The review asked for a regression test pinning DTD-prohibited parsing. Writing
it showed the premise was wrong: XDocument.Parse permits an internal DTD subset
and expands its entities, so a DOCTYPE-bearing response body parsed fine and the
guard did not exist (entity-expansion DoS on external input).
Parse now goes through XmlReader with DtdProcessing.Prohibit and a null
XmlResolver. The regression test feeds a DOCTYPE + ENTITY payload shaped as a
well-formed EWS error response, so it fails if DtdProcessing is ever loosened
rather than passing for the unrelated-XML reason.
Root cause: dotnet runs as container PID 1 and Linux ignores default-action
signals sent to PID 1, so the runtime's unhandled-exception path (banner,
then abort() -> SIGABRT) could never terminate the process — it printed the
trace and spun the main thread at 100% CPU with the container `running`,
so `restart: unless-stopped` never fired. Reproduced deterministically:
same StartupValidator throw exits 134 under an init process and wedges
without one.
Two layers, each covering the other's gap:
- Program.cs registers an AppDomain.UnhandledException handler before the
first statement that can throw: prints the trace, best-effort flushes
Serilog, Environment.Exit(134) — exit() is a syscall PID 1 CAN perform,
134 preserves the 128+SIGABRT crash code, and it covers every thread,
not just the boot window. It cannot fire under WebApplicationFactory
(the test host catches entry-point exceptions), so the designed
boot-refusal exceptions still propagate to tests unchanged.
- docker-compose: init: true on all 8 nodes for the crash paths that
bypass the managed event (Environment.FailFast, runtime-internal aborts).
The CoordinatedShutdown no-Environment.Exit guard gains a precise carve-out
(exactly one call, only inside the handler); Environment.Exit still fires
the CLR shutdown hook Akka binds via run-by-clr-shutdown-hook = on, so the
crash path skips nothing abort() kept. New pin test keeps the handler ahead
of the configuration build.
Live-verified on the rig image: crash now yields Exited (134) +
RestartCount climbing under `unless-stopped`, trace intact, with and
without init; full 8-node rig redeployed healthy with docker-init as PID 1.
Closes#34.

Pin all five ZB.MOM.WW.Secrets* packages 0.4.1 -> 0.5.0, which brings
SecretsGrpcHubClientOptions.FallbackEndpoints and the package's internal
FailoverSecretsHubReader. A site whose GrpcHub section lists fallback
endpoints now fails a sweep over to the next central instead of stalling
on a downed primary - safe ONLY because both central nodes serve one
shared SQL secret store (scadaproj#4), so either hub answers with the
same manifest; the appsettings comments say so and warn against listing
endpoints backed by independent stores.
appsettings.json gains "FallbackEndpoints": [] with a _fallbackEndpoints
comment, and the _endpoint note's single-endpoint-stall caveat is scoped
to the empty-list case it now only applies to.
Wiring pins (red first on 0.4.1): site + Grpc + one fallback resolves
ISecretsHubReader to FailoverSecretsHubReader with the
"zb-secrets-grpc-hub:fallback:0" keyed channel present; zero fallbacks
keeps the plain GrpcSecretsHubClient and no fallback channel - the
pre-0.5.0 container shape byte-identical.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014WNM4vjoVksyyBraTXSZE1
The expander comment now records that a SQL outage at central boot exits
pre-Serilog with a bare stderr trace (honest, restart-retryable, unenriched)
and why the role-reading predicate deliberately stays in Program.cs rather
than SecretsRegistration (that class refuses config-read roles by design).
EnsureCentralSharedStoreConnectionString gains the file's standard
ThrowIfNull. The site-purity scan's doc no longer overclaims: two
factory-lambda descriptors evade it individually; the pin holds because
three concrete-type registrations from the same call cannot.

In Secrets:Replication:Mode=Grpc a central node's ISecretStore is now the
shared SQL-Server store (AddZbSecretsSqlServerStore) instead of a per-node
local SQLite store. Both central hubs read and write ONE copy of every row,
so they serve identical manifests by construction — the 2026-08-07 live gate
observed central-b answering an authenticated GetManifest with an EMPTY
manifest while central-a held every secret, which would turn site-side hub
failover into a silent convergence stop.
- SecretsRegistration: two fail-closed pre-checks before any registration on
the central+Grpc path — a blank Secrets:SqlServer:ConnectionString throws
naming the key (an independent store per central node is the recorded
defect), and a value containing ${secret: throws naming the bootstrap
circularity (the expander needs this store to resolve references). Site
registrations are byte-identical to before; SqlServer mode and
replication-off are untouched.
- Program.cs Layer-A expander follows the store swap: central+Grpc with a
non-blank connection string migrates and resolves pre-host ${secret:}
references through the shared SQL store, so expanded values can never
diverge from what the running node serves. Every other case keeps the
SQLite path unchanged; blank-connstr central deliberately falls through so
the clear AddScadaBridgeSecrets message is the one that fails the boot.
- appsettings.json: Secrets:SqlServer _comment now documents the Grpc-mode
central requirement (literal/env value only, sites leave it empty).
- SecretsReplicationWiringTests: +5 pins (shared store resolves, blank and
${secret:} connstrings fail naming the key, sites-have-no-SqlServer-types
descriptor sweep), central fixtures carry the now-required connstr.
Full suite green (7,474 passed across 30 projects, 0 warnings); the two
failures are pre-existing and unrelated: the Playwright live-rig suite fails
identically on unmodified main (cluster not running), and
GrpcCentralTransportTests.DeadlineExceeded_IsNotRetriedOnThePeer is a timing
flake that passes 3/3 in isolation and 470/470 on the first run of this code.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014WNM4vjoVksyyBraTXSZE1
Extends the existing build-and-resolve wiring suite rather than asserting over
ServiceDescriptors, for the reason that file already documents: a registration
can look correct as a descriptor list and still fail on first resolve.
Role separation is pinned in both directions — central registers the hub's
fail-closed interceptor and NOT the sweep, a site registers the sweep and NOT
the hub — because only one of those is a security failure and testing the
happy half would not catch it. The sweep is asserted by resolving IHostedService,
which builds its whole graph (reader, keyed channel, local store) and is where
a forgotten AddZbSecrets would surface; GrpcSecretSyncService is internal to
the package, so it is matched by assembly + type name the way the SqlServer
replicator's services already are.
SqlServer mode gets regression pins with the mode key both unset and named
explicitly, plus one asserting it stays role-agnostic — both nodes sync
bidirectionally against the same database, and the role parameter added for the
hub must not have quietly changed that.
The mapping tests assert over the app's real endpoint data sources, on the WIRE
route (/zb.mom.ww.secrets.hub.v1.SecretsHub/...) rather than the C# type, since
the route is what a follower addresses. One of them pins exactly the two READ
methods: pull-only is a property of the contract, and this is where a future
package version growing a write RPC would become visible instead of silently
opening a path for a site to overwrite central.
Numeric mode values get their own test. Enum.TryParse accepts any integer,
including ones outside the enum, so "7" would otherwise select a mode that does
not exist and fall through to the SqlServer branch.
Verified red-first by mutation on the finished implementation: swapping the two
role branches reds 8 (both role pins, both fail-closed pins, both mapping
pins); deleting the UsesGrpcHub check in the map extension reds exactly the two
"maps no hub endpoint" cases — the unauthenticated-hub scenario; dropping
Enum.IsDefined and letting UsesGrpcHub ignore Enabled reds the out-of-range
value and the flag-off-with-full-hub-config cases. 31/31 green restored.

SiteLocalDbLegacyMigrator opens each pre-Phase-2 file read-only, copies its rows into
the consolidated site database, then renames the file so a later boot skips it.
Microsoft.Data.Sqlite POOLS connections, so disposing one returns it to the pool and
leaves the underlying sqlite3 handle - and the OS file handle - open. On Windows the
subsequent File.Move throws IOException ("being used by another process"), the
migration faults out of AddZbLocalDb's factory, and the site node does not start at
all. There is no partial-migration path: it is a hard boot failure, once, on the first
upgrade past LocalDb Phase 2.
Why it shipped: POSIX rename ignores open handles, so this cannot reproduce on Linux or
macOS. Every existing rename assertion in SiteLocalDbLegacyMigratorTests - including
LegacyTrackingRows_AreCopiedAndTheFileIsRenamed - passes with the bug fully present, and
the docker rig migrates cleanly. It was found by pre-flighting the wonder-app-vd03
upgrade against COPIES of that box's real site databases; an earlier pre-flight pass
with empty data directories had nothing to drain and passed clean.
Fix: both legacy read-only connection strings now go through one
LegacyReadOnlyConnectionString helper carrying Pooling=False.
The accompanying test is deliberately white-box. A behavioural assertion cannot
discriminate here on the platform this suite runs on, so it pins the connection string
instead; it is red without the fix.
Verified: Host.Tests 440/440, 0 warnings. The build deployed to wonder-app-vd03 carries
this change (as the then-uncommitted fix) and has been running since 2026-08-05.
MES alarm-status API §5.2 (docs/plans/2026-06-30-mes-alarm-status-api.md,
Phase 1 tasks 2-4). Site `Call` scripts had NO way to read alarm condition
state: the `Alarm` global exists only inside an on-trigger handler and
describes the one alarm that fired, and native mirrored conditions were
reachable only from the Debug View. That gap blocked the CvdReactor
SimpleAlarmStatus/AlarmStatus scripts entirely -- they cannot be written
without it. `Alarms.CurrentAsync()` closes it.
The data was already local: the script runs inside its own Instance Actor's
context, so this is a LOCAL Ask -- the same mechanism attribute reads use, no
cross-cluster hop. A dedicated GetAlarmSnapshotRequest/Response is used rather
than reusing DebugSnapshotRequest, which would materialise every attribute
value on every alarm poll; both are served from the same
BuildAlarmStatesSnapshot(), so the script view and the operator's Debug View
can never disagree.
Deliberate shape decisions:
- NOT scope-prefixed, unlike Attributes. Alarm identity is not a
scope-relative attribute name (computed alarms are keyed by configured
name, native conditions by a source-supplied reference), so prefixing
would hand a composed script a silently truncated list.
- Read-only. Native alarms are a read-only mirror of the source (no
ack-back), so no acknowledge/shelve operation is exposed.
- Placeholder rows are NOT pre-filtered: a caller must be able to tell
"binding configured and quiet" from "binding unknown". The documented
filter is `Active && !IsConfiguredPlaceholder`.
- ScriptAlarm lives in Commons so the runtime accessor and the compile-only
surface project to the SAME type -- a script binding at the design-time
gate binds identically at the site. Condition is the authority for
active/acked/severity, so one filter expression works across computed and
native alarms.
Mirrored on BOTH design-time surfaces. ScriptCompileSurface is covered by the
reflection parity guard (AlarmsAccessor added to its mirror pairs). The Central
UI Test-Run SandboxScriptHost is the third, hand-maintained mirror that the
parity test cannot reach (Central UI does not reference Site Runtime); without
it the design page would false-flag CS1061 on scripts the deploy gate accepts.
It throws a labelled ScriptSandboxException at run time -- there is no central
route to per-instance alarm state, and returning an empty list would read as
"nothing is in alarm", which is worse than an error.
ScriptTrustPolicy needs NO change, and the reason is structural rather than
incidental: the trust boundary is a deny-list over API roots, not an allow-list
of context members. A test pins that no ForbiddenScopes entry prefixes the
Commons script-surface namespace, so a future deny-list entry cannot silently
make ScriptAlarm untouchable.
Tests: 6 accessor cases (Ask contract, full native projection incl. AckTime,
unacked, computed-alarm derivation, placeholder visibility, scope-independence),
2 InstanceActor snapshot cases incl. equality with the Debug View row set, the
full MES script shape compiling against ScriptCompileSurface, 2 trust cases,
and a sandbox diagnose-clean case reading every projected ScriptAlarm field.
MES alarm-status API §6.4 (docs/plans/2026-06-30-mes-alarm-status-api.md,
Phase 1 task 1). MES needs a real AckDT for a triggered alarm, and the mirror
carried acked-vs-unacked but never WHEN. AckTime now rides the whole path:
DCL transition -> AlarmStateChanged -> gRPC AlarmStateUpdate -> site SQLite.
Stamping rule, identical on both protocols: non-null ONLY while the condition
is active AND acknowledged. That single predicate yields all three required
behaviours -- null while unacked, cleared on re-raise (a re-raise arrives
unacknowledged), and no phantom ack on a return-to-normal. The last one is
load-bearing for MxGateway, which maps INACTIVE to Acknowledged = true; without
the active check every clear would claim an ack the system never observed.
Provenance is honest, never fabricated:
- OPC UA A&C supplies a TRUE ack instant, so we now select it:
AcknowledgeableConditionType/AckedState/TransitionTime at SelectClause
index 18, APPENDED so the positional reads at 0-17 keep their meaning.
Servers that omit the field fall back to the event's own Time.
- MxAccess Gateway supplies none, so the ack transition's own timestamp is
used -- accurate to when the system SAW the ack. An ACTIVE_ACKED
re-subscribe snapshot restores one from LastTransitionTimestamp rather
than dropping it.
The decision lives in pure mappers (Opc/Mx AlarmMapper.DeriveAckTime), so it is
unit-tested with no live server or gateway.
Additive-only throughout: init-only property on AlarmStateChanged, trailing
optional positional on NativeAlarmTransition (all 14-arg call sites untouched),
proto field 24 (never reusing a number) regenerated via docker/regen-proto.sh
sitestream with the csproj diff verified empty.
Persistence rides native_alarm_state's existing metadata_json blob rather than
a new column -- deliberately. That table is RegisterReplicated in
SiteLocalDbSetup and LocalDb builds its CDC triggers from the column list at
registration time, so an additive JSON property changes no schema, no triggers
and no replication contract; metadata_json is exactly the extension point UA4
introduced for this. Rows written before the field deserialize it as null.
Tests: 4 OPC UA + 6 MxGateway mapper cases, 3 NativeAlarmActor (emit,
failover rehydrate, pre-AckTime row), 1 proto round-trip incl. the null case,
4 Commons additive/back-compat. The OPC UA SelectClause count lock-in moves
18 -> 19 with an index-18 assertion -- intended, the clause is appended, which
is precisely what that guard exists to make visible.
Caught live 2026-08-01 importing a bundle into the empty env2 cluster: a
create-missing Site has Id == 0 until SaveChanges on a relational provider,
and ApplyDataConnectionsAsync stamps DataConnection.SiteId as a raw scalar
(no navigation, no EF fix-up), so the insert violated
FK_DataConnections_Sites_SiteId. Every importer integration test runs on
the EF in-memory provider, which assigns ids eagerly on AddAsync — the
exact masking the in-code comment predicted. Fix: one SaveChangesAsync
between the site pass and the connection pass, riding the same outer
transaction (all-or-nothing preserved; the failed live import rolled back
cleanly). Regression test runs the create-missing path on SQLite
(CreateMissingSiteRelationalTests) — red without the fix, green with it.
DECISION: a pager whose only two controls are permanently disabled is noise, so
the conventional behaviour ships — the bar is hidden when the result set is a
single page. NotificationReport, which raised the finding, opts in.
RATIONALE for opt-in rather than default-on. OffsetPager is shared, and its
summary span ("Page N of Y · T total") doubles as the ONLY total-count readout
on ConfigurationAuditLog — auto-hiding there would silently delete the result
count for every query returning under a page, and the existing Playwright
fixture asserts "3 total" on exactly such a query. So the behaviour lives in the
shared component (reusable for the next consumer) behind HideWhenSinglePage,
default false, which keeps every current consumer byte-identical.
The guard fires only when single-page-ness is POSITIVELY established:
PageCount <= 1 AND Page <= 1 AND !HasNextPage. A null TotalCount means the host
cannot count, so the bar renders — the controls never vanish while a further
page still exists.
NotificationReport's own Playwright pagination test seeds 51 rows (2 pages) and
is unaffected. 5 new bUnit tests cover hide-on-single-page, hide-on-empty,
show-on-multi-page, show-when-TotalCount-unknown, and the default-off path.
TemplateEdit was the last page still hand-rolling its own modal chrome after
M10 — T34c only tokenized its backdrops. All four member-authoring forms
(Attribute, Alarm, Native Alarm Source, Script) now open through
IDialogService.ShowAsync, so the single DialogHost in MainLayout owns the
backdrop, focus trap, Escape and focus restoration.
Pattern copied from the already-migrated pages (MoveDataConnectionDialog +
Templates' Move/Rename dialogs): each body is its own component beside the page
taking a DialogContext<bool>, owning its form state, rendering validation and
server errors INLINE while staying open, and closing with Close(true) only once
the save succeeded — at which point the page reloads. An inline RenderFragment
would NOT have worked: DialogHost renders the captured fragment in its own tree,
so the page's StateHasChanged could never refresh it.
Persistence deliberately stayed on the page (it owns TemplateService, the
inherited-member rules, and the repository-direct native-source path) and is
reached through an OnSaveAsync delegate returning null on success or the message
to display. Behaviour preserved verbatim, including the List-attribute encode +
Decode round-trip check, the name/trigger-type read-only-on-edit rules, the
duplicate-native-source-name guard, and NormalizeExecutionTimeout.
TemplateScriptDialog keeps all four tab panels mounted (Monaco and the JSONJoy
island must not tear down on tab switch) and hosts the Test Run panel, which
needs the live unsaved editor buffer, so it injects ScriptAnalysisService
directly and cancels an in-flight run on dispose.
Extraction moved markup that three structural source-scanning tests pinned;
all three were repointed at the new files rather than weakened:
- TemplateNativeAlarmSourceEditorTests (+ a new test asserting the form is
host-mounted and the body renders no chrome of its own)
- AttributeListEditorTests (list-editor reveal now in the dialog body)
- TestRunWarningTests (Real I/O warning travelled with the script panel)
Build 0/0; CentralUI.Tests 973/973 green.
TreeView<TItem> handled only Enter/Space on the chevron; the tree itself was
unreachable by keyboard. Implements the WAI-ARIA tree pattern:
- Roving tabindex on li[role=treeitem] — exactly one node is tabbable, so the
whole tree is a single Tab stop. Target resolved per render: last-focused node
while still visible -> SelectedKey -> first visible node. Browser focus follows
via a per-node ElementReference + FocusAsync in OnAfterRenderAsync, guarded by
the same JSException/JSDisconnectedException/InvalidOperationException triple
the context-menu focus already used (a no-op under bUnit).
- ArrowDown/ArrowUp move between VISIBLE nodes; ArrowRight expands a collapsed
branch else moves to first child; ArrowLeft collapses an expanded branch else
moves to parent; Home/End jump to first/last; Enter/Space activate through the
SAME path a click takes (OnContentClick / OnCheckboxToggle) so selection
semantics never diverge between input modes.
- ARIA: aria-level, aria-posinset, aria-setsize added; aria-selected now renders
true/false on selectable+checkbox trees and stays absent on non-selectable ones.
- Event scoping: @onkeydown:stopPropagation on the li, chevron, checkbox and
content slot, so nested nodes do not double-handle and consumer controls inside
NodeContent keep their own key handling. Browser scroll-on-Space/Arrow is
suppressed by a minimal NATIVE inline onkeydown on the root ul, targeted at
treeitems only — Blazor's preventDefault directive is all-or-nothing per
element, so on the li it would trap Tab and cancel Enter/Space on consumer
buttons. No CSP is configured, so the inline handler runs.
BuildVisibleNodes() mirrors RenderNode's visibility rules and must stay in step.
Tests: 31 new bUnit tests in TreeViewKeyboardNavigationTests; the 47 existing
TreeView tests are unchanged and still green. Docs: new keyboard/a11y section in
docs/components/TreeView.md.
M5.4 T4 threaded a `parentExecutionId` parameter through
AlarmActor.SpawnAlarmExecution → AlarmExecutionActor → ScriptRuntimeContext,
but every call site passed null — so alarm on-trigger runs were silently always
execution-tree roots, contradicting the "tag-cascade coverage is complete"
claim in CLAUDE.md and Component-AuditLog.md.
Source the id where a spawner genuinely exists: a static attribute write issued
by a site script (`Instance.SetAttribute`) or by an inbound API request
(`Route.To(...).SetAttributes(...)`, whose ParentExecutionId was already carried
to the site and then dropped). The id rides site-locally through three additive,
nullable fields — no wire, proto or central schema change:
ScriptRuntimeContext.SetAttribute / RouteToSetAttributesRequest.ParentExecutionId
→ SetStaticAttributeCommand.SourceExecutionId
→ AttributeValueChanged.SourceExecutionId (InstanceActor static-write path)
→ AlarmActor.SpawnAlarmExecution → AlarmExecutionActor → ScriptRuntimeContext
All four computed trigger types participate. Expression triggers evaluate off
the dispatcher, so the writer of the newest value folded into the snapshot is
captured *with* the snapshot and echoed home on ExpressionEvalResult /
ExpressionEvalFailed — a change arriving mid-flight cannot mis-attribute the
raise.
Deliberately still roots (documented, not deferred): alarms fired by Data
Connection Layer values (external device data has no spawning execution — this
includes the device echo of a script write to a *data-sourced* attribute, so
only static writes cascade), and ScriptActor value-change/conditional/
expression/timer trigger runs (a timer tick has no spawner; a WhileTrue/interval
run has no single identifiable write).
Tests: new SiteRuntime.Tests/Actors/AlarmCascadeParentExecutionTests pins all
three hops — SetAttribute stamps the run's ExecutionId, InstanceActor publishes
it on the change (and publishes null when absent), and ValueMatch/HiLo/
Expression alarms parent the on-trigger run to the writer while a DCL-originated
change leaves it a root.
Docs: CLAUDE.md and Component-AuditLog.md corrected from "complete" to the true
behaviour; Component-SiteRuntime.md gains an "Audit correlation of an on-trigger
run" section with the hop table and the by-design root cases.
Two verified-absent parity gaps between the service layer and the CLI /
ManagementActor command surface, both left as follow-ups by the 2026-05-11
design plans.
(1) area move. AreaService.MoveAreaAsync had existed since the deployment
topology page shipped but was reachable only from the Blazor UI. Adds
MoveAreaCommand(AreaId, NewParentAreaId?) to Commons, a ManagementActor
dispatch arm delegating straight to AreaService.MoveAreaAsync (not-found /
self-parent / descendant-cycle / cross-site / name-collision all surface as
the standard curated ManagementCommandException failure response; the service
writes its own "Move" audit row), and the CLI verb `site area move --id
[--parent-id]`. Omitting --parent-id moves the area to the site root, matching
the command's nullable NewParentAreaId. The command carries the SAME any-of
[Designer, Deployer] gate as CreateArea/UpdateArea/DeleteArea (arch-review C6):
re-parenting is the same structural authoring act, exposed on the same two
surfaces. Placed under the existing `site area` group rather than a new
top-level `area` group, alongside its create/update/delete siblings.
(2) template folder verbs. The five folder management commands have been
handled by ManagementActor since the folder-hierarchy plan, but the promised
CLI surface was never written. Adds `template folder
list|create|rename|move|reorder|delete` mapping 1:1 onto ListTemplateFolders /
CreateTemplateFolder / RenameTemplateFolder / MoveTemplateFolder /
ReorderTemplateFolder / DeleteTemplateFolder. --parent-id is omitted to target
the tree root; --direction takes the lowercase literals up/down, validated at
parse time by AcceptOnlyFromAmong (same case-sensitive contract as the audit
--channel/--kind/--status options).
Follow-on updates: the frozen authorization matrix gains its MoveArea entry
(reflection-driven, so a missing entry would have failed CI); CommandTreeTests
pins both new verb sets plus the omit-parent-id-means-root parse behaviour and
registry round-trips; ManagementActorTests covers the MoveArea role gate and
the delegate-to-service success/root/cycle/not-found paths; the CLI README and
Component-ManagementService.md document the new surface (the latter also gained
the previously-undocumented ReorderTemplateFolder); both plan docs' follow-up
lines are marked done.
The Native Alarm Source Overrides card had no bulk affordance — the CSV path
shipped CLI-only (instance native-alarm-source import --file), so the UI could
only retarget one source at a time inline.
Adds a second InputFile on that card, mirroring the attribute importer's UX
(hidden input behind a button-styled label, 512 KB cap, success/error alert
with the per-line error list, toast). Parsing reuses the SHARED
NativeAlarmSourceOverrideCsvParser — the exact parser the CLI uses — and the
new pure InstanceConfigure.BuildNativeAlarmSourceCsvImport applies the same
batch rules the server enforces in
ManagementActor.HandleSetInstanceNativeAlarmSourceOverrides: the source must
resolve, must not be template-locked, and may appear at most once; any error
rejects the whole file and applies nothing.
Semantics match the CLI: merge, not full replace — sources absent from the
file keep their existing override, a blank field keeps the inherited value,
and an all-blank row clears that source's override (equivalent to the CLI's
all-null override row, without leaving a dead row behind).
Persistence reuses the inline editor's path: SaveNativeOverride's upsert body
is extracted to UpsertNativeOverrideCore (no SaveChangesAsync inside), so the
import commits the validated batch in one SaveChangesAsync — no new server
method, no duplicated parsing.
Tests: InstanceConfigureNativeAlarmCsvImportTests (9) — happy path, blank-field
inheritance, all-blank clear, merge semantics, unknown/locked/duplicate source
and parser-error rejection, plus structural pins on the InputFile wiring.
Docs: Component-CentralUI.md native-alarm-source card gains the import bullet.
The artifact apply (DeploymentManagerActor.HandleDeployArtifacts) was
upsert-only, so deleting an external system (or shared script, DB connection,
data connection) centrally never removed the site's SQLite row — a deleted
external system stayed callable from site scripts forever. Central always
ships the COMPLETE set of each artifact class (ArtifactDeploymentService
GetAll* snapshots; the wire's presence-tracking wrapper lists preserve
null-vs-empty), so the site now applies upsert-then-reconcile: after storing
the incoming set, SiteStorageService.DeleteRowsExceptAsync removes any stored
row absent from it, per artifact table. A null list still means 'field not
shipped' and touches nothing.
Runtime cleanup rides along: a reconciled-away shared script is unregistered
from the compiled SharedScriptLibrary (a stale delegate would stay callable
until restart), and a removed data connection is evicted from the DCL hash
cache and its live connection actor stopped via the previously-caller-less
RemoveConnectionCommand — both on the actor thread via the extended
ApplyArtifactDataConnectionsToDcl message. All four tables are
RegisterReplicated, so the deletes reach the standby as ordinary CDC row
tombstones.
Tests: storage-level reconcile per table (incl. empty-set-deletes-all and
idempotency) in ArtifactStorageTests; actor-level pins in
DeploymentManagerActorTests (orphan delete, null-set no-op, library
unregistration, DCL stop for the removed connection only). Docs:
Component-DeploymentManager + Component-SiteRuntime record the
full-set/reconcile semantics.
Phase 4 of the ClusterClient -> gRPC migration deleted the Akka transports
but left the naming behind: `ClusterClientSiteAuditClient` was transport-
agnostic and worked unchanged, so it survived the deletion under a name
that now describes a transport the repo no longer has. Same for a scatter
of doc-comments still framing gRPC as "the new transport" beside an Akka
one that is gone.
Renames it to `SiteCommunicationAuditClient` (and its test file) and
rewrites the stale comments to describe the single transport that exists.
Also tightens CLAUDE.md: drops the self-describing directory listing and
the 27-component enumeration in favour of the non-obvious parts only.
Behaviour-neutral: names and prose only. Recorded as the Phase 4
follow-up in docs/plans/2026-07-22-clusterclient-to-grpc-plan.md.
OldestNodeActiveHealthCheck existed because the shared ActiveNodeHealthCheck
selected by cluster leadership (review 01 [High]): leadership is address-ordered
and diverges from singleton placement after a restart, and during a partition
both sides compute themselves leader so Traefik served both. Health 0.3.0 makes
the shared check age-based — it is now this host's own rule, promoted — so the
private copy is deleted and central registers the shared type.
ActiveNodeEvaluator, the "THE single definition of active node" this repo already
maintained, now delegates to the shared ClusterActiveNode rather than
re-implementing it. That keeps the delivery gate, the heartbeat IsActive stamp,
the inbound-API gate and the /health/active tier on one rule, and it means the
rule is shared with OtOpcUa, which had independently written a third copy.
Communication takes a ZB.MOM.WW.Health.Akka reference for it; the layering
trade-off is recorded at the PackageReference.
SitePairActiveNodeHealthCheck is deliberately KEPT. It is not a duplicate of the
rule — it is a thin adapter over the site's own IClusterNodeProvider, which
scopes to site-{SiteId} and is itself now backed by ClusterActiveNode. Registering
the shared check directly would have to re-derive the site role and would lose the
property that the tier and singleton placement come from the same provider.
Central stays unscoped: every central member competes for one active slot.
No behaviour change on any node — same rule, one implementation instead of two.
Verified: Host.Tests 439/439, Communication ActiveNode 2/2.
Port OtOpcUa's bootstrap guard (lmxopcua d1dac87f) to ScadaBridge's
BuildHocon bootstrap. Both pair nodes are self-first seeds, so a true
simultaneous cold start (shared site power event) races FirstSeedNodeProcess
on both and forms two 1-node clusters that never merge.
Opt-in dark switch ScadaBridge:Cluster:BootstrapGuard:Enabled (default off,
guard-off behavior byte-identical). When on: BuildHocon emits an empty seed
list so Akka does not auto-join, and ClusterBootstrapCoordinator (IHostedService,
registered in both the Central and Site composition roots) picks the join order
from ClusterBootstrapGuard's pure decision core — the lower canonical host:port
is the founder (self-first, forms immediately); the higher node TCP-probes the
founder up to PartnerProbeSeconds and joins peer-first if reachable, else
self-first (cold-start-alone preserved). Decides before a single JoinSeedNodes,
never re-forms mid-handshake.
Review notes carried over: case-insensitive founder tie-break; fail-fast
validation of probe timings when enabled; higher-node-cold-start-alone covered
by a real-ActorSystem test. 21 unit + 5 real-cluster tests (incl. the headline
both-cold-start-together-form-one-cluster).
Site nodes served no health surface at all — gRPC on the HTTP/2-only listener and
/metrics on the HTTP/1.1 one — so nothing outside the cluster could ask a site
node whether it was ready or which half of the pair was active. The family
overview dashboard probes every instance the same way, and this is the one gap.
Three checks, registered in SiteServiceRegistration.Configure (not Program.cs, so
the composition-root tests that build this graph actually cover them) and mapped
by app.MapZbHealth() on the site's HTTP/1.1 listener (default :8084) alongside
/metrics:
akka-cluster [Ready] the shared AkkaClusterHealthCheck. Also carries the
cluster-view data (leader/memberCount/...) the dashboard
reads, free with ZB.MOM.WW.Health 0.2.0.
localdb [Ready] NEW SiteLocalDbHealthCheck — SELECT 1 through the
registered ILocalDb. Site has no EF context; central's
DatabaseHealthCheck<ScadaBridgeDbContext> is central-only.
Replication state rides along as data ENRICHMENT only:
replication is default-OFF, so failing on it would mark
every correctly-configured node unready.
active-node [Active] NEW SitePairActiveNodeHealthCheck, delegating to
IClusterNodeProvider.SelfIsPrimary. Deliberately NOT
central's OldestNodeActiveHealthCheck: that one calls
SelfIsOldest(cluster) with no role argument and would
compute "oldest" across the wrong member set on a mesh
carrying more than one site.
Anonymous, as central's are: the site pipeline runs no authentication middleware
and has no FallbackPolicy, so nothing extra was needed.
Also bumps ZB.MOM.WW.Health* 0.1.0 -> 0.2.0 (central gains data.leader for free).
Tests: SiteHealthCheckTests builds the REAL site container and activates every
registration through its factory (exact-set names, one tier tag each, resolved
types, central-only checks absent behind a positive control) plus behaviour for
both new checks. SiteHealthEndpointTests boots the real site Program over
WebApplicationFactory and proves the endpoints are MAPPED — without it, deleting
MapZbHealth would leave every registration test green while site nodes 404'd.
Prereq for scadaproj docs/plans/2026-07-22-overview-dashboard-impl-plan.md Phase 1.
Code review of a1abbff7 found two edge cases: a discovery/advertised URL with no
explicit port emitted a malformed ':-1' (opc.tcp has no Uri default port), and an
IPv6 literal host could lose/double its brackets. Omit the port when neither URL
carries one; bracket an IPv6 host only when missing. +4 tests (12 total).
An OPC UA server advertises its base address from its own config, not the route
the client took — commonly a 0.0.0.0 wildcard bind or an internal container/NAT
hostname. The OPC Foundation session dials EndpointDescription.EndpointUrl
verbatim, so a 0.0.0.0 advertisement resolved to the client's own loopback and
the connect failed. RealOpcUaClient now swaps the advertised authority for the
reachable host/port (ConnectAsync + VerifyEndpointAsync), preserving scheme+path;
no-op when already reachable. Surfaced live-gating OtOpcUa v3 (#14).
'Pattern 4: Integration Routing' — RouteIntegrationCallAsync →
SiteEnvelope(IntegrationCallRequest) → SiteCommunicationActor integration
handler — was plumbed end to end but connected at neither end: no
producer (zero callers) and no handler (AkkaHostedService never
registered LocalHandlerType.Integration). It was an early scaffold the
architecture routed around — the brokered External→Central→Site→Central
round-trip is served by the Inbound API's routed-site-script path (the
RouteTo* verbs, driven from CommunicationServiceInstanceRouter), which is
live, tested, and shares IntegrationTimeout.
Decision (#32): delete. Removed the IntegrationCall{Request,Response}
messages, RouteIntegrationCallAsync, the SiteCommunicationActor receive
block + _integrationHandler field + LocalHandlerType.Integration, and the
four tests that covered them (2 actor, 2 message-contract, 1 dispatcher-
reject, 1 mapper-reject). KEPT IntegrationTimeout — it is the live
timeout for the RouteTo* verbs. Updated the exclusion-narrative comments
(proto/mapper/dispatcher), design §4, the components doc timeout table,
and marked the known-issue RESOLVED.
Full solution build clean (0/0); Communication 634 + Host 421 green.
Net -172/+20 across 14 files. Not in the gRPC proto (was deliberately
excluded there), so no wire-format change.
TestAccountSid was 'ACtest123' (AC + 6 chars). The management create
path validates the Account SID against ^AC[0-9a-fA-F]{32}$
(ManagementActor.cs:2205, added 2026-07-10, commit 40088a21) while the
fixture predates the guard (2026-06-19) — so the create was rejected and
the config-card + secret-non-leak assertions have been red/inert since.
Use AC + 32 hex (AC00000000000000000000000000000001) so the create
succeeds and the downstream Auth-Token-non-leak assertion actually runs
again. Unit-level RepositoryCoverageTests keep their short SIDs — they
construct SmsConfiguration directly and never hit the validated path.
BundleImporter.ApplyAsync opened a user-initiated transaction directly,
but the central ConfigurationDb context is configured with
EnableRetryOnFailure. SqlServerRetryingExecutionStrategy rejects
user-initiated transactions, so every bundle import threw on any real
SQL Server ('...does not support user-initiated transactions.'). The
whole Transport suite ran on the in-memory provider (no retrying
strategy, BeginTransaction is a no-op) so it never surfaced.
Extract the transactional apply into ApplyMergeAsync and drive it via
_dbContext.Database.CreateExecutionStrategy().ExecuteAsync, so the
strategy owns the BeginTransaction -> apply -> Commit unit as one
retriable block. The delegate resets per-attempt state (change tracker
+ ApplyMergeAsync rebuilds its own summary/resolution accumulators) so a
retried attempt cannot double-apply; a rollback failure is captured and
surfaced on the BundleImportFailed audit row exactly as before. Post-
commit side effects (ScriptArtifactsChanged publish, session zero/
remove) moved outside the retriable delegate so they run once.
Regression test: BundleImporterRetryingStrategyTests runs the import on
SQLite with a retrying execution strategy (RetriesOnFailure == true,
arming the same guard as production). It fails with the exact production
error on the pre-fix code and passes after. Existing rollback/apply
contracts unchanged (104 integration + 154 unit tests green).
ClusterClient→gRPC migration Phase 4 (docs/plans/2026-07-22-clusterclient-to-grpc-plan.md).
Phases 2/3 proved both directions on gRPC; this removes the Akka transport underneath.
Deleted:
- AkkaCentralTransport, AkkaSiteTransport (+ their dedicated tests)
- ISiteClientFactory + DefaultSiteClientFactory; CentralCommunicationActor legacy
ctor + SelectTransport (Host now builds GrpcSiteTransport and injects it)
- ClusterClient creation + both ClusterClientReceptionist.RegisterService calls in
AkkaHostedService; the RegisterCentralClient message + receive block
- CommunicationOptions.CentralContactPoints; the CentralTransport/SiteTransport
coexistence flags; the CentralTransportMode/SiteTransportKind enums
gRPC is now the only site↔central transport (site→central CentralControlService via
GrpcCentralTransport; central→site SiteCommandService via GrpcSiteTransport), both
built unconditionally by the Host. NoOpCentralTransport is the fail-loud null-default
so TestKit command-dispatch suites still construct the site actor without a wired
transport; production always injects GrpcCentralTransport.
Config: CentralGrpcEndpoints is now unconditional — CommunicationOptionsValidator
rejects blank entries (role-agnostic), and StartupValidator requires a Site node to
list >=1 endpoint (fail-fast, mirrors GrpcPsk). Rig configs moved
CentralContactPoints -> CentralGrpcEndpoints (docker x6, docker-env2 x2, Host default,
deploy/wonder-app-vd03). Kept Akka.Cluster.Tools (ClusterSingleton still used).
Tests: build 0/0; Communication.Tests 640, Host.Tests 421 green. Removed the
ClusterClient.Send per-site-routing tests (covered by the transport suites), swapped
the ISiteClientFactory-based ctors to a substitute ISiteCommandTransport, converted
the audit-push integration relay to an in-process bridge transport.
Docs: Component-Communication/Host/StoreAndForward, components/Communication,
topology-guide, grpc_streams (SUPERSEDED note), the frame-size known-issue (retired
amendment), and CLAUDE.md transport decisions.
Not included: the dead IntegrationCallRequest path (#32) is a separate user-owned
behavioral decision — SiteEnvelope routing is transport-agnostic so it still compiles.
Extract the central→site send path in CentralCommunicationActor behind a new
ISiteCommandTransport, selected by ScadaBridge:Communication:SiteTransport
(Akka | Grpc, default Akka — rollback = flip the flag). CommunicationService's
27 commands, SiteCallAuditActor's 2 parked relays and DebugStreamBridgeActor's
subscribe/unsubscribe are untouched; the seam sits below SiteEnvelope.
- AkkaSiteTransport: today's per-site ClusterClient path extracted verbatim
(the _siteClients lookup + ClusterClient.Send with the reply-to sender
preserved, and the "no client ⇒ warn + drop, caller's Ask times out" path).
- GrpcSiteTransport: dials the site SiteCommandService (T1B.1 proto client) via
SiteCommandDtoMapper, PSK + x-scadabridge-site on the channel through
ControlPlaneCredentials, per-command deadlines set EQUAL to today's
CommunicationService Ask timeouts (per-command, not per-group: DeploymentState
query and TriggerSiteFailover use QueryTimeout; the two parked relays map to
QueryTimeout so SiteCallAudit's inner RelayTimeout 10s < 30s ordering holds;
WaitForAttribute keeps its dynamic Timeout + IntegrationTimeout).
- SitePairChannelProvider: per-site A/B channel pair with sticky failover
(flip only on Unavailable — NEVER on DeadlineExceeded, a write/deploy/failover
may have run), background failback probe to the preferred node with 1s→60s
doubling backoff, PSK invalidation on site removal. Fed by the SAME DB refresh
loop (extended to carry GrpcNodeA/GrpcNodeBAddress) — no second poll.
Tests: actor-with-substitute-transport (routing, Ask-reply plumbing, per-site
lifecycle across refreshes), ResolveDeadline pinned to each command's current
Ask timeout, and GrpcSiteTransport/SitePairChannelProvider over dual in-process
TestServers (PSK+header+deadline attached, Unavailable failover + stickiness,
failback to preferred, no-retry-on-DeadlineExceeded). Proto csproj untouched
(no active <Protobuf> item). Full solution builds 0 warnings; Communication.Tests
607 green with Akka default.
Refactor SiteCommunicationActor's central→site routing table into one
SiteCommandDispatcher — the single routing truth for the 28 migrated commands
(IntegrationCallRequest, the dead 29th, stays on the actor and out of the
dispatcher). The Akka actor and the new SiteCommandGrpcService both route through
one dispatcher instance so the two transports can never drift on where a command
goes. Server-side only: nothing central flips to gRPC yet (that is T1B.3);
ClusterClient remains the live path.
Decisions worth recording:
- Targets preserved byte-for-byte. Lifecycle/OPC UA/query/route → the Deployment
Manager singleton proxy; DeployArtifacts/EventLog/parked → their null-guarded
handlers with the exact same "handler not available" replies; the parked
handler stays NODE-LOCAL (per-node replicated-store owner), never the singleton
proxy — pinned by a dispatcher test that asserts the target is the parked probe
and NOT the dm proxy.
- Sender preservation intact. The actor's command handlers became thin
DispatchCommand delegations that still Forward (central Ask → reply routes
straight back); the existing SiteCommunicationActorTests pass unchanged, which
is the regression guard for that plumbing. UnsubscribeDebugView keeps its
fire-and-forget shape: the actor Forwards, the gRPC service Tells + returns the
synthetic UnsubscribeDebugViewAck so a unary RPC still answers.
- Ack-before-Leave on failover. The dispatcher's PrepareFailover resolves the
standby with a DRY-RUN (no leave) to build the ack, and hands back a deferred
CommitLeave; the gRPC service returns the ack, then schedules the real
Cluster.Leave — so a caller reaching the very node about to leave still gets its
ack instead of a broken stream. The actor path keeps today's coupled
resolve-and-leave (over ClusterClient the ack Tell only enqueues, so order is
immaterial). Proven at both levels: a dispatcher test asserts the ack is built
before CommitLeave runs, and a TestServer test asserts the recorded seam order
is resolve-then-leave.
- ControlPlaneAuthInterceptor gates SiteCommandService by EXTENDING
DefaultGatedPrefixes (descriptor-derived), not by adding a constructor — the
one-public-ctor invariant and its test stay green.
Tests: SiteCommandDispatcherTests (28-command routing incl. parked node-locality
and both failover paths) and SiteCommandGrpcService TestServer tests (auth,
readiness→Unavailable, one command per oneof group, failover ordering). Full
solution build 0/0; Communication.Tests 574 and Host.Tests 377 green. No active
<Protobuf> item.
Phase 1B's contract slice: the wire shape and the canonical translation for the
28 central→site commands that leave ClusterClient. No behaviour changes yet —
SiteCommunicationActor and CentralCommunicationActor are untouched; the
dispatcher refactor (T1B.2) and the central transport seam (T1B.3) consume this.
Protos/site_command.proto (package scadabridge.sitecommand.v1, service
SiteCommandService): six domain RPCs, each with a `oneof` request/reply
envelope. The grouping is what carries deadline policy — every command inside a
group shares a CommunicationOptions timeout class today, so one RPC per group
keeps the deadline choice in one place on the client and one dispatch switch on
the server, while the oneof keeps each command individually typed:
ExecuteLifecycle(6) · ExecuteOpcUa(8) · ExecuteQuery(4) · ExecuteParked(5) ·
ExecuteRoute(4) · TriggerFailover(1). IntegrationCallRequest — the 29th entry on
SiteCommunicationActor's receive table — is deliberately excluded as dead code
(2026-07-22-integration-call-routing-is-dead-code.md).
Contract decisions worth knowing:
- Nullable COLLECTIONS ride in per-collection wrapper messages
(DeployArtifactsCommand's six artifact lists, CertTrustResult.Certs,
RouteToCallRequest.Parameters). proto3 repeated/map collapses null into empty,
and that distinction is live at the site — the same silent-data-loss class the
transport round-trip guard exposed in PLAN-05 T8. Goldens cover null, empty
and populated for each.
- Nullable strings use the empty-string-means-null convention already set by
AuditEventDtoMapper, with ONE exception: RouteToWaitForAttributeRequest's
TargetValueEncoded, where "wait for the empty string" is a real target, so it
carries a StringValue wrapper. Both behaviours are asserted, not assumed.
- Nullable enums ride in one-field messages (proto3 enums have no presence and
no stock wrapper). Enum translation is an explicit switch in both directions —
never by ordinal — so reordering a C# enum cannot re-map the wire; every wire
enum reserves 0 for _UNSPECIFIED and decodes to a documented safe default
rather than faulting a command from a version-skewed peer.
- New LooseValueCodec carries the surviving `object?` members (script params and
return values, attribute values, tag read/write values) as a type-tagged union
so a boxed value keeps its runtime CLR type, as it does today under Akka's
type-preserving JSON serializer. Dates ride as invariant round-trip strings,
not Timestamp, which would silently normalise away DateTime.Kind and
DateTimeOffset.Offset. Lists/maps recurse; anything outside the tagged set
falls back to JSON and is documented as CLR-type-lossy.
- DebugViewSnapshot gets its own full-fidelity alarm/attribute messages rather
than reusing sitestream's AlarmStateUpdate, which flattens values to display
strings — right for a live stream, lossy for a snapshot the UI treats as
authoritative. The encoder omits an AlarmStateChanged.Condition that already
equals the record's derived default, so computed alarms round-trip exactly
(record equality compares the nullable backing field, not the property).
Tests are reflection-driven so the coverage cannot drift: the round-trip theory
enumerates the mapper's own ToProto overloads, the envelope guards enumerate the
generated oneof descriptors, and a missing golden fails the build. 216 new tests
green (Communication 532 total, Commons 684 total, solution build 0/0).
Codegen is checked in under SiteCommandGrpc/ per the sitestream recipe; the
<Protobuf> ItemGroup stays commented out (an active one segfaults protoc in the
linux_arm64 Docker image). docker/regen-proto.sh now handles every proto in that
ItemGroup instead of just sitestream, and re-comments idempotently.
Caught on the Phase 1A rig proof: central-a logged only "Now listening on:
http://[::]:8083" and nothing else. Central UI, the Management + Inbound API, and
the /health/* endpoints Traefik + IActiveNodeGate depend on were all gone, with no
startup error — the node booted, joined the cluster and served gRPC fine.
Cause: calling options.ListenAnyIP in ConfigureKestrel puts Kestrel into
explicit-endpoints mode, which SUPPRESSES the URLs from ASPNETCORE_URLS/--urls
entirely — it is not additive, contrary to the comment T1A.2 shipped. Central's whole
HTTP/1 surface lives on that URL (http://+:5000 on the rig, a different port in prod),
so binding only the gRPC port silently deleted it. The site branch has the same shape
but no ASPNETCORE_URLS surface to lose — it binds every port it needs explicitly.
Fix: parse the port(s) from the configured URLs and re-declare them (Http1AndHttp2)
alongside the gRPC port (Http2) in the one ConfigureKestrel call. New
Program.ParseHttpBindPorts + CentralHttpBindPortsTests (14 cases: wildcard/ipv6/
hostname hosts, multi-URL, de-dupe, scheme-default, null/blank, unparseable-skipped).
Why no test caught it originally: unit/E2E tests use TestServer, which never binds
real Kestrel. Only a live node exposes the missing listener — which is exactly what
the rig proof is for.
Introduce ICentralTransport as the site->central choke point inside
SiteCommunicationActor. The seven site->central sends (notification submit/
status, audit + cached-telemetry ingest, reconcile, health, heartbeat) now
delegate to an injected transport instead of owning ClusterClient.Send inline.
- AkkaCentralTransport: verbatim extraction of today's ClusterClient.Send path,
including the exact sender-forwarding that routes central's reply straight
back to the waiting Ask. Default when no transport is injected -> behaviour
unchanged, existing SiteCommunicationActorTests pass as-is.
- GrpcCentralTransport + CentralChannelProvider: dial CentralControlService with
sticky failover + background failback (1s-doubling-cap-60s), PSK +
x-scadabridge-site via ControlPlaneCredentials, per-call deadlines mirroring
today's Ask timeouts. Cross-node retry ONLY on provably-unsent
connect failures; never on DeadlineExceeded. Heartbeat stays fire-and-forget.
- StaticSitePskProvider: site's single own-key provider (fail-closed).
- CommunicationOptions: CentralTransport flag (default Akka) + CentralGrpcEndpoints
(validator: required when transport=Grpc). Host selects the impl; the
ClusterClient is created only on the Akka path.
Tests: actor-with-fake-transport (7 delegations + fault routing + heartbeat
no-fault), AkkaCentralTransport sender-forwarding, GrpcCentralTransport over
in-process TestServer (failover flip, sticky, failback, PSK+header, deadline,
no-retry-on-deadline), validator. Communication.Tests 371 green, Host.Tests 391
green; the three above-seam suites pass unmodified.
Central now ALSO listens for the seven site→central control messages over
gRPC, alongside the existing ClusterClient path. Nothing flips to gRPC yet —
sites keep CentralTransport=Akka (T1A.3's job); central simply starts also
accepting.
- CentralControlGrpcService (Communication.Grpc): decodes each RPC onto the
SAME in-process message the ClusterClient path carries, Asks the existing
CentralCommunicationActor (zero handler-logic changes), encodes the reply via
the T1A.1 mapper. Readiness-gated like SiteStreamGrpcServer.SetReady —
Unavailable until AkkaHostedService hands the actor over. Heartbeat stays
fire-and-forget (Tell, always-OK, never gated on readiness). Ingest reuses the
shared SiteStreamGrpcServer.AuditIngestAskTimeout constant. Fault→status
mapping is retry-aware: Unavailable (never dispatched, safe to cross-node
retry) vs DeadlineExceeded/Internal (it ran, do not re-send elsewhere).
- CentralControlAuthInterceptor (Host): a SEPARATE interceptor class, not a
variant constructor on ControlPlaneAuthInterceptor. Central's model is per-site
(verify the Bearer token against the key for the site in the required
x-scadabridge-site header, via ISitePskProvider) where a site verifies its one
own-key — a genuinely different model. Fail-closed on every branch: missing or
blank header, unresolvable key, and mismatched token all → PermissionDenied,
never pass-through. One public constructor only (the explicit-prefix ctor is
internal), pinned by a reflection test — a second public ctor makes
Grpc.AspNetCore's GetFactory() throw per-call and silently disables the gate.
- Explicit Kestrel h2c listener on new option ScadaBridge:Node:CentralGrpcPort
(default 8083, symmetric with sites), mirroring the Site branch. Additive to
central's :5000 HTTP/1 surface, which is untouched — gRPC does NOT go through
Traefik (HTTP/1 only). Registered by type on AddGrpc; service mapped with
MapGrpcService. Port range-validated by NodeOptionsValidator.
- Rig: publish the central gRPC port 9013:8083 / 9014:8083 on both central nodes
so a later task can exercise it.
Tests: CentralControlEndToEndTests (Host.Tests, TestServer + real interceptor +
real service over a stub actor) proves auth positives/negatives are
distinguishable and covers unary + the ingest bridge shapes; the interceptor is
registered BY TYPE, never in DI. CentralControlAuthInterceptorTests pins the
per-site gate + one-public-ctor invariant. CentralControlGrpcServiceTests
(Communication.Tests, TestKit) covers the readiness gate, fire-and-forget
heartbeat, and the DeadlineExceeded-vs-Unavailable status mapping. No active
<Protobuf> item. Communication.Tests (356) + Host.Tests (384) green.
Phase 1A of the ClusterClient→gRPC migration needs a wire contract for the
seven messages SiteCommunicationActor forwards to /user/central-communication.
This lands the contract and its mapper only — hosting (T1A.2) and the site-side
transport seam (T1A.3) follow.
`Protos/central_control.proto` (package scadabridge.centralcontrol.v1, service
CentralControlService) declares SubmitNotification, QueryNotificationStatus,
IngestAuditEvents, IngestCachedTelemetry, ReconcileSite, ReportSiteHealth and
Heartbeat. Note the direction is the inverse of SiteStreamService: here the site
dials and central serves.
Decisions worth recording:
- The two ingest RPCs IMPORT sitestream.proto and reuse AuditEventBatch /
CachedTelemetryBatch / IngestAck rather than redeclaring them. The site
telemetry actor already builds those messages, so a second copy would fork one
wire contract into two kept in lockstep by hand. ForwardState / IngestedAtUtc
stay off-wire exactly as they are today.
- Heartbeat replies google.protobuf.Empty — it is fire-and-forget and must never
surface a fault onto the heartbeat timer path.
- The three NULLABLE SiteHealthReport collections travel inside single-field
wrapper messages (ConnectionEndpointMapDto / TagQualityMapDto /
NodeStatusListDto). proto3 cannot express presence on repeated/map fields, but
null and empty genuinely differ here — SiteHealthCollector emits
`ClusterNodes: _clusterNodes?.ToList()` and the central health surface reads
null as "not reported", not as "reported empty". Same reasoning drives the
BoolValue/Int64Value/DoubleValue wrappers on LocalDbReplicationConnected,
LocalDbOplogBacklog and the two age gauges, whose docs are explicit that null
is not zero/false.
- ConnectionHealthEnum reserves 0 for UNSPECIFIED instead of mapping Connected
onto it, and the decoder resolves anything unknown to ConnectionHealth.Error.
An unrecognised connection state must not render as "healthy".
- Guid? execution ids travel as "D" strings with empty meaning null; a malformed
non-empty value throws rather than being laundered into "no correlation".
- DateTimeOffset normalizes to a UTC instant (a protobuf Timestamp has no
offset). Lossless in practice — every producer stamps UTC — and documented +
asserted rather than left implicit.
SiteCallDtoMapper gains a ToDto(SiteCall) overload. Its doc comment previously
asserted such a method "would be dead code"; that held only while ClusterClient
was the sole path from IngestCachedTelemetryCommand (which carries SiteCall, not
SiteCallOperational) to central. Comment corrected alongside.
Golden tests round-trip every message through a real protobuf encode/decode —
DTO → proto → bytes → proto → DTO — with a fully-populated case and a
null/empty/minimal case for every optional member. Verified to have teeth by
mutation: dropping a scalar, collapsing an empty nullable collection to absent,
and nulling a gauge each fail a test.
Codegen stays CHECKED IN under CentralControlGrpc/ (protoc segfaults in the
linux_arm64 Docker image); no active <Protobuf> item is committed.
docker/regen-proto.sh is generalized to `regen-proto.sh [sitestream|
centralcontrol|all]` — it now injects the ItemGroup rather than unwrapping a
comment, so it no longer depends on there being exactly one Protobuf line, and
it restores the csproj verbatim on every exit path.
