Extends the Docker monitoring and alerting system to track writable layer
usage as a percentage of the container's root filesystem. This helps
identify containers with bloated copy-on-write layers before they
consume excessive disk space.
- Add disk threshold to DockerThresholdConfig (default: 85% trigger, 80% clear)
- Evaluate disk alerts for running containers when RootFilesystemBytes > 0
- Include disk metadata (writable layer, total filesystem, block I/O stats)
- Update frontend to display and configure disk thresholds
- Add test coverage for disk usage alert hysteresis
- Document disk monitoring in DOCKER_MONITORING.md
Per-container and per-host overrides apply to disk thresholds the same
way they do for CPU and memory.
When a Docker host successfully completes a stop command and confirms
it has disabled itself, automatically clear the removal block to allow
immediate re-enrollment.
This fixes the UX issue where users who remove a Docker host cannot
immediately reinstall it with a new token, as the host ID remains
blocked for 24 hours. The block is still needed to prevent zombie
reports from stale agents, but once the agent confirms it stopped
successfully, there's no need to keep the block.
Changes:
- Clear removal block in HandleCommandAck after successful host removal
- Allows remove → reinstall workflow without manual intervention
- Block remains for forced removals or offline hosts (as intended)
This commit addresses multiple issues in the Docker/host agent removal flow:
Agent Stop Fix:
- Add systemctl stop command after agent acknowledgement to prevent systemd restart
- Previous behavior: agent disabled but systemd immediately restarted it (Restart=always)
- New behavior: agent disables itself, sends ack, then stops systemd service completely
UX Improvements:
- Add real-time elapsed time counter during removal wait
- Show progress indicators prominently (no longer hidden in dropdown)
- Display expected time range (30-60 seconds) and last heartbeat
- Auto-show timeout warning after 2 minutes with actionable "Force remove" button
- Add contextual help explaining what's happening at each stage
Security Enhancement:
- Automatically revoke API tokens when removing Docker/host agents
- Previous behavior: tokens remained valid after agent removal
- New behavior: tokens are revoked and persisted immediately on removal
- Prevents removed agents from re-authenticating with old credentials
Extends Docker container monitoring with comprehensive disk and storage information:
- Writable layer size and root filesystem usage displayed in new Disk column
- Block I/O statistics (read/write bytes totals) shown in container drawer
- Mount metadata including type, source, destination, mode, and driver details
- Configurable via --collect-disk flag (enabled by default, can be disabled for large fleets)
Also fixes config watcher to consistently use production auth config path instead of following PULSE_DATA_DIR when in mock mode.
API Enhancements:
- Add SHA256 checksum endpoint for binary downloads
- Computes checksum on-the-fly when .sha256 suffix is requested
- Example: /download/pulse-host-agent?platform=linux&arch=amd64.sha256
- Enables installer scripts to verify binary integrity
- Add /uninstall-host-agent.sh endpoint for Linux/macOS uninstall script
- Add endpoint to public paths (no auth required)
Checksum Implementation:
- New serveChecksum() function computes SHA256 hash using crypto/sha256
- Returns plain text checksum in hex format
- Supports all binary download endpoints
- Zero performance impact (only computed when requested)
Install Script Updates:
- Add --force/-f flag to skip all interactive prompts
- URL/token prompts skipped with --force
- Reinstall confirmation skipped with --force
- Checksum mismatch still aborts (security first)
- Force mode auto-accepts updates and reinstalls
- Usage: ./install-host-agent.sh --url $URL --token $TOKEN --force
Security Notes:
- Checksum verification protects against:
- Corrupted downloads due to network issues
- Man-in-the-middle binary tampering
- Storage corruption on server
- Force mode maintains security by aborting on checksum mismatch
- No bypass for security-critical validations
These improvements enable:
- Automated deployments (--force flag)
- Binary integrity verification (checksums)
- Better security posture (tamper detection)
- Standardized uninstall process (endpoint)
The /api/version endpoint already exists and returns version info
for update checks (no changes needed).
Windows Host Agent Enhancements:
- Implement native Windows service support using golang.org/x/sys/windows/svc
- Add Windows Event Log integration for troubleshooting
- Create professional PowerShell installation/uninstallation scripts
- Add process termination and retry logic to handle Windows file locking
- Register uninstall endpoint at /uninstall-host-agent.ps1
Host Agent UI Improvements:
- Add expandable drawer to Hosts page (click row to view details)
- Display system info, network interfaces, disks, and temperatures in cards
- Replace status badges with subtle colored indicators
- Remove redundant master-detail sidebar layout
- Add search filtering for hosts
Technical Details:
- service_windows.go: Windows service lifecycle management with graceful shutdown
- service_stub.go: Cross-platform compatibility for non-Windows builds
- install-host-agent.ps1: Full Windows installation with validation
- uninstall-host-agent.ps1: Clean removal with process termination and retries
- HostsOverview.tsx: Expandable row pattern matching Docker/Proxmox pages
Files Added:
- cmd/pulse-host-agent/service_windows.go
- cmd/pulse-host-agent/service_stub.go
- scripts/install-host-agent.ps1
- scripts/uninstall-host-agent.ps1
- frontend-modern/src/components/Hosts/HostsOverview.tsx
- frontend-modern/src/components/Hosts/HostsFilter.tsx
The Windows service now starts reliably with automatic restart on failure,
and the uninstall script handles file locking gracefully without requiring reboots.
Introduces granular permission scopes for API tokens (docker:report, docker:manage, host-agent:report, monitoring:read/write, settings:read/write) allowing tokens to be restricted to minimum required access. Legacy tokens default to full access until scopes are explicitly configured.
Adds standalone host agent for monitoring Linux, macOS, and Windows servers outside Proxmox/Docker estates. New Servers workspace in UI displays uptime, OS metadata, and capacity metrics from enrolled agents.
Includes comprehensive token management UI overhaul with scope presets, inline editing, and visual scope indicators.
Export/import payload bumped to v4.1 to include API tokens alongside existing
config bundle, eliminating blind spots in disaster recovery scenarios.
## Key Features
**API Tokens in Exports (v4.1)**
- Exports now include API token metadata (ID, name, hash, prefix, suffix, timestamps)
- Export format version bumped from 4.0 to 4.1
- Fixes gap where API tokens were lost during config migrations
**Transactional Atomic Imports**
- New importTransaction helper stages all writes before committing
- On failure, automatic rollback restores original configs
- Prevents partial/corrupted imports that could break running systems
- All config writes (nodes, alerts, email, webhooks, apprise, system, OIDC, API tokens, guest metadata) now transaction-aware
**Backward Compatibility**
- Version 4.0 exports (without API tokens) still import successfully
- System logs notice but proceeds, leaving existing API tokens untouched
- No breaking changes to existing export/import workflows
## Implementation
**Files Added:**
- internal/config/import_transaction.go - Transaction helper with staging/rollback
**Files Modified:**
- internal/config/export.go - v4.1 export, transactional ImportConfig wrapper
- internal/config/persistence.go - Transaction-aware Save* methods, beginTransaction/endTransaction helpers
- internal/config/persistence_test.go - 4 comprehensive unit tests
**Testing:**
- TestExportConfigIncludesAPITokens - Verifies API tokens in v4.1 exports
- TestImportConfigTransactionalSuccess - Validates atomic import success path
- TestImportConfigRollbackOnFailure - Confirms rollback on mid-import failure
- TestImportAcceptsVersion40Bundle - Ensures backward compatibility with v4.0
All tests passing ✅
## Migration Notes
- No manual migration required
- Users can re-export to generate v4.1 bundles with API tokens
- Existing 4.0 bundles remain valid for import
- Recommended: Re-run export after upgrade to ensure API tokens are captured

Complete the API token export/import feature with proper version
handling and backward compatibility:
- Bump export format to version 4.1 to indicate API token support
- Import API tokens when loading v4.1 exports
- Handle version compatibility gracefully:
- v4.1: Full support including API tokens
- v4.0: Notice that tokens weren't included (backward compatible)
- Other: Warning but best-effort import
- Initialize empty array instead of nil for cleaner JSON
This ensures API tokens are properly preserved when migrating or
restoring Pulse instances while maintaining backward compatibility
with older exports.
Enhance request ID middleware to support distributed tracing:
- Honor incoming X-Request-ID headers from upstream proxies/load balancers
- Use logging.WithRequestID() for consistent ID generation across codebase
- Return X-Request-ID in response headers for client correlation
- Include request_id in panic recovery logs for debugging
This enables better request tracing across multiple Pulse instances
and integrates with standard distributed tracing practices.
