feat(buglog): one Markdown record per bug, checked against a record standard
The buglog was one 27K-line JSON file whose fields covered only symptom,
root cause and fix, as free text: 2% of entries named the code version a
bug was found on, 12% the build profile, 36% a way to reproduce, and 58% of
the file was OpenWolf hook auto-detections ("Missing guard clause",
"Function not marked async" on .md files).

- .claude/skills/buglog/bug-record.md: the record standard. Eight
  sections (Summary as the title, Description, Environment, Reproduction;
  Root cause, Fix, Verification, References once fixed), each with the
  content it must contain -- e.g. Environment needs the OS, the libc the
  failing binary loads (from its ELF interpreter: glibc 2.42 in the nix
  shell vs 2.40 on the host), toolchain, build profile and commit.
- .wolf/bugs/<id>.md: 500 records migrated from buglog.json; every field
  verified to round-trip. They carry legacy: true and an explicit "not
  recorded" where the old log had no such field; component derived from
  file paths, severity from keywords (else unknown), fix_commits from
  hashes in status_note/fix that git resolves (91 of 463 fixed).
- .wolf/buglog-archive.json: the 710 hook auto-detections, verbatim.
- .wolf/buglog.json is now an index generated from the records, keeping
  the fields OpenWolf's hooks and `openwolf bug search` read.
- scripts/buglog.py rewritten: new (template + Environment collected from
  the machine and --binary), check, status (refuses a status the record
  doesn't support; fixed needs Root cause, Fix, Verification and
  --commit hashes git resolves), note, recur, set, show, list, triage,
  env, index. 29 unittest cases in scripts/tests/test_buglog.py.
- scripts/git-hooks/pre-commit runs `check --staged`: incomplete staged
  records, a legacy record hand-changed to fixed without the fix-time
  sections, a new record claiming legacy: true, or a stale index refuse
  the commit.
- scripts/gitea-sync.py reads the records: issue body = the record's
  sections plus linked fix commits (origin remote, GITEA_COMMIT_REPO to
  override), and a body hash so an issue's text is refreshed when the
  record changes.
- bug-1866 rewritten to the full standard as the worked example.

bug-1592: grep/tail: Permission denied on $TOP/logs/xcecd.log after starting the real (production) xcecd…

Description

grep/tail: Permission denied on $TOP/logs/xcecd.log after starting the real (production) xcecd worker via sudo

Environment

Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).

Reproduction

Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).

Root cause

xcecd's main log file (config.log_file, opened by the logging library at daemon startup while running as root) is created with default umask perms (verified live: root:root, mode 640) and never chmod'd permissive -- unlike xcecd_worker.log (explicit open()+chmod(0666) at main.c:536-543) and the domain socket (chmod(config.domain_sock_file, 0666) at main.c:578). Any verification command (grep/tail/cat) run as the invoking non-root user against xcecd.log fails with Permission denied.

Fix

Documented as a known behavior in .claude/skills/xce-deploy-ha/SKILL.md: all log reads against the real worker's xcecd.log must be prefixed with sudo (sudo grep .../sudo tail ...), same as the sudo kill already required to stop the root-owned process. Not a code fix -- xcecd.log intentionally stays root-owned; only the skill's documented verification commands changed.

Verification

Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).
