R-85 close-out: session REPORT + R-86/R-87 queued
R-86 (NEXT, operator ruling 2026-07-27): backup-ALIGNED restore-test scheduling — test a tier ~1 day after ITS OWN backup. R-85 schedules on a free-running interval, which cannot express 'the day after the PBS backup': any fixed offset drifts, so alignment would be luck. Shape: trigger from the tier's own last successful backup rather than a clock. Interim in force: 302400s (3.5d), which lands each tier ~weekly — the cadence half of the ruling, not the alignment half. R-87: the restic app-data offsite tier is NEVER restore-tested. R-85 covers whole-guest vzdump tiers only; the agent has no restic surface. That is arguably the tier that matters most — the only one that survives losing the box AND carries the customer's app data, since the whole-guest snapshot excludes the bind-mounted drives. Exactly the state PBS was in before R-85. REPORT.md: the full R-80 -> R-85 arc, including a section on the seven mistakes I made and the two recurring shapes behind them (inferring behaviour from an artifact instead of the code that consumes it; reading a result without its exit code). Records demo-felhom's restore-test as IN FLIGHT at close, with the manual recovery step if the deferred restart watcher does not complete. Hub gate green (17 packages, rc=0).
