The old pairing/delivery scenarios expected a non-zero exit on an
unbound 204 poll — the one-poll-per-invocation design v1.21.0 (R-33)
deliberately removed; against the current script they would hang on a
real sleep. Now: a PATH-faked sleep counts the waits and flips the poll
to 200 after 3 cycles, so one scenario proves the whole v1.21.0 shape
in a single invocation (register -> in-script 204 waits -> delivery ->
host-install -> done-flag, exit 0), plus a 410 crash-window scenario
(still exits non-zero on purpose). Runaway guard: fake sleep kills the
loop after 25 calls. Assistant image gains python3 (the bootstrap's
JSON parsing needs it; PVE ships it on the real box) — the harness runs
in that image.

A generic ISO carries NO customer secret. The box registers itself at the hub
as an unclaimed appliance; the operator binds it to a customer; the hub delivers
the customer-id + retrieval passphrase ONCE; day-0 completes via the slice-A path.
Hub (v0.62.0):
- store/appliance.go: appliance_registrations keyed by (uuid, mac_set) — MAC set
is the tiebreaker (duplicate SMBIOS UUIDs); token stored as sha256 only.
Idempotent register (sticky-discard), atomic one-shot delivery, bind/discard.
- api/appliance.go: POST /appliance/register (the one unauth endpoint, per-IP
rate-limited, 256-bit token); GET /appliance/poll (404 no-oracle / 204 unbound
/ 200 deliver-once / 410 delivered). Passphrase read live, never logged.
- web/appliances.go: Hosts-page "Unclaimed appliances" section + BIND (customer
picker, host count display-only) + DISCARD; SSH host-key fingerprints; events.
- Red-proofs: one-shot delivery + register idempotency (both proven red);
404-no-oracle, sticky-discard, bind staging, render. Green + confirm gate.
Scripts (v1.19.0):
- felhom-bootstrap.sh: ONE unit, TWO modes. Direct (env has customer/passphrase)
= slice-A path, byte-identical, only branched around. Pairing (generic) =
register + poll (RestartSec=30 is the poll timer); on delivery write the env
0600 and fall through to direct. Secrets + token shredded on success.
- build-felhom-iso.sh --pairing: generic secret-free ISO, -generic filename,
manifest mode=pairing. profiles/generic.profile (new).
- test/bootstrap-modes.sh: Scenario D (direct = zero appliance calls) + pairing
register/poll + delivery handoff — all green in a debian container.
