📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis PR adds a workflow that starts a relay node, spawns and releases agents, verifies retained agent IDs, checks credential token rotation after respawn, writes a verdict, and enforces a PASS result. ChangesReleased Agent Recovery
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The workflow can fail to carry its PASS/FAIL result between steps and can report successful release recovery while the original process is still running, weakening the proof of identity recovery and stale-credential handling. These bounded correctness issues should be fixed before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Full details: Description checkExplanation The description clearly explains the workflow and its purpose, but it omits the required Test Plan and RelayFlow Proof sections. It also does not provide the required Change type or RelayFlow case values. Resolution Add the required Test Plan section with test and manual-testing status. Add the RelayFlow Proof section with exactly one valid Change type and one RelayFlow case under tests/relayflows/cases/<case-id>/. Add the Screenshots section or state that it is not applicable.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Use a durable verdict handoff.
Each deterministic step has a fresh sandbox. Line 169 writes desired-verdict.txt only in the first step workspace. Line 181 reads that path in another sandbox. The normal PASS path therefore has no verdict for enforce-verdict.
Publish the verdict through the Relayfile handoff, then read that explicit handoff in enforce-verdict.

Verify that the original process exits after release.
Line 119 proves that /api/spawned no longer lists TARGET. It does not prove that the process recorded in TARGET_PID at Line 96 has exited. A release can deregister placement while leaving the old process alive. The respawn can then pass and write PASS.
After release, poll for /proc/$TARGET_PID to disappear before continuing.

Summary
Adds a Cloud Relayflow red/green proof for the released-agent recovery lifecycle.
The proof:
What it catches
It fails if release only removes the local process but never deregisters its broker placement, if same-name spawn remains create-only and collides with the retained identity, if recovery silently creates a different agent identity, if stale credentials are reused, or if the Cloud runner loses lifecycle state between steps.
This commit intentionally preserves the proof artifact before the product fix; it is suitable for demonstrating the defect red and the eventual fix green.
Do not merge until the mandated defect/fix/dev evidence sequence is complete.
