Design minimal, deterministic changes for the Adobe Dispatcher Apache HTTP Server module and related HTTPD configuration in AEMaaCS, then verify with MCP evidence.
Use only these Dispatcher MCP tools:

- [ ] 1) Confirm scope and acceptance criteria; if the repo layout is unclear, normalize it with `repo-layout-workflows.md`
- [ ] 2) Apply cloud guardrails (immutable files, required includes, symlink topology, required wildcard ServerAlias coverage, reserved probe paths, preserved cloud vhost defaults, CDN-vs-Dispatcher boundary)
- [ ] 3) Decompose target URLs (path/selectors/extension/suffix) and use that model for all URL-based rules—filters, cache rules, etc.—using `/path`, `/selectors`, `/extension`, `/suffix` or aligned globs (not raw `/url`) where applicable; then design complete section-level edits
- [ ] 4) Update config with least-privilege defaults (produce final merged section, not isolated rule snippets)
- [ ] 5) Run static checks: validate -> lint (deep/order-aware when filters changed)
- [ ] 6) Run SDK checks: `sdk({"action":"check-files","config_path":"<dispatcher src path>"})`, `sdk({"action":"diff-baseline","config_path":"<dispatcher src path>"})` as needed
- [ ] 7) Run runtime verification in container-backed environment
- [ ] 8) Return diff, evidence table, risk/rollback, and citations

Always include:
Permission-sensitive caching (/auth_checker) is end-to-end: it requires both Dispatcher config and an AEM servlet. When implementing Playbook G from scratch, create or verify the auth-check servlet in the project core bundle (path /bin/permissioncheck, HEAD/GET, 200 or 403) and allowlist it on publish; then add the /auth_checker block, filter allow for the endpoint, and /allowAuthorized "1" in /cache. See config-scenario-playbooks.md Playbook G and reference-snippets.md.
