admin 0d402f711d v0.237.0: the Update button takes a backup first, and tells the truth (update arc slice 4 — R-448, R-443, R-439)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 13s
POST /api/stacks/{name}/update is now a guarded job answering 202:
cheap refusals (hold — R-439, busy, migration, deploying, memory via the
deploy's own memoryVerdict, a fixed 2 GB disk floor, and no restorable
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.

admin 42a73e667a v0.236.0: "delete my data too" deletes the data, or says that it could not (R-442)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 13s
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).

admin 8a0e0a59ad v0.235.0: freeze the version, keep the fixes flowing (operator ruling 2026-09-06)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
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.

admin 38d28b5b62 v0.234.0: seed installed_images at startup, so the label appears on an app nobody touched
gates / gates (push) Successful in 13s
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.

admin 8025304acc v0.233.0: record what each compose service actually installed, and badge whether it is current
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
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.

admin 62c6a8a98a docs(v0.232.0): CHANGELOG, three CONTEXT rulings, README (R-411/408/407, R-414, R-412a)

admin e43b5ec07d v0.231.0 - the box proves its own off-site copy still holds something (R-87)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
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).

admin 1cfdde968f docs(v0.230.0): R-403 — CHANGELOG, CONTEXT rulings, README, REPORT
gates / gates (push) Failing after 13s
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.

admin 8aa95b5831 docs(v0.229.0): R-102 + R-103 — CHANGELOG, CONTEXT rulings, README, REUSE, REPORT
gates / gates (push) Failing after 13s
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.

admin 3c49dc8ea4 v0.228.0 — the off-site check reads the data; the debug page stops lying (R-399 + R-400)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
R-399: monitoring.integrity.read_data_subset defaults to 100%. A pack damaged
without changing its size made plain `restic check` report "no errors were found"
on demo-hp 2026-08-30; every read-data form caught it. Cost on that 134 MB store:
35.0s structure vs 39.2s at 100%. "off" (any case) is the off token; empty means
not-configured, therefore the default; a malformed value falls back to the DEFAULT,
never to structure. A completed check over 5 minutes logs a WARN naming the
duration, the depth and R-401 — operator log only, no hub event, no depth change.
The depth is now recorded with the verdict (LastIntegrityDepth; empty = NOT
RECORDED, never "structure").

R-400: 24 debug-page references, 17 dispatched, 7 dead — three of which fetched on
page LOAD, so those panels were permanently blank. backup/crossdrive implemented;
backup/infra, hub/infra-push, dr/infra-status, storage/watchdog-status and both
storage/simulate-* deleted with their panels and JavaScript.
scripts/debug_route_gate.py fails in both directions and is registered after the
seven were resolved. 18 referenced, 18 dispatched, none orphaned.

Corrections: the dead-field warning in report/types.go said the controller runs no
integrity check and the notifiers are called from nowhere — both false since
v0.227.0. controller.yaml.example gains its missing integrity: block.
integrityCheckTimeout's "ships OFF" comment rewritten.

admin 45770f2282 v0.227.1: the damage classifier matched restic's ordinary progress output
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
A patch and not a rebuilt 0.227.0: that tag was already running on demo-hp, and
re-pushing changed bytes under a live tag is the :latest hazard with extra steps.

looksLikeRepositoryDamage matched bare "pack ", "tree ", "snapshot ", "blob ". A
HEALTHY restic check prints "check all packs" and "check snapshots, trees and
blobs" -- so any check that failed for a NON-damage reason, a connection dropped
mid-run for instance, would have been classified as a corrupted repository and
told the customer their backups may be damaged. That is the false alarm that
teaches an operator to ignore the true one.

Caught by the NEGATIVE control, built from the real bytes of a real passing
check on demo-hp. The spec made the negative control mandatory and this is what
it was for: a control that has only ever seen the failing case proves nothing.

Signatures are now phrases from restic's own error wording.

Also in this commit: CONTEXT.md records the three rulings (take the flag and
skip, due-ness not a weekday, publish on OffboxReportStatus not the R-331 dead
fields) plus the measurement a future session would otherwise assume wrongly --
THE STRUCTURE CHECK DOES NOT CATCH SILENT CORRUPTION. README documents the job,
the route and the config, and corrects a line that listed four debug backup
routes when only two exist. REUSE gains three rows, including one that records
R-398 was my own mistake so nobody re-files it.

admin b8af72764d R-353/R-357/R-358/R-360: the restore tells the truth (v0.226.0)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
Four defects on the restore surface, all proven on demo-hp during the 2026-08-21
backup-truth drill, all still in shipped code. They share one acceptance idea: a
restore surface must state what it actually did, and must refuse what it cannot
do.

VERSION NOTE. The task specifying this targeted v0.224.0 against baseline
f8c9390. Both were consumed earlier the same day by R-330 (0.224.0) and R-331
(0.225.0). Drift re-confirmed against live Gitea before the first edit, operator
authorised proceeding, every symbol the spec named re-verified present at the
real baseline e5eee50.

R-353 -- a restore that gave back nothing still said it worked.
RestoreFromRecoveryUnit returned only error, so the surface printed
"<app> visszaallitva (<snapshot>)." -- equally true of a run that returned an
entire dataset and one that returned nothing. The count already existed and was
discarded one line deep: restoreDockerVolumesFrom always returned it, the
wrapper threw it away. Now (UnitRestoreResult, error), carrying replayed counts
AND what the manifest LISTED, because zero-replayed has two causes that are
opposite news. Three cases, three sentences, and EVERY one is a claim about the
BACKUP, never about the app -- this path has no SafetyDump discriminator, and
07-backup-architecture 6.3 records that an absent dump says nothing about the
app (R-361 destroyed canonical .sql files for four months).

R-357 -- the destructive restore had no free-space gate. offbox_reconstitute.go
contained ZERO references to offboxFree; all three existing gates guard
non-destructive paths. The gate now sits before mapOffsiteRestorePaths,
writeSafetyDump and StopStack, so a refusal costs nothing. Position IS the fix,
which is why the test asserts StopStack was never called. No headroom multiplier
(matches PlaceOffsiteRestore; the x1.1 elsewhere predicts a download). Fail
closed on either probe <= 0 -- otherwise `free < need` with need==0 is FALSE and
an unmeasurable scratch sails through: a gate present and inert.

R-358 -- a failed download was offered as a good one. The gate answered "the
directory exists and is non-empty", which is exactly what a part-way restic run
leaves. Now a completion marker written 0600 atomically AFTER restic returns
nil, with any stale one cleared BEFORE it starts; both orders pinned by an AST
test because resticStep is not a seam. Both handlers refuse server-side: the
wizard flags control a button, and a hidden button is not a guard.

SCENARIO F ANSWERED, and worse than the question assumed: a unit-only scratch IS
reachable through the real flow, by the most ordinary route. "Ellenorzo
visszaallitas" (mode=unit, advertised non-destructive) writes the SAME directory
-- offboxRestoreScratchDir ignores `full` and --include limits what restic
extracts, never where -- so a customer who ran the SAFE restore was then offered
the destructive one over a unit-only copy. Filed R-396; the marker closes it.

R-360 -- the delete refused only while a BACKUP ran. IsRunning() is FALSE for the
whole of a verification restore; the five sibling handlers all use
restoreOpBlocked(). Its doc comment claimed it already did this, which is why
nobody looked -- corrected in place.

Red-proofs, each printing the pre-fix behaviour, in CHANGELOG and REPORT. The
first R-357 red-proof exposed a hollow test OF MY OWN and it is recorded rather
than quietly fixed: the fixture refused earlier at the placement stat pre-pass,
so `stops == 0` passed against the pre-fix code. Fixture corrected, assertions
reordered so a removed gate reports the outage rather than "no error returned".

Green gate clean: 28 packages, rc 0. All 12 controller gates OK.

admin 92cebb8c95 R-330: stop the backup alarming about the apps it is holding down (v0.224.0)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
Measured live on demo-hp 2026-08-30 (controller 0.223.0): the nightly db-dump
and offbox-backup legs stop each stack ~13s to tar its volumes while the
deadapp-check job scans every 30s, so the scan caught whichever stack was
mid-cycle and pushed app_start_failed to the customer. 61 e-mails about apps
that were never broken.

The defect is not a missing mechanism. quiesce/suppress.go solved exactly this
in v0.179.0 and works -- but classifyRunStates read only the quiesce loop's set,
and that loop covers the WHOLE-GUEST backup. The per-app legs stop stacks
through Manager.DumpAppVolumesSafe, which registered with nothing. Two
mechanisms stop apps on purpose; only one told the alarm. Fifth instance of the
"seam built but never wired" class, and the first where the unwired half was a
consumer.

The suppression now rides AppStopGuard, which already brackets every deliberate
stop in the product (Begin before the stop, End after a successful restart) at
all three call sites, and which main.go hands as ONE object to the backup
manager and the exporter. scanDeployedAppRunStates takes the union of both sets.
All three per-app stop paths are covered, not only the reported nightly one.

It cannot latch -- End() runs only on a restart that SUCCEEDED, so unlike the
quiesce loop an open-ended hold is a real hazard here:
  1. ReleaseFailed drops the entry IMMEDIATELY on a restart that broke, wired at
     every failure path, so the app alarms on the next scan;
  2. Begin REPLACES the set (one marker file = one operation);
  3. appStopMaxHold (6h) caps a hold nothing released, logged at WARN.
Grace is 180s, deliberately quiesce's own constant and derivation. Suppression
is NOT persisted: after a crash the guard holds nothing and a down app must
alarm. ReleaseFailed keeps the durable crash marker; a test pins that.

Three companion red-proofs, each printing the pre-fix value (REPORT.md section 5):
  - drop markStopped from Begin      -> "suppressed at stop = map[]"
  - drop ReleaseFailed from the dump -> "map[bookstack:true] after a restart that FAILED"
  - pass nil instead of appStopGuard -> the AST wiring test fails
The third is load-bearing: the component was never the broken part, so a suite
that only injected it would have been green against the shipped defect.

Green gate clean: go build + go vet + go test ./... -- 28 packages, rc 0.

admin 1da2c9c6c6 docs(v0.223.0): REPORT, CONTEXT rulings, README severity contract
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
REPORT overwritten: the 1.1 sweep in full (one bad severity, nine legitimate
"warn" strings that are healthcheck statuses), the hub manifest's real location
since the task's premise was wrong, all five red-proofs with the layer each
guard sits at, the live walk in six steps with the hub's own records quoted, and
the absent-intent count (0 of 8).

Three things are reported that a tidier account would omit: red-proof 5 passed
first time because the mutation was INERT; Scenario G was silently refused twice
behind an HTTP 200; and the live Scenario A does NOT prove the customer gate,
because demo-hp has no prefs row at all.

CONTEXT records the severity vocabulary as a ruling with its mechanism, the
intent ruling with its three-way handling of unknown, both fences, and two traps
worth more than the fixes: a 200 can be a refusal, and a passing red-proof can
mean an inert mutation.

README: the event table said `app_start_failed | warn` - the defect, written
down as if correct. Now `warning`, with the vocabulary contract and who receives
what. `disk_critical` also corrected from `error` to `critical`, which is what
fillwatch has always sent.

the four red-proofs with the mutation and observed text for each, the five
IsDownState consumers walked and named, the live walk in full with the old and
new heartbeat lines quoted side by side, and the halt.

CONTEXT records the decision - a dead supervised member is asked about before a
failing healthcheck, because they are different questions and the second was
answering the first - plus the fence that IsDownState did not move, the trap
that three existing subtests pinned the defect, and R-386.

README gains the `degraded` row, which the state table never had, and a note
that the ORDER is load-bearing. Points at the new alarm-ladder architecture doc.

admin 2da259af38 docs(v0.218.0): README names the volume leg and the compose-project attribution; CONTEXT records the blocker
gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
The README's reconstitution sequence gains the volume replay it never had, and the AppBackup row
states that DiscoverDatabases now prefers the compose project label. CONTEXT records the thing an
operator most needs next: R-354's fix cannot reach the 40 apps that need it most until R-356 is
closed, because the off-site restore still refuses outright for every app that declares no data
drive. The live confirmation was therefore done on calibre-web and paperless-ngx.

admin f94543ee5c v0.217.0: prefill from the app's own backup, where-the-data-goes on deploy, bounded inventory fan-out
gates / gates (push) Successful in 10s
Completes R-351 and ships R-352's visibility half. Gates 11/11 OK, suite 28 packages ok,
go vet clean, -race clean on the changed package - all run and read BEFORE this commit.

PART 2 SCENARIO A - the deploy page prefills the address and data folder from the app's OWN
backup. backup.RecordedUnitForStack scans every readable namespace root (the app is NOT
installed in this case, so there is no own drive to ask) and reads manifest.json plus the
captured compose/app.yaml. Local file reads only: no network, no restic, no restore.
RecordedAddress.Known() requires BOTH halves on purpose - an absent SUBDOMAIN makes the live
deploy path substitute the CATALOG default (stacks/deploy.go:88-90), and offering that back as
"what your backup says" would be a fabricated fact. The prefill is labelled as coming from the
backup and stays editable: a memory, not a lock.

PART 1 VISIBILITY (R-352) - the deploy page now states where the app's data will live before
the button is pressed. Measured 2026-08-21: 13 of 53 catalogue templates declare a storage
field; the other 40 have none and their data goes to the system drive, which no screen said.
Metadata.HasDeployField answers "does this app have somewhere to PUT a recorded value?" - for
the 40-class a recorded placement is a fact to state, never a value written into a field that
does not exist. NO PLACEMENT CHANGED. NOTHING MIGRATED. The rest is a filed specification.

PART 4 - measured before theorising, on the live off-site target:
  snapshots --json 2605 ms once; stats 2697 ms PER APP, sequential, 5 app tags
  => 2605 + 5*2697 = ~16.1 s, matching the reported ten-to-fifteen seconds.
The cause is the shape already on file, so the per-app size calls now run concurrently,
BOUNDED TO 4. The bound is the safety property, not the speed one: the repository is a Hetzner
Storage Box with a session cap, and a refused size call returns SizeBytes 0 - a silent
UNDER-REPORT of the customer's data rather than a visible failure. Peak-in-flight is asserted.
OffsiteInventoryList had no test at all before this.

TEMPLATE SAFETY - every Restore* key is set UNCONDITIONALLY in the deploy handler, because a
template doing index/eq against an undefined key errors at RENDER time: green build, green vet,
green suite, 500 on the page. Four render tests, one per branch, because the existing deploy
render test only renders AutoFields and never reaches these blocks.

RED-PROOFS, mutation asserted applied then reverted to 0:
  A   three template guards dropped (count asserted 3) -> the blank form returned
  P4  inventorySizeConcurrency = 1 -> "peak in flight was 1", elapsed 282ms = sequential

DOCS: CHANGELOG v0.217.0 (MinAgent 0.129.0 unchanged), CONTEXT (the restore's own memory +
what is next), controller/README.md (Backup System), REUSE.md (4 new rows), REPORT.md
overwritten - the previous REPORT preserved to audits/REPORT-v0.216.0-2026-08-14.md first.

NOT fixed here, filed as R-353 and named the next session's first item: a restore whose unit
carries no db_dumps and no volume_dumps still reports a bare completion.

admin 8144a70a72 docs(v0.215.0): CHANGELOG, CONTEXT decisions, README feature, REUSE entries
gates / gates (push) Successful in 10s
- CHANGELOG leads with the severity fix and the live warning-vs-warn proof.
- CONTEXT records the settled decisions so they are not re-litigated: Hiba is
  the label for predicted failure (no fourth word); sustain before count and
  why; the provenance of 64/55/60; phase 2 owns the new SMART attributes
  because they are a wire change under G-1; phase 1 state is one record per
  disk, not a series.
- README documents the 14-row ladder, the persisted state, the hourly cadence
  and the five message shapes.
- REUSE pins the severity wire contract on PushEvent — the defect's real home,
  so the next typo'd severity is caught at the table rather than in production
  — and records priorFor vs cardPriorFor, which differ by one observation and
  make the chip disagree with the email if mixed up.

admin 3ed5e3e770 v0.214.0 — the recovery screen stops hedging about a code it can now check (R-311)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 13s
MinAgent: 0.129.0

What was already right: the screen did not bluntly accuse. R-222/R-226 hedged,
naming both causes and the kept package, and saying it could not tell them apart.
That was honest - and it could not tell them apart because nothing ever looked.
Agent v0.129.0 looks, so the hedge becomes an answer.

New class RecoveryCodeOpensRetained on HTTP 422, gated by
FeatureRetainedRecoveryClass (MinAgent 0.129.0). The gate is SEPARATE from the
R-224 one because the two name different agent versions and a box can sit between
them, where a 422 is a shape we did not design. ClassifyRecoveryFailure therefore
takes both flags; the compiler found every call site.

The message says the code is correct, names the supersession date, says the
earlier package is kept, and says the CURRENT backups are unaffected - the half a
customer will otherwise assume wrong. It promises NO restore: there is no
in-product route to a set-aside store (R-312) and the retained package may itself
predate the repository-password field. It routes to support, which can do it.

The claim guard grew a surface and immediately convicted something. It scanned
templates only, while every recovery message is a Go string in a handler - the
highest-stakes copy in the product, never scanned. It now scans recovery_handlers.go
too, and found a PRE-EXISTING unregistered claim on its first run.

Six handler tests asserting which SENTENCE the customer sees; red-proofs asserted
applied, including: 422 unconditional makes an agent that never looked read as
having looked, and routing 400 to the new class congratulates a mistype.

admin 27d1165962 v0.208.0 — R-254: the last two secrets leave the page source, plus a gate against a fourth
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
Site one. app_info.html rendered {{.InitialCreds.Password}} into a hidden span —
a REAL per-install credential, read live out of the running container, in the
response body of every render. The page now carries the non-secret half plus a
boolean; the value comes from POST /apps/<slug>/initial-credentials/reveal, which
RE-READS the container rather than serving a cached copy (caching it in the
handler would put it back in the body one layer in). no-store, CSRF-covered,
logged as an act. Both buttons go through it. A reveal that cannot read the value
SAYS SO rather than returning an empty string that renders as a blank password.

Site two, established before changing. The hidden input is NOT the defect and was
left alone: it fires only pre-deploy, and README §318 documents why the value must
round-trip — the customer notes the generated secrets down and submitting them
back is what makes the saved value the same one they saw. The defect was the
neighbouring READONLY input, which on an ALREADY-DEPLOYED app rendered the secret
into a page with nothing to submit. Fixed by POST /stacks/<name>/auto-field/reveal,
authorised by requiring a type:secret auto-field of that stack. Both directions
pinned.

The premise that this contradicted a repo rule does not hold: the rule is
CONTEXT.md:2070 'Password fields require explicit input — prevents accidental
empty-password deployments', about EMPTINESS. No line in the repo says 'no silent
auto-fill'.

The gate. scripts/secret_in_markup_gate.py, registered in controller_gates.py,
convicts any template expression that names a secret unless allowlisted with a
reason. Its limits are MEASURED and in its docstring: it catches a launder through
a local variable (the assignment names the secret) but is blind to a secret
arriving under a neutral page-data key — verified both ways. That is the shape of
site two, which this gate would NOT have caught. The runtime body assertion covers
all shapes but only 4 of 27 page templates; the other 23 are R-255, filed rather
than glossed. Two nets, different holes, both named.

Correction to v0.207.0's report: HTML comments do NOT ship in the response body
here — html/template strips them, text/template does not. Measured. A red-proof
planting a secret in a comment therefore correctly does not fail.

admin 8dbbc98ff2 v0.207.0 — R-249: the retrieval passphrase leaves the page body; R-252/R-253: two refusals learn to say what to do
gates / gates (push) Successful in 18s
R-249. settings_security.html rendered the passphrase into a display:none
span behind a Megjelenit button. That toggle stops a browser DRAWING the value
and nothing else — the plaintext was in the response body of every render, so a
curl of the page returned it. Found by exactly that: it landed in a session
transcript while driving the documented rebuild path.

The codebase already stated this rule for the recovery code and this page did not
follow it (escrow_handlers.go: 'reveal (claim XHR only — R is NEVER templated
server-side into HTML)'). The page now carries only HasRetrievalPassword; the
value comes from POST /settings/retrieval-password/reveal — CSRF-covered because
POST, no-store, and LOGGED as an act, which reading it off the markup never was.

The tests assert the RAW RESPONSE BODY. Every test that asked what the customer
sees passed while the bytes carried the secret; that is why this survived.

Census: the render-then-hide pattern appears twice more — app_info.html (a real
per-install app password in a hidden span) and deploy.html. Filed as R-254, NOT
fixed here.

R-252. A rebuilt box keeps its drives but loses their REGISTRATION. The restore
page now states that before the customer presses anything, says the backups and
drives are both still there, and links to Tarhely > Meghajtok. Page and resolver
ask ONE question — HasRestoreDestination() reads the same
GetSchedulableStoragePaths() the scratch resolver reads.

R-253. The list promised 'a visszaallitas elobb ujratelepiti' three lines above a
refusal that fired BECAUSE the app was not installed. The promise was the wrong
half: reconstitution writes to the app's own GetStackHDDPath, which exists only
once the CUSTOMER has chosen a drive at deploy time. Auto-reinstalling would mean
the product making that choice for them. Copy now says to install first and routes
to /stacks/<app>/deploy.

Both notices are conditional — a healthy box renders as before, pinned by a test
that fails if either becomes unconditional.

admin 0a9158d53e docs for v0.206.0: CHANGELOG, CONTEXT, REUSE, README
gates / gates (push) Successful in 19s
CHANGELOG v0.206.0 with the ruling that reversed the fix, the three changes,
the SEC 7.2 staleness decision, Q7's closed trap, and the two bugs the tests
caught rather than review.

CONTEXT carries the three rules this session established, in the form the next
session needs them:
  - a box does not create a repository key while the hub holds a sealed
    package for it;
  - the fact that answers a question must be kept where the question is asked;
  - fix the state, do not remember that it is wrong.

REUSE gains four rows, each carrying the trap rather than just the signature:
the mint guard is a CONJUNCTION and t.Enabled is load-bearing in the derived
predicate; the discriminator ships INERT unless wired in main.go's confirmer
literal; the countdown removes BOTH halves or neither and must be driven by an
injected clock; and the epoch must be synced FIRST and unconditionally or the
falling edge is lost.

README documents the three customer-visible changes and the operator levers.

No version literal was edited: the controller version is ldflags-only.

admin c6b69d888e v0.205.0 — a run that skipped an app the customer selected is not successful (R-234)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 21s
THE VERDICT. The R-203 block already said "a warning beside a success is read as a
success" and applied it to ONE of the two shapes it describes: an app missing a
declared mandatory FOLDER made the run incomplete, while an app skipped ENTIRELY
still reported ok. Both do now. Which skips count, decided by measurement:
selected+deployed with no recovery unit YES; selected but NOT deployed no (named,
with what to do — a box left amber by an app somebody removed is a status nobody
reads); disconnected/decommissioned drive no (own signal); nothing selected no.
LastSuccess and SnapshotCount still record what WAS captured.

THE FILED MECHANISM WAS NOT THE MEASURED CAUSE, and saying so is the point. §3
stated that toggling an app on leaves it without a bundle so the first run skips
it. Measured on demo-hp: the run's own pre-dump phase calls captureAllRecoveryUnits
for every DEPLOYED stack, through admitApp, before the push — a unit moved aside
was RECREATED and the run reported ok. That state does not survive a run.

What actually produced the 2026-08-06 sequence: the manual run was dropped by the
single-flight while an earlier run was still going. runOffboxBackup returned nil,
the handler had already answered "A tavoli mentes elindult", and the card then
showed the PREVIOUS run's green verdict — read as covering the app just selected.
The decision is now taken synchronously in the handler and a dropped request says
so. The nightly path still returns nil on purpose: nobody asked, and it retries.

§7.3 measured before deciding: CaptureRecoveryUnit writes a few KB of compose +
manifest, only ENUMERATES dumps rather than creating them, is idempotent and does
NOT stop the app — and already runs inside the off-site run. So there is no wait to
remove for a deployed app and NOTHING was built.

28 packages ok, 9/9 gates. Four red-proofs, each asserted to have applied. Fixture
note: the shared provider's ListDeployedStacks returned nil, so Scenario A first
passed for the wrong reason; fixed with an opt-in deployed set that defaults to nil.

admin 53e9bf0224 v0.204.0 — the restore list is keyed on the store (R-237); the size gate stops refusing in silence (R-238)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 26s
R-237: /backups/restore listed apps that are CURRENTLY DEPLOYED and CURRENTLY
TOGGLED ON for future off-site backups. A rebuilt box has neither, so a household
that had just lost everything was shown nothing to restore while the repository
held their snapshots — measured live on the R-201 re-walk. To restore an app you
had to select it, to select it you had to have installed it, and to know what to
install you had to see the backup you could not see.

The store is now the source of the list (offsite_restore_list.go), built on the
existing R-193 OffsiteInventoryList. Installed-ness became a property OF a row,
never a filter on it. Every case is answered rather than hidden: a snapshot for an
app that is not installed is offered and says it will reinstall first; an installed
app with no snapshot is shown as having nothing; an unreadable store renders as
UNKNOWN (R-225's rule, one screen over) AND keeps the action, because "we could
not look" is not "there is nothing"; no-target is its own state. The felhom-offbox
and _shares marker tags are excluded from the app list.

R-238 classified as a HARNESS ARTIFACT: mode=full without confirm=1 is step 1 of a
deliberate two-step — it starts no job by design and redirects carrying
&full_prep=<app>, which deriveWizardStep requires to reveal the commit. A driver
that did not carry it forward landed back on the intent step. The operator's
browser run completed the same restore. The wizard's precedence rules were NOT
re-keyed: a stale ?full_prep= must never resurrect a commit button mid-restore.

The residue WAS real and is fixed: neither branch of that step wrote anything to
the log, so a refusal — including by the headroom gate — left no trace on the box.
Both branches now log, and so does the concurrent-op refusal.

resolveWizardApp is removed: it was dead once the gate moved, and its test pinned
the defect's behaviour (an untoggled app refused), which would have read as policy.

28 packages ok, 9/9 gates OK. Three red-proofs, each asserted to have applied.

admin fef07c3923 v0.193.0 — the reserve guards the write that fills the disk, and its promise is true (R-181)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 9s
B2's capture floor (v0.192.0) was consulted in exactly ONE place —
captureAllRecoveryUnits, which writes a few KB. The two legs that write the BULK
into the same backups/primary/<app> tree, the DB dump and the volume dump, ran
FIRST and unguarded. Measured live on demo-hp 2026-08-03 06:40:03: opengist's
volume dump wrote 2.0 GB with no check, free fell to 1.0 GB, and the floor then
refused the cheap write it had already lost the argument to. Its refusal message
claimed "the previous unit is untouched" — measured false: that app's tar had
gone 182,272 B -> 2,147,666,432 B under a stale manifest. Sixth entry in
CLAUDE.md's table of shipped guarantees the code did not provide.

Fix: ONE admission verdict per app per run (internal/backup/admission.go), taken
before that app's FIRST write and covering all three legs — they write under one
per-app root, which is why one verdict can honestly cover them.

- Lazy, at the app's first write, NOT once at run start: app A's dump can put app
  B under the reserve, so a run-start verdict reads a disk that no longer exists.
- Remembered for the run, never re-decided between an app's own legs — that is
  the split this closes. Reset per run.
- Placed ahead of DumpAppVolumesSafe, which stops the stack as its first act, so
  a refused app is never bounced. After the volume-less check, which has no write.
- Exactly one operator alert per refused app per run.
- Leg order unchanged: volume dumps still precede the capture.

The floor is now SIZE-AWARE: it asks whether THIS app's write would cross the
reserve, not only whether the filesystem is already below it — which is how an
app was admitted at 96% and then allowed to write 2 GB. Estimate = the app's
previous .sql + .tar on disk. No history -> headroom-only, deliberately, and the
alert says so.

A container-based du per volume was MEASURED and rejected: 66 timed runs on
demo-hp guest 9201, median ~355 ms/volume (341-404) on volumes holding tens of
KB — container start-up, not the walk. Decisive on top: docker run needs the
writable layer, so it can fail under exactly the pressure the reserve handles.

The message was NOT weakened; the behaviour was moved so the wording became true.
It now also names which term bound. Every claim is checked against a sha256
fingerprint of the tree it describes, never against the log line.

Still refuses and never deletes: nothing here is generational.

11 new tests through the production functions. The DB leg cannot run without
Docker, so its gate is pinned by an AST walk of backup.go asserting admitApp
precedes DumpOne (strings.Contains is insufficient — a commented-out call still
contains the string). 4 red-proofs demonstrated failing then restored.

admin 582135f861 v0.190.0 — the boot settle window, both gates on intent, and R-171
gates / gates (push) Successful in 8s
R-171 (a regression v0.189.0 introduced, CONFIRMED on hardware before any fix
was written). Replacing isBootOrphan's container-count term with recorded intent
made a drive-gate-stopped app read as a boot orphan: the gate stops apps with
`compose down` (zero containers) and never touches desired_state, because it is
not the customer. Observed on 9201 with the drive held unmounted — the sweep
found and started it, burned both attempts, and handed it to the dead-app alarm.
The write hazard did not materialise (the unbound mountpoint is host-root-owned
and the guest is unprivileged) but that protection is accidental and untested.
New consumer-side seam bootrecon.StartGate, fail-safe (cannot determine ⇒ do not
start), wired in main.go. The rule is not new: the API's startGatedByMissingDrive
already refuses this; the sweep bypassed it.

R-157 mechanism A. The sweep looked once at T+5s, deriving candidates from a
fleet docker was still restoring — three of six hard resets. Now a settle-then-
sweep window: sample every 5s, settled after 3 identical samples, sweep ONCE at
the end; ends on settled or a 50s budget, and the log says which. The budget is
50s because settle+budget+one retry must stay under the 90s dead-app grace — a
test rejected 60s at 95s. A window that overruns emits a LATE RECOVERY warn
rather than the grace being widened to hide it.

Widening the window made two more holders reachable, so the one gate covers all
three: an absent drive, a quiesce, and an in-flight app-data operation — reusing
quiesce.SuppressedStacks() and a new read-only AppStopGuard.HeldStacks().

R-170. shouldRecreateOnBoot now reads desired_state with the identical three-way
table; absent keeps the old hasContainers behaviour exactly. Its comment argued
for the container count and was rewritten. presentStable is untouched. The two
gates' agreement is pinned from both sides against one fixture table.

admin dbcb306fcf v0.189.0 — desired state + the app-stop crash marker (R-166 / D-b)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 8s
The box stops inferring the customer's intent from a container count and reads
what they actually asked for.

Part 1 — desired state. AppConfig gains a tri-state `desired_state`
(""/running/stopped), written ONLY by the customer's own action: the API action
switch, DeployStack, UpdateOptionalConfig's redeploy branch, and the .fab
import. Intent is written BEFORE the act and a failed write REFUSES the act.
StartStack/StopStack are deliberately not writers — 14 callers, only 2 are the
customer. bootrecon.isBootOrphan now reads intent instead of len(Containers)>0,
which closes R-157 mechanism B (a power cut or interrupted deploy left an app
with zero containers, read as a deliberate stop, and stranded silently).

ABSENT MEANS UNKNOWN, NEVER "running": every pre-v0.189.0 app.yaml reads absent,
so the legacy fallback is byte-identical to the old rule. A running-only startup
backfill converges the unambiguous cases; `stopped` is never inferred.

Part 2 — backup.AppStopGuard, a persisted marker over every stop→work→start
window (volume dump, offbox reconstitute, .fab export). Its own file, never
quiesce's. Written before the stop, cleared only after a restart that succeeded,
kept when one fails. Recover() completes before the boot reconciler is launched
and returns its outcome, which main.go reports on the existing backup_failed
event once the notifier exists. A defer is not the mechanism — a SIGKILL runs
none (Campaign 8 fault 10).

Also: SaveAppConfig rebuilt AppConfig field-by-field (the R-100 shape) and would
have dropped desired_state on every save across nine call sites. Replaced with
copy-and-overlay. Measured: app.yaml does not round-trip unknown YAML keys.

No hub change, no agent coupling, no user-visible string. 27/27 packages green;
7 red-proofs observed FAIL then restored.

admin 4ed938cce4 D5: an app restore works from the drive alone (v0.188.0)
The recovery unit on the customer's drive now carries the PORTABLE secret
class, so Tier-1/Tier-2 restore no longer depends on the whole-guest tier.
A customer needs the drive and nothing else.

Part 0's rulings overturned the brief's recommendation, on evidence:
- the data_key flag is untrustworthy (4+ encryption keys the catalog itself
  labels as such are unflagged) -> R-127
- a DB password is not resettable in practice: POSTGRES_PASSWORD is ignored
  once PGDATA is non-empty, so a regenerated value leaves the app unable to
  authenticate against its own restored rows while the dump replay still
  reports success (proven on a throwaway postgres:16-alpine)

Ruling (operator): type:secret travels, type:password never does, minus the
nonPortableSecrets code register. Plaintext -- withholding the internet-
reachable class is what licenses that, and the two are coupled.

Precedence: the UNIT WINS over the guest -- the unit's secrets were captured
in the same run as the dumps beside them, so they match the data being
restored. The fail-closed data-key gate is unchanged.

Secret values are never logged; the manifest records NAMES only.

admin 2f27a363d5 R-108: network storage may not host an app's data namespace (v0.187.0)
This is D5's precondition and it is now met.

An app's namespace root IS its backup root: namespaceRoot returns a non-system
drive path as-is, so the recovery unit lands at <HDD_PATH>/backups/primary/<stack>/.
On a NAS that sits inside the share, which FileBrowser binds WHOLE — share root,
:rslave, download:true.

The bind was NOT narrowed, and establishing why inverted the fix. The share-root
:rslave bind is load-bearing (a 2026-07-22 probe proved an in-container access
through it wakes the idle automount trigger), and scoping is undefinable anyway:
apps on a share store at <share>/<app>, there is no userdata/ layer, and creating
one would write Felhom convention onto a customer's own NAS, which R-67 forbids.
So the browsing surface cannot be narrowed and the backup tree must never be
placed under it. Operator ruling: refuse the placement, keep the browse bind.
Tier 2 already refuses network targets for this reason (F-6C-1).

Nothing stranded: zero apps on network storage across all six hub customers
including Peti. R-67's browse capability is byte-identical.

FIVE surfaces, not the four the register named — settings.RefuseAsAppNamespace is
the single predicate. The deploy POST is the real boundary (it accepts any
caller-supplied HDD_PATH; DeployStack validates only os.Stat). Surface 4,
handleStorageDecommission mode=migrate, guarded only its SOURCE, so a whole
namespace could be decommissioned ONTO a NAS — that one is not in the register.

Fails closed: /mnt/felhom-drives holds both kinds, Kind exists only on a
registered path, so an unregistered path under that root refuses.

Supersedes README's "NAS backup locality — decision A" (v0.118.0).

9 tests, all non-effect (nil stackMgr, so a guard that misses panics rather than
passing). 4 red-proofs, each mutation asserted to have landed.

that lies is worse than a silent one.

R-114 — the third state. resolveBackupTargetState had two outcomes: a disk
claims the target (healthy), or nothing does (degraded, "the backup is on the
system disk"). The state "configured, and its drive is gone" had no branch, so
it fell into the second and inherited its message AND its offer. Observed live
with the target detached: degraded:true, target:"felhom-backup" plus the
system-disk copy (false -- the backup was on a drive that had vanished) plus
offer_path naming that same vanished drive as the remedy.

New BackupTargetState.TargetAbsent discriminates. Degraded keeps its meaning
("is there a problem") so the wire contract is unchanged for every consumer;
TargetAbsent answers "which problem", because the two have opposite remedies --
attach any second drive, versus reconnect THAT one. Copy routed through
degradedMessageFor so one place still decides what a customer reads. The offer
is suppressed on the branch itself, NOT left to firstOfferableDrive's
Disconnected skip: that flag is set by the agent-side gate in another repo
(R-113), and this state must be correct independently of it.

R-112 — the state finally has a consumer. The endpoint was byte-correct and
nothing in the product ever asked for it: templates fetch 18 distinct
/api/storage/* endpoints and backup-target[/assign] were the only two with zero
references. Server-rendered on /backups now, following the existing
SingleCopyWarning banner pattern -- not a 19th JS fetch, because a banner that
needs JavaScript to appear is one more thing that can silently not happen.
backupTargetView returns nil for healthy and unknown so those render nothing at
all. The offer control POSTs to the existing assign endpoint behind the standard
inline confirm, never auto-submits, and surfaces restart_required honestly
instead of adding a self-restart.

Scenario E (the seam test) drives backupsHandler over httptest and asserts the
RENDERED HTML -- handler -> view -> resolver -> template. It deliberately does
not call the resolver and assert a string, which would prove the resolver that
was never broken. Deleting the one line that sets data["BackupTarget"]
reproduces the R-112 state and fails every render assertion.

Tests 326 -> 338 (+12) in internal/web; suite green (27 packages); both template
gates pass. Three red-proofs run and reverted, files byte-identical after.

MinAgent unchanged at 0.113.0: R-114 reads BackupTarget/MountPath/GuestPath/Role,
none of which R-113 altered (it changed BoundUnderParent, which this code does
not read). demo-hp on agent 0.113.0 is not held.

The absent copy is verbatim the hub's customerMessages["backup_target_absent"]
so the banner and the email tell one story -- filed as a two-repo drift risk,
not solved.

NOT LIVE-VALIDATED. Scenario C cannot occur on a healthy box; Session C proves it.

admin fd50a73e65 C9-F1 + C9-F2: a restore that restored nothing, and a crash loop nobody saw (v0.183.0)
Both are the system reporting healthy while the customer is not, and both live in the same
status-derivation code. Neither is fixed by making the system quieter.

C9-F1 (HIGH) — Tier-2 writes recovery-unit/ on EVERY run and RestoreTier2Files has never read
it (tier2_restore.go:101-104 reads hdd/ + userdata/ only). Phase 0 enumerated all 53 catalog
templates against both demo boxes: 43 apps have NO readable subtree, so the button stopped the
app, restored 0 files, restarted it and said "Nincs hiányzó fájl — minden fájl megvan a helyén."
— at the moment the customer pressed it because files were missing, with 156 MB of BookStack's
data unread in the same copy. 9 apps have file legs but never their DB or volumes, so the same
sentence was also a clean bill of health over data never opened (immich: 1.3 GB Postgres unit).

Honesty half shipped: a pre-flight coverage check refuses UP FRONT without stopping the app and
NAMES the action that works; a run that proceeds claims only what it EXAMINED and discloses that
the database and volumes are not covered. Completeness is filed as C9-F1b — routing to the
Tier-1 unit restore puts a destructive operation behind a non-destructive button, so its confirm
copy has to carry that difference. C9-F4 filed: nothing reads the Tier-2 recovery-unit/ mirror,
so the second local copy that exists for drive loss is unreachable by any customer action.

C9-F2 (HIGH) — a crash loop was counted as working. StateRestarting is deliberately NOT added to
IsDownState (that alarms on every deploy fleet-wide, the over-correction F-A1 nearly cost us); a
sustained run becomes down after crashLoopAfter = 5m, set above the 120s deploy timeout, Mealie's
60s start_period and R-97b's 180s grace. The dashboard counter uses the same predicate, so it no
longer contradicts the alarm on the same screen. README's claim that faults "still surface as
restarting" was a wish with no test — corrected in place; it is the seventh such instance.

Six red-proofs observed, including the one that matters most: adding StateRestarting to
IsDownState fails the brief-restart test with "every deploy and update would page the operator".
go test ./... rc=0, 27 packages, run and read separately from this commit.

Claude Code de96efc0c5 v0.174.0 — R-82 Slice B: one quiesce window, two backup tiers
MinAgent UNCHANGED — degrades gracefully against ANY older agent.

The agent gained per-target tiers in v0.97.0. The controller owns quiescing,
so the multi-tier schedule is reconciled here: every due tier is collected up
front and run inside ONE quiesce window (one stop, N sequential backups, one
resume). Two cycles on the weekly night would mean two app outages for one
night's work.

Dedup rule: local-only -> one quiesce; PBS-only -> one quiesce; BOTH due ->
ONE window with both backups inside; neither -> no quiesce.

- quiesce.TieredBackend + BackupTier + ErrTiersUnsupported (optional extension)
- agentapi: BackupTiers/BackupDueFor/StartBackupFor/BackupStatusFor;
  targetQuery("") yields an EMPTY suffix so untargeted hits the pre-R-82 route
  byte-for-byte
- Loop.resolveDueTiers = the dedup rule in one place, agent order preserved
- quiesceAndPollTiers + pollTier: app stays quiesced until the LAST tier
  snapshots (resuming earlier loses app-consistency on the DR tier). Consequence
  stated in the docs: both-due-night downtime = first tier's full backup + last
  tier's snapshot, which is why tiers run fast-first.
- Manual 'Mentes most' covers EVERY tier, due-ness ignored.
- Window-gate safety valve now uses the OLDEST due tier, so a stale DR tier
  cannot be starved by a fresher local one.

Capability detection: /backup/tiers 404 = pre-R-82 agent (the documented
route-probe mechanism). Not a featureProbes row on purpose — the loop needs the
tier LIST, not a yes/no. Degrade logged exactly once per process.

Tests +11, full suite green. Red-proofs #2 and #3 observed and restored.

admin 2958946517 v0.172.0 — R-75: canonical import root, catalog-derived skeleton, import surfaces
${IMPORT_PATH} = <system namespace root>/userdata/import — ONE drop-zone per box,
on the system drive, injected at BOTH compose-env builders with NO per-drive
fallback (unresolvable leaves it unset so compose fails loudly rather than
quietly building a second, dead drop-zone).

Third BindRoot (RootImport) + Import list in BackupSpec, extended through
ValidateBackupSpec/ClassifyBinds. Load-bearing: a stale `userdata: import/<app>`
entry against the moved bind would be a WHOLE-BLOCK reject, taking the app's
mandatory hdd classification with it.

Exhaustive-root audit: resolveAbs/structuralGuard/ComputeCaptureSet/
ComputeFabBuckets now take importRoot explicitly (an import bind resolved
against hddPath would name a directory on the wrong drive); unresolvable is
refused loudly into Skipped. GetImportRoot added to both provider interfaces.

Catalog-derived skeleton: UserdataSkeleton() -> UserdataSkeletonCarry() +
BuildUserdataSkeleton(), SORTED. The carry-list makes zero-removals true by
construction (`documents` is in no catalog app but on both boxes) and is the
fresh-box floor. The sort is not tidiness: the naive map-order derivation
measured 20 distinct outputs from 20 identical runs, which with fbNeedsRecreate
is a fleet-wide FileBrowser restart loop.

One authoritative compose parser: ParseComposeUserdataMounts now delegates to
ParseComposeClassifiableBinds. Import root excluded from per-app migration.

Surfaces: FileBrowser /srv/beolvasas source; app-page "Hova tegyem a fajlokat?"
with PathEscape deep links (never QueryEscape) and class-driven copy;
data_paths: annotation with the Fork-3 asymmetry; system-owned beolvasas SMB
share refused server-side at handler AND store, button omitted in template.

Caught on the way: the sharing template's row struct was function-local, so
adding {{if .System}} would have 500'd every share row. ShareRow is now
package-level and the render test uses the handler's own type.

Tests 915 -> 949, all green. MinAgent unchanged.

admin c97975c1df v0.169.0: disk-health card + degradation notification (Lemezek állapota)
Consumes the agent v0.94.0 smart payload (MinAgent floor unchanged; feature-detect
by presence). One pure verdict fn agentapi.DiskVerdictFor shared by the dashboard
card and the 6h check. Card via a 60s /disks TTL cache (anti-smartctl-storm);
unreachable agent -> Nincs adat, page never blocks. disk-health-check (6h) emits
disk_health_degraded on a degradation only vs an in-memory baseline (first run
silent, recovery/UNKNOWN never notify, multi-attr -> one event). No global banner
(deliberate). Pairs with the hub allowlist bump.

Tests: verdict table (>=90 red-proof), notifier emit, check first-run-silent
(red-proof), degradation-once, recovery-silent, UNKNOWN-excluded, FAILING-critical,
nil-smart card, TTL cache.

admin 82c67e32e1 v0.168.0: customer-configurable backup window (Mentési időablak)
ONE setting (window start W) drives every nightly leg at fixed, never-stored
offsets: DB dump at W, tier-2 at W+60m, off-box at W+105m (wrap-safe). Precedence
settings > controller.yaml db_dump_schedule > 02:30.

- scheduler.UpdateDaily: retime a daily job at runtime (no restart) via a per-job
  buffered resched chan + a select case in runDailyJob.
- new pure package internal/backupwindow (LegTimes/GateWindow/EffectiveWindow).
- quiesce disk-tier window gate: scheduled cycles run only inside [W+2h,W+6h) with a
  safety valve (age>cadence+24h runs regardless); manual TriggerNow never gated.
  Backend.Due now also returns the backup age (from the agent's own /backup/due).
- backup page: Mentési időablak card (time input + derived leg/gate rows); POST
  /backups/window validates -> saves -> UpdateDaily x3 -> flash.

Tests: 5 groups, all red-proofed. Agent/cadence//backup/due untouched.

admin 15206314ab v0.165.0: Indítópult megosztása — guest launcher via capability URL (+ optional password, QR)
Mint a 160-bit capability URL (/s/<token>) serving a standalone read-only guest
launcher: same tiles, opens apps in new tabs, no account, no admin session.
Information only, zero control — every privilege stays behind each app's own auth.

- /s/ pre-auth pass-through (after the claim gate) + session-CSRF exemption; guest
  password POST carries its own pre-auth HMAC CSRF.
- Constant-time token match; empty stored token = disabled = byte-identical mux 404.
- Optional per-share password: separate bcrypt hash + own attempt map; signed cookie
  = HMAC(token|passwordHash) keyed with web.session_secret, so rotate/change invalidates.
- Guest labels ride the v0.164.0 ruling; never expose internal state vocabulary.
- Token redacted in logs (/s/<redacted>); never in CHANGELOG/REPORT/CONTEXT.
- Admin modal: copy-link, QR (go-qrcode), set/clear password, rotate, disable.
- Tests: Groups A-G (14) + 3 red-proofs verified red.

admin c23a0f6d2d v0.164.0: deliberately stopped apps no longer alarm (banner + email)
A UI stop (Leallitas -> compose down -> StateStopped) is the user's own
action, not a fault, and must not raise the deadapp banner OR the
app_start_failed event. Filter at the single fix-3 derivation point:
extract scanDeployedAppRunStates's pure core to classifyRunStates and
change the down predicate to IsDownState(st.State) && st.State !=
StateStopped. Suppresses StateStopped from both the banner dead-list and
the notifier Down-set at once.

Rests on two invariants (recorded at the seam, README, CONTEXT):
 I1 StopStack = compose down => zero containers => StateStopped
 I2 P2 census: all catalog services unless-stopped => faults never rest
    at stopped (they surface as exited/degraded).
IsDownState unchanged; out-of-band 'compose stop' (containers remain ->
exited) still alerts. Tests +4 (notify 3->4, main 4->7), both red-proofs
verified. No template/funcmap/notifier/counter/copy change.

admin 987e915bf2 Indítópult launcher page + universal app placeholder icon (v0.163.0)
New /launcher page: a grid of large tappable tiles, one per openable deployed
app (subdomain presence is the single openability criterion, shared with the
Megnyitás button via the extracted Server.subdomainMap helper). Colored tiles
(deterministic slug color or .felhom.yml brand_color), white glyph/monogram
fallback, target=_blank links for operational apps, greyed unclickable tiles for
stopped ones. First sidebar item; / stays the Vezérlőpult.

Universal app placeholder: new AppPlaceholderSVG served at
/static/app-placeholder.svg, now the default FallbackIcon on app_list_row so a
logo-less app shows a placeholder instead of visibility:hidden. Brand mark is
never an app placeholder.

New Metadata.BrandColor; new funcmap tileColor/initial. 10 new test functions +
4 red-proofs. No agent coupling; MinAgent unchanged.

admin cb8bf14599 v0.162.0 — R-71(a): the apply-bridge settle-gate (kills the F10 day-0 race)
The day-0 race (DIAG-f10): a fresh box boots below the operator floor, the
apply-bridge consumes the single-use offsite password, then ~35s later the
managed auto-floor update replaces the container mid-install -> the new process
finds no installed key -> consume -> 404 -> offsite dead until an operator
Re-issue. Recurs on every onboarding whose ISO floor lags the managed floor.

Ordering-only fix (consume/install/persist internals + the 404-no-oracle
contract + the Consumer UNTOUCHED; R-71(b) rejected-by-design):
- New seam offsiteapply.SettleProvider.SettleState() + SettleFunc adapter over
  the self-updater's own GetFloor()/IsUpdateRunning() (no second floor path).
- Bridge.AwaitSettle polls 10s BEFORE the 3-min Reconcile ctx: defers while an
  update runs or the box is below the known floor; GOes at/above floor on the
  first poll with zero added latency (B'). Bounds 90s floor sub-bound / 5min
  overall, both GO+WARN (hub that can't serve a floor can't serve a consume ->
  no burn risk; R-71c is the belt). ReconcileWhenSettled = gate then reconcile.
- main.go: bridge goroutine moved after the updater is built; wired only when an
  updater exists (nil Settle = reconcile immediately, old behavior).

Finding: the floor is in-memory (report-ACK ~5-10s), NOT persisted -> unknown on
any restart until the first ACK; the 90s sub-bound is sized to that.

Tests (injectable clock, fake SettleState, recorded Consumer): A-E + nil-provider
+ cancelled-gate. Four red-proofs all observed FAIL then restored: gate removed /
updateRunning branch / floor sub-bound / overall bound. Deferral paths ship
unit-proven + red-proofed, NOT live-fired -- their precondition is now
structurally prevented by the v1.25.0 build gate. Layering: gate prevents, (a)
defers, (c) heals.

Network shares bind their share ROOT :rslave into FileBrowser — no
skeleton, no userdata scoping, nothing written toward the NAS. Gate is
the stub classifier (stub ⇒ excluded from mounts AND sources — an
exposed stub swallows uploads the real mount later shadows); idle autofs
is healthy and included. Drives byte-identical. Add/remove trigger the
debounced sync. Phase-0 probe on demo-hp: GO (in-container rslave access
wakes the idle trigger). Red-proofs A + B run.

Leg A: „Hálózat" card on Beállítások → Rendszer — Helyi cím (LAN),
Hálózati név (only while Megosztás is enabled), Átjáró; live per render,
stored nowhere (S-5), „—" on unavailable.
Leg B: network section in the Debug system dump (interfaces/route/DNS/
lan_address), best-effort per item via the samba-netns door.
Leg C: NetBIOS trap named — Szerver field helper text + a purely lexical
hint on unreachable failures for single-label non-IP names.

Design note: all guest-net reads go through docker exec into the
host-networked felhom-samba container (stacks/guestnet.go, one seam) —
the controller's own netns is the docker bridge, so /proc/net/route etc.
would answer 172.x (the S-2 trap). Red-proofs: A2 gate-drop and C2
lexical-invert both failed as required.

admin 5fdd2039fd catalog: the lifecycle implementation itself (fixes the previous commit)
The previous commit landed only the new test/badge files: a 'git stash' used
to compare REUSE.md ref-check output silently dropped the staged index, so
every modification to an existing file was left behind and that commit does
not build. This adds the metadata field, the predicates, the fail-closed
deploy gate, the catalog filter, the funcmap entries, the template edits and
the docs that those tests exercise.

admin ac3790a11b gate: the boot bind gate honours a customer's Stop (R-55, v0.157.0)
shouldRecreateOnBoot keyed on Deployed+drive-present alone. Deployed stays
true across a Stop, so a drive-backed app the customer switched off was
silently restarted on every guest reboot (proven live: immich).

Requires len(Containers)>0 as well - R-52's existing-Exited vs absent
distinction. A UI Stop is compose down and removes the containers; a guest
that went down under a running app leaves them. Container STATE is still
deliberately NOT a filter: that would miss a not-yet-restarted or stuck-Exited
app, which is the bug the boot-id path exists to fix.

Evidence sampled before any recreate - recreate's own StopStack erases it.
Honoured Stops counted and logged separately from no-live-bind skips.
