On-disk format is `magic "CELILOBK" (8) | version (1) | iv (16) | ciphertext | GCM tag (16)`; the tag is a trailer because it does not exist until the last byte is encrypted. `decryptFileToFile` still reads the pre-2026-07 JSON-envelope artifacts, discriminating on the magic bytes — the envelope's own `schemaVersion` cannot serve, as it lives inside the encrypted tar.

 - **Reconciliation** — `apps/celilo/src/services/alerting/reconcile.ts` (`reconcile`) — a successful run's failing-key set is authoritative and resolution is by SET DIFFERENCE (absent ⇒ resolved).

The `backups` roster comes from `apps/celilo/src/services/audit/backup-source.ts` (`loadBackupAuditInfo`), shared with `celilo system audit` so both judge the same fleet.
 - **The sweep** — `apps/celilo/src/services/alerting/sweep-runner.ts` (`runSweep`) — the ordered pass that makes alerting run by itself: run due monitors → promote past-grace alerts → re-evaluate suppression → flush quiet-hours deferrals → notify. Driven by `celilo alerts sweep` on `timer.tick.5m`. Never throws for one bad monitor.
 - **Suppression (topology-derived, never configured)** — `apps/celilo/src/services/alerting/suppression.ts` — `ancestorKeysFor`/`findSuppressor`/`machineAlertKey`. A firing machine explains its modules' failures; a firing capability provider explains its zone's consumers. Derived from `module_systems`, so it cannot drift from reality. Deploy windows: `deploy-hooks.ts` (`openDeployWindow`/`closeDeployWindows` — closed by module, so a crashed deploy self-heals).
 - **Escalation & quiet hours** — `escalation.ts` (`decideEscalation`, every reason to stay silent enumerated) + `quiet-hours.ts` (`isWithinQuietHours`, Intl-based and DST-safe). Quiet hours defer the MESSAGE while the escalation clock keeps running.

Leaves a question alone for 90s so an attached responder — terminal, or the `api-serve` wire bridge — answers first).

+## Backups
+
+Creation, scheduling and freshness. A module declares an `on_backup` hook and a
+`backup.schedule`; celilo runs it on that cadence and alerts when it stops.
+
+- **Creation** — `apps/celilo/src/services/backup-create.ts` — `createModuleBackup` (invokes the module's `on_backup` hook into an encrypted envelope), `createSystemStateBackup` (celilo.db), `findBackupEligibleModules`, `isBackupDue`. Storage destinations: `backup-storage.ts`. Retention: `backup-retention.ts` (`pruneBackupsForModule`). Restore: `backup-restore.ts`.
+- **Cadence (one accessor)** — `apps/celilo/src/services/backup-schedule.ts` — `effectiveBackupSchedule(manifest)`. An absent `backup.schedule` means `daily`, NOT `manual`; opting out takes an explicit `manual`. Both the freshness audit and the backup sweep must read cadence through this one function, or a module can be alerted-on but never backed up.
+- **The sweep** — `apps/celilo/src/services/backup-sweep.ts` — `runBackupSweep` (the pass that makes backups run by themselves: for each eligible module, is its declared cadence due → back it up → apply declared retention) + `ensureBackupSweepSubscriber`. Driven by `celilo backup sweep` on `timer.tick.1h` — the coarsest tick that can still serve an `hourly` cadence. Armed automatically: `registerModuleSubscriptions` registers the subscriber for any module declaring an `on_backup` hook, so it appears on install or `module update`. A run refused by the in-flight operation lock is a skip retried next tick, never a failure.
+- **Freshness audit** — `apps/celilo/src/services/audit/backups.ts` (`auditBackups`) — `backup_missing` / `backup_stale` drift findings against the same declared cadence.

+- **Public-boundary NAT model** — `packages/e2e/config/routing/` — exactly ONE NAT sits between the fleet and the simulated internet: the customer firewall (`fw-main` in `direct-internet`, `fw-isp` in the two-layer default), which MASQUERADEs to `100.100.0.100`. The ISP edge `fw-ext` ROUTES the customer's `100.100.0.0/24` and must never re-NAT it (`-s 100.100.0.0/24 -j RETURN` ahead of its MASQUERADE) — an ISP does not NAT a subscriber that already holds a public address. This is load-bearing, not cosmetic: Namecheap-style DDNS registers the SOURCE address when the caller omits `ip=`, which is how celilo registers public names since #464/#466, so a second NAT here publishes the simulator's own address for every public hostname and quietly breaks ACME, inbound reach, and seeded apex records. Constants: `externalWanIp()` / `externalWanSubnet()` in `src/types.ts`. The corollary: every simulator on `internet-external` must default-route via fw-ext (`100.64.0.1`) so it can reply to the customer's public address — Docker's bridge gateway has no path across networks. `config/routing/public-sim-entrypoint.sh` is the shared two-liner; the DNS hierarchy, pebble, isitup and celilo-website-sim already carried it, and npm-registry / registry / apt-repo / minio / cpanel-host only appeared to work because the double NAT put fw-ext's on-link address in the source field.
