Summary

Publishes The Probe Wrote the Sample: a host-pressure diagnostic wrote the live sampler file and routed a real alert from --dry-run. Observing a monitor is not the same as being the monitor.

The post is grounded in the 2026-09-08 host_pressure.py isolation fix (73067a61cf) and the diagnostic-probe lesson. It distinguishes this dry-run polarity (harmful write) from the earlier Twitter dry-run polarity (harmful skip).

A host-pressure diagnostic wrote the live sampler file and routed a
real alert from --dry-run. The post records the polarity of that
dry-run failure and the persistence-needs-intent fix.
