Claude 8fa4febfef SAFETY-10: the whole decision path runs and nothing reaches the inverter
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m58s
Every optimiser defect this project has found was invisible from outside
while it was happening, and each was paid for at the meter first: SAFETY-45's
28 charge onsets an hour against a binding peak_cap_w, TARIFF-14's wrong
quarter-hour for 45 minutes in every 60, SAFETY-46's 598 Wh spent to gain
310 Wh. There was no way to watch what the optimiser WOULD do without letting
it do it.

`shadow_mode` runs strategies, arbiter, clamps and guards, records the
decision with its reason, and commands nothing.

⚠️ IT WRITES. It writes 0 W, on the ordinary heartbeat, through the ordinary
single writer. The inverter holds its last command forever - it has no meter
timeout - so "commands nothing" implemented as "stops writing" would leave
whatever was standing when shadow mode came on standing for as long as it was
left on, under a page saying nothing is being commanded. That is the failure
this repository keeps finding. Refreshing 0 W is also what
firmware/goodwe-master.yaml's 30 s stale-input watchdog requires of us; going
quiet would keep that board tripped for the whole run, which is an alarm being
used as a mode.

⚠️ IT IS NOT A SECOND WRITE PATH. No claim, no transport, no arithmetic of its
own. It is a substitution inside Controller._write_unit() - the single choke
point every write already reaches - in the same form as the three above it,
and it is the LAST of them, so SAFETY-28's gate and SAFETY-03's clamp still
grade the number the decision path produced.

⚠️ THE DEFAULT IS `auto`, NOT `true`, AND THAT IS THE CARD'S REAL CONTENT. The
Supervisor composes options as {**config.yaml defaults, **stored user
options}, so a new key with a new default reaches EVERY EXISTING INSTALL on
the next update - including the one regulating a real battery. A boolean
default-on would have stopped it silently. There is no mechanism by which one
key can default differently for a new install and an existing one, so
"default-on for new" is a value the add-on RESOLVES: `auto` is shadow while
control is STOPPED and live once it is STARTED. A fresh install ships
`auto_start: false` and comes up observing; an install that is controlling is
started and does not change by one watt.

THE FAILSAFES. Sign watchdogs (SAFETY-02/30): INERT - they grade
Inverter.standing_w(), which shadow mode holds at 0 W. Fed the shadow decision
they would disagree with a meter that never saw it and LATCH A TRIP THAT
SURVIVES INTO LIVE OPERATION AND A RESTART. Clamp (SAFETY-03), write gate
(SAFETY-28), meter freeze (SAFETY-18), peak guard: OBSERVE. Circulation
(SAFETY-31) and delivery (SAFETY-42): observe and may legitimately latch,
because their evidence is measured power. The operator stop is the one
deliberate change: enforced at the wire rather than as a P_SAFETY claim, which
would otherwise make every recorded decision read "stopped".

⚠️ RECORDED LIMITATION: _shadow_settle() re-seeds the carried command to what
stands on the wire, which makes the exit safe by construction - and therefore
the loop leg's shadow decision is ONE SLEW STEP, not a trajectory. A shadow
run answers "what would it command now", not "what would it have done next".
The strategies are unaffected; all three defects above are visible from one.

Graded on the writes and on the rendered surface, never on the flag: 22
mutations, no survivors, including one that lets a write escape and one that
goes silent instead of commanding 0 W. Closed loop on TEST-23 stage 3's rig,
same hour twice: live drives the pack to -2000 W and SoC 50.000 -> 62.331 %;
shadow commands 0 W throughout, SoC stays 50.0 exactly, and the arbitrage
decision is identical in action, instant, signed power, reason and arbiter
winner.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 e1b9254626 SAFETY-45: a price-driven charge is SIZED by the capacity guard, not switched by it
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m42s
With arbitrage armed at the shipped defaults, arbitrage and the capacity-tariff
guard drove each other in a sustained limit cycle. Re-measured on TEST-23 stage
3's closed rig against 478ba93, metrics recomputed rather than taken from the
card: `peak_cap_w` 1500 / 1200 W house -> 28 charge onsets an hour, mean period
131.1 s, the grid swinging -455.5 to +3200.0 W; at the SHIPPED
`peak_cap_w: 3500` with an 1800 W house -> 8/h, with a 3000 W house -> 32/h.
The bite rule is `load + max_w > peak_cap_w`, i.e. any house over 1500 W in the
cheapest quarter. §10.2: "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." And it was
losing the argument it was having: EVERY billed quarter in the three affected
configurations finished OVER the cap.

⚠️ THE CARD'S STATED MECHANISM IS WRONG AND THE CORRECTION IS ON THE RECORD.
The card, and .cache/s45.md before it, say the loop is the quarter boundary
resetting the projection and arbitrage re-arming at full power. It is not. Of
the 27 gaps between the 28 onsets, 23 are 90-120 s (mean 111.5 s) and lie
ENTIRELY INSIDE one quarter; the four long gaps - 230, 240, 250, 255 s - are
exactly the four that SPAN a boundary, so the boundary LENGTHENS the interval
rather than causing an onset. The real cycle, off the recorded fields: the trade
charges at max_w while `wanted = batt_w + excess` is negative and the guard
files NOTHING; `wanted` crosses zero; the guard engages on a floor of 5.3 W;
that flips `arbitrage.guard_state()`, which cancels the WHOLE trade; the
grid-following loop - which targets grid = 0, not grid = ceiling - takes the
actuator and discharges to +1870 W, exporting 420 W; the projection collapses;
the guard releases; the trade re-arms at max_w. A binary interlock keyed on a
continuous quantity. A fix aimed at the boundary would have removed four of
twenty-eight onsets.

THE FIX IS A SHAPE THIS ADD-ON ALREADY HAD. `control.maintenance_charge_floor()`
caps a MAINTENANCE charge at "the headroom left under the site's cap", because
"a maintenance charge is the only thing this system does that is big enough and
long enough to set that peak". ⚠️ That sentence stopped being true when OPT-04
landed. `peakguard.charge_headroom_w()` publishes the same quantity off the
MEASURED guard rather than off the optional `peak_forecast_entity` - the hole
SAFETY-25 had to close in `shaping_suspended()` - and `arbitrage.decide()` sizes
its BUY leg to it, keyword-only and with no default.

NO NEW ARITHMETIC AND NO NEW CONSTANT. The number is `wanted_w` read in the
other direction: `decide()` already computes the DISCHARGE that lands the
quarter on the ceiling, and a negative one is a permitted CHARGE of `-wanted`.
⚠️ `peakguard.decide()` IS UNCHANGED - sha256(decide) = 200090d0835a3a55, 7252 B
on this branch and on 478ba93 - so 2026-08-20's anti-bang-bang rung is exactly
where it was, and tools/replay_ac3.py reproduces 190/190 guarded quarters, 110
engaged cycles, 5 blind and 878 Wh on both trees.

TWO PROPERTIES MAKE IT SAFE TO HAND A STRATEGY, BOTH SWEPT RATHER THAN ARGUED.
It is INVARIANT IN THE BATTERY - raise the charge by dW, the meter rises by dW,
so `excess` rises by dW while `batt_w` falls by dW and `wanted` does not move:
1350.0 W at every point across batt_w -5000..+2000 W on one banked quarter,
while the `excess` those runs see takes six distinct values. It is feed-forward,
so consuming it adds no feedback path around the plant. And HOLDING IMPLIES ZERO
OR UNKNOWN: across 1080 swept combinations not one ENGAGED decision answers a
positive headroom.

AFTER, same rig, same command. 1500/1200: 28 onsets -> 1, grid swing 3655.5 ->
282.0 W, energy bought 180.0 -> 285.2 Wh (+58%, because a continuous 300 W trade
beats a 2000 W trade cancelled for 57% of the hour), billed quarters
1490/1497/1509 -> 1500.0/1500.0/1500.0. 3500/1800: 8 -> 1, 3511/3536/3559 ->
3500/3500/3500. 3500/3000: 32 -> 1, 3519/3542/3557 -> 3500/3500/3500. The two
shipped-default rows buy 2.2% and 1.6% LESS energy and in exchange the worst
quarter goes from 59 W over the cap to zero - which is the ordering §10.1 asks
for, since the capacity tariff bills the month's single worst quarter.
⚠️ AND THE NEGATIVE CONTROL: at peak_cap_w 5000 with a 1200 W house, where
`load + max_w` never reaches the cap, the two runs are BIT-IDENTICAL.

⚠️ A NEGATIVE `lo` WAS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED, AND THE REASON IS IN THE CODE.
Deleting `decide()`'s `wanted <= 0` gate and filing `lo = wanted` is the tidier
answer arithmetically. It creates a new `lo > hi` CONTRADICTION against
main.py's cheap-window maintenance shaping, which files a NEGATIVE `hi`;
arbiter.py clause 2 has no notion of one limit out-ranking another, so it
resolves to 0 W - the battery PARKED in the quarter that sets the bill - and the
only way to close that suspends the maintenance charge shaping PERMANENTLY on
every site this card is about. A backoff or cooldown in arbitrage was rejected
too: both modules' design notes say no timer is invented, and the trade now
re-arms at `ceiling - load` rather than at max_w, which is what learning from a
refusal means when the refusal is a measurement.

THE REGRESSION IS THE LOOP SETTLING, NOT A UNIT TEST ON decide().
test_arbitrage.py 3c closes the loop over the shipped guard, strategy, arbiter,
control law and QuarterAverager with a modelled plant, and asserts BOTH
directions: unsized it must run away (24 onsets, -414..+3200 W, a quarter over
the cap) and sized it must settle (1 onset, 303 W swing, three quarters at
exactly 1500.0 W). The two runs differ in one argument. A third pair asserts the
card is INERT where the defect is inert.

Evidence: 29/29 green. 14 mutations, every one RED on a named check, no
survivors; two are ZERO BYTES - `min()` -> `max()` on the sizing, and the
sized-trade sentence's two operands transposed - and both are red. M13 reverts
the 2026-08-20 rung and is red on EIGHT named checks in test_peakguard and three
in test_arbitrage. Every revert verified by a tree fingerprint AFTER the revert,
which is how a defect in the battery's own harness was found: two edits to one
file, restored in list order, left the first one on disk (MUTATION.md habit 18).
test_peakguard.py part 1 also gained a None-safe format, because the mutation it
exists to catch made it raise TypeError one line later and ABORT the file -
parts 2-13 were ungraded and M13's recorded coverage was one check instead of
eight.

Not fixed, and named: TEST-23 finding 1's export overshoot at the END of a trade
(356-938 W, ~0.37 x max_w) is a different card; a house whose load ALONE exceeds
the cap still has the trade refused outright and the loop drive to grid = 0
rather than to the ceiling, and no swept pair reaches that regime; the container
leg (hadrive.py) was not re-run because test23s3-addon is deliberately stopped
as a second writer on the setpoint entity.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 995da777ce TARIFF-16: the injection leg stops being one number
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m42s
`price.py` modelled what a site is PAID for export as ONE scalar. The market
publishes a line, and the cards say so in their own words: Eneco Zon & Wind
Dynamisch `0,1 x BELPEX-H - 1,188` c EUR/kWh - "het injectietarief is dynamisch
en kan per uur wijzigen", identical on the January and the September 2026 cards;
ENGIE Dynamic `(B x eSpot_15) - A`; Aspiravi `0,07 x Belpex - 2`.
`price_export_formula` carries that line with its OWN coefficients.

⚠️ THIS IS NOT A WRONG-TRADE FIX, AND SAYING SO IS PART OF SHIPPING IT.
`arbitrage.py` does not read `export_price_eur_kwh` at all - its own comment
says so, citing §9.3's near-zero Belgian injection price as the reason the
economically sound trade on this market is charge-cheap-to-displace-expensive-
IMPORT. Both hours it compares are all-in CONSUMPTION prices. No trade this
add-on takes today is decided by an injection price and nothing here changes
one. What it changes is what an operator is told, and what a future
export-aware strategy rests on: OPT-06 and any export logic would otherwise
inherit a scalar that cannot represent the market, and the 6% VAT asymmetry
would be invisible in the arithmetic. test_price.py 17h parses every module
under app/ and goes red the day something calls an injection reader, so that
sentence is graded rather than attested.

FOUR PROPERTIES A SCALAR CANNOT HOLD. Its own factor (Eneco 0,102 consumption
against 0,100 injection; Aspiravi 0,07 against ~0,10 - not the consumption B
with a sign flip). A negative offset, which `price_markup_eur_kwh: float(0,1)`
cannot express at all. VAT-exemption - "injectietarieven zijn vrijgesteld van
btw" - against 6% on consumption, representable only because `vat_pct` is PER
SPEC. And a price that goes below zero with no floor, under 11,88 EUR/MWh of
BELPEX-H, which is the middle of a sunny day.

⚠️ A NEGATIVE INJECTION PRICE IS ACCEPTED, AND THAT NEEDED A DIFFERENT BAND
RATHER THAN A LOWER FLOOR. `implausible_all_in()` floors the consumption leg at
+0.02 EUR/kWh of energy; applied to injection that refuses the real market in
the hours it matters most. Measured rather than argued: 17c puts ONE spec
through BOTH bands and prints that the consumption band refuses -0.03008
EUR/kWh while the injection band accepts it. The floor was not decoration - it
is what catches a card read a hundred times too small, the one unit error the
card self-check cannot see because it cancels out of a comparison between the
two sides - so the bound moves OFF the price and ONTO the coefficients, where
it is index-free and sign-free: a pass-through band (Eneco's injection leg is
1.00x, Aspiravi's 0.70x; the band is 0.10-10x) and an offset magnitude bound
(0.20 EUR/kWh against published 0.01188 and 0.02). Two rungs that can both
answer a hundredfold error, so each is graded on its REASON, each gets a
stimulus the other cannot reach with the precondition asserted as its own
check, and they are mutated TOGETHER (TEST-16).

⚠️ THE CARD SELF-CHECK APPLIES WHERE THERE IS A CARD, AND WHERE THERE IS NOT
THAT IS STATED RATHER THAN WORKED AROUND. `price_formula` can require a `card`
block because a Belgian card prints the consumption formula, the reference
index AND the resulting price. Eneco's INJECTION formula is printed with no
price beside it. Requiring a block would make the published line inexpressible;
inventing the estimate would grade the coefficients against arithmetic done
with the same coefficients. So the block is OPTIONAL on this leg and unchanged
on the other, the self-check runs at the same tolerance wherever a printed
estimate exists, and validate.py says at startup - "its coefficients are
UNGRADED" - when it does not, naming the two bounds that ran instead. This is
TARIFF-15 demonstrating two tariffs end to end rather than three, one card
later. 17e also MEASURES the size of that gap: a factor of 0.070 where the
contract says 0.100 - 30% of every export payment - passes both bounds, because
0.70x is a pass-through somebody really publishes.

ONE PARSER, NOT TWO. `parse_export_formula()` is `parse_price_formula()` with
its OPTION NAME as an argument - TARIFF-17's move on `parse_static_profile()`,
exactly - and everything that differs between the legs is a string in one
`_LEGS` table. A second copy would be a second unit table, a second NaN rule, a
second unknown-key rule and a second `to_resolution()`, diverging first on the
23- and 25-hour days. test_price.py 17b pins it two ways: all 32 grammar names
are defined in exactly ONE module under app/, with the scope COMPUTED by
parsing every file rather than listed; and twelve refusal sentences for the new
option are DERIVED from the old option's own sentence rather than transcribed.
The four sentences that deliberately differ are named, with what differs, and
asserted to differ.

NOTHING CHANGES FOR A SITE THAT DOES NOT SET IT. The option ships "";
`export_price_eur_kwh()`'s body is byte-identical, pinned on the AST rather
than on the source text; `export_price_at()` falls through to it for every
index value. 17f compares seven option dicts x five index values against the
pre-TARIFF-16 expression with `==`.

`price_export_formula` joins FRAMEWORK_KEYS, BANNED_IN_PLUGIN_CODE is derived
from that set, and `code_leaks()` refuses a plugin that names it with nothing
else edited.

ALSO CORRECTED HERE: config.yaml's comment beside `export_price_eur_kwh` still
read "no shipped supplier publishes a dynamic injection curve". TARIFF-07
struck that claim from app/price.py and DOCS.md and did not reach config.yaml,
where it has been shipping since.

20 mutations, every one red on a named check, ledger in test_price.py below
section 17 - including a ZERO-byte one (the two legs transposed in the
VAT-asymmetry banner: no decision moves, only the sentence) and a ONE-byte one
(`card_required=True` on the injection leg). Three run over all 29 files and
red on test_price.py alone. 29/29 green.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 9c65ac2cf8 TARIFF-18: price_taxes_eur_kwh stops shipping at half the real figure
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m48s
`price_taxes_eur_kwh` shipped at 0.06 EUR/kWh with no recorded provenance -
no card, no date, no component list - and roughly HALF the true Flemish
all-in non-energy figure. It now ships at 0.11736, and the rows it is made
of are in the code rather than in this message:

  Fluvius distribution (Antwerpen)              5,35   c EUR/kWh
  Bijzondere accijns, "Alle verbruik"           4,876
  Bijdrage groene stroom en WKK Vlaanderen      1,51
  Energiebijdrage (0 EUR/MWh since 2026-08-01)  0
                                               ------
                                               11,736 c EUR/kWh = 0.11736

Eneco residential card for Flanders, September 2026, incl. 6 % VAT.
`app/price.py`'s FLEMISH_TAXES_COMPONENTS_EUR_KWH carries the rows and
test_price.py section 1b re-adds them - and also compares the total against
the card's own figures typed in the test file, so an edit that moved the
rows and the default together is still caught.

WHAT THIS IS NOT. It is not an arbitrage-correctness fix and it cannot be.
This scalar is a LEVEL component: an additive constant cancels exactly in
`max - min` and leaves the argmin where it was. TARIFF-17 shipped that proof
and it is unchanged - test_price.py 16b drives six flat scalars spanning and
exceeding the whole per-DSO range and gets the identical cheapest hour and
the identical spread to the last digit. DOCS and the CHANGELOG say so in
those words.

WHAT IT IS. A display and guard fix:

  * every number an operator reads, which at half the true value made the
    add-on look considerably better than it is; and
  * §17's negative-price guard in arbitrage.py - the one rung that tests an
    ABSOLUTE all-in price rather than a difference. It fires when
    `spot < -(markup + taxes)`, so its boundary moves -0.09 -> -0.14736
    EUR/kWh of spot. test_arbitrage.py section 2c drives both sides through
    the shipped decide() and pins the boundary from below as well.

The default is Antwerpen's real row, near the LOW end of the 0.117-0.131
per-DSO band, and that is deliberate: the error directions are not
symmetric. Too high carries a genuinely negative hour above zero and the
add-on exports into paid-for disposal - §17's own case. Too low only
declines a discharge that would have paid.

TARIFF-17's INTERACTION, WHICH HAD TO BE DECIDED. Nothing in that rung
hardcoded 0.06; it read PRICE_OPTION_DEFAULTS, so moving the default moves
what it refuses. The Supervisor sets `App.options = deepmerge(config.yaml
defaults, stored options)`, so a saved blob carries the key whether it was
typed or not - every stored 0.06 became "non-default" with nobody editing
anything, and a working Walloon or Brussels site with a taxes table would
have met SystemExit(78) on the upgrade over an inert number. price.py now
carries SUPERSEDED_TAXES_DEFAULTS_EUR_KWH = (0.06,) and validate.py reads a
superseded default as untouched too. The rung is NOT weakened: 0.1198 beside
a table is still refused by name, and the refusal now names both figures.

config.yaml and PRICE_OPTION_DEFAULTS moved together; CFG-03's tripwire
(test_price.py section 1, test_defaults_pin.py) stayed green by agreeing.
test_price.py section 0's fourth check was REWRITTEN rather than re-pointed:
it used to justify the file's own grading constants by observing that the
shipped pair was degenerate (0.06 is exactly twice 0.03). TARIFF-18 ends
that coincidence, so the sentence is no longer true and is not kept.

29/29 test files green. Mutation ledger on the PR.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 2fac0aaf06 TARIFF-17: a price component that varies by hour has somewhere to live
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m25s
`price.py` modelled the whole non-energy part of a Belgian bill as ONE flat
scalar. This adds `price_taxes_profile`, which carries the TAXES component as
a period table, and makes `assemble()` evaluate it at each point's own instant.

⚠️ THE FLAT SCALAR WAS NOT A WRONG NUMBER, AND THIS IS NOT A CORRECTION OF ONE.
The optimiser reads exactly two quantities off a series - the spread
`max - min` over the firm points, and which hour is cheapest - and an additive
constant identical in every hour cancels out of the first and leaves the second
where it was. It is provably inert. Measured, and printed by test_price.py 16b
on every run: with a flat taxes figure of 0.00, 0.0739, 0.1198, 0.1327 or 1.00
EUR/kWh the same 24-hour feed is cheapest at 13:00 in all five cases and its
spread is 0.1500 EUR/kWh in all five cases. What was missing is anywhere for an
HOUR-VARYING non-energy component to live. This is a missing capability, not a
bad constant.

Belgium has one. Fluvius distribution is a single rate - its tariff-card row
reads `Normaal | Uitsl. nacht`, where exclusive night is a separate physical
circuit and not a night register - so nothing changes for the reference site in
Flanders. The Walloon DSOs and Sibelga are on the same card with four columns,
`Enkelvoudig | Dag | Nacht | Uitsl. nacht`, and the gap is real money (c/kWh):
ORES 13,27 / 7,39; AIESH 15,17 / 8,21; Tecteo RESA 12,20 / 7,01; Sibelga
9,39 / 7,10; ORES IMPACT 2026 16,578 / 5,090.

⚠️ AND THE BANDS ARE ANTI-CORRELATED WITH WHAT THE BATTERY WANTS TO DO. The
cheap network hours are the cheap spot hours, so flattening them does not shift
the curve - it UNDERSTATES the spread and declines cycles that would have paid.
Same feed, same markup, the only difference being the taxes argument:

    flat 0.0000 / 0.0739 / 0.1198 / 0.1327 / 1.0000
                                       -> cheapest hour 13, spread 0.1500
    ORES dag 0.1327 / nacht 0.0739     -> cheapest hour 03, spread 0.1788

The regression check grades WHICH HOUR IS CHEAPEST, not the spread: an
implementation that reads the table once and adds one number to every point is
the LEVEL bucket wearing a period table - right magnitude, wrong shape - and a
spread assertion passes on it. Measured: hoisting the lookup out of
`assemble()`'s loop (+17 B) is red on six named checks in test_price.py and
GREEN in the other 28 files.

ONE GRAMMAR, NOT TWO. `static_tariff.py` already shipped the periods, the day
selectors, the tiling rule and the DST handling, so `parse_taxes_profile()` is
the same parser with the option name and the "what this number means" clause as
arguments. A second tiling rule would be a second set of 23- and 25-hour-day
bugs. test_static_tariff.py section 10 pins that two ways: by parsing every
module under `app/` and asserting the grammar is defined in exactly one of
them, and by deriving each of thirteen refusal sentences for the new option
from the old option's own sentence rather than transcribing them.

`Component.TAXES` semantics, `code_leaks()` and the double-counting guarantee
are untouched. The new key joins FRAMEWORK_KEYS, BANNED_IN_PLUGIN_CODE is
derived from that set, and a plugin that names it is refused at `register()`.
It reaches both plugins that take taxes - `custom_formula` ({ENERGY, MARKUP})
and `generic_dayahead` ({ENERGY}) - and not `manual_csv`, which is all-in: the
table is routed through `capabilities().adds`, exactly as the scalar is.

⚠️ A MALFORMED TABLE IS REFUSED AT STARTUP, NOT AT THE NEXT FETCH. It is read
on the ~30 s planning path, and a table that first fails at 03:00 is a site
that stops pricing at 03:00, which §11.4 turns into a quiet fallback
indistinguishable from a healthy fixed-tariff day. validate.py refuses three
things: a table that does not tile the day; a table set beside a NON-DEFAULT
`price_taxes_eur_kwh`, because the table wins and the scalar would then be a
number the operator typed that decides nothing; and a whole card typed in
CENTS, which is how these figures are printed. That last rung is not a
restatement of the parser's +-10 EUR/kWh bound - ORES's 13,27 trips the parser,
but Sibelga's entire card, 9,39 and 7,10, is under it and would otherwise have
started as a 9.39 EUR/kWh levy. Both rungs are graded by the REASON each gives,
and mutating them together (TEST-16) moves three rows.

NOTHING CHANGES FOR A SITE THAT DOES NOT SET IT. The option ships "", and the
scalar path is unchanged arithmetically rather than merely in intent:
test_price.py 16f reproduces the pre-TARIFF-17 expression and compares 12
capability/scalar combinations point for point with `==`.

13 mutations, every one red on a named check, ledger in test_price.py below
section 16k with byte deltas and the one equivalent mutant named. 29/29 green.

adminandClaude Opus 5 610725bed9 TARIFF-11: the plan's account of itself, corrected and put on the page
Four defects of one shape - the add-on's report of its own tariff plan was
wrong, always in the direction that flattered it - and one check, which is
the deliverable.

1. `TariffPlan.words` counted POINTS and called them HOURS. The live add-on
   logged `dynamic_dayahead from generic_dayahead, 132 h` for 132
   quarter-hourly points = 33 hours. Belgium moved to a 15-minute MTU on
   2025-10-01, so this was wrong every time it was printed, and NOT by a
   constant factor: a 40-hour soak measured 1.79x .. 5.33x, because §8.3's
   carried points are hourly while the firm ones are quarter-hourly.
   `words` now reports both quantities, plus the firm/carried split and the
   spacing, in FCST-04's *Price history* wording so the two rows can be
   compared.

2. §8.3's firm-pair refusal and the flat-tariff refusal did the same, and
   they reach an operator through `self.arb.explain()`. This is exactly the
   point<->hour conflation TARIFF-14 removed from `at()`, left standing in
   the prose. `price_forecast.py`'s §8.3 carry-forward log line carried the
   third instance - a carried-HOUR count over a POINT count - and DOCS
   quotes it verbatim, so it is corrected here too.

3. The plan reached no HTTP surface at all. `rows["Tariff"]` was
   `static_status()`'s 30 s-tick sentence and never saw the provider plan -
   it read 'no static profile' at all 802 soak samples on a site whose feed
   was answering. It now carries the plan's shape. ⚠️ The two sources are
   kept distinguishable: the plan half is stamped with its own age, measured
   from `tariff_at`, because it can be up to TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S (5400 s) old.
   FCST-04 pins that row to DOCS as a pair; DOCS moves in this commit.

4. `main.py`'s "if and only if" was false. `cycle()` returns at the input
   hold before `self.arb = None`, so an armed site read
   `off (arbitrage_enabled)` - naming an option that is on - and, after one
   completed cycle, showed a decision up to 15 s stale as a current one. The
   row now reads the OPTION and separates three facts; `cycle_at` and
   `arb_at` make "this cycle reached no decision" an observation.

THE DELIVERABLE IS THE CHECK. All four survived 29 green suites because
nothing graded the strings a human is shown. `test_price.py` section 12
renders through the shipped `status_payload()`, parses each number out of
its OWN SLOT and compares it against a figure computed from the fixture's
construction parameters - not from the property the row was built out of
(habit 4), and not as a substring of a sentence the same file wrote (habit
14). The fixture set is four plan shapes and the check computes and prints
the field pairs no fixture separates. The *Arbitrage* row's states are
driven through real cycles with a sensor answering None and graded by
INEQUALITY.

No behaviour changed: no threshold, refusal rung, claim or setpoint moved.

MUTATIONS: 16, no survivors, one at +0 B (the risky delta) and red. Two were
found by the battery INSIDE THIS CARD'S OWN CHECK: a -190 B survivor whose
fixture varied two things at once (habit 4), and a mutation whose red was a
TRACEBACK in an f-string operand and therefore named nothing (FCST-06). Both
closed; the table is on the PR.

All 29 test files green.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 a991438e40 TARIFF-13: the coverage figure beside the peak stops resetting at a restart
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m27s
The capacity-tariff status row printed a peak read from SQLite next to a count
of banked quarters read from PROCESS MEMORY - `PeakTracker.recorded`, an `int`
set to 0 in `__init__` and counted up inside `sync()`. A 40-hour soak caught
what that means at a driven restart, on both instances independently:

  before: 2026-09: peak 365 W, set by the quarter at 2026-09-11T18:45:00+00:00
          - 10 % of the 3500 W soft limit; 120 quarter(s) banked
  after : 2026-09: peak 365 W, set by the quarter at 2026-09-11T18:45:00+00:00
          - 10 % of the 3500 W soft limit;   0 quarter(s) banked

Reproduced here before anything changed, through the real Controller and a real
restart - a second Controller object against the same file on disk - at 12 -> 0
with 12 rows standing in `quarter_blocks`.

The peak is durable and was never wrong. The COUNT is what says how much of the
billing month that peak covers, and 365 W over 120 quarters and 365 W over 0
quarters are different claims about the same number. Mid-month, after every
restart, the page made the weaker claim while displaying the stronger one's
value. That is TARIFF-01's own argument - an unreadable store must not read as a
zero peak, because a zero peak is disarming - one column over.

`PeakStore.banked_count(month)` asks the database, and `recorded` is a property
over it. Two more defects in the same variable fell out once it was driven, and
neither was in the ticket: it was never scoped to a MONTH (on 1 October the row
still showed September's tally beside October's empty month - measured), and it
missed the block `restore()` banks from the checkpoint, which never passes
through `sync()`.

⚠️ NOT 0, AND NOT None, WHEN THE STORE WILL NOT ANSWER. `banked_count()` returns
None and the row renders `an unreadable number of quarter(s) banked`.
`f"{None} quarter(s) banked"` was rejected because it reads as the same zero.
`0 quarter(s) banked` stays true and reachable - it is what a month nothing has
been written to says, and the two are asserted to be different text.

⚠️ THE DEDUPE IS NOT REMOVED WITH THE COUNTER. `_seen` still stops `cycle()`'s
once-a-second `sync()` re-banking a block `P1Ingest.blocks` keeps for a day. The
check that graded it asserted `recorded == 1` - the dedupe and the figure
reporting it were the same variable - and now grades `sync()`'s RETURN, because
counting rows cannot see a re-bank at all (PRIMARY KEY no-op).

THE TIE RULE, DECIDED RATHER THAN EMERGENT: at equal wattage the EARLIEST
quarter keeps the attribution. No bill and no guard moves - `peak_w` is still
only ever raised, the `>` term is untouched, SAFETY-07 reads the same watts.
The two readers DID disagree: the upsert's strict `>` kept whichever tied block
was WRITTEN first while `recompute_month()` has always kept the earliest, the
same only while blocks arrive in time order, and measured to diverge (09:45
against 09:00) fed newest-first.

⚠️ AND THE SOAK'S DRIFTING QUARTER WAS NOT A TIE. Six exactly equal 365.0 W
quarters re-attributed zero times on the shipped tree - `>` is strict. What
moved it was a real new maximum BELOW THE ROW'S OWN RESOLUTION: the row renders
whole watts, so 365.0000001 W is a new peak to the database and the same 365 W
to the reader. Left alone deliberately, and pinned so it is not re-diagnosed.

test_tariff.py parts 11 and 12. 12 mutations, all red, listed on the PR; M2 -
`banked_count()`'s sqlite3.Error arm returning 0 - was a SURVIVOR at -3 B on the
first battery, because a handle that never opened short-circuits before any SQL
runs and nothing reached the except arm. Closed with an open store whose table
is dropped under it, with a precondition that the same call answered 4 first.

main.py is NOT touched - TARIFF-11 holds its status rows. The row picks this up
without editing because `recorded` is an attribute access and is now a property.
The residual is stated in DECISIONS §3: `recorded` answers for now() while the
peak follows `checks(when=...)`, and the shipped install has exactly one call
site - `self.checks()` with no argument, main.py:4359 - where they are the same
month, so the live page is correct and durable. `recorded_in(when)` is shipped
and the row's move onto it is one token, for whoever holds main.py next; part 10
pins the present behaviour against a row count taken from `quarter_blocks` so
the gap cannot be quietly forgotten.

Claude Opus 5 ac9854886b TARIFF-15: your own tariff card, as two coefficients the card itself grades
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m14s
A Belgian dynamic contract prices energy as `B x index + A`, and the two
coefficients exist on exactly one artefact: the customer's own tariff card.
There is no machine-readable source for them anywhere - CREG's consumer
tariff-card pages 404, CREG Scan is a JS wizard, the annual report has the
supplier list without per-product coefficients, VREG was unreachable, and
every coefficient found in research came off a supplier's own PDF, one
image-only. So nothing can be scraped and a per-supplier plugin would have no
source for its numbers, which is why TARIFF-07 withdrew three of them. The
customer is the only party who can see their own coefficients; they type them.

New provider `custom_formula`, one new option `price_formula` (a JSON string,
the `static_profile` precedent exactly), and a new module
`app/custom_formula.py`. The index path is `generic_dayahead`'s, not a second
one: the URL/override decision is now one shared `dayahead_feed_url()` both
plugins call, same feed, same Brussels-calendar range, same columnar parser,
same declared egress hosts.

It declares {ENERGY, MARKUP}, NOT ALL_IN. A card's Tariefformule line is the
energy component alone - Eneco tabulates network tariffs and levies
separately, ENGIE states the formula excludes network, distribution,
transport, levies and excise - so ALL_IN would lie for every operator who
typed what their card says and would drop the taxes from every hour
(0.2125 -> 0.1555 EUR/kWh, measured).

THE CARD IS THE GRADER, and that is why this is safe to ship. The framework
already mechanises that a PLUGIN cannot double-count. This introduces a risk
none of those guards can see because it is config, not code: the OPERATOR
double-counting, by folding network charges into `offset` while
price_taxes_eur_kwh carries them too. So validate.py recomputes the card's own
printed price from the operator's coefficients at startup and refuses to start
unless the two agree to within 0.01, naming the discrepancy. An inflated
offset cannot pass: 15.55 becomes 28.27. The same check catches VAT omitted,
VAT doubled, a transposed digit and a unit mismatch between the two sides.

And the limit, in the same sentence as the claim: it grades the coefficients
against the card, NOT the card against reality. A consistent-but-wrong pair
passes. A second refusal covers the one unit error the first cannot see - the
one applied to both sides at once - by bounding the card's own point to
0.02-1.00 EUR/kWh. Its FLOOR is applied to the energy figure rather than the
all-in one because the shipped 0.06 of taxes is three times that floor and
would carry a hundredfold error over it alone; found by writing the mutation,
not by review (M10, +0 B).

The market's own arithmetic, reproduced through the shipped code:

  Eneco (0.102 x 133.9905 + 1) x 1.06 = 15.5471   card prints 15,55
  ENGIE (0.1   x  61.96   + 0.9) x 1.06 = 7.5218  card prints 7,522

NO EXPRESSION EVALUATION OF ANY KIND. The string is settable over HTTP through
the add-on's own ingress page, so eval on it is RCE in a root container
holding SUPERVISOR_TOKEN and driving an inverter over RS485 - but the deciding
argument is that an expression is UNVERIFIABLE: two coefficients can be graded
against the card, an arbitrary expression cannot be graded against anything,
so it would make the invisible-wrong-coefficient problem strictly worse. An
unknown field is REFUSED rather than ignored, so `"expr"` is told it does not
exist. Future shapes become named fields, never a grammar. test_price.py 15f
walks the module's AST for eval/exec/compile/__import__/literal_eval and
exercises the scanner's red direction on every run.

Refused at startup: card absent or out by >0.01; `units` absent (no default);
factor == 0 (every spread 0, arbitrage silently never fires - the message
points at static_profile); factor < 0 (inverts the market); vat_pct outside
0-30 (0 stays legitimate); non-finite or non-numeric; unknown field, index or
resolution; the plausibility band. A card older than ~6 months WARNS and does
not refuse - ENGIE freezes coefficients for a contract's duration. Negative
output prices are not refused anywhere.

A startup preview logs the next 24 h as `index EUR/MWh -> all-in EUR/kWh` with
min/median/max and the day's spread, through a new default-silent
`PriceProvider.startup_preview()` hook - only the plugin knows what went in to
its own arithmetic. Emitted once per process, and a preview that raises cannot
cost the site its prices.

`custom_formula` joins the config.yaml enum through the DERIVED set
PROVIDERS | RETIRED_PROVIDERS | {"off"}, not a hardcoded list. Both
translations describe the option and the new id. DOCS.md replaces the
"planned" sentence with the shape, a worked example from a real card, a real
startup transcript and the limit of the check stated beside the claim.

22 mutations, one per check added, no survivors - MUTATION.md carries the
ledger. M13 (the preview's index column) was a -13 B survivor of the whole
suite on the first attempt because the check graded the HEADING and not the
row; it is graded on a rendered row now. All 29 suites green.

adminandClaude Opus 5 f620f7cf80 TARIFF-07: three plugins that never fetched a price are withdrawn, and a site configured on one is told so
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m12s
engie_dynamic, totalenergies_dynamic and eneco_eddy are removed from PROVIDERS
and from every surface that listed them. They did not stop working - they never
worked. Re-verified by hand on 2026-09-13 before deleting anything: 404 with
Kong's "no Route matched with those values"; a TLS handshake that fails because
api.totalenergies.be is absent from the certificate's SAN list; 404 with an
empty body. All three are also structurally impossible - the coefficients are
per-contract and behind a customer login, there is no regulator index, and
"Eddy" is not an Eneco product at all.

⚠️ BACKWARD-INCOMPATIBLE. A config legal on the current version is refused on
the next. That is the point of the change: §11.4 turned every failed fetch into
a silent fall back, so a site on one of these ids has been running on
static_profile - or on nothing - since the day it was set, with nothing on its
status page ever differing from a working provider that never found a cheap
hour. validate.py now refuses a retired id with a message naming the id, the
endpoint, what that endpoint answers, which tariff has really been in force,
and what to set instead. No version number is picked here; that depends on a
fact about the live box.

⚠️ config.yaml's price_provider enum deliberately KEEPS all three ids. The
Supervisor validates the options file against that enum before the add-on
starts, so removing them would make an existing config schema-invalid and the
refusal above would never be reached on exactly the sites that need it.
PROVIDERS is two; the enum stays six; test_price.py asserts the schema offers
exactly PROVIDERS | RETIRED_PROVIDERS | {"off"}, derived rather than typed, and
register() refuses to re-register a retired id.

PriceProduct.REALTIME, _WIDE, Uncertainty.REALTIME_PRODUCT and WIDEN_FACTOR's
2.5 are KEPT with no shipped declarer - it is the AC2 seam, and a reviewer
finding a mechanism with zero callers would reasonably delete it. Recorded in
DECISIONS/TARIFF-07-withdrawing-three-plugins.md and pinned by a check.

False claims corrected: every "Belgian imbalance product" claim about
eneco_eddy (DOCS.md, price_forecast.py, price_history.py, static_tariff.py,
FCST-04, CHANGELOG - the two released entries annotated in place rather than
rewritten); the quarter-hourly examples now cite Belgian day-ahead, which
really does settle per quarter since the 15-minute MTU; and
export_price_eur_kwh's "no shipped supplier publishes a dynamic injection
curve", which is false - Eneco publishes 0,1 x BELPEX-H - 1,188 and ENGIE
(B x eSpot_15) - A, same two-coefficient shape with its own coefficients and
its own VAT treatment, so the scalar is a simplification and not the market.

DOCS.md's provider table is two rows and now says honestly what a Belgian
dynamic customer should do today, including that generic_dayahead cannot
express B x spot + A and that price_markup_eur_kwh: float(0,1) could not hold a
negative offset. The formula provider is referenced as planned, not built.

_points_from_json() went with the plugins it served: it read a shape no feed
anybody here has ever reached publishes. The one place it survives is a
negative stimulus, named row_shape_body().

Nine mutations driven, all red; table in the decision record. 29/29 suites
green.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 028c3e53fb Merge release/1.0 (TARIFF-12) into TARIFF-14
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m13s
Second base move while this card was open: 559f0eb -> a6e64fb. Only
CHANGELOG.md conflicted; test_arbitrage.py auto-merged (TARIFF-12 used
section 8b, this card uses 10, so the two do not collide).

CHANGELOG: both entries under the single ## Unreleased in MERGE ORDER -
TARIFF-12's row and section precede this branch's, because it landed
first. No version number is picked; PKG-06/07's note stands untouched.

WHAT TARIFF-12 CHANGES FOR THIS CARD - written out in decision note §8
rather than left silent, because the question is a fair one.

A served plan can now be up to TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S = 3 * TARIFF_REFRESH_S
= 5400 s old, where before it was at most one refresh interval, and
at() is what answers "what does it cost right now" out of that older
plan.

* PER-POINT SPAN: unaffected, structurally. Every window is derived
  from the neighbours' ABSOLUTE start instants - datetimes in a frozen
  dataclass in a tuple, which cannot move - and _cover_table() runs
  once at construction over data that cannot change. A plan's AGE is a
  property of fetched_at/tariff_at, never of a window. The index cannot
  go stale, which is a small positive under TARIFF-12: a kept plan now
  lives longer and there is nothing in it that needed recomputing.

* ONE-HOUR CAP: unaffected. It bites only at a hole; walking further
  into a series crosses more windows, each resolved on its own
  neighbours.

* THE TAIL: reachable for the first time, and §2's choice survives it.
  At the shipped 48 h horizon the tail is ~46.5 h beyond anything a
  90-minute-stale plan can be asked about. But price_horizon_h is
  int(1,72), so a 1 h horizon is a SUPPORTED configuration, and a
  90-minute serve-stale window against a 1 h series puts `now` past the
  end. Under the chosen rule a quarter-hourly 1 h series ends at :45,
  its window closes on the hour, at() raises Absence, _act() idles and
  §11.4 sends the site to the static profile. Under the REJECTED flat
  one-hour tail the same stale plan would have traded against the :45
  print for up to 45 minutes after the interval it describes had ended.
  So TARIFF-12 does not weaken the decision - it is the first thing
  that makes it reachable, and it selects the same answer. The rule
  should be re-read if TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S is ever widened again.

* TariffPlan.from_feed is a pure predicate on `origin` and TARIFF-12
  keeps or replaces a WHOLE PLAN OBJECT. It never splices two reads
  into one series, so it cannot hand at() an unsorted or duplicated
  point list.

RE-GRADED ON THIS BASE, not carried over: all 29 test files green;
app/price.py byte-identical to the TARIFF-10 merge (90d8ca31f7c0109d,
85953 B) because TARIFF-12 does not touch it; M1 re-driven at +68 B,
red on the same 24 named checks across both files; M3 re-driven at
ZERO BYTES, red on the same 4. Each purged before the run and reverted
with the fingerprint re-checked, from a card-specific harness at
/home/homelab/.cache/t14-mut/ with a mktemp backup inside it.

This branch contributes zero diff to app/main.py and app/static_tariff.py.

checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m10s
CI on PR #80 was NOT a test failure. The workflow's "grade the merge, not
the branch" step refused the PR because it does not apply, and said so
itself: "REFUSED: refs/pull/80/head does not merge into release/1.0.
NOTHING HAS BEEN TESTED. This is not a test failure - no test ran."
Conflicts were CHANGELOG.md and test_price.py; app/price.py auto-merged.

CONFLICTS RESOLVED

* CHANGELOG.md - both entries belong under ## Unreleased. TARIFF-10's
  table row and section come first because it landed first. No version
  number is picked here; PKG-06/07's note stands untouched.

* test_price.py - BOTH cards appended a section "13". Nothing is
  dropped: TARIFF-10's stays 13, this card's is renumbered 14, and
  TARIFF-10's temp-directory teardown stays at the end of the file. The
  two share no fixture, option dict or helper name.

WHAT TARIFF-10 CHANGES FOR THIS CARD - nothing in the reasoning, and the
check is recorded rather than asserted (decision note §7).

In app/price.py the two do not meet: TARIFF-10 added provider_id() and
provider_configured() beside price_option() and routed load_prices()
through them - the option-reading layer, touching nothing in _Series,
at(), covers(), window() or _cover_table(). The merged at() is
byte-identical to the one the mutations were driven against.

Behaviourally TARIFF-10 makes run_tariff_refresh() run with arbitrage
OFF, so a provider-configured site now has a standing plan - and
therefore a _Series - where before it had none. It does NOT add an at()
consumer to the 30 s tick: static_status() builds a STATIC plan (hourly,
immune), main.py calls only plan.words on the fetched plan, and
price_forecast.price_permits()/begin_phase() have no caller in main.py
at all. So TARIFF-10 neither creates nor closes any exposure this card
is about - it enlarges the defect's reach the moment such a site arms
trading, which strengthens the fix without changing it.

RE-GRADED ON THE MERGED TREE, not carried over

* all 29 test files green;
* all EIGHT mutations re-driven, purged before each run, each reverted
  with the fingerprint re-checked. Same verdicts and same red-check
  counts as before the merge: M1 (the shipped one-hour scan, +68 B) red
  on 24 named checks across both files; M3 (the ZERO-BYTE tail rule) red
  on 4; M2/M4/M6 on 1 each, M5 on 2, M7 on 16, M8 on 14.
* Clean app/price.py on the merged tree: 90d8ca31f7c0109d, 85953 B.
* None of TARIFF-10's 650 new lines of checks moves under any of the
  eight - they grade resolve_tariff()'s reachability from a
  configuration, not the lookup.

Claude f5ea39784d Merge release/1.0 (TARIFF-10) into TARIFF-12
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m16s
CHANGELOG.md was the only conflict: both entries belong under the same
`## Unreleased` heading, TARIFF-10's first because it merged first. No
version number picked.

app/main.py auto-merged, and was re-read because of it. TARIFF-10 changed
WHICH installs run `run_tariff_refresh()` (`arbitrage.enabled(opts)` ->
`tariff_refresh_wanted(opts)`); this card changed what that task does on
a failed fetch. Nothing in the keep/replace reasoning changed, and the
two newly reachable configurations are now DRIVEN in test_arbitrage.py
8b rather than reasoned about:

  * a provider configured with trading DISARMED is the case the guard
    was designed for, and needs no second fixture because nothing on
    this path reads `arbitrage_enabled` at all - asserted over the AST's
    symbols and non-docstring constants, after two drafts of that check
    went red on a CORRECT tree for matching the word "arbitrage" in a
    docstring and in a log line;
  * `price_provider: off` + a `static_profile` resolves to the
    CONFIGURED product (`origin: "static"`), so `standing.from_feed` is
    false on every refresh and the guard never latches - driven twice in
    a row, because a guard that latched there would freeze a static
    site's plan at its first window for the life of the install.

Also: the kept-plan log line said "arbitrage stops with it", which after
TARIFF-10 is false on a site that fetches without trading; it now says
"arbitrage, where it is armed, stops with it". The keep decision is
strictly downstream of `resolve_tariff()`, so the §8.3 carry into
price_history - TARIFF-10's whole point - is unaffected either way.

All 29 suites green on the merged tree, including TARIFF-10's new
test_price.py section 13. All eleven mutations RE-DRIVEN on the merged
tree rather than carried over: eleven red, no survivors, every revert
fingerprinted. M11 is new - making the guard conditional on

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 7f2c4e20e1 TARIFF-14: the point whose own interval covers the instant
checks / unit (pull_request) Failing after 2s
`_Series.at()` asked `s <= u < s + 1 h` of every point IN LIST ORDER and
returned the FIRST match. On the hourly shape every fixture in this
repository carried before TARIFF-08 that is right by accident. Belgium
moved to a 15-minute MTU on 2025-10-01 and the live day-ahead feed
returns 96 points at 900 s, where it is wrong twice over - measured
against the shipped code at 5059e28:

    series: 02:00=0.10  02:15=0.11  02:30=0.12  02:45=0.13  03:00=0.14

    ask +15min -> 02:00  0.10   <-- WRONG (wanted 02:15)
    ask +60min -> 02:15  0.11   <-- WRONG (wanted 03:00)
    ask +75min -> 02:30  0.12   <-- WRONG (wanted 03:15)

Inside the first hour the :00 point wins because its hour has not run
out. From the second hour on the answer is not even the top of the hour
- the first point still inside its own hour wins - so the error
compounds with depth into the series.

`arbitrage._act()` tests `here.start == v.cheapest.start` /
`== v.dearest.start` to decide whether this interval is the buy one or
the sell one. That identity almost never held, so the strategy idled
through exactly the interval it exists to trade, and read §8.3's
`here.provisional` and §17's `price < 0` off the same wrong point.
`static_tariff.py` emits hourly points, so static sites were never
affected; this is reachable only down the dynamic path TARIFF-08/09
made work.

THE RULE: a point covers from its own start until the next point's
start, and never more than one hour. Quarter-hourly takes 900 s,
hourly is unchanged, and a MIXED series - FCST-04's carry-forward puts
hourly carried points beside quarter-hourly firm ones, spacing
[900, 3600] in 70 % of soak samples - takes each point's OWN gap.

The one-hour cap is load-bearing: FCST-04 leaves an hour OUT when
nothing published it and yesterday has no value, and `at()` raising
Absence for it is what sends the caller to the static profile (§11.4).
Uncapped, "until the next point's start" would stretch the point before
a three-hour hole across the whole hole and answer every instant in it
with a stale price.

THE LAST POINT is given the same span as the point before it (one hour
when it is the only point). A flat one-hour tail would answer 00:30
TOMORROW with today's 23:45 price. The cost - a mixed series ending at
the firm/carried seam loses its last 45 minutes to Absence - is argued
in DECISIONS/TARIFF-14-the-window-a-point-covers.md §2 rather than
buried; the direction is the safe one.

`at()` now reads a point's NEIGHBOURS, so it would depend on
sortedness. It establishes that itself: the lookup index is sorted by
UTC start once, at construction, so no caller's list order reaches it.
A series handed its 96 points in reverse answers identically, and that
is a check. `covers()` shared the defect exactly - it has no rule of
its own, it asks `at()` - and is fixed by the same change; `window()`
did not, and its docstring now says why.

Nothing about §9.3 or a point's `start` changed. PricePoint still has
three fields; the span is derived from the neighbours, never stored.

Graded by test_price.py section 13 (900 s, 3600 s, mixed, holes, the
tail, caller order, duplicate starts, covers()/window(), the no-data
contract) and end to end by test_arbitrage.py section 10, which drives
decide() over a 96-point quarter-hourly day whose cheapest and dearest
quarters are deliberately NOT on a whole hour, plus §17, §8.3 and the
mixed series. Eight mutations, all red, including a ZERO-BYTE one on
the tail rule; byte deltas and what the arbitrage file could not see
are in the decision note §6. All 29 test files green.

Claude c81289527f TARIFF-12: a returned degradation is not a refresh
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m12s
`run_tariff_refresh()` promised in its own docstring that "a failure does
not clear the plan", and enforced it with `except Exception` - a branch a
supplier outage never reaches. `load_prices()` states the reason in its
own words: it "RETURNS, NEVER RAISES, for every failure a site can
actually have", because a degradation arriving as a traceback into the
planning tick would stop the controller regulating over an expired
certificate. So a dead feed RETURNS a §11.4 plan, the `try` succeeds, and
the assignment below it overwrote the good plan unconditionally. With
`static_profile` unset - the shipped default, and the normal state of a
dynamic-tariff site - `_degrade()` returns `TariffPlan(no_data, None,
"none")`: a complete 48-hour plan replaced by nothing, at the FIRST
failed fetch, ~27 minutes after the last good one. `TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S`
(5400 s) never governed anything and there was no serve-stale window at
all.

Fourth card in one family: FCST-04's M4 (`not ok` only), FCST-05's HIGH
(`(JSONDecodeError, OSError)` only), FCST-06 (`not self.ok` only), and
now `except Exception` only, for a path that never raises.

The question is now asked once, after the attempt, from the evidence
that exists - FCST-06's answer, one module over. The evidence is
`TariffPlan.from_feed` (did this resolution observe the configured feed)
and the shipped `fresh_tariff_plan()`, reused rather than transcribed. A
degradation replaces a standing observation only once that observation
has aged out, so `TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S` is now the serve-stale window it
reads like.

A §11.4 static fallback does not replace a fresh provider plan either,
although it carries real prices: every point `_degrade()` builds is
`provisional=True`, so `firm_points()` is empty, `arbitrage()` refuses
and `cheap_now()` is False - everything a consumer may act on is already
off - while a day-ahead price for a given hour does not change once
published. The rule is deliberately not symmetrical: a standing plan
that is itself a degradation IS replaced, or an outage would freeze the
operator's static profile at the window it was first generated for.

`tariff_at` does not move on a kept plan. It is the moment of the fetch
that produced the plan standing, `fresh_tariff_plan()` judges the age
from it, and an unmoved timestamp is the only thing that tells a kept
plan from a freshly fetched one.

test_arbitrage.py section 8b drives the whole chain with nothing stubbed
but the socket: the transport raises the way aiohttp does, load_prices()
returns no_data, _degrade() builds the §11.4 plan, and the shipped
run_tariff_refresh() decides. A check that patched resolve_tariff to
RAISE would have passed against the defect. Ten mutations, ten reds, no
survivors; 29/29 suites green.

Out of scope and unchanged: the persisted price store still does not
back the plan during an outage (FCST-03), and the status banner and the
Arbitrage row's lag are separately carded.

adminandClaude Opus 5 e6c45a61e7 TARIFF-10: configuring a price provider is what fetches prices
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m19s
amain() started the background tariff refresh only when arbitrage_enabled was
on, and that option ships false. run_tariff_refresh is the only caller of
resolve_tariff(), which is the only caller of price_history.carry() - so on a
shipped install with a price provider configured nothing was ever fetched: no
plan resolved, /data/price_history.json never created, the Price history status
row reading `empty` for the life of the install, and TARIFF-09's short-horizon
warning unable to fire because there was no fetch to warn about. Measured over
a 40 h two-instance soak on one feed: 0 requests and `present: false` across all
802 samples, against a resolved 132-point plan on the instance with arbitrage
armed.

git log -S puts the refresh task, its arbitrage.enabled() guard AND the DOCS.md
sentence saying a configured provider still fetches in the same commit - OPT-04,
bdd7f18; config.yaml has carried the claim since TARIFF-02, 852fc7c. The prose
and the code disagreed from the moment both existed and nothing compared them.
config.yaml and both translations additionally carried a claim that had rotted
the other way - "nothing consumes the price series yet", untrue since OPT-04
shipped the consumer. All four surfaces now say what the add-on does, and a
check pairs DOCS against the DRIVEN behaviour so they cannot drift again.

The gate is tariff_refresh_wanted() = provider_configured(opts) or
arbitrage.enabled(opts), and the `or` is a STRICT WIDENING: every configuration
that started the task before still starts it. The second term is not there for
symmetry. price_provider: off + a static_profile + arbitrage_enabled: true is a
configuration validate.py explicitly ACCEPTS and it trades - measured, at
cycle_cost_threshold_eur 0.05 on a 0.20/0.284 day/night profile,
ARBITRAGE_CHARGE -5000 W. Gating on the provider alone would leave that site's
tariff_plan at None forever and answer "no tariff plan has been resolved yet" on
every cycle, silently disarming a strategy the UI says is running.

Nothing acquires a periodic HTTPS call. With price_provider off, resolve_tariff()
answers out of the static profile without opening a socket (driven and counted:
0 requests), and the true shipped default - no provider, no trading - starts no
task at all. What decides whether a request leaves the machine is price_provider
and only that. The literal reading of the ticket's AC2 - drop the `or` - is one
token and is recorded in DECISIONS §3 with what it costs, for the owner.

AND NOTHING TRADES THAT DID NOT TRADE BEFORE. cycle()'s
`if arbitrage.enabled(self.o):` is untouched, and that is graded directly rather
than inferred from the gate having moved: Controller.cycle() is driven on a
resolved provider plan with the peak guard asserted clear, and arbitrage_enabled
is the only option that moves between the rows - false/false give +180 W
("loop -> 180 W") on both the cheap-now and dear-now plans, true/true give
-5000 W and +5000 W ("arbitrage -> ...").

TariffPlan.cheap_now() is deliberately NOT wired, decided rather than inherited
(DECISIONS §4). A provider-backed plan now exists on every configured site, so
Cheap window could read it - and Cheap window feeds the maintenance cycle's grid
top-up, the one place a price moves energy without trading being armed. On a
provider-only site static_status() returns False on every cycle, so adopting it
would take a paid grid top-up from never to sometimes. self.cheap stays on
static_status(); what adoption would take is listed rather than left implied.

THE CHECK THAT WOULD HAVE CAUGHT THIS is test_price.py section 13, and it grades
REACHABILITY FROM A CONFIGURATION rather than the shape of an `if` - the `if` was
exactly what somebody meant to write. amain()'s guards are EVALUATED against real
option dicts, whatever they are spelled as; the call graph under app/ is walked
to see whether the tasks those guards start arrive at resolve_tariff(), wherever
it has moved to; and then the fetch is DRIVEN with a counting transport, because
a graph is an argument and a counted request is an observation. What the
instrument cannot see is printed on every run, largest hole first.

Evidence: 29/29 green. 13 mutations in 14 runs - M10 re-run as M10b once it was
closed - each applied to a fresh cp -a of the clean worktree rather than
reverted (MUTATION.md habit 18), purged, :ro, -B. The
shipped defect - the gate back at arbitrage.enabled(opts), -4 B - is red on
seven named checks. Dropping the `or` (-27 B) is red on the strict-widening row;
removing cycle()'s trading gate (+8 B) is red on both AC3 rows. The instrument
is mutated too (habit 16): _reaches() always True and _task_sites() returning []
are both +0 B and both red.

Two findings are recorded rather than rounded off. provider_id() dropping
.strip() (-8 B) was a real SURVIVOR across four price suites - nothing fed a
padded provider id - and is closed in this commit by the padded-id pair; and the
first draft of the AC3 fixture fed five minutes of P1 telegrams, so whether the
peak guard was blind depended on where the wall clock sat inside the billing
quarter and the armed baseline failed to trade on some runs. It is 900 s now,
and the guard's clear state is a check rather than an assumption.

Claude Opus 5 17b7b447c4 TARIFF-09: ask the day-ahead feed for the horizon it was handed
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m10s
`generic_dayahead.fetch()` accepted `since` and `until` and requested the
bare `?bzn=BE`, which answers ONE Brussels day. Everything past today was
then filled from yesterday's profile by FCST-04, flagged provisional, and
§8.3 drops provisional hours from the trade set -- so the optimiser never
saw tomorrow as firm, at any hour of any day, and nothing reported it.

Measured on 4257e38 at 2026-09-10T09:00+02:00, 48 h horizon, live feed,
yesterday seeded through the shipped read path:

    60 firm points (15 whole hours) + 33 carried hours of 48 requested
    carried: 24 h on 2026-09-11, 9 h on 2026-09-12
    arbitrage(0.10): buy 11:45 and sell 19:45 -- BOTH on 2026-09-10
    firm local days = [2026-09-10]

The ceiling was structural: with a one-day window, at hour H a 48 h horizon
is at most 24-H firm and 24+H carried. At 23:00 that is 1 and 47, and the
remaining firm spread (0.0464 EUR/kWh) no longer clears the default 0.10
threshold, so arbitrage is refused outright. FCST-04's fill covers the
window until the ~13:00-14:00 CET auction; it was never meant to cover
every hour of every day.

The data exists and the endpoint serves it: verified 2026-09-10T07:45:49Z,
`?bzn=BE&start=2026-09-09&end=2026-09-10` returns 192 quarter-hours across
two local days. Committed unmodified beside TARIFF-08's captures, with the
URL, retrieval time and sha256 recorded and RE-DERIVED by the replay.

THE RANGE IS DERIVED ON THE BRUSSELS CALENDAR, not the UTC one. 22:30 UTC
in summer is already tomorrow in Belgium, so a UTC-derived start asks for
the day the controller has just left and drops the day it is standing in,
for the last one or two hours of every day. That is `_bdate()`'s lesson one
layer up with a worse consequence: `_bdate()` misfiles an hour, this never
fetches it. `until` is exclusive, so local midnight belongs to the day
before it; an inverted window collapses to one day rather than a backwards
range. Both ends are graded and both are driven red by mutation.

After, same code path and window, a feed serving both days: 39 firm hours
and 9 carried (was 15 and 33), firm across TWO Brussels days, and the
permitted cycle buys on one day and sells on the next.

`price_feed_url` IS THE EXACT URL AND THE PLUGIN APPENDS NOTHING. `start`/
`end` are this feed's spelling and the provider declares a second host
whose parameters are different, so merging would produce a request nobody
typed and the short horizon anyway. The cost is real, so it is not silent:
a WARNING on the shipped logger at fetch time names the consequence and the
start..end that would otherwise have been asked for. `dated_feed_url()`
refuses to append to a base that already carries a query string, so the
blind-append shape cannot come back by edit.
DECISIONS/TARIFF-09-the-range-and-the-override.md argues the alternative.

Before publication nothing regresses and it is graded, not assumed: at
09:46 CEST the two-day request came back byte-identical to the one-day
body, and that stays a `series` of what exists with FCST-04 filling the
rest. A `no_data` there would switch a working site's arbitrage off every
morning -- the mutation that adds that rule is red by name.

The plugin contract is still NOT enforced: three shipped plugins point at
endpoints nobody has verified, and a rule obliging them to pass a range
would be satisfied by an invented parameter name -- TARIFF-08's defect
moved from the response to the request. Which plugins consume the range is
pinned as a literal instead.

11 mutations, all red, no survivors; each applied to a fresh copy of the
tree rather than reverted, through tools/mutation_run.sh. One is +0 B (a
single price digit inside the committed capture) and the re-derived sha256
catches it. MUTATION.md habit 20 records why a fixture could never have
reached this: a captured body is the answer to a URL, and no property of a
body says which URL was asked for. All 29 suites green.

adminandClaude Opus 5 6eba18968c TARIFF-08: the day-ahead feed is read in the shape it actually publishes
checks / unit (pull_request) Failing after 3s
`generic_dayahead` could not read one byte of `api.energy-charts.info`, and
never had been able to. `_points_from_json()` asks for `doc["data"]`, a list of
`{start, price_eur_mwh}` objects; that document does not exist. Fetched live on
2026-09-10 the feed returns COLUMNAR parallel arrays and no `data` key at all -
`unix_seconds` (96 UTC epoch seconds, 900 s apart), `price` (96 floats),
`unit: 'EUR / MWh'`. Driving the shipped parser against that body:
`SourceUnavailable: the feed carried no 'data' list`. It is the only shipped
provider whose endpoint anybody has reached, so dynamic pricing did not work.

AND §11.4 MADE IT SILENT, which is why it survived to release: a parse error
becomes no_data, becomes the static profile, becomes arbitrage off - the
CORRECT degradation, saying nothing about the cause. A site would have sat on
the fallback indefinitely.

AND THE SUITE COULD NOT SEE IT, because every fixture was built from the
parser's own assumption. test_price.py, test_price_history.py and
test_static_tariff.py each built `json.dumps({"data": [...]})`, a shape invented
here and published by nobody, so the checks graded the parser against the
parser's guess - a closed loop no coverage inside it could ever have escaped.
MUTATION.md habit 19 records it as the fourteenth instance of habit 4 and the
first where the fixture and the code under test shared a SHAPE, not a number.

WHAT CHANGED

* `_points_from_columnar_json()` - a SECOND function, not a sniff. A parser that
  decides which document it received is one that can decide wrong, and a
  wrong-but-parseable response then becomes a price. Feeding the row shape to
  `generic_dayahead` is now a graded no_data.
* Unequal arrays are refused in both directions, with the two lengths in the
  reason. `zip()` stops at the shorter list silently, and a truncated `price`
  array would have produced a real series missing the evening peak - traded on
  as complete, where no data at all switches arbitrage off.
* A unit that is not EUR/MWh is refused. The plugin converts with a fixed
  0.001, and `MAX_PLAUSIBLE_EUR_KWH` only bounds prices that are too LARGE.
* `unix_seconds` are read as UTC instants explicitly; §9.3's Brussels rendering
  stays in `assemble()` rather than being copied into the plugin, where a
  mutation could not tell it from a no-op (M4 proved exactly that on a first
  draft, and the line was removed rather than fenced).
* A published null is dropped and logged with a count; an all-null body is
  no_data named by this parser rather than by the boundary validator.

FIXTURES

Two unmodified response bodies under `scenarios/`, captured by hand on
2026-09-10: quarter-hourly (2026-09-10, 96 points at 900 s) and hourly
(2025-09-10, 24 at 3600 s - the same endpoint before Belgium's 15-minute MTU).
`energy-charts-be-price-captures.json` records the URL, retrieval time, unit,
licence-as-returned and a sha256 of each, and the replay RE-DERIVES the
checksums, so a fixture edited to make a check pass stops being a capture. Data
CC BY 4.0, Bundesnetzagentur | SMARD.de, via Energy-Charts (Fraunhofer ISE),
published without changes - the same BE-zone licence check DATA-02 established.

The surviving invented fixtures are renamed `synthetic_row_feed` at every call
site. `engie_dynamic`, `totalenergies_dynamic` and `eneco_eddy` are untouched
and have no capture: their URLs are unverified and withdrawing them is
TARIFF-07's open decision. Nothing should read their green checks as evidence
that those feeds parse.

MUTATIONS - 12, all red, no survivors. Purged tree, mounted `:ro`, `python3 -B`
(TEST-15). M1 drop the equal-length refusal; M2 make it one-sided; M3 drop the
unit check; M4 `assemble()` stops rendering at the Brussels offset; M5 read
`unix_seconds` as a naive local clock; M6 zero-fill a null instead of dropping
it; M7 drop the all-null refusal; M8 sniff for the row shape; M9 drop the
deprecated warning; M10 drop the dropped-nulls warning; M11 edit one price in
the committed capture; M12 point `generic_dayahead` back at the row parser -
red across all three price suites.

END TO END, LIVE, 2026-09-10: `resolve_tariff()` returns a `TariffPlan`,
`origin='provider'`, 96 quarter-hourly points, spacing [900] s, no decimation,
first point 2026-09-10T00:00:00+02:00 at 0.30608 EUR/kWh all-in. FCST-04's H1
fix was never theoretical. All 29 test files green.

STILL OPEN: `generic_dayahead` asks for no date range, so the default URL
returns one published day - a full 48 h horizon is reached only through §8.3's
carry-forward fill.

adminandClaude Opus 5 c45893ffad FCST-06: "cannot persist" becomes one question, asked once, about the outcome
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m14s
price_history.py's docstring states its rule unconditionally - "A store that
cannot persist now records nothing, and both of its answers say the same
thing" - and FCST-04 enforced it against `not self.ok` only, which is one
SYMPTOM: the durable volume is missing. `ok` is about the DIRECTORY, and a
read-only remount and a full disk both leave it True. Reproduced on 5059e28
against two real volumes, a /data bind-mounted read-only and a full tmpfs:

    last_error = 'could not write ([Errno 30] Read-only file system)'
    words      = '2026-01-14 (24 points over 24 h); 2026-01-15 (24 points
                  over 24 h) [could not write (...)]'
    yesterday()= series, 24 points
    ON DISK    = {}

`words` and `yesterday()` were describing two different stores, and the 24
points were gone on the next restart with nothing saying so - the
silently-forgetting cache that rule exists to refuse, reached by the condition
it did not name. No shipped path reaches it: /data is the Supervisor's durable
volume and this module is its only writer. The defect is that a guarantee the
module states about itself did not hold in one condition.

Route taken: `_remember()` refuses to retain what it could not write, and the
docstring's claim stands as written. It is now ONE derived predicate rather
than two places testing two symptoms. "Can this store persist?" cannot be
answered BEFORE the attempt - a directory that existed and was writable a
moment ago is not a write that completed - so it is answered after it, once,
by the only thing holding the evidence: `_save()` returns whether the file now
holds what memory holds. No volume is one False, an OSError is another.
`_remember()` keeps only what that one answer says was kept, and the
`not self.ok` test in `_remember()` is GONE rather than joined by a second one.
FCST-04's M4 and FCST-05's HIGH were the same shape, so a third cause now needs
no third branch.

What is undone is the MERGE, not the store. The state restored is the last one
that IS on disk, so a site whose volume fills at 14:00 goes on answering the
yesterday it wrote at 13:30 - that record survives a restart, so answering it
is not a promise the store cannot keep. It stops adding to it. The snapshot is
copy.deepcopy: a one-level copy shares the day record the merge rebinds
`points` on, and measured with one, a store holding 12 persisted points
answered 24 after a failed merge.

Not fatal, deliberately: §6 and this module's opening - a broken cache must not
be a broken controller, and an add-on that will not start because /data filled
up is a worse defect than this one. `_save()` reports and returns; the shipped
resolve_tariff() path still gives a provider plan with no §11.4 degradation.
What changed is that the failure is now acted on rather than only logged.

test_price_history.py section 5d drives it on two REAL failures with different
syscalls and different errnos - a directory where the file goes (os.replace,
EISDIR) and a volume moved out from under an open store (mkstemp, ENOENT) -
because the rule is enforced on the outcome and one cause would grade a
coincidence. DOCS.md's "where there is no /data" sentence is widened to the
condition the code now holds to.

MUTATION.md gains what M4 exposed: a mutation whose red is a TRACEBACK reports
however many checks ran before it and grades none after it. M4 first printed
1 FAIL; the true figure is 3. An f-string operand read `len(read.points)`, and
`.points` on a no_data raises `Absence` by design - why()'s rule arriving in
what a check PRINTS rather than in what it asserts. `npts()` is now beside
why(), and a red count is a lower bound until the run is seen to reach the end

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 375a1e29d2 FCST-05: one byte stops stopping the add-on, and the write path gets the read path's standard
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m10s
HIGH - a non-UTF-8 byte in /data/price_history.json stopped the add-on
from starting. `_load()` caught `(json.JSONDecodeError, OSError)`.
`UnicodeDecodeError` is `ValueError -> UnicodeError -> UnicodeDecodeError`:
neither of those, and `issubclass(UnicodeDecodeError, OSError)` is False. So
it escaped `_load()` -> `_open()` -> `PriceHistory.__init__`, which
`Controller.__init__` does not guard - breaking `_load()`'s own stated
contract, "a corrupt cache must not stop the controller". The handler now
names the ValueError FAMILY (the file's content) beside OSError (its bytes),
because a third subclass nobody has thought of is how this arrived the first
time. The suite could not see it: its "unreadable file" fixture writes
"{ this is not json", which is valid UTF-8 and fails one step later, in
`json`. A fixture holding a genuinely undecodable byte is now beside it,
with the difference between the two asserted as a precondition.

MEDIUM - a malformed `start` under the day the feed is writing to killed the
tariff plan permanently. `_remember()` merged with `{q["start"]: q ...}` and
sorted on `q["start"]`, trusting a value read off /data to be a hashable,
sortable string. An int, null, a dict or a list raised TypeError out of
`carry()` -> `resolve_tariff()` -> `run_tariff_refresh`, which catches
Exception - so the add-on stayed UP while every refresh raised forever, the
plan retiring after TARIFF_MAX_AGE_S with arbitrage and the cheap window off
for good, and no self-heal because `_remember()` raised before `_save()`.
The read path was properly defensive throughout, which is why `yesterday()`
survived and the existing fixture passed - it files its malformed rows under
a day the feed is NOT writing to. Both paths now share one validator,
`_point_of()`. A row that is not a point is dropped, reported, and written
back out clean.

...and the status row said the store was healthy while the plan was dead:
`words` read '2026-01-15 (1 h)'. `_load()` now counts the rows inside a kept
record as well as the record itself, so the store stops reporting plain
health from the moment it is opened; the note names what was FOUND at open
and what was DROPPED by the refresh, and clears once the file is rewritten.

...and the merge key is the validated INSTANT rather than its spelling,
which is what rule 4 already said. The lexicographic sort beside the string
key also put the second 02:00 of the 25-hour October day (+01:00) before the
first (+02:00); stored order only, since `_parse_points()` re-sorts.

LOW - the status row counted POINTS and printed them under the HOUR's name:
'2026-01-13 (96 h)' for a 24-hour day on the quarter-hourly feed this add-on
already supports. It is now '96 points over 24 h' - two facts, each under
its own unit.

LOW - two stated reasons were false. `_audit`'s "WHY IT IS STRICTER" claimed
the rework refused the same published point emitted twice and a carried
point sharing a published hour, "which the old count never looked at". A
differential over the whole domain the audit can express finds ZERO
divergence in both directions: the old `seen` count already refused the
first (one point twice is one hour twice) and the old IDENTITY rule already
refused the second. The reworked audit is EQUAL to FCST-03's, not stronger;
the only behavioural change is the intended relaxation, and it stays. The
differential is committed as a check rather than left as prose.

...and the audit's real limit is named: it does not check COMPLETENESS. Fed
the decimation defect FCST-04 was raised for it ACCEPTS, and it accepts an
empty output. So `_audit` is not what stops that recurring - the count and
identity checks are, and the text now points at them. Not made complete:
`published` is the whole read while the fill emits only [since, until), so
the rule as stated is wrong, and building it takes the 1/12/48 h horizon
checks red on a healthy feed. Measured, not assumed.

12 mutations, purged tree, every one RED, no survivors. All 29 test files
green. Nothing deployed; no option added; config.yaml untouched.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 b59f5ce31b FCST-04: the carry-forward stops decimating a quarter-hourly feed, and a broken cache stops stopping the add-on
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m22s
Rework of the FCST-04 branch against review. Every finding below was proven by
a runnable script before it was touched and re-run after; every check added or
repaired was driven red by a mutation, `__pycache__` purged first (MUTATION.md,
TEST-15). 29/29 test files green.

⚠️ H1 - A SUB-HOURLY FEED WAS DECIMATED TO ONE POINT AN HOUR, AND THE SPREAD
WENT WITH IT. `fill_from_yesterday()` keyed the published set as
`{_utc_hour(p.start): p for p in r.points}` - LAST POINT OF THE HOUR WINS, the
other three dropped. `eneco_eddy` is the Belgian imbalance product and settles
per QUARTER, and `_validate_raw()` accepts any strictly-increasing spacing, so
this is a shape the product supports today. Measured on a 96-point quarter-hourly
feed - ALL FIRM, FULLY PUBLISHED, nothing to carry: the plan reached the
optimiser as 15 points, the arbitrage spread fell from 0.143 to 0.014 EUR/kWh,
and the cheapest "hour" became a `:45` point whose `at()` window runs into the
next one. Not the windowing effect this card is about; a feed losing 84 % of its
own prints, with no flag anywhere reporting it. The fill now decides only WHICH
WHOLE HOURS NEED CARRYING: every published point inside the window passes
through BY IDENTITY, and a carried point is added only for a whole hour with no
published coverage at all. Same feed, same fixture: 60 of 60 firm points kept,
spread 0.134 over the hours still ahead.

⚠️ AND `_audit()` GOT STRICTER, NOT LOOSER - that was the condition on doing it
at all. The old post-condition refused any repeated `_utc_hour`, a count that
cannot express four points in one hour. Two rules replace it and SUBSUME it: a
published point must BE one of that hour's published points by identity and may
be emitted only once; a carried point may stand only in an hour absent from the
published set, must be flagged True, and may not repeat. So the duplicated
carried hour it existed to catch still raises, the same published point emitted
twice now raises, and a carried point sharing an hour with a real print now
raises too - which the count never looked at. Three mutations, three reds.

⚠️ H2 - A DAY RECORD THAT WAS NOT A RECORD STOPPED THE ADD-ON FROM STARTING.
`_load()` validated `version` and that `days` is a dict, never that each VALUE
is one. `{"version": 1, "days": {"2026-01-14": "oops"}}` loaded as ok=True,
last_error=None, and then `rec.get(...)` raised AttributeError out of `words`,
`yesterday()` and `resolve_tariff()` alike. `PriceHistory(...)` and `.words` are
both unguarded in `Controller.__init__`, so the controller did not come up - and
it never self-healed, because `_remember()` raised on the same record before it
could reach `_save()`. That falsifies the CHANGELOG's "A BROKEN CACHE IS NOT A
BROKEN CONTROLLER" in the one direction that matters. The asymmetry that
produced it is visible in the file: `_parse_points()` is carefully defensive
about every field of a POINT and `_load()` was not defensive about the record
holding them. Unusable records are now dropped and REPORTED (`words` says how
many and why), and `words` is total by construction as a second line.

M3 - `yesterday()` WAS OFF BY ONE DAY FOR 00:00-00:59 AFTER SPRING-FORWARD.
`brussels()` renders at the FIXED offset for that instant, so `brussels(stamp) -
timedelta(days=1)` subtracts 24 ABSOLUTE hours - and the Brussels day before the
March transition is 23 hours long. At 2026-03-30T00:30+02:00 it returned
2026-03-28's prices as "yesterday", or `no_data` naming a date that is not
yesterday. The arithmetic is now on the local DATE, which has no offset to lose,
and both transitions have a check - the module's headline claim had none.

M4 - WITH NO /data THE STORE STILL FILLED, IN MEMORY. `_save()` short-circuited
on `not ok` while `_remember()` populated `self._days` anyway: `words` said
"unavailable" and `yesterday()` answered A SERIES that is gone on the next
restart. The module docstring rejects exactly that ("a yesterday that silently
forgets") as its reason for not calling makedirs, so the code now matches the
docstring rather than contradicting it.

M5 - THE PRUNE MUTATION SURVIVED BECAUSE THE STIMULUS WAS DEGENERATE. §8's
clock-jump check seeded ONE day, so `if len(self._days) <= KEEP_DAYS: return`
fired and the body it is named after never ran: pruning by arithmetic against
the clock - which empties the store on exactly the morning the fill is for -
passed the whole 29-file suite. The fixture is now written to a file and
reopened (`_load()` does not prune, which is how a store legitimately holds more
than the cap) with KEEP_DAYS + 2 days, and the mutant is red.

M6 - THE AST ORDERING CHECK COULD NOT CATCH A REVERSAL, AND TWO DOCUMENTS CITED
IT AS A GUARANTEE. `_calls.index("_remember") < _calls.index("yesterday")` grades
`ast.walk` BFS DEPTH: `self._remember(...)` is a statement and
`self.yesterday(...)` is an ARGUMENT of the fill, one level deeper, so
`_remember` came out first whichever statement was written first - shipped and
reversed both scored True. It is now line numbers AND, the half that matters,
the behaviour: a feed carrying yesterday alongside today into an EMPTY store
must fill the whole horizon; reversed, the lookup finds nothing and the plan is
only the published hours. Reversing the two statements is red on both.

L14/L9 - KEEP_DAYS = 3 IS THE STEADY STATE EXACTLY, so a newest-N cap has no
slack: a feed publishing to D+2, or ONE stray point in the wrong year - which
sorts LAST and can never age out - pushes yesterday out for good. `_prune()` now
PINS the two days a lookup can actually ask for on top of the cap. Pinning is
additive, so it can only RETAIN and the WITNESS-03 property (nothing is deleted
by clock arithmetic) is preserved by construction; `stamp` stops being a dead
parameter; the store is bounded at KEEP_DAYS + 2.

L8 - the horizon end was not floored while `since` was, so a 48 h request made
at any instant off the hour returned 49 points. §1's count was green only
because its NOW was exactly :00:00, a shape production never has; the fixture
now sits at :17:43. L10 - a failed `_save()` leaked its temp file; at 48 writes
a day a persistent write failure leaked 48 inodes a day onto the volume that was
already the problem. L15 - `{"version": 1.0}` passed, since `1.0 == 1`. L16 -
the `_remember` tree walk scanned `app/*.py` only and matched a bare string; it
now parses `app/`, `tools/`, `scenarios/` and `estop/` and looks for the NAME,
so a comment does not fail it and a call in `tools/` cannot pass unseen.

CLAIM-ACCURACY DEFECTS, WHICH THIS REPO TREATS AS REAL:

* L7. DOCS said "*Tariff* on the status page reads `provisional` through the
  morning". FALSE - `tariff_words` is assigned only from the HA price-entity
  branch and from `static_status()`, both on the 30 s tick, and the plan's own
  sentence reaches `_LOG.info`. The doc now says what an operator can see (the
  Price history row, the Arbitrage row's own refusal sentence, the refresh log
  line) and a check pins the PAIRING - wiring the plan into the row is fine,
  correcting the doc is fine, doing one without the other is red.
* L11. "fills EVERY unpublished hour" is conditional: a partial yesterday leaves
  the local hours it never held out of the series (§11.4 for those hours, and
  `at()` raises rather than answering). Correct behaviour, overclaimed wording,
  and untested - all three fixed.
* L12. DECISIONS §1 leaned on `TariffPlan.cheap_now()`, which has NO PRODUCTION
  CALLER on the provider plan (`self.cheap` comes from `static_status()`, which
  builds its own). The conclusion holds on `arbitrage()`'s firm-pair refusal
  alone, which does reach control; the evidence is now stated at the reach it
  has.
* L13. §1's "passed through by identity" check compared `eur_per_kwh` between
  two SEPARATE `resolve_tariff()` calls, where `is` could never have held. The
  value comparison is kept and now says what it grades; identity is graded on a
  read the file constructs and still holds.
* L17. `PriceHistory.words` and the new status row had no check at all - and
  `words` is one of the two things H2 crashed. Both now have one.
* L18. main.py's inline note carried the "widens what the optimiser can SEE,
  never what it may act on" guarantee without the windowing caveat that the
  CHANGELOG, DOCS and `resolve_tariff()`'s docstring all carry. It is the one
  place a maintainer reads it unqualified.

EVIDENCE. All eight reviewer proofs re-run: p1/p1b return 29 March, p4 keeps
60 of 60 firm points at spread 0.134, p5 starts and reports, p6 D leaves no
temp, p6 E refuses 1.0, p6 F records nothing, p7 returns 48 for 48. p2's script
still scores True/True because it re-implements the OLD algorithm - the
reversal is now driven as a mutation instead, and is red. p3's script always
showed the shipped code correct; what was wrong was the fixture, and its mutant
is now red. Twenty mutations driven, no survivors, tree fingerprinted and
`__pycache__` purged before each: decimation (2 suites red), audit x3, unfloored
`until` (2), unvalidated day records (7 checks), instant-subtraction yesterday,
in-memory fill on a volume-less store, clock-arithmetic prune, cap without the
pin, leaked temp, loose schema type, empty `words` (5), reversed `carry()` (2),
a `_remember` leak in tools/ spelled two ways, a neighbour-filling fallback, a
copy instead of identity (2), the DOCS claim in both directions, and the caveat
removed from main.py. Baseline and the unmutated tree both green.

No option added, config.yaml untouched, and the CHANGELOG entry still picks no
version: PKG-07's rule, and only the deployer knows whether 0.9.0's image has
been pulled.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 0618194d9c FCST-04: the carry-forward fill reaches the plan, and the day it carries survives a restart
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m11s
FCST-03 shipped `fill_from_yesterday()` complete and checked, and shipped the
consumers written for it - `TariffPlan.firm_points()`, `cheap_now()`'s refusal
of a provisional hour, and `arbitrage()`'s refusal 3, which drops provisional
hours from the trade set rather than refusing the whole series. It shipped NO
CALLER. Nothing in `app/` named the fill, so no series ever contained a carried
point and every one of those consumers was exercising its all-firm branch.

⚠️ THE DEFECT THAT PRODUCED WAS NOT AN ERROR ANYWHERE. `load_prices()` returns
what the feed published and nothing widened it to the requested horizon, so on
a dynamic site between midnight and the 14-16 h CET publication the plan
covered the rest of today and nothing more - measured on the fixture here, 24 h
against a 48 h request. `arbitrage()` then took `max - min` over that truncated
window and reported a spread. The number was real, the window was half the one
configured, and nothing said so: tomorrow evening's peak, the hour a morning
charge would be sold into, was not in the series to be compared against
anything. A missing hour is not a wrong price - it is an hour the optimiser
never learns exists.

WHAT THIS ADDS. `app/price_history.py` keeps the PUBLISHED prices of the last
KEEP_DAYS Brussels days in /data/price_history.json; `resolve_tariff()` gains a
required keyword-only `history` and fills every unpublished hour of the horizon
from yesterday's same-wall-clock hour, flagged. Persistence rather than a
variable on the refresh task, because the window the fill exists for is
midnight -> publication and an add-on restarted at 08:00 would otherwise spend
all of it on the truncated series. Not in state.json: the refresh runs every
1800 s and that file holds the maintenance history and SAFETY-02's latch.

⚠️ ONE CHANGE HERE MOVES ENERGY, AND IT IS NOT THE ONE THE CARD IS NAMED FOR.
Carried hours are provisional, so §8.3 keeps them out of the trade set: the
fill widens what the optimiser can SEE, never what it may DO, and
test_price_history.py checks that so it cannot be overclaimed later. What does
change a trade is that the filled series is windowed to [since, until), so
hours that have ALREADY ELAPSED are no longer in the spread. Before, a cheap
night that had gone sat in the series as the day's cheapest hour - and a cycle
cannot buy in an hour that is past, so the trade was quietly never taken.
Section 2 grades this by finding the cheapest firm hour with and without the
fill and showing it MOVES, from 02:00 UTC to 08:00 UTC on the fixture.

⚠️ A DEAD FEED IS STILL §11.4, NOT YESTERDAY. The fill runs only on a `series`
read. The two are indistinguishable to the optimiser - both 100 % provisional,
so arbitrage refuses on the firm-pair rung and `cheap_now()` is False - so
preferring yesterday's feed over the `static_profile` an operator configured
FOR that case would change a documented degradation for a difference only the
status page can see. That, and two more, in
DECISIONS/FCST-04-the-day-that-is-carried.md.

⚠️ THE ANTI-DECAY RULE IS AN ORDERING, NOT A VALIDATION, and saying so is more
useful than a guarantee that would not hold. Feeding the filled series back in
is how this rots - day 2 carries day 1's guesses, day 3 carries day 2's carry
of them, behind a `provisional` flag that stays TRUE while the NUMBER decays.
No value-level check can catch it: a carried point and `eneco_eddy`'s
published-provisional quarter are the same three fields with the same flag. So
`carry()` is the only public entry, it records BEFORE it fills, the filled
series exists only as a return value the object never sees again, and
test_price_history.py walks app/ for any other module naming `_remember` and
reads `carry()`'s AST to pin the order.

EVIDENCE. 29/29 test files pass in the CI image. Eight mutations driven against
app/price_history.py and app/static_tariff.py, __pycache__ purged before each
run per MUTATION.md/TEST-15: newest-record lookup (5 red), recording the filled
series (1), replace-instead-of-merge (10), UTC-date keying (10), removing the
fill call entirely (12), a lost price field defaulting to 0.0 (2), prune by
clock arithmetic (1), a degraded reason that stops naming its cause (1). No
survivors; baseline and revert both green. Three of those first crashed the
harness instead of reporting a FAIL - "it was refused" and "it broke on the way
to being refused" must not grade the same - so `why()` and `_priced()` were
added and the run repeated.

No option added, config.yaml untouched, and the CHANGELOG entry deliberately
picks no version: PKG-07's rule, and only the deployer knows whether 0.9.0's
image has been pulled.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 3de4453956 INSTR-01: match the finding KIND, because M12 was not holding this file to its own rule
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m7s
Review APPROVED f6f3f22 plainly. Three LOW notes, all applied - the first is a
real gap and the other two are one line each.

⚠️ M12's ASSERTION WAS KIND-BLIND. It matched on the key and ignored the
finding kind, so renaming `diff()`'s `"VANISHED STORE KEY"` to
`"GONE STORE KEY"` left M12 GREEN - review measured it. A vanished latch
quietly downgraded to a softer heading is exactly what part 3 of this same file
requires every mutation to be graded against ("the SPECIFIC finding it should
produce"), so the file was not holding itself to its own doctrine. Inherited
from SAFETY-44's original M12, not introduced here, and fixed now:

    ("VANISHED STORE KEY", "unit/shed/sign_tripped") in _m12_new

Driven: the kind rename is exit 1 and M12 is among the reds where it was green
before, and C5's removal still turns M12 red, so the strengthening did not cost
the discrimination it exists for.

C4 IS NAMED IN THE CLAUSE MAP. It has no 5e row deliberately - part 3's M9
reaches `vanished_unit is not None` end-to-end and a synthetic row would
duplicate that rather than add separability - but C5 lives in the same `if`,
and listing one guard while omitting the other reads as an oversight rather
than a boundary. Review's own recommendation was not to add the row.

AND THE PRINTED SET SAYS WHAT IT LOSES. The finding regex captures the first
TOKEN of each text, so two findings of one kind collapse into one tuple; the
line now says "first token only" so nobody reads it as an inventory. Harmless
for M12 - the difference is one-directional and the pair it asserts on is exact
- but the display was lossier than it looked. Unused `_m12_out` dropped.

28/28 files pass. `rehearse_roster.py` is untouched by this round; review
confirmed its AST is identical between 91b0d5e and f6f3f22, so every
measurement made against the shipped rule still stands.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 f6f3f227c1 INSTR-01: restore M12 on the leg I generalised past, and measure the clause that had no row
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m6s
Review found two things this PR asserted about itself that were false. Both are
mine and both are worse than the defect the card was filed for.

⚠️ "NO FIXTURE CAN RESTORE IT, MEASURED BOTH WAYS" WAS NOT TRUE, AND TWO
MEASUREMENTS ARE NOT AN IMPOSSIBILITY PROOF. I deleted M12 - SAFETY-44's
working end-to-end control for the off-roster narrowing - on the argument that
the provenance clause made it unrestorable. The structural claim behind it,
that `run()` builds both snapshots from one state file so "already latched" and
"made by this transition" are incompatible, IS TRUE OF SAME-STEP AND FALSE OF
STAGED: `snapshot_over()` starts the after-leg over the file the BEFORE-leg
wrote, so a transition-made destination is available there. Both arrangements I
measured were same-step shaped. Review found the third.

RESTORED, and it discriminates with all six clauses in:

    staged leg, legacy+shed, shipped     _m12_new = VANISHED unit/shed/sign_tripped
    ...C5 narrowing removed              _m12_new = []          ⚠️ suppressed

⚠️ AND MY FIRST RESTORATION DIDN'T DISCRIMINATE EITHER, for a reason worth
recording: `data.pop(k, False)` RETURNS the value, so shed lost the KEY and
kept the LATCH - `_grade_store_migration()` saw `on_roster_latched`, never
re-armed garage, and there was no transition-made destination. The finding was
reported whether or not C5 existed and the control looked restored. `and False`
is the difference between "the key is gone" and "the LATCH is gone", and only
the second reaches the re-arm this arrangement needs.

⚠️ WHAT ACTUALLY BROKE WAS M12's exit-0 PRECONDITION, NOT M12. A legacy-shaped
fixture is never clean. That precondition is the one SAFETY-44's own commit
called "belt-and-braces, load-bearing only if the exit-0 requirement is ever
relaxed", saying what closed the gap is `_m12_new` BEING A SET DIFFERENCE - and
a stable dirty baseline is fine for a set difference. So I deleted a control on
the strength of a precondition the same commit had already called not
load-bearing. That is removing coverage rather than failing to add it, which is
the worse of the two directions.

⭐ AND THE BARE-KEY CLAUSE HAD NO ROW AT ALL. Review deleted
`k.rsplit("/", 1)[-1] == bare` and the whole 28-file suite stayed GREEN. 5e
mutated five clauses; the comprehension carries more, and this one is
load-bearing: a vanished SAFETY-02 `sign_tripped` was suppressed by a SAFETY-42
`delivery_tripped` on a roster unit - a DIFFERENT FAILSAFE's key. The rule's own
comment says "THE TEST IS NOT 'the name appears somewhere'. It is: the SAME bare
key", and nothing measured that sentence. `unit/*/delivery_tripped` is
machine-read, so it is reachable on any real two-latch store. R7 added; C2 now
flips exactly R7.

All six clause-removals now flip exactly their own row:

    C1 machine_read   -> ['R6-machine-read']    C5 off-roster  -> ['R2-narrowing']
    C2 same bare key  -> ['R7-bare-key']        C6 injectivity -> ['R5-injectivity']
    C3 same value     -> ['R4-value']           C7 provenance  -> ['R3-provenance']

THREE DANGLING CITATIONS TO A CONTROL THIS PR HAD DELETED, one of them in the
shipped tool eight lines below the paragraph condemning exactly that ("a
citation is the worst possible carrier, because it reads as having been
checked"). The tool no longer names a check; it states the property - every
clause has a row, and each removal flips its own.

A STALE SAFETY-44 BLOCK saying both fixes were "REVERTED OUT OF THIS CARD,
because THIS SUITE CANNOT MEASURE EITHER ONE" - describing a tree this PR
replaced. Rewritten as a map of where each clause is now measured. A comment
that outlives its subject is the same defect as a citation that outlives its
check.

AND A SELF-CONTRADICTION about the driver, in the file and in the last commit
message: "THE DRIVER IS WRITTEN INTO THE TREE UNDER TEST" eight lines above
"THE DRIVER GOES IN A TEMPDIR, NOT IN THE TREE". The code does the tempdir; the
first sentence stated the read-only-CI bug the same commit says it fixed, as if
it were the design. It now says the driver IMPORTS the tree and is WRITTEN to a
tempdir.

ONE HOLE REMAINS OPEN AND IS STATED AS UNMEASURED: attribution. `sorted()`
decides which vanished key claims a destination, so a deleted key can sort
first and be named as the one that migrated while the key that really moved is
reported VANISHED. Review measured that `sorted(` -> `list(` leaves the suite
green - every 5e case has at most one candidate, so no row can see ordering.
Still exit 1, so a wrong sentence rather than a hidden loss. Recorded rather
than left looking guarded.

28/28 files pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 91b0d5e4dc INSTR-01: grade the suppression rule at the level it is written at, one case per clause
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m4s
SAFETY-44 produced THREE inert controls for this one rule, each inert
differently, and split the two remaining fixes out rather than ship them
unmeasured. This is that card, and the first thing it did was explain why the
end-to-end route could never have worked.

⚠️ `moved_to` IS ONE COMPREHENSION CARRYING FIVE CONDITIONS WITH FIVE DIFFERENT
REASONS TO EXIST, AND `run()` BUILDS BOTH SNAPSHOTS FROM ONE STATE FILE. So
"the destination was already latched" and "the destination was made by this
transition" are the same file answering two incompatible questions: the
arrangement that reaches one forecloses the other. That is why rebuilding a
fixture to reach clause N kept moving the others, and it is not a fixture
problem.

⭐ SO THE RULE IS GRADED WHERE IT IS WRITTEN - `diff()` on constructed
Snapshots, ONE CASE PER CLAUSE. Six rows, and on the SHIPPED tree before any
fix they already separated the two known defects:

    R1 rename (legitimate)   migrated                      correct
    R2 narrowing             vanished                      correct
    R3 provenance            MIGRATED                      ⚠️ the defect
    R4 same value            vanished                      correct
    R5 injectivity           BOTH migrated                 ⚠️ the defect
    R6 machine_read          vanished                      correct

The two one-line fixes SAFETY-44 reverted are back, and R3/R5 flip while
R1/R2/R4/R6 do not - so the legitimate rename is still suppressed and this is
not an over-correction.

⭐ AND EACH CLAUSE REMOVAL FLIPS **EXACTLY ITS OWN ROW**, which is the
acceptance criterion this card was filed with:

    C1 machine_read  removed -> ['R6-machine-read']
    C3 same value    removed -> ['R4-value']
    C5 off-roster    removed -> ['R2-narrowing']
    C6 injectivity   removed -> ['R5-injectivity']
    C7 provenance    removed -> ['R3-provenance']

A removal that flips nothing is an unmeasured clause; a removal that flips
someone else's row means the cases are not separable after all. Neither
happened.

⚠️ AND M12 IS DELETED, WHICH IS THE MOST USEFUL THING THIS CARD FOUND. M12 was
SAFETY-44's end-to-end control for the narrowing and it was a REAL control -
red when the narrowing was removed. Adding the provenance clause disarmed it,
and NO FIXTURE CAN RESTORE IT, measured both ways: with the sibling latched in
its own right, C7 rejects the destination before C5 is consulted, so the
mutation is reported whether or not C5 exists; making the destination
transition-made means a flat latch, which makes the shipped run dirty and
breaks M12's own precondition. The second half of the card's acceptance
criterion - "M12 still turns red with the new clauses in" - is therefore
UNSATISFIABLE, and the honest answer is to remove the control rather than keep
one that has become inert. R2 measures C5 strictly better. Part 5 keeps the
end-to-end coverage; discrimination lives in 5e.

`state-both-latched.json` goes with it. Nothing referenced it once M12 was
gone, and the first draft of that paragraph said it was "kept, because 5e's
R2/R3 are derived from the arrangements it represents" - a nice sentence and
not a reference. An unused fixture a comment calls load-bearing is an inert
check one directory over.

TWO THINGS THE DRIVER GETS RIGHT ON PURPOSE:
  - it is written to a TEMPDIR, not beside the tool. `checks / unit` mounts the
    checkout READ-ONLY, so writing into the tree works on a dev box and is
    `OSError: Read-only file system` in CI - green for whoever wrote it and red
    on every PR. Caught by running it in the check image before committing.
  - the TABLE stays in the test file and the driver goes into the tree under
    test, so a mutation to the tool cannot also move the answer it is graded
    against.

28/28 files pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 775f3a2e82 SAFETY-44: keep attribution in-tree, add the third clause, and correct a claim I made for my own precondition
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m56s
Review APPROVED f109153 and the split. Three asks, all applied, plus a
correction it caught in the round-4 commit message.

C STAYS IN-TREE. Attribution is a third property of the same comprehension -
`sorted()` decides which vanished key wins a destination, so a build renaming
`inverter-b` -> `garage` while DELETING `inverter-a` names the deleted key as
migrated and the one that really moved as VANISHED. A reader of the disclosure
paragraph wants it beside the other two rather than only in Trello. One
sentence, same block.

AND A FOURTH CLAUSE REVIEW MEASURED THIS ROUND: `and after.data.get(k) ==
value` survives the suite and is load-bearing. Without it the rule degenerates
to BARE-NAME matching - a deleted `unit/old-x/sign_reason` was reported as
having migrated into a `sign_reason` holding a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SENTENCE,
and essentially every off-roster vanished `unit/*` key would be suppressed.
Added to the paragraph and to INSTR-01, so all of `moved_to` is covered by one
fixture design rather than two-thirds of one.

⚠️ AND THE POINT IS THAT THEY ARE FOUR CLAUSES OF **ONE COMPREHENSION**, WHICH
IS STRUCTURAL AND NOT A LIST OF CHORES. Four conditions, four different reasons
to exist, one fixture set that can reach only some at a time - so rebuilding a
fixture to reach clause N moves the others. That is exactly how round 4's
disarming happened, and it is what INSTR-01 has to design against rather than
patch around. Review called this the sharpest thing found in four rounds and it
is a fact about the function, not about the two clauses that exposed it.

⚠️ AND I OVERCLAIMED FOR MY OWN PRECONDITION. The round-4 message said the
strengthened M12 precondition was needed because "the exit code alone cannot
say the second thing". Review checked: on a clean run the finding regex matches
nothing, so the second conjunct is IMPLIED by the first today. It is
belt-and-braces, load-bearing only if the exit-0 requirement is ever relaxed.
WHAT ACTUALLY CLOSED THE FIRST DRAFT'S GAP IS `_m12_new` BEING A SET DIFFERENCE
- the mutation must ADD a finding - and that is the check the narrowing's
removal turns red. The wrong half was credited, and the comment now says which
half does the work.

Nit: the fixture's trailing newline and two backticks, lost last round.

`rehearse_roster.py` is still byte-identical to d1b7e3f - this round touches
only the test file's disclosure paragraph and the fixture's comment. 28/28 pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 f109153216 SAFETY-44: ship only what this suite can measure, and split the two clauses it cannot
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m58s
⚠️ REVIEW FOUND THE INJECTIVITY CHECK INERT IN THE SAME WAY M12's FIRST DRAFT
WAS, three paragraphs below the comment diagnosing it. Removing the whole
mechanism left 28/28 GREEN: part 5's two destinations are `sign_reason` and
`sign_tripped`, DIFFERENT bare keys, which can never contend. The
`len(_dests) >= 2` precondition was true and established nothing - "not
asserting over an empty list" was correct, "this run can exercise injectivity"
was not.

Review also measured a second, narrower silent loss: `moved_to` accepts a
destination regardless of whether the TRANSITION put the value there, so a
roster unit already latched in its own right is a free suppression slot. A build
deleting `old-a` while renaming `old-b` -> `shed` reported exit 0, NO FINDINGS,
with `old-a` "migrated" into a key that already held True.

⚠️ I WROTE BOTH ONE-LINE FIXES AND HAVE REVERTED BOTH, because THIS SUITE
CANNOT MEASURE EITHER. Three attempts, three different ways of proving nothing:

  1. assert injectivity over part 5's real destinations
     -> passes with the entire mechanism deleted (non-contending bare keys)
  2. build a dedicated fixture for the two-claimant case
     -> discriminates NOTHING: both snapshots read one state file, so nothing
        vanishes and there are no migrated lines with the clause or without it
  3. rebuild M12's fixture so the destination is transition-made, to reach the
     provenance case
     -> ⚠️ DISARMED M12 FOR THE NARROWING. All three clause-removals came back
        GREEN at once, and the control I had measured RED last round was gone.

⭐ (3) IS WHY THIS IS A SPLIT AND NOT A JUDGEMENT CALL. A later fix to the same
function silently disarmed the control for an earlier one, and I saw it only
because I re-drove the removal rather than trusting the suite's exit code.
Shipping two more unmeasured clauses into the rehearsal instrument, on a card
whose entire subject is checks that cannot reach what they name, would be the
fourth inert artifact in one PR. They go on their own card, with review's
measurements as the starting evidence and the fixture built BEFORE the fix -
which is the ordering that worked for M12 and failed every time I inverted it.

⚠️ AND THE SPLIT IS SAFE, WHICH IS WHY IT IS AVAILABLE. Both remaining holes are
in the REHEARSAL TOOL, not the controller. The round-2 narrowing guarantees a
suppressed key is always OFF the roster, so no roster unit loses protection;
what is left is rollback-view/history mis-reporting on a tool an operator runs
before commissioning. Nothing here can disarm a latch on a live site, and
inverter B goes in on ~2026-09-12. Review offered this split explicitly.

M12's PRECONDITION IS STRENGTHENED, because the exit code could not carry it.
It now requires the shipped tree to be clean AND to not already report the
finding the mutation exists to produce. The first draft passed on exactly that
gap: the fixture's own litter made the run red and nothing separated the two.

Re-driven after the revert, on the round-3 fixture:

    shipped                                   exit 0
    `vanished_unit not in after.units` gone   ⚠️ exit 1

28/28 files pass. The controller half is unchanged since d1b7e3f and review has
no further concerns about it.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 f6d7bfcb04 SAFETY-44: give the moved-not-lost branch a control that reaches it, and make the move injective
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 7m38s
⚠️ THE CONTROL I WROTE LAST ROUND WAS INERT, AND REVIEW MEASURED IT. M12 ran its
mutant over `state-legacy.json` and the findings diff against the UNMUTATED tree
was EMPTY. It "passed" because that fixture's STAGED leg is already exit 1 on
pre-existing litter, and `"migrated  unit/shed/" not in out` was trivially true
because a pre-DEV-02 FLAT store has no shed latch to lose - after migration only
the FIRST roster entry is ever latched.

The decisive measurement is the one it could not make: reverting the
`vanished_unit not in after.units` narrowing - restoring exactly the rule that
hides a real latch loss - left 28/28 GREEN.

⚠️ SO IT WAS HABIT 4 WEARING THE CLOTHES OF ITS OWN FIX, AND WORSE THAN THE
"NO CONTROL" IT REPLACED, because it reads as checked. That is this commit's
own argument about the M3 mis-citation, turned on the thing I wrote to answer it.

⭐ THE FIXTURE CAME FIRST THIS TIME. `state-both-latched.json` is a store at
SCHEMA_VERSION with `unit/garage/*` AND `unit/shed/*` both latched by ONE site
event, so the reasons match too - the arrangement in which same-value
suppression is most dangerous, and the one no existing fixture could produce.
M12's mutant then makes ONE roster unit's latch key VANISH while its sibling's
survives at the same value:

    shipped tree, both-latched fixture      exit 0, no findings
    one unit's latch key deleted            exit 1, ADDS
                                            VANISHED STORE KEY unit/shed/sign_tripped
    narrowing reverted                      ⚠️ RED  (was 28/28 green)

And it asserts the PRECONDITION - the fixture is clean on the shipped tree -
plus that the mutation ADDS findings rather than coinciding with ones the
fixture already had. An empty diff there is exactly what made the last draft
inert, and nothing said so.

⭐ AND THE MOVE IS NOW INJECTIVE, which is the narrower hole review found still
open. `moved_to` is "any machine-read key with the same bare name and the same
value", and `DEFAULTS["sign_tripped"] is False` means `True` is the ONLY
non-default value a latch can hold - so N vanished keys could all claim the SAME
destination, by construction rather than by coincidence. Measured on a rename
carrying `inverter-a` -> `garage` correctly while DROPPING `inverter-b` -> `shed`:

    migrated  unit/inverter-a/sign_tripped = True -> unit/garage/sign_tripped
    migrated  unit/inverter-b/sign_tripped = True -> unit/garage/sign_tripped

Zero store-key findings, on a run where `shed` came up UNLATCHED. Two keys
cannot both have become one key. `diff()` claims each destination once.

⚠️ AND THE CHECK FOR IT IS ANCHORED TO A RUN THAT ACTUALLY PRODUCES MIGRATED
LINES. A dedicated mutant was written first and asserted over an EMPTY list -
vacuous, passing, indistinguishable from working, the same defect twice in one
sitting. These fixtures cannot produce two claimants (`migrate_unit_keys()`
moves FLAT keys only, so one flat latch yields one migration), so rather than
build a fiction to grade, injectivity is asserted over part 5's real migrations,
with a PRECONDITION that there are at least two of them. THE TWO-CLAIMANT
ARRANGEMENT IS A STATED RESIDUAL: bounded in `diff()` by construction, not
measured end-to-end.

Finding 4, and my correction to it was also wrong. The comment cited "line 315"
and "two hundred lines below"; the fix I wrote said "~54 lines down", which was
review's distance to the WRONG line, carried to a new referent without
re-measuring - inside the sentence apologising for a wrong number. Recomputed at
5e382f5: 327-261 = 66, 327-252 = 75, and 54 was neither. There is no distance
now, because a distance is a coordinate and the sentence already names the thing.

And the residual gains its second half, which review noticed and I had not: the
reason re-armed from is the FLAT mirror, carrying whatever tripped LAST, so this
path can print one inverter's evidence under another's name. The latch is right
and the explanation may not be. `test_maintenance.py`'s check that the reason is
not the removed unit's is guaranteed by that fixture's flat string, NOT by the
code, and now says so.

28/28 files pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 d1b7e3f113 SAFETY-44: decide per key, because one shared flag let an unrelated latch veto the repair
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m58s
⚠️ REVIEW DEFEATED THIS CARD'S OWN FIX WITH ONE ADDED KEY, and the project's own
instrument agreed on the unmodified tree. The guard classified each key and then
wrote ONE site-wide `namespaced_latched` for BOTH "on the roster" and
"off-roster but not UNIT_A", so a single latched key belonging to a unit the
operator had removed from `inverters:` vetoed the repair of the misdirected
`inverter-a` latch beside it. Measured, roster ['garage','shed'], store stamped
so the migration fix cannot reach it:

  sign_tripped + unit/inverter-a/sign_tripped     -> [('garage', True),  ...]
  ...AND unit/old-shed/sign_tripped               -> ⚠️ [('garage', False), ...]

A site DRIVING on a state file that reads `sign_tripped: true` - the sentence in
this card's own first paragraph - and `tools/rehearse_roster.py` printed
`LATCH CAME UP DISARMED` on it, exit 1, against shipped code. It matters more
than a normal hole because this guard is, as main.py says, the ONLY repair path
for an install already stamped by 0.9.0.

⚠️ AND IT IS INSTANCE #17 OF HABIT 4, IN THE EXTENSION MUTATION.md ADDED TWO
DAYS AGO. The two fixtures written for this card each hold ONE arrangement -
`_staged_store` has only `inverter-a`, `_other_store` only `inverter-b` - so the
flag was never written twice with opposite intents in a single store. A per-key
check whose keys have never disagreed WITHIN ONE STORE is a check over whichever
key came last. Three variables now, one per case, and a fixture holding BOTH.
Four cases driven: stranded-only repairs, +1 unrelated repairs, +2 repairs,
off-roster-only does NOT (which is DEV-02's control, still green).

⭐ AND THE MOVED-NOT-LOST RULE HID A GENUINE LATCH LOSS. The match was bare key
plus value over the whole of `machine_read`, with no identity - and
`DEFAULTS["sign_tripped"] is False`, so the ONLY non-default value a latch can
hold is `True`. Any surviving latched roster unit therefore suppressed any other
unit's vanished latch. Review measured a build that drops `unit/shed/sign_*`
while `unit/garage/sign_*` survives, both latched by one site event so the
reasons matched too:

    none in LEG SAME-STEP: nothing vanished, nothing stranded ...
    NO FINDINGS in the rehearsed transitions            exit 0

A roster unit's persisted SAFETY-02 latch deleted, transition reported clean.
The legitimate case is a RENAME - the key left `inverter-a`, which is not on
this roster, and arrived under `garage`, which is - so the vanished key's own
unit must be OFF the roster. A key whose unit is still on the roster has not
been renamed, it has been lost, and no amount of the same value elsewhere makes
that untrue.

⚠️ AND THE BOUND I CITED FOR IT DID NOT EXIST. Both the comment and the last
commit message said "what M3 (delete the flat rollback view) measures". M3 is
not that mutant - it drops `sign_reason` from `LEGACY_UNIT_KEYS` - and the one I
meant, M9, vanishes only FLAT keys, so neither can satisfy the `unit/` gate the
rule sits behind. NEITHER EXERCISED THE BRANCH; it had no negative control at
all, in a card whose subject is checks that cannot reach the failure they name.
A citation is the worst carrier for that, because it reads as having been
checked. M12 is written for it and driven: a roster unit that stops restoring
its latch is exit 1, and the suppression does not swallow it.

`misdirected` IS UNREACHABLE FROM THE CALL SITE, and the claim that it was a
benefit is withdrawn rather than restated. `unit` is `roster_names(opts)[0]` and
`build_roster()` names its first entry from the same list, so `unit` is a member
of `roster` by construction; review measured it - dropping the `roster` argument
inside `migrate_unit_keys()` survives 28/28. The argument stays for the reason
`_verify_moves()` gives for its own `roster=None` branch, it is what a NEW
caller gets - and a guard nothing exercises is a guard nobody knows works, so it
is now exercised at the function's own level: a wrong `unit` comes back
misdirected, the marker is not stamped, and the same call with a roster name
stamps it. Dead `if _roster_names else UNIT_A` removed; `roster_names()` never
returns [].

THE OPERATOR MESSAGE IS ASSERTED. Review deleted it whole (`if stranded:` ->
`if False:`) and 28/28 stayed green - `stranded` had no other consumer, so the
list existed only to print a line nothing checked, and that line is the entire
operator-facing half of the repair. Now: exactly one SAFETY-44 line at ERROR,
naming the stranded key and the roster it was measured against.

A wrong line citation removed: the call-site comment said "line 315's comment"
and "two hundred lines below", and both were wrong (315 is the CFG-03 defaults
note; the comment meant is ~54 lines down). Cite the thing, not its coordinates.

⚠️ AND WHAT 5b/5c ACTUALLY PIN IS RECORDED, because review is owed the
distinction: `mutant_tree()` asserts its target exists, so EDITING the guarded
line makes the file red at the ANCHOR before any behaviour is measured - which
looks identical from the exit code and proves much less. It happened twice while
writing this commit. The behavioural coverage lives in test_maintenance.py
section 13 and test_inverter.py, which build stores rather than strings.

Fixture strings no longer say "measured" - they are synthetic, and the repo's
other fixture carries an explicit SYNTHETIC header.

28/28 files pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 5e382f52f6 SAFETY-44: the latch migration takes the roster, and the guard stops being defeated by the key the defect wrote
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m56s
⚠️ A DISARMED SAFETY-02 GUARD ON AN INSTALL WHOSE STATE FILE SAYS IT IS
PROTECTED. `Controller.__init__` called `migrate_unit_keys(store, UNIT_A)` - a
hardcoded constant - while its sibling `migrate_maint_keys(store, unit, roster)`
takes the roster and refuses a write no machine reads. On a store that ran
pre-DEV-02 flat and declares `inverters: [garage, shed]`, the latch moved to
`unit/inverter-a/sign_tripped`, `_verify_moves()` read it back under the name it
had been HANDED, was satisfied, and stamped the marker. Not one inverter came up
latched, and the next start skipped the migration too.

That is the MAINT-05 defect verbatim, still live in the function whose own
docstring describes it, and `_grade_store_migration()` did not catch it: its
"is anything namespaced latched" test was satisfied BY THE MISDIRECTED VALUE
ITSELF.

⚠️ THE REASON IT WAS LEFT WAS A HALF-TRUTH. "There is no roster yet - the
`Inverter`s restore their latch in their constructors." The KEYS must be written
before the `Inverter`s read them; the NAMES do not come from the `Inverter`s.
`roster_names(opts)` reads them off the options before anything is constructed -
which is exactly what it already existed to do for `MqttPublisher` - and returns
`[UNIT_A]` on the flat shape, so today's upgrade path is byte-identical.

TWO EDITS, AND THEY DO DIFFERENT JOBS. Measured per leg by reverting each one:

                          SAME-STEP leg          STAGED leg
  both edits (shipped)    clean                  latch armed, litter reported
  guard reverted          latch armed            ⚠️ DISARMED
  call site reverted      latch armed, litter    latch armed, litter

So the GUARD carries the safety and the CALL SITE carries the hygiene and the
withheld marker. The table is in test_rehearse.py part 5 because a reader who
assumed the roster-aware migration re-arms the latch would delete the guard as
redundant in a tidy-up and take the STAGED column with it - and STAGED is what
"upgrade now, declare the roster later" produces, which is the path an operator
actually takes. Only the guard reaches an install already stamped by 0.9.0.

⚠️ AND "OFF THE ROSTER" ALONE WAS TOO BLUNT, WHICH test_inverter.py CAUGHT. The
first draft treated every off-roster latch as litter. In DEV-02's restart case
the store carries `unit/inverter-b/sign_tripped = True` from B's own trip while
the roster being graded holds only A - and the blunt rule re-armed a HEALTHY A
off the flat key B's trip had mirrored. DEV-02's defect rebuilt inside its own
guard, which is what the paragraph I was overruling had been right to fear.

Narrowed to `UNIT_A`, which is the only name the broken migration ever wrote -
`roster_names()` falls back to a POSITIONAL `inverter-N`, so `inverter-a` is not
a name this code hands to anyone else. A latch stranded under any other name is
a real unit out of today's config and still counts as protection. Residual,
stated in the code rather than left to be found: a site whose own first unit is
NAMED `inverter-a`, latched, then taken out of the roster gets re-armed on
`inverters[0]` - a healthy unit held at 0 W until an operator clears it. The
conservative direction, against a site DRIVING on a file that says it is latched.

⭐ AND FIXING THE CODE EXPOSED A FALSE POSITIVE IN THE HARNESS. With the latch
now landing under `garage`, `rehearse_roster.py` reported VANISHED STORE KEY for
`unit/inverter-a/sign_tripped` three lines above the same value sitting under
`unit/garage/sign_tripped`. A key that moved to a namespace a machine reads has
not vanished - and an alarm that fires on the harmless case is one an operator
learns to dismiss before the real one arrives, which is CONTROL-C's own
argument. The test is not "the name appears somewhere": same bare key, same
value, under a key in `machine_read`, the set built by driving a real start. A
latch that genuinely went missing has no such key and is still a finding, which
M3 (delete the flat rollback view) still measures red.

Test parts replaced deliberately, as both of them asked to be:
  - test_rehearse.py part 5 asserted the defect "as REQUIREMENTS so that a fix
    turns them red". It now asserts the fix, with 5b and 5c as negative controls
    - one per edit - and 5b doubles as the leg-splitter's positive control,
    since reverting the guard is the build where the two legs DISAGREE.
  - test_maintenance.py section 13 was headed "RECORDED, NOT FIXED" and said the
    fixing card "should expect them to go red and should replace them". Replaced,
    plus two cases it could not have had: the already-stamped store, and the
    `inverter-b` negative control for the narrowing above.

28/28 files pass. Not run: nothing - this is host-side only, no rig, no hardware.

                                                ZERO legs

⚠️ TWO OF THOSE THREE ARE ORDINARY REFACTORS - reordering report legs, rewording
a summary line - and neither reads as touching a safety check. 5b caught the
unclosed splitter only because the clean leg happened to be printed LAST, and
the backstop that saved A2 was a hardcoded transcription of the tool's own
sentence, so rewording that sentence blinded it too.

FIXED BY ASSERTING THE STRUCTURE RATHER THAN ADDING A FIXTURE: a leg may not
open while one is open, and every leg that opens must be explicitly closed.
Driven - deleting `END LEG` now fails on the FIRST edit, whatever the order or
the wording:

    AssertionError: leg 'SAME-STEP' opened while 'STAGED' was still open - the
    tool stopped closing its legs, and a splitter that never closes swallows the
    closing summary into the last leg.

All three attacks include that edit, so one assertion kills the class. Clean
tree unchanged: 28/28, all checks passed.

⭐ AND THE RULE IN MUTATION.md IS EXTENDED, because review's finding is the
general case of it. It said "a per-thing check that has never seen the things
DISAGREE is a total". Part 5b DOES make them disagree, every run, and was still
blind. So:

    ...AND ONE THAT HAS ONLY SEEN THEM DISAGREE IN ONE ARRANGEMENT IS A TOTAL
    OVER THAT ARRANGEMENT. When a fixture cannot enumerate the arrangements,
    assert the invariant they share.

Also recorded, NOT fixed, with the reason: the reference carries `entity_id
unique_id device` and grades all three, but never the discovery TOPIC. Review
measured `homeassistant/... -> ha/...` exiting 0 with no findings while every
announced entity dies. `discovery_payloads()` already returns the topic and
`announced_rows` discards it, so a fourth column closes it - but the prefix is
HA's fixed contract rather than a name this project chooses, so it is not what a
tidy-up rename reaches. Lower LIKELIHOOD than the N1 gap it resembles, not lower
consequence, and it stops being a note the day the topic becomes configurable.

Two stale figures corrected: the tool claimed five migration mutations where
there are nine, and pointed at a DOCS.md heading that does not exist (the real
one is "Before you commission inverter B", verified present at DOCS.md:1577).

Claude Opus 5 9c1a9e0f17 ARCH-02: M7's evidence was filtered out by its own finding kind
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m56s
The mutation battery prints the distinct findings each mutation caused, matched
on the finding's KIND. The pattern's character class was `[A-Z -]`, which has no
underscore - so `UNIQUE_ID DRIFT:` did not match, and M7, the mutation that
renames `mqtt.BASE`, printed its verdict with no evidence under it at all.

A filter that silently drops the very finding a mutation exists to produce is
the same defect as the rest of this card, at display scale. No behaviour change:
M7 was red before and is red now, and it now shows why.

Claude Opus 5 638c213944 ARCH-02 round 2: the pin could not tell one red leg from two, and the tool went
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m57s
quiet when a flag was forgotten

Both blocking findings were reproduced before anything was changed, and both are
the class this card exists to guard against.

B1. THE PIN WAS A COUNT, AND A COUNT CANNOT SEPARATE TWO ROUTES. The rehearsal
reaches the disarmed latch by two independent paths and prints every finding
TWICE per red leg - once in the leg's block, once in the closing summary - so
ONE red leg satisfied `count(...) >= 2`. Measured: shipped code 4; with
`migrate_unit_keys()` handed the roster's own name (SAME-STEP fixed) 2, PASSES;
with a guard-side fix (both fixed) 0. The check named "NOT THE SAME-STEP PATH
ALONE" reported ok on the build whose only remaining failure IS the staged path.
The tool now prints `LEG <id>` / `END LEG <id>` and the pin requires the finding
in EACH leg by name.

⚠️ AND THE FIRST SPLITTER CARRIED THE SAME DEFECT ONE LEVEL DOWN - it opened on
the marker and never closed, so the last leg absorbed the closing summary and
read red whenever ANY leg was red. Caught by building the one fixture that
separates them. Part 5b is now that fixture, run every time: a tree in which
SAME-STEP is genuinely clean and STAGED is not. A per-thing check that has never
seen the things disagree is a total with extra steps.

⚠️ AND IT CORRECTS A CLAIM THIS CARD MADE. `main.py:250` is NOT the whole fix.
Measured on that exact change: LEG SAME-STEP clean, LEG STAGED still DISARMED -
the staged path stamps `schema_version` on the flat start and the roster start's
migration returns early before the name it is handed matters. DOCS.md now says
so, with the measurement.

B2. A FORGOTTEN FLAG WAS A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH. Omitting `--live-entities`
printed "nothing orphaned" and exited 0, with `grep -ci` for the words returning
0 - while an UNREADABLE file exited 2. The asymmetry was backwards. Omitting it
now refuses (exit 2); `--no-live-entities` is the deliberate opt-out and carries
a standing banner in the header AND on the exit line, because a report is
skimmed from the bottom.

N1. THE REFERENCE DID NOT CARRY WHAT HA KEYS ON. It held entity_ids only, so
renaming `mqtt.BASE` (every unique_id moves) and changing `DEVICE["identifiers"]`
(HA sees a new device) both came back exit 0 - real orphanings with every
composed id byte-identical. The reference is now three columns
(`entity_id unique_id device`), is loaded on EVERY run including a degraded one,
and M7/M8 pin both. `object_id` is deliberately not a column and its rename is
required to SURVIVE, which is what bounds the four mqtt.py mutations.

Also found while fixing the above, and fixed with its own paired positive: the
VANISHED check did not carry the default/non-default rule the STRANDED check
does, so a pair of migrated DEFAULTS moving namespace read as two findings and
CONTROL-C went red on a CORRECT build. M9 drops non-default keys and must still
be a finding.

N2/N3. DOCS.md withdraws the unmeasured "not recoverable by advancing again" -
its own reasoning cut the other way and nothing here tested a re-advance; the
measured part (eight rows stop updating, history gaps, automations stop firing)
stands. And the byte-identical-input property is `test_rehearse.py`'s assertion,
not the tool's.

FRAMING. SAFETY-44 is ALREADY RECORDED on the merge base - `test_maintenance.py`
section 13, with the "guard is defeated by the very key the defect wrote"
sentence, in a file this card does not touch. DOCS.md now says this is
independent re-confirmation through a second instrument, reachable from an
owner-supplied state file rather than only from a fixture, and not a discovery.

app/ is still untouched. 59 checks in test_rehearse.py, 9 mutations red, 2
required survivors, 3 clean controls.

Claude Opus 5 cb8f800180 ARCH-02: the harness was red on every fresh install, and a third control says so
A store the add-on has never written has no latch and no history. The DEV-02
migration still runs on it - `schema_version` is absent, so `from_version` is 0 -
and it writes `sign_tripped = False` and `sign_reason = ""` under `inverter-a`
before `build_roster()` exists. On a declared roster nothing reads either of
them, so the first draft called both STRANDED and exited 1. Every fresh install
that grows a second inverter would have been reported as a failed transition.

⚠️ THAT IS A DEFECT IN THE ALARM, NOT A CASE TO SUPPRESS, and store.py already
carries the distinction it needed: `MigrationReport.lost` reports a dropped
`sign_tripped=True` and NOT a dropped `sign_tripped=False`, because "absent" and
"never tripped" are the same statement - and because an alarm that fires on the
harmless case is one an operator learns to dismiss before the real one arrives.
The stranded check now makes the same split, on the VALUE and not on the key
name: a key stranded at its default is printed under its own heading, visibly,
and is not a finding; the same key stranded at a non-default still is. SAFETY-44
turns on `sign_tripped = True`, so it is untouched, and a check pins both
halves against each other so the softening cannot widen into a hole.

CONTROL-C is the fresh install, and it is a third clean control rather than a
line in a comment: the shipped code is right about it and the harness must say
nothing. It is the control that found this.

Claude Opus 5 018da00b74 ARCH-02: show the mutation evidence, not the tool's own docstring
The mutation battery printed every line of the harness's output starting with a
warning sign, and the harness's header is four paragraphs of them - so each
mutation's evidence arrived buried under "THIS TOOL RUNS THE REAL Controller"
repeated six times, and each finding appeared once per transition leg plus once
in the summary. The filter now matches a finding's KIND and de-duplicates, so
what part 3 prints is the set of distinct findings the mutation caused.

No behaviour change: the same six mutations go red for the same reasons.

Claude Opus 5 e06906d65f ARCH-02: rehearse the flat-to-roster switch, and it comes up disarmed
Nothing had ever run the real `Controller` through the transition inverter B's
commissioning performs on 2026-09-12. `tools/rehearse_roster.py` does, over a
COPY of a state file given as an input path, and reports the difference: every
store key that moved, appeared, vanished or was STRANDED under a name no
machine reads; every entity id before and after with orphans named; and whether
the maintenance history MAINT-05 moved once survived being moved again.

⭐ WHAT IT FOUND, AND IT IS SAFETY-44's ANSWER. A store that ran pre-DEV-02 flat
and declares a multi-inverter roster comes up with its SAFETY-02 latch DISARMED
unless the first roster entry happens to be called `inverter-a`.
`Controller.__init__` hands `migrate_unit_keys()` the hardcoded `UNIT_A`, so the
latch lands in `unit/inverter-a/sign_tripped`; a roster of ["garage","shed"]
reads `unit/garage/sign_tripped`, which is absent. And `_grade_store_migration()`
- the guard written for exactly this - sees the migration's OWN misdirected key
satisfy its `namespaced_latched` test and returns without re-arming. Measured,
not argued: the file says `sign_tripped: true`, no inverter is latched, nothing
is held at 0 W. The same state file onto a roster whose first entry IS
`inverter-a` comes up latched, so the finding is attributable to the name.

The staged upgrade reaches it too: the flat start stamps `schema_version`, and
the roster start's migration then takes its early return.

⚠️ NO RUNTIME CODE IS CHANGED HERE. The fix to `migrate_unit_keys()` belongs to
SAFETY-44 reopened as a defect, shown red before it; this commit is the
instrument that shows it red.

THE CHECK CAN FAIL, AND WAS SEEN TO. `test_rehearse.py` establishes two CLEAN
CONTROLS first - two transitions the shipped code gets right, on which the
harness must say nothing - and then breaks the shipped migration and the
entity-id composition six ways in a private copy of the tree, requiring each to
turn its control from green to red WITH THE RIGHT FINDING NAMED. One mutation
is required to SURVIVE, with the reason written down. The synthetic state
carries maintenance history and a legacy-shaped latched `sign_tripped` with no
`schema_version` beside it, because state built by the happy path cannot detect
a migration that only mishandles legacy shapes.

⚠️ THE FIRST DRAFT OF THE HARNESS HAD HABIT 4 IN IT and its own battery caught
it - MUTATION.md's thirteenth instance, third in an instrument. The entity diff
composed both sides with the same build, so renaming the MQTT device moved every
id equally and it reported "no orphans" about a change that orphans everything.
`--live-entities` is the fix: a reference that does not move with the code.

THE RETREAT is supported and does not corrupt state - the flat rollback view
keeps the latch and the first pack's history live - but it orphans eight HA
entities, and the ROUND TRIP is not supported: a maintenance cycle completed
while rolled back is discarded on re-advance. Stated in DOCS.md as a decision.

Fetching /data/state.json, the options blob and the entity list are OWNER STEPS
and are written down. ⚠️ Nothing here was run against real state and nothing
here claims to have been.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 1448bd909b SAFETY-43: the no_account switch was graded by nothing
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m29s
Review's remaining non-blocking finding, and it is B1's shape one level down -
in the fix for B1.

`wedged_loop`'s `no_account=True` was used in exactly ONE place: the cut-out
fixture, where it PROVABLY cannot change the answer, because a pack at its own
cut-out is never asked and the gate is never reached. Review neutered the switch
so it removed nothing, and the file stayed GREEN while printing

    ...named=(nobody); with account() DELETED: 0/200

with `account()` not deleted. A line asserting a mechanism that did not happen.

⭐ THE SWITCH DOES BITE, ON A FIXTURE THIS HELPER COULD ALREADY REACH. At the
same cut-out with EQUAL weights, `plan()` hands B a 50/50 share, so the account
gate is the only thing keeping it silent. Measured:

    cut-out, OPT-09 weights   gate on   0/200   gate DELETED     0/200
    cut-out, EQUAL weights    gate on   0/200   gate DELETED   200/200

Asserted. Driven: neutering the switch now goes RED on exactly that check, and
nothing else.

Two things this buys beyond closing the finding. It proves the switch removes
the gate, so the printed "with account() DELETED" line is about a run in which
something was. And it gives part 8b the end-to-end account-gate control ON A
POSITIVE SHARE that the block previously had to outsource to test_delivery.py
part 1 - the arm is no longer only true, it is locally demonstrated.

Suite: 27 files, all pass.

Claude Opus 5 b21e229adf SAFETY-43 round 2: the cut-out "positive control" was vacuous, and the record
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m29s
stated the wrong mechanism

⚠️ REVIEW FINDING, BLOCKING, AND IT IS THE EVIDENCE THAT WAS WRONG RATHER THAN
THE BEHAVIOUR. Part 8b's cut-out arm claimed an "identical power trace" to the
wedged arm and that "what separates them is `account()`". EVERY PART OF THAT WAS
FALSE, and the check survived deleting the gate it named. Measured:

    cut-out arm, account() live        named 0/200, distinct B shares: [0]
    cut-out arm, account() FORCED None named 0/200, distinct B shares: [0]
    wedged  arm, account() live        named 200/200, shares 77/125/133/154 W

At its own cut-out the pack's usable energy ABOVE that cut-out is zero, so
`weights()` answers 0.0, `_fill()`'s preferred pass gives it nothing, the healthy
sibling covers the load alone so the last-resort pass never runs, and its share
is 0 W ON ALL 200 CYCLES. A unit with a 0 W share is not in `asked`, so
`len(asked) < 2` returns {} BEFORE EITHER ARM IS EVALUATED and `account()` is
never consulted. Nothing was identical, "100 % of the ask" was 0/0, and the arm
never reached the comparison it was written to grade.

WHAT REPLACES IT IS A BETTER FACT, NOT A WEAKER ONE: at its own cut-out OPT-09
STOPS ASKING THE PACK AT ALL, so SAFETY-43's relative arm is never reached. That
is a SECOND, INDEPENDENT protection sitting UPSTREAM of `account()` - the
allocator declines to ask before the detector has to decline to alarm. So the arm
is kept and re-pointed, not deleted:

  * the 0 W share is now ASSERTED (`_sat_last[1][Bee] == 0`), not inferred from
    the silence - a control that cannot say WHY it is quiet cannot fail;
  * the arm runs a SECOND time with `account()` DELETED (`no_account=True`) and
    must still be silent, which is what proves which mechanism does the work;
  * the account gate's claim is re-pointed at test_delivery.py part 1, where it
    is graded on a REAL positive 125 W share.

⚠️ AND IT WAS INVISIBLE FOR ONE REASON WORTH KEEPING: that was the ONLY line in
part 8b that did not print its shares. `inverter-b+0` would have been on screen
from the first run. Every line in the part prints them now. The derated control's
vacuity guard also now asserts ITS OWN unit is asked, rather than re-asserting a
different run's 200/200 - which is exactly why the old guard could not see this.

ALSO, from the same review:

  N1  app/delivery.py said 0.05 was "twelve times more sensitive" than 0.85.
      0.85/0.05 = 17 and no reading of the pair gives 12. An unsupported number
      in shipped source; replaced with what was actually measured.
  N2  M14's recorded count was 4 named checks in test_delivery.py and it is 5 -
      part 1's pre-existing "a shortfall AT the threshold is not one" also goes
      red. It under-claimed, so it never inflated the evidence, but a recorded
      figure that does not reproduce is still one.
  N3  test_delivery.py part 1 printed the alarm sentence with a bare
      `delinquent(...)["b"]`, which raises KeyError under M12/M13 and ABORTED
      THE FILE AT PART 1, leaving parts 2-8 ungraded. The direction is safe (an
      abort is a red; MUTATION.md's defect fabricates only greens) but the
      recorded coverage read smaller than the truth. It is a `.get` now, and
      M12/M13's counts are re-run: 7 and 7 named checks, not 5 and 6.

CFG-07: the assessment is unchanged (worse by one control cycle, 35.0 -> 40.0 s,
deliberately not fixed here) and now says WHEN it has to close - BEFORE INVERTER
B IS COMMISSIONED (~2026-09-12), because the band is unreachable at N=1 and
commissioning B is when it first becomes reachable - and that CFG-07 HAS NO
DECISION DOCUMENT IN THIS TREE, so whoever takes it writes one first.

No behaviour change. `delinquent()`'s two arms, the fraction, `min_w` and the
N=1 path are all untouched by this commit. 27/27 suites green.

Claude Opus 5 2271e147c6 SAFETY-43: delinquency measured against the ask, not against a flat 500 W
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m20s
`delivery.delinquent()` named a unit whose `short_by()` gap exceeded an
ABSOLUTE `min_w = Tuning.saturation_w = 500 W`. OPT-09's SoC-aware weights
shrink a low-headroom unit's share, and shrinking the share shrinks the gap, so
a unit standing at +125 W and delivering 0 W - 100 % delinquent - was never
named. Measured end to end on the real loop (test_packshare.py part 8b):

    load 1500 W, B wedged at 15 %, equal weights    named on 199/200 cycles
    load 1500 W, B wedged at 15 %, OPT-09 weights   named on   0/200 cycles

⚠️ The suppressed regime is the quiet one: at a load the healthy sibling covers,
the meter is satisfied, `unmet_w` is 0 and no action-log line fires, so this
alarm is the ONLY instrument that would have told the operator.

WHAT CHANGED, in one line:

    named if  short_by() > min_w  OR  short_by() > frac * share

⚠️ `min_w` WAS NOT LOWERED. It exists to stop normal saturation being reported
as delinquency, and lowering it trades a missed alarm for a false one on every
unit at once - SAFETY-41's four-attempt regime. This is a SECOND way to be
named, not a looser first one: all seven of test_delivery.py part 1's existing
fixtures answer identically under both rules, and the absolute arm's suppression
window is still exactly 1000 W / 6500 W, still asserted in part 8b.

THE FRACTION IS DERIVED, 0.85. admin/goodwe:sim/delivery_window.py gained a
`--fractions` axis and grades the constant over the SAME 2640 no-fault runs that
produced `delivery_hold_s`'s 35.0 s floor. Worst continuous legitimate episode,
worst of three families, twenty fractions:

    frac   0.05  0.10  0.15  0.20  0.25  0.30  0.35  0.40  0.45  0.50
    worst  90.0  90.0  70.0  70.0  60.0  55.0  55.0  60.0  45.0  45.0  s
    frac   0.55  0.60  0.65  0.70  0.75  0.80 *0.85  0.90  0.95  0.99
    worst  40.0  40.0  45.0  45.0  45.0  45.0  40.0  40.0  40.0  40.0  s
    absolute arm alone: 35.0 s (SAFETY-42 §3.3, reproduced in the same runs)

⚠️ NO CLIFF ANYWHERE: 0.45-0.99 is flat within one control cycle, and it is not
monotone - §3.3's own mechanism (c). ⚠️ "Zero false namings" is NOT achievable
at any fraction and the record says so; what is zero is false ALARMS - 90.0 s
worst against a 185 s hold, so nothing comes within 95 s of notifying anybody.
N=1 control 0.0 s at every fraction in all 2640 one-inverter runs; flapping
0.0 s in all 840.

DRIVEN. Part 8b pinned the SUPPRESSED behaviour and said "if it ever goes red
because the alarm fired, read the card that made it fire". It now grades BOTH
rules on one run - `share_frac=None` is SAFETY-42's rule exactly:

    OPT-09 weights, absolute arm alone   named on   0/200
    OPT-09 weights, the shipped rule     named on 200/200

POSITIVE CONTROL. Same fixture, same weights, same 125 W share, one legitimate
fact changed: a pack at its own 10 % cut-out is named on 0/200 (account() still
gates it), and a unit delivering HALF its share is named on 0/200.

N=1 BYTE-IDENTICAL, asserted: `plan()` handed a `weights` mapping that raises on
any read still answers identically at a roster of one, and the same mapping
raises at a roster of two; `delinquent()` answers {} on all 84 single-unit
(share, measured, rule) combinations including 0 of 125 W.

MUTATION, run on fresh :ro trees: M12 (drop the relative arm), M13 (frac -> 1.0)
and M14 (frac -> 0.05) are all red on named checks. The constant cannot move in
either direction unseen.

⚠️ CFG-07 gets ONE CONTROL CYCLE WORSE and is deliberately not fixed here: the
worst legitimate episode goes 35.0 -> 40.0 s, so the schema's `int(30,900)`
false-tripping band widens from [30,35] to [30,40]. CFG-07 should be re-derived
against 40.0 s.

No option value, no schema bound and no default changed. 27/27 suites green.

checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m22s
§3.3 already set the standard - "a worst case sitting on an edge of the grid
would be a number about the grid" - and then did not check its own argmax
against it. Review did. Reproduced here independently before writing it down:

    stagger  0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4      0.0  15.0  25.0  30.0  35.0 s
    weights (A) at stagger 4            0.5 -> 20.0   0.7/0.9/0.99 -> 0.0
                                        0.10 -> 35.0 s

Strictly increasing in stagger, maximal at the largest modelled stagger, and
maximal at the most asymmetric split. Interior only in `gain` and `slew_w`.

⚠️ SO THE HEADLINE IS 0.0 s AT stagger=0. The 35.0 s is ENTIRELY a product of
the modelled serialised-write stagger, which is declared MODELLED in the harness
and is a TERM of the figure rather than a detail of it. A site whose two writes
land in the same cycle does not produce this episode at all.

It does not move `delivery_hold_s`: 185 s must cover the worst the modelled site
can produce, and four cycles of stagger is inside what a real two-inverter write
path can do. What changes is that a reader asking "is 35.0 s about the plant or
about the grid?" now gets the answer instead of the invitation.

⚠️ THE PR BODY HAD CLAIMED THE ARGMAX WAS "interior to the grid, not on an edge
of an axis I had to choose". That was wrong, and it is the claim the doc's own
standard exists to test. The grid is the record's own, fixed by §3.3 before this
rebuild ran, which is the mitigating half and is stated too.

Also: `nl.yaml` wrote "35.0 s" beside "5,29 keer" and "75,0 s" in one sentence.
Dutch takes the comma.

Suite: 26 files, all pass.

adminandClaude Opus 5 57775d4e06 TEST-21: delivery_hold_s's floor re-derived, and 30.0 s did not reproduce
No code and no option changes. What changes is a number this repository claimed
about a shipped safety constant.

`delivery_hold_s: 185` shipped resting on "30.0 s, the worst continuous
legitimate episode at the shipped threshold across all 2640 runs", plus a lag
sweep giving 45.0 s and 90.0 s - from a harness `DECISIONS/SAFETY-42` §1
deliberately did NOT commit, because it imports `plantsim` and `frame_check` out
of admin/goodwe. So the floor under a safety constant could not be re-run. That
is PROC-01's shape, with eleven instances in three days.

The harness is committed now, in admin/goodwe as `sim/delivery_window.py`, and
NOT here. `plantsim` and `frame_check` are that repo's; restating them in this
tree is CI-08's coupling, which has broken three times, and the alternative
fate - skipped for want of its imports - is a green that establishes nothing.
There the dependency runs one way: THIS repo's `control`, `arbiter` and the
shipped `delivery.delinquent()` are imported live out of whichever checkout is
under test. Its `--selftest` is now a step in that repo's `checks.yml`, so a
change here that moves `saturation_w`, `max_w`, `delivery_hold_s` or the shape
of `delinquent()` goes red there instead of leaving a stale number here.

    cd goodwe/sim && GOODWE_ADDON_REPO=/path/to/goodwe-addon \
        python3 -B delivery_window.py --selftest --campaign --blag

⚠️ THE HEADLINE DID NOT REPRODUCE: 35.0 s, not 30.0 s. Recorded as measured. The
harness was not adjusted until it agreed - the one correction made during the
rebuild was made AGAINST the doc's number (§1 records it) and made every figure
LARGER.

WHAT REPRODUCED - and it is the part the compatibility promise rests on:
  * the N=1 control arm is 0.0 s at EVERY threshold in EVERY run. §3.2's algebra
    measured, not argued.
  * the flapping family is 0.0 s everywhere in all 840 runs - the family that
    defeated SAFETY-30's site window still cannot touch this check.
  * 45.0 s at twice A's lag, to the cycle.

WHAT DID NOT:
  * the headline, by one control cycle (30.0 -> 35.0 s); the reversal family by
    two (20.0 -> 30.0 s).
  * the NON-MONOTONE curve. §3.3 finding 3 read 55.0 s at 250 W against 40.0 s
    at 100 W as a property of the reduction. This rebuild's curve is monotone.
    The mechanism is real and is still the reason not to read either table as a
    sensitivity curve, but it is an ARGUMENT now, not a measurement, and it is
    written down as weaker.
  * the low-threshold rows, badly (40.0 -> 120.0 s at 100 W). Nothing ships
    there, but that gap is the honest measure of how much of the original table
    was a property of axes nobody wrote down. §3.3 fixes every axis COUNT and
    RANGE and no individual value; the rebuild prints its choices above its own
    table so the caveat travels with the number.
  * the four-times-slower row moved the OTHER way: 75.0 s, not 90.0 s.

185 s IS NOT CHANGED. It is 5.29x the re-measured worst (the record claimed
6.2x), 2.47x the four-times-slower case, 6.2x the firmware's LINK_STALE_S veto
and 4.9x inside the billing quarter. All four bounds clear and none narrowly,
and the ordering of the argument is unchanged. Moving a shipped safety constant
because a margin went from 6.2x to 5.3x while every bound holds would re-open
SAFETY-41's four-attempt false-trip regime for nothing.

⚠️ ONE CONSEQUENCE AN OPERATOR CAN HIT. At 30.0 s the rig's floor coincided with
the firmware's veto and a reader could not tell which was binding. At 35.0 s the
rig's is strictly the binding one - and it is ABOVE the schema's own
`int(30,900)` minimum. `delivery_hold_s: 30` is therefore below a MEASURED
legitimate episode and would report on ordinary saturation. Both translations
now say so. Raising the schema floor is a change to a shipped option's contract
and is left to its own card rather than smuggled in here.

⚠️ THE B-LAG ROWS ARE RELABELLED THROUGHOUT. Inverter B does not physically
exist (~2026-09-12); `plantsim.INVERTER_B` is A COPIED, `measured=False`. Every
two-inverter figure in this record is two copies of A, and the lag sweep is a
SENSITIVITY STUDY ON A HYPOTHESIS ABOUT B, not a measurement of it. The old
wording - "MEASURED, not felt" - overstated exactly that, and "the RAMP does not
move it at all" was too strong: halving it is worth 0 s at A's lag and +5 s at
twice it.

Touched: DECISIONS/SAFETY-42 §1 and §3.3, app/delivery.py's provenance comment,
config.yaml's `delivery_hold_s` block, both translations, CHANGELOG Unreleased.
26/26 suites pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 9099ceb1af SAFETY-31: the grid is 42, not 90, and the wrong number was in the failure text
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m27s
Review reproduced every figure in both PRs except one, and rejected on it.

⚠️ "0 of 90 GAINS x SPLITS combinations produce opposing shares" - the SUBSTANCE
is right and review re-measured it, but the DENOMINATOR is invented. sitesim.py
declares GAINS with 7 entries and SPLITS with 6: the grid is 42. 90 is not even
divisible by 7, so no reading of "GAINS x SPLITS" reaches it. It is almost
certainly TEST-20`s RUN count (84 + 6), which is a different quantity that
happened to be nearby.

⚠️ AND THE WORST COPY OF IT WAS INSIDE THE `PRECONDITION FAILED` TEXT, so the
next engineer to see this scenario go red would have been handed an
unreproducible measurement as their diagnosis - the exact defect class this
campaign exists to correct, in the failure path where it does the most harm.

Corrected in all seven places. At the failure-text site the denominator is now
`len(GAINS) * len(SPLITS)`, computed rather than typed, so it cannot drift from
the grid again - the same fix test_translations.py already took.

Also N3: a missing blank line was going to render the S3 and M19 paragraphs as
one in DECISIONS.

Re-run after the change: `inject.py two_master_circulation` PASS in 35 s, norig,
no rig lock taken. Add-on suite 26 files, all pass.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 295a2aedb6 SAFETY-31 AC 4: the alarm's attribution was graded by nothing, and a mutation proved it
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m27s
`pos, neg = opposing(...)` -> `([], [])` in main.py's `check_circulating()`
(-102 B) deletes the "Right now X is discharging while Y charges" clause from
the operator notification, and SURVIVED ALL 26 FILES. The commit that shipped
this card claimed "18 mutations, all RED"; the ledger has no entry for the
attribution, and this is that entry.

It is not dead code. Ledger M18 - the whole `await check_circulating()` call
removed - is red on four checks, so the function runs. The three checks on the
notification asserted METER CANNOT SEE, CONTROL HAS BEEN STOPPED and `isolator`,
and never an inverter name. `circulation.py`'s own docstring calls that sentence
the first thing somebody woken by this alarm needs and "impossible to
reconstruct from the number alone".

test_watchdog.py section 6a closes it on a fixture that can tell three failures
apart:

  * the roster is ["garage", "shed", "cellar"] - operator names, none of them
    `UNIT_A`, for test_maintenance.py section 11's reason: on a fixture whose
    names are the module's own constants a check cannot tell the roster from
    the constant;
  * the site is run TWICE, MIRRORED, so the sentence is not symmetric and a
    pos/neg swap is a different red from a deletion;
  * a third pack rests at 5 W, so the floor that stops a pack in standby being
    named as a participant in a 6 kW loop is graded too.

Mutations, on a tree with no __pycache__ mounted :ro into the checks image:

  M20  pos, neg = opposing(...) -> ([], [])          -102 B  RED (2 checks)
  M21  pos and neg exchanged                          +0 B   RED (3 checks)
  M22  opposing(..., min_w=cfg.min_w/2.0) -> 0.0      -25 B  RED (3 checks)

26/26 files green with the block in place.

AND A DISCLOSURE, WHICH IS THE UNCOMFORTABLE HALF. DECISIONS section 3 records
that the 924-run campaign behind `circulation_w: 700` and `circulation_hold_s:
75` used a harness that is not committed in either repository. Two further
sweeps have now been run and no two of the three agree: peaks of 1700 W, 2750 W
and 1048 W, and worst-continuous figures above 700 W of 5.0 s, 15.0 s and 5.0 s.

That is NOT evidence of fabrication and is not reported as any. The committed
sweep measures why the spread is that wide: on one grid, changing only the
plant model and the write-stagger set, the worst legitimate peak is 1048 W, or
2250 W, or 0 W. The plant and the stagger are TERMS of the number. What the
spread does establish is that the claim cannot be adjudicated while the
instrument is missing.

The window argument survives and is now committed - all three sweeps trip zero
times, on 924 + 48 + 840 non-faulty runs. The threshold CURVE does not survive
as stated: `505.0 s at 100 W`, which is what the "knee at 400 W" argument rests
on, is 10.0 s on the committed grid. The curve still falls with the threshold,
so the knee is real in direction; its depth is established by nothing anybody
can run, and this commit says so rather than repeating it. The overclaiming
comment at test_watchdog.py's 1700 W fixture ("the worst single transient the
rig can produce") is replaced with what the fixture can support.

The committed, re-runnable half is admin/goodwe's `two_master_circulation`,
opened as a separate PR against that repository.

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 477911afa1 UX-04: the 59 was computed and then graded against "> 15"
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m22s
Review approved and found four things worth fixing. Three are cosmetic; the
fourth is the same defect this card is about, one level up.

⚠️ THE FLOOR WAS PRINTED AS 59 AND ASSERTED AS `> 15`. So a manifest change
dropping the required count to 20 would have passed while the sentence beside it
still said 59 - a number displayed but not graded, which is exactly what let
UX-01's AC 3 survive review in the first place, and exactly the shape
`test_translations.py` was already fixed for.

Now DERIVED and graded in two separate assertions, because they are two
different claims:

  1. `_EXPECT_REQ = len(schema) - len(_OPTIONAL)`, where optional is Supervisor's
     own rule - a `?` suffix, plus `inverters` because `UiOptions` marks a list
     optional - asserted EQUAL to Supervisor's required count. The printed
     number is computed, so it cannot go stale.
  2. ⚠️ AND THE WITHDRAWAL'S PREMISE, SEPARATELY. The equality alone is not
     enough and I checked why: both sides read the same `?` convention, so
     marking a key optional moves BOTH and it stays green - measured, by making
     `slew_w` optional and watching it pass. That grades Supervisor agreeing
     with us, NOT the thing AC 3 was withdrawn for. The second assertion grades
     the premise: the floor is still far above the ~15 AC 3 asked for, and if it
     ever is not, the withdrawal needs re-arguing rather than re-asserting.

Driven, both directions, against the real 2026.08.0 image:

    clean                         PASS  "floor is DERIVED: 71 schema keys minus
                                         12 optional ones is 59, and
                                         Supervisor's own required flag agrees"
    premise threshold 15 -> 40    FAIL  "the floor of 59 is still far above
                                         the ~40 AC 3 asked for"

Also: a dangling reference to `DECISIONS/UX-04-hiding-and-the-deepmerge.md`,
which was never the filename shipped, and `DOCS.md` still saying section F
"prints" what it now grades.

Not changed, and review agreed both are disclosed rather than defects: the
pair-keyed ledger cannot see a SECOND site for a pair it already holds (the
site count can grow while the pair set cannot), and the probe's assertions run
by hand rather than in CI because they need the Supervisor image - the same
status as before this card, not a regression.

Suite: 27 files, all pass. Probe: all cases passed on
ghcr.io/home-assistant/amd64-hassio-supervisor:2026.08.0, --network none.

Claude Opus 5 21f22b393a UX-04: nothing was hidden, the defaults pin was never built, and CFG-04 was closed by UX-02
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m20s
UX-01's three unmet acceptance criteria, closed out. It shipped in 0.7.0 and is
LIVE, so all three describe the running install. No behaviour, no schema and no
default moves here: config.yaml, translations/ and every module under app/ are
byte-identical to 6e7b233.

⚠️ AC 3 - "the visible count drops to ~15" - IS WITHDRAWN AS UNSATISFIABLE, and
the arithmetic is the reason rather than the effort. options: and schema: both
declare all 71 keys, so the set HA's toggle can hide is EMPTY - it hides a key
only when it is ?-optional AND absent from options:, and nothing is absent. But
the deeper fact is that no manifest could have met it: Supervisor's own
UiOptions marks 59 of the 71 REQUIRED, and the frontend's own filter -
`schema.filter(e => e.name in opts || e.required)`, transcribed out of the
bundle in the release image - shows a required field unconditionally. So 59 is
the floor with options: EMPTIED ALTOGETHER. The target was ~4x below anything
reachable.

⚠️ AND THE 12 HIDES THAT ARE EXPRESSIBLE WOULD BE BOUGHT WITH THE UPGRADE PATH.
A key absent from options: has no default for the Supervisor to deep-merge into
an existing box's stored blob. That is exactly the delivery_hold_s mechanism
this release rests on: a REQUIRED key a 0.7.0 blob has never stored resolves to
its options: default of 185 instead of becoming exit 78. Hiding a key is
precisely the edit that removes that. It would also promote the 27 unpinned
in-code literal fallbacks the new check ledgers into the ACTUAL source of the
defaults on a live install - the CFG-03 defect the same card's AC 4 exists to
police, made load-bearing by its AC 3.

⚠️ THE COUNT WAS PRINTED AND NEVER GRADED, WHICH IS HOW THIS PASSED REVIEW.
supervisor_shape_probe.py section F has printed "the Configuration tab renders
71 fields" since the day it was written and exited 0 through UX-01's whole
review while displaying the number that contradicted the criterion it was
evidence for. Three assertions replace the bare print, every number computed
from the manifest and from Supervisor's own `required` flag rather than typed,
including an ISOLATED COUNTERFACTUAL that empties options: and nothing else.
MEASURED RED: delete one key (price_feed_url) from options: and two of them
fail - `Hideable: ['price_feed_url']`, `70 of 71 fields render` - exit 1.

--- AC 4: the AST check, built --------------------------------------------

AC 4's first clause is VACUOUS over an empty set (see above) and its second -
"the table changed goes red" - already works six times over. The third, the one
with the content, was never written: the only literal scan in the repository is
test_validate.py's regex over eight maintenance_* keys, which is a grep and
predates the card.

test_defaults_pin.py walks ast.Call nodes over app/*.py. It:

  - DISCOVERS the six *_OPTION_DEFAULTS mirrors from the tree rather than
    naming them. Every existing pin names its own table by hand, so a SEVENTH
    table added tomorrow is pinned by nobody and nothing says so;
  - grades all 30 mirrored keys against config.yaml, and requires that no
    module carries a literal fallback for any of them;
  - FREEZES the CFG-03 backlog at exactly today's 27 (module, key) pairs, by
    pair and not by count - a count goes green again the moment one site is
    deleted and another added. Line numbers are deliberately out of the key: a
    ledger that reddens on an unrelated reformat is one people re-bless without
    reading. It can only shrink;
  - grades every remaining literal AGAINST config.yaml, which is the half that
    catches CFG-04's actual failure - two copies of one number, one moves.

⭐ ONE PREVIOUSLY UNREPORTED DIVERGENCE, and it is what that last check is for:
main.py:290 answers a missing target_grid_w with 0 where config.yaml ships -10.
It cannot reach an operator - the deep-merge guarantees the key is present - and
the only paths that hand over a partial dict are sim/inject.py and this repo's
fixtures. Recorded as the single permitted divergence with its reason rather
than corrected; changing it alters the control loop's target and belongs to a
card that grades the loop. A second divergence goes red.

⭐ THE RED DIRECTION WAS RUN, TWICE OVER. Part 5 feeds the scanner a synthetic
module containing a deliberate violation of each rule and REQUIRES it to be
caught, in-process, through the same function the graded parts call - so a
scanner that goes blind stops working there too - and the site total is graded
against a floor. And a literal was planted in the REAL tree:

    main.py:290  float(opts.get("maintenance_charge_w", 2000))
    -> FAIL no literal fallback survives for any of the 30 keys a mirror
       already answers for                                          exit 1

    main.py:290  opts.get("p1_host", "x"), opts.get("slew_w", 999)
    -> FAIL no NEW module/key pair has started carrying a literal fallback
            [('main.py', 'p1_host')]
       FAIL every remaining literal still AGREES with config.yaml
            main.py  slew_w: code 999 vs config.yaml 0               exit 1

Both plants removed.

--- AC 5: CFG-04 is closed, and not by this card's predecessor -------------

fef6ef2 touched config.yaml, translations/, test_translations.py and the probe -
no defaults code at all - and on 0.7.0 the max_w 2000 -> 2500 triple mutation
survives 21 files, 0 RED. CONFIRMED CLOSED on release/1.0 by re-running the same
triple mutation on a throwaway copy of 6e7b233: 26 files, RED at
test_selfconfig.py, exit 1 -

  1 FAILED: ⚠️ CLEARING max_w ON THE LIVE SHAPE IS REFUSED - rule 10 catches
  the rail collapsing to the 2000 default under an explicit 400 W slew

git log -L 310,325:test_selfconfig.py attributes that check to bcee235,
"UX-02: pin both halves of the max_w fix, because neither was graded". The AC is
met BY UX-02 and ships with the pending 0.9.0 deploy. Nothing was re-done.

--- the 8 per-entry translations: they stay --------------------------------

Measured negative and not a defect in them: UiOptions gives inverters type
schema WITH multiple, the frontend sends that case to ha-selector-object, which
labels fields `fields[name].label || name`, and the converter sets neither label
nor translation_key. The Supervisor tab CANNOT be made to render them. They stay
because UX-02's ingress panel is the surface that can, because they cost
nothing, and because deleting them removes the only thing that would catch a
per-entry key added without a translation - which is how SAFETY-32's REQUIRED
bms_soc_floor would have joined the roster unlabelled. A written decision, not a
change; translations/ is untouched.

tools/supervisor_selfapi_probe.py stays red on its hardcoded len(_sub) == 7.
That is TOOL-04, already filed, and it is not re-filed or fixed here.

--- evidence ---------------------------------------------------------------

  positive control  test_defaults_pin.py's mirror floor moved 6 -> 7 inside the
                    harness container: "### RED: test_defaults_pin.py", exit 1

glenn schrooyenandClaude Opus 5 1ba35f9c99 PKG-13: one safe.directory flag, not two, and the tighter of the pair
checks / unit (pull_request) Successful in 6m19s
Review found `-c safe.directory={where}` and `-c safe.directory=*` set on the
same invocation, the specific value redundant once the wildcard is present.

Dropped the WILDCARD rather than the specific path, which is the opposite of
the suggestion and the tighter end of it: `_git()` always runs `-C where`, so
the only repository it ever reads is the one it was pointed at, and naming that
one path grants exactly the trust the tool needs. `*` granted trust to every
repository on the machine for the lifetime of each subprocess - harmless for
read-only `log`/`show` with no tty, as review measured, but broader than the
job.

Verified after the change: the documented container invocation still runs BOTH
halves and reports `no runtime change since the last bump` / `CLEARED for
deploy`, so the fix this branch exists for is intact.

Suite: 26 files, all pass.
