Built from the verdicts recorded in each round's write-up. 8 alarms fired, 8 true, 0 missing. The one design gap (a transient full disk is never mentioned to anyone) is already filed as R-547.

# Alarm truth table — CHAOS NIGHT 2026-09-17 (draft, rounds 1-7; 8-12 appended as they close)
|
||||
# Built from the verdicts recorded in each round's write-up, not from a fresh grep.
|
||||
# Columns: round | accident | alarms that FIRED | all true? | any that SHOULD have fired and did not
|
||||
|
||||
R1 | none (control) | app_start_failed; backup_run_failures; offbox_repo_orphaned | YES (3/3) | none
|
||||
R2 | power cut mid-restore | controller_started (info) | YES (1/1) | none - 60s outage is under both thresholds (node_stale 30m, boot grace 90s)
|
||||
R3 | system disk 96% / 10m | none | n/a | none MISSING, but see note: disk_critical is defined at >=95% and never fired, because
|
||||
| | | | the fill-watch is a DAILY sweep (03:30) + one check ~90s after a controller start.
|
||||
| | | | Predicted BEFORE the round, confirmed after. Filed as R-547 (P3), not a false alarm.
|
||||
R4 | tunnel killed 10m | health_critical (error) -> health_recovered (info) | YES (2/2) | none
|
||||
R5 | docker restarted | controller_started (info) | YES (1/1) | none - 90s boot grace covers the app restarts
|
||||
R6 | none (control) | whole_guest_backup_failed (error) | YES (1/1) | none - and it named the TIER ("local tier"), not "the backup".
|
||||
| | | | No alarm for the 22 apps the backup stopped: correct, those stops are suppressed.
|
||||
R7 | internet cut 10m | none | n/a | none - node_stale threshold is 30m, the cut was 10m. Nothing false raised either.
|
||||
|
||||
## Running totals, rounds 1-7
|
||||
alarms fired: 8
|
||||
alarms TRUE: 8 (8/8 - no false alarm all night so far)
|
||||
alarms MISSING: 0
|
||||
design gaps found: 1 (R-547: a transient full disk is never mentioned to anyone)
|
||||
|
||||
## Two traps avoided, recorded so the numbers can be trusted
|
||||
R3: "none fired" was checked TWICE, independently, after the fill was released.
|
||||
R5: the first alarm snapshot was taken 6 s after the controller start. An alarm cannot be
|
||||
called missing by a measurement taken before it could possibly have fired. Re-measured.
