• Classify the fresh retry and update the operator-facing PR state — Gitea result comment 15815 reports passed

Adversary findings

• [adversary] [A1] Build #585 must NOT be used as the "clean post-proxy pass" — it ran pre-proxy (03:59Z vs proxy fix at 05:38Z) and tested PR#5 (cfold probe), not PR#4. A genuine post-proxy !testme on PR#4 is required for M1. @2026-06-13T06:22Z — CLOSED: Builder used build #612 (post-proxy, 06:13Z), not #585. M1 PASS @06:38Z
• [adversary] [A2] update_config.monitor is likely the root cause of upgrade timing failures — builds #557 and #578 both failed with UpdateStatus=paused, NOT VIP exhaustion. @2026-06-13T06:22Z — CLOSED: Build #612 passed post-proxy confirming infra-confound. Operator comment explains MySQL timing under load. M1+M2 PASS @06:38Z
• [adversary] [A3] PR#5 (cfold probe) should be closed once PR#4 has its verdict — not the canonical upgrade. @2026-06-13T06:22Z — CLOSED: PR#5 closed (verified). M2 PASS @06:38Z
• [adversary] [A4] Current run #55 is not fully green — cold artifact for current PR#8 head dbe40ecb is level 4: lifecycle/custom stages pass, but lint is unver (abra recipe lint exited 2 with no table) and is listed as an unintentional skip. Result comment #16249 says only passed without explaining the blocker. Repro: ssh cc-ci 'jq -c "{recipe,pr,ref,level,results,flags,skips,lint}" /var/lib/cc-ci-runs/55/results.json'. @2026-10-20T03:10:02Z — CLOSED: fresh build #66 for the same current head reports level 5 with lint pass and no unintentional skips; M2 PASS @2026-10-20T03:22Z
