Check-in — 2026-08-09 session delta¶

TL;DR¶

Control-plane runner gha-mgmt / homelab-mgmt-01 is live on runner-management. TP-Link EP10 path is fully retired (hardware dead; owner scrubbed HA/UDM leftovers). Prox 24h mem soak still waits on Monday finalize ntfy before shrink/retire. Stage 7 OneUptime pilot remains on ≥1 week soak.

Phase status¶

Item	Status
Prox mem soak (#262/#266)	Sampling live; finalize Mon 2026-08-10 11:15 PDT
Alert noise / Stage 7 pilot / Komodo ntfy	Live (see prox soak entry)
`gha-mgmt` + `RUNNER_FLEET_MAINTENANCE_RUNS_ON`	✅ Online `172.29.240.15`; var set
Aqara / TP-Link 7R leftovers	✅ Closed — EP10 deprecated; owner HA/UDM cleanup done
Dep bump cryptography + pymdown (#268)	Merged
Hyper-V-host Ansible path (#267)	Merged

What shipped (this afternoon)¶

Owner TODOs: create gha-mgmt, set fleet maintenance runs-on, close Aqara HA + EP10 (#269, #270).
Live device map: EP10 under Retired / removed, not “still needs move”.
Fleet smoke: Runner fleet operations on homelab-mgmt-01 via RUNNER_FLEET_MAINTENANCE_RUNS_ON.
Fleet-wide inventory failed: GET …/ci-toolkit/actions/runners → 404 (read App likely missing Actions access on that repo) (run).
Repo-scoped health scope=homelab green on homelab-mgmt-01 (run).

Known gaps / drift¶

Soak journal “merge #262” rows are stale — already merged; wait for finalize report only.
June journal snapshots still mention deferred TP-Link (period truth; leave).
Second runner-management host still recommended before fleet-wide applied maintenance (self-maintenance guard).
Fleet-wide observe/inventory needs GitHub App install (or remove ci-toolkit-* from fleet.yml) before scope=fleet stays green.

What remains¶

Who	Work	Priority
Owner	Reply to Mon finalize ntfy: `approve graylog` / `haos-influx` / `both` / `wait`	P0
Agent	After approve: shrink/retire with explicit destroy confirms	P0
Owner	Stage 7 pilot soak ≥1 week → cutover	P1
Owner/Agent	Fix fleet-wide observe: App access to `ci-toolkit` or drop instances from `fleet.yml`	P1
Agent	Optional second mgmt runner before disruptive fleet-wide apply	P2
