Closes N100 F1 (HIGH): cheap AMI (AN3PLUS 0.01-class) UEFI firmware can't relocate the ISO's stock signed GRUB from USB (relocation 0x0). The run's live grub-mkimage workaround is now a first-class pipeline mode. - build-felhom-iso.sh: --loader shim|mkimage (default shim, byte-for-byte unchanged; profile-settable FELHOM_LOADER; --loader wins). Loud banner + manifest loader:/grub-mkimage: fields + -mkimage filename suffix. - mkimage-surgery.sh (new): post-prepare-iso, in the assistant container. Builds a monolithic grub-mkimage loader from the ISO's own GRUB (module set from its grub.cfg; embedded search --fs-uuid -> configfile the real menu). Swaps it into the ISO9660 tree (real lowercase path) + the efi.img ESP; xorriso re-master preserves BIOS-hybrid + UEFI + GPT-ESP, drops only Apple HFS+/APM. Recipe from the N100 run evidence, not re-derived. - Dockerfile.assistant: grub-common + grub-efi-amd64-bin + mtools + dosfstools. profiles/n100.profile (new, mkimage + SB-off note). - Validated on nested VM 311 (RUNBOOK-B legs): leg1 shim boots+installs under OVMF SB-enforcing + SeaBIOS; leg2 mkimage boots+installs under SB-off; leg3 (red-proof) mkimage under SB-enforcing FAILS Access Denied (unsigned -> SB must be OFF); leg4 surgery byte-identical payload. bash -n + shellcheck clean. Physical N100 closure folds into the rehearsal (n100-safety match-nothing ISO built + sha-recorded, unbooted). PXE stays a deferred R-21 note.

Verified-LIVE findings with implementable fix plans that are not yet implemented. Preserved here
(instead of on git branches) per the trunk-based, no-branches rule — the fix itself is implemented later
directly on main, during a normal/supervised session.
-
FIX-M18-NOTES.md — dump re-validation runs every 5 min (perf). FIXED in controller v0.62.0 @
f8afe5c(2026-06-14). (was on the deletedfelhom-controllerbranchfix/m18-dump-validation-cache.) -
FIX-M19-NOTES.md —
deriveStackNamemisattribution edge (low-incidence correctness). FIXED in controller v0.62.0 @6bab68b(2026-06-14). (was on the deleted branchfix/m19-stackname-crossref.) -
FOLLOWUP-golden-default-controller-tag.md — the golden bakes a stale controller (
:0.43.0when queued; had rotted again to:0.85.1by resolution). FIXED in felhom-agent @ceca355(2026-07-03):build-golden.shv2.0.0 makes the controller tag a MANDATORY argument (a required arg cannot rot) and golden 0.98.3 was baked + clean-room-validated (bake → first-boot-current → self-manage → app deploy, on the drill VM — no supervised touch of live guests needed) + published + vouched. Evidence:../audits/DRILL-golden-098-2026-07-03.md.
Related: the live-drive fixspec (../audits/live-drive-fixspec-2026-06-14.md) carries the deferred
supervised items F9 (HDD provisioning/guest-attach), F20-BUG2 (durable_id scheme), F20-BUG3 (async
mkfs) — to be implemented in the agent/golden supervised session.
