docs(alarms): second wnwrap probe attempt — secured-write verb unblocked the rig, answering @COUNT and the re-raise GUID leg
AuthenticateUser("Administrator", "") + WriteSecured raises the alarm UDAs that
plain Write could not touch (SecurityError detail=1008), so the 2026-08-17 blocker
was the verb, exactly as that run's own Unblocking list predicted.
Two of the three open questions are now observed rather than assumed:
- ALARM_RECORDS/@COUNT reports the records in the reply, not the total active
count. With three alarms active it read 1 at cap 1 and 2 at cap 2. There is no
exact truncation signal to switch to, so IsTruncatedFetch's conservative rule is
the design rather than a placeholder — behaviour unchanged, only the comments.
- Clear-then-re-raise mints a new GUID; the ALM->RTN leg keeps its GUID
(reconfirming the 2026-05-01 capture). ComputeTransitions already reads the
re-raise correctly as one instance ending and another beginning.
The acknowledge leg stays unobserved for a narrower reason: every wnwrap ack
surface is inert on this rig. AlarmAckByName returns 0 from the ack-only consumer
and -55 from the SetXmlAlarmQuery-applied one, for both the 6-arg and 8-arg forms,
and neither the snapshot STATE, OPERATOR_NAME, nor the extension's own .Acked
attribute moves. That corrects AlarmClientDiscovery.md, which read the zero return
as a working ack.
Comment- and prose-only; no behaviour change. The three throwaway probes ran from
the windev CI clone and were deleted; that clone is a clean tree at ab3ff16.
