  # The extension version is DERIVED, not hand-maintained (milestone 271 step
  # 4): build.yml computes it from the commit TIME of the newest packaged
  # extension change and stamps it into manifest.json / package.json at build
  # time. The guard that used to live here — "packaged files changed but nobody
  # bumped the version" — was therefore checking a fact that had stopped
  # existing. Worse than useless: it would have failed this lane on every real
  # extension change, demanding a bump that decides nothing. Retired 2026-08-27
  # rather than left running beside the new mechanism (rule 22).
  #
  # Two things are still worth asserting, and this is the only lane that can:
  # the extension.yml suite runs on node:24-slim, which is exactly why
  # version.spec.js sticks to packaging.sh's git-free subcommands.
  #   1. the derivation actually resolves on this commit
  #   2. the derived string is one AMO will accept, checked against Mozilla's
  #      own published grammar rather than a loose "digits and dots"
  #
  # The MAJOR.MINOR-agreement check that used to be (2) is gone with milestone
  # 318 step 8: the committed version no longer seeds anything, so there is no
  # hand-set part left for the two files to disagree about.
  #
  # Deliberately NOT checked here: that the derived value beats what has already
  # been signed. That guard belongs in build.yml, where it compares against the
  # real ext-* releases. Comparing against origin/main here would be wrong —
  # dev legitimately derives a LOWER value whenever main is ahead on the
  # extension, and a lane that fails for being behind is a lane people learn to

  # Single integration job — collapsed from a 3-way shard split on 2026-06-04.
  # The shards existed to parallelize ~8.5min of integration tests; once the
  # throwaway Postgres runs with fsync OFF (the durability step below) the whole
  # suite runs in ~45s, so the split only triplicated the ~2min fixed overhead
  # (container + `uv pip install` + `alembic upgrade head`) and burned 3 of 6
  # runner slots for no wall-clock gain. One job now: spin up once, install
  # once, migrate once, run every integration test.
  #
  # The docker-ps filter scopes to THIS job's own Postgres/Redis service
  # containers by job name. act_runner strips underscores from job names when
  # labelling containers (`int_api` matched nothing on 2026-05-25), so the name

  # Pre-baking requirements.txt into ci-python:3.14 is intentionally NOT done —

 # --- ML, merged from Dockerfile.ml (milestone 422 step 6) --------------------
 #
 # ONE image now serves every lane. It was two because the ML lane ran in its
 # own container; with the single-container layout (step 5) running every lane
 # in one process tree, a second image would mean the `ml` lane could never be
 # enabled from the UI — there would be no worker in this container to enable.
 #
 # THE COST, MEASURED from run 7273 rather than guessed — and it is far
 # smaller than the estimate this comment first carried, which said "everyone
 # pulls ~4GB":
 #
 #   torch 2.12.1+cpu wheel     192.3 MB
 #   torchvision 0.27.1+cpu       1.8 MB
 #   transformers / onnxruntime / opencv / sklearn and friends (opencv and
 #   onnxruntime since dropped, #1451 — nothing here imported them)
 #                               62.0, 35.3, 23.6, 16.7, 12.3, 9.2, 6.9 MB
 #   largest newly-pushed layer 222.07 MB
 #
 # So the ML code adds a few hundred MB to the pull, not gigabytes. The CPU
 # index is what makes that true: the default PyPI torch wheel bundles the
 # NVIDIA CUDA runtime and is ~2GB on its own.
 #
 # The GIGABYTES are in the MODEL — ~3.5GB of SigLIP weights — and those are
 # NOT in this image. They arrive only when the operator enables the lane,
 # which is what lets rule 164 permit a runtime fetch at all ("optional and
 # clearly off"). That also settles the trade this step was asked to weigh:
 # baking the weights in would add ~3.5GB to every pull for a feature many
 # adopters never enable, against ~350MB for the code that makes the switch
 # available. Off-by-default wins by an order of magnitude, which was NOT
 # obvious before measuring — the estimate had the two costs within 15% of
 # each other.
 #
 # `--index-url`, not `--extra-index-url`: the latter would let pip resolve a
 # +cu wheel anyway, and the whole saving above depends on it not doing that.

 `ls -l /dev/nvidia-uvm` on the host with the same inside the container, then:

 """What this agent build IS — stamped at image build time, not configurable.
 The mirror of `backend/app/build_info.py`, for the same reasons and with the
 same posture. Kept as its own module rather than as constants in `app.py`
 because it is stdlib-only and therefore importable by the test suite, which
 cannot import `app` (torch, transformers and ultralytics are not in the CI
 image — see build.yml's "Agent syntax check").
 ## Why this replaced a hand-written string
 `app.VERSION` used to be a literal an author was asked to bump, carrying a
 version AND a changelog in one string:
    VERSION = "2026-07-17.1 · idle model-unload: after ~5 min idle ..."
 Nobody bumped it. The September image printed the identical string to the July
 one, so the one surface that was supposed to answer *"did my pull work?"*
 answered *"2026-07-17.1"* either way. An artifact that cannot identify itself
 is worse than one that says nothing, because the stale value reads as an
 answer.
 The values are now derived by `scripts/artifacts.sh` from the commit its
 shipped files last changed in — the same derivation the web image has used
 since milestone 313, and the same one the reuse check already ran for the
 agent and discarded.
 ## Three values, never folded together (rule 149)
 * `FC_VERSION` — the NAME, `YYYY.MM.DD.HHMM` UTC, derived from COMMIT time.
  For people to read and quote. Identical on `dev` and `main` for the same
  source, which is the property that makes "am I running the same code as
  production?" answerable at a glance.
 * `FC_CHANNEL` — a SIBLING field, never a suffix inside the name.
 * `FC_REVISION` — the 12-char commit sha, the artifact's IDENTITY. This is
  what the reuse check already keys on as the `fc.revision` image label.

 stamp, and neither does any image predating this module. One spelling of
 "cannot say" instead of two.

        lease just re-leases elsewhere — never fatal.
        ## Why this sends with an EMPTY list rather than skipping
        Curator's roster records a check-in on this call (and on `lease`), and
        calls an agent stopped after 300s of silence. This loop used to be
        gated on `if ids:` — so an agent holding no leases sent nothing at all,
        and the only check-in left was the lease poll, which sleep mode backs
        off exponentially to a 900s ceiling (see IDLE_POLL_MAX_SECONDS).
        900 against 300: an IDLE agent was structurally guaranteed to read as
        stopped. Operator, 2026-09-23: *"I'm running the gpu agent on my device
        and it currently reads as 'offline' but it's running and has checked in
        recently."* It had — twelve minutes ago, partway up the backoff ladder.
        The two halves were written ten weeks apart and never reconciled: sleep
        mode landed 2026-07-02, and the roster adopted the lease as its
        check-in on 2026-09-02 without noticing the call it was piggybacking on
        had been deliberately slowed.
        An empty heartbeat extends nothing (`id.in_([])` matches no rows) and
        costs one small POST every 45s — against the 6/min lease poll sleep
        mode exists to avoid, that is not a cadence worth protecting, and it is
        what makes "is the agent alive" answerable at all.
        Still gated on `self._running`: a worker that has been stopped is not
        checking in for work, and reporting it as present would be a different

 """worker_lane — settings-backed slots for each celery lane.
 Milestone 422 step 1. One row per lane, holding only what an operator can
 change: how many slots it runs, the ceiling they have set for themselves, and
 whether it consumes its queues at all.
 ## What is deliberately not a column
 **The queues.** They are decided by `celery_app.py`'s `task_routes`, not by
 preference, so a stored copy could contradict the routing table with nothing
 to notice until a queue had no consumer. They live in
 `services/worker_lanes.py`.
 **The derived ceiling.** Computed from the container's cgroup limits on every
 read. A row written on a 32GB host and later run in a 4GB container must be
 bounded by the 4GB; a stored ceiling would quietly authorise what the box can
 no longer hold.
 ## The seeded values
 Written out literally rather than imported from `worker_lanes.LANES`. A
 migration is a statement about one moment in the schema's history — if it
 imported the live defaults, changing them in 2027 would silently change what
 this 2026 revision does on a fresh database. The two are allowed to diverge
 afterwards, and that is correct: `LANES` supplies defaults for a lane added
 later, this file records what was seeded today.
    lane              slots  cap  enabled
    worker                1    4  yes
    scheduler             1    2  yes
    maintenance_long      1    2  yes
    ml                    0    1  NO
 One of each, per the operator (2026-09-22: *"that starting value should be one
 of each"*), and far below their own production numbers — worker 8 and ml 2 are
 tuned for their hardware and are not a sane first boot for a stranger.
 **ml ships at zero and disabled**, which is milestone 422 step 6's requirement
 arriving early: enabling the lane is what triggers the SigLIP download, and
 rule 164 permits a runtime fetch only for a feature that is "optional and
 clearly off". Seeding it on would make every fresh install reach HuggingFace.
 The caps start low on purpose. A cap that begins at the ceiling is a rubber
 stamp; starting at 4/2/2/1 means raising slots within the cap is ordinary and
 raising the cap is a deliberate act.
 ## Existing installs
 Nothing is migrated FROM. The `CELERY_QUEUES` / `CELERY_CONCURRENCY` env vars
 stay exactly as they are and remain the baseline each lane boots at; these
 rows are the adjustment applied on top (step 3). So this migration changes no
 behaviour on a running stack — it only makes the numbers storable.

 """worker_lane.autoscale — may this lane grow itself?
 Milestone 422 step 7. One boolean, defaulting FALSE on every existing row and
 on every new one.
 ## Why the default is false and not "sensible"
 This is the only part of the milestone that acts without anyone watching. The
 manual dial (step 4) and the reconcile (step 3) both do exactly what someone
 asked for; this one decides. Shipping it on would mean every install starts
 with a process that changes its own resource usage based on a heuristic tuned
 against nobody's workload.
 Off also makes the failure mode benign: if the signal is wrong, nothing
 happens until an operator opts a lane in, and they opted in while watching.
 ## Why per lane and not one global switch
 The lanes are not alike in what a slot costs. A `worker` slot is a process;
 an `ml` slot is another copy of a ~3.5GB model. A global switch would enable
 growth on a lane whose behaviour under load nobody has observed, and the one
 it would hurt most is the one whose cost is least visible.

 """worker_lane — one number: the cap. `slots`, `enabled` and `autoscale` go.
 Milestone 422, reshaped by the operator 2026-09-23:
    "auto should be always on, not a setting, so that idle instances quiet
    down when not running. the number that is visible and something the user
    can tweak and manage should be the cap itself the number of running
    workers is handled by the autoscaling function which is always on."
 ## What each dropped column was, and why it is not needed
 **`slots`** — how many workers the lane should run. That is a MEASUREMENT,
 not a preference: the autoscaler moves the live pool between one and the cap
 according to the backlog, and reads it back from the worker every minute.
 Storing it made it look like something to keep in agreement with the cap,
 which is exactly what the operator had to do.
 **`autoscale`** — whether the lane was allowed to size itself. It gated the
 mechanism behind a per-lane opt-in, so a lane nobody enabled simply never
 gave its slots back. Always on now, which is the only way "idle instances
 quiet down" can be true of an install nobody has configured.
 **`enabled`** — whether the lane consumes its queues. Derived from `cap > 0`.
 It and `slots = 0` were two spellings of one fact and were free to disagree;
 this migration picks the one an operator can see.
 ## Why the caps are rewritten rather than preserved
 The old defaults were 4 / 2 / 2 / 1, chosen when the number meant "the most
 you may raise SLOTS to" — a bound on a manual control, deliberately loose
 because moving within it was the ordinary act. The number now means "the most
 workers this lane may actually use", which is a different promise, and
 carrying the old figure over would silently quadruple the worker lane on
 every existing install at the moment this deploys.
 So every row is reset to the new defaults: **one for each required lane, zero
 for ML.** That loses whatever an operator had set — which is the honest
 trade, because what they set was an answer to a different question. The UI
 now tells a busy lane's operator to raise its cap, which is how the number
 gets back up on an install that needs it.
 ML at zero also keeps rule 164's carve-out intact: no consumers, so no model
 download until someone raises the cap.

 """service_seen — delete the roster rows the fixed code can no longer write.
 Operator, 2026-09-23: *"clean up the stale service_seen rows"*. They were not
 stale. They were PHANTOMS, written on purpose by code that identified a celery
 worker from the queues it was consuming.
 A lane at cap 0 has its consumers cancelled, so it answers `active_queues()`
 with an empty list. The roster grouped on that empty set, wrote it under the
 key `celery:` and rendered `role_display_name(())` as the display name — a row
 called **`Worker ()`**, reported as running, beside the real lane's row going
 stale because nothing updated it any more.
 `worker_lanes.lane_for_node` fixes the cause: a worker is attributed by its
 NODE NAME, which survives having no consumers. Nothing will write `celery:`
 again.
 ## Why a migration and not a retention sweep
 Lesson #4202: a guard that refuses to produce a bad value does not undo the
 bad value already stored. The row is the thing that has to change.
 And it must be deleted rather than aged out, because the roster deliberately
 NEVER forgets — *"anything that has run at least once stays listed, that is
 what lets a stopped one be noticed rather than simply vanishing"*. A row that
 merely goes quiet is exactly what the roster is for. Only a row that cannot
 correspond to anything real is safe to remove, and `celery:` is precisely
 that: the empty queue set, which no correctly-attributed worker can produce.
 ## What is deliberately NOT deleted
 **Celery rows with a real but unmatched queue set.** A deployment slicing
 `CELERY_QUEUES` differently is supported and its rows are true. It is not this
 migration's business to decide that somebody else's worker is obsolete.
 **Agent rows, including a possible `agent:agent` from a build that omitted
 `agent_id`.** Nothing here can tell an abandoned agent id from a second agent
 that is currently down, and deleting a real one would hide a genuinely dead
 GPU agent — the one thing the roster exists to show. If such a row is present
 it needs a person to look at it, not a migration guessing.

 """worker_lane_sample — where the sizing sweep leaves what it measured.
 Operator, 2026-09-23, on the System tab: *"there is a repull every time this
 page loads — is there a reason this info isn't being tracked in the
 background and stored in some way?"*
 `/api/system/workers` ran a full celery inspect on every call — four
 broadcasts on an eleven-second budget — and the page polls it every fifteen
 seconds. `size_worker_lanes` was already inspecting on a timer to decide pool
 sizes, computing exactly these numbers and discarding them. This table is
 where they land instead, and the endpoint becomes a plain read.
 ## Why a new table rather than columns on `worker_lane`
 `worker_lane` holds the one number an operator sets. Putting a measurement
 beside it is the mistake alembic 0105 undid: `slots` sat next to `slots_cap`,
 and a measurement next to a preference reads as a second preference.
 No backfill. A row appears when the sweep first runs (within its period), and
 until then the lane reads as not-yet-measured, which is true.

 A tick stopped after 20 contiguous already-have-it items. That is the right
 instinct and the wrong unit: a post edited three days after publication sits
 well below twenty seen items, so the walk turned around before reaching it. The
 walk now needs BOTH a run of seen items and a post older than this many days
 before it stops.
 A settings row rather than a constant (rule 25) because the right window is a

 builds for a fortnight, another never touches a post again. 0 turns the revisit
 off entirely and restores the pure count early-out.

 Operator, 2026-09-24: *"I don't want this to be manual that defeats the

 Confirm-only was right while every signal was circumstantial. Time proximity
 and a body that mentions Discord can never be more than suggestive, so asking
 was the honest response. A shared working name is different in kind: when the
 creator's own name for a piece appears in exactly these two posts and nowhere
 else in their library, there is nothing left for the operator to adjudicate,
 and asking is just a chore FC invented for them.
 Defaults ON, which is a real change of posture and deliberate. It only governs
 the conclusive band — weaker evidence still queues — and a link is a row the
 operator can dismiss, so the reversal is a click rather than a migration.

 ## Why this is a separate blueprint
 `system_activity` says in its own first line that it is read-only, and it
 answers a different question: its `/workers` is keyed on celery HOSTNAME and
 reports which nodes answered. That stays as it is — the existing
 SystemActivityTab consumes it.
 This is keyed on LANE, joins the stored cap to the live pool, and accepts
 writes. Two endpoints answering "which celery processes exist" and "how much
 work is each lane allowed to do" are not the same endpoint, and folding the
 second into the first would make a read-only module a write one.

    measurement the sizing pass owns, and `enabled` is `cap > 0`.
    ## The reply does not wait for the lane
    Operator, 2026-09-23: *"when the number is changed the change should be
    queued so that it isn't blocking of the webui or the system itself. we
    shouldn't have to wait for the validation live."*
    So the request does exactly one thing that can be slow — a row update —

    four `cancel_consumer` messages and a resize; lowering a cap is an
    `inspect` on an eleven-second budget. Both used to happen between the
    click and the response, with the stepper disabled the whole time.
    Nothing is lost by not waiting: the cap in the database is what the
    system obeys, the sizing pass re-reads it every minute, and the table
    polls, so the live columns catch up on their own. If the web process dies
    before the background task runs, that sweep is the backstop — which is
    the same guarantee the awaited version had, since a push could fail
    there too.

 """Celery beat that remembers when each job last ran — from task_run, not a file.
 Celery's default PersistentScheduler keeps its memory in a shelve file in the
 working directory. Nothing mounts that directory, so every container recreate
 forgets it, and a scheduler that remembers nothing seeds every entry with
 `last_run_at = now`: each job waits a FULL interval after startup. A daily job
 therefore needs 24 hours without a redeploy to fire. Since the one-container
 image (172e33d) every redeploy restarts beat, and on 2026-09-24 no daily or
 weekly job had run since the 21st (#4408).
 task_run already records every task that starts (celery_signals), indexed on
 (task_name, started_at DESC), and prune_task_runs keeps the newest row of each
 task however old it is. So on startup each entry takes its last_run_at from
 there:
  - a job that is overdue runs at once;
  - a job that is not due waits only the remainder of its interval;
  - a job that has never run is due now.
 Beat keeps last_run_at in memory from then on, as the default scheduler does;
 only the startup seed changes. If the database cannot be read, the entries keep

 """worker_lane — the most workers the operator will let each lane use.
 Milestone 422 step 1, reshaped 2026-09-23. One row per lane in
 `services/worker_lanes.LANES`, and ONE COLUMN an operator sets.
 ## Why there is only one number now
 There were three — `slots`, `slots_cap` and `autoscale` — because the manual
 dial was built first and the autoscaler arrived last, beside a control that
 already existed rather than in place of it.
 Operator: *"auto should be always on, not a setting, so that idle instances
 quiet down when not running. the number that is visible and something the
 user can tweak and manage should be the cap itself the number of running
 workers is handled by the autoscaling function which is always on."*
 So `slots` is gone. How many workers a lane is running right now is a
 MEASUREMENT — read live from the worker, moved by the autoscaler, never
 stored. Storing it made it look like a preference, which meant the operator
 had to keep two numbers in agreement and the autoscaler had to be told it was
 allowed to touch one of them.
 `autoscale` is gone for the same reason: it gated the mechanism behind a
 choice, and a lane nobody opted in simply never gave its slots back.
 `enabled` is gone too, and is now DERIVED: a cap of zero means no consumers.
 "Off" and "may use no workers" were two spellings of one fact, free to
 disagree.
 ## What remains
    1  <=  live pool  <=  slots_cap  <=  derived_ceiling
           (autoscaler)   (this row)     (computed)
 The floor is one PROCESS, not zero: billiard will not run an empty pool, and
 the parked process is what `add_consumer` lands on when the cap goes back up.
 The DERIVED CEILING is deliberately absent from this table. It is computed
 from the container's cgroup limits on every read, so a row written on a 32GB
 host and later run in a 4GB container is bounded by the 4GB — a stored
 ceiling would quietly authorise what the box can no longer hold.

 """worker_lane_sample — the last thing the sizing sweep measured about a lane.
 Milestone 422, 2026-09-23. A MEASUREMENT table, deliberately separate from
 `worker_lane`, which holds the one number an operator sets.
 ## Why this exists
 Operator, 2026-09-23, looking at the System tab: *"there is a repull every
 time this page loads — is there a reason this info isn't being tracked in the
 background and stored in some way?"*
 There was not a good one. `/api/system/workers` ran a full celery inspect —
 four broadcast round trips on an eleven-second budget — on every call, and
 the page polls it every fifteen seconds. Meanwhile `size_worker_lanes` was
 already inspecting on a timer to decide pool sizes, computing exactly these
 numbers, using them, and throwing them away. The browser then asked the
 broker for them again.
 So the sweep writes what it saw here, and the endpoint reads this table. The
 request path makes no broker call at all any more.
 ## Why NOT columns on `worker_lane`
 Because that is the mistake this milestone already made once and undid. That
 table used to carry `slots` — how many workers were running — beside
 `slots_cap`, and a measurement sitting next to a preference reads as a second
 preference: the operator had to keep two numbers in agreement, and the
 autoscaler had to be granted permission to move one of them.
 The distinction is the whole design, so it is a table boundary. Nothing an
 operator sets lives here; nothing here is ever an input to a decision about
 what they wanted.
 ## Freshness is a value, not an assumption
 `measured_at` is returned to the UI, which says how old the reading is rather
 than implying it is live. A sample is a fact about a moment, and a page that
 presents a one-minute-old number as current is how an operator ends up
 mistrusting the whole surface.

 """Emit a supervisord config for the single-container layout.
 Milestone 422 step 5. Writes to stdout; `entrypoint.sh all` redirects it to a
 file and execs supervisord against it.
 ## Why this is generated and not a checked-in .conf
 A static config would spell out each lane's `-Q` list, and that would be a
 FIFTH hand-kept copy of the queue names — after `celery_app.task_routes`, and
 the three collapsed in steps 1, 2 and 4 (`service_roster.ROLE_NAMES`,
 `system_activity._QUEUE_NAMES`, and the Activity filter). Every one of those
 had already drifted by the time it was found.
 Generating from `worker_lanes.LANES` makes a stronger guarantee than "they
 match today": the processes this container runs and the lanes the application
 believes in are the same list, so a lane added to `LANES` gets a process
 without anyone remembering to add one, and a queue can never end up with no
 consumer because a config file was missed.
 ## Why supervisord
 It is one pip dependency on an image that is already Python, and it does the
 four things this needs without being clever: restart a program that exits,
 give each one its OWN stop timeout, signal the process GROUP rather than the
 leader, and put every program's output on one stdout.
 The process-group part is not a detail. Celery's prefork pool forks children,
 and a TERM delivered only to the parent leaves them running — which is how a
 "graceful" shutdown turns into orphaned workers holding tasks. `stopasgroup`
 and `killasgroup` are both set for every program.
 s6-overlay is the other standard answer and would work; it needs a build-time
 download and a second mental model, and its advantage (correct PID-1 signal
 and zombie handling) is available here from `init: true` in compose, which
 puts tini in front of supervisord. Neither choice reaches the application —
 nothing in FC talks to the supervisor — so this is reversible without touching
 a line of product code.
 ## Every lane, including ml
 Step 6 merged the images, so this one carries torch and the ML requirements
 and the `ml` lane gets a program like any other. It starts at one slot with
 its consumers CANCELLED — `enabled=false` in the seeded settings — so it
 holds a process and no model. That matters: `add_consumer` needs a running
 worker to reach, and without one the UI switch would have nothing to switch.
 Nothing is downloaded by starting it. The model fetch is enqueued when the
 lane is enabled, which is what lets rule 164 permit a runtime fetch at all.

 """The container's healthcheck. Picks the right check from the role it runs.
 Exit 0 healthy, non-zero unhealthy.
 ## Why this is in the IMAGE and not in every compose file
 Because the image is the only thing that knows what it is running. A
 deployment had to declare a healthcheck per service, which meant every
 compose file, stack file and README repeated the same knowledge:
    web         -> curl /api/health
    worker      -> celery inspect ping -d celery@$HOSTNAME
    all         -> both, for every lane
 Three checks, written out by hand, once per service, in every file anyone
 ever wrote — and none of them wrong until a role changed. Operator, 2026-09-23:
 *"why isn't the healthcheck built into the image or base on what command runs
 if one is passed in."* There was no reason. The role is already a fact the
 container holds; asking the deployment to restate it is the same duplication
 the lane table exists to remove one level down.
 So `entrypoint.sh` records the role it started, the Dockerfile declares ONE
 `HEALTHCHECK` that runs this, and a stack file says nothing at all. Declaring
 one anyway still works — docker lets a service override the image's — which
 is the escape hatch for a deployment that genuinely wants something else.
 ## What each role is asked
 * **web** — hypercorn answers `/api/health`. No database: the endpoint is a
  no-DB 200 that proves the app booted and is serving after `alembic upgrade
  head`, which is what a rolling deploy needs to know.
 * **worker / scheduler / ml-worker** — THIS container's celery node answers a
  ping over the broker. Not "some worker answered": the node name is pinned
  to this container, or a healthy sibling would keep a dead one looking alive.
 * **all** — both halves, for every lane in the table. The failure mode
  consolidation creates is that docker can no longer see the lanes as
  separate services, so a web-only check reports a healthy container with
  every worker dead.
 * **shell / alembic / anything else** — nothing to check. These are one-shot
  or interactive; a liveness probe on them has no meaning, so it passes
  rather than inventing a verdict.
 ## An unrecorded role passes rather than failing
 If the role file is missing, the entrypoint did not run — someone used
 `--entrypoint` or ran a bare command. That is a debugging shape, and a
 healthcheck that cannot tell what it is looking at must not assert that the
 thing is broken (snippet #3969: an unswept read is not a verdict). It says so
 on stdout and exits 0.

 """Block until Postgres and Redis accept connections. Exit 0 ready, 1 timed out.
 ## Why the container has to do this itself
 Compose has `depends_on: {condition: service_healthy}`, and **Swarm ignores
 it**. `docker stack deploy` has no ordering primitive at all: every service in
 the stack starts at once, so FabledCurator races Postgres on every cold
 deploy and always has.
 The multi-service stack hid how sharp that is. `web` ran `alembic upgrade
 head`, failed against a Postgres that was still doing `initdb`, and the task
 died — but Swarm restarts a failed task forever, so the service came up a few
 seconds later and nobody saw a problem worth naming.
 Consolidation removes that safety net. supervisord gives each program
 `startretries=3`, so a web program that fails three times in the first
 seconds goes FATAL and **stays** FATAL: supervisord keeps running, the
 container keeps running, and the application never starts. The healthcheck
 catches it — but as a container that is permanently unhealthy for a reason
 that has nothing to do with the image, on a stack whose database simply took
 twenty seconds to initialise.
 Operator, 2026-09-23: *"it's a single container that need to connect
 successfully to redis and postgres before starting work shouldn't that simply
 be a check (with retries) at the start of the container."* Yes.
 ## A TCP connect, not a query
 The same probe `build.yml`'s integration lane and the build smoke already use.
 It answers the question that is actually being asked — is something listening
 — and it cannot fail for a reason that retrying will never fix.
 A real query would be a stronger readiness signal and a worse gate: a wrong
 password or a missing database is not a transient condition, and a loop that
 waits for one to heal turns a five-second misconfiguration into a two-minute
 timeout with a misleading message. Those belong to alembic, which runs
 seconds later and says exactly what is wrong.
 The Postgres image is well behaved here: during `initdb` it serves on a unix
 socket only and opens TCP when it is ready for clients, so the connect is a
 good proxy for "ready" rather than merely "process exists".

  - `GET /channels/{id}/messages?limit=100&before=<last id>`, newest first,
    stopping on a short page. Message types {0, 19, 21} only.
  - The walk: a text/news channel's own messages then its threads, a forum's
    threads, a category's children, a server's text/news/forum channels.
  - Files: attachments, then embeds of type image/gifv/video (FC configures

    carry an image), then forwarded `message_snapshots`, numbered from 1 across
    the lot — the `num` in `{date}_{message_id}_{num}_{filename}`.
  - Text: `content`, rich-embed author/title/description/fields/footer, poll.
 Two deliberate departures, both about the walk order, neither about content:
  - Threads are walked newest-CREATED first (by id), not by last-message time.
    A backfill resumes from a checkpointed channel; last-message order shifts
    between chunks whenever someone posts, which can move an unwalked thread
    above the resume point and skip it. Creation order only ever grows at the
    front, where the next tick finds it.
  - A 403 on a thread or a nested channel skips that feed instead of failing
    the walk. gallery-dl skips only nested channels; one private thread the
    token cannot read would otherwise stop every channel after it.

 """Native Discord media downloader — the Discord counterpart to
 subscribestar_downloader.
 Writes files exactly where gallery-dl wrote them, so a cutover finds every
 existing file on disk (`skipped_disk`) instead of fetching it again:
    <images>/<artist>/discord/<channel>/<YYYYMMDD>_<message_id>_<NN>_<name>.<ext>
 That is what FC's gallery-dl config produced (directory `{channel}`, filename
 `{date:%Y%m%d}_{message_id}_{num:>02}_{filename}.{extension}`, under the
 per-source base directory `<images>/<artist>/<platform>`), retired from that
 config once Discord moved here; tests/test_discord_naming.py pins the match
 against a real gallery-dl sidecar. The name is cleaned the way gallery-dl cleans it
 on Linux — `/` becomes `_` and control characters are removed, nothing else
 (`path-restrict: auto`, `path-remove` defaults). It is NOT `sanitize_segment`,
 whose Windows set would turn a `:` in a channel or file name into `_` and miss
 the file gallery-dl wrote.
 Post-first (rule 120): each file gets a minimal sidecar named like it minus the
 extension (what `find_sidecar` pairs first), and the message itself gets one
 record, `<YYYYMMDD>_<message_id>_post.json`, carrying gallery-dl's metadata keys
 — `message_id` for the post id, `server_id`/`channel_id` for the permalink,
 `message` for the body, `date` — so `parse_sidecar` reads it exactly as it read
 the gallery-dl sidecars. Neither file carries an `id` or `post_id` key: both
 outrank `message_id` in the post-id chain (`platforms.base`).
 PURE: no DB; the seen-skip is an injected predicate.

 # Operator, 2026-09-24, on a feed of "Grouped from 1 Discord message" cards:
 # *"the groups are still single image even when they can clearly be seen as
 # group"*. 665 of Yellowroom's 714 drops were one message.
 #
 # Both paths above join on cosine distance to the group's SEED, and the stages
 # of one piece fail it: `svtt_wip4` did not join `svtt_wip3` from the day
 # before. A creator trickles a piece out as sketch -> wip -> wip -> release, and
 # each stage is nearest to the one before it, not to the first.
 #
 # Measured on artist 8 before any of this was written (#4390 log):
 #
 # * phash cannot see it. Stages of one piece sit 68-134 bits apart; unrelated
 #   pieces by the same artist sit at a median of 126, p5 110. Lesson #4400.
 # * The embedding's NEAREST neighbour can. Every stage of three real trickles
 #   had a sibling stage as its single nearest image in the artist's whole
 #   library, while siblings further along ranked 40-100 — which is exactly why
 #   seed distance fails. Negative control over all 137 recent Discord images:
 #   where the nearest neighbour was another message within 7 days, the two
 #   carried the same working name 53 times out of 53. Disagreements start past
 #   7 days.
 # * The working name sees it directly, when there is one.
 #
 # So a later drop merges into an earlier one when the two are within
 # `discord_group_close_after_hours` of each other (168h — the measured 7 days)
 # AND either they share a gated LEADING working name, or one's image has the
 # other's image as its nearest neighbour. A drop reaching SEVERAL earlier drops
 # pulls them all together — unless two of them are named as different pieces,
 # in which case nothing moves (see `_compatible`): leaving a drop alone is
 # recoverable, a wrong merge asserts that unrelated art belongs together.
 #
 # Chaining is permitted here and was forbidden above, deliberately. The seed
 # rule exists because tiny steps can drift from one piece to another; the
 # measured precision of nearest-neighbour inside 7 days is what bounds drift
 # for this route, and each link is between neighbours in time, never across a
 # quiet week.
 # How many unchecked drops one sweep examines per source. A first run over an
 # established library drains over successive sweeps, oldest first, rather than
 # issuing one nearest-neighbour query per image of the whole history at once.

 """Native Discord ingester — the Discord ADAPTER over `ingest_core.Ingester`.
 Thin counterpart to subscribestar_ingester (milestone 428). The walk's modes,
 both ledgers, cursor checkpointing and the post-first capture live in the core;
 this wires in the Discord client, downloader, ledger models and key.
 Two things differ from the cookie platforms:
  - Discord authenticates with a user TOKEN, so `auth_token` is the credential
    here rather than an argument accepted and ignored.
  - The body canary is off. It fails a walk whose first 30+ captured posts all
    came back without text, on the theory that a creator nearly always writes
    something; a Discord drop is routinely files and nothing else, so on
    Discord that is an ordinary backfill, not a broken parser.
 `campaign_id` is the source URL (a server, channel, thread or category link).
 FC runs on a plain-HTTP homelab; nothing here uses a secure-context Web API.

 # of gallery-dl's extractor. What gallery-dl's discord extractor actually emits
 # for an attachment: `channel` is a plain STRING (the channel's name), the
 # message is `message_id`, the attachment's position in it is `num`, and there
 # is NO `id` key at all.
 #
 # The previous patterns asked for `{channel[name]}` and `{id}`. Both render as
 # "None", so every Discord download since the platform was added landed in a
 # directory called `None` as `<date>_None_<original name>`. Worse, the sidecar was
 # named `{filename}.json` — the attachment's ORIGINAL name — which (a) `find_
 # sidecar` can never pair with `<date>_None_<name>.png`, so no Discord file ever
 # got a Post or a post date, and (b) collides: every `image.png` in a channel
 # overwrote the same `image.json`, so the one sidecar that survived described
 # whichever message happened to be written last.
 #
 # The fix names the sidecar EXACTLY like the media minus its extension, so
 # `find_sidecar`'s first candidate (`media.with_suffix(".json")`) is the match
 # and the name is unique per attachment. tests/test_gallery_dl_naming.py renders
 # these patterns against a sanitized copy of the real sidecar, so a key that

    prototypes stacked, and `seg` their per-character start offsets into it.
    ## Why this is batched, and why that is safe
    `scheduled_ccip_auto_apply` did this one image at a time — a `(nq, dim) @
    (dim, total)` product per image, over every image in the library on every

    soft limit on the operator's instance.
    Batching changes no arithmetic. The score a character gets for an image is
    a max over that image's figures AND over that character's prototypes, and
    max does not care in what order or grouping it is taken — so reducing the
    prototype axis first (per row, inside a block) and the figure axis after
    (per image, across blocks) gives exactly what the per-image loop gave.
    That equivalence is what `test_char_maxima_matches_the_per_image_loop`
    pins, against the naive form written out longhand.
    Blocked by ROWS rather than done in one product, because the full score
    matrix is (all figures in the chunk x every prototype) and that grows with
    the library on both axes. The block bound is on elements, so the memory

+## Signals, and the one deliberately NOT built
 CIRCUMSTANTIAL evidence says two things happened near each other. It is
 additive, weighted, and no single one of its signals may reach the threshold:
 1. **Time proximity.** The Patreon post exists in order to announce the drop,
   so the two are minutes-to-hours apart. Nearly free, and strong.
 2. **The post says so.** These announcements routinely name Discord or carry
   an invite link, which is close to a declaration.
 3. **A shared marker.** The creator's own tie-back — `🍈🍈` in the Patreon
   title and `@everyone 🍈 🍈` in the Discord message — gated on how rare that
   marker is in THIS artist's posts, because a habitual emoji is punctuation.

+   1 and 2 are shown to be insufficient against the operator's actual artists.
   Nothing here should be read as evidence it is unnecessary; it is deferred,
   and the thing that would justify it is an empty review queue on a pair the
   operator can see with their own eyes.

   proximity scores at 0.005.
 5. **The drop contains the teaser's image.** Rare, and near-certain when it
   happens. It is the one signal needing no cooperation from the creator: it
   works on a teaser called `Screenshot 2026-08-13`, and on a creator whose
   two platforms share no naming convention.
 ## The one deliberately NOT built
 **Crop-to-source matching stays held, and now for a measured reason rather
 than a cautious one.**
 It was deferred until the cheap signals could be shown insufficient. They can:
 of artist 8's 27 teasers with a drop inside a day, 11 still go unlinked, and
 five of those are screenshot teasers carrying no working name at all.
 So it was tried, on those exact pairs. Every teaser image was correlated
 against every window of every nearby drop image at five scales, with the pairs
 the working name independently confirms as ground truth and unrelated
 same-artist posts a month away as a control. **It does not separate.** True
 pairs score as low as 0.401 while the control reaches 0.605 — the two
 distributions overlap, and no threshold divides them.
 The reason is the reason the naive version was rejected in the first place,
 and it turns out to apply just as hard to the sophisticated one: one artist's
 work is stylistically homogeneous, so any whole-image comparison between two
 of their pieces is high whether or not it is the same piece. Signal 5 above is
 what survived that experiment — it asks a narrower question ("is this the same
 image") that the measurement shows is answerable, instead of a broader one
 ("is this a crop of that") that it shows is not.

 """The creator's own working name for a piece, recovered from a filename.
 Milestone 388. Pure functions, no DB and no ML — the whole point is that this
 signal is free.
 ## What this is for
 Two of the operator's artists post a censored or cropped teaser on Patreon and
 the real release in their Discord. Matching those by IMAGE is the pair a
 whole-image comparison handles worst: the teaser is a crop with a censor bar,
 which is exactly the local edit that moves a perceptual hash and blurs a
 semantic embedding.
 But the creator names both exports after the same internal working title, and
 that name survives into both platforms untouched. Measured on the live instance
 2026-09-24, artist 8:
    01_((0-k           <->  0-k_base          (1.3h apart)
    01_680LC           <->  680LC_Border      (21.0h apart)
    01_cnni18x         <->  cnni18x           (21.5h apart)
 Three pairs, no false positives, and **two of them are 21 hours apart** — far
 enough that time proximity scores them ~0.10 and could never propose them. The
 naming signal is orthogonal to the timing one: each finds pairs the other
 cannot, which is why both are kept rather than one being tuned to cover both.
 ## Why a filename and not a perceptual hash
 A shared working-name token is IDENTITY evidence — `680lc` appearing on both
 platforms is not a coincidence. Proximity is CIRCUMSTANTIAL: it says two things
 happened near each other, never that they are the same thing. The distinction
 drives the weighting in `post_association_service`, and it is why a rare enough
 token is allowed to carry a proposal on its own while no amount of circumstance
 is.
 ## The one false-positive class found, and why the fix is shaped this way
 A first pass matched `01_Screenshot 2026-08-13 000004` to
 `Screenshot_2026-08-13_032144` on the token `2026-08-13`, twice.
 A screenshot filename is a camera artifact. It carries no working name, and the
 date inside it collides across platforms on the same day BY CONSTRUCTION — the
 teaser and the release are posted the same day, so their screenshot names
 always share a date token. That is a signal that fires precisely when it is
 least informative.
 So a filename with no working name contributes NOTHING, rather than the
 plausible-looking date match it could be squeezed for. Re-run with that rule:
 the same three true pairs, zero false. Half of this creator's recent teasers
 are screenshots, and those pairs are simply out of this signal's reach — which
 is where crop-to-source matching earns its cost, and nowhere else.

 """The unified post card — a teaser shows what it points at (#4402, #4401).
 Milestone 388. A Patreon teaser is a POINTER: a cropped, censored fragment
 whose job is to say "the full set is in Discord". Until this module the card
 rendered the fragment and a text link, and the reader had to make the join FC
 had already made.
 Operator, 2026-09-24: *"the teaser from the patreon post doesn't show the items
 that it's supposed to reference so I'm trying to unify the teaser post with the
 content it's meant to draw attention to."*
 ## A reference, never an absorption
 `discord_grouping` folds chat messages into a synthetic post by transferring
 ownership (`absorbed_by_post_id`). That is the wrong primitive here, and the
 operator said so directly: *"the nested items on the unified post are a
 duplicate or reference of existing content. that's why they can show similar
 items and not erase or invalidate the way the discord items landed."*
 So nothing here writes. The Discord posts keep their own rows, dates and
 places in the feed; the teaser's card DISPLAYS them. That is also what makes
 reaching back for older variants safe at all: a wrong reference shows one
 extra thumbnail in one place, where a wrong regrouping would move content.
 ## What a teaser references
 1. The Discord drops a `linked` PostAssociation joins it to (#4392) — accepted
   by the operator, or linked by FC on a conclusive name match.
 2. The rest of that piece's VARIANT FAMILY (#4401): the wips, alts and censor
   passes a creator trickles out under one working name, days or weeks apart.
 Families are found by the creator's LEADING working name, not by any shared
 token and not by image similarity — see `post_naming.leading_name` for the
 measurement, and lesson #4400 for why a whole-image comparison between two
 works by one artist cannot separate "same piece" from "same artist".

 """Read and change a lane's live pool, over the broker.
 Milestone 422 step 2. The half of the milestone that does something.
 ## No docker socket is involved, and that is the point
 Milestone 365 put "acting on the state" out of scope because restarting a
 dead worker needs a docker socket the web container deliberately does not
 have. That is true of RESTARTING a container. It is not true of changing how
 much work a RUNNING worker does: celery's remote control sends a message over
 the broker and the worker resizes its own pool. Same Redis the app already
 uses, no new privilege, no new surface.
    pool_grow / pool_shrink   how many slots a lane runs
    add_consumer / cancel_consumer   whether it consumes its queues at all
 The operator ruled the socket out independently (2026-09-22: *"this feature
 is a very invasive idea in my mind and I'd like to avoid it"*), and nothing
 here raises the question.
 ## The setting is PER PROCESS, not per lane total
 `pool_grow(n, destination=[...])` adds n slots to EACH destination it names.
 While the stack still runs several containers per lane — the operator's
 production `worker` is `replicas: 2` — a single delta applied to a lane's
 total would be wrong for every replica.
 So `slots` means what `CELERY_CONCURRENCY` means: the pool size of one
 process. The reconcile below drives EACH replica to that number
 independently, computing its own delta from that replica's current pool, so
 replicas that have drifted apart (one restarted, one was grown) converge
 rather than being moved in lockstep from a shared baseline.
 After step 5 there is one process per lane and the distinction disappears.
 It matters now, and getting it wrong now would be invisible — the totals
 would simply be double what the UI claimed.
 ## Why reserved() is read alongside the queue depth
 Celery PREFETCHES: a worker pulls more messages than it can run and holds
 them in memory. Those have already left the Redis list, so `LLEN` — which is
 what `/api/system/activity/queues` reports — can read 0 while thirty tasks
 are waiting inside a worker. Any judgement about backlog that uses only LLEN
 under-reports, which matters for the UI and is disqualifying for step 7's
 autoscaler.

    Four broadcast round trips on an eleven-second budget, on a page that
    polls every fifteen seconds. Operator, 2026-09-23: *"there is a repull
    every time this page loads — is there a reason this info isn't being
    tracked in the background and stored in some way?"*
    There was one, and it had expired. The docstring here used to say the
    endpoint was deliberately uncached because *"this is the surface an
    operator watches while dragging a stepper, and a cached reply would show
    them the value from before their own change"*. True while a cap change
    refetched the table — and that refetch is exactly what was removed in
    `1353d34`, so the UI now patches its own row from the write's reply and
    nothing depends on this being live.
    Meanwhile `size_worker_lanes` was already inspecting on a timer to decide
    pool sizes: the same numbers, computed, used, and discarded, while the
    browser asked the broker for them again four times a minute.
    So the sweep writes `worker_lane_sample` and this reads it. The reading is
    up to `SWEEP_PERIOD_SECONDS` old, and `measured_at` travels with it so the
    UI can say so rather than implying it is current.
    `pending` is still the honest backlog — depth PLUS reserved — because
    celery prefetches and LLEN alone reads 0 while a worker holds tasks in
    memory.

    to do — so the sizing pass spends it on its next tick if there is work.

    AT ALL, which is the difference between a control that answers instantly
    and one that takes ten seconds. Keyed on the previous cap rather than on

 # the next tick — sooner than the five-minute reconcile managed, and without a
 # second sweep that could disagree with this one.

 # counts what celery has prefetched into worker memory — one task, one slot.
 #
 # Growth is IMMEDIATE and shrink is one slot per tick, deliberately asymmetric.
 # A backlog of four thousand should not take an hour to reach the cap, and a
 # lane that idles for one minute should not drop every process it has: the
 # cost of being one slot too large for a minute is a sleeping process, and the

 """The worker lanes: what they are, and how many slots each may be given.
 Milestone 422 step 1. This module is the ONE place that knows the lane set;
 `models/worker_lane.py` holds only what the operator can change about them.
 ## Why the queues are here and not in the table
 A lane's queue set is not a preference — it is decided by `celery_app.py`'s
 `task_routes`, which is what puts a backup on `maintenance_long` and a
 thumbnail on `thumbnail`. An operator cannot move a task to another lane, so
 storing the queues as settings would create a row that can disagree with the
 routing table, and nothing would notice until a queue had no consumer.
 So: queues and display names are code, slots and caps are data. The table
 stores three numbers and a flag, and nothing that could contradict celery.
 This also collapses a duplicate rather than adding one.
 `service_roster.ROLE_NAMES` was a second copy of "queue set -> the name an
 operator recognises", and it had already drifted: `maintenance_long` is a
 live lane with four task routes pointing at it, and the roster did not know
 its name, so the System tab rendered it as `Worker (maintenance_long)`. That
 map is now derived from `LANES` below, so a lane added here is named
 everywhere at once.
 ## Why the ceiling is derived rather than configured
 Consolidating the stack into one container (step 5) widens the OOM blast
 radius: today an ml-worker that exhausts memory is killed by Docker on its
 own, and web keeps serving. In one container the kernel picks a victim from
 the whole cgroup, and it may pick hypercorn — so a tagging task can take the
 UI down with it, on exactly the modest hardware least able to spare the
 memory.
 Operator, 2026-09-22: *"ram isn't an issue for me but some users might run
 this on weaker hardware and I don't want it to kill their servers."*
 So the maximum is computed from what the container actually has, and the
 operator's own `slots_cap` must fit under it. Three numbers, not two, and the
 ordering is the point:
    slots  <=  slots_cap  <=  derived_ceiling
    (live)     (operator)     (this module)
 The operator can always lower their cap. They cannot raise it past what the
 box can hold. The derived ceiling is never stored — a row that outlived a
 change in container limits must not carry a stale one.

    no lane at all.
    Both the roster and `inspect_lanes_sync` used to map a worker to its lane
    through `active_queues()`. That is exact while the lane is running and
    useless the moment it is not: a lane at cap 0 has its consumers cancelled,
    so it answers the broadcast with an EMPTY queue list, matches no lane, and
    is dropped. Three things followed, and the operator saw all three at once
    on 2026-09-23:
    1. The lanes table showed the lane as **not answering** — which is the
       signal for a crashed worker, not for one the operator turned off.
    2. The roster grew a phantom row called **`Worker ()`**, the empty queue
       set rendered as a display name, "running" beside the real lane's row
       going stale.
    3. **The container went unhealthy.** `healthcheck._lanes_ok` requires
       every lane in the table to be present, and its docstring asserted the
       opposite of what the code did — *"a disabled lane still runs its
       process with its consumers cancelled, so it answers inspect and is
       healthy"*. It answers; it is not attributed. ML ships at cap 0, so a
       fresh install would have been permanently unhealthy, and Swarm
       restarts an unhealthy task forever.
    The node name survives all of that: `gen_supervisord` sets
    `CELERY_NODENAME={lane.name}` per program and the entrypoint passes it to
    `celery -n`, so the identity travels with the PROCESS rather than with
    what it happens to be doing. Falls back to the queue set for a deployment

    ONE sweep, replacing `reconcile_worker_lanes` and `autoscale_worker_lanes`
    (2026-09-23). They were two enforcers over one number: the reconcile drove
    the pool to a stored `slots`, the autoscaler moved it away from that same
    value, and most of the autoscaler's design existed to keep the reconcile
    from undoing its work. Deleting the stored number deletes the conflict.
    It still does what the reconcile existed for. `pool_grow` is not durable —
    a worker restarted by its supervisor comes back at its ENV concurrency,
    silently below what the lane should run — and this reads the LIVE pool
    every minute, so that worker is corrected on the next tick rather than
    after five.
    Returns every lane's outcome INCLUDING the ones it held, each with a
    reason. A pass that only speaks when it acts cannot be debugged on the day
    it does not.
    ## It is also the only thing that MEASURES, since 2026-09-23
    It always inspected the broker to decide pool sizes, and then threw the
    reading away — while `/api/system/workers` ran the same inspect on every
    page load and the System tab polls it four times a minute. Operator:
    *"there is a repull every time this page loads — is there a reason this
    info isn't being tracked in the background and stored in some way?"*
    So one inspect now feeds three things: the sizing decision, the stored
    sample the System tab reads, and the celery roster. No request path
    touches the broker any more.
    Order matters. The sample is stored BEFORE the roster refresh, because
    that refresh does its own broadcast and a broker that has just started
    failing must not cost us the reading we already have.

 # ONE container, with Postgres and Redis beside it. How much work each lane
 # does is then a dial in the web UI (Settings -> Activity -> Worker lanes),
 # live, with no compose edit and no restart.
 #
 # THE MULTI-SERVICE STACK IS NOT REPLACED. `docker-compose.yml` still runs the
 # five app services separately and is the right shape for a Swarm deployment
 # spread across hosts, where per-service rolling rollback and placement
 # constraints matter. This file is the adopter path: one box, one command.
 #
 # What consolidating costs, stated here rather than discovered later:
 #   - Everything shares one host, so there is no spreading work across nodes.
 #   - Rollback is all-or-nothing; there is no rolling back `web` alone.
 #   - One stop timeout for the whole container, sized to the slowest lane.
 #
 # NOT a cost, recorded so it is not rediscovered and raised again: the
 # multi-service stack mounts /images:ro on ml-worker and one container cannot

 # Celery's default node name is `celery@<hostname>`, and in the single-
 # container layout all four lanes share one hostname — so all four registered
 # as the SAME node. celery's own words for it, observed on run 7319:
 #
 #   DuplicateNodenameWarning: Received multiple replies from node name:
 #   celery@72adc5b706a7
 #
 # `inspect` then collapses four replies into one dict key and the last one
 # wins, so three lanes read as absent and WHICH three varies per call:
 #
 #   lanes not answering: maintenance_long, ml, worker
 #   lanes not answering: maintenance_long, scheduler, worker
 #
 # That is fatal twice over. The composite healthcheck can never pass, so the
 # container is permanently unhealthy; and `pool_grow(destination=[hostname])`
 # addresses a lane BY that name, so the UI dial and the autoscaler would have
 # resized whichever lane happened to answer rather than the one asked for.
 #
 # The generated supervisord config sets this per lane. Unset — which is every
 # service in the multi-service stack — it falls back to `celery`, exactly
 # celery's own default, so `celery@$HOSTNAME` healthchecks there still work.
 : "${CELERY_NODENAME:=celery}"
 # RECORD THE ROLE, for the image's own HEALTHCHECK to read.
 #
 # The container is the only thing that knows what it was asked to run, and
 # before this every compose and stack file had to restate it as a healthcheck
 # of its own. The Dockerfile now declares one check that dispatches on this.
 #
 # Written ONCE, by the outermost invocation. The `all` role starts the other
 # roles through this same script under supervisord, and those children must
 # not overwrite the container's role with their own — a lane starting would
 # turn the composite check into a web-only one, silently. FC_ROLE is exported,
 # so a child sees it set and skips.
 #
 # Best effort: a read-only /tmp is not a reason to refuse to boot. The
 # healthcheck treats a missing file as "nothing to check" rather than as a
 # failure, for the same reason.

 # WAIT FOR POSTGRES AND REDIS before doing anything that needs them.
 #
 # Swarm has no ordering primitive — it ignores `depends_on` entirely — so
 # every service in a stack starts at once and this container races its own
 # database on every cold deploy.
 #
 # The multi-service stack hid how sharp that is: a `web` task that failed
 # `alembic upgrade head` against a still-initialising Postgres simply died,
 # and Swarm restarted it until it worked. Consolidation removes that. Each
 # supervisord program gets `startretries=3`, so three quick failures put the
 # program in FATAL and leave it there — supervisord keeps running, the
 # container keeps running, and the application never starts. It would present
 # as a permanently unhealthy container whose image was fine and whose
 # database merely took twenty seconds to come up.
 #
 # Skipped for `shell`, which exists precisely for the case where something
 # else is broken and you want a prompt rather than a gate.
