Tests + SPEC §12.4 + CHANGELOG + VERSION. Tag + push. +- [x] **Slice 2 — runner container + provisioning artifacts.** `runner/Dockerfile`, + `runner/entrypoint.sh`, `runner/cloudbuild.yaml`, + `scripts/patchwatch-runner-deploy.sh`.

Verified. +- [x] **Slice 4 — docs + transcript.** + +--- + +## Pre-session state + +- flotilla `main` = `70ba3b0` (v1.6.0 — authenticated Gitea reads). Tags through + v1.6.0 pushed. Working tree clean. +- Patchwatch radar logic complete and live from the laptop (`flotilla audit`); + session 0052 resolved the private-repo blocker with a dedicated read token + (`wiggleverse-ohm/ohm-rfc-app-gitea-read-token`). `audit` ran clean (9 + findings, 0 scanner_errors). +- The handoff offered three unblocked moves; the operator chose **#3, the cloud + runner**, over the Phase 2 OS layer and a design-only pass (via AskUserQuestion). +- The tqdm fast-lane bump (#1) stays blocked on Track Δ; the Phase 5 + auto-initiate tier was explicitly off-limits. + +--- + +## Turn-by-turn arc + +### Arc 1 — Orient + scope the runner + +Read the audit module, registry/DB, secret resolution, and `register-ohm.sh`. +Key findings that shaped the design: +- `secrets.read_secret` uses ADC via the google client library → in Cloud Run + the runtime SA's metadata creds resolve it; no gcloud CLI needed in the image + for the three network-readable layers. +- The deployment record lives in a local SQLite (`OHM_RFC_APP_FLOTILLA_DATA_DIR`). + The container bootstraps an **ephemeral** record (non-secret §13 coordinates + + the gitea-read **secret reference** — never the bytes; §3 invariant 1). +- The `os` layer needs IAP-SSH, which a read-only runner identity deliberately + lacks → the runner scans `py-app` + `node-app` + `flotilla` and omits `os` + (OS visibility stays a laptop / Phase-2 concern). This matched the operator's + mental model in the handoff ("Secret Manager access" only, no IAP). + +### Arc 2 — Slice 1: audit cloud-runner gates (v1.7.0) + +`--layer` made repeatable (`run_audit` already took a list). Added two +lane/blindness-aware exit gates because the design's alerting is **lane**-based +while the existing `--fail-on` is severity-based: +- `--fail-on-lane fast|routine|mitigation` (repeatable) — catches a + KEV-escalated sub-HIGH (`fast` at MEDIUM) that `--fail-on high` would miss. +- `--fail-on-scanner-error` — a blind radar (revoked token / lost SM access) + pages instead of silently reporting "all clear." + +Verifying the exact runner invocation locally surfaced the **first real bug**: +the laptop's ADC had expired mid-session, and the resulting Secret Manager +failure came back as a `RetryError` (retry budget exhausted) — which +`secrets.read_secret` did NOT wrap, so it escaped as a raw google exception and +**crashed the whole audit** instead of degrading to a `scanner_error` +(violating §2 + the Phase-1 acceptance "degrade, don't crash"). Fixed by +catching the common base `GoogleAPIError` (covers both `GoogleAPICallError` and +`RetryError`) at the `read_secret` boundary. Re-ran: clean degrade — app layers +recorded `scanner_error`, the `flotilla` layer still scanned. This is +load-bearing for an unattended runner. + +### Arc 3 — Slice 2: container + provisioning artifacts + +`runner/Dockerfile` (osv-scanner binary copied from the pinned ghcr image + +`pip install .`), `runner/entrypoint.sh` (ephemeral record bootstrap → audit), +`runner/cloudbuild.yaml`, `scripts/patchwatch-runner-deploy.sh`. + +The container run surfaced the **second bug**: this was flotilla's first real +**wheel** install, and `__version__` read VERSION via a repo-root-relative path +that exists for source/editable runs but not in site-packages → the installed +CLI crashed on import. Fixed to read the repo-root VERSION when present (live, +for dev) and fall back to the installed distribution metadata. + +Re-ran the container: clean degrade (no GCP creds locally), the `flotilla` layer +scanned via the in-container osv-scanner (4 findings), and `--fail-on-scanner-error` +correctly exited non-zero on the blind app layers. Bumped VERSION/pyproject to +1.7.0, wrote the CHANGELOG, committed on `release/v1.7.0`, merged `--no-ff` to +`main`, tagged + pushed (via the SSH remote URL — the HTTPS origin's osxkeychain +helper can't unlock non-interactively). + +### Arc 4 — Slice 3: provisioning (blocked on re-auth, then live) + +Both the gcloud account token AND ADC needed interactive re-auth (expired during +the long session) — surfaced to the operator, who re-authed (`gcloud auth login`). +Then ran `scripts/patchwatch-runner-deploy.sh`. Real-world friction, each fixed +in-script (→ v1.7.1): +1. `gcloud builds submit` → `PERMISSION_DENIED` (account lacks Cloud Build). + Pivoted to a LOCAL `docker build --platform linux/amd64 --provenance=false` + + push (the `--provenance=false` matters — a buildx attestation manifest list + trips Cloud Run's single-image expectation), then `--skip-build`. +2. `--set-env-vars PATCHWATCH_FAIL_ON_LANE=fast,mitigation` — the comma parsed + as a second env-var pair; fixed with gcloud's `^@^` alternate-delimiter. +3. SA-creation propagation lag (binding ran before the SA was visible) — the + idempotent re-run cleared it. +4. The `beta`/`alpha` gcloud components weren't installed (non-interactive + prompt) — installed them. +5. The monitoring channel-list filter rejected the unquoted email as ambiguous — + quoted it. + +Set `--max-retries 0` (a `--fail-on` exit is deterministic; the 6h schedule is +the retry cadence). Final idempotent re-run exited 0, no errors. + +**Verified end-to-end.** A manual execution produced a full JSON report: +`pinned_version 0.31.3` (the SA resolved the private pin + lockfiles), +`scanner_errors: []`, `lane_counts fast=1 routine=7 mitigation=0`, and +`Container called exit(1)` — the live tqdm HIGH fast finding tripping +`--fail-on-lane fast`. Triggering the **scheduler** manually created a fresh +execution (proving the scheduler→job `run.invoker` auth path) that reached +terminal `failedCount=1` — the full chain through to the alert policy. +Least-privilege confirmed: the runner SA has **zero** project-wide roles, only +`secretAccessor` on the one secret + `run.invoker` on the one job. + +### Arc 5 — Parallel-session SPEC collision (the wrong turn) + +Committing v1.7.1, `git add -A` swept in an ~80-line `SPEC.md` addition (a §19.2 +"per-PR preview environments" candidate) that a **parallel session** had written +into the shared checkout — not my work. Traced it (absent in v1.6.0 and my +v1.7.0 commit; present only in the working tree). A `git reset` then compounded +it: I reset to the stale remote-tracking ref `origin/main` (still at 70ba3b0, +because I'd pushed via the explicit SSH URL, which doesn't advance the tracking +ref) and rewound past v1.7.0 too. Nothing was lost (`--mixed` keeps the tree). +Recovered by resetting to the `v1.7.0` tag, re-committing v1.7.1 with **only my +five files** (SPEC.md left untouched, foreign content preserved uncommitted for +its owner), pushing via SSH, and manually syncing the tracking ref. This is the +[[feedback_worktree_for_parallel_git]] lesson realized — I worked in the shared +checkout rather than an isolated worktree; the SPEC collision is exactly what +that rule guards against. + +### Arc 6 — Close-out + +Verified the cloud resources + least-privilege. Updated +[[project_patchwatch_strategy]] memory (Phase 1 LIVE). Deliberately did NOT edit +the ohm-rfc ROADMAP #43 row — that checkout is parked on another session's +`roadmap/43-patchwatch` branch, and after the SPEC collision the disciplined +call was to leave it untouched and flag the annotation in the handoff. + +--- + +## Cut state (end of session) + +| Repo / resource | State | +| --- | --- | +| flotilla `main` | `5cf5ecd` (Merge v1.7.1); tags `v1.7.0`, `v1.7.1` pushed | +| flotilla working tree | ONE uncommitted change: a parallel session's `SPEC.md` §19.2 "preview environments" addition (~80 lines at line 1501) — left for its owner | +| Cloud Run job | `patchwatch-radar` (us-central1), SA `patchwatch-runner@`, image `…/patchwatch/radar:1.7.0`, `--max-retries 0`, env `PATCHWATCH_FAIL_ON_LANE=fast,mitigation` | +| Cloud Scheduler | `patchwatch-radar-6h`, `0 */6 * * *`, ENABLED | +| Runner SA | `patchwatch-runner@wiggleverse-ohm` — ZERO project roles; `secretAccessor` on `ohm-rfc-app-gitea-read-token` + `run.invoker` on the job | +| Monitoring | email channel → ben@wiggleverse.org; alert policy "Patchwatch radar job failure (OHM)" (open incident: the tqdm fast finding) | +| OHM live | untouched (read-only session; no rfc-app deploy) | +| ohm-rfc | untouched; checkout parked on `roadmap/43-patchwatch` (clean) | + +| #43 Patchwatch ledger | Status | +| --- | --- | +| Phase 1 — radar read-only + alert | ✅ detection logic (≤0052) + **always-on cloud runner (this session)** | +| Phase 2 — OS layer (`unattended-upgrades` + reboot handling) | ⏸ unblocked, not started | +| Phase 3 — mitigation lane (rfc-app kill-switches) | ⏸ needs rfc-app coordination | +| Phase 5 — tiered auto-initiate | ⛔ depends on Track Δ existing | + +--- + +## §19.2 candidates surfaced + +1. **`flotilla-core` extraction** — unchanged from the proposal; the cloud + runner is the first piece of flotilla that runs off-laptop.

Apply it on whichever branch owns #43. +3. **Recurring alert decision.** The radar will keep an open Monitoring incident + while the tqdm fast bump is blocked on Track Δ. If the email is unwelcome, + redeploy the job with `PATCHWATCH_FAIL_ON_LANE=mitigation` (the fast finding + stays visible in the JSON logs). No action strictly required. +4. **Optional:** re-auth ADC (`gcloud auth application-default login`) if you + want to run `flotilla audit` from the laptop again — the cloud runner doesn't + need it (it uses its SA). + +--- + +## Prompt the operator can paste into the next Claude Code session + +``` +You are picking up after session 0053.
