Move the base pins again, two days after the last move Both quay digests were 404 again. git log -S puts both of them in 2249522, the 2026-08-06 repin, so quay collected a pin 48 hours after it was written. The first deletion read as bad luck; a two-day lifetime reads as retention following the tag, which makes a digest pin here a tag pin with extra steps. That retires refreshing on a cadence: beating two days means a bot rewriting this file nightly, and moving a pin is a person's call. Mirroring the base or dropping the rebuildable-past claim are what is left. GO alloy ebf30337 and the wiki note carry the decision.
