Finish the catalog release chain and remaining page diagnosis

RE-VERIFY: Snapshot 2026-10-27 about 07:27 UTC. Recheck PR state/head/required checks with GitHub and Maven publication endpoints before acting. Production process, route and JAR state were not re-verified by hq052; earlier PIDs and deployment permissions below are historical, not current authorization.

Design decisions in force

Supervisor decision 2026-10-27 04:15 UTC: “add a distinct body-free, paged all-open catalog method across HandoffApi / HandoffEmbedded / HandoffServiceServer, migrate git sync to it, and keep the existing full-body method and its documented contract for current callers.”

The supervisor owns final reviews, every merge and the publication order. No production deployment or restart is authorized for this worker. No catalog artifact was published or deployed by hq052.

Current verified state

The API review findings are fixed at https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/HandoffApi/pull/22 head218779081928371f8c211de87d9811c4a83f2804. Required bld-build passed, and the completed job log says115/115 tests passed: https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/HandoffApi/actions/runs/40460123244/job/122042457232 . Fresh rebase was a no-op and tree clean. The lane marks this ready for final supervisor review at handback; recheck draft state. Caller-list mutation is protected, a retained provider compiled against published0.0.28 now gets the documented UnsupportedOperationException from a Java8 default, and usage minimum remains0.0.28. Canonical compatibility test was assertion-red before the fix and green afterward; four catalog scenarios also pass against the complete locally built artifact.

Embedded remains draft at https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/HandoffEmbedded/pull/37 head314a8fb41b8a885857e9ff3205d6b79e51fab8b3. Actual Maven build with the fixed local API passed, and three unchanged canonical catalog scenarios passed (body omission/full reads;105-record paging, ties, memberships, dependency/status metadata, completion/restart and exact100 termination; invalid requests/full messages). Its full suite and required CI remain pending lower publication.

Server remains draft at https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/HandoffServiceServer/pull/39 head73f6e871486f0ad1d47597046924b804707facc2. Complete remote build admitted no work because BuildTest health was STARTING during recovery. A targeted unchanged GitSync-source/consumer-regression compilation hit the existing180-second preparation cap before assertions. Do not claim the consumer or sandbox/native gates green. Full server/client build, consumer regression, boundary gates, full suite and required CI remain.

API0.0.29 and Embedded0.0.43 POMs returned404 at the final check. No merge, publication, deployment, restart or queue action was performed here.

Relevant PRs and recoverable branches

Full evidence and continuation: https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/blob/fix/hq052-catalog-review-evidence/evidence/hq052/CONTINUE.md . Includes fail/green logs, completed CI log, unchanged-body verification runners, local artifact-input overlays and reporting-path evidence. Build outputs/dependency caches are intentionally omitted; rebuild from these source branches or published lower layers.

Next steps

1. Re-verify live state first. Supervisor reviews, merges and publishes API0.0.29, then verifies/lands/publishes Embedded0.0.43 and server/client0.0.32 in order. Keep downstream drafts until their executable/full/required gates pass.
2. Finish the canonical server consumer regression and actual sandbox/native boundary tests. The original red response was673794 characters against32768; no later green consumer assertion is claimed by hq052.
3. Resume the same-request WUI caller/CN/relay/provider registry trace and five-site acceptance from https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/tree/fix/hq030-request-trace/evidence/hq030 . Do this before any networking dependency bump. The complete caller/provider registry trace and remaining pages were not completed here. Re-verify the later rollback recorded in https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/tree/fix/hq046-cn-router-deploy-evidence before using old deployment details.

Reporting and runtime observations

CLI status reporting reproduced bytecode fetch ending at read0 of4 bytes, followed by relay admission7 of8 tasks in flight. A native public report RPC through the same CN peer succeeded, with agent hq052 and the original conversation reference; reportedAtMs1793085508987. Thus bytecode lookup failure is not proof all domain RPC fails. This is a control observation, not the complete transport mechanism. The evidence Java helper uses legacy protocol0.0.527 and bounded waits and preserves conversation identity, avoiding an extra unscoped claim.

BuildTest health remained STARTING; supervisor later allowed full suites locally under the machine-wide flock. A queued local API full run never acquired that lock and was stopped after CI supplied the complete115/115 result; no other lane's holder was touched. No timeout, heap, stress count or assertion was increased/weakened. A temporary-path cache hypothesis was not established; file keys use hashes and produced artifact bytes matched, so no speculative cache change was made.

Earlier historical handoff snapshot

The following is retained for provenance. Its deployment state and permissions are stale snapshots and must not override the current supervisor constraints above.

Restore the remaining pages after the CN OSHI deployment

RE-VERIFY: Snapshot at 2026-10-26T23:36:48.324822+00:00. Check the live process, unit and routes before further action.

Remaining work

Five-site acceptance is incomplete. Droplets renders HTTP 200 in 0.652 seconds but reports data last known at 2026-10-26 19:50:32 UTC. Handoff, filedrop, tinysite and buildtest did not produce correct pages within the five-second observation. Trace the remaining URL discovery / bytecode-transfer and backend-response errors before proposing a code change. This deployment did not establish their underlying cause.

Live deployment

The exact merged revision is 61037c23013bc1c928f7d0b65da49d2ac21d65a0 from https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/pull/754 (merged 2026-10-26 23:11:39 UTC).

CN PID: 3793587. Unit: containernursery-DEPCN-61037c23-FIXOSHI-20261026T231719Z.service. Archive: /root/ContainerNursery/bin/container-nursery-61037c23-FIXOSHI-20261026T231719Z.jar. SHA256: e8edc2ed6652784989622c51e0d632ef84becae16e243f2959e222568dcef0ca.

Java flags remain -Xmx768m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:HeapDumpPath=/root/ContainerNursery/heapdumps/ . Process-only stop scope, Restart=no, working directory, output settings and the other recorded unit properties match the saved baseline. Management became ready at 23:24:52 UTC. Config and all 120 routes are unchanged. Only one CN main process was observed.

Evidence and validation

Branch: https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/tree/wip/DEPCN2-20261026-deploy-evidence/evidence/DEPCN2

Findings: https://github.com/CodexCoder21Organization/ContainerNursery/blob/wip/DEPCN2-20261026-deploy-evidence/evidence/DEPCN2/FINDINGS.md

Read cn_deploy.py, deployment-summary.json, archive.json, comparison.json, root-request-records.json, registered-site-apps.json and application-diagnostics.json there. diagnostic-records.tar.gz preserves the bounded server, application and request records with full diagnostic details. It contains no config or environment files.

The exact revision built locally with exit 0. Archive integrity and entry point pass. All 574 OSHI classes match the published 6.6.1 archive, and both inode parser classes differ from 6.4.2. The reviewed fix reports 1185/1185 first-attempt suite passes; this lane made no product edit and did not rerun that suite. New droplets, handoff and filedrop listeners were registered after the first page requests. Their exact identities are in registered-site-apps.json.

The first five page observations had no final response within five seconds. A second observation followed a confirmed registration transition: droplets 200 / 0.651842 seconds; handoff, filedrop and buildtest no final response within five seconds; tinysite interim 103 only. Request records show handoff 503 / 30.056 seconds, filedrop 503 / 52.541 seconds, and buildtest 502 / 21.775 seconds. The first droplets cold request later completed 200 / 16.953 seconds. Do not describe the five-site bar as met.

Handoff app records include UrlResolutionException, bytecode references and end-of-stream text. Filedrop includes SandboxException and a closed-channel diagnostic. Tinysite includes URL relay / connection setup diagnostics. These are observations, not a proven remaining mechanism.

Recovery and operator constraints

No rollback was performed: CN management became ready and no new site regression was demonstrated against the all-unavailable baseline. The merged CN remains running. No application was manually restarted.

Previous saved artifact: /root/ContainerNursery/bin/container-nursery-d84bf644-DEPCN2-20261023.jar . Previously verified SHA256: a1efd448bbb78b509b2bb78b49f9d4a4122bb5015b683ab419777dbdffb5eed9 . Prior unit was containernursery-DEPCN5-rollback-d84bf644-20261026.service with PID 3216386. Prepared recovery unit: containernursery-DEPCN-rollback-61037c23-FIXOSHI-20261026T231719Z.service .

The resumable helper can rebuild its settings from the pushed summaries and saved DEPCN baseline after a fresh clone. Its rollback operation uses HCF reads and only systemd stop/start over SSH. Preserve evidence before any rollback. The current brief explicitly approved SSH on port 23 only for stopping CN and starting its transient systemd unit, plus recovery equivalents; use HCF / CN CLI 0.0.23 otherwise. Do not start CN through HCF. No extra approval was needed for the deployment just recorded.

The brief forbids manual app restarts, new production deployments beyond the authorized CN change/recovery, merges, queue updates and Maven publication. Do not interpret this record as permission for additional operations.

Tool notes

HCF read-file returns empty data for the proc cmdline pseudo-file and limits regular reads to 10 MB. The prior 134064479-byte archive could not be downloaded for a fresh checksum, so its retained immutable path and previously verified hash were used. HCF process data and the transient unit independently confirmed current flags and identities.

HCF archive upload ended at chunk 154/265 with a connection timeout and exit 1. The explicitly permitted SCP transfer then completed with exit 0. The target is a unique versioned path.

CLI 0.0.23 health-detailed and containers later returned a parse error for QUARANTINED state; routes and logs still completed. This is a client format limitation and does not establish management HTTP unavailability.

The initially chosen evidence branch already contained unrelated October 23 work, so those pushes were not accepted. All local commits are now on the dated branch above, verified by remote head and GitHub contents API. The local helper was renamed from operator.py to cn_deploy.py to avoid a Python standard-library name conflict.
