Recorded on arrival as 0.207.0, re-read from live hub_settings at the end and it is 0.208.0 — the operator acted while the session ran. The ask is therefore 0.208.0 -> 0.209.0, not 0.207.0 -> 0.209.0, and STATUS.md plus the golden evidence now say so. Caught only because the state was re-read rather than carried forward from the arrival note. A fact recorded at the start of a long session is a fact about the start of the session.
Golden 0.209.0 — baked, published, round-trip verified, NOT VOUCHED (2026-08-08)
Why this bake exists, and why it supersedes last night's. The G-1 session released controller
v0.209.0 (R-247), which made golden_currency_gate.py correctly red and refused the push —
no golden carried the newest release. The honest answer to that gate is the bake it asks for, not
--no-verify; the gate's own docstring says the cost of a trip is "one bake, which is the operation
the project wants to be routine anyway".
⚠ UPDATED at the end of the session, because the fact changed under it. On arrival the vouched
golden was 0.207.0; while this session ran, the operator vouched 0.208.0. Re-read from live
hub_settings rather than assumed — which is why the table below reads 0.208.0 → 0.209.0 and not
0.207.0 → 0.209.0.
Where it ran
The drill VM on DooPlex (/mnt/5_hdd/felhom.eu/drill/drill.qcow2, snapshot virgin) — the
accepted Tier-2 exception for bakes. Canonical §4.0 launch line, cold-booted, restored to virgin
afterwards and the snapshot list re-read. Liveness via ps -eo comm | grep -c qemu-system-x86,
never pgrep -f.
The inputs
| host | drill-pve, pve-manager/9.2.2 |
| template | debian-13-standard_13.6-1_amd64.tar.zst — listed with pveam available on the day; checksum verified on download |
| build script | felhom-agent/configs/build-golden.sh v3.0.0, clean tree at 6981450 (git status --porcelain empty) |
| controller baked | gitea.dooplex.hu/admin/felhom-controller:0.209.0, built and pushed from a clean tree at fcffaf5 |
The token never crossed a shell
scp file → file into a 0600 file, read by a runner script inside the VM.
systemctl show golden-bake -p Environment -p ExecStart | grep -c -F "$(cat /root/.gitea-token)" → 0
The 404 pre-gate, with a control
felhom-golden/0.208.0/golden.tar.zst → 200 ← the control: the URL SHAPE is right
felhom-golden/0.209.0/golden.tar.zst → 404 ← the pre-gate: nothing to overwrite

The delivered artifact saying which controller it will start — not a claim about what was built.
The vouch, awaiting the operator
MinAgent read from the golden's controller CHANGELOG.md header, not assumed:
## v0.209.0 — … — MinAgent 0.127.0.
| field | now (live hub_settings) |
after | why |
|---|---|---|---|
golden_version |
0.208.0 (vouched during this session) | 0.209.0 | the only field that moves |
agent_version |
0.127.0 | 0.127.0 | already ≥ MinAgent 0.127.0 — checked |
min_agent |
0.127.0 | 0.127.0 | equals the declared MinAgent; not above agent_version (the R-216 shape hub v0.97.0 holds) |
Hub → Configuration → Day-0 artifacts → Golden 0.209.0 → Save. The R-120 gate sits on that save and
refuses a golden older than the newest controller the fleet reports. Reversible — re-select the
previous value and Save; no package is deleted by a bake.
Teardown
pct destroy 9100 --purge · token, runner, build script and in-VM log shred -u'd, /root residue
clean · poweroff · qemu confirmed gone (0) · qemu-img snapshot -a virgin restored.
Token-leak grep on the log COMMITTED here, and a 0 is evidence only because the grep was shown to
work:
grep -c -F "<token>" bake.log → 0
grep -c -F "<token>" <copy with the token appended> → 1 ← the control; copy then shredded
What this does and does not change
Does: golden_currency_gate.py is green; the push it was blocking can proceed.
Does NOT: a fresh Day-0 install still lands on 0.208.0. The gate checks the BAKE, not the vouch — R-242's untouched half, demonstrated again here: the gate flips green on the presence of this directory, with no vouch anywhere near it.
