R-117 row → SHIPPED + PROVEN-LIVE (agent v0.117.0), with the full validation in audits/R117-v0117-2026-07-30.md. Both dead states detected on real hardware through the shipped predicate: RETURN raw 8:32 /dev/sdc | bind 8:16 shutdown → stale-device, usable false IN-PLACE both 252:11 emergency_ro, raw unit active → filesystem-aborted, usable false healthy → live 340-497us per call. No block I/O proven by strace (only /proc/self/mountinfo, 0 statfs) — the Part 1 CLAUDE.md fence applied to its own first consumer. No regression through the real pipeline: the live backup-target drive reads bound_under_parent=True via GET /disks with the controller's own credential, with 32 gate lines in 3 min as the positive observable and zero spurious transitions. The ruling asked for in §2.2 is recorded in full and flagged for overrule: Aborted must NOT self-heal. A re-bind lands on the same dead superblock and the call site runs every 20s, so repairing would be an infinite silent retry that masks the state. It surfaces instead. No operator decision was taken quietly — the reasoning is that it routes an already-broken state into the existing gate, event types and Hungarian copy, so no new concept reaches the customer. R-121 filed: a box's installed agent can sit releases behind the vouched one and nothing notices. demo-hp ran 0.113.0 against a vouched 0.116.0 through the whole R-116/R-117 arc. Confirmed at source that R-120's gate cannot catch it — it compares goldenVer against NewestReportedControllerVersion(), i.e. golden-artifact vs fleet-CONTROLLER. MinAgent is protective, not an alarm, and 0.113.0 equalled the floor. Fourth instance of the drift family. Also filed: R-117g (an aborted filesystem is never cleared automatically by design, so it alarms until a human acts, with no guided recovery) and R-117h (StablePathForRaw hardcodes the parent, so the repair path cannot be exercised on hardware without writing into a live customer guest's namespace).
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 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.
