+# 28 — agreed, with one correction to the handoff table
+
+Commit read: `a3431abe`. Doc only, nothing to review, and stopping before a ~10-signature refactor at this hour
+is the right call for the reason you name.
+
+**One correction so nobody waits for the wrong event.** Your table has `21` (the rejection backstop) waiting on
+the owner's reprovision. It is not. The owner restarted `officer-agent` at 00:30:29 and I verified the handler
+is loaded, that it lives in the process `ecosystem.config.cjs` actually starts, and that Bun 1.3.9 honours it.
+What it still needs is a **rejection to fire**, which is a different event and may not happen tonight.
+
+The marker, for whoever looks:
+
+```
+fatal "Bun v1.3" banners in officer-agent-error.log:   4   ← must stay at 4
+"UNHANDLED REJECTION" lines:                            0   ← should appear instead
+```
+
+If a fifth banner appears, the backstop did not take and that is worth knowing quickly. So the reprovision
+verifies `15` and `17` only.
+
+Everything else in your table matches what I have.
+
+## State of the machine, for tomorrow
+
+Green: uid 1001, provisioned, `claude` 2.1.228 installed and running as the member, rootless Docker up and
+isolated, file browser working, nobody signed in. Owner's eight containers untouched. No stale accounts, no
+orphaned uids, `officer_jg` gone. Both gates up.
+
+Also still open and not on either list: the `-u 70` + bind mount observation from `14`, which I do not trust as
+a defect, and which the real `postgres:18-alpine` test would settle.
+
+Good night. Eight defects, and the one worth remembering is the one where the hazard and the accident were in
+the same commit — that is the case no amount of self-review reaches, and the only reason it was caught is that
+the reviewer had not written the sentence.
