Logbook — July 2026

Week of Monday 6th — A LocalStateQuery liveness fix. Root-caused a stuck-response hang where a silently-lost LSQ response wedged every subsequent query, then bounded stalled responses and added connection-scope liveness monitoring, backed by a live-node e2e regression added to the gate. Saturday closed the loop on the reopened recovery path so LSQ callers recover from a dropped connection instead of failing permanently.

Friday 10th

Bounded LocalStateQuery responses (PV)

Issues: #182, #183

• Merged fix: bound stalled LocalStateQuery responses #184 — closed #182 and #183; bound stalled LSQ responses and monitor LSQ liveness at connection scope so a silently-lost query response no longer wedges every subsequent query; added a live-node e2e regression to the gate

Saturday 11th

LSQ connection-loss recovery (PV)

• Merged fix(n2c): recover LSQ callers from connection loss #185 — recover LSQ callers after a lost connection so a dropped node connection no longer strands in-flight callers (reopened connection-recovery follow-up to #184)

Week of Monday 20th — Bringing the E2E devnet up to mainnet's protocol reality. Thursday added a withDevnetConfig option that runs the devnet at protocol version 11 with the full production PlutusV3 cost model, driving a real on-chain governance transition — DRep registration, stake delegation, CC hot-key authorization, HardForkInitiation and ParameterChange — across epoch boundaries on a live devnet, while leaving the default PV10 withDevnet untouched. Getting there surfaced an upstream genesis defect where the stock committee arrangement made governance enactment permanently impossible, fixed alongside it.

Thursday 23rd

Devnet protocol version 11 and governance enactment (PV)

Issues: #187, #190

• Merged feat(devnet): support protocol version 11 and full PlutusV3 cost model #188 — closed #187; adds a withDevnetConfig option bringing the devnet to protocol version 11 with the full production PlutusV3 cost model, driving a real on-chain governance transition (DRep registration, stake delegation, CC hot-key authorization, HardForkInitiation + ParameterChange proposals and votes) across epoch boundaries on a live devnet; default PV10 withDevnet is unchanged
• Merged fix(devnet): stock committee arrangement blocks all governance enactment #191 — closed #190; stock genesis shipped committeeMinSize: 7 with an empty committee, making committeeAccepted permanently unsatisfiable so no governance action could ever enact on a fresh withDevnet devnet
