The off-site restore onto 9202 cannot be walked: this box never had an off-site
tier, because the re-issue fails on the endpoint token's missing Datastore.Modify
grant. Read-only listing of ep0 shows ns/tester-1/ct empty both before and after
the drill, with ns/demo-hp/ct as the positive control. Nothing on ep0 was written,
removed or pruned.
R-528 re-measured on a second, different box: all three OOM signals silent again.
R-511 records that its shipped fix is sound and inert until the grant is given.

F10 (a child deletes the photo folder) is the finding: on a one-drive box with no
off-site tier the household's own files are in NO backup — the whole-guest tiers
exclude mp8 by design and the app's file leg lives at tier 2/3. The app page still
labels tier 1 „DB + Konfig + Adatok" (R-537), and the restore reports success while
leaving Nextcloud listing five photos it cannot open, after wiping the app's own
trash which still held every byte (R-538).
F11: the claim page locks out after the SECOND wrong code (15 minutes), the alarm
fires and is true; Nextcloud does not lock out. F12: two reboots 60 s apart, all
seven stacks back in 124 s, and the supervisor did not count the boots.

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.

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.

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.

Hub v0.112.0 serves a floor above the golden with a declared MinAgent;
controller v0.239.0 reached both demo boxes by that floor in 14 s and 15 s
and updates on any backup tier. 09 §3 decisions 7 and 8, §6/§6.1; 07 §6
line; capability map row; STATUS items 15/16 done and the cadence line
corrected; CONTEXT; register: R-470/R-472/R-475 compressed to CLOSED-ITEMS
(full text at 2f5d3af), R-477..R-480 opened, R-474 reproduced a third
time. OPEN-ITEMS 431689 -> 432156 bytes, CLOSED-ITEMS 118051 -> 120598.
Evidence: documentation/audits/rulings-r472-r475-2026-09-13/.
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/.
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.

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.

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.
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.
