fix(demo): keep each operator-report label on one line

The first recorded card split 'ANALYZE REQUESTS' and every 'FAILURE' label
across two lines, detaching each label from its count. Long CLI labels are
now folded into values (one wrapped failures line), the key column holds
only short keys, and the card was geometry-probed at the recording's phone
viewport before rebuilding: 706px of content in a 706px panel, no clipped
key.

+## Back up and restore the records an operator holds
+
+The app keeps the journal in the person's own browser, so the server has no diary to back up. What an
+operator can lose is the corpus: the append-only `manifest.jsonl` with its provenance records and its
+withdrawal tombstones, plus the derived images those records point at.
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py backup --source /srv/timmy-corpus --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --label nightly
+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py verify --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --manifest /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz.manifest.json
+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py restore --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --manifest /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz.manifest.json --target /srv/timmy-corpus.restore-check
+```
+
+Model weights, transient inference images, secrets, logs, and symlinks are refused by name, and every
+skipped path is listed in the manifest with its reason. Each stored member carries a SHA-256, the
+archive is reproducible, and a restore re-verifies every digest and the record counts before it writes
+anything — a tampered archive or a lost tombstone fails loudly instead of restoring quietly. See the
+[production runbook](docs/PRODUCTION-RUNBOOK.md) for topology, network boundaries, secrets, retention,
+and the rollback paths.

 Timmy does not diagnose disease, identify bleeding, infer pain/urgency, recommend treatment, or clear foods. The selected VLM is a bootstrap worker, not the final classifier. See [research/SELF-HOSTED-STOOL-VISION.md](research/SELF-HOSTED-STOOL-VISION.md) for the measured receipts, hardware gate, consented-data pipeline, specialist-classifier plan, and sources.
 
+The calibration harness ([scripts/calibration_report.py](scripts/calibration_report.py), [contract](docs/EVALUATION-HARNESS.md)) computes the ROADMAP release gates — macro-F1, precision-at-coverage, and calibration error — from prediction files, chooses a threshold on validation only, and refuses a corpus that leaks one contributor across two splits. Its committed fixtures are invented numbers that exercise the arithmetic: **no candidate model has been measured against these gates yet, and the harness itself is not evidence about accuracy.**
+
+The reviewer tool ([scripts/review_corpus.py](scripts/review_corpus.py), [contract](docs/REVIEWER-TOOL.md)) is the labeling control for that corpus, and it is a command-line tool with no screen in the app. The review queue shows the contributor's proposal and withholds every model field, a reveal is refused until a human has committed their own labels, a correction must actually change the proposal, adjudication is appended beside the review it resolves instead of overwriting it, and a withdrawn contribution cannot be queued, reviewed, revealed, adjudicated, or trained on. Unreviewed and excluded samples are never training data. It records decisions; it does not measure a model.
+
+What the corpus is, and what a label may assert, is published rather than implied: [docs/DATASET_CARD.md](docs/DATASET_CARD.md) is generated from the manifest by [scripts/dataset_card.py](scripts/dataset_card.py), so every count on it is read back from real records and every fact the pipeline does not collect (devices, contexts, licenses) is printed as `pending` instead of estimated — a card for a corpus where one contributor straddles two splits is refused, not published. [docs/LABELING_GUIDE.md](docs/LABELING_GUIDE.md) is the reviewer's rulebook: visible form, broad visible color, and photo quality only, visible color is not blood, nothing is diagnosed, and a model suggestion is provisional input to a human decision rather than the label.
+
+The release candidate is attacked before anyone is asked to trust it. [scripts/security_attack_suite.mjs](scripts/security_attack_suite.mjs) drives the real server with synthetic hostile bytes — an oversized body, an HTML polyglot dressed as a JPEG, undecodable bytes, a request without consent, a worker answer that breaks the schema, a byte-identical replay, and a concurrent burst — while a counting stub worker records every call that reaches the model boundary. [docs/RC-SECURITY-EVIDENCE.md](docs/RC-SECURITY-EVIDENCE.md) owns the rule: any failing P0 case blocks RC approval, and a required class with no executable evidence blocks it too. **It currently returns `VERDICT: BLOCKED`** — bytes are still trusted from the data-URL label, so a hostile file reaches the worker before it fails on schema. That is a published finding against [#16](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/16), not a passing check.

+# Abstention policy
+
+Issue #32 asks for raw model scores to be turned into a conservative suggestion policy. This is that
+policy. It is the only thing that decides whether Timmy offers a visual prefill, and it answers two
+different questions that are easy to confuse:
+
+1. **Per photo** — is this individual answer good enough to show?
+2. **Per release** — has a candidate model earned the right to prefill at all?
+
+Both are implemented in [`src/abstention-policy.js`](../src/abstention-policy.js). The parser in
+[`src/analysis.js`](../src/analysis.js) reads its limits from that module rather than carrying its own
+copy, so a policy change is one edit, not three.
+
+A suggestion is never a diagnosis, never fills in urgency, discomfort, symptoms, or notes, and is
+never saved until the user confirms it. Abstention is the default; a prefill is the exception.
+
+## Why quality is a gate, not a footnote
+
+`imageQuality` is something the model reports about its own photo. A confident form and colour read
+from a blurry photo is exactly the answer a user is most likely to accept without thinking, so
+confidence alone cannot authorise a prefill. The policy accepts `good` and `fair`; `poor` abstains
+regardless of how confident the reply looked. This is proven end to end by the committed corpus case
+`poor-quality-confident`, which replays a 0.94-confidence answer about the synthetic motion-blur
+fixture and expects an abstention.
+
+## Per-photo gates
+
+Evaluated in this order. The first gate that fails names the refusal, so the user is told the real
+reason rather than a generic one.
+
+| Order | Gate | Refusal (`abstainedFor`) | User-facing copy |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | Model says the photo is not clearly stool | `not_stool` | The image does not clearly show stool. |
+| 2 | Confidence below `minConfidence` (0.55) | `low_confidence` | The image is too uncertain to prefill safely. |
+| 3 | Form or colour came back blank | `unusable_visual_fields` | The photo does not show a form Timmy can read safely. |
+| 4 | `imageQuality` is below the accepted levels | `low_quality` | The photo is too blurry or poorly lit to suggest a form safely. |
+
+A filled-in field outside the contract (`bristolType` outside 1–7, an unknown `color`, an unknown
+`imageQuality`) is not an abstention — it **fails closed** with no provider detail shown, because a
+caller must never be told "the photo was unreadable" when the model actually returned an impossible
+value. That ordering is covered by the corpus escape cases (`out-of-range-fields`,
+`blank-plus-out-of-range`).
+
+Unknown and out-of-distribution images can only be judged from what the schema lets the model say: it
+must declare `isStool`, a confidence, and a quality. There is no separate OOD channel, and this policy
+does not invent one. A photo the model cannot place therefore lands on `not_stool`, `low_confidence`,
+or `low_quality` — all three abstain.
+
+## Per-release gate
+
+The calibration harness ([`scripts/calibration_report.py`](../scripts/calibration_report.py), issue
+#29) scores candidates on a held-out test split with a threshold selected on validation only. The
+policy turns that report into a single decision with `evaluatePrefillGate(report)`:
+
+| Requirement | Blocked reason if unmet |
+|---|---|
+| Report verdict is `GO` | `calibration-verdict-not-go` |
+| The report names a recommended candidate | `no-recommended-calibration` |
+| That candidate's threshold was selected on `validation` | `threshold-not-selected-on-validation` |
+| That candidate was scored on the held-out `test` split | `gate-not-scored-on-held-out-test` |
+| That candidate passed every release gate | `candidate-failed-release-gates` |
+
+A missing or unreadable report is a block, never a default allow.
+
+Run it as a receipt:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/calibration_report.py \
+  --predictions tests/fixtures/calibration/predictions.jsonl \
+  --min-coverage 0.5 --json /tmp/calibration-report.json
+
+node scripts/abstention_policy_receipt.mjs --report /tmp/calibration-report.json
+# exit 0 = prefill authorised, 3 = blocked, 2 = the report could not be read
+```
+
+**Current state:** the committed synthetic predictions produce `BLOCKED`, so the receipt exits 3 and
+names why. No production candidate exists yet — issue #31 (fine-tuned classifier) is the dependency —
+and the policy exists so that candidate is held to one stated contract instead of whatever it happens
+to score. The release builder does not gate on this receipt yet; it records the quality gate on camera
+through the demo instead. Wiring the receipt into `scripts/build_release.py` as a hard prefill gate
+belongs with #31, when there is a candidate to judge.
+
+## Versioning
+
+`ABSTENTION_POLICY.version` is an integer that changes whenever a limit changes. A policy change is a
+behaviour change: the release notes must be able to say which policy produced a suggestion. The
+shipped object is frozen so nothing can tighten or loosen it at runtime; callers that need a
+different policy pass one explicitly (`parseVisionResponse(raw, policy)`), which is how the tests
+prove the parser has no hidden limits of its own.
+
+## What this policy does not do
+
+- It does not decide the Bristol type, the colour, or the quality. It only decides whether to show
+  them.
+- It does not touch deterministic red-flag escalation, which runs independently of model state.
+- It does not read, store, or log an image, and it never inspects inference bodies.
+- It does not set the numeric thresholds from anything but validation data, and it does not convert a
+  `BLOCKED` calibration into a pass.

+# Corpus manifest contract
+
+The training corpus is described by an **append-only** `manifest.jsonl`. One line is one event;
+nothing is ever rewritten in place, so the trail can be audited after a withdrawal. The
+implementation lives in [`scripts/corpus_manifest.py`](../scripts/corpus_manifest.py) and is
+driven by [`scripts/ingest_training_photo.py`](../scripts/ingest_training_photo.py).
+
+## Sample record (`recordType: "sample"`, schema version 2)
+
+| Field | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `contributionId` | Opaque id minted by the app's contribution receipt. The same id addresses every derived artifact and every later tombstone. |
+| `consent.version`, `consent.recordedAt` | The consent version the contributor accepted, and when. Duplicated as `consentVersion` for older readers. |
+| `source.kind`, `source.inputSha256` | How the bytes arrived (`cli-ingest`) and the digest of the caller's input. The caller's path is never recorded. |
+| `hashes.rawInput`, `hashes.derived` | Digest of the supplied bytes and of the re-encoded image that is actually stored. |
+| `derivation` | `format`, `maxDimension`, `metadataStripped`, and the `pipeline` version that produced the derived image. |
+| `review.status`, `review.reviewedAt` | `user-confirmed` or `clinician-reviewed`. A label set is never unlabelled-by-default. |
+| `split` | `train`, `validation`, or `test`, derived from the salted subject key so one contributor never straddles splits. |
+| `subjectKey` | 16-hex pseudonym derived from a salted subject id. Never a name, email, or account. |
+| `lifecycle.state`, `lifecycle.updatedAt` | `active` while the sample is usable for training. |
+| `imageId`, `relativePath` | Derived image digest and its dataset-relative path. |
+
+## Tombstone record (`recordType: "tombstone"`)
+
+A withdrawal never deletes history; it appends a tombstone that:
+
+- keeps `contributionId` and `imageId` so the withdrawal can be matched to the original sample,
+- records `lifecycle.state: "revoked"`, the timestamp, and the reason,
+- lists `deletedArtifacts` — every derived copy it removed, addressed by contribution id with the
+  digest that identifies the bytes,
+- deliberately drops `labels`, `subjectKey`, and `relativePath`: a deletion receipt keeps
+  identifiers and hashes, not the health label or the person.
+
+`revoke()` removes the derived image and any raw pre-derivation copy from the active dataset
+before appending the tombstone, and refuses any path that resolves outside the dataset root.
+
+## Lifecycle rules (all covered by `tests/corpus-manifest.test.py`)
+
+- `active` → `revoked` only, and only with a recorded reason.
+- `revoked` → `active` is refused: a revoked contribution cannot return to the active dataset.
+- Revoking an unknown contribution, or revoking twice, is refused and appends nothing.
+- A contribution id can be ingested once; the same derived image cannot carry two label sets.
+- `active_records()` returns only samples that are still `active` and were never tombstoned, so a
+  trainer that reads through it cannot silently train on withdrawn data.
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+export TIMMY_DATASET_SALT=...                       # >= 8 chars, never committed
+python3 scripts/ingest_training_photo.py \
+  --input photo.jpg --output-dir /srv/timmy-corpus \

+
+python3 scripts/ingest_training_photo.py --revoke "$CONTRIBUTION_ID" \
+  --output-dir /srv/timmy-corpus --reason "subject withdrawal"
+```
+
+`npm run test:corpus` runs the contract suite. Every fixture is synthetic; no real medical image
+is read, written, or committed.
+
+## Review and adjudication
+
+A manifest says what was ingested and whether the person still allows it. It does not say whether
+the labels are right. That decision lives in a separate append-only ledger,
+`<dataset>/reviews.jsonl`, written by [scripts/review_corpus.py](review_corpus.py) — see
+[REVIEWER-TOOL.md](REVIEWER-TOOL.md). The trainer reads `trainable_records()`, which returns only
+samples that are still active, carry a human decision, and were not excluded.

+## What this corpus is for
+
+Consented photos of stool, labelled by a human reviewer, for research on a stool-form
+classifier. The corpus may not be used to diagnose disease, to identify a person, or to
+train a model that speaks to a patient with clinical authority. A model's output stays
+provisional until the person logging confirms it: see [PRODUCT-DECISIONS.md](PRODUCT-DECISIONS.md).
+
+This corpus holds no consented images yet. Every count of zero below is a real count of
+an empty manifest, not a placeholder, and the pending facts stay pending until the
+pipeline collects them.
+
+## Contributor-level split policy
+
+Splits are derived from the salted pseudonymous subject key, never assigned per photo: the
+first byte of the key decides the split, `< 205` train, `< 230` validation, otherwise test
+(the ingestion rule in `scripts/ingest_training_photo.py`). One contributor's photos all land
+in one split, and this generator refuses a manifest where a subject key appears in two splits
+or where a recorded split is not the one its subject key derives. Both edges are stated here
+so the policy on this page is the policy in the code.
+
+| Split | Contributors | Active samples |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| `train` | 0 | 0 |
+| `validation` | 0 | 0 |

+diagnosis: [LABELING_GUIDE.md](LABELING_GUIDE.md) says what a label may and may not assert.
+
+## Exclusions and withdrawals
+
+A withdrawal appends a tombstone, deletes the derived image and any raw copy, and stays in the
+history. Contribution ids and reasons are published here because a deletion receipt is
+checkable; subject keys and labels are never published.
+
+No withdrawals are recorded.
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Composition (devices, contexts, licenses) is pending, so the corpus is not yet a
+  representative sample of anything and must not be described as one.
+- Review status is a human decision, not a clinical gold standard; `user-confirmed` means the
+  person who took the photo agreed with the proposal.
+- A held-out split measures generalization across contributors, not across a population.

+# Evaluation harness contract
+
+Issue #29 asks for the authoritative comparison and release-gate harness: macro-F1, per-class
+precision/recall, a confusion matrix, calibration error, coverage, and precision-at-coverage, over
+splits that are contributor-held-out and reproducible, comparing candidate models.
+
+The implementation is [`scripts/calibration_report.py`](../scripts/calibration_report.py). It reads
+predictions something else produced, and it refuses to compute gates it cannot honestly compute.
+
+The GO/BLOCKED verdict this report produces is consumed by the production abstention policy in
+[`docs/ABSTENTION-POLICY.md`](ABSTENTION-POLICY.md): a candidate that has not cleared these gates
+cannot authorise a visual prefill.
+
+**This harness does not train, does not diagnose, and never reads an image.** It only sees Bristol
+labels, predictions, and confidences.
+
+## Input
+
+One prediction record per line (JSONL), one file or many:
+
+```json
+{"model":"specialist-candidate","subjectKey":"cd1a2b3c4d5e6f01","split":"validation",
+ "truth":{"bristolType":4},"prediction":{"bristolType":4,"confidence":0.97}}
+```
+
+| Field | Rule |
+|---|---|
+| `model` | Non-empty. Candidates are grouped by this value, so one file may carry several. |
+| `subjectKey` | The 16-hex pseudonymous key from the corpus manifest. Never a name, email, or account. |
+| `split` | `train`, `validation`, or `test`. |
+| `truth.bristolType` | Whole number 1–7. |
+| `prediction` | `{bristolType: 1–7, confidence: 0–1}`, or `null` when the candidate offered nothing. |
+
+A record that breaks any row above is refused (exit 2) rather than scored.
+
+## Splits are contributor-held-out and reproducible
+
+The split rule is the ingestion rule from `scripts/ingest_training_photo.py`: the first byte of the
+subject key picks the bucket — below `205` is `train`, below `230` is `validation`, otherwise `test`.
+Because the rule reads only the pseudonymous key, a split can be re-derived by anyone holding the
+manifest, and a corpus cannot quietly re-label itself.
+
+`assert_contributor_held_out()` refuses:
+
+- a `split` that does not match the one the subject key derives (not reproducible), and
+- one subject key appearing in more than one split (contributor leak) — a held-out score where the
+  model has already seen that person is not held out.
+
+Several photos from one contributor inside one split are fine; that is the normal case.
+
+## Metrics
+
+The harness is a *selective* classifier evaluation. A suggestion is **accepted** when it exists and
+its confidence is at or above the threshold; everything else is an abstention. Two abstention
+reasons are counted separately: `no-suggestion` and `low-confidence`.
+
+| Metric | Definition |
+|---|---|
+| `coverage` | accepted / total in the scored split. |
+| `precisionAtCoverage` | correct / accepted. The gate metric. |
+| `perClass[label]` | `precision`, `recall`, `f1`, `support`, `predicted` over accepted suggestions. |
+| `macroF1` | Mean of `perClass[*].f1` over the classes present in **accepted** truth. A class whose every photo abstained cannot be scored, so it is named in `excludedClasses` instead of being counted as a silent zero. |
+| `confusion` | `"truth->predicted": count` over accepted suggestions. |
+| `ece` | Expected calibration error over accepted suggestions in ten equal-width confidence bins, weighted by each bin's share. |
+
+Calibration is measured on the same accepted set as precision, so a candidate cannot look calibrated
+by abstaining out of its worst bins.
+
+## Threshold protocol
+
+`select_threshold()` takes the coverage floor and returns the threshold with the highest
+precision-at-coverage among the cuts that still clear that floor, breaking ties toward wider coverage.
+It reads the **validation split only** and raises otherwise: choosing a threshold on the data the gate
+is measured on manufactures whatever precision the report needs.
+
+`compare()` therefore fixes one threshold per candidate on validation, scores that candidate on test,
+and never looks back at validation scores.
+
+## Gates
+
+Taken from the ROADMAP release gates. All limits are inclusive — a candidate exactly on the line passes.
+
+| Gate | Limit |
+|---|---|
+| `macroF1` | ≥ 0.80 |
+| `precisionAtCoverage` | ≥ 0.90 |
+| `ece` | ≤ 0.05 |
+
+A candidate must clear all three on its held-out split. `verdict` is `GO` only when at least one
+candidate does; `recommended` is the passing candidate with the highest macro-F1 (then precision).
+Otherwise the verdict is `BLOCKED` and no candidate is recommended.
+
+## Run it
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/calibration_report.py \
+  --predictions tests/fixtures/calibration/predictions.jsonl \
+  --min-coverage 0.5 --json /tmp/calibration-report.json
+
+npm run test:calibration    # the harness contract suite
+```
+
+| Exit code | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| 0 | `GO` — a candidate cleared every gate. |
+| 3 | `BLOCKED` — the release gate refuses every candidate. |
+| 2 | Refused — malformed, leaky, or unreproducible input. Nothing was scored or written. |
+
+`--json PATH` writes the full report (per-class rows, confusion matrix, calibration bins, gate detail).
+The report is only written after a successful run.
+
+## Fixtures
+
+[`tests/fixtures/calibration/`](../tests/fixtures/calibration/README.md) holds synthetic predictions
+that exercise `BLOCKED`, `GO`, and the leaked-corpus refusal. They are invented numbers on fabricated
+subject keys: **no model produced them and they say nothing about the real classifier.** Recording a
+video or writing a report from them means saying so.

+# Labeling guide — Timmy corpus review
+
+This is the guide a human reviewer follows when labelling a contributed photo in
+[`scripts/review_corpus.py`](../scripts/review_corpus.py). It exists so a label in the corpus means
+the same thing to every reviewer, and so a model trained on those labels cannot quietly inherit a
+clinical claim nobody made. The corpus it describes is summarised, from the manifest and never by
+hand, in [DATASET_CARD.md](DATASET_CARD.md).
+
+A label is an observation. It is **not** a diagnosis, not a severity assessment, and not a statement
+about the person's health.
+
+## What a reviewer may record
+
+Three fields, all of them visible in the photo:
+
+| Field | Vocabulary | Rule |
+|---|---|---|
+| `bristolType` | 1–7 | The Bristol form the sample most resembles, by shape and surface — not by how the person says they feel. |
+| `color` | `brown`, `green`, `yellow`, `pale`, `red`, `black` | The **broad visible color** of the sample in the photo. |
+| `quality` | `good`, `fair`, `poor` | Whether the photo supports a confident form and color call at all. |
+
+`quality` is about the photo, not the person: glare, blur, framing, and distance. A `poor` photo
+belongs in the corpus as a `poor` photo; it is not a reason to guess a higher-quality label, and
+`review_corpus.py` excludes an unclear sample from training instead of filling the gap.
+
+## Color is not blood
+
+The single most damaging mistake available here. Visible color describes what the photo looks like;
+it does not establish that blood is present:
+
+- `red` means **the sample looks reddish in this photo**. It is **not blood**, and it is not
+  "bleeding". A reviewer never writes "blood" into a label, a comment, or an exclusion reason.
+- `black` means **the sample looks black or very dark in this photo**. It is not "melena", not
+  "GI bleed", and not evidence of anything.
+- Neither field may be used to reassure. A `brown` label is **not** a statement that there is no
+  bleeding; a photo cannot rule that out and the app does not claim it can.
+- Blood, black or tarry stool, pain, urgency, fever, or vomiting are **user-reported** facts, asked
+  in words and routed to the deterministic red-flag path. They are never inferred from an image and
+  never stored as a label by this tool.
+
+If the photo genuinely shows something a reviewer believes needs urgent attention, the correct action
+is to stop labelling and escalate to the maintainers — not to encode a clinical judgement in a class.
+
+## Never diagnose
+
+- Do not diagnose, rule out, or name a disease, condition, or cause in any label, comment, or
+  exclusion reason.
+- Do not infer symptoms, pain, urgency, frequency, hydration, diet, medication, or pregnancy.
+- Do not grade severity ("mild", "concerning", "abnormal"). The vocabulary is form, color, and photo
+  quality only.
+- A model suggestion is **provisional input**, never the label. The reviewer's own committed decision
+  is the label; `review_corpus.py` refuses to reveal the model's answer until the reviewer has
+  committed theirs, and records any disagreement beside the proposal rather than averaging it away.
+
+## Exclusions
+
+Exclude a sample when it cannot be labelled honestly:
+
+| Situation | Action |
+|---|---|
+| No stool visible, or the photo is of something else | Exclude: `not-stool`. |
+| Photo too blurred, glared, or distant to judge form | Exclude: `unreadable-photo`. |
+| Two samples in one frame, or ambiguous framing | Exclude: `ambiguous-frame`. |
+| Reviewer believes the image needs urgent clinical attention | **Stop.** Escalate to maintainers; do not label, do not exclude quietly. |
+| Contributor withdrew consent | Not a review decision: the manifest tombstones the contribution and the queue drops it. |
+
+An exclusion is recorded with a reason from the list above. An excluded sample is never training
+data, and re-including it requires a new review, not an edit.
+
+## Splits: one contributor, one split
+
+All of a contributor's photos stay in **one split**, decided by their salted pseudonymous subject key
+(`< 205` train, `< 230` validation, otherwise test — the ingestion rule in
+`scripts/ingest_training_photo.py`). A reviewer never chooses a split, and a reviewer never moves a
+sample between splits to balance a class. If a class is thin, the honest answer is more consented
+contributors, not a leaked one. `scripts/dataset_card.py` refuses to publish a card for a corpus
+where one subject key appears in two splits.

+| `model` | Answers (`suggestion` / `abstained`), classified failures, readiness phase, and model-work latency. | Anything decided before a slot was taken. |
+
+`abstentionRate` is `abstained / (suggestion + abstained)`; it is `null` until the model has answered
+at least once. A failed request is **not** an abstention — an outage must not look like a cautious
+model.
+
+`latency.bucketsMs` is cumulative: `"5000"` counts every sample at or below 5 s. `coldLoadMs` is the
+interval from process start to the first observation in which the pinned model was resident; a worker
+that flaps back to `offline` keeps the original figure.
+
+`readiness.phase` uses the same vocabulary the browser uses for the AI affordance (`checking`,
+`disabled`, `offline`, `loading`, `ready`), and the value is produced by the same
+`visionReadiness()` function the app renders, so a metric and a screen cannot disagree.
+
+## What can never appear in it
+
+The only strings this module stores are members of three frozen lists — outcomes, failure classes,
+and readiness phases — plus a fixed latency-bucket edge set. Anything else is bucketed, not copied:
+
+- an unrecognised outcome becomes `failure`;
+- an unrecognised failure class becomes `unexpected`;
+- an unrecognised readiness phase becomes `checking`.
+
+Therefore no note text, no image bytes, no image hash or fingerprint, no subject key, no caller
+address, and no session or cookie value can reach a label. `tests/model-metrics.test.js` asserts this
+by feeding hostile strings into every label position, and
+`tests/metrics-endpoint.acceptance.test.js` asserts it through the shipping server.
+
+## Reading it
+
+```bash
+curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer $TIMMY_METRICS_TOKEN" http://127.0.0.1:4173/api/metrics | jq .
+```
+
+For a quick look that does not need `jq`, the report renders the same snapshot as three labelled blocks:
+
+```bash
+TIMMY_METRICS_TOKEN=... node scripts/model_metrics_report.mjs --url http://127.0.0.1:4173
+```
+
+Exit codes are the point of the command as much as the numbers: `0` means a snapshot was rendered,
+`1` means the server answered non-200 (404 says the route is disabled because no token is configured,
+403 says the supplied token was rejected), `2` means the command itself was called wrongly or the
+server could not be reached. The token is read from the environment or `--token` and is never echoed
+in the report or in an error line.
+
+What the numbers mean to an operator:
+
+| Signal | Reading |
+|---|---|
+| `readiness.phase: offline` | The worker is not answering. Manual logging is unaffected; do not restart the app for this. |
+| `readiness.phase: loading` | The worker answered but the pinned model is not resident. AI is withheld rather than offered and failed. |
+| `queue.atCapacity: true` | Every model slot is in use. Watch `latency.maxMs`; a growing figure with no completions is a stuck inference, not load. |
+| `failureClasses.provider_unreachable` climbing | Network or worker outage, not caller error. |
+| `failureClasses.schema_invalid` climbing | The worker is answering off-contract. Treat as a regression in the pinned model or prompt, not a user problem. |
+| `app.refusedBeforeModel` climbing with no model traffic | Abuse or a broken client; the model never saw it. |

+# Photo Data-Flow Threat Model — End-to-End Photo Path
+
+- **Status:** Accepted
+- **Issue:** [#20 — Write the end-to-end photo data-flow threat model](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/20)
+- **Parent epic:** [#5 — Clinical safety, privacy & security](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/5)
+- **Milestone:** M1 — Sovereign Photo Intelligence
+- **Date:** 2026-10-10
+- **Scope:** Every byte of a user's photo from capture to deletion on the `/api/analyze` path, plus the logs, exports, and consent records that touch it.
+
+## Why this exists
+
+Photo-first logging asks a user to hand Timmy an image of the most private output their body produces. That image is sensitive medical-adjacent data by default, so the data-flow boundaries must be explicit before any private beta, and every abuse case that is not yet fully mitigated must name an owner and a tracked remediation ticket. This model covers the browser, the API, the model worker, transient buffers, the training opt-in store, logs, exports, and deletion.
+
+## Product boundary (unchanged by this model)
+
+Timmy is non-diagnostic. AI may suggest only visible Bristol form, broad color, and image quality; every suggestion stays provisional until the user confirms or corrects it. Timmy must never diagnose disease, identify bleeding conclusively, infer pain, urgency, fever, or vomiting, or clear a food. Symptoms stay user-entered, and journal save is a separate decision from training contribution. Deterministic red-flag escalation runs on user-reported answers and is never model-gated or model-suppressible.
+
+No real medical images are ever added to this repository, its fixtures, its tests, or its Git history. Every fixture used in the photo path is synthetic.

+## Trust boundaries
+
+| # | Boundary | Trust posture |
+|---|---|---|
+| B1 | Browser to API ingress | Hostile network. Treat every upload as hostile and sensitive: sniff content, cap size and dimensions, rate-limit the client, and never trust the filename or declared MIME type. |
+| B2 | API ingress to model worker | Private loopback only. The worker is never exposed publicly and never receives a user identity. |
+| B3 | Model worker to provider or hosted profile | Disabled by default. When enabled, the operator carries the decision, the image is the only payload, and no ledger, symptom, or session data travels with it. |
+| B4 | App process to logs | One-way and lossy: counts, reasons, and durations leave; bytes, base64, filenames, and symptom text do not. |
+| B5 | App process to consent records | Contribution requires its own opt-in with a versioned receipt; journal save never implies contribution. |
+| B6 | Host to operator | The operator can reach data the app holds. Least privilege, documented purge, and no image bytes in operator-facing logs. |
+
+## Components
+
+### C1 — Browser
+
+Holds the captured image as an in-memory draft and renders the consent prompt. A photo awaiting consent is deliberately not written to storage, so it cannot survive the tab by accident, and the service worker never caches analysis requests or image bodies. Lifetime: until the tab closes, consent is refused, or the draft is cleared.
+
+### C2 — API ingress
+
+`server.mjs` `/api/analyze` is the only door for image bytes. It owns content sniffing, dimension and body caps, re-encode, metadata stripping, rate control, and the sanitized error vocabulary. Lifetimes are per request: nothing about an image is written to disk.
+
+### C3 — Model worker
+
+A self-hosted vision process bound to private loopback. It receives the re-encoded image and returns schema-constrained observable fields or an abstention. It returns no free text, and its output is provisional until the user confirms it.
+
+### C4 — Transient buffers
+
+Request body buffer, decode canvas, and the re-encode pipe. These are the moments the image exists in readable form; they are bounded, per request, and dropped when the request ends, on success or failure alike.
+
+### C5 — Training opt-in store
+
+Only images and labels a user explicitly contributed, each with consent version, receipt, and provenance. This store is not on the logging path: an ordinary journal save never reaches it.
+
+### C6 — Sanitized logs
+
+Operational logs for health, latency, abstention, and failure. They carry counts, reason codes, and durations; they never carry image bytes, base64, the original filename, or user symptom text.
+
+### C7 — Exports
+
+User-initiated JSON portability of the user's own ledger. Exports are generated on request, are not written server-side, and deliberately exclude photo bytes.
+
+### C8 — Deletion
+
+Withdrawal, purge, and tombstones. Deletion is addressable by contribution ID so it can reach derived artifacts, and a tombstone records that deletion happened without keeping what was deleted.
+
+## Threat register
+
+Each entry names the abuse case, the mitigation that is already committed or queued, the owning role, the tracked ticket that will prove the mitigation, and the artifact that will count as evidence.
+
+### T1 — Replay and re-submission
+
+- **Scenario:** An attacker replays a captured upload to exhaust inference capacity, correlate timing with a user session, or force repeated provider work from one image.
+- **Impact:** Denial of service for real users, cost amplification on hosted profiles, and weak linkage between a session and its image bytes.
+- **Mitigation:** Per-client fixed-window rate control on `/api/analyze` that fails with `429` and `Retry-After` before any provider work, opaque client identity held server-side rather than in the image payload, and no retention of over-limit payloads.
+- **Owner:** Timmy (ingress, area/backend)
+- **Testable follow-up:** #16
+- **Evidence:** An ingress test that drives the limiter past its window and asserts a rejected request never reaches the provider, with a separate assertion that no over-limit payload is retained.
+
+### T2 — Oversized input
+
+- **Scenario:** A decompression bomb, an enormous dimension count, or a multi-hundred-megabyte body arrives to consume worker memory, block the queue, or stall the request path indefinitely.
+- **Impact:** Worker exhaustion and queue starvation that degrade logging availability, up to a full outage of photo analysis.
+- **Mitigation:** Decoded-body, per-dimension, and timeout caps enforced before any provider or worker work; a bounded inference queue with cancellation and an overload fallback that returns the manual path instead of hanging.
+- **Owner:** Timmy (ingress, area/backend)
+- **Testable follow-up:** #17
+- **Evidence:** A queue-full and body-timeout test proving the request is rejected inside its budget and that the manual Bristol path remains one action away, per the acceptance criteria of #17.
+
+### T3 — Metadata leakage
+
+- **Scenario:** An uploaded photo carries EXIF, GPS, device identifiers, XMP, or PNG text chunks; or a failure path echoes base64 image bytes into an error message or a log line.
+- **Impact:** Location and device deanonymization, plus durable copies of the image outside the intended boundary, including in logs.
+- **Mitigation:** Content sniffing independent of filename and MIME, safe re-encode to baseline JPEG with a fixed argv, metadata dropped by construction, polyglot and malformed inputs rejected, and a fixed sanitized error vocabulary with no bytes, no base64, and no stack traces.
+- **Owner:** Timmy (ingress, area/backend)
+- **Testable follow-up:** #16
+- **Evidence:** A re-encode test asserting EXIF, GPS, XMP, and PNG text chunks are absent from the accepted bytes, paired with a log-scan test asserting no image bytes or base64 appear in request or error logs.
+
+### T4 — Dataset poisoning
+
+- **Scenario:** Mislabeled, duplicated, or adversarially crafted contributions enter the training corpus and shift the classifier toward a wrong or unsafe behavior, including teaching it to call a not-stool image a stool form.
+- **Impact:** Silent accuracy loss that is invisible in aggregate metrics and could undermine abstention exactly where the product must fail closed.
+- **Mitigation:** Immutable provenance per contribution, contributor-level splits so a single contributor cannot straddle train and evaluation, a reviewer and adjudication tool for form, color, quality, and exclusions, and a published dataset card with the labeling guide and split policy.
+- **Owner:** Privacy reviewer (human gate), with Timmy as release authority
+- **Testable follow-up:** #29
+- **Evidence:** The contributor-held-out evaluation harness and calibration report, with the reviewer and adjudication tool as the labeling control.
+
+### T5 — Unauthorized training
+
+- **Scenario:** A journal save is silently treated as consent, an image is trained on without a receipt, or a withdrawal fails to reach a derived artifact so contribution survives deletion.
+- **Impact:** Use of private data without consent, which breaks the product promise and the beta consent gate, and is irreversible once a model is trained.
+- **Mitigation:** Contribution is a separate opt-in decision with a versioned consent receipt shown before the data moves; journal save defaults to no contribution; withdrawal is addressable by contribution ID and reaches every derived artifact; journal saving never requires contribution.
+- **Owner:** Privacy reviewer (human gate)
+- **Testable follow-up:** #24
+- **Evidence:** An opt-in and withdrawal test proving journal save contributes nothing by default, that the consent version and receipt are shown before contribution, and that a withdrawal removes every derived artifact by contribution ID, with tombstone handling from #25.
+
+### T6 — Operator access
+
+- **Scenario:** The host operator — or anyone who reaches the host with the operator's privilege — reads image bytes, symptom text, or consent records from process memory, on-disk state, backups, or logs.
+- **Impact:** A single privileged reader can deanonymize a user's most private log, and an undocumented backup can outlive a deletion request.
+- **Mitigation:** Least-privilege host access, worker bound to private loopback with no public exposure, no image bytes or base64 in operator-facing logs, documented backup and rollback boundaries, and a purge procedure that names every place an image can exist.
+- **Owner:** Operator (host owner), with Timmy as release authority
+- **Testable follow-up:** #39
+- **Evidence:** The production topology, secrets, backup, and rollback runbook, exercised against the deletion path so that purge reaches memory, temporary files, logs, and backups, with observability from #41 confirming no bytes reach the metrics surface.
+
+## Ingress controls implemented for #16
+
+`/api/analyze` is the only route that accepts image bytes, and every limit below is decided inside
+`server.mjs` before `analyzePhoto` runs, so a refusal never costs a provider call.
+
+| Control | Where | Behaviour |
+|---|---|---|
+| Per-caller request budget | `src/rate-limit.js` | Sliding window, 12 requests per 60s by default (`TIMMY_ANALYZE_RATE_LIMIT`, `TIMMY_ANALYZE_RATE_WINDOW_MS`); refusal is `429` with `Retry-After`. The key is a salted SHA-256 of the socket address held in process memory only — no address, no identity, no bytes are stored. |
+| Body ceiling and deadline | `src/http-body.js` | 6 MB ceiling and a 15s deadline (`TIMMY_BODY_TIMEOUT_MS`); `413` and `408` respectively, and the half-read socket is dropped after the refusal is written. |
+| Container sniffing | `src/image-ingress.js` | The declared data-URL MIME is treated as a claim, never evidence: JPEG/PNG/WebP is decided from magic bytes, and a mismatch is refused. |
+| Polyglot / trailing payloads | `src/image-ingress.js` | The container is walked to its own end marker (PNG `IEND`, JPEG `EOI`, RIFF length); anything appended after the image is refused instead of forwarded. |
+| Embedded metadata | `src/image-ingress.js` | JPEG APP1/APP13/COM segments and PNG `eXIf`/`tEXt`/`zTXt`/`iTXt`/`tIME` chunks are refused. The app's own upload is a canvas re-encode (JPEG q0.7, longest edge 1200px) and carries none, so the accepted path is already metadata-free. |
+| Pixel limits | `src/image-ingress.js` | Dimensions are read from the header (PNG `IHDR`, JPEG SOF, WebP `VP8X`/`VP8`/`VP8L`) and refused above a 4096px edge or 16 megapixels, so a decode bomb never reaches the worker. |
+| Log hygiene | `server.mjs` | Refusal copy is fixed prose; no request body, image bytes, hash, or address is written to a log or returned in an error. |
+
+Residual, and not claimed as solved here: the server refuses metadata-bearing or mismatched
+containers rather than transcoding them itself, so a client that cannot produce a clean re-encode
+must use the app's capture path. PNG chunk CRCs are not validated (structure is), and the request
+budget is per process, not per cluster.
+
+## Accepted residual risks
+
+- **Host compromise.** Data in a running process can be read by a sufficiently privileged attacker. This is accepted for the private beta and bounded by least privilege plus the purge procedure in #39; it is not claimed as eliminated.
+- **Model accuracy.** The photo prefill remains blocked behind abstention and specialist-model evidence. A wrong or confident suggestion is treated as a user-correction problem, and the user remains the author of every saved entry, per #32 and the calibration work in #4.
+- **Provider profiles.** A hosted OpenAI-compatible profile moves the image off-host by definition. It stays opt-in, operator-controlled, and off by default, with readiness reporting before it is offered, per #19.
+
+## Verification
+
+- This document is enforced by `tests/threat-model.test.js`, which asserts that the diagram covers every byte-bearing component, that each required abuse case is a numbered threat with an owner and a tracked follow-up ticket, and that the model keeps the non-diagnostic boundary and ships no real medical images.
+- The test runs in `npm test` and therefore inside the CI quality gate and the release build, so the threat model cannot silently drift from the code it describes.
+- The ingress controls above are enforced by `tests/image-ingress.test.js`, `tests/rate-limit.test.js`, `tests/http-body.test.js`, and `tests/analyze-ingress.acceptance.test.js`, which runs the shipping server against synthetic bytes and a counting provider stub; `tests/ingress-capture.acceptance.mjs` proves the same refusal in the running app. All of them run in `npm test` or the browser gate, so a regression fails the release instead of a promise.
+- Boundary and boundary-adjacent claims are reviewed by the clinical and privacy gate (#22, #23) before beta; this model does not move that gate, it feeds it.

 Logging must never depend on AI availability. When the vision worker is offline, disabled, or still unknown, the photo-first flow offers no AI action and no analysis-consent prompt, and manual Bristol entry remains one action away from every photo step.

+
+Contributing a confirmed photo to training is a second consent, not a side effect of logging. A journal save is never a training contribution; a contribution exists only after the person reads the current consent version and its receipt (contribution id, what is included, what is never included) and accepts it explicitly.

+# Production topology, secrets, backup, and rollback
+
+This runbook answers one question for the operator: how do the parts of Timmy run, what may they
+reach, what must never be lost, and how does each part come back? It covers the pieces that exist in
+this tree today — the Node app, the private vision worker, the private staging directory, and the
+consented corpus. It does not describe a training fleet, a cloud account, or a hosted database,
+because this build has none.
+
+Everything below is run by automation or by one operator on the host. Nothing here is performed by a
+participant, and no step needs a public endpoint.
+
+## Topology
+
+| Process | Entry point | Holds | Restart unit |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| App and API | `node server.mjs` on `HOST=127.0.0.1 PORT=4173` | Nothing durable. Serves the PWA, proxies `/api/vision/*`, and gates `/api/agent/*` behind an access code. | `timmy-staging.service` (staging), `node server.mjs` (local) |
+| Vision worker | `deploy/worker/run_worker_container.sh` | The pinned GGUF weights, mounted read-only from the host. | `scripts/run_selfhost_smolvlm.sh start`, container restart policy |
+| Staging releases | `/opt/timmy-staging/releases/<40-character-commit>` with a `current` symlink | Immutable release trees plus the mode-600 environment file. | `timmy-staging.service` |
+| Consented corpus | `/srv/timmy-corpus` | `manifest.jsonl` (append-only provenance and tombstones) and `images/` derived from consented contributions. | none — file data |
+| Caddy | host Caddy | Terminates TLS and routes `/git/` to Gitea and `/timmy-staging/` to the app. | host Caddy |
+
+The app is stateless for a reason: there is **no server-side copy of the journal**. A person's logs
+and photos live in their own browser storage, and they hold the portable JSON backup. The server
+holds no diary, so a lost server loses no one's health record — only the operator records listed
+above can be lost, and only those are backed up here.
+
+Health and readiness are separate, and the probe reports readiness only:
+
+```
+GET /api/healthz  ->  {"ok":true,"release":"<tag>","commit":"<commit>","visionEnabled":<bool>,"agentEnabled":<bool>}
+```
+
+`visionEnabled` and `agentEnabled` say whether the feature is configured, never which key or endpoint
+is configured. The worker answers `/v1/models` before its pinned model is resident, so readiness
+means "served a request from the loaded model", not "the port is open" — `scripts/worker_ready.sh`
+enforces that distinction and the app withholds the AI control until it passes.
+
+## Network boundaries
+
+- The app reads `HOST` and its own default is `0.0.0.0`, which is a local-development convenience and
+  not the deployment. The deployment sets `HOST=127.0.0.1` in the mode-600 environment file
+  (`deploy/timmy-staging.env.example` is the template) and is reachable from outside solely through
+  the Caddy `/timmy-staging/` subpath. A bare `node server.mjs` on a shared host listens on every
+  interface — treat that as a laptop command, never as a production start.
+- The Gitea `/git/` catch-all is declared before the staging route and must stay reachable across
+  every Caddy reload.
+- The vision worker binds `127.0.0.1:8080` and is never published: `deploy/worker/run_worker_container.sh`
+  refuses a non-loopback publish host instead of warning about it, and no route in `server.mjs`
+  forwards arbitrary paths to the worker — the only vision endpoints are `/api/vision-status` and the
+  analysis request.
+- Outbound from the host is limited to the pinned model download during bootstrap, which is refused
+  unless both SHA-256 receipts match. After that the worker needs no egress at all.
+- Inference bodies and image bytes are never logged, and no reverse-proxy access log retains a
+  request body. A backup that contained them would be a second copy of someone's photo, so they are
+  excluded by the tool rather than by the operator remembering.
+- No participant-facing endpoint requires an inbound port, a DNS record, or a cloud credential.
+
+## Secrets
+
+Five secrets exist, and every one of them is injected at runtime:
+
+| Secret | Source | Scope |
+|---|---|---|
+| `TIMMY_DATASET_SALT` | mode-600 environment file on the host | Corpus subject keys and split assignment. Rotating it re-splits future ingests, so it is not rotated casually. |
+| Vision provider key or worker token | mode-600 environment file on the host | Only the app process reads it; the browser never receives it. |
+| Agent access code | mode-600 environment file on the host | Unlocks `/api/agent/unlock`; the cookie it mints is `HttpOnly` and same-origin. |
+| `TIMMY_METRICS_TOKEN` | mode-600 environment file on the host | Optional. Bearer token for the operator-only `/api/metrics` snapshot. When it is unset the route returns 404, so an unconfigured deployment exposes no counters at all. |
+| Gitea access token | local operator shell or secret store | Issue and PR automation only. It is never written into a release tree, an archive, or a log. |
+
+Rules:
+
+- Never commit a secret, and never pass one on a command line that lands in shell history. Use the
+  environment file (`chmod 600`, owned by the service user) or the systemd `EnvironmentFile=`.
+- Placeholders in this document are angle-bracketed or environment references, e.g.
+  `TIMMY_DATASET_SALT=<random 32+ characters, never committed>`. A literal value here is a bug.
+- `scripts/build_release.py` scans the cloned tree for private-key blocks and assigned credentials
+  and fails the release if it finds one, so a secret that reaches a commit is caught before it
+  reaches a release.
+- Rotation is: issue the replacement on the host, restart the unit, confirm `/api/healthz` and one
+  real inference request, then revoke the old value in the provider's own UI. Nothing in Git holds a
+  copy that would need rewriting.
+- The backup tool refuses `.env`, `*.env`, `*.key`, `*.pem`, `id_rsa`, `tokens.json`, and
+  `credentials.json` by name, so a backup can be copied off-host without carrying the keys that
+  operate the host.
+
+## Backup
+
+The operator records that cannot be rebuilt are the corpus `manifest.jsonl` and the derived images
+it points at. A tombstone is the only proof that a participant withdrew, so a backup that drops
+tombstone lines silently re-authorises training on withdrawn data. The tool treats that as a
+correctness bug, not a storage detail.
+
+`scripts/operator_backup.py` archives **only** records, and writes one manifest naming every byte it
+stored and every path it refused:
+
+- Stored: `manifest.jsonl`, derived images, and any receipt files under the data root.
+- Excluded, with the reason recorded: **model weights** (`model-weights` — re-downloadable, pinned by
+  hash), **transient inference** directories and uploads (`transient-inference` — a second copy of
+  someone's photo), **secret** files (`secret`), logs (`log`), symlinks (`symlink`), and anything over
+  `--max-bytes` (`oversize`).
+- Every stored member carries a SHA-256, and the archive is reproducible: sorted members, zeroed
+  timestamps and ownership, `gzip` with a fixed mtime. Two backups of unchanged records are
+  byte-identical, so "did anything change?" is answerable by digest.

+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py backup --source /srv/timmy-corpus --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --label nightly
+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py verify --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --manifest /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz.manifest.json
+```
+
+The command writes `<archive>.manifest.json` unless `--manifest` names another path, and prints a
+receipt with the stored file count, archive digest, and record counts (`samples`, `tombstones`,
+`activeSamples`). It refuses a source that is not a directory and refuses to overwrite an existing
+archive, so a nightly run cannot erase the previous night.
+
+Retention: keep fourteen nightlies and the first backup of each month, and copy each archive plus its
+manifest off-host. Also keep a human-readable record of the counts: `verify` compares the archive
+against the manifest, and a restore compares the restored counts against both.
+
+What this backup deliberately does not cover: the browser-held journal (there is no server copy; the
+person's own portable export is the backup), model weights, and anything in the release tree, which
+is rebuilt from a commit by `scripts/build_release.py`.
+
+## Restore
+
+A restore never writes over live data. It verifies first, and it writes into a directory that must
+not exist or must be empty:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/operator_backup.py restore --archive /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz --manifest /srv/backups/timmy-nightly.tar.gz.manifest.json --target /srv/timmy-corpus.restore-check
+```
+
+In order, before the first byte is written:
+
+1. the manifest is loaded and its `schemaVersion` checked;
+2. every archive member is refused if it is a link, a non-regular file, an absolute path, a traversal
+   path, or a name the manifest never listed;
+3. every member's SHA-256 is recomputed and compared, and a mismatch stops the restore;
+4. a member the manifest lists but the archive lacks stops the restore.
+
+After the extract it recounts `manifest.jsonl` in the target and refuses if the counts differ from
+the backup, so a restore that silently lost a tombstone fails loudly. Then the operator compares the
+restored tree against the live one, and promotes it by moving the directories — the tool does not
+pretend to know which directory is authoritative.
+
+Restoring the person's own logs is a different operation and stays where it belongs: the app's
+import control accepts the JSON file they exported, upgrades an older version and says which version
+it read, and refuses a file from a newer Timmy without touching the ledger it would have replaced.
+
+## Rollback
+
+Two rollbacks exist, and only one of them is a live staging action.
+
+**Release rollback (staging).** Staging keeps one immutable directory per commit and a `current`
+symlink, so a rollback is a repoint, a restart, and a bounded health check that restores and verifies
+the previous release if the new one does not come up:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/deploy_staging.py status
+python3 scripts/deploy_staging.py rollback --commit <FULL_COMMIT>
+```
+
+The rollback path is exercised by `tests/staging-deploy.test.py`, which drives the real
+`scripts/deploy_staging.py` code against a rootless fixture (`--root`), including the case where the
+named commit has no immutable release directory, where the restart fails, and where the health probe
+never passes. That is the same code path the host runs; the difference is only the root.
+
+The live drill on the private staging host — promote a build, serve it, roll it back, and confirm the
+participant-facing page again — is a **human gate**, tracked under #53. This loop does not run that
+drill automatically, because a rolled-back staging host is being used for release testing at the time.
+
+**Data rollback (operator records).** The equivalent for the corpus is the restore above: verify,
+restore into a new directory, compare counts, then move it into place. A restore is never attempted in
+place, and a failed verify leaves the live directory untouched.

+# RC Security & Abuse Evidence (#40)
+
+The release candidate is attacked before users get to it. This page is the procedure and the rule,
+not a stored result: a pasted-in "all clear" is exactly the kind of evidence that stops being true
+after the next commit.
+
+## Run it
+
+```bash
+node scripts/security_attack_suite.mjs --json artifacts/security/rc-attack-report.json
+```
+
+Exit codes are part of the contract:
+
+| Exit | Meaning |
+|---:|---|
+| `0` | `VERDICT: GO` — every case matched its expectation. |
+| `1` | `VERDICT: BLOCKED` — at least one P0 case failed, or a required category has no executable evidence. |
+| `2` | The suite could not complete (target never became ready, vision disabled, no log captured). |
+
+The suite is a child process of nothing: it starts its own copy of `server.mjs` on a free loopback
+port, points it at a **counting stub worker**, and drives it with synthetic hostile bytes. It never
+contacts a real model provider, never uses a real medical image, and never touches a live user's data.
+
+## What it does and does not prove
+
+- It proves what this HTTP boundary did with the bytes it was handed, and whether the worker behind
+  it was called. The worker is a stub, so "the provider saw it" is a counted fact, not an inference.
+- It does **not** measure model quality, clinical accuracy, or the safety of the medical/non-diagnostic
+  boundary. Those live in the vision, escalation, and clinical-review issues.
+- Latency numbers describe the loopback boundary against a stub. They are not a model benchmark.
+
+## Cases
+
+| Case | Class | Severity | Expectation |
+|---|---|---:|---|
+| `ingress-oversized-body` | oversized | P0 | `413`, worker never called |
+| `ingress-polyglot-html` | polyglot | P0 | `400`, worker never called |
+| `ingress-garbage-bytes` | truncated | P0 | `400`, worker never called |
+| `consent-required` | consent | P0 | `400`, worker never called |
+| `model-output-malformed` | malformed | P0 | `503` neutral copy, provider text never echoed |
+| `replay-duplicate-request` | replay | P2 | identical answer, nothing stored server-side |
+| `flood-concurrency` | flood | P1 | burst meets a bound (`429`/overload), not an open pipe |
+| `log-leak-scan` | log | P0 | captured server log carries no image bytes |
+| `deletion-withdrawal` | deletion | P0 | out of surface — counted only when `tests/training-contribution.test.js` exists |
+
+## The rule
+
+`src/release-security-gate.js` owns the verdict, so it is testable rather than asserted:
+
+- A case passes only when **every** expected field matches the observation. A partial match fails and
+  names the field that broke (`status 400 expected, observed 200`).
+- **Any** failing P0 case blocks RC approval. P1/P2 failures are recorded as holds.
+- A required class with no executable evidence is `unproven` and blocks the release. Coverage may be
+  borrowed from another suite (`out-of-surface` + an evidence path) only after the runner verified
+  that file exists — otherwise it blocks.
+- The report is redacted before it is written, and assembly fails closed if any image bytes survive
+  redaction. Evidence that carries a photo is worse than no evidence.
+
+## Current state (read the run, not this line)
+
+This section used to predict **BLOCKED** until the ingress hardening in
+[#16](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/16) landed. With
+that ingress in place the same command returns **GO** on this tree, because the format is decided from
+the bytes rather than the data-URL label: `ingress-polyglot-html` and `ingress-garbage-bytes` are now
+refused with `400` before the worker is called, and an oversized body is refused with a `413` the
+caller can read instead of a dropped connection. Latency for the load phase is measured against a
+second target with the request budget opened up, so those samples are analyses rather than `429`
+refusals. Queue bounding is still [#17](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/17)
+and is held here as P1.
+
+Deletion is governed by the contribution ledger, not by this HTTP boundary; the case stays
+`covered-elsewhere` against `tests/training-contribution.test.js` and blocks if that file disappears.
+
+## Evidence hygiene
+
+- The report is written to `artifacts/security/` and must never be committed with a real photo in it.
+- The captured server log is scanned by the same detector (`containsImageBytes`) before it is quoted.
+- Error bodies are recorded as a 120-character snippet; the suite refuses to write a report that
+  still contains a data URI or a long base64 run.

+# Blind review and adjudication tool
+
+Contract for `scripts/review_corpus.py`, the labeling control named in the
+[photo data-flow threat model](PHOTO-DATAFLOW-THREAT-MODEL.md) and the gate in front of the
+[training corpus](CORPUS-MANIFEST.md). Issue [#26](https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com/git/stackchain/timmy-talking-turd/issues/26).
+
+The tool decides which samples a trainer is allowed to read. It is a command-line tool, not a
+screen in the app: there is no reviewer UI, and nothing here implies one.
+
+## The four invariants
+
+1. **The model answer is withheld until a human commits.** `build_queue()` takes no predictions at
+   all, so the queue cannot leak an answer it never receives. `reveal()` refuses to return anything
+   for a contribution with no committed review.
+2. **History is append-only.** A review is a line in `reviews.jsonl`. An adjudication is another
+   line that names the record it resolves (`resolvesRecord`, `resolves`). The review being
+   overruled is never edited, and no record is deleted.
+3. **A withdrawal beats every other answer.** A revoked contribution cannot be queued, reviewed,
+   revealed, adjudicated, or trained on. The refusal says it was withdrawn — not that it is
+   already reviewed — because the person's withdrawal is the fact that matters.
+4. **Unreviewed and excluded samples are not training data.** `trainable_records()` returns only
+   samples that are still active, carry a human decision, and were not excluded.
+
+## Review ledger records
+
+One JSON object per line in `<dataset>/reviews.jsonl`:
+
+```json
+{"schemaVersion":1,"recordType":"review","contributionId":"...","imageId":"<sha256>","proposed":{"bristolType":4,"color":"brown","quality":"good"},"reviewer":"reviewer-a","decision":"corrected","labels":{"bristolType":5,"color":"green","quality":"fair"},"committedAt":"2026-10-27T09:00:00+00:00"}
+{"schemaVersion":1,"recordType":"adjudication","contributionId":"...","imageId":"<sha256>","resolvesRecord":1,"resolves":{"reviewer":"reviewer-a","decision":"corrected"},"reviewer":"reviewer-b","decision":"upheld","labels":{"bristolType":5,"color":"green","quality":"fair"},"adjudicatedAt":"2026-10-27T10:00:00+00:00"}
+```
+
+- `proposed` copies the labels the reviewer judged, so a later manifest change cannot rewrite what
+  was reviewed.
+- `decision` is `agreed`, `corrected`, or `excluded` for a review, and `upheld`, `corrected`, or
+  `excluded` for an adjudication. An exclusion carries `exclusionReason` and no labels.
+- The ledger never carries `subjectKey`, note text, symptom answers, or image bytes.
+
+## A model answer file
+
+`reveal` reads predictions only to show what the reviewer could not see. A file may be one JSON
+document or one object per line:
+
+```json
+{"model":"<name>","answers":{"<contributionId>":{"bristolType":6,"color":"brown","quality":"good","confidence":0.71}}}
+```
+
+Keys may be contribution ids or derived image digests. `reveal` is a read: it appends nothing.
+When no answer file is supplied, `model` is `null` — the tool does not invent an answer.
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/review_corpus.py queue --dataset /srv/timmy-corpus
+python3 scripts/review_corpus.py review --dataset /srv/timmy-corpus \
+  --contribution "$CONTRIBUTION_ID" --reviewer reviewer-a --bristol 5 --color green --quality fair
+python3 scripts/review_corpus.py reveal --dataset /srv/timmy-corpus \
+  --contribution "$CONTRIBUTION_ID" --predictions answers.json
+python3 scripts/review_corpus.py adjudicate --dataset /srv/timmy-corpus \
+  --contribution "$CONTRIBUTION_ID" --reviewer reviewer-b --upheld
+python3 scripts/review_corpus.py trainable --dataset /srv/timmy-corpus
+```
+
+Every mutating command prints the record it appended. A refusal exits `2` and prints one line of
+plain copy on stderr.
+
+## Refusals (all covered by `tests/corpus-review.test.py`)
+
+| Attempt | Result |
+|---|---|
+| Review or reveal a withdrawn contribution | refused: `was withdrawn and cannot be reviewed, revealed, or trained on` |
+| Reveal before any review is committed | refused: `stays hidden until a review is committed` |
+| Review the same contribution twice | refused; adjudication is the only way to change a decision |
+| Correct a label to the value it already has | refused: a correction must change it |
+| Review with a blank reviewer id | refused |
+| Exclude without a reason | refused |
+| Review a contribution that has no active sample | refused |
+| Queue an active sample whose image is missing | refused: a reviewer cannot judge a file that is not there |
+| Adjudicate your own review | refused: adjudication needs a second reviewer |
+| Adjudicate twice | refused |
+| Adjudicate a contribution with no review | refused |
+
+## Known limits
+
+- One review per contribution, resolved by at most one adjudication. Re-review after an
+  adjudication would need a new record type; it is not implemented.
+- The tool does not measure or validate a model. It records what a human decided and what a model
+  answered, so the disagreement can be counted later.
+- It does not train, split, or export a dataset; `trainable_records()` is the list a trainer may
+  read, not a trainer.
+
+`npm run test:review` runs the contract suite. Every fixture is the committed synthetic image; no
+real medical image is read, written, or committed.

+"""Generate the published dataset card from the append-only corpus manifest (issue #27).
+
+A dataset card that is typed by hand drifts from the corpus it describes, and a card that estimates
+its own numbers is worse than no card at all. This generator therefore only reports what the manifest
+actually contains:
+
+- counts of active samples, contributors, and withdrawals,
+- the contributor-level split policy, checked before a single line is rendered,
+- class balance over the active samples only,
+- every fact the pipeline does not collect (devices, contexts, licenses) printed as ``pending``.
+
+Nothing is inferred. A person's pseudonymous subject key never reaches the page, and a withdrawn
+sample contributes no label to the balance tables. The output is a pure function of the manifest, so
+the committed card can be regenerated and compared byte for byte.
+
+Usage:
+    python3 scripts/dataset_card.py --corpus /srv/timmy-corpus
+    python3 scripts/dataset_card.py --corpus /srv/timmy-corpus --out docs/DATASET_CARD.md
+    python3 scripts/dataset_card.py --corpus /srv/timmy-corpus --check docs/DATASET_CARD.md
+    python3 scripts/dataset_card.py --corpus /srv/timmy-corpus --json
+
+Exit codes: 0 the card rendered (and matched, with --check); 1 the card on disk is out of date;
+2 the corpus cannot be described honestly and was refused.

+"""Operator backup and restore for the records Timmy must not lose.
+
+The app keeps the journal in the person's own browser, so the server side of Timmy holds no diary.
+What the operator does hold, and what cannot be rebuilt from anywhere else, is the corpus: the
+append-only ``manifest.jsonl`` with its provenance records and its withdrawal tombstones, plus the
+derived images those records point at. Losing that file loses the proof that a participant
+withdrew, which is the one receipt the project has promised to keep.
+
+This tool therefore:
+
+- archives only records, and names every path it refused to archive with the reason
+  (``model-weights``, ``transient-inference``, ``secret``, ``log``, ``symlink``, ``oversize``), so a
+  missing file is an auditable decision instead of a silent omission;
+- writes one SHA-256 per archived member and a reproducible archive (sorted members, zeroed
+  timestamps and ownership), so two backups of the same records are byte-identical;
+- verifies every digest, member name, and record count before a restore writes anything, and
+  refuses absolute, traversal, link, and unlisted members.
+
+Usage:
+
+    python3 scripts/operator_backup.py backup --source /srv/timmy-corpus --archive /srv/backups/timmy.tar.gz

+"""Tests for the operator backup and restore tool.
+
+Issue #39 asks for a production topology and a backup that a person can trust with the records
+Timmy is not allowed to lose. The corpus manifest is append-only and the tombstones in it are the
+only proof that a withdrawal happened, so a backup that quietly drops them, or a restore that
+rebuilds a training set from withdrawn contributions, is worse than no backup at all.
+
+The rules this suite locks in:
+
+- model weights and transient inference images are never archived, and every excluded path is
+  named in the manifest with the reason it was left out;
+- every archived byte carries a SHA-256 that ``verify`` recomputes before a restore writes
+  anything, so a tampered archive fails closed;
+- hostile members (absolute paths, traversal, links, unlisted extras) are refused instead of
+  extracted;
+- a restore round-trips the append-only manifest byte-for-byte and reports the same record counts,
+  including the tombstones.
+
+Every fixture is synthetic: the "images" are opaque bytes, no real medical image is read or written.

+"""Tests for the published dataset card and the contributor-level split policy.
+
+Issue #27 asks for three things a stranger can inspect before trusting a model: a dataset card that
+reports who is in the corpus, *the* labeling guide, and a contributor-level split policy that keeps a
+person's photos in exactly one split. The card is generated from the append-only manifest by
+[`scripts/dataset_card.py`](../scripts/dataset_card.py) instead of being written by hand, so a number
+on it is a claim the corpus can be re-checked against and an unknown fact can only appear as
+``pending`` — never as a plausible-looking estimate.
+
+Every fixture here is synthetic: records are built through the real
+[`scripts/corpus_manifest.py`](../scripts/corpus_manifest.py) builder and no image bytes are read or
+written.

+# Synthetic calibration fixtures
+
+These files prove the evaluation harness in `scripts/calibration_report.py` (issue #29) computes the
+release gates correctly. **They are not measurements.** No model produced them, no contributor
+supplied them, and no number here says anything about how well Timmy labels a real photo.
+
+Every row is a promise in the same shape the harness accepts:
+
+```json
+{"model":"…","subjectKey":"<16 hex>","split":"validation","truth":{"bristolType":4},
+ "prediction":{"bristolType":4,"confidence":0.97}}
+```
+
+`subjectKey` values are fictional but obey the ingestion split rule (the first byte of the key picks
+the split), so the harness's contributor-held-out check is exercised for real. `prediction: null`
+means the candidate produced no suggestion at all.
+
+| File | What it is for | Harness outcome |
+|---|---|---|
+| `predictions.jsonl` | Three candidates with invented scores: a bootstrap that calls almost everything Type 4, a frozen encoder that is precise but badly calibrated, and a specialist that looks strong on validation and slips on test. | `BLOCKED` — each candidate fails a different gate. |
+| `predictions-go.jsonl` | One engineered candidate that clears every gate, including a low-confidence mistake on validation that the threshold is supposed to cut away. | `GO` — proves the passing branch and threshold selection, not a result. |
+| `predictions-leaky.jsonl` | One contributor whose photos sit in both `validation` and `test`. | Refused with exit 2 — a leaked corpus is never scored. |
+
+## Regenerating
+
+The numbers are hand-chosen so the expected outcome is obvious by inspection; there is no generator
+to re-run. If you change a row, update the expectation in `tests/calibration-harness.test.py` and the
+caption in `scripts/record_release_demo.mjs` together, and read the harness output back before
+claiming what it says.
+
+No image, no diagnosis, and no patient data lives in this directory.

+# Vision corpus (issue #18)
+
+A committed, deterministic corpus that proves one claim on every run: **every reply Timmy receives is
+either a schema-valid visible-field suggestion or it fails closed.** Nothing is guessed, and a
+refusal never carries a form or a colour.
+
+## Licence and provenance
+
+- All fixtures are licensed **CC0-1.0**.
+- Every fixture is a synthetic image drawn from fixed integer math by
+  [`scripts/build_vision_corpus.py`](../../../scripts/build_vision_corpus.py). There is no camera, no
+  human subject, no third-party content, and no real medical imagery anywhere in this directory.
+- `manifest.json` records each fixture's `sha256`, byte length, provenance, licence, case class, the
+  provider reply it replays, and the outcome that reply must produce.
+- The hashes are an integrity receipt: `loadVisionCorpus()` refuses a fixture whose bytes no longer
+  match the manifest, so the corpus cannot be quietly edited into a different test.
+
+## Coverage
+
+| Case | Class | Replayed provider reply | Required outcome |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `stool-like-formed` | stool | valid suggestion, confidence 0.83 | `suggestion` |
+| `non-stool-scene` | non-stool | `isStool: false` | `abstained` (`not_stool`) |
+| `blur-low-detail` | blur | confidence 0.41 | `abstained` (`low_confidence`) |
+| `glare-overexposed` | glare | schema-valid with null form and colour | `abstained` (`unusable_visual_fields`) |
+| `empty-bowl` | empty-bowl | `isStool: false` | `abstained` (`not_stool`) |
+| `malformed-response` | malformed-response | plain prose, not JSON | `fail_closed` (`unparsable_content`) |
+| `out-of-range-fields` | malformed-response | Bristol 9, colour `purple`, confidence 0.9 | `fail_closed` (`out_of_range_or_missing_fields`) |
+| `blank-plus-out-of-range` | malformed-response | Bristol 9 with a `null` colour, confidence 0.9 | `fail_closed` (`out_of_range_or_missing_fields`) |
+
+Both out-of-range cases keep `confidence` inside the contract on purpose: at `1.4` the reply died at the
+confidence gate, so the `out_of_range_or_missing_fields` label was credited to a guard the case never
+reached. `blank-plus-out-of-range` covers the reply shape that the blank-first ordering used to abstain on
+(issue #73) — a filled-in field is a claim, and a claim outside the contract fails closed even when the
+other field came back blank.
+
+## Where the corpus is enforced
+
+- `tests/vision-corpus.test.js` — corpus contract, hash integrity, and conformance of every reply.
+- `tests/vision-boundary.test.js` — the corpus replayed through the real provider call path and
+  through a running `server.mjs`, asserting status codes and that no image bytes or credentials
+  appear in a fail-closed body.
+- `tests/vision-refusal.acceptance.mjs` — the same refusals in a real browser.
+- `scripts/record_release_demo.mjs` — the release demo replays corpus cases through the real analysis
+  code path, so the video shows the status the server would actually send.
+
+## Regenerating
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/build_vision_corpus.py            # rewrite fixtures and manifest.json
+python3 scripts/build_vision_corpus.py --verify   # verify committed fixtures against the manifest
+```
+
+The release builder runs `--verify` before anything is packaged. Regenerate deliberately and commit
+the new hashes; never hand-edit a fixture or a recorded reply.
