gates / gates (push) Failing after 16s
R-341 check taken, and the golden-currency bypass declared
Two gates blocked the R-331 hub push. One is FIXED, one is BYPASSED, and the
difference is stated rather than blurred.

FIXED -- due-checks (R-341, 5 days overdue). The +7d measurement was TAKEN on
ep0 rather than deferred again. Precondition passed: proxy still MainPID 551655,
ps -o lstart= still 2026-08-18 09:51:04, NRestarts=0, so this is the same proxy
generation as t0 (anchor is ps, not ActiveEnterTimestamp, which reads 03:54:54Z
here -- R-346's trap).

Result: fd = 17. Not 17 more -- seventeen TOTAL, exactly the documented
baseline, against 405 at the first check. Socket histogram: one LISTEN, ESTAB 0,
CLOSE-WAIT 0.

The verdict is UNANSWERABLE, not "the upgrade fixed it". R-341 asks whether the
PBS 4.2.5-1 upgrade changed the fd slope; inside this interval we removed the
leak OURSELVES (R-344, agent 0.130.0, now live on both boxes). A slope of ~0
measures our fix, not the upgrade, and reading it the other way would credit a
changelog that was read in advance and found to contain no such mechanism. The
perturbation pre-registered for this window was Phase C at ~3%; the actual
perturbation was the removal of the entire phenomenon. Row closed as moot.

What it DOES establish is worth more than the original question: twelve days
after the R-344 fix, same proxy generation, no restart to hide behind, ep0 sits
at baseline with zero established connections. R-336's ~323-day runway concern
retires with it.

BYPASSED -- golden-currency. Controller v0.224.0 and v0.225.0 are released and
the newest golden bake carries 0.223.0, so a machine installed right now gets
neither. The gate is RIGHT. This push therefore uses `git push --no-verify`,
declared here, in hub/CHANGELOG.md, in REPORT.md and on R-242.

A BYPASS, not a waiver: the gate offers a waiver only for a release that
DELIBERATELY needs no golden, and these need one. The operator was asked and
ruled bypass-now-bake-later, on the ground that neither fix bites a day-0 box --
R-330 is a nightly false alarm about apps a new box has not installed yet, R-331
is a hub display over backups a new box has not taken yet -- and both arrive by
self-update. That ground is recorded because it is what to re-check: it does NOT
extend to a release changing first-boot behaviour.

OWED: bake a golden carrying 0.225.0 and vouch it (RUNBOOK-manual-build.md 4.1,
three-field change, MinAgent 0.129.0). Fourth bypass of this gate, and the gap
is now two releases wide rather than one.

documentation/backlog/

OPEN-ITEMS.md is the register of open work and the file to read first — it holds only what is open, one row per item, every row with a state and an owner. ROADMAP.md is the full history and reasoning behind the R-n IDs, including shipped and killed items; an ID is minted there, and a new instance of an existing item attaches to that ID rather than getting its own.

The rest of this folder: 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 deleted felhom-controller branch fix/m18-dump-validation-cache.)

  • FIX-M19-NOTES.md — deriveStackName misattribution edge (low-incidence correctness). FIXED in controller v0.62.0 @ 6bab68b (2026-06-14). (was on the deleted branch fix/m19-stackname-crossref.)

  • FOLLOWUP-golden-default-controller-tag.md — the golden bakes a stale controller (:0.43.0 when queued; had rotted again to :0.85.1 by resolution). FIXED in felhom-agent @ ceca355 (2026-07-03): build-golden.sh v2.0.0 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.
