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.
Add API tokens to the export data so they are included when
exporting/backing up configuration. This ensures API tokens are
preserved when migrating or restoring Pulse instances.
Changes:
- Add APITokens field to ExportData struct
- Load API tokens during export process
- Include tokens in exported JSON (omitempty if none exist)
Document the pulse-sensor-proxy rate limiting bug fix and new
configurability across all relevant documentation:
TEMPERATURE_MONITORING.md:
- Added 'Rate Limiting & Scaling' section with symptom diagnosis
- Included sizing table for 1-3, 4-10, 10-20, and 30+ node deployments
- Provided tuning formula: interval_ms = polling_interval / node_count
TROUBLESHOOTING.md:
- Added 'Temperature data flickers after adding nodes' section
- Step-by-step diagnosis using limiter metrics and scheduler health
- Quick fix with config example
CONFIGURATION.md:
- Added pulse-sensor-proxy/config.yaml reference section
- Documented rate_limit.per_peer_interval_ms and per_peer_burst fields
- Included defaults and example override
pulse-sensor-proxy-runbook.md:
- Updated quick reference with new defaults (1 req/sec, burst 5)
- Added 'Rate Limit Tuning' procedure with 4 deployment profiles
- Included validation steps and monitoring commands
TEMPERATURE_MONITORING_SECURITY.md:
- Updated rate limiting section with new defaults
- Added configurable overrides guidance
- Documented security considerations for production deployments
Related commits:
- 46b8b8d08: Initial rate limit fix (hardcoded defaults)
- ca534e2b6: Made rate limits configurable via YAML
- e244da837: Added guidance for large deployments (30+ nodes)
Update config.example.yaml with:
- Recommendations for very large deployments (30+ nodes)
- Formula for calculating optimal rate limits based on node count
- Example calculation: 30 nodes with 10s polling = 300ms interval
- Security note about minimum safe intervals
This helps admins properly configure the proxy for enterprise
deployments with dozens of nodes.
Add support for configuring rate limits via config.yaml to allow
administrators to tune the proxy for different deployment sizes.
Changes:
- Add RateLimitConfig struct to config.go with per_peer_interval_ms and per_peer_burst
- Update newRateLimiter() to accept optional RateLimitConfig parameter
- Load rate limit config from YAML and apply overrides to defaults
- Update tests to pass nil for default behavior
- Add comprehensive config.example.yaml with documentation
Configuration examples:
- Small (1-3 nodes): 1000ms interval, burst 5 (default)
- Medium (4-10 nodes): 500ms interval, burst 10
- Large (10+ nodes): 250ms interval, burst 20
Defaults remain conservative (1 req/sec, burst 5) to support most
deployments while allowing customization for larger environments.
Related: #46b8b8d08 (rate limit fix for multi-node support)
- Increase rate limit from 1 req/5sec to 1 req/sec (60/min)
- Increase burst from 2 to 5 requests
- Fixes temperature collection failures when monitoring 3+ nodes
- All requests from containerized Pulse use same UID, causing rate limiting
- New limits support 5-10 node deployments comfortably
Resolves issue where adding standalone nodes broke temperature monitoring
for all nodes due to aggressive rate limiting.
Replace harsh/technical language with clearer, more positive messaging:
BEFORE → AFTER:
- "No alert violations detected during observation yet" → "All systems healthy — no alerts triggered"
- "Monitoring is live; notifications will start after..." → "Monitoring is active. Review your settings..."
- "24h observation ending" → "24-hour setup period ending soon"
- "Review alerts before activating" → "Ready to activate notifications"
- "breached thresholds" → "triggered"
- "violations" → "alerts"
Key improvements:
- Removed jargon: "observation window", "during observation"
- Removed ominous language: "yet", harsh "violations"
- More conversational: "You'll receive" vs "will dispatch to configured destinations"
- Positive framing: "All systems healthy" vs absence-focused language
- Clearer actions: "turning on alerts" vs "enabling notifications"
- Enthusiastic success messages: "Notifications activated!" with exclamation
Affected components:
- ActivationBanner.tsx: 4 text improvements
- ActivationModal.tsx: 5 text improvements
Impact: Better first-run UX, less intimidating language, clearer call-to-action
Implement 5 medium/low priority improvements identified in systematic review:
UX IMPROVEMENTS:
- Notify existing critical alerts when activating from pending_review state
Previously: critical alerts during observation window would never notify
Now: users receive notifications for active critical alerts after activation
Implementation: Added NotifyExistingAlert() method and logic in ActivateAlerts()
PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATIONS:
- Replace per-alert cleanup goroutines with periodic batch cleanup
Prevents spawning 1000s of goroutines during alert flapping
recentlyResolved entries now cleaned up once per minute instead of 1 goroutine per alert
- Simplify GetActiveAlerts() implementation
Removed intermediate map copy, holds lock slightly longer but operation is fast
Cleaner code with reduced memory allocation
CONFIGURATION VALIDATION:
- Validate timezone in quiet hours configuration
Invalid timezones now disable quiet hours with error log instead of silent fallback
Prevents unexpected behavior when timezone is typo'd or invalid
GRACEFUL SHUTDOWN:
- Add 100ms delay in Stop() for background goroutine cleanup
Reduces risk of state corruption during shutdown
Allows escalation checker and periodic save to exit cleanly
Technical details:
- internal/alerts/alerts.go: Added NotifyExistingAlert(), optimized cleanup patterns
- internal/api/alerts.go: Enhanced ActivateAlerts() to notify existing critical alerts
- Removed ~20 lines of goroutine spawning code
- Added periodic cleanup for recentlyResolved map
- All changes preserve backward compatibility
Testing: Verified compilation with 'go build -o /dev/null ./...'
Fix 5 critical bugs identified through systematic code review:
CRITICAL FIXES (prevent service crashes):
- Add panic recovery to all alert callbacks (onAlert, onResolved, onEscalate)
- Clone alerts before passing to escalation callback to prevent data races
- Make clearAlertNoLock callback async to prevent deadlock
HIGH PRIORITY FIXES (prevent memory leaks):
- Add cleanup for stale pendingAlerts entries (deleted resources)
- Add cleanup for dockerRestartTracking (ephemeral containers in CI/CD)
MEDIUM PRIORITY FIXES (prevent stuck alerts):
- Validate hysteresis thresholds (ensure clear < trigger)
- Auto-fix invalid configurations with warning logs
Impact:
- Service stability: Malformed webhook URLs or email configs can no longer crash Pulse
- Memory management: Prevents unbounded growth in dynamic environments
- Alert reliability: Prevents alerts that never clear due to invalid thresholds
- Concurrency safety: Eliminates data races in escalation path
Technical details:
- Created safeCallResolvedCallback() and safeCallEscalateCallback() wrappers
- Added ensureValidHysteresis() validation helper
- Extended Cleanup() with pendingAlerts and dockerRestartTracking pruning
- All callbacks now have defer/recover panic handlers with detailed logging
Testing: Verified compilation with 'go build -o /dev/null ./...'
The previous diagrams were too complex and overwhelming. Simplified
all diagrams to show core concepts clearly:
- Adaptive polling: reduced to basic scheduler→queue→workers flow
- Temperature proxy: simplified to 3-box trust boundary view
- Sensor proxy sequence: simplified to essential request flow
- Webhook pipeline: reduced to template→send→retry flow
- Script library: simplified to code→test→bundle→dist flow
Fixed parsing error in temperature proxy diagram (parentheses in
edge label causing render failure).
Diagrams should clarify architecture, not recreate implementation.
The v2 installer rollout is complete - dist/install-docker-agent.sh
now contains the bundled v2 installer with embedded library modules.
This planning document served its purpose and is no longer relevant.
Replace internal development phase reference with clear description
of what the adaptive polling scheduler does. 'Phase 2' is internal
jargon that provides no value to users.
Source builds use commit hashes (main-c147fa1) not semantic versions
(v4.23.0), so update checks would always fail or show misleading
"Update Available" banners.
Changes:
- Add IsSourceBuild flag to VersionInfo struct
- Detect source builds via BUILD_FROM_SOURCE marker file
- Skip update check for source builds (like Docker)
- Update frontend to show "Built from source" message
- Disable manual update check button for source builds
- Return "source" deployment type for source builds
Backend:
- internal/updates/version.go: Add isSourceBuildEnvironment() detection
- internal/updates/manager.go: Skip check with appropriate message
- internal/api/types.go: Add isSourceBuild to API response
- internal/api/router.go: Include isSourceBuild in version endpoint
Frontend:
- src/api/updates.ts: Add isSourceBuild to VersionInfo type
- src/stores/updates.ts: Don't poll for updates on source builds
- src/components/Settings/Settings.tsx: Show "Built from source" message
Fixes the confusing "Update Available" banner for users who explicitly
chose --source to get latest main branch code.

Source builds use commit hashes (0.0.0-main-44ef8b6) not semantic
versions (v4.23.0), so auto-updates don't make sense. The auto-updater
would download release binaries, replacing the user's source build.
Changes:
- Skip auto-update question when BUILD_FROM_SOURCE=true
- Show informational message instead
- Applies to both Quick and Advanced modes
This prevents confusion when users explicitly choose --source to get
the latest main branch code instead of stable releases.
When installing temperature monitoring for a new container, stop any
existing pulse-sensor-proxy service before trying to overwrite the
binary. This prevents 'Text file busy' errors when the binary is
currently running.
Fixes the error that occurred when installing container 103 while
container 107's proxy was still running.
The prompt now says 'Enable temperature monitoring from first boot'
instead of 'Restart the container to activate' since we moved the
question to before container creation.
Also clarified 'Configure container with temperature monitoring bind mount'
to better reflect what actually happens.
Major improvements to the install script based on comprehensive review:
## 1. Temperature Monitoring - No Restart Required ✨
- Ask about temperature monitoring BEFORE container creation (not after)
- Add bind mount during `pct create` instead of requiring restart later
- Quick mode defaults to "yes", Advanced mode asks user
- Host path: /run/pulse-sensor-proxy → /mnt/pulse-proxy in container
- Support --skip-restart flag in install-sensor-proxy.sh
- Eliminates disruptive container restart on fresh installs
## 2. Shell Injection Prevention 🔒
- Replace `eval pct create` with array-based command building
- Prevents quoting bugs with special characters in hostnames/nameservers
- Safer handling of user input in container creation
## 3. Non-Interactive Install Support 🤖
- Replace bare `read` with `safe_read_with_default` in prompts
- Prevents hangs when running `curl | bash` non-interactively
- Proper fallback to sensible defaults
## 4. Cleanup on Interrupt 🧹
- Track container ID globally during creation
- Properly cleanup orphaned containers on Ctrl+C/SIGTERM
- New handle_install_interrupt() function
- Prevents leftover containers after cancelled installs
## 5. Air-Gapped Network Support 🌐
- Replace 8.8.8.8 ping check with `hostname -I` IP detection
- Supports restricted/firewalled networks where external ping fails
- More reliable for DHCP-only environments
Changes:
- install.sh: Refactor temperature prompt timing and mount setup
- install.sh: Convert pct create to array-based args (lines 1018-1055)
- install.sh: Add handle_install_interrupt trap (lines 38-48)
- install.sh: Replace ping check with IP detection (line 1082)
- scripts/install-sensor-proxy.sh: Add --skip-restart flag support
- scripts/install-sensor-proxy.sh: Improve mount detection and updates
Impact:
- Fresh installs now complete without any container restarts
- Temperature monitoring works immediately after first boot
- Safer and more robust for automation/CI scenarios
- Better experience on restricted networks
Co-authored-by: Codex AI
- Remove confusing --main flag, use --source for clarity

- Support PULSE_CONTAINER_TIMEOUT=0 to disable timeout
- Fix misleading "Latest version: vX.X.X" message during source builds
- Update documentation to use --source instead of --main
- Simplify auto-update script logic for source builds
Changes:
- install.sh: Check BUILD_FROM_SOURCE early to skip version detection
- install.sh: Adaptive timeout (300s binary, 1200s source builds)
- install.sh: Better timeout error messages with recovery instructions
- README.md: Replace --main with --source in examples
- docs/INSTALL.md: Replace --main with --source in examples
- scripts/pulse-auto-update.sh: Remove --main special case
Significantly enhanced network discovery feature to eliminate false positives,
provide real-time progress updates, and better error reporting.
Key improvements:
- Require positive Proxmox identification (version data, auth headers, or certificates)
instead of reporting any service on ports 8006/8007
- Add real-time progress tracking with phase/target counts and completion percentage
- Implement structured error reporting with IP, phase, type, and timestamp details
- Fix TLS timeout handling to prevent hangs on unresponsive hosts
- Expose progress and structured errors via WebSocket for UI consumption
- Reduce log verbosity by moving discovery logs to debug level
- Fix duplicate IP counting to ensure progress reaches 100%
Breaking changes: None (backward compatible with legacy API methods)
The installer was configuring pulse-backend.service.d but the actual
service is pulse.service, so the PULSE_SENSOR_PROXY_SOCKET environment
variable wasn't being set.
Changed: pulse-backend.service → pulse.service
This ensures Pulse actually uses the proxy socket for temperature
monitoring instead of attempting SSH connections.
Added containerized and containerId fields to /api/version endpoint
to enable automatic temperature proxy installation for LXC containers.
Changes:
- Added Containerized bool field to VersionResponse
- Added ContainerId string field to VersionResponse
- Detect containerization by checking /run/systemd/container file
- Extract container ID from hostname for LXC containers
- Set deployment type from container type (lxc/docker)
This allows the PVE setup script to:
1. Detect that Pulse is running in a container
2. Find the container ID by matching IPs
3. Automatically install pulse-sensor-proxy on the host
4. Configure bind mount for secure socket communication
Fixes the issue where setup script showed 'Proxy not available'
even when Pulse was containerized.
Critical bug fix: The setup script's format string had 33 placeholders
but was only receiving 27 arguments, causing:
- INSTALLER_URL to receive authToken instead of pulseURL
- This made curl try to resolve the token value as a hostname
- Error: 'curl: (6) Could not resolve host: N7AE3P'
- Token ID showed '%!s(MISSING)' in manual setup instructions
Fixed by:
- Added missing tokenName at position 7
- Added literal '%s' strings for version_ge printf placeholders
- Added authToken arguments for Authorization headers (positions 29, 31)
- Ensured all 33 format placeholders have corresponding arguments
Now generates correct URLs:
- INSTALLER_URL: http://192.168.0.160:7655/api/install/install-sensor-proxy.sh
- --pulse-server: http://192.168.0.160:7655
- Token ID: pulse-monitor@pam!pulse-192-168-0-160-[timestamp]
Changed curl flags from -fsSL to -fSL to enable error output.
The -s flag was silencing all curl errors including SSL/TLS issues,
making it impossible to diagnose download failures.
With -S (show errors), stderr now captures meaningful error messages
like certificate problems, connection failures, etc.
- Back up container config before making mount modifications
- Restore original config if socket verification fails
- Clean up backup file on success or when verification is skipped
- Leave host-level resources (user, binary, service) in place for idempotency
This ensures failed installations don't leave containers in an
inconsistent state while keeping successfully installed host services
for faster re-runs.
Setup script improvements (config_handlers.go):
- Remove redundant mount configuration and container restart logic
- Let installer handle all mount/restart operations (single source of truth)
- Eliminate hard-coded mp0 assumption
Installer improvements (install-sensor-proxy.sh):
- Add mount configuration persistence validation via pct config check
- Surface pct set errors instead of silencing with 2>/dev/null
- Capture and display curl download errors with temp files
- Check systemd daemon-reload/enable/restart exit codes
- Show journalctl output when service fails to start
- Make socket verification fatal (was warning)
- Provide clear manual steps when hot-plug fails on running container
This makes the installation fail fast with actionable error messages
instead of silently proceeding with broken configuration.
Changes:
- Replace PULSE_SENSOR_PROXY_FALLBACK_URL env export with --pulse-server argument
- Remove --quiet flag from installer invocation to show download progress
- More reliable than environment variable inheritance in subshells
This ensures the proxy installer can reliably download the binary from the
Pulse server fallback when GitHub is unavailable.
The setup script was filtering installer output to only show lines with
✓|⚠️|ERROR, which hid successful download messages like:
'Downloading pulse-sensor-proxy-linux-amd64 from Pulse server...'
This made it appear the installer failed even when the Pulse server
fallback download succeeded. Changed to show all installer output for
better visibility and debugging.
Users will now see the complete installation flow including:
- GitHub download attempt (expected to fail for dev builds)
- Pulse server fallback download (should succeed)
- All setup steps and validations
Improves transparency and reduces confusion during setup
Version check was blocking dev/main builds (e.g., '0.0.0-main-da9da6f')
from using temperature proxy, even though they have the latest code.
Added regex to skip version check for builds matching:
- ^0\.0\.0-main (main branch builds)
- ^dev (dev builds)
- ^main (main version strings)
These builds are assumed to have proxy support since they're built from
the latest codebase.
Fixes testing workflow when installing Pulse with --main flag
The version check was blocking ALL v4.23.0 users from temperature monitoring,
even non-containerized ones who don't need the proxy.
Changed to only check version when PULSE_IS_CONTAINERIZED=true, since:
- Non-containerized Pulse can use direct SSH on any version
- Containerized Pulse requires v4.24.0+ for proxy support
This ensures non-containerized v4.23.0 users can still use temperature monitoring
via direct SSH while properly blocking proxy setup for containerized v4.23.0.
Fixes regression introduced in commit fbe4ab83a
Improves configuration handling and system settings APIs to support
v4.24.0 features including runtime logging controls, adaptive polling
configuration, and enhanced config export/persistence.
Changes:
- Add config override system for discovery service
- Enhance system settings API with runtime logging controls
- Improve config persistence and export functionality
- Update security setup handling
- Refine monitoring and discovery service integration
These changes provide the backend support for the configuration
features documented in the v4.24.0 release.
Resolves two remaining TODOs from codebase audit.
## 1. PBS/PMG Test Harness Stubs
**Location:** internal/monitoring/harness_integration.go:149-151
**Changes:**
- Added PBS client stub registration: `monitor.pbsClients[inst.Name] = &pbs.Client{}`
- Added PMG client stub registration: `monitor.pmgClients[inst.Name] = &pmg.Client{}`
- Added imports for pkg/pbs and pkg/pmg
**Purpose:**
Enables integration test scenarios to include PBS and PMG instance types
alongside existing PVE support. Stubs allow scheduler to register and
execute tasks for these instance types during integration testing.
**Testing:**
✅ TestAdaptiveSchedulerIntegration passes (55.5s)
✅ Integration test harness now supports all three instance types
## 2. HTTP Config URL Fetch
**Location:** cmd/pulse/config.go:226-261
**Problem:**
`PULSE_INIT_CONFIG_URL` was recognized but not implemented, returning
"URL import not yet implemented" error.
**Implementation:**
- URL validation (http/https schemes only)
- HTTP client with 15 second timeout
- Status code validation (2xx required)
- Empty response detection
- Base64 decoding with fallback to raw data
- Matches existing env-var behavior for `PULSE_INIT_CONFIG_DATA`
**Security:**
- Both HTTP and HTTPS supported (HTTPS recommended for production)
- URL scheme validation prevents file:// or other protocols
- Timeout prevents hanging on unresponsive servers
**Usage:**
```bash
export PULSE_INIT_CONFIG_URL="https://config-server/encrypted-config"
export PULSE_INIT_CONFIG_PASSPHRASE="secret"
pulse config auto-import
```
**Testing:**
✅ Code compiles cleanly
✅ Follows same pattern as existing PULSE_INIT_CONFIG_DATA handling
## Impact
- Completes integration test infrastructure for all instance types
- Enables automated config distribution via HTTP(S) for container deployments
- Removes last TODOs from codebase (no TODO/FIXME remaining in Go files)
Fixes panic: assignment to entry in nil map in PMG polling tests.
**Problem:**
Tests were manually creating Monitor structs without initializing internal
maps like pollStatusMap, causing nil map panics when recordTaskResult()
tried to update task status.
**Root Cause:**
- TestPollPMGInstancePopulatesState (line 90)
- TestPollPMGInstanceRecordsAuthFailures (line 189)
Both created Monitor with only partial field initialization, missing:
- pollStatusMap
- dlqInsightMap
- instanceInfoCache
- Other internal state maps
**Solution:**
Changed both tests to use New() constructor which properly initializes all
maps and internal state (monitor.go:1541). This ensures tests match production
initialization and will automatically pick up any future map additions.
**Tests:**
✅ TestPollPMGInstancePopulatesState - now passes
✅ TestPollPMGInstanceRecordsAuthFailures - now passes
✅ All monitoring tests pass (0.125s)
Follows best practice: use constructors instead of manual struct creation
to maintain initialization invariants.
Implement complete rollback functionality for systemd/LXC deployments:
**Rollback Strategy:**
- Downloads old binary from GitHub releases
- Restores config from timestamped backups
- Service detection (pulse/pulse-backend/pulse-hot-dev)
- Comprehensive health verification
**Implementation:**
Main rollback flow:
1. Create rollback history entry
2. Detect active service name
3. Download old binary version from GitHub
4. Stop Pulse service
5. Create safety backup of current config
6. Restore config from backup directory
7. Install old binary
8. Start service
9. Wait for health check (30s timeout)
10. Update rollback history (success/failure)
**Helper Functions:**
- detectServiceName(): Auto-detect active service from candidates
- downloadBinary(): Download specific version from GitHub releases
- Auto-detects architecture (amd64/arm64)
- Validates download success
- Sets executable permissions
- stopService/startService(): Systemctl service management
- restoreConfig(): Atomic config restoration
- installBinary(): Safe binary installation with backup
- waitForHealth(): Retry health endpoint with timeout
**Safety Features:**
- Safety backup before restore (rollback-safety timestamp)
- Pre-rollback binary backup (.pre-rollback)
- Health check verification post-rollback
- Comprehensive error logging
- History tracking for audit
**Limitations:**
- Binary backup deleted by install.sh (downloads from GitHub)
- Network dependency for binary retrieval
- Config-only backups from current install.sh
**Testing:**
- Compiles cleanly
- Ready for unit/integration tests
Closes Phase 1 technical debt - rollback capability now functional.
Part of Phase 1 Security Hardening follow-up work
Add detailed API reference and update rollout playbook:
**New: docs/api/SCHEDULER_HEALTH.md**
- Complete endpoint reference for /api/monitoring/scheduler/health
- Request/response structure with field descriptions
- Enhanced "instances" array documentation
- Example responses showing all states (healthy, transient, DLQ)
- Useful jq queries for troubleshooting:
- Find instances with errors
- List DLQ entries
- Show open circuit breakers
- Sort by failure streaks
- Migration guide (legacy → new fields)
- Troubleshooting examples with real scenarios
**Updated: docs/operations/ADAPTIVE_POLLING_ROLLOUT.md**
- Enhanced "Accessing Scheduler Health API" section (§6)
- Added examples using new instances[] array
- Updated queries to use pollStatus, breaker, deadLetter fields
- Practical jq commands for operators
**Key Documentation Features:**
- Complete JSON schema with examples
- All new fields documented with types and descriptions
- Real-world troubleshooting scenarios
- Copy-paste ready jq queries
- Migration path for existing integrations
- Backward compatibility notes
Operators can now:
- Find error messages without log digging
- Understand circuit breaker states
- Track DLQ entries with full context
- Diagnose issues using single API call
Part of Phase 2 follow-up - enhanced observability
Add comprehensive instance-level diagnostics to /api/monitoring/scheduler/health
**New Response Structure:**
Enhanced "instances" array with per-instance details:
- Instance metadata: displayName, type, connection URL
- Poll status: last success/error timestamps, error messages, error category
- Circuit breaker: state, timestamps, failure counts, retry windows
- Dead letter: present flag, reason, attempt history, retry schedule
**Implementation:**
Data structures:
- instanceInfo: cache of display names, URLs, types
- pollStatus: tracks successes/errors with timestamps and categories
- dlqInsight: DLQ entry metadata (reason, attempts, schedule)
- circuitBreaker: enhanced with stateSince, lastTransition
Tracking logic:
- buildInstanceInfoCache: populate metadata from config on startup
- recordTaskResult: track poll outcomes, error details, categories
- sendToDeadLetter: capture DLQ insights (reason, timestamps)
- circuitBreaker: record state transitions with timestamps
**Backward Compatible:**
- Existing fields (deadLetter, breakers, staleness) unchanged
- New "instances" array is additive
- Old clients can ignore new fields
**Testing:**
- Unit test: TestSchedulerHealth_EnhancedResponse validates all fields
- Integration tests: still passing (55s)
- All error tracking and breaker history verified
**Operator Benefits:**
- Diagnose issues without log digging
- See error messages directly in API
- Understand breaker states and retry schedules
- Track DLQ entries with full context
- Single API call for complete instance health view
Example: Quickly identify "401 unauthorized" on specific PBS instance,
see it's in DLQ after 5 retries, and know when next retry scheduled.
Part of Phase 2 follow-up work to improve observability.
Document decision to defer mutation endpoints after soak testing:
**Assessment Results:**
- Integration tests (55s, 12 instances): Automatic recovery worked perfectly
- Soak tests (2-240min, 80 instances): No manual intervention needed
- Circuit breakers: Opened/closed automatically as designed
- DLQ routing: Permanent failures handled correctly
**Current Capabilities (Sufficient):**
- Read-only scheduler health API provides full visibility
- Operator workarounds: service restart, feature flag toggle
- Grafana alerting: queue depth, staleness, DLQ, breakers
**Why Defer:**
- No operational need demonstrated in testing
- Implementation requires auth/RBAC/audit/UI work
- Cost not justified until production usage reveals need
- Can add later when data shows actual pain points
**Future Design Notes:**
- POST /api/monitoring/breakers/{instance}/reset
- POST /api/monitoring/dlq/retry (all or specific)
- DELETE /api/monitoring/dlq/{instance}
- Auth, audit, rate limiting, UI integration required
**Re-evaluation Criteria:**
- Operators request controls >3x in 30 days
- Troubleshooting steps inadequate
- Service restarts too disruptive
- Production incidents need surgical controls
Decision: Monitor production usage for 60 days, then reassess based on actual operator feedback and support ticket patterns.
Part of Phase 2 - Adaptive Polling completion
Removed all legacy Pulse+ agent metrics infrastructure (cloud-relay) which has been
fully replaced by the new docker agent and temperature agent implementations.
Changes:
- Remove cloud-relay directory and all related binaries (relay, relay-linux, etc.)
- Remove Pulse+ documentation (AGENT_METRICS_IMPLEMENTATION.md, AGENT_METRICS_SETUP.md)
- Clean up pulse-relay references in workflows and release checklist
- Add audit log rotation documentation for sensor proxy hash-chained logs
- Update .gitignore to remove cloud-relay/ entry
The new docker and temp agents remain fully functional and unaffected by this cleanup.
Implements structured logging package with LOG_LEVEL/LOG_FORMAT env support, debug level guards for hot paths, enriched error messages with actionable context, and stack trace capture for production debugging. Improves observability and reduces log overhead in high-frequency polling loops.
Removed PHASE1_SUMMARY.md and PHASE2_SUMMARY.md as both phases are complete.
All relevant documentation has been integrated into the main docs:
- Security hardening docs in SECURITY.md
- Adaptive polling architecture in docs/monitoring/ADAPTIVE_POLLING.md
Updated PHASE2_SUMMARY.md to include:
- ✅ Task 8: Scheduler health API endpoint completion
- ✅ Task 9: Unit testing completion (40+ test cases)
- Updated git commit history (9 commits total)
- Revised known limitations (removed API/testing gaps)
- Updated future work section
Phase 2 achievements:
- 9/10 tasks complete (only integration/soak tests deferred)
- 40+ unit tests covering backoff, circuit breakers, staleness
- Full scheduler health API with authentication
- Comprehensive documentation and rollout plan
- Production-ready with feature flag control
Remaining work (deferred to future):
- Integration tests with mock PVE/PBS clients
- Soak tests for extended queue stability
- Write endpoints for circuit breaker/DLQ management
