Outcome and scope

Complete Python/Java compatibility handoff and reproducible progress-page retest. Merge into feature/python-client only, not develop. All changes are under python-client/; no Java/API, worldview or ODO source changes.

Reproduction and exact IDs

See python-client/docs/develop-worldview-compatibility-issue.md for:

• Exact commands, explicit hosted endpoints, private-certificate setup, mutation consent and owned-scope cleanup.
• All seven actual live test IDs: 4 passed, 3 failed, zero errors/skips, across a six-test invocation and a separate renewal invocation.
• Current missing-m/mm-unit and empty-dataflow issues, their observed wire/Job symptoms, scientific impact and Java/platform investigation handoff.
• Every progress-page notebook's tested/blocked boundary and existing controlled acceptance IDs for remaining gates.
• Original pinned missing-import/domain failures preserved separately, not declared fixed.
• Packaging correction and local/package reproduction commands.

Machine-readable retest evidence and hashes: python-client/docs/results/progress-page-connected-verification.json; earlier environment/read-only evidence remains in ide-connected-semantic-verification.json.

Changes and validation

• Real certificate authentication, readiness, model discovery/profile persistence, certificate renewal and fresh-process saved-context restoration pass.
• Metre and millimetre unit contracts fail before DTO conversion; the tiny terrestrial-region Job fails with empty dataflow. These remain ordinary failing opt-in live tests, not xfails/skips.
• Added bounded connected suites and explicit owned-work permission/separation from TEST-stack suites; borrowed-client readiness preserves ownership and original assertions.
• Fixed omission of the public hosted profile from the source distribution, verified absent before and present after.
• Final offline suite: 1,073 passed; existing feature line/branch coverage gates and Ruff selection passed; sdist/wheel and fresh core-only installed-wheel smoke passed. Coverage run had 1,072 tests before the final renewal suite-routing parameter was added; no SDK code changed afterward.
• No shared/IDE service restart, project import or test-control invocation. Only test-owned session/context/Job work, with cleanup.

This merges an accurate compatibility report, reproducible diagnostics/tests and scoped Python fixes. It does not claim full scientific acceptance, successful unit mediation, native exports, independent accuracy, scientific throughput, ACL certification or repair of the old pinned Java/worldview/ODO tuple.
