While the .5 gate ran: confirmed no legacy multi-container stacks remain
(workstream A tail fully closed), reframed the "30 apps zero coverage"
claim as stale (all apps get generic baseline coverage via
all-apps-lifecycle/matrix, real gap is 34 apps lacking app-specific
assertions), and discovered tests/multinode/smoke.sh already exists and
ran it live against .116<->.228: federation pairing/FIPS/content-browse
all confirmed working, but found + root-caused a real tombstone bug
(federation.remove-node silently swallows tombstone-write failures,
letting removed peers get re-added by background sync). Not fixed yet —
federation/trust code, needs a careful fix, not a blind one.
