- Summary: The cloud CI runner fleet successfully booted, executed a real job, and deregistered. Policy simulations passed and identity was proven via IMDS. Fixed a lifecycle hook defect that caused a 300-second termination wait, reducing teardown time from ~6 minutes to ~42 seconds. Updated the canary to correctly render runner labels and revised the runbook to wait for the `status==online` API signal before dispatch.

- Summary: Completed Phases 1, 2, 3, and 5. Repaired grader logic to correct false verdicts and implemented CI evidence policies with a zombie detector. Merged the lane identity gate and pre-push refusal hooks. OMN-18239 remains in progress pending one more week of trend data. Minted follow-up tickets OMN-18285 and OMN-18286 to track grader transport and k8s script gaps.

**Staging Deployments & Provenance**

- PRs: omnimarket#2495, #2496; omnibase_infra#3459; omninode_infra#1410, #1412; onex_change_control#9315, #9317
- Summary: Savings views are now bus-backed and live. Fixed staging deploy failures caused by a stale provenance stamp by adding a reconciliation script and a freshness gate. M2 milestone verified green and board data updated. OMN-18284 and OMN-18287 PRs merged but are currently queued in CI.

**Dashboard, Leg 8 & Poll Fixes**
- Tickets: OMN-17340, OMN-17341, OMN-18283
- PRs: omniweb#400, #401; onex_change_control#9306, #9309
- Summary: Removed raw PostgreSQL driver imports from the dashboard code. Leg 7 is now green after fixing a poll-path 429 defect (bumped version pin from 0.4.69 to 0.4.72). Leg 8 still fails due to unresolved pg-driver imports in admin/write paths tracked by OMN-17341. OMN-18283 minted to track the poll fix.

**Dogfooding, Docs & Housekeeping**

- PRs: knowledge-base-internal#386, #388; omninode_infra#1214, #1310; omnimarket#2464
- Summary: Lab delegation dogfooding confirmed local bus works but customer-key refusal is by design. Identified a model reasoning-trace leak (79-86% preamble) and version skew between onex-api and runtime; findings minted as OMN-18278 through OMN-18282. Fixed a documentation defect where a runbook pointed to the wrong Keycloak host (OMN-18292). Swept 25 draft PRs org-wide, flipping 3 to ready (omnimarket#2464, omninode_infra#1310, #1214) and holding 22 for explicit blockers.
