- 2026-09-16 02:32-02:48Z - #315 filed (WAN MSG admitted while knock pending on the 0.70.0 broker; refused by 0.69.0 with tier NodeMode). Source: gate.rs identical across releases; Allow never logs; an ImplicitOpen bottom is silent. ball-b posture: BIGNET unmoded => chain bottoms out open. Hypothesis: origin subnet set gained BIGNET across the restart. hertz RCA queued. Not in #307 unless a confirmed regression; a posture defect is operator territory (#313). - 2026-09-16 02:44Z - hertz W2 rig gated PASS as instrument (50876f70; cfg(windows); HEAVY filter only; negative control RED with partitioned checks). LANDING HELD: rides todlando's W2b PR as commit 1 of 2; python under Runner.Worker to be pinned (SPT_REFRESH_RIG_PYTHON) or evidenced. - 2026-09-16 02:35Z - #226 gate mechanics PASS on my side (cargo check --tests 0; spt-store 641/641 incl. 3 two-process cells; checker 923/0; fixup delta = one doc sentence). Landing waits on the CI Windows leg for f6b1dd9a. - 2026-09-16 02:48Z - hertz ENLYZEAM 1 Hz series (180/180, 02:44:36-02:47:35Z, broker 48932/0.70.0): canary age p50 18 ms, p95 1872, p99 3991, max 4912; 17 samples >= 1 s; active_dial_tasks 0 in ALL 180. Stale canary WITHOUT counted dials on a box with 4/7 peers dead at quic-connect for ~4.9 days. Reads as candidate #1 (runtime-progress starvation) with the starving work NOT in the counted dial population - suspect pump-round submit_dial to dead peers (10 s bound, PUMP_PEER_FAIL x89). Correlation asks out: ball-b PUMP_PEER_FAIL timestamps in the window; hertz pump period + whether active_dial_tasks counts submit_dial. If it holds: W2c remedy = seam B covering BOTH dial and submit_dial (REMEDY-DESIGN already says so), plus the gauge population fix.
