+## v0.135.0 — the restore test proves only backups OF A GUEST (2026-09-27, R-689)
+
+> **RELEASED 2026-09-27** by `scripts/release-agent.sh` — tag `v0.135.0` (`d4be12c`), sha256 `ad4e75f16d338552f4588d3fe64c51cbf9651220b9d223b5386b85b6c37fd4c3`, verified by download. **NOT vouched** (the operator's act).
+
+**MinAgent impact:** none required by any controller.
+
+- **R-689** (`backup/runner.go` `guestBackupArchive`). demo-hp keeps its golden template in `local:backup/` — content
+  "backup", 654 MB, plausibly complete, the newest settled entry — and the scheduled restore test picked it every 6 h and
+  failed `extractconfig` with a 403, while the guest's real archive went untested. A restore-test candidate is now a
+  `vzdump-{lxc,qemu}-<vmid>-…` file or a PBS `backup/{ct,vm}/<vmid>/…` snapshot whose vmid the storage reports; anything
+  else is skipped with one INFO line per volid (not the "INCOMPLETE archive" WARN). Tests
+  `TestR689_TheRestoreTestNeverPicksTheGolden` (red-proof: without the check it picks the golden) and
+  `TestR689_GuestBackupArchiveShapes`; two older picker tests' fixtures moved to real archive names.
+  Evidence: `felhom.eu/documentation/audits/version-travel-2026-09-26/D1/`.
