Neither Test Run form implemented IDisposable, so navigating away mid-run left
_runCts uncancelled: the sandbox kept the run alive until its own internal
script timeout, and the eventual continuation touched a torn-down component's
_running/_runResult fields. TemplateScriptDialog already got this right — both
forms now mirror it exactly: @implements IDisposable plus a Dispose() that
cancels + disposes _runCts.
ScriptAnalysisService.RunInSandboxAsync is marked virtual (test-only seam,
mirroring the existing virtual on DebugStreamService.StartStreamAsync/
StopStream) so a TaskCompletionSource-gated stub can hold a run open
deterministically. New bUnit tests (ScriptFormSandboxDisposalTests) prove, for
both forms: disposing mid-run cancels the token the sandbox observed, and the
cancelled continuation resolves with no unhandled exception and no _runResult/
_running mutation. Proof of failure: reverting only the two .razor changes
(keeping the virtual seam) reproduces all 4 failures — the token is never
cancelled and the no-op assertions time out.
ScriptOptions.WithReferences(Assembly[]) resolves each assembly through
MetadataReference.CreateFromFile, which does not cache: every call mints a
fresh AssemblyMetadata -> PEReader -> NativeHeapMemoryBlock holding an
unmanaged copy of the assembly metadata that nothing disposes. Building the
options per compile therefore leaked native memory permanently — invisible to
the GC, to gcdump and to the managed allocation counters, so the working set
grew while the GC heap did not.
Diagnosed from a live dump of a wonder-app-vd03 Site node: 2,885 MB working
set 78 min after a cold start, only 150 MB live GC heap, ~2,469 MB on the
default process heap across ~6,700 undisposed AssemblyMetadata instances
against 473 DLLs on disk.
Three sites, all hoisted to static readonly:
- SiteRuntime ScriptCompilationService (the dumped one)
- InboundAPI InboundScriptExecutor — same defect on the central node; method
compiles recur on every re-registration and revision change
- CentralUI ScriptAnalysisService — CreateFromFile per sandbox run
ScriptAnalysis RoslynScriptCompiler also builds options per call but draws
from the static ScriptTrustPolicy.DefaultReferences, so it mints no metadata
and is left alone.
Guarded by reference-equality on the artifact rather than by watching memory:
a bytes-watching test would be flaky, and the leak is native so the managed
counters cannot see it at all. The test is proven to fail before the fix.
This does NOT close the AddTemplateScript OOM — that path was shown twice not
to compile scripts. It explains how a long-running node reaches a native
memory state where a large allocation fails with gigabytes free, which is a
lead worth re-testing, not a closure.
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.
Remove project bookkeeping citations from shipped code comments across the
solution: hyphenated task IDs (WP-14, StoreAndForward-025), milestone/task/
issue refs (M3, Task 4, Audit Log #23, #21), Bundle X task-bundle labels,
and C/D/K/S/T phase labels.
Comment text only — no code logic, string/log literals, or XML-doc structure
changed. Genuine descriptions are preserved (only the citation is stripped),
and technical lookalikes are retained (UTF-8, SHA-256, T00:00:00, M365,
UTC-5, pre-C4/pre-C5 schema versions). Flagged by the new CommentChecker
TaskReferenceInComment / TrackingReferenceInComment checks plus targeted
grep passes; full solution builds clean, append-only guard tests pass.
#3 — CollisionDetector counted a derived template's IsInherited placeholder
rows as a distinct origin from the parent members the inheritance walk
re-adds, reporting a spurious "Naming collision" for every inherited row and
blocking any attribute/composition add to a derived template. CollectDirectMembers
now skips IsInherited rows on the direct-template and inherited-parent walks;
it keeps them for the composed-module walk, where placeholders are the sole
representation of a derived module's inherited members (that walk does not
climb the composed template's parent chain).
#7 — SandboxAttributeAccessor (Central UI Test-Run host) omitted
WriteBatchAndWaitAsync / WaitAsync / WaitForAsync, so the editor false-flagged
valid instance scripts with CS1061 even though `template validate` and the
deploy gate accept them. Added the five overloads mirroring the runtime
AttributeAccessor; they throw a labelled ScriptSandboxException if run in
Test Run (the central sandbox has no device-batch / event-waiter transport).
Tests: +3 CollisionDetector unit + 1 end-to-end TemplateService (derived add
now succeeds); +2 ScriptAnalysisService diagnose-clean. Each new test verified
to fail without its fix with the exact user-facing symptom. Full suites green
(TemplateEngine.Tests 438, CentralUI.Tests 866).
Docs: Component-TemplateEngine.md (inherited-placeholder collision rule),
Component-ScriptAnalysis.md (third sandbox surface + its compile-clean guard),
known-issues tracker #3/#7 marked resolved and the minor note promoted to #8.
Fixes the 8 findings from the 2026-06-24 re-review (commit c42bb485), with a
regression test per Medium finding:
- DataConnectionLayer-029 (Med): HandleAlarmSubscribeCompleted now mirrors the
tag-path re-check — if a feed is already stored for the source, release the
redundant just-created subscription instead of overwriting + leaking the first
one (the double-subscribe window DCL-023 reopened). +regression test.
- InboundAPI-031 (Med): remove WaitForAttribute's local 5s grace backstop (tighter
than the CommunicationService Ask's timeout+IntegrationTimeout round-trip budget,
so a slow-but-valid timed-out 'false' got cancelled into a 500). Link only the
client-abort + explicit caller tokens; the lower layer owns the backstop. +test.
- SiteRuntime-032 (Med): derive the deployed count from an authoritative set of
deployed config names (HashSet) instead of a map-presence-gated int, so deleting
a DISABLED instance decrements correctly (SiteRuntime-029's gate leaked it).
+deploy->disable->delete regression test.
- StoreAndForward-028 (Med): reset _bufferedCount in StopAsync alongside the
register-guard so a same-instance Stop->Start re-seeds from a clean base (no ~2N
gauge double-count). +restart regression test.
- AuditLog-017 (Low): test the OnIngestAsync scope-resolution guard (actor survives,
replies empty, counts the failure) — no longer unpinned.
- CentralUI-037 / ScriptAnalysis-009 / SiteRuntime-033 (Low): doc-comment + spec
fixes (Database-throws in the inbound sandbox; baseReferences param wording;
native-alarm cap return-to-normal + per-condition NativeAlarmDropped eviction).
Targeted suites green: SiteRuntime 5, StoreAndForward 6, InboundAPI 31,
DataConnectionLayer 10, AuditLog 5, ScriptAnalysis 40, CentralUI ScriptAnalysis 52.
Resolves InboundAPI-026/027/028/029 (+ newly-surfaced -030).
- 026: authorize the scoped Database helper in the design doc; SQL-injection
protection is parameter binding (values never concatenated); allow writes via
ExecuteAsync; drop the false 'read-only' claim. Named connections only.
- 027: async ADO.NET end-to-end (no .GetAwaiter().GetResult()); honour the method
deadline token on ExecuteScalarAsync/ExecuteReaderAsync/ExecuteNonQueryAsync +
a CommandTimeout backstop derived from the method timeout.
- 028: negative-path tests (null-gateway, deadline cancellation, parameterization)
+ e2e Database + WaitForAttribute cases through the real endpoint.
- 029: WaitForAttribute is bounded by its WAIT timeout (per-wait CTS + client-abort
+ explicit token), NOT the method deadline (spec §6) — a long wait may outlive the
method timeout; WithRequestAborted threads the raw client-abort token separately.
- 030: Central UI compile-surface mirrors (InboundScriptHost / SandboxInboundScriptHost)
gained the Database member (drifted since the runtime helper was added) so the
authorized async API type-checks at the design-time gate.
Add WaitForAttribute(attributeName, targetValue, timeout, cancellationToken)
to InboundScriptHost.RouteTarget and SandboxInboundScriptHost.RouteTarget,
mirroring the shipped runtime signature in RouteHelper. Eliminates the false
CS error the editor raised against valid Route.To("X").WaitForAttribute(...)
calls in inbound API method scripts. Test asserts the call diagnoses clean
under ScriptKind.InboundApi.
Resolve all 622 issues flagged by the enhanced CommentChecker: add missing
<returns> tags (incl. the standard phrasing on non-generic Task methods),
add missing <summary> tags, and replace misused/redundant <inheritdoc/> on
members that override or implement nothing with real documentation.
Documentation-only — no behavior change; solution builds clean.
