Every weekly off-site run uploaded successfully and then failed the job on a prune
the box's token is deliberately refused — R-89 moved off-site pruning server-side
to ep0 and box tokens stay write-only. The 2026-07-26 'two weeks' ruling was not
reversed; where it is enforced moved, and keep_last: 2 did not follow. Now 0,
which the agent's existing guard already reads as 'never prune from the box'.
Verified read-only on ep0 before changing it: both namespaces have a prune job at
03:30 keep-last 2 that has run every day since 2026-07-27 — 18 tasks, all OK, the
newest keeping exactly two. Without that check this would have traded a weekly
false alarm for unbounded growth.
A gate asserts the offsite tier carries no client-side prune. The local tier is
untouched.
configure_backup_target has two arms and only one granted. Case A creates the
storage and grants in the same breath; the Scenario-F arm ('the target already
exists') returned without granting. A box whose felhom-backup pre-dated the
install therefore pointed local_backup_target at a storage its own token could
not read — measured on BOTH demo boxes: {"data":[]} through the token while root
lists three archives. That tier was never restore-tested and nothing said so,
because an empty listing is also what a brand-new tier returns.
The reuse arm now ensures the ACL through the same guarded wrapper. Scenario F is
unviolated: the storage DEFINITION is untouched, and pveum acl modify is
idempotent. BACKUP_TARGET_ID is deliberately NOT added to PVE_STORAGES — that
list is granted a step before the target is resolved, and --acl-storages entries
are preflight-checked for existence; the comment now says so.
A gate asserts it: every arm that resolves the target must also grant on it.
Red-proved by reverting the arm.
Two channels moved off main in the same change, because either one left behind
makes the other cosmetic.
Channel 1 — the served script. webpage.yaml git-synced /scripts/ from
--branch=main every 30s and nginx served that tree, so pushing this file WAS
publishing it: within half a minute it was what every new machine downloaded and
ran as root, with no staging and no rollback but another push. The sync is now
SPLIT: the website keeps tracking main at the same cadence (a copy edit must
never need a release) and /scripts/ tracks the tag installer-v<SCRIPT_VERSION>.
PROVEN before the manifest was touched: git-sync v4.4.0 follows a tag AND
notices a MOVED one — measured on a throwaway sync against this repo,
"update required ... local:<old> remote:<new>" -> "updated successfully",
within one period. The moved-tag half is what the publish model rests on.
Channel 2 — the sixteen files fetched at run time. fetch_raw pulled from
$AGENT_REPO/raw/branch/main; it now pulls raw/tag/v$ART_AGENT_VER. That is a
correctness fix, not only a channel one (R-183): a fresh install fetched the
vouched agent BINARY while taking its unit file, sudoers and guarded wrappers
from whatever main held. Two refs, one install, nothing compared them. Their
correct ref was never SCRIPT_VERSION — they do not live in this repo.
No fallback to a branch: a vouched version whose tag is missing fails loudly
rather than quietly serving main.
Channel 3 — the URL — needed no change, recorded rather than left silent:
https://felhom.eu/scripts/felhom-host-install.sh never carried a ref, so both
producers follow the tag with no edit. No hub change, no hub version bump.
Gate 6 in hostinstall_gates.py pins all three structurally with no network, so
it stays in --fast and runs in CI. It deliberately does NOT assert "a tag exists
for the current SCRIPT_VERSION": that would go red on the very push that bumps
the version, before publishing — and publishing being separate is the ruling.
The Setup tab said 'host-install 1.19.0' while the served script was 1.22.0, and had
been wrong since 2026-07-14. Deriving the number honestly is not possible: the Option-1
command downloads felhom-host-install.sh from the website at RUN TIME and the website
git-syncs main every 30s (R-110), so no build-time value in the hub can be true. R-94(a)
offered derive-or-delete; deleted, which removes the drift class instead of automating it.
- configs.go: hostInstallVersion const, pageData.ScriptVersion field and its assignment
all removed; a NOTE in their place records why there is no constant here.
- customer_unified.html: the sentence now says the command always fetches the current
installer, and renders no version.
- hostinstall_gates.py gate 1: the third assertion INVERTS — it used to require the hub
const to equal SCRIPT_VERSION, it now asserts the hub carries no host-install version
literal at all, matched in six code shapes across every .go/.html under hub/ (comments
are deliberately not stripped: a // inside a URL literal would blind the scan).
- render_test.go: the assertion 'html contains hostInstallVersion' compared the constant
to itself and passed at ANY value — demonstrated green with the const at 9.9.9 while the
script was 1.22.0. Deleted, not replaced: there is no longer a version to assert.
- felhom-host-install.sh: COMMENT ONLY (SCRIPT_VERSION untouched) — it claimed the gate
keeps the hub copy equal, an invariant that no longer exists.
Red-proofs: restoring the const fails the rewritten gate 1 (3 shapes hit); the old
render_test assertion passes at 9.9.9.
