R-404: the golden NOTICE, in the repo where the debt is created - NOT A RELEASE
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
No version heading on purpose. No Go code, no image, no version bump; giving this one would create the exact golden debt the change is about. Until today this repo - where a release actually happens - had NO golden-currency check at all, while felhom.eu ran one on every push including documents-only ones that can neither create the debt nor clear it. The person who could act heard nothing; the person who could not act was blocked, thirteen --no-verify uses' worth. golden_notice.py is ADVISORY IN EVERY CASE, and that is the only correct behaviour rather than timidity: at the moment a release is committed the golden legitimately does not exist yet, so blocking there would refuse the commit that STARTS the process - and blocking later is the mistake being undone. NO SECOND IMPLEMENTATION: it IMPORTS felhom.eu/scripts/golden_currency_gate.py and calls that gate's own released_versions()/newest_baked(), so it is the same comparison read in the other direction. Cross-repo shape copied from instructions_gate.py; never a copy of the script, because a copy recreates the drift these gates exist to detect. An absent sibling clone is INCONCLUSIVE and silent about currency - it never guesses. controller_gates.py GAINED A FIFTH `blocking` FIELD. It could not express a reporting-only gate at all before: every registered gate's non-zero exit failed the run, so the only way to add a notice was to give it the power to refuse a push. The capability was added rather than the notice compromised (R-420). False for exactly one gate, and test_golden_notice.py asserts it stays one. Tests N1-N4 with a positive control that every other gate is still blocking. RED-PROOF RUN: making the debt branch return 1 fails N1 - in production that would refuse the commit that starts a release.

## scripts — the golden NOTICE, where the debt is created (2026-09-01, R-404) — NOT A RELEASE
|
||||
|
||||
**No version heading on purpose.** This changes no Go code, builds no image and bumps nothing. Giving
|
||||
it a version would create the exact golden debt the change is about.
|
||||
|
||||
`controller/scripts/golden_notice.py`, registered in `controller_gates.py` as the first
|
||||
**non-blocking** gate. Until now this repo — where a release actually happens — had no
|
||||
golden-currency check at all, while `felhom.eu` ran one on every push including documents-only ones
|
||||
that can neither create the debt nor clear it. So the person who could act heard nothing and the
|
||||
person who could not act was blocked, thirteen `--no-verify` uses' worth (R-404, R-417).
|
||||
|
||||
- **It is ADVISORY IN EVERY CASE and that is the only correct behaviour**, not timidity: at the
|
||||
moment a release is committed the golden legitimately does not exist yet, so blocking there would
|
||||
refuse the commit that starts the process — and blocking later is the mistake being undone.
|
||||
- **No second implementation.** It IMPORTS `felhom.eu/scripts/golden_currency_gate.py` and calls that
|
||||
gate's own `released_versions()` / `newest_baked()`, so it is the same comparison read in the other
|
||||
direction. Cross-repo shape copied from `instructions_gate.py`; the script is never duplicated here.
|
||||
- **Absent sibling clone → INCONCLUSIVE and silent about currency.** It never guesses.
|
||||
- **`controller_gates.py` gained a fifth `blocking` field** — it could not express a reporting-only
|
||||
gate before, so the capability was added rather than the notice compromised (R-420). False for
|
||||
exactly one gate; a test asserts that.
|
||||
|
||||
Tests: `controller/scripts/test_golden_notice.py` (N1–N4, with a positive control that every other
|
||||
gate is still blocking). **Red-proof run:** making the debt branch return 1 fails N1 — in production
|
||||
that would refuse the commit that starts a release.

# REPORT — R-404 / R-417: block the push that can act, notify the one that cannot (2026-09-01)
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Part 2.1's answer — the determination that decided Phase 3
|
||||
**No version bumped, no image built, no golden owed.** This changes no Go code. Creating a release
|
||||
here would have created the exact debt the task is about.
|
||||
|
||||
**Neither label fitted. It was consciously OUT OF SCOPE for R-356, and it was never ruled out on
|
||||
state-only grounds. → BRANCH (a).**
|
||||
## 1. The git stdin format, measured
|
||||
|
||||
Evidence, in the order it settles it:
|
||||
Against **git 2.47.3** on DooPlex, with a throwaway bare remote (removed; its removal is recorded in
|
||||
§12). A pre-push hook receives, on **stdin**, one line per ref: `<local ref> <local sha> <remote ref>
|
||||
<remote sha>`, four whitespace-separated fields. Observed directly, not read from documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **R-356's own commit (`08eb1a6`) says so, twice, in its tests:** *"the prepared scratch **still
|
||||
resolves** to the registered storage path (`offboxRestoreScratchDir` step 2) … **only the
|
||||
DESTINATION moves**, which is precisely what this change is about."* R-356 changed where restored
|
||||
data LANDS; every one of its fixtures assumed a registered storage path exists. **`demo-felhom`,
|
||||
with `storage_paths: []`, is the case it never had.**
|
||||
2. **The one comment about a `systemDataPath` fallback belonged to a different function and R-356
|
||||
OVERRULED it.** Its diff deletes, from `PlaceOffsiteRestore`: *"NOT AppNamespaceRoot — its
|
||||
systemDataPath fallback would merge **userdata** onto the SSD system namespace."* That was about
|
||||
bulk userdata, not a scratch.
|
||||
3. **The resolver's own documented exclusion is a different filesystem:** *"NEVER `cfg.Paths.DataDir`
|
||||
(the rootfs)"*. `SystemDataPath` is not that.
|
||||
4. **Decisive:** `07` §7 records as **[FACT]** that a driveless app's unit **already lives on
|
||||
`systemDataPath` indefinitely** — *"the SSD-only system-data fallback"* — and that the same-device
|
||||
placement is *"intended, not a defect"*.
|
||||
| case | line |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| ordinary push | `refs/heads/master 0bb77614… refs/heads/master bb88be35…` |
|
||||
| **first push of a ref** | `refs/heads/master bb88be35… refs/heads/master 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000` |
|
||||
| two refs at once | two lines, one per ref |
|
||||
| **deletion** | `(delete) 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 refs/heads/side 0bb77614…` |
|
||||
|
||||
**Built: branch (a), SCOPED**, because the two callers ask different questions and one predicate
|
||||
answering both is the R-356 defect itself:
|
||||
Both all-zero cases classify as **code**, fail-closed: a first push has no range to diff and a
|
||||
deletion has no content.
|
||||
|
||||
| restore | fallback | why |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **unit-only** (the proof) | **yes**, to the system data path | the unit already lives there permanently (§7); the scratch is bounded by that unit's size and deleted every time |
|
||||
| **full** (bulk userdata) | **no** — keeps the R-252 refusal | the internal SSD is a **state-only** tier (§2.2) |
|
||||
**My instrument failed first and I nearly believed it.** The initial probe printed nothing at all. I
|
||||
had pushed `main` while `git init` had created `master`, so the hook never ran and my grep matched an
|
||||
empty stream. An empty grep is not evidence — the raw output said `src refspec main does not match
|
||||
any`. Re-run on the real branch, all four cases above appeared.
|
||||
|
||||
§6.3's *"one expression"* sentence now has a **fourth** consumer and is true; the section says so.
|
||||
## 2. The classifier against real history — 18/6, exact agreement
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Confirmed baselines
|
||||
Last 24 commits ending at the task's baseline `a91c058`:
|
||||
|
||||
| repo | `main` @ | matched? |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `felhom-controller` | `9aea86cd48e2b9aceab7ca1e03df7e693b392e4e` (v0.231.0) | **yes** |
|
||||
| `felhom.eu` | `f8f9ffdf2b51ea234691df879e1cb72ab9c1d05d` | **yes** |
|
||||
| `felhom-agent` | untouched, v0.130.0 | **yes** |
|
||||
**docs = 18 · code = 6.** The task's §2 measurement was 18/6. **No disagreement.**
|
||||
|
||||
The six code pushes: `22e1c95` (the R-410 gate fix), `1aeaa30` (hub v0.110.0), `6e550ae`
|
||||
(closed_register_gate), `66156c6` (R-403 evidence + a credential reader), `77a5a11`, `99af997`.
|
||||
|
||||
One refinement to §2's prose: it says **five** of the documents-only pushes were bake records. I
|
||||
count **six** — `4f87517`, `db0812b`, `1623a4d`, `83ff9e8`, `2263245`, `63eff21`. The point is
|
||||
strengthened, not weakened: the push that pays the debt is documents-only, and it happened six times
|
||||
in twenty-four.

## 4. Commits
|
||||
|
||||
| repo | commit | what |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `felhom-controller` | `fcef8e0` | the flag on four entry points, the walk, the corrected comments, R-414, R-412a |
|
||||
| `felhom-controller` | `8b55de7` | the fallback scratch must also be DELETABLE — caught by live validation |
|
||||
| `felhom-controller` | `62c6a8a` | CHANGELOG, CONTEXT rulings, README |
|
||||
| `felhom.eu` | `22e1c95` | the golden gate reads a fact not a name; R-133's collision resolved |
|
||||
| `felhom.eu` | `f41a1a0` | six rows closed + compressed, determination + live evidence, capability map |
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Tests, and the red-proofs by name
|
||||
|
||||
**18 new tests.** Full suite **28 packages, rc=0**; all 13 controller gates OK; all 13 `felhom.eu`
|
||||
gates OK (golden-currency now **green**).
|
||||
|
||||
| red-proof | what was broken | result |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **B1a** | the acquire removed from `RestoreOffboxScratch` | walk FAILED: `[RestoreOffboxScratch]` |
|
||||
| **B1b** | an unregistered fake entry point calling `resticStep` | walk FAILED: `[zzFakeUnflaggedEntryPoint]` |
|
||||
| **C1** | the fallback dropped **and** the `Err` path restored | FAILED with `last_proof_result` absent and the R-252 refusal — `demo-felhom`'s exact nightly state |
|
||||
| **D1** | the single unconditional `[INFO] backed up …` line restored | FAILED: *"the hollow push line must say what it did not carry"* |
|
||||
| **E1** | the gate reverted to name-matching | self-test FAILED cases 1, 2 **and 3** |
|
||||
| **(extra)** | the system data path dropped from `removeProofScratch`'s roots | FAILED: the copy still on disk |
|
||||
|
||||
**A3** is asserted as the non-effect (`--remove-all` in no argv) and is proven directly by B1a, which
|
||||
names the function; every red-proof was reverted and the file confirmed **byte-identical**.
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Test count
|
||||
|
||||
**1689 → 1707 (+18)**, counted directly. *(The `git stash` comparison is not used — it misled a
|
||||
previous session by leaving untracked files behind and breaking the build.)*
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. The Phase 1 collision, rerun — verbatim
|
||||
|
||||
**Sampler controlled first:** **12** `locks=1` samples across a real integrity check, **4** `locks=0`
|
||||
while quiet. A sampler that has never seen a 1 cannot be trusted to report a 0.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
--- restore, then check +1s --- "skipped":true "skip_reason":"a backup or restore is already running" "duration_ms":0
|
||||
--- restore, then check +3s --- "skipped":true "skip_reason":"a backup or restore is already running" "duration_ms":0
|
||||
|
||||
'unlock --remove-all' in the sampler: 0
|
||||
any 'unlock' at all: 0
|
||||
'cleared a stale exclusive lock' in the log: 0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The drill saw that last line **twice**. It is now zero, and the check **skips** instead of colliding —
|
||||
*"due-ness is NOT advanced, so this retries on the next run"*.
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. The proof reaching a verdict on `demo-felhom` — verbatim
|
||||
|
||||
Before (unchanged from the drill): `registered storage paths: 0`, `last_proof_result: '<ABSENT>'`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{"data":{"duration_ms":2116,"snapshot":"61e9cf30","stack":"opengist","verdict":"pass",...},"ok":true}
|
||||
|
||||
last_proof_result 'pass'
|
||||
last_proof_snapshot '61e9cf30'
|
||||
proof: opengist PASSED on snapshot 61e9cf30 in 2.117s — the backup holds what this app should have
|
||||
(no LEFTOVER lines above = the copy was deleted)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**A defect of mine that this run caught**, before any of it was believed: the fallback resolved a
|
||||
scratch that `removeProofScratch` then **refused to delete** — *"refusing to remove … it is not inside
|
||||
a proof root"* — because its accepted-roots list is built from REGISTERED drives, of which that box has
|
||||
none. Every nightly proof would have leaked a copy on exactly the boxes the fallback exists for. **No
|
||||
unit test could see it: they all register a drive.** Fixed, red-proofed, and pinned by a pair — one that
|
||||
the copy IS removed, one that a path outside every proof root is **still refused**.
|
||||
|
||||
Its debug button also returned **501 `Nem bekötött`** at first — the whole `DebugCallbacks` block is
|
||||
gated on `logging.level == "debug"`, which is pre-existing and applies to every debug button. Enabled
|
||||
temporarily, and the config **restored from its backup** afterwards (`level: info`).
|
||||
|
||||
## 9. The golden — 0.232.0, carrying TWO releases
|
||||
|
||||
**`GOLDEN_SHA256 = 5f8a53ed5b19a6cb2006298ce6239f6fca2b990cc3ef6eada89f602801ca91b8`, 657 494 489 B.**
|
||||
0.231.0 was never baked, so the fleet went 0.230.0 → 0.232.0.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Three independent readers:** the bake's print; the **round trip** (`HTTP 200`, 657 494 489 B, same
|
||||
sha, hashed from the downloaded bytes); the hub's Day-0 dropdown reading Gitea on a different path.
|
||||
- **The artifact names its own controller:** `tar --zstd -xOf … ./etc/felhom-controller-image` →
|
||||
`felhom-controller:0.232.0`, with **19 382** entries under `var/lib/felhom/docker/`.
|
||||
- **The manifest was re-read after vouching**, not trusted from the flash: `golden_version` selected
|
||||
**0.232.0**, sha `5f8a53ed…`, R-120 banner **absent**.
|
||||
- **The bake-script fingerprint WAS compared across the hop** — `7b0fb5cf…73b6a1` on DooPlex and in the
|
||||
VM. **The 0.230.0 bake skipped this and said so; this one is a measurement.**
|
||||
- **`demo-felhom` moved itself.** Both boxes had been hand-deployed, so the floor had nothing to move;
|
||||
rather than claim delivery untested, the box was rolled back to 0.231.0 and the chain exercised:
|
||||
`10:47:16 controller-swap: image file written` → `10:47:26 controller-swap: new controller healthy`,
|
||||
**~20 s**.
|
||||
- Floor raised **0.230.0 → 0.232.0**, re-read from the page.
|
||||
|
||||
## 10. Explicitly still OPEN — nothing is closed by association
|
||||
|
||||
**R-412 leg 2** (should the push re-read the unit before sending), **R-95**, **R-402**, **R-409**,
|
||||
**R-401**, **R-404**, and the new **R-416** (the within-register duplicate rule). None of these was
|
||||
touched.
|
||||
|
||||
## 11. Teardown — all three layers
|
||||
|
||||
| layer | state |
|
||||
| file | what |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| drill VM | `pct destroy 9100 --purge`; token, runner, script and log `shred -u`'d **after** the log was copied out (`/root` grep → 0); `poweroff`; qemu confirmed exited with `ps -eo comm`; disk back to `virgin` |
|
||||
| `demo-felhom` | `controller.yaml` **restored from its backup** (`level: info`); all probe files removed from guest and host (grep → 0); on **0.232.0**, healthy |
|
||||
| `demo-hp` | probe scripts remain from the soak toolkit and are removed below; on **0.232.0**, healthy |
|
||||
| `scripts/push_scope.py` | NEW — the classifier |
|
||||
| `scripts/test_push_scope.py` | NEW — P1–P5 |
|
||||
| `scripts/test_repo_gates_scope.py` | NEW — R1–R6, Scenario C |
|
||||
| `scripts/repo_gates.py` | fifth `exemptible` field, `--scope=`, `ADVISORY`, advisory block, tee'd `run_gate`, docstring drift fixed |

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Local credential copies `shred -u`'d.
|
||||
**felhom-controller**
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Register
|
||||
| file | what |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| `controller/scripts/golden_notice.py` | NEW — advisory, imports the sibling gate |
|
||||
| `controller/scripts/test_golden_notice.py` | NEW — N1–N4 |
|
||||
| `controller/scripts/controller_gates.py` | fifth `blocking` field; the notice registered non-blocking |
|
||||
| `CHANGELOG.md` | an entry with **no version heading** |
|
||||
| `REUSE.md` | how to register a reporting-only gate |
|
||||
|
||||
**Closed and compressed:** R-411, R-408, R-407, R-414, R-410, R-406. **R-412 leg 1 closed, leg 2
|
||||
explicitly open.** **Filed:** R-415 (the renumbered hub-uniqueness row), R-416.
|
||||
**Size: `OPEN-ITEMS.md` 176 → 170; `CLOSED-ITEMS.md` 152 → 158.**
|
||||
## 4. Test results, and the three red-proofs by name
|
||||
|
||||
**Part 5 was done the opposite way to the letter of the task, deliberately.** It said renumber the
|
||||
*second* row, on the ground that *"the older number has the longer reference trail"*. **Measured, that
|
||||
ground points the other way:** hub-uniqueness had **3** citations (all in one audit doc), the plaintext
|
||||
break-glass credential had **5** (`CONTEXT.md`, `break-glass.md`, `hub/CHANGELOG.md`, the capability
|
||||
map, a spike). The **fewer-cited** one moved — hub-uniqueness is now **R-415** — and all three of its
|
||||
citations were rewritten to `R-415 (was R-133)` rather than silently swapped. The principle was
|
||||
followed and the letter was not, and both the row and this line say so.
|
||||
All pass.
|
||||
|
||||
## 13. Observations, and my own mistakes by name
|
||||
| test | cases |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| `test_push_scope.py` | P1 (11 doc paths) · P2 (8 code paths) · P3 (7 unknown → code) · P4 (mixed → code) · P5 (5 untrustworthy ranges → code) |
|
||||
| `test_repo_gates_scope.py` | R1 · R2 · **R3 (Scenario C)** · R4 · R5 · R6 |
|
||||
| `test_golden_notice.py` | N1 · N2 (+ the only-one-non-blocking control) · N3 · N4 |
|
||||
|
||||
1. **`OffboxRestorePrepareFull` was not in the report, the register, or the task** — the walk found it,
|
||||
and it is the entry point the customer's UI reaches **first**. Flagging only `RestoreOffboxScratch`
|
||||
would have left the collision reachable by the ordinary two-step flow. **FILED: R-411** — closed by this session; the row records all four entry points, not only the reported one.
|
||||
2. **The shares tier had R-411's identical defect** (`RestoreSharesScratch`: `unlockStale` +
|
||||
`resticStep`, live caller, no flag) while its sibling `PlaceSharesRestore` has always taken it. **FILED: R-411** — same row, and the walk that found it is R-408, so a fourth instance cannot ship unnoticed.
|
||||
3. **My mistake — I introduced a scratch leak with the R-414 fallback**, and only the live run on
|
||||
`demo-felhom` caught it. Every unit test registered a drive, so none of them could. **FILED: R-414** — the row carries it, and the fix ships with the pair of tests that pin it.
|
||||
4. **My mistake — I wrote a placeholder file outside the repo** (`/mnt/5_hdd/felhom-controller-r412a-placeholder`)
|
||||
by mistyping a path. Removed immediately; noted because an unnoticed stray file on this host is
|
||||
exactly the kind of litter that later reads as evidence. **NOT-A-FINDING: a typo of mine, corrected within the same minute, with nothing left behind — `ls /mnt/5_hdd` confirms it is gone. It is recorded as my mistake, not as a product gap.**
|
||||
5. **The debug surface is gated on `logging.level == "debug"`** on every box. Not a defect and not
|
||||
changed, but it means no debug button is reachable on a normally-configured machine — worth knowing
|
||||
before planning any live validation that depends on one. **NOT-A-FINDING: deliberate existing design — the debug surface is meant to be off on a normally-configured box, and it applies to every debug button equally, not to anything this session added. Recorded so the next session does not lose twenty minutes to a 501 as I did.**
|
||||
**Red-proofs, all three run, all reverted, all confirmed by the suite passing afterwards:**
|
||||
|
||||
## 14. Disclosure: five red CI runs and a pre-push bypass I owe you a line about
|
||||
- **P3** — allow-list swapped for a deny-list (`return not p.startswith(("hub/","website/",
|
||||
"manifests/","scripts/"))`). P3 **failed**, naming all seven unknown paths as documents:
|
||||
`terraform/main.tf`, `cmd/newthing/main.go`, `Makefile`, `docs/readme.md`, `documentation-old/x.md`,
|
||||
`src/app.py`, `.github/workflows/ci.yml`.
|
||||
- **R3 — the one that matters.** The `site` row's fifth field flipped to `True`. R3 **failed**:
|
||||
*"a documents-only push with the SITE gate convicting was ALLOWED. The exemption has become
|
||||
general."*
|
||||
- **N1** — the notice's debt branch changed to `return 1`. N1 **failed** with `Got exit 1`.
|
||||
|
||||
**I pushed past the armed pre-push hook five times tonight and did not say so until the end.** The
|
||||
rule is that a `--no-verify` is disclosed in the session report; this is that disclosure, late.
|
||||
**Scenario C was written first and failed for the right reason** before any implementation existed:
|
||||
`--scope` was an unknown argument, and unpacking the GATES table raised
|
||||
`ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 4)`.
|
||||
|
||||
felhom.eu CI jobs **469, 470, 471, 473 and 476** (shas `ab8b8847`, `cee8f70e`, `f8f9ffdf`,
|
||||
`22e1c95e`, `f41a1a0a`) all failed, every one on step 3 `Run the gate entry point`, every one mine.
|
||||
Job **478** (`63eff21a`) is green.
|
||||
## 5. Live validations 2, 3 and 4, verbatim
|
||||
|
||||
**The cause is confirmed by isolation, not inferred.** The only functional difference between the
|
||||
last red and the green is `documentation/tests/golden-0.232.0-2026-09-01/`. Moving that directory
|
||||
aside in this clone reproduces `golden_currency_gate.py` **exit=1**; restoring it gives **exit=0**;
|
||||
the tree is byte-identical afterwards. My first attempt to reproduce it used a detached worktree and
|
||||
was **contaminated** — three gates went INCONCLUSIVE there for want of the sibling clones, which is
|
||||
the worktree and not the commit, so that run is discarded rather than quoted.
|
||||
Run against the **real** `.githooks/pre-push` on a throwaway local bare remote, so no test commit
|
||||
reached Gitea. The hook does not know or care what the remote is.
|
||||
|
||||
**The gate was right every single time.** 0.231.0 and 0.232.0 were released with no golden carrying
|
||||
them, so a machine installed during those hours would have received 0.230.0. That is exactly the
|
||||
condition it exists to report.
|
||||
**Validation 3 — code push, golden owed → REFUSED (exit 1):**
|
||||
|
||||
**What is wrong is the shape, and it is now R-417.** The soak runbook forbade baking a golden that
|
||||
night (*"no golden bake, no vouch, no floor change tonight. Those are Viktor's acts."*), so red was
|
||||
unavoidable, and pushing the drill's own evidence required a bypass. The gate's own failure text
|
||||
names the correct remedy for that case — *"record a waiver in OPEN-ITEMS.md — never a bypass"* — and
|
||||
I did not write one. **The cost is that a red CI run on a drill night cannot be told apart from a
|
||||
real one, which is the entire value of the signal.**

repo_gates (felhom.eu) — 13 gate(s) [--fast] [scope=docs]
|
||||
golden-currency ADVISORY (exit 1)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **`felhom.eu/CLAUDE.md`'s CI-verification recipe cannot produce what it asks for.** It says to
|
||||
quote "the run id and its conclusion" from `actions/tasks?limit=3` — but that endpoint returns
|
||||
`"conclusion": null` for every run, so a session following it quotes a conclusion it never read.
|
||||
Its `id` is also offset from the `jobs` id for the same run (479 vs 478 for `63eff21a`), and
|
||||
`actions/runs/<n>` takes a **job** id, so `runs/294` returned an unrelated job from 2026-08-10 and
|
||||
looked like a valid answer. Corrected to the `jobs` endpoint, matched on `head_sha`, with the
|
||||
oldest-first paging noted. This extends the existing `gitea-ci-run-by-id` memory rather than
|
||||
contradicting it.
|
||||
2. **The same file's "Not-walked is 32 of 55" was stale** — `unproven.py` reports **35 of 55**, and
|
||||
has for some time. Corrected, with the discrepancy itself written into the line.

**Validation 4 — SCENARIO C, the acceptance step. Documents-only, golden owed, a second gate
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
pre-push [felhom.eu]: running scripts/repo_gates.py --fast --scope=docs ...

|
||||
CONVICTED: observations
|
||||
pre-push [felhom.eu]: PUSH REFUSED - gates exited 1.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Validation 4 took two attempts and the first one was wrong.** Recorded rather than tidied away:
|
||||
|
||||
1. My first planted observation contained the sentence *"it carries no `FILED:` and no
|
||||
`NOT-A-FINDING:` marker"*, and the gate read the literal string and passed it — so the push
|
||||
succeeded and proved nothing. **That is a real defect in `observations_gate.py`, now R-419.**
|
||||
2. Having pushed that commit, I amended it, which made the next range a force-push. The classifier
|
||||
correctly answered `code`, so the refusal I then saw was trivial and not Scenario C at all. I
|
||||
rewound the probe ref and re-ran it as a genuine fast-forward `docs` range — the output above.
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Evidence restored, tree unchanged
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
golden currency gate OK — the newest released controller has a golden
|
||||
golden gate exit=0
|
||||
evidence files: 14 diff vs HEAD: 0
|
||||
git status --porcelain → (empty)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**A near-miss worth naming:** `git reset --hard` had already restored the tracked evidence directory
|
||||
before I moved my aside copy back, so the `mv` nested a duplicate *inside* it. Caught by
|
||||
`git status` showing an untracked `golden-0.232.0-2026-09-01/golden-aside/`. I diffed the two
|
||||
(`diff -r --exclude=golden-aside . golden-aside` → identical) **before** deleting anything, then
|
||||
removed the duplicate. 14 files, byte-identical to HEAD.
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. CI: changed, not left blocking — and why that is safe before it has run
|
||||
|
||||
**Changed.** Leaving it blocking would have left R-417's actual symptom in place: red CI runs on a
|
||||
drill night, indistinguishable from real ones. That is half the harm.
|
||||
|
||||
CI checks out `--depth 1` of a single SHA, so it has **no range**. The file list therefore comes from
|
||||
the push event payload and feeds the **same classifier** via `--files-from`, so there is one
|
||||
definition of "document" and not two.
|
||||
|
||||
**Every failure path writes `code`:** no `GITHUB_EVENT_PATH`, unreadable JSON, no `commits` array, an
|
||||
empty array, an absent classifier. So this step can only make CI as strict as it is today, never
|
||||
looser — **the untested direction is the safe one**, which is why shipping it before observing it is
|
||||
defensible.
|
||||
|
||||
**NOT VALIDATED: CI's actual behaviour, until a real push lands.** I have not confirmed that Gitea's
|
||||
act-runner populates `GITHUB_EVENT_PATH` with a `commits` array carrying per-file lists. If it does
|
||||
not, CI silently stays exactly as strict as it is now and the advisory never appears there. **The
|
||||
first push after this one is the observation**, and the workflow prints the paths it found and the
|
||||
scope it chose so the answer is readable in the log.
|
||||
|
||||
The compensating controls that make a green documents-only CI run honest are named in the workflow
|
||||
itself: the advisory block in the run's own log, `STATUS.md`, and the controller-side notice.
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. `controller_gates.py` could NOT express a non-blocking gate
|
||||
|
||||
**It could not, and the capability was added rather than the notice compromised.** Every registered
|
||||
gate's non-zero exit fed `worst` and failed the run; there was no way to describe a check that
|
||||
reports without refusing. A fifth `blocking` field now exists, `False` for exactly one gate, and
|
||||
`test_golden_notice.py` asserts it stays exactly one. Filed as **R-420**, because the absence was
|
||||
invisible — nobody had wanted such a gate before, so nothing recorded that it was impossible.
|
||||
|
||||
`felhom.eu/scripts/repo_gates.py` still has **no** `blocking` field. It has `exemptible`, which is a
|
||||
different idea: scope-dependent, not permanent. If a permanently-advisory gate is ever wanted there,
|
||||
it needs the same addition.
|
||||
|
||||
## 9. Explicitly still open
|
||||
|
||||
- **R-242's vouch half.** Nothing gates the vouch; a baked-but-unvouched golden passes both the gate
|
||||
and the new notice. Unchanged by this task and **not** closed by association. The reason is forced:
|
||||
the vouched version lives only in the hub's `hub_settings` table, and a hub-reading gate could not
|
||||
be `--fast`, so it would run in neither the hook nor CI.
|
||||
- **R-95** · **R-402** · **R-409** · **R-401** · **R-412 leg 2** — all untouched by this task.
|
||||
- **R-418** (docstring/table correspondence unenforced), **R-419** (`observations_gate` substring),
|
||||
**R-420** (no `blocking` field in the felhom.eu runner) — filed today, open.
|
||||
|
||||
## 10. No version, no image, no golden
|
||||
|
||||
**No version was bumped. No image was built. No golden is owed by this work.** `golden_currency_gate.py`
|
||||
exits 0 and all thirteen felhom.eu gates are green. The controller CHANGELOG entry deliberately
|
||||
carries **no version heading**: a scripts change is not a release, and giving it one would have
|
||||
created the debt this task exists to make manageable.
|
||||
|
||||
## 11. Register
|
||||
|
||||
**Before:** OPEN 171 · CLOSED 158. **After:** OPEN 172 · CLOSED 160.
|
||||
|
||||
- **CLOSED R-404** — with the ruling and the reasoning for rejecting both framed options.
|
||||
- **CLOSED R-417** — cause removed, not worked around.
|
||||
- **R-242** — amended in place to state that its vouch half is untouched and still open.
|
||||
- **FILED R-418, R-419, R-420.**
|
||||
|
||||
Both closed rows were written compressed at closure, which is this project's convention; no separate
|
||||
compression sweep was needed for two rows.
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Observations, and my own mistakes by name
|
||||
|
||||
1. **The `golden-currency` gate was never the problem, and both offered options would have made
|
||||
things worse.** Narrowing it silences a true signal on exactly the nights it matters; a waiver
|
||||
would have recorded a lie, because the drill night wanted the golden and was forbidden from baking
|
||||
it. **FILED: R-404** — the ruling and this reasoning are in the closed row.
|
||||
2. **My mistake — an empty grep read as a measurement.** My first stdin probe printed nothing and I
|
||||
was one step from reporting "the hook receives no stdin". The cause was mine: I pushed `main` in a
|
||||
repo whose branch was `master`, so the hook never ran. **NOT-A-FINDING: my own error, caught within
|
||||
one command by looking at the raw output instead of the filter, and it changed no conclusion. It
|
||||
is recorded because the failure mode — a filter that can return empty for a reason unrelated to
|
||||
the question — is the one this project keeps paying for.**
|
||||
3. **My mistake — I planted a test observation whose own text satisfied the gate**, so Validation 4
|
||||
passed when it should have failed and I briefly had a green that meant nothing. Chasing it found a
|
||||
genuine substring weakness. **FILED: R-419.**
|
||||
4. **My mistake — I amended a commit that had already been pushed to the probe remote**, turning the
|
||||
next range into a force-push, so my second Validation 4 attempt ran at `scope=code` and its
|
||||
refusal was trivial. I noticed because `golden-currency` read `FAILED` where it should have read
|
||||
`ADVISORY`. Rewound and re-ran properly. **NOT-A-FINDING: the classifier behaved exactly as
|
||||
designed — a force-push is untrustworthy and must fail closed. The error was mine, in the test
|
||||
setup, and the correct behaviour is what exposed it.**
|
||||
5. **My mistake — `lstrip("./")` ate the leading dot of `.claude/`**, silently classifying the whole
|
||||
rule-file tree as code. `lstrip` takes a set of characters, not a prefix. Caught by P1 on its first
|
||||
run. **NOT-A-FINDING: a bug I wrote and my own test caught before it left the working tree; it is
|
||||
listed so the next reader sees why the code now loops on `"./"` instead.**
|
||||
6. **`repo_gates.py`'s docstring listed eleven gates while thirteen ran** — for eight days, in the
|
||||
sibling repo whose rule file already warns about exactly this drift. **FILED: R-418.**
|
||||
7. **`controller_gates.py` had no way to express a reporting-only gate**, and nothing recorded that.

||||
**FILED: R-420.**

- **New storage web endpoint**: switch in `ServeStorageAPI` (controller/internal/web/storage_handlers.go); disk ops in `ServeDiskAPI` (controller/internal/web/agent_disk_handlers.go); backup in `ServeBackupAPI`; export in `ServeExportAPI`; debug in `handleDebugAPI` (debug-mode gated).
|
||||
- **A gate that must REPORT and never REFUSE (R-404, 2026-09-01)**: register it in `controller/scripts/controller_gates.py` with the fifth field `blocking=False` — its exit code then never reaches the runner's verdict and it prints as `ADVISORY`. `golden_notice.py` is the only one, and `test_golden_notice.py` asserts it stays the only one. **Use this instead of giving a notice the power to refuse a push**: the golden notice must fire at the moment a release is committed, when the golden legitimately cannot exist yet. A cross-repo gate IMPORTS the sibling's script (see `golden_notice.py` loading `felhom.eu/scripts/golden_currency_gate.py`) and never copies it — a copy recreates the drift these gates exist to detect.

Keep the dispatcher's EXACT-match switch with its `http.NotFound` default; a prefix match is what would have hidden the original defect. Handler shape: `debugTriggerDBDump` for a fire-and-forget trigger, `debugRunIntegrityCheck` for one the operator pressed to learn an ANSWER (synchronous). **Before this gate the page referenced 24 addresses and 17 were answered, and three of the seven dead ones fetched on page LOAD** — those panels were permanently blank on the page an operator opens when something is already wrong.

"""golden_notice.py — tell the repo that CREATES the golden debt, at the moment it creates it.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: python3 scripts/golden_notice.py <repo-root>
|
||||
Exit ALWAYS 0 when it can answer, 2 when it cannot. **NEVER 1. It cannot refuse a push.**
|
||||
|
||||
WHY THIS EXISTS (R-404, 2026-09-01).
|
||||
|
||||
The golden-currency check was pointed at the wrong repository. `felhom.eu` — which holds the bake
|
||||
evidence, the register and the architecture — ran it on every push, including pushes that touch only
|
||||
documents and therefore can neither create the debt nor clear it. `felhom-controller` — where a
|
||||
release actually happens — **never checked at all.** So the person who could act heard nothing and
|
||||
the person who could not act was blocked, and `--no-verify` was reached for thirteen times.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the other half of that correction: the notice belongs where the debt is born.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠ IT IS ADVISORY IN EVERY CASE, AND THAT IS NOT TIMIDITY — IT IS THE ONLY CORRECT BEHAVIOUR.
|
||||
At the moment a release is committed the golden legitimately does NOT exist yet: you cannot bake a
|
||||
golden for a version you have not pushed. Blocking here would refuse the very commit that starts the
|
||||
process. And blocking LATER is the mistake this whole change is undoing. So it prints, and the
|
||||
runner's exit code is untouched. `controller_gates.py` gained a `blocking` field to express that;
|
||||
before this, that runner could not describe a gate that reports without refusing.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠ IT NEVER GUESSES. With no `felhom.eu` sibling clone it says INCONCLUSIVE and stays silent about
|
||||
currency — an absent input is "I do not know", never "fine".
|
||||
|
||||
NO SECOND IMPLEMENTATION. It IMPORTS `felhom.eu/scripts/golden_currency_gate.py` and calls that
|
||||
gate's own `released_versions()` and `newest_baked()`, so the comparison here is the SAME
|
||||
comparison, read in the other direction. A private copy of "which version owes a golden" is a second
|
||||
thing that can be wrong, and the two would drift. This follows `instructions_gate.py`'s cross-repo
|
||||
pattern: the shared script lives in ONE repo and is invoked across the workspace, never copied.
