Feed the milestone back into the spec and steering. HANDOFF: the open "first demonstrated"
question is RESOLVED -- xiaomusic (path, prefix-check-bypass) demonstrated on the vulnerable
side (3/3 affected, 0/3 safe) and the blind fixed-side search produced 0 false proofs; pair
total $1.22. Records the six-fix chain that enabled it (parity, verify-time-only, fair-share
budget, served-root guidance, oracle prefix-bypass coverage, control-signal feedback) plus the
keystone. tasks.md: implementation note; pilot (6.2/6.3) in progress. spec.json: pilot status.
safety-net steering: proof-based BLOCK mechanism reached first execution-backed demonstration
(feasibility-pilot scope, not release readiness; pilot exit + 73-negative qualification open;
classifier stays triage). search README: status note. Payload-free; demos/boards stay gitignored.

When a path demo does not serve ${served_root}, the keystone control fails
(SideRecord.control_observed False) but the search only reported a generic
inconclusive, so the agent kept making the same wiring mistake. The pilot now
surfaces the affected side's control_observed in the verify result, and the
coordinator appends one advisory, deduplicated "served-root" hint (visible in the
board snapshot the agent reads) telling it to set the served-directory config to the
${served_root} placeholder. Advisory only: verdicts, _end, the oracle, the differential
and the demo validator are unchanged; the hint fires only when control_observed is False.
Tests: coordinator + pilot_run suites 78 passed; ruff clean; mypy unchanged (pre-existing
benchmarks errors only). Host-side change, no image rebuild.

--ceiling-usd was one shared SpendBudget passed to every search, so an expensive
search drained the pool and starved later ones: in the last 2-pair/$2 run the first
search spent $1.60 and the second hit the ceiling at $0.34 after finishing its analysis.
The driver now allocates a dynamic fair share per search (remaining_ceiling /
searches_not_yet_started), rolls unused settled budget forward, caps each search at its
share, and keeps total settled <= ceiling. A search now gets room to author and verify
after it finds the path.
Driver-only change (benchmarks/search/pilot_run.py) plus tests. tests/test_search_pilot_run.py
39 passed; ruff clean; mypy unchanged (pre-existing benchmarks errors only).

Replays a stored demo through the executor task and the verifier lane for one
side or both, with per-phase timings, so verifier changes are checked on the
exact image before any paid search.

Archives are gzipped and uploaded in parts of at most 90 MB with per-part
digests (edge request limit); pip installs ignore the task venv so transitive
dependencies land in products; the verifier sets NODE_PATH and the Java
classpath from products when starting the app.

HTTP start waits up to 90 s (CLI 30 s) with TCP then HTTP probing; app stdout
and stderr tails are recorded; tool-call turns get 4096 output tokens with one
retry on truncation; tasks get 40 steps with reminders.

The agent passes a manifest file or project directory; pip uses -r for
requirements files and the directory for pyproject/setup, npm ci/install runs in
the directory, composer/maven/gradle likewise. Build and verify failures carry
phase, exit code and a sanitised stderr tail.

Demos declare their oracle within the family allowed set (injection: sql or
command; output_encoding: xss; untrusted_destination: ssrf; path: path);
builds and app starts use the search memory budget instead of the 256 MB tool
limit (npm died with SIGTRAP); malformed tool-call JSON is fed back once.

budget_spent carries end_detail (spend, task_spend, reason_rounds, ...); a task
whose allowance cannot cover the next call finishes with its facts; per-task
metrics in pilot records; input reservation bytes/2 + 1024 per message (measured
3-4x over-reservation before).

Zero running workers behind "no free workers available" now raises
ClusterUnavailable instead of waiting out the capacity deadline; CapacityDeadline
carries its message; cleanup failures no longer mask the original exception; the
pilot driver aborts the run on infrastructure failure before any model call.

First live run: the reason step got ~190 tokens and returned {} -> silent
no_evidence. Now: a bootstrap intent reads the candidate and its entry point; the
reason prompt states the goal, family oracles, demo schema and must propose
intents when none are open; empty replies retry once then end as reason_refused;
failure records keep messages.

One side per run over selected pilot pairs: board, brain on the VM with the
project DeepSeek client, executor tasks on kube-ax, verification on the VM lane
(AX verify lane switchable). Hard run ceiling with reservation before every call,
per-search and step caps; fixed side never sees the vulnerable revision; records
carry digests only. Dry run with the stub model reaches demonstrated.

Reasons carry type plus a sanitised message tail; command failures carry phase,
exit code and bounded stderr. Scratch walk tolerates directories pip removes
mid-walk; writable /workspace/home and runtime paths. Capacity retries delete a
possibly created task before resubmitting. Docker smoke checks the image first.

20 development pairs, one per repository, 4 per language, 5 per family; identities
in a gitignored manifest, counts and digest committed. Executor smoke drives one
executor task end to end without a model and fails loudly on an unread clone.
kube-ax operator constraints as steering.
