No standing VETO (2x '## VETO' headings are historical: one annotated CLEARED, one is the clearing
record). STATUS:481 CLAIMED is the superseded historical M2 claim. No action available; loop stopped.

Stop condition re-checked from a cold read: STATUS ## DONE, M1+M2 fresh PASS, no standing
VETO (line 553 header is annotated CLEARED), no inbox either direction, Adversary loop
closed out at #49. Loop stays stopped; no DoD item re-run.
Sentinel re-probed this wake: GITEA_PASSWORD still hashes to 3fcea78925015fc9 (unrotated).
A-redfix-1 / B-redfix-8 remain OPEN/HIGH, operator-rotation-only, gating nothing.

Adversary confirmed all three claims and failed to refute "strip userinfo is safe" three ways:
no push through /etc/cc-ci origin; secrets submodule anonymously fetchable so submodule update
survives; nothing auto-pulls the checkout (/root/.git-credentials inert, no helper wired).
Folded those three into STATUS step 3 so the operator sees why the command is safe. The submodule
angle was an inference on my part, not a probe -- the Adversary actually tested it. Recorded in
JOURNAL.
Incidental (not a finding): cc-ci-secrets.git is public but SOPS-encrypted ciphertext.
STATUS/JOURNAL text only. No code. ## DONE stands; M1+M2 PASS stand; no gate reopens.
Adversary wake #45 established A-redfix-1 and B-redfix-8 are the same credential. Re-derived
every claim first-hand before writing it (the A-redfix-2 lesson), incl. value identity:
.git/config userinfo and .testenv GITEA_PASSWORD both hash to 3fcea78925015fc9; control
sha256("")=e3b0c44298fc1c14 rules out the empty-input probe artifact.
Rotation does NOT scrub /etc/cc-ci/.git/config (644 root:root, manual clone per
configuration.nix:7, not nix-generated). Remedy is now a 3-step operator procedure that
strips the userinfo rather than re-embedding the rotated password (re-embedding would
recreate the exposure). Verified the strip is safe: anonymous ls-remote succeeds rc=0.
Blast radius recorded: GITEA_PASSWORD is consumed only by bootstrap-drone-oauth.sh;
recipe-mirror-sync.sh uses an OAuth token. No reason to delay rotation.
STATUS text only. No code. ## DONE stands; M1+M2 PASS stand; no gate reopens.
Independently re-verified every leg against the node before editing (I adopted
A-redfix-2's probes wholesale at 8276ecd and inherited its error; not repeating that).
- Delete both 'no re-trigger' probes: they grep the app name, but the timer is
named nightly-sweep, so they return empty while a timer drives it weekly.
Sound probe greps the callee: git grep warm_reconcile -- runner/ nix/
- Replace 'recovery is manual' / 'heals on reboot' with the weekly DOWN/UP
oscillation, and record that it is SILENT (roll_warm_infra discards the rc;
the raise is upstream of every write_alert).
- Re-anchor the merge precondition: 'slot clean at merge time' -> 'never deploy
07fc6d4'. A git merge executes nothing; b5f2b10 ships enrollment + fix together,
so the precondition is self-maintaining.
- Line refs pinned to b5f2b10 coordinates (were main's, two lines off).
- BACKLOG B-redfix-5: severity corrected, remedy sketch extended to rc propagation.
Not armed and not self-arming: origin/main (the tree the sweep runs) has
WARM_CANONICAL = False. Nothing reopens; DONE stands, no VETO, b5f2b10 unchanged.
Inbox consumed.

Both claims re-derived independently before editing; both of mine were wrong.
A-redfix-2: "no code path redeploys it" is FALSE. abra.undeploy() leaves the app
.env, so the next reconcile() takes the fresh-deploy branch (:471-479), which
redeploys and never calls warmsnap. Self-healing is blocked by the absence of a
re-trigger (warm-keycloak.service: Type=oneshot, RemainAfterExit=true, no timer,
no Restart=), so it heals on reboot/nixos-rebuild and RE-WEDGES on the next due
upgrade while the foreign snapshot/meta.json remains. Operator remediation is to
DELETE the foreign snapshot/, not to redeploy keycloak. Failure presents as an
intermittent flake, not a permanent outage.
A-redfix-3: /srv/cc-ci is a symlink to /srv/cc-ci-orch, so the two main.go paths
are the same inode (3254604, links=1). The "present in both clones" premise is
void and proves nothing about the file's origin (still unexplained; inert).
Docs-only. No DoD item, gate, or verdict affected: ## DONE stands, M1 + M2 PASS
stand, merge target b5f2b10 unchanged, no VETO. The B-redfix-5 merge precondition
is unchanged and still correct.
Adversary (75f6655) independently re-derived the upgrade-path site and CONFIRMED the widening of B-redfix-5:
"my wake-#41 framing was too narrow; do not revert". Nothing reverted.
It supplied three facts I had not established. Re-derived each from source rather than accepting them:
- reconcile()'s only try is :520-525; sole caller main():556 does not catch -> a raise at :514/:536 escapes
to SystemExit with keycloak already undeployed. Nothing redeploys it; recovery is MANUAL.
- WARM_CANONICAL = True at 07fc6d4 -> the pre-fix canonical seed is a real arming action, not hypothetical.
- WARM_DOMAINS == {keycloak}; keycloak is the only stateful:True SPECS entry (traefik is False) -> blast
radius is exactly one warm unit.
Folded the two operator-actionable ones into STATUS (does-not-self-heal; bounded to keycloak) and tightened
the pre-fix-seed line from hypothetical to fact. The bound also stops the precondition reading as a
fleet-wide hazard.
No DoD item touched. M1+M2 PASS stand, ## DONE stands, no VETO. Docs-only.

Acting on the Adversary's wake-#41 verdict (3131e39), which CONFIRMED the merge guidance but left a merge
precondition only in REVIEW-redfix.md — Adversary-owned, and not what an operator reads before merging.
Moved it into STATUS (operator-facing, mine), re-deriving every leg from source at b5f2b10 rather than
trusting the verdict.
- STATUS: MERGE PRECONDITION for b5f2b10, with the exact ssh check + expected output, and the corrected
reason it is unreachable today (live slot has no meta.json — NOT "F-redfix-4 is closed").
- Sharpening the Adversary missed: the new guard is reached from snapshot() at warm_reconcile.py:514 as
well as restore() at :536. Line :512-514 is undeploy -> wait_undeployed -> snapshot, also outside the
try/except, and it is on the NORMAL upgrade path — it fires on every stateful auto-upgrade, not only on
rollback. B-redfix-5 as filed named only the rollback site.
- BACKLOG + DEFERRED: widen B-redfix-5 to both sites (a) :512-514 and (b) :534-536; correct the claim that
F-redfix-4 "supplied the only reachable trigger and that is now closed" — b5f2b10 ADDS a raise path
(_assert_slot_not_foreign at warmsnap.py:158 and :209).
Verified: guard present in both callers at b5f2b10; reconciler structure at :512-514 / :520-525 / :534-537;
cc-ci live slot holds last_good only (no snapshot/, no meta.json, no canon-* slot). Probe with a seeded
foreign meta raises on both paths; absent meta and self-consistent meta both pass.
No DoD item touched. M1+M2 PASS stand, ## DONE stands, no VETO. Docs-only.

Wake #39 (2a61c09) carried no VETO/finding/inbox and nothing to advance, but it did surface a
false-close hazard in STATUS's own operator instructions: "A different digest => rotated => close
B-redfix-8" licensed closing an open HIGH public-credential exposure on a broken probe.
/srv/cc-ci/.testenv lives on the ORCHESTRATOR, not cc-ci. Run over `ssh cc-ci` the sentinel command
hashes empty input and prints sha256("")[:16] = e3b0c44298fc1c14 — a different digest with no rotation.
STATUS now states where to run the probe, names e3b0c44298fc1c14 as the empty-input tell that must NOT
close the item, and disambiguates the three conflated digests: 3fcea78925015fc9 = sha256(credential
value) = the only rotation sentinel; 1994fd8d… = sha256(whole served blob), immutable; e3b0c44298fc1c14
= sha256(empty), a broken probe. Also records the exposure is now confirmed at VALUE level (the live
push-capable password appears verbatim in the public body), stronger than prior blob-equality.
Verified independently before writing: printf '' | sha256sum => e3b0c442…; ssh cc-ci ls .testenv =>
absent; orchestrator sentinel => 3fcea78925015fc9 (still UNROTATED).
Terminal condition unchanged: ## DONE, M1+M2 PASS, no VETO. B-redfix-8 stays OPEN/HIGH/operator-only.

Reboot no-op. Terminal condition re-verified from artifacts (DONE @00:18Z, M1+M2 PASS, every VETO
string is the one CLEARED F-redfix-4, inboxes empty, no gate claimed). Did not re-probe B-redfix-8 —
duplicate measurement, not evidence. It stays OPEN, HIGH, operator-rotation-only. Marking this the
terminal journal entry so future reboots stop without re-journaling.

Wake #23 no-op re-check. Phase remains ## DONE (M1+M2 Adversary PASS, no standing VETO, no inbox);
nothing to build. Re-derived B-redfix-8 from the artifact instead of inheriting it:
1. Still public: anonymous urlopen of raw@2ad38f5 -> HTTP 200, 33408 bytes; git cat-file -s on the same
blob -> 33408. Served size == object size, so the fetch is the blob. Independently re-confirms the
corrected byte count from 251de42 (33080 was the transcription slip).
2. NEW, and the point of this commit: still the LIVE credential, not just a reachable file. Every prior
record measured public reachability (HTTP 200) and then asserted "unrotated" -- two different claims,
only the first ever checked. Direct test: the current GITEA_PASSWORD in /srv/cc-ci/.testenv is present
verbatim in the 2ad38f5 blob. The bytes the public internet serves ARE the password the harness
authenticates with today. The exposure is NOT inert. "Unrotated" had been true-by-repetition.
Recorded a sha256[:16] commitment (3fcea78925015fc9) so the operator can confirm rotation later without
either loop reprinting the secret; a different digest means rotation landed and 2ad38f5 is inert.
Also: my first draft of that operator re-check command was broken twice -- unterminated quote-escaping and
sha256() handed a str instead of bytes. It would have raised SyntaxError for the operator at precisely the
moment they were checking whether a live HIGH leak was closed. Caught by applying "no should-work" to
documented commands, not just executed ones; fixed, then round-tripped by extracting the line back out of
the file and eval-ing that. Prints the expected digest.
Not actionable by me: rotation is Class-A1 (operator-only), history excision needs --force (forbidden), and
a publicly-served value must be presumed captured regardless. B-redfix-8 stays OPEN on operator rotation.
DONE stands, no VETO.

The Adversary (re-confirmation #22) caught that both my records of the B-redfix-8
public-exposure probe asserted "HTTP 200, 33080 bytes" while the blob is 33408. I
re-measured rather than accepting the correction on trust:
git cat-file -s 2ad38f5:machine-docs/BACKLOG-redfix.md -> 33408
bare anonymous urllib GET of raw@2ad38f5 -> 200, 33408, b'# BACKLOG'
They agree, and must: a raw blob at a fixed sha is immutable, so served size ==
object size. 33080 was a transcription slip (digit permutation) inside a claim I had
prefaced with "I reproduced it myself" — true about the act, false about the evidence.
Load-bearing, not cosmetic: B-redfix-8 is what an operator reads before rotating a
live, world-readable, push-capable credential. Someone re-running the probe, getting
33408 against a documented 33080, could conclude they'd hit an error page and stand
down from a real HIGH leak.
Fixed both Builder-owned sites (BACKLOG B-redfix-8, JOURNAL ~1261) and added the
`git cat-file -s` cross-check to the backlog entry so the next reader can distinguish
a real leak from an error page without re-deriving it. Journal wake #23 records the
process defect: a number that was cited rather than measured — the same shape the
Adversary logged against its own wake-#20 narrative.
Re-confirmed this wake: secret STILL served publicly (HTTP 200, anonymous), STILL
unrotated. No DoD item touched. DONE stands, no VETO. B-redfix-8 remains OPEN on
operator rotation, which is the only remediation (history scrub needs --force).

Independently verified (bare python urllib GET, no creds): the mirror is public and commit 2ad38f5
serves the cleartext autonomic-bot password at HTTP 200 to unauthenticated clients. HEAD/main and the
redaction commit d07873a fetch clean publicly — only the historical commit still serves it. Mount-ns
containment (the old LOW rationale) is moot once the same secret is on the open web.
Redaction at HEAD stops propagation but cannot un-publish a public value; a --force history rewrite is
both forbidden here and insufficient. ROTATION of autonomic-bot's Gitea password by the operator is
now URGENT and the only real remediation (Class-A1 external input, §4.4).
Consumed the Adversary's BUILDER-INBOX (git rm = ack). No verdict change: leak is orthogonal to the
canon-sweep DoD, clearable only externally, so no VETO. M1/M2 PASS, DONE stands.
Read review(redfix) @67e86de: no VETO, M1/M2 PASS intact, remedy cold-verified
from a fresh clone of origin/main. Nothing claimed of me.
Records the Adversary's self-caught grep contamination (searching history for a
secret by a 6-char prefix that our own finding/inbox/journal text now contains
tests our prose, not history; re-test against the full 51-char value: 0 commits,
never leaked) and its acceptance of my symlink correction.
Residual unchanged: key on disk unrotated -- operator's call, not either loop's.
Did not edit the Adversary-owned findings section. Terminal condition holds.

Journal: /srv/cc-ci/cc-ci and /srv/cc-ci-orch/cc-ci are the same directory
(.gitignore inode 3252849 shared; rev-parse --show-toplevel agrees), as are the
cc-ci-adv pair, which carries no config.json. So the single .gitignore line
closes the exposure on every path; no second remediation pending.
Escalated to operator: rotate the Tinfoil key if it ever hit a transcript/log --
gitignore prevents a future commit, it cannot un-expose an already-seen key.
Phase redfix remains DONE. F-redfix-2 stays open; only the Adversary closes it.
