# Golden 0.296.0 — bake + publish + vouch, 2026-10-05 (late afternoon)

Procedure: `documentation/runbooks/RUNBOOK-manual-build.md` §4.0 and §4.1 steps 1–5, in the drill VM on DooPlex.

| | Previous (`../golden-0.295.0-2026-10-05/`) | This bake |
|---|---|---|
| `build-golden.sh` | v3.2.0 (sha256 `645b3b659cba…`) | same file, unchanged (agent repo `configs/build-golden.sh`, sha256 `645b3b659cba…`) |
| Controller | `felhom-controller:0.295.0` | **`felhom-controller:0.296.0`** (MinAgent 0.131.0, unchanged) |
| Docker engine | the operator-approved set `os-docker-20261004-142842` | same pinned set (still the only approved release — read from the hub's System page) |
| Guest packages | template | template — `GOLDEN_GUEST_PKGS` EMPTY (no guest release approved) |

## Launch

- Drill VM reverted to `virgin` (no qemu running before), cold-booted per §4.0 at 10:16:31 UTC; `pveversion` = `pve-manager/9.2.2`.
- `pveam update` → `update successful`; template `debian-13-standard_13.6-1_amd64.tar.zst`, `checksum verified`.
- `/root/bake-run.sh` reads the token from the file; launched as transient unit `golden-bake` at 10:17:29 UTC.
- Token copied file → file (`scp`). `systemctl show golden-bake -p Environment -p ExecStart | grep -c -F <token>` = **0**
  (control with the token appended = **1**).

## Pass markers (from `bake.log`)

No `excluding` and no `FATAL` in the log (grep count 0).

## Round trip

## Secrets

Saved-log leak grep for the literal token: **0**; positive control (a throwaway copy with the token appended): **1**,
copy shredded.

## Vouch (step 5)

`POST /configuration/artifacts` (operator Basic auth + `X-Felhom-Operator`, hub v0.135.0): agent **0.146.1**, golden
**0.296.0**, `min_agent` **0.131.0**, wrapper sha empty → `303 flash=artifacts_set`; hub log `Artifact manifest set:
agent=0.146.1 golden=0.296.0 min_agent="0.131.0" … bundle_sha="42333e96…"` (`../../audits/hub-safety-2026-10-05/partH/vouch.txt`).
Per-customer controller floors 0.296.0 for demo-hp, demo-felhom, tester-1; the global floor unchanged (Tester 2 not moved).

## Teardown

`pct destroy 9100 --purge`; `shred -u` of the token, the runner script and the log in the VM (log copied off first);
`poweroff`; qemu gone (`ps -eo comm | grep -c qemu-system-x86` = 0); `qemu-img snapshot -a virgin`. Host: nothing
provisioned.
