+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.3.7] - 2026-09-16
+
+### Changed
+
+- Make usage-history axes, units, UTC boundaries, active 7/14/30/90-day window, gaps, partial periods, stacked write attribution, and hourly drill-down explicit; keep live graph data refreshed on the existing five-minute cadence.
+
+## [0.3.6] - 2026-09-16
+
+### Changed
+
+- Use sentence case throughout the dashboard and add persistent keyboard and sudo guidance.
+- Share read-only status acquisition between the CLI and TUI, preserving unknown monitoring state and store-fault recovery guidance.
+- Use one authenticated action path for the CLI and TUI; let valid collection runs finish without the former 30-second dashboard cutoff.
+- Remove the unused sparkline and habit-bar rendering path while retaining the interactive history graph.
+- Align all package formats on the MIT license and Python 3.10 minimum; include the license text in native packages.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Correct observation-store directory permissions in native packages, including repair of older runit installations during upgrade.
+
+## [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.

CONTEXT.md

@@ -40,6 +40,14 @@ _Avoid_: Hourly record, hourly.jsonl entry
 One row per UTC day derived from hour observations; the grain at which usage-habit evidence is judged.
 _Avoid_: Daily summary, daily stats
 
+**Usage-history window**:
+An exact consecutive span of UTC calendar days ending today, shown from day aggregates; a day without trustworthy evidence remains an explicit gap rather than disappearing or being estimated.
+_Avoid_: Available records, dataset range
+
+**Unallocated write evidence**:
+Writes known to belong to a UTC day but which cannot be assigned honestly to a particular hour; they contribute to that day's total but are never distributed across hourly bars.
+_Avoid_: Missing writes, estimated hourly writes
+
 **Controller segment**:
 A span of observation history within which the drive's controller identity is unchanged and counters are monotonic; write deltas are never computed across a segment boundary.
 _Avoid_: Counter reset handling, drive swap detection

+available at

+For later updates, always refresh first so XBPS fetches the current index:
+
+```bash
+sudo xbps-install -M -Syu

+
+The `-M` flag bypasses XBPS's on-disk repodata cache. It is required when

+## Reading the dashboard
+
+Run `fenris` as your normal user to open the TUI dashboard. The dashboard does
+not need `sudo`. Use `sudo` for package installation and system configuration;
+pause, resume, and collect-now actions normally authenticate through polkit.
+
+If the observation store is inaccessible, add your login user to the `fenris`
+group with `sudo usermod -aG fenris "$USER"`, then log out and back in.
+
+If polkit authentication is unavailable, quit the dashboard and run only the
+required administrative action in your terminal:
+
+```bash
+sudo fenris monitor resume   # Enable monitoring now and across reboots
+sudo fenris monitor pause    # Confirm a deliberate monitoring pause
+sudo fenris sample           # Request one collection run
+```
+
+Reopen the dashboard with `fenris` afterward. Press `?` for these instructions
+and keyboard controls at any time; use the arrow keys to scroll and `Esc` to close.
+
+The CLI and TUI share the same authenticated action path. Authentication and
+waiting for collection have no separate dashboard deadline; the native collector
+enforces its 90-second runtime limit. An interrupted or failed action is not
+automatically retried—check `fenris status` before retrying.
+
+- **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** — the launch notice explains normal-user startup and polkit authentication, then clears on the first refresh. The `?` help screen remains available.

+# 8. Native Void Linux support and XBPS delivery
+
+Status: Accepted — implementation and host acceptance completed; evidence is recorded in [issue #87](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/87).
+
+Fenris will support Void Linux natively with runit and full application feature parity, while retaining its existing Debian/RPM and systemd support. This extends the platform boundary in [ADR 0003](0003-service-lifecycle-and-sanctioned-toggle.md) and the delivery scope in [ADR 0007](0007-package-delivery-amends-0004.md): requiring Void users to replace their init system would not meet the native-support goal.
+
+Delivery will include a Fenris-maintained, signed XBPS repository that users configure once for subsequent installation and updates through XBPS, plus versioned release artifacts and notes on Gitea. All downloads must be served directly by Gitea itself; a separate static HTTP repository, even alongside Gitea, does not satisfy this requirement.
+
+Use the dedicated public Gitea repository `xavierk/Fenris-xbps` with its permanent `stable` branch. Its raw-file URL serves the XBPS index, versioned packages, and package signatures as ordinary Git blobs without LFS. Keeping binaries in a separate repository avoids increasing application source-clone size. This accepts growth in distribution-repository Git history in exchange for publishing index and artifacts together through one branch update, without the generic registry's delete-and-upload index replacement gap.
+
+Serialize publication, commit the signed index and its new artifacts together, and retain older versioned artifacts in the current tree so clients with cached older indexes can still download them. Native XBPS installation and update tests against the actual endpoint are required before release validation. The first release acceptance recorded in issue #87 verified direct artifact delivery, signed metadata, retained packages, and immediate discovery after an explicit memory-synchronized refresh. The Gitea raw endpoint advertises six-hour HTTP caching; users should use `xbps-install -M -S` when looking for updates so XBPS bypasses its on-disk repodata cache.
+
+Immediate availability is required: after successful XBPS publication, an explicit repository refresh against the permanent URL must discover the newly published version without a cache-expiry wait or a URL change. This does not promise automatic installation on client machines. Acceptance must exercise a client that fetched the previous index before publication and verify that refresh retrieves the new index and its signed package afterward. Resolve and document actual client and intermediary cache behavior; if the selected Gitea route cannot meet this requirement, hold XBPS publication and revisit its delivery mechanics rather than silently accepting delayed availability.
+
+Hosting evidence: [Gitea generic registry](https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/generic), [raw download routing](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/routers/web/web.go), [download handler](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/routers/web/repo/download.go), and [Void repository signing](https://docs.voidlinux.org/xbps/repositories/signing.html). Source inspection and an existing raw-file GET establish feasibility, not end-to-end XBPS validation.
+
+The first supported Void target is x86_64 with glibc, matching the inspected development machine. Release validation must cover installation, real collection, pause/resume, reboot persistence, upgrade, and removal on that machine, preserving existing observation history. Debian/RPM compatibility remains part of the acceptance scope. Additional architectures and musl support are outside this first release.
+
+Package formats have independent publication gates: publish each validated format, and hold only formats that have not passed release validation. A failure or pending validation in XBPS must not prevent a validated Debian or RPM package from shipping, and vice versa. Release notes must identify available formats and those still withheld; publication must not imply validation of a missing format.
+
+After successful native acceptance testing, leave the released XBPS package installed on this machine and monitoring the selected NVMe drive. Preserve the observation history collected during testing. Coordinate the reboot test with the user so it can occur at a suitable interruption point. Issue #87 records that this final state, including reboot persistence, was achieved for the first supported release.

Test impact: feeds the CI-2 sweep (lowercase source-string comparison).
+- **DC-3** (A) Paused presentation (Deliberate disable): the TUI shows a strong state block titled `monitoring: paused — deliberate disable` with subline `paused time is excluded from your usage habit · resume: fenris monitor resume`; `fenris status` prints the same two lines with identical wording. Test impact: feeds the CI-2 sweep (lowercase source-string comparison).

Amends TUI-4's binding parenthetical.
+- **DC-5** (A) Launch auth banner: `privileged actions will prompt for authentication (polkit)` renders full-width under the header at TUI launch, clears on the first refresh tick, and never reappears in the session; no user-facing string uses "sudo" (polkit-accurate elevation wording 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]`.
+
+## 7. String register (verbatim)
+
+### TUI-only strings (launch/identity surfaces)
+
+| Surface | String |
+|---|---|
+| Header bar | `Fenris — NVMe endurance monitor` |
+| Credit (dimmed, inline with service facts) | `by Bongbetic` |
+| Auth banner (full-width under header at launch, clears on first refresh tick, never reappears) | `privileged actions will prompt for authentication (polkit)` |
+| Quit rail (bordered, labelled) | `q QUIT TUI` |
+| Footer (owns key hints; no quit entry) | `p pause · r resume · c collect · d disclosures` |
+
+### Parity strings (TUI and `fenris status` identical — CI-2)
+
+| Surface | String |
+|---|---|
+| Continuity, active + boot enabled | `monitoring: active in background · persists across reboots` |
+| Continuity, boot disabled | `monitoring: does not start on next boot` |
+| Paused state line | `monitoring: paused — deliberate disable` |
+| Paused consequence line | `paused time is excluded from your usage habit · resume: fenris monitor resume` |
+
+`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.

+# Native Void Linux and XBPS distribution
+
+Status: Approved and published as [Support native Void Linux and signed XBPS distribution through Gitea](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/82).
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+Void users cannot install and operate Fenris natively through XBPS because its runtime lifecycle assumes systemd and its release pipeline only produces Debian and RPM packages. The user requires full functionality on the current Void desktop, installation and updates through XBPS, and all downloads served directly by Gitea.
+
+## Solution
+
+Support Void x86_64 with glibc and runit alongside existing systemd distributions. Provide a signed XBPS repository at a permanent raw-file URL in a dedicated public Gitea repository, provisionally Fenris-xbps on its stable branch. Publish versioned assets and notes in the application's Gitea release. Validate each package format independently and publish only formats that passed their gates.
+
+## User Stories
+
+1. As a Void user, I want to install Fenris through XBPS so package ownership and dependencies are managed normally.
+2. As a Void user, I want native runit integration so my operating system's init system remains supported.
+3. As a user, I want a dormant fresh installation so monitoring starts only when I opt in.
+4. As a user, I want authenticated resume and pause controls so privileged operations remain narrowly scoped.
+5. As a user, I want scheduled collection to continue after closing the TUI so observation history remains useful.
+6. As a user, I want on-demand collection to return its real result without overlapping scheduled collection.
+7. As a user, I want boot enablement, current activity, last collection outcome, and freshness reported separately.
+8. As a user, I want actionable native diagnostics when collection fails.
+9. As a user, I want deliberate pauses distinguished from unexplained service interruptions in my monitoring periods.
+10. As a user, I want bounded failed collection runs so a hung device query does not stop future monitoring indefinitely.
+11. As a user, I want all existing dashboard, history, confidence, graph, and accessibility features on Void.
+12. As a user, I want signed downloads directly from Gitea so the configured distribution source and trust key remain consistent.
+13. As a user, I want one permanent repository address so future updates require no URL changes.
+14. As a user, I want an explicit repository refresh to discover a newly published package immediately.
+15. As a user, I want upgrades to preserve configuration, preferences, and observation history and create a usable store snapshot.
+16. As a user, I want removal to stop monitoring deliberately while preserving my history.
+17. As a user, I want documented rollback through a compatible snapshot and earlier release.
+18. As a Debian or RPM user, I want existing functionality and delivery to remain supported.
+19. As a maintainer, I want a failing package format held without blocking validated formats.
+20. As a maintainer, I want release notes to distinguish available formats from withheld ones.
+21. As the owner of this Void machine, I want real installation and lifecycle validation, including a coordinated reboot.
+22. As the owner, I want the released XBPS package left installed and monitoring afterward, preserving test observation history.
+
+## Implementation Decisions
+
+- Amend the existing systemd-only service contract to support native runit while retaining its external semantics. Keep service-specific operations behind a cohesive responsibility shared by the existing privileged control path and read-only status composition; avoid a generalized init-system plugin framework.
+- Preserve a single device-acquisition path, the unprivileged CLI/TUI, and narrow authenticated privileged operations. Verify effective polkit authorization on both platforms; do not infer it from policy installation alone.
+- Preserve completion-relative five-minute scheduling, initial boot delay, bounded collection duration, no catch-up, serialized scheduled/on-demand runs, and truthful outcome reporting. Runit must supply equivalents for guarantees currently provided by systemd. Select internal coordination mechanics during implementation and test their externally observable guarantees.
+- Preserve monitoring-period semantics: sanctioned pause closes user_disabled; raw service interruptions do not record deliberate intent. Preserve separate boot-enabled and runtime-active facts.
+- Use native XBPS ownership and lifecycle scripts, signed index and package signatures, and normal dependency resolution. Keep configuration and observation history safe across upgrade/removal; preserve existing forward-only store compatibility and rollback policy.
+- Host ordinary Git blobs without LFS in the dedicated Gitea repository. Publish index, new versioned packages, and signatures together in one serialized branch update; retain old artifacts for clients with older indexes. Accept binary Git-history growth outside the application source repository.
+- Require immediate discoverability after successful publication through the permanent URL. Test clients that fetched the previous index first. Inspect actual client/intermediary caching before choosing a remedy; do not silently accept six-hour update lag or promise availability from an untested HTTP route.
+- Publish each format only after its own validation passes, even if others fail. Common source failures affect every format whose behavior they invalidate. Clearly report pending/failed formats; permit later addition of validated missing formats without overwriting previously published artifacts.
+- Keep version, release notes, artifact identity, and signatures consistent. Retain previous usable repository state on failed publication and verify externally served artifacts before reporting success.
+- First Void target is x86_64/glibc. Leave the released package installed and monitoring the selected NVMe drive after acceptance; coordinate the desktop reboot with the user.
+
+## Testing Decisions
+
+- Primary runtime boundary: existing user commands and shared CLI/TUI observable state, backed by disposable observation stores and controlled service/acquisition outcomes. Test behavior, not a particular helper layout.
+- Exercise real runit in an isolated Void environment for scheduling, serialization, timeout recovery, enablement, pause/resume, and failure diagnostics. Preserve meaningful systemd regression coverage.
+- Extend existing package lifecycle acceptance tests with native XBPS install, upgrade, removal, configuration preservation, and safe store migration/snapshot scenarios. Use disposable stores for destructive removal/rollback cases.
+- Distribution boundary: a real XBPS client fetching signed metadata and packages from the Gitea endpoint. Verify clean install and upgrade from a previously fetched index immediately after publication, signature rejection, retained older artifacts, and publisher failure/concurrency behavior.
+- Host boundary: validate real SMART acquisition, authorization, CLI/TUI parity, scheduling, pause/resume, reboot persistence, upgrade and removal on this Void machine. Preserve collected history and restore the agreed final installed/monitoring state.
+- Record actual outcomes, skips, and environment failures. Build success, missing test output, stale test caches, and successful signing are not substitutes for package validation.
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+Musl, other architectures, additional init systems, official Void repository inclusion, a separate download server, automatic client upgrades, unrelated dashboard redesign, and automatic downgrade of a newer observation store.
+
+## Further Notes
+
+The design decisions are recorded in ADR 0008. The dedicated distribution repository and end-to-end XBPS proof are complete; the host acceptance record is [issue #87](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/87). The accepted target is Void x86_64/glibc with runit, with the released package installed and monitoring the selected NVMe drive after the coordinated reboot and lifecycle checks.

+
+Status: Approved and published as Gitea issues 83–87 with native blocking edges and ready-for-agent labels. Parent specification: https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/82.
+
+Each issue references the published native Void specification, which includes ADR 0008. Existing Debian/RPM behavior, observation-history preservation, narrowly scoped privilege, and independent publication gates apply throughout.
+
+Published tickets: [1](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/83), [2](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/84), [3](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/85), [4](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/86), [5](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/issues/87).
+
+## 1. Prove signed XBPS installation and immediate updates through Gitea
+
+Blocked by: None.
+
+Deliver a dedicated public Gitea distribution repository and a repeatable, isolated XBPS-client proof using clearly identified test artifacts, without representing them as a validated Fenris release.
+
+- Verify permanent raw URL delivery of index, package and signature bytes without LFS indirection.
+- Establish signing-key handling and trust verification without exposing private keys.
+- Demonstrate install and update with a client that fetched the old index immediately before publication.
+- Resolve actual cache behavior and verify binary size limits; escalate any hosting change outside the agreed Gitea scope.
+- Publish index/artifacts together with serialized updates, preserve older downloadable artifacts, and demonstrate safe failure recovery.
+- Record results and the usable publication mechanism for subsequent tickets.
+
+## 2. Run and control Fenris monitoring natively under runit
+
+Blocked by: None.
+
+Deliver an end-to-end native monitoring path with existing CLI/TUI controls and truthful status in an isolated Void environment.
+
+- Scheduled and on-demand collection use the same acquisition path with no overlap and bounded execution.
+- Preserve cadence, initial boot delay, recovery after failures, and no catch-up semantics.
+- Resume/pause preserve monitoring-period bookkeeping and boot/runtime distinctions; raw service stops do not record deliberate disable.
+- Verify effective authentication and actionable native diagnostics, including missing-agent failures.
+- Preserve systemd behavior and application feature parity through existing public behavior tests.
+
+## 3. Install, upgrade and remove Fenris with native XBPS packages
+
+Blocked by: 2.
+
+Deliver buildable x86_64/glibc XBPS artifacts with dependency resolution and tested package lifecycle in an isolated Void environment.
+
+- Fresh install remains dormant; native controls enable monitoring afterward.
+- Package ownership, configuration preservation, permissions, and group access support real CLI/TUI reads and collector writes.
+- Upgrade snapshots and migrates observation history safely without recording a deliberate pause.
+- Removal performs sanctioned pause and retains history; reinstall and documented snapshot rollback behave correctly.
+- Installation over incompatible unmanaged remnants fails with a useful migration path.
+- Capture explicit lifecycle test results and verify Debian/RPM regressions relevant to changed packaging.
+
+## 4. Publish validated package formats independently from the release workflow
+
+Blocked by: 1, 3.
+
+Deliver a release workflow that builds, validates, signs and publishes XBPS alongside existing Debian/RPM support with independent format gates.
+
+- Unvalidated formats remain withheld while validated formats can ship.
+- Notes accurately identify available and withheld formats; source version, notes, checksums and artifacts agree.
+- A withheld format can be added after validation without replacing existing published artifacts.
+- Gitea serves every download; XBPS uses the proven permanent repository URL and immediate-refresh behavior.
+- Release failure/concurrency cannot expose an index referencing missing artifacts or erase the prior usable channel.
+- Host acceptance remains a required XBPS release gate, not bypassed by build/signature success.
+
+## 5. Validate and release on the user's Void machine
+
+Blocked by: 4.
+
+Deliver recorded host acceptance and the validated XBPS release, ending with Fenris installed and monitoring.
+
+- Recheck host state, identify/configure the intended NVMe drive, and preserve pre-existing data before package lifecycle operations.
+- Verify real acquisition, authenticated controls, scheduling, failure reporting, full dashboard behavior, and pause/resume semantics.
+- Coordinate and verify reboot persistence; absence of the reboot test leaves that gate pending.
+- Verify native upgrade/removal/reinstall with history preservation and immediate update discovery through Gitea.
+- Publish only after the XBPS gate passes, then verify downloads and released-package installation.
+- Preserve acceptance-test observation history and leave the released package monitoring; document installation, trust setup, diagnostics and rollback for Void users.

+# XBPS Proof of Concept Results (Issue #83)
+
+Status: Complete. All acceptance criteria satisfied.
+
+## Summary
+
+Signed XBPS installation and immediate updates through Gitea have been demonstrated
+and verified end-to-end. The publication mechanism is repeatable and documented for
+subsequent tickets.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria Results
+
+### 1. Permanent raw URL delivery without LFS indirection
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+All artifacts are served directly by Gitea via raw-file URLs:
+
+- Repository: `https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris-xbps`
+- Raw URL pattern: `https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris-xbps/raw/branch/stable/x86_64/<file>`
+
+Verified files:
+- `x86_64-repodata` (1327 bytes) — HTTP 200
+- `fenris-0.3.5_1.x86_64.xbps` (731 bytes) — HTTP 200
+- `fenris-0.3.5_1.x86_64.xbps.sig2` (384 bytes) — HTTP 200
+- `fenris-0.3.6_1.x86_64.xbps` (752 bytes) — HTTP 200
+- `fenris-0.3.6_1.x86_64.xbps.sig2` (384 bytes) — HTTP 200
+
+No LFS indirection detected. Files served as ordinary Git blobs.
+
+### 2. Signing-key handling and trust verification
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Signing uses SSH RSA keys (3072-bit) via `xbps-rindex --sign-pkg` and `xbps-rindex --sign`.
+The public key is embedded in the repository metadata (`index-meta.plist`) within the
+repodata archive. XBPS clients prompt for key import on first access and verify
+signatures automatically.
+
+Key characteristics:
+- Private key: SSH RSA format, stored externally (not in repository)
+- Public key: Embedded in repodata, base64-encoded PKCS#8 format
+- Package signatures: `.sig2` files alongside each `.xbps` archive
+- Repository signature: Embedded in `x86_64-repodata` metadata
+
+### 3. Install and update with client that fetched old index
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Demonstrated full lifecycle:
+
+1. Fresh install of v0.3.5 from repository with only v0.3.5 in index
+2. Added v0.3.6 to index and committed to `stable` branch
+3. Client performed `xbps-install -Syu` and upgraded from 0.3.5 → 0.3.6
+
+The upgrade was detected and executed without manual intervention:
+```
+fenris (0.3.5_1 -> 0.3.6_1)
+```
+
+### 4. Cache behavior and binary size limits
+
+**Result: PASS (with documented caveat)**
+
+Cache behavior:
+- Gitea raw endpoint: `cache-control: public, max-age=21600` (6-hour cache)
+- ETag changes on each commit (different file hash)
+- Conditional requests with old ETag return 200 (full content), not 304
+
+xbps-install behavior:
+- `-M -S` fetches fresh repodata while bypassing the on-disk cache
+- The ordinary `-S` path can reuse a cached repodata archive
+- No 6-hour delay observed in practice
+
+Binary size limits:
+- Test packages: 731–752 bytes (small test artifacts)
+- Real packages expected to be <10MB (vendored pure-Python)
+- Gitea serves any file size without LFS
+
+**Caveat**: Clients using `xbps-install -Su` or `-Syu` without `-M` may use
+cached repodata. Users should use `-M -Syu` for updates when immediate
+publication visibility matters.
+
+### 5. Publish index/artifacts together, preserve older artifacts, safe failure recovery
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Publication mechanism:
+- Index and new package committed together in single Git commit
+- Older package artifacts retained in tree (e.g., v0.3.5 alongside v0.3.6)
+- Clients with cached older indexes can still download older packages
+
+Failure recovery:
+- Demonstrated with simulated corruption (corrupted repodata committed)
+- Recovery via `git revert` restored correct state
+- Previous state accessible via Git history at all times
+
+### 6. Record results and publication mechanism
+
+**Result: PASS**
+
+Publication script created: `scripts/xbps-publish.sh`
+- Automates: build → sign → clone repo → update index → commit → push
+- Supports `--dry-run` and `--publish` modes
+- Follows same pattern as existing `scripts/release.sh`
+
+Makefile targets added:
+- `package-xbps` — Build XBPS package
+- `sign-xbps` — Sign XBPS package
+- `xbps-publish` — Publish to distribution repository
+- `xbps-publish-dry-run` — Dry-run publication
+

+  README.md
+```
+
+## Client Configuration
+
+Users add the repository to `/etc/xbps.d/xbps.conf`:
+```
+repository=https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris-xbps/raw/branch/stable/x86_64
+```
+
+Or install directly:
+```sh
+sudo xbps-install -S https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris-xbps/raw/branch/stable/x86_64
+```
+
+## Publication Mechanism
+
+1. Build: `make package-xbps`
+2. Sign: `make sign-xbps` (or `scripts/xbps-publish.sh` handles this)
+3. Publish: `make xbps-publish`
+4. Verify: Check raw URL returns HTTP 200
+
+The publication script (`scripts/xbps-publish.sh`) automates the full flow:
+build → sign → clone repo → add to index → sign repository → commit → push.
+
+## Dependencies for Subsequent Tickets
+
+- **Issue #86** (Publish validated package formats): Uses this publication mechanism
+  for real Fenris packages instead of test artifacts.
+- **Issue #87** (Validate on Void machine): Uses the established repository URL
+  and signing infrastructure for end-to-end validation.

+## Install
+
+Install Fenris from its package channel after following the [package setup instructions](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/src/branch/main/README.md#install-from-package-recommended):
+
+```bash
+sudo apt update && sudo apt install fenris       # Debian / Ubuntu
+sudo dnf install fenris                          # Fedora
+sudo zypper install fenris                       # openSUSE Tumbleweed
+sudo xbps-install fenris                         # Void Linux
+```
+
+For Void Linux, configure the XBPS repository first:
+
+```bash
+sudo xbps-install -S https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris-xbps/raw/branch/stable/x86_64
+```
+
+## Verify downloads
+
+```bash
+gpg --output SHA256SUMS --decrypt SHA256SUMS.asc
+sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
+```
+
+## Rollback
+
+Installing an older package over a newer observation store is unsupported. Restore the observation-store snapshot, then install the earlier Release; see the [upgrade and rollback guidance](https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/src/branch/main/README.md#upgrade).

+"""Init system abstraction for Fenris monitoring (issue #84).
+
+Detects the active init system (systemd or runit) and provides a unified
+interface for timer/collection control and service-state queries.  This keeps
+the privileged helper and status composition init-system agnostic without
+introducing a generalized plugin framework.
+
+Design: ADR 0008 — keep service-specific operations behind a cohesive
+responsibility shared by the privileged control path and read-only status
+composition.
+
+Runit service layout:
+  /etc/sv/fenris-collect/run        — scheduler (sleep 120; loop { collect; sleep 300 })
+  /etc/sv/fenris-collect/log/run    — logger to /var/log/fenris-collect/
+  /var/service/fenris-collect       — symlink to enable
+  /etc/sv/fenris-collect/down       — marker for dormant install
+
+Runit guarantees:
+  - Completion-relative 5-minute cadence (sleep 300 after each collect)
+  - Initial 2-minute boot delay (sleep 120 before first collect)
+  - Bounded execution (90s timeout via timeout(1))
+  - No catch-up (service sleeps fixed interval, no Persistent= flag)
+  - Serialized scheduled runs (runsv does not restart until exit)
+  - Serialized on-demand (flock serializes fenris-collect execution)
