The survivor island, unplugged for real
Reconstruction⚠ This is not a live capture: a condensed reconstruction from the real session transcript (2026-08-05). The prompts are verbatim, waits are compressed, and hostnames and addresses are fictional.
Three days of power outages, then four deliberate pulls of the plug to check what had to outlive everything else: the router, the modem and a single Raspberry Pi, on the least loaded UPS.
This session is the last of the four. The shutdown cascade fires on the UPS’s native signal, the permission classifier stops the agent along the way, and the IPMI wake-up runs into a BMC that is not on the VLAN where it is being looked for. The repair happens in-band, and the outage closes itself when the latch sees power come back.
