Closes WP1.2 of the arch-review remediation plan (finding #2, High):
SqliteAuditWriterOptions.DatabasePath defaulted to CWD-relative "auditlog.db",
which on the docker rig resolves onto the container's ephemeral overlayfs
(not the mounted /app/data volume), silently discarding the pending audit
forward-state backlog on every recreate; nothing in docker/ or docker-env2/
overrode it; FlushIntervalMs was validated but never read by the writer loop
(one commit per event even at trickle rate); and no PRAGMA synchronous was
set (SQLite's FULL default fsyncs every commit).
- DatabasePath now has no default (mirrors ZB.MOM.WW.LocalDb's LocalDbOptions.Path)
and is required pre-host for Site nodes only, via a new StartupValidator raw-config
check (top-level "AuditLog:SiteWriter:DatabasePath", NOT nested under ScadaBridge:
AddAuditLog binds that section off the configuration root). SqliteAuditWriterOptionsValidator
deliberately does NOT check DatabasePath itself, because AddAuditLog runs its
ValidateOnStart on both Central and Site composition roots but only Site nodes
ever resolve the writer — checking it there would fail Central's boot too.
- All 8 site-node appsettings under docker/ and docker-env2/ now set
AuditLog:SiteWriter:DatabasePath to /app/data/auditlog.db (mounted volume,
survives container recreate, same convention as LocalDb:Path); the local-dev
base appsettings.Site.json sets ./data/auditlog.db to match.
- The writer loop now honors FlushIntervalMs: after draining the immediately
available burst, it keeps the transaction open (bounded by FlushIntervalMs
from the first event) waiting for more trickle-rate events before committing,
instead of flushing (and fsyncing) per event.
- PRAGMA synchronous = NORMAL on the write connection — audit is best-effort by
design (CLAUDE.md: "Audit-write failure NEVER aborts the user-facing action"),
so NORMAL's narrower power-loss window is an acceptable trade for far fewer
fsyncs; WAL mode still guarantees no corruption.
- Tests: StartupValidator site-required/blank/central-exempt cases; writer
trickle-load single-transaction coalescing + beyond-interval separate-transaction
regression (new FlushCountForTests seam); options-validator doc updates reflecting
the moved responsibility. Full suite runs green: AuditLog.Tests 368/368,
Host.Tests 480/480.
One-time migration note: the existing container-local auditlog.db (wherever it
landed under CWD) is abandoned by this change, not migrated — already-forwarded
rows are safe centrally (AuditLog is the durable copy), and any still-Pending
rows on the abandoned path are lost once. This is the exact bug being fixed, not
a new loss: those rows were already living outside the mounted volume and would
not have survived the next container recreate regardless. Cross-reference
docs/known-issues/2026-07-20-cached-telemetry-drain-hot-loop.md, which this
placement bug caused.
The Secrets management UI (ZB.MOM.WW.Secrets Secrets.Ui, mounted at
/admin/secrets) has been linked from the NavMenu Admin section since the
Theme adoption, but no NavMenu test asserted it. Add bUnit coverage that
the item renders for an Administrator and is absent for a
Designer+Deployer principal, matching the existing role-gate test style.
The rig pointed at the shared 10.100.0.35 GLAuth whose serviceaccount password
was rotated (SEC-36), so central login had been failing ('Authentication service
is misconfigured') and a TEMP DisableLogin workaround was pending. Central nodes
now point at the local redundant pair (scadaproj/infra/glauth-redundant,
host.docker.internal:3893 + FallbackServers :3894), where the dev bind password
is correct — live-gated on the redeployed rig: login OK, primary-kill failover,
sticky preference (bind-count proven), walk-back on backup-kill.
AuthFlowTests factory bound as cn=admin for search-then-bind, but the current
directory grants the search capability only to serviceaccount (admin searches
return 50 Insufficient access) — stale since the GLAuth config evolved; the test
had been skipping on the closed port and failed once anything answered :3893.
Now binds as serviceaccount; AuthFlowTests 5/5 against the pair.
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.
Component-AuditLog.md has always required "we over-redact, never under-redact,
on configuration faults", but the body / SQL-parameter redactors violated it.
AuditRegexCache rejects a pattern that is malformed OR whose compile exceeds a
100 ms budget, caching the rejection for the process lifetime.
ScadaBridgeAuditRedactor then simply dropped the rejected pattern from its
redactor set and emitted the payload anyway — publishing precisely the values
the operator configured it to suppress, onto a row that looks entirely normal
downstream. Recovery required a process restart and the only signal was one
Warning line. The SQL path was worse: TryGetSqlParamRedactor returned a bare
false for both "no redactor configured for this connection" and "the configured
one will not compile", and CLAUDE.md records SQL parameter capture as on by
default.
Two changes:
1. Fail closed. A pattern that is CONFIGURED but unavailable now over-redacts
the whole payload and increments AuditRedactionFailure, reusing the existing
safety-net path. "Not configured at all" stays permissive — conflating those
two states is the actual defect, so both are pinned by tests.
2. Precompile off the hot path. The audit-log roadmap specifies patterns are
"precompiled at startup; rejected if compile takes >100ms"; the implementation
had drifted to compiling lazily on first event, which put a wall-clock budget
on a hot path under production load. RegexOptions.Compiled emits IL during
construction, so a busy node could blow the budget on a perfectly valid
pattern. Warm-up now runs at construction and on every options reload. The
residual window between a reload and its warm-up is safe because that path
now fails closed.
Warm-up deliberately does not fail the boot — an unusable pattern degrades the
node to over-redaction (safe, loud) rather than refusing to start. Reading
CurrentValue happens inside the warm-up try so an options provider that throws
still surfaces via Apply's over-redact path, not the constructor
(OuterCatch_OptionsThrows_NeverLeaks_AllSensitiveFieldsOverRedacted).
Also de-flakes GrpcCentralTransportTests.DeadlineExceeded_IsNotRetriedOnThePeer,
which is how this was found. It black-holed node A behind a 300 ms deadline, but
on a saturated machine the call could fail to even START — a genuinely-unsent
failure that IsConnectFailure correctly fails over on, so node B's ack arrived
instead of the expected Status.Failure. The test read as a flake while actually
reporting that its own premise had not held. Split in two: the hard rule now
injects an explicit DeadlineExceeded via a trailers-only response (deterministic,
load-independent), and a new BlackHoledNode_DoesNotHang covers the
deadline-is-actually-applied half with both nodes black-holed so no ack can
arrive down any path.
Verified: both fixes were confirmed to fail before they pass — reverting the
fail-closed guard fails exactly the 5 fail-closed tests while the 4 controls
still pass, and adding DeadlineExceeded to IsConnectFailure fails the rewritten
transport test. AuditLog 367/367, Host.Tests GrpcCentralTransport 8/8, solution
build clean. The previously-intermittent
Filter_PicksUp_NewBodyRedactor_OnConfigReload is green in a full sweep for the
first time.
Not addressed here, and noted on #35: the 100 ms wall-clock budget remains a
weak proxy for catastrophic backtracking (RegexOptions.Compiled defers JIT to
first match, so construction time measures the wrong thing), and a rejection is
still cached permanently. Both are now safe rather than dangerous, so they are
hardening rather than a leak.
0.6.x refuses a secret store whose path is relative or inside the content root,
because a store in the deployment directory is destroyed by an ordinary upgrade —
the failure that wiped the MxGateway API-key store on 2026-08-09 and read as an
auth outage rather than a deployment error.
The pin alone would not have protected this repo. Program.cs expands ${secret:}
before the host exists, composing secrets into a throwaway ServiceCollection with
no IHostEnvironment, so the guard would not run at the moment the migrator creates
the store. That composition now lives in SecretsRegistration with an explicit
content root — resolved to match what the host resolves later, including the
Windows-Service case where the pre-host CWD is still system32 — and is covered by
PreHostSecretsContentRootTests, verified by simulating the regression and
confirming it fails on the leftover file rather than on the exception.
The docker rig needed a fix too: /app/data is absolute but inside the container's
content root, so all 8 nodes would have failed to boot. Each node's data directory
is now mounted a second time at /data; same host directory, so existing stores
carry over untouched.
Verified: build clean, 29 test assemblies green (Playwright's 159 failures are the
pre-existing SEC-36 login baseline). Not yet deployed — the rig runs the old
config until someone redeploys.
Gating the detail modal/drawer on a held id rather than on the row resolving
(d14e0ee4) made it the surface's own job to clear that id when navigation
invalidates page-scoped state. ParkedMessages and ConfigurationAuditLog did not,
so paging away from an open row left the surface mounted on a notice it could
never recover from — reachable only by paging back.
The criterion is per-surface and comes down to whether the modal has content of
its own:
ParkedMessages, ConfigurationAuditLog — no keyed detail fetch; content resolves
from the loaded page alone. An entry paged out of view can never resolve again,
so these must clear on paging. They already cleared it on Search/OnSiteChanged
for the same reason, and clear _selectedIds on paging for the same reason
again; paging was simply missed.
NotificationReport, SiteCallsReport — fetch detail by id, so the modal still
shows real content after its row leaves the page. These deliberately do NOT
clear on paging and are unchanged.
Clearing on an explicit navigation action is user intent, not a resolve-driven
unmount, so this cannot reopen the handler-disposal race that d14e0ee4 closed.
PageScopedDetailStateTests covers all three paging entry points and records the
criterion so the next reader can tell why two surfaces clear and two do not. Run
against both clears reverted, all three fail; restored, all three pass.
CentralUI.Tests 994/994, solution build 0/0.
Also corrects two comments in ParkedMessages left stale by d14e0ee4 — they still
described the drawer as self-closing when a row stops resolving, which is the
behaviour that change deliberately removed.
The sweep's modal re-key (holding the row's id and re-resolving it, rather than
holding the record) also used that resolve as the modal's visibility gate. That
makes the modal's existence a function of list contents: any render where the
row is momentarily unresolvable unmounts the whole subtree and disposes every
event-handler id inside it, Close's included. A click already in flight against
a disposed handler makes the renderer throw GetRequiredEventBindingEntry during
DispatchEventAsync — which is how this surfaced, as an intermittent failure of
CloseButton_DismissesModal (989/990 on one run, green on re-run).
The record-held form made that structurally impossible: the modal existed
because the user opened it, and no list mutation could retract that. This
restores the property while keeping the re-key's actual benefit. Visibility now
gates on the held id; the resolve drives only content. An unresolvable row
degrades to an explicit notice and hides the row-scoped actions, while the frame
and Close stay mounted. Detail fetched by id still renders, so the user does not
lose the body they opened.
Applied to all four surfaces that shared the construction: NotificationReport,
ConfigurationAuditLog, ParkedMessages (offcanvas drawer) and SiteCallsReport.
Modal_StaysOpen_WhenItsRowLeavesThePage drops the opened row from the next query
and asserts the modal survives, keeps its fetched body, hides Retry/Discard, and
that Close still works. It was run against a deliberately restored defective
gate and failed there before passing here — a regression test that passes both
ways would be worthless against a race. 20 consecutive runs of the previously
flaky class: no failures. CentralUI.Tests 991/991, solution build 0/0.
The plan doc gains a section recording that the sweep was reported as
behaviour-preserving when it was not, and why the merge review missed it.
Applies the family-wide admin-UI cleanup playbook to the Central UI so the
Blazor surfaces stop diverging from the shared kit: buttons are grouped rather
than individually sized, long cell values are contained instead of widening
tables, and hard-coded colours give way to theme tokens.
The headline fix is that MainLayout passed Accent="#2f5fd0" to ThemeShell,
which the kit emits as an inline style on the shell root. Being a descendant of
<html>, it beat the [data-bs-theme="dark"] override for the entire app, so the
dark accent had never rendered. Declaring --accent in site.css :root instead
lets both schemes resolve; light is unchanged because the value already matched
the kit's light default.
Theme pins to 0.4.1, which upstreams the local .btn sizing block verbatim, so
that block is deleted here rather than duplicated. Verified byte-identical
before removal; the repo now declares no --bs-btn-* anywhere.
NOT purely cosmetic, contrary to the sweep's stated scope: four detail-modal
surfaces (NotificationReport, ConfigurationAuditLog, ParkedMessages,
SiteCallsReport) were additionally refactored from holding the selected record
to holding its id and re-resolving from the current page each render, with the
resolve doubling as the visibility gate. A background refresh that drops the
row now closes the modal instead of showing a stale snapshot. This is a
behaviour change and is called out rather than buried: a full-suite run turned
up one intermittent CentralUI failure, CloseButton_DismissesModal, whose stack
(GetRequiredEventBindingEntry during DispatchEventAsync) indicates the handler
was disposed between render and click — a window the previous field-held record
made structurally impossible. Treat the modal lifecycle here as unreviewed.
Build 0/0; suite green apart from that one intermittent failure.
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.

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.

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).
