Twinned from https://github.com/cfsh/ninefold/issues/609 by tools/beads/import_github.py's reconcile pass.
## The environments in notes/machines.md still opens with ``uname -s = Linux → the WSL office box`, and the studio now has a **non-WSL** Linux box (the garage VM, nf-dev-sg`, provisioned 2026-08-05) that resolves to that same branch and has a different user, different toolchain paths, no display server and its own posture. A session that follows the doc lands on the wrong entry.
The fix already exists and is in review — PR #549 (chore/office-awareness) restructures the section into four postures and adds the VM entry with the xvfb-run trap and the probe-baseline note. Nothing here duplicates it.
The gap is that nothing tracks it if #549 does not land. #549 has no backing issue, and #601 — which named this staleness as part of its scope — closes when #603 merges. #603 deliberately narrowed its own machines.md diff to a ### Measure the box subsection placed where neither branch conflicts, precisely so it would not race #549's restructure; that was the right call for f5 and it leaves the inventory itself unowned.
So this exists to be closed by #549 merging, and to be visible if it does not.
