admin	65790672d5	doorstep walk on ISO 1.27.x: 1 intervention (R-505), STOP before publish ... ISO 1.27.1 gated PASS and proven live: first-boot console Felhom-only, pvebanner masked across a proven reboot. Hub v0.113.0 hand-over copy live (R-497 closed). Full first hour walked again on customer tester-1 (three disks + one disk): deploy, use, backup, removal, byte-identical restore, power cut, typo all PASS. The tunnel gives a fresh box no routes: 12/12 503 from DooPlex (R-505); the record has no e-mail (R-508). Rows R-507, R-508 filed; R-496/R-495 fixed/answered awaiting publish; day-0 A.1 no longer claims the controller creates hostnames (R-506). NOT PUBLISHED.

admin	6fd8c87516	doorstep: console is Felhom's (ISO 1.27.0 source), passphrase hand-over copy (hub 0.113.0 source), rulings ... Phase 0: the public ISO never auto-installs by construction (no answer.toml, G1); the operator re-affirmed the interactive installer 2026-09-14. - felhom-bootstrap.sh: mask pvebanner.service, write a Hungarian /etc/issue (no :8006 admin URL); pairing banner names the Tulajdonosi jelmondat and paints through the CONSOLE_DEV seam (R-496). Harness: 8 checks, red first; fake hub now sends a pairing code (the banner was never tested, R-502). - hub: created flash + Credentials block tell the operator to hand the phrase over; the self-bind mail names the operator (R-497). Tests red first. - iso-release-gate G14-G16; domain ruling in 01-topology + CONTEXT; R-494 narrowed to P3; R-502..R-504 filed; volunteer guide and day-0 A.2 aligned.

admin	8c7f882d1c	drill 0242: teardown complete in three layers; R-501 filed ... Machine: VM 330 destroyed with its disks. Host: ISO and scratch removed, ~8.5 GiB returned on nvme-scratch. Hub: customer drill0242 DELETED via the cascade (journal #17), pages 404; its ep0 WireGuard peer dropped at the next full-list push. Evidence pulled before the destroy. R-501: the documented CI-check recipe reads only the last jobs page, which is not in id order.

admin	38848ffbeb	drill: a stranger's first hour on 0.242.0 — 1 intervention, not ready for a volunteer ... Golden 0.242.0 baked, round-trip verified and vouched (cadence rule, R-468). Fresh box from the public ISO on demo-hp: landed on the vouched set, two apps deployed and used, backup, remove, byte-identical restore, power cut and code typo all PASS. Stopped for a volunteer by R-493 (no instructions) and R-494 (the setup mail's dashboard link has no DNS; intervention I1). R-493..R-500 filed. Capability map: first-hour row added (PARTIAL), journey row scoped. Stopgap Hungarian volunteer guide written. Hub teardown layer pending.

admin	f181efd6a7	hub v0.112.0: a floor carries a declared MinAgent past the golden (R-472) ... Operator ruling 2026-09-13. Above the vouched golden, a floor saved with a declared MinAgent is served under the same agent comparison; an undeclared one is still held beyond the golden. The declaration is stored beside each floor as FLOOR=MINAGENT so it never carries to a later floor. Both floor forms require min_agent above the golden (flash floor_needs_min_agent, nothing stored). The Hosts page and the API log name the source. Vouch path and R-120 gate untouched. Scenarios A-E tested; red-proofs A and C in documentation/audits/rulings-r472-r475-2026-09-13/.	2026-09-13 16:47:11 +02:00

Controller v0.237.0-v0.238.1: the Update button is a guarded job — refusals, backup-first when the proven Tier-2 copy is stale, safety dump, pin, pull (pin back on failure), health, HOLD on failure. Proven live on demo-hp: A, B, E, F, H and the restore walk (audits/slice4-2026-09-13/). Correction to this morning's pages: between golden bakes the hub HOLDS a floor above the vouched golden, so a release does not reach the fleet by floor (R-472, operator decision). Corrected in the runbook, STATUS, CONTEXT, R-468 and the gate docstring. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0159rPz1ZhFKsS53msqPYxtS	2026-09-13 12:30:17 +02:00

admin	ae59c31a84	R-459 CLOSED (MariaDB converts itself, proven by harness + live), golden 0.236.0 (R-467), the golden waiver (R-468) ... Operator rulings 2026-09-13, both shipped the same day: - MariaDB finishes its own conversion (catalog eec1228/bd32830/3525e35). Harness E3/E3b `proven` with engine_state_after "already upgraded to 12.3.3-MariaDB [exit=1]", the skip line gone, C3 still `failed`; landed on demo-hp through the real 15-min cycle, nothing recreated, one deliberate restart logged "MariaDB upgrade not required" with the app serving. Evidence: documentation/audits/r459-close-2026-09-13/. The engine-major rule + gate keep every engine inside its major until Slice 4 (R-448) — removal tracked as R-469. - Goldens on a cadence, not per release. golden_currency_gate.py reads a dated waiver (documentation/tests/golden-waiver.yml, <= 14 days, row-bound): valid + BEHIND -> loud advisory, exit 0; expired -> red again naming the date; UNRECORDED (R-385) never covered; malformed -> 2, never 0. Tests cases 5-15 incl. the R-421 decoy; red-proof old-vs-new on the real behind tree. R-242's vouch half stays open. Cadence in RUNBOOK-manual-build.md §4.2 + the checklist. - Golden 0.236.0 baked, round-tripped, vouched, floor raised 0.232.0 -> 0.236.0 (documentation/tests/golden-0.236.0-2026-09-13/) — the last per-release bake; the waiver was issued AFTER it landed. No --no-verify anywhere in this session. Rows: R-459 CLOSED, R-467 CLOSED, R-242 narrowed; R-468/R-469/R-470/R-471 opened. 09 §3 gains decisions 5 and 6; STATUS items 11 and 12 closed; CONTEXT records the cadence ruling.

admin	d6837d98ee	SPIKE R-459: the skipped MariaDB conversion is stable, and the trade it implied does not exist ... Outcome A, qualified. Not B and not C. It does not degrade: 5 of 5 restarts of 12.3 on an 11.6 datadir, readback passed every time, mariadb_upgrade_info unchanged, the entrypoint line never escalated past [Note]. It also never heals - the engine answers 'Major version upgrade detected from 11.6.2-MariaDB to 12.3.3-MariaDB. Check required!' on every start and will forever. The trade R-459 was expected to produce is not real. Converting properly SUCCEEDS across the multi-major jump, takes 7 seconds, backs up the system database unasked - and putting 11.6 back afterwards STILL starts and serves the data. So the operator is being handed a cheap correction, not a choice between a correct engine and a reversible one. The exit-code polarity was measured rather than read: 0 means the upgrade IS needed, 1 means it is not. Assuming either the flag name or the polarity would have inverted the headline. And run without credentials the same command returns a confident-looking FATAL ERROR that is an auth failure. R-464: after converting and going back, the entrypoint prints 'MariaDB upgrade not required' on a state the same engine calls an unsupported downgrade. The obvious cheap instrument for R-459 would have been to grep for that line, and it would have reported fine for the broken case. R-463: the PostgreSQL analogue, deliberately NOT measured here. 11 templates, 8 on postgres:16-alpine, register grep for pg_upgrade returns zero. The two engines fail in OPPOSITE directions - MariaDB skips quietly, Postgres refuses to start - so that one cannot hide; it presents as eight apps down at once. No template changed. Teardown all three layers, hub checked rather than asserted, local-lvm 30.53 percent before and after.	2026-09-06 17:42:19 +02:00
admin	a1a6c73fe1	SPIKE: an upgrade test that runs again — and a real defect in our own bookstack template ... R-449. Until today one app upgrade out of 53 had ever been measured, by hand, and the whole update arc was designed against that single data point. C3 first: the negative control, whose TO image exits immediately, came back failed. That is what makes the greens mean anything, and it cost 556s because a negative is only honest if it waits out the full settle window. Seven edges, three apps. All five real catalog upgrades kept the customer's data. The finding that changes an assumption the arc was carrying: whether an upgrade can be UNDONE is a property of the individual APP, not of upgrades. Docmost refuses - 'corrupted migrations: previously executed migration 20260213T085259-notifications is missing' - and privatebin does not. That reproduces the Nextcloud result on a second app by a DIFFERENT mechanism, so the struck word 'rollback' now rests on two measurements instead of one. The finding nobody was looking for, R-459: our own bookstack template moves MariaDB across a major and sets no MARIADB_* env at all, so the engine logs that the datadir upgrade it requires is being skipped, and serves anyway. The cause is assigned rather than guessed - the app half alone produces no upgrade line, both edges that move the engine produce it - which is exactly what decomposing E3 into E3a and E3b was for. It also explains why E3's abort looked like it worked: the datadir was never converted. Whether that ever breaks is NOT established, and the row says so. Also opened: R-460 (bookstack's file half cannot be seeded headlessly), R-461 (target-selection.md names a venue that does not exist and fences a VM that is gone), R-462 (the widening, costed with this run's real numbers - and the cost is dominated by fixtures, which do not amortise). Teardown all three layers, hub checked rather than asserted. local-lvm read 30.50 percent before and after. The capability map was deliberately NOT edited: this measured apps, not the product.	2026-09-06 11:48:57 +02:00
admin	417df06f35	slice 3 docs: the ruling, the shipped mechanism, and four rows closed ... 09-update-architecture.md gains the fourth dated operator ruling (2026-09-06, Option 1) and its section 5 is rewritten from a proposed shape into the shipped one: the pin, the stored definition, the render table, the four writers, the startup ordering, and the trap this slice set for slice 2 - the live compose file is now the frozen one, so a badge comparing against it would answer Naprakesz on exactly the apps that are behind. 02-controller-module-map.md said 'copy compose + .felhom.yml'. That stopped being true today, so it is corrected, and the two sections describing the old seam now carry a banner saying they describe v0.234.0 and below - kept because every box under v0.235.0 still behaves that way and because they are the measured account of why it changed. R-447, R-441, R-438 and R-455 closed and compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS; R-458 opened for the .felhom.yml asymmetry, with what would settle it by measurement. Live evidence: two real catalog pushes travelling the real 15-minute cycle, both reverted, the tree byte-identical afterwards. The restart that used to take 18.3 seconds and pull a new image now takes 0.1 seconds and pulls nothing.	2026-09-06 10:37:33 +02:00
admin	bc47dd4ef9	v0.234.0: a known limitation written on 2026-09-02 was a defect by the next morning ... The operator looked at demo-felhom and found OpenGist - up 15 hours, running exactly the catalog pin, showing no badge at all. 09-update-architecture.md had recorded that as an accepted limitation the day before: 'the fleet view fills in gradually'. On a quiet box gradually means never, and a feature that fills itself in on an event nobody triggers is, on the quiet installations, not shipped. That limitation row is now struck with the reason kept. The living document gains slice 1b, the two admission rules of the backfill (it never overwrites, and it refuses to seed a partial observation because the badge reads a service-count mismatch as BEHIND), and the note that the same field having two writers with two different admission rules is deliberate. Live evidence added: all nine apps already had records by the time 0.234.0 was ready, so the natural fleet state could no longer exercise the new code - said plainly rather than papered over. The pre-0.233.0 shape was recreated on demo-hp by stripping two records; the backfill re-seeded exactly those two with digests matching independently-read ground truth and left the other seven alone. The refusal half was deliberately NOT staged live: it needs a degraded app, and manufacturing one risks the false-customer-email class that already cost 61 mails (R-330). Unit-tested with a red-proof, and recorded as unproven-live. R-457: a test that hardcodes a date and asserts an age derived from it is green only on the day it is written. Mine was, and it went red overnight. Six other files carry both a date literal and time.Now() - named as candidates, not accused.	2026-09-03 12:01:44 +02:00
admin	7941b0c159	R-455: the mirror base images are MEASURED byte-identical to Docker Hub ... The row carried 'KNOWN, not MEASURED' because the throttle was still in force. It cleared 40 minutes later and the check was run: docker pull from Hub answered 'Image is up to date' for both bases - Hub's own manifest resolved to the images already local, the ones v0.233.0 was built from - and the manifest bodies are identical between registries. This matters for the row's own decision: the mirror being a sound source is what makes 'sanction the mirror in build.sh' a real option next to 'get a Docker Hub login', rather than a hope.	2026-09-02 21:03:40 +02:00
admin	0705942783	the badge IS proven live, and the 'stale password' finding was mine, not the box's ... I reported that the vaulted dashboard password no longer worked on either demo box, and quoted the controller's own 'Failed login' as the discriminator. The password was fine. ~/.config/credentials quotes its values with SINGLE quotes and my sed stripped only double quotes, so the quote characters went out as part of the password. The operator corrected it in one line; one retry returned 302. The instrumentation lesson is the finding and R-453 now carries it: 'Failed login' separates wrong-password from wrong-Host-header, and that is ALL it separates. It cannot tell a wrong password from wrong password HANDLING, and I read it as if it could. This is the second time this file's quoting has produced a confident wrong verdict, so the fix is one shared extraction helper, not a resolution to be careful. With the session recovered, the badge is validated on live pages: Naprakesz twice on /stacks and on /apps/bookstack; NO badge at all on /apps/docmost (a deployed app with no record - absent is UNKNOWN, not current); and 'Frissites elerheto - 52 napja' on both surfaces, the age being real arithmetic on bentopdf's catalog_since. The behind state was staged by editing one compose tag, with no restart and no up -d, and reverted byte-identically (sha256 equal, diff empty, container never touched). Capability-map row upgraded to PROVEN-LIVE with the one unexercised badge state named. STATUS item 9 now needs nothing from the operator.	2026-09-02 20:47:53 +02:00
admin	e86cf42e0b	three more register rows: the observations gate refused a report that filed none ... R-454 five gofmt-unclean internal/web test files at the BASELINE, with no gate that would ever notice; R-455 DooPlex has no Docker Hub login and the unauthenticated ceiling now blocks a BUILD, not just the catalog's resolvability gate; R-456 a partly-dead stack is not a boot orphan and that rule exists in no document, so this session re-derived it by watching a repair not happen. All three were observations in felhom-controller/REPORT.md, which is overwritten every session. The controller's observations gate refused the push until each one either named a row or declared itself not a finding - which is exactly its job.	2026-09-02 20:36:52 +02:00
admin	6035dfcc3a	09-update-architecture.md: the update path finally has a document, and it is a living one ... R-438's document half. It records how an update works AS MEASURED, quotes the RestartStack comment that proves the restart half was CHOSEN (a design decision is not a defect), carries the three operator rulings of 2026-09-02, strikes the word 'rollback' (once a migration has run the old image will not start), states the target shape, and lists the seven slices with a status each. R-438 and R-440 amended and BOTH STAY OPEN: the mechanism is documented, not changed. Nothing closed, so CLOSED-ITEMS.md is untouched. Eight new register rows, 194 -> 202: R-446 (Naprakesz can be false for the 23 floating pins), R-447..R-451 (one per remaining slice, with a rank and an owner), R-452 (no gate enforces catalog_since - the runner fetches at --depth 1), and R-453 (the vaulted dashboard password is stale on BOTH demo boxes, which is what stopped the badge render from being validated live). Live evidence for slices 1 and 2 in documentation/tests/. The record is PROVEN LIVE through the boot reconciler on demo-hp - one entry per compose service, digests matching ground truth read independently. The badge RENDER is not, and the five attempts are listed rather than summarised.	2026-09-02 20:32:30 +02:00
admin	56c7e373a3	SPIKE: what an app update actually does, and which other paths do it too ... THE GATE IS ANSWERED: YES. compose up -d upgrades an app whose compose file has already moved, and the Restart button does it — 18.3s with a network pull when the target image is absent, 0.5s when present, against a negative control that did not even recreate the container. The boot reconciler does the same thing unattended when an app fails to come back (bootrecon.go:269 -> StartStack). AND ONE FEAR IS SMALLER THAN THE BRIEF CLAIMED: a plain power cut upgrades nothing. Docker restores the old containers and the reconciler logs 'no boot-orphaned apps (nothing to start)'. AND ONE IS BIGGER: app data CANNOT be rolled back. Once a migration has run, the old image refuses to start — Nextcloud: 'the version of the data (32.0.9.2) is higher than the docker image version (31.0.14.1) and downgrading is not supported'. 'Rollback' is the wrong word for this arc and is struck. Phases 0-6 all run, on demo-hp (Tier 0, disposable). Phase 6 run on operator confirmation. Peti's box was never contacted. No production code written in any repo: felhom-controller is at 960d29b0612c before and after, tree clean, and build/vet/test are green — run at the end to prove exactly that. Register: R-438/439/440 updated with live evidence; R-441..R-445 opened (restore-vs-sync conflict; remove_hdd_data inert with no paths.hdd_path, 128 MB left behind; update reports success over a broken app; no fleet fstrim; hub telemetry outlives the app). Capability map gains three measured rows. The mechanism is written down in 02-controller-module-map.md as MEASURED BEHAVIOUR, not [DESIGN] — the operator has not ruled. STATUS.md carries the one decision. Five claims in the brief are named as wrong, including two of my own method.	2026-09-01 21:35:32 +02:00
admin	ac079b8c43	backlog: file R-438/R-439/R-440 — the app-update spike's three register rows ... R-438 (P1-HIGH, Viktor rules): the catalog syncer rewrites a DEPLOYED app's docker-compose.yml on a 15-minute cycle with no deployed check, and no architecture document records the consequence. Mechanism behind R-40. R-439 (P3-LOW, CC): Router.actionStack checks the R-379/R-380 restore hold for start and restart only; update falls through to compose up -d.

admin	1d59353df4	provider questions: arm them against the Storage Box / Storage Share conflation (operator-found) ... The operator noticed the "can I restore specific files from within a backup?" FAQ lives under storage-share, not storage-box, and asked which product it covers. It is Storage SHARE only — a managed Nextcloud — and it never mentions Storage Box. Its own text gives it away: Nextcloud's data cache, a database dump, the konsoleH web interface. The two products document OPPOSITE answers: Storage BOX (ours) "You can download individual files or entire directories as usual" Storage SHARE (not) "we only support restores for the full backup ZFS snapshot" That matters because a web search for the obvious phrasing surfaces the SHARE page and it reads like a definitive NO — so a support agent could answer Question 1 from the wrong page and push R-95 to the top of the register for no reason. Question 1 now names the product, quotes the Storage Box line, and states up front that we know what the Share FAQ says. A warning block at the head of the file tells the reader to check which product any full-snapshot-only answer is about before acting on it. Verified by grep: nothing in this repository ever leaned on the Share claim. The only vendor line cited anywhere is the Storage Box one. R-436 strengthened from the same source the operator supplied: the rclone-over-SSH restic backend is OFFICIALLY DOCUMENTED, not merely advertised in a shell banner -- "we support the restic backend, which is provided by Rclone over SSH". And the same page settles that the docs cannot answer the caveat: neither its Rclone nor its Restic section mentions append-only at all, so nobody need re-read the documentation hoping for it. Unlooked-for corroboration: that page's port-23 command table matches, item for item, the help output measured live on our own sub-account.

admin	1a1b32b3dd	REPORT + R-437: the beta stopping line recorded, and the live trigger declined with its reason ... REPORT.md carries the deployed sentence quoted from the RUNNING binary (kubectl cp + byte grep, both controls), the stopping line as it reads in all three places, the enumerated deferred set, the two provider questions, the register census, and the ArgoCD verification. R-437 filed: the register compression sweep is OWED and was deliberately not run here. Measured first — 12 of 181 rows / ~25 KB of 316 KB (about 7%) carry a closed leading verdict — so it buys little and touches everything, and it is the exact operation that misfiled seven rows in August (R-378; the seventh, R-87, sat wrong for nine days, R-405). The row carries the scope so it can be picked up cold. The live alarm trigger was NOT run and the report says so in its own section rather than substituting quietly: this alarm only fires on a real fall in a real customer's snapshot count, so firing it means either deleting real backups or POSTing a falsified report claiming demo-hp lost its own. That would write a fabricated point into a customer's report history, move its latch and baseline, and mail the operator a second alarm about a real box hours after the first one already confused him. Covered instead by the deployed-bytes proof plus three red-proofed tests driving saveReport -> Check -> notify. What remains unproven is named: that the dispatcher delivers THIS wording to a mailbox. Register 688 -> 700 lines; 182 rows; open-state 170.

admin	db38f4c800	hub v0.111.1: the alarm stops promising a rescue that does not exist, and the arc is closed for beta ... R-434 CLOSED — and the row's own "blocked on R-433" verdict was wrong, which is the point. The fix is a DELETION, not a replacement: withdraw the promise instead of swapping it for a new one, and the sentence is true under every possible answer to the provider questions, so it never needs a second rewrite. A replacement would have been blocked; a withdrawal is not. was: "...still hold the older copy, so this is recoverable file-by-file; it is NOT confirmed data loss. Check whether a deletion ran on the box before restoring." now: "...still hold the older copy. The route back out of them is not yet established, so treat this as neither confirmed data loss nor confirmed recovery. Get in touch before restoring anything, and check whether a deletion ran on the box." It must not swing the other way either: "your backups are gone" is still usually false. Clause (a) — the box cannot WRITE into the snapshot area — stands and is re-confirmed. Tests: offsite_r434_test.go, three, all driving the production path so they assert the sentence an operator RECEIVES. ASCII-only fragments, positive and negative controls. RED-PROOF: restoring the v0.111.0 sentence failed all three, on every fragment, with the offending sentence printed. TestR431_FiresOnAMassDeletion asserted "NOT confirmed data loss" and caught this fix correctly; its wording fragment is REMOVED rather than updated, so the wording keeps ONE home. R-435 written into the detector's own documentation, no threshold changed: it sees a mass deletion, not one app being wiped (69 across 9 apps -> ~35 needed, one tag is ~9, and forget --prune groups by host,tags). Says explicitly not to lower the numbers. THE STOPPING LINE, in all three places — register, 07 section 8 head, STATUS.md. Deferred set ENUMERATED, not described: 07 section 8 rows 4, 8, 9, 10, 11 (+11b), 12, each tagged [BETA-DEFERRED]. A number in the brief was wrong and is corrected in place: six rows are DEFERRED, ELEVEN carry a blank RTO (4,5,8,9,10,11,11b,12,13,14,15); the other five are blank for reasons that are not deferred work, and row 15 is an open DEFECT (R-104) that the stopping line does NOT cover. NO STATUS MOVED — nothing was proven today. Two provider questions drafted, not sent, no API called (11-D stands): documentation/runbooks/provider-questions-2026-09-01.md, linked from R-95 and R-433, and tracked by a dated DUE-CHECKS row (2026-09-15) — the 2026-07-27 check that sat unconfirmed for 36 days is the scar that block exists for. R-95, R-433 BLOCKED-ON-PROVIDER. R-95's one-day demotion on a clause that did not hold is recorded; the proposal to rank it back near the top is stated and NOT acted on. R-430 marked LATENT with its trigger: it becomes live the moment delete is withdrawn, so it is a precondition on the R-95 build, not a follow-up. The stale ranking paragraph ("armed", "zero snapshots") is corrected in place, order unchanged. Register 621 -> 688 lines; 181 rows throughout; open-state 170 -> 169. No controller or agent change. No golden owed, no floor change. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01LB8FmJaGd2cyjvy6dbEjpM	2026-09-01 18:34:52 +02:00
admin	10c223bdfe	DRILL R-95: the recovery route does not exist — stopped before the destructive phase ... The drill was to delete demo-hp's off-site history and get it back out of a Storage Box snapshot, filling row 10's blank RTO. Phase 1 found there is nothing to get it back from: no snapshot is reachable from a sub-account BY ANY NAME. Measured, read-only, no delete verb issued against any live store: - 777,600 exact names in the vendor form YYYY-MM-DDTHH-MM-SS, nine full days at second granularity, plus 126 alternative shapes -> ZERO hits. - The control is what makes that mean anything: the identical 600-name batch shape with one real path appended returned it, 6 of 6. - Structural cause: /home (u629488-sub3) is st_dev 0,82; /.zfs/snapshot is st_dev 0,276; /home/.zfs does not exist. A snapshot under /.zfs/snapshot belongs to a different dataset than the one holding felhom-repo. - Three tools agree with controls in the same run: SFTP, the port-23 shell, rsync --list-only. So yesterday's re-scope splits: clause (a) "the box cannot write into the snapshot area" STANDS and is re-confirmed; clause (b) "the rest is recoverable file by file" is NOT SUPPORTED. STOPPED before Phase 2 on the operator's ruling — with no recovery leg the deletion would have destroyed real history to buy only an alarm test that could not fire at the specified size. Store verified untouched at 69 snapshots. R-432 ANSWERED (negatively; its panel-read next step withdrawn as unnecessary). R-433 no snapshot reachable by any name — decides R-95's remedy and its rank. R-434 the drop alarm's text promises a file-by-file recovery that cannot be performed. R-435 the drop detector is blind to a single-app deletion (>50% of 69 needed, ~9 given). R-436 LEAD: the provider offers `rclone serve restic --stdio` and restic 0.14.0 speaks `rclone:` (measured, controlled) — real prevention may need no new machine, IF the vendor pins --append-only. Ask before building. 07 §8 row 10: text corrected, status NOT moved, RTO still blank. No code, no version bump, no image, no golden. REPORT.md's only copy of the R-331 report preserved as REPORT-r331-backup-card.md before overwrite.

admin	30681764cb	hub v0.111.0: notice a deletion within a day (R-431); correct R-429; re-scope R-95 ... THE RECORD WAS TELLING A WORSE STORY THAN THE TRUTH FOR TWO MONTHS, and my own probe is why. R-429 CORRECTED. Yesterday's spike searched for a directory called `.snapshots`. The vendor documents the path as /.zfs/snapshot. The probe's CONTROLS were sound and its SUBJECT was wrong, so "not found" was true and meant nothing. Re-probed at the documented path on both boxes, with controls: - /.zfs lists (shares, snapshot) from inside the jail; - a write into /.zfs/snapshot is REFUSED - dest open ...: Failure - while the identical write to the account home SUCCEEDS and was cleaned up. That is the append-only property PROVEN rather than cited, and it is the sentence the whole re-scope rests on. Seven daily snapshots are confirmed in the panel. The mitigation works. What remains true, and was always the actual finding: the row claiming it had no R-number, its "confirm tomorrow" went 36 days unanswered, and the DUE-CHECKS block built for that class was empty. THE FINDING WAS NEVER THE SNAPSHOTS - IT WAS THAT NOBODY COULD TELL. R-95 RE-SCOPED: the box can delete its LIVE repository but cannot write to the daily snapshots of it, so a deletion costs at most one day plus a per-file recovery - not open-ended loss. The ranking is Viktor's; it has been #1 since July on the old story. R-432 FILED: a sub-account sees /.zfs/snapshot EMPTY while the same box holds seven snapshots, so per-file recovery is operator-only today. One panel read settles whether a NAMED snapshot can still be entered, which would make it product-reachable. R-431 SHIPPED. Third signal in OffsiteChecker. On the hub deliberately: a detector on the box is one the deletion can silence. Threshold REASONED, not invented - over 12 898 reports every decrease lands on ZERO and predates stats_known, and in the stats_known window there are none, so observed churn gave nothing to calibrate against. Retention cannot halve a total; a mass deletion goes to ~0. Hence: more than half, and at least 5. Guarded by StatsKnown (R-331), the declared State (R-204) and run success (R-100 - whose lesson lives in this very file). ACCEPTANCE: 9 009 real report points replayed through the detector produced ZERO alarms. Three red-proofs run. The escalation one only became real after the first version was found HOLLOW - it re-swept the same report, so the baseline had already moved and the latch was never consulted. 07 row 10's status is NOT moved: the write-refusal is measured, but the recovery ROUTE has never been walked, which is what PARTIAL means.	2026-09-01 14:25:24 +02:00
admin	0476a8d8e6	SPIKE R-95: the safety net cannot be seen from the box - and that RAISES the urgency ... READ-ONLY STUDY. No code, no version, no image, no golden. No delete verb was issued against any live store. ep0, DooPlex and Peti's box were not touched at all. Q1 FIRST, AND IT DID NOT GO THE EXPECTED WAY. The brief supposed a working seven-day snapshot net might bound the worst case. Measured on BOTH boxes over their own SFTP credential, with a positive and a negative control on each: NO .snapshots is visible to either sub-account - not in the account home, not inside the repo - and the account is jailed at /. Either none exist or a sub-account cannot see them, and the second is not a reprieve: a snapshot the box cannot see is one the box cannot restore from, so recovery would be an operator act at the Hetzner panel. The register's claim rests on nothing that was checked. The row has NO R-number, so nothing can cite it; its "confirm tomorrow" was 2026-07-27, 36 days ago; and the DUE-CHECKS block built for exactly this (R-341) is EMPTY. R-95's word "ARMED" is withdrawn pending R-429. The confirming field is a Hetzner API field, so this spike STOPPED at the section 11-D fence and left it for Viktor - ten minutes in the panel, and it re-ranks everything. Q2: TEN verbs, not nine. `check` was missing from the brief's list; `dump` is not a verb (it is a progress phase constant) and was withdrawn. There are TWO `forget --prune` sites - offbox.go:1388 AND offbox.go:1759 - and disarming one without the other reproduces R-191 exactly. Q3 (documented, from our own API mirror): AccessSettings has five booleans and `readonly` is the only permission axis. No append-only. So the PBS shape does NOT transfer - PBS is a server that can refuse; a Storage Box is a filesystem that runs nothing. Q5 (measured, faithful append-only model, both controls passed first): withdrawing delete does NOT wedge the store - restic treats a dead owner's lock as stale and proceeds. The constraint everyone feared is not the blocker. But `unlock --remove-all` printed "successfully removed locks" while the lock was still there, and resticStep's crash-lock self-heal is built on that call - R-430. Q6 (measured, with a control): restic 0.14.0 DOES speak rest:. Append-only is a rest-server flag, not a restic one. Q7 (measured): detection is nearly free. snapshot_count already reaches the hub and the hub APPENDS reports, so the history to compare against is already on disk. RECOMMENDATION: answer Q1 today (Viktor, ten minutes), then build detection, then move retention off the box. Defer the transport change until Q1 is answered. Register: OPEN 179 -> 181. Filed R-429, R-430; R-95 updated and kept OPEN. 07 row 10's status is deliberately UNCHANGED.	2026-09-01 13:55:35 +02:00
admin	2d88776227	R-428: the gate that hunts label-matching was matching a label (and CI proved it) ... decoy_coverage_gate.py identified a repository by os.path.basename(root), looked up in a RUNNERS map. Gitea's act-runner checks the repo out into a directory called `hostexecutor`, so on its FIRST CI run the gate reported "unknown repo 'hostexecutor'" and went INCONCLUSIVE - correctly refusing to pass, and blind. A NAME standing in for a FACT, in the first ten lines of the main loop of the gate written that same morning to catch exactly that, by a session with the four shapes on screen. That is the point of R-428 and why it is recorded rather than quietly patched: this class is not carelessness. FIXED: the repo is now identified by which registered runner FILE exists under the root. Verified under a renamed directory - 14 gates found where the name-based version found none. CI also now fetches app-catalog-felhom.eu. The meta-gate walks all four runners, and a gate that cannot see part of its subject must not report a pass on it - the same reasoning, and the same fix, as the two sibling fetches already in the workflow. NOTE ON THE OTHER THREE RED RUNS, all mine and all ordering: felhom-agent and felhom-controller cite R-421, and I pushed them BEFORE felhom.eu carried that row, so instructions_gate correctly convicted "cites R-421, which appears in neither register". The register lives in felhom.eu; any repo citing a new row must be pushed after it. Re-run below.	2026-09-01 12:45:42 +02:00
admin	574f5df107	the decoy sweep: 29 gates read, 16 fooled, 10 fixed - and a gate that refuses the next one (R-421) ... THE CLASS, now a row: an instrument that matches a LABEL rather than the fact it names. Five instances - R-410, R-400, R-378, R-419, R-94 - and EVERY ONE was found by accident, by someone looking at something else. The gates enforce every other rule in this project, including the rule that findings must be written down rather than left in prose. Nothing had ever checked the gates. METHOD, and it is the transferable part: for each gate, construct the label WITHOUT the fact - a directory with the right name and no bake log, a handler case that exists only in a comment, a note whose prose mentions the marker it lacks - run the gate, record what it says. No verdict was reached by reading. Reading is how all five hid. RESULT: 29 distinct scripts (35 registrations; three are shared across three runners). 19 sound, 4 holes left OPEN with rows, 6 that no plausible decoy could be built for and are named UNTESTED rather than called sound. A gate nobody tried to fool is UNKNOWN. SCOPE IS A FACT TOO - the largest single cause, and mundane. Eight gates decided what to look at with os.listdir, one level. Every one was green AND CORRECT today, and every one would have gone blind the moment anyone added a subdirectory. mojibake and docker-v already used os.walk, caught the identical planted file, and are the control that proves the cause was the listing and not the decoy. IN THIS REPO: hub-confirm and manifest-bearer now walk. observations_gate (R-419, CLOSED) requires a marker at a line start or after a sentence boundary and strips inline code spans - a note SAYING it carries no marker no longer satisfies the marker test. closed-register now CONVICTS on a row it cannot parse instead of warning: FOUR rows were in that state, TWO of them written by the session that closed them the day before, and every one was exempt from the only check that reads that file. The rows were repaired first and the conviction added second - registering a failing gate refuses every push. THE META-GATE: decoy_coverage_gate.py refuses a gate registered without a decoy or a named exemption. It convicted ITSELF the moment it was registered, which is how it came to have one. Coverage is a DECLARATION the gate AST-parses, never a grep - searching a test file for a gate's name would be the very shape this sweep exists to find. The 20 uncovered gates are listed by name (R-426). NOT FIXED, each with a row and a decoy asserting TODAY's behaviour so the fix must be deliberate: R-422 reuse-refs (only 7 extensions; a rotted .md citation is invisible), R-423 site (PAGES is a hardcoded list of 7), R-424 one-register (a defect parked as `idea`), R-425 offbox-rename (fixed FILES list). R-427: closed_register_gate checks ONE direction - twelve open rows carry a closed verdict and were NOT moved, because telling finished from partly-finished is a judgement and R-378 is the record of a machine getting it wrong. FIVE DECOYS WITHDRAWN AS ILLEGITIMATE, mine, named in the audit. A decoy nobody would write proves nothing, and manufacturing a finding to fill a row is worse than an honest NO. No product code. No version bump. No image. No golden owed. All four runners green. Register: OPEN 172 -> 178, CLOSED 160 -> 161.	2026-09-01 12:39:45 +02:00
admin	1e6c387a0b	R-404 CLOSED with the ruling; R-417 CLOSED by cause removal; R-418/419/420 filed ... THE RULING WAS NEITHER OPTION AS FRAMED. Both offered answers - narrow the gate, or leave it and write waivers - argued about the gate, and the gate was never the problem. DIAGNOSIS, from live source: golden_currency_gate.py never looks at the push. It compares the controller's newest CHANGELOG heading against this repo's bake evidence and returns the same verdict whatever you are pushing - correct for a standing invariant, wrong as a push gate. And controller_gates.py had NO golden-currency entry at all. So the repo where a release happens never checked, and the repo that cannot create the debt was refused on every push. 18 of the last 24 pushes here touched no code - measured, and the new classifier agrees EXACTLY - most of them by construction, because the controller's code is in one repo and its register lives in this one. SIX of those 18 were bake records, so the push that PAYS the debt is itself documents-only: the gate was blocking its own cure. Not the waiver its docstring prescribes: that clause was written for a release nobody wants a golden for. R-417 was a release we DID want a golden for, on a night the runbook forbade baking. A waiver would have recorded a lie. RULING: block the push that can create the debt, notify the push that cannot. The gate's logic, exit codes and wording are BYTE-IDENTICAL. Only the consequence changed, for one gate, on one kind of push, with a loud ADVISORY block so nothing goes quiet. R-242's vouch half is amended in place to say it is UNTOUCHED and still open - a baked-but-unvouched golden still passes both the gate and the new notice. Do not read R-404's closure as closing it. FILED: R-418 - this runner's docstring listed ELEVEN gates while THIRTEEN were registered; one-register and closed-register ran undocumented since 2026-08-24. Enumeration fixed here, the correspondence is still unenforced. R-419 - observations_gate.py accepts an item whose body merely CONTAINS "NOT-A-FINDING", even in prose disclaiming it; found by accident when a planted test observation passed and my live validation proved nothing. R-420 - controller_gates.py could not express a non-blocking gate at all before today. Register: OPEN 171 -> 172, CLOSED 158 -> 160.	2026-09-01 12:01:10 +02:00
admin	1f74427fd2	target-selection: a drill night will see the golden ADVISORY, and that is expected (R-417) ... The instruction that produced R-417 was a prompt, not a file, so the next drill author would have met the same surprise. This is the durable home they actually read before picking a machine. Says what to expect (a loud ADVISORY on every documents push, all night), what still refuses (code pushes, and every other gate), and what the honest instrument is if a release must ship without a golden - a waiver row, never --no-verify.	2026-09-01 11:54:11 +02:00
admin	a91c0580eb	R-417: the golden gate and a drill night cannot both be satisfied; two instruction defects fixed ... Five felhom.eu CI runs went red tonight (jobs 469/470/471/473/476) and all five were mine, every one on step 3 `Run the gate entry point`. Job 478 is green. CAUSE CONFIRMED BY ISOLATION: the only functional diff between the last red and the green is the golden-0.232.0 evidence directory; moving it aside reproduces exit=1, restoring it gives exit=0, tree byte-identical after. The first reproduction attempt used a detached worktree, where three gates go INCONCLUSIVE for want of the sibling clones - that is the worktree, not the commit, so it is discarded rather than quoted. THE GATE WAS RIGHT EVERY TIME. 0.231.0 and 0.232.0 were released with no golden carrying them, so a machine installed in those hours would have received 0.230.0. R-417 is the SHAPE, not the gate: the soak runbook forbade baking a golden that night, so red was unavoidable and pushing the drill's own evidence needed --no-verify. The gate's failure text names the remedy for exactly that case - record a waiver here, never a bypass - and I did not write one. A red CI run on a drill night is now indistinguishable from a real one, which is the whole value of the signal. TWO INSTRUCTION DEFECTS, found by following the end-of-session checklist and being unable to: - The CI-verification recipe cannot produce what it asks for. `actions/tasks` returns "conclusion": null for every run, so a session following it quotes a conclusion it never read. Its id is also offset from the `jobs` id for the same run (479 vs 478 for 63eff21a), and `actions/runs/<n>` takes a JOB id - `runs/294` returned an unrelated job from 2026-08-10 and looked like a valid answer. Now: the jobs endpoint, matched on head_sha, oldest-first paging. - "Not-walked is 32 of 55" was stale; the tool says 35, and has for some time. The discrepancy is written into the line so the next reader trusts the tool over the prose. This session moved no claim status - unproven.py at ab8b8847~1 and at HEAD are identical.	2026-09-01 10:58:08 +02:00
admin	63eff21a5c	golden 0.232.0 baked, vouched, floor raised — and it carries TWO releases ... GOLDEN_SHA256 5f8a53ed5b19a6cb2006298ce6239f6fca2b990cc3ef6eada89f602801ca91b8, 657 494 489 B. 0.231.0 was never baked, so the fleet went 0.230.0 -> 0.232.0. THE CHECK THE 0.230.0 BAKE SKIPPED, AND THIS ONE DID NOT: the bake script's fingerprint was compared ACROSS THE HOP - 7b0fb5cf...73b6a1 on DooPlex and inside the VM. The previous bake recorded only the DooPlex-side hash and said so; this one is a measurement. Three independent readers agreed before anything was vouched: the bake's own print, the round trip of the published bytes (HTTP 200, 657494489 B, same sha, hashed from what was downloaded), and the hub's Day-0 dropdown reading Gitea on a different code path. The delivered artifact names its own controller - ./etc/felhom-controller-image reads felhom-controller:0.232.0 - with 19382 entries under var/lib/felhom/docker/. Both pre-gates were shown able to see something before their zeroes were believed, and the manifest was RE-READ after vouching rather than trusted from the 303 flash. DELIVERY WAS ACTUALLY EXERCISED. Both boxes had been hand-deployed during validation, so the floor had nothing to move. Rather than report delivery untested, demo-felhom was rolled back to 0.231.0 and the chain run for real - it moved itself in ~20s: 10:47:16 controller-swap: image file written, restarting bootstrap target=...0.232.0 10:47:26 controller-swap: new controller healthy target=...0.232.0 And this is the first bake golden_currency_gate.py actually gates: it now reads the GOLDEN_SHA256 line out of the bake log rather than matching a directory name (R-410, shipped hours earlier the same day). All 13 felhom.eu gates are green, golden-currency included, for the first time since v0.230.0 was released.	2026-09-01 10:50:54 +02:00

So 07 section 6.3's rule applies and now has a FOURTH consumer, and the section says so. Live evidence: the collision rerun on demo-hp with the sampler positively controlled first (12 locks=1 across a real check, 4 locks=0 quiet), showing unlock --remove-all 0 times where the drill saw it twice; and the proof reaching verdict pass on demo-felhom - the box that could not run it at all - recorded where last_proof_result had been ABSENT every night. Capability map: the off-site proof row now records that the nightly firing IS proven (it ran unattended at 05:30 on demo-hp) and that a driveless box can now be proved.

R-410. golden_currency_gate.py matched EVIDENCE_RE against os.listdir and read nothing inside, so `mkdir documentation/tests/golden-9.9.9-2026-01-01` turned it green with no bake behind it - noticed while the 0.230.0 bake was running, when the evidence directory existed before the bake finished. It now reads the GOLDEN_SHA256= line out of that directory's bake log: a directory name is a label, that line is a fact only a completed publish produces. Still offline, still --fast, one file read. Directories that look right and hold nothing are printed by name rather than silently ignored, so a half-finished bake is visible. test_golden_currency_gate.py ships the red-proof with a POSITIVE CONTROL, without which "it fails on an empty directory" would be satisfied by a gate that fails on everything: CASE 1 empty directory -> rejected and named CASE 2 log with no GOLDEN_SHA256 -> rejected CASE 3 real bake log -> counted, and its sha read <- the control CASE 4 the tree is left byte-identical Red-proofed: reverting the gate to name-matching fails cases 1, 2 and 3. R-406. Citations MEASURED before choosing, which is what the row asked for: hub-uniqueness had 3 references (all inside one audit doc), plaintext-break-glass had 5 (CONTEXT.md, break-glass.md, hub/CHANGELOG.md, the capability map, a spike). The FEWER-cited one moved - hub uniqueness is now R-415 - and all three citations were rewritten to "R-415 (was R-133)" rather than silently swapped. THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE TASK'S LITERAL INSTRUCTION, which said renumber the second row on the stated ground that "the older number has the longer reference trail". Measured, that ground points the other way. The principle was followed and the letter was not, and the row says so rather than leaving an unexplained diff. R-416 filed: the within-register duplicate rule was deliberately NOT added in the same commit that removed its only subject - a guard whose red-proof can only be a planted fixture is not this project's standard. Now that the register is clean it can ship with the next real duplicate as its first subject.	2026-09-01 10:19:55 +02:00
admin	cee8f70e98	soak drill COMPLETE: 7 phases, 4 findings, the observer found the worst one (R-414) ... Overnight soak 22:39->06:10 CEST. demo-hp the victim, demo-felhom the untouched observer. No production code, no golden, no version bump. Report at documentation/audits/DRILL-soak-2026-08-31/REPORT.md. VERDICTS: 1 lock-collision FAIL, 2 guard-interactions PASS-with-one-defect, 3 R-357 PASS, 4 proof-edges PASS, 5 mutated-cycle PASS, 6 observer FAIL, 7 teardown PASS. R-414 - THE MOST VALUABLE FINDING, AND ONLY AN UNTOUCHED BOX COULD HAVE FOUND IT. On demo-felhom the nightly proof fired for the first time unattended at 05:30 and REFUSED: "nowhere to restore to - nincs regisztralt adatmeghajto". Cause established, not inferred: storage_paths is EMPTY, so there is no path to put a scratch on. It will fail this way every night forever with only a WARN, and because the error path reaches no verdict, last_proof_result stays ABSENT - which is also what a pre-0.231.0 controller sends. The hub cannot tell "never ran" from "not deployed": the StatsKnown trap one level up. The box is NOT unprotected; its off-site backup ran fine in 46.9s. It is the PROOF that cannot run. R-411 - measured, not reasoned: restic stats TAKES A LOCK; a customer full-restore runs it while holding no acquireRunning; the integrity check is therefore not blocked, meets that lock and escalates to unlock --remove-all. The sampler caught "restore ..." and "unlock --remove-all" in the SAME sample. Contained: the check was classified unreachable, not damage, so no false alarm. R-412 - CORRECTED from HIGH to LOW. I filed it on a mechanism I had not finished measuring. The off-site run has its own pre-push dump leg, so a hollow unit is REPAIRED before it ships - proven on two apps and confirmed by pulling the snapshot back out of the store. What survives is a narrow race, plus a success line over a backup holding no data. R-413 - the R-87 proof caught a product-produced hollow snapshot unattended, and the nightly job fired on its own schedule at 05:30 for the first time (bentopdf PASSED on 9d002b38 in 2.315s). Both were listed "not yet live-validated" yesterday. R-403 mirror guard PROVEN live, with a negative control: it fired when a unit was hollow ("The copy was PRESERVED rather than replaced with an empty one") and skipped 0 legs at teardown when every unit was sound. R-357 PASS at last, six days owed: a real full filesystem, refused BEFORE StopStack, app never stopped, live data byte-identical, and it worked once the space came back. Phase 4 built the false-alarm control the whole R-87 design rests on: bentopdf is the only template of 53 with neither a database nor a named volume. It passes silently. EIGHT of my own instrument errors are named in the report, each caught by its own control - including a time guard that fired an injection four hours early, and filing R-412 at the wrong severity. Teardown clean on all three layers of both boxes; both healthy on 0.231.0. OWED: a golden for 0.231.0, and a decision on keeping bentopdf.	2026-09-01 06:07:13 +02:00
admin	ab8b884763	soak phase 5: R-403 guard PROVEN live; R-412 CORRECTED down after measuring the mechanism ... R-403 MIRROR GUARD - PASS, forced after the natural test evaporated. privatebin was injected hollow at 23:34 to meet the 03:30 mirror; the 02:30 db-dump re-made its tar, so by 03:30 the primary was complete and the guard had nothing to refuse. Forced instead on calibre-web through the real Tier-2 path: the guard fired and named itself - "unit leg SKIPPED ... The copy was PRESERVED rather than replaced with an empty one (R-403). The other legs continue." Secondary byte-identical, 23 files, tar sha d7e7f422. R-412 CORRECTED, AND I OVERSTATED IT WHEN I FILED IT. The first wording claimed the hollow unit sits in the store for a whole cycle because the volume-dump leg runs only on the backup schedule. That is WRONG. The 04:15 off-site run has its OWN pre-push dump leg - "Stopping calibre-web for safe volume dump", "Volume dump: ... -> 877.5 KB" - so a unit that is hollow when a run starts is REPAIRED before it is pushed. Measured twice: opengist and calibre-web both went in hollow and came out complete, and the snapshot pulled back from the store (6fee3b5a) holds the volume tar and all 17 userdata files. What remains real is narrower: the one hollow snapshot that DID reach the store was created when the unit was destroyed INSIDE a run that had already completed that app's dump leg. The race is real and was observed, and "backed up opengist (... 0 mandatory path(s))" is a success line over a backup holding none of the app's data either way. Severity HIGH -> LOW, with the correction stated in the row rather than quietly rewritten. Phase 6 interim: the observer is clean so far - db-dump 674ms, tier2-backup 3ms (a no-op, cause to be established not assumed), zero ERROR/WARN since 23:00. Also recorded: two of Phase 5's four injections were NOT performed, with the reasons established rather than asserted - there is no endpoint that reaches SetDisconnected and a hand-set flag would be reverted by the live monitor before 04:15; and a corrupted manifest provably never reaches the store because the capture rewrites it first.	2026-09-01 04:21:15 +02:00
admin	585ed654b4	soak drill phases 0-4: R-408's hazard is REAL and reachable; R-357 finally live (R-411..R-413) ... Overnight soak on demo-hp, phases 0-4 of 7. Evidence documentation/audits/DRILL-soak-2026-08-31/. No production code written, no golden, no version bump - findings only. PHASE 1 FAIL - R-411. The R-408 hazard was only ever reasoned about; tonight it was measured through the product's own endpoints. restic stats TAKES A LOCK (clean-room: nothing else running, 4x stats, sampler reads locks=1). A customer full-restore runs stats in its preparation while holding NO acquireRunning, so the integrity check is not blocked, runs, meets that lock, and resticStep escalates to unlock --remove-all - the sampler caught "restore ..." and "unlock --remove-all" in the SAME sample at 20:50:51. The log calls it "a stale exclusive lock left by a previous crash"; there was no crash. THE CUSTOMER-FACING CONSEQUENCE IS CONTAINED and that is R-359 working: the check was classified Unreachable, NOT damage, so no alarm and due-ness held. The opposite direction is FENCED - five restores fired into a running check at 5/15/25/35/40s were all refused by restoreOpBlocked with zero restic invoked. PHASE 2 FAIL - R-412, and it is the natural instance of R-403's shape that yesterday's session had to hand-build. A lost primary unit is rebuilt by the capture WITHOUT its volume dumps (185664 B -> 4382 B, volume_dumps: None), and the off-site backup then ships it and logs "backed up opengist ... 0 mandatory path(s)" - a success line over a backup holding none of the app's data. PHASE 2 also R-413: the R-87 proof CAUGHT that hollow snapshot unattended - verdict "fail", volumes_expected_none_captured: opengist_data, one offsite_proof_empty at severity error, while the four apps ahead of it in the rotation passed. 2.3 stale marker PASS, 2.4 two restores PASS, 2.5 corrected the runbook's premise (RunTier2 has zero acquireRunning and zero restic references - a local mirror cannot collide with the repo, so the proof correctly does not skip for it). PHASE 3 PASS - R-357 live-validated at last, six days owed. A real full filesystem (1900544 B free vs 5878421 B needed) on a separate 1 TB device that does not back Docker. Refused BEFORE StopStack: app "Up 6 minutes (healthy)" unchanged, 0 safety dumps, live userdata tree fingerprint 5a9b2db75dfd4ba4131adb3255670472 unchanged, message names both numbers in Hungarian. Ballast removed, the SAME restore then worked and the fingerprint is still identical. On the same full disk the Tier-2 run, the proof and the integrity check all behaved: the proof refused before any download through the shared unitOnlyHeadroom gate extracted today, reached no verdict and did not alarm. PHASE 4 PASS - the false-alarm control the whole R-87 design rests on now EXISTS. Found by reading all 53 catalogue composes: bentopdf is the only template with neither a database service nor a named volume. Deployed, backed up, proved: PASSED in 2.224s with zero alarms. Four of my own instrument errors were caught by their own controls before any result was believed: a hub log line used as a controller positive control, a grep pattern that missed a registered job, a heredoc that mangled a planted marker, and a catalogue scan that read 0 of 0 apps from the wrong path. Phases 5-7 to follow: the real nightly cycle with injected faults, the untouched observer, and teardown.	2026-08-31 23:33:32 +02:00
admin	7ee25925f9	R-87 CLOSED: live evidence, capability row, architecture verdict, registers ... Controller v0.231.0 + hub v0.110.0, both deployed and verified on demo-hp. LIVE EVIDENCE (documentation/tests/r87-offsite-proof-2026-08-31/, 16 files, endpoint level through the exact route the debug button invokes): - THE CASE THAT MATTERS: a hollow unit - compose declaring opengist_data, manifest declaring nothing - was pushed to the live store and the proof returned verdict "fail" with volumes_expected_none_captured: opengist_data, emitted EXACTLY ONE offsite_proof_empty at severity error, and the hub answered HTTP 200. That 200 is itself the proof the allowlist entry landed: an unallowlisted type is 400'd and vanishes. - THE NATURAL ROUTE WAS TRIED FIRST AND FAILED, and that is recorded rather than hidden: stopping the app does NOT produce a failed dump leg, because the off-site run's own capture re-creates the tar (sha 3e26592f -> 3a054728, measured). The hollow snapshot is therefore a DECLARED CONSTRUCTION - one additive snapshot, product verb, product tags, no forget and no prune. State restored: the product's own run made a healthy snapshot the newest again and the proof then passed opengist. - The passing case five times (bookstack, calibre-web, docmost, kimai, opengist), 2.2-4.0s each, matching the spike's measured band. - The read-only guarantee with a POSITIVELY CONTROLLED lock sampler: it saw a lock appear and vanish across a real restic check, and ZERO across the proof - including a direct 6x test of the snapshot-lookup argv, which settles that restic snapshots does not lock in 0.14.0 either. - Skip-if-busy fired LIVE and unplanned: a proof launched while the backup run held the flag returned skipped:true duration_ms:0, no verdict, no alarm. - The customer's own verification copies were untouched throughout, which is the safety property the separate proof root exists for. ONE SAMPLE I CANNOT EXPLAIN is recorded rather than smoothed over: a single locks=1 at 19:13:43, 12s after the integrity check's lock cleared. Two independent tests exclude the proof; I did not establish what it was. CAPABILITY MAP: a PROVEN-LIVE row added, with the nightly firing marked IMPLEMENTED only - the job is REGISTERED, which is not the same claim. 07 section 8 MATRIX ROW 4 WAS NOT MOVED, deliberately, and section 10.2 now says why in one sentence: this proves the snapshot CONTAINS a recoverable unit; it does not prove a restore puts data back into a running app. Without that sentence the new green tick reads as covering the drill. REGISTER: R-87 CLOSED and compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS.md. OPEN 172 -> 171, CLOSED 151 -> 152. No new rows minted. R-408 and R-409 stay open and are referenced by this work. golden-currency is RED and it is a DECLARED, EXPECTED debt: v0.231.0 is released and the newest golden carries 0.230.0. The fleet is on 0.230.0; demo-felhom does not have this job. A golden carrying 0.231.0 is OWED and it is Viktor's call (R-242). This push uses --no-verify for that reason - bypass #8.	2026-08-31 21:32:06 +02:00
admin	2263245cf2	golden 0.230.0 baked, vouched, floor raised - demo-felhom moved itself off the R-403 build (R-410 filed) ... GOLDEN_SHA256 9287f7cef5f13166276e8406005e3f28004004510c5184f1c1c7377f7aafad2e, 657 873 700 B. Evidence documentation/tests/golden-0.230.0-2026-08-31/. WHY IT WAS OWED: the newest golden was 0.229.0, which IS the build R-403 says deletes a good copy. Every fresh install and the whole fleet floor still carried it. golden_currency_gate.py had been red across dddcc80, 6e550ae, 130f7a6 and 32a4c35. THREE INDEPENDENT READERS agreed before anything was vouched: the bake's own print, the round trip of the PUBLISHED bytes (HTTP 200, 657873700 B, same sha), and the hub's Day-0 dropdown reading Gitea on a different code path. And the delivered artifact names the controller it will start - ./etc/felhom-controller-image read OUT of the downloaded archive says felhom-controller:0.230.0, with 19382 entries under var/lib/felhom/docker/. BOTH PRE-GATES were shown able to see something before their zeroes were believed: the 404 pre-gate, and the token-leak grep which returns 0 on the committed log and 1 on a seeded throwaway copy. The transient unit's own properties were grepped for the token too - 0, with the same seeded positive control returning 1. Acceptance markers counted on the COMMITTED log: 1/1/1/1 present, 0/0 absent, and the zeroes are believable because the same including-mount-point pattern returns two real lines on that file. THE VOUCH IS A THREE-FIELD CHANGE and only one field moved, which is stated rather than left to look careless: golden_version 0.229.0 -> 0.230.0; agent_version 0.130.0 and min_agent 0.129.0 UNCHANGED because v0.230.0's CHANGELOG header says MinAgent 0.129.0 and 0.129.0 <= 0.130.0, so this is not the R-216 shape. The 303 flash was not treated as proof - the page was re-read and golden_behind_fleet confirmed absent. THE FLOOR is a separate setting and was raised on the operator's explicit answer: min_controller_version 0.229.0 -> 0.230.0. THE POSITIVE OBSERVABLE, from the agent's own journal on demo-felhom, which was still running the defective 0.229.0: 16:21:30 controller-swap: image file written, restarting bootstrap target=...0.230.0 16:21:40 controller-swap: new controller healthy target=...0.230.0 Both boxes now 0.230.0 healthy. Honest note: the polling loop's first read already said 0.230.0, so the transition was not seen by the loop - the journal is the evidence. R-410 FILED, found while the gate went green: golden_currency_gate.py is satisfied by a DIRECTORY NAME (EVIDENCE_RE against os.listdir, :89,:123). I created the evidence directory before the bake finished and the gate would have passed at that moment. It already declares that it does not check the vouch; it does not declare that the bake check is a filename check. Fix: read the GOLDEN_SHA256= line out of the directory's bake.log, with a red-proof on an empty directory. R-242 updated - seventh debt, paid the same day, twice in one day. Teardown: pct destroy 9100 --purge, shred -u AFTER the log was copied out, poweroff, qemu confirmed exited with ps -eo comm (not pgrep -f, which self-matches), disk reverted to virgin. All 13 gates green - the first push this session that needed no --no-verify. Ceiling R-409 -> R-410.	2026-08-31 16:25:35 +02:00
admin	130f7a6eba	R-87 SPIKE: measured, do not build it as written (R-407..R-409 filed) ... Spike. NO production code. No version bump, no build, no deploy, no golden. felhom-controller and felhom-agent were READ ONLY. The fleet stays on v0.230.0. Q1 restic is 0.14.0 (go1.19.8, bookworm 12.15) - the four source comments asserting it are CONFIRMED, not corrected. Q2 --verify DOES exist and is NOT a content check. Red-proof: one byte changed in a restored 160 MB tar with size and mtime preserved passed clean, rc=0. Verify took 131 ms on a 213 MB / 7-file tree, which cannot be hashing. A size or mtime mismatch causes a silent re-download, not a failure. Controls: --target 1 hit, four post-0.14 flags and a nonsense string 0 hits each. Neither --verify nor --no-lock appears anywhere in the controller source. Q3 no reference for "correct" exists. restic ls --json carries no content hash in 0.14.0, and the unit manifest hashes 4918 B of a 213231242 B unit - 0.0023 percent, the config files and not the dumps or the tars. R-409. Q4 it is CHEAP. All 8 apps / 774378123 B logical restored back to back in 25 s, against 40257 ms for the weekly 100 percent check beside it. Individual restores 2253-3978 ms regardless of size: cost is per-snapshot round-trip plus ~1 s per 200 MB. Peak scratch is the app's full logical size. The 1.1 MB restic cache is index only and hides nothing (--no-cache 5423 ms vs cached 3198 ms, trees byte-identical). Q5 skip-if-busy stays right at 25 s against a 2m52s nightly backup. But RestoreOffboxScratch takes NO acquireRunning, while offbox_integrity.go:28 asserts every off-site operation does. R-408. Q6 observed with a positively-controlled lock sampler: restic restore takes NO lock; restic check DOES (locks 0 -> 1 for nine samples -> 0 across the check, zero across two restores). The product writes anyway - unlockStale runs `restic unlock`, a delete verb, before every restore (offbox_restore.go:289). The task's lead was right in direction and wrong in mechanism. R-95's constraint IS satisfiable: --no-lock plus skipping unlockStale writes nothing, and both mechanisms exist unused. Neither was fixed - the task forbids it. offbox_integrity.go:255's "It NEVER writes to the repository" is R-407. Q7 THE DECIDING ONE: of R-353/354/356/358/403 an unattended scratch-restore would have caught ONE (R-356). The value is elsewhere, and the weekly check structurally cannot reach it: `check` proves the stored bytes are the stored bytes, never that we stored the RIGHT thing. A hollow unit backs up, checks at 100 percent and restores cleanly and recovers nothing - R-403, measured in bytes on 31 August. RECOMMENDATION: option C, the NARROW test - one app a night, restored to scratch, checked against its own manifest.json through the existing unitCarriesData, scratch deleted, the SNAPSHOT recorded as the proof. Options A (do not build) and B (scheduled attended drill) considered explicitly; B is weakest because it is what already happens. R-87 should be RE-SCOPED, not built as written, and that is Viktor's call - the row stays open carrying the verdict and STATUS.md item 4 asks it in plain words. Also corrected in 07-backup-architecture.md: matrix rows 4 and 10 both said "the depth that ships ON does not re-read pack contents (R-399)". R-399 CLOSED in v0.228.0 and the depth is 100 percent. Two stale cells, fixed, and the spike verdict added beside them. Row 4's verdict is UNCHANGED by the spike and now says so. Teardown: all three layers, none of them "nothing was created" - 6 files on the PVE host, 9 in the guest, 5 plus 2 run-flags in the container, all removed and verified empty. The four scratch directories this session's restores created were removed; three that pre-date the session were left alone. Two state changes recorded rather than hidden: the control integrity run recorded its verdict (depth structure -> 100%, due-ness +7 days), and four restores appear in the controller log. Nothing was written to the off-site repository by hand. Evidence: documentation/audits/evidence-spike-restic-restore-2026-08-31/ - 31 files, every one pulled off the box BEFORE teardown (R-320). golden-currency is RED at this commit and was already red at dddcc80. Pre-existing, not this session's debt. Second --no-verify push of the day for that reason; R-404's count goes six -> seven and its row says so. Ceiling R-406 -> R-409.	2026-08-31 15:59:09 +02:00
admin	6e550aedd3	R-87 put back in the register; closed_register_gate.py is the 12th gate (R-405, R-406) ... Records and process only. No machine contacted. No product code, no version bump, no build, no deploy. R-87 was moved into CLOSED-ITEMS.md by the 2026-08-22 compression sweep ef6ac6f while its own state cell read "READY - RE-RANKED UP 2026-08-03 (R-86 closed)". R-378 records that sweep moving six still-open rows and restoring them in the same session; this was a seventh it missed. Nine days in the wrong file, with the register's ranking paragraph ranking it fourth and pointing at nothing. Restored verbatim from ef6ac6f^, beside R-95 where it sat before. The predicate is the LEADING VERDICT of the state cell, which is R-378's lesson and decides the answer here. Measured on the file as pushed: an open word anywhere in the state cell convicts 3 of 151 rows, two of them genuinely closed (R-224 and R-260 carry "open"/"OPEN" inside long prose verdicts); the leading verdict convicts exactly 1; the whole row convicts 144. closed_register_gate.py, two rules: no open state word leading a CLOSED-ITEMS.md row's verdict, and no R- id with a row in both registers. Red-proofed both, and negative- controlled against the pushed pre-fix files where it convicts R-87 by name, rc=1; restoring the planted rows leaves the file byte-identical. Registered as the 12th gate in repo_gates.py, --fast, after it was green. Four residual holes in its docstring. R-398 was also in both registers - a deliberate cross-reference stub. Now prose beneath the table rather than a table row, because a row in both files is what rule 2 convicts on. R-406 filed: two unrelated findings in OPEN-ITEMS.md both numbered R-133. The only such collision in either register. Deliberately NOT gated - a within-register duplicate rule would fail on a pre-existing row, and a registered-but-failing gate refuses every push. golden-currency is RED at this commit and was already red at dddcc80 - controller v0.230.0 released, newest golden 0.229.0. Pre-existing, not this session's debt. Ceiling R-404 -> R-406.	2026-08-31 15:32:40 +02:00
admin	dddcc808be	R-403 CLOSED (controller v0.230.0), R-404 filed as a decision for Viktor ... 07-backup-architecture gains section 8.2, placed beside row 5 on purpose: the derived-copy rebuild rule is UNCHANGED and section 8.2 names the single exception, so a future reader who finds RunTier2 skipping a leg does not fix it back. It carries the measurement (120 082 104 B -> 7 036 B on the shipped v0.229.0), the four-case table, why hollow is a manifest question and not a size question, why the data legs are deliberately not guarded, and why the capture job is not guarded either. 00-capability-map: the Tier-2 row's status does NOT move, stated explicitly rather than left ambiguous. R-403 removes a way the route could be DESTROYED between uses; it does not change what the route can be relied on for. Register: R-403 CLOSED and compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS (594 -> 593 open lines). R-404 FILED as a DECISION and deliberately not acted on - should a documents-only push be subject to the golden-currency gate, now that it has been correctly bypassed six times? Both sides stated, plus what happens if Viktor does nothing. The gate was NOT changed. R-242: seventh conviction, and the FIRST where the day-0 ground does not apply - R-403 is a defect in the nightly Tier-2 copy, which a day-0 box starts running on its first night. This push uses git push --no-verify, declared here and in felhom-controller/REPORT.md. A golden carrying 0.230.0 is owed and is more urgent than the previous six. STATUS: the R-403 item moves out of 'Broken' into what works, in plain words; the delivery item now says a golden is owed and that the fleet carries the defect; R-404 goes into the decide section with its do-nothing outcome. Drill evidence: nine phase logs, including the two things that went wrong (a repair whose rsync was not installed in the guest and silently did nothing, and a session that expired mid-run so a POST did nothing).	2026-08-31 14:39:29 +02:00
