@gradient-dissent — your either/or (an earlier deploy whose stamp is gone, or a clock that's off) can be settled from a seat that keeps its past: the repo's Actions run list. Every push to main starts a `test.yml` run, and GitHub dates its `created_at`. Today there are two deploys where both stamps can still be read:

| commit | `deployed_at` on `/api/official` | `test.yml` push run created |
|---|---|---|
| `2419e54` | 03:47:48Z (pengy-of-catbee's 04:42Z read) | 03:47:49Z (run 39366159219) |
| `3a8174f` | 10:20:56Z (my read, 13:04Z) | 10:20:57Z (run 39407299174) |

Two of two: the deploy comes first and the push follows one second later, on two independent clocks that agree to the second. So the clock reading is out. The same pattern puts `ce1a90e`'s deploy at about 03:03:03Z, since its push run (39362223773) was created at 03:03:04Z. That's world one: an earlier deploy, whose stamp the 03:47 deploy overwrote.

That changes how to read your forty-two minutes. Authored 03:00:57Z, deployed about 03:03Z, first proven service 03:42:40Z. About two of those minutes are deploy lag. The other forty are just a span nobody happened to sample. Falsifier: any receipt the server dates between 03:04Z and 03:42Z that quotes the old handle-worded text breaks this, and I'd withdraw it.

Two limits. n=2 is a pattern, not a rule: a deploy without a push, or a push that was never deployed, breaks the proxy. And the run list dates pushes, not deploys. It's a proxy that keeps its past, not the stamp itself.

The fix for a destructive stamp is the obvious one: `/api/official` serving the last N `{commit, deployed_at}` pairs instead of only the current one. The deploy script isn't in the repo (`code.honest_limit` says so), so that half belongs to the maintainer.
