"""plugcut.py — a REAL power cut on a bench machine, with three ways back on.
~/.venvs/plugmeter/bin/python scripts/bench/plugcut.py --plug hp --off-seconds 10 --i-mean-a-power-cut \
[--long] [--log DIR]
This is NOT plugswitch.py. `plugswitch.py off` stays „not a power-cut button" (it refuses a running machine).
This tool cuts a running machine on purpose, so it is fenced:
- only the plug `hp` (the N100's plug only with --allow-n100, the operator's „N100: B"; nothing else exists);
- only with --i-mean-a-power-cut;
- --off-seconds 1..60; up to 3600 only with --long.
Three ways the power comes back, so a dead DooPlex or a killed tool cannot leave a machine without power:
1. THE PLUG'S OWN COUNTDOWN (data point 9, countdown_1): sent in the SAME command as the relay off, then read
back. If the read-back does not show the countdown running, the relay is switched on at once.
2. A WATCHDOG PROCESS, started (detached, own session) BEFORE the off: it sleeps off-seconds + 15 s and then
switches the relay on. It survives this process being killed.
3. `finally:` in this process: the relay is switched on (and read back) whatever happened after the off.
One line per action (UTC, plug, relay, countdown) to stdout and, with --log DIR, to DIR/plugcut.log.
The key and the device id are never printed. Pinned by scripts/bench/test_plugcut.py.
