Operator validation failed when yes_general OOM left truncated exports
under .dce-temp. Audit and archive verification now skip in-progress temps;
smoke covers the partial-temp case. KotOR audit passes with temps present.
OOM/aborted channel exports no longer delete partial temp downloads.
Salvage uses grep boundary repair with python merge/validate for files
over 64 MiB. Retain stale temps when merge fails instead of discarding.
Extend run-discord-scrape-smoke with skip-abort target so OOM/abort
channel skip from plan 040 has offline regression coverage. Update
merge-readiness for 2026-05-30 and KotOR validation retry in progress.
Document full-validation-latest.log results in merge-readiness:
four targets scrape+audit pass; KotOR_discord_msgs and remainder
documented as pending while long-running validation continues.
Add run-operator-proof for one-target handoff/scrape/prove flows.
Prefer podman-compose on Podman hosts but honor DCE_DOCKER_BIN overrides
so offline smokes keep using fake compose shims.
run-discord-scrape-host.sh runs verify --disk-only before preflight/scrape
so setup-cron monthly jobs fail fast when archive roots are low on space.
Harden bootstrap smoke to surface failures when dry-run fails.
Fail fast when archive or repo paths lack free space (DCE_MIN_FREE_MB),
treat disk-full export failures as skippable channels, and add an offline
disk-space smoke. Smokes default DCE_MIN_FREE_MB=0 so CI stays portable.
