# REPORT — agent v0.129.0: a correct code for an earlier package (R-311, 2026-08-12)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**No release. No version bump. No binary published. `scripts/` only** — nothing that runs on a
|
## What changed and why
|
||||||
customer's machine changed, and the agent stays **v0.128.0** at `28ba8593b8`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## What changed
|
Yesterday's drill proved a retained escrow package **works** — unsealed with the old recovery code, it
|
||||||
|
opened a set-aside store and restored planted files byte-identical — while this agent answered that
|
||||||
|
same correct code with *"the recovery code did not open the sealed bundle"*. Nothing had ever tried
|
||||||
|
the retained packages, so a correct-but-earlier code and a mistype were genuinely indistinguishable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
| file | why |
|
- `internal/hub/client.go` — `FetchRetainedIdentityEscrow` → `GET /api/v1/hosts/<id>/escrow/retained`
|
||||||
|---|---|
|
(hub ≥ v0.103.0). **A 404 is a clean "none"**, not a fault: an older hub must not turn into a failed
|
||||||
| `scripts/retention-policy.json` **(new)** | THE retention number, in one place, with its reasoning and its honesty about where the number came from |
|
recovery.
|
||||||
| `scripts/check-published-versions.py` | reads that number; bounds its assertion to the newest N; **prints what it stopped covering** |
|
- `internal/escrow/recover.go` — optional `FetchRetained`, `ErrCodeOpensRetained` +
|
||||||
| `scripts/check-release-complete.py` **(new)** | asserts the CHANGELOG-head version is tagged, placed in this history, and published |
|
`RetainedOpenedError{SupersededAt, KeyFingerprint, Index, HasResticPassword}`. Consulted **only**
|
||||||
| `scripts/agent_gates.py` | registers the new gate; legs 1–2 are offline so it runs in `--fast` too |
|
after the current package refuses.
|
||||||
|
- `internal/localapi/escrow_recover.go` — a **fifth** case on the R-224 switch: **422**, with
|
||||||
|
`opens_retained`, `superseded_at`, `retained_has_restic_pw`. Added to the switch, not a restructure.
|
||||||
|
- `cmd/felhom-agent/main.go` — the retained fetcher wired on the same self-scoped hub client.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## The coupling defect, and the fix
|
## Fail-safe, in every direction
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The prune keeps the newest N; the published-versions check demanded that **every** tag be
|
nil fetcher · hub without the route (404) · transport failure · malformed package → **the original
|
||||||
downloadable. Nothing connected them, so CI went red at `28ba8593b8` — a commit whose own run had
|
refusal stands, unchanged**. The worst outcome of this feature breaking is the behaviour before it.
|
||||||
been **green the day before** — and would have gone red again at the next publish when `0.121.0` was
|
Attempts bounded (`MaxRetainedTried`, default 6) — each unwrap is ~1 s of scrypt, so an unbounded loop
|
||||||
evicted. Both now read `generic_versions_kept` from one file.
|
would turn one wrong code into a minutes-long hang.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**What CI no longer covers:** a released version **older than the retention window** is no longer
|
## Tests — 7, with REAL age crypto
|
||||||
asserted downloadable. Its git tag and its config tree are still asserted; only the binary's presence
|
|
||||||
is dropped. The check names the dropped versions on every run.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**The number is not a located ruling.** `generic_versions_kept: 10` is what the registry demonstrably
|
Real crypto because the two situations are indistinguishable **at the unwrap**; a faked unwrap would
|
||||||
holds; no register row records a prune, and container packages hold 19 each. The file says so in its
|
prove nothing about what was broken. Full suite green (`go build`/`vet`/`test ./...`), agent gates OK.
|
||||||
own header. The principled bound is the hub's vouched `min_agent` floor — nothing can install below
|
|
||||||
it — and that is recorded as the follow-up.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Controls, all three run
|
**Red-proof, mutation asserted applied before the run:** remove the `tryRetained` block from
|
||||||
|
`RecoverOffsiteRepoPassword` →
|
||||||
|
`err = escrow: the recovery code did not unwrap the identity escrow (wrong recovery code…)` →
|
||||||
|
`TestRecover_CodeOpensRetainedPackage_IsNotAWrongCode` FAILS. **The lie returns, in those words.**
|
||||||
|
That is the layer the lie actually lives in: removing the *controller's* case yields the neutral
|
||||||
|
message instead, because R-224's safe default catches it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
| control | expected | got |
|
## Released and deployed
|
||||||
|---|---|---|
|
|
||||||
| live run, policy = 10 | green, and it names `0.120.0` as not asserted | **exit 0**, and it did |
|
|
||||||
| widen policy to 11 | `0.120.0` re-enters the window and convicts | **exit 1**, `FAIL v0.120.0` |
|
|
||||||
| policy file removed | INCONCLUSIVE, never silently unbounded | **exit 2**, naming the path it tried |
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Red-proof of the new gate
|
`release-agent.sh 0.129.0` — tagged `v0.129.0`, published, **verified by independent download**,
|
||||||
|
sha256 `53a54f0620afbd6d…`. Installed on `felhom-pve`, `felhom-agent --version` = 0.129.0, unit active,
|
||||||
|
journal clean (normal PBS verify cycle). **NOT VOUCHED** — that stays the operator's act.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Mutation: `CHANGELOG.md` head repointed to `## v0.129.0` — never tagged, never published. Asserted
|
## Bypass, stated as required
|
||||||
applied (`grep -c '^## v0.129.0'` → 1). Result **exit 1**, both legs convicting:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```
|
`git push --no-verify` was used **once** for the code push. The `release-complete` gate refuses a
|
||||||
- TAG v0.129.0 DOES NOT EXIST. … without the tag every install 404s mid-run, as root.
|
CHANGELOG entry whose tag and package do not exist, and `release-agent.sh` refuses a tree that is not
|
||||||
Fix: git tag -a v0.129.0 <released-commit> && git push origin v0.129.0
|
pushed — circular by construction. The bypass was immediately followed by the real release; gates were
|
||||||
- PACKAGE 0.129.0 IS NOT PUBLISHED (HTTP 404 …).
|
re-run afterwards and are **green**, and the tag+package now exist.
|
||||||
Fix: bash scripts/release-agent.sh 0.129.0
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Reverted; `git status` clean on `CHANGELOG.md`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Green gate
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`python3 scripts/agent_gates.py` — `reuse-refs OK · instructions OK · published OK ·
|
|
||||||
release-complete OK · all agent gates OK`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Not done here
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The deleter of `0.120.0` is **still not established** and a second attempt failed — Gitea keeps no
|
|
||||||
package-deletion trail, its container log no longer reaches the window, and the activity feed carries
|
|
||||||
no package operation. Recorded in R-287, including the withdrawal of my own earlier over-claim that
|
|
||||||
the router logs showed no DELETE: they do not cover the window, so they never said anything.
