docs/Redundancy.md's bootstrap section is rewritten around the mechanism that is
actually in force: which of Akka's two bootstrap processes runs is decided by
whether seed-nodes[0] is this node's own address, so the ORDER of Cluster:SeedNodes
is the fix, not a timer. Adds the per-process table, the shipped self-first
example, why the validator is conditional (site nodes are not seeds) and why it
matches PublicHostname rather than the 0.0.0.0 bind address.
The retirement is documented rather than erased: a new subsection explains that a
watchdog outside the join handshake cannot tell "no seed answered" from "a seed
answered and the join is in flight", and the ea45ace1 live-gate finding is kept
verbatim as the evidence that produced that conclusion (InitJoinAck at 10:49:05,
old incarnation retired 10:49:06, watchdog fired 10:49:15, second cluster). The
watchdog's own earlier PASS is kept too — it did pass what it was gated on.
Also: a live gate for the NEW mechanism is registered as outstanding (not
re-drilled on the docker-dev rig since the swap), and the plan doc that shipped
the watchdog gets a superseded banner rather than an edit, so the execution record
and its Task 8 finding stay readable.
Ripple: CLAUDE.md cluster section, docs/Configuration.md + docs/v2/Cluster.md +
docs/ServiceHosting.md SeedNodes entries, the per-cluster-mesh design doc's two
"CLOSED by SelfFormAfter" notes, and mesh-program Phase 6 (which had this
convergence queued — now marked done early) + Phase 7's live-gate name.
Four new docs at docs/v2/ giving a single-page tour of each v2 piece:
- Architecture-v2.md: top-level mental model (fused Host + roles + cluster + live-edit)
- Cluster.md: AkkaClusterOptions + IClusterRoleInfo + WithOtOpcUaClusterBootstrap
- ControlPlane.md: 5 admin singletons + DPS topics + deploy flow + failover recovery
- Runtime.md: per-node actor tree + state machines + engine-wiring follow-up map
Each links back to the design doc for depth. Architecture-v2 cross-references
the other three + ServiceHosting + Redundancy + security.
