O8B-retry Report 01 — Precheck-live: Mac SSOT + Contabo (G0)

• macro: v0.6-o8b-retry-mac-reconcile-deploy-live-wiring
• date_utc: 2026-05-21 · effort: high
• gate covered: G0 PRECHECK-LIVE / correct host

1. The wrong-environment block is cleared

The first O8B attempt was ruled BLOCKED_WITH_EXACT_O8B_GAP because it ran on the Contabo VPS, where the Mac SSOT repo is absent and unreachable (reviews/dot-iu-cutter-v0.6-o8b-wrong-env-blocked-gpt-ruling-2026-05-21.md). This retry runs from the developer Mac — the host O8B requires.

Check	Result
host	Nguyens-MacBook-Air.local — Darwin 25.5.0 arm64, user nmhuyen
identity	the developer Mac = the SSOT host
Mac SSOT repo	PRESENT — /Users/nmhuyen/iu-cutter-build/repo/iu-cutter
git repo valid	PASS — branch main, working tree CLEAN
HEAD	6625f76 feat(orchestrator): add O4 live dry-run orchestration
remote	none (local SSOT only — no push is possible or attempted)
KB read/upload	PASS — agent-data MCP list / batch_read / upload all work
SSH → Contabo	PASS — ssh contabo → vmi3080463, root, uptime OK

The Mac repo HEAD 6625f76 matches the expected base from the macro brief and the O8A/O8B reports.

2. Contabo-side targets (reached over SSH)

Path	Role	Status
/opt/incomex/dot/iu-cutter-v0.6-o8a-staging	O8A staging source	PRESENT, intact
/opt/incomex/dot/iu-cutter-v0.6	deployed v0.6	PRESENT (pre-O8A baseline)
/opt/incomex/dot/iu-cutter	v0.4 skeleton	PRESENT, git HEAD e93424b

Both the Mac SSOT source repo and the verified O8A staging files are reachable from this session — the G0 STOP condition does not trigger.
