checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 3m35s
FCST-03's developer reverted `self.provisional` to `here.provisional`, re-ran,
and reported the mutation as a survivor. It was not one. CPython validates a
cached `.pyc` on (source size, source mtime truncated to whole seconds), and
that edit moved neither number - same length, same second - so the interpreter
loaded the bytecode it already had. Disassembly settled it at the time: the
source read `here`, the running code loaded `self`. A mutation run had graded
code that was not there, with no error and exit status 0.

This does not make the results already on the record wrong. It makes them
UNVERIFIED, and that distinction is the whole card - so nothing here re-runs a
campaign and nothing here quietly assumes the old numbers hold.

REPRODUCED, THEN CLOSED. test_bytecode.py builds a real package whose two
return values are the same length, imports it in a real subprocess, rewrites it
inside the same second (retrying until both writes land in one whole second -
milliseconds, no sleep) and reads back which value ran. Part 1 shows the
interpreter running SELF off a file that says HERE.

AND THE TWO OBVIOUS MITIGATIONS DO NOT WORK. Measured, not read off
documentation: `python3 -B` and PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 are write-side only.
Neither stops an EXISTING stale .pyc being read, and a mutation run always has
one, because the previous run wrote it. Part 2 grades both still running the old
code. The advice in test_control.py's coverage audit led with `-B`; it is
corrected here - the purge is the half that works, and `-B` earns its place by
keeping THIS run from leaving a cache for the NEXT edit to inherit.

NO SLEEP ANYWHERE. One-second mtime resolution is the mechanism, not the enemy.
Waiting it out would slow every run down and would still only cover the edit
somebody remembered to slow down.

THE HARNESS. tools/mutation_run.sh purges, prints a sha256/byte fingerprint of
every app/*.py it is about to grade - so a mutation report can say WHICH source
produced it, which is the reviewer's addition to this card - runs each suite
under `python3 -B`, refuses a tree with no test_*.py (CI-01's rule, for CI-01's
reason), and fails if a cache appears during the run. It takes the tree as an
argument so the infra repo's replay harnesses can call it without being moved.

WHERE IT IS SAID (AC 2). MUTATION.md carries the mechanism, the measurement,
the reporting rules and the survey, and every one of the 16 suites now points at
it from its docstring. That list is DERIVED FROM THE TREE by test_bytecode.py
part 5, so a new suite that joins this directory without the pointer is red -
the same failure shape CI-01's file glob exists to prevent.

CI WAS ALREADY IMMUNE, AND IS DESCRIBED THAT WAY (AC 4). Verified rather than
reasoned: with the checkout bind mounted `-v "$WS:/w:ro"` the interpreter writes
no __pycache__ into the tree at all, and it fails SILENTLY - no error, exit
status 0 - while the same probe on a writable mount produces one. Each job also
rm -rf's its workspace and clones afresh, so nothing crosses between jobs on the
shared runner. PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 is added as belt and braces only: the
`:ro` is one character wide and the next person debugging a write will be
tempted by it. Part 6 grades both ON THE DOCKER COMMAND LINE rather than on the
file - the first draft searched the whole workflow and stayed green after the
flag was deleted, because the comment explaining it still named it.

THE SHIPPED ADD-ON IS NOT AFFECTED and the question is closed:
goodwe_controller/Dockerfile has set PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 since it was
written. There is no deploy-side finding.

THE SURVEY (AC 3), in MUTATION.md, scoped BY THE PROPERTY. The defect is
one-directional - a mutation that never took leaves the suite green, so stale
bytecode manufactures SURVIVORS and cannot manufacture a red - which puts every
"all red, no survivors" claim in the window out of scope, along with mutations
executed in-process (SAFETY-07's B1/B2/B3, test_peakguard parts 7 and 10, where
no source file is edited) and everything run after the purge discipline landed
on 2026-08-31 (SAFETY-24, SAFETY-26, OPT-04, FCST-03's re-run). What is left is
the recorded SURVIVORS from source-edit runs before that date. Two were re-run
here under the harness and both still stand: TARIFF-01's record_block() ignoring
its policy argument, and SAFETY-03's abs() on the clamp limit - 15 suites green
each, on the tree as it stood. The rest are labelled still-unverified rather
than assumed or re-run; each is one harness run to close, and the moment to
spend it is when somebody next touches that module.

OUT OF SCOPE AND RECORDED: the infra repo's sim/ replay harnesses import the
add-on and write bytecode into both trees (goodwe/sim/__pycache__ exists today),
so SAFETY-02's headline replay carries the same exposure. mutation_run.sh takes
a tree argument for exactly that, but the change belongs in that repo and some
of those harnesses want the rig.

RED AND GREEN. Every new check was broken and watched fail: the purge commented
out of the harness turns part 4 red (and its non-vacuity probe already proves
the fixture would mis-grade without it); one docstring pointer removed turns
part 5 red naming the file; `:ro` and the `-e` flag removed from the workflow
turn part 6 red. Full suite green, 16 files, in the CI image on a read-only
mount - the shape the runner uses.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 cc4e88490b SAFETY-02 review: a latch that a restart clears is not a latch
BLOCKER. `auto` was persisted and `sign_wd.tripped` was not, so reconstructing
the Controller against the same store - which is what a container restart does -
brought it back ARMED, into the same fault, unattended: tripped=False, banner
back to NOT READY, and it resumed commanding -1000 then -2000 W before
re-tripping 180 s later. "Restart the add-on" is the first thing an operator
looking at a FAILSAFE banner and a 0 W inverter will try, and under a supervisor
that restarts a crashed add-on it is a loop of three-minute wrong-direction
bursts. DOCS.md's "it does not clear itself" was false across a restart.

`sign_tripped` and `sign_reason` are Store keys now, beside the maintenance
state and for the reason store.py's own docstring gives. Written the moment the
trip happens - reason first, flag second, so a crash between the two can never
persist a latch with no explanation - restored in Controller.__init__, cleared
only by the operator's start. The regression is covered: reverting the restore
fails seven checks in test_watchdog.py.

Review follow-ups, no behaviour change:

- The arming gate is tested against the REAL arbiter. It is the decision the
  ticket turns on and it was asserted in three comment blocks and verified by
  nothing - every case passed `following` in as a literal. Twelve claim
  configurations now derive it from resolve(), including the redirect case
  `winner == "loop"` alone would have got wrong and the `lo` limit that raises
  magnitude without flipping sign.
- The MQTT `status: "failsafe"` value is tested. The check that claimed to cover
  it restated the line above it and never touched the payload.
- The worked example described a config that does not ship: at the defaults
  maintenance_charge_w 2500 against max_w 2000 is an arbiter contradiction and
  0 W, not a -2500 W charge. Rewritten at 1500 W. The contradiction is a real
  pre-existing bug - a default cheap-window maintenance charge silently never
  happens - filed separately and deliberately not fixed here.
- Forward hazard recorded at the gate: `winner == "loop"` disarms the watchdog
  under any higher-priority SET, and a peak-shaving strategy at P_PEAK IS
  grid-following in sign, so it would blind this for every peak event.
- disagrees() is public so the replay harness stops carrying its own copy of the
  predicate it grades.
- held_s takes the clock instead of reading one.
- The two limits are now each stated in both places rather than one each.
- The no-false-positive argument is tied to control.py's freeze permitting the
  command to cross zero; under the shrink-only encoding control.py records as
  rejected, this would false-trip on a load step.
- Measured figures corrected: 93.4 % / 4212 of 17280, per-cluster
  0.3/0.9/10.5/0.0, and the near-circularity of those figures is now stated
  rather than leaned on.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 9aed43990b SAFETY-02: a loop can be fresh, tracking and inside its rating and still push the wrong way
The stale-input watchdog asks whether the meter is still talking. The saturation
freeze asks whether the inverter can follow. The output clamp asks whether the
number is too big. A loop can pass all three while charging the battery out of
the grid, because the only thing wrong is the sign.

On 2026-08-20 a commercial controller did exactly that four times in one day,
for up to 77 minutes at a stretch, reaching a commanded -14 768 W against a
±5000 W inverter. app/watchdog.py compares the emitted setpoint against the
authoritative P1 figure and, when they oppose each other with both over 300 W
for 180 s continuously, files a failsafe SET claim at P_SAFETY, commands 0 W and
latches there until an operator starts control again.

Validated against that day rather than against an argument: sim/replay_sign.py
in the infra repo drives this module over the committed captures of both
2026-08-20 and the healthy 2026-08-23 and reaches 18 trips on the fault day -
every one inside a window NOTES.md §4.7 accounts for - and 0 on the healthy day.
The four episodes do share one signature: 0.3 / 0.9 / 10.5 / 0.0 % sign
agreement inside them against 92.9 % healthy.

Three decisions the ticket could not make:

- It is DISARMED whenever the grid-following loop is not what is driving. Sign
  agreement is a property of a loop that follows the meter, and a maintenance
  grid charge opposes the meter by design - 2500 W of charge into a house
  drawing 500 W is +3000 W on the meter against a -2500 W command, for hours.
  The gate tests the emitted number, not the winning claim's name, because a
  limit claim can let the loop "win" and still replace its value.
- The trip LATCHES. Commanding 0 W removes the command side of the comparison,
  so the disagreement always clears the moment the trip works.
- sign_disagree_w at or above max_w is refused at startup. The arbiter never
  lets a command exceed max_w, so such a threshold leaves the watchdog incapable
  of firing while the status page still reports it armed.

What it does not catch, said out loud: an inverter that ACTS opposite to its
command moves the meter further the same way, leaving command and meter in
agreement. That is the saturation freeze's job.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 aae74d7571 SAFETY-12 review: name the safety claim that could not fire, and fix two figures
Review fixes.

A. test_loop.py takes 73 s, not the ~35 s claimed in three places. That number
is the whole defence against a future developer deleting a slow test, so it was
understated by 2x in exactly the place it matters. Corrected - and it is now
~95 s (measured 93 s), because this commit adds the scenario below rather than
trimming windows to make an inconvenient number smaller. Both call sites carry
an instruction to re-measure if the windows change.

B. "242 checks" was test_p1's own count quoted as the total for all five
suites. The real figure is 395 across the five, plus 14 here.

And the finding this PR should have led with. stale_input_s and the
`inputs missing -> 0 W` claim both live INSIDE cycle(), so pre-fix, on a meter
whose value happened to repeat, that claim could not fire at all. Constant
meter, SoC entity dying at t=4 s, one binary:

  pre-fix   final target 220.0 W, reason 'loop -> 220 W'
  post-fix  final target   0.0 W, reason 'safety -> 0 W'

The old controller held 220 W through the whole input outage with its status
line still reading loop -> 220 W, and layer 1 does not cover that on a
`meter_source: off` install - no P1 age sensor is published, so the firmware has
nothing to veto on, while the heartbeat keeps its watchdog fed. The pre-fix
behaviour was not "holds a stale command safely"; it was a failsafe a repeating
meter switched off. Asserted in test_loop.py, both halves.

Three points of reasoning tightened, none of them wrong before:

- the re-tune is unreachable by construction, not merely by the reset: the
  combined cycle rate is max(arrival rate, 1/floor), never the sum, and 1/15 s
  is strictly slower than the ~1/5 s arrival rate. That holds only while the
  floor exceeds the meter's update interval - and the schema minimum of 5 s is
  exactly the reference meter's interval. Flagged for validate.py, not fixed
  here.
- the ~11 s lower bracket is not only a dropped poll: a 5.0 s poller against a
  4.97 s meter beats, so about every 14 minutes the poller steps over an update
  entirely. Reaching 15 s takes a beat-skip AND a failed poll.
- the "freshness is decided upstream" guarantee is transport-conditional. On
  `meter_source: off` the grid figure comes straight from hass.number() with no
  age gate. Running the full law is still right; the claim is narrower than it
  was stated.

The 15 s default is not independently justified - it rests on the firmware's
30 s ingest veto and moves if that ever does. Said beside the constant.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 96a808a057 HANDOVER: run every suite before deploying, and say why one is slow
The pre-deploy command listed three of the five suites; test_validate and
test_p1 were never added when they arrived. Adds those and test_loop, with a
note that test_loop's ~35 s is the cost of proving a wall-clock property about a
loop that sleeps 1 s a tick rather than a sign something is wrong.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 0422127cab HANDOVER said 0.2.0; the running add-on is 0.4.0
Two versions stale. 0.3.0 shipped SAFETY-04 and TEL-01, 0.4.0 shipped TEL-04
and TEL-05 and changed the meter transport to homewizard_local - so a reader
taking this line at face value would look for a meter path that is no longer
how this system reads the grid.

Found in the 2026-08-27 backlog audit.

adminandClaude Opus 5 1b85eb41ad Handover doc: state, known breakage, and what to do next
Written for a cold start. Covers what is actually running (0.2.0, on a real
battery), how to deploy without falling into the version-bump trap, the four
things that are known broken, and the ranked next steps.

Leads with the two facts most likely to cause harm if missed: never run the
add-on and the old YAML packages together, and a "-20"/G2 inverter cannot be
driven by this at all.
