Found while trying to PROVE v0.256.0 on a live box: there was nothing to look
at. The box logs the Hungarian message only, the hub logs the Hungarian message
only, and the payload is inside TLS - so "did the box attach a second
sentence?" was unanswerable from either end. That is the fork in the diagnosis
when an English household reports a Hungarian mail.
[INFO] Event pushed: app_deployed (info) [+household(en)] — Alkalmazás ...
[INFO] Event pushed: app_deployed (info) [hu-only] — Alkalmazás ...
The sentence itself is not logged: it is the same sentence twice and one copy
is already on the line. Pinned in both languages.
A feature whose only failure mode is "the wrong language arrived" needs an
observable that says which branch was taken. Without one, every diagnosis is a
guess.

MinAgent: 0.131.0 (unchanged). Needs hub v0.118.0+, which shipped first and
tolerates a box that sends none of this - every box in the fleet is that box
until this release reaches it.
The hub writes a household's e-mails in their language now, but about a third
of those mails carry a sentence the BOX composed, naming a drive, an app or a
number. The hub cannot translate one. So the box sends it twice.
- message_customer on POST /api/v1/event, omitempty. A HUNGARIAN household
sends nothing extra at all, so its payload stays byte-for-byte what every box
sends today and the hub's fallback path keeps being the one production
exercises rather than a branch nobody takes.
- 19 producers render both sentences from ONE bundle key. `message` stays
Hungarian always: it is what the operator is mailed and what the hub logs.
- customer.language bootstraps a new box - stored choice, then config, then
Hungarian. The config value is NEVER written into settings.json: that would
record a choice the household never made.
The Hungarian did not move, measured twice: the wire golden from the slice-2
base commit, and the Go parity gate over all 19 new keys.
Three guards had to learn the change and one caught me: the test seam now
carries the new field; the R-329 severity register reported two dynamic sites
as no longer existing the moment they moved off PushEvent (the walk now checks
36 severity literals, up from 20); and TestConfigLanguageIsWiredInMain reads
main.go, because cmd/ is gitignored and ripgrep does not.
A mistake, named: the first pass dropped displayName from three producers,
which would have mailed customers "Alkalmazás telepítve: %!s(MISSING)". Caught
reading the diff; now pinned by a test that refuses %!/MISSING/%s/%d in either
language.

Two defects in v0.254.0's globe, both plain on a browser and neither catchable by anything
that existed — every test read the MARKUP, and the fault was in which CSS file the browser
fetched.
The shells requested /static/style.css with NO ?v=, while layout.html has carried one since
v0.166.0. A browser holding a copy from before v0.254.0 kept serving CSS with no .lang-globe
rules, so the globe came out as a bare unstyled <details> — a stray triangle and two plain
words at the edge of the window. It was FIVE shells, not the three named: both guest share
pages have the same fault for any CSS change, and their visitor is the likeliest of all to be
holding an old copy. And .Version was missing from three of those five data maps, which is
exactly how the next one would be forgotten — it is now filled at the one choke point every
shell renders through.
The globe also floated outside the card, pinned to the corner of the VIEWPORT, reading as part
of the browser rather than the page. It now sits inside the card, centred under the footer, with
the menu opening upward via the shared rule — so the dashboard and the shells cannot drift.
AND A THIRD, caught by a test that already existed: putting the version on the guest share pages
would have printed the controller build onto a page a stranger with a capability URL can open.
TestShareGuest_HeadersTilesNoAdminChrome refused it. Those two now take an opaque per-build tag
— same cache-busting, no disclosure. The fill is ONE function shared with the parity harness,
because a fixture rendered through a different data path is a picture of a page nobody serves,
which the previous release got wrong twice.
15 shell fixtures re-captured; 91 identical, every dashboard page among them.
MinAgent: 0.131.0 (unchanged). No hub release needed.

/recovery is in the AUTHENTICATED route table — its reader is the household, not a visitor. The
first draft of v0.254.0 gave it the anonymous form, which sets the felhom_lang cookie that
langFor deliberately ignores once there is a session: the button would have appeared to work
and done nothing. Found by the live probe on demo-hp reporting no globe on /recovery (it 302s
to /login without a session) and then reading the route table.
executeTemplateLang now branches on hasSession: household form with its session CSRF, or the
visitor form without. The parity harness and TestI18nDirectRenderPagesFollowLanguage carry the
same branch, so the fixture is the form the real page serves — the trap this release already
walked into once with the shells.
A per-session CSRF token cannot be a fixture value, so it is blanked on both sides of every
parity comparison, exactly as relative ages already were. What stays pinned is that the field is
THERE and WHICH form it sits in — the half that says whether the globe writes the household's
setting or the visitor's cookie.
Evidence regenerated: 3 change shapes across 106 fixtures, 5 byte-identical (both guest share
pages and the catch-all — the three that must not change).

The notes a background run SAVES — last night's backup line, the last error, the proof
result, the restore outcome — are written in the BOX's language at the moment they are
written. A household that switches sees the previous run's note in the old language until
the next run rewrites it: the operator's §16 option 1, stated rather than hidden.
EndRestoreOp no longer receives a Hungarian literal from anywhere.
The language switch is a globe. Two text links wrapped in the sidebar footer and asked the
reader to recognise "Magyar"/"English" as links; a globe is the one symbol every web user
already reads as "language", so nobody has to read Hungarian to escape Hungarian. It is
<details>/<summary> — a menu with no script, drawn inline because the icon sprite lives
only in layout.html and the visitor pages have their own shell.
Those visitor pages get the same globe, and a visitor's choice stays theirs: a display-only
felhom_lang cookie that langFor reads ONLY when there is no session. A signed-in household
can never inherit a language a previous visitor picked in the same browser. POST /lang is
CSRF-exempt for a narrow reason written at the exemption — its only achievable effect is the
language of the page the victim's own browser shows them — and safeBackPath refuses
//evil.example as well as https://, because "starts with /" alone is not the test. §16 taken:
a successful claim carries the cookie into the household's setting.
TWO PARITY EXCEPTIONS, MEASURED: 106 fixtures compared with a real diff — exactly two change
shapes (the dashboard footer, the globe in the shells) and 5 byte-identical, which are the
three pages that must not change.
I INTRODUCED A DEADLOCK AND THE SUITE CAUGHT IT BY HANGING. UpdateOffboxStatus holds the
settings write lock while running its callback; boxLang() wants the read lock; sync.RWMutex
is not reentrant. On a real box an off-site run would have hung forever HOLDING the settings
lock. Fixed by resolving the language before the callback, and guarded by a test that names
the file and line in a second instead of hanging for 25 minutes.

179 Hungarian sentences were built deep inside a package with fmt.Errorf and printed by
whoever caught them: too late to translate where they are shown, too early where they are
made. Every one now carries its key across that gap. ZERO Hungarian error literals remain.
util.MsgError does three things at once, each earned:
- Error() is the Hungarian, byte for byte, so every un-converted printer is unchanged;
- errors.Is answers for the kind AND for a wrapped cause (KindErrorf dropped the cause);
- an error ARGUMENT renders recursively, so "formázás sikertelen: %w" translates whole.
A foreign error — restic, docker, ssh, the stdlib — prints verbatim. It is not ours.
76 display sites go through errText, and TestNoErrErrorInPageOutput convicts any that do
not. memoryVerdict returns an error rather than a sentence, so the deploy's 409 and the
household's language come from one value; UpdateRefusal gained a Cause to carry it.
Plurals, one rule, stated once: a key with .one/.other takes its COUNT first. Not a
per-call-site flag — the producer somebody forgot would read "3 app is not running". The
guard caught a real key collision (alert.deadapp.one) the day the rule landed.
TWO DEFECTS FOUND IN MY OWN TOOLING, recorded rather than quietly fixed. The bulk converter
silently dropped multi-line concatenations, damaging 7 producers — and the parity gate could
not see it, because every surviving fragment WAS a real base literal while the CALL had lost
text; two behaviour tests caught it. And the counting script was case-sensitive, so it said
"0 left" while five remained.

Slice 1 translated the dashboard's markup. The sentences the program BUILDS were still
Hungarian literals in Go, so an English household clicked an English button and was
answered in Hungarian. 226 of them move into the bundle here.
A flash was the hard part: it travels inside the redirect URL and is rendered by a
DIFFERENT request, so it now carries a bundle key plus its parameters. A link minted by
an older controller carries prose and is shown verbatim — never a raw key, never dropped.
Also converted: page data and view-model text, the internal/api JSON answers, the alert
banners (Alert.MessageKey, rendered on the way out of GetAlerts), 237 country names at
display, and the four page titles built around an app name (R-566 closed).
Hungarian is byte-identical, and that is measured rather than read:
scripts/i18n_go_parity.py freezes every Go literal at the base commit (7 467) and refuses
a key whose Hungarian is not that text, byte for byte. Three decoys, each seen to convict.
Its own first version filtered the capture through an ASCII-Hungarian word list and missed
seven real literals — the R-565 class. The filter is gone.
Nothing on the wire moved, and wire goldens now hold it there: the report's health
warnings and every notify event message stay Hungarian, because the hub MAILS the
controller's sentence when it has no entry of its own. Slice 3 (R-558) owns those.

- backups_remote.html: the status stat carries data-status="{{.Offbox.LastStatus}}"; the poll reads
v.dataset.status === 'running' instead of v.textContent.indexOf('Fut'). The English page could never
see a running backup before this (slice 1 shipped the English page with that word left Hungarian).
- The running label becomes {{T "backups_remote.fut"}} — hu „Fut…" unchanged, en „Running…".
- 12 backups_remote parity fixtures re-captured. Proven (audit switch/fixture diff): each differs from
its predecessor ONLY by the data-status attribute and that one poll line; the other 94 are
byte-identical. The displayed Hungarian is unchanged.
- Tests: TestR563_PollStartsFromAttribute (hu and en), TestR563_AttributeFollowsTheStatus.
Red-proofed twice: poll back on textContent → both languages fail; word back inline → the English

Every Hungarian sentence is byte-identical; each decision now reads a signal set where the message is
made. util.KindErrorf builds the same bytes fmt.Errorf did while carrying a sentinel for errors.Is.
- Deploy status (api/router.go): deployStatusFor() by kind — stacks.ErrAlreadyDeployed (409),
ErrRequiredField / ErrPathMissing / ErrNotEnoughMemory (400). The „kötelező" / „memória" /
"does not exist" / "already deployed" text chain is gone.
- Off-site failure class (backup/offbox.go): ErrOffsiteQuota replaces the „tárhelykeretet" match. The
restic/ssh signatures stay text matches on purpose — that output is not ours and is not translated.
- Alert placement (web/alerts.go): monitor.HealthReport carries WarningKinds parallel to Warnings;
the "not on a separate drive" warning is inline by KIND. The hub report is untouched (builder.go
copies Status/Issues/Warnings only) — pinned by a wire test.
- Stale off-site note (web/handlers.go): settings LastWarningKind + backup.OffboxWarnNoAppsSelected.
The text test survives ONLY for kind == "" (a box whose last run predates 0.251.0) and is removed
when R-570 closes; slice 2 must not translate that producer before then.

deleted; every template is converted, so the offer no longer leads to a half-English page.

the version span (checked byte-for-byte, 89 of 89). The 17 standalone fixtures are unchanged.

claim, launcher_shared, launcher_share_password, catchall, debug); every key translated.
Six ASCII-only Hungarian JS fragments the extractor missed were found by eye and converted by hand
(", majd a(z)", "FIGYELEM:", "jelenlegi:", "mp", "p", " db").
- login, claim, both guest share pages and the catch-all render through executeTemplateLang (the
household language; no session CSRF, no escrow reminder). renderLogin now takes the request.
- Page titles: TitleKey for storage, network storage, the two drive wizards and sharing.
TestHandlerTitleKeysMatchHungarianTitle pins handler literal == hu.json value for every TitleKey.
- Tests: TestDirectRenderHandlersFollowLanguage (real routes, en + hu),
TestI18nDirectRenderPagesHaveNoAdminChrome (escrow reminder due; none on the guest page).
- Fixture correction: the release C cases had invented page titles; the cases now carry the handlers'
real titles (and the wizard pages their real page name), and those 12 fixtures were RE-CAPTURED from
the unconverted templates at 0555091. The diff to the old fixtures is the <title> line (and the nav
highlight on the two wizard pages) only.
- i18n gate: HU_FORMAL_CEILING 12 -> 16 — four more „ön" forms in the converted copy, unchanged by rule (R-516).
Hungarian: byte-identical (TestI18nParity against fixtures from unconverted templates).

MinAgent: 0.131.0 (unchanged). Requires hub v0.117.0 for restore_interrupted.
R-550 (operator ruling: fix). A design reversed and recorded: the restore
op-status was in memory by choice. Now restore-status.json in DataDir, written
atomically at both ends of an op. At startup a record still marked running
becomes a failed, interrupted result kept per app until that app's next
restore, shown on /backups/restore and the off-site wizard, and raised once as
restore_interrupted. Cooldowns stay in memory.
R-546. The R-543 reminder bar consults the agent's own preflight ok (every
blocking item, not a copy of pbs_storage_id), cached 60 s, probed only while
paused. /backup/escrow shows a waiting card that polls and reloads instead of
red crosses and English diagnostics. POST /api/escrow/start refuses 409 before
staging or starting - the direct path chaos night used. Unknown readiness keeps
the bar.
Red-proofs (each seen failing): restore record across restart; main() calls
both startup functions; startup helper with loading skipped; restore page card;
bar held back; waiting card; start refusal. go build/vet/test ./... green, 28

Off-site backup is ON by default and does not RUN until the household creates its
recovery code. The pause is the zero-knowledge escrow design and is untouched here;
what was missing is that nothing ASKED, while the app-backup page promised the very
copy that had never run.
- a reminder bar on every authenticated page while the off-site tier is configured
and its escrow is not complete, linking /backup/escrow. It is the R-241 bar, second
instance: same session-cookie dismissal, back next visit, gone for good when
escrowed. No second banner system. It hangs off executeTemplate, the single render
choke point, so it cannot reach only the pages someone remembered.
- the tier-1 file sentence renders by tier3State's own vocabulary instead of the
app's shape: active -> "vedi", escrow_pending -> "vedene ... szunetel" + the route,
no copy at all -> says so and names both ways out.
- both fixes red-proofed: the bar test fails on BOTH pages with the hook removed; the
sentence test quotes the exact v0.244.0 promise when the state is ignored.

R-537 — the contents label is now PER TIER. One string computed from the app's
shape was rendered on all three tier rows; a Tier-1 unit has no file-copy step, so
for the four class-A apps it was claiming „Adatok" for files it does not hold.
R-538 — a unit restore REFUSES before anything is touched when the unit cannot
return the app's drive-side files, and names the route that can. It runs before the
stack is stopped because the measured harm included the app's own wastebasket going
unreachable, which still held every byte.
R-536 — „Alkalmazás telepítve" moved from the deploy's acceptance to its completion,
with app_deploy_started and app_deploy_failed as the honest pair.
Each fix red-proofed: seen failing with its own sentence, passing when restored.

R-487: the local backup lists are keyed on the drives, not on what is
deployed — a removed app whose unit was kept is listed with the restore
that reinstalls it, the picker answers for it, and the restore opens the
unit where it sits. R-491: a removal clears the app's update hold.
R-490: /api/system/info reaches the API router and reads the default
storage path. R-489: volumes_removed is the real before/after difference,
[] when none. R-476: a Tier-2 copy is dated by its data, not its manifest.
R-456: the boot-orphan rule is pinned. Every fix red-proofed.
Operator ruling 2026-09-13. An app with classified binds walks second
drive -> off-site -> own unit (its unit holds no files); volume apps keep
2 -> 1 -> 3. RestoreHold.CopyHolds records what the chosen copy holds and
the sentence ends with it; older holds keep their tier-only sentence.
Tests on both halves; red-proof: a layout-blind order fails the bind case.
R-486 (P1): removing an app with its backups KEPT keeps its Tier-2 record,
so the second-drive restore is no longer refused over an intact mirror.
R-484: postgis/pgvector/timescaledb images are Postgres (logical dumps).
R-485: the backup card sizes the recovery unit and the mirror(s).
R-480: a held update's sentence leaves the card once the hold is lifted.
R-477: the update's off-site lookup is one snapshots call, no stats.
R-478: a copy older than this install's deploy does not count.
R-474: "delete backups" deletes the unit, the mirror(s) and the prefs.
Tests and red-proofs per row; evidence in felhom.eu
documentation/audits/v0240-2026-09-13/ and nightly-2026-09-13-adventurelog/.
Operator ruling 2026-09-13. The update precondition walks Tier 2, Tier 1
(own recovery unit, "helyi") and Tier 3 (off-site, 15 s bound; unreachable
counts as absent with a WARN) and leans on the first FRESH copy; the
backup_max_age rule applies to whichever tier is chosen. No copy anywhere:
back up first. Refused only when nothing exists and no backup can be taken.
RunAppBackupNow tolerates a Tier-2 failure (WARN) and marks the captured
unit proven current. The hold names the tier (második meghajtó / saját
meghajtó / távoli mentés) and the date; pre-v0.239.0 holds keep their text.
A successful off-site restore now lifts an update hold. The backups page
still uses Tier2UnitRestorePoint unchanged.
Scenarios G-M tested; red-proofs M, L, the tail and the off-site clear in
felhom.eu documentation/audits/rulings-r472-r475-2026-09-13/.
From hub v0.112.0 a floor above the golden is served only with a declared
MinAgent, read from this CHANGELOG's newest `## vX.Y.Z` header. New fast,
blocking gate minagent_header_gate.py: that block must contain a line
starting `**MinAgent: X.Y.Z**`; prose, a code span or a non-bold mention
does not count (decoy test; red-proof F: relaxing the match to a body
mention fails test_decoy_body_mention_is_not_the_line).
Backfill: v0.233.0, v0.234.0, v0.235.0 and v0.236.0 carried no MinAgent
line. Each now reads `**MinAgent: 0.129.0** (unchanged)`, the value of the
nearest earlier header (v0.232.0). Proof it did not move: zero commits
under controller/internal/agentapi since 2026-09-01 (last: bb50e12,
2026-08-14), and the highest featureMinAgent entry is 0.129.0.
Found live in v0.238.0 Scenario F on demo-hp: during an update's 5-minute health wait the app is not
yet held, and the periodic recovery-unit capture at 10:17:09 wrote the never-started definition
(alpine:3.20) into its PRIMARY unit, 53 s before the hold landed. The Tier-2 mirror the hold names
survived only because Tier 2 runs daily; a nightly Tier 2 inside a verify window would have mirrored
the broken definition over the copy the customer is told to restore from.
backup.Manager.isHeld — consulted by the capture sweep, the Tier-2 run and the volume dump — is now
also true while a guarded update is moving the app, via SetUpdatingCheck wired in main.go to
stacks.Manager.IsUpdating. Test with positive control + red-proof; wiring pinned.

No behaviour change on the box — the surface only.
- Frissítés follows the job: the button shows the phase label (polling GET /api/stacks/{name}
every 3 s) and the page reloads when updating goes false.
- An updating card offers no lifecycle button; a held card (failed update OR failed restore) shows
the hold sentence with a Mentések link and nothing that would start it; a failed update that held
nothing shows its sentence above the buttons. app_info shows the same three notices.
- The updating/held checks run BEFORE isOperational, which counts `restarting` as operational — how
the 2026-09-01 spike saw a green Frissítés beside a crash loop. Pinned with StateRestarting
fixtures; red-proofed by moving the checks after it (both tests fail).

Tier-2 copy) → backup-first when the proven copy is older than
update.backup_max_age (24h) → safety dump BEFORE the pin moves → pin →
pull (failure puts the pin back) → up → health (.felhom.yml check or 60 s
settle, update.health_timeout 5m). Not healthy → the app is stopped and
HELD (RestoreHold reason update_failed, same store and gate as R-379) and
the page names the backup to restore from; the pin stays. Success is only
ever update_phase=done after health (R-443). UpdateStack is deleted.
The restorable-unit predicate is EXTRACTED to backup.Tier2UnitRestorePoint
and shared with the backups page (row pinned unchanged). The copy is aged
by the last successful Tier-2 copy, not the manifest created_at — measured
on demo-hp that created_at moves only on definition changes.
Crash safety: update-journal.json before each phase; RecoverUpdates before
the boot sweep, ResumeInterruptedUpdates after the guards are wired.
Three unattended start paths ignored a hold and now honour it: the
drive-return gate (restart + boot recreate) and the nightly volume dump.
The nightly capture and Tier-2 run skip held apps so the restore point
survives. No automatic rollback — measured per-app; route back = restore.
Tests A–H across stacks/backup/api/web/cmd; six red-proofs seen to fail.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0159rPz1ZhFKsS53msqPYxtS
Removal resolves the drive from the app's own app.yaml HDD_PATH (the 07 ~L437
rule), never the global cfg.Paths.HDDPath which no box sets. A data removal
that cannot be resolved, or whose drive is absent, is refused with a typed
RemoveRefusedError -> 409 + exact Hungarian sentence, before compose down, and
the app is kept. SSD app -> hdd_paths_removed: [] never null; missing folders
stated; backup-path refusals reach the response.
15 tests, two red-proofs run (pre-fix fallback -> C fails with err=nil and the
handler 200s; "no drive refuses" -> D fails).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0159rPz1ZhFKsS53msqPYxtS
Found by the LIVE validation on demo-hp, not by review. Scenario A passed - a
non-image catalog change reached the pinned app on the real 15-minute cycle - and
that is exactly what exposed the gap: the stored applied-compose.yml is written
when the PIN is written, so the fix landed in the live compose file and not in the
store. The first time the catalog then moved a version, the freeze would have
rendered the pre-fix definition and reverted every fix delivered since - silently
undoing the half of the operator's ruling that says fixes keep flowing.
The equal-images branch now refreshes the store as it delivers. The images cannot
move in that branch by construction, so no version moves and no intent is
rewritten. RenderPlan gains StackDir so the syncer can write it.
TestFixRefreshesTheStoredDefinition asserts both halves: the fix reaches the
store, and it survives the freeze that follows.
Slice 3. R-447 was BLOCKED because R-438 established that RestartStack's use of
up -d to pick up template changes was CHOSEN and written down in its own comment.
The operator ruled Option 1, and this implements it.
The rule: while the catalog offers the same version you run, its fixes flow to
you; the moment it moves to a newer version you are frozen until you update.
NOTHING was added to any of the thirteen compose up -d call sites. Most of them
are repairs - the boot reconciler, the drive-return gate, the app-stop guard -
and a repair path that refuses to repair leaves a customer's app down, which is
worse than the problem. They are made safe by removing the reason.
app.yaml gains pinned_images: what the app is SUPPOSED to run. It is NOT
installed_images, which is an observation; letting a reading become a deployment
is the R-166 category error one field over. Four writers, each also storing the
exact definition as applied-compose.yml. UpdateStack advances the pin and
re-renders BEFORE the pull, because pull and up -d act on the file on disk, and a
pin set afterwards would pull the frozen version and report success.
The syncer renders instead of copying, through one nil-safe seam. Catalog images
equal the pin -> verbatim, so fixes and self-healing both survive; they differ ->
the WHOLE stored definition, never a substitution of refs into a newer template
(wger 2.6 needs a DB config the older template cannot supply). This is
deliberately not 'skip deployed apps', which was option B and was rejected.
AdoptPins runs once at boot after the backfill, files only, and skips loudly
rather than inventing a pin. syncer.Start() moved to after it: the initial sync
would otherwise run while every app was unpinned and overwrite a deployed app's
version once per boot.
THE BADGE HAD TO CHANGE OR SLICE 2 WOULD HAVE INVERTED SILENTLY. TemplateImages
reads the LIVE compose file, which is now the frozen one, so the comparison would
have answered Naprakesz on exactly the apps that are behind - with every test
green, because the new field has the same type. It now reads CatalogImages.
+16 tests (1729 -> 1745), 28 packages green. Three red-proofs run and reverted.
A test also caught the syncer writing an empty compose file over a live app.
The operator looked at demo-felhom the morning after v0.233.0 and found OpenGist
- up 15 hours, running exactly the catalog pin - showing no badge at all.
v0.233.0 wrote the record only from the four bring-up paths, so an app nobody
restarts carried no record indefinitely. On a quiet box that is every app, which
is the box we most want to see. The known limitation WAS the feature not working.
BackfillInstalledImages runs once at startup, beside BackfillDesiredState and
before the boot reconciler. It READS containers: starts nothing, restarts
nothing, writes no compose file. It never overwrites an existing record.
And it REFUSES to seed a partial observation, which is why this is not a
three-line loop: the badge reads a service-count mismatch as BEHIND, so seeding a
degraded app from what is visible would render 'Frissites elerheto' over an app
that is perfectly current. The bring-up paths may write a partial because they
follow a successful up -d where a gap is real news; a backfill meets any state.
Same data, two writers, two admission rules - deliberately.
Also fixes a calendar bomb of mine: the render test hardcoded catalog_since and
the string '46 napja', but the render path reads time.Now(), so it was green on
the day it was written and red the next morning. Now derived. Filed as R-457
with six other candidate files named as unchecked, not accused.
+5 tests (1724 -> 1729), 28 packages green. Red-proof of the partial guard run
and reverted; the wiring and its ORDER pinned by an AST walk.
Update arc slices 1 and 2. NEITHER CHANGES ANY BEHAVIOUR — no new endpoint, no
auto-update, the three lifecycle buttons byte-identical.
Slice 1 — app.yaml gains installed_images, keyed by compose SERVICE name, each
entry carrying ref + repo digest + first-seen timestamp. Written by
Manager.recordInstalledImages after a successful compose up from StartStack,
RestartStack, UpdateStack and runComposeDeploy. Read from the CONTAINER, never
from docker-compose.yml: the syncer overwrites a deployed app's compose on a
15-minute cycle and the two disagreed for 25 minutes in the spike's own
measurement. A failed write NEVER refuses the action - the deliberate opposite
of SetDesiredState, because this is an observation and that is an intent. Not
called from StartStackServices (the R-47 DB-only window). Its own docker seam
with a context and a 30s timeout, which neither existing exec helper has.
Slice 2 — .felhom.yml gains optional catalog_since; web.updateBadge compares the
recorded ref per service against what the current template pins and returns a
*MetaBadge through the EXISTING meta_badge partial. No new markup, no new CSS.
NO RECORD RENDERS NOTHING: absent means unknown and never means current. No
version number reaches the customer and no registry is queried.
Known limitation, filed not hidden: 23 catalog pins float, so those apps can read
Naprakesz when the image behind the tag has moved.
+17 tests (1707 -> 1724), 28 packages green. Wiring proven through a real
RestartStack plus an AST walk of the four call sites. Three companion red-proofs
run and reverted.
Every gate was DECOYED - the label constructed without the fact, the gate run, the verdict recorded.
No verdict here was reached by reading, because reading is exactly how the five prior instances hid.
SCOPE IS A FACT TOO, and it was the big one. Six gates decided what to look at with os.listdir - one
directory level. Every one was green AND CORRECT, because no template subdirectory exists today; every
one would have gone blind the moment anyone added templates/partials/, which is an ordinary act. A
single planted file carrying an emoji, a native confirm(), hand-rolled row markup, a dangling JS id
reference, a templated secret and an unregistered retrieval promise passed all six.
THE CONTROL IS WHAT MAKES THAT A MEASUREMENT: mojibake and docker-v already used os.walk, saw the
identical planted file, and convicted. So the cause was the listing, not the decoy.
COMMENTS ARE NOT CODE, AND COMMENTS ARE NOT CONTROLS. debug-routes matched `case subpath == "x"` in
raw text, so a case left in a commented-out block counted as a live handler - which is R-400's
original defect (seven dead controls on the page an operator opens when something is already wrong)
reached through the one door its own gate could not see. app-row-dedup's MUST_USE check had the same
shape: a commented-out {{template "app_list_row"}} satisfied it.
Stripping is deliberately crude in debug_route_gate, and that is correct there: its own docstring
insists on ten lines that cannot rot. A // inside a string literal truncates that line, which can
only ever HIDE a reference, never invent one - it fails in the safe direction.
NOT FIXED, and left open with its decoy rather than quietly patched: R-425, offbox-rename scans a
fixed three-entry FILES list, so banned NAS branding in a NEW offbox template passes. The scope was
correct when written and silently narrows every time the feature grows a file.
test_gate_decoys.py holds 10 decoys and declares COVERS, which felhom.eu's new decoy-coverage gate
AST-parses - a substring search for coverage would be the very shape this sweep exists to find.
No Go code. No version bump. No image. No golden owed.
Survey: felhom.eu/documentation/audits/AUDIT-gate-decoys-2026-09-01.md
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.
The system-data fallback resolved a scratch fine and removeProofScratch then refused to
delete it: its accepted-roots list is built from REGISTERED drives, and a driveless box has
none. Observed on demo-felhom: 'refusing to remove ... it is not inside a proof root', with
the copy still on disk. Every nightly proof would have left one behind, growing forever, on
exactly the boxes the fallback exists for.
My defect, introduced with the fallback in the same session. The unit tests missed it
because every one of them registers a drive; the new pair deliberately does not, and the
second asserts the guard still REFUSES a path outside every proof root, so the fix is not a
widening into uselessness.
THE WALK FOUND THREE MORE ENTRY POINTS THAN THE REPORT DID. R-411 named one missing
acquireRunning. Fixing it and then pinning the invariant with an AST walk surfaced FOUR in
total, all of which issued restic commands with no flag:
RestoreOffboxScratch - the reported one
OffboxRestorePrepareFull - the SECOND request in the customer's own two-step full-restore
flow, and the one that actually shells `restic stats`. The UI
reaches it FIRST, so flagging only the restore would have left
the collision reachable by the ordinary path.
RestoreSharesScratch - R-411's exact shape on the shares tier: unlockStale + resticStep,
a live web caller, and its sibling PlaceSharesRestore has always
taken the flag.
RestoreOffbox - no production caller today, but the same dangerous pattern.
Flagged rather than left for a future caller to inherit.
OffsiteInventoryList is REGISTERED EXEMPT with its reason: it issues only `restic snapshots
--json`, measured on demo-hp 2026-08-31 not to take a lock, and flagging it would make
browsing a page refuse during a backup for no safety gain.
THE REAL DELIVERABLE IS THE WALK, not the acquire. offbox_integrity.go:28 asserted "Every
off-site operation takes acquireRunning" since v0.227.0, nothing checked it, and it was false
for months - the ninth instance of this project's most-repeated class. The walk is an AST
pass, not strings.Contains, because a commented-out call still contains the string.
Red-proofed twice: removing the acquire fails it naming RestoreOffboxScratch; an
unregistered fake entry point fails it naming the fake.
R-407: "It NEVER writes to the repository" corrected in place, not deleted (R-360's rule).
`check` takes a lock - and so does `restic stats`, which is the fact nobody had and the one
that made R-411 possible. Both recorded where the next reader will meet them.
R-414: the proof could not run at all on a box with no registered drive. Part 2.1's
determination came out as neither "missed" nor "deliberate": R-356's own test comments say
the scratch resolver "still resolves ... only the DESTINATION moves", so it was OUT OF SCOPE,
and it was never ruled out on state-only grounds - the one comment about a systemDataPath
fallback belonged to PlaceOffsiteRestore, concerned bulk USERDATA, and R-356 overruled even
that. So 07 section 6.3's rule applies and now has a fourth consumer.
The fallback is SCOPED, because the two callers ask different questions and one predicate
answering both is the R-356 defect itself: a UNIT-ONLY restore may fall back to the system
data path (07 section 7 records as FACT that a driveless app's unit already lives there
indefinitely, and that the same-device placement is intended); a FULL restore keeps today's
refusal, because it pulls bulk userdata onto a state-only tier.
And the silence ends either way: a proof that cannot start now records ProofResultCannotRun
rather than an Err, so last_proof_result is never ABSENT - absent already means "controller
too old", and a second meaning on the same field is the StatsKnown trap one level up. It is
recorded WITHOUT advancing per-snapshot due-ness, so the app stays retryable once a drive is
registered.
R-412 leg 1: a per-app push whose unit carried no dump and no tar now says so, at WARN.
Wording only - no guard, and the capture is untouched (08 section 8.2). Leg 2 stays OPEN.
16 new tests, 1689 -> 1705. Full suite 28 packages rc=0, all 13 controller gates OK.
Red-proofs run and reverted byte-identical for A3/B1 (twice), C1 and D1.
Without it the only way to see the job work is to wait for 05:30, which makes live
validation and any future diagnosis a next-day exercise. Same function as the scheduled
job - no second code path.
ONE deliberate difference from the integrity button: due-ness is NOT bypassed. There,
forcing means "check the store again", which is always answerable. Here due-ness IS the
target selection - an app is due when its newest snapshot has not been proved - so
ignoring it would mean inventing a second way to choose an app, exactly what having one
function prevents. When nothing is due the button says so, honestly.
Every other guard intact, including the single-writer flag: a hand-run during a backup
SKIPS exactly as the scheduled one would.
POST /api/debug/backup/offsite-proof, button beside "Restic integritas" on the debug page.
debug_route_gate pairs the two, so a button with no dispatch (R-400's shape) cannot ship.
R-87 re-scoped by its own spike and built as Option C. MinAgent 0.129.0 unchanged.
THE QUESTION NOTHING ASKED. The weekly check proves the stored bytes are the bytes we
stored; it cannot tell us we stored the WRONG thing. A hollow recovery unit backs up
cleanly, checks cleanly at 100 percent depth, restores cleanly and gives the customer
nothing back - measured on demo-hp 2026-08-31, 120082104 B to 7036 B in one nightly run
recorded as a success (R-403). No tier and no cadence asked it. Now offsite-proof does,
nightly, on one app.
IT DOES NOT prove a restore puts data back into a running app. That stays drill work and
07 section 8 matrix row 4 is NOT moved.
THE ACCEPTANCE RULE HAS TWO PARTS AND THE OBVIOUS ONE IS A TRAP. "Check the unit against
its own packing list" PASSES a hollow unit, because a hollow unit declares nothing. So:
(1) everything declared is present, AND (2) the manifest declares what the app is supposed
to have. Part 2 is the whole value. RED-PROOFED: the naive rule makes the hollow-unit test
read verdict "pass".
THE EXPECTATION COMES FROM INSIDE THE UNIT, never the live box - the snapshot may predate
the app's shape, and GetDockerVolumes describes the running app. Database half is
DBServiceNames, the same discriminator RestoreFromRecoveryUnit uses. Volume half is
ParseComposeNamedVolumes as an EXISTENCE check, not a name match: tars are
<project>_<volume>.tar and ResolveDockerVolumeNames derives the project from the compose
file's parent dir, which inside a unit is the literal string "compose". Measured on all
eight real units on demo-hp the counts match exactly and the naming held every time - but
"held on eight" is not "derivable" (R-355). Half a rule that is true beats a whole rule
that is invented.
THREE OUTCOMES: pass, fail (readable and empty), cannot judge. An app that legitimately
has neither a database nor volumes PASSES. RED-PROOFED: alarming on any empty unit makes
that test read verdict "fail".
IT NEVER WRITES TO THE REPOSITORY and that is asserted on the ARGV as a non-effect:
--no-lock, no unlockStale, and m.runner() rather than resticStep so the unlock --remove-all
escalation is unreachable. RED-PROOFED: routing it the customer path's way makes the test
fail on "unlock" appearing in the argv.
IT TAKES acquireRunning ITSELF and skips rather than waits, because RestoreOffboxScratch
does not take it (R-408) while offbox_integrity.go states that invariant as universal.
DUE-NESS IS PER SNAPSHOT (R-86's model), never per clock. RED-PROOFED: recording a
timestamp fails the stored-value test AND breaks the rotation - night 2 re-picks night 1's
app.
ITS SCRATCH IS A SEPARATE ROOT (backups/offsite-proof) and that is a safety decision, not
tidiness: the job deletes its copy on every path, and sharing backups/offsite-restore/<app>
would mean a nightly background job deleting the verification copy a CUSTOMER is looking
at. It is also invisible to placement, so a proof copy can never be pushed into a live app.
SHARED RATHER THAN FORKED: offboxScratchDirIn parameterises the scratch resolver on its
ROOT builder, and unitOnlyHeadroom extracts the free-space gate, so the customer path and
the proof refuse at the same floor with the same Hungarian sentence. RestoreOffboxScratch's
behaviour is unchanged.
NEW EVENT offsite_proof_empty, severity error, operator-only - deliberately NOT
backup_integrity_failed, whose hub template says the store is DAMAGED. Here the store is
sound and the content is absent: different cause, different action. The hub half shipped
FIRST, in felhom.eu 1aeaa30 (hub v0.110.0, live and verified), because an unallowlisted
type is 400'd and vanishes.
33 new tests, all groups green; full suite 1689 tests, 28 packages, rc=0. All 13 controller
gates OK. Five red-proofs run and recorded in REPORT.md.
A golden carrying 0.231.0 is OWED - the fleet is on 0.230.0. Viktor's call (R-242).
CHANGELOG v0.230.0, leading with the measurement rather than the fix: 120 082 104 B -> 7 036 B on
the shipped v0.229.0, reproduced before anything was built.
CONTEXT records three rulings: hollowness is a MANIFEST question and never a size question; the
guard fences one shape and NOT shrinking, because the derived-copy rebuild is a design decision; and
the rehydrate happens inside the restore because a follow-up job races the 5-minute capture. Plus
the shape the live run taught: a warning that fires on everything costs the same as the comforting
lie it replaces.
README documents the refusal, what each surface says, and why the capture job is deliberately not
guarded. REPORT leads with Part 1's result, carries the six red-proofs, the per-row Scenario D table
with its seven-app control, and eight observations including R-404 filed-not-acted-on and three
mistakes of mine recorded rather than tidied away.
Live on demo-hp the confirm said 11:43 (the preserved package) and the outcome said 14:23 (the
copy's newest run) for the same restore. A customer reading both cannot tell which one they had, and
one of the two is the flattering sentence. Part 2.3's rule is 'not a plain green success ANYWHERE',
and the outcome is an anywhere.
tier2UnitSourceMsg now asks UnitRestoreDate, the same resolver the confirm uses, so the two cannot
disagree. TestR403_OutcomeNamesThePackageDateNotTheRunDate pins it, with a negative control for the
ordinary case.
UnitRestoreDate also compared the package's date against the run's and flagged 'older'. A recovery
unit is ALWAYS captured shortly before the run that mirrors it, so that comparison is true for every
healthy app. Measured on demo-hp: bookstack, kimai, opengist and privatebin all had src and dest
manifests at 12:03:49Z against a run at 12:14:24Z - perfectly healthy, and all four would have been
told their package was stale.
A warning that fires on everything is a warning nobody reads, which costs the same as the comforting
lie it was meant to replace. The second return is now UnitLegPreserved and nothing else.
TestR403_AHealthyAppIsNeverCalledStale pins it; red-proof: reinstate the comparison -> it fails.
MEASURED FIRST, then fixed. On the shipped v0.229.0, on demo-hp, an app's Tier-2 copy went from
120 082 104 B (4 database dumps + 3 named-volume tars) to 7 036 B (none of either) in ONE nightly
run, and the run recorded itself a success: 'Tier 2 copied docmost -> ... (14.9 KB, 0 leg(s), 0s)'.
Evidence: felhom.eu/documentation/audits/DRILL-r403-tier2-delete-2026-08-31/.
The mechanism was three individually-correct lines: RunTier2 guards the unit leg with os.Stat only
(does the folder exist), rsyncMirror is rsync -a --delete, and nothing between them compared source
to destination. An EMPTY unit is a folder that exists.
THE GUARD. One predicate, unitCarriesData/unitIsHollow (r403_hollow.go), asking the MANIFEST and
never the byte size - a big compose tree with no dumps is dangerous, a tiny unit for a tiny app is
fine. Fail closed on an absent or unparseable manifest. RunTier2 skips the unit leg when the source
is hollow AND the destination is not; the other legs still run, the run is not failed, and the skip
is recorded for the SURFACE (CrossDriveBackup.UnitLegSkipped + UnitPackageDate) as well as logged.
--delete STAYS and shrinking stays legal. 07 section 8 row 5's derived-copy rule is unchanged; the
fence is exactly one shape. TestR403_DataLegShrinkIsUnaffected is the guard on the guard.
THE HONESTY. A preserved package is older than the run that preserved it, so the card carries a
notice and the unit-restore confirm names the PACKAGE's date - read from the mirrored manifest's own
created_at, not from the status record - plus a clause saying why it is older.
THE CAUSE. RestoreTier2Unit now refills a hollow or absent primary unit from the mirror it just
restored from, INSIDE the call before returning. The hollow manifest was written two seconds after
a restore by the 5-minute capture job; any follow-up job races it. The capture itself is NOT guarded:
a capture describing an empty drive as empty is correct, and with the primary refilled there is no
hollow state left to describe. Never over a complete primary, never after a failed restore.
recordTier2Success and tier2UnitConfirmMsg keep their old signatures as thin callers, so no existing
test needed editing. New seam unitRehydrate, separate from tier2Mirror on purpose.
22 new Go tests. Red-proofs run and reverted: A6 (predicate -> size threshold), B1 (guard removed ->
the copy's 3 files are DELETED and the seam is called), B6 (a general never-shrink rule -> the shrink
case fails), C2 (only-when-hollow dropped -> the complete primary is overwritten).
CHANGELOG v0.229.0. CONTEXT records three rulings: the source moves and the destination does not;
two predicates and not one wider one (R-356's cost restated); and a destructive operation reached
from a non-destructive surface carries the difference in the CONFIRM, not the label. README documents
the new action and route and corrects the coverage note to the measured count. REUSE maps the four
unit-directory-relative primitives and the new manager methods, with the traps.
REPORT covers the live drill on demo-hp (docmost, class B, primary unit moved aside — 3 volumes of 3
and 1 database of 1 in 28.65 s, accented filename byte-identical verified as hex, the app reading its
own row over TCP; Scenario D with the guest app.yaml also aside, secrets recovered=2/2), the settled
count (A=7 B=45 C=1, and why the earlier 9/43/1 was wrong), the five named red-proofs, and seven
observations including R-403 and a process error of mine that changed the box and is now in memory.
An app whose Tier-2 copy holds no file legs but a full recovery-unit mirror - 45 of the 53 catalog
templates - was told to press a button on a DIFFERENT page. Since R-102 the data it is asking for is
restorable from the copy it is looking at.
New POST /backup/tier2/unit-restore and backupTier2UnitRestoreHandler: same guards, same
restoreOpBlocked() refusal (R-351b), same async shape as the file restore beside it, plus a
fail-closed pre-flight so the app is never stopped for a mirror that could not be opened. The
outcome reuses unitRestoreOutcomeMsg and adds which copy overwrote the live data.
The row offers the action where the refusal was, in a danger style, as a SEPARATE button. The two
are not merged: one adds what is missing, the other overwrites. The confirm carries that difference
in words and names the copy's date - and says so differently when that date is only an ATTEMPT
(R-101). It is built from named Go constants rather than assembled inside an HTML attribute, so a
test can assert it verbatim; fmtTimeStr now delegates to a package-level fmtRFC3339Local so the
confirm and the outcome cannot render the same date two ways.
tier2NoCoverageMsg is NARROWED to the case that remains - no legs and no openable unit - and still
names the route that works. tier2UnitNotCoveredMsg is NOT deleted: it is appended where the FILE
restore ran and is still exactly true of it.
Tests C1-C2 and D1-D6 plus four more. Red-proofs: C1 (widen CanRestore to include HasUnit -> the
unit-only cases fail), D6 (drop EndRestoreOp from the handler goroutine -> 'the restore never
published a result').
