Owner 2026-10-29: fix N=1 in this hotfix. _charge_headroom() no longer
returns early at one inverter, so the N=1 cheap-window maintenance charge
is held to charge_room_w() as at N=2; SAFETY-84's site-stop rule stays N>=2
only (at N=1 such a stop outranks the shaping anyway). The guard no longer
steps in and gives power at each quarter's end during that charge.
test_safety125.py: N=1 maintenance on 5 s and 10 s meters with late
readings, with and without a banked peak; the row in an N=2 maintenance
charge and in shadow mode; edge cases (blind past the hold, a start
mid-quarter, the summer-time change, the forecast in W, a 10 s meter, the
last second). test_safety84/87: three N=1 pins move. test_safety119: its
quarter-edge hand-back runs keep the old N=1 sizing as a fixture, plus a
check that with the new sizing nothing hands back. CHANGELOG, DECISIONS,
DOCS follow.

TEST-23 F-1: on a 5 s meter a steady overload warned once in 70 min. The
loop was at its bound 4-5 cycles a quarter, all inside SAFETY-119's settle
of 12 cycles (60 s) and under its budget of 8 per 900 s. The simulation
fed the meter a cycle behind the battery reading, so the guard and the
charge chased each other and gave ~20 bound cycles a quarter.
The settle is now 4 cycles and 22 s (HANDBACK_CYCLES, SHORT_SPAN_S), and
the rolling budget one number, 11 per 900 s, at every cycle length. The
cycle length is no longer tracked. Commands unchanged; the re-pinned
digests of test_safety84/87 differ from bee7431 in OUTPUT_CLAMP rows only.
test_safety119 runs the rig's shape (meter in the same cycle) at 1-15 s
and checks a stop keeps the budget (review F2, X3).

The rolling budget now holds without a monotonic clock (it never refills).
Quarter-edge tests use seeds 1-3 at 2, 5, 10 and 15 s (no hand-picked seeds).
Re-pin comments point at part 6. DECISIONS lists the limits the owner
accepted with N=8 on 2026-10-20.

A hand-back used to restart the window, so a guard and a charge taking
turns hid the loop's integrator bound for good (0 warnings in 2 h; 28
before the fix). A run of hand-backs (the wire away less than a settle
between them) now hides the bound for at most 11 bound cycles and 22 s in
all, then it counts. The quarter-edge kick stays hidden. No command or text
changes. Tests for the two reviewer mutants that only unit checks caught
(a restart counted as a hand-back; span only), DECISIONS gives the delay at
2 s, 5 s and 60 s. test_safety87.py:543 shortened.

The re-pinned digests differ only in OUTPUT_CLAMP log rows; every command
and claim is the same as without the fix (test_safety119.py part 5).
DECISIONS: the delay at a 5 s meter and the open swap case.

At N>=2 a battery at or under its own peak reserve now weighs 0 whenever
the site gives (not only for the peak), a draining battery's pin becomes
a floor at its drain rate so it rises before the held one gives, and a
quarter's edge is graded on the next quarter when its first telegram is
late. SAFETY-25 option A stays: the held battery is still drawn once the
others are full. N=1 unchanged.

A draining battery that may still give is raised from its drain rate
towards its rating for the peak floor while another battery is held
(peak > drain); before, the floor's rest landed on the held battery. In a
HOLD, a held battery's own pin counts among the others: a held drain no
longer over-places the site, and a held charge probe no longer parks it.
Tests: test_safety87.py part 10 (drain beside a held battery, N=3 HOLD,
unknown cut-out and unread level at N=3, a stopping row outranks the
running peak alarm). DECISIONS entry updated, incl. the modes-on exception.

At N>=2 a battery at or under its own peak reserve is held: it gives
nothing for the peak (weight 0 while the site gives) and the guard's need
is placed on the live, non-refusing batteries above theirs. The guard is
floor-limited, and alarms, only when those cannot hold the limit at full
power for ALARM_HOLD_S. The peak alarms no longer read "Not ready" or hold
the Home page at 0 W, because control keeps running. N=1 is byte-identical.
