5 October 2026, PC 2 on 0.3.5: the prover probe's inline script (double quotes, a path with a space) reached bash
mangled and the app said proving needed the WSL2 setup while /opt/igneum held the host. Now the probe, run_tool, the
setup launch, igneum-prove-verify (probe and run; the wslpath round trip dropped) and jobrun's six inline scripts
write a UTF-8, LF, no-BOM file under %LOCALAPPDATA%\igneum\wsl and run wsl -d <distro> -- bash [-l] '<file>' '<arg>'...
with every word single-quoted, placed raw on the command line; arguments reach the script as $1, $2. Unit tests pin
that the line never carries a double quote or a newline and that the file has LF endings and no BOM.
The four helpers (detect::run_timeout, jobrun::run_capture, jobrun::run_streamed, procs::spawn) already set
CREATE_NO_WINDOW; the direct .output()/.spawn() sites did not. 5 October 2026: a console window on both PCs.
Josh, 5 October 2026: "why is it taking so long for pc2 and pc1s tasks to spin up?". The PCs have no inbound ports
and one miner is off the LAN, so one thread per app now long-polls the relay's public /wake with the last stamp
(GET <url>?since=<stamp>, held up to 45 s there). A changed stamp sends Event::Wake and the engine fetches the jobs
file at once (signature check unchanged); a wake during a fetch in flight fetches again right after it. The first
reply only seeds the stamp. Backoff 5, 15, then 60 s while the relay is unreachable, a 10 s floor between requests,
a full hold when the relay has no stamp yet: never a busy loop. One log line per wake, one when it falls back, one
on recovery. IGNEUM_APP_JOBS_WAKE_URL overrides the URL (set and empty: no waker).
CHECK_EVERY_S 600 -> 120: the poll is the fallback now; the first poll stays 40 to 60 s after start. An unchanged
file is no longer logged on every poll. Remote jobs off stops the waker too.
Unit tests: the stamp logic (seed, same, changed, empty), the backoff sequence and the recovery flag, the floor,
the URL and query. cargo test -p igneum-app: 60 + 22 pass; cargo build --release -p igneum-app: finished.

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.
docs/plans/release-0.3.6.md: "Instant jobs" section with the design, the expected latency and a TODO row per machine
for the measured number once 0.3.6 is live. packaging/ota/README.md: the 10-minute poll is history.

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.

Spec 7.7 item 4: a node without a verifier relays proof records and never includes them. On 5 October no app node ran one.
1. src/verifier.rs decides once per node start and engine.rs passes it to the igneumd spawn. macOS and Linux: igneum-prove-host
next to the engine's binaries. Windows: the new igneum-prove-verify.exe (src/bin/prove-verify.rs, a bin target of this crate,
shipped by make-payload.sh) is set only when its --probe finds a host inside WSL2; it rewrites --proof with wslpath -a,
runs the host in the order of src/wslhost.rs and returns its exit code, 2 when there is no host. Trust mode is never the
default: the setting proof_verify_trust (Settings, "devnet only") sets IGNEUM_PROOF_VERIFY=trust only when no verifier was
found; changing it restarts the node. After the WSL2 setup runs, the prover thread asks for one node restart.
2. The prover's WSL2 probe looks at the payload's wsl2/bin, ~/igneum-prove/proving/igneum-prove/target/release (what
setup-wsl.sh builds), ~/igneum-prove/target/release and /opt/igneum, in that order (one list in src/wslhost.rs, shared
with the wrapper); the tile's message names every path it looked at.
3. The prover thread reads igneum_getProvingStatus().verifier every 30 s, proving on or off; /api/state carries
proving.verifier, verifier_mode, verifier_set, verifier_reason, verifier_note and the pool counts; the tile has a
verifier row and says when this node relays proofs but does not verify them.
Tests: cargo test -p igneum-app, 89 passed. The wrapper cross-compiles with --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu on the Mac.

Fork release-0.3.6 final tip 2b6d23ef = a11455e7 (testnet-params merged, the fee height switch) + cf369022 (the
release dev-fee address 0x7F45d7d7272e57639BeBb739A60B05bB2CD4C126, docs/design/miner-dev-fee.md updated here) +
the miner-latency merge, which landed only after the miner suite (15 passed), the 3-node fast-time run (243 blocks,
0 rejected, 0 red, sinks agree, switched p50 46 to 52 ms) and the dev-fee harness (8 of 8 fee blocks on chain,
control at 0) passed on the merged tree.

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).

The first PC build (job build-20261005-075300) failed in 52 s: the node's crates depend on ../../../../igneum-pow,
which the zip did not carry, and the engine embeds brand/igneum-coin-1024.png, which the staged brand/ lacked.

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).

s8-steady.mjs: two nodes, one honest vmine miner at 1 block/s, no flood,
RSS and cache-build count every 60 s, vmmap -summary at 0, 500, 1,000 and
1,500 blocks. Both builds ran 1,500 blocks on the 60x profile: before
41 to 1,342 MB by 514 blocks (9 cache builds, five 256 MiB chunks resident:
KEEP 4 plus one evicted chunk the allocator keeps) then flat, 27 builds in
1,529 blocks; after 319 MB at 510 blocks (1 build), 589 at 1,029 (the second
day's cache, by design), 603 at 1,526, 2 builds. Residual 30 MB per 1,000
blocks on both builds, read as the consensus database and caches filling,
not the PoW cache. JSON and vmmap files under
docs/benchmarks/memory-floods-2026-10-04/.
