R-341 check taken, and the golden-currency bypass declared
gates / gates (push) Failing after 16s

Two gates blocked the R-331 hub push. One is FIXED, one is BYPASSED, and the
difference is stated rather than blurred.

FIXED -- due-checks (R-341, 5 days overdue). The +7d measurement was TAKEN on
ep0 rather than deferred again. Precondition passed: proxy still MainPID 551655,
ps -o lstart= still 2026-08-18 09:51:04, NRestarts=0, so this is the same proxy
generation as t0 (anchor is ps, not ActiveEnterTimestamp, which reads 03:54:54Z
here -- R-346's trap).

Result: fd = 17. Not 17 more -- seventeen TOTAL, exactly the documented
baseline, against 405 at the first check. Socket histogram: one LISTEN, ESTAB 0,
CLOSE-WAIT 0.

The verdict is UNANSWERABLE, not "the upgrade fixed it". R-341 asks whether the
PBS 4.2.5-1 upgrade changed the fd slope; inside this interval we removed the
leak OURSELVES (R-344, agent 0.130.0, now live on both boxes). A slope of ~0
measures our fix, not the upgrade, and reading it the other way would credit a
changelog that was read in advance and found to contain no such mechanism. The
perturbation pre-registered for this window was Phase C at ~3%; the actual
perturbation was the removal of the entire phenomenon. Row closed as moot.

What it DOES establish is worth more than the original question: twelve days
after the R-344 fix, same proxy generation, no restart to hide behind, ep0 sits
at baseline with zero established connections. R-336's ~323-day runway concern
retires with it.

BYPASSED -- golden-currency. Controller v0.224.0 and v0.225.0 are released and
the newest golden bake carries 0.223.0, so a machine installed right now gets
neither. The gate is RIGHT. This push therefore uses `git push --no-verify`,
declared here, in hub/CHANGELOG.md, in REPORT.md and on R-242.

A BYPASS, not a waiver: the gate offers a waiver only for a release that
DELIBERATELY needs no golden, and these need one. The operator was asked and
ruled bypass-now-bake-later, on the ground that neither fix bites a day-0 box --
R-330 is a nightly false alarm about apps a new box has not installed yet, R-331
is a hub display over backups a new box has not taken yet -- and both arrive by
self-update. That ground is recorded because it is what to re-check: it does NOT
extend to a release changing first-boot behaviour.

OWED: bake a golden carrying 0.225.0 and vouch it (RUNBOOK-manual-build.md 4.1,
three-field change, MinAgent 0.129.0). Fourth bypass of this gate, and the gap
is now two releases wide rather than one.
