gates / gates (push) Successful in 12s
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.

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 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 2c724c9283 R-379/R-380: put the customer's undo copy back when a database restore fails
gates / gates (push) Successful in 11s
R-379 and R-380 were one failure. Both ended with a half-restored database; the
only difference was whether it looked broken. Postgres emptied and crash-looped;
MariaDB applied part of the dump and reported health=healthy with a zero-row
schema-version table. Measured live on demo-hp 2026-08-22.

The undo copy was already taken and already good - proven by hand that day on
both engines. Nothing in the product could apply it. Now it does, with the same
ImportDump call, before any restart and inside the DB-only window.

The WHOLE undo set, matched on this run's stamp. writeSafetyDump returned one
path for an app with two databases; a rollback on that would restore one and
leave the other half-written.

When the rollback also fails the app is HELD STOPPED (operator ruling): a running
app on a half-written database lets the customer make the damage permanent. Every
start path refuses it - customer button, appstop Recover, boot sweep - via the
shared driveStartGate, checked ABOVE its driveless early return because these
apps have no drive. The marker is ended so nothing auto-restarts it. The row goes
red. Cleared with --clear-restore-hold, an operator CLI route.

--single-transaction is a belt on Postgres only; MariaDB DDL is not transactional
and that is why the rollback is the fix.

R-381: the engine's stderr stops reaching the customer (615 bytes on MariaDB, its
middle rows out of their own database) and starts reaching the operator log,
which never had it.
R-382: the summary log prints the volume count it already held.
Undo copies resolve to their own app, are marked IsUndo, and are capped at 3 per
app, pruned from the capture side. The reported render-as-an-app symptom did NOT
reproduce - the live page was read first and had zero occurrences.

Tests 1468 -> 1483. Eight red-proofs; ONE PASSED and is reported: the R-381
behavioural test injected below ImportDump. A guard at that layer now convicts.

admin 08eb1a6e3a R-356: the off-site restore refused every app that has no data drive
gates / gates (push) Failing after 12s
ReconstituteFromOffsite and PlaceOffsiteRestore both resolved the restore
destination with the RAW HDD_PATH and read an empty answer as "the app is not
installed". For 40 of the 53 catalogue apps that answer is correctly empty and
permanent, so both actions refused forever for a running, healthy app — and told
the customer to reinstall it "in the same place", which those apps never offer.

Separate the two questions. "Installed?" is asked of ListDeployedStacks via a new
Manager.isStackDeployed that fails CLOSED on a nil provider. "Where?" is answered
by GetAppDrivePath — the same resolver CaptureRecoveryUnit wrote the snapshot
with, so the restore aims at the place the backup came from.

The 13 drive apps are unchanged: own drive, mismatch check, ack still required.
A third refusal, with its own sentence, covers installed-but-no-resolvable-root.

Fixtures that marked an app "installed" by giving it an HDD path now state
deployment as its own fact. No assertion weakened.

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 062357f778 v0.148.0 — coherent snapshot pairs + an offsite restore that actually restores (R-43 + R-44)
Closes the two findings from DIAG-immich-restore-2026-07-19. Viktor deleted 11
immich photos to test offsite restore; both runs flashed success and the photos
stayed gone. Two independent defects.

R-43 — no offsite path could restore a database. All three buttons were
file-only: the two "visszaállítás" actions staged to a scratch folder and never
touched postgres, and place-to-live merged only MISSING files. For a DB-indexed
app the bytes returned and the app still could not see them. The dump was
carried INTO every snapshot and could never be replayed OUT of one.

New ReconstituteFromOffsite (/backup/offbox/reconstitute): safety dump → stop →
files overwritten to the snapshot version → start → the snapshot's own dump
replayed → health wait. Two invariants:
  - nothing is ever deleted (-a, no --ignore-existing, no --delete): a file
    created after the snapshot survives as an extra;
  - the undo exists before the act — the pre-restore- dump is verified ON DISK
    before anything is stopped, overwritten or replayed; if it cannot be taken
    the operation refuses with zero changes.
The replay reads the SCRATCH unit: the live unit is never overwritten, so
replaying from it would replay the current DB over itself and restore nothing.

R-44 — a manual push shipped an unrefreshed dump (up to ~24h old). That day's
predated the customer's account by four hours and probed to asset:0/user:0/
album:0 inside 52MB whose bulk was immich's shipped geodata. Every run, manual
AND nightly, now refreshes dumps + units BEFORE capturing. Order is the
mechanism: the gap can only ADD files the DB does not reference yet, never
remove one it does. Manifests carry offsite_run_id + dumps_at, so coherence is
verifiable at restore time rather than assumed; the periodic refresh carries a
prior stamp forward and never invents one.

Honesty surfaces, all warn-level and none a gate: unstamped (pre-v0.148) pairs
report their skew, ValidateDump gained an EXACT-match accounts-table sniff for
customer-empty dumps, the completion flash states an outcome instead of a
mechanism, and the missing-only button now says what it does NOT do.

11 tests; 5 red-proofs run and reverted. Two of those found real test weaknesses
rather than confirming strength — the first undo mutation was caught by a second
guard, and the first table-matching test did not discriminate between the two
matchers at all. Both tests were rewritten to the cases that separate them.

NOT in scope: R-41's catalog invariant check, nightly cadence, retention, quota
math, tier-2, and v0.147.x progress semantics beyond one added phase line.

Live acceptance (§9) has NOT run: no capability-map flip, customer-restore row
stays MISSING, R-3 stays DRAFT.

admin b5d78d1e0f v0.147.0 — feedback slice 1: pressing a button says something
The systemic complaint, twice in one evening: you press a button and nothing
happens. No progress, no ETA, no named result. Three worst offenders, fixed on
the two patterns already here (deploy 3-step panel, storage-init status poll).
No new framework — that is a ROADMAP item; three targeted cards ship tonight.

4a — a verification restore names its result. The flash said the app had been
restored "to a verification folder on the drive"; which folder, on which drive,
was invisible, so the customer could not go and look at what they had just asked
for. Full path now. The restore page gained a listing of existing verification
copies (app, size, date, path) — nothing anywhere showed these, so they piled up
and the only way to find them was SSH — each with a double-confirmed delete.

That delete is the only one this release adds, so it names a STACK, never a
path: the Manager resolves the name inside a backups/offsite-restore root it
computed itself and refuses anything landing outside. Red-proofed — neutralise
the name guard and stack:"" resolves to the offsite-restore ROOT and takes every
copy with it. Refusals are asserted as non-effects.

4b — Megosztás enable shows what it is waiting for. Enabling ran ReconcileSamba
synchronously inside the POST handler; on a golden without felhom-samba baked
that is compose pulling ~100MB, i.e. minutes of an apparently-hung form post
followed by "Beállítás mentve." whether or not anything came up. Detached +
polled now, distinguishing "képfájl letöltése" from "indítás" — decided BEFORE
the work starts, since afterwards the image is always present. Success is
probed, not inferred (compose up -d exits 0 on a crash-loop). The password form
starts the same job: with UserSet false reconcile deploys nothing, so on a fresh
box that is where the pull actually happens.

4c — "Távoli mentés most" streams real progress. restic was already reporting
bytes and percent; the runner seam used CombinedOutput() and discarded them. The
manual run now passes --json and scans stdout line-by-line: total bytes, percent,
current app. Manual only — the nightly stays silent, pinned by a test that fails
if it ever passes --json. The poll now arms unconditionally, closing a race the
manual trigger always ran: the redirect rendered before the goroutine wrote
LastStatus=running, so the poll never armed and the page sat static during the
very run just started. Red-proofed twice.

Also closes the golden/controller infra-image drift at the source: infra.Images()
derives from the existing pins and --print-infra-images exposes it, so the golden
bake can stop carrying its own copy. That copy had already drifted — felhom-samba
was never added, so the golden baked 3 of 4, which is why enabling Megosztás
pulled at runtime in the first place.
