Three verdicts, kept separate because collapsing them is how this assumption survived a week. (a) The material IS retained. host_escrow_superseded id 11 is the first retained row in fleet history to carry identity_blob (572 B), byte-identical to the pre-supersession row (sha256 a10032341c8584ed...). (b) The retained material DOES open the old store. Unsealed with the old recovery code it yielded a password byte-identical to the pre-change one, and restored three planted files byte-identical from a store the box itself could no longer open - including a Hungarian accented filename verified as raw bytes. Negative control ran first and failed closed. (c) The customer has NO route, and is misinformed. ListSupersededEscrow has zero production callers; the recovery path selects FROM host_escrow. Asked with the code that had just worked by hand, the product answered "the recovery code did not open the sealed bundle". A valid code for retained history is reported as a bad code - the R-224 class again. R-304, rank 1. Both installer faults were watched happening first, so installer-v1.27.0 is now published (tag + both webpage.yaml refs). Pre-fix: the box came up on controller 0.98.3 against a vouched 0.213.0, below the floor and below the version carrying the recovery screen; and our own uninstall left dnsmasq on 0.0.0.0:53 so our own next install refused. R-297 and R-300 CLOSED. Also filed R-305 (the dnsmasq fix fires once per machine - the leftover returns on the second reinstall, proven), R-306 (--preflight-only writes state it says it does not), R-307 (a live abandon countdown on demo-felhom, firing 2026-08-24 - operator decision), R-308 (stored controller password stale), R-309 (the day-0 runbook's publication claim has been false since R-110), R-310 (two edges). Ceiling R-303 -> R-310. Capability map moved: the retention claim is now marked operator-only. Phase A logs did not survive the intermediate revert; recorded.
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.
