Make the adsb.lol relay opt-in and declare its world - #12

Conversation
Metro config alone used to switch on the relay of real adsb.lol traffic into the server, over the same footprint the synthetic fleet flies in. Each relayed aircraft was a decoy the server's claiming stage could bind a synthetic node's echo to on a delay/Doppler coincidence — a plane icon at a position no radar in either world measured (measured live 2026-08-27: 35% of synthetic-node single-claim icons were such ghosts). The relay now runs only with --real-adsb, and its push body declares source=real so the server stores the world on each cache entry and claiming refuses cross-world binds even when the relay is on. The fleet's own broadcast stays untagged and defaults to the simulated world server-side. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Metro config alone (
--metro/--metros+ a validation URL) used to switch on relaying real adsb.lol traffic into the server, over the same footprint the synthetic fleet flies in. Each relayed aircraft was a decoy the server's claiming stage could bind a synthetic node's echo to on a delay/Doppler coincidence — a plane icon at a position no radar in either world measured (measured live 2026-08-27: 35% of synthetic-node single-claim icons were such ghosts). The relay is now explicit opt-in, and when on, its pushes declare which world they belong to.Changes
--real-adsbflag (default off) gates_push_real_adsb; metro config alone no longer implies it. A log line notes the relay is disabled when metro config is present without the flag.source: "real"(extracted asbuild_real_adsb_body), so the server tags the cache entries and its claiming world-gate refuses cross-world binds even when the relay is on (retina-server companion PR). The fleet's own broadcast stays untagged and defaults to the simulated world server-side.fleet-entrypoint.shgains aFLEET_REAL_ADSBpassthrough in the companion PR; nothing needs setting to keep the relay off.Test coverage
TestBuildRealAdsbBodycovers the source tag and body shape. Suite green (167 passed); pre-commit gate green.main_asyncwiring condition itself is untested (task-assembly code with no harness) — verified by reading and by the entrypoint default.Review notes
FLEET_REAL_ADSB=true(safe once the server-side world gate is deployed). No compose file sets it, so all environments stop injecting on the next fleet rebuild.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
