If you see the banner during steps 8→11 of an upgrade on a current bundle, it is a **regression**, not expected behaviour: the routes have drifted back onto `maxy.service` or the edge's Hono dispatcher is not intercepting them. Check `~/.maxy/logs/edge.log` for `[edge-admin]` entries during the window; absence means the edge never received the request.

Any missing row localises the failure: no edge inbound = request never reached the device (network, DNS, or cloudflare tunnel); inbound present + no auth verdict = handler unreachable (Hono routing regression); auth verdict = reject + a `code=` value the client banner matches; auth = accept + no handler entry = post-auth routing regression; all three rows present + no edge outcome = upstream crash or socket abort.

 - **conversation-archive-enrich** — Phase 2 over a named `:ConversationArchive`. Source-agnostic — runs against any archive produced by the `conversation-archive` skill regardless of source. Operator-triggered only (never auto-fires on Phase 1 completion). Walks `:Section:Conversation` chunks in pages via the read-only MCP tool `mcp__memory__conversation-archive-derive-insights` (which calls Haiku per chunk on OAuth, NOT the API key) and surfaces high-confidence claims for per-row operator gate (`wire / skip / reject`) over four kinds — `mention`, `task`, `preference`, `observed-relationship`. Idempotent on `(elementId(chunk), kind, contentHash)`: re-runs collapse identical claims via MERGE. Load: `platform/plugins/memory/skills/conversation-archive-enrich/SKILL.md`. Trigger phrasing: operator names a specific archive AND asks for insights / enrichment / derived claims — never the ingest skill's completion event.

 Guides setting up a Cloudflare Tunnel so the platform is reachable via a custom domain. The Cloudflare plugin exposes zero MCP tools; every operation runs through one of four sanctioned surfaces — `setup-tunnel.sh` (autonomous), `reset-tunnel.sh` (reset), `manual-setup.md` (runbook), or `dashboard-guide.md` (click-paths the operator runs in their browser). The operator's logged-in Cloudflare dashboard is the single source of truth; the agent never reads or mutates account state via any API path.

 **Autonomous setup.** Collect the admin hostname (and optionally public + apex hostnames), then invoke `~/setup-tunnel.sh <brand> <port> <admin-hostname> [<public-hostname>] [<apex-hostname>]` via Bash. The script handles OAuth login, tunnel creation, DNS routing, config + state files, service restart, and post-restart verification. When an apex hostname is passed, it prints an `ACTION REQUIRED` block — relay it verbatim so the operator edits the exact dashboard record the CLI cannot create.
