release: prepare v0.3.5

- Add terminal size detection with _MIN_WIDTH (80) and _MIN_HEIGHT (24) thresholds
- Add constrained CSS layout: single-column grid, hide graph, show text summary
- Add #constrained-summary widget with textual history summary
- Add on_resize handler and _refresh()-based constrained state detection
- Preserve selected-day context across resize transitions
- Ensure all regions (headline, health, service, quit) remain usable when constrained
- Update DailyBarGraph._is_constrained to accept terminal_width parameter
- Add comprehensive tests for constrained layout behavior

Covers TPH-9 and cross-cutting TPH regression proof.
Closes #81

+<!--
+Maintainers add one user-facing entry to Unreleased with each change. A release

+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.3.5] - 2026-09-14
+
+### Added
+
+- Show trustworthy first-use history, qualifying-day progress, and confidence in the dashboard.
+- Add an interactive daily-writes graph with hourly drill-down and evidence-anchored scenario windows.
+- Repair retained observation history safely and keep its retention state visible.
+- Present a unified monitoring status, drive-health context, and Fenris identity in the dashboard.
+- Remember accessible colour and motion preferences and keep the dashboard usable at constrained terminal sizes.
+
+## [0.3.4] - 2026-09-10
+
+### Added
+
+- Add Fenris identity and a polkit authentication notice to the dashboard.
+- Clarify monitoring continuity, deliberate pauses, and quitting in the dashboard and status output.
+- Add per-release notes with installation, verification, and rollback guidance.

 ## Requirements
 
-- **Python ≥ 3.9** (verified at install time)
+- **Python ≥ 3.10** (verified at install time)
 - **smartmontools** (`smartctl` — verified at install time)
 - **systemd** with a polkit agent (the collector runs as root oneshot; elevation is exclusively polkit)
 
 No other OS packages or Python dependencies beyond [Textual](https://textual.textualize.io/) (pinned in the lockfile).
 
-## Install
+## Install from package (recommended)
 
-```bash
+### Debian / Ubuntu (apt)
-sudo make install
+
+The Gitea instance Debian registry signs metadata with its own key. Verify the
+instance key fingerprint (TOFU hardening):
+
+```text
+Fingerprint: <print after first release — paste beside the curl one-liner>
 ```
 
-What it does:
+Add the instance key and repository:
-1. Builds a wheel from the checkout and installs it — with pinned dependencies — into the dedicated venv at `/opt/fenris`.
-2. Places the `fenris` wrapper in `/usr/local/bin`, helpers in `/usr/libexec/fenris`, systemd units in `/etc/systemd/system`, and the polkit policy in `/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/`.
-3. Creates `/var/lib/fenris` (root-written, group-readable) — the observation store is created lazily by the first collection run.
-4. Records every placed file in a manifest consumed by upgrade and uninstall.
-5. Detects `./data/history.jsonl` beside the source checkout and runs the idempotent legacy import if present.
 
-**A fresh install is fully dormant.** Units are present but disabled; nothing runs. The only opt-in is the sanctioned toggle:
+```bash
+sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
+sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-xavierk.asc \
+  https://git.bongbetic.com/api/packages/xavierk/debian/repository.key
+
+echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-xavierk.asc] \
+  https://git.bongbetic.com/api/packages/xavierk/debian bookworm main" \
+  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fenris.list
+
+sudo apt update && sudo apt install fenris
+```
+
+Replace `bookworm` with your distribution codename (`bookworm`, `jammy`, or
+`noble`).
+
+### Fedora / openSUSE Tumbleweed (RPM)
+
+Use the Fenris-owned repo file (not Gitea's auto-generated one):
+
+```bash
+sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo \
+  https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/raw/branch/main/packaging/fenris.repo
+
+sudo dnf install fenris
+```
+
+On openSUSE Tumbleweed, add the same standard RPM repository file and install
+with zypper:
+
+```bash
+sudo zypper addrepo --refresh \
+  https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/raw/branch/main/packaging/fenris.repo fenris
+sudo zypper install fenris
+```
+
+The repo file sets `gpgcheck=1` against the Fenris packaging key (downloaded
+from the raw URL in `gpgkey`) and `repo_gpgcheck=0` (metadata check left to
+TLS).
+
+### Package signature verification
+
+The RPM payload is signed with the Fenris packaging key (RSA 3072).
+Verification happens automatically via dnf's `gpgcheck=1`. For manual
+verification of downloaded assets:
+
+```bash
+rpm -Kv fenris-*.x86_64.rpm          # RPM payload signature
+gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS  # Clearsigned checksum manifest
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS                  # Checksum match
+```
+
+The packaging public key is published in-repo — no keyservers. See
+`packaging/keys/fenris-packaging.asc` and
+`docs/install/signing-key-ceremony.md` for key lifecycle details.
+
+### Dormant install
+
+A fresh package install is fully dormant. Units are present but disabled;
+nothing runs. The only opt-in is the sanctioned toggle:
 
 ```bash
 fenris monitor resume    # enable timer + open first monitoring period
 fenris monitor pause     # close the period, disable timer
 ```
 
+## Development install (make install)
+
+For contributors building from source:
+
+```bash
+sudo make install
+```
+
+This builds a wheel, installs its locked pure-Python runtime packages into
+`/opt/fenris/vendor`,
+and places helpers, units, and the polkit policy. Units are dormant by default.
+
+```bash
+sudo make upgrade    # re-sync wheel, units, schema
+make uninstall       # removes artifacts, preserves config and store
+make purge           # also removes /etc/fenris and /var/lib/fenris
+```
+
 ## Upgrade
 
+### Package upgrade
+
+```bash
+sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade fenris    # Debian/Ubuntu
+sudo dnf upgrade fenris                       # Fedora
+```
+
+### Development upgrade
+
 ```bash
 sudo make upgrade
 ```
 
 What it does:
 1. Snapshots `observations.db` to a one-generation backup (`.bak`).
-2. Installs the new wheel into the same venv with pinned dependencies.
+2. Replaces the locked runtime packages under `/opt/fenris/vendor`.
 3. Syncs units and polkit against the manifest; runs `daemon-reload`.
 4. Restarts the timer **only** if unit contents changed **and** it is active — a running collection run finishes on its mapped interpreter; the next run uses the new code.
 5. Applies forward-only schema migrations (the store directory is never rebuilt; automatic downgrade does not exist).
 
 Rollback: reinstall the previous version and restore `observations.db.bak`.
 
+## Migration from make install
+
+If Fenris was previously installed with `sudo make uninstall` first, then
+installed from the package, existing config, store, and group survive by path
+continuity. Over-installing the package over a `make install` is
+**forbidden** — stale units shadow vendor placement. See
+[docs/install/migrate-from-makeinstall.md](docs/install/migrate-from-makeinstall.md).
+
 ## Uninstall and purge
 
+### Package removal
+
+```bash
+sudo apt remove fenris       # preserves config and store
+sudo apt purge fenris        # also removes config and store
+sudo dnf remove fenris       # preserves config and store
+```
+
+### Development removal
+
 ```bash
 make uninstall     # removes artifacts, preserves config and observation history
 make purge         # also removes /etc/fenris and /var/lib/fenris
 ```
 
-Uninstall performs the sanctioned disable first (`fenris-monitor disable --now`) — an open period closes `user_disabled` — then removes the venv, helpers, units, polkit policy, and wrapper while keeping `/etc/fenris` and the observation store. Reinstalling resumes from the preserved store.

-1. **Delivery (amended).** Packages are primary: one deb per codename pool (`bookworm`, `jammy`, `noble`) and one rpm (group `fenris`, Fedora 40+), built by nfpm from a single `packaging/nfpm.yaml` over a staged `--copies` venv at `/opt/fenris`, published to the Gitea Debian/RPM registry and installed with `apt`/`dnf`. `sudo make install` remains as the dev fallback for machines without packages; the two deliveries are mutually exclusive per machine. Version scheme `<pyproject-version>-1`, revision bump on rebuild.
+1. **Delivery (amended).** Packages are primary: one deb per codename pool (`bookworm`, `jammy`, `noble`) and one rpm (group `fenris`, Fedora 40+ and openSUSE Tumbleweed), built by nfpm from a single `packaging/nfpm.yaml` over locked pure-Python runtime packages staged at `/opt/fenris/vendor`, published to the Gitea Debian/RPM registry and installed with `apt`, `dnf`, or `zypper`. `sudo make install` remains as the dev fallback for machines without packages; the two deliveries are mutually exclusive per machine. Version scheme `<pyproject-version>-1`, revision bump on rebuild.
 2. **Layout and manifest (amended).** The hand-rolled manifest model is retired: the dpkg/rpm database **is** the manifest, and nothing like `manifest.txt` ships. Package-owned layout: units in `/usr/lib/systemd/system` (vendor placement; `/etc/systemd/system` is admin-only for drop-ins and enable state); helpers stay in `/usr/libexec/fenris` (exactly `fenris-monitor` and `fenris-collect` — no new polkit-reachable binaries); polkit policy in `/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/`; wrapper at `/usr/bin/fenris` (FHS; `/usr/local/bin` remains `make install`'s). The `fenris` group is declared in `/usr/lib/sysusers.d/fenris.conf` (`g fenris -`) and `/var/lib/fenris` in `/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/fenris.conf` (`d /var/lib/fenris 2750 root fenris -`), both invoked from the maintainer scripts. The package owns the `/var/lib/fenris` directory only; `observations.db`, WAL sidecars, and `.bak` are never owned and never ghosted — ghost-erase would delete the store, violating 0004 §8.
 3. **Privilege (unchanged).** Root acts through maintainer scripts at install/upgrade/removal time; at runtime, elevation is exclusively polkit, exactly as 0004 §3 and [ADR 0003](0003-service-lifecycle-and-sanctioned-toggle.md) §5 fix it.
 4. **Dormant install (restated for packages).** A fresh package install is fully dormant: postinst/%post performs `systemctl daemon-reload` (plus `systemd-sysusers` and `systemd-tmpfiles --create`) and nothing else — never enable, never preset, never start; no preset file ships. The sanctioned toggle (`fenris monitor resume`) remains the only opt-in.
 5. **Legacy import (narrowed).** Auto-detection of `./data/history.jsonl` is scoped to `make install` only — a package install has no checkout to inspect. `fenris import <path>` remains available as the only import path from packages.
-6. **Upgrade (inherited, maintainer-script mechanics).** Upgrades arrive as packages from the single registry channel. postinst/%post on upgrade: snapshot `observations.db` → one-generation `.bak`, run forward-only schema migrations via inline `/opt/fenris/bin/python3 -c "…migrate_to_latest…"` (no new binaries), `daemon-reload`, and restart `fenris-collect.timer` only if unit contents changed **and** it is active. `/var/lib/fenris` is never rebuilt; a running oneshot finishes on its old interpreter.
+6. **Upgrade (inherited, maintainer-script mechanics).** Upgrades arrive as packages from the single registry channel. postinst/%post on upgrade: snapshot `observations.db` → one-generation `.bak`, run forward-only schema migrations through the target `python3` with `/opt/fenris/vendor` on its import path (no new binaries), `daemon-reload`, and restart `fenris-collect.timer` only if unit contents changed **and** it is active. `/var/lib/fenris` is never rebuilt; a running oneshot finishes on its old interpreter.
 7. **Rollback (unchanged, plus one hard edge).** One-generation `.bak` semantics are unchanged. Package downgrade is additionally unsupported: forward-only store-version refusal means installing an older package over a newer store fails by design; documented rollback = restore the snapshot, then install the old release.
 8. **Removal (mapped).** deb `remove` ≈ `make uninstall` (conffile and store survive); deb `purge` ≈ `make purge` (plus `.bak` and group cleanup); rpm erase ≈ `make uninstall` (unmodified config removed, modified survives as `.rpmsave`; purge is a documented manual command). prerm/%preun performs the sanctioned disable — `fenris-monitor disable --now`, closing the period `user_disabled` — on remove/erase **only, never on upgrade** (deb prerm upgrade case is a no-op; rpm `%preun` gated on `$1 -eq 0`).
 9. **Conffile semantics (new).** `/etc/fenris/fenris.conf` ships as a placeholder-commented default with no active device selector — deb conffile, rpm `%config(noreplace)`. The device selector is entered by hand (root edits the file), as in both prior deliveries; no configuration verb is added to `fenris-monitor`, and [ADR 0003](0003-service-lifecycle-and-sanctioned-toggle.md) §3's read-and-validate-at-collection-time semantics are untouched. On upgrade, local edits survive as-is; a changed package default lands beside them as `.dpkg-new`/`.rpmnew`.

+# Migrating from make-install to packages
+
+This runbook covers the transition from a `sudo make install` system to the native deb or rpm package. Packages are the primary delivery; `make install` remains as the dev fallback. The two deliveries are **mutually exclusive** per machine.
+
+## Why over-install is forbidden
+
+Installing a package over a make-install system silently breaks things:
+
+- **Stale admin units shadow vendor units.** `make install` places `fenris-collect.timer` and `fenris-collect.service` in `/etc/systemd/system/`. The package installs them in `/usr/lib/systemd/system/` (vendor placement). Systemd loads admin units first — the stale copy takes precedence, and the package update never reaches the running system.
+- **The local wrapper shadows the package wrapper.** `make install` places the `fenris` wrapper at `/usr/local/bin/fenris`. The package places it at `/usr/bin/fenris`. The shell finds `/usr/local/bin` first on PATH — the old checkout-relative wrapper runs instead of the package wrapper.
+
+Neither condition is reversible by reinstalling the package. The only safe path is remove-then-install.
+
+## Pre-migration checklist
+
+1. Confirm no monitoring period is actively running that you want to preserve across the gap:
+   ```
+   fenris status
+   ```
+   The migration resets the system to dormant (see [No-move continuity](#no-move-continuity) below). You opt back in with `fenris monitor resume`.
+
+2. If you have hand-edited configuration at `/etc/fenris/fenris.conf`, note it. The config survives the migration in place (see below).
+
+## Remove step
+
+```
+sudo make uninstall
+```
+
+This performs the **sanctioned disable** (`fenris-monitor disable --now`), closing the current monitoring period as `user_disabled`. It then removes all make-install artifacts: the venv at `/opt/fenris`, the wrapper at `/usr/local/bin/fenris`, the helpers at `/usr/libexec/fenris/`, the units in `/etc/systemd/system/`, and the polkit policy. The placement manifest at `/var/lib/fenris/manifest.txt` is removed.
+
+**What survives the remove:**
+
+- `/var/lib/fenris/observations.db` (and WAL sidecars, `.bak`) — the observation store
+- `/var/lib/fenris/` directory itself — root-written, group-read
+- `/etc/fenris/fenris.conf` — your hand-written configuration
+- The `fenris` system group — created by `groupadd -f` during make-install
+- Journal entries — age out naturally
+
+## Install step
+
+```
+sudo apt install fenris       # Debian/Ubuntu
+sudo dnf install fenris       # Fedora
+```
+
+The package installs into its own layout without touching the surviving store, config, or group.
+
+## No-move continuity
+
+These invariants are verified by the containerized acceptance tests (issue #50):
+
+| Asset | Make-install state | Package post-install | Mechanism |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `fenris` group | Exists (`groupadd -f`) | Unchanged | `systemd-sysusers` is a no-op when the group already exists |
+| `/var/lib/fenris` directory | Exists (mode 2750, root:fenris) | Unchanged | `systemd-tmpfiles --create` is a no-op when the directory already exists |
+| `observations.db` + sidecars | Present from prior monitoring | Unchanged, never owned by the package | Package owns the directory only; store contents are never ghosted |
+| `/etc/fenris/fenris.conf` | Hand-edited device selector | Survives in place; package default lands as `.dpkg-new` / `.rpmnew` | dpkg conffile / rpm `%config(noreplace)` semantics |
+| Store schema | Version from prior Fenris release | Caught up by the upgrade-path migration | `postinst` / `%post` runs `migrate_to_latest()` on upgrade |
+
+The package detects the make-install system has been removed by the absence of the two markers:
+- `/var/lib/fenris/manifest.txt` (the placement manifest)
+- `/etc/systemd/system/fenris-collect.timer` (pre-manifest make installs)
+
+If either marker exists, the package installation aborts with a pointer to this runbook.
+
+## Reset-to-dormant
+
+`make uninstall`'s sanctioned disable closes the open monitoring period as `user_disabled`. After the package install, the system is dormant — the timer is installed but disabled, nothing is running, no monitoring period is open.
+
+To resume monitoring:
+
+```
+fenris monitor resume
+```
+
+This is the sanctioned opt-in. It enables the timer and opens the first monitoring period in one step. The migration costs at most one short sample gap (the interval between `make uninstall` and `fenris monitor resume`), honestly recorded in the endurance timeline.
+
+## Verification
+
+After migration, confirm the package is correctly installed:
+
+```
+fenris status
+```
+
+The status command should show the dormant state: timer disabled, no active monitoring period, and the observation store intact from the prior make-install system.

+# Signing key ceremony
+
+The Fenris packaging key signs RPM payloads and clearsigns SHA256SUMS manifests.
+This document describes the key's lifecycle: creation, per-release use, rotation,
+and destruction.
+
+## Key specification
+
+| Property | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Algorithm | RSA 3072 |
+| UID | `Fenris Packaging <packaging@bongbetic.com>` |
+| Expiry | 2 years from creation |
+| Hierarchy | Single key — no master/subkey split (single maintainer, manual builds) |
+| Private key storage | Password manager only |
+| Public key storage | `packaging/keys/fenris-packaging.asc` in-repo, release notes, docs |
+| Keyservers | Never — TOFU-over-TLS via raw URL |
+
+## First release: key creation
+
+```bash
+# Generate the dedicated RSA-3072 packaging key
+gpg --batch --gen-key <<EOF
+%no-protection
+Key-Type: RSA
+Key-Length: 3072
+Name-Real: Fenris Packaging
+Name-Email: packaging@bongbetic.com
+Expire-Date: 2y
+%commit
+EOF
+
+# Export the public half — this file is committed to the repo
+gpg --armor --export packaging@bongbetic.com > packaging/keys/fenris-packaging.asc
+
+# Print the fingerprint for docs and release notes
+gpg --fingerprint packaging@bongbetic.com
+```
+
+Save the **private key** to the password manager immediately:
+
+```bash
+gpg --armor --export-secret-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+```
+
+Then **delete the private key from the local keyring** — it must never persist
+on any build host:
+
+```bash
+gpg --delete-secret-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+gpg --delete-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+```
+
+The committed `fenris-packaging.asc` must contain the real public key (replace
+the placeholder comments).
+
+## Per-release signing flow
+
+Each release performs: **import → sign → delete**. The private key is never
+stored on disk longer than the release takes.
+
+### Step 1: Import the private key
+
+Retrieve the private key from the password manager and import it:
+
+```bash
+gpg --import /tmp/packaging-key-private.asc
+rm /f /tmp/packaging-key-private.asc   # Shred if possible
+```
+
+### Step 2: Build and sign packages
+
+The Makefile target `make release` handles signing automatically when the
+key is in the keyring:
+
+```bash
+make release    # builds, signs RPM, clearsigns SHA256SUMS, prints upload steps
+```
+
+Under the hood:
+
+1. `rpmsign --addsign` signs the RPM payload with the packaging key
+   (invoked by `make sign-rpm`).
+2. `sha256sum` generates the checksum manifest.
+3. `gpg --clearsign` produces `SHA256SUMS.asc` with the packaging key.
+
+### Step 3: Delete the private key
+
+Immediately after signing:
+
+```bash
+gpg --delete-secret-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+gpg --delete-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+```
+
+Verify the key is gone:
+
+```bash
+gpg --list-keys packaging@bongbetic.com
+# Should produce: gpg: keyblock resource ...: No such file or directory
+```
+
+The entire import → sign → delete cycle should take minutes. The private key
+must never be left in any keyring between releases.
+
+## Key rotation (outline)
+
+When the key approaches expiry, or if it is compromised:
+
+1. **Generate a new key** using the same procedure as first release.
+2. **Publish the new public key** alongside the old one in-repo:
+   ```text
+   packaging/keys/fenris-packaging.asc          # new key (primary)
+   packaging/keys/fenris-packaging-previous.asc  # old key (one cycle)
+   ```
+3. **Sign the next RPM** with the new key.
+4. **Update `fenris.repo`** to list both `gpgkey` URLs (dnf accepts multiple):
+   ```ini
+   gpgkey=https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/raw/branch/main/packaging/keys/fenris-packaging.asc
+         https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/raw/branch/main/packaging/keys/fenris-packaging-previous.asc
+   ```
+5. **Drop the old key** from the repo after one release cycle. Delete
+   `fenris-packaging-previous.asc` and revert `gpgkey` to the single URL.
+
+## Verification
+
+Consumers verify the RPM payload signature via dnf (gpgcheck=1 in
+`fenris.repo` points at the published public key). The SHA256SUMS manifest
+verification is manual for downloaded assets:
+
+```bash
+gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
+```
+
+## One-time live probe
+
+Before the first real release, verify the full registry path end-to-end with a
+throwaway package. This confirms apt/dnf metadata generation, signature
+verification, and consumer setup work as a real consumer would experience them.
+
+### Setup
+
+```bash
+# Create a throwaway package name to avoid polluting fenris metadata
+PROBE_NAME="fenris-regtest"
+PROBE_VERSION="0.0.1"
+```
+
+### Publish
+
+```bash
+# Build a throwaway deb and rpm (use the existing nfpm config with a dummy name)
+# Or use a pre-built package — the probe tests the registry path, not the build
+
+# Upload deb to all codename pools

+# Fenris dashboard clarity specification
+
+**Status: decision-complete.** Assembled by [Assemble the dashboard clarity specification and close the map](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/60) from the closed tickets of the Wayfinder map [Chart Fenris dashboard clarity](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/55). This document is normative for the follow-up **execution effort**; nothing here is implemented by the map.
+
+**Canonical roles.** The [redesign specification](fenris-redesign.md) (frozen) and [ADRs 0001–0007](../adr/) remain authoritative and untouched — this is a companion spec covering five dashboard clarity additions plus the changelog-driven release-notes mechanism. The [criteria register](acceptance-criteria.md) carries the testable statements: **DC-1–DC-8**, appended by this assembly, with **TUI-4's binding list amended** (§4). Terminology follows the glossary in [`CONTEXT.md`](../../CONTEXT.md), including *Deliberate disable* and *Release*.
+
+**Binding language.** *Must*, *exactly*, and *never* are normative.
+
+## How to read this document
+
+Five screen additions (§1–§5), one release-notes mechanism (§6), the verbatim string register (§7), and the README section to add at execution (§8). Each section cites its criteria. Source strings are lowercase; the TUI may render uppercase via styling only. Typography, governing every string: em-dash `—` separates a title from its qualifier; middle dot `·` joins facts within a line; UTF-8 is assumed. CI parity sweeps compare lowercase source strings — rendering case is styling, not wording.
+
+## 1. Header bar and Bongbetic credit — DC-1
+
+Visual base is treatment A, quiet integration: the existing Panes information architecture is preserved.
+
+- The header bar reads `Fenris — NVMe endurance monitor`.
+- The credit `by Bongbetic` renders dimmed, inline with service facts in the bottom service strip — never in the action row.
+- Both are TUI-only identity surfaces: `fenris status` never renders them.
+
+## 2. Continuity line — DC-2
+
+A labelled `CONTINUITY` row in the service strip (treatment B), mirrored by `fenris status` — the TUI/CLI parity anchor. The row is keyed to the boot fact as-is, independently of run state (Deliberate disable runs `systemctl disable --now`, so paused implies boot-disabled; the row still reports the fact):
+
+- Active + boot enabled: `monitoring: active in background · persists across reboots`
+- Boot disabled: `monitoring: does not start on next boot`
+
+Identical lowercase source strings in the TUI service strip and `fenris status`, including while paused.
+
+## 3. Paused state block — DC-3
+
+Treatment C, strong state blocks: when monitoring is paused, a full-width, high-contrast banner clearly identifying Deliberate disable:
+
+- Title: `monitoring: paused — deliberate disable`
+- Subline: `paused time is excluded from your usage habit · resume: fenris monitor resume`
+
+`fenris status` prints the same two lines with identical wording (state line + consequence line). The resume hint uses the CLI form only; the footer owns key hints — no duplication.
+
+## 4. Quit rail — DC-4 (amends TUI-4)
+
+Treatment B, labelled rails: a prominent bordered `q QUIT TUI` rail, visually separate from the monitoring-state block and the paused banner. The footer becomes `p pause · r resume · c collect · d disclosures` — the rail owns quit; the footer carries no quit entry. Quitting the TUI never alters monitoring state. The register's TUI-4 binding parenthetical is amended accordingly by this assembly.
+
+## 5. Launch auth banner — DC-5
+
+A quiet informational line (treatment A) that never competes with drive state:
+
+- Text: `privileged actions will prompt for authentication (polkit)`
+- Full-width under the header at TUI launch; clears on the first refresh tick; never reappears in the session.
+- TUI-only; `fenris status` never shows it.
+- Elevation wording is polkit-accurate everywhere: no user-facing string uses "sudo" (sudo belongs to install/upgrade docs).
+- Evidence class A: a Textual pilot drives refresh ticks headlessly.
+
+## 6. Changelog and release notes — DC-6, DC-7, DC-8
+
+Implements the existing glossary term *Release* (tag + packages + change notes together). No new glossary terms; no ADR (reversible mechanism).
+
+### 6.1 CHANGELOG.md (source of truth, repo root)
+
+- Keep a Changelog 1.1 shape. `## [Unreleased]` is always present at top, even empty. Version headings are `## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD` — bracketed bare semver, strict ISO date.
+- Categories are `### Added`, `### Changed`, `### Fixed` only; security fixes fold into Fixed.
+- Entries are single `- ` bullets, imperative mood, user-facing phrasing; no commit hashes or issue numbers.
+
+### 6.2 Extraction (release.yml, tag time)
+
+- `scripts/extract_changelog.py` (checked in, unit-tested): takes the changelog path and a version; slices that version's section verbatim; never reads `[Unreleased]`. Fails closed — `::error::` plus nonzero exit — when the section is missing or empty or the date is malformed.
+- Guard: the workflow fails when the pushed tag ≠ `v{version from pyproject.toml}` (guard skipped on `workflow_dispatch`).
+
+### 6.3 Release body
+
+- Body = extracted version section verbatim + standing footer from `packaging/release-footer.md` (channel install one-liners, `sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.asc` verify, rollback pointer). The footer is standing text; only the changelog section varies.
+- Re-run against an existing release: PATCH the body (changelog re-sync is a feature); uploaded assets/packages keep their current idempotent-skip.
+
+### 6.4 Discipline
+
+- All entries land in `[Unreleased]` as part of the fixing change — no notes-later step.
+- One release commit bumps the pyproject version, renames `[Unreleased]` → the version heading, and restores an empty `[Unreleased]`; the tag points at that commit (tag ↔ pyproject ↔ changelog triple-match, enforced fail-closed by DC-7).
+- No backfill: per-release notes begin with the release shipping this mechanism; `CHANGELOG.md` starts with empty `[Unreleased]`.

+
+`fenris status` prints the paused state line + consequence line when paused, identical wording to the banner title + subline.
+
+## 8. README section (add at execution)
+
+The README gains a "Reading the dashboard" section after the CLI reference. Verbatim text:
+
+```markdown
+## Reading the dashboard
+
+`fenris` opens the TUI dashboard. Three things it tells you:
+
+- **Continuity** — the service strip's continuity line (and `fenris status`) reports whether monitoring survives reboots: `monitoring: active in background · persists across reboots`, or `monitoring: does not start on next boot`.
+- **Paused vs. quit** — a full-width `monitoring: paused — deliberate disable` block means collection is stopped (`fenris monitor pause`); resume with `fenris monitor resume`. Pressing `q` only leaves the screen — monitoring keeps running in the background.
+- **Auth banner** — at launch, `privileged actions will prompt for authentication (polkit)` shows once and clears on the first refresh. Privileged actions elevate via polkit; Fenris never asks for sudo.
+
+Per-release notes live on the [releases page](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/releases): each entry is the version's `CHANGELOG.md` section — what was added, changed, and fixed — plus standing install and verification instructions.
+```
+
+This resolves the map's README-wording fog: the wording is decided here; the actual README edit is execution.
+
+## 9. Out of scope
+
+Executing any of this — code, tests, releases — and any TUI layout or information-architecture redesign beyond the five additions named above. Execution is a fresh effort after handoff.

+- Dependencies are vendored as locked, pure-Python runtime packages for every target: Debian 12 and Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 ship `python3-textual` 0.1.13, far below the floor; Fedora 40+ ships ≥ 0.48 but below the pin ([toolchain research](../research/deb-rpm-toolchain.md)). No distro `python3-textual` dependency ever enters package metadata.
 - Package metadata `depends:`/`Requires:` are exactly `python3 (>= 3.10)`, `smartmontools`, `systemd` — the Python floor is 3.10 (oldest supported distro interpreter, Ubuntu 22.04), bumping ADR 0004 §10's 3.9 gate for packages; `make install` keeps the checkout's floor.
-- The bundled venv is staged with `python3 -m venv --copies` at `/opt/fenris`: shebangs point at the fixed absolute `/opt/fenris/bin/python`, and the stdlib still comes from the host interpreter, which is why `python3 (>= 3.10)` is a hard dependency.
+- Runtime packages are staged with `python3 -m pip --target /opt/fenris/vendor`; entry points run the target system's `python3` with that directory on the import path. No package ships a copied Python interpreter, avoiding build-host ABI paths and rolling-distribution minor-version breakage.

 - **nfpm** for both formats from a single `packaging/nfpm.yaml` — one config, `overrides:` for per-format deltas, two invocations (`nfpm pkg -p deb`, `nfpm pkg -p rpm`). fpm is dropped entirely (CLI-flag config drifts); no hand rpm spec; dh-virtualenv is deb-only and dormant since 2020.
-- **Single source of truth:** version injected from `pyproject.toml`; file lists generated by a staging script (venv `--copies` → `/opt/fenris` tree, plus wrapper, helpers, units, polkit policy, sysusers/tmpfiles fragments) referenced by `nfpm.yaml` as a `type: tree` content entry — no hand-maintained file lists.

 - **Entry point:** `make package` → `dist/fenris_<v>_amd64.deb` + `dist/fenris-<v>-1.x86_64.rpm`.
 - **Version scheme:** `<pyproject-version>-1` in both formats; a rebuild of the same upstream version bumps the revision (`-2`, `-3`, …) — the same filename is never re-PUT (registry 409s duplicates).
 - **Authoring `nfpm.yaml`, the staging script, and the workflow file is execution** — deliberately not part of the decision map. The [toolchain research doc](../research/deb-rpm-toolchain.md) sketches the pipeline.
 
 ## 4. Signing and key policy
 
-- **RPM payload: signed.** rpmsign with the dedicated packaging key, wired through the nfpm config. This is required, not optional: it is the only working dnf-native verification path.
+- **RPM payload: signed.** rpmsign with the dedicated packaging key, invoked by `make sign-rpm` after the package is built. This is required, not optional: it is the only working dnf-native verification path.
 - **deb: unsigned.** apt never verifies payload signatures; trust = instance-signed `InRelease` (signed-by keyring) + TLS + Acquire-By-Hash. Manual-download integrity is covered by SHA256SUMS.
 - **SHA256SUMS: clearsigned** with the packaging key — the trust anchor for manually downloaded release assets, independent of TLS.
-- **Packaging key:** single dedicated key, RSA 3072, UID `Fenris Packaging <packaging@bongbetic.com>`, 2-year expiry, no master/subkey hierarchy (single maintainer, manual builds). Private key lives in the password manager only; each release does import → sign → delete — nothing permanent on any build host.

 - **Cadence: on-demand.** Tag when user-visible changes or fixes accumulate; no calendar, no empty releases, no frequency SLA, no RC ceremony — fixes ship as a revision bump of the current version.
 - **Versioning: plain semver.** Major = breaking CLI/config/unit change; store schema changes ride the natural bump (the forward-only refusal handles old-reader/new-store).

 - **Rollback:** installing an older package over a newer store is **unsupported** — the store's forward-only version refusal fails it by design. Documented rollback = restore the observation-store snapshot, then install the old Release. No automatic downgrade machinery exists or will be built.
 - **CI:** no runners are registered on the instance today ([Actions runner research](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/37)), so the manual flow above is primary. A dormant `.gitea/workflows/release.yml` (`on: push: tags: ['v*']`, single job, host-mode runner) is committed alongside; if it fires, it replicates `make release`. Cheapest future upgrade: one `act_runner` static binary in host-label mode on the existing Gitea host.

+status semantic colours/glyphs/text always win.
+
+Theme roles for graph rendering expose distinct colours per preset so
+the bar graph can reflect the user's visual preference without depending
+on graph-ticket completion.
+
+Criteria: TPH-10, AC80-1, AC80-5.
