Every target host is at the tag. The one destructive step ran on six of them and was guarded by a count each time; alpha kept its table and its 8 rows. The finding is that `bun db:push` prints "Changes applied" unconditionally — it said so on an unchanged database, twice in a row. `--verbose` shows the truth: what it re-applies everywhere is pre-existing composite-key drift, and nothing touches dav_app_passwords on any host.

└── 2026.08.21.01.report.md what actually happened, written by the commander
The plan is written by hand before the release commit. The report is written by the deploy commander afterwards and pushed back here.
A release is a tag, deploy/<version>, and nothing else triggers a deploy — not a commit message,
not a branch. A tag cannot be written into prose by accident, which a code word can and which every
document about deploying does.
What marks a release deployed is LOCAL: $OFFICER_ROOT/data/deploys/<version>.done. Not the report.
If the lock were the pushed report, a failed push would mean the release looked undeployed and the next
tick would roll it out again — and pushes here fail for unrelated reasons. So the report is an artefact,
valuable and not load-bearing.
