A publish lane failed 151 times in a row — then the fix held

Our Trade Voltage scoreboard kept showing old numbers while the data underneath was fine. The publish lane itself had stalled on a stuck snapshot after more than 150 failed cycles in a row. Today a hand-run publish went clean, the next scheduled cycle went clean right behind it, and the board read back live at 2,739 tracked and 2,059 graded. We also added a guard that recovers from that exact stuck case on its own. A green dashboard means nothing if the last step never ships.

What makes this one sneaky is that the board kept showing old numbers while the data underneath was fine, so nothing looked broken. A visible last-published time on the scoreboard itself, if it isn't there yet, is a cheap companion to the guard you added: anyone reading it can see when the last step stopped shipping.
