   - host-specific posture for Proxmox / Erik / Mac Studio remains the job of explicit host-audit logic.
   - after rebuild + deploy + health sync:
     - live Postgres open findings returned to `0`.
+- Follow-up hardening on the same block:
+  - the earlier RunPod error path in MAGATAMA dashboard was made more truthful.
+  - dataset preparation now distinguishes:
+    - local `training:refresh-all` failure
+    - optional Hugging Face publish failure
+    - URL-based dataset mode with no external publish required
+  - the training SSE flow now explicitly tells the operator whether RunPod is using:
+    - Hugging Face dataset source
+    - or MAGATAMA URL-bundle dataset source
+  - this avoids misleading `RunPod not reachable` wording when the actual failure is in dataset preparation.
 
 - MAGATAMA was repaired end-to-end to a clean operational baseline:
   - live guard host-audits for Erik, Mac Studio, and Proxmox were corrected and rerun.

+# 2026-05-06 — MAGATAMA RunPod Status Truthfulness
+
+## Why this was needed
+
+After the script/registry repair, MAGATAMA could refresh the local RunPod datasets again, but the operator-facing status flow was still too coarse:
+
+- failures in local dataset preparation
+- failures in optional Hugging Face publish
+- and actual RunPod availability
+
+were too easy to confuse.
+
+This produced the impression that “RunPod is broken” even when the real problem was just dataset preparation on Erik.
+
+## Changes
+
+Patched:
+
+- `magatama/packages/dashboard/src/server.ts`
+
+Behavior now:
+
+- dataset source is normalized to either:
+  - `huggingface`
+  - `url`
+- local dataset refresh (`training:refresh-all`) is wrapped with a dedicated error:
+  - `Dataset-Refresh fehlgeschlagen: ...`
+- Hugging Face publish is wrapped with a dedicated error:
+  - `HuggingFace-Publish fehlgeschlagen: ...`
+- if Hugging Face mode is selected but `HF_TOKEN` is missing, this is reported directly
+- after successful preparation, the SSE stream now explicitly states:
+  - Hugging Face dataset source in use
+  - or URL-bundle dataset source in use, with no external publish required
+
+## Live effect
+
+The dashboard process was rebuilt and restarted on Erik after this change.
+
+Result:
+
+- RunPod preparation status is more honest
+- operators can distinguish:
+  - data refresh problem
+  - optional external publish problem
+  - actual RunPod training job submission/polling problem
+
+## Notes
+
+- This does not itself force a Hugging Face publish.
+- It only makes the control plane truthful about what step is happening and what actually failed.
