- A RE-TEST entry: from == to, digest = the registry's new digest, digest_from = the tested one, box_evidence.
ladder.check_entry refuses one with no new digest, no digest_from or no box proof; check-test-record rule 2b
ties digest_from to the previous entry's digest; check-test-record-move now judges re-tests too (they change
.felhom.yml only — the gate looked at compose moves alone) and refuses a digest the registry no longer serves.
Decoys: 8 cases in test_gate_decoys.py, seen red with the rules switched off.
- upgrade-test.py --retest <app> [svc]: FROM the ladder head's tested digest TO the registry's current one, the
full method; --write-ladder writes a re-test entry (plain refs + digest_from), refusing without the box venue or
when the registry moved again. Writer tests, red-proofed.
- scripts/retest-floating.py — ONE command: --dry-run lists, --engines-only is the ruled start; bench, box
(retest_box.py on 9202 via the drill catalog), writer, gates, one commit per app. box_walk.py moves the box
client into the catalog. Run today: nothing to re-test on the database/redis lines.
- End to end on 9202 (drill): docmost at the OLD redis digest, the re-test, "run tonight's chain now" -> the leg
pressed it, the new digest runs, read back, badge current.
- Also: upgrade-test.py BENCH_ENV_OVERRIDES (R-739, wanderer's DB address on the bench, recorded per verdict);
test_gate_decoys.py read kimai's tag and date from the clone (red on main since kimai moved).

update_ladder: in .felhom.yml, one JSON entry per line (spiked live on
controller v0.266.0 and v0.267.0 first). Two gates: check-test-record.py
(static, CI too) and check-test-record-move.py (history + registry for
moved refs only). 16 decoys, 3 red-proofs. The ONLY writer is
upgrade-test.py --write-ladder (bench AND box proven, digests resolved).
Harness v3: box fixtures on the bench, files_may_change.
Backfill: the 21 moves of 2026-09-22, 21 proven from their records.
No image: line moved.
