admin 8e9401c6bf Localisation slice 5 CLOSED: the catalog speaks English and the floor is at 0.257.0
gates / gates (push) Successful in 27s
Part C shipped the same day the pilot was read: fifty apps in three pushes, 1 031 of
1 032 strings. The English Apps list shows ZERO Hungarian app descriptions across all
53 apps — the only Hungarian left on it is the "Naprakész" badge (R-589) and the
language picker naming itself, which is correct.

The Hungarian Apps list is identical to the pre-slice capture once the per-session
CSRF token AND Docker's own "Up N hours" container string are normalised. Both
normalisations are stated in the evidence rather than applied quietly — the second
one moved because two hours of wall clock passed between captures, not because any
copy changed.

Fleet floor raised to 0.257.0 with the declared MinAgent 0.131.0, above the vouched
golden so the declaration carries it. demo-felhom went 0.255.0 -> 0.257.0 by itself
in under 12 seconds and THEN rendered the English tagline: the floor delivered the
feature, not a version string.

Rows: R-593 (papra describes a session-signing key as "the app's subdomain" — the one
string left untranslated) and R-594 (the catalog gate can convict a retrieval promise
but has no way to REGISTER a true one, which the shared vocabulary's design calls
for). R-560 closed. 281 -> 287 rows.

admin f538a03bd5 Localisation slice 5: the catalog's copy model is MEASURED, not proposed (R-560)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 25s
10-localisation.md §7 goes from [DESIGN, proposed] to [FACT], with the numbers it was
specced against corrected — and one correction chose an instrument rather than a
footnote. The catalog has 1 032 copy strings, not 835. 832 carry a Hungarian letter,
which was right. But the ASCII-ONLY Hungarian is ~120 strings, not three: „Aldomain"
appears 53 times and „A szerver domain neve" 53 times, and the three the plan named
(„Igen"/„Nem"/„Nincs") do not occur in this catalog at all. An accent-only gate passes
every one of them inside an English block — R-565's blind spot arriving again in a
different repo.

New §10.6 records what was proven live rather than reasoned about: the English pages
show English; the seven Hungarian pages are byte-identical before and after the push
apart from the per-session CSRF token; and a 0.255.0 box with the block synced onto it
renders identically and logs no warning, in a 93-line window that contains the sync's
own lines, so the absence is evidence and not a dead log.

Rows R-589 (the update badge is Hungarian on an English page), R-590 (the data-folder
card's backup promise, likewise, and it is a promise about the customer's files),
R-591 (Stack.Copy() deep-copies five Meta fields and not the new I18n map — safe
today, which is precisely why it is a row), R-592 (three defects inside the new
catalog gate, closed the same session, each found by its own decoy). R-560 updated:
Parts A and B done, Part C waiting on the operator's read of the pilot.

STATUS asks for that read, and for the floor to 0.257.0.

admin 5a654ebc9a slice 4: bilingual console + the English download page is live (R-559)
The image is BUILT but NOT PUBLISHED, and that is deliberate: publishing to
iso.felhom.eu is public and irreversible, and the runbook needs a proof install
on BOTH menu entries plus a reboot against the uploaded bytes. That is
supervised, so I stopped there. felhom-installer-1.29.0-pve9.2-1.iso, sha256
c67ceaa3…fb02, with every mechanically checkable criterion passing (G1, G2, G5,
G6, G7, G9, G16 — including both payload files byte-identical to repo HEAD).

The download pages still name 1.28.0, the image that IS published. Pointing
them at a file that is not there would hand every reader a 404. A new site gate
refuses the two pages naming different installer files or checksums, so
whoever publishes 1.29.0 cannot update one and forget the other.

Measured rather than read: the pairing banner is 24 rows on a 25-row console.
One row of margin — so the height is now pinned, because two more lines push
the HUNGARIAN code at row 5 off the top, and a banner whose code has scrolled
away is furniture.

R-587: two root-password files from July sit in the directory the public ISO is
published from. Both 404 on the bucket (against a 200 control), so nothing
leaked — but the only thing keeping them off is an --include pattern they miss
by an accident of naming. A pattern that protects by coincidence is not a
control.

R-588: release records live in two different places, which made me wrongly
conclude 1.28.0's gate had never been run. It had.

admin 183727db9c docs: localisation slice 3 CLOSED — evidence, R-558/R-555 closed, R-585 filed
gates / gates (push) Successful in 25s
Part B's live proof is a LOG LINE rather than an e-mail, and the evidence page
says why: severityNotifies drops `info`, so every safe converted producer mails
nobody, and every converted producer above `info` describes something bad that
is not true. Triggering one would mean a false record on a real box's timeline
or a state change the fences forbid. The log line was built in v0.256.1 for
exactly this, after finding there was nothing to look at on either side of the
wire.

  15:07:28  controller_started [hu-only]        — Controller elindult (0.256.1)
  15:08:25  controller_started [+household(en)] — Controller elindult (0.256.1)

The Hungarian sentence is identical in both, and the hub stored the Hungarian
in every case including the English-household push.

R-558 CLOSED, R-555 closed with it. R-585 filed: six producers still send
Hungarian only because their sentence arrives already finished from another
package — `offbox_enlarge_blocked` matters most, since it has no hub entry so
its raw sentence IS the household's whole mail.

10-localisation.md gains 10.4; STATUS rewritten for the operator with the two
decisions left (raise the floor to 0.256.1; whether to rotate the demo
password after R-584).

admin 9167cf53af hub v0.118.0: the household's e-mails follow the household's language (R-558 Part A)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 23s
The hub has written every customer e-mail in Hungarian whatever the box was set
to. The box has published its language since controller v0.247.0; nothing read
it. Now it does.

Nothing an operator reads changes. The Hungarian mails are byte-identical, and
that is a diff rather than a reading: 56 goldens per language captured from
v0.117.0 BEFORE any string moved, and all 56 Hungarian ones pass unchanged after
every sentence was routed through the new bundle.

- internal/i18n: flat bundle, 79 keys, hu authoritative + hu fallback, ceiling 0.
- customerMessages/severityLabels are DERIVED from the bundle, so a sentence is
  written in one place and all 40+ tests that read those maps still work.
- Language order: last reported -> created-with -> hu. reports.language defaults
  to EMPTY, never hu: "never told us" is not "chose Hungarian".
- message_customer on POST /api/v1/event, additive and optional forever, for the
  sentences the box composes and the hub cannot translate.
- The bind page is per-language, and its `expired` state stays Hungarian: it is
  the state an unknown token lands in, so rendering a real English customer's
  token in English would make the LANGUAGE answer what the TEXT refuses to.

Two defects found inside the release:
- R-581: the newest report was picked by received_at, which has SECOND
  granularity, so same-second reports tied and the winner was arbitrary. Ordered
  by the autoincrement id now. GetCustomers() still has the shape - row open.
- R-582: the English copy-guard stems, ported word for word from Hungarian,
  convicted 141 honest sentences. The English claim is a phrase with a modal.

R-555 closed: the language allowlist entry is out of wire_contract_gate.py.
hub_copy_gate.py follows the sentences into the bundle - without that it would
have scanned four files that no longer hold any customer text and reported
success. Three new decoys incl. an innocent control.

admin 4df2cd5174 docs: controller v0.255.0 — the globe fix on the sign-in-flow pages
gates / gates (push) Successful in 22s
R-579 filed and closed the same day: five shell templates loaded style.css
with no cache-buster, so a browser holding the pre-0.254.0 file rendered the
new globe unstyled; and the globe sat outside the card.

- STATUS.md rewritten for the operator: what was seen, why, the third defect
  found while fixing it (version disclosure on the guest share page, caught by
  TestShareGuest_HeadersTilesNoAdminChrome), and the one decision left —
  raise the fleet floor to 0.255.0, with what happens either way.
- 10-localisation.md §3: the shells' asset tag, and why the two guest pages get
  an opaque tag rather than the version.
- Audit D: the parity diff (91 of 106 fixtures identical, every dashboard page
  among them) and the live endpoint evidence from demo-hp guest 9201.

admin 95c10954ae docs: localisation slice 2 CLOSED (controller v0.254.0) — R-577, R-578, and a probe rule
gates / gates (push) Successful in 23s
10-localisation.md §10.3: the saved notes follow the box language at write time, with the
one-night consequence stated rather than hidden; the globe, and the table of WHO reads which
page and where its globe posts — getting that wrong makes the button do nothing, which it did
on /recovery until the live probe found it. Decision 6 superseded a second time; decision 8
(a claim carries the visitor's language) recorded. Decision 5 of §11's anonymous-surface line:
changing what a VISITOR reads is within what an anonymous request may do; changing anything the
household owns is not, and POST /lang can do only the first.

R-578 — the deadlock, and why it is a row rather than a fixed bug: UpdateOffboxStatus holds the
settings write lock while running its callback, boxLang() wants the read lock, sync.RWMutex is
not reentrant. On a real box an off-site run would have hung FOREVER holding that lock. The
symptom was a test suite going from 8 minutes to a 25-minute timeout. Fixed and guarded, but the
guard covers one package and three helper names; the class needs a gate.

R-577 — a guest share visitor still has no way to pick a language, and the household's setting
is the wrong default for a stranger. Deliberately left, pinned by a test, and the operator's to
decide because it is a promise the share feature makes.

.claude/rules/live-probes.md, unconditional: never send a deploy request for an app that is not
installed, not even expecting a refusal — the endpoint accepts first and validates later. Two
sessions made that mistake in two days, the second WITH a prompt line forbidding it. A prompt is
read once; a rule file is loaded every session.

admin 08e9ddbd5c docs: localisation slice 2 release B (controller v0.253.0) — R-557 progress, R-575, R-576
gates / gates (push) Successful in 25s
All 179 Hungarian error messages carry a key; zero remain. 10-localisation.md gains §10.2: the
four properties util.MsgError had to have at once and the failure each one prevents, and the
plural rule as a BUNDLE rule rather than a per-call-site flag, with the answerable sentence and
what the other option would have cost.

Two instrument defects recorded rather than tidied away, because both shapes recur:

R-576 — the parity gate has a measured blind spot. The bulk converter dropped the continuation
of multi-line concatenations, damaging 7 producers, and the gate stayed GREEN: every surviving
fragment WAS a byte-equal base-commit literal, so its question ("is this text real?") was
answered yes while the CALL had lost half its sentence. Two behaviour tests caught it. The
general form: a structural gate over the TEXT cannot see a defect in the CALL.

And the script counting what was left was case-sensitive, so it said "0 remain" while five did —
R-565's shape inside the measurement. Every "no Hungarian left" claim in this slice is now made
case-insensitively and with both controls.

R-575 — the soft memory-overcommit warning has no error to carry a key and no language where it
is built, so it renders Hungarian on an English page. Named in the code, not hidden.

Live evidence includes a mistake I made and corrected: a probe of the deploy refusal INSTALLED
vaultwarden on demo-hp (the endpoint accepts before it validates), the same mistake the previous
session recorded. Removed through the product's own path with its data; verified gone.

gates / gates (push) Successful in 21s
10-localisation.md gains §10.1: the measured numbers (1 120 base literals, not 1 141; 226
converted), the flash-as-key design and why a key must be resolved by the READER, word order
through Go's explicit argument indexes rather than a second placeholder syntax, and the parity
gate that makes "byte-identical" a measurement instead of a reading.

Two claims the plan carried that live source disproved, both about the wire, both recorded:
the country table is NOT on the wire (only codes are), and the hub does NOT always compose its
own customer mail — it falls back to the controller's event message, which is why those 31
sentences stay Hungarian until R-558. That survey is handed to R-558 as its input list.

R-566 CLOSED (four app-named page titles now carry a %s). New rows R-572 (two funcmap helpers
with no English form), R-573 (the two channel-health banners arrive as finished Hungarian),
R-574 (handler_debug.go mixes page copy with payload).

gates / gates (push) Successful in 21s
R-549 (operator ruling A): controllerStatus hardcoded 30m/1h while both
staleness checkers and hostStatus read alerting.stale_threshold. Moving the
threshold to 45m would have painted a customer amber 15 minutes before the
alarm could fire - the second definition rollup.go's header forbids. It now
reads the same value, down at 2x. Both 'checker initialized' log lines print
the threshold, which no line did before.

R-539 (ruling 3 of 2026-09-16): controller_slow_crashloop (warning,
operator-only), minted when the agent's slow_crashloop_since moves, with the
fast sibling's first-sight rule.

R-550: restore_interrupted (warning, for the household) allowlisted with a
Hungarian customer message.

Red-proofs, each seen failing then passing: the status test with the old
hardcoded numbers; the checker test with the movement branch removed; the
operator-only test with the registration removed; the household-message test
with the Hungarian entry removed (asserted on the SUBJECT - the body
legitimately repeats the raw message, which my first version of the test
mistook for a fallback).

admin 3d5c42c846 chaos night: the report headline, and the capability map
gates / gates (push) Successful in 20s
Headline, three lines. Interventions: 1 - round 6's local backup leg, whose
off-site leg then succeeded unaided; both pre-declared presses went unused.
Ready for a volunteer: still yes - nothing cost a byte of customer data, the
box healed itself every time with no human, and all 17 alarms were true, none
missing, every one delivered. The pair that hurt most: restore + hard reset,
not because the box suffered (26/26 containers back in 150 s) but because it is
the only pair where the household is left not knowing what happened.

Capability map: a new PROVEN-LIVE row for a random night of household actions
under accidents, carrying what it does NOT claim - per-app off-site restore
untested (orphaned repo by design), the dropped-event path still unmeasured
because no event coincided with any hub outage, twelve rounds is a sample not
coverage, and the household loop's 2-minute sampling means ten rounds left no
mark in it.

The unaided-recovery-journey row gets a second scope note rather than a change:
tonight did not walk it and could not have, so its PROVEN-LIVE still stands on
0.206.0 only - neither re-proven nor contradicted.

gates / gates (push) Successful in 21s
The tier-3 pause is the zero-knowledge escrow design and is untouched. What was
missing was the ASK, while the backup page promised the copy that had never run.

- VOLUNTEER-first-hour.md: a new step 6, right after the dashboard password and
  before the first app - what the code is, where, write it on PAPER, and that
  Felhom cannot get it back for them. Sections 6..12 renumbered to 7..13.
- day0-install.md A.2b: the operator step for a REBUILT box, which was missing.
  Acknowledged delete -> the hub re-issues by itself; otherwise ONE press of
  "Re-issue PBS credentials" (F-14 ruling 2026-07-13, hub/internal/web/pbsdr.go).
  This is the correction to last night's "zero presses" note.
- 07-backup-architecture.md: 6.1 records tier-3's paused state as a DESIGN, and
  2 records that the household is asked from first login.
- capability map: the first-hour row's last gap closed, with what it still does
  not claim (no volunteer has walked the ask from the written guide).
- register: R-543 CLOSED with the live measurements; R-545 filed (nothing
  un-configures an off-site target). R-511 was already closed yesterday.

admin 3f7ac8ee6e the backup promise is kept: photos deleted and returned byte-identical
gates / gates (push) Successful in 20s
The capability map's journey row now carries the half it could never finish: five
photos in, deleted the way a child would, the old route refusing and touching
nothing, the off-site restore returning them, and them opening — sha256 identical,
5 of 5, with a negative control.

Stated with it, because both are true: the bind needed ZERO operator presses (the
box registered itself and used the mail the hub sent itself), but the PBS cascade
needed ONE — the Re-issue press R-511 documents, which then succeeded because of
this morning's ep0 grant.

R-543 (P1) is the honest caveat: off-site ON by default is not off-site WORKING on
day one — a fresh box waits at „Kulcsletétre vár" until the household creates its
recovery code, and nothing asks them to, while the tier-1 row already promises that
copy. R-544 records a log line that says „escrow deleted" where the effect is
demotion to retained custody.

admin 87cb923390 ruling 3 recorded: the restart brake is blind to a slow crash loop (R-539)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 24s
It sits beside the 3-in-15-minutes budget in the host-agent design, because that
sentence and its measured blind spot belong together: four kills 20 minutes apart
were all restarted, none accumulated, and the only trace was an info event that
mails nobody. The budget itself is unchanged.

Also recorded: why Part C.2's re-issue button is correctly hidden for a customer
with no host, the venue's storage reconciliation (nvme-scratch IS /mnt/hdd_1), the
built ISO landing on demo-hp byte-identical, and my own scp/-P mistake that cost a
golden bake — including why its token-leak check reported a false hit on an empty
needle.

admin 3738dfc548 hub v0.116.0: every new customer starts WITH the off-site copy (operator ruling)
gates / gates (push) Successful in 19s
Off-site is ON by default for a new customer — shared, 100 GB soft quota prefilled,
the checkbox kept so an operator can opt a customer out. The reason is this repo's
own [FACT]: the whole-guest tiers do not carry the data drive and a Tier-1 unit has
no file leg, so with this unticked a one-drive box keeps NO copy of the household's
own files. Measured on a fresh box the same day.

The quota is prefilled because the fill warning only fires when quota_gb > 0.

Also registers controller v0.244.0's app_deploy_started / app_deploy_failed in both
allowedEventTypes and customerMessages, per the rule that the two move together.

Red-proofed: dropping the default fails the new render test.

admin dfd854474e drill 0.243.0 complete: 0 interventions, the connect e-mail proven, NOT ready for a volunteer
gates / gates (push) Successful in 21s
The automatic connect e-mail is proven with a real mailbox: the host record was
deleted at 12:22:59Z and the mail reached the customer at 12:23:00Z, one second
later, with selfbind_link_sent (host delete) on the timeline. The requirement was
two minutes. The hub refuses to delete an ONLINE host with no override, so the
record had to fall stale first — that wait is part of the proof.

Interventions: 0. Every P1 fix this drill set out to prove held on a fresh box.
The verdict is still no, for a new reason: a one-drive box with no off-site tier
keeps none of the household's own files in any backup, the page says otherwise,
and the restore that should save them makes it worse (R-537, R-538).

Teardown, three layers, stated. Customer tester-1 kept; RESET never used; nothing
on the off-site server written or removed.

- 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.

  (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.

admin d6837d98ee SPIKE R-459: the skipped MariaDB conversion is stable, and the trade it implied does not exist
gates / gates (push) Successful in 20s
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
gates / gates (push) Successful in 19s
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
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
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
gates / gates (push) Successful in 18s
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 0705942783 the badge IS proven live, and the 'stale password' finding was mine, not the box's
gates / gates (push) Successful in 16s
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.

admin 6035dfcc3a 09-update-architecture.md: the update path finally has a document, and it is a living one
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
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.

admin 56c7e373a3 SPIKE: what an app update actually does, and which other paths do it too
gates / gates (push) Successful in 18s
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.

admin db38f4c800 hub v0.111.1: the alarm stops promising a rescue that does not exist, and the arc is closed for beta
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
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.

admin 10c223bdfe DRILL R-95: the recovery route does not exist — stopped before the destructive phase
gates / gates (push) Successful in 19s
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
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
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.

admin 0476a8d8e6 SPIKE R-95: the safety net cannot be seen from the box - and that RAISES the urgency
gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
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

admin f41a1a0ad8 R-411/408/407, R-414, R-412a leg 1, R-410, R-406 CLOSED; determination + live evidence
gates / gates (push) Failing after 18s
Part 2.1's determination is the first artifact: the scratch resolver was consciously OUT OF
SCOPE for R-356, not excluded on state-only grounds - established from R-356's own commit
08eb1a6, whose tests say 'the prepared scratch still resolves ... only the DESTINATION
moves'. 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.

gates / gates (push) Failing after 17s
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.
