STATUS — phase canon (canonical sweep, make it real)

Gate: M1 CLAIMED, awaiting Adversary.

WHAT/HOW/EXPECTED/WHERE for the Adversary. Reasoning lives in JOURNAL-canon.md.

Phase summary

Make the canonical sweep actually promote canonicals end-to-end (it is currently hollow), add the mirror-sync + new-release-tag trigger + tagged-promote gate, enroll all recipes, make the timer weekly, and prove it in real CI. DoD = §5 of cc-ci-plan/plan-phase-canon-canonical-sweep.md.

Verified starting state (2026-06-17, Builder cold-checked)

• HOLLOW-SWEEP ROOT CAUSE (confirmed): the deployed nightly-sweep.timer fired 03:09 UTC and logged enrolled canonicals = []. Cause: the unit sets no CCCI_REPO; default /root/cc-ci does not exist; the import falls back to the nix-store harness whose TESTS_DIR has no tests/ → enrolled_recipes()=[]. Verify: ssh cc-ci 'journalctl -u nightly-sweep.service | grep "enrolled canonicals"'.
• A real canonical DOES exist (made by a manual run, not the timer): ssh cc-ci 'cat /var/lib/ci-warm/custom-html/canonical.json' → version 1.13.0+1.31.1, status idle, retained volume present (docker volume ls | grep warm-custom-html).
• Enroll set (authoritative) = cc-ci-plan/used-recipes.md (21 recipes). Only custom-html is currently enrolled: grep -rl 'WARM_CANONICAL = True' tests/*/recipe_meta.py.
• Timer is daily: nix/modules/nightly-sweep.nix OnCalendar = "*-*-* 03:00:00".
• Disk /: 40G free / 73% used (ssh cc-ci df -h /).

CLAIM — M1 (machinery works locally, each piece proven)

All M1 code is committed + pushed (HEAD d4cc9e4); full unit suite 295 passed; lint PASS. Live proofs ran on cc-ci from a fresh current-main checkout at /root/canon-verify (@ d4cc9e4) — the same way Drone runs CI (fresh clone + cc-ci-run runner/run_recipe_ci.py). Proof logs on cc-ci: /root/canon-verify/_proofA.log (promote), _proofB.log (reattach), _proofC.log (untagged).

WHAT is claimed → HOW to verify → EXPECTED → WHERE

M1.1 — tagged-promote gate (§2.A). should_promote_canonical(recipe, ref, overall, quick, tagged) also requires tagged; the caller computes tagged = warm_reconcile.is_released_version(recipe, head_version); promote_canonical(recipe, head_ref, version) records the TESTED head_version (a release tag), NOT a re-derived latest_version.

• HOW (unit): pytest tests/unit/test_promote.py tests/unit/test_warm_reconcile.py → all pass (incl. test_no_promote_when_untagged, test_is_released_version).
• HOW (live PROMOTE): the new code path ran on cc-ci via nightly_sweep.run_on_tag('custom-html', '1.13.0+1.31.1') (proof-A). EXPECTED+OBSERVED: /var/lib/ci-warm/custom-html/canonical.json rewritten with a FRESH ts (20260617T065027Z) and commit=df2e27339f983a25da548fc8b8d56e9af8645f83 = the EXACT commit tag 1.13.0+1.31.1 points to (git -C ~/.abra/recipes/custom-html rev-list -n1 1.13.0+1.31.1). NB this CORRECTS the prior record (samever had recorded 2b82eba, a merge-to-main commit, NOT the tag commit). Log shows ref=None (cold), CCCI_SKIP_FETCH=1 (head = the staged tag), WC5 promote-on-green-cold: (re)seed canonical custom-html @ 1.13.0+1.31.1.
• HOW (live UNTAGGED→NO PROMOTE): proof-C staged an untagged head (compose version label 1.13.1+1.31.1, confirmed NOT a release tag, image unchanged) and ran a COLD run. EXPECTED+OBSERVED: run GREEN (rc=0, level=5/5), grep -c "WC5 promote-on-green-cold" _proofC.log = 0, and canonical.json version+commit+ts identical before/after (1.13.0+1.31.1, df2e273, 20260617T065532Z) — the tagged-gate blocked the promote of a green-but-untagged state.

M1.2 — release-tag trigger + faithful mirror-sync (§2.C/§2.D).

• warm_reconcile.sweep_decision(latest_tag, canon_version) (pure, keyed on version_key, NOT commit): new tag>canon → run; ==/older → skip no-new-version; no tag → skip never-released. HOW (unit): pytest tests/unit/test_warm_reconcile.py -k sweep_decision. HOW (live SKIP): on cc-ci, custom-html latest_tag == canonical (1.13.0+1.31.1) → sweep_decision = ('skip','no-new-version (latest release 1.13.0+1.31.1 <= canonical 1.13.0+1.31.1)'). The RUN path (new tag) is exercised by proof-A's run_on_tag (a real cold run on a tag).
• scripts/recipe-mirror-sync.sh (faithful — pins explicit coopcloud upstream remote, force-syncs mirror main+TAGS to upstream, closes only merged-upstream PRs, leaves unrelated PRs, bot-token auth). HOW (live): ran on cc-ci against custom-html → git push main/tags "Everything up-to-date" (faithful no-op, no own changes), closed merged-upstream PR #2, LEFT pending PR #5 open. Diff a mirror's main before/after to confirm it equals coopcloud upstream main, nothing else changed.
• nightly_sweep.sweep() wires per-recipe: mirror_sync → fetch_recipe → sweep_decision → run_on_tag (checkout the release tag + CCCI_SKIP_FETCH=1 so head IS the tag → tagged-gate passes; REF empty → promote allowed). NO AI at runtime (pure script).

M1.3 — all recipes enrolled (§2.B). WARM_CANONICAL=True in every tests/<r>/recipe_meta.py of the 21 cc-ci-plan/used-recipes.md rows. HOW: grep -rl 'WARM_CANONICAL = True' tests/*/recipe_meta.py | wc -l → 21; python3 -c "import sys;sys.path.insert(0,'runner');from harness import canonical; print(len(canonical.enrolled_recipes()))" → 21. Fixtures (custom-html-*-bad, concurrency, regression) NOT enrolled (not in used-recipes.md).

M1.4 — hollow-sweep root-cause fix. nix/modules/nightly-sweep.nix sets CCCI_REPO=/etc/cc-ci, cds there, and execs $CCCI_REPO/runner/nightly_sweep.py (a checkout WITH tests/), replacing the nix-store runner copy (no tests/ → enrolled_recipes()=[] → the hollow no-op). Live confirmation that the deployed timer now enrolls all 21 is part of M2 (needs the M2.1 deploy: git -C /etc/cc-ci pull + nixos-rebuild). HOW (code): read the module.

M1.5 — weekly timer (§2.F). OnCalendar = "Sun *-*-* 03:00:00", Persistent=true. HOW (code): read the module; deployed-timer check is M2.
