+## hub-db-backup — the snapshot time is read the BusyBox way too (2026-10-05, CI fix)
+
+The new `script-tests` gate ran `test_hub_db_backup.py` on the CI runner (Alpine, BusyBox `date`) for the first time,
+and 9 of 15 failed: BusyBox `date -d` rejects `2026-10-05T12:30:37Z`. The push script now parses
+`YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss` with `-u`, which GNU and BusyBox both read. Red-proof with a BusyBox-only PATH: the old form → the
+same 9 failures; the fix → 15/15 (and 15/15 on GNU) — `documentation/audits/burndown-2026-10-05/ci-busybox-fix.txt`.
+The copy installed on DooPlex (`/usr/local/sbin/felhom-hub-db-backup`) is the previous revision; on DooPlex's GNU
+`date` both behave the same, so it was not reinstalled (DooPlex: no change this session).
+
 ## build + gates — no `:latest`; the gate list pinned; duplicate closed ids refused (2026-10-05, burn-down)
 
 - **R-345:** `build-hub.sh` no longer tags or pushes `felhom-hub:latest` (`--push`, `--multiarch`, local); nothing
