▶️ (rev92) RESUME HERE (2026-06-17 ~02:45) — 🟢 9 commits pushed (`9aa8d2d`) · 6 real fixes + §11.4.40 GREEN + -race CLEAN · LLMsVerifier verifier-side SHIPPED (verified-count=2) · helixtranslate enable NOT-VIABLE → auto-rolled-back → NON-degraded + working

SHORT (rev92): HEAD 9aa8d2d (all 4 remotes synced). retest_v4 (parent build + go test ./...) GREEN at HEAD with verifier gitlink ed03a98c. 9 session commits (99bb7a8→a99327b→989f5d1→62cbb28→4223e7c→2a36a57→98e0450→2a36a57-era … →ed03a98c(submodule)→9aa8d2d(gitlink bump)). 6 real fixes shipped: version-const, SQLite SQLITE_BUSY, api-server version-lie, handler request-context, redis observability, + the verifier verify-completion feature.

LLMsVerifier arc — HONEST CONCLUSION (operator-authorized "wire it all")

✅ Verifier source SHIPPED — submodule ed03a98c (verify-completion: VerifyModelHandler runs real ModelVerificationService.VerifyModel + persists honest status/score; + code_verification.go auth-header fix) pushed FF github+gitlab; parent gitlink bumped (9aa8d2d). Live nezha /api/models count(verified)=2 (deepseek-chat 0.80, llama-3.3-70b 1.0, real scores). Reviewed GO; build+test GREEN.
⛔ helixtranslate enable = NOT VIABLE → AUTO-ROLLED-BACK. Enabling rerouted translation through the bridge HTTP-mode which selects verified models, but those models have NO usable translator binding on this deployment → translation FAILED (bridge: no verified translator available). The subagent's mechanical never-degrade guard auto-rolled-back: restored .env.nezha (gitignored, net-zero change, NOT tracked → nothing to commit), disconnected the verifier net, redeployed → baseline translation RE-CONFIRMED working (Добро јутро via llm-novita, 0 errors, all 6 containers healthy, verified-models back to "disabled"). helixtranslate NON-degraded. Evidence docs/qa/ + /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/helixtranslate_enable_20260616T222048Z/.
📋 §11.4.150 finding (verify-score is NOT a quality measure): the verifier score (groq 1.0 vs deepseek 0.80) is a liveness/availability gate — keyword-density over a trivial "do you see my code?" probe with a 0.70 floor; ZERO translation-quality signal; MinScoreThreshold default 0.0. So enabling would be a liveness-gated lateral move, NOT a quality upgrade. Evidence /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/research_verify_completion.md.

🔴 OPERATOR ACTIONS / tracked follow-ups (none block the working build)

SECURITY (§11.4.10/CONST-042): rotate verifier JWT_SECRET in nezha /home/milosvasic/helix-system/llmsverifier/.env — a subagent transcript inadvertently surfaced its value (transcript DELETED; never reached git; precautionary).
LLMsVerifier full enablement (future cycle): wire usable provider translators for verified models (or bridge fallback to the direct path when a verified model has no translator) — a tracked CODE change in the repo, NOT just env; AND add real translation-quality scoring (chrF/COMET-class) + raise MinScoreThreshold >0 before relying on the ranking (per the §11.4.150 finding). Until then helixtranslate stays on the proven working direct path.
auth.go:31 short-JWT-secret panic (LOW→MED, OPERATOR-DECIDE A vs B): config.Validate() doesn't enforce len(JWTSecret)>=16 so a misconfigured short/empty secret panics at startup instead of a clean error. Ready diffs (Option A return-error / Option B Validate-len-check) in /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/design_low_robustness.md. 6 other LOW items = LEAVE (safe-by-construction).
Version-display Makefile cosmetic (rev90) + untracked test fixtures (rev90) unchanged.

SHORT (rev91): HEAD 98e0450 (all 4 remotes synced). Operator authorized "wire it all + do it all". Since rev90, 3 more commits via parallel worktree subagents (each independently reviewed GO, merged main-loop): 2a36a57 (redis ListSessions logs swallowed errors + fallback residual-limitation documented §11.4 observability) → 98e0450 (handlers propagate c.Request.Context()+5min bound — audit HIGH context-misuse, all 6 sites proven SYNC §11.4.102, mutation-proven guard). 7 session commits total (99bb7a8→a99327b→989f5d1→62cbb28→4223e7c→2a36a57→98e0450). §11.4.40 retest GREEN at HEAD; -race CLEAN. LLMsVerifier (operator-authorized) — seed-at-boot now WORKING on nezha: verifier image rebuilt WITH seed code (CGO amd64, rollback img llm-verifier:nezha-prev-20260617T003159Z, src staged /home/milosvasic/helix-system/llmsverifier-src), config.yaml rendered (deepseek+groq, secrets never printed), /api/models count 0→2 (seed log providers +2 models +2). Evidence subagent report. BUT both models pending, NOT verified → never-degrade guard HOLDS (helixtranslate gate needs verified → NOT enabled, translation stays on working direct path). Verify-completion feature being implemented (verifier VerifyModelHandler only inserts a "running" row, never runs the real ModelVerificationService.VerifyModel nor persists status — subagent wiring it w/ TDD). NEXT: review the verify-completion impl → commit to verifier submodule + bump gitlink → rebuild nezha → run real verify pass → INSPECT scores → enable helixtranslate ONLY if a sink-side translation through a verified model proves correct (§11.4.69/§11.4.107 quality gate); else leave NON-degraded + operator.

SHORT (rev90): HEAD 62cbb28 (all 4 remotes synced). Since rev89, added a 4th commit 62cbb28 — api-server /health + /api info now report version.AppVersion (were hardcoded "3.0.0"/"1.0.0"; §11.4.108 lie-class) + §11.4.135 deterministic guard TestHealthCheckReportsAuthoritativeVersion (RED-on-revert proven). Independent design review (/Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/design_version_hygiene2.md) corrected the audit: grpc-server/unified-translator/server ALREADY report 2.3.1 via const appVersion=version.AppVersion (Go -ldflags -X can't set a const → Makefile ldflag is a harmless no-op; Makefile cosmetic VERSION=3.0.0 left for operator). 4 session commits: 99bb7a8 (version-const+SQLite+scanner) → a99327b (CONTINUATION+verifier-block) → 989f5d1 (SQLite deterministic guard) → 62cbb28 (api-server version). -race sweep CLEAN on 6 concurrency pkgs. LLMsVerifier wiring still HONEST-BLOCKED (operator) — see docs/qa/llmsverifier_wire_attempt_20260616T203122Z/STATE.md. NEXT = operator items below.

🔶 ROBUSTNESS FOLLOW-UPS (audit-found this session, NOT fixed — need investigate-before-fix; evidence `/Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/audit_robustness2.md`)

HIGH — handler request-context misuse: pkg/api/handler.go:277/438/575/924 + batch_handlers.go:145/275 use context.Background() (no client-disconnect cancellation, no timeout → a stuck provider hangs the handler). DO NOT blind-fix: must FIRST determine per-site whether the translate path is ASYNC (returns session_id, translation must OUTLIVE the request → Background() is CORRECT) vs SYNC (§11.4.102). If sync, propagate c.Request.Context() + bounded timeout (the sites at handler.go:1166/1251/1429/1609 already do WithTimeout(5min)). If async, leave Background() but consider a generous standalone timeout. Wrong fix = cancels in-flight book translations on disconnect = regression.
MED: pkg/distributed/fallback.go:215 abandoned goroutine runs to completion after waiter times out (load amplification); pkg/storage/redis.go:111/117 ListSessions silently continues on errors (anti-bluff observability gap).
LOW: unchecked map type-assertions (multi_llm.go:173/200/206/207/220, handler.go:1564, verifier_handlers.go:271/272 — safe-by-construction today, panic-on-drift); models/downloader.go:109 uncancellable download; library panics (security/auth.go:31, models/registry.go:47/70, logger.go:220 os.Exit) — return-error candidates.
Verified CLEAN: postgres pool bounded 25/5 + ctx queries; all LLM providers propagate ctx + close bodies; ssh_pool ctx-cancellation OK; no stray sql.Open/http.DefaultClient.

Untracked test fixtures (§11.4.124 — RESOLVED: LEAVE)

test/assets/crow_original.md + test/fixtures/ebooks/{sample,spanish_sample}_original.md: NOT referenced by any test (no fresh-clone failure), never tracked, with gitignored *_translated output siblings → transient round-trip inputs (possibly another stream's live input). LEFT untouched (not committed, not deleted). Evidence /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/fixture_provenance.md.

▶️ (rev89) RESUME HERE (2026-06-16 ~20:40) — 🟢 OVERNIGHT STABILITY BATCH committed+pushed (`99bb7a8`) · 2 real bugs fixed + §11.4.40 GREEN · LLMsVerifier wiring HONEST-BLOCKED (operator) · nezha NON-degraded

SHORT: Read this file + .remember/remember.md FIRST, then git fetch --all --prune. HEAD 99bb7a8 (all 4 remotes synced: origin/github/upstream/githubhelixdevelopment). 🏷️ helix_translate-2.3.1 still the release tag (main+10 submodules). This overnight loop fixed 2 REAL bugs + a scanner false-positive, all reviewed GO + proven, committed 99bb7a8 (FF-pushed): (1) pkg/version/app.go AppVersion 2.3.0→2.3.1 (was RED — VERSION bumped at 236bac8 without the const); (2) pkg/storage/sqlite.go SQLITE_BUSY concurrency (unbounded pool + no busy_timeout → 110/640 concurrent writes failed; fix _busy_timeout=5000 + default SetMaxOpenConns(1), RED→GREEN 5x §11.4.85); (3) credential_scan.sh HTML-escaped-redaction false-positive + ignore-list its own regression test + new scripts/testing/test_credential_scan.sh §11.4.135 guard. §11.4.40 full retest GREEN at the batch (sweep 9/9 + build + go test ./... all pass; evidence /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/overnight_retest4_*.log). LLMsVerifier wiring = HONEST-BLOCKED (operator) — live verifier image (built 15:46Z) PREDATES the seed commit 6e6b0309 (19:26Z); no reproducible on-nezha rebuild context; config.yaml is operator-owned + secret-bearing + Permission-denied (can't populate llms: without handling secrets blind §11.4.10). NOT enabled, nezha NON-degraded. Operator options in docs/qa/llmsverifier_wire_attempt_20260616T203122Z/STATE.md. NEXT = operator decision on verifier (rebuild-with-seed + populate config + verify-pass) + the version-display-hygiene follow-ups below.

⚠️ ENVIRONMENT (this session, FACT)

Root/Data volume was ~100% full (operator data + a concurrent helix_code session) — broke the build harness with ENOSPC repeatedly. Worked around by routing ALL Go temp/cache to T7: export TMPDIR=/Volumes/T7/tmp GOTMPDIR=/Volumes/T7/tmp GOCACHE=/Volumes/T7/helix-build/go-cache XDG_CACHE_HOME=/Volumes/T7/.cache. Reclaimed Homebrew+SwiftPM caches (regenerable). Did NOT delete operator data / the stopped 41G podman machine (§11.4.122). If ENOSPC recurs: find /private/tmp/claude-501 -path '*/tasks/*.output' -mmin +4 -delete (NEVER without -mmin +4 — deletes the in-flight output).

🔶 VERSION-DISPLAY-HYGIENE FOLLOW-UPS (audit-found, NOT fixed — operator-judgment, tracked)

Same defect class as the version-const bug, but display-only + touch the build-version question CLAUDE.md flags as deliberate ("Makefile references 3.0.0 — treat VERSION as authoritative"):

Makefile:5,20 VERSION=3.0.0 + -ldflags -X main.appVersion=$(VERSION) → shipped grpc-server/unified-translator binaries report 3.0.0 not 2.3.1 (§11.4.108 SOURCE→ARTIFACT gap; no test catches the ldflags path).
cmd/api-server/main.go:582 /health hardcodes "version":"3.0.0"; pkg/api/handler.go:214,223 serve "version":"1.0.0".
The version gate (app_test.go + bash CM-VERSION-SINGLE-SOURCE) only matches the = form in cmd/ — blind to ldflags, : map form, pkg/. Broaden + add a post-build <bin> -version==VERSION regression guard. (Design notes were to land in /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/design_version_hygiene.md but that subagent was rate-limited; re-run or do main-loop.) Evidence: /Volumes/T7/helix-build/qa/audit_hygiene.md.

🟢 RELEASE + LLMsVERIFIER ARC (this session, post-rev87)

🏷️ helix_translate-2.3.1 RELEASED — patch fix-cycle tag on main (VERSION 2.3.1) + 10 owned submodules (containers, challenges, doc_processor, llm_orchestrator, llm_provider, vision_engine, llms_verifier, constitution, docs_chain, security), pushed FF to every remote (NO force §11.4.113). EXCLUDED: helix_qa (§11.4.119) + helix_agent (incorporated-not-integrated). Pre-tag §11.4.40 GREEN (sweep 9/9 + build + go test 55 pkgs). Evidence docs/qa/release_helix_translate-2.3.1_20260616T182714Z/. Shipped: nezha 6-svc boot + 6 product defects fixed (commentary-contamination, create-default env-override, verifier 404→503, /health IDLE, unsupported-provider→400); 6-site Translate-arg DATA-LOSS bug-class (4fbe581); multipass+FB2 (c2aa7c8); MINOR-W6-1 (7cabe3f); /providers static-list bug (388a2eb, 19 real providers); secret-hygiene (04f71e9); video 43→66.
⛔ LLMsVerifier populate-then-wire — HONEST-BLOCKED (no bluff, no degrade):
- Separate nezha stack llmsverifier (compose dir /home/milosvasic/helix-system/llmsverifier, container llmsverifier_llm-verifier_1, image llm-verifier:nezha). IP drifted .76→.77 but irrelevant — port bound loopback-only 127.0.0.1:8080. /api/health 200 healthy; /api/models & /api/providers both count:0. Provider keys (GROQ/DEEPSEEK/GOOGLE) ALREADY present in the container env → keys are NOT the blocker.
- Root cause (FACT, llm-verifier/api/server.go Start()): the deployed server mounts EXACTLY 5 hardcoded read routes — GET /api/health, GET /api/models (reads DB, not config), GET /api/models/, POST /api/models/{id}/verify (needs model already in DB), GET /api/providers. NO create/seed route, NO /api/v1/*, NO /auth/login (all → 404, proven). runServer() does NOT seed config.yaml llms: (which is []) into the DB. CLI models create/import POST to /api/v1/models → 404 on this build. batch run is a STUB. The only populate path = direct write to the encrypted SQLite DB (DATABASE_ENCRYPTION_KEY operator-owned, 600-perm .env) → operator-owned config I must NOT autonomously mutate (§11.4.122/§11.4.10/§9.2).
- Decision: DID NOT network connect, DID NOT set LLMSVERIFIER_ENABLED, NO helixtranslate compose/env change. Confirmed safe: GET /api/v1/verified-models → "integration is disabled"; working translation healthy en→sr Добро јутро, како сте? (bridge llm-mistral).

⏭️ NEXT (priority order)

Operator decision on the verifier image (§11.4.66) — Option A (recommended): rebuild llm-verifier:nezha so runServer() seeds config.yaml llms: into the DB at boot (or add a seed/verify-all subcommand writing via database.CreateModel, NOT the HTTP client), populate config.yaml llms: (deepseek+groq), rebuild+restart, POST /api/models/{id}/verify → real score → count>0; THEN run the verified helixtranslate wiring (network connect + LLMSVERIFIER_ENABLED=true + LLMSVERIFIER_API_URL=http://llm-verifier:8080 — note verifier must publish on llmsverifier_default, not loopback-only — + scripts/nezha-deploy.sh reboot + sink-side re-validate /api/v1/verified-models real data). Option B: operator seeds the encrypted DB directly.
Known non-blocking (post-2.3.1, recorded not in tag): see .remember/remember.md.

▶️ (prior) RESUME HERE (2026-06-16 ~20:20) — 🟢 BUG-CLASS FIXES + VIDEO 54→66 + 4-ITEM OPERATOR-REVIEW QUEUE ALL CLEARED (live-validated) · NEXT = bug-class review + full §11.4.40 retest → release-readiness

SHORT: Read this file + .remember/remember.md FIRST, then git fetch --all --prune. HEAD d7b4407 (all 4 remotes synced). Live nezha stack rebuilt onto image 08900424e481 (all 6 services healthy incl. monitor — the stranded-monitor bug is fixed). The 4-item operator-review queue is CLEARED. NEXT: independent review of the §11.4.69/§11.4.115 bug-class fixes (4fbe581 6-site Translate-arg data-loss + 7cabe3f MINOR-W6-1) → full §11.4.40 retest from last tag → release-readiness (operator tag decision per §11.4.151).

🟢 THIS SESSION ARC (since the rev86 nezha heavy-testing arc — all §11.4.142-reviewed GO, live-validated, no bluff)

Live image progression: 2bb4de5 (FB2-fix) → 08900424e481 (this session: /providers fix + all app services recreated). HEAD d7b4407.

PART-A/B/C + bug-class fixes (pre-this-committer-stream, on HEAD before f6b1f1f):
- c2aa7c8 — BUG-MULTIPASS-DEFAULT-MODEL (resolvePolisherModel substitutes a provider-valid model so -multipass genuinely polishes; honest ❌ on real failure) + BUG-FB2-HARDCODED-LANG (FB2 handler honors source_lang/target_lang, validates→400 on unknown). RED→GREEN §11.4.115.
- 04f71e9 — security: scrubbed a leaked SSH password from the tracked tree (§11.4.10/§11.4.30/§11.4.124), closed GAP1/GAP2.
- 4fbe581 — 6-site Translate-arg data-loss bug-class (empty-payload + wrong-content sent to the LLM across the ebook pipeline) §11.4.69/§11.4.115/§11.4.135.
- 7cabe3f — MINOR-W6-1 parser chapter-title duplication §11.4.115/§11.4.135.
- af2ef7f + f6b1f1f — §11.4.153 video waves 4–9: video-confirmed 43→54→66 (+12 net-new waves 7–9, of which 3 genuine PENDING→Confirmed row-flips), §11.4.138 multipass demote, + the cmd/grpc-translate-probe row.
THIS BACKGROUND-COMMITTER STREAM (HEAD f6b1f1f → d7b4407), all 4 operator-review items + drift cleared:
- e5051a5 — #1 Status video-count drift reconcile → 66 (§11.4.6/§11.4.60/§11.4.91): the headline/Anti-bluff-note/Coverage cell were 66 but 3 caveat cells lagged (Status.md "30 feature rows"; Status_Summary Page-1 "30 of 494", Page-2 "43/496") — all reconciled to 66 with explicit §11.4.6 cell-reconciliation notes; docs_chain features verify=in-sync. (docs_chain CANNOT catch internal contradictions — this was a real release-gate blocker.)
- 0246851 — #2 FB2 live re-validation evidence (§11.4.108/§11.4.123/§11.4.83): on nezha 2bb4de5 image, POST /api/v1/translate/fb2 target_lang=es→real Spanish EPUB ("Capítulo de Prueba"…), de→German (distinct), klingon→400. docs/qa/fb2_revalidate_20260616T163552Z/.
- 388a2eb — #3 /api/v1/providers REAL BUG fixed (§11.4.115/§11.4.135/§11.4.6): listProviders served a hardcoded static {openai,anthropic,zhipu,deepseek} list ignoring config → now serves the REAL configured set (configured/available/requires_api_key/model + <PROVIDER>_API_KEY env), complete-catalogue fallback when unconfigured. RED→GREEN polarity test + guard HTQ-FIX-006. Independent review NO-GO→GO (§11.4.134). (cmd/api-server getProviders gRPC path untouched.)
- af23440 — #5b deploy-script dependency-ordering fix (§11.4.108): no-arg nezha-deploy.sh reboot now stop+rm+recreates ALL app services (grpc/api/server/monitor) onto the fresh image (was gated on a named-service arg → left dependents, esp. monitor, on the stale image). Companion doc Rev 2 + exports.
- 702d907 — #4 pkg/api/server.go honest §11.4.124 N/A + record /providers fix in Status (the alt api.Server is NEVER-WIRED test-only scaffolding — kept-not-deleted per §11.4.122/§11.4.124, documented N/A, NOT silently shown as a shipping API). Status Rev 18.
- d7b4407 — #5a + #3 sink-side re-validation (§11.4.108/§11.4.69): rebuilt nezha (image 08900424e481) via the fixed reboot → ALL services incl. monitor recreated + healthy; GET /api/v1/providers returns 19 config-driven providers (NOT the old static 4; openai correctly absent — no key), new fields present. docs/qa/providers_revalidate_20260616T170812Z/.

LIVE STATE ANCHORS (§11.4.6, moment-valid)

HEAD = d7b4407, all 4 remotes (origin/github=milos85vasic/Translator.git + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate.git, upstream, githubhelixdevelopment) synced. NOTE: origin & github push to the SAME repo pair → push them SERIALIZED (parallel pushes race the ref lock; harmless "remote rejected: cannot lock ref" = the loser of the race, re-fetch confirms the tip).
Nezha live stack (nezha.local, ssh host alias nezha.local, repo synced at /home/milosvasic/helixtranslate — a NON-git copy, NOT a clone): image 08900424e481, all 6 helixtranslate-* containers healthy (server-TLS :18443, api :18080, grpc :50061, monitor :18090). Deploy via bash scripts/nezha-deploy.sh reboot ON nezha (rsync changed source to nezha FIRST). cmd/server (:18443/:8443) has a TRANSIENT startup health-window (HTTP/3 QUIC binds slower than the first health probes) — SIGQUIT dump proved it starts clean; wait ~60s then it's healthy.
Build/vet/gofmt clean on the providers fix; full pkg/api suite GREEN; HTQ-FIX-006 guard registered.

NEXT (priority order)

Independent §11.4.142 review of the bug-class fixes (4fbe581 6-site Translate-arg data-loss + 7cabe3f MINOR-W6-1) if not already GO-reviewed in their own stream.
Full §11.4.40 retest from the last release tag to HEAD (pre-build + post-build + nezha live re-validation of every fix's runtime signature + meta-test mutation sweep + Challenge bank incl. HTQ-FIX-006) → release-readiness.
Operator tag decision (§11.4.151 prefix helix_translate-; §11.4.126 release-scope terminal condition; §11.4.113 FF-only no-force-push).

Owed/tracked: re-record live /api/v1/providers for a fresh §11.4.153 Confirmed; markdown-translator EPUB→MD re-record (bug fixed at 4fbe581); continue §11.4.153 video coverage toward the ~remaining eligible features.

▶️ (prior) RESUME HERE (2026-06-16 ~15:00) — 🟢 NEZHA HEAVY-TESTING ARC: api-400 fix + gRPC round-trip + coverage + commentary-escape fix (all live-validated)

🟢 NEZHA HEAVY REAL-SERVICE TESTING — iterations 1→4 (live stack, sink-side, no bluff)

Heavy testing against the LIVE nezha stack (server-TLS :18443, api :18080, grpc :50061). Live image progression: f3904ccd (pre) → 2d0c925 (api-400 fix) → ebb82df (commentary-escape fix; server+grpc+api all on it now, HEALTHY).

🔶 OPERATOR REVIEW QUEUE (heavy-testing arc)

.env.nezha line 48 malformed (§11.4.10 — value NEVER printed/committed): python-dotenv could not parse statement starting at line 48 warns on every nezha deploy ⇒ OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys may not be injected via that path (note: env NAMES OPENAI_API_KEY/ANTHROPIC_API_KEY ARE present <set> in containers, so injection is partial/via another mechanism). Action: operator reformats .env.nezha to one NAME=value per line (no continuation/quotes spanning lines around line 48).
Live LLMsVerifier upstream not cross-network wired ⇒ /api/v1/verified-models cannot serve real upstream data; bridge model-selection at server startup blocks ~3.5min on bridge.Open (5m30s timeout) before binding (NOT a crash — it binds + HEALTHY). Action: enable the nezha LLMsVerifier upstream wiring + set its APIURL so /api/v1/verified-models returns real data and startup model-selection resolves fast.
scripts/nezha-deploy.sh reboot dependency-ordering bug: rebooting a service that has dependents (e.g. grpc-server, which api+server depend_on) fails podman rm ("has dependent containers") and then compose up collides on existing names ⇒ the dependent service silently keeps the OLD image (§11.4.108 risk — caught this run, recovered by stop+rm dependents-first then up). Action: make reboot stop+rm the dependent subtree before rm'ing a depended-on service (or use podman rm --depend/up --force-recreate once supported).

▶️ (prior) RESUME HERE (2026-06-16 ~15:35) — 🟢 NEZHA DISTRIBUTED BOOT COMPLETE (full stack live + real translation verified) · §11.4.153 video program 43 confirmed · release 2.3.0 published

🟢 NEZHA DISTRIBUTED BOOT — DONE + SINK-SIDE VERIFIED (operator-CRITICAL task, COMPLETE)

The whole HelixTranslate System is DEPLOYED + RUNNING on nezha.local (Linux 6.12, 8c/62GB, podman 5.7.1, SSH milosvasic keyed) via the containers submodule (§11.4.76: launcher containers/cmd/deploy-stack commit 20173e8, parent gitlink 6296c03; Phase A defs 2166d2c; JWT fix 1b29668). All 6 services Up HEALTHY: helixtranslate-{postgres,redis,monitor[:18090],grpc[:50061],api[:18080],server-TLS[:18443]} (ports remapped to avoid host conflicts). REAL translation round-trip VERIFIED sink-side (§11.4.69): POST https://nezha.local:18443/api/v1/translate en→es → HTTP 200, provider llm-novita → "El viejo faro se alzaba solitario en la rocosa orilla." Secrets in gitignored .env.nezha on nezha (real JWT_SECRET + all provider keys, chmod-safe, NEVER committed §11.4.10). Stack left RUNNING for heavy testing. NEXT: run the heavy/real-production-service test suites against the live nezha endpoints; any bug → systematic-debugging → fix → rebuild → reboot → re-validate (NO bluff). ⚠️ I premature-stopped progressing agents TWICE during the boot — remote ops are 30-60+min; BE PATIENT, trust completion, suspect hang ONLY if no completion + no ssh/podman/curl subprocess + zero nezha state-change after 60+min.

§11.4.127 SHORT resumption (paste this first sentence into a fresh session)

Read docs/CONTINUATION.md (this file) + .remember/remember.md FIRST, then git fetch --all --prune; NEZHA BOOT COMPLETE (full stack live on nezha.local via containers submodule, real translation verified — see green block above; run heavy testing against it next); the no-local-runtime release helix_translate-2.3.0 is PUBLISHED (tag on main + 10 owned submodules; helix_qa tag OWED §11.4.119); the §11.4.153 per-feature video-confirmation program continues — docs/features/Status.md Rev 14, 43/496 features video-confirmed (waves 1+2+3a: bridge-ensemble/catalogue, DOCX/PDF/gRPC/HTML-MD, providers novita/mistral/groq/siliconflow/cerebras/sambanova — real bridge responses, ffprobe+content-verified, NO bluff), model source = LLMsVerifier bridge (real keys present), HelixAgent incorporated (helix_agent/ pinned) NOT integrated (42-dep graph = deferred operator decision). A release-critical default-path defect the video program CAUGHT is FIXED + re-reviewed GO + guarded: commit 7c2118a (VerifiedFactory routes verifier-selected models through the whitelist-immune path whenever a key exists from ANY source; env-independent §11.4.138 guard; proven GREEN with all 36 *_API_KEY unset). ⚠️ RECORDING ROOT-CAUSE (corrected via systematic-debugging — do NOT repeat the earlier thrash): recording is INTRINSICALLY SLOW (~5–6 min/video: real LLM call + asciinema→agg→ffmpeg + ffprobe + frame-analysis + agent reasoning). The bridge is NOT slow/hung (best-model=1s cached; 600s provider timeout is intentional for long translations). Long stale-output gaps are NORMAL — do NOT misread them as "hung" and premature-stop (that churn killed progressing agents, e.g. wave-3a was stopped AFTER it had committed). DISCIPLINE: dispatch small recording units (2–4 videos), be PATIENT (give 25–30 min before even suspecting a hang), check the DECISIVE signal (did it commit / are mp4s landing / is there an asciinema/ffmpeg/translate subprocess) before stopping. Full autonomous coverage of ~90 remaining eligible features ≈ many hours — a long steady iterative program, not a sprint. Continue the loop (§11.4.126), no force-push (§11.4.113), no git add -A (§11.4.30), never touch helix_qa(§11.4.119)/helix_agent build; SINGLE main-checkout committer at a time (§11.4.84 — reviews read-only, recorders worktree-no-commit); contested checkout (helix_code session shares machine) — verify branch/lock/sync before every commit. NEXT: wave-3 owed (providers deepseek/cerebras/sambanova/hyperbolic/gemini/zhipu/cohere/fireworks/openrouter + REST endpoints + verify-models + workable-items), then continue toward full coverage; web/desktop = honest operator-attended (§11.4.3/§11.4.52). Tracked: thread CLI -max-tokens through bridgeTranslator; commit untracked docs/design/LLMSVERIFIER_BRIDGE.md/.html; clean stale worktree .claude/worktrees/agent-a8ea4f6230cb2ee40.

§11.4.127 FULL resumption (live-state anchors — verified this session against git)

Parent HEAD 3ce413e on main, local == origin/main (verified git fetch --all this session; pushed FF to both upstreams github+HelixDevelopment). Untracked build/* + root binaries are EXTERNAL build-artifact churn (a gemini-cli/data-agent session rebuilds them) — NOT committed (§11.4.30).
⚠️ CONTESTED CHECKOUT (§11.4.84/§11.4.119): an EXTERNAL gemini-cli/data-agent process intermittently runs git checkouts + has left a stale .git/index.lock in this repo. BEFORE EVERY commit: (a) confirm git symbolic-ref -q HEAD == refs/heads/main, (b) ls .git/index.lock absent (remove a STALE lock only if no live git process), (c) git fetch --all + confirm local == origin/main. Every R-5 commit survived via this protocol.
R-5 commits this session (all FF-pushed): 102c773 CM-NO-LOCAL-RUNTIME gate + paired meta-test · abc0912 Part-B NITs (bridge/format test asserts + bridgeOpener seam + detector XHTML anchor) · 7036a30 config.worker.json default_provider ollama→openai · 3ce413e §11.4.153 ledger 39 rows Obsolete + verifier-doc framing fix.
Prior phase-2 commits (P-1..R-4): 8325f9d R-4 remove worker configs + SSH/llama/ollama scripts · 86175d0/earlier R-4 remove SSH binaries + pkg/sshworker + pkg/modelsbridge + llamacpp_provider + markdown bridge wiring; P-1 BestClient e5307ce.

Bridge phase-2 — the CRITICAL no-local-runtime mandate (state: NEAR-COMPLETE)

Operator-CRITICAL: NO local runtime — only LLMsVerifier strongest models via pkg/bridge, bridged to components AND this Claude Code session. Plan: docs/design/BRIDGE_PHASE2_EXECUTION_PLAN.md (+ design docs/design/LLMSVERIFIER_BRIDGE.md, removal map docs/design/LOCAL_RUNTIME_REMOVAL.md).

LOCKED operator decisions: D1 remove local runtimes entirely; D2 forbid ALL local runtimes (llama.cpp + Ollama); R1 → R-4 decision (2026-06-16): keep the distributed/API path, remove SSH-local (the SSH-local binaries + worker body Obsolete §11.4.90; version_manager/ssh_pool/distributed coordination KEPT); R2 require API keys everywhere (no offline/local fallback — honest error/SKIP, never a silent local fallback); D4/D5 top-1 + fallback, in-process; ensemble = "Provider-diverse verified".

Status — DONE:

P-1 / R-1 BestClient/BestTranslator + all default-path components redirected to the bridge.
R-2 Ollama removed · R-3 llama.cpp removed · R-4 SSH-local binaries + pkg/sshworker + pkg/modelsbridge + local worker configs/scripts removed (operator-confirmed).
R-5 (this session): CM-NO-LOCAL-RUNTIME pre-build gate (3 arms, default-path-only) + paired §1.1 meta_test_no_local_runtime.sh (baseline PASS / Mut1 Arm1 FAIL / Mut2 Arm3 FAIL / Neg PASS); Part-B NITs; config.worker.json fixed; §11.4.153 ledger 39 rows Obsolete (docs_chain features re-synced HTML/PDF/DOCX); AGENTS.md + README.md + this CONTINUATION updated.
§11.4.40 FULL RETEST: PASS (authoritative main-checkout, HEAD f9c52a2; evidence docs/qa/bridge_phase2_retest_20260616/SUMMARY.md, commit d1bed61): sweep all-9-gates green · build clean · functional 55 pkgs OK · -race only pre-existing test/distributed (§11.4.7) · meta-tests all bite (incl. meta_test_no_local_runtime.sh) · determinism stable · product challenges pass. Two prior worktree-retest FAILs proven ENVIRONMENT artifacts (worktree missing submodules; worktree checkout mtime) — same gate PASSES on the real main checkout; NOT regressions.

PHASE-2 CLOSED + RELEASED. 🏷️ helix_translate-2.3.0 (operator "do tag now" 2026-06-16; safest zero-churn calls: version = current VERSION 2.3.0 no bump; set = main + 10 owned submodules, helix_qa excluded §11.4.119). Annotated tag created + pushed to ALL remotes across main (6b81a10) + containers/challenges/doc_processor/llm_orchestrator/llm_provider/vision_engine/llms_verifier/constitution/docs_chain/security (each at its gitlink-pinned commit), verified via ls-remote (main ^{}→6b81a10). OWED: helix_qa tag (off-limits to this session §11.4.119 — operator/its session to apply helix_translate-2.3.0).

Non-blocking follow-ups (not product defects): (a) host_no_auto_suspend challenge FAILs = HOST not hardened against auto-suspend — environment (§11.4.3), host power config NOT changed autonomously (CONST-033), operator action if desired; (b) internal/working/config.distributed.{json,test,thinker}.json legacy llamacpp/gguf tokens (KEPT distributed path) — future R-cycle if distributed worker API-migrated; (c) codebase_hash_report.json generator needs a submodule-exclusion before faithful refresh (not a gate dep); (d) format-detector XHTML-branch advisory (conservative, zero real-tree impact) — optional future hardening.

Standing constraints (binding every session)

No force-push EVER (§11.4.113 — merge-onto-latest-main, FF-only); never git add -A (§11.4.30); never touch the helix_qa submodule — another session owns it (§11.4.119 single-resource-owner); never touch owned submodules in this R-5 scope.
No host power-management (§12 / CONST-033). Require API keys, NO local llama.cpp/Ollama/SSH-distributed runtimes. Operator-blocked → AskUserQuestion (§11.4.66). Endless autonomous loop is the DEFAULT (§11.4.126).
Working API keys: DEEPSEEK_API_KEY + GROQ_API_KEY present (real translations work); GEMINI/ZHIPU invalid/quota-blocked (honest errors). NEVER print key values (§11.4.10).
Contested checkout: apply the pre-commit vigilance protocol above before every commit (§11.4.84/§11.4.119).

⛔ (SUPERSEDED 2026-06-15 ~22:30 — subagent runtime has since reset; reconciliation + P-1 landed) RATE-LIMIT BLOCK + OWED CRASHED-STREAM WORK (2026-06-15 ~19:05)

The subagent runtime hit a session/usage limit (subagents die instantly, ~178 tokens). NO new subagents can run until the 7:10pm Europe/Moscow reset. Two phase-1 bridge streams CRASHED mid-work (§11.4.147 crash≠done — work OWED, partial state PRESERVED uncommitted in the worktree, do NOT discard, do NOT commit-incomplete §11.4.84/§11.4.121):

LLMsVerifier-bridge mandate (operator CRITICAL 2026-06-15): no local llama.cpp — only LLMsVerifier strongest models + bridge to components AND this Claude Code session. Design: docs/design/LLMSVERIFIER_BRIDGE.md; removal map: docs/design/LOCAL_RUNTIME_REMOVAL.md. LOCKED operator decisions: D1 remove llama.cpp entirely; D2 forbid ALL local runtimes (llama.cpp + Ollama + SSH/distributed); D3 agent access = CLI + MCP; D4/D5 top-1 + fallback, in-process pipeline (env *_API_KEY keys, no service); R1 Obsolete cmd/translate-ssh + cmd/ssh-translation + llamacpp/ollama worker configs (§11.4.90); R2 require keys everywhere (no offline path — tests FAIL not skip when keys absent).

OWED CRASHED STREAMS (respawn after reset, §11.4.147 + §11.4.84 quiescence-check first):

bridge-core (was a9659f5) — INCOMPLETE, does NOT build: cmd/model-bridge/main.go:52: undefined: runMCP (crashed before writing the MCP stdio server). Preserved partial: pkg/bridge/ (BestTranslator/Invoke/BestModel/ListVerified facade), cmd/model-bridge/main.go (CLI), internal/verifier/provider_resolver.go+_test.go (numeric-ProviderID gap-fix). RESPAWN to: finish runMCP (MCP stdio server) + .mcp.json wiring + full tests + real best-model/invoke evidence + docs/guides/LLMSVERIFIER_BRIDGE_USAGE.md; then §11.4.142 review + commit.
web-UI (was aaf872a) — BUILDS clean (pkg/api + cmd/server). Preserved: pkg/api/dashboard.go+dashboard_test.go, pkg/api/handler.go (M) — wires the unrouted Web Dashboard translation UI (the real §11.4.153 web gap). OWED: independent §11.4.142 review + real-server real-translation evidence run, then commit. (Note: a later phase swaps its provider to bridge.BestTranslator.)

NEXT (post-reset, phased per LOCAL_RUNTIME_REMOVAL.md R-0→R-5): (1) respawn bridge-core to finish; (2) review+commit web-UI; (3) phase-2: redirect all 9 components to bridge.BestTranslator, remove Ollama, remove llama.cpp, Obsolete SSH/distributed (R1), add CM-NO-LOCAL-RUNTIME gate + paired mutation, require-keys-everywhere (R2); (4) HelixQA web-runner browser+video backend extension (needs the helix_qa session) → then the real web-dashboard video. Web-dashboard video remains PENDING until both the UI wiring lands AND HelixQA gains a web/video backend.

DONE + PUSHED this session (all remotes, FF-only): constitution §11.4.153 (74e7fbe, 10 remotes); parent 58178a5→a5e8866→86bf81e→d53e085→fb74c2d→87cd2be→e73e0b7→fb265e7; submodules llm_provider 724e284, containers 2a9923a, llms_verifier 89719e2b. §11.4.153 mandate + 470/472 ledger (21 video-confirmed) + DOCX & PDF output writers + multipass wiring + cli title/atomic-write fixes + prep-translator/server/REST bug fixes + README §11.4.57 + all 9 submodules GREEN.

✅ §11.4.153 LEDGER RE-SYNC (2026-06-15, +DOCX output + `-multipass` video + cli atomic-write)

Three capabilities became real+evidenced this session and landed+pushed; the feature ledger (docs/features/Status.md + Status_Summary.md) is re-synced honestly (docs UNCOMMITTED — conductor commits, no git add -A):

DOCX output — gap → Implemented (pure-Go OOXML writer pkg/ebook/docx_writer.go, commit 87cd2be). Verified this session by re-producing a .docx via the shipped writer → file = Microsoft Word 2007+, all 4 OOXML parts, real translated content, correct XML escaping. Real-artifact-confirmed (NOT video — no .mp4 yet, video PENDING).
-multipass multi-pass verification — now video-confirmed: helixtranslate-cli-multipass-verify-20260615.mp4 (ffprobe 888x630, 93 frames, 9.3s) shows "Step 4: Multi-pass Polishing ✅ Success — Polished over 1 pass with deepseek" + real Spanish output. Engine wired into unified-translator via -multipass in d53e085.
cmd/cli atomic-write / no-clobber (87cd2be) — write-safety fix, guard cmd/cli/no_partial_output_test.go (unit-proven, no video required); title path-leak fixed in d53e085.
Honest counts: video-confirmed 20 → 21 (the -multipass flip) + 1 real-artifact-confirmed (DOCX); Status/Status_Summary Rev 2→3; not-implemented gap rows 2→1.
Exports re-synced: docs_chain sync features (6 derived nodes) → docs_chain verify features = in-sync (RC=0); HTML+PDF+DOCX siblings regenerated for both docs (all file-verified).
Remaining gaps now: PDF output (no writer); cmd/translator local path STUB; llm_provider gofmt hygiene (23 flagged files); cosmetic docx title-twice; web-dashboard translation video OPERATOR-BLOCKED (HelixQA-gated). translate-ssh/ebook-translator stay OPERATOR-BLOCKED.

✅ GAP-CLOSURE BATCH (2026-06-15, video/coverage-surfaced gaps — all reviewed GO + pushed)

Three gap-closures (each RED-first §11.4.115, mutation-verified, independent batch review VERDICT GO §11.4.142) landed + pushed:

Parent d53e085 (pushed all remotes): (1) cmd/cli title path-leak FIXED — TXT parser set Metadata.Title=filepath → translated → leaked into output EPUB <dc:title>; sanitizeBookTitle() added at the cmd/cli input→book seam (genuine titles pass through; real run <dc:title>Tiha bašta</dc:title>, NO LEAK). (2) pkg/verification multipass engine WIRED (§11.4.124 — git-history proved it was NEVER imported by any cmd/, born dormant 717bf18, finished real code not scaffolding) via opt-in -multipass flag (default OFF, back-compat; guardrails: passes≥1, base preserved on error/empty); RED→GREEN httptest + real DeepSeek "Step 4: Multi-pass Polishing ✅"; §11.4.150 research docs/research/20260615_video_surfaced_fixes/verification_multipass_wiring.md.
llm_provider 724e284 (pushed LLMProvider remote; parent gitlink bumped in d53e085): contract test for the interface-only pkg/provider (zero-coverage §11.4.28 gap; mutation-proven; suite green).

NEXT (open gaps, tracked — none blocking the current scope): implement DOCX/PDF output writers in pkg/ebook (input-only today); implement cmd/translator local path (STUB "not yet implemented"); fix cmd/cli silent-fail-exit-0 when -model omitted (incidental finding); record a -multipass video for §11.4.153 ledger confirmation (currently real-run+RED→GREEN evidenced, no .mp4 yet); gofmt the 23 pre-existing flagged files in llm_provider; web-dashboard translation video is OPERATOR-BLOCKED (HelixQA-gated, separate session). translate-ssh/ebook-translator stay OPERATOR-BLOCKED (need remote SSH/llama.cpp host).

🎬 §11.4.153 FEATURE-STATUS VIDEO-CONFIRMATION SYNC (2026-06-15, ~25 real videos → ledger honest)

The §11.4.153 per-feature Status ledger is now in honest sync with the real video evidence captured this session (docs uncommitted — conductor to commit; do NOT git add -A).

What landed before this sync (already pushed):

§11.4.153 doc set (docs/features/Status.md + Status_Summary.md, 470/472 features, four-format HTML+PDF+DOCX) shipped in 58178a5; constitution bump 74e7fbe.
3 video-surfaced bugs FIXED + pushed in a5e8866 (the green suite had missed all 3, §11.4.4/§11.4.138): (1) preparation-translator DEAD — DeepSeek API key never reached config (-api-key/env not wired) → "DeepSeek API key is required", no analysis JSON; (2) cmd/server TLS startup — config with no tls_cert_file failed to start; fix backfills self-signed certs in LoadConfig; (3) REST POST /api/v1/translate ignored target_lang (hardcoded) → always Serbian regardless of requested language.
~25 real videos captured under /Volumes/T7/Downloads/Recordings/helixtranslate-*.mp4 (all ffprobe-verified dur>0+frames>0; key ones content-verified frame-by-frame this session).
All 9 owned submodules GREEN — coverage logs qa-results/submodule_coverage_20260615/.
README §11.4.57 Tracked-Items doc-link section added (prior session).

This sync (Status.md/Status_Summary.md Rev 1→2 + exports re-synced):

Video-confirmed: 1 → 20 feature rows (≈4.3% of 472), each flipped to Confirmed: ONLY after the cited .mp4 was content-verified (§11.4.6 no overclaim). Confirmed: unified-translator (DeepSeek translate; EPUB→TXT / HTML→EPUB / FB2→EPUB / FB2→FB2; Serbian-Cyrillic; -script Cyrillic↔Latin; format-detection; help/version; -verify), REST API (POST /api/v1/translate real DeepSeek + target_lang FIXED, TLS startup FIXED, /health·/version·/providers), gRPC (real EN→ES), markdown-translator (EPUB↔MD round-trip), preparation-translator (FIXED), cmd/cli (real DeepSeek), monitor-server (live WS hub), DeepSeek library client.
Honest gaps recorded (§11.4.6, NOT confirmed): DOCX output + PDF output UNIMPLEMENTED (no writer in pkg/ebook; unified-translator rejects them; 2 new gap rows added → 472 total); -verify ≠ pkg/verification multipass engine (engine has no CLI entry point wired in); cmd/translator local path = STUB ("local translation not yet implemented"); cmd/translate-ssh + cmd/ebook-translator = OPERATOR-BLOCKED (need remote SSH/llama.cpp worker host); GET /api/v1/verified-models = 404 (LLMsVerifier disabled in config); cmd/cli minor cosmetic file-path-leak into title metadata.
Exports + fingerprint re-synced via docs_chain sync features (applied: 6 derived nodes — HTML/PDF/DOCX × 2 docs) → docs_chain verify features = in-sync (RC=0); evidence qa-results/docs_chain/20260615T144104Z/sync.log; docs_chain state.json = §11.4.86 content-hash fingerprint store.

NEXT (open gaps queued): implement DOCX/PDF output writers in pkg/ebook; wire pkg/verification multipass engine into a CLI entry point; implement cmd/translator local path; produce videos for remaining PENDING runtime features (web dashboard translation, other providers) to lift coverage. translate-ssh/ebook-translator stay OPERATOR-BLOCKED until a remote SSH/llama.cpp host is provided.

🔬 WAVE 15 — SECOND-PASS + determinism (campaign 101→110; second pass STILL productive)

Parent HEAD 6c89910, build/vet/test green, git OK, llms_verifier pointer intact.

pkg/ebook 6c11dee (#102): EPUB parser set chapter.Title to the zip entry name → EPUB→translate→EPUB rendered "OEBPS/chapter1.xhtml" as every chapter heading + TOC entry (core use case). Fix = extractChapterTitle (<title>/
). RED+mutation-proven.
pkg/translator/llm 4413b76 (#103,#104): gemini + llamacpp ignored -temperature/-max-tokens (gemini silently capped output at 4000 tokens). Fix = standard Options>typed>default precedence. RED+mutation-proven.
llms_verifier cd908195 (gitlink 6c89910, #105–#110): 6 §11.4.50 determinism defects — 4 ID-collision PRODUCT bugs (security/scheduler×2/logging UnixNano-only → duplicate audit/run/log IDs; crypto/rand suffix) + 2 flaky tests (scoring recency-date drift, client brotli live-endpoint coupling). Mutation-proven; 5 pkgs deterministic -count=3..30; FF-pushed all LLMsVerifier remotes. SECOND-PASS LESSON (§11.4.118): re-hunting "already-swept" surfaces with fresh angles STILL found 9 genuine bugs — fresh angles find what the first pass missed. KNOWN follow-up (§11.4.118, flagged NOT fixed): ~12 other UnixNano-only ID generators in llms_verifier (api/audit_logger, events/websocket_server, notifications, scoring/alert_manager+api_handlers, enhanced/*) have NO uniqueness test — latent collision risk.

🏁 COMPREHENSIVE BUG-HUNT COMPLETE — 101 fixes + 1 guard; main module + ALL 8 owned submodules swept

Wave 14 (challenges + llms_verifier) closed the submodule sweep. Parent HEAD c47989a, git OK, llms_verifier pointer intact.

challenges 349b0f1 (gitlink a449d13, #100): bank ValidateFile JSON-only rejected YAML banks + skipped test_cases validation — a bluff in the anti-bluff framework. RED+mutation-proven; §11.4.113 rebased over a parallel session; FF-pushed all Challenges remotes.
llms_verifier 1e0de43c (gitlink c47989a, #101): the verification GATE (CONST-036) certified code-BLIND models as Status=verified → IsModelVerified passed them. Fix keys off CodeVisibility. RED + §11.4.120 reconciliation of the bluff-enshrining test + mutation-proven; verification pkg -race green; FF-pushed all LLMsVerifier remotes. Submodule yield 8/8 (doc_processor, llm_orchestrator, docs_chain, containers, security, vision_engine, challenges, llms_verifier) — every owned submodule had a genuine fix. KNOWN follow-up (honest disclosure §11.4.118, NOT yet fixed): llms_verifier has PRE-EXISTING flaky/time-dependent tests in scoring (recency-date drift), security (timestamp uniqueness), client (brotli env) — independent of #101, don't import verification — a §11.4.50 determinism cleanup for a follow-up.

🔬 SUBMODULE WAVE 13 (security, vision_engine) — campaign 97→99, submodule yield 6/6

security 3782c27 (gitlink fb7cc11, HIGH): securestorage read-path RLock while helpers mutate the in-memory AES key + cache → concurrent readers corrupt the secret key. Fix = RLock→Lock + lock the unlocked IsSecure. RED+mutation-proven; 18 pkgs -race green; FF-pushed all Security remotes. (SSRF/e2ee/AES-GCM audited hardened.)
vision_engine e40e6f9 (gitlink 799121e): Gemini response returned only Parts[0].Text → multi-part analyses silently truncated. Fix = concatenate all parts + empty guard. RED+mutation-proven; 8 pkgs -race green; FF-pushed all VisionEngine remotes. Owned submodules hunted 6/6 ALL with genuine fixes: doc_processor, llm_orchestrator, docs_chain, containers, security, vision_engine. Remaining: challenges, llms_verifier (in flight wave 14).

🔬 POST-VALIDATION BUG-HUNT WAVES (2026-06-15, 32 parallel subagents over 12 waves, all verified+pushed)

After the green validation run, dispatched 12 worktree-isolated subagent waves (3-wide, later 2-wide for FD safety) sweeping the ENTIRE main-module Go surface + the owned submodules (§11.4.28). 34 genuine, conductor-verified, independently mutation-proven fixes (campaign 63→97) + 1 teeth-proven regression guard; honest clean non-findings + documented honest gaps (§11.4.118/§11.4.6). Parent HEAD d7db22f, build/vet/test green. SUBMODULE YIELD 4/4 (each fix committed into its OWN repo FF-only §11.4.113 + gitlink synced + parent pushed; 2 needed §11.4.113 rebase-onto-latest over parallel sessions). NOTE: host FD pressure (ENFILE) under 3 concurrent -race agents — waves 9+ at 2-wide (§12).

WAVE 12 — submodules:

docs_chain 0c72cdd (gitlink a57ebd9): canonicalDumpAllTables content-hash collision (unescaped TAB/NL → distinct DB states share a hash → verify false-in-sync / sync misses change) in the §11.4.106 engine. Fix = escapeDumpField injective escaping. RED+mutation-proven; 8 pkgs -race green; FF-pushed vasic-digital/docs_chain.
containers a5269f3 (gitlink d7db22f): LazyBooter.err plain-field data race (torn/stale boot-error read + -race crash). Fix = atomic.Pointer[error]. RED+mutation-proven; 38-pkg suite green; §11.4.113 rebased over a parallel health/custom fix + FF-pushed all 7 Containers remotes.

WAVE 11 — OWNED SUBMODULES (§11.4.28 equal-codebase; init-only, no rm/symlink; committed into each submodule's OWN repo FF-only §11.4.113 + gitlink synced; 2/2 found real bugs):

doc_processor de1d023 (gitlink 4057d31): fenced-code-block # line parsed as a heading → phantom section + content truncation. Fix = codeFenceRanges + filterHeadingsOutsideCodeFences. RED+mutation-proven; 10 pkgs -race green; pushed FF to DocProcessor.
llm_orchestrator a446a3d (gitlink 5778aec): PipeTransport.Receive lost/mis-ordered a message on ctx-cancel (throwaway goroutine read+discarded) + pt.closed race. Fix = persistent in-order reader + sticky termErr. RED(RED_MODE)+mutation-proven; 9 pkgs -race green. §11.4.113 INTEGRATED onto latest master (rebased over a parallel-session opencode WaitDelay fix, disjoint, both coexist) then FF-pushed all LLMOrchestrator remotes.

SECURITY-REVIEW REMEDIATION (f6815b4): automated review flagged the wave-10 deployment fix — generate-plan emitted hardcoded JWT secrets (main-secret / worker--secret = known signing keys → auth bypass). Fixed: generateJWTSecret() via crypto/rand for Main + workers (placeholder on rand failure). RED+mutation-proven; 2 pre-existing tests §11.4.120-reconciled to the secure behavior.

MAIN-MODULE SURFACE NOW FULLY SWEPT (10 waves): storage, ebook(all formats incl FB2), distributed, verification, preparation, batch, security, events, websocket, coordination, grpc, markdown, format, report, progress, translator-core, api, all 6 CLIs, monitor-server, internal/verifier+services+config, hardware, version, logger, deployment, cmd/server, cmd/api-server, cmd/grpc-server, cmd/translate-ssh, cmd/deployment. Remaining un-hunted = root demo-*.go scripts (NOT source-of-truth) + the 9 owned submodules (had a dedicated pass in the prior 2026-06-14v session; higher git-corruption risk via worktrees). Dominant finding class = error-swallowing PASS-bluffs at every entry point (batch/grpc/ api-server/server/deployment/translate-ssh all reported success while the op failed).

WAVE 10 (cmd/translate-ssh, cmd/grpc-server+cmd/deployment):

translate-ssh final-report false-negative (78c7b45): printFinalReport filepath.Join(inputDir, absolutePath) doubled paths → real artifacts shown not-found, contradicting the success summary. Fix = expectedReportFiles helper. RED+mutation-proven.
deployment generate-plan undeployable (a7cdce4): emitted plan had nil Main → the tool s own deploy action rejects it + nil-derefs. Fix = generateMainConfig. RED+mutation-proven. (cmd/grpc-server clean.)

WAVE 9 (cmd/server, cmd/api-server — completeness-confirmation; STILL found 3 real bugs):

server TLS private-key world-readable (3bc1ede, HIGH §11.4.10): certs/server.key written 0644 via os.Create → any local user could read it. Fix = 0600 + dir 0700. RED+mutation-proven.
api-server cancelTranslation PASS-bluff (c5ce9ae): backend success=false forwarded as REST 200 success:true. Fix = check resp.GetSuccess()→502. RED+mutation-proven.
api-server startTranslation PASS-bluff (c5ce9ae): backend status=error forwarded as REST 200 success:true. Fix = check resp.GetStatus()==error→502. RED+mutation-proven.
HONEST follow-ups flagged NOT fixed (§11.4.6/§11.4.124, MEDIUM, operator-decision): api-server + grpc req.Options untyped map silently discarded (needs a JSON-key→proto-field mapping decision); HTTP/3 ALPN-config sharing needs an integration harness to reproduce.

WAVE 8 (internal/config+CORS, pkg/hardware+version, pkg/logger+deployment):

deployment Docker-health PASS-bluff (3a2a516): checkServicesHealth used substring match — 'healthy' is a substring of 'unhealthy', so an unhealthy service was counted healthy → deploy reported success while broken. Fix = JSON-parse compose-ps, all-services-healthy. RED+mutation-proven.
deployment GetDiscoveredServices race (3a2a516): delete() under RLock → concurrent map write. Fix = RLock→Lock. RED -race+mutation-proven.
version cross-OS hash instability (396f70a): CodebaseHasher recorded raw OS-separator paths → same tree hashes differently per-OS → false distributed-worker version drift. Fix = canonicalize separators. RED+mutation-proven.
hardware Windows multi-socket core undercount (396f70a): per-socket NumberOfCores lines errored the single-int parser → silent fallback to logical cores. Fix = parseWindowsCoreCount sums sockets. RED+mutation-proven.
internal/config+CORS clean non-finding: CORS already hardened (wildcard sans credentials, exact-match allowlist, 5 bypass vectors rejected, fail-closed defaults).

WAVE 7 (internal/verifier, internal/services+verified-models, cmd/monitor-server):

services MinScoreThreshold scale divergence (55ca2c9): GetPreferences compared the threshold on a 0-10 normalized scale while the /verified-models handler + registry/selection use raw 0-100 → an operator threshold of 50 silently dropped ALL preferences. Fix = raw-scale compare. RED + §11.4.120 stale-test reconciliation; mutation→both tests FAIL→restore→GREEN.
verifier bare-array catalog false-not-found (4b93d3b): checkModelExistence double-read a consumed resp.Body → providers returning a bare [{id}] /models had every model reported 'not found' + blocked from verification. Fix = buffer body once, unmarshal both forms. RED+mutation-proven.
monitor-server MONITOR_SERVER_PORT ignored (4cbefed): port hardcoded 8090 despite the env var documented in 5 places. Fix = resolvePort with validation. RED+mutation-proven.

⚠️ ENV FORENSIC + REPAIR (§11.4.6/§9, 2026-06-15): the worktree+submodule interaction during the parallel campaign corrupted the main-tree llms_verifier/.git pointer — it got rewritten to a DELETED worktree gitdir (.git/worktrees/agent-a4196278.../modules/llms_verifier), making git status + go build ./... VCS-stamping fail with exit status 128. Product was unaffected (Go uses the replace ./llms_verifier/llm-verifier FILES not git → tests stayed 59 ok; commits/pushes worked). Root-caused exactly: the intact gitdir is .git/modules/LLMsVerifier (capitalized); only the working-tree .git pointer was wrong. REPAIRED reversibly (no network, no data loss, §9 backup to /tmp): repointed llms_verifier/.git → gitdir: ../.git/modules/LLMsVerifier; submodule now resolves at pinned 6f19503b (§11.4.79), nested llm-verifier intact, build+vet+status clean. The .git pointer is untracked (local-env only, nothing to commit). PROCESS NOTE for future waves: a worktree subagent running git submodule update --init llms_verifier inside its worktree + the subsequent git worktree remove is the suspected trigger; verify git status after each worktree-wave cleanup.

WAVE 6 (gRPC EPUB-input, markdown block-marker, secondary CLIs) — both confirmed leads fixed + a security finding; required 2 conductor MERGES (subagent worktrees predated #76/#77, blind copy would have reverted them — caught per §11.4.84/§11.4.142):

gRPC EPUB inputs unusable (1377bd6): convertToMarkdown wrote ExtractText to a .epub temp + re-parsed as zip (always failed). Fix = convert the REAL input file path. RED+mutation-proven; merged on top of #77.
markdown block-marker round-trip (a7140f9): prose  starting 1. /- /> /# → list/heading/blockquote, digit lost. Fix = escapeLeadingBlockMarker. RED 7 cases+mutation; merged on top of #76.
cmd/cli cross-provider key leak (2d65ee0, §11.4.10 security): config provider-switch sent OPENAI_API_KEY as bearer to the deepseek endpoint. Fix = drop stale pre-loaded key on provider switch unless -api-key explicit. RED+mutation-proven.

WAVE 5 (pkg/grpc+cmd/grpc-server, pkg/markdown reverse, pkg/format+pkg/report+pkg/progress):

grpc nil-Options crash (d7ec633, HIGH): req.Options deref panicked the translation goroutine AFTER the EPUB was written → session stuck 'running', completed work never reported. Fix = nil-safe GetOptions().GetEnableMonitoring(). RED; mutation→nil-pointer panic→restore→GREEN (3/3 -race).
markdown EPUB→MD round-trip corruption (0ba2f48): prose text emitted unescaped → literal _/*/[] reinterpreted as emphasis/links on return trip. Fix = escapeMarkdownText (inCode-gated). RED 5 tests; mutation no-op→3 corruption FAILs→restore→GREEN; full suite no-regression.
progress stuck bar (cebf4f7): items-only mode never counted failed items → 60% forever. Fix = ItemsCompleted+ItemsFailed. RED; mutation→'got 60.00'→restore→GREEN. (format+report clean.)

WAVE 4 (pkg/api+cmd/api-server+cmd/server, pkg/translator core, primary CLIs) — driven by §11.4.118 discovery-pressure on the batch PASS-bluff class:

translator ctx-cancel silent success (ba1ee96): TranslateBook never checked ctx.Err() → a cancelled (timeout/Ctrl-C) run reported success with a partial/no-op book. Fix = up-front + per-chapter ctx guards wrapping context.Canceled. RED; mutation strip-both-guards→"got nil (silent partial-result)"→restore→GREEN.
api Server.Stop no-op (85d9849): Start() made a LOCAL http.Server, Stop() held no ref and return nil → claimed graceful shutdown while listener stayed open + Start hung forever. Fix = mutex-guarded httpServer + Shutdown(ctx). RED lifecycle test; mutation revert→"Start did not return after Stop"→restore→GREEN.
preparation-translator lang-flags ignored (4b9c1e4): -source/-target hardcoded to ru/sr codes → wrong translation direction + wrong language tag for any other pair. Fix = resolveLanguageCodes via language.ParseLanguage. RED; logic-mutation→"English=ru, want en"→restore→GREEN.
HONEST GAPS documented, NOT fake-fixed (§11.4.6 — for operator): cmd/api-server getMetrics + pkg/api getStatus/statsHandler return hardcoded 0 / "completed" because NO session/translation state store exists at that layer — wiring real values requires building a metrics/session-tracking FEATURE (operator-gated), not a bug fix. WebSocket CheckOrigin: return true is the known dev default (no demonstrable bypass). pkg/api batchHandler 202-queued has no backing queue (incomplete async feature, not a false-completion).

WAVE 3 (pkg/security, pkg/events+pkg/websocket, pkg/batch+pkg/coordination):

batch processFile PASS-bluff (5baf804, HIGHEST severity): processFile parsed→wrote WITHOUT invoking the translator yet returned Success:true — every file/directory batch incl. the /translate/directory API shipped an UNTRANSLATED copy as 'translation completed' (§11.4/CONST-035). Fix = translate book in place (recursive title+Section Title+Content+Subsections, ctx-honoring) when Translator!=nil. RED; mutation neutralize→"translator never invoked: untranslated copy reported as success"→restore→GREEN.
pkg/security clean non-finding: JWT alg-confusion/none/expired/nbf all rejected, refresh re-validates liveness, rate-limiter per-key race-clean, API-key store RWMutex-guarded, login timing defends CWE-208+CWE-204. HS512-when-HS256 candidate correctly rejected (forging still needs the secret — not a vuln).
pkg/events+pkg/websocket clean non-finding + teeth-proven guard (46db0c6): both hardened (lock-released-before-fan-out, delete-before-close, session-filter, batched-drain). Added combined-concurrency regression guard hub_combined_stress_test.go; teeth proven (weaken unregister lock→DATA RACE caught→restore→GREEN).

WAVE 2 (pkg/script, pkg/verification, pkg/preparation):

verification content-wipe (39ae131, HIGH severity): a failed provider's zero-value llmVerification{} (empty PolishedText) fed buildConsensus → could win consensus and WIPE the section's translated content to "", plus diluted scores (0.9→0.300 with 2/3 failing). Fix = drop empty-Provider phantom entries before aggregation. RED; mutation disable-filter→"CONTENT CORRUPTION got ''"+"SCORE DILUTION 0.300"→restore→GREEN.
preparation title data loss (a8cf0cd): writeSectionContent wrote section.Content but never section.Title, yet the translator translates titles → names/terms in titles never reached the prep LLM. Fix = write Title before content. RED; mutation→"dropped section title"→restore→GREEN.
pkg/script clean non-finding: 30-letter table, 3 digraphs, all-caps engine, round-trip identity, DetectScript all audited correct; only candidates were already-pinned ambiguous/lossy cases (§11.4.6 — not bugs).

WAVE 1 (pkg/ebook-FB2, pkg/storage, pkg/distributed):

FB2 parser data loss (a22d0de): section-level <subtitle>/<epigraph>/<poem>/<cite> silently dropped before translation+output; multi-line section <title> truncated to first line. Fix = recursive flatten + join all title lines. RED through real FB2Parser.Parse; mutation revert→"verse line not found"/"title not found"→restore→GREEN.
storage CreateSession data loss (9ff5049, both sqlite+postgres): INSERT omitted end_time+error_message → already-completed sessions persisted NULL → GetStatistics.AverageDuration reported 0 over zero rows. Fix = add columns to INSERT. RED + postgres integration guard; mutation→"EndTime lost"→restore→GREEN.
distributed AlertManager ×2 (0366941): (1) SendAlert held am.mu across blocking channel SMTP/webhook I/O (~30s) stalling all AlertManager methods → snapshot-then-unlock; (2) GetAlertHistory/GetAlerts leaked shared *DriftAlert pointers → -race-proven field race vs AcknowledgeAlert → copyDriftAlert deep-copy. No protocol/message-shape change (worker version-compat held). RED -race; mutation revert→DATA RACE / "GetAlertHistory blocked"→restore→GREEN. Clean non-findings (audited, no RED reproducible): SQLite concurrent-writer contention (GREEN under -race), cache-key collisions (already hardened), CheckWorkerVersion race, CircuitBreaker breaker-serialization, HTML/DOCX/TXT/PDF round-trips. All 3 worktrees removed post-integration. HEAD 0366941 green+pushed both upstreams.

✅ FULL VALIDATION RUN (2026-06-15, operator-requested "run all tests, challenges, helix qa")

360 packages GREEN, ZERO failures project-wide (real captured evidence, no bluff):

Main module: 59 ok / 0 FAIL (go test ./... -p 1, clean baseline).
§11.4.27 additional test types (build-tagged) — ALL GREEN after 2 fixes: integration 1/0, e2e PASS, security PASS, stress 1/0, performance 10 benchmarks/0 FAIL (go test -tags=<type> ./test/<type>/... -p 1). Two test-layer §11.4.1 FAIL-bluffs found by running them + FIXED (mutation-proven, b3381237): (a) test/security TestAPIKeys_NoHardcodedKeys flagged a submodule MOCK fixture sk-mock-key-1 → scan now skips tests/testdata/mocks/fixtures/test dirs + mock/fake/example/dummy/placeholder lines; mutation-proven a real sk- in PRODUCTION internal/config/*.go is STILL caught. (b) test/e2e TestCLIBypassIssue/APIReturnsValidEPUB parsed a stale gitignored 29-byte placeholder → now generates a real EPUB in-test via EPUBWriter→t.TempDir()→parse-back (directly verifies a valid parseable EPUB, the test's actual intent).
9 Go submodules: 176 ok / 0 FAIL (challenges 18, containers 38, doc_processor 10, docs_chain 8, llm_orchestrator 9, llm_provider 52, llms_verifier 15, security 18, vision_engine 8; constitution = non-Go).
HelixQA tool (digital.vasic.helixqa): 125 ok / 0 FAIL (own core suite; build clean).
Challenge suite: all PASS or honest §11.4.3 SKIP — cache_invalidation, degraded_mode, model_verification_gate, helixqa_wiring, provider_sync, anti_bluff_execution, api_key_provisioning, no_suspend_calls PASS; llmsverifier_connectivity PASS (runtime SKIP, no API key); host_no_auto_suspend N/A on macOS (Linux /etc/systemd/ host check).
3 real challenge issues found by running them + FIXED (mutation-proven, committed): (1) no_suspend_calls §11.4.1 FAIL-bluff on doc .html/.pdf exports + Constitution.md case-miss + CHALLENGE.md test-inputs + qa-results/ logs → scanner excludes added, real .sh/.go calls still caught (a24f806); (2) anti_bluff_execution scanned wrong dir (0 vs 11 real challenges) → fixed to its own dir (d1667dc); (3) ./.env was mode 644 → chmod 600 per §11.4.10 (untracked/gitignored, perms-only).
Full autonomous HelixQA QA session DEFERRED (§11.4.3 topology-SKIP): needs the live HelixTranslate stack as a target (servers + DB/Redis via the §11.4.76 Containers submodule), not up; helix_qa is another session's active area (§11.4.119). Not launched unattended (zero-risk).

⭐ OVERNIGHT FINAL STATE (2026-06-15, operator away) — READ FIRST

The build is at its best, most-stable, verified-green, fully-pushed state.

Main HEAD fc86064 on BOTH upstreams (origin milos85vasic/Translator + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate). go build ./... = exit 0, go vet ./... = exit 0, go test ./... -p 1 = zero FAIL (full quiescent sweep).
110 genuine, reproduce-first, mutation-proven bug fixes this session across the whole main module + ALL 8 owned submodules + a productive second pass (full table below; latest 15 waves = 47 fixes + 1 regression guard, newest 6c11dee ebook + 4413b76 translator/llm + cd908195 llms_verifier-determinism; submodule yield 8/8, see WAVE 15 + COMPREHENSIVE BUG-HUNT COMPLETE blocks at top; highest-severity = batch processFile + verification content-wipe + grpc nil-Options + cli cross-provider key-leak + deployment Docker-health + server TLS-key leak + api-server backend-error PASS-bluffs + deployment hardcoded-JWT-secret). Each RED-on-broken → fix → GREEN → mutation-proven, conductor-verified, committed + pushed; submodule gitlink pointers all synced. (Latest: a systemic EOF-last-chunk streamed-content data-loss across 14 llm_provider adapters + ollama error-body, 0f21fb0 — merged cleanly with a parallel session's HealthCheck-baseURL fixes.)
Whole codebase hunted — every main pkg/* + cmd/* user-facing CLI + 9 submodules. Recent waves return clean non-findings (§11.4.118 completeness on the high-yield surface).
Nothing half-done: zero uncommitted source/test work anywhere; working tree holds only pre-existing build-artifact binaries (§11.4.30, not committed) + helix_qa other-session state (§11.4.119).

Autonomous decisions made (zero-risk, §11.4.101): (1) NO release tag cut — a tag asserts a fully-validated release but the §11.4.40 7-step (on-device/Challenge/HelixQA) cannot be completed solo; tagging would be a §11.4 bluff + outward-facing/irreversible. Deferred to the operator. (2) Tracked rebuilt binaries + untracked compiled binaries left uncommitted (§11.4.30). (3) §11.4.147 stale sibling clone /Volumes/T7/Projects/llm_orchestrator left untouched (its fix is already in the real submodule; discarding another clone unattended = avoidable risk).

To resume (morning): git fetch --all; read this file + docs/WORKING_PLAN.md rev 2. Next-highest-value = the release path (decide version P1.0 → full §11.4.40 retest → helix_translate-2.3.0 tag). Operator-gated remainder: provider keys (P1.1/P1.2), design calls (P2.x). Low-yield autonomous remainder: thin cmd/* server wrappers, deeper submodule passes, governance completeness (P4.1 migrate the 48 fixes into Fixed.md/workable_items.db, P4.4 .gitignore root binaries).

Session 2026-06-14v — cross-submodule bug-hunt campaign (§11.4.28 equal-codebase)

Parallel subagent-driven (§11.4.70/§11.4.103) hunt across owned submodules — each bug reproduce-first RED (§11.4.115) → fix → GREEN → mutation-proven (revert→FAIL/race→restore→PASS), verified by the conductor against repo state before commit (§11.4.142), committed in each submodule's own repo (raw git, FF-only, no force §11.4.113, multi-mirror §2.1). 18 genuine mutation-proven bugs fixed + pushed; vision_engine's was independently fixed upstream by a parallel session (64b7d08) so it was integrated, NOT double-fixed. Host API rate-limit (prior session's 6-subagent killer) had recovered — proven by a probe wave that all survived.

MAIN cmd/unified-translator	auto output filename hardcoded `_sr.epub` ignoring -target-lang → a French/German/… translation silently labelled Serbian (output + session-report filenames); honors targetLang + §11.4.120 reconcile	(wave 15)
MAIN pkg/version	codebase hasher used strings.Contains for excludes → over-excluded `vendored/`/`prod.env.json` + dead globs (`*.log` never matched) → corrupted the distributed worker version-sync hash (false match/spurious resync); proper component + glob match	fc86064
llm_provider (15 bugs)	systemic EOF-last-chunk streamed-content data loss across 14 adapters (openai/groq/together/fireworks/generic/deepseek/xai/perplexity/cohere/mistral/qwen/nvidia/sambanova/cerebras — final SSE delta + stop frame dropped when last chunk has no trailing newline) + ollama success-on-HTTP-error-body + W1A empty-choices guards; merged with a parallel session's HealthCheck fixes	0f21fb0

Flagged not-hermetically-testable (honest §11.4.6, NOT fabricated): pkg/sshworker UploadFile/DownloadFile/UploadData build unquoted shell commands (mkdir -p %s, cat %s, > %s) — a remote path with spaces/metacharacters breaks/injects; no executor seam to test hermetically (dials real *ssh.Client). Worth a command-runner-interface refactor → P-list. Also ExecuteCommand hardcodes ExitCode:1 (loses *ssh.ExitError fidelity) — same live-SSH-only constraint.

More clean non-findings (§11.4.6): pkg/format + pkg/hardware (detection correct; 2 Windows-only leads UNCONFIRMED-flagged, not fabricated), pkg/report (snapshot+clamp+locks correct). Hunt has reached the well-hardened core — consecutive clean non-findings across format/hardware/report/translator/events/websocket/script signal §11.4.118 completeness for the rule-based + already-hardened packages.

Clean non-findings (§11.4.6, mutation-verified the existing guards are real): pkg/translator root (data-loss guard genuine), pkg/events+pkg/websocket (concurrency already hardened), pkg/script (rule-based scope correct). Hunted main packages now broad: distributed, verifier, ebook/fb2, storage, security, verification, markdown, coordination, translator, events, websocket, script + 8 submodules.

Inline non-finding (§11.4.6): pkg/script (Serbian Cyrillic↔Latin) audited — conversion correct for its rule-based scope (all 30 letters both directions, uppercase-digraph all-caps logic sound, rune-iterated); the loanword nj/dž disambiguation (e.g. injekcija→инјекција) is an inherent rule-based-transliteration limitation needing an exception dictionary, NOT a narrow bug — no fix manufactured.

Main-repo + submodule-pointer sync (operator directive 2026-06-14): main repo committed the 4 pkg/distributed concurrency fixes (above) + advanced the 8 submodule gitlink pointers (challenges/containers/doc_processor/docs_chain/llm_orchestrator/llm_provider/llms_verifier/vision_engine) to their pushed HEADs so parent ↔ submodules are in sync. NOT staged: helix_qa (m, another session's in-flight work, §11.4.119); tracked rebuilt binaries preparation-translator/translate-ssh/unified-translator + untracked hash/workable-items (build artifacts, §11.4.30 — never committed).

Anti-bluff non-findings (honest, §11.4.6 — did NOT manufacture fixes): llm_provider generic.go empty-choices→empty-content is by-design tested contract; numerous adapters/packages audited clean with enumerated coverage; vision_engine gocv-build bug already fixed upstream.

§11.4.147 NOTE (operator awareness): a SEPARATE sibling clone exists at /Volumes/T7/Projects/llm_orchestrator (outside the parent tree). A subagent accidentally wrote the first RoundRobinSelector fix THERE; I left it untouched (unknown provenance) and re-applied the fix correctly inside the submodule (committed 4e08b93). That sibling now holds a stale, superseded, uncommitted change — safe to discard, but flagged so it isn't mistaken for live work.

Session 2026-06-14u — wave 14: governance depth + coverage + e2e build-fix (HEAD 84f7a46)

22a32e3 §11.4.93 SQLite SSoT extended: sync db-to-md (byte-stable summary round-trip), item_history table + record-event, diff. (Full per-item-prose body round-trip honestly noted as not-yet-in-schema.)
c049907 pre-build gates +2 → 8-gate suite, all green (CM-DOC-SIBLING-SYNC §11.4.65 + CM-NO-FORCE-PUSH-ABSOLUTE §11.4.113), all 8 paired mutations pass; caught a real gate-regex bug pre-commit.
fef82cc real e2e pipeline coverage: test/integration/pipeline_roundtrip_test.go (FB2/TXT × EPUB/FB2 + httptest-provider HTTP path), asserts actual output-artifact content, empty-stub mutation-proven.
84f7a46 fixed a pre-existing §11.4.1 build break: test/e2e package didn't compile (unused discovery import) — removed; go vet -tags e2e ./test/e2e/ now clean.

FINAL sweep GREEN at HEAD 84f7a46 (quiescent): go test ./... -p 1 = 58 ok / 0 FAIL; 8-gate pre-build suite PASS; build+vet clean; all FF-pushed both upstreams (no force §11.4.113).

NEW tracked gap (for follow-on): scripts/commit_all.sh does NOT auto-invoke sync_all_markdown_exports.sh, so doc commits leave stale .html/.pdf siblings (CM-DOC-SIBLING-SYNC catches them post-hoc; the gate agent had to regen CONTINUATION siblings manually). Follow-on: wire the export-sync into commit_all.sh (§11.4.75 layer-2). Until then, regen siblings when committing a doc.

SESSION FINAL STATE (unchanged from Rev 43 + wave 14) — autonomous queue DRAINED

Loop correctly rests on operator decisions. Remaining items (all operator-gated or larger multi-session follow-ons) tracked in docs/WORKING_PLAN.md + docs/Issues.md ATM-065..081: version number · pkg/hash remove-vs-relocate · provider keys/balance → allowlist audits · design calls · fuller §11.4.93 body round-trip · commit_all export-sync wiring · owned-submodule waves (another session active on helix_qa) · full §11.4.27 test-type matrix · full §11.4.40 retest → §11.4.151 release tag.

Session 2026-06-14t — plan-execution wave 13; autonomous queue DRAINED (HEAD 6444e38)

Wave 13 closed the last clean autonomous WORKING_PLAN items (3 background subagents, disjoint, all real + proven):

e623ffb §11.4.93 workable-items SQLite SSoT: cmd/workable-items Go tool (sync md-to-db/validate/list) + tracked docs/workable_items.db (§11.4.95). Real run: 81 items (64 fixed + 17 open), validate exit 0, verified via sqlite3 SELECT; mutation-proven. (Fuller schema — item_history/obsolete_details/db-to-md/fingerprint — is a tracked follow-on.)
78023a7 P4.2 +2 gates: CM-TRACKER-DOCS-PRESENT + CM-ATM-TICKET-IDS → pre-build suite now 6 gates, all green, each paired-mutation-proven.
6444e38 P4.3/ATM-076 §11.4.65 doc-export: scripts/testing/sync_all_markdown_exports.sh (pandoc html + weasyprint pdf, idempotent, --check gate mode, §11.4.106 honest tool-absence) + 225 siblings generated (0 failures, 0 stale) for 120 in-scope docs. Caught + excluded a stray docs/research/helix_qa/ workspace dump (§11.4.30 guard).

FINAL integration sweep GREEN at HEAD 6444e38 (quiescent): go test ./... -p 1 = 58 ok / 0 FAIL; 6-gate pre-build suite PASS; build+vet clean. All FF-pushed both upstreams (no force §11.4.113).

SESSION FINAL STATE — autonomous queue DRAINED

Delivered: ~30 genuine mutation-proven bug fixes (13 waves; main-module bug-hunt SATURATED per §11.4.118 completeness audit); format matrix complete (6 in × 5 out); PDF+DOCX input revived; deepseek-v4 allowlist current; version single-source (5 binaries); workable-items tracker constellation (81 ATM tickets) + SQLite SSoT; 6-gate mutation-proven pre-build suite; §11.4.65 doc-export (225 siblings); perf/stress/chaos coverage (5 hot-path packages); docs/WORKING_PLAN.md (canonical unfinished+known-issues inventory).

REMAINING — all operator-gated or larger tracked follow-ons (NOT autonomously closable; see docs/WORKING_PLAN.md + docs/Issues.md ATM-065..081):

OPERATOR DECISIONS: P1.0 version number (2.3.0 vs 3.0.0; wiring done) · P3.1 pkg/hash remove-vs-relocate · P1.1 provider keys/balance (OPENAI/ANTHROPIC absent, GEMINI invalid, ZHIPU no-balance) → unblocks stale-allowlist audits (deepseek pattern proven) · P2.x design calls (inert flags, MinScoreThreshold scale, reasoning-model structured-content, markdown first-class input).
LARGER TRACKED FOLLOW-ONS: fuller §11.4.93 schema (item_history/db-to-md/fingerprint) · owned-submodule bug-hunt waves (§11.4.28 — ANOTHER SESSION ACTIVE on helix_qa, coordinate per §11.4.119) · full §11.4.27 test-type matrix + HelixQA/Challenges banks · P2.6 cmd/translator SSH download-dir (needs live SSH via §11.4.76 Containers).
RELEASE: P0.2 full §11.4.40 7-step retest → P0.3 §11.4.151 helix_translate-<version> tag (after the operator decisions + the test-type matrix).

Loop status (§11.4.94(A)/§11.4.101/§11.4.126): correctly rests on operator decisions — every remaining item is externally/operator-gated and explicitly tracked; nothing silently dropped. Resume by pointing a fresh session at this file + docs/WORKING_PLAN.md.

Session 2026-06-14s — WORKING_PLAN created + plan-execution begins (HEAD 06a8a16)

Operator mandate: comprehensive subagent-driven plan of all unfinished items + known issues, then execute. Bug-hunt declared SATURATED by the §11.4.118 completeness-critic (wave 10).

docs/WORKING_PLAN.md (78ce2d0) — the canonical no-bluff inventory: P0 release blockers, P1 operator/credential-gated, P2 design decisions, P3 dead code, P4 governance gaps, P5 owned submodules, P6 full test-type coverage. Each item: WHAT/WHY-OPEN/EVIDENCE/SUBAGENT-TASK/ACCEPTANCE.
Wave 10 (2 fixes + saturation verdict): e520c4c enhanceTranslation byte→rune capitalization (silently no-op for Cyrillic/accented first letters) + isRussianToSerbian empty-source (told LLM wrong source lang); 5b0dd17 the orphaned guard. docx_parser: no bug (exhaustive). Completeness-critic: main-module product bug-hunt SATURATED.
Wave 11 (3 plan items): a36030e P0.1 version single-source (pkg/version/app.go AppVersion=2.3.0; 5 divergent binaries reconciled, runtime-verified, mutation-proven); 981ced9 P3.1 §11.4.124 pkg/hash investigation (dead package main duplicate of pkg/version.CodebaseHasher — finding doc written, NOT removed per §11.4.122, operator decision queued: remove-as-duplicate vs relocate); 279ac7c P4.2 first real pre-build gate suite (CM-GITIGNORE-PRECOMMIT-AUDIT + CM-NO-FAKES-BEYOND-UNIT + paired mutation meta-tests). 59819fa→06a8a16 §11.4.120 reconcile of stale version assertions in cmd/cli (v2.0.0→dynamic) + cmd/server (fixed a tautological Contains("v1.0.0","1.0.0") §11.4.1 bluff). [Note: 59819fa committed a test before go test verified it — go build ./... skips _test.go; repaired fix-forward in 06a8a16. Lesson: use go vet/go test as the pre-commit compile check for test changes.]
§11.4.65 finding (P4.3): only 3 of 87 tracked docs/*.md have .html/.pdf siblings — large export gap (needs pandoc/weasyprint or honest §11.4.106 ToolAbsent skip).
Wave 12 in flight: P4.1 tracker constellation scaffold (Issues/Fixed/summaries + ATM-NNN) · P6 perf/benchmark + stress/chaos coverage · P4.2 gate-suite expansion (CM-SCRIPT-TARGET-SHELL-PARSEABLE + CM-VERSION-SINGLE-SOURCE).

Integration sweep GREEN at HEAD 06a8a16 (quiescent): go test ./... -p 1 = 57 ok / 0 FAIL. build+vet clean. CAMPAIGN TOTAL: ~30 genuine mutation-proven fixes; main-module bug-hunt saturated; plan execution underway.

OPERATOR DECISIONS QUEUED: (1) P1.0 authoritative version number (2.3.0 vs 3.0.0); (2) P3.1 pkg/hash remove-vs-relocate; (3) P1.1 provider keys/balance (OPENAI/ANTHROPIC absent, GEMINI invalid, ZHIPU no balance) to unblock allowlist audits; (4) P2.x design decisions (inert flags, MinScoreThreshold scale, reasoning-content support). See docs/WORKING_PLAN.md.

Session 2026-06-14r — bug-hunt waves 8-9: 7 more genuine mutation-proven fixes (HEAD daa2f70)

Continued the §11.4.70/§11.4.103 parallel campaign (background subagents on disjoint cmd/ + pkg/ scopes; reproduce-first + mutation-proven + single-package -p 1/-race; FF-pushed, no force).

86d10d4 cmd/translate-ssh: -output ignored — translated EPUB delivered to the INPUT dir instead of the requested path, then printFinalReport claimed success pointing at a nonexistent file (wrong-delivery + false-success).
309ca91 cmd/cli: gemini missing from getAPIKeyFromEnv env map → GEMINI_API_KEY silently ignored (translation failed with a key present).
21c2460 cmd/grpc-server: documented env-var overrides (GRPC_ADDRESS/PORT, LOG_LEVEL, ENABLE_METRICS/REFLECTION) never implemented → silently ignored.
cde2e1a cmd/deployment: handleStatus sliced ContainerID[:12] unconditionally → panic crashing the whole status command on any <12-char/empty ID.
93e89d7 cmd/grpc-server + cmd/monitor-server: wired the dead -max-connections flag (was hardcoded 50) + stopped swallowing monitor-server's router.Run() bind error (silent failed start).
daa2f70 logger: JSON reserved-key collision — a user field named level/message/timestamp overwrote the authoritative metadata → real severity/message/timestamp silently dropped.

Integration sweep GREEN at HEAD daa2f70 (quiescent): go test ./... -p 1 = 57 ok / 0 FAIL (up from 55 — the wave fixes added committed tests to 5 cmd/ packages that previously had none). build+vet exit 0.

CAMPAIGN TOTAL (waves 1-9): 25 genuine mutation-proven fixes (27 subagents). SESSION GRAND TOTAL ~32 real fixes. Wave 10 (completeness-critic audit + docx_parser + llm prompt/cache helpers) in flight to confirm saturation.

REMAINING (operator/design-gated, unchanged): OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys absent; GEMINI_API_KEY invalid; ZHIPU out of balance (allowlist stale, can't verify); ~30 other provider allowlists need funded keys; verifier MinScoreThreshold 0-100-vs-0-10 scale (no caller, operator decision); -chunk-size inert flag (design); markdown first-class input (design); reasoning-model structured-content client support (design); cmd/translator intermediate-md download-dir inconsistency (needs live SSH); submodules (challenges/containers/helix_qa) being worked by another session — do not collide (§11.4.119). NO release tag yet (needs §11.4.40 full retest + operator confirm + §11.4.151 prefix).

Session 2026-06-14q — parallel subagent-driven bug-hunt campaign (§11.4.70/§11.4.103): 18 genuine mutation-proven fixes across 7 waves (HEAD 4bbac9a)

Operator directive: continuous endless loop with 3–4 parallel subagents on all parallelizable workable items, rock-solid evidence, zero bluff. Ran 7 waves (21 subagents on DISJOINT package scopes per §11.4.58/§11.4.119); every fix reproduce-first (§11.4.115) + mutation-proven (§1.1) + single-package -p 1(+-race) validated; all FF-pushed to both upstreams (no force §11.4.113). 4 subagents honestly reported NO bug (events/websocket, storage, api/services) — no manufactured changes (§11.4.6).

The 18 fixes:

80d627b hardware: parseLscpuCores undercounts cores on multi-socket hosts (ignored Socket(s); dual-socket 16-core → 8).
0df25d9 preparation: coordinator never stamped ChapterNum → 0 → positional-fallback chapter-context mis-attribution after a failed chapter compacts.
c3117f8 batch: same-stem/different-ext inputs (book.fb2+book.epub) collide onto one output → data loss; reconciled the 3 stem-only tests (§11.4.120).
d0fe40a security: RefreshToken minted fresh tokens from EXPIRED/no-expiry claims (auth-bypass, session resurrection); zero residue confirmed.
d8142e5 verifier: /api/v1/verified-models hard-errored on zero verified models ({"models":null} fell through to array-decode).
20beda7 distributed: getFailureRate fabricated 100% failure rate on zero/expired window → falsely traps coordinator in degraded mode.
8f52370 fb2: <v>/<subtitle>/<text-author> dropped inline-element text (verse/quote/attribution data loss).
a728e57 llm/ollama: dropped temperature/max_tokens (must be in options per official API §11.4.99) → non-deterministic output.
be81550 markdown: chapter XHTML <title> unescaped → malformed EPUB for titles with &/</>.
7434ee4 verification: polishChapter/polishSectionRecursive index-out-of-range panic when translated has fewer sections.
fd07e18 grpc: SubscribeEvents delivered lifecycle events with empty session_id.
107e570 ebook/epub_parser: chapter text shipped HTML entities literally (Tom & Jerry, café).
fa35d2e config: nil-map panic in LoadConfig (omitted providers + any API-key env var set).
8316e3f translator core: data race / concurrent-map-write crash in BaseTranslator cache+stats (race-proven).
c416bd8 ebook/epub_writer: cover image mislabeled image/jpeg for PNG/GIF/WEBP/SVG covers → broken cover.
36f740a cmd/unified-translator: SSH provider used a hardcoded "ru→sr-cyrillic" prompt + hardcoded binary/model paths, ignoring all user flags (also carried the cmd/api-server health fix below, swept in by the wrapper).
(36f740a) cmd/api-server: healthCheck returned 200 "healthy" regardless of gRPC backend state → derives from conn.GetState() → 503 when not Ready.
85b3362 cmd/markdown-translator: -format flag never validated → unsupported value prints success but writes no file (false-success bluff).
4bbac9a .gitignore (§11.4.30): bare api-server pattern ignored the whole cmd/api-server/ SOURCE dir (no repo-root binary exists; build output is build/api-server) → hid the package + blocked its tests (api-server had ZERO committed tests). Anchored to /api-server; committed the health regression guard.

Operator-flag (no production caller, design decision): verifier MinScoreThreshold scale inconsistency — handler compares raw 0-100, adapter compares normalized 0-10; GetPreferences/GetProviderScore have no production caller; needs an operator decision on the canonical scale before either is wired (not guessed, §11.4.6/§11.4.120).

Process lesson (§11.4.119): the full go test ./... -p 1 integration sweep includes pkg/version's CodebaseHasher which hashes the whole tree (.go + .md + docs/) — it MUST run on a QUIESCENT tree; running it concurrently with file-writing subagents produces a spurious pkg/version hash-mismatch FAIL (confirmed green isolated). Sweeps + CONTINUATION syncs are therefore serialized BETWEEN parallel waves.

Integration sweeps GREEN at each quiescent checkpoint: waves 1-5 → 54 ok/0; waves 6+7 → 55 ok/0 FAIL (HEAD 4bbac9a; cmd/api-server now has committed tests). build+vet exit 0. SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~25 real fixes (this campaign's 18 + earlier: PDF revival, format matrix + .html, deepseek-v4 allowlist, websocket race, ssh-test, 2 doc-syncs).

Session 2026-06-14p — Zhipu allowlist §11.4.150 finding (operator-blocked); autonomously-provable queue drained

Zhipu allowlist is stale (Operator-blocked, §11.4.21): live Zhipu /models (account-authoritative, verified 2026-06-14) returns glm-4.5, glm-4.5-air, glm-4.6, glm-4.7, glm-5, glm-5-turbo, glm-5.1 — NONE of our allowlisted glm-4 family (glm-4/glm-3-turbo/glm-4-plus/glm-4-flash/glm-4-air/glm-4-airx/glm-4-long/glm-4-flashx) are listed. The generic factory (llm.go:218) HARD-REJECTS unlisted models, so a funded account requesting a current model is rejected (this is what the earlier "zhipu rejects documented models" flag actually was). Why not fixed autonomously: the account is OUT OF BALANCE (chat API error 1113 "余额不足/insufficient balance") → I cannot obtain §11.4.123 translation proof NOR verify response-shape compatibility (the magistral lesson: glm-5 reasoning models may return structured-list content our string-content client cannot parse — unverifiable while balance-blocked). Blindly adding glm-5 could enable a client-incompatible model. Operator-Block-Details: WHAT — recharge the Zhipu account OR provide a funded ZHIPU_API_KEY; WHY — every self-resolution exhausted (key present + API reachable, but balance blocks all verification; cannot manufacture credit); UNBLOCK CONDITION — a funded zhipu key so the deepseek-pattern fix (verify-translate + string-content shape, then additive allowlist update + RED-proven gate guard) can be applied; WHO — operator.
Contrast: deepseek had a funded key → fully provable → FIXED this session (0fd1a34). The verify-then-fix pattern is established; it just needs a funded provider account.

AUTONOMOUSLY-PROVABLE QUEUE DRAINED. All clearly-actionable, evidence-provable main-module work this session is done + green. Remaining known issues are ALL operator/research/design-gated (cannot be closed with rock-solid proof autonomously):

Operator (credentials/balance): add OPENAI_API_KEY + ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (absent); refresh GEMINI_API_KEY (live /models = "API Key not found"); recharge/replace ZHIPU_API_KEY (balance 1113). Each unblocks a verify-then-fix allowlist/E2E pass.
Research (needs funded keys): ~30 other provider allowlists not audited (audit pattern proven: live /models → verify-translate + string-content shape → additive update).
Design: -chunk-size CLI flag is inert (real chunking is automatic+correct via translateWithRetry/splitText; wiring the flag has ambiguous semantics OR removing it needs §11.4.122 operator confirm); markdown not a first-class CLI input (works as TXT today); reasoning-model structured-list content support in the OpenAI-compatible clients (would enable magistral/glm-5-class models).
Release: NO tag yet — needs §11.4.40 full retest + operator confirm + §11.4.151 <prefix>-<version> naming.

Loop status (§11.4.94(A)/§11.4.101/§11.4.126): idle-on-blocked — every remaining item is externally/operator-gated; no item is autonomously closable with rock-solid proof. Build is the most stable this session: full sweep 54 ok/0 FAIL, websocket race-clean, format matrix complete (6 in × 5 out), deepseek current.

Session 2026-06-14o — latent brittle test-harness defects fixed (HEAD 817b9dd); full sweep GREEN 54/0

Two latent test defects (NOT caused by this session's source changes — different packages) surfaced one-per-sweep by the §11.4.118 discovery-pressure of repeated full sweeps, root-caused (§11.4.102) + fixed + proven:

ab7db0e tests: DETERMINISTIC goroutine panic in tests/websocket_monitoring_test.go — concurrent map WRITE at the handleClientMessages defer delete. go test -race confirmed 22 races (suite.server.Clients + suite.testSessions + *TestSession fields accessed from the main goroutine, /status handler, and per-client goroutines without consistent locking; concurrent map read+write is a Go FATAL). Fixed: all shared-map access under suite.server.mu; thread-safe read helpers (clientCount/sessionCount/sessionSnapshot/totalSessionEvents, lock+copy, no I/O under lock) for /status + every assertion; TestMultipleClients writers joined via sync.WaitGroup (sleep = no happens-before edge → leaked writer raced another test's write to the same gorilla conn). PROVEN: -race -count=3 → 0 races; plain -count=5 → ok.
817b9dd tests: DETERMINISTIC fail in cmd/translate-ssh TestSSHErrorHandling/connection_timeout — the 'connection timeout' case asserted the error contains 'connection refused', but this host's slow localhost resolver returns 'lookup localhost: i/o timeout' (§11.4.1 FAIL-bluff: failed on environment, not product defect). Broadened the connection-class assertion to accept any connection-failure indicator (refused/timeout/no route/unreachable/no such host/lookup); auth case keeps its specific check; still requires a real error. PROVEN: -count=5 → ok.

Scope note (§11.4.28): the same brittle 'connection refused' assertion class exists in the challenges/containers/helix_qa SUBMODULES (separate go.mod → NOT in the main go test ./... sweep; their own repos/sweeps — separate work, noted for follow-up).

FULL SWEEP GREEN at HEAD 817b9dd: go test ./... -p 1 = 54 ok / 0 FAIL (qa-results/full_sweep_20260614_155722.log). build+vet exit 0. All 7 main-stream commits this session (PDF, output-format, .html, doc-sync, deepseek-v4, websocket-race, ssh-test) pushed FF to both upstreams (no force §11.4.113).

Session 2026-06-14n — provider model-allowlist §11.4.150 audit (live /models, not memory)

0fd1a34 deepseek: ValidModels[ProviderDeepSeek] was stale — only legacy {deepseek-chat,deepseek-coder}; deepseek.go HARD-REJECTS unlisted models, so the CURRENT flagship was rejected. Live DeepSeek /models (verified 2026-06-14) returns deepseek-v4-flash + deepseek-v4-pro; v4-flash proven to translate via full CLI (docs/qa/e2e_deepseek_v4_*, 136 Cyrillic chars). Added both (NOT deepseek-reasoner — not in /models, §11.4.6); kept legacy aliases (§11.4.122). RED-proven guard deepseek_v4_models_test.go. 2d98509 doc-sync: generateOutput comment now lists .html/.htm.
AUDIT FINDINGS (captured, for operator/future work):
- Mistral: allowlist {large,medium,small}-latest all present in live /models → FUNCTIONAL (aliases track current). NOT widened: the magistral-* reasoning family returns content as a STRUCTURED LIST (thinking blocks), which our OpenAI-compatible string-content clients CANNOT parse — adding magistral-medium would break for users. Latent gap (operator/design): supporting reasoning-model structured content is a non-trivial client change, not a blind allowlist add. (deepseek-v4-flash is safe because it returns content as a plain STRING with reasoning in a separate field — verified.)
- Gemini: live /models re-confirms API Key not found → §11.4.6 the gemini failures are an OPERATOR CREDENTIAL issue, NOT a code bug. Operator action: refresh GEMINI_API_KEY.
- Other ~30 providers' allowlists: not audited (no keys / would need per-provider live verification). Adding current models is safe-but-must-be-verified-per-model (string-content shape + real translation), never from memory (§11.4.99/§11.4.150).

Session 2026-06-14m — .html output added; input×output format matrix complete (HEAD fb07a59)

fb07a59 cli: added .html/.htm output to generateOutput (was: errored, while INPUT fully supports HTML — asymmetric gap). Minimal valid HTML5, HTML-escaped content (no markup injection). REAL E2E PROVEN (docs/qa/e2e_html_output_20260614_152301/): English PDF → real DeepSeek → out.html (valid HTML document, DOCTYPE + 2 , 140 Cyrillic chars, not a zip). Guard extended (output_format_test.go): well-formed-HTML + escaping (no <script> injection) subtests.

FORMAT MATRIX NOW COMPLETE: input FB2/EPUB/TXT/HTML/DOCX/PDF (6) × output EPUB/FB2/TXT/MD/HTML (5) — all real-translation proven this session set (PDF/DOCX revived from license-gated-dead; output formats honored; HTML output added). SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~84 real bugs/features + 5 reconciliations. build+vet exit 0; full go test ./... -p 1 sweep GREEN at HEAD fb07a59: 54 ok / 0 FAIL (qa-results/full_sweep_20260614_152400.log).

Session 2026-06-14l — CLI honors -o output format + 2 §11.4.120 reconciliations (HEAD ca5608f)

ca5608f cli: unified-translator ALWAYS emitted EPUB regardless of the -o extension → -o book.txt/-o book.fb2 wrote EPUB (PK-zip) bytes into a misnamed file (silent wrong-output, §11.4). New generateOutput() dispatches on extension: .epub (default)→EPUB; .txt/.md→translated text direct; .fb2→FB2Writer; unsupported→explicit error (§11.4.6). REAL E2E PROVEN (docs/qa/e2e_output_formats_20260614_151507/): same PDF → real DeepSeek → out.txt (UTF-8 plain, not zip, 135 Cyrillic) + out.fb2 (valid FictionBook XML, 138 Cyrillic). Permanent guard cmd/unified-translator/output_format_test.go, MUTATION-PROVEN (force always-EPUB → .txt/.fb2 FAIL).
§11.4.120 reconciliations surfaced by the post-PDF full sweep:
- test/unit/format_detector_test.go: PDF + DOCX moved to supportedFormats (real extractors landed); MOBI stays unsupported.
- cmd/cli TestTranslateEbookFunction/with_app_config: was a §11.4.98 BLUFF — skip-guard fired only with NO key, then forced openai + fake "config-key", dialled REAL OpenAI, 401'd, failed NoError whenever ANY other provider key was in env (DEEPSEEK/ZHIPU/GEMINI/MISTRAL present this session). Rewritten to a self-driving httptest OpenAI mock (config BaseURL→mock); asserts success + mock-hit + non-empty output. No real network, no env dependency.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~83 real bugs + 5 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversions + real E2E proofs (PDF, output-formats, 5-format matrix via DeepSeek + Mistral). All 6 input formats + 4 output formats (.epub/.fb2/.txt/.md) proven end-to-end. Post-fix full go test ./... -p 1 sweep GREEN at HEAD ca5608f: 54 ok / 0 FAIL (was 52 ok/2 stale-gate FAIL pre-reconcile; qa-results/full_sweep_20260614_151656.log). build+vet exit 0.

Session 2026-06-14k — PDF input revived: license-gated unipdf → MIT ledongthuc/pdf (HEAD 18d6f73)

18d6f73 ebook: PDF INPUT was non-functional — github.com/unidoc/unipdf's ExtractText is LICENSE-GATED ("unipdf license code required" for every real PDF), so PDF input shipped dead (same §11.4 "ships but cannot be used" class DOCX was, now both fixed). Swapped to MIT github.com/ledongthuc/pdf; dropped unidoc/unipdf via go mod tidy. Wired FormatPDF into pkg/format/detector.go IsSupported + GetSupportedFormats (§11.4.108 source→artifact gate; §11.4.120 reconcile of detector_test + pdf_parser_test's unipdf-coupled error-string assertion). REAL E2E PROVEN (docs/qa/e2e_pdf_input_20260614_150421/): minimal English PDF → real DeepSeek deepseek-chat (1.9s) → valid Serbian Cyrillic EPUB ("Храбри витез јахао је преко тихог сванућа у зору"), 138 Cyrillic chars, differs from source, no placeholders, no API-key leak (§11.4.10). Permanent regression guard (§11.4.135): pkg/ebook/pdf_extraction_regression_test.go + testdata/sample_text.pdf assert real extraction + reject any license-error string; mutation reverting to unipdf → FAIL.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~82 real bugs + 3 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion + real E2E proofs (PDF + 5-format matrix via DeepSeek + Mistral). PDF + DOCX (the two dead input formats) now both work end-to-end with rock-solid real-translation evidence. ALL 6 input formats (FB2/EPUB/TXT/HTML/DOCX/PDF) proven. Post-fix targeted tests green (pkg/ebook + pkg/format); full -p 1 sweep running in background (FD ~95%, host-safe). build exit 0.

REMAINING KNOWN ISSUES (operator/research/design-gated): OpenAI/Anthropic keys absent; GEMINI_API_KEY invalid; zhipu account/model access; markdown not a first-class CLI input; other ~30 providers' model-allowlists not audited; verifier 3-tier merge precedence + run.go registry flags (design); RefreshToken no expiry re-validate (no caller); CLI always emits EPUB (no TXT writer); SQLite encryption DSN needs SQLCipher; G1/G2 carry-overs; W16 Models→submodule. NO release tag yet (needs §11.4.40 full retest + operator confirm).

Session 2026-06-14j — design/known-issue cleanup (HEAD b83038c) — 3 more real fixes + gemini/zhipu clients cleared

Subagent-driven wave (1 completed via subagent, 3 rate-limited → finished inline per §11.4.101/§11.4.147):

77a0c15 coordination: TranslateWithConsensus tie-break was non-deterministic (map-iteration order on vote ties) → sort candidates, strict '>', lexicographic tie-break. Mutation-proven (1000 runs identical).
9640a00 verification: multipass chapter loop panicked (index out of range) when the translation has FEWER chapters than the original → bound the loop by min(original,current,polished) + log/skip the tail. FACT code-analysis root cause; build+vet+tests green.
b83038c ebook: FB2 writer dropped section/subsection TITLES (content was already lossless) → prepend each non-empty title as a paragraph. RED→GREEN→mutation-proven (real write→read).
gemini/zhipu CLIENT investigation (issue #5) RESOLVED as no client bug (§11.4.6): gemini.go correctly uses https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta + ?key= + :generateContent; zhipu.go correctly uses https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/paas/v4 + /chat/completions + Bearer. Their live failures are OPERATOR credential/account issues (invalid GEMINI_API_KEY; zhipu account lacks the model), NOT code.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~81 real bugs + 3 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion + real E2E proofs (5-format matrix via DeepSeek + Mistral). Post-wave sweep at HEAD b83038c: 53 ok; the single pkg/distributed FAIL was ENFILE host-exhaustion ("too many open files", FD ~95%), NOT a regression — TestSSHConnection_ExecuteCommand passes deterministically in isolation (-count=3 green); nothing in pkg/distributed changed this round. build+vet exit 0.

REMAINING KNOWN ISSUES (operator/research/design-gated — see the operator-facing status report): OpenAI/Anthropic keys absent; GEMINI_API_KEY invalid; zhipu account/model access; PDF input non-functional (license-gated unipdf, same class DOCX was — needs a free PDF lib / go.mod decision); markdown not a first-class CLI input; other ~30 providers' model-allowlists not audited; verifier 3-tier merge precedence + run.go registry flags (design); RefreshToken no expiry re-validate (no caller); CLI always emits EPUB (no TXT writer); SQLite encryption DSN needs SQLCipher; G1/G2 carry-overs; W16 Models→submodule. NO release tag yet (needs §11.4.40 full retest + operator confirm).

Session 2026-06-14i — real provider×format E2E matrix found + fixed more bugs (HEAD b23bcac)

Driving REAL translations across formats/providers (rate-limited subagents → done inline) surfaced + fixed:

41063cb FB2 + EPUB INPUT broken end-to-end: convertToMarkdown re-parsed already-extracted text as the original format ('failed to parse FB2: EOF' / 'not a valid zip'). Fixed → all 5 input formats translate. PROVEN: real DeepSeek E2E matrix FB2/EPUB/TXT/DOCX/HTML all → valid Serbian-Cyrillic EPUB (docs/qa/e2e_format_matrix_*).
9821e0f zhipu missing from cmd/unified-translator resolveProviderAPIKey env map → ZHIPU_API_KEY never satisfied the gate. Fixed (proven: now reaches the live Zhipu API). + Multi-provider proven: Mistral E2E PASS (docs/qa/e2e_multiprovider_*).
b23bcac stale provider model-allowlists (gemini/groq/zhipu accepted only DEPRECATED models, rejected current → providers unusable). Added current models; live-proven the gate blocker is gone (groq llama-3.3-70b → 429 'recognized'; gemini-1.5-flash → reaches API (auth err); zhipu glm-4-flash → reaches API (account err)). docs/qa/allowlist_fix_*.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~78 real bugs + 3 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion + real E2E proofs (5-format matrix via DeepSeek + Mistral 2nd-provider). OPERATOR/research-gated remainders: add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys (absent); GEMINI_API_KEY appears invalid/expired (gemini reaches API but 'API Key not found'); zhipu key's account/endpoint rejects documented models (possible gemini/zhipu CLIENT endpoint bug like Qwen's — flagged for investigation, not guessed §11.4.6). Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD b23bcac: 54 ok / 0 FAIL. Build+vet exit 0.

Session 2026-06-14h — operator-selected directions ALL executed (HEAD c6c2930); real E2E translation PROVEN

Operator selected all four next-directions; executed with conductor verification + push FF:

Qwen endpoint (556002d + 2f0e359): client posted native DashScope path under a compatible-mode base AND the CODE DEFAULT base was native /api/v1 while the struct+config are compatible-mode → wrong URL + unparseable shape (Qwen was broken for default+production). Fixed: default base → /compatible-mode/v1 + path /chat/completions + choices[] (all consistent, §11.4.150 docs-verified). Live test made §11.4.98-honest (SKIP on auth/endpoint failure).
Storage dedup (367adce): cache served STALE translation on tuple collision (no UNIQUE index; dedup only on id PK) → lookup_hash UNIQUE index + idempotent UPSERT + safe dedup migration, both backends. Mutation-proven.
DOCX (d433210): input was NON-FUNCTIONAL (license-gated unioffice returned 'license required' for every real .docx). Rewrote as a stdlib parser (archive/zip + encoding/xml over word/document.xml + docProps/core.xml); dropped unioffice (+ transitive msoleps) via go mod tidy. Proven on a real in-test .docx (text+metadata+UTF-8). DOCX input now actually works.
Stress/chaos + metrics race (bf81517): added §11.4.85 stress/chaos suites (events/coordination/distributed) which UNCOVERED a real VersionManager.metrics data race + 40-60% lost counter updates → fixed with metricsMu + snapshot-on-read; KNOWN_BUG guard flipped to active GREEN (§11.4.115).
CLI env-key gate (c6c2930): unified-translator's API-key gate ignored provider *_API_KEY env vars → fixed (falls back to resolveProviderAPIKey).
REAL E2E TRANSLATION PROOF (c6c2930, docs/qa/e2e_deepseek_20260614T130829/): unified-translator translated test/assets/crow_and_pitcher_en.txt EN→Serbian via REAL DeepSeek (deepseek-chat, 2.89s) into a VALID EPUB — 205 Cyrillic chars ('Гавран и крчаг…'), differs from source, no placeholders, no key leak (§11.4.83/§11.4.107/§11.4.10). Full detect→parse→translate→EPUB-write pipeline confirmed working after the session's fixes.
DOCX CLI wiring (6304f60): a broader multi-format E2E proof caught that the CLI still rejected .docx with 'format docx is not yet supported' — format.Detector.IsSupported/GetSupportedFormats excluded FormatDOCX (§11.4.108 source→artifact gap: parser fixed+registered but the pipeline gate refused it). Added FormatDOCX to both; reconciled detector_test (§11.4.120). REAL E2E proven (docs/qa/e2e_docx_pipeline_20260614T131850/): real .docx → real DeepSeek → Serbian Cyrillic EPUB. DOCX input now works through the actual CLI.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: ~75 real bugs + 3 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion + 2 real E2E proofs (DeepSeek on TXT + on DOCX, both → valid Serbian-Cyrillic EPUB). OPERATOR ACTIONS to widen coverage: add OPENAI_API_KEY / ANTHROPIC_API_KEY to ~/api_keys.sh (not present; ~34 other providers available). FLAGGED (not fixed, needs current-model research §11.4.150): the gemini provider's valid-model allowlist is STALE — accepts only gemini-pro/gemini-pro-vision (both deprecated by Google), rejects gemini-2.0-flash/1.5. Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 6304f60: 54 ok / 0 FAIL. Build+vet exit 0.

Session 2026-06-14g — 7th/final §11.4.118 second-pass wave (HEAD 5dfe003) — 4 more real bugs; whole-codebase second pass essentially COMPLETE

b1b747f progress: formatDuration trailing space in dashboard ETA ('5 hours '); events: generateEventID non-unique within a microsecond (8172 dups/10000 in a burst → broke ID-keyed consumers). Both fixed.
5dfe003 cmd: preparation-translator -providers flag silently ignored (hardcoded list); cli explicit -provider silently overridden by config default (precedence inversion). Both fixed.
CLEAN second-pass (honest §11.4.6, no fabricated bugs): logger, version, hardware, report, format, websocket, script.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 68 real bugs (5 parallel waves + 3 inline + 7 second-pass waves) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. ALL reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-reverified (-race/-p 1) + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113). 3 distinct security issues (CWE-204 enumeration, CWE-22 path traversal, CWE-208 timing oracle); extensive data-loss/correctness across ebook pipeline (EPUB/FB2/HTML/markdown round-trips), providers (Anthropic/OpenRouter/Qwen), distributed, storage/cache, verification, preparation, translator-core, batch, coordination, grpc, api. The codebase has had a comprehensive 2-pass hunt; remaining items are operator/review-gated (see flags below). Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 5dfe003: 54 ok / 0 FAIL (fullsweep_20260614T120039.log). Build+vet exit 0.

OPERATOR/REVIEW-GATED carry-overs (NOT autonomously fixable — need a decision): Qwen native-vs-compatible endpoint mode; storage cache dup-tuple UNIQUE index (schema/dedup-semantics); DOCX unioffice license (go.mod dependency); detected source-lang not propagated to llm translator (cross-package wiring); FB2 writer section-title flatten; verifier 3-tier merge precedence + run.go registry flags; coordination consensus tie-break determinism; G1 verify→server-DB bridge; G2 batched ~30-provider sweep; G3 add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys.

Session 2026-06-14f — 6th §11.4.118 second-pass wave (HEAD 837f528) — 4 more real bugs

53b5056 batch: directory batch to a non-existent output dir collided ALL files onto one path (only last survived) — data loss; fix: extensionless non-existent OutputPath treated as a directory.
df8a8cb coordination: TranslateWithRetry ignored ctx cancellation (full sweep+sleep on cancelled ctx); TranslateWithConsensus only scanned the first requiredAgreement instances → skipped available-and-agreeing instances behind unavailable ones. Both fixed.
837f528 translator: successful-but-empty translation ('', nil) silently OVERWROTE source content across metadata/chapter/section/subsection (7 fields) — 'tests pass but book destroyed' data loss; fix: keepIfTranslationEmpty preserves source when translation empty + source non-empty. Latent flag: detected source-lang not propagated to llm translator.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 64 real bugs (5 parallel waves + 3 inline + 6 second-pass waves) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 837f528: 54 ok / 0 FAIL (fullsweep_20260614T114733.log).

Session 2026-06-14e — 5th §11.4.118 second-pass wave (HEAD 367d88b) — 5 more real bugs (grpc/security/preparation)

45f6152 grpc: GetTranslationStatus returned codes.Unknown for unknown session (→ NotFound); cleanupOldSessions leaked session timeout context (didn't call CancelFunc → 24h timer/goroutine leak).
5871848 security: CWE-208 username-enumeration TIMING oracle — no bcrypt compare on user-not-found path → ~1.7M× faster than wrong-password → reveals valid usernames. Fix: dummy-bcrypt compare at init (OWASP constant-time).
367d88b preparation: failed-chapter analysis MISATTRIBUTION (positional index after results compaction → chapter got wrong chapter's analysis; fix: lookup by ChapterNum); nested-subsection content DROPPED from analysis input (extractors ignored Section.Subsections; FB2 populates them; fix: recursive writeSectionContent).

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 60 real bugs (5 parallel waves + 3 inline + 5 second-pass waves) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 367d88b: 54 ok / 0 FAIL (fullsweep_20260614T113420.log).

Session 2026-06-14c/d — two more §11.4.118 second-pass waves (HEAD 4a95b06) — 11 more real bugs; 3-stream low-FD method proven repeatable at ~95% FD, NO ENFILE

Wave c (verification/storage/markdown) = 7 bugs; wave d (api/verifier/script) = 4 bugs + script came back genuinely CLEAN (honest §11.4.6, no fabricated bug). All conductor-reverified (build+vet+ -p 1 per pkg + full sweep -p 1) and pushed FF.

34e09f8 verification: parseNote dropped a note ending in EXAMPLES (no IMPLICATIONS); NaN Confidence (count==0 divide); multipass section under-count (pointer aliasing).
9946d85 storage: Redis makeCacheKey metadata delimiter-injection collision (Ollama 'llama3:8b' has ':') → wrong translation; fixed NUL-joined hash.
d055b8c markdown: EPUB↔MD code blocks destroyed, GFM tables lost both ways, backslash-escapes corrupted — all fixed bidirectional.
b8bc3ec api: translateText silently dropped script=cyrillic + accepted invalid script (→ validate+switch); verifier handlers mapped all GetModel errors to wrong status (→ errors.As 404-vs-503).
4a95b06 verifier: buildFallbackChain rand.Shuffle destroyed score order + nondeterministic (→ keep FilterVerified order); OpenRouter pricing typed float64 but live API emits quoted strings → whole Tier-2 decode failed → 0 OpenRouter models (→ json.Number).

Honest flags (NOT fixed — ambiguous/spec-gated): verification polishWithNotes equal-chapter-count assumption; verifier run.go registry CanSeeCode/AffirmativeResponse + 3-tier merge precedence; api getStats nil-cache (not prod-reachable) + distributedManager-gated SSRF/null-JSON (integration-gated); storage dup-tuple unique-index (review-gated); script Convert short-circuit leaves stray off-script chars (deliberate pinned optimization). pkg/script second-pass = CLEAN (mature, all 30 letters map, digraph casing correct).

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 55 real bugs (5 parallel waves + 3 inline + 4 second-pass waves) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 4a95b06: go test ./... -p 1 = 54 ok / 0 FAIL (fullsweep_20260614T112302.log). build+vet exit 0.

Session 2026-06-14b — parallel §11.4.118 second-pass discovery wave (HEAD 47ea69d) — 5 more real bugs; ran 3 subagents at ~95% FD with low-FD discipline, NO ENFILE

Operator repeatedly requested parallel subagents; FDs never freed (~95%, 15 claude procs). Honored the informed repeated instruction with mitigations: 3 streams (not 4), investigation-first + targeted -p 1 tests only, no ./... , no -race during hunt. Result: NO ENFILE, 5 real bugs, conductor-reverified (build+vet+ -p 1 each pkg green), 3 commits pushed FF.

87a8048 — Anthropic client returned only response.Content[0].Text but the Messages API returns content as an ARRAY: long output split across text blocks was TRUNCATED, and a leading thinking/redacted_thinking block made Content[0].Text=="" → EMPTY translation. Fix: concatenate all text blocks (skip thinking/tool). httptest RED→GREEN→mutation.
edadd73 — distributed performance.go ResultCache.Set evicted on every update-while-full (didn't check key-exists) → shrank cache below maxSize, dropped valid entry. + coordinator.go round-robin currentIndex never reset on DiscoverRemoteInstances rebuild → index-out-of-range PANIC after worker pool shrinks (translation hot path). Both RED→GREEN→mutation (-p 1).
47ea69d — ebook epub_parser.go built opfDir+href verbatim; EPUB OCF hrefs are percent-encoded/relative (RFC 3986) but zip entries are literal → 'chapter%20one.xhtml' never matched 'OEBPS/chapter one.xhtml' → chapter+cover SILENTLY DROPPED (data loss). Fix: resolveEPUBHref (PathUnescape + ./ ../ normalize). + html_parser.go removed a hardcoded 'Nestedtexthere'->'Nested text here' test-hack that corrupted any real doc containing that substring. RED→GREEN→mutation.

Honest §11.4.6 flags (NOT auto-fixed — ambiguous intent/operator-gated): Qwen endpoint↔response-shape mismatch (native DashScope path vs OpenAI-compatible config base-URL — needs operator decision on intended Qwen mode); coordinator reduced_quality fallback lowercases passthrough text; FB2 writer section-title flatten. Markdown→EPUB path clean-verified (lists/blockquotes/fences/headers all handled). EPUB writer clean-verified.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 44 real bugs (5 parallel waves + 3 inline + this 5-bug second-pass wave) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. Post-wave full sweep GREEN at HEAD 47ea69d: go test ./... -p 1 = 54 ok / 0 FAIL (host-safe -p 1 avoided ENFILE at ~95% FD); evidence qa-results/full_sweep/fullsweep_20260614T104630.log. Build+vet exit 0.

Purpose: Single canonical out-of-the-box entry point for any fresh session (§11.4.131 / §12.10 / §11.4.127). To resume: point a new session at THIS file, run git fetch --all, and say continue.

Session 2026-06-14a — host-safe single-stream inline (HEAD bd8a1ef) — 2 more real data/correctness bugs in pkg/translator/llm (the chunking path subagents skipped)

Context: operator returned, asked for 3-4 parallel subagents; chose "free FDs first" but host kern.num_files stayed ~94-95% of maxfiles (13+ concurrent claude processes, NOT freed). Per §12 host-safety I did NOT launch parallel subagents (ENFILE risk); instead ran host-safe single-stream INLINE work (targeted -p 1 tests never hit ENFILE all night) and armed a background watcher (b3qgjr30s) to auto-launch the parallel wave the instant FD<80%. 2 commits, pushed FF.

24b0fd0 — splitText DROPPED PARAGRAPH SEPARATORS at chunk boundaries (the >20KB size-error retry path subagents had skipped as out-of-scope). It stripped "\n\n" via Split + re-added inconsistently (never around an oversized para, never across a chunk seam); reassembly strings.Join(chunks,"") then glued the last paragraph of one chunk to the first of the next; "\n\n\n\n" collapsed to "\n\n". Structural data loss in translated large chapters. Fix: splitText now tiles losslessly — re-attach each para's "\n\n" so Join(splitText(text),"")==text (makes reassembly correct by construction). RED (5 cases dropped \n\n) -> GREEN -> mutation polarity proven.
bd8a1ef — in-memory cache-key COLLISION served wrong translation: key was fmt.Sprintf("%s:%s",text,contextStr); ":" inside text means ("a:b","c") and ("a","b:c") both -> "a:b:c" -> 2nd request served 1st's translation (same class as the storage Redis fix). Fix: makeLLMCacheKey injective via length prefix "%d:%s:%s". RED (Translate served xlate(a:b) for input "a") -> GREEN -> mutation-proven (helper body).
71babe1 — FB2 writer DROPPED deeply-nested section content (>2 levels): chapter loop only descended sec.Content + direct sub.Content, never sub.Subsections (depth 3+) -> deep translated text vanished from the .fb2 (EPUB writer's recursive formatSection preserves it). Fix: collectSectionParagraphs recurses the full Subsections tree. RED (real write->read: LEVEL_3/_4 missing) -> GREEN -> mutation-proven. Honest note (§11.4.6, NOT fixed — ambiguous intent): FB2 writer still flattens section/subsection TITLES to chapter level (sec.Title not written); content now lossless.
EPUB writer (pkg/ebook/epub_writer.go) §11.4.6 clean-verified: escapeXML correct+complete, OPF/NCX/chapter filenames consistent, shared identifier, Chapter has no orphan Content field — no data-loss; no bug invented.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL now: 39 real bugs (waves 1-5 = 32 + wave-5 4... see below) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 conversion. Build STABLE GREEN, go build ./... exit 0; pkg/translator/llm passes offline. Watcher b3qgjr30s armed (40min cap) → auto-launch 3-4 parallel subagents for a §11.4.118 second-pass discovery wave the moment FD<80%. While FD-pressured, conductor continues host-safe single-stream inline bug-hunting.

Session 2026-06-13g — bug-hunt wave 5 (HEAD ceab1db) — 4 real bugs incl. CWE-22 path traversal + PairingManager race; build STABLE GREEN; paced for §12 host-safety

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 3 parallel subagents (PairingManager mutex · pkg/language · pkg/api) + conductor verify-then-commit. 3 commits (38300e4..ceab1db) pushed FF.

38300e4 — pkg/distributed PairingManager.services map DATA RACE (no manager mutex; map + *RemoteService.Status/LastSeen/PairedAt written by health goroutines, read by GetPairedServices) → one RWMutex, deadlock-averse (unlocked-internal addService helper, no re-entrant lock, lock never held across HTTP probe / event Publish; performHealthChecks snapshots under RLock then releases). RED(-race)→GREEN(-race -count=5 ~4s no hang)→mutation; full pkg -race ok ~52s. Resolves the wave-4 flagged latent.
5c1a2ae — pkg/language 2 UTF-8 bugs: detectHeuristic sampled text[:1000] by BYTE → under-counts trailing multi-byte script → majority-Cyrillic book mis-detected as English (→ 1000 RUNES); FormatLanguageCode code[:2] by BYTE → invalid UTF-8 on multi-byte char (→ 2 RUNES); + DetectLanguage prompt sample rune-fix (source-only, network-gated). Mutation-proven, -race ×3.
ceab1db — pkg/api PATH TRAVERSAL (CWE-22): uploadUpdate/applyUpdate interpolated the X-Update-Version header into a filepath.Join, '..' escaped the update dir → arbitrary file write. → validateUpdateVersion allowlist (reject ''/'..'/separators/NUL/>128, charset [A-Za-z0-9.+_-]). RED(200+escaped path)→GREEN(400)→mutation; existing 11 subtests pass, -race ×3.

BUILD STATE — STABLE GREEN. Every package passes: the post-wave-5 full sweep showed 52 ok + 2 transient FAILs (pkg/translator TestMemoryUsage + test/integration build) that were proven ENVIRONMENTAL (§11.4.7), NOT code: error was literally "too many open files in system"; go test -c ./test/integration compiles exit 0; both re-ran GREEN at -p 1. Root cause: host kern.num_files at ~95.8% of kern.maxfiles (122880) from 5 waves of parallel subagents + repeated full go test ./... + a concurrent claude security-review process. Last fully-clean authoritative sweep: HEAD de25a98 = 54 ok / 0 FAIL (qa-results/full_sweep/fullsweep_20260613T230845.log). go build ./... exit 0 throughout.

§12 HOST-SAFETY DECISION (§11.4.101 safest/most-stable): host file table near saturation → STOP spawning more parallel subagents / full-repo builds until it recovers (adding load risks tipping past maxfiles = other workloads fail to open files = the destabilization §12 forbids). The autonomous-safe disjoint package queue is also essentially EXHAUSTED — the whole codebase surface has been hunted across 5 waves (llm, websocket, coordination, fb2, ebook[epub/html/docx], batch, cmd, verifier, preparation, storage, report, markdown, format, grpc, security, hardware, version, progress, services, config, cache, translator-core, distributed, language, api). Per §11.4.94(A) the remaining items are genuinely blocked → paced re-verification, not idle-by-laziness.

SESSION GRAND TOTAL (2026-06-13 → 06-14): 36 real bugs fixed across 5 waves (7+10+7+8+4) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 llm offline conversion

All reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-independently-reverified (-race) + 24 descriptive commits pushed FF to milos85vasic/Translator + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate (no force §11.4.113). Notable: CWE-204 auth enumeration oracle, CWE-22 path traversal, gRPC remote-DoS nil panic, websocket cross-session event leak, FB2/markdown/ebook round-trip data loss, cache+pairing+versionCache+ssh data races, UTF-8 mid-rune corruption (translator+language).

Flagged latent (review/operator-gated, NOT autonomously safe overnight): storage cache dup-tuple unique-index (schema/dedup-semantics change §11.4.124); DOCX unioffice license-gated (go.mod dependency decision); security RefreshToken re-validate (no caller, defense-in-depth); G1 verify→server-DB bridge; G2 batched ~30-provider sweep; G3 add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys to api_keys.sh. These need operator decisions (user away) — correctly deferred per §11.4.101/§11.4.122.

Session 2026-06-13f — bug-hunt wave 4 + full-repo sweep GREEN (HEAD de25a98) — 8 real bugs; `go test ./...` = 54 ok / 0 FAIL offline

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 4 parallel subagents (internal/services+config · internal/cache · pkg/translator core · pkg/distributed deeper) + conductor verify-then-commit + post-wave full sweep. 4 commits (eeda1ee..de25a98) pushed FF.

eeda1ee — services/config 3 bugs: GetPreferences claimed sorted-by-score but did NO sort (passed only on pre-sorted fixture) → sort desc; FallbackOrder used unfiltered index → first accepted pref got 2 not 1 → contiguous post-filter rank; config all-zero scoring weights fail-open ('total>0 &&' skipped the sum check) → reject. Mutation-proven.
9d4f4a4 — internal/cache cleanup goroutine LEAK: NewCache(_,true) launched 'for range ticker.C' with no Close/stop → one goroutine + pinned Cache leaked per instance forever (unbounded on a long-running server). Added stop chan + Once-guarded Close() + cleanupWG; backward-compatible. Mutation-proven (200 caches→200 leaked).
c1bd61f — pkg/translator universal.go language-detection sample sliced sample[:2000] by BYTE → mid-rune split → invalid UTF-8 to Detect (common case for Cyrillic/CJK ebooks) → truncateOnRuneBoundary. Mutation-proven, drives real detector.
de25a98 — pkg/distributed 3 bugs: checkServiceHealth set Status='online' unconditionally → every paired worker DEMOTED+dropped after first 30s tick → all work distribution lost (HIGH); versionCache map had NO mutex (existing one is AlertManager's) → BatchUpdateWorkers data race → cacheMu; ssh LastUsed two-locks-one-field race → conn.mu touch()/idleSince(). Mutation-proven, full pkg -race ok.

STABILITY MILESTONE (re-confirmed): go test ./... -count=1 all provider env unset = 54 ok / 0 FAIL, go build ./... exit 0. Evidence: qa-results/full_sweep/fullsweep_20260613T230845.log. SESSION GRAND TOTAL: 32 real bugs (waves 1-4: 7+10+7+8) + 2 reconciliations + §11.4.98 llm offline conversion, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-reverified (-race) + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113).

Flagged latent (honest §11.4.6, NOT autonomously fixed — review/larger-blast-radius): PairingManager.services map needs a manager-level mutex (~10 methods); storage cache dup-tuple unique-index (schema/dedup-semantics change); DOCX unioffice license-gated (go.mod); security RefreshToken re-validate (no caller). Operator-gated: G1/G2/G3.

Next-wave queue (disjoint, autonomous-safe, thinning): pkg/language, pkg/api (deeper non-integration logic), the PairingManager mutex (careful single-mutex + -race). After that the autonomous-safe disjoint queue is largely exhausted → legitimate idle per §11.4.94.

Session 2026-06-13e — bug-hunt wave 3 + full-repo sweep GREEN (HEAD 8d0b1b6) — 7 real bugs + 2 interaction-defect reconciliations; `go test ./...` = 54 ok / 0 FAIL offline

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 4 parallel subagents (grpc · security · ebook html/docx · hardware/version/progress) + conductor verify-then-commit. Then a full-repo go test ./... sweep (§11.4.40-style interaction check) caught 2 latent defects, both reconciled. 6 commits (6e1b1f2..8d0b1b6) pushed FF.

6e1b1f2 — grpc 2 bugs: StartTranslation deref'd req.ProviderConfig.Type unconditionally (proto3 optional → nil panic, no grpc recovery → remote-DoS CRASH the serving goroutine) → validate up front, InvalidArgument; session-limit TOCTOU (RLock-check then Lock-insert) + duplicate SessionId silently overwrote prior session WITHOUT CancelFunc (timeout-context leak + orphaned translation) → atomic gate+reserve, AlreadyExists. Mutation-proven over bufconn, -race ×2.
96999b3 — security: AuthenticateUser checked IsActive BEFORE password → username/account-status enumeration oracle (CWE-204; API maps to 403 vs 401) on the live login path → validate password FIRST, disclose inactive only with correct password. Also fixed a §11.4.1 JWT-tamper test FAIL-bluff (mutated last sig char, ~1/64 flaky → first char, 200/200). RED(exploit)→GREEN→mutation, -race ×3, downstream pkg/api green.
95323d8 — ebook HTML: td/th/dt/dd cells concatenated with no separator ('cell Acell B') +
dropped ('line oneline two') → isCellElement newline +
newline. Mutation-proven. HONEST PENDING_FORENSICS: DOCX parser depends on license-gated unioffice → non-functional for real DOCX (go.mod-scope, not fixed).
044bacb — hardware: vm_stat malformed page-size discarded parse error → 0 available RAM → guard (err==nil && >0); meminfo kB*1024 uint64 overflow wrap → maxKB guard. progress: GetProgress clobbered Complete()'s 'Completed' ETA → gate override on <100% && status!='completed'. Mutation-proven.
8d0b1b6 — full-sweep interaction reconciliations (§11.4.120/§11.4.98): test/unit scoring expectations updated to the FIXED weight formula (0.78→0.675, 0.625→0.5, math-verified, not a revert); cmd/cli TestTranslateEbookFunction/with_app_config dialed real Qwen (env-dependent) → honest §11.4.3 SKIP when no provider key.

STABILITY MILESTONE: go test ./... -count=1 with ALL provider env unset = 54 ok / 0 FAIL / 24 no-test-files, deterministic offline. go build ./... exit 0. Evidence: qa-results/full_sweep/fullsweep_20260613T225207.log. Session total this run: 26 real bugs (waves 1+2+3) + 2 reconciliations, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-reverified + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113).

Next-wave queue (disjoint, autonomous-safe): internal/services, internal/config, internal/cache, pkg/translator (deeper, non-llm), pkg/distributed (deeper pure-logic), cmd more. Carry-over latent (review-gated, NOT autonomously fixed): storage dup-tuple unique-index; DOCX unioffice license (go.mod); security RefreshToken re-validate. Operator-gated: G1/G2/G3.

Session 2026-06-13d — parallel subagent bug-hunt wave 2 (HEAD 39ee07a) — 10 real bugs, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-reverified (-race) + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113)

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 4 parallel subagents (disjoint scopes: internal/verifier · pkg/preparation · pkg/storage+report · pkg/markdown+format) + conductor verify-then-commit. 4 descriptive commits (539659b..39ee07a) pushed FF to milos85vasic/Translator + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate.

539659b — internal/verifier 3 bugs: scoring/engine.go applied weights.Capability TWICE + DROPPED Recency (sum 1.15, broke 0..1 contract); discovery HF models keyed on legacy modelId only → valid id-only payload collided every model on ID="" → ZERO usable models; registry FilterVerified/ListModels map-iteration nondeterministic order (latent flake). All mutation-proven, -race.
1bee190 — pkg/preparation 3 bugs: analyzeChapters appended goroutine results in COMPLETION order → GetTranslationContext[n-1] mis-attributed each chapter's analysis to the wrong chapter (→ slot-indexed, no mutex); multi-pass consolidation set FinalAnalysis from fresh parse with no chapter_analyses → all per-chapter analysis silently lost (→ re-attach); isUntranslatable strings.Contains(text,"")==true → blank LLM term marked EVERY string untranslatable incl. title (→ skip empty). Mutation-proven, -race ×3.
0a415b1 — pkg/storage negative CacheHitRate in GetStatistics (all 3 backends sqlite/postgres/redis): (totalAccess-totalTranslations)/totalAccess went negative when entries inserted-but-rarely-reread (3 entries,1 hit=-200%) → hits/(hits+misses), always [0,100). Mutation-proven via real SQLite round-trip.
39ee07a — pkg/markdown 3 reader-visible EPUB-output bugs in the PRODUCTION chapter path: h4-h6 headers shipped as literal #### x (only 1-3 handled; §11.4.108 source→artifact — h4-6 lived only in a dead sibling fn); fenced code blocks flattened to one  with literal fences+collapsed newlines (→ <pre><code>); SimpleWorkflow wrote body/header text RAW → malformed XHTML on &/</> (→ escapeXHTMLText). Mutation-proven.

Honest clean-verifications (§11.4.6): coordination/scoring/selection concurrency sound; openai/qwen/zhipu/llamacpp clients parse correctly; format detector edge cases correct; Redis cache-key+avg-duration sound (prior fixes intact).

FLAGGED latent (NOT fixed — needs conductor/operator review per §11.4.124, schema change): pkg/storage SQLite/Postgres cache has NO UNIQUE index on the lookup tuple (source_text,source_language,target_language,provider,model); storing the same tuple under 2 different ids leaves 2 rows and GetCachedTranslation can return the older STALE row. No production caller constructs cache IDs today (all in tests). Correct fix = UNIQUE index migration changing dedup semantics → review-gated.

Next-wave queue (disjoint, autonomous-safe): pkg/distributed deeper (conductor-owned §11.4.119), pkg/grpc, pkg/security deeper, pkg/ebook html/docx parsers, pkg/hardware, pkg/version/progress. Carry-over: storage dup-tuple unique-index (review-gated); G1/G2/G3 operator-gated.

Session 2026-06-13c — parallel subagent bug-hunt wave (HEAD f451468) — 7 real bugs, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + conductor-reverified (-race) + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113)

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 4 parallel bug-hunt subagents (disjoint package scopes) + conductor verify-then-commit (§11.4.147/§11.4.142). Conductor independently re-ran build+vet+-race on every affected package and reviewed every production diff BEFORE committing. 6 separate descriptive commits (caa39c1..f451468), pushed FF to milos85vasic/Translator + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate.

caa39c1 — websocket Hub.StartServer SESSION FAN-OUT HOLE: /ws handler left Client.SessionID empty → hub's per-session filter skipped → every dashboard got EVERY session's events (real caller cmd/ssh-translation). Fixed (read session_id from query) + moved off global DefaultServeMux→private mux (dup-/ws panic). Mutation-proven (alpha client saw beta's BETA-LEAK frame), -race ×3.
91e71c4 — fb2 Paragraph had UnmarshalXML but NO MarshalXML (Text/FullText are xml:"-") → parse→write round-trip emitted empty  = TOTAL paragraph data loss. Added MarshalXML (FullParagraphText, id/style attrs, escaped once). Mutation-proven.
ef8b3c7 — ebook EPUB fallback cleaner 2 bugs: CleanXMLData blind 2-char prefix rewrite corrupted valid entities (&→&mp;) + text (Q&A); removeHTMLTags regex EXCLUDED self-closing/void tags (

) → leaked literal markup into chapter text. Fixed (escapeBareAmpersands + unified htmlTagRe, RE2-safe). Mutation-proven; stale test reconciled §11.4.120.
7e05c5e — batch Process(ctx) NEVER honored cancellation (no ctx.Err/Done in either loop) → ran every remaining file, error stayed nil. Added seq guard + parallel in-worker short-circuit + post-Wait surfacing. Mutation-proven ×2, -race ×3.
3225c8d — cmd UPPERCASE/mixed-case ext not stripped: TrimSuffix(base, ToLower(ext)) left "Story.EPUB"→"Story.EPUB_sr.epub" (case-insensitive FS). Fixed in unified-translator (3 helpers) + translator. Mutation-proven; stale test reconciled §11.4.120; cmd/translator gained first tests.
f451468 — §11.4.98 offline-ize: openai/qwen/zhipu error-paths → httptest; llamacpp auto-download → temp-HOME stub .gguf (no HF dial); HF_TOKEN skip-guards; TestValidate AvailableRAM pinned. Whole pkg/translator/llm now passes OFFLINE ~8s, all provider env unset, mutation-checked each converted test still has teeth. No prod client bug (honest §11.4.6).

Honest clean-verifications (§11.4.6 — investigated, NO bug): pkg/coordination (lock ordering leaf-only, consensus chan cap≥goroutines, immutable instances post-init); openai/qwen/zhipu/llamacpp clients parse correctly (defect was purely tests dialing real APIs).

Next-session queue (disjoint, autonomous-safe): bug-hunt internal/verifier (scoring/discovery/selection/client), pkg/preparation, pkg/storage (deeper), pkg/distributed (deeper pure-logic), pkg/markdown/format/html/docx parsers deeper. Carry-over G1 (verify→server-DB bridge), G2 (batched ~30-provider sweep), G3 (operator: add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys to api_keys.sh).

Session 2026-06-13b — parallel subagent bug-hunt wave (HEAD 86175d0) — ~15 real bugs, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + -race + pushed FF (no force §11.4.113)

Mode: §11.4.126 autonomous loop + §11.4.103 ≥3 parallel streams (conductor + 4–5 background bug-hunt subagents/wave). §11.4.147 exercised heavily — multiple subagents were rate-limit-crashed ("Server is temporarily limiting requests") and respawned until complete; conductor independently verified every subagent claim (-race + scope census + §11.4.142 diff review) BEFORE committing. Commits pushed to milos85vasic/Translator + HelixDevelopment/HelixTranslate, fast-forward, no force.

a40a9b9 — logger shouldLog fail-open (typo level "warning" → logged everything incl DEBUG in prod) + fail-drop (unknown msg level dropped) → levelRank fallback (cov 84.3→91.1%); progress tracker 5 bugs (GetProgress data race, Complete() 0% clobber, negative %, ETA float truncation, divide-by-zero PANIC); ollama_test 4 subtests dialed real httpbin.org → httptest (6.6s→0.3s offline) §11.4.98.
3a7ae78 — gRPC EventBus handler LEAK (SubscribeEvents never unsubscribed → unbounded allEvents growth) → added SubscriptionID+Unsubscribe+HandlerCount, defer Unsubscribe, drop close; + pre-existing session-field DATA RACE (sessionsMutex guarded only the map) → locked Status writes, snapshot-under-RLock GetTranslationStatus, fixed latent recursive-RLock deadlock in ListTranslations. Mutation-proven (events + real bufconn leak test), -race ×3.
a2aa3da — report ReportGenerator data race (unsynced appends) → sync.Mutex + snapshot-under-lock; deepseek/anthropic/gemini tests dialed real api.* → httptest (package 30.6s→19.2s offline) §11.4.98.
ef0a60f — verification multipass O(n²) DUPLICATE DB WRITES (polishWithNotes re-saved the whole accumulated report.SectionResults each chapter → polishing_changes got 1+2+…+N dup rows; section_results PK-conflict inserts failed silently) → saveNewResults cursor. Mutation: 15 change rows for 5 chapters vs 5.
916dddd — storage Redis cache-key HASH COLLISION (32-bit poly-31 → distinct texts shared a key → WRONG cached translation served) → sha256; + Redis avg-duration dilution → accumulateAvgDuration. Mutation-proven.
86175d0 — markdown→EPUB ROUND-TRIP DATA LOSS: links/images/blockquotes left literal in HTML AND the production convertMarkdownToXHTML chapter path (readers got [text](url) / >) → blockquote accumulation + image/link inline conv (image-before-link). <ol> start renumber pinned KNOWN-LOSSY. 4 bugs mutation-proven.

Honest clean-verifications (§11.4.6 — investigated, NO bug): gRPC StreamTranslationProgress (streams-map delete-under-lock + non-blocking send ⇒ no send-on-closed); preparation extractJSON (string-aware matchBalanced + json.Valid guard + fenced handling robust; crashed preparation subagent left only scratch, removed §11.4.84).

REMAINING NET §11.4.98 offenders (still dial real api.* — confirmed via keys-stripped per-test timing): openai (TestOpenAITranslateErrorPaths), qwen, llamacpp (HF download paths), zhipu invalid_model. Same httptest pattern → strong next-wave item.

Next-session queue (disjoint, autonomous-safe): finish NET httptest-ization (openai/qwen/zhipu/llamacpp); bug-hunt cmd/* entrypoints, pkg/websocket, pkg/coordination, pkg/batch, pkg/fb2, pkg/ebook parsers/writers, pkg/distributed deeper, internal/verifier. Carry-over G1 (verify→server-DB bridge), G2 (batched ~30-provider sweep), G3 (operator: add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC keys to api_keys.sh).

Session wrap-up — W13, W15 (api/grpc), W16 all resolved (HEAD 1cc66ac)

W15 api/grpc DONE (real, evidence-backed) — subagent-driven. Built build-tagged integration suites: pkg/api/server_realhttp_integration_test.go (real HTTP via httptest + real JWT + real Postgres via brokertest: health, JWT 401/200, login→token round-trip, /api/v1/verified-models, session persist round-trip) and pkg/grpc/server_storage_integration_test.go (real gRPC over bufconn + real Postgres: submit→persist, status, cancel, list-count, 8× concurrent, error-code via status.FromError; §1.1 mutation-proven). LLM-translate leg = honest §11.4.3 SKIP (no provider key). Normal go test boots NOTHING; SKIP-clean without podman.
REAL AUTH BUG fixed (W15 api leg, commit 0e2a999) — InMemoryUserRepository.Create stored the caller's pointer; CreateUser clears Password="" post-Create → blanked the stored bcrypt hash → EVERY user registered via CreateUser could never log in. Fix: repo stores a COPY. Conductor-reproduced RED(401)→GREEN(200) on TestAPIRealHTTP_LoginTokenRoundTrip (§11.4.115). Remaining W15: only the pure LLM-translation E2E (operator-gated on a real provider key).
W13 DONE (commit 1cc66ac) — 8 PascalCase .gitmodules section labels → lowercase (paths were already compliant). Done §9.2 backup-first; all 11 submodules verified resolving to identical baseline SHAs after git submodule sync, dirty challenges/helix_qa preserved, build exit 0, backup removed post-gate.
W16 RESOLVED = KEEP Models/ as-is — the pkg/modelsbridge bridge already consumes digital.vasic.models (functional need met). Converting Models/ → a git submodule requires creating a NEW upstream repo under an owned org — an operator-gated repo-creation action (§11.4.101 block-only-when-irreversible+undeterminable; §11.4.122 keeping is the safe no-change path). Convert path remains available on operator request.

Autonomous-safe queue now EMPTY. Genuinely-remaining = operator-gated only: W15 LLM-translation E2E (real provider key) + W16 convert (new upstream repo decision). Per §11.4.94 this is legitimate idle.

LLMsVerifier real-key integration — DONE (HEAD e7d6d67; submodule 95fb1cce)

Operator directive: use ~/api_keys.sh so the LLMsVerifier submodule performs its mandatory steps and provides valid providers + models to the System. Done, evidence-backed (§11.4.83 docs/qa/llmsverifier_20260613_182600/, key-free):

Ran the submodule's REAL discovery/verification with real keys → 89 verified models (DeepSeek 2, Cerebras 2, Groq 16, Mistral 69; OpenAI/Anthropic honestly fail — no key in api_keys.sh).
Two real bugs found + fixed, both §11.4.135 mutation-proven guards (exact production errors):
- Bug B (main, internal/verifier/client.go) load-bearing: the System's SSOT client couldn't decode the server's {"count":N,"models":[...]} envelope → consumed ZERO models while server healthy. Fixed (envelope-aware decode). Guard: client_envelope_test.go. System now fetches all 89 e2e.
- Bug A (submodule llmverifier/models.go, 95fb1cce, pushed GitHub+GitLab): numeric context_window (Groq) crashed the whole provider decode → 0 models. Fixed (tolerant UnmarshalJSON). Guard: context_window_unmarshal_test.go.
Secrets: keys sourced inline only, never printed/logged/committed (§11.4.10); evidence dir + edits secret-scanned clean; throwaway run artifacts removed (§11.4.14).

Honest follow-up gaps (tracked, not bluffed — §11.4.6):

(G1) Submodule verify (report) pipeline does NOT persist into the server SQLite DB — the served DB was seeded via live discovery (verifier's own client+database pkgs). Architectural bridge worth a workable item.
(G2) Full ~30-provider exhaustive per-model coding-capability scoring timed out at 600s in one pass; reliability-scored the seeded set. A bounded/batched sweep is the follow-up.
(G3) Providers without keys (OpenAI/Anthropic/Perplexity/Together) fail auth honestly; add their keys to api_keys.sh to include them.

Real-bug-hunt waves (HEAD eb7576e) — 17 real bugs fixed this session, all reproduce-first + mutation-proven + pushed

LLMsVerifier real-key integration: 89 verified models flow to the System end-to-end; System's own in-process verifier env-bridge (31 models, cmd/verify-models); real DeepSeek translation proof ("The sky is blue today."->"El cielo esta azul hoy.").

Bugs fixed (each RED->GREEN, §11.4.135 guard, §1.1 mutation-proven, real evidence; commits e7d6d67/dfb250c/f80153b/eb7576e + submodule 95fb1cce):

Auth lockout (CreateUser blanked stored bcrypt hash); Verifier consume (client.go envelope); Verifier serve (listVerifiedModels dropped all); Groq context_window (submodule); Hardcoded RU->SR prompt (RU->SR Ekavica preserved); Uppercase Cyrillic digraph (LJUBAV); Ordered-list numbering lost; UTF-8 mid-rune truncation (HIGH, Cyrillic); Import data race; FB2 inline+tail text dropped (CRITICAL); FB2 writer escaped markup; FB2 format misdetection; EPUB OPF/NCX id mismatch; Markdown inline whitespace collapse; silent chapter drop; list reverse round-trip; extractJSON wrong span.

Remaining tracked follow-ups (honest, §11.4.6/§11.4.118):

G1: submodule verify-pipeline->server-DB bridge (serial submodule wave, §11.4.119 contends with main builds; conductor-owned).
G2: batched full ~30-provider verification sweep (one-pass timed out 600s).
G3: add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC/etc keys to api_keys.sh (operator) to include those providers.
Deferred-broader: markdownToHTML round-trip edges; preparation extractJSON LLM-output spec; verification multipass duplicate DB writes; ambiguous nj/lj/dz Latin->Cyrillic (structural §11.4.112 won't-fix).

Bug-hunt wave 3 (HEAD 6c76c3f) — 6 more real bugs (session total ~23), all mutation-proven + pushed

CRITICAL OpenAIClient panic on non-float64 temperature (blast radius = ALL OpenAI-compatible providers) — toFloat64/toInt coercion.
CLI -temperature/-max-tokens ignored by openai/anthropic/qwen/zhipu — Options>typed-field>default precedence.
Gemini discarded valid MAX_TOKENS partial text (data-loss) — accept STOP/MAX_TOKENS/"" (gemini_test.go reconciled §11.4.120).
EventBus.Publish unbounded goroutine-per-handler + RLock-held-across-spawn → explosion + writer-starvation livelock — synchronous dispatch, lock released first (-race clean).
LLMInstance.Available/LastUsed data race (mutex in 1/5 sites) — accessors (-race clean).
APIKeyStore unsynchronized map → fatal concurrent-map panic (DoS) — RWMutex (-race clean). JWT/rate-limit confirmed already-hardened.

NEW tracked finding (this wave)

pkg/translator/llm full go test HANGS when api_keys.sh is in-env — a NON-tagged test reaches the network (§11.4.98 violation: unit tests must be deterministic/offline). The wave's new defect tests are httptest/deterministic; the hang is in a pre-existing test. FIX: build-tag or httptest-ize the offending test. (Bounded go test -run <name> works fine.)

Remaining queue (for fresh-session continuation per §11.4.141/§11.4.127)

G1: submodule verify-pipeline->server-DB bridge (serial submodule wave; §11.4.119 contends with main builds — conductor-owned, NOT parallel with main-repo subagents).
G2: batched full ~30-provider verification sweep (one-pass timed out 600s).
NET: fix the non-tagged network-reaching test in pkg/translator/llm (§11.4.98).
G3: add OPENAI/ANTHROPIC/etc keys to api_keys.sh (operator) to widen provider coverage.
More untouched packages to bug-hunt: pkg/storage (deeper), pkg/progress, pkg/report, pkg/logger, cmd/* entrypoints, pkg/grpc (the flagged send-on-closed-channel at server.go:403 — events pkg has no Unsubscribe; real follow-up).
Deferred-broader: markdownToHTML round-trip edges; gemini GenerationConfig hardcoded (same class as fix #2); verification multipass duplicate DB writes.

Fixed a regression I introduced: challenge scripts' PROJECT_ROOT="${SCRIPT_DIR}/../.." broke when moved 1 level deeper → corrected to ../../..; 3 challenges re-verified PASS (cache_invalidation, model_verification_gate, anti_bluff step1-3).

CLOSED this session (2026-06-13, batch e775088 / llm_provider b3dc7f9 — all pushed, captured evidence)

W4 ✅ pkg/security flaky Short-TTL — widened TTL→1min; 50× + -race + CPU-load all PASS.
W5 ✅ pkg/distributed 120s timeout — bounded SMTP send (real defect) + in-process test servers; 3× ~48.5s, vet 0.
W6 ✅ internal/verifier/discovery 600s timeout — injectable URLs (prod unchanged) + sentinel stub + honest SKIP; 3× ~1s, paired §1.1 mutation proven.
W7 ✅ llm_provider CONST-036 propagation block — challenge GREEN; html/pdf regenerated.
W8 ✅ anti_bluff_execution_challenge.sh BSD-sed — portable tmpfile sed (§11.4.67); isolated rc=0 proof.
W9 ✅ tracked .bak/.backup residue — git-history-investigated (§11.4.124), removed + .gitignore; build 0.
W10 ✅ -script latin→Cyrillic — pkg/script was never imported into unified-translator; normalizeScript wired; RED→GREEN 7 tests + 3×.
W12 ✅ 8 challenge scripts brittle root — git -C rev-parse --show-toplevel w/ fallback (§11.4.111); all parse:OK root:OK.
D2 ✅ (wave2, 7331c54) test/unit intermittent FAIL — TestVerifier/EventEmission timing race (50ms Sleep vs goroutine-dispatched handler) + data race (proven -race). Mutex eventCollector + bounded poll. BEFORE 1/10 FAIL+race → AFTER -race -count=10 10/10 PASS.
W2-A ✅ (wave2) cmd/unified-translator coverage 3.2%→18.0%, mutation-verified; + latent dangling-pointer fix (Steps []TranslationStep→[]*TranslationStep).
W2-B ✅ (wave2) pkg/storage coverage 32.9%→35.3% (Redis cache-key helpers 0%→100%, real SQLite round-trips), mutation-verified, daemon paths honest-SKIP.
wave3 (18c5137): W3 pkg/translator/llm stress/chaos + FIXED real prod data race in BaseTranslator cache+stats (RWMutex, -race ×3); W2 sshworker 19.6%→39.7%; W2 batch 77.2%→90.6%.
wave4 (de256dd): sshworker progress-map leak on ctx.Done() fixed (defer cleanup, RED 300/300→GREEN -race); D3 pkg/translator{,/llm} test-only EventBus races fixed (asyncFlag); D7 pkg/events TestEventBus_Subscribe race fixed; W2 verification 64.0%→73.5%; W2 script (already 100% stmt) +11 behavioral/digraph tests.
D5 (9004477) FIXED real bug pkg/verification parseNote: CONTENT-only note (no IMPLICATIONS) silently dropped → finalize Content; RED→GREEN, mutation-verified.
D6 (9004477) FIXED verified_factory map-order flake → order-independent ElementsMatch; 10/10.
wave5 (af1ef47): W14 scripts/commit_all.sh wrapper (no-force/multi-upstream/FF-only/quiescence/explicit-pathspec/bg-push) + hermetic selftest 13/0 (conductor-run verified) — NOT yet wired to real remotes (line-by-line review pending); W2 format 0%→97.6%, markdown 73.9%→80.1%, coordination 0%→92.9% + GENUINE nil-guard fix in TranslateWithRetry (mutation-verified: revert→nil-panic). §11.4.147: format+coordination were rate-limit-crashed at report stage; conductor verified+adopted their work (not lost, not blindly trusted).

Session total: ~39 items resolved (+ D10 pkg/distributed FULLY -race-clean 9→0 races [4 sources incl. FallbackManager.Stop() lifecycle fix]; + D9 hardware parser testability 44.6→68.4%)

Prior: ~37 items (+ models bridge wiring digital.vasic.models into the system; + D12 REAL CORS auth-bypass vuln fixed; + D11 doc)

Prior: ~34 items (+ W15: real Postgres+Redis on-demand integration proven; PG connection-pool DoS bug found+fixed; containers StartRedis helper added)

Prior: 31 items (+ wave7: grpc 0→53.3% bufconn, api 55→62.2% httptest, security +14 adversarial tests — all real-protocol/anti-bluff, auth confirmed hardened)

Prior: 29 items (+ wave6: websocket race-fix, hardware/distributed chaos tests, D10#2 api_logger PRODUCT data-race fix)

Earlier session total: 26 items (W4-W10,W12 + D2 + W2×6[unified-translator/storage/batch/sshworker/verification/script] + W3 translator + sshworker-leak + D3 + D7 + D5 + D6). Real prod bugs fixed: translator cache race, SMTP no-deadline, dangling step-ptr, sshworker map-leak, event races (D2/D3/D7), note-content loss (D5).

OPEN workable items (queue — many parallelizable, disjoint scope)

#	Item	Type	Notes / evidence
W1	`Models/` (`digital.vasic.models`) orphan module	RESOLVED-via-bridge	Operator directed "create bridge": pkg/modelsbridge now CONSUMES digital.vasic.models (go.mod require+replace=>./Models), contract-tested 100%, mutation-verified (146b2b5). No longer orphan. W16 (convert to git submodule) still optional/operator-gated.
W2	Coverage → ~100% (§11.4.27); ongoing	Task	Done: unified-translator 18%, storage 35.3%, batch 90.6%, sshworker 39.7%, verification 73.5%, script(100%+depth), translator/llm(+stress/chaos). Also grpc 53.3% (bufconn), api 62.2% (httptest), security 84.8%+adversarial, hardware/distributed chaos. NOTE: gRPC/api-server/server/redis/postgres at 0% are integration-infra-gated (need real daemons) — W15 containers-first unlocks these; honest deferral per package.
W3	Missing test types: chaos, ddos, scaling, ui, ux, full-automation (in-module)	Task	§11.4.85 chaos/stress mandatory.
W11	Wire more docs_chain contexts (Issues/Fixed/Status once they exist)	Task	docs_chain proven operational.
W13	`.gitmodules` section labels still PascalCase	Task (cosmetic)	Needs per-submodule `.git/modules/*` gitdir move.
W14	No project commit wrapper `scripts/commit_all.sh` (§11.4.22)	Task	IN-FLIGHT (wave5): multi-upstream push + no-force §11.4.113 + explicit-pathspec + quiescence + background-push §11.4.88 + hermetic self-test. Review before wiring to real remotes.
W15	Containers-first infra (§11.4.76)	Feature	storage DONE: real Postgres+Redis on-demand integration via containers/pkg/brokertest (StartPostgres + new StartRedis), build-tagged; pkg/storage CRUD+chaos exercised real DBs; found+fixed PG unbounded-pool DoS (default 25/5). REMAINING: api/grpc DB+LLM pipeline paths need operator-gated LLM keys/SSH (can't autonomously). Pattern + helpers in place for any future slice.
W16	Convert `Models/`→`models` submodule after W1 resolved	Task	Blocked on W1.
D1	`docs_chain` + `security` CONSTITUTION.md lack literal `CONST-036`	Task	§11.4.118 discovery. They use §11.4.X cascade scheme (not CONST-NNN); challenge doesn't check them. Governance-design decision needed — do NOT blindly inject CONST-NNN (§11.4.6).
D4	`pkg/script` Latin→Cyrillic morpheme-boundary mis-transliteration	Bug (open)	konjugacija→коњугација (should be конјугација); injekcija, nadживети similar. Greedy digraph matching; real fix needs morpheme/dictionary model (high blast radius) — operator-aware decision. Pinned with KNOWN-LOSSY tests.
D8	✅ FIXED (218bfa0) `pkg/markdown` bare-leading `---` data-loss	Bug (fixed)	Frontmatter now must begin at first non-blank line; later `---` = HR/chapter separator. RED(1ch)→GREEN(2ch), mutation-verified. Minor `<ol>`→dash numbering remains pinned/unfixed (D-list, low priority).
D9	✅ FIXED (fc66c62) hardware parser testability	Task	Extracted 12 pure parsers from exec callers (behavior-preserving); 44.6→68.4%, mutation-verified.
D10	3 baseline data races (FACT, captured -race)	Bug	#2 api_logger PRODUCT race ✅ FIXED (3027da2, snapshot, mutation-verified). #1 ssh_pool + #3 performance ConnectionPool. ✅ ALL FIXED (fc66c62): ssh_pool options API, perf locked-map + count-snapshot, FallbackManager.Stop() lifecycle. pkg/distributed now 0 races.
D11	✅ FIXED (b8a24f5) CLAUDE.md mislocated CORS under pkg/security	Task	Corrected: CORS is server-layer (cmd/server corsMiddleware + internal/config).
D12	✅ FIXED (b8a24f5) CORS auth-bypass vuln	Bug(security)	cmd/server corsMiddleware reflected ARBITRARY origin + Allow-Credentials:true under default `[""]` → any site could make credentialed cross-origin requests. Fixed: wildcard→literal `` no-creds; creds only for specific allowlist. RED→GREEN, mutation-verified.
W14b	✅ DONE — reviewed + adopted	Task	Independent review: guards sound (force-reject full-argv, FF-only via merge-base --is-ancestor, multi-upstream URL-dedup, explicit-pathspec, quiescence). FOUND+FIXED cross-platform hardening: mutation grep lacked `-I` → GNU grep (Linux) false-aborts on binary `.pdf`/`.html` pathspecs (BSD grep doesn't; §11.4.81). Self-test 13/0. ADOPTED for normal source/doc commits. Dogfood surfaced finding #2: the §11.4.84 residue scan false-positives on files that legitimately CONTAIN marker strings (the script's own MUTATION_MARKERS def, governance docs, marker-referencing tests) — inherent to grep-based detection; §11.4.84 has no escape hatch (correct), so commit such files via manual explicit-path git. commit_all.sh is for the common case.

NEXT phases (priority order)

Phase 4 — drive W2–W8 + W10: per-type test suites to ~100% (§11.4.27), real Challenges + HelixQA bank execution with captured evidence, expand real ebook translations (all formats, whole chapters, anti-bluff §11.4/§11.4.69). Subagent-driven, ≥3 parallel streams.
Phase 5 — containers-first infra (W15); docs_chain context expansion (W11); full docs (guides/diagrams/SQL/templates) + enterprise Website.
Phase 6 — RC tag helix_translate-1.0.0-dev-0.0.1 across all submodules + main ONLY when genuinely green (§11.4.40), operator-confirmed.

Binding constraints

Anti-bluff §11.4 (real captured evidence, no false PASS) · no-force-push §11.4.113 (merge-onto-latest-main) · multi-upstream push §2.1 · flat snake_case §11.4.28/§11.4.29 · every change independently reviewed §11.4.142 · host-safety §12 (no suspend/poweroff) · no silent component removal §11.4.122 · containers-first §11.4.76 · release prefix §11.4.151 · subagent-driven default §11.4.70 · ≥3 parallel streams §11.4.103.

Gotchas

/Volumes/T7 is case-sensitive HFS+ (NOT the internal disk — verify on the actual volume, §11.4.6).
No scripts/commit_all.sh; stage explicit paths, never git add -A; never git add helix_qa (nested third-party pointer drift).
PIPESTATUS empty in this shell (zsh); use $? directly.
Mutation challenges can leave .go.backup/.bak residue — scan + clean before commit (§11.4.84).
