The Windows host job died in "Build + smoke-boot web console (bun)":
$ bun2nix -o bun.nix
error: bun is not installed in %PATH%
error: postinstall script from "punktfunk-web" exited with 255
bun install failed (255)
`web`'s `postinstall` is `bun2nix -o bun.nix` — Nix codegen that shells out to `bun` on PATH. This
job runs a fetched PORTABLE bun by absolute path (`$env:BUN_EXE`), so PATH has none and the script
aborted the install, taking the installer, the driver bundle and the publish steps with it.
Every other web install in CI already passes `--ignore-scripts` — ci.yml (twice),
web-screenshots.yml, sdk-publish.yml, plugin-kit-publish.yml, and the SDK install 25 lines further
down THIS SAME FILE. This one line was the lone exception: the same N-1-of-N seam asymmetry the
pf-vdisplay sweep keeps turning up. Nothing here needs those scripts — `bun run build` re-runs its
own `prebuild` codegen, and ci.yml proves the build works after an `--ignore-scripts` install —
and `bun.nix` is a Nix artifact this job neither consumes nor commits. deb.yml still regenerates
it (bun on PATH there), so the self-regenerating contract is unchanged.
⚠️ Honest about the evidence: I could NOT reproduce the failure on .173. Invoking the portable bun
by absolute path with `where bun` empty, the postinstall SUCCEEDED there — bun made itself
resolvable to its own lifecycle script, which the SYSTEM-account runner evidently does not. So this
is not a reproduced-then-fixed A/B. It is justified instead by construction: `--ignore-scripts`
removes the dependency on bun2nix (and on how bun2nix locates bun) altogether, and aligns the step
with every sibling. If the job goes green, that is the confirmation.
⚠️ Related trap for whoever deploys the console by hand: rebuilding `web/.output` does NOT take
effect until the `PunktfunkWeb` SCHEDULED TASK is restarted — restarting the host service does not
touch it. A server left running from before a rebuild serves HTML referencing the OLD asset hashes
while disk holds the new ones, so every asset 500s while `/login` still returns 200. Hit on .173
today; `Stop-ScheduledTask PunktfunkWeb; Start-ScheduledTask PunktfunkWeb` fixes it.
