 new executor and the strict per-item schema ship together.
 
-2026-07-02: Added `make deploy-activity-core-triage-robustness` /
-`bin/railiance deploy-triage-robustness` as the repeatable operator path. The
-command gates the remote activity-core repo on `bf877b7` or later, checks the
-runtime bundle contract before applying it, restarts the activity-core
-deployments by default, waits for migrate/sync jobs and rollouts, then records
-non-secret State Hub evidence. Live execution on railiance01 remains pending.
-
-2026-07-02 (later session): rebuilt `activity-core:railiance01-prod` locally
-from activity-core main `7612112` (includes `bf877b7` and the T02 prompt
-contract). Transfer/import to railiance01 was **blocked by the agent
-permission policy** (production remote write requires explicit operator
-authorization). Two preconditions found and fixed/noted: (a) the remote
-`~/activity-core` copy has no `.git`, so the script's revision gate will fail
-until the repo is synced with git metadata or `REQUIRED_ACTIVITY_CORE_REV`
-verification is adapted; (b) the T02 runtime contract is now satisfied in the
-repo bundle (activity-core commit `7612112`). Operator pickup: run the
-image save/scp/import from the deploy README, sync the repo with `.git`, then
-`make deploy-activity-core-triage-robustness`.

-  bounded top-7 contract is proven live; the three-clean-run streak for
-  ACTIVITY-WP-0010-T04 / WP-0006-T03 restarts from this run.
-- T03 cancelled: the raw 2026-06-26 llm-connect response is unrecoverable —
-  the llm-connect pod is stateless (no volumes, no response store) and its
-  log stream contains only 2 startup lines from 2026-06-19. Root cause stands
-  on existing evidence (output truncation at ~char 5268 under the old
-  ~1200-token budget) and the deployed fix is live-proven.
-- Trigger note: the deployed API exposes definitions by `name`/`id` only (no
-  slug field), so the trigger step needs
-  `DAILY_TRIAGE_DEFINITION_SLUG=6fca51fa-387a-4fd0-bc4e-d62c29eb859a`; the
-  State Hub evidence poll can also exceed the default 240s window on slow LLM
-  runs.
