docs(mqtt): P1 plain-MQTT milestone live-verified; endpoint recorded

Task 14 — the P1 milestone gate. Ran the live /run verification on a docker-dev
rig against the real Mosquitto TLS+auth fixture, and recorded the result.

The gate did its job: it found MQTT was unauthorable in production.

  RawDriverTypeDialog's driver-type list is a hand-maintained array that nobody
  added MQTT to, so the /raw "New driver" picker never offered it — with every
  other layer (contracts, driver, browser, factory, host registration, typed tag
  editor) complete and 266 green unit tests. Nothing tied that array to
  DriverTypeNames and AdminUI has no bUnit, so no offline test could see it.
  Fixed, plus RawDriverTypeDialogParityTests: a reflection parity guard that
  fails for ANY DriverTypeNames entry missing from the picker. Verified
  falsifiable — RED with "…cannot be authored from the /raw New-driver picker,
  so they are unreachable in production: Mqtt" before the one-line fix.

A second gap is left OPEN and documented, not fixed (no task ever covered it):
MqttDriverForm / MqttDeviceForm do not exist, and DriverConfigModal/DeviceModal
have no raw-JSON fallback — so an operator can create an MQTT driver but cannot
author its broker endpoint or credentials. P1 is not operator-complete until
those two razor forms land. The gate authored config via SQL to get past it.

Live gate result (isolated 2-node MAIN stack, image built from this branch,
fixture at 10.100.0.35:8883, AllowUntrustedServerCertificate rather than
pinning the CA into the rig):

  - typed MQTT tag editor renders and round-trips; Json shows the JSON-path
    field, Raw/Scalar hide it; wildcard topic a/+/c blocked at save; data-type
    list offers Float64 and no Double; qos/retainSeed absent on "(driver
    default)" and qos:2 written as a number; isHistorized/historianTagname
    survive a topic-only edit; SparkplugB renders the P2 placeholder and
    switching back keeps Plain values; jsonPath is guidance not a gate in all
    three shapes ($ seeded only for a brand-new blank tag, blank stays absent,
    clearing saves fine)
  - deployed, and both editor-written blobs resolved and served changing live
    values through OPC UA (22.8 / 1629, StatusCode Good) — no BadNodeIdUnknown
  - the bespoke #-observation browser drove a real broker session and rendered
    the fixture's actual topic tree (line1/{counter,state,temperature},
    noise/chatter, retained/seed); a Modbus device's picker still correctly
    reports "Browsing unavailable"

Also found live and documented (not a code change): both nodes of a redundant
pair run the driver, so a FIXED clientId makes them evict each other forever —
the broker logs "already connected, closing old connection" and both nodes
reconnect every ~2s while still reporting Healthy. Unset (the default) is
correct; confirmed 0 reconnects/60s on both nodes after removing it.

Suites: offline 1134 passed / 0 failed (266 Driver.Mqtt + 730 AdminUI incl. the
3 new guards + 138 Core.Abstractions); live 7/7 against the fixture.

Docs: new docs/drivers/Mqtt.md + Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md (the per-driver + fixture
convention every other driver follows), MQTT rows in docs/drivers/README.md,
TestConnectProbes.md, root README.md, and infra/README.md §3.

CLAUDE.md drift corrected while adding the MQTT endpoints:
  - the "every fixture carries project: lmxopcua" claim was false — only the
    MQTT fixture does; the filter returns one stack, not the fleet
  - lmxopcua-fix.ps1 is Windows-VM-only; on macOS drive the host over ssh/rsync
    (and the docker-dev rig itself runs locally under OrbStack)

# MQTT test fixture
Coverage map + gap inventory for the MQTT driver's harness.
**TL;DR:** the unit suite (266 tests) carries the mapping, indexing and failure-classification logic;
the live suite (7 tests) proves the parts only a real broker can prove — TLS, real authentication, CA
pinning in both directions, retained-message seeding, and that a rejected CONNACK is actually
surfaced. Sparkplug B has **no fixture at all** — it is unimplemented (P2).
## What the fixture is
`eclipse-mosquitto:2.0.22` plus a second container of the same image running `publisher/publish.sh`
(the image ships `mosquitto_pub`, so no bespoke image is needed). Compose lives at
`tests/Drivers/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Mqtt.IntegrationTests/Docker/`; the deployed stack is
`/opt/otopcua-mqtt` on the shared Docker host.
**Two authenticated listeners, no anonymous fallback** (`allow_anonymous false`) — deliberate: an
anonymous broker would let a broken auth config pass every test.
| Listener | Endpoint | Env var |
|---|---|---|
| TLS + auth | `10.100.0.35:8883` | `MQTT_FIXTURE_ENDPOINT` |
| plaintext + auth | `10.100.0.35:1883` | `MQTT_FIXTURE_PLAIN_ENDPOINT` |
`MqttFixture` gates the suite on `MQTT_FIXTURE_ENDPOINT` / `MQTT_FIXTURE_USERNAME` /
`MQTT_FIXTURE_PASSWORD` (+ `MQTT_FIXTURE_CA_CERT`, `MQTT_FIXTURE_TOPIC_PREFIX`) and **skips cleanly**
when they are absent, so the suite is safe to run offline.
**Unlike every other fixture it needs generated material first**`./gen-fixture-material.sh` writes
the gitignored `secrets/` (password file, CA, server cert/key). The broker will not start without it.
Bring-up and the CA-fetch recipe are in [`infra/README.md`](../../infra/README.md) §3.
### Published topics
| Topic | Shape | Retain | Why it exists |
|---|---|---|---|
| `otopcua/fixture/retained/seed` | `{"value":42.5,…}` | ✅ **published exactly once** | The only way to prove retained *seeding*. On a republished topic a retained seed is indistinguishable from a fast live publish |
| `otopcua/fixture/line1/temperature` | `{"value":…,"unit":"C","seq":n}` | ✅ | JSON + JSONPath extraction |
| `otopcua/fixture/line1/counter` | `{"value":n}` | ✅ | Monotonic, for ordering |
| `otopcua/fixture/line1/state` | `RUNNING` (bare text) | ✅ | Non-JSON `Raw`/`Scalar` payloads |
| `otopcua/fixture/noise/chatter` | JSON | ❌ | **Never authored as a tag** — a broker carrying unauthored traffic is the normal case and the driver must stay silent about it |
## What it actually covers
The 7 live tests: TLS+auth connect; connect pinned to the fixture CA; connect pinned to a *foreign*
CA is **rejected** (the falsifiability control — a pinning test that only ever passes proves nothing);
wrong password is rejected **and surfaced** (the MQTTnet-5 silent-`Healthy` defect); plain
subscribe→value under a RawPath; retained message seeds a value on subscribe; and an unauthored topic
stays silent while an authored tag keeps flowing.
Live-gated end-to-end (2026-07-24, P1 milestone): deployed on the docker-dev rig against this fixture,
both tags resolved and served changing values through OPC UA, and the AdminUI `#`-observation picker
rendered the real topic tree.
## What it does NOT cover
### 1. Sparkplug B — entirely
No edge-node simulator exists. Birth/alias/seq-gap/rebirth/death are P2 (Tasks 1526) and the
project-owned C# simulator is part of that work.
### 2. Broker-side failure injection
No test kills the broker mid-session, partitions the network, or forces a SUBACK failure against a
real broker. Reconnect, backoff and per-topic degradation are **unit-proven only**.
### 3. Wildcard tags against a live broker
The by-filter indexing fix that keeps wildcard tags alive across a reconnect is covered by unit tests;
no live test authors a `+`/`#` tag and bounces the connection.
### 4. QoS 2 delivery semantics
The fixture publishes at QoS 0/1. QoS 2's exactly-once handshake is never exercised end-to-end.
### 5. Scale
One publisher, five topics, a ~2 s cadence. Nothing probes the 50 000-node browse cap, the 1 MiB
payload cap, or thousands of authored tags.
### 6. Redundant-pair client-id collision
Found by hand during the P1 gate (a fixed `clientId` makes pair nodes evict each other), **not** by a
test. No automated coverage asserts that two concurrent drivers coexist.
## When to trust the MQTT fixture, when to reach for a real broker
| Question | Fixture answers it? |
|---|---|
| Does TLS + auth work, and does bad auth fail loudly? | ✅ yes |
| Is a retained message seeded on subscribe? | ✅ yes |
| Does JSONPath extraction + coercion behave? | ✅ yes (unit + live) |
| Does the driver ignore unauthored traffic? | ✅ yes |
| Does it survive a broker restart / flapping link? | ❌ unit-only |
| Does it hold up at plant tag counts? | ❌ no |
| Anything Sparkplug B | ❌ not implemented |
## Follow-up candidates
1. Broker-restart / SUBACK-failure live tests (closes gap 2).
2. A live wildcard-across-reconnect test (closes gap 3).
3. A concurrent-two-driver test pinning the client-id hazard (closes gap 6).
4. The Sparkplug edge-node simulator + its rebirth/seq-gap/death matrix (P2).

# MQTT Driver
In-process MQTT **broker-subscribe** driver. It holds one MQTTnet 5 client against one broker,
subscribes to the topics its authored tags name, and forwards each PUBLISH straight to
`ISubscribable.OnDataChange`. Ingest is **push, not poll**, and **one-way** — there is no `IWritable`.
Sparkplug B is **P2** and not implemented: `mode: SparkplugB` is a placeholder everywhere it appears.
See [Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md](Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md) for the harness and
[`../plans/2026-07-15-mqtt-sparkplug-driver-design.md`](../plans/2026-07-15-mqtt-sparkplug-driver-design.md)
for the design.
## Project Layout
| Project | Holds |
|---|---|
| `Driver.Mqtt.Contracts` | Config records, enums, `MqttTagDefinition` + the pure `MqttTagDefinitionFactory`, and the one shared `MqttJson.Options`. **Deliberately transport-free** — no MQTTnet reference |
| `Driver.Mqtt` | Runtime: `MqttDriver`, `MqttConnection` (connect + reconnect supervisor), `MqttSubscriptionManager`, `LastValueCache`, factory registration, `MqttDriverProbe` |
| `Driver.Mqtt.Browser` | `MqttDriverBrowser` + `MqttBrowseSession` — the AdminUI address picker's `#`-observation session |
> `.Browser` references `.Driver` (not just `.Contracts`) — a **documented, deliberate exception**
> so browse can reuse `MqttConnection.BuildClientOptions` (TLS / CA-pin / credentials / protocol
> mapping). Its cost is pulling `Core` into the AdminUI graph. The csproj carries a boxed warning;
> do not copy the pattern into a new driver's browser. The clean fix (deferred) is a leaf
> `Driver.Mqtt.Transport` project.
## Capability Surface
```csharp
public sealed class MqttDriver
: IDriver, ITagDiscovery, ISubscribable, IReadable, IHostConnectivityProbe, IRediscoverable, IAsyncDisposable, IDisposable
```
| Capability | Entry point | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `IDriver` | `InitializeAsync` / `ReinitializeAsync` / `ShutdownAsync` / `GetHealth` | Order **register → attach → connect** is contractual. `ReinitializeAsync` applies a tag-only delta in place, and rebuilds the session when the broker identity changed |
| `ITagDiscovery` | `DiscoverAsync` | Replays **only the authored `rawTags`** into an `Mqtt` folder. `SupportsOnlineDiscovery => false`, `RediscoverPolicy => Once`*a broker's live topic set is not a tag catalogue* |
| `ISubscribable` | `SubscribeAsync` / `OnDataChange` | One SUBSCRIBE per distinct authored topic. **`publishingInterval` is ignored** — MQTT is push-based; this driver neither polls nor throttles |
| `IReadable` | `ReadAsync` | Serves the last received/retained value from `LastValueCache`; never throws. A never-seen tag reads `BadWaitingForInitialData` |
| `IHostConnectivityProbe` | `GetHostStatuses` | 1-second poll of `MqttConnection.State`; `HostName` is `"{host}:{port}"` |
| `IRediscoverable` | `OnRediscoveryNeeded` | **Seam only** — nothing raises it in Plain mode. Sparkplug DBIRTH will |
**Not implemented:** `IWritable`, `IPerCallHostResolver`, `IAlarmSource`, `IHistoryProvider`.
Materialized nodes are `SecurityClassification.ViewOnly`, `IsAlarm: false`, `IsHistorized: false`
*"MQTT ingest is one-way in P1 … ViewOnly rather than an Operate node whose writes would silently vanish."*
Driver-type string: **`Mqtt`** (`DriverTypeNames.Mqtt`).
## Configuration
Bound through `MqttJson.Options`**case-insensitive**, enums by **name**, unknown members skipped.
Author the connection on the **device** (`DeviceConfig`) and the mode on the **driver**
(`DriverConfig`); `DriverDeviceConfigMerger` merges them, and injects `rawTags`.
```jsonc
// DriverConfig
{ "Mode": "Plain", "Plain": { "TopicPrefix": "", "DefaultQos": 1 } }
// DeviceConfig
{
"Host": "10.100.0.35",
"Port": 8883,
"UseTls": true,
"Username": "otopcua",
"Password": "", // supply via ${secret:} / env — never commit
"CaCertificatePath": null // pins the chain; null = OS trust store
}
```
Every key has a default, so nothing is strictly required by the binder. Notable ones:
`port` **8883**, `useTls` **true**, `protocolVersion` **V500**, `cleanSession` **true**,
`keepAliveSeconds` **30**, `connectTimeoutSeconds` **15**,
`reconnectMinBackoffSeconds` **1** / `reconnectMaxBackoffSeconds` **30**,
`maxPayloadBytes` **1 MiB**, `allowUntrustedServerCertificate` **false**.
> ⚠️ **Leave `clientId` unset on a redundant pair.** Both nodes of a pair run the driver. MQTT
> requires client ids to be unique per broker, so a *fixed* `clientId` makes the two nodes evict each
> other forever — the broker logs `Client <id> already connected, closing old connection` and both
> nodes reconnect every few seconds while still reporting `Healthy`. Unset (the default) lets MQTTnet
> generate a unique id per connection, which is correct. This was observed live during the P1 gate.
> (The probe and browser already self-uniquify with `-probe-` / `-browse-` suffixes.)
## Tag Configuration
| Key | Type | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `topic` | string | — | **Required.** Absent/blank rejects the tag ⇒ `BadNodeIdUnknown` |
| `payloadFormat` | `Json` \| `Raw` \| `Scalar` | `Json` | **Strict** — a typo'd value rejects the tag |
| `jsonPath` | string | `"$"` | Absent *or empty* ⇒ document root. `Json` only |
| `dataType` | `DriverDataType` | `String` | **Strict.** `Float64`, not `Double` — see below |
| `qos` | int 02 | driver's `defaultQos` | **Strict** — a malformed value rejects rather than silently weakening delivery |
| `retainSeed` | bool | `true` | Seed this tag from the broker's retained message on subscribe |
There is **no `mode` key** — the AdminUI's "Tag shape" selector is UI-only, inferred from the blob and
never serialized.
**`dataType` uses `DriverDataType`, which has `Float64` and has no `Double`.** Authoring `"Double"` is
a strict-enum rejection, not a fallback.
Payload handling: `Json` selects via JSONPath then coerces (miss ⇒ `BadDecodingError`, coerce fail ⇒
`BadTypeMismatch`); `Raw` returns the payload's UTF-8 text verbatim and **ignores `dataType`**;
`Scalar` decodes then coerces. The JSONPath subset is `$`, `$.a.b`, `$['a']`, `$.a[0]` — **no
filters, slices, wildcards or recursive descent**.
### Wildcards
The **runtime accepts** a `+`/`#` topic (it is ambiguous, not unparseable) and the deploy-time
`Inspect` pass **warns**. The **AdminUI editor rejects** it outright — the one place the editor is
deliberately stricter than the driver, because one Tag holds one value and a wildcard would feed it
from many source topics. Wildcard tags are indexed **by filter**, not by concrete topic, so they
survive a reconnect; a message fans out to *every* matching tag, and unauthored topics are dropped.
## Connection + Failure Semantics
`MqttConnectionState`: `Disconnected → Connected → Reconnecting → Faulted → Disposed`.
A broker that is merely down stays **`Reconnecting` indefinitely** — unreachable is never a fault.
Backoff is exponential between the two `reconnectBackoff` bounds.
**MQTTnet 5 does not throw on a rejected CONNACK** — it returns the code and leaves the client
disconnected. Left unhandled, a wrong password produced a `Healthy` driver that never received a
value. `MqttConnection` therefore raises `MqttConnectRejectedException`:
- **Unrecoverable ⇒ `Faulted`, supervisor stops** (retrying cannot help): `MalformedPacket`,
`ProtocolError`, `UnsupportedProtocolVersion`, `ClientIdentifierNotValid`, `BadUserNameOrPassword`,
`NotAuthorized`, `Banned`, `BadAuthenticationMethod`, `TopicNameInvalid`, `PacketTooLarge`,
`PayloadFormatInvalid`, `RetainNotSupported`, `QoSNotSupported`, `ServerMoved`.
- **Everything else is transient** and keeps retrying — including `UnspecifiedError` and any future
code. (`ServerMoved` is permanent, `UseAnotherServer` is temporary — per the MQTT 5 spec.)
A reconnect that completes without re-subscribing would be a healthy-looking connection that receives
nothing forever, so `OnReconnectedAsync` **throws** when zero filters are granted, tearing the session
down rather than swallowing it. A SUBACK failure degrades just the affected RawPaths to
`BadCommunicationError`.
## Browse
`MqttDriverBrowser` opens a **read-only observation session**: it subscribes at QoS 0 to `#` (or
`{topicPrefix}/#`) under a `-browse-`-suffixed client id and builds a `/`-segment tree from whatever
publishes. **Nothing is ever published.** It is *inherently incomplete* — a topic that stays silent
during the window is invisible — so manual entry remains the escape hatch.
Bounds: 50 000 nodes (then `⚠ Observation truncated`), 1024-char topics / 256-char segments (then
`⚠ Some topics were too long`), 512-byte payload inspection. Sessions are reaped after 2 minutes idle.
`SparkplugB` browse throws `NotSupportedException`.
The bespoke browser wins over the universal `DiscoveryDriverBrowser`, which would decline MQTT anyway
(`SupportsOnlineDiscovery` is `false`).
## Test Connect
`MqttDriverProbe` performs **one CONNECT** (no SUBSCRIBE, no publish) under a `-probe-` client id and
disconnects. Success message: `"MQTT CONNECT OK"`. A rejected CONNACK is described by the same
`DescribeConnackRejection` the running driver uses, so the button and the driver report a rejection in
identical words. See [TestConnectProbes.md](TestConnectProbes.md).
## Testing
- **Unit** — `tests/Drivers/…Driver.Mqtt.Tests` (266 tests): tag-config mapping, JSONPath subset,
strict-enum rejection, subscription indexing (incl. the wildcard-by-filter case), reconnect/rebuild
branches, CONNACK classification.
- **Live (env-gated)** — `tests/Drivers/…Driver.Mqtt.IntegrationTests` (7 tests) against the Mosquitto
fixture; skips cleanly when `MQTT_FIXTURE_ENDPOINT` is unset. See
[Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md](Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md) and `infra/README.md` §3.
## Operational Notes
- **Read-only.** No writes reach the broker; every node is ViewOnly.
- **No alarms, no driver-side history.** Historization is a server-side concern (`isHistorized`).
- **Both pair nodes subscribe independently** — MQTT fan-out is per-connection, and the Primary gate
applies downstream, not to ingest.
- **Unauthored traffic is ignored.** A busy broker is normal; the driver never auto-provisions a tag.

### MQTT / Sparkplug B — 📝 Plan ready
### MQTT / Sparkplug B — ✅ P1 done (live-gated) · 📝 P2 plan ready
- **Design:** [`2026-07-15-mqtt-sparkplug-driver-design.md`](2026-07-15-mqtt-sparkplug-driver-design.md)
- **Implementation plan:** [`2026-07-24-mqtt-sparkplug-driver.md`](2026-07-24-mqtt-sparkplug-driver.md) · [`.tasks.json`](2026-07-24-mqtt-sparkplug-driver.md.tasks.json) — **27 tasks** (P1 plain MQTT = Tasks 014, a complete shippable milestone; P2 Sparkplug B = Tasks 1526). Task 0 is the mandatory MQTTnet-5/net10 + central-pinning validation spike.
- **Scope:** P1 plain MQTT (MQTTnet-5 connect/TLS/auth + hand-rolled reconnect, subscribe→
`OnDataChange`, retained last-value read, `#`-observation browser); P2 Sparkplug B ingest
(vendored Tahu proto, birth/alias/seq-gap/rebirth state machine, death→STALE).
- **Fixture:** Mosquitto/EMQX broker (TLS + real auth, not anonymous) + a **project-owned C#
Sparkplug edge-node simulator** for the rebirth/seq-gap/death test matrix + env-gated live suite
(`MQTT_FIXTURE_ENDPOINT`).
- **Effort:** ML. **Top risks:** Sparkplug state-machine correctness; MQTTnet-5/net10 + the repo's
fragile central pinning (mitigated by hand-rolling Tahu over one MQTTnet-5 client).
- **Fixture:** Mosquitto TLS+auth broker + JSON publisher sidecar, **live** at `10.100.0.35:8883`
(`:1883` plaintext-but-authenticated); stack `/opt/otopcua-mqtt`, compose in
`tests/Drivers/…​.Driver.Mqtt.IntegrationTests/Docker/`. Env-gated live suite
(`MQTT_FIXTURE_ENDPOINT`, see `infra/README.md` §3). The **C# Sparkplug edge-node simulator** is P2
work and does not exist yet.
- **P1 status (2026-07-24):** Tasks 014 complete. `.Contracts`/`.Driver`/`.Browser` triad + factory,
`DriverTypeNames.Mqtt`, host factory/probe registration, AdminUI typed tag editor + bespoke
`#`-observation browser. **Offline 1131 passed / 0 failed** (266 driver · 727 AdminUI · 138
Core.Abstractions); **live 7/7** against the fixture.
- **P1 live gate found two AdminUI authoring gaps** (the gate's whole point — both were invisible to
266 green unit tests, because AdminUI has no bUnit and nothing tied these hand-maintained lists to
`DriverTypeNames`):
1. **FIXED —** `RawDriverTypeDialog`'s option array never got an MQTT row, so **no operator could
create an MQTT driver at all**. Fixed, plus a reflection parity guard
(`RawDriverTypeDialogParityTests`, 3 tests) that fails for *any* future `DriverTypeNames` entry
missing from the picker — so the next driver fails a test instead of a live gate.
2. **OPEN — `MqttDriverForm` / `MqttDeviceForm` do not exist.** `DriverConfigModal` and
`DeviceModal` dispatch on `DriverType` and fall through to *"No typed config form for driver
type Mqtt"* — and **neither modal has a raw-JSON fallback**, unlike the `/uns` TagModal. So an
operator can create an MQTT driver but cannot author its broker host/port/TLS/credentials
through the AdminUI at all. The P1 gate authored `DriverConfig`/`DeviceConfig` by direct SQL to
get past this. **P1 is not operator-complete until these two razor forms land** (a
`MqttDriverForm` + `MqttDeviceForm` pair modelled on the OpcUaClient ones, plus their
serialization tests). This is a plan omission, not a regression: no task ever covered the
driver/device forms — Task 6's "typed editor" was the *tag* editor.
- **Redundant-pair hazard worth knowing (documented, not a code change):** both nodes of a pair run
the driver, so a **fixed `clientId` makes them evict each other forever** — the broker logs
`already connected, closing old connection` and both nodes reconnect every ~2 s while still
reporting `Healthy`. Leaving `clientId` unset (the default) is correct. Observed live; captured in
`docs/drivers/Mqtt.md`. A future `MqttDriverForm` should not offer a free-text client id without
this warning.
- **Effort:** ML. **Top risks (P2):** Sparkplug state-machine correctness; MQTTnet-5/net10 + the repo's
fragile central pinning (mitigated by hand-rolling Tahu over one MQTTnet-5 client) — the pinning risk
is **retired**: P1 shipped on MQTTnet 5 with the repo's central pinning intact.
