# STATUS — what works, what's broken, what's next

**Ready for the first real tester (Tester-2): yes. You confirmed the tunnel route and the connect mails (2026-09-30).**

**Updated 2026-09-30 (late afternoon). Both demo boxes run controller 0.283.1 and host agent 0.138.0. Hub 0.126.0. New installs get golden 0.283.1 with agent 0.138.0. No new release today.**

**Tester-2 — read only, from the hub.**
- The customer record exists and its settings are ready.
- **Tester-2's box has not registered yet.** So there are no apps and no update switch to read.
- When Tester-2 installs an app, the box updates it at night by itself, like the demo boxes.

**Decisions today:** none taken by me. The "seed test data through the database" choice was **not needed**, so it is not recorded.

**What I did, and it worked.**
- **The last six database apps are decided.** Three moved to the newer database version (rallly, outline, sparkyfitness). Each was tested on the test bench and on the scratch box, and each one's automatic undo was tested too. Three stay where they are (zipline, adventurelog, immich), because their makers use the same or an older version. **All eleven database apps are now done.**
- **More apps can update themselves at night:** 31 apps (plus nextcloud when a full copy exists), up from 28 this morning. Seven more apps got a newer version today, each tested on the bench and on the scratch box: bookstack, kimai, audiobookshelf, n8n, navidrome, grafana, komga.
- **immich is fixed and updated (afternoon).** On its first start, immich loads a big list of places into its database, 9 parts at once. That needs about 575 MB. Its database had only 512 MB. A box without swap space killed it again and again; the scratch box survived only because it has swap. Now the database gets 768 MB. Tested with swap off: a fresh install on the bench (two times) and on the scratch box, 0 kills. The held immich update is published with it, because that update loads the list again. **Cost: each immich box reserves 256 MB more** (immich already reserves about 4 GB).
- **The full-system backup now waits for app updates — seen live.** On the HP demo box it waited twice while two apps updated, then started, and it worked. The box's settings are back as before.
- **The HP demo box had no full-system backup since 29 Sept** (its disk was just too full to fit one). Today's test made a fresh one. The problem is the old known one: the box's system disk is small.
- **How current the catalog is:** 25 of 53 apps are a little behind their makers, 19 are a big version behind. The plan for which apps to test next is written.
- **Old register rows fixed.** The "up to date" badge is honest now for every app with a test record.

**Rows.** Today in total: 3 closed, 3 narrowed, 5 opened. The list went from 361 to 366 rows.

**What needs you.**
1. **Nothing to decide.** The immich memory rise follows your earlier rule for raising a limit. Tell me if you want it undone.
2. **No golden bake is due.** The golden built today matches the newest controller. The 4 October date matters only if a new controller comes out before then. The weekly bake stays around 7 October. *(Corrected 2026-09-30: the earlier line said a bake was due before 4 October. That was wrong.)*
3. **D4, the image copies:** unchanged. If you do nothing, nothing changes.
