gates / gates (push) Failing after 7s
release path publishes, and an unreleasable version fails CI (R-115, R-183)
NO VERSION BUMP and nothing built: no Go code changed. The agent stays v0.120.0.

scripts/release-agent.sh — THE way to release. build -> tag -> publish -> verify
by INDEPENDENT download. Publishing was a separate remembered step and was
forgotten three times in five days (R-111's 17 stranded releases, 0.114.0, and
0.120.0 — deployed to both demo hosts and undownloadable, so a documented-path
reinstall would have silently downgraded them WHILE REPORTING SUCCESS). R-111's
own closing line named this leg and closed SHIPPED without it; it recurred the
same afternoon, which is the evidence that a note is not a mechanism.

It tags because felhom-host-install.sh now fetches the sixteen agent config
files from raw/tag/v<version>/ (R-183): a released version with no tag 404s a
box mid-install, as root, on a virgin machine. It verifies by downloading what
it just published and comparing the sha to what it built — the publish step's
own success is a report on its own write; a fetch returning the right bytes is
a different claim. It refuses a dirty/unpushed tree and refuses to re-release an
existing version. It does NOT vouch: that points machines at a version and stays
the operator's act.

scripts/check-published-versions.py — the gate. Every v<semver> tag must have a
downloadable package AND a tag tree serving the agent's configs. Registered as
NOT --fast (needs network; a push must not fail because Gitea blinked), and the
CI workflow now runs the FULL gate set instead of --fast — otherwise the gate
would have been registered and never run, the built-but-never-wired failure this
project has shipped four times.

The invariant is not the one specified, and the reason was measured, not assumed:
the hub artifact manifest is 401 without a per-customer passphrase and Gitea's
package LISTING api is 401 without a token, while the package DOWNLOAD url and
the git TAGS api are anonymous. So CI cannot ask "what is vouched" without an
operator credential — whose addition is the operator's call. The tag-based
invariant needs none and catches all three recorded instances. What it does not
catch (the hub vouching a version never released at all) is filed as R-184.
