 Next-cut list (not consensus, not in 0.3.11 unless a one-file app change with tests): ota-k2 (branch ota-k2, commit c722579e, "OTA: the second signing key (K2) with revocation": manifest.rs, ota.rs, jobrun.rs, jobs.rs, inputs.rs, ota-sign.rs, engine.rs, the publish scripts, tools/keys, docs/security/keys.md section 4; ships signed with K1; K2's public half is empty until the project lead runs tools/keys/keygen-k2.sh), rig-install (branch rig-install dd632c1, done) with two follow-ups that belong with 0.3.11 if the proving half ships then (a rig that cannot prove defeats the point), else 0.3.12: (i) the signed public manifest names no Linux package, so the installer verifies the HiveOS tarball through the unsigned downloads sidecar behind a flag; fix = `publish-public.sh --hive` adds a `platforms.linux` entry and re-signs (the apps ignore the extra key); (ii) the published Linux package carries no prover binaries and no key-hash / sign-record miner, so the rig's prover unit idles in "setup"; fix = a Linux prover build (sp1 host, pinned guests) in the cross-build set and the package; pool-v0 (its own service, no app change), repro-bench; per-day dataset reuse in the CUDA and OpenCL workers (a Day object split out of Pair: cache freed after the build, dataset kept across prepares of the same day; the Metal worker already does this; first item after the publish, for 0.3.12; until then the integrated tier mines v3 with a restart per epoch); the rig miners' `--exit-on-seed-change` path (exit 42, re-export on restart) replaced by prepare-ahead before any epoch shorter than an hour can be drawn (layer 9 precondition, consequences C20); fork-side pack-loop 05ef0fa3 is merged into the v3 node branch because v3 touches the same miner paths.

 21:53. The 0.3.11 suite job is published: build-20261005-215219 to PC 2 (fork 79bd8e10, main b105a55; linux build 30 min, tests 35 min: kaspa-consensus-core, igneum-exec, kaspa-pow, kaspa-consensus, igneum-miner, kaspa-p2p-flows, igneum-app); PC 2 is on 0.3.10 with its 5090 back. The worktree freeze is lifted for the node agent (the run-2 summary commit, then the cache merge). The proving agent's resume fix waits on a test run behind the Mac's held lock slots.
 
 21:55. The 0.3.10 rollout: both PCs mine on 0.3.10 with the rebuilt workers (PC 2 120.6 MH/s at 21:54:33Z, PC 1 141.3); the hand nodes (21:49:38Z, 21:49:50Z) and the seed (21:50:15Z) on 21d4c73c, digest 1f4b4425 everywhere; not yet on 0.3.10: the US laptop 37ba0461 (installer downloaded 21:40:52Z, app not back after 13 min; nothing to drive from here) and Sam's Mac (quit since 20:47Z). Open on PC 2: the prover fails with "CudaClientError: Connect(PermissionDenied)" since the restart (three shards 21:49:56 to 21:50:32Z); the likely cause is the sp1-gpu-server socket handling of the aggregation-cost jobs; the proving agent owns it and publishes a fix after the suite job (PC 2 is the suite job's until it closes). The ca2-v3 tip is 63dabb2 (run-2 summary and doc, the G6 job id recorded).

Per the gate rule the publish stops here until the suites are green: job 2 of 3 (kaspa-consensus alone) is published now; job 3 of 3 (the other five crates) follows; the flake itself goes on the next-cut list (make mine_on_all deterministic under parallel load).
