Lab honesty track

Evidence level: laboratory review. This page records the 2026-08-17 CoNET-DLE MVP review, the 2026-08-18 clock + Explorer clock overlay, and read-only runtime scrapes through the post-window assessment at 2026-09-23T15:16:45.701Z. It is not a production SDK, not a production signing specification, and the final result is not 30-day qualification.

Status in one sentence

The 30-day wall clock elapsed, but the qualification gate did not pass. The post-window scrape at 2026-09-23T15:16:45.701Z found the formal seven 7/7 HTTP-reachable, clock-aligned, sticky operator-inventory-frozen, leafCount=9750, and seating QUALIFIED; however, pilotQualified was 0/7, heartbeat quorum was only 3/7, and no terminal evidence closed the required rotation / re-home / takeover counters. The operator health facade intentionally never asserts qualification. The inventory freeze blocks new hash-catalogue writes; it does not freeze roster membership or replay/catch-up locator writes. Formal nodes reported 9–10 roster entries and officialStandbyReadyCount=4; this is a boundary drift, not evidence that four official standbys exist. The current helper excludes only extra fd-08, allowing extra Seoul standby roles to enter the “official” count. bftProcessStarted, hashIndexCommittedInAc, and production (C_G) availability remained 0/7. Final assessment: partial success, not qualified. Do not unfreeze, promote a standby, enable production signing, claim production readiness, or invent P26.

What is live

Band Result Still not
P0–P4 control plane Isolated 7-host lab, read-only explorer, JSON-RPC facade Production OperatorDomain / production DePIN gossip
P5 L1 stack 16/16 Blockscout-verified UUPS on CoNET L1 224422, deployBlock=847316 Verified bytecode ≠ 5+2 qualification

M6–M7 plane liveGroupCount: 2; typed tipStateRoot / membershipRoot G2 BFT and on-demand stay off

Official Home Archives stays 7 (5 active + 2 standby). Extra standby fd-08 / fd-08-hosthatch-hk1 may join the lab but does not count as an official seat.

What is engine-only (P12–P22)

These gates replace laboratory HMAC envelopes with laboratory EIP-712 typed data in the repository engine. They reuse the seating key and the existing string groupId field. They are not production OperatorDomain / secp256k1 / L1 settle.

lab-cli and isolated node.ts may return 409 ERR_NEWCHAIN_STANDBY_NOT_READY until two official standbys are ready. Isolated node.ts does not start the seating tick and does not freeze inventory.

P23 live keep-deploy (landed, honest 6/7)

npm run lab:deploy-g1-keep (keep-data; merge G1+G2 planeDirectory; do not restart G2) put the P12–P22 binary on the official G1 roster.

Host Deploy Overlay
fd-01 … fd-05, fd-07 LIVE_OK seatingEip712 / challengeEip712 / bftEip712 / ondemandEip712 / standbyReadyEip712 under health.syncQualification
fd-06 official standby STARTED after hung-lab-cli SIGKILL; no LIVE_OK. Keep-data retry still missed liveness /liveness and /health timeout (event-loop starve). Not a stable official standby host

fd-01 POST /newchain/request walked 409 ERR_NEWCHAIN_STANDBY_NOT_READY (officialStandbyReadyCount=0 at 2026-08-17T23:13:41.428Z) → 200 accept (requestId 0xe8229f1635d681d5b48430b5cd4a09e2c7787d4e4338a60c512ce9ab9d81b472, count=2 at 2026-08-17T23:18:22.095Z).

officialStandbysReady is not a durable seven-host true. After the accept window, some LIVE_OK hosts dropped back to count=0 when inventory roots drifted. Extra fd-08 stays unofficial. G2 BFT/ondemand stay off. Evidence: CoNET-DLE pilot/evidence/conet-dle-p23-live-2026-08/.

Do not treat unit tests alone as the live proof, and do not write “seven hosts already cut over and stay healthy.”

P24 isolated node.ts gate (landed)

startArchiveNode now passes the same officialStandbysReady callback into createNewChainEngine as lab-cli syncHolder. Extra fd-08 still does not count. Isolated node.ts does not sync.start() and does not apply inventory freeze. Test: CoNET-DLE runtime/test/node-standby-gate.test.ts. Full npm run runtime:test was 154/154 at P24; current engine/tests are 159/159.

This is not a live seven-host redeploy and not 7/7 healthy.

P25 Explorer overlays (landed)

Explorer Certificates + Home show non-green read-only chips for officialStandbysReady / hashIndexCommittedInAc (explorer/src/lib/labOverlays.ts). Green seating pills stay seatingQualified === true only (archiveSeating.ts unchanged). Missing overlay fields omit the chip.

This is not production AC commitment, not seating, and not 30-day qualification.

P25 seating-copy honesty (same gate, not P26): Home Seating gauge and archive detail must say lab EIP-712 seated, never lab HMAC. Green pills stay seatingQualified === true only. This is leftover P12 display honesty, not a new serial gate.

The first P25 public SPA was index-U1o9ul_I.js (2026-08-18T00:18:49Z). That bundle is historical. The current public SPA is the later clock-overlay publish below.

Clock + Explorer clock overlay (2026-08-18, not P26)

Operator authorized lab:start-pilot-clock. Live pilotStartedAt=2026-08-18T09:53:58.092Z (warmupStartedAt=2026-08-14T17:10:16.786Z). /health shows pilotRunning=true, pilotQualified=false, clockIsNotQualification=true. Counters stay 0.

Explorer Home + Certificates show a non-green pilotClockPill (30-day clock running (not qualified) when running; 30-day clock not started when explicit null). Missing clock fields omit the chip. pilotQualified: true is ignored. The clock chip is never green.

Tests: npm run explorer:test 10/10. Runtime tests: npm run runtime:test 159/159. Pilot tests: 19/19.

Public SPA publish (not P26): parent-repo scripts/deployDleExplorer.sh rsynced the clock-overlay bundle to 70.35.205.77:/var/www/dle.conet.network/ and reloaded the explorer nginx vhost only. dle.conet.network now serves index-C8IdTq4H.js (2026-08-18T10:15:00Z). It did not restart EL/CL/validator and did not change archive seating.

Starting the clock and painting the clock are not 30-day qualification. Do not invent P26.

Runtime scrape (~13.8h into clock, 2026-08-18T23:41Z)

Direct GET :27101/health on official 7 + extra fd-08 (not a new serial gate; not P26):

Check Result
HTTP OK / pilotRunning / clock aligned 8/8
pilotQualified 0/8 true
Seating QUALIFIED / seatingQualified 8/8
lastQuorumOk 6/8 — fd-02 false (lastPeerOk=5); fd-07 false (lastPeerOk=0)
leafCount / officialStandbysReady / lastACRef / hashIndexRoot omitted on all eight this scrape — do not treat omit as 0 / false / empty inventory (clock-start evidence had leaf 9750 on most seats)
bftProcessStarted false on all eight
Public SPA still index-C8IdTq4H.js

fd-07 peer=0 is a reachability watch, not seating eviction and not authorization to auto-promote standby. Public nginx upstream only rotates active keepers; a single public /health hit must not be read as the whole fleet.

Runtime scrape (~45.8h into clock, 2026-08-20T07:43:59Z)

Direct GET :27101/health on official 7 plus observed extra fd-08:

Check Result
Official HTTP OK / pilotRunning / clock aligned 7/7
Official pilotQualified 0/7 true
Official seating QUALIFIED / seatingQualified 7/7
Official lastQuorumOk 6/7 — active fd-05 false (lastPeerOk=1)
Observed extra fd-08 quorum false (lastPeerOk=5); not counted in official 5+2
leafCount / officialStandbysReady / AC roots omitted on every reply — do not treat omit as 0, false, or empty inventory
bftProcessStarted / hashIndexCommittedInAc false on every reply
Public health / SPA upstream fd-03 reported quorum true (peer=6); SPA remains index-C8IdTq4H.js

The changed heartbeat witness is a reachability observation only. It does not evict fd-05, promote either standby, or authorize a restart, wipe, or a new P26 gate. Previous fd-02 / fd-07 false responses are not retroactively erased; the moving witness supports the rule that heartbeat is not seating.

Post-window freeze assessment (2026-09-23)

The nominal 30-day endpoint was 2026-09-17T09:53:58.092Z. The final read-only scrape was taken about 6.22 days later.

Check Formal seven result
HTTP / aligned clock / pilotRunning 7/7
Sticky operator inventory freeze 7/7
leafCount 9750 on 7/7
Seating QUALIFIED / seatingQualified 7/7
pilotQualified 0/7 true
lastQuorumOk 3/7 — fd-01, fd-04, fd-06; fd-05 had peer=0
Reported officialStandbyReadyCount 4 on 7/7 — invalid as proof of the frozen two-standby boundary
bftProcessStarted / hashIndexCommittedInAc / production (C_G) 0/7 true or available

Why elapsed time is not qualification

operatorPilotClockHealth() deliberately returns pilotQualified: false. The separate PilotQualificationGate requires at least 100 rotations, 30 re-homes, and 100 takeovers after the continuous window. The terminal scrape does not provide completion evidence for those counters. A completed wall clock is therefore necessary evidence of elapsed time, not a sufficient qualification verdict.

Why the freeze did not preserve the 5+2 boundary

InventoryFreeze prevents new hash catalogue writes but permits replay/catch-up putLocator operations. It does not freeze syncRoster. The formal nodes reported 9–10 roster entries, including extra fd-08, fd-09, and fd-10, and their views were not identical. isOfficialStandbyRole currently excludes only fd-08; extra Seoul standby roles can therefore inflate officialStandbyReadyCount to four. That count must not be shown or consumed as “four official standbys ready.”

Result and follow-up

The review is closed as partial success / not qualified. There is no automatic next serial gate. Before any new operational authorization, correct and test the roster / official-standby classification boundary, restore an agreed formal roster view, and collect explicit counter evidence for the actual PilotQualificationGate. Do not auto-unfreeze, auto-promote, enable production signers, or claim production readiness. Do not invent P26.

Parked

Explorer rule that does not change

A green seating pill is allowed only when seatingQualified === true. Heartbeat lastQuorumOk is reachability. Do not invent additional dle.* hostnames. The authorized explorer is https://dle.conet.network/.
