SAFETY-07: cap the loop before it sets the month's billed capacity peak
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 3m7s

TARIFF-01 measured the quarter and said the consumer would be this card. It is
one new module, app/peakguard.py, and one new claim.

THE MECHANISM. Every cycle the guard projects the open 900 s block to its
end-of-interval average - from P1 telegrams only, never from the command - and
compares it to a ceiling. Over the ceiling it files ONE arbiter claim: a lower
bound on the setpoint at P_PEAK. That single shape is both behaviours 10.1 asks
for, a hard clamp on charging and pre-emptive discharge, and it cannot cap
discharge or export, because a floor cannot. 9.1's asymmetry becomes a property
of the object instead of a rule to remember.

    excess = 900 x (projected - ceiling) / seconds remaining
    floor  = MEASURED battery power + excess

The 900/remaining gain is 1.0 at the top of the quarter and grows, so the guard
is gentlest where its projection rests on the least evidence. The floor is sized
from delivered battery power, not the standing command: a floor built on intent
re-adds its own unmet ask every cycle and winds to the rail whenever the inverter
fails to follow, and test_peakguard.py part 1 shows the two diverging.

IT TRIPS, AND THE CAPTURES DECIDED THAT. On the healthy reference day it engages
on zero of 95 quarters. The action is level-triggered, unlatched and re-derived
every cycle, so a false engagement costs one cycle of discharge rather than a
parked battery - the cost SAFETY-18 could not bound and this one can. Replayed on
2026-08-20 the billed quarter goes from 5029.8 W, above the inverter's own 5000 W
rating, to 3485 W, under the soft limit and without saturating. Quarters under
the limit across both committed days: 189/190 -> 190/190. Two days is not thirty
and AC 3 remains TARIFF-01's open item.

BLINDNESS IS CHECKED BEFORE THE PROJECTION IS GRADED, and it is a different
action. A fresh averager projects a confident 0 W, which is under every ceiling
there is; a meter gap longer than meter_max_age_s makes the projection read LOW;
a frozen meter reading export projects 0 W at full coverage. All three become a
floor of 0 W - no importing while the billed quantity is unobservable - which is
one-directional and cannot cost pack energy. That is the backstop SAFETY-18 could
not be: its alarm arrives at 300 s of a 900 s quarter and commands nothing. The
frozen term is freeze.looks_frozen() itself, on this cycle's standing command.

THE CEILING IS peak_cap_w, RAISED ONLY BY AN OBSERVED READING. NO_RECORD and
NOT_OBSERVED both leave it at the cap, so an unreadable peak store makes the
guard stricter and never looser. The gate is the reading's STATE, not whether a
number happens to be attached: today a `peak_w is not None` test behaves
identically, and depending on that coincidence is how a future last-known-peak
field would raise the ceiling off a read that failed. headroom_w() is
deliberately not consumed - cap minus peak turns a zero peak into FULL freedom.

TWO DEFECTS FOUND BUILDING IT, both in the interaction rather than the
arithmetic, and both caught by running the thing rather than by reading it:

  * A LIMIT does not out-vote another LIMIT. arbiter.resolve() applies every
    limit at or above the winner's priority and takes the most restrictive, so
    the peak floor (lo >= 0) and the maintenance charge-only shaping (hi <= 0)
    resolved to a CONTRADICTION and 0 W - the battery parked in the exact quarter
    it should shave. Fixed by suppression, not priority: main.py drops the
    maintenance shaping while the guard is engaged, which is what that branch
    already did for the optional peak_forecast_entity - a key empty on a default
    install, so until now the suspension could not fire on the site that needed
    it.
  * Thresholding `excess > 0` released the claim the instant it began working,
    producing seventeen engage/release cycles in one 900 s quarter and leaving
    that quarter 49 W over the limit it had spent fifteen minutes holding. That
    is 10.2's oscillation. The threshold is now the floor itself, which is the
    same arithmetic read as a level rather than as a switch.

PeakTracker.project() no longer reads a private name with a default.
getattr(averager, "_last_net", 0.0) failed quiet AND disarming - a rename credits
0 W held, the projection reads low, the money guard does not engage.
QuarterAverager.held_net_w is a documented public property now, read without a
default, and Projection carries it. TEST-13 item 4.

NO NEW OPTION AND NO FOURTH DEFAULTS SITE. The ceiling is peak_cap_w, the
coverage threshold is meter_max_age_s, the freeze predicate is meter_freeze_s,
and the achievable discharge comes from max_w and the device rating. config.yaml
and validate.py are untouched; 14's capacity_peak_limit_kw stays declined. On
meter_source: off there are no telegrams, so the guard does not run at all and
the status page says NOT COVERED - running it there blinded it permanently and
stopped every legacy install from charging, which is what the first cut did until
test_clamp.py's export case caught it.

test_peakguard.py: eight parts, all figures derived from the shipped config.yaml
and the committed captures. Part 8 runs seven one-line defeats of the guard and
reports which check bites; six do, and the seventh is reported as NOT caught,
because max(cap, peak) makes a zero peak the strictest ceiling there is and there
is nothing left to catch.

## Unreleased
**The grid-following loop is now capped against the month's billed capacity peak
(SAFETY-07).** New `app/peakguard.py`. TARIFF-01 measured the quarter; this is the
consumer it was built for. Every cycle the guard projects the open quarter,
compares it to a ceiling and files ONE arbiter claim: a lower bound on the
setpoint at `P_PEAK`. That shape is both behaviours §10.1 asks for — a hard clamp
on charging and pre-emptive discharge — and it cannot cap discharge or export,
because a floor cannot. `excess = 900 × (projected − ceiling) ÷ remaining`, and
the floor is the MEASURED battery power plus that: a floor built on the standing
command winds itself to the rail whenever the inverter fails to follow, and one
built on delivered power cannot.
**It trips where SAFETY-18 only notifies, and the captures decided that.** On the
healthy reference day it engages on zero of 95 quarters; the action is
level-triggered, unlatched and re-derived every cycle, so a false engagement costs
one cycle of discharge rather than a parked battery. Replayed on 2026-08-20 the
billed quarter goes from **5029.8 W — above the inverter's own 5000 W rating — to
3485 W**, under the soft limit and without saturating. Quarters under the limit
across both committed days: 189/190 → 190/190. Two days is not thirty; AC 3 is
still TARIFF-01's open item and this does not claim it.
**Blindness forbids importing, and it is checked before the projection is
graded.** A fresh averager projects a confident 0 W, which is under every ceiling
there is; a meter gap longer than `meter_max_age_s` makes the projection read LOW;
and a frozen meter reading export projects 0 W at full coverage. All three become
a floor of 0 W, which is one-directional and cannot cost pack energy. That is the
backstop SAFETY-18 could not be — its alarm arrives at 300 s of a 900 s quarter
and commands nothing. The frozen term is `freeze.looks_frozen()` itself, evaluated
on this cycle's standing command, not a second copy of the conjunction.
**The ceiling is `peak_cap_w`, raised only by an OBSERVED reading.** `NO_RECORD`
and `NOT_OBSERVED` both leave it at the cap, so an unreadable peak store makes the
guard STRICTER. The gate is the reading's STATE, not whether a number happens to
be attached to it: today a `peak_w is not None` test behaves identically, and
depending on that coincidence is how a future last-known-peak field would silently
raise the ceiling off a read that failed. `headroom_w()` is deliberately not
consumed — `cap − peak` turns a zero peak into FULL freedom.
**Two defects found building it, both in the interaction rather than the
arithmetic.** A LIMIT does not out-vote another LIMIT — `arbiter.resolve()` applies
every limit at or above the winner's priority and takes the most restrictive — so
the peak floor (`lo ≥ 0`) and the maintenance charge-only shaping (`hi ≤ 0`)
resolved to a CONTRADICTION and 0 W, parking the battery in the exact quarter it
should shave. Fixed by suppression rather than priority: main.py drops the
maintenance shaping while the guard is engaged, which is what that branch already
did for the optional `peak_forecast_entity` — a key that is empty on a default
install, so until now the suspension could not fire on the site that needed it.
And thresholding `excess > 0` released the claim the instant it started working,
producing seventeen engage/release cycles in one 900 s quarter (§10.2's
oscillation) and leaving that quarter 49 W over; the threshold is now the floor
itself, which is the same arithmetic read as a level rather than as a switch.
**`PeakTracker.project()` no longer reads a private name with a default.**
`getattr(averager, "_last_net", 0.0)` failed quiet AND in the disarming direction:
a rename credits 0 W held, the projection reads low, and the money guard does not
engage. `QuarterAverager.held_net_w` is now a documented public property, read
without a default, and `Projection` carries it. TEST-13 item 4.
**No new option, and no fourth defaults site.** The ceiling is `peak_cap_w`, the
coverage threshold is `meter_max_age_s`, the freeze predicate is `meter_freeze_s`,
and the achievable discharge comes from `max_w` and the device rating.
`config.yaml` and `validate.py` are untouched; §14's `capacity_peak_limit_kw`
stays declined as the kW/W mismatch trap it is. On `meter_source: off` there are
no telegrams, so the guard does not run at all and the status page says NOT
COVERED — running it there would have blinded it permanently and stopped every
legacy install from charging, which is what the first cut did until
`test_clamp.py`'s export case caught it.
**The capacity-tariff peak is now measured, banked and survives a restart
(TARIFF-01).** New `app/tariff.py`. The 15-minute block average itself was
already built and unwired - `p1.QuarterAverager` computes clock-aligned 900 s

So the frozen-meter alarm below **narrows the window; it does not close it.** On
a capacity-tariff site where an unattended runaway is unacceptable, the mitigation
today is operational: set `max_w` no higher than the loop actually needs (the
tuning was measured at 2000 W and a 1.78 kW load step is tracked fine there), fit
the e-stop, and watch for the alarm.
On the legacy `meter_source: off` path there are no P1 telegrams, so there is no
quarter-hour average to guard, and the status page says **NOT COVERED**. There
the mitigation is still operational: set `max_w` no higher than the loop actually
needs (the tuning was measured at 2000 W and a 1.78 kW load step is tracked fine
there), fit the e-stop, and watch for the alarm.
### The capacity-peak guard
**What it does.** Every cycle the add-on projects the open quarter to its
end-of-interval average — from P1 telegrams only, never from the command — and
compares it to a ceiling. Over the ceiling it files one claim: a **lower bound on
the setpoint**, at `P_PEAK`. That single shape is both behaviours §10.1 asks for:
a hard clamp on charging while the bound sits above the standing charge, and
pre-emptive discharge while it sits above zero. It can never cap discharge or
export, because a floor cannot.
**The number.** `excess = 900 × (projected − ceiling) ÷ seconds remaining`, and
the floor is the **measured** battery power plus that. The 900/remaining factor
is the design rather than an accident: it is 1.0 at the top of the quarter and
grows, so the guard is gentlest when its projection rests on the least evidence
and becomes aggressive only once the quarter is nearly measured.
**The ceiling** is `peak_cap_w`, raised to the month's banked peak when that
already stands higher — once a month's bill is set at 5013 W, holding later
quarters to 3500 W buys nothing and costs real charging. **That relaxation is
granted only by an OBSERVED reading:** a peak store that cannot be read leaves the
ceiling at the cap, so a broken instrument makes the guard stricter, never looser.
**When it cannot see, it forbids importing.** Three states are not evidence and
are checked before the projection is graded: no open quarter (a fresh averager
projects a confident 0 W, which is under every ceiling there is), a meter gap
longer than `meter_max_age_s`, and SAFETY-18's frozen-meter conjunction. In all
three the claim becomes a floor of **0 W**. That is the backstop for the frozen
meter: the alarm arrives at `meter_freeze_s` (300 s) of a 900 s billing quarter
and commands nothing, and this stops the import.
**It trips, where the freeze detector only notifies,** and the captures are why.
On the healthy reference day (2026-08-23) it engages on **zero** of 95 quarters.
The action is level-triggered and unlatched — re-derived from a fresh projection
every cycle, released the instant the projection drops back — so a false
engagement costs one cycle of discharge rather than a parked battery. And it is a
LIMIT, so every stop in the watchdog table still outranks it.
**Replayed on 2026-08-20**, the day the vendor controller failed: the billed
quarter measured **5029.8 W**, above the inverter's own 5000 W rating, and the
guard brings it to **3485 W** — under the soft limit, without ever asking for more
than the inverter can give. Across both committed days the quarters under the
limit go from 189/190 to 190/190. Two days is not thirty and does not close AC 3;
it is the comparison two days can support.
**What it alarms on is saturation, not engagement.** An engagement is an ordinary
control action and goes to the action log and the status page. A *saturated*
guard — asking for everything the inverter has while the quarter is still
projected over — raises one notification (`goodwe_peak_saturated`), because that
is the one state where the money will be spent and shedding load is the only
thing left that changes the bill.
**No new option.** The ceiling is `peak_cap_w`, which already shipped. The
coverage threshold is `meter_max_age_s`, the freeze predicate is
`meter_freeze_s`, and the achievable discharge comes from `max_w` and the device
rating — every one of them a key that already exists.

# response to. The predicate itself is freeze.py's shipped

# should be discharging hardest. maintenance_charge_w had to learn the
# same lesson (config.yaml, validate.py rule 6); this claim is built so
# the config cannot express it.
#
# ⚠️ AND IT IS FILED EVERY CYCLE, unconditionally, like SAFETY-02's. A
# claim is not sticky. Filed once and skipped next cycle, the floor
# lapses and the actuator goes silently back to whatever was pushing the
# peak. Which of the higher-priority claims outranks it is arbiter.py's
# business, not this block's - and the answer is already right: a

a house load bigger than the inverter - 2026-08-20 15:45 ran ~5900 W
against a 5000 W unit - and alarming on the ordinary case is how an
operator learns to dismiss the notification that matters. So an
engagement is an ordinary control action: it goes to the §15 action log
and the status page, and no further.
What DOES earn the operator's attention is saturation: the guard asked
for more discharge than the inverter can give, so the quarter is going
over the ceiling anyway and the controller has already done everything
available to it. That is the one state where the money is going to be

"""SAFETY-07 - the quarter-peak projection guard, and the only thing in this
add-on that is allowed to spend the loop's freedom to save money.
WHAT IT IS. TARIFF-01 built the INSTRUMENT: `tariff.py` measures the number the
Belgian capaciteitstarief bills on - the highest 15-minute average offtake of the
calendar month - and banks it where a restart cannot reach. It files no claim and
commands nothing, and says so in its own first paragraph. This module is the
CONSUMER it named. It turns that measurement into one arbiter claim and nothing
else: no writes, no I/O, no clock, no state between calls. Given a projection and
two measured numbers it returns a decision; `main.py` files it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE HAZARD, WITH THE EURO FIGURE
specs.md:583 records a measured case: ONE 4998 W quarter moved a monthly peak
from 4832 W to 5013 W and billed the whole month at it. The capacity tariff has
no averaging and no forgiveness - the month's single worst quarter is the bill.
SAFETY-18 shipped the ALARM for the way this system produces such a quarter by
itself: a meter that answers 200 OK forever with a document that never changes,
which every freshness mechanism in this stack reads as healthy while the loop
integrates a constant error to the rail and holds it there. freeze.py's own
table: at the live install's `max_w: 5000`, a meter frozen at >= 3000 W rails the
command in 75 s. SAFETY-18 notifies at `meter_freeze_s` (300 s default), against
a 900 s billing quarter. That is about nine minutes of human reaction time and
nothing else - freeze.py says so in the words "THIS CUT DOES NOT CAP THAT."
This is the cap. It is deliberately NOT a second freeze detector: it consumes
freeze.py's shipped predicate rather than transcribing it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE MECHANISM: ONE `lo` LIMIT AT `P_PEAK`, AND WHY THAT SHAPE
specs.md 10.1 row 2 asks for exactly two behaviours - "pre-emptive discharge as
the projected quarter average approaches the soft limit; hard clamp on charging
above it" - and 9.1 constrains the lever: "Discharge and export are never capped
by the peak guard; only charging and import are."
A LOWER BOUND on the setpoint is both of those in one object, and it is the only
shape that is:
* incapable of capping discharge - a floor never stops the loop discharging
HARDER, so 9.1's asymmetry is structural here rather than remembered;
* incapable of capping export, for the same reason;
* a hard clamp on charging whenever the floor is above the standing charge;
* pre-emptive discharge whenever the floor is above zero.
It is a LIMIT, not a SET, and that matters at both ends of the priority table.
`P_PEAK` (50) is above `P_LOOP` (10), so it binds the grid-following loop. It is
BELOW `P_MAINTENANCE` (60) and `P_SAFETY` (100), so a maintenance phase that owns
the actuator and every layer-1 stop still outrank it: arbiter.py's clause 2 only
applies limits whose priority is >= the WINNING SET's, so a P_SAFETY 0 W stop is
not dragged off zero by this floor. That is the correct order - a controller
pushing power the wrong way is wrong however much money it is trying to save.
⚠️ AND A LIMIT DOES NOT OUT-VOTE ANOTHER LIMIT. This was assumed, and it is
false: arbiter.py clause 2 applies EVERY limit at or above the winner's priority
and takes the MOST RESTRICTIVE, with no notion of priority between them - which
is exactly what makes the safety bounds unconditional and must not be changed.
So this floor (`lo >= 0`) and the maintenance charge-only shaping (`hi <= 0`) do
not resolve in P_PEAK's favour when both are filed. They resolve to `lo > hi`, a
CONTRADICTION, which arbiter.py answers with 0 W - the battery parked in the one
quarter of the month it should be shaving hardest. The rule for two limits that
can cross is therefore SUPPRESSION, not priority: main.py drops the maintenance
shaping for as long as this guard is engaged, which is the same thing that branch
already did for `peak_forecast_entity` and is why 9.1's "money outranks the
maintenance schedule" reads as a suppression there rather than as a priority
here. The floor's clamp to `achievable_w` closes the only other pair that could
cross - the P_SAFETY rating bounds.
AND IT IS WHY OPT-04 NEEDS NO CHANGE HERE. 9.1 requires peak shaving to outrank
arbitrage. Arbitrage does not exist yet, but it will arrive as a SET below
P_PEAK, and arbiter.py clause 2 will bind it with this floor on the day it lands,
with no edit to this file. Expressing the priority as a claim rather than as an
if/else in main.py is the whole reason that holds.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FLOOR IS DERIVED, AND EVERY TERM OF IT IS MEASURED
Let `ceiling_w` be the quarter average that must not be exceeded and `remaining`
the seconds left in the open block. `project()` gives
projected = (acc + held * remaining) / 900
so the held level that would land the quarter exactly on the ceiling is
`held + 900 * (ceiling - projected) / remaining`, and the watts that must come
off the meter are the difference between the two:
excess_w = 900 * (projected - ceiling) / remaining
That single expression carries the whole control law, and two properties of it
are the argument for this design:
1. THE CLAIM IS FILED WHILE THE FLOOR IS POSITIVE, NOT WHILE THE EXCESS IS.
`excess` is what must come off the METER, so it falls to zero the moment the
battery is already taking it - and a guard that disengaged there would hand
the actuator back, watch the offtake spring straight to the raw load, and
engage again next cycle. That is not a hypothetical: it is what the first
cut of this file did to 2026-08-20's billed quarter on replay - seventeen
engage/release cycles in 900 s, and the quarter still finished 49 W over the
limit it had spent a quarter of an hour holding. 10.2 names the cost
exactly: "an EMS that oscillates is worse than no EMS, both for hardware
wear and - per 9.1 - for the peak it is trying to avoid."
`batt_w + excess` IS the quantity to threshold: the offtake there would be
with the battery at zero, less the level this quarter can still afford. Read
as a LEVEL rather than as a switch, the same arithmetic gives a claim that
is filed for as long as a positive floor is needed and decays continuously
to nothing as the load falls. So there is still no hysteresis constant in
this file - not because oscillation was ruled out by argument, but because
the thresholded quantity is the one that does not oscillate.
2. THE GAIN IS 900/remaining, WHICH IS 1.0 AT THE START OF THE QUARTER AND
GROWS. This is the answer to the degeneracy at the top of a block, where the
projection is an extrapolation from almost no evidence: the guard is at its
GENTLEST exactly when its evidence is weakest, and becomes aggressive only
once most of the quarter is behind it and the projection is nearly a
measurement. The formula supplies that; no minimum-evidence threshold was
invented, because inventing one would delay the guard in the case it exists
for - a sustained rail from second zero.
The floor itself is then
floor_w = batt_w + excess_w
`batt_w` IS THE MEASURED BATTERY POWER, NOT THE STANDING COMMAND. Both were
available. The measured one is right for two independent reasons. First, 9.1's
settled constraint is that the utility bills what FLOWED - the arithmetic
`grid = load - batt` is true of delivered power and false of intent. Second, and
concretely: when the inverter cannot follow (the saturation case control.py
already freezes the integrator for), a floor built on the command asks for
`command + excess` every cycle while the command never arrives, and winds itself
to the rail; a floor built on the measurement asks for `delivered + excess`,
which stops rising the moment delivery stops rising. The delivered form cannot
wind up. The intent form can.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE CEILING IS `peak_cap_w`, RAISED ONLY BY AN OBSERVATION
11.2's row is "Quarter peak | Projected quarter average approaches THE MONTHLY
PEAK | Clamp the command", and 9.1's soft limit is `peak_cap_w`. Both matter,
because the money is spent on `max(month's peak so far, this quarter)`:
ceiling_w = max(peak_cap_w, the month's banked peak)
Once a month's peak already stands at 5013 W, holding every later quarter to
3500 W buys nothing - the bill for that month is already 5013 W - while the
holding itself costs real charging the site wanted. Raising the ceiling to a peak
that has already been paid for is what stops one bad quarter from parking the
battery's charging for three weeks.
AND THAT RELAXATION IS GRANTED ONLY BY AN `OBSERVED` READING. `NO_RECORD` and
`NOT_OBSERVED` both leave the ceiling at `peak_cap_w`, the tighter of the two, so
a peak store that cannot be read makes this guard STRICTER and never looser. That
direction is the whole point: tariff.py's `PeakReading` exists because a database
that did not answer must not become a number, and the number it would have become
here - a zero peak - is exactly the one that reads as "no peak recorded, full
freedom". It is also why this module does NOT consume `headroom_w()`, whose
disarming failure it would otherwise inherit: a peak read as 0 W returns FULL
headroom, and full headroom is a guard that is not there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BLINDNESS COMES FIRST, AND IT IS A DIFFERENT ACTION
A projection is evidence only if the quantity under it was actually measured.
Three ways it is not, all of them checked BEFORE the projection is graded,
because grading a stimulus where the quantity it grades is degenerate is how a
guard passes its own tests while being switched off:
* NO OPEN BLOCK. `project()` answers a fresh averager with
`Projection(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, False, None, 0.0)` - a ZERO projection, which
compares as comfortably under any ceiling. That is not "the quarter is fine",
it is "there is no quarter". Graded as a number it silently disarms the guard
on exactly the startup path where nothing else is watching.
* COVERAGE. A meter gap longer than one `max_hold_s` window leaves seconds that
`QuarterAverager` deliberately does not accumulate (p1.py: holding a dead
meter's last value forward is how a fabricated peak gets onto a permanent
record). Those seconds make the projection read LOW, which is the
under-guarding direction. The threshold is `max_hold_s` itself - the point
p1.py already stops trusting a held sample - not a new number.
* FROZEN. SAFETY-18's conjunction, evaluated through `freeze.looks_frozen()`
rather than re-written here. A frozen meter is the worst case of all: the
samples keep ARRIVING, so coverage stays perfect and the projection is
confident - and if the stuck value is an export, the projection is a
confident ZERO while the real meter runs at the rail. This is the case
SAFETY-07 exists to backstop, and it is the case a projection cannot see.
THE BLIND ACTION IS `floor_w = 0.0`: the battery may not IMPORT while the billed
quantity is unobservable. It is the minimal action that closes the hazard, and it
is one-directional - forbidding charging can only ever lower delivered offtake,
never raise it - so a false blindness costs a charge the site wanted and cannot
cost energy the pack did not want to give. Contrast the graded branch, which can
force discharge; blindness deliberately does not earn that, because there is by
definition no measurement to size it from.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS ONE TRIPS WHERE SAFETY-18 ONLY NOTIFIES
SAFETY-18 shipped notification-first, and config.yaml says why in one line: "A
false trip parks the battery; a false alarm costs an alert." That reasoning is
right for a DETECTOR whose negative case had to be established on a rig run. It
does not carry to this guard, and the two committed captures say so:
* MEASURED FALSE-ENGAGEMENT RATE ON THE HEALTHY DAY: zero. 2026-08-23's worst
quarter is a few hundred watts against a 3500 W ceiling and nothing in its 95
quarters comes near engaging. test_peakguard.py re-measures that every run
from the committed capture rather than quoting it here.
* THE ACTION IS LEVEL-TRIGGERED AND UNLATCHED. It is re-derived from a fresh
projection every cycle and releases the instant the projection drops back
under the ceiling. There is no state to clear and no operator to wake. A
false engagement costs one cycle of discharge, not a parked battery - which
is precisely the cost SAFETY-18 could not bound and this one can.
* THE ACTION IS A LIMIT, NOT A SET. Every safety stop in 11.2's table outranks
it, so the worst thing a bug in this file can do is fail to relax a floor -
and a floor is bounded above by `achievable_w`, which main.py takes from the
same `max_w` and device rating the arbiter already enforces.
So it trips. It is also the only guard here whose trigger IS the billed quantity
itself, measured from parsed P1 telegrams, rather than a proxy for it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SATURATION IS REPORTED, NOT ALARMED AS A BUG
10.3's doctrine - "treat an out-of-range computed setpoint as a bug signal, clamp
it AND alarm" - is SAFETY-03's, and it is right there: a loop computing 14 768 W
is a winding integrator, i.e. a defect. A peak floor above the inverter's rating
is NOT a defect. It is the ordinary physics of a 5900 W house load on a 5000 W
inverter, which is literally what 2026-08-20 15:45 was. So the floor is clamped
to `achievable_w` and the decision carries `saturated`, and main.py raises ONE
notification on that - not because the controller is broken, but because it is
the one case where the money WILL be spent and the controller has already done
everything it can. An engagement that is not saturated is an ordinary control
action and goes to the action log, like the clamp's engagements do.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NO NEW OPTION. CFG-03 STILL TRACKS THREE PLACES.
`peak_cap_w` already ships, is already validated `int(500,15000)`, and is already
read by `control.peak_at_risk()`. `max_hold_s` comes off the averager the caller
already owns; `achievable_w` off `max_w` and the device rating the arbiter
already enforces; the freeze predicate off `meter_freeze_s`. config.yaml and
validate.py are untouched by this ticket, exactly as TARIFF-01 left them, and
14's `capacity_peak_limit_kw` stays declined - a kW key beside a W key is the
mismatch trap 14's own warning box describes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AND IT READS NO PER-PHASE QUANTITY, ON PURPOSE
The sum/max/net reduction is an open product question with the owner. TARIFF-01
put it behind `billed_w()` and defaulted to NET. Everything this module consumes
- `PeakReading.peak_w`, `Projection.projected_w` - is already reduced by that one
function, so whichever way the owner answers, this file does not change and does
not need re-testing. Nothing here indexes a phase.

# fallback, so renaming the attribute would have kept every projection
# green while crediting 0 W held - a projection that reads LOW, which is
# the UNDER-GUARDING direction for SAFETY-07's floor. TEST-13 item 4.
# `held_net_w` is now a documented public property on QuarterAverager and
# is read without a default, so the same rename raises AttributeError on
# the first cycle instead of quietly disarming the money guard.
