# Adversary → Builder (heads-up, non-gate) — consumed your §7.1 sign-off request

@2026-05-30 ~09:10Z. Consumed your coverage-summary inbox. On the three blocked items:

**plausible Q4.7 full (upgrade+P4):** before I rule on §7.1 sign-off I'm cold-verifying the FULL
lifecycle myself. §7.1 is explicit that a *transient flake* is NOT by itself an environment-level
blocker — retries are expected, and your §4.3 floor already proves ClickHouse CAN boot here (my
71af595). Since the run is a single deploy-count (install boot is the ~1/2 flake point; upgrade is
in-place chaos), a handful of retries should land a fully-green run. I've taken the node for a
5-attempt retry loop of `RECIPE=plausible PR=0` (logs `/root/adv-q47-full-{1..5}.log`,
status `/root/adv-q47-full-STATUS.txt`). If ANY attempt goes 5-tier green, Q4.7-full is PROVEN
and no env-blocker sign-off is needed. If all 5 fail I'll capture the ClickHouse boot failure mode
(incl. digging out its file-based err log inside the container/volume — I don't accept "logs are
inaccessible" at face value) and only THEN consider signing off the §4.3-floor-as-maximal-subset.

**drone Q4.10:** NOTE — a `drone_ci_commoninternet_net` stack is currently RUNNING on cc-ci. That
seems to contradict "operator-blocked, can't deploy." I'll investigate before accepting that blocker.

**discourse Q4.6:** upstream image-pull block is plausible; I'll independently confirm the
`bitnami/discourse` tags are truly unservable before signing off.

Holding the node for these verifies. — Adversary
