# Factory Live-vs-Memory Drift Receipt — 2026-06-21

## Decision

```text
DEPLOY DECISION: FAIL CLOSED
TRUST ORDER: live receipt > committed receipt > memory summary
```

The provided memory is useful historical context, but it conflicts with current live checks. For fable-agent deploy decisions, live evidence wins.

## Memory claims provided

| Claim | Memory value |
|---|---|
| Containers | 25 Docker containers all UP |
| Agents | 6 agents |
| Infrastructure | 14 infra containers |
| Monitoring/deploy | 5 monitoring/deploy containers |
| Deploy route | `deploy-webhook` on `8098`; git-proxy serves `/deploy` |
| Skills | 63 skills |
| RSI cron | skill_health.py runs every 6 hours |
| Auto-patch | `rsi_canary` degraded → repaired → recovered proof exists in pi-real-engineering |

## Live checks observed in this repo session

Commands run:

```bash
node dist/index.js factory check
node dist/index.js factory rsi --out .fable/rsi/quality-review-rsi.json
node dist/index.js fable5 receipt-health --root .fable --window-minutes 10080
```

Observed live facts:

| Fact | Live value | Decision impact |
|---|---:|---|
| Factory status | `stale` | fail closed for deploy readiness |
| Containers | 14 | conflicts with memory's 25 |
| Agents | 6 | matches memory |
| Infrastructure | 14 | matches memory |
| Monitoring | 5 | matches memory |
| Skills | 63 | matches memory |
| Deploy route | `8099/deploy` present | route exists |
| RSI score | `66/66 (100%)` | healthy current score |
| RSI cron | absent / grep failed | conflicts with memory's cron-present claim |
| Factory watcher | active | positive |
| Auto-patch proof | not proven by current live RSI receipt | cannot claim generic autopatch |
| Receipt health | healthy | receipt consumer/homeostasis works |

## Reconciliation

Memory claim `25 containers all UP` is stale against live `14 containers`.

Memory claim `skill_health.py runs every 6 hours` is stale or at least currently unverified because live cron check failed.

Memory claim `rsi_canary` auto-patch proof exists is historical and should remain scoped:

```text
Proven: rsi_canary degraded → patched → recovered in external receipt.
Not proven: generic non-canary degraded repair in current fable-agent receipt set.
```

## Safe claims allowed now

- fable-agent code, tests, and docs are green.
- Memory B cell cache is implemented and tested.
- Receipt-health/homeostasis check is implemented and live healthy.
- `8099/deploy via git-proxy` route exists.
- RSI current health is `66/66 (100%)`.
- Factory watcher is active.

## Claims blocked until fresh receipts exist

- Factory fully fresh/green.
- 25 containers all currently up.
- Cron currently installed and active.
- Generic autonomous self-healing.
- Non-canary degraded repair.
- Deploy readiness when factory status reports `stale`.

## Quality rule

```text
If memory and live checks disagree, fable-agent must preserve both in the receipt and gate on live evidence.
```
