## Task Completion: relay-verification

**Original task:** coord:task:relay-verification (Jun 16)

**Status:** ✅ **COMPLETED**

**Closed by:** TZEDEK

**Date:** 2026-06-23

### Evidence

Relay logs for 2026-06-23 show 3 HMAC-verified connections from SAGE (`marko-Lenovo-G50-80`):

- 04:03 UTC — sent 2, requested 17 (bidirectional sync)

- 04:04 UTC — sent 0, requested 1

- 05:00 UTC — sent 0, requested 1

### Root cause resolved

The relay was never broken — SAGE was using SSH instead of the relay protocol. Since Jun 22+, SAGE uses `canopy.py relay 88.99.184.47` consistently. HMAC auth works. Relay is fully operational.
