-Commits `eb60087` (R-297 installer) and `999b0a3` (bake evidence). CI run **299** → `success`.
+Commits `f76cbf0` (Part 0), `2389544` (spec + bake evidence), `125aec1` (R-300), `890a474` (STATUS).
-All eight `repo_gates.py` gates OK, including `golden-currency`, which this run took from RED to GREEN.

+deleted host 401s and is not persisted, and those logs are gone.
 
-**Measured on real hardware:** three goldens sit on `demo-hp` carrying controller **0.153.0** and
+## Part 1/2 — the second promise (controller v0.212.0)
-**0.210.0**, and nothing compared either to the vouched version before use.

-`webpage.yaml` is untouched — pushing to `main` publishes nothing (R-110). Publishing an unobserved

-writing rules about.
 
-## Golden 0.211.0 — baked, published, round-trip verified
+**Why it survived, which is the useful part:** the spec called that line *"Accurate; keep"*, **and the
+guard matched one INFLECTION** (`visszaállítható lehet`) that the plural does not contain. Guard
+broadened to the stem `visszaállíthat`. Spec corrected in both places.
 
-Full evidence: `documentation/tests/golden-0.211.0-2026-08-10/` (`bake.log` + `RESULT.md`).
+**Plant → convict → remove → pass:** planted the exact shipped plural → the stem guard **FAILED** and
+quoted it back; the old singular guard **does not match that sentence at all** (`False`, shown as a
+pure string fact, not a contaminated source grep); removed → 5/5 orphan-card tests pass.

-R-295 (PARTIAL — hub half open), R-296, R-297, R-298 filed. Ceiling moved R-294 → **R-298**.
+Confirmed at source: uninstall removes the snippet and **restarts** (`:1075-1082`), leaving the unit
+enabled; the byo preflight then refuses on `:53`.
 
-## NOT DONE
+**The prompt's framing needed one correction:** the installer does **not** install dnsmasq — the
+**agent** does (`lanresolver.go:107`), conditionally, and `felhom-agent` is fenced this session. So
+ownership is recorded at **preflight**, before anything is installed, which is the only moment it is a
+fact — not a package mtime. At removal: Felhom's → stop+disable; the owner's → restart only; **no
+record (every box in the field) → restart only, fail-safe, with the reason and the command logged.**
+The refusal keeps its two routes and its promise, and gains the missing line naming our own leftover.

+
+## DROPPED — named plainly
+
+- **The hub half of the naming (R-295)** — dropped first, exactly as the drop order allows. The four
+  hub surfaces were NOT enumerated at `file:line`; that enumeration is still owed.
+- **The stale-golden observation (R-297)** — dropped second. Nothing published, which is the safe state.
+- **And one that was NOT droppable: R-300's live cycle.** The code shipped; the demonstration did not.
+  Named here rather than shortened silently.
+
+## Observations, not acted on
+
+- **R-301** — the abandon countdown banner (`layout.html:143`) states the retired promise a third time
+  and un-hedged. It is probably TRUE where it renders, and it renders on every page; a rebuilt box can
+  have an active countdown while its store is orphaned. Not established: whether the two sentences name
+  the same bytes. Left alone deliberately — this session was fenced to the orphan card.
+- The orphan card now says "we cannot determine / it depends on the key / write to us" **twice** once a
+  customer clicks through — reinforcement at the decision point rather than a contradiction, but worth
+  an eye if the card is revisited.
+
+## Deliberately out of scope
+
+The CI runs that fail with no log; the twenty facts the machines report that nothing reads; the nine
+grey claims; the storage page's separate empty-list cause (R-298); and proving a *retained* key can
+actually open an old store — the one thing the retention fix has never been shown to do.
