Joseph Doherty 1da770253e refactor(sql): dialect-owned parameter markers, bind names and command configuration
ISqlDialect gains ParameterMarker (the token in the SQL text), ParameterBindName
(the DbParameter.ParameterName) and ConfigureCommand (per-command provider setup,
where Oracle will set BindByName). SQL Server and the test SQLite dialect answer
"@"+name for both spellings and no-op the hook, so SQL Server behaviour is
byte-identical — every existing expected-SQL assertion passes untouched.

SqlGroupPlanner drops its hardcoded @k/@w consts and mints base names (k0..kN, w)
that the dialect spells; SqlQueryPlan carries the emitted markers AND the matching
bind names, so SqlPollReader keeps copying the plan's pairing rather than
re-deriving a provider convention (the two diverge on ODP.NET: ":k0" in the text,
bare "k0" on the parameter). SqlCatalogLoader and SqlBrowseSession bind
schema/table through the dialect, so their bind names cannot drift from the
markers in the dialect-owned catalog SQL. Every parameter-carrying command site
calls ConfigureCommand before its first parameter.

Controlled by a new test-only ColonMarkerDialect (":name" markers, bare bind
names) that really executes against the SQLite fixture. Each leg was falsified
against the pre-change behaviour: the planner emitted "@k0", the reader bound
":k0", and a hardcoded "@schema" in the loader failed catalog load outright.

Joseph Doherty 8af5742406 docs(raw): live /run gate PASSED for the raw-modal picker live config; records Gitea #539
All three legs pass against the patched AbCip fixture: the edit modal and the
manual-entry grid both browse the live nine-tag symbol table, and an unreachable
device degrades to the graceful error chip while the modal still saves.

The gate also found a defect unrelated to this change and filed it as #539: the
AbCip discovery path (LibplctagTagEnumerator, LibplctagTemplateReader) passes
libplctag the bare host, so an authored non-default EtherNet/IP port is dropped
and the browse reaches whatever answers on 44818 — #534's defect surviving in the
discovery half. Discovered because the first negative-leg endpoint differed from
the fixture only by port, which never reached the wire.

Joseph Doherty d88e42b8c4 merge: raw modals feed pickers the live merged device config (#468 follow-up closed)
The last dangling #468 item: RawTagModal / RawManualTagEntryModal passed a
'{}' stub as GetDriverConfigJson, so the AbCip/TwinCAT/FOCAS pickers'
'Browse controller' captured against no endpoint. Both now resolve the
merged Driver+Device config per open and forward a live accessor; review
found and fixed a stale-open race (a superseded open could install another
device's config). 8 new component-class tests; AdminUI suite 1064/1064.
RawBrowseModal's identical race shape deferred to deferment.md §0.1.
Live /run gate pending (rig + fixture staged).

Joseph Doherty 3b9009da47 docs(drivers): tracker catches up with the #468 gate closure; design for the last dangling follow-up
The tracking doc and program-design §9 still showed Wave 0's live gate open —
it closed 2026-08-01 (c2c3c522). Both now record Waves 0-2 complete.

New design doc for the one residual item: the raw modals' typed tag editors
pass a '{}' stub as GetDriverConfigJson, so the AbCip/TwinCAT/FOCAS pickers'
Browse button captures against no endpoint and can never succeed. Decision:
wire the merged Driver+Device config through (the RawBrowseModal/Test-connect
seam already exists), not hide the button.

Joseph Doherty 3c6607d734 docs(deferment): reconcile the register with reality — the tracker is empty
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m19s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 15m39s
The register said "14 issues remain open" and recorded #491 as an open live
gate with "no gate-passed commit exists". Both were false: the tracker has
been at 0 open since 2026-08-04, and #491's gate passed that morning after
finding a production-fatal defect the "code complete" reading had missed.

Re-derived every count from its source of truth rather than from this file:
the Gitea API (0 open; closure dates for all 14), a parse of every
docs/plans/*.tasks.json (31 open tasks across 6 files), and a listing of
code-reviews/ (10 unreviewed projects, 3 retained Wonderware modules).

That surfaced three things reading the file could not:

- §6.2 was missing a live plan file that §5 lists as an open gate, so the
  two sections disagreed on whether the work existed.
- §5 cited that file at a date that does not exist in docs/plans/.
- The gate's stated blocker has expired — it needed an operator sign-in,
  and docker-dev has since disabled AdminUI login, so it is runnable now.

Also records a correction rather than a status flip: archreview 03/S4
("primary gate default-allows on unknown role") is the same shape as a
decision deliberately taken in PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldRecordHistorizedValues,
where an unknown role captures. Defensible there, not in a write gate — so
closing 03/S4 must not generalise one rule across both.

Third round running in which this file's own bookkeeping was what broke,
after the dangling pre-amend SHAs and the truncation. The trailer now says
so, and says to re-derive rather than re-read.

Joseph Doherty 4bdce91002 docs(historian): live gate for #537 and #538 — both PASSED
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m29s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 17m6s
Ran on the docker-dev central pair against the local HistorianGateway container talking to the real
AVEVA Historian on wonder-sql-vd03 (VPN up), with the host image rebuilt at e7fbe977.

Two things about the setup matter more than the results:

The value source had to be DRIVEN. Both the project Modbus fixture and oee-modbus-sim hold static
registers, and a static source produces no dependency-mux fan-out at all — the recorder captures
once at deploy and then goes quiet, which reads exactly like a broken recorder. Hand-written
Modbus FC6 writes put the value stream under the gate's control, which is what makes the rate
measurements below mean anything. The project fixture was also brought back up on the docker host
and MAIN-modbus-dev repointed to it, undoing the temporary :1502 repoint the read-back leg made.

The poison tag is the real shape, not a synthetic fault: GATE491-B's historianTagname was CHANGED
on an EXISTING tag, which Issue 5 guarantees is never provisioned, so its writes fail permanently
against a historian that has no such tag. That is how #538 was reached in the first place.

#537 — both nodes up: the Secondary logged the suppression line once and its outbox file froze
while the Primary's kept growing; 6 value changes x 2 tags gave WriteLiveValues{ok} +12 exactly,
where the pre-fix measurement was twice that. Failover: stopping the Primary made the survivor log
"now the recording Primary ... resuming value capture" and pick up every subsequent change. Return:
the restarted node was demoted, logged suppression, and the rate stayed at one node.

#538 — the quarantine fired with the tag named; 5 value changes over 30s gave ok +5 and error +5,
exactly one write per tag per change against a 2s drain interval.

The decisive leg is the IDLE one: 40s with no value changes left both counters unchanged and the
outbox byte size flat. The driven-rate legs only show a rate that happens to look right; a pre-fix
build re-writes its queued healthy entries on every drain pass whether or not anything new arrives,
so its counters climb during a quiet window with no input at all. Flat counters over idle is the
observation the bug cannot produce.

Incidental finding, recorded against Issue 5 rather than treated as a fix: a node RESTART cures an
unprovisioned tag. central-2's boot logged provisioning (dispatched=2, requested=2, ensured=2,
failed=0) and the poison tag started succeeding, because a full address-space rebuild treats every
historized tag as added and re-runs EnsureTags — where the incremental deploy that introduced the
renamed tag did not. So an operator who restarts a node while diagnosing "my tag isn't historizing"
makes the symptom disappear without learning the cause.

Docs only; no production code changed.

Joseph Doherty e7fbe97759 fix(historian): gate historization capture on the Primary, quarantine a poison tag (#537, #538)
Both defects were found by #491's live gate against a real HistorianGateway and filed rather than
fixed at the time, because each one's fix is a design decision rather than a patch.

#537 — both nodes of a redundant pair captured every value, so the historian received duplicate
live samples for every historized tag (measured: the gateway's write counter advanced twice per
value and halved when one central was stopped).

The recorder now reads a capture gate per value, fed from the new
PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldRecordHistorizedValues through IHistorizationRoleView — a third verdict on
the same RedundancyRoleView object, registered unconditionally on driver nodes rather than
alongside the alarm section's IRedundancyRoleView (which only exists when that section is enabled;
piggybacking is the #511 registration accident).

Two things are deliberate and easy to get backwards:

  * It gates the CAPTURE, not the drain — the opposite of the alarm sink. That queue is in LocalDb
    and replicates, so the Secondary already holds the Primary's rows. The historization outbox is
    a node-local FasterLog replicating to nobody, so a drain-only gate would leave the standby
    appending forever to a queue no one empties: unbounded disk, then a flood of stale duplicates
    the moment it is promoted. Entries a node already captured are still drained by that node.

  * The peer it stands down for must RECORD THE SAME REFS, not merely hold the same rows — a
    Primary in this node's own per-cluster mesh. A node carrying no cluster-scoped role cannot
    establish that and never stands down: under a fleet-wide election the elected Primary is
    usually running a different cluster's configuration, and deferring to it would end this
    cluster's historization silently, with the drain reporting success on an empty outbox forever.
    That is the scope mismatch that once suspended the alarm drain on every node of the rig.

An unknown role captures, matching the alarm drain — a duplicate sample is recoverable, a hole in
the trend is not.

#538 — the drain writes every per-tag group and then acks all-or-nothing (deliberate: RemoveAsync
truncates THROUGH an id, so partial acking could drop older unwritten entries). One permanently
failing tag therefore pinned the FIFO head while every healthy tag in the batch was re-submitted
to the historian on every pass, indefinitely — duplicate samples and an outbox that never
truncated, observed live at 8.3 MB from a single unprovisionable tag.

The drain now tracks consecutive failures per historian tag and abandons that tag's entries once
it exceeds MaxWriteAttempts (new, default 5), so the head advances. The counter only advances on a
pass where some OTHER tag wrote successfully: that is what separates "this tag is poison" from
"the backend is down". A count-only quarantine looks identical on the poison-tag case and silently
discards the whole backlog during an ordinary gateway restart, turning a duplicate-samples bug
into a lost-history one. Abandonment is also deferred until every failing tag is over budget, so
nothing is discarded on a pass that could not have advanced the head anyway. Each abandonment logs
a Warning naming the tag; the total rides RecorderStatus.AbandonedEntries.

Capacity also gains a non-zero default (500,000 entries) as the disk backstop for the one case the
quarantine deliberately cannot resolve — a historian refusing every write, where retaining is
correct. Set 0 to restore unbounded retention.

Every new test was falsified by reverting the production change it guards, and each one reddens
alone:

  * drop the backend-reachable evidence -> only A_backend_that_fails_every_tag_abandons_nothing
  * never abandon -> only A_permanently_failing_tag_is_abandoned_so_healthy_tags_stop_being_rewritten
  * latch the capture gate at construction -> only The_capture_gate_is_re_read_per_value...
  * treat any Primary as a scope peer -> only the two scope-mismatch cases

Full suite green. (Four OpcUaClient.Browser failures during the run were the opc-plc fixture being
down on the shared Docker host; brought it back up and they pass.)

Joseph Doherty e77ea4aa73 docs(historian): close #491 — read-back and EnsureTags proven against wonder-sql-vd03
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m11s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 14m17s
The 2026-08-01 run closed every leg except read-back, which no reachable historian could
serve that day (the LAN instance accepts writes but serves no reads under a licence tag-count
violation; the licensed one needed the VPN). With the VPN up the run was repeated against
wonder-sql-vd03 and the remaining legs pass:

- EnsureTags provisioning: ensured=2, failed=0 — the path the LAN box could not exercise at
  all (it is RemoteGrpc-only and that CAP was not listening).
- Read-back: two Modbus registers carrying DISTINCT NON-ZERO constants were historized, and
  each read back as its own value (HR20 -> 8224, HR3 -> 120, quality 192). A first attempt
  read back 0, which proves nothing — the same trap #536 recorded, so the proof was rebuilt
  on values a crossed or fabricated answer could not fake.

Found during the run and FILED rather than fixed:

- #538 — one permanently-failing tag re-writes every healthy tag on every drain pass, forever.
  DrainOnceAsync writes EVERY per-tag group and then acks all-or-nothing, so a tag whose
  historian tag does not exist stops the FIFO head advancing while the healthy tags' values
  are re-submitted every drain interval; the outbox never truncates (Capacity defaults to 0 =
  unbounded, observed at 8.3 MB). The all-or-nothing ack is deliberate — RemoveAsync truncates
  THROUGH an id, so partial acking could drop older unwritten entries — so the fix changes the
  outbox contract and does not belong in this commit.

Also re-confirmed live: EnsureTags provisioning fires only for newly-ADDED historized tags, so
flipping an existing tag's historianTagname provisions nothing (Issue 5 of
2026-06-27-historian-gateway-integration-issues.md).

No production code changes — the recorder fix shipped in ad744734.

Joseph Doherty ad74473452 fix(historian): the recorder died on its first value — live gate for continuous historization (#491)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m54s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 16m42s
Ran #491's live gate against a real ZB.MOM.WW.HistorianGateway talking to a real AVEVA
Historian, and it found a production-fatal defect on the first value it ever saw.

ContinuousHistorizationRecorder.OnValueChangedAsync touched `Self` after awaiting
IHistorizationOutbox.AppendAsync(...).ConfigureAwait(false). ConfigureAwait(false) discards
Akka's ActorTaskScheduler synchronization context, so `Self` — which reads ActorBase.Context —
threw NotSupportedException. The throw escaped into supervision, which RESTARTED the actor;
because production seeds an EMPTY ref set (the deployed set arrives later via
UpdateHistorizedRefs), the restart silently discarded every historized ref. Net effect: one
value captured, then nothing, with no further error to show for it. Fixed by capturing
`IActorRef self = Self` before the await — the idiom the GetStatus handler already applied to
Sender.

Thirteen unit tests missed it because InMemoryOutbox.AppendAsync returned
ValueTask.CompletedTask: a completed ValueTask never yields, so the continuation ran inline
with the context still installed. The production FasterLog outbox fsyncs per entry and does
yield. The first regression test was itself vacuous — `await Task.Yield()` posts back to the
CAPTURED context, so the append still completed on the actor thread and reverting the fix left
the test green. The fake must complete on a POOL thread (Task.Delay(1).ConfigureAwait(false)),
as a real fsync does; with that, reverting the fix reddens exactly one test.

The rig could not run this gate at all: docker-dev carried ServerHistorian__* but no
ContinuousHistorization__* keys, so the recorder could never spawn. Both centrals now carry
them (default OFF — the recorder needs ContinuousHistorization:Enabled AND
ServerHistorian:Enabled), with the outbox on the per-node named volume so it survives a
container recreate. ServerHistorian__UseTls was hard-coded true and is now parameterized; a
plaintext h2c gateway was unreachable without it.

Gate results: outbox append, drain, WriteLiveValues accepted by a real historian, and restart
convergence (capture resumes after a restart with no new deployment) all pass. The read-back
hop is NOT proven — the LAN historian accepts writes but serves no reads under a "License
violation: Database tag count exceeds license tag count", and the licensed corporate one needs
the VPN. EnsureTags provisioning is likewise unexercised there (RemoteGrpc-only, and that CAP
is not listening). #491 stays open for the read-back hop alone.

Also recorded, not fixed: the recorder has NO Primary gate, unlike the alarm store-and-forward
sink, so both nodes of a redundant pair send duplicate live values. Gating it would introduce a
failover window with no capture — that is a design decision, not a cleanup.

Joseph Doherty 6b3da93151 fix(browse): commit the browsed data type, and fix the probe classification the fixture was hiding (#536)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m17s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 16m47s
A browse-committed AB CIP / TwinCAT / FOCAS tag bound with its model's DEFAULT
data type, not the one the device reported. A browsed REAL committed as
`{"tagPath":"Pump_1_Speed","dataType":"DInt"}` — and those three drivers decode
the wire bytes by that field, not by the raw row's OPC UA DataType — so the tag
read four bytes of a float through an integer decoder and published a plausible
wrong number with no error raised anywhere. FOCAS was missed when #536 was filed.

The type is CARRIED, not derived. Reverse-mapping the leaf's driver-agnostic
DriverDataType looks like the smaller fix and is wrong: SInt/Int/DInt/USInt/UInt
all collapse into Int32 on the way out of the driver, so that version would bind
a 16-bit INT as a 32-bit DINT while appearing to fix the REAL. Drivers now state
their own type name on DriverAttributeInfo.NativeDataType, which reaches the
picker as AttributeInfo.AddressFields["dataType"] and the commit mapper from
there. A leaf that states nothing keeps the model default — the pre-#536
behaviour, kept deliberately as the fallback rather than a guess.

Numeric strings are refused before parsing: Enum.TryParse accepts "9" for any
enum and Enum.IsDefined then confirms it, so an unguarded parse would bind a tag
to a type nobody named. A test caught this in the first version of the guard.

--- and the other half, which the fixture was hiding ---

Test Connect on a device with NO authored tags — every AB CIP device at the
moment an operator first presses the button — reported "CIP handshake failed"
against a healthy controller. That was written down as a fixture limitation
("ab_server doesn't implement @raw_cpu_type"). Both halves of that were wrong:

  * @raw_cpu_type is not a libplctag special tag at all (only @raw, @tags and
    @udt/ are), so it goes out as an ordinary symbolic name that no controller
    defines, and the controller's "tag does not exist" IS the successful answer.
  * ab_server answered an unresolvable tag path with CIP 0x03 where a Logix
    controller answers 0x04 — ErrorBadParam vs ErrorNotFound, which the probe
    classifies oppositely. Fixed in vendored patch 0002.
  * With the fixture then telling the truth, the real defect surfaced:
    AbCipDriverProbe.IsReachableException matched the native C status spellings
    ("STATUS_NOT_FOUND"), but libplctag.NET throws with the MANAGED enum name
    ("ErrorNotFound"). Those substrings can never match, so the reachable
    classification could not fire on the exception path — which is the path every
    no-authored-tags probe takes. This was failing on real hardware too, not just
    against the sim. It now recovers the Status and defers to IsReachableStatus,
    so there is one classification rather than two that can drift.

Rejected: switching the fallback to @tags. libplctag builds a tag-listing tag
with NO network I/O, so it reports OK against any TCP listener — measured green
against a Mosquitto broker.

Verification: full solution suite green. Falsification runs confirm exactly the
intended tests go red — 9 for the type carry, 3 (the reachable statuses only) for
the probe classification. Live on docker-dev: browse-committed TestString/
Motor_Run/TestSINT now store String/Bool/SInt, alongside last session's
Pump_1_Speed still holding the wrong DInt. TestSINT is the falsifier — its row
DataType is Int32, identical to TestDINT's, so no reverse map could have produced
"SInt".

Known consequence: pre-existing browse-committed tags keep their wrong dataType;
the fix applies to new commits only.

Joseph Doherty c2c3c52274 fix(abcip): unblock the controller-browse gate, and fix the decoder it exposed (#468)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m17s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 14m43s
The AbCip controller browse could never be verified end to end: libplctag's
ab_server answers CIP service 0x55 (Get Instance Attribute List) on the Symbol
Object class with "unsupported", so the `@tags` walk had no backend. #468's own
definition of done offered a sim that serves `@tags` as an alternative to real
hardware; this is that.

The fixture now applies a vendored patch teaching ab_server to serve the Symbol
Object listing, with partial-transfer paging. Correctness is checked against
libplctag's own `list_tags_logix` rather than against our decoder — our decoder
is the thing under test, so its agreement would prove nothing. The clone is also
pinned to a concrete tag: the Dockerfile called `--branch release` "pinned" while
tracking a branch that moves.

That immediately exposed a real defect. CipSymbolObjectDecoder advanced to an
even byte boundary after each symbol name, but entries are packed with no
padding — libplctag walks them by sizeof(entry) + string_len, and a captured
reply confirms it. Any odd-length name therefore desynchronised every entry
behind it, and odd-length names are ordinary. In the live browse below,
`Motor_Run` is 9 bytes and first on the wire, so the old decoder would have
shown that one tag and silently dropped the other eight.

Every existing multi-entry test passed throughout, because the test builder
padded exactly as the decoder did: the two agreed with each other and neither
agreed with a controller. The builder no longer pads, and the layout is pinned
by a captured reply (CipSymbolObjectWireCaptureTests) instead of by a second
statement of the assumption. Restoring the alignment step reddens exactly the
three new tests and none of the 29 others.

Live gate on docker-dev, all three of #468's criteria:
  - populated tree — all nine seeded tags render as leaves, in wire order
  - refresh re-captures
  - leaf commit — Pump_1_Speed + TestDINT saved with their CIP tag paths

The gate also surfaced two things it was not asked about: browse-commit drops
the discovered data type, so a browsed REAL commits as a DINT and the driver
decodes it as one (filed as #536), and Test Connect fails against this fixture
regardless of the device because it probes `@raw_cpu_type` (documented).

TwinCAT and FOCAS still have no browsable backend; #468's AbCip half is closed,
theirs is not.

Joseph Doherty 1a1dbc3f00 fix(uns): enforce the UNS segment rule on every authoring path (#535)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m30s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 16m11s
An area or line could be named "Packaging" or "Line 1", save cleanly, and then
fail the NEXT deployment with UnsSegmentInvalid. Because a deployment snapshots
the whole database, one badly-named area blocked EVERY cluster's deploy - and
whoever hit that was usually not whoever typed the name. Only the equipment form
carried the rule; the deploy gate held its own private copy.

The rule now lives once, on Configuration.Validation.UnsSegment, and both ends
call it. DraftValidator no longer restates it.

Enforced in UnsTreeService, not just on the forms:
- Create/Update Area, Line and Equipment reject an invalid name before touching
  the row.
- The CSV import reports a bad name as an ERROR, not a skip - a skip means "you
  already have this row", which would tell the operator the equipment exists
  when it does not. Good rows in the same batch still insert.

A form attribute could never have covered the import, and with no bUnit in this
repo a rule only a form enforces is also a rule no test can reach. The forms
keep an attribute for the immediate message, but it now references the shared
pattern rather than restating it - a second copy is how these drifted apart.

One behaviour change beyond the fix: UnsSegment.AttributePattern admits
"_default", which the equipment form's hand-written literal rejected. The form
was stricter than the gate it was mirroring, so a _default row was uneditable
through the AdminUI.

Tests: 41, falsified with three production mutations - dropping the CreateArea
guard reds exactly the CreateArea rejections, turning the import error back into
a skip reds only the import test, and narrowing AttributePattern reds only the
attribute/IsValid agreement. Every rejection is paired with a name that must
still be accepted, or a guard that refused everything would pass.

Live-verified on docker-dev: the area modal now refuses "Packaging" in place
with the rule spelled out, "packaging-b" saves, and a CSV import of two rows
reports Inserted 1 / Skipped 0 / Errors 1 naming the offending row - the path no
form attribute reaches. Rig cleaned up and a further deployment sealed.

Joseph Doherty 9303289d05 docs(plan): correct the self-form watchdog record — rejected, TCP guard was interim
Family-wide docs correction (paired with scadaproj 6d222ea4). This plan's superseded
banner was right but its task body still read as if the watchdog were merely patched.

- Dated 2026-08-01 correction section (history preserved): the timer calling
  Cluster.Join(SelfAddress) was implemented and REJECTED in both repos after live
  testing — outside Akka's join handshake, it fires mid-join on a routine standby
  restart (peer alive, join stalled behind stale-incarnation removal) and forms a
  permanent second cluster at the same address. ScadaBridge measured a split unhealed
  after 90s; Task 8 hit the same shape live here.
- The 'a booting node only self-forms when NO seed answers InitJoin' claim in the Task 2
  doc comment is marked FALSE for the watchdog: that guarantee belongs to Akka's native
  FirstSeedNodeProcess, which runs inside the handshake; the timer does not, and fires
  while a seed is answering.
- Task 8's TCP reachability guard is recorded as an INTERIM patch, not the fix — the
  race survived it, which is why the watchdog was deleted rather than patched.
- Shipped design restated: self-first seed ordering (AkkaClusterOptionsValidator +
  SelfFirstSeedBootstrapTests) plus the opt-in, default-OFF bootstrap guard (d1dac87f).

Source re-verified 2026-08-01: the defective watchdog is NOT present in this repo — no
ClusterBootstrapFallback.cs, no SelfFormAfter option, no Cluster.Join(SelfAddress) in
src/. Documentation-only change; no code touched.

Joseph Doherty a88cefd5ee docs(security): close the stage-7 gate's UNS gap — legs 12-15
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m51s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 15m25s
The first pass could not exercise UNS-realm scope selection because SITE-A had
no UNS. Authored one on docker-dev (area -> line -> equipment) and re-ran that
part: the picker's UNS column offers UnsArea/UnsLine/Equipment, selecting the
equipment resolves, and the grant deploys Sealed.

Leg 15 is the one worth keeping. Re-pointing the SITE-A grant at MAIN's
equipment is the only rejection whose id is REAL, so a check that asked only
"does a row with this id exist?" would accept it and confer authority across a
cluster boundary. The list page and the deploy gate both catch it and both name
the owning cluster.

Also found and filed (Gitea #535, not fixed here): the /uns area and line modals
do not validate the UNS segment format, so "Packaging" and "Line 1" saved
happily and then failed the deploy with UnsSegmentInvalid. Only the equipment
form carries the rule. A deployment snapshots the whole database, so one bad
area name blocks every cluster's deploy - the same authoring-vs-gate gap stage 7
just closed for NodeAcl rows.

Joseph Doherty d542ab5b7c feat(security): author ACL grants from the real tree, not free text (#520 stage 7)
The last stage of #520. Enforcement landed in stages 5-6; this closes the
authoring end, where a grant could be saved, deployed and sealed green while
resolving to nothing.

Scope kind and scope target are now chosen TOGETHER from a picker over the
cluster's raw and UNS trees (AclScopePickerModal -> AclScopeTree, backed by
IAclScopeService). They were previously an unrelated dropdown and a free-text
box, so "RawDevice + a TagId" was a well-formed row. Because the trees are
rooted at the grant's own cluster and each node supplies its own kind,
NodeAclScopeCrossCluster, NodeAclScopeIdUnexpected, NodeAclScopeIdMissing and
NodeAclScopeKindRetired all become unauthorable by construction.

CheckScopeAsync mirrors DraftValidator.ValidateNodeAclScopes rule for rule and
blocks the save when a scope resolves to nothing - re-checked on submit, not
trusted from form load, because a row whose entity was deleted since is exactly
where the operator never touches the picker. The list page marks such rows
unresolved with the reason. The principal field suggests known principals and
reports how many live keys reach the one typed; reaching nobody warns rather
than blocks, since authoring ahead of minting is legitimate.

Deliberate departures from the plan line, all recorded in the design doc:
- The banners are reshaped, not removed. "Not enforced" stopped being true at
  stage 6, but enforcement is still a per-node flag the AdminUI cannot see, so
  a narrow grant really does confer nothing on a default-configured node.
- A Cluster row produces a NULL ScopeId. The deploy gate rejects one that
  carries an id, so filling in the cluster id would author undeployable rows.
- AclScopeTree is a new component rather than a third mode on RawTree, which
  already carries the /raw editing tree and the equipment reference picker.
- UNS tags are not offered: a UNS signal is a UnsTagReference, and a Tag grant
  already covers the raw node and every UNS projection of it.

Also fixed: the ACL editor had a DataAnnotationsValidator and no
ValidationSummary, so an invalid NodeAclId made Create a silent no-op.

Tests: 30 in AdminUI.Tests/Acls, falsified with six production mutations -
each turned exactly the intended tests red and no others.

Live gate PASSED on docker-dev, 11 legs; both central containers asserted on
the same image by container id. The pair that matters is legs 8 and 11: the
page and the deploy gate reject the same row with the same reason. Legs 5 and
9 are the positive controls - without them the gate passes against a page that
refuses everything. Not covered: UNS-realm scope selection (SITE-A has no UNS
areas). Rig restored to zero ACL rows.

Joseph Doherty d4389f57a2 merge: node ACL enforcement on read, browse and subscribe (#520 stage 6)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m23s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 16m10s
Completes data-plane enforcement behind Security:Acl:Enabled (still default
false). Read — every attribute, not just Value — Browse, TranslateBrowsePath,
CreateMonitoredItems, SubscribeToEvents and SetMonitoringMode now consult scoped
NodeAcl grants. With the flag off nothing changes.

LIVE-GATED on docker-dev: site-a-1 with the flag on, central-1 on the same
artifact as the control. Revoking a grant stopped a running subscription
mid-stream — client told (0x801F0000), 25 seconds of silence, feed resumed by
itself on restore. Full transcript in the design doc.

Four decisions worth knowing:

- Browse needed ancestor visibility, or every grant narrower than the cluster is
  authored, shipped and unreachable — a client reaches a deep node by browsing
  the nodes above it, and the trie inherits downward only. It is a separate
  non-inheriting marker, NOT a synthesized Browse grant on each ancestor: the
  additive walk would carry such a grant onto every sibling subtree.

- Revocation had to reach LIVE subscriptions. Every other operation re-asks per
  request; a subscription is authorized once and streams, and streaming is how
  machine consumers read this server. A denied item is queued
  BadUserAccessDenied and then DETACHED from its fan-out, not set
  MonitoringMode.Disabled — disabling discards the queued notification, so the
  client would be silenced without being told why. Detaching is also reversible.

- The decision cache holds the grant WALK, not the decision. Grants are fixed
  for a generation; a key's expiry moves with the clock, so caching the whole
  decision would let an expired key work until the next deploy.

- TranslateBrowsePath is gated too, or a client refused a browse just asks
  TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds for the same path.

Three defects found and fixed en route, all the same shape — an `object`-typed
SDK parameter that the wrong cast reads as null, disabling a gate silently:
ContinuationPoint.NodeToBrowse is a NodeHandle (browse source gate), and
SubscribeToEvents' sourceId is too (event gate, which would have let an
ungranted session receive every alarm on an equipment whose values it was
refused). Also: UserAuthorizationState's staleness ceiling couples the
authorizer's clock to the evaluator's, and any divergence denies EVERYTHING with
a verdict indistinguishable from "no grant matched".

Consumer-visible: with the flag ON, a read-only consumer now needs a Read grant.
The umbrella index's previous claim that reads and subscriptions were ungated in
either mode no longer holds.

Full solution suite green.

Joseph Doherty c4f537a60c docs(security): record the stage 6 live gate — PASSED on docker-dev
site-a-1 (driver-only, no ConfigDb) with Security:Acl:Enabled=true; central-1
on the same artifact as the A/B control. 11 legs.

The two that only a live rig could settle, as a transcript:

  13:49:39  SiteAOnly = 53   (0x00000000)   streaming ~1/s
  13:49:40  SiteAOnly =      (0x801F0000)   revoking deploy lands; client TOLD
            … 25 seconds of silence, ~25 updates that never arrived …
  13:50:05  SiteAOnly = 157  (0x00000000)   restoring deploy; feed resumes

53 -> 157 across the gap: the device counter ran throughout, so delivery
stopped, not the source. The 0x801F0000 frame is exactly what the
MonitoringMode.Disabled implementation would have swallowed.

Also recorded: the leg that distinguishes working enforcement from a trie that
denies everything is resolvedScopes=1 in the install log, not any denial.

Stated plainly as NOT covered: a UNS-realm grant (the rig's SITE-A has no UNS
equipment) and alarm-command scoping (no alarms there). Both covered offline,
neither seen live.

Two rig facts worth keeping: :9200 round-robins central-1/central-2, and a
stale central-2 rejected the deploy outright because its image predated the
stage-3 scope kinds — image parity must be asserted per container, not assumed
from one build. And SITEA-modbus had an empty DriverConfig, so it ran as a stub
serving nothing; until that was fixed every read returned
BadWaitingForInitialData and no allow leg could be told from a denial.

Rig left as found.

Joseph Doherty 8cdbcb9823 fix(security): resolve the event-subscribe gate's source through IsHandleInNamespace
SubscribeToEvents' sourceId is the manager HANDLE, not a NodeState — the same
object-typed trap as ContinuationPoint.NodeToBrowse, found the same way. The
`sourceId as NodeState` cast compiled, always yielded null, and silently
disabled the gate: an ungranted session could subscribe to an equipment's event
notifier and receive every alarm it raises, including the condition fields,
while every value on it was refused.

Now uses the SDK's own IsHandleInNamespace, which cannot be wrong about the type.

The new test passes a null monitored item deliberately: the gate must deny
without touching the item, which also makes the test a discriminator rather than
a restatement — against the broken cast the call falls through to the base
implementation, which does dereference it, so the test fails loudly.

Joseph Doherty 00aa486677 feat(security): enforce node ACLs on read, browse and subscribe (#520 stage 6)
Completes data-plane enforcement behind Security:Acl:Enabled. Read (every
attribute, not just Value), Browse, TranslateBrowsePath, CreateMonitoredItems,
SubscribeToEvents and SetMonitoringMode now consult scoped NodeAcl grants.
With the flag off nothing changes.

Four things went beyond the stage as written, each because leaving it out
would have made the feature look like it worked:

- Browse needed ancestor visibility. The trie inherits downward, and a client
  reaches a deep node by browsing the nodes above it, so without this every
  grant narrower than the cluster was authored, shipped and unreachable. It is
  a separate non-inheriting marker, NOT a synthesized Browse grant on each
  ancestor: the additive downward walk would carry such a grant from Plant onto
  Plant/Siemens/dev9 and every other sibling subtree. Pinned by a test that
  goes through the evaluator — probing the trie helper directly passes against
  the broken design, because a sibling is absent from the trie either way.

- Revocation had to reach LIVE subscriptions. Every other operation re-asks per
  request; a subscription is authorized once and then streams, and streaming is
  how machine consumers actually read this server — so stopping only the
  re-asking operations would have made revocation close to cosmetic.
  IDataPlaneAuthoritySource gained a Changed event.

  A denied item is queued BadUserAccessDenied and then DETACHED from its
  MonitoredNode2 fan-out, not set MonitoringMode.Disabled. Disabling discards
  the item's queued notifications, so the client is silenced without ever being
  told why. The over-the-wire test caught this; the unit-level path reports the
  item as stood down either way. Detaching is also reversible, so a restored
  grant resumes the feed with no client action.

- The decision cache holds the grant WALK, not the decision. Grants and the
  trie are fixed for a generation; a key's ExpiresUtc passes with the clock, so
  caching the whole decision would let an expired key keep working until the
  next deploy — the stage-5 open-session hole in a subtler form.

- TranslateBrowsePath is gated, without which browse filtering is decorative: a
  client refused a browse asks TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds for the same path.

Found en route: UserAuthorizationState's staleness ceiling couples two clocks.
MembershipResolvedUtc is stamped from DataPlaneAuthorizer's TimeProvider while
IsStale is evaluated against TriePermissionEvaluator's; they are the same
instance in production and diverge the moment anything injects a test clock, at
which point the evaluator denies EVERYTHING with a verdict indistinguishable
from "no grant matched". Stage 5's claim that these predicates cannot fire was
accidentally true; they are now disabled explicitly.

Also fixed: ContinuationPoint.NodeToBrowse is the manager HANDLE, not a
NodeState. The declared type is object, so the wrong cast compiled cleanly and
silently yielded null — skipping the browse source gate entirely.

Falsified: disabling the transit marking reddens exactly the three tests that
assert transit works; implementing transit as an ancestor grant reddens the
sibling-leak test; skipping the fan-out detach reddens the revocation test.
Full solution suite green.

The stage 8 live gate has NOT run yet.

Joseph Doherty 1ccc74005a merge: node ACL enforcement on write, alarms and HistoryRead (#520 stage 5)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m37s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 15m44s
Behind Security:Acl:Enabled (default false), scoped NodeAcl grants now decide
writes, alarm commands and HistoryRead. HistoryRead had no authorization check
of any kind before this. Read, Browse and Subscribe stay ungated in both modes
(stage 6).

The ACL decision REPLACES the role check rather than chaining with it. Chained,
a grant would have to confer the server-wide role as well as pass the scope
check, and only Cluster-scoped grants confer a role — so every narrow grant
would stay inert and the flag would appear to do nothing. The consequence for
tests: a deny-only test is vacuous here because the role gate denies too, so the
load-bearing test is an allow — a roleless session writing on its grant alone.

Fixes a live defect found on the way in: the ACL principal never reached the
session. RoleCarryingUserIdentity derived DisplayName from the presented token,
which is the static username "apikey" for every key-bearing client, so the
trie's matching key was dropped at the identity boundary and every rejected
write audited as "apikey".

Beyond the stage as written:
- revocation now reaches an already-open session (both a revoked key and a
  removed grant), rather than persisting until the client chooses to reconnect
- UserAuthorizationState is built per call, not per session; its freshness
  predicates are LDAP-shaped and cannot fire under API keys, so they are
  documented as vestigial rather than left looking load-bearing
- the trie is built inside DataPlaneAuthorityState.Apply, not as a second
  wiring — an uninstalled trie denies everything, indistinguishable from working
  enforcement
- both IApiKeyStore implementations widened from Cluster-scoped grants to the
  full grant set; ApiKeyInterimRoleMapper still narrows, pinned by tests

The stage 8 live gate has NOT run — all verification is offline. Every failure
path denies, so a wiring mistake presents as a total outage of the three gated
operations rather than a subtle permission bug.

Joseph Doherty f692f6afe4 feat(security): enforce node ACLs on write, alarms and HistoryRead (#520 stage 5)
`Security:Acl:Enabled` (default false) makes scoped `NodeAcl` grants decide
data-plane authorization at the three seams that have one, and gives HistoryRead
a check it never had. Read, Browse and Subscribe stay ungated — stage 6.

The ACL decision REPLACES the server-wide role check rather than chaining with
it. Chained, a grant would have to confer the role as well as pass the scope
check, and only Cluster-scoped grants confer a role — so every narrow grant
would have stayed inert and the flag would have looked inert too. The
load-bearing test is an ALLOW: a session carrying no roles at all writing
successfully on the strength of its grant. A deny-only test passes against a
build where the ACL is never consulted, because the role gate denies too.

Found en route: the principal never reached the session. The authenticator
passed it as OpcUaUserAuthResult.DisplayName, but RoleCarryingUserIdentity
derives DisplayName from the presented token — for a key-bearing client that is
the static username `apikey`, identical fleet-wide. So the trie's matching key
was dropped at the identity boundary, and the audit ClientUserId on a rejected
write recorded `apikey` for every consuming system. Principal and ApiKeyId are
now carried explicitly.

Beyond the stage as sketched:

- Revocation reaches an OPEN session. Every decision re-checks the
  authenticating key against the current snapshot; without it a key revoked by a
  deployment kept its authority until the client chose to reconnect, which for a
  machine-to-machine consumer can be indefinitely.
- UserAuthorizationState is built per CALL, not per session. The per-session
  shape exists so an LDAP session can re-resolve membership that changed out of
  band; nothing can change out of band under API keys, so the generation stamp is
  the whole invalidation signal and a per-call record picks it up for free.
  IsStale/NeedsRefresh therefore cannot fire here and are documented as vestigial.
- The trie is built inside DataPlaneAuthorityState.Apply, under the same
  generation as the snapshot, rather than by a second wiring at the publish
  actor. An uninstalled trie denies everything — indistinguishable from working
  enforcement. Deleting the install turns 13 of the 22 new tests red.
- The deploy log reports what the BUILD dropped instead of re-deriving it. The
  old count agreed with the builder on one of its four drop reasons; a rule with
  a blank ScopeId, a retired scope kind, or a path not starting at a realm
  vanished with the log reading zero.

Both IApiKeyStore implementations widened to the full grant set. The narrowing
was redundant — ApiKeyInterimRoleMapper applies the same filter itself — and
became a trap once scope was enforced. Pinned by asserting the roles are
unchanged, with the two grants carrying different flags so it cannot pass by
accident.

Falsified by mutation: enforcement never engaging, the write seam ignoring the
ACL, the realm dropped from the scope, the revocation check removed, and the
trie never installed each turn the intended tests red and no others.

Full solution suite green.

v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 13m17s
Five commits, four Gitea issues closed.

#520 stage 3 — NodeScope becomes (ClusterId, Kind, Segments) with a variable-length
path, and AclScopePathResolver finally provides the scopePaths producer the trie
builder's required argument had never had. Closes two of the four documented
wire-up blockers: raw-realm nodes are now representable, and an unresolvable scope
is dropped with a diagnostic instead of planted where the walk cannot reach it.
Node ACLs remain unenforced — that is stages 5/6.

#532 — Cluster:Roles had no OTOPCUA_ROLES fallback despite two doc sites promising
one, so a node configured only through the env var joined the cluster with no Akka
roles: invisible to every role query, un-deployable, and silent about it. The field
fix on wonder-app-vd03 was a registry edit. Now applied once, in AddOtOpcUaCluster,
plus the four open-coded ClusterId derivations collapsed into RoleParser.

#533 — three string-identity rules in one authorization path, working only because
both sides held the same NodeAcl instances. One rule now: identifiers compare
OrdinalIgnoreCase, path segments compare Ordinal.

#534 — both libplctag drivers carried Port on their create-params and consumed it
nowhere, so libplctag substituted 44818 and the connection went to whatever answers
there. A production defect: on a plant network that is another PLC, read as Good.

Also fixed: three integration failures that had stopped catching what they guard —
a harness that stopped spawning the redundancy singleton after the Phase 6 re-home
(48s timeout, both nodes "role unknown"), a hand-written driver-type list that
could not see a driver registered without a probe, and an AbCip probe config still
in the retired v2 shape, exercising the fallback its own comment says it avoids.
The AbLegacy PCCC fixture was deployed for the first time, one port per family.

Joseph Doherty 01538464b7 fix(abcip,ablegacy): honour the authored EtherNet/IP port (#534)
Both libplctag drivers carried Port on their tag-create params and consumed it
nowhere. The runtimes set Tag.Gateway to the bare host, and libplctag does not
fail on a portless gateway — it substitutes 44818. So an authored port was not
ignored in the harmless sense; the connection was silently REDIRECTED to whatever
answers on the default port. On a plant network that is another PLC, and the
driver would read its tags and report them Good.

This is the root cause of #534's four AbLegacy integration failures, and the
explanation for every observation in that issue: with each PCCC family moved to
its own port (44819/44820/44821), the driver still dialled 44818 and kept talking
to the AB CIP fixture's ControlLogix container. Hence PCCC-against-ControlLogix
errors under every server-path / client-cip-path permutation — the permutations
were never reaching a PCCC server at all.

Established by a direct libplctag 1.5.2 probe outside the repo, which answered
#534's open question: PCCC works fine against ab_server for all three families,
with path="1,0" AND with path=null (only path="" throws ErrorBadData). Since the
library could reach the simulators and the driver could not, the difference had
to be in our Tag construction, and Gateway was the only field that differed.
Same probe confirmed libplctag accepts host:port in the gateway attribute, which
is what the fix emits.

AbCip has the identical defect and is fixed alongside. It has never been
observable there: every AbCip fixture profile binds 44818, so no test that driver
has could distinguish "uses the authored port" from "always uses 44818". A
fixture that only ever exercises the default value cannot falsify a rule about
non-default values, however many tests point at it.

The port is now emitted unconditionally rather than only when non-default, so the
value does not depend on libplctag's own default; a port <= 0 still falls back to
the bare host rather than producing "host:0".

The load-bearing guard is the AbLegacy integration suite, which addresses each
family on a non-default port and cannot pass unless the port is honoured — 4/4
green, having never once passed before. Unit tests in both drivers pin the
composition for machines with no fixtures. Falsified both ways: reverting the
runtime line reddens all 4 integration tests; dropping the port > 0 guard reddens
exactly the two fallback cases.

AbCip integration 10/13 (3 pre-existing skips), AbCip unit 345, AbLegacy unit 219.

Joseph Doherty b13bdc154a test(ablegacy): deploy the PCCC fixture, one port per family (#534)
The AbLegacy integration suite has never run against a simulator.
/opt/otopcua-ablegacy/ did not exist on the Docker host — the stack was written
but never deployed — and every ab_server across BOTH ab fixtures bound :44818.
So the AB CIP fixture's ControlLogix container (up for two weeks) answered this
suite's TCP reachability probe, the suite declined to skip, and it ran SLC500-mode
PCCC against a ControlLogix. Four failures that read as "fixture missing".

Two structural problems, both fixed here:

- The theory parameterises over all three PCCC families, but only one container
  could ever exist on the shared port, so at least two cases failed on every
  conceivable run. The suite was un-greenable by construction, and
  AB_LEGACY_COMPOSE_PROFILE existed to paper over it by filtering the theory
  down to whichever container happened to be up.
- A reachability probe that cannot tell one simulator from another is not a skip
  gate. It answered "is some ab_server listening", which is a different question
  from the one the caller is asking, and reported the difference as a test
  failure.

Each family now has its own host port — 44819 slc500, 44820 micrologix, 44821
plc5 — so all three run together and alongside AbCip on 44818 (ab_server still
listens on 44818 inside each container; only the host mapping differs). Skip is
per-family via SkipReasonFor(profile); the class-level gate runs if ANY family is
up so one down container cannot silently skip the other two.
AB_LEGACY_COMPOSE_PROFILE now applies only in AB_LEGACY_ENDPOINT-pinned
real-hardware mode, where the family genuinely is a property of the one device.
This finally makes true what the fixture's XML doc has claimed from the start —
that it and the AB CIP fixture can point at different containers simultaneously.

Deployed to /opt/otopcua-ablegacy/ on 10.100.0.35; all three containers running.

The 4 tests still FAIL, and are left red on purpose — see #534. Now aimed at
correct-family simulators, the PCCC exchange itself returns BadCommunicationError
for every server-path / client-cip-path permutation, reproduced outside the test
harness via the driver CLI. That is a true signal about the driver (or about
libplctag's PCCC support against ab_server) that skipping would hide. What
changed here is that the failure is now diagnostic instead of an artifact of a
port collision.

Joseph Doherty df340b8bba fix(tests): three real failures the integration suite had stopped catching
None of these were fixture absence. Each is a guard that went quietly wrong and
then reported the wrong thing.

PrimaryGateFailoverTests — per-cluster mesh Phase 6 (a2c5d57f) moved
RedundancyStateActor out of WithOtOpcUaControlPlaneSingletons into its own
cluster-role-scoped registration, made from Program.cs's DRIVER branch. The
harness models a fused admin,driver node but was never updated, so from that
commit onward NO node it built spawned the singleton: nothing published
redundancy-state, both nodes sat at "role unknown" forever, and the test polled
45s and timed out. The test's own summary calls this its negative control for a
broken redundancy-topic subscribe — it fired correctly, at the harness rather
than at production. Second time this shape has bitten the harness; the
AddOtOpcUaRuntime note a few lines up records the first.

DriverProbeRegistrationTests — the expected driver set was a hand-written array
kept in sync by comment, and it drifted when Sql (9b5a9687) and Mqtt (f79d13e2)
shipped. It failed as "12 where 10 expected", which names neither driver and
reads as if the probes were wrong. It also could not catch the direction that
matters: a driver type registered with no probe passed silently, because a
hand-written list only grows when someone remembers, and this test exists for
the case where nobody did. Now derived from DriverTypeNames.All, both
directions, plus an explicit case-drift test for the two types whose AdminUI key
differs in case from the constant (TwinCat/TwinCAT, Focas/FOCAS) — which the
derived tests cannot cover, since they compare the constants to themselves.

DriverProbeHandshakeE2eTests.AbCip_Green_AgainstSim — the probe config still used
the retired v2 `Tags: [{DeviceHostAddress, TagPath}]` shape, so
AbCipDriverOptions.RawTags bound empty, the probe fell through to its
@raw_cpu_type system-tag fallback, and ab_server answered ErrorBadParam. The test
has therefore spent the whole v3 migration exercising the one path its own
comment says it does not exercise. Rewritten to the v3 RawTags shape, and the
assertion tightened from ShouldContain("CIP session OK") to an exact match:
the probe's two green messages both contain that substring, so the loose form
would go green again the moment the config merely reached the controller,
whether or not the authored tag resolved.

Falsified each: drop the MTConnect probe (2 red, by name), remove the harness
singleton registration (back to the 48s "role unknown" timeout), break the
RawTags key (back to ErrorBadParam).

Host.IntegrationTests 211 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed, against live fixtures on
10.100.0.35.

Still red and NOT addressed here: the AbLegacy integration suite (4 tests). Its
fixture is genuinely down, but it hard-fails instead of skipping because the
AbCip ControlLogix container holds :44818 — the reachability guard cannot tell
"my ab_server" from "someone else's", so SkipReason stays null and SLC500-mode
PCCC runs against a ControlLogix. Needs either distinct fixture ports or a
family-aware guard; both are shared-infrastructure changes.

Joseph Doherty 06c56d7719 fix(cluster,acl): OTOPCUA_ROLES fallback + one string-identity rule (#532, #533)
Two independent defects surfaced in review of #520 stage 3.

#532 — Cluster:Roles had no OTOPCUA_ROLES fallback, despite two doc sites
promising one. A node configured only through the env var — which drives ALL of
Program.cs's conditional wiring, so it reads as the authoritative knob — bound an
empty Roles array and joined the cluster carrying no Akka roles at all. It ran,
served, and logged nothing wrong, while central reported "no driver-role nodes
are Up" and every deployment to it timed out. Not hypothetical: the field fix on
wonder-app-vd03 was to hand-add Cluster__Roles__0/1 to a Windows service's
registry environment. Anyone reading the code to diagnose that box would have
concluded from the XML doc that the fallback was already applied.

AddOtOpcUaCluster now post-configures AkkaClusterOptions through the shared
RoleParser.ResolveEffectiveRoles, so BuildClusterOptions (Akka's own member
roles), ClusterRoleInfo, the ControlPlane singleton scope and
ConfigDbApiKeyStore's ClusterId all see one answer. Two sibling validators
(ConfigSource, Telemetry) read Cluster:Roles directly and were exempting the
exact node they exist for — an env-only driver-only node has no ConfigDb and
could sit on ConfigSource:Mode=Direct unchallenged. They resolve the same way now.

Also collapsed the four open-coded `Roles.FirstOrDefault(IsClusterRole)` +
ClusterIdFromRole copies into RoleParser.ClusterIdFromRoles. They had drifted:
three classified the cluster role ordinally, so a verbatim-bound `Cluster-SITE-A`
yielded a null ClusterId — and a null ClusterId applies NO cluster filter, which
made #528's cross-cluster over-grant guard fail OPEN. IsClusterRole is now
case-insensitive; the ClusterId suffix keeps its authored spelling, because
normalizing it would silently rename the Akka role of a running deployment.

#533 — three string-identity rules in one authorization path. AclScopeRef used
default (ordinal) equality while the trie builder filtered ClusterId and hashed
principals OrdinalIgnoreCase; the deploy gate's cross-cluster check was ordinal
too, which was the worse half — it could reject a whole deploy over a ClusterId
case difference the runtime would have accepted. It only worked because resolver
and builder were handed the same NodeAcl instances.

The rule is now stated once, on AclScopeRef, and applied throughout:
identifiers (ScopeId, ClusterId, Principal) compare OrdinalIgnoreCase; path
segments compare Ordinal. AclScopePathResolver re-keys its own maps rather than
documenting a comparer contract for callers, so the two independent producers —
EF at the gate, artifact JSON on the node — cannot diverge from the outside.
PermissionTrieNode.Children stays Ordinal: those are browse names, and Speed /
speed are two nodes that can coexist under one device.

Split PermissionTrieBuildDiagnosticReason.RetiredScopeKind out of
UnresolvedScope. A legacy FolderSegment row and a typo'd id had the same message
and different remedies.

Falsified: five mutations, each reddening only its own guard — remove the
PostConfigure (3 tests), revert IsClusterRole to ordinal (3), revert AclScopeRef
equality (1), revert the resolver's map comparer (6), revert the gate's
comparisons (2), remove the FolderSegment short-circuit (1).

Test isolation: OTOPCUA_ROLES is process-global and xUnit runs classes in
parallel, so the three validator suites that now resolve effective roles share a
non-parallel collection. Without it, cases passing no roles would intermittently
observe another class's env var.

Full solution build clean; full suite green apart from two pre-existing failures
confirmed identical on 3a6b2a1d (PrimaryGateFailoverTests, and
DriverProbeRegistrationTests expecting 10 probe types where 12 now register)
plus the AbLegacy integration suite, which needs a docker fixture.

Joseph Doherty 3a6b2a1daf feat(acl): variable-depth scope model + the scopePaths producer (#520 stage 3)
Makes the /raw device tree addressable by an ACL rule, and builds the
scope-path producer PermissionTrieBuilder has accepted since it was written
but which had no caller anywhere.

The plan for this stage said "add NodeHierarchyKind.Raw, whose path is the
RawPath segments Folder/Driver/Device/TagGroup/Tag". That shape is wrong.
RawFolder.ParentRawFolderId and TagGroup.ParentTagGroupId are both
self-referencing, so folders and tag groups each nest without bound and a real
RawPath is folder…/Driver/Device/group…/Tag. NodeScope was fixed-arity and
PermissionTrie.CollectMatches was five hardcoded steps, so the scope model
could not address a real raw tree at all. NodeScope is now {ClusterId, Kind,
Segments} and the walk is a segment loop. The trie STRUCTURE was already
variable-depth (NodeAclPath.Segments is a list, Children is a recursive
dictionary), so only the walker and the scope record had to change.

Four decisions worth keeping:

- The namespace level became the realm. Level 1 gated on NodeScope.NamespaceId,
  but v3 has no Namespace entity — the snapshot was retired when the address
  space went dual-namespace, and the identifier appears nowhere in production
  outside NodeScope. So the level could only ever fail to match, which silently
  made every sub-cluster grant unreachable while cluster grants kept working.
  It is now a realm token derived from the scope's Kind, not carried on it, so
  the walk and the producer cannot disagree about its spelling.
- Provenance comes from the granting row's own ScopeKind, recorded on TrieGrant
  at build time. Depth-derived provenance could not name a raw level at all,
  since the depth of "Device" varies with folder nesting.
- The trie comparer moved from OrdinalIgnoreCase to Ordinal. Raw sibling-name
  uniqueness is ordinal, so Speed and speed can both exist under one device and
  a grant on either would have matched both.
- The null-scopePaths "deterministic test mode" is deleted. It planted
  unresolvable rows at a direct child of the trie root, a position the walker
  cannot reach, so the grant looked placed and could never match — and every
  test using that mode proved nothing about production placement. scopePaths is
  now required, and a row that does not resolve is dropped with a diagnostic.

A scope resolves to a LIST of paths: a raw tag projected into N equipments is
reachable at N+1 NodeIds and a write through any of them lands on the same
driver reference, so a Tag-scoped grant covering only the raw node would be
bypassable through a UNS one. The lookup is keyed on (ScopeKind, ScopeId), not
ScopeId alone — ScopeId has no FK and no type discriminator, so an id collision
across entity types would hand a grant the wrong node's paths.

Also closed here, all found by review rather than asked for:

- NodeAcl rows had no deploy-time validation of any kind and were not reachable
  from DraftValidator at all (DraftSnapshot carried no NodeAcls). They are now
  gated for dangling ids, cross-cluster scopes, blank/contradictory ScopeId, the
  retired FolderSegment kind, and undefined ordinals.
- ConfigDbApiKeyStore conferred roles from Cluster-scoped grants authored in ANY
  cluster, because it filtered on scope kind with no ClusterId predicate while
  ArtifactApiKeyStore read an already-cluster-filtered snapshot. On a fused
  admin+driver node that was a cross-cluster over-grant. Its doc comment claimed
  the two stores matched.
- The two AdminUI ACL banners still said enforcement was LDAP-group -> role
  mapping, which stages 1/2 made false in both directions.
- The /apikeys page was never classified in PageAuthorizationGuardTests, so that
  test has been red since the key-minting commit merged — I did not run
  AdminUI.Tests before merging stage 4.

Falsified rather than assumed: 8 mutations against the trie tests, 5 against the
deploy gate (including one proving a cross-cluster row is not silently
mis-diagnosed as unresolved), a staged red->green for the over-grant regression,
and the realm gate, the comparer and the malformed-path guard each broken
individually to confirm only their own tests go red.

Node ACLs are still not ENFORCED — nothing constructs a NodeScope or calls the
evaluator yet. That is stages 5 and 6; this stage makes the model able to
express what those will enforce.

Joseph Doherty fbe7403ca5 merge: API-key identity on the OPC UA data plane, keys+ACLs via the artifact (#520 stages 1-2, 4)
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m13s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 15m0s
Replaces LDAP with API keys on the OPC UA data plane and gets those keys to
driver-only nodes, which since per-cluster mesh Phase 4 have no ConfigDb and so
denied every UserName token.

A client now presents a UserName token with the fixed username `apikey` and an
`otua_<keyId>_<secret>` password; ApiKeyOpcUaUserAuthenticator resolves it to a
principal with one indexed lookup plus one peppered HMAC and no network I/O --
which matters because the SDK raises ImpersonateUser synchronously under a
SessionManager-wide lock. LdapOpcUaUserAuthenticator is deleted along with the
four Security:Ldap keys that existed only to bound an inline LDAP bind on that
path. LDAP remains, for AdminUI login only.

Anonymous is a normal grantable principal rather than a bypass branch:
OpcUa:AllowAnonymous (default true, preserving today's behaviour) controls
admission, and an admitted anonymous session arrives at the role gates as the
same RoleCarryingUserIdentity a key produces.

ConfigComposer snapshots the ApiKey rows -- the peppered HMAC only, never a
secret, and the pepper is node config deliberately absent from the artifact --
and DeploymentArtifact.ParseDataPlaneAuthority decodes them node-side alongside
the cluster's NodeAcl rows. The consequence is asymmetric revocation: immediate
on a ConfigDb node, next-deployment on a driver-only one. That is documented
rather than hidden.

Two decisions worth keeping:

- The auth generation is a node-local counter DRIVEN BY the RevisionHash, not
  derived from its bits. PermissionTrieCache treats the highest GenerationId as
  current, so a hash-derived generation would install a lower number about half
  the time and the cache would go on serving the previous deployment's ACLs with
  nothing logged.
- The artifact feed runs before OpcUaPublishActor's plan.IsEmpty early-return.
  An artifact that only revokes a key changes no nodes, so feeding after that
  return would leave a revoked key working until some unrelated structural change
  happened to redeploy.

Node ACLs are still NOT enforced per node -- a key's grants collapse into the
existing server-wide WriteOperate and AlarmAck gates, and only Cluster-scoped
grants count, because honouring a narrower grant's flags while unable to honour
its scope would turn "WriteOperate on Equipment X" into server-wide write
authority. Read, Browse, HistoryRead and CreateMonitoredItems remain ungated.
The AdminUI carries "not enforced" banners saying so; stages 3, 5 and 6 remove
them.

Live-gated on the six-node docker-dev rig, 6/6 legs against driver-only
site-a-1, including both halves of the revocation asymmetry and confirmation
that a SITE-A grant does not leak to SITE-B.

Joseph Doherty a438ac1640 feat(acl): keys + ACLs reach driver-only nodes via the artifact (#520 stage 4)
A driver-only node has had no ConfigDb since per-cluster mesh Phase 4, so it
registered NullOpcUaUserAuthenticator and denied every UserName token. Its keys
now ride the deployment artifact instead.

- ConfigComposer snapshots ApiKeys alongside the NodeAcls it already carried.
  Only the peppered HMAC ships, never a secret, and the pepper is node config
  that is deliberately not in the artifact.
- DeploymentArtifact.ParseDataPlaneAuthority decodes both node-side. Grants are
  scoped to the node's own cluster; keys are not, because ApiKey carries no
  ClusterId — a key is a fleet-wide credential and the ACL rows are what bind it.
- OpcUaPublishActor installs them on DataPlaneAuthorityState on every apply,
  BEFORE its plan.IsEmpty early-return: an artifact that only revokes a key
  produces an empty address-space plan, so feeding after that return would leave
  the revoked key working until an unrelated structural change redeployed.
- ArtifactApiKeyStore serves them to session activation; a node with a ConfigDb
  keeps ConfigDbApiKeyStore, whose per-request read is what makes revocation
  immediate there.
- OtOpcUaNodeManager gains DataPlaneAuthority — the cluster identity blocker #4
  named. NodeScope.ClusterId is required and the evaluator fails closed on a
  mismatch, so until now no scope it built could have evaluated. Nothing reads it
  until stages 5/6.

The generation is a node-local COUNTER driven by the RevisionHash, not derived
from its bits. PermissionTrieCache treats the highest GenerationId as current, so
a generation taken from hash bytes would install a lower number about half the
time and the cache would go on serving the previous deployment's ACLs, silently.

Sessions are not stamped with it yet — that belongs with the first seam that
reads a UserAuthorizationState, in stage 5, rather than being built now and
consulted by nothing.

Live-gated on docker-dev against site-a-1 (driver-only, no ConfigDb): key
authenticates, wrong secret denied, both halves of the revocation asymmetry
observed, and a SITE-A grant confirmed not to reach site-b-1. Key minted with an
independent Python HMAC so the verifier was checked against something other than
itself. Rig left clean.

Joseph Doherty c1771dc271 docs(acl): correct the API-key revocation warning after live verification (#520)
The /apikeys page claimed revocation "takes effect on a node only after the next
deployment". The live gate showed that is wrong for the node the operator is
most likely looking at: revoking through the UI denied the key on the VERY NEXT
request against the fused admin+driver node, because ConfigDbApiKeyStore reads
per request. The deployment delay applies only to driver-only nodes, whose keys
ride the artifact.

Reworded to say both, and to tell an operator to assume the slower behaviour when
revoking a compromised key — which is the decision the warning exists to inform.

Found by doing the thing rather than reasoning about it: the previous wording
looked obviously correct until the revoked key was actually re-presented.

Joseph Doherty 54b06aab33 test(acl): docker-dev pepper + live gate for the API-key identity path (#520)
Adds the Security__ApiKeys__Pepper anchor to docker-dev, merged into all six host
nodes — a driver node needs it to verify keys, an admin node to mint them, and a
mismatch is a silent authentication failure rather than a startup error.
Committed dev value under the same exception as the LDAP service account and the
deploy key.

Live gate on the rig (migrations applied, both central nodes rebuilt one at a
time to avoid the simultaneous-cold-start split):

- Migrator applied the rename + ApiKey migrations; NodeAcl.Principal exists,
  LdapGroup is gone, ApiKey created.
- sp_ComputeGenerationDiff EXECUTES and returns rows. Without the re-emit in the
  rename migration this call would have failed with Invalid column name, so the
  trap is confirmed closed rather than argued closed.
- A key whose hash was computed by an INDEPENDENT Python HMAC implementation
  authenticates against the C# verifier. That validates the hashing contract
  (otua_<keyId>_<secret>, peppered HMAC-SHA256, base64) far better than
  round-tripping my own code would.
- Wrong secret -> 0x80210000 BadIdentityTokenRejected.
- Key with a cluster-scoped WriteOperate grant -> log shows "granted key gate-key
  as principal gate-principal with roles [WriteOperate]" and the WRITE SUCCEEDS.
- Same node, anonymous -> "admitted with roles [none]", write denied
  0x801F0000 BadUserAccessDenied.
- D3's distinctive claim proven: adding a cluster-scoped WriteOperate row for
  principal 'anonymous' flips the SAME anonymous session to "admitted with roles
  [WriteOperate]" and its write succeeds. No code change, no restart.
- OpcUa__AllowAnonymous=false -> anonymous fails with "Endpoint does not support
  the user identity type provided", i.e. refused at DISCOVERY because the token
  policy is withheld, not merely rejected at activation; the keyed read still
  works, so the server is key-only rather than unreachable.

NOT verified: the /apikeys Razor page itself. The Chrome extension was not
connected, and this repo has no bUnit, so the page is exactly the kind of surface
that has bitten before (#505). The service beneath it is unit-tested and the
whole path below it is now live-proven, but the page needs a /run pass before
this can be called done.

Rig restored: override removed, gate key and both ACL rows deleted, anonymous
reads Good again.

Joseph Doherty 087a969ee6 feat(acl): API key minting — AdminUI page + admin service (#520)
Pulled forward from stage 7 because without it the feature is unusable and
un-live-gateable: there was no way to create a key short of hand-inserting a row
and computing an HMAC by hand.

The minting logic is an IApiKeyAdminService in Core.Authorization, NOT logic in
the Razor page — this repo has no bUnit, so anything only a page can reach is
untestable, and minting credentials is not where that belongs. The page is a thin
shell over it.

Moved to Core.Authorization so both ends can reach them: ApiKeyOptions (was in
Host) and OpcUaPrincipals (was in OpcUaServer.Security). The OPC UA server
resolves principals; the AdminUI must refuse to mint a key claiming a reserved
one. OpcUaServer already gained a Core reference in stage 1b, so no new edge —
AdminUI gains one.

ApiKeyOptions is now bound UNCONDITIONALLY rather than in the driver branch: a
driver node needs the pepper to VERIFY keys and an admin node needs it to MINT
them, and getting that wrong on either side is a silent authentication failure
rather than a startup error.

Validation rules, all covered: the reserved 'anonymous' principal is refused
case-insensitively (so "ANONYMOUS" cannot slip past into a distinct principal
that the evaluator would then match case-INsensitively against anonymous's
grants); blank name/principal; a principal longer than the column, rejected
rather than truncated, because silent truncation yields a key that authenticates
and is granted nothing with no visible cause; a past expiry. Generation runs
BEFORE the DbContext is opened so an unconfigured pepper surfaces as a clear
error instead of a stored row whose hash nothing can verify.

The page shows the plaintext ONCE and says so; it is held in component state and
written nowhere else, because the server keeps only a hash. Revocation is flagged
in the UI as taking effect only after the next deployment — driver-only nodes
have no ConfigDb, so keys ride the artifact.

FleetAdmin-only (Administrator), not ConfigEditor: this mints credentials.

Core.Tests 68 green.

Joseph Doherty dd939d3c97 feat(acl): anonymous becomes a normal grantable principal (#520 D3)
Anonymous sessions used to short-circuit in HandleImpersonation — "let the SDK's
default validation stand" — so they always connected and always carried no roles.
Now admission and authority are separated:

  admission  -> OpcUa:AllowAnonymous, the HOST's decision (it owns token policies)
  authority  -> the authenticator, resolving the reserved principal "anonymous"
                through the SAME grant path a key's principal goes through

So anonymous can be granted WRITE, not merely tolerated as read-only, and it
arrives at the downstream gates as the same RoleCarryingUserIdentity a key
produces — which is the real payoff: no gate carries an anonymous-shaped branch,
so there is no bypass path to get wrong.

AllowAnonymous defaults to TRUE on purpose. Defaulting it false would silently
deny every client without a key the moment this deploys, including ScadaBridge's
Data Connection Layer in another repo. Making keys mandatory is a rollout
decision, not an upgrade side effect. When false, the Anonymous token policy is
withheld so a client is refused at DISCOVERY rather than only at activation, and
activation is rejected independently in case a client attempts a token type the
endpoint never advertised.

Two fail-closed choices, both falsified:
- A failure to read anonymous's grants DENIES rather than admitting with no
  roles. Admitting is the pre-#520 behaviour, and defaulting to it exactly when
  the server cannot determine what anonymous may do stops being harmless once
  reads are gated. Making it admit reds Anonymous_denies_when_grants_cannot_be_read.
- A key may not authenticate as the reserved "anonymous" principal, or a
  credentialled client silently inherits whatever anonymous was granted.

AuthenticateAnonymousAsync is a DEFAULT interface implementation returning
admit-with-no-roles, i.e. exactly the pre-#520 behaviour, so
NullOpcUaUserAuthenticator and every test double keep working rather than being
forced to reimplement it — important because driver-only nodes run the Null one
and would otherwise black out. Note a default interface method is only reachable
through the interface-typed reference, which is how OpcUaApplicationHost holds it.

An existing test asserted the old fall-through and correctly went red; it is
rewritten to pin the new contract rather than deleted, with the reason recorded.

OpcUaServer 366, Host 42 green.

Joseph Doherty 65fda7237f refactor(acl): delete the LDAP data-plane authenticator and its tests (#520)
Stage 2b. LdapOpcUaUserAuthenticator was left registered nowhere by stage 2a;
this removes it, its three test files, and the config surface that existed only
to serve it.

Deleted: LdapOpcUaUserAuthenticator, LdapOpcUaUserAuthenticatorTests,
LdapAuthResilienceTests, LdapGlauthOutageLiveTests (19 tests).

Also removed four Security:Ldap keys — AuthTimeoutMs,
MaxConcurrentAuthentications, OutageFailureThreshold, OutageCooldownSeconds —
plus their validator rules and binding/validator test coverage. Verified first
that the ONLY consumers were the deleted class and the validator rules asserting
them; none appear in any checked-in appsettings. Leaving them would have created
exactly the dead-config surface #521/#524/#525 were filed to clear up.

Worth stating why that resilience machinery does not need relocating rather than
just deleting. It existed because the OPC UA SDK raises impersonation
SYNCHRONOUSLY under a SessionManager-wide event lock, so a hung LDAP bind there
serialized every session activation server-wide — Anonymous and X509 included.
Key verification is one indexed lookup plus one HMAC with no network I/O, so the
hazard the wall-clock bound, concurrency cap and outage circuit guarded against
no longer exists on that path. LDAP now runs only on AdminUI login, an ordinary
async request path where a slow directory affects the one request making it.

ConnectionTimeoutMs is RETAINED: it is projected into the shared library and is
not authenticator-specific.

Docs corrected rather than left to rot:
- CLAUDE.md's "LDAP Authentication" section described the deleted file as the
  data-plane authenticator. Rewritten, including a warning not to "restore" it on
  seeing the LDAP wiring that AdminUI legitimately still needs.
- infra/README §5b (the GLAuth outage live gate) marked RETIRED with the reason,
  rather than silently dropped — the harness GLAuth is still used by
  OTOPCUA_HARNESS_USE_LDAP=1 and is unaffected.
- docs/security.md's five-key resilience table cut to the one surviving key, and
  a new API-key identity section added.
Historical archreview/ records are left as-is; they are dated accounts.

Host.IntegrationTests 211 tests (was 230, i.e. exactly the 19 removed) with the
same 3 pre-existing failures verified against clean master. Host 37, Security 89.
