## Paul's rulings after the spec (2026-10-24; do not reopen)
- **R7. `carlos run` on fleet boxes is carried over Plan 6's box-dials-the-console door.** The box dials the console per run on a signed grant, and the console makes the record and `runs/` writes the store door refuses a fleet box (Plan 6 Task 16, which also removes the fleet arm of `runClassRefusal`). Until it lands, Plan 3 keeps `carlos run` refused on fleet boxes, with today's sentence. Plan 4's sample and dev-fleet checklist never depend on `carlos run` on a fleet box for spec §6 step 1.
+- **R11. JIT opt-in in v1** (Paul, 2026-10-24; spec rev 5 §5.11, C10).
+ Manifest field `JIT bool \`json:"jit,omitempty"\`` on rootfs releases
+ only (Plan 1: type, validation, ship door, `--check` warning for
+ Node/Bun/Deno images without it). The control service reads it from the
+ root-staged manifest and renders the start without
+ `MemoryDenyWriteExecute` (a per-start drop-in, the same mechanism as the
+ gen and worker drop-ins), then checks the effective property after start
+ and stops on mismatch (Plan 2). Plan 4's docs add a Node note. No record
+ or route field: it is per release.
- **R8. Who grants egress.** The account that owns a fleet grants egress for its own apps on its own fleet boxes, and within that account **owners only** (Paul, 2026-10-24; members cannot grant or widen a grant); on a single-tenant deployment the platform operator grants (Plan 5 F3, Task 8). The box's `OwnBoxAllowed` is unchanged and still decides where a grant may open anything.
- **R9. Rootfs instances default to the 1 GB tier** (`cgroup.TierChildren`), not 512 MB. Plan 2 owns the tier selection (`rootfsTier`, `GenTier`); Plan 1's `--check` limits memory to it; Plan 4's docs say 1 GB.
- **R10. The dev e2e box.** A new `t4g.small` (arm64) in the dev account (AWS profile `kass`, eu-west-1), as a fleet box, plus its fleet token and a `carlos store` bucket and IAM user, deleted after the checks. Approved by Paul 2026-10-24 for Plan 2 Task 10 and Plan 4 Task 11, which cite it. Any change in account, region, resource type, cost or duration needs a fresh approval; Plans 5 and 6's dev checks are not covered by it.

+### 5.11 The JIT opt-in (R11)
+
+- **Why.** V8 (Node, Deno), JavaScriptCore (Bun), YJIT, opcache's JIT
+ and the JVM write machine code into memory and then make it
+ executable. `MemoryDenyWriteExecute=yes` forbids that; Node aborts at
+ start. `node --jitless` runs, interpreted only and without
+ WebAssembly, which is not a product.
+- **Declaration.** The release manifest carries `"jit": true` (rootfs
+ releases only; refused on binary releases in v1). It is per release:
+ changing it between releases is an ordinary deploy, because nothing
+ about the instance's data or placement depends on it.
+- **Effect.** Every process of that release (web, workers, release,
+ console, `carlos run`, interactive sessions) runs without
+ `MemoryDenyWriteExecute`. Nothing else in the namespace block changes:
+ same mounts, same capability set (empty), `NoNewPrivileges`, the same
+ egress fence, tier and slice.
+- **Who decides.** The box reads `jit` from the root-staged manifest of
+ the release it is starting, never from tenant config or the record.
+- **Where.** Only where rootfs apps run at all (R1): the customer's own
+ boxes. A JIT app weakens nothing for anyone else.
+- **Proof.** After each start the control service checks the unit's
+ effective `MemoryDenyWriteExecute` matches the release's `jit` value,
+ and stops the unit if it does not, as it checks `ControlGroup` for C5.
+ The rootfs probe keeps proving the line is present by default.
+- **`carlos ship --check`** runs JIT apps the same way it runs others
+ (local container runtimes do not apply that filter); it warns when an
+ image looks like Node, Bun or Deno and the manifest does not declare
+ `jit`, because it will pass locally and abort on the box.
