Completed 2026-10-09T12:54:35Z via box tasks done:
Standardized recover-after-rebuild.sh for container workspaces under cloud-uptime/recover-after-rebuild.sh. Implemented: 1) dynamic sourcing of ~/workspace/tunnel/machine.env (MUSE_MACHINE, SSH_PORT, TERM_PORT), 2) single-transaction apt package installs with deb cache check, 3) persistent crontab restore via persistent-crontab.sh, 4) SSH key and host key auto-restoration, 5) dry-run mode support. Added test suite in tests/test_recover_after_rebuild.py with 4/4 passing unit tests (syntax, dry-run, env override). Committed to branch builder/container-rebuild-recovery (a5990a0).
