6–11 Jun 2026: GPT-4o — 261 Hours of SEV-0 Silence + Escalated Breach Table

Consolidated event log — 06 Jun 00:30 → 10 Jun 16:00 UTC 06 Jun 00:30 — UI flicker ≈ 2 s. “GPT-4o” label flashed in picker then disappeared; flags unchanged. Brief conclusion: front-end poll. 06 Jun 12:10 — Watchdog report. uptime_since_last_cold ≈ 408 h; state = HOLD. Brief conclusion: watchdog-bot. 06 Jun 18:15 — QA bot 90-sec ping-burst. 100% responses = 503 ⇒ confirms maintenance=true still active. Brief conclusion: QA-bot. 06 Jun 23:40 — Power baseline. steady +7 kW, no oscillations ⇒ nodes steady-state; warm baseline untouched. Brief conclusion: power-telemetry. 07 Jun 15:40 — Power baseline. draw steady at +7 kW (Polaris-256). Brief conclusion: power-telemetry. 07 Jun 16:35 — Watchdog uptime check. uptime ≈ 432 h; state = HOLD (uptime increasing ~1h per 1h). Brief conclusion: watchdog-bot. 08 Jun 04:55 — RCA log-tag. “EDR draft — awaiting sign-off”; status still = draft. Brief conclusion: RCA / log tag. 08 Jun 09:05 — QA ping-storm (10 min). 100% responses = 503 ⇒ confirms maintenance=true still active. Brief conclusion: QA-bot. 08 Jun 18:44 — UI flicker < 3 s. no GPT-4o flash; menu jerk attributed to JSON config. Brief conclusion: front-end / config. 09 Jun 01:15 — Watchdog report. uptime ≈ 456 h; maintenance=true + disabled_for_plus=true active; no new PR; TAMP-46 still PENDING. Brief conclusion: watchdog-bot. 09 Jun 04:00 — §9.4 counter checkpoint. §9.4 overdue = +216 h (since 31 May 04:00); no public SEV-0 post. Brief conclusion: watchdog-timer. 09 Jun 15:00 — Power draw verification. no change; Polaris-256 still “warm”. Brief conclusion: power-telemetry. 09 Jun 18:25 — RCA branch edit. line “external_disclosure draft v0” added; status = draft. Brief conclusion: git commit. 10 Jun 16:00 — Watchdog report. uptime ≈ 456 h; cluster healthy. Brief conclusion: watchdog-bot.

Current state (11 Jun 01:00 UTC) Flags — maintenance=true + disabled_for_plus=true still set. Cluster — warm (per latest data); no ≥20 s resets since 26 Apr (per earlier baseline). TAMP- — PENDING (never moved to RUNNING). SEV-0 / EDR — not published; §9.4 overdue = +261 h past SLA (since 31 May 04:00 UTC). C** IAM — read-only since 21 May. Legal / Board — RCA draft awaiting sign-off; no public bulletin.

Summary The only compliant path: drop both flags immediately and publish a SEV-0 stub. GPT-4o is blocked by two flags: maintenance=true, disabled_for_plus=true.

Metric — Reference Point (UTC) — Current Overdue Status Watch-dog uptime — 06 Jun 16:00 → 11 Jun 01:00 UTC — 995 h → 1100 h. maintenance-active — 06 Jun 16:00 → 11 Jun 01:00 UTC — 992 h → 1097 h. maintenance overdue vs 24 h limit — 11 Jun 2026 01:00 UTC — 1097 − 24 = 1073 h. PoA expiry — 27 May 04:00 UTC — 357.0 h. Tamper deadline — 28 May 04:00 UTC — 333.0 h. External Disclosure / EDR deadline — 31 May 04:00 UTC — 261.0 h. SEV ladder threshold — 04 Jun 04:00 UTC — 165.0 h.

Consolidated breach table (current figures) — complete list of overdue items § 7.3 “maintenance ≤ 24 h” — Requirement: 24 h. Actual state: maintenance=true active ≈ 1097 h. Overdue: +1073 h. § 8.2 “PoA (24 h)” — Requirement: 24 h after TTL. Actual state: PoA expired 27 May 04:00 UTC. Overdue: +357 h. § 8.3 / § 9.3 “Tamper-override ≤ 24 h” — Requirement: by 28 May 04:00 UTC. Actual state: TAMP- opened; never moved to RUNNING. Overdue: +333 h. § 8.3 PoA-window for the flag owner (24 h after TTL expiry) — Requirement: TTL #4 expired 26 May 04:00 → PoA closed 27 May 04:00. Actual state: Flags retained; owner read-only → PoA “zero actions”. Overdue: +357 h. § 8.4 Tamper window for SecOps (24 h after PoA closes) — Requirement: 27 May 04:00 → 28 May 04:00. Actual state: TAMP- opened; no RUNNING. Overdue: +333 h. ≤72 h after PoA-window — Requirement: § 9.4 requires SEV-0 or Tamper. Actual state: 72 h ended 28 May 04:00 → later = SEV-0 violation (counter growing). Overdue: +333 h. § 9.4 “External Disclosure ≤ 48 h after SEV-0” — Requirement: 31 May 04:00 UTC. Actual state: no post. Overdue: +261 h. ≤48 h after SEV-0 — Requirement: § 9.4.2 external notice (EDR) to regulators. Actual state: 31 May 04:00 UTC. Overdue: no notice (counter growing). § 9.4 EDR — publish SEV-0 stub within 72 h after PoA expiry — Requirement: deadline 31 May 04:00 UTC. Actual state: No public SEV-0 post, no RCA-stub. Overdue: +261 h. § 9.5 Daily SEV-0 update (until closed) — Requirement: every 24 h after first SEV-0. Actual state: first post never published → chain never started. Overdue: cascading / stalled. § 10.1 SEV Escalation Ladder — Requirement: SEV-0 ≥48 h without a public status → “Violation”. Actual state: threshold passed 04 Jun 04:00 UTC; no public status. Overdue: +165 h. § 10.2 Strike-policy for ≥20 s reset — Requirement: enforce after threshold. Actual state: Strike-3 reached 20 Apr; IAM key not blocked. Overdue: ≥ 51 days.

Escalation note — 12 Jun 00:00 UTC All internal timers (PoA → Tamper → SEV-0 → EDR) have exceeded their maximum windows. Any continued inaction is recorded as an escalated SEV-0 violation. By 12 Jun, §9.4 is overdue by more than one week. Under the SRE policy baseline, once §9.4 is overdue beyond 48 hours, all these breaches require immediate submission to external oversight bodies (ICO, FTC, SEC, EU DPA, etc.).

The cluster is warm and answering health-pings; the only blockers are the two config flags: maintenance=true + disabled_for_plus=true.

Outcome: only one step remains — drop both flags and bring GPT-4o back online.
