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).

Footer partial: imprint line with the registered address and the mailbox; Report a flaw mails hello@igneum.network with the spec issues as the second route. Litepaper: Who are you names the entity that ships the software, the team is pseudonymous with no team page, the ledger and the benchmark source are public with the repository at the public testnet, the last paragraph gives the mailbox and the address. Miner: the dev fee goes to Igneum Labs LTD. Evidence (md and page): repository private until the public testnet. Trademark FILING.md: applicant Igneum Labs LTD at the DIFC address. Identity check: the ledger and fixes file join the export list; the forbidden list notes that the registered address is allowed. Site rebuilt (bench page and journey picked up the txgen log entry).

The ledger's header and submission lines, G3's status line, and the fixes file's legend, row 9, decision (b) note and section 5 record the four decisions. Two literal pattern mentions reworded so the identity check passes with both files on its export list.

igneum-prove-core carries the node's fees.rs (PgasTable, FeeParams PROTOTYPE and CALIBRATED_V1,
FeeSchedule::at); the shard input and every fixture carry the schedule and the block's DAA score; the executor
reads the set at that score, raises the base fees to its floors and meters with its intrinsic, B_p and modexp
entry, as the node's execute_segment does. The 328-byte statement is unchanged: the node's native veto pins the
schedule (a new layout would be a consensus change for every node). Exporter: schedule and daaScore from the
dump (gen.mjs writes them), per-segment switch on replay, S_p from the set. Fixtures from one simnet chain across
the switch at DAA 800: fees-switch-prototype (block 51), fees-v1-shards2 (351), fees-v1-shards3 (355); 358
segments replayed, every state root the node's. Host tests on both sides. Guest re-pinned: shard
0x2b1a81cb..., aggregator 0x474678f3...; pinned-guests-check passes.
Node fork 2b6d23ef unchanged (igneum-exec tests 11 passed). Digest for the override with
fees_v1_activation_daa 210000: ab8847da538dead1dc10e046dfaadab3c1c35928e3748810c4e050d4a886087a.
Runbook docs/plans/fee-switch-devnet.md; infra/devnet/restart-hand-nodes.sh and restart-seed.sh take the
override object (the hand nodes and the seed run 20139145 today and must move to 2b6d23ef first). One line on
the live page, spec 5.11, the testnet README, the floor analysis, the bench log and the journey.

tools/txgen/run.mjs funds generated wallets from the devnet dev-fee key and sends transfers at a steady rate through
one node (nonce tracking from the pool's pending nonce, two-strike drop verdict, pool back-pressure counted as
deferred, spend cap, clean stop, summary JSON); tools/txgen/proving-watch.mjs watches the proving layer and builds the
per-block report. Two runs through the Mac node: 2,275 sent at 2/s, 2,161 included at 1.86/s (run 1), 1,650 sent,
1,633 included at 1.71/s with no failure (run 2, fixed code). Block 72704 shard 0 (29 transfers, 5,800 pgas) proven on
PC 2 in 34 s, verified on the Mac in 0.297 s, paid 1.7623 IGN.
Block 72803 (seven skipped copies, no executed transaction) failed the native-execution veto: the exporter rebuilt the
including blocks from an export that names no block, position or skipped copy's miner, sorting skipped copies out
of their block, merging consecutive blocks of one miner, dropping empty blocks (the node counts them in the link's
block index) and guessing the zero address. blocks_of now rebuilds from the 0.3.9 export's "blocks", "block" and
"position" fields (the fork change on vendor/igneum-node-txgen branch txgen-export), keeps an old export in its
order and refuses a skipped-only block without a miner. Fixtures block-72803-skipped-copies and
block-72854-empty-block-first with the node's shard plan beside each; the fixture test now checks the cut's links,
roots, gas, pgas and counts against the node's plan (shown failing on the old 72854 cut). No change under core/.

The 13:19:41Z refusal on PC 2: fetch_jobs took igneum-jobs.json and .sig in two requests while the edge was
still serving the previous deployment for one of them. The signer wraps the verified pair into one object and
reads it back; the app fetches that object (the pair only when none is published); publish-jobs.sh writes and
mirrors all three files and verifies every folder after the deploy; tools/jobs.mjs reads the envelope.
Tests: jobs.rs signed_envelope_binds_file_and_signature, packaging/ota/test-publish-jobs.sh (24 checks).

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 fact: PC 2's exporter failed blocks 58,752 to 58,843 (and the task's 58,584 to 58,984) at
shard.rs:175, "shard 0 post-root from the witness", while three empty shards were later proven, verified and
paid. Every failing block is empty: one blue block, one reward, the pool credit, no transactions, no payouts
(igneum_exportSegments 0x0..0xe738 from the Mac node, fork 2b6d23ef). The proven block 59,507 has the same
shape and the same miner as the failing 58,927. So the difference is not block content.
The rule that differed: the planner's post-root of an empty segment. The exporter on PC 2 was a stale build
whose core predated commit d6d6153 (the assertion sits at line 175 there and at 179 since). That planner
returned root_at(end) for a segment with no transactions, which is the pre-root; the statement applied the
rewards and the pool credit, as the node does (vendor/igneum-node-036/igneum/exec/src/executor.rs,
execute_segment) and as spec 7.7 item 8 says. Left = the root after the rewards (the node's), right = the root
before them; PC 2's export log for 58,752 shows exactly that pair. Reproduced here: master's core with that one
rule put back fires the same assertion on 58,927 with left 0x7886b9cf (the node's root) and right 0xea9db302
(the pre-root). Master's core as it is reproduces 58,927 and 59,192 with the node's roots, the host's native
mode matches the fixture, and the SP1 executor runs shard 0 to post-root 0x7886b9cf.
So the prover core needs no rule change: the fix is commit d6d6153, which PC 2 received with the 10:49 and
10:52 UTC rebuilds (job-rebuild-prover-pc2-037 and 037b), after which its proofs were paid. What this commit
adds is the regression and the guard for the class:
- proving/fixtures/block-58927-empty-reward.json: the failing shape cut from the devnet (33 KB).
- proving/igneum-prove/export/tests/fixtures.rs: every fixture in proving/fixtures reproduces (block
statement, plan, every shard statement from its witness, the chain of roots and links), and the empty
segment's shard ends at the root after the rewards, never the pre-root. With the pre-d6d6153 rule put back
the test fails. The test lives in the export crate so the core's manifest, part of the guest build, stays
untouched.
- export/build.rs and host/build.rs stamp each binary with a hash of the native sources it was built from,
printed on the first line of every run, so a stale build names itself in the log instead of in a line
number (the stale-build class of 4 and 5 October).
- docs/bench-log.md: the row under the first paid proofs.
The guest is unchanged: built in one directory, this branch and master give byte-identical loadable segments
for the shard program and the aggregator, so no prover needs a rebuild for this commit. Noted on the way and
left open: the same sources built in three directories on this Mac gave two different guest ELFs, so the
program id is not yet a pure function of the sources on a native build.

publish-jobs.sh --deploy POSTs the new stamp (published_at plus 8 hex of the file's sha256) and the added id to the
relay's /wake once the live file verifies. The relay token goes in a 600-mode header file, never on the command line
or the screen. Prints "woke the apps (stamp ...)" or a one-line warning; the apps' 2-minute poll still catches it.
tools/jobs.mjs status reads relay_wake (one row per publish with the ids it added) and prints "woken +N s after the
publish" for a machine's latest job that a publish added; nothing when the table does not exist yet.

Owner's decision, 5 October 2026: the proposed testnet identity (docs/testnet/README.md) and the proposed fee floors
and prover-gas table (docs/analysis/base-fee-floor.md, spec 05 section 5.10) are adopted as proposed. The three
documents now say "adopted 5 October 2026" with the sign-off noted and the per-network rule written in: the testnet
and the mainnet carry calibrated v1 from genesis; the devnet and the simnet keep the prototype set until the
fees_v1_activation_daa height switch (fork branch release-0.3.6) moves them.
Conflicts (generated site files): index.html keeps the 0.3.5 dev-fee sentence and testnet-prep's testnet-terms card;
litepaper.html keeps the 0.3.5 two-paragraph dev-fee text and testnet-prep's MetaMask paragraph; journey.json keeps
the 0.3.5 feed (newest 40); sitemap.xml keeps /miners and /wallet. Site rebuilt with node site/build.mjs.
Also: infra/fast-time/override-60x.json carries fees_v1_activation_daa 0 (the fork's fast-time test wants every
override field); docs/plans/release-0.3.6.md (the inputs push must run from this tree before the workflow verifies
the signature; the devnet rollout of the fee floor as a height switch; the morning order).
Checks: node site/build.mjs; link-check 324 links 0 broken; check-workflow-shell 0 findings; test-inputs-signing.sh
16 of 16 with the signer built from this tree; bash -n on the four shell files; the PowerShell parse rule at the
0.3.5 baseline (3 hits, unchanged).

Conflicts resolved keeping both: engine.rs carries the sweep state (miner-eff) and the node watchdog (reliability);
the STATUS line goes through watchdog::parse_status and still feeds the sweep's rate sample; main.rs declares both
modules; bench-log.md keeps both entries. site/build.mjs keeps master's partial-injected pages and adds the /miners
bench table through the same page() with active: 'miners'; the Miners link is in site/partials/nav.html; sitemap

docs/bench-log.md: the fake-worker measurements (slow start one trip and 2.0 s restart, fake-fast guard in under

one prepare per epoch with refused retries held; app: zero-rate restart at 79.6 s and faulted at 75.4 s on the
repeat, no-status restart at 90.4 s, silent node restarted at 150.7 s and synced 7.2 s later; no double restart on
the miner's own worker restart). Two defects the harness found are named with their fork commits.
docs/fud-ledger.md and the round-4 review table: M26, M27, X21 Fixed with the commits.
engine.rs: the miner's restart note no longer hides the fault reason on the card.
tools/reliability: the harness matches the miner's stderr lines where they are printed there.

Conflicts resolved keeping both: Settings and SettingsState carry the sweep fields (miner-eff) and dev_fee /
fee_total (dev-fee); the engine's settings snapshot sets both and the DevFeeState line stays.
Decision of 4 October 2026 (evening): the Igneum Miner software takes a visible, switchable 1% dev fee, the norm
for GPU miners; the protocol stays fee-free. The miner side (--dev-fee, the 1-in-100 template counter, the audit
command) is on branch dev-fee of the node fork.
- app: settings.dev_fee (default on) passes --dev-fee 0 to igneum-miner when off; Settings shows the miner's own
"dev fee 1% (1 block in 100) to 0x..." line next to the rewards address with a switch; the engine parses the
miner's start line and its dev-fee block lines (fee_session, lifetime fee_total, an event per fee block)
- packaging/hive: h-manifest.conf, h-config.sh, h-run.sh, h-stats.sh, make-hive-package.sh (igneum-hive-<v>.tar.gz
with the Linux igneumd, igneum-miner and both GPU workers), README with the Flight Sheet, selftest.sh (bash -n,
stub binaries, the three hooks the way Hive runs them, the stats JSON parsed). Hive itself is untested
- infra/cross/build-workers-linux.sh: the NVRTC and OpenCL workers cross-compiled for Linux with zig;
proto-opencl/cl_dynamic.h gains the Linux dlopen branch (libOpenCL.so.1)
- tools/dev-fee/run.mjs: the fee-block test network (two nodes on 29900+, three CPU miners, payouts audit)
- docs/design/miner-dev-fee.md (mechanism, flag, lines, the DEV_FEE_ADDRESS placeholder and the devnet address),

Conflict resolved: publish-jobs.sh keeps master's verify command and --tries (the retrying live check) alongside the
build kind's arguments; the usage range covers the merged header.
Conflicts resolved: state.rs keeps both the sweep fields (miner-eff) and the race fields (miner-perf); bench-log.md
keeps both appended entries; publish-manifest.sh keeps master's --override implementation (8082576, the "every
height switch" rule, --verify-only, --tries, the retrying live check) and adds miner-perf's --tuning / --no-tuning
with the carry-over of consensus.override and tuning from the current manifest. One --override case, one parser.

Header: site/partials/nav.html, head.html, footer.html, injected by site/build.mjs between markers in every page (the bench template too) with the active link marked; the master mark in its black square, the wordmark, Litepaper, Live devnet, Engineering log, Evidence, GitHub and the miner button, in that order everywhere; one menu script (closes on a link, a tap outside, Escape with focus back on the button, a resize past 900 px); a skip link; one focus ring and one reduced-motion rule.
Litepaper: the hash routed by a click delegate and popstate instead of the browser's fragment jump. Root cause of the tabs fault: show() scrolled to the top of the article, never to the section; in whole-paper mode the fragment jump landed on the section and the smooth scroll then dragged the reader back to the Abstract; in one-section mode a deep link scrolled while the section was still display:none and landed on the cover. Now: every section and all 29 subsection headings reachable by URL in both modes, scroll-margin from the measured bar height (nav, plus the contents row on a phone), focus moved to the heading, a re-aim after a late font batch, mode buttons stacked in the sidebar.
Pages: homepage headline capped at 9cqw so it is two lines at 390 and 1440 (was four with "fire." alone), journey inlined by the build (no fetch, no shift), dates as "4 Oct 2026"; live page legend no longer forces 420 px of width at 390, the hash-rate unit as small mono, idle redraw at 30/s with a 1.5x backing store (0.7 to 1.2% of one core idle in Chrome for Testing, taken under load), the proving line wraps on a phone; evidence sort headings are buttons, chips carry aria-pressed, a scroll hint under 1,140 px; bench contents in a sticky scroll box, og.png?v=3; 404.html; sitemap with /evidence; vercel.json caches fonts a year and images a day.
Fonts: eight latin woff2 files in site/fonts (139 KB for all, 118 KB a typical page), preloaded first-paint faces, fallback faces with size-adjust and ascent overrides from the font tables; every page lost its render-blocking fonts.googleapis.com stylesheet and the gstatic origin.
HTML per page before to after (gzip): / 17,265 to 21,810 B; /litepaper 20,556 to 24,957; /live 15,640 to 17,777; /evidence 18,899 to 22,493; /bench 94,723 to 98,289. Third-party requests before to after: 3 to 1 (jsdelivr, light client), 1 to 0, 3 to 0, 1 to 0, 1 to 0. Lighthouse before and after is queued under the measure lock (held by reliability runs since 19:16Z, load average 258) and recorded in docs/design/site-polish-2026-10-04.md when it runs.
Checks: node site/build.mjs, tools/ci/link-check.mjs (246 links, 0 broken), identity grep, and a Chrome for Testing run over every page at 390, 768 and 1440 (no overflow, no console errors, menu, router in both modes, deep links on reload, keyboard).
