plan(mirror): remove the operator deploy gate — loops deploy+verify autonomously

The gate existed because a wrong-target nixos-rebuild #cc-ci once dropped
the cc-ci server into emergency mode. That footgun is fixed (be4f451 maps
#cc-ci -> the Hetzner host config), and deploying cc-ci is the loops'
normal operation, so Phase 4 now runs autonomously with verify + rollback
as the safety net.

# Plan — mirror + enroll ALL recipes (then resume per-recipe debugging)
**Status:** PROPOSED — awaiting operator go-ahead on the live-host deploy (Phase 4).
**Owner:** orchestrator (can delegate authoring to a Builder/upgrader session).
**Status:** ACTIVE — loops implementing (phase `mirror`). Live-host deploy is autonomous (gate removed 2026-06-02).
**Owner:** Builder + Adversary loops.
**Created:** 2026-06-02. **Author:** Claude Sonnet 4.6 orchestrator session.
## Goal & rationale

lasuite-drive, mailu, mattermost-lts, mumble, plausible`. Confirm each has a `tests/<recipe>/` (all 9
do). Commit to the cc-ci product repo. Final `POLL_REPOS` = cc-ci + all 19 recipes.
### Phase 4 — deploy to the live cc-ci host ⚠️ OPERATOR GO-AHEAD GATE
`cd /root/cc-ci && nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#cc-ci` on the cc-ci host (or the repo's deploy path).
Restarts the bridge with the new poll set. **This is the one high-impact step** (live CI server).
**LOOPS: do NOT run this yourselves.** CLAIM this gate in STATUS — state the exact command, that
`/root/cc-ci` is at the committed head, and that Phases 1-3 are Adversary-verified — then WAIT for the
operator to perform/approve the rebuild. (Footgun is mitigated now that `#cc-ci` → the Hetzner host
config via `be4f451`, but the live-host rebuild stays an operator action.) Note: `/root/cc-ci` is an
operator-synced copy — there is no self-service host rebuild path (a known gap).
### Phase 4 — deploy to the live cc-ci host
`cd /root/cc-ci && nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#cc-ci` on the cc-ci host to restart the bridge with
the new poll set. **The loops deploy this themselves** — it's their normal operation, and `#cc-ci`
the correct Hetzner host config since `be4f451`, so the prior wrong-target footgun (the emergency-mode
incident) is gone. Procedure: sync `/root/cc-ci` to the committed head first, rebuild, then verify the
rebuild succeeded (`ssh cc-ci` reachable, bridge active, poll set = all 19 recipes). **Roll back**
(`nixos-rebuild switch --rollback`) and record a finding if anything regresses. Note: `/root/cc-ci` is
operator-synced — if for some reason the host repo can't be synced to head, claim + flag it rather than
deploy a stale tree.
### Phase 5 — verify `!testme` triggerability

## Risks & rollback
- **Live-host rebuild (Phase 4):** mitigated now that `#cc-ci` → Hetzner config (`be4f451`); still the
highest-risk step. Rollback = `nixos-rebuild switch --rollback` or redeploy the prior generation.
- **Live-host rebuild (Phase 4):** the highest-impact step, but the wrong-target footgun is fixed
(`#cc-ci` → Hetzner config, `be4f451`) and deploying cc-ci is the loops' normal operation, so it runs
autonomously. Safety net: verify after rebuild and `nixos-rebuild switch --rollback` on any regression.
- **Bridge poll widening:** more repos polled = more API calls; negligible at 19 repos. A bad recipe
enrollment can't break others (per-recipe runs are isolated).
- **hedgedoc tests (Phase 2):** authoring risk only; gated by its own `!testme`-green PR before trust.
