PC 1's read-back: the node reported synced while its finality replay blocked the template RPC for three minutes; the miners printed only timeouts and the watchdog faulted every card. The timeout line is the miner's heartbeat: silence clocks start over from it, the card says it waits for templates, one Activity line per episode. Recorded sequence as the test; 173 box tests.

The card watchdog judges a miner only while the node is synced; a silence fault from the node's sync is released at the synced transition and the card starts again with an Activity line; a worker silent from its start is faulted at 60 s; one Activity line per card at its first start. Known-failed test from PC 1's 04:51Z relaunch; 173 box tests.

src/merge.rs, pure: every network sink more than the merge depth ahead and none of our blocks in the network's view for 120 s. Engine polls the observer's view every 30 s while mining and runs the check after sync_decision_v2; state behind, sync_cause not merging, one error event. Known-failed test first; 172 box tests, 42 UI tests.

The mode (own | external | none) is re-decided every 5 s while the app reads or refuses another node; gone for 60 s, the app starts its own node and says so in Activity. node.mode and node.mode_reason in api/state and on the Node details. Pure extnode::step with the goes-away test first.

View.finalityWords with Ember's test (41 UI tests). extnode reads the node lane's reply shape: params compared value by value, network must match, a stub engine is refused and a fault on the app's own node. 168 box tests green.

A section between the live scene and Your card: three real screenshots
(the shipped Mine page of 0.3.14, and the next release's Overview and
Cards pages from the app in development), light and dark variants,
three lines (one click, every card tuned, the chain on your screen),
the download list repeated, and the wallet in one card.

The box's 34 red rows of 6 October classified (docs/analysis/ci-failures-2026-10-06.md section 6): 22 iterations, 12 in three real classes (instant deaths with nothing kept, a shared worktree directory, an unread dry run). remote-run.sh now: pre-flight (subcommand, manifest, -p package, --features) refuses in a second with exit 3 and a class; the last 400 lines of every run kept in /srv/builds/_log/runs; a class on every row (compile-error, link-error, test-failure, instant, no-test-matched, slot-timeout, no-dir, preflight-*); a cargo test whose filter matched no test exits 3; a per-worktree lock in checkout and run mode; every red row appended to /srv/ci-red/red.jsonl as source box. red-watch.mjs never posts a box row alone and sends one digest a day (counts per class with each class's guard); the timer runs tick. Shared group cired on the box so the runner and build append to one file. Shown in a sandbox on the box: pass, failing test, empty filter, bad package, bad feature, missing subcommand, compile error, broken manifest, two concurrent runs of one worktree.

The owner, 6 October 2026: "Im not sure about the site can we revert it but polish it? minimal, simple but everything needed
for the dopamine and emotional triggers of the gpu miner", then "cant we have a dag animation like we had before? with the
shards making up the block, then the final line and the other bits that looked really cool but brought upto date?"
Restored (a new commit, no history rewrite): site/index.html as it stood at 14da2b8, the step-view page with its hero, facts,
scene, three things to check, downloads, build, wallet, journey, economics and the ledger band; nothing from tonight's other
work is undone (the litepaper, /live, the roadmap and benchmark wording, ledger X31 to X33, the scroll-zoom fix). Where the
page named a month it now carries tonight's sentences: the proofs card reads "Live rows arrive with the public testnet. The
public testnet is weeks away: three seed nodes and the public RPC are up, and it opens when the go checklist closes."; the
journey lead reads "Six phases, four public gates ... No calendar dates: each phase closes at its gate." and its inlined
phases are the gate-worded ones. No "August 2027", no month anywhere on the page.
The scene (site/live-steps.js): the original bits, every one driven by the live feed. A real block arrives from the right
with a glow and its chain number under it; its outline is grey while pending and ember once included; as its shards are
verified or paid, particles fly in from the edges and its quarter cells fill molten; when every shard is proven the block
turns ember and the caption says how many provers were paid; a locked checkpoint takes a ring and a ripple and the dashed
"final" line sweeps in from the right to it, drawn only while finality is active (the legend no longer says "final to its
left"; the wallet card's state word "final, checkpoint 5" is the wallet's own vocabulary and stays). A proof or a lock that
lands on a block already off screen re-enters from the right as its own event, so every step is seen when it happens. The
counters gain blocks per second. The caption follows the newest block that changed step.
The miner's triggers, each one element with live or measured numbers, none invented: a network strip under the facts
(hash rate, blocks in the last ten minutes, the latest block's age ticking every second with its chain number and word,
shards proven and paid with the last ten minutes), each value flashing molten when it changes; a card picker from the bench
table with the time a card alone takes to find a block at the live hash rate (RTX 5090 127.7 MH/s at 227 W and RTX 4070
28.8 MH/s at 76 W from the 6 October Ember Tune on the three-card Windows rig, RX 9070 XT 17.8 MH/s from the 5 October eGPU
entry, Apple M5 Max 26.7 MH/s from the first live swap; the RTX 4090 and RX 7900 XTX shown as not yet measured with the
bench table linked) with the pool note; the fairness line (graphics cards only, a new program every hour, your card proves
the blocks, 80% to the miner and 20% to the provers, nothing to anyone else); the download buttons with sizes; a Discord join
line (the standing invite, recorded in docs/community/discord-hooks.md so nobody asks again); the testnet sentence.
docs/fud-ledger.md: G4, C2 and X8 each gain a status line saying the restored home page carries their sentence again; the
ledger-text check guards them on the home page again (55 sentences, 0 missing).
Measured headless over 40 s against the live feed: 19 captioned transitions, the strip reading 2.3 GH/s, 562 blocks in ten
minutes, 8 s ago, 2,970 shards paid, the picker's times 18 s (5090), 79 s (4070), 2 min (9070 XT), 86 s (M5 Max) at that
hash rate, 0.92 blocks/s; no console errors at 1440 or 390 in either theme; no horizontal overflow. Captures in
docs/plans/site-ui-3-shots/after-v2/: home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}-fold.jpg, home-{1440,390}-{dark,light}.jpg and
home-steps-1440-dark.webm (ten seconds of the scene). Checks: identity grep 0 hits on served files, link check 934 links
across 16 pages 0 broken, ledger text 55 of 55, contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, api tests 5 pass. Not deployed: the owner
sees it first.

- docs/analysis/horizon-2026-10.md section 1 rewritten as a standalone page: the project lead's three lines verbatim (fees cannot fund security for a decade; miners need to be the security; wrong constants and claims in our own text) with the recorded meaning (miners are the security always, no time bound, no stake, no outside checkpoints or committee; emission plus fees pay the miners, nobody pays upkeep; emission never decays on a schedule that assumes fees take over); the nine items with what landed tonight (proof verification in consensus da2d17ec with the switch off by default; the leave item 766e70ca; seven-window signalling 0760b844; the peer-driven unwrap class 8e2f5cbe; the receive-side version gate f1ea7a38; Ember's pause wording and activation guard b43d329, e5e1e92, e54a87b; the export-disk cap f9ad70e; the nine ledger rows plus X31 to X33); lane 8's measured verdicts (B never as class content, C the class v5 candidate); lane 5's 1 block/s verdict with the three gates for 10; the four decisions still owed
- lanes table, section 4 (lanes 5, 6, 8) and section 5 (A2 dropped) brought current
- docs/plans/ledger-decisions.md: the fud-close file (c6b0bad) now on master, since docs/fud-ledger.md already points at it, with the standing decisions section appended
- docs/analysis/block-rate-devnet2.md: lane 5's experiment from gpu-fleet b965b64, unchanged

pgrep -x git over the whole machine kept the lock whenever any git ran (the pre-push hook's own git push, another agent's build) and the checkout died with "index.lock: File exists". The fact is the lock's age. Class Q in docs/analysis/ci-failures-2026-10-06.md with the GIT_DIR leak of the previous commit.

168 non-green runs since the first workflow run were classified (docs/analysis/ci-failures-2026-10-06.md): 102 were tree checks that finish in under 25 s on the pushing machine, 40 were GitHub-side refusals nobody saw.
tools/ci/pre-push.sh is the one list of fast checks; ci.yml's site job calls it with --ci and the pre-push hook with --hook (full gate for master and release-*, structural checks for other refs; never writes into the worktree). tools/ci/export-exclude.txt lists research documents outside the public export list, pruned by identity-check.sh and by the mirror's sync.sh (self-test: an excluded path may quote the patterns, an exported one may not); polish.md and this record are its first entries, which makes master green. tools/ci/windows-paths-check.sh (colon, trailing dot or space, reserved names, over 240 characters) runs as the pre-commit hook on staged paths and in the gate. tools/ci/red-watch.mjs plus the red job on the box's runner record one line per failed master or release-* run to /srv/ci-red/red.jsonl; igneum-ci-red.timer posts each once to the updates channel. pow and sims read IGNEUM_CI_RUNNER for the box. no-foreign-tree-writes.sh no longer exits silently on its warning pipeline under pipefail.

infra/build-server/capacity: igneum-capacity.service (user build, Nice 19, SCHED_IDLE,
CPUQuota leaving 8 threads free) runs run.sh, a controller over a priority queue of jobs
that pauses (SIGSTOP) the instant a build slot or the measure hold is taken (5 s poll of
/srv/builds/_locks) and resumes after. Jobs, each with a dry-run and a 10-min smoke:
pow fuzz (continuous, seed base advances), sync-request fuzz against a throwaway pruned
node on loopback (the Horizon 28-unwrap gate, igneum-p2p-probe sync-fuzz), GHOSTDAG and
finality sweeps seeds 1 to 1,000, model.py sweeps cached, clippy+audit per recent branch.
Summaries to /srv/workers/capacity.json; the worker dashboard gains a Background lane
(collect.mjs doc.background, page renderBackground). Night battery stops and restarts the
layer. docs/plans/build-server.md section 8. igneum-pow fuzz tests and ghostdag_sim.py /
attacks.py gain a seed-base knob for the continuous sweeps.

The owner's ruling, 6 October 2026, the same as the roadmap's: the litepaper said the public benchmark with a leaderboard "is
January 2027" (For miners) and "ships in January 2027" (Questions miners ask). Both now read "The public benchmark with a
leaderboard ships with the public testnet." (the second keeps its tail: its source is public with the repository then, so you
run it on your own card and post the number). One gate the reader already knows from the roadmap's phase 5. docs/fud-ledger.md
gains X33; the 5 October answers that named the month stay as the history of the plan. The ledger page regenerated (179
entries, 0 leaks).
Checks: identity grep 0 hits on every served site file, link check 912 links across 16 pages 0 broken, ledger text 51 of 51,
contrast 32 pairs 0 under 4.5:1, orphan check 0 site headings, api tests 5 pass, no calendar month on the litepaper or the
home page.
