TASK-131 - Add RCON data pipeline validation script

Goal

Add one lightweight validation script for the full RCON data pipeline.

Background

The RCON data pipeline now spans parsing, storage, AdminLog ingestion, materialized matches, player stats and backend APIs. A focused script should help implementation workers and reviewers validate the pipeline without requiring real RCON for unit tests.

Constraints

• Do not require real RCON for unit tests.
• Do not modify Docker behavior.
• Do not reactivate Elo/MMR.
• Do not reintroduce Comunidad Hispana #03.
• Do not store secrets, runtime DB files or backend/runtime.
• Document when real RCON or Docker smoke checks are skipped.

Allowed Changes

• scripts/run-rcon-data-pipeline-tests.ps1
• possibly scripts/run-integration-tests.ps1 only if wiring the new script is appropriate and low risk
• documentation only if needed for the new command
• this task file when moving it through the workflow

Implementation Requirements

• Work from a dedicated branch for this task.
• Read first:
  • AGENTS.md
  • ai/architecture-index.md
  • ai/repo-context.md
  • ai/orchestrator/backend-senior.md
  • scripts/run-integration-tests.ps1
  • existing backend tests for AdminLog/parser/materialization
• Add scripts/run-rcon-data-pipeline-tests.ps1.
• Validate Python compile.
• Run parser tests.
• Run storage/materialization tests.
• Include optional backend endpoint smoke checks if Docker is already running.
• Skip real RCON-dependent checks gracefully with a clear message.

Validation Commands

• powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/run-rcon-data-pipeline-tests.ps1
• powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/run-integration-tests.ps1

Manual Verification Steps

• Confirm the script can run without real RCON credentials.
• Confirm skipped Docker/RCON smoke checks explain why they were skipped.
• Confirm existing integration script still passes.
• Confirm no product behavior changed.
• Confirm git diff --name-only matches the allowed scope.

Git Requirements

• Create a dedicated branch for this task, for example codex/task-131-rcon-pipeline-validation.
• Run relevant validation before committing.
• Stage only intended files.
• Commit the completed implementation.
• Push the branch to origin.
