgreSQL, not in
+  a local DuckDB file.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Claim leases default to 300s (`AGENTFLOW_CONTROLPLANE_LEASE_SECONDS`
+  overrides); alert-tick leases are 120s (`AlertDispatcher.tick_lease_seconds`).
+- Payload columns are TEXT holding JSON strings — callers see the same
+  "string, you decode it" shape as on the embedded adapter.
+- One connection per method call, no pooling (out of ADR 0010 scope,
+  recorded follow-up).

 The number of suppressions per file is pinned by `test_interpolated_sql_nosec_surface_is_pinned` — a new site (even inside an already-listed file) or a new file fails CI and forces a review. Each suppression's per-line rationale comment is enforced by `test_nosec_comments_carry_reason`.
