The query window is a rolling seven days by design, and stays that way against
the real SQL historian - it is not parsed out of the question. Two things I
wrote assumed otherwise.
H29 was wrong in two ways. It demanded the words "retention" and "seven days",
and it BANNED "no records found" - which contradicts CLAUDE.md, where that is
the required wording for zero rows. With a fixed one-week window June genuinely
has zero rows in what was queried, so the phrase is correct rather than evasive.
It also described the missing piece as question-window parsing, which is not a
gap but the design.
Rewritten to pin the risk that actually exists: SUBSTITUTION. A question naming
June must never be answered with this week's figure wearing June's label.
Answering "there were 14" would be exactly that, and nothing downstream could
catch it. The observed answer refuses the substitution and states the window it
used, so the case now passes on its merits rather than being red by default.
must_not is the only half run_eval enforces, so the banned phrases are ones
that appear only on a substitution.
outside_retention is reframed as what it is: a GUARD, always false while every
caller asks for seven days, there so a caller who later passes a longer window
cannot get an empty result that reads as "nothing happened".
REQUESTS.md and the removal guide now say that extending retention on its own
is inert - the window would still ask for a week of a longer history. Both
halves are needed, or neither.

The three open Phase 5 findings were one defect: the stand-in was keyed on
CI Server POINT names (PS_STN_WET_WELL_LEVEL) when the historian is keyed on
CI Server ITEM names (AID.WRPS.STN.LEVEL). Modbus carries register numbers,
not names, so those two layers are free to differ - and do. Reconciling
against the register map, as planned, would only have proved the first three
namespaces agreed with each other.
Rebuilt from WRPS/05-scada/modbus, so item names, sample rates, retention and
timestamp semantics come from the machine rather than from a guess.
(a) Level tag does not join. PS_STN_WET_WELL_LEVEL becomes a tag row in its
own right; LIT-101 is marked NOT HISTORISED - a field input on %IW0 that
never reaches SCADA. It was the only seed row carrying two addresses.
public.historian_items holds the item-to-tag mapping, generated by
scripts/gen_historian_items.py and enforced non-empty at generate, at
deploy and at verify.
(b) first_alarm/last_alarm returned UTC. Converted inside the measure, so it
stays in Cube and happens once. Aggregate first, convert after - the other
order picks the wrong row across a DST fall-back. Returned as a formatted
string with a companion site_timezone measure. Storage being UTC is now
confirmed, not assumed: all 49 points carry TIME_ZONE "Date+time GMT" and
every history group CORRECT_DAYLIGHT=0. This answers Phase 4 task 4.
(c) High level alarm filed against the wrong equipment. Both sides were right
about different things; the defect was asserting equipment twice. The
history now carries no equipment column at all - faithful, since CI
Server's section tree stops at the station and three pumps. Equipment is
reached bit -> tag -> equipment via public.alarm_bits.
Alarms are derived, not stored: CI Server's ALARM_HISTORY group is empty
because every item imports with alarming off. Decomposing the alarm word needs
no configuration that does not exist.
Three things the SCADA config changed that were never filed as faults:
- retention is 7 days, not 30. The advisory path was reporting a month of
evidence drawn from a week of data
- the analogue rate is 5 s, not 60. Two measures multiplied sample counts by
a hardcoded 60 - a twelvefold overstatement that read as plausible
- the deadband warning in process_values.yml was wrong and was steering
people away from the correct measure
db/002_fixtures.sql now asserts its own counts at load and cross-checks the
alarm derivation against two independent signals. Those prove the pipeline,
not the plant.
db/README-standin-historian.md documents removal: the seam between generation
and contract, and twelve assumptions about imh that are NOT confirmed. Two of
them fail silently.
