## Launch prompt

```
OHM driver session. Read ~/git/ohm-infra/SESSION-PROTOCOL.md and
~/projects/wiggleverse/ohm-rfc/ROADMAP.md (Phase F / Track Δ, #37–#42)
first. Claim your session id via claim-session-id.sh --start <now>.

Session 0046 recorded the operator's Track-Δ design decisions into the
docs (engineering handbook §10 + ohm-rfc ROADMAP). Nothing was built —
all of Track Δ is GATED ON flotilla v1. The decided shape:

- Two-tier testing (handbook §10.3 / ROADMAP #38, #40): env-agnostic
  suite (one BASE_URL + mail-sink API URL). Tier 1 = local Docker per-PR
  (no VM); Tier 2 = PPE as the deploy gate. The #40 N−1/N compat gate
  runs first in Tier-1 Docker, PPE as prod-like confirmation.
- #37 PPE = COMPLETELY SEPARATE infra (handbook §10.1 / ROADMAP #37):
  own GCP micro instance + separate gcloud stack (own project/config) +
  own Gitea at ppe.git.wiggleverse.org colocated on the PPE VM. NOT
  colocated on prod; only flotilla's code-deploy gesture crosses over.
  Auth in tests = OTC (OAuth caveat resolved, #5 shipped).
- #38 Tier-1 Gitea = stub for the fast inner loop, real Gitea for the
  gate (Tier 2 uses PPE's own Gitea). Scaffold OPEN at rfc-app PR #4
  (branch session-0046/e2e-tier1-scaffold, e2e/ dir, NOT a release).
- #42 auto-rollback = always-on VM-side watcher (systemd daemon, DB-free
  rollback only; bounded carve-out from flotilla laptop-only).
- Open follow-on (not decided): self-host PROD Gitea on the prod VM too.

CONFIRM flotilla v1 timing with the operator before standing up ANYTHING
on a VM (PPE micro instance, the PPE/prod Gitea, DNS). Work that does NOT
need the VM and can proceed now: flesh out rfc-app PR #4 toward a passing
Tier-1 suite (Dockerfiles + the (B) gitea stub + the (A) gitea bootstrap
+ real selectors) — that's #38.

Heads-up: 0046 hit a wedged Gitea merge-queue (persistent 405); harness
Bash/Read corruption; verify git state against committed blobs; --max-time
on every curl; check git branch -r --contains before assuming PR merge path.
