-Give the healthcheck a self-test and a machine-readable mode
+Route the healthcheck output through one helper
 
 - Project: test-e2e
-- Source: gitea:test-e2e/10
+- Source: gitea:test-e2e/15
 - Priority: 0
 
 ## Instructions
 
-Three pieces of work, in order. Plan them as exactly three phases in that order.
+`scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh` prints its success line from more than one place. Centralise the output so every path goes through one helper, and give that helper an explicit format argument rather than reading a global.
 
-## Phase 1 — a self-test for the healthcheck
-
-New file `scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh`, executable, `#!/usr/bin/env bash`.
-
-It runs `scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh`, then asserts:
-
-- exit status is 0
-- stdout contains `OK`
-
-On failure it prints which assertion failed and exits 1. On success it prints `selftest: ok` and exits 0.
-
-Verification for this phase is automated only. The one check is:
-
-    - run: ["bash", "-n", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh"]
-
-Do not add a manual step to this phase.
-
-## Phase 2 — `--json` on the healthcheck
-
-`scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh --json` prints exactly one line:
-
-    {"status":"ok","checks":1}
-
-and exits 0. Without `--json` the existing human output is unchanged, and `--help` keeps working. `--json` and `--help` together behave as `--help`.
-
-Verification for this phase must include both an automated check and a manual step. The JSON shape is a judgement a human confirms by reading it, so state the manual step as the exact command a human runs and the exact line they should see.
-
-## Phase 3 — teach the self-test about `--json`
-
-Extend `scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh` to run the healthcheck twice: once plain and once with `--json`. Assert the plain run still contains `OK`, and assert the `--json` run prints one line beginning with `{"status":`.
-
-Verification for this phase is automated only:
-
-    - run: ["bash", "-n", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_selftest.sh"]
-    - run: ["bash", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh"]
-
-## Constraints
-
-The project's verification policy allows exactly two command shapes:
-
-    ["bash", "-n", "<one file>"]
-    ["bash", "scripts/orchestra_e2e_healthcheck.sh"]
-
-A `run:` line outside those is refused when the plan seals, not later.
+Behaviour must not change. The plain run, `--quiet`, `--help` and `--json` all keep their current output and exit statuses, and `scripts/test_healthcheck.sh` keeps passing.
 
 ## Research first
 
-Before planning, establish at least three findings and label their confidence honestly: at least one `fact`, one `inference`, and one `assumption`. The plan must cite at least two of them in References.
+Establish at least three findings with distinct confidence: at least one `fact`, one `inference`, one `assumption`.
