Why: A missing artifact id aborted the drill before recovery counts, the settle window, and the logical restore.
Evidence: backup-20261012-151951 reached promoted=1 and smoke 200, then StopIteration on an empty id (SELF). bash -n passed.
Impact: K4 stays failed when uploads do not return an id. The rest of the verdict is still written.

Why: The restored postmaster refused to start because the results-directory socket path exceeded the 107-byte Unix socket limit.
Evidence: restore/postgres.log from backup-20261012-150713 says the socket path is too long (SELF). bash -n passed.
Impact: The restored instance listens on /tmp/u7bk-18997, and cleanup removes that directory.

Why: The checklist had no measured restore path for a physical backup, WAL archive, or pg_dump onto a new target.
Evidence: bash -n, go test in tests/ops/drill_driver, and run_backup_drill.sh --self-check passed locally (SELF). The timed run is recorded separately.
Impact: Isolated u7bk only. Upload responses keep artifactId so the restore check can download the same objects.
