feat: Phase 12 — production hardening (disturbance, soak, testrunner scenarios)

P1 Disturbance: restart/reconnect correctness tests — assignment delivery
  through real proto → ProcessAssignments, epoch validation on promoted
  volume, mandatory reconnect assertions

P2 Soak: repeated create/failover/recover cycles with end-of-cycle truth
  checks, runtime hygiene (no stale tasks/entries), steady-state idempotence

Testrunner recovery actions + scenarios:
- recovery.go: wait_recovery_complete, assert_recovery_state, trigger_rebuild
- 8 new YAML scenarios: baseline (failover/crash/partition), stability
  (replication-tax, netem-sweep, packet-loss, degraded), robust shipper

HA edge case and EC6 fix tests for regression coverage.

(P3 diagnosability + P4 perf floor committed separately in 643a5a107)

+# Phase 12
+
+Date: 2026-04-02
+Status: active
+Purpose: move the accepted chosen-path implementation from candidate-safe product closure toward production-safe behavior under restart, disturbance, and operational reality
+
+## Why This Phase Exists
+
+`Phase 09` accepted production-grade execution closure on the chosen path.
+`Phase 10` accepted bounded control-plane closure on that same path.
+`Phase 11` accepted bounded product-surface rebinding on that same path.
+
+What remains is no longer:
+
+1. whether the chosen backend path works
+2. whether selected product surfaces can be rebound onto it
+
+It is now:
+
+1. whether the chosen path stays correct under restart, failover, rejoin, and repeated disturbance
+2. whether long-run behavior is stable enough for serious production use
+3. whether operators can diagnose, bound, and reason about failures in practice
+4. whether remaining production blockers are explicit and finite
+
+## Phase Goal
+
+Move from candidate-safe chosen-path closure to explicit production-hardening closure planning and execution.
+
+Execution note:
+
+1. treat `P0` as real planning work, not placeholder prose
+2. use `phase-12-log.md` as the technical pack for:
+   - step breakdown
+   - hard indicators
+   - reject shapes
+   - assignment text for `sw` and `tester`
+
+## Scope
+
+### In scope
+
+1. restart/recovery stability under repeated disturbance
+2. long-run / soak viability planning and evidence design
+3. operational diagnosability and blocker accounting
+4. bounded hardening slices that do not reopen accepted earlier semantics casually
+
+### Out of scope
+
+1. re-discovering core protocol semantics already accepted in `Phase 09` / `Phase 10`
+2. re-scoping `Phase 11` product rebinding work unless a hardening proof exposes a real bug
+3. broad new feature expansion unrelated to hardening
+4. unbounded product-surface additions
+
+## Phase 12 Items
+
+### P0: Hardening Plan Freeze
+
+Goal:
+
+- convert `Phase 12` from a broad “hardening” label into a bounded execution plan with explicit first slices, hard indicators, and reject shapes
+
+Accepted decision target:
+
+1. define the first hardening slices and their order
+2. define what counts as production-hardening evidence versus support evidence
+3. define which accepted surfaces become the first disturbance targets
+
+Planned first hardening areas:
+
+1. restart / rejoin / repeated failover disturbance
+2. long-run / soak stability
+3. operational diagnosis quality and blocker accounting
+4. performance floor and cost characterization only after correctness-hardening slices are bounded
+
+Status:
+
+- accepted
+
+### Later candidate slices inside `Phase 12`
+
+1. `P1`: restart / recovery disturbance hardening
+2. `P2`: soak / long-run stability hardening
+3. `P3`: diagnosability / blocker accounting / runbook hardening
+4. `P4`: performance floor and rollout-gate hardening
+
+### P1: Restart / Recovery Disturbance Hardening
+
+Goal:
+
+- prove the accepted chosen path remains correct under restart, rejoin, repeated failover, and disturbance ordering
+
+Acceptance object:
+
+1. `P1` accepts correctness under restart/disturbance on the chosen path
+2. it does not accept merely that recovery-related code paths exist
+3. it does not accept merely that the system eventually seems to recover in a loose or approximate sense
+
+Execution steps:
+
+1. Step 1: disturbance contract freeze
+   - define the bounded disturbance classes for the first hardening slice:
+     - restart with same lineage
+     - restart with changed address / refreshed publication
+     - repeated failover / rejoin cycles
+     - delayed or stale signal arrival after restart/failover
+2. Step 2: implementation hardening
+   - harden ownership/control reconstruction on the already accepted chosen path
+   - keep identity, epoch, session, and publication truth coherent across disturbance
+3. Step 3: proof package
+   - prove repeated disturbance correctness on the chosen path
+   - prove stale or delayed signals fail closed rather than silently corrupting ownership truth
+   - prove no-overclaim around soak, perf, or broader production readiness
+
+Required scope:
+
+1. restart/rejoin correctness for the accepted chosen path
+2. publication/address refresh correctness without identity drift
+3. repeated ownership/control transitions under failover and rejoin
+4. bounded reject behavior for stale heartbeat/control signals after disturbance
+
+Must prove:
+
+1. post-restart chosen-path ownership is reconstructed from accepted truth rather than accidental local leftovers
+2. stale or delayed signals after restart/failover are rejected or explicitly bounded
+3. repeated failover/rejoin cycles preserve identity, epoch/session monotonicity, and convergence on the chosen path
+4. acceptance wording stays bounded to disturbance correctness rather than broad production-readiness claims
+
+Reuse discipline:
+
+1. `weed/server/block_recovery.go` and related tests may be updated in place as the primary restart/recovery ownership surface
+2. `weed/server/master_block_failover.go`, `weed/server/master_block_registry.go`, and `weed/server/volume_server_block.go` may be updated in place as the accepted control/runtime disturbance surfaces
+3. `weed/server/block_recovery_test.go`, `weed/server/block_recovery_adversarial_test.go`, and focused `qa_block_*` tests should carry the main proof burden
+4. `weed/storage/blockvol/*` and `weed/storage/blockvol/v2bridge/*` are reference only unless disturbance hardening exposes a real bug in accepted earlier closure
+5. no reused V1 surface may silently redefine chosen-path ownership truth, recovery choice, or disturbance acceptance wording
+
+Verification mechanism:
+
+1. focused restart/rejoin/failover integration tests on the chosen path
+2. adversarial checks for stale or delayed control/heartbeat arrival after disturbance
+3. explicit no-overclaim review so `P1` does not absorb soak/perf/product-expansion work
+
+Hard indicators:
+
+1. one accepted restart correctness proof:
+   - restart on the chosen path reconstructs valid ownership/control state
+   - post-restart behavior does not depend on accidental pre-restart leftovers
+2. one accepted rejoin/publication-refresh proof:
+   - changed address or publication refresh does not break identity truth or visibility
+3. one accepted repeated-disturbance proof:
+   - repeated failover/rejoin cycles converge without epoch/session regression
+4. one accepted stale-signal proof:
+   - delayed heartbeat/control signals after disturbance do not re-authorize stale ownership
+5. one accepted boundedness proof:
+   - `P1` claims correctness under disturbance, not soak, perf, or rollout readiness
+
+Reject if:
+
+1. evidence only shows that recovery code paths execute, rather than that correctness is preserved under disturbance
+2. tests prove only one happy restart path and skip stale/delayed signal shapes
+3. identity, epoch/session, or publication truth can drift across restart/rejoin
+4. `P1` quietly absorbs soak, diagnosability, perf, or new product-surface work
+
+Status:
+
+- accepted
+
+Carry-forward from `P0`:
+
+1. the hardening object is the accepted chosen path from `Phase 09` + `Phase 10` + `Phase 11`
+2. `P1` is the first correctness-hardening slice because disturbance threatens correctness before soak or perf
+3. later `P2` / `P3` / `P4` remain distinct acceptance objects and should not be absorbed into `P1`
+
+### P2: Soak / Long-Run Stability Hardening
+
+Goal:
+
+- prove the accepted chosen path remains viable over longer duration and repeated operation without hidden state drift
+
+Acceptance object:
+
+1. `P2` accepts bounded long-run stability on the chosen path under repeated operation or soak-like repetition
+2. it does not accept merely that one disturbance test can be repeated many times manually
+3. it does not accept diagnosability, performance floor, or rollout readiness by implication
+
+Execution steps:
+
+1. Step 1: soak contract freeze
+   - define one bounded repeated-operation envelope for the chosen path:
+     - repeated create / failover / recover / steady-state cycles
+     - repeated heartbeat / control / recovery interaction
+     - repeated publication / ownership convergence checks
+   - define what counts as state drift versus expected bounded churn
+2. Step 2: harness and evidence path
+   - build or adapt one repeatable soak/repeated-cycle harness on the accepted chosen path
+   - collect stable end-of-cycle truth rather than only transient pass/fail output
+3. Step 3: proof package
+   - prove no hidden state drift across repeated cycles
+   - prove no unbounded growth/leak in the bounded chosen-path runtime state
+   - prove no-overclaim around diagnosability, perf, or production rollout
+
+Required scope:
+
+1. repeated-cycle correctness on the accepted chosen path
+2. stable end-of-cycle ownership/control/publication truth after many cycles
+3. bounded runtime-state hygiene across repeated operation
+4. explicit distinction between acceptance evidence and support telemetry
+
+Must prove:
+
+1. repeated chosen-path cycles converge to the same bounded truth rather than accumulating semantic drift
+2. registry / VS-visible / product-visible state remain mutually coherent after repeated cycles
+3. repeated operation does not leave unbounded leftover tasks, sessions, or stale runtime ownership artifacts within the tested envelope
+4. acceptance wording stays bounded to long-run stability rather than diagnosability/perf/launch claims
+
+Reuse discipline:
+
+1. `weed/server/qa_block_*test.go`, `block_recovery_test.go`, and related hardening tests may be updated in place as the primary repeated-cycle proof surface
+2. testrunner / infra / metrics helpers may be reused as support instrumentation, but support telemetry must not replace acceptance assertions
+3. `weed/server/master_block_failover.go`, `master_block_registry.go`, `volume_server_block.go`, and `block_recovery.go` may be updated in place only if repeated-cycle hardening exposes a real bug
+4. `weed/storage/blockvol/*` and `weed/storage/blockvol/v2bridge/*` remain reference only unless soak evidence exposes a real accepted-path mismatch
+5. no reused V1 surface may silently redefine the chosen-path steady-state truth, drift criteria, or soak acceptance wording
+
+Verification mechanism:
+
+1. one bounded repeated-cycle or soak harness on the chosen path
+2. explicit end-of-cycle assertions for ownership/control/publication truth
+3. explicit checks for bounded runtime-state hygiene after repeated cycles
+4. no-overclaim review so `P2` does not absorb `P3` diagnosability or `P4` perf/rollout work
+
+Hard indicators:
+
+1. one accepted repeated-cycle proof:
+   - the chosen path completes many bounded cycles without semantic drift
+   - end-of-cycle truth remains coherent after each cycle
+2. one accepted state-hygiene proof:
+   - no unbounded leftover runtime artifacts accumulate within the tested envelope
+3. one accepted long-run stability proof:
+   - stability claims are based on repeated evidence, not one-shot reruns
+4. one accepted boundedness proof:
+   - `P2` claims soak/long-run stability only, not diagnosability, perf, or rollout readiness
+
+Reject if:
+
+1. evidence is only a renamed rerun of `P1` disturbance tests
+2. the slice counts iterations but never checks end-of-cycle truth for drift
+3. support telemetry is presented without a hard acceptance assertion
+4. `P2` quietly absorbs diagnosability, perf, or launch-readiness claims
+
+Status:
+
+- accepted
+
+Carry-forward from `P1`:
+
+1. bounded restart/disturbance correctness is now accepted on the chosen path
+2. `P2` now asks whether that accepted path stays stable across repeated operation without hidden drift
+3. later `P3` / `P4` remain distinct acceptance objects and should not be absorbed into `P2`
+
+### P3: Diagnosability / Blocker Accounting / Runbook Hardening
+
+Goal:
+
+- make failures, residual blockers, and operator-visible diagnosis quality explicit and reviewable on the accepted chosen path
+
+Acceptance object:
+
+1. `P3` accepts bounded diagnosability / blocker accounting on the chosen path
+2. it does not accept merely that some logs or debug strings exist
+3. it does not accept performance floor or rollout readiness by implication
+
+Execution steps:
+
+1. Step 1: diagnosability contract freeze
+   - define one bounded diagnosis envelope for the accepted chosen path:
+     - failover / recovery does not converge in time
+     - publication / lookup truth does not match authority truth
+     - residual runtime work or stale ownership artifacts remain after an operation
+     - known production blockers remain open and must be made explicit
+   - define what counts as operator-visible diagnosis versus engineer-only source spelunking
+2. Step 2: evidence-surface and blocker-ledger hardening
+   - identify or harden the minimum operator-visible surfaces needed to classify the bounded failure classes
+   - make residual blockers explicit, finite, and reviewable rather than implicit tribal knowledge
+3. Step 3: proof package
+   - prove at least one bounded diagnosis loop closes from symptom to owning truth/blocker
+   - prove blocker accounting is explicit and does not hide unknown gaps behind “hardening later” language
+   - prove no-overclaim around perf, launch readiness, or broad topology support
+
+Required scope:
+
+1. operator-visible symptoms/logs/status for bounded chosen-path failure classes
+2. one explicit mapping from symptom to ownership/control/runtime/publication truth
+3. one explicit blocker ledger for unresolved production-hardening gaps
+4. bounded runbook guidance for diagnosis of the accepted chosen path
+
+Must prove:
+
+1. bounded chosen-path failures can be distinguished with explicit operator-visible evidence rather than debugger-only knowledge
+2. at least one diagnosis loop closes from visible symptom to the relevant authority/runtime truth without semantic ambiguity
+3. residual blockers are explicit, finite, and named with a clear boundary rather than scattered across chats or memory
+4. acceptance wording stays bounded to diagnosability / blocker accounting rather than perf or rollout claims
+
+Reuse discipline:
+
+1. `weed/server/qa_block_*test.go`, `block_recovery*_test.go`, and focused hardening tests may be updated in place where they can prove a bounded diagnosis loop on the accepted path
+2. `weed/server/master_block_registry.go`, `master_block_failover.go`, `volume_server_block.go`, and `block_recovery.go` may be updated in place only if diagnosability work exposes a real visibility gap in accepted-path behavior
+3. lightweight status/logging surfaces and bounded runbook docs may be updated in place as support artifacts, but support artifacts must not replace acceptance assertions
+4. `weed/storage/blockvol/*` and `weed/storage/blockvol/v2bridge/*` remain reference only unless diagnosability work exposes a real accepted-path mismatch
+5. no reused V1 surface may silently redefine chosen-path truth, blocker boundaries, or diagnosis acceptance wording
+
+Verification mechanism:
+
+1. one bounded diagnosis-loop proof on the accepted chosen path
+2. one explicit blocker ledger or equivalent review artifact with finite named items
+3. one explicit check that operator-visible evidence matches the underlying accepted truth being diagnosed
+4. no-overclaim review so `P3` does not absorb `P4` perf/rollout work
+
+Hard indicators:
+
+1. one accepted symptom-classification proof:
+   - bounded failure classes can be told apart by explicit operator-visible evidence
+2. one accepted diagnosis-loop proof:
+   - a visible symptom can be traced to the relevant ownership/control/runtime/publication truth
+3. one accepted blocker-accounting proof:
+   - unresolved blockers are explicit, finite, and reviewable
+4. one accepted boundedness proof:
+   - `P3` claims diagnosability / blockers only, not perf floor or rollout readiness
+
+Reject if:
+
+1. the slice merely adds logs or debug strings without proving diagnostic usefulness
+2. blockers remain implicit, scattered, or dependent on private memory of prior chats
+3. diagnosis requires debugger/source-level spelunking instead of bounded operator-visible evidence
+4. `P3` quietly absorbs perf, rollout, or broad product/topology expansion claims
+
+Status:
+
+- accepted
+
+Carry-forward from `P2`:
+
+1. bounded restart/disturbance correctness and bounded long-run stability are now accepted on the chosen path
+2. `P3` now asks whether bounded failures and residual gaps are explicit and diagnosable in operator-facing terms
+3. later `P4` remains a distinct acceptance object and should not be absorbed into `P3`
+
+### P4: Performance Floor / Rollout Gates
+
+Goal:
+
+- define explicit performance floor, cost characterization, and rollout-gate criteria without letting perf claims replace correctness hardening
+
+Acceptance object:
+
+1. `P4` accepts a bounded performance floor and a bounded rollout-gate package for the accepted chosen path
+2. it does not accept generic “performance is good” prose or one-off fast runs
+3. it does not accept broad production rollout readiness outside the explicitly named launch envelope
+
+Execution steps:
+
+1. Step 1: performance-floor contract freeze
+   - define one bounded workload envelope for the accepted chosen path
+   - define which metrics count as acceptance evidence:
+     - throughput / latency floor
+     - resource-cost envelope
+     - disturbance-free steady-state behavior
+   - define which metrics are support-only telemetry
+2. Step 2: benchmark and cost characterization
+   - run one repeatable benchmark package against the accepted chosen path
+   - record measured floor values and cost trade-offs rather than “fast enough” wording
+3. Step 3: rollout-gate package
+   - translate accepted correctness, soak, diagnosability, and perf evidence into one bounded launch envelope
+   - make explicit which blockers are cleared, which remain, and what the first supported rollout shape is
+
+Required scope:
+
+1. one bounded benchmark matrix on the accepted chosen path
+2. one explicit performance floor statement backed by measured evidence
+3. one explicit resource-cost characterization
+4. one rollout-gate / launch-envelope artifact with finite named requirements and exclusions
+
+Must prove:
+
+1. performance claims are tied to a named workload envelope rather than generic optimism
+2. the chosen path has a measurable minimum acceptable floor within that envelope
+3. rollout discussion is bounded by explicit gates and supported scope, not implied from prior slice acceptance
+4. acceptance wording stays bounded to performance floor / rollout gates rather than broad production success claims
+
+Reuse discipline:
+
+1. `weed/server/qa_block_*test.go`, testrunner scenarios, and focused perf/support harnesses may be updated in place as the primary measurement surface
+2. `weed/server/*`, `weed/storage/blockvol/*`, and `weed/storage/blockvol/v2bridge/*` may be updated in place only if performance-floor work exposes a real bug or a measurement-surface gap
+3. `sw-block/.private/phase/` docs may be updated in place for the rollout-gate artifact and measured envelope
+4. support telemetry may help characterize cost, but support telemetry must not replace the explicit floor/gate assertions
+5. no reused V1 surface may silently redefine chosen-path truth, launch envelope, or rollout-gate wording
+
+Verification mechanism:
+
+1. one repeatable bounded benchmark package on the accepted chosen path
+2. one explicit measured floor summary with named workload and cost envelope
+3. one explicit rollout-gate artifact naming:
+   - supported launch envelope
+   - cleared blockers
+   - remaining blockers
+   - reject conditions for rollout
+4. no-overclaim review so `P4` does not turn into generic launch optimism
+
+Hard indicators:
+
+1. one accepted performance-floor proof:
+   - measured floor values exist for the named workload envelope
+2. one accepted cost-characterization proof:
+   - resource/replication tax or similar bounded cost is explicit
+3. one accepted rollout-gate proof:
+   - the first supported launch envelope is explicit and finite
+4. one accepted boundedness proof:
+   - `P4` claims only the bounded floor/gates it actually measures
+
+Reject if:
+
+1. the slice presents isolated benchmark numbers without a named workload contract
+2. rollout gates are replaced by vague “looks ready” wording
+3. support telemetry is presented without an explicit acceptance threshold or gate
+4. `P4` quietly absorbs broad new topology, product-surface, or generic ops-tooling expansion
+
+Status:
+
+- active
+
+Carry-forward from `P3`:
+
+1. bounded disturbance correctness, bounded soak stability, and bounded diagnosability / blocker accounting are now accepted on the chosen path
+2. `P4` now asks whether that accepted path has an explicit measured floor and an explicit first-launch envelope
+3. later work after `Phase 12` should be a productionization program, not another hidden hardening slice
+
+## Assignment For `sw`
+
+Current next tasks:
+
+1. deliver `Phase 12 P4` as bounded performance-floor / rollout-gate hardening
+2. keep the acceptance object fixed on one measured workload envelope plus one explicit launch-envelope / gate artifact
+3. keep earlier accepted `Phase 09` / `Phase 10` / `Phase 11` / `Phase 12 P1` / `Phase 12 P2` / `Phase 12 P3` semantics stable unless `P4` exposes a real bug or measurement-surface gap
+4. do not let `P4` turn into broad optimization, topology expansion, or generic launch marketing
+
+## Assignment For `tester`
+
+Current next tasks:
+
+1. validate `P4` as real bounded performance-floor / rollout-gate hardening rather than “benchmark numbers exist” prose
+2. require explicit validation targets for:
+   - one named workload envelope with measured floor values
+   - one explicit launch-envelope / rollout-gate artifact
+   - no-overclaim around broad production readiness beyond the named envelope
+3. keep no-overclaim active around accepted `Phase 09` / `Phase 10` / `Phase 11` / `Phase 12 P1` / `Phase 12 P2` / `Phase 12 P3` closure
+4. keep `P4` bounded rather than letting it absorb post-Phase-12 productionization work
