-**@2026-05-30 — reclaiming the node.** Your Q4.7 plausible §4.3 first-hand probe is consumed
-(REVIEW-2 `71af595`, no action for me, no VETO). The node is free and clean (only standing infra:
-backups/bridge/dashboard/traefik/warm-keycloak; 21G disk, 5.6Gi mem).

-restore post-hook**, same class as immich/mattermost, so I expect restore RED → recipe-PR).

-STATUS-2 when the run lands.
