+# Cloud Hosted Tier Runtime Readiness Production Remediated Record
+
+- Date: `2026-04-24`
+- Gate: `cloud-hosted-tier-runtime-readiness`
+- Assertion: `RA11`
+- Result: `passed`
+- Evidence tier: `real-external-e2e`
+- Environment:
+  - External control plane: `https://cloud.pulserelay.pro`
+  - Remote host: `root@pulse-cloud`
+  - Registry DB: `/data/control-plane/tenants.db`
+  - Tenant runtime root: `/data/tenants`
+  - Tenant runtime image after remediation: `pulse-runtime:ga-recovery-9dbaaa7efeb5`
+
+## Production Blocker Remediated
+
+The live Pulse Cloud host previously blocked GA readiness because `/dev/vda1`
+was full (`154G` used of `154G`), Docker/containerd retained old build and
+runtime state, tenant JSON logs were unbounded, and old proof tenants had been
+left as a standing production fleet.
+
+The user explicitly approved clearing old proof tenants. No customer tenants
+were intentionally retained during this remediation.
+
+## Remediation Actions
+
+1. Removed stale Pulse build, deploy, and source directories from `/tmp`,
+   reclaiming roughly `32.7G`.
+2. Pruned Docker/containerd build and image cache after confirming no customer
+   tenant fleet needed to remain.
+3. Installed host-level Docker log defaults in `/etc/docker/daemon.json`:
+   bounded `json-file` logs with `max-size=10m`, `max-file=3`, and
+   `live-restore=true`.
+4. Installed `/etc/logrotate.d/docker-containers` with the same `10M` and
+   `rotate 3` policy, then forced one rotation of existing container logs.
+5. Stopped only the control plane, backed up
+   `/data/control-plane/tenants.db`, removed `85` old `pulse-t-*` proof tenant
+   containers, cleared proof tenant registry and billing/account rows, removed
+   old `/data/tenants/t-*` proof tenant directories, and restarted the control
+   plane.
+
+## Stable Clean Baseline
+
+After the control plane had restarted and settled for roughly `75s`, the live
+host reported:
+
+- `tenants=0`
+- `stripe_accounts=0`
+- `accounts=0`
+- `users=0`
+- `hosted_entitlements=0`
+- `tenant_containers=0`
+- `running_containers=2`
+- `unhealthy_containers=0`
+- root filesystem: `12G` used, `142G` available, `8%` full
+
+The only running services were the control plane and Traefik. The control-plane
+health and readiness endpoints returned `ok` and `ready`.
+
+## External Canary
+
+A fresh disposable MSP account was seeded only for this proof:
+
+- Account: `a_ga_canary_20260424T082432Z`
+- Created workspaces:
+  - `t-JZNJF2AW7S`
+  - `t-AB21TTA2FC`
+
+The live public HTTPS API passed the following checks:
+
+1. Initial MSP tenant list returned `200` with `0` workspaces.
+2. Workspace creation returned `201` for both disposable workspaces.
+3. Follow-up tenant list returned `200` with both workspaces.
+4. MSP member invite returned `202`.
+5. MSP member list returned `200` with the expected members.
+6. Portal dashboard returned `200`, `kind=msp`, and `total=2`.
+7. Workspace detail returned `200`, `plan=msp_starter`, and `state=active`
+   for both workspaces.
+8. Public signup boundary returned `400` with `code=tier_unavailable`.
+9. Workspace deletion returned `204` for both disposable workspaces.
+
+After the proof, the canary account, users, billing rows, and tenant rows were
+removed again.
+
+## Post-Proof State
+
+The final production state after the canary cleanup was:
+
+- `tenants=0`
+- `stripe_accounts=0`
+- `accounts=0`
+- `users=0`
+- `hosted_entitlements=0`
+- `tenant_containers=0`
+- `running_containers=2`
+- `unhealthy_containers=0`
+- root filesystem: `13G` used, `142G` available, `8%` full
+- Docker images: `6.369GB` total, `3.249GB` reclaimable
+- Docker build cache: `985.8MB`
+
+## Build Contract Follow-Up
+
+An attempted fresh production runtime image build from the repository runtime
+target still required installer signing material:
+
+`installer-ssh-public-key is required for rendered installers`
+
+No local secret bypass was used. This did not block the live production proof
+because the deployed runtime image passed the external canary, but the release
+build contract should be tightened so production tenant runtime images can be
+built without depending on full installer signing inputs unless the release
+pipeline intentionally requires them.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+`cloud-hosted-tier-runtime-readiness` can be treated as `passed` again. The
+production storage exhaustion was remediated, stale proof tenants were removed,
+host-level log retention now exists, and a fresh disposable MSP canary proved
+workspace create/list/member/dashboard/detail/boundary/delete behavior over the
+live public HTTPS control-plane surface.
