+### Fixed
+- **`drift-nudge-test` no longer fails the deploy gate on a loaded box.** It waited a flat 150ms for the
+  background drift judge, which makes three HTTP round trips to its stub. On a 2 GB droplet at load ~22
+  that lost the race on every `make-live` run, while the same test passed when run alone. It now awaits the
+  judge's real promises.
