Establish The CATES Baseline

Name: 14.01-cates-foundations-baseline
Author: autocloudarc-digital-services

Objective

Prepare the isolated CATES learning track and save a first report without changing the calculator or any root coding-agent configuration.

Required Steps

Read cates-exercises/01-cates-foundations.md and cates-exercises/README.md.
Confirm PowerShell 7, Git, Node.js 20 or later, and npm are available.
Run cates-exercises/scripts/Install-CatesTool.ps1 and report the pinned commit. If network or package restore fails, stop with the exact error and do not substitute another analyzer version.
Run Initialize-CatesWorkspace.ps1 and Test-CatesWorkspace.ps1.
Analyze only cates-exercises/workspace/sample-repository/.
Save the pretty report as cates-exercises/workspace/sample-repository/reports/01-baseline.txt.
Summarize the score, grade, conformance, always-loaded tokens, and highest severity without claiming improvement.

Scope And Safety

Do not modify .github/copilot-instructions.md, root workflows, main labs, calculator source, or the immutable workspace template. Do not add packages to the calculator repository.

Validation

Confirm the baseline report exists and name CATES standard 1.0.0-draft and reference commit e49da25b0bd94068419bda2a0c73fbb42c527e7e separately.
