Async cancellation hygiene, fire-and-forget observability, retry/shutdown
semantics, and audit-row coverage across 9 modules. Highlights:
Cancellation & lifecycle:
- AuditLog-006: SqliteAuditWriter.Dispose hops to thread pool, escaping the
captured SyncContext that risked sync-over-async deadlock.
- AuditLog-010: SiteAuditTelemetryActor owns a private lifecycle CTS,
threaded through drain paths instead of CancellationToken.None.
- Comm-019: CentralCommunicationActor adds lifecycle CTS for repo calls.
- Host-019: Migration StartupRetry forwards ApplicationStopping so SIGTERM
during the bounded-retry window aborts cleanly.
Cursor / retry / counter correctness:
- AuditLog-004: SiteAuditReconciliationActor's cursor now holds at `since`
when any row's idempotent insert is still being retried (per-EventId
retry counter, MaxPermanentInsertAttempts=5 escape valve with LogCritical
abandon). No more silent abandonment of permanently-failing rows.
- ConfigDB-019: Dropped the catch-and-continue on EnsureLookaheadAsync's
SPLIT loop — by class-doc construction the catch could only mask real
failures and let the next iteration create permanent partition holes.
- HM-017/018: HealthReportSender + CentralHealthReportLoop snapshot
per-interval counters before sending, restore via new
ISiteHealthCollector.AddIntervalCounters on transport failure so counts
aren't silently lost.
Fire-and-forget / shutdown waits:
- InboundAPI-018: AuditWriteMiddleware observes faulted audit-write tasks
via OnlyOnFaulted continuation (Warning log; response unchanged).
- SnF-024: StoreAndForwardService.StopAsync awaits in-flight retry sweep
with a bounded SweepShutdownWaitTimeout (10s).
Leak / refactor:
- Comm-021: SiteStreamGrpcServer.SubscribeInstance wraps Subscribe in its
own try/catch so a throw doesn't leak the relay actor or _activeStreams
entry.
- Comm-022: VERIFIED already-closed by Comm-016's dead-code purge.
- CLI-017: BundleCommands' three subcommands delegate to ExecuteCommandAsync
(auth-failure exit-code contract unified).
Defensive / validation:
- CLI-021: CliConfig.Load wraps file-read/JSON parse so malformed config
prints a warning and returns defaults instead of crashing the CLI.
- Host-022: ParseLevel emits stderr one-shot warning for unrecognised
MinimumLevel instead of silently coercing to Information.
- ESG-019: ExternalSystemClient sets HttpClient.Timeout=Infinite so the
per-call CTS is the sole timeout source (was clipped to 100s by .NET).
- Security-020: New SecurityOptionsValidator (IValidateOptions) rejects
empty LdapServer/LdapSearchBase with ValidateOnStart.
- DM-019: Lifecycle command timeouts now emit DisableTimedOut/EnableTimedOut/
DeleteTimedOut audit entries (mirrors DeployFailed pattern).
Plus reconciled stale per-module Open-findings counters that had drifted
from prior sessions.
20+ new regression tests across 11 test projects; build clean; affected
suites all green. README regenerated: 75 open (was 93).
Adds a new HiLo alarm trigger type with four configurable setpoints
(LoLo / Lo / Hi / HiHi). Each setpoint carries an optional priority,
deadband (for hysteresis), and operator message. The site runtime emits
AlarmStateChanged with an AlarmLevel field so consumers can differentiate
warning vs critical bands.
Plumbing:
- new AlarmLevel enum + AlarmStateChanged.Level/Message init properties
- AlarmTriggerEditor (Blazor) gets a HiLo render with severity tinting
- AlarmTriggerConfigCodec extracted from the editor for testability
- sitestream.proto carries level + message over gRPC
- SemanticValidator enforces numeric attribute, setpoint ordering,
non-negative deadband
- on-trigger scripts get an Alarm global (Name/Level/Priority/Message)
so notification routing can branch by severity
- per-instance InstanceAlarmOverride entity + EF migration + flattening
step + CLI commands; HiLo overrides merge setpoint-by-setpoint, binary
types whole-replace
- DebugView shows a Level badge + per-band message tooltip
- App.razor auto-reloads on permanent Blazor circuit failure
- docker/regen-proto.sh automates the proto regen workflow (the linux/arm64
protoc segfault means generated files are checked in for now)
Switch site host to WebApplicationBuilder with Kestrel HTTP/2 gRPC server,
add GrpcPort/keepalive config, wire SiteStreamManager as ISiteStreamSubscriber,
expose gRPC ports in docker-compose, add site seed script, update all 10
requirement docs + CLAUDE.md + README.md for the new dual-transport architecture.
After receiving the initial snapshot via ClusterClient, the bridge actor
now opens a gRPC server-streaming subscription via SiteStreamGrpcClient
for ongoing AttributeValueChanged/AlarmStateChanged events. Adds NodeA/
NodeB failover with max 3 retries, retry count reset on successful event,
and IWithTimers-based reconnect scheduling.
- DebugStreamBridgeActor: gRPC stream after snapshot, reconnect state machine
- DebugStreamService: inject SiteStreamGrpcClientFactory, resolve gRPC addresses
- ServiceCollectionExtensions: register SiteStreamGrpcClientFactory singleton
- SiteStreamGrpcClient: make SubscribeAsync/Unsubscribe virtual for testability
- SiteStreamGrpcClientFactory: make GetOrCreate virtual for testability
- New test suite: DebugStreamBridgeActorTests (8 tests)
Per-site gRPC client for central-side streaming subscriptions to site
servers. SiteStreamGrpcClient manages server-streaming calls with
keepalive, converts proto events to domain types, and supports
cancellation via Unsubscribe. SiteStreamGrpcClientFactory caches one
client per site identifier.
Includes InternalsVisibleTo for test access to conversion helpers and
comprehensive unit tests for event mapping, quality/alarm-state
conversion, unsubscribe behavior, and factory caching.
Proto3 definition with SiteStreamService (server streaming), Quality and
AlarmStateEnum enums with UNSPECIFIED=0, google.protobuf.Timestamp for
cross-platform timestamps. Pre-generated C# stubs checked in (no protoc
at build time). 10 roundtrip tests covering serialization, oneof
discrimination, and Timestamp<->DateTimeOffset conversion.
Define the SiteStreamService proto for real-time instance event
streaming (attribute value changes, alarm state changes) from site
nodes to central. Add pre-generated C# stubs following the existing
LmxProxy pattern, gRPC NuGet packages with FrameworkReference for
ASP.NET Core server types, and proto roundtrip tests.
