Epic: VM Conversion Toolkit Full Build-Out

This epic governs the end-to-end delivery of the Azure Local VM Conversion Toolkit — from script refinement and test coverage through error handling, CI/CD, documentation, and full validation on both Azure Local and standalone Hyper-V environments.

Scope Boundaries

• Script refinement: Azure Local conversion path (scripts/azurelocal/) and Hyper-V path (scripts/hyperv/).
• Test coverage: Pester tests for all scripts with ≥80% coverage.
• Error handling: Rollback capability for failed conversions at each stage.
• Logging: Structured logging compatible with Azure Monitor.
• CI/CD: Lint, test, and release pipelines.
• Documentation: Getting started, runbooks, and troubleshooting guides.
• Validation: End-to-end conversion validated on reference hardware.

Hard Close Gate (Mandatory)

No child issue can close without all of:

1. Contract evidence: input parameters and expected outputs documented.
2. Repro evidence: conversion transcript + VM state before/after + Arc enrollment confirmation.
3. Test evidence: Pester tests passing for all scripts touched.
4. Dependency evidence: blocking cross-repo issues resolved or explicitly waived.
