R-195: a customer with no machine ever bound does not alarm (hub v0.92.0) + R-193/R-192 spike
Part 4 (ships): `david` — a prospective customer with hosts=0, host_deletions=0,
reports=0 — e-mailed an expected_dbdump_missed ERROR at 03:00 UTC three mornings
running. The existing down-skip could never cover it: it reads the staleness
checker's state, which is seeded from a query over the `reports` table, so a
customer that never reported has no state at all and GetState() returns "" rather
than "down". store.HasEverBoundHost (hosts row OR host_deletions tombstone) is
consulted once per customer at the top of the deadline loop. The discriminator is
"was a host EVER bound", never "has a report arrived" — a box installed and never
heard from is a real fault and keeps alarming. Fail-OPEN on a read error. Red-proof
observed: removing the guard fails with `got [expected_dbdump_missed]`, verbatim the
event david sent.

Parts 0-3 (spike, NO production code for R-193/R-192):
audits/SPIKE-offsite-credential-recovery-2026-08-04.md establishes that the one-shot
provider password is the RECOVERABLE secret and the restic repository password is the
irreplaceable one — and that a guest rebuild mints a fresh one, orphaning the previous
off-site history. Measured without touching a box, by comparing
host_escrow.restic_pw_sha256 against host_escrow_superseded: BOTH demo boxes changed
(demo-hp 15 snapshots / 40.9 MB, demo-felhom 36 snapshots / 1.14 GB). demo-felhom's
"lucky" 76-second recovery restored delivery and not the repository, silently, for 13h.
ReissueCredentials does NOT rotate the restic password (R-39's record and two hub
comments are wrong -> R-196); candidate (b) is not implementable against a
zero-knowledge escrow; candidate (a) already exists as F3 and is wired to the wrong
event. Ends in ranked options and an unanswered question for the operator.

R-195 SHIPPED; R-196 + R-197 filed; R-192 + R-193 updated, neither closed.

Felhom — Documentation

Felhom is a managed home-server service for Hungarian households, built on a three-component model over Proxmox:

  • Hub — operator backend on k3s (hub.felhom.eu). Repo: felhom.eu/hub/.
  • Host agent — one per Proxmox host; operator-tier; owns all Proxmox interaction. Repo: felhom-agent/.
  • In-guest controller — one per customer LXC; Docker-only; manages the customer's apps. Repo: felhom-controller/.

This directory is the central, code-verified documentation home for all three components plus the platform and the security-audit record.

Sections

Controller (in-guest) — controller/

The Docker-only app-domain controller. Full per-area docs grounded in current source (v0.59.0). → controller/README.md: module map, deploy & stack lifecycle, backup architecture, storage/monitoring/metrics, auth/hub/sync/integrations.

Host agent & platform — architecture/, proxmox-platform.md

The operator-tier agent and the Proxmox platform.

Hub (operator backend) — architecture/05

Security audits & remediation — audits/

Spike & test findings — tests/

Per-slice spike/validation findings (phases 05, slices 710). See tests/.

Conventions

  • Code-verified, not memory-derived. Architectural claims here are checked against the actual current source; if a claim can't be verified it is omitted and flagged, not guessed.
  • Per-repo operational working files (CLAUDE.md, CONTEXT.md, CHANGELOG.md, BUGHUNT.md, REPORT.md, TASK.md) live in their own repos — they are operational, not published docs.
  • Authoritative versions at last refresh: controller v0.59.0, agent v0.29.1, hub v0.11.0.
