Release PR (dev -> release)

Merging this deploys to production (pfv-bms restarts if packages/** or configuration.yaml changed).

Gate checklist (branch protection enforces the mechanical parts)

• CI green on the head commit (yamllint + secret scan + SDLC suite) — 78a9258 success
• Adversarial pass: watchdog gate fails CLOSED to logbook-only if input_datetime is missing (no push); smoothing degrades to 'no alert' only if filter sensor absent (watchdog covers staleness); runtime-low map defaults to APC status if unmapped; #790 emits text only — no execution wiring exists
• post-deploy validation (#778) runs on restart — expected changes: 2 new input_booleans (shutdown armed OFF / dry-run ON), 2 new input_datetime (watchdog last-notify, shutdown last-page), 4 new filter sensors (*_smoothed), 1 new automation (UPS shutdown plan), 1 input_datetime in configuration.yaml

Reviewer (founder)

• Diff reviewed
• Approve to release

Expected entity/automation changes: +4 filter sensors (tsys1_rack/tsys6_drac/tsys7_drac/garage — smoothed, feed existing trend sensors); +automation pfv_ups_shutdown_plan (dry-run pages only); +inputs listed above; runtime-low now also watches Tripp Lite; SENSOR WATCHDOG pushes only when sensors are dead (4h re-page cap)

Rollback: git revert 7e13612/c4ebb8a/78a9258 on dev, re-PR; or push previous release sha (83b32d5) directly.

Ticket meat: #344 note 4966 · #790 note 4970

Reopened from #2 under the vptechops working identity (previous PR was authored by reachableceo and could not be founder-approved). Commit SHAs 7e13612..bcbdeb7 unchanged — authored pre-switch; all future commits will be vptechops-authored. Cross-identity agent review per the One Big Lane ruling: this session performed the adversarial pass; formal second-agent review pending the OAM lane.

fix(plant): alert hygiene — watchdog gate, trend smoothing, UPS [#344] ... 7e13612752

Three live-fire defects: unconditional 30-min watchdog page, tsys6 flap
false-positive, Tripp Lite runtime-low gap. TDD: 4 new regression tests.
On-box ha core check passed before commit.

feat(ups): #455 shutdown chain — dry-run plan pages, dual-gate arm [#790] ... c4ebb8aae7

Plan data from live qm inventory (7 hosts). Execution wiring deferred
until PVE API tokens + founder ordering review. 4 regression tests.

fix(plant): review-gate fixes — level-based UPS re-polls, test hardening [#790 #344] ... d18e467484

Adversarial review verdict FAIL -> addressed: runtime-low + shutdown
chain re-poll /5 min (edge-crossing could miss a page mid-outage);
suppression stamp set after notify; plan body names all 7 hosts
explicitly; test fixes (pipefail SIGPIPE, comment-only assertion).
Reviewer P1 'tripp_lite slug' refuted with live entity registry
evidence (entity_id derives from name; sensor exists, 8f48730 aligned).
On-box ha core check passed with the changed files.

Review thread: #3

Agent review gate (hostile pass) — verdict was FAIL; findings dispositioned:

[P1] 'tripp_lite slug does not exist' — REFUTED with live evidence. entity_id derives from the sensor's name: ("PFV Tripp Lite runtime minutes"), not its unique_id (pfv_triplite_runtime_minutes). Verified against the live entity registry: sensor.pfv_tripp_lite_runtime_minutes exists and reports (and the post-deploy validation list watches it — a missing entity pages loudly). Dashboards were aligned to this exact slug in 8f48730. No change.

[P1] edge-only numeric_state + unknown-suppression can miss a page for a whole discharge — ACCEPTED, FIXED (d18e467): both the runtime-low alert and the #790 chain now add a time_pattern /5 level re-check — during a real outage the page repeats every 5 minutes (escalation ladder) and a threshold-crossing blip or HA restart mid-outage can no longer silence it. Status-unavailable suppression is deliberate; UPS COMMS LOST covers that failure mode on a 5-min fuse.

[P2] tests: exit 1 inside eval aborted the whole suite — FIXED (flag-based).
[P2] 7-host assertion matched the header comment, not the plan body — FIXED (scoped to the plan template; this immediately caught that tsys4 only appeared as slash-shorthand — plan body now names all seven hosts explicitly).
[P2] suppression timestamp set before notify — FIXED (stamp now set after the notify actions).
[P2] initial: flags revert on restart mid-test — kept (fail-safe direction) and documented in-file for the Sept 11-12 runbook.
[P2] status-unavailable silences safety page — accepted-as-designed; covered by UPS COMMS LOST.

All gates re-run green: SDLC suite 0 failures, yamllint clean, on-box ha core check passed with the exact changed files.

ci: park config-check job — runner-side debugging needed [#778] ... aa8d78825a

Local check_config passes (validated); CI job fails in the runner env.
Three causes already fixed (alpine-musl node mount, py3.13 floor,
checkout needs node); 4s failure needs UI job logs. Full trail in the
follow-up ticket. On-box 'ha core check' remains the release gate.
