Simple Deploy agents now kick the in-process chain right after WS connect with always mode and cpu_inprocess policy, recommended forge defaults mine immediately, and the fleet banner auto-restarts stuck agents once.
Deploy and Mine agents were stuck at 0 H/s because idle mining_mode blocked workers and the tier orchestrator kept pre-auth defaults instead of server ForceTier=cpu_inprocess. Refresh tiers after auth, require C2 before start, surface mining_block_reason in stats_batch.
Skips triple-onion deploy lanes for simple_deploy forges, restarts mining after auth with server policy, and surfaces connected-but-not-hashing fixes on Dashboard and Crucible.
Operators can remove machines from Crucible and dashboard rosters with honest messaging that deletion is registry-only; bulk select, oath ledger entries, and Go/Vitest coverage included.
Deploy Recon was wired at /deploy-recon but buried at the bottom of a non-scrolling sidebar under an opaque label; move it after Crucible, rename to Website Scanner, enable nav scroll, and add route/nav smoke tests plus README.
ZIP exports and public download links silently failed because blob saves skipped document.body appendChild (unlike Builds DownloadButton) and public links pointed at the command-deck URL instead of same-origin paths.
POST /api/v1/recon/scan probes fleet ports from the server host, crawls owned HTTP targets, maps findings to spread lanes, and records optional oath ledger rows.
Agents read vpc-id from EC2 IMDS on auth; the server scopes subnet_primary_seeder to vpc-id with /24 fallback, exposes VPC seeder badges, and documents cross-VPC gossip via peering/TGW.
Operators configure bucket and CloudFront domain with env credentials; deploy plans upload RS 4+2 shards and attach signed edge URLs to BGP swarm magnets. Agents fetch LAN, CloudFront, then C2. Forge panel adds test and IAM policy JSON.
Ship POST /api/v1/forge/launch-template with cloud-init user-data embedding genesis snapshot hash and strain card ID; first template-tagged auth pins SpreadGeneration=0 and ParentAgentID=template.
Single-host branch runner complements fallback chain under Fleet AI Control: persona ghost forks, onion_miner_log hops, server exhaustion splice from graft mining genome, Crucible depth badge, and hospice retire after max cycles.
When ai_control_enabled and mining interrupts or hashrate drops, the server composes same-agent fix plans (container restart, chain reorder, GPU swap, idle tune, RandomX restart) with Seer and oath ledger audit — no spread or lateral escalation.
Archive failed epidemiology strains to museum hospice with SQLite persistence, operator/AI/court triggers, breeding and graft guards, topology museum nodes, and Seer plus oath ledger accountability.
Operators fork at hop N to run persona ensembles in parallel on the target agent until mining links; winners merge back into the canonical SQLite-persisted session with WS and Seer events plus mermaid branch graphs in the UI.
Cluster 3+ scout_report hits on the same SSID within 10 minutes; server infers airport/campus/retail venue class and pushes persona spread_policy. Emberwake weather-map merges active scout biomes. Includes agent, server API, and Vitest coverage.
Server Reed-Solomon 4+2 shard encode on deploy plans when erasure_lanes_enabled; agents reassemble from parallel lane URLs as staging fallback with BGP/Path Tracer hints.
Gate manual and AI commands by per-agent clearance, auto-elevate stuck hosts to L4 when AI mode allows, and surface clearance in Access Depth and LOTL timeline.
Publish winning tier paths per host fingerprint on hashrate success, inherit on auth before adaptive strategy, and surface clone badges in LOTL Timeline and Access Depth.
Operators toggle Logic gates vs AI Control on Settings, refresh local Ollama models, and save ai_endpoint settings via Calibrate PUT; server scheduler and agent snapshot/command paths support stateless 60s fleet decisions.
Implements three new spread lanes following the do_peer pattern: DNS TXT mesh staging, WebRTC LAN seed manifest delivery, and WSUS SoftwareDistribution cousin handoff. Integrates tiers into onion chain, deploy-plan allowlist, Forge UI/docs, and tests.
