The app's install clears the jobs folder on a PC, so a run job whose kit was fetched by an earlier fetch job finds
nothing after an update and fails in seconds (5 October 2026, 21:49Z, the AMD kit; bench-log 4df339f). Rule: a run
playbook that reaches a path under the jobs folder other than its own tests the kit is there before its first use,
and the fetch is republished under a new id after any app update.
tools/ci/kit-path-check.sh reads every *.ps1 under relay/playbooks/ and tools/. A kit root is a path derived from
the jobs folder (`$jobs = Split-Path $env:IGNEUM_JOB_DIR` then `Join-Path $jobs '<fetch id>'`, the race-5090.ps1
shape) or one carrying a literal `jobs\` (the amd-card-test.ps1 shape); every path built from it belongs to that kit.
A presence check (Test-Path, [IO.File]::Exists, [IO.Directory]::Exists, Get-Item or Get-ChildItem with -ErrorAction)
on the root or anything under it covers the whole kit. A use before that line fails with "kit path used before a
presence check: republish the fetch after any app update", as does a literal jobs\ path in a command with no check.
The job's own folder ($env:IGNEUM_JOB_DIR) is not a kit path.
Fixtures: kit-path-ok.ps1 (both shapes, checked; a sibling pack file covered by the worker's check) and
kit-path-unchecked.ps1 (the worker run before its check, a literal never checked); --self-test asserts the lines.
Wired into ci.yml after the bash-body step, and into publish-jobs.sh add --kind run beside the other two checks;
test-publish-jobs.sh gains the refusal (34 passed, 0 failed). The current tree: race-5090.ps1 is the one playbook
with a kit, checked before use. README-ship.md: the rule.

Twice on 5 October 2026 a PowerShell job script carried a bash body inside a string, a quote was lost on the way
through PowerShell, and bash refused the body: pc1-cpu-prove.ps1 (first version) reported exit 0 having done
nothing, the 0.3.10 installer job failed in 4 s. tools/amd-prove/check-job-bash.sh covered only its own here-string.
tools/ci/bash-body-check.sh reads every *.ps1 under relay/playbooks/ and tools/, finds each bash body however it is
handed over (bash -c "...", bash -lc '...', bash -c $var, a + concatenation in parentheses, the Start-Process argument
list, a here-string written to a file that is later run with bash), unescapes it the way PowerShell would (backtick
escapes and "" in double-quoted strings, '' in single-quoted strings, here-strings verbatim; $var left as-is, a $(...)
subexpression replaced by ${PS_SUBEXPR}), and runs bash -n on it. One line per body with the file line of the error.
A body it sees but cannot read is "unextractable body" and fails too: a skip would be a hole in the class check.
bash 3.2 compatible; python3 for the extractor.
--self-test runs three fixtures under tools/ci/fixtures/: the correct shapes (8 bodies, must pass), the lost quotes
(the awk apostrophe, a dropped closing quote in a literal and in a variable; must fail with the line), and three
unreadable bodies (must fail). Wired into ci.yml next to the copied-sources check, self-test first. The current tree:
7 inline bodies in 3 playbooks, all parse. packaging/README-ship.md: the job-script rule (body to a file, bash <file>).

Fed by /api/explorer from the observer's tables. Latest blocks (hash, number, DAA, blue score, miner, txs, proof
records, time); a block's header, parents, children, mergeset, coinbase outputs, EVM transactions, shards, checkpoint
and certificate; an address's blocks, what they earned, vote keys and balance (eth_getBalance when EXPLORER_EVM_RPC is
set). Same tokens as live.html. vercel.json rewrites /block/:id and /address/:addr; the footer links the explorer; the
link checker skips template literals and resolves /api/<name> to its function. node tools/site-serve.mjs previews the
site with the functions in-process.

From 18:23Z both Windows workers (CUDA on PC 1 and PC 2, OpenCL on PC 1 after the 18:34Z node restart)
refused every pack for epoch 34 with "the epoch seed bytes do not give the pack's IGNEUM_SEEDW_INIT", and
the miner and the app restarted them every 5 to 60 s until 18:44Z and beyond. The packs were correct.
The generator retries a rejected candidate with seed || k_le32 (attempt_words); epoch 34's attempt 0 was
rejected (246 of 16384 final register values saturated, limit 163) and attempt 1 accepted, so the pack
carried attempt 1's words while pf_load (proto-cuda/nvrtc/packfile.h) derived the expected words from
the bare seed. Both workers also matched jobs to pairs by those bare-seed words, so even a loaded pack
of a retried program would have answered "epoch seed mismatch" on every job.
The rule, in one place per language:
- packfile.h: pf_program_words(bytes, attempt); pf_load reads IGNEUM_PROGRAM_ATTEMPT and checks the
attempt's words; the refusal says "program pack and its seeds disagree: IGNEUM_SEEDW_INIT is not
attempt N of the epoch seed ..." in plain words.
- worker.cpp and proto-opencl/host.c: a job belongs to a pair when the seed hex the node sent is the
pair's (pairIs); the compiled-in placeholder pack keeps the word comparison.
- igneum-pow/src/packcheck.rs: verify_pack_texts / verify_pack_dir, the same rule in Rust; the miner
checks every pack it writes with it before a worker sees it (vendor/igneum-node pack-loop branch).
Tests pin the attempt vectors of epoch 34 on both sides (one vector, two implementations), that
epoch 34 is attempt 1 and epoch 33 attempt 0, a known-good pack of a later attempt, a known-mismatched
(out of date) pack, and self-contradicting packs.
- proto-cuda/nvrtc/emu/packfile-test.c (+ .sh, in CI): pf_load on a known-good attempt-1 pack, the
checked-in attempt-0 pack, and the known-mismatched bare-words pack.
The app (app/igneum-app):
- watchdog.rs: PACK_OUT_OF_DATE_CODE 44, PackRebuilds (at most 3 pack exports per epoch, then the card
shows the reason), pack_refusal (the worker's "error 0 pack" line and the miner's "PACK OUT OF DATE"
line), pack_epoch_of; tests on the incident lines, known-good and known-mismatched.
- engine.rs: exit 44 exports the pack again before the restart instead of a blind restart, the strip
says "program pack out of date, rebuilding", the card and the log name the condition; at the cap the
card is marked failed with the reason and tries again in 10 minutes.
The relay (relay/lib/parse.mjs): PACK_MISMATCH; the card reads "pack mismatch, rebuilding (N refusals
in the tail, M restarts)" in `node tools/console.mjs machines` instead of a bare restart count; tests
on the PC 2 tail of 18:27Z and a healthy tail.

The one long page becomes a rail with six sections, a thin top bar and the status strip under it; the setup
screens and the key sheet stay. Mine: one big start/stop, the numbers, one row per GPU with its switch, hash
rate, temperature and power. Prove: the switch with plain words, the counts, the verifier, the pinned ids.
Rewards: the address with one Copy, the key backup card, another address. Node: the plain lines, the consensus
digest, the next switch. Updates: the version, the jobs. Settings: one switch or slider per setting with one line
of help. Every function that existed is placed, none removed.
Engine (three small additions, each with a unit test): node.consensus_digest from the node's own line,
node.consensus_switches from the override file, proving.program_id and aggregator_id from the host's --mode id.
Hosts: the window minimum is 900 x 600 on both. UI tests: view.test.mjs (10) joins notices and update-card in CI.
Proof: docs/plans/miner-ui-2.md and the 19 screenshots under docs/plans/miner-ui-2/, taken from a build of this
tree running on its own port against the devnet.

docs/security/keys.md: every key the project depends on (the folder, the gh
keyring, the Vercel env of three projects, the GitHub secrets) with where it
lives, what it unlocks, the blast radius lost and leaked, who rotates it and
the rotation status, written from the files and the scripts that read them.
No value, no private fingerprint. Section 4: the second OTA signing key kept
offline, the app change (a key list plus revocation in the manifest), 0.3.9
as the carrier, and the emergency path if the one key leaks today (a manifest
signed with a new key is useless to 0.3.x apps; the mitigation in order).
tools/keys/backup.sh: ~/Desktop/igneum-keys-<date>.dmg, AES-256, hdiutil's
own prompt (never argv, history or a file), the folder minus build-slots,
dlsite-dir and pytools/, plus a README; attached read-only, every file
compared by sha256, listed, detached. --dry-run lists. restore.sh: --check
compares the image against the live folder without printing values, --to
copies back with 0600/0644 and 0700. test-backup.sh: the end-to-end test on a
scratch folder with a throwaway passphrase, 8 steps, passed.
tools/ci/no-secrets-check.sh, in ci.yml: no tracked file named like a key of
~/.config/igneum, no 64-hex value assigned to a token/key/secret name outside
tests and the allowlist (the OTA public key, the published Hardhat and Anvil
accounts); a --self-test fires on a known-bad tree first. 776 files, 0 hits.
Also: ~/.config/igneum, vercel/ and txgen/ are 0700 now (were 0755).

Downloads: packaging/ota/publish-public.sh publishes the current installers, the HiveOS package and the two signed
manifests into dl/public/ with no token in any URL, writes the four /public/ aliases as vercel.json rewrites and an
unsigned index for the site; publish-manifest.sh --public and ship-app.mjs --public run it on every release (dry run
and self-test cover it). Nothing removed from the token folders.
Site: the miner and wallet buttons link the public aliases and show the version and size from the index, read at
build time (site/downloads.json is the offline snapshot); TESTNET_OPEN in build.mjs drops the "Public testnet: not yet
open" line on the go; the HiveOS Flight Sheet install line on the miner page; /faucet page.
HiveOS: igneum-hive-0.3.8.tar.gz from the 0.3.8 node (2b6d23ef, PC build job) and the zig-built Linux workers.
Faucet: site/api/faucet.mjs (10 IGN per address and per IP per day, Neon table faucet_grants, EIP-1559 transfer signed
by site/lib/eth.mjs with no dependencies: keccak, RLP, secp256k1 with RFC 6979), FAUCET_KEY and FAUCET_RPC from the
Vercel env only; 15 unit tests with a fake database and node, run in CI.

On 5 October 2026 the Mac's host (shard program id 0x0559759b...) rejected every
proof from PC 2's host (0x05db1aca...). Both were built from the same guest
sources: host/build.rs compiled the guests on each machine and the ELF depends
on where it is built (cargo's -C metadata for a path crate includes the checkout
path; a worktree on the same Mac gave a third id, 0x0dfade07...). The node's
verifier also spent 114 s to 138 s per proof in the prover client and both key
setups before a 0.1 s to 0.4 s verify.
- elf/: both guest ELFs, their verifying keys and manifest.json (sha256, ids);
host/src/pinned.rs embeds and checks them at every start; the prove modes
refuse when SP1's setup does not derive the manifest's id
- --mode verify: LightProver with the pinned key, no prover client, no key
setup; prints the proof's own program id next to ours ("IS NOT OURS")
- --mode id; igneum-prove-pin and pin-guests.sh to re-pin; build.rs builds a
guest only under IGNEUM_BUILD_GUESTS=1
- tools/ci/pinned-guests-check.sh: elf/ must match its manifest, no script
builds a guest outside pin-guests.sh; make-package.sh and build-dmg.sh print
the pinned ids
- unit tests on the pinned set; bench-log entry with the three ids, the cause
and the timing: 127.0 s wall per verify before, 1.8 s to 2.4 s after
- rollout order in proving/README.md: every prover and verifier moves together

The strip under the header stays; the card is the first sight of an update. The mark with a progress ring, "Igneum
Ember 0.3.7", one line (is available, is downloading with the percent, is ready to install, Installing. The app
restarts itself., did not install with the one-line cause and Try again), up to three lines of release notes from the
manifest with the rest behind "What changed", the size, Install now and Later. Escape and the backdrop are Later.
Reduced motion is honoured.
Rules (UpdateCard, pure, app/igneum-app/ui/update-card.test.mjs): the card never opens while a job runs, in the
engine's first 60 s, while the key sheet is up or while the app quits; it waits and comes once the block lifts.
Later hides this version at this stage and leaves the strip; the card comes back for a newer version, or when the
download is ready and automatic updates are off (with them on it installs by itself). An open card follows its
update through downloading, ready, installing and failed; installing and failed never open a card by themselves.
?update=<kind>[&auto=0][&card=1] and ?uptime= on the page show every state without an engine. CI runs the new test
file next to notices.test.mjs.

GET /wake?since=<stamp> is public (the apps hold no token) and rate limited (30 a minute per IP). It holds up to
45 s, re-reading the stamp every 2 s, and answers {stamp, at, added, changed, held_ms} the moment the stored stamp
differs from since, else the unchanged stamp at the deadline. POST /r/<token>/wake {stamp, added} (the relay's
auth, also x-relay-token or x-igneum-key on /wake) records a stamp; one row per stamp in relay_wake, created by the
first POST. maxDuration 60 s for api/wake.mjs in vercel.json. api/relay.mjs is untouched.
The handler lives in lib/wake.mjs with its dependencies injected; relay/test/wake.test.mjs drives it with a fake
database, a fake clock and a fake sleep (the hold, the change, the deadline, the rate limit, the hold cap, auth, a
database error). CI's site job runs it with the other relay tests.

One notice at a time, the most important first (app/igneum-app/ui/app.js, Notices; pure, unit tested):
0 update installing, urgent or failed 1 job failed 2 clock 3 job running
4 update available, downloading, ready, waiting for permission, manual 5 job done 6 updated
Lower notices wait their turn. Every notice has a close control; closing hides that notice's key until the
state moves on (a new status, version or job id).
States and their rules:
update available "Igneum Miner X is available." Install now, Later. Key update:X:pending.
update downloading "Downloading Igneum Miner X: 43%." (no percent when unknown), progress bar; same key as
available and checking, so Later hides the whole download until it is ready.
update checking "Checking Igneum Miner X." (the engine's staging step).
update ready "Igneum Miner X is ready. It installs by itself at a quiet moment." (auto on) or just
"... is ready." Install now, Later. Key update:X:ready.
update waiting Windows, nobody answered the administrator prompt: "... is waiting for permission. It
installs the next time someone is at this PC. Mining continues."
update manual "... is downloaded. Open it and drag the app over the old one." Open the download.
update installing "Installing Igneum Miner X. The app restarts itself. Mining continues until then."
(on a Mac, where the engine quits at once: "The app restarts itself in a moment.")
Also while the engine says "installing now" after Install now.
update urgent the engine's consensus-deadline text, ember, downloading percent when it downloads.
update failed "The update to X failed." plus one line of cause and Try again; rolled back:
"Igneum Miner X did not stay up and was rolled back." A dev build with no manifest
configured shows nothing (Settings still says it).
updated "Updated to Igneum Miner X from Y." Gone 60 s after the new version started.
job running "Job: <title> running, N min. <Stage>." with the last RESULT line underneath.
job done "Job: <title> done after N min. Report uploaded." Gone after 5 minutes.
job failed "Job: <title> failed after N min, exit C. Report not uploaded." plus the first error
line (BUILD FAILED / error / failed / panic among the result lines, else the summary).
Stays until closed. Timeout and aborted are "hit its time cap" and "was stopped".
clock as before: the engine's words, Sync clock, the manual hint; on the setup screens only
(the node card carries it on the dashboard). Jobs show on the dashboard only.
Layout: the strip reserves no height while empty; when a notice appears or goes, main's top moves once with a
150 ms transition (none under prefers-reduced-motion). Existing tokens only, nothing newer than 2022 CSS.
Screenshots: ?update=<state> as before, ?job=running|done|failed added (packaging/ota/README.md).
Test: node --test app/igneum-app/ui/notices.test.mjs (ordering, dismissed keys, wording, the 5-minute and
60-second timers); added to the CI site job. Built once with cargo (include_str) and checked against the
ui-mock scenarios and a scratch engine instance (IGNEUM_APP_DATA in a temp dir, fake worker).

- docs/analysis/base-fee-floor.md: the base-fee floors (100 gwei per gas, 10,000 gwei per pgas), B_p 120,000 and
S_p 30,000 pgas, the calibrated v1 pgas table (intrinsic 300, modexp 10 + 1 per 10 bytes) from the measured 44
cycles per EVM gas and 9 cycles per pgas, with the arithmetic and a stated price assumption; spec 05 section 5.10.
The parameters are implemented on the node fork branch testnet-params (vendor, not in this repository).
- docs/testnet/README.md: igneum-testnet-1 (chain id 4462, ports 268xx, frozen genesis 2026-10-05T00:00:00Z with
its message and hash, mainnet finality window, every switch from genesis, no override file) and the reset policy.
Every value proposed, for the morning sign-off.
- docs/plans/history-rewrite.md: G14, the exact git-filter-repo pass, the dry run on a throwaway mirror clone (0
identity hits, 0 secrets, every stamp +0000, 312 commits), what breaks and the order for the morning.
- G13: app/igneum-app/src/inputs.rs and igneum-ota-sign sign-inputs / verify-inputs; push-inputs.sh signs
payload-inputs.json with the OTA key and pins the node commit (packaging/windows/node-source.pin);
windows.yml verifies the signature with the embedded key, the zip, every file and the pin before building and
uploads the verified record; fetch-ci-artifacts.sh signs the update manifest only with --sign-manifest <run-id>
after re-verifying that run's inputs. test-inputs-signing.sh (16 cases) and tools/ci/check-workflow-shell.mjs.
- site: testnet terms on the download section, wallet.html (wallet_addEthereumChain, chain ids 4462/4463, IGN, 18
decimals), the litepaper's app paragraph (MetaMask and the coming Igneum Wallet, no hardware wallet) and the
miner fee sentence (no protocol fee; optional 1% in the miner software, off with one flag). node site/build.mjs
and the link check pass.

windows.yml: parse job (every .ps1 through the Windows PowerShell 5.1 parser with a negative fixture, PSScriptAnalyzer
as warnings, parenthesis check of every .bat/.cmd with a negative fixture), build job (engine on the MSVC target,
window host through BUILD-APP.bat as it is, payload through make-payload.sh in Git Bash, installer through
build-installer.ps1, smoke run of both exes, launcher DRY_RUN, three artifacts for 90 days).
push-inputs.sh publishes payload-inputs.zip (node, miner, workers, NVRTC DLLs) to the downloads host from the Mac;
fetch-ci-artifacts.sh pulls the green run's installer and payload back into the downloads folder.
Host: --version and --help, version.h shared with host.rc. Launcher: DRY_RUN=1 prints the plan and starts nothing.

GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/ci.yml) on push and pull_request with three jobs on the free runners:
igneum-pow `cargo test --release` and the igneum-census build; the two Python simulators' --quick modes under a
120-second timeout; the site build, an internal link check of site/*.html (tools/ci/link-check.mjs) and a gh-free
identity grep of the public export list (tools/ci/identity-check.sh over tools/ci/forbidden-strings.txt: machine
names, LAN and overlay addresses, home paths, local time zones, the log-intake key pattern; never a key or a name).
The node fork is too big for CI today and the workflow says so.
sim/finality_v2.py --quick is now a genuine smoke run (one day or hour per scenario, one partition and one eclipse
setting): 149 s at nice 19 on a loaded Mac, was 745 s. sim/difficulty/sim.py gains --quick (up50 and warmup-hard,
kaspa and igneum controllers, 36 s). One bench-log time-zone label reworded so the identity grep passes.
