Run 1 (2026-07-31) of the estate-wide Friday release train shipped zero releases: GitHub fired the crons 60-115 minutes late, and the exact-hour Prague gate self-skipped every run green (no failure signal, just silent no-ops).
This moves server-memory (L1) off the double-cron + Prague-hour-gate pattern to a single UTC cron - '0 20 * * 5' - with the gate job deleted entirely. A late-firing cron now just means the train departs late instead of being gated away.
