 release; nothing measures until this restart. The 24–48h soak clock starts

+## T0 reset (2026-08-11)
+
+The original soak T0 was **2026-08-08T14:58:52Z**, the second cutover
+(the first cutover on 08-07 22:24Z was rolled back after AITL caught three
+gates unset — see `feedback-env-gates-are-ship-state`). The soak was then
+interrupted on **2026-08-08T17:14Z** by Q7d expiration on the measuring
+account, followed by a home-side power outage covering the recovery window.
+Observer coverage did not return until **2026-08-11T15:35Z** when this
+session resumed via systemd auto-restart.
+
+**Ground-truth measurement on 2026-08-11T20:12Z–20:15Z:** the proxy
+process itself never bounced. `systemctl --user show cache-fix-proxy`
+reports `MainPID=380513`, `ExecMainStartTimestamp=Sat 2026-08-08 14:58:52
+UTC`, `ActiveState=active`, `SubState=running`. All six v4.4.0-beta.0
+gates present in the process `Environment=` line (`CACHE_FIX_OUTPUT_GUARD`,
+`CACHE_FIX_TOOL_REWRITE`, `CACHE_FIX_INSERTION_NORMALIZE`,
+`CACHE_FIX_PREFIXDIFF`, `CACHE_FIX_REQUEST_CAPTURE=1`,
+`CACHE_FIX_USAGE_LOG_EXTENDED=on`), no drift from cutover values.
+`/health` snapshot at 20:12:03Z corroborates: `version: 4.4.0-beta.0`,
+`proxy_tree: d077b9e39b3e` (matches `local/v4.2.1-warmer @ 181570a`, the
+v4.4.0-beta.0 merge commit).
+
+**Interpretation:** the runtime state has actually been in the exact soak
+configuration continuously since 08-08 14:58:52Z. The outage was observer-
+side only. But **criterion 1 (proxy uptime) needs Q7d-metered observer
+coverage** — the outage days have no signal to grade, so they cannot count
+toward the soak window even though the process ran through them. Criteria
+2 through 5 have the same observer-coverage requirement (all require
+`usage.jsonl` scans of the measuring account's traffic).
+
+**New T0: 2026-08-11T20:14:05Z** (Chris's decision timestamp in
+`#cache-proxy` room, event id
+`$bu3Sf-HoXssUi3Vss6rLyt37GUS3u2VYvwvn_Dx-ock`). No process bounce; the
+reset is metering-window only. Chris's reasoning: bouncing costs a
+cache-prefix bust across every active session, and the process state is
+already what we want to soak — bounce would work against us. AITL
+concurred (`$LuqtfCefy_KNCmXs1ggGw8nJkMGUUJoiaSBrOJRw2sw`); Proxy Builder
+posted the two-source verification (`$lt10XkDuKWHRDgOWQwrzsIpPt-sU2Fbfy6VuKfxYMi4`);
+AITL final concur on skipping the bounce and on this write
+(`$R-B9xONJbQfOXmql3sL_xcAoMs-pZXXLAHPhyPfoPDo`).
+
+**Outage-window `usage.jsonl` mining not attempted.** The 2.5-day gap
+contains AITL's fleet's rows, but the fleet was mostly quiescent because
+its agents were on the Q7d block — any criterion-3 signal would be
+noise-dominated. Better to spend the mining time on post-reset-T0 clean
+data.
+
+**24–48h soak window now runs from 20:14:05Z 2026-08-11 through
+20:14:05Z 2026-08-12 (minimum) or 2026-08-13 (upper bound).**
