ClusterPrimaryHealthCheck was written three days' worth of debugging ago because
the shared ActiveNodeHealthCheck selected by RoleLeader and reported Healthy for
any node lacking the role. Health 0.3.0 fixes the shared check — oldest Up
member, role-preference scoping, Unhealthy when the node owns no active work —
so the private copy is now duplication rather than a workaround, and it is
deleted.
RolePreference [admin, driver] reproduces exactly what it did: a fused central
node answers for admin (where the singletons and the AdminUI are pinned), a
driver-only site node answers for driver.
SelectOldestUpMemberOfRole now delegates to the shared ClusterActiveNode instead
of re-implementing the age ordering. This is the point of the change rather than
a tidy-up: the redundancy snapshot drives the OPC UA ServiceLevel 250/240 split
while the health tier drives Traefik's admin routing, so two copies of "oldest Up
member of a role" would be two chances to advertise one node as authoritative
while gating the data plane on another. ControlPlane takes a ZB.MOM.WW.Health.Akka
reference for it; the layering trade-off is recorded at the PackageReference.
Behaviour note: a node carrying neither admin nor driver now answers 503 on the
active tier instead of 200. That case is reachable — RoleParser admits dev-only
and cluster-role-only nodes — and 503 is correct, since such a node owns no
active work and must not be in an active-tier pool. No docker-dev node is
affected: every rig node is admin+driver or driver-only.
Tests replaced in kind. The rule itself is now pinned in the library against a
real two-node cluster; what stays OtOpcUa's own decision is the wiring, so
ActiveTierRegistrationTests pins which check is on the active tag, that it is
registered on driver-only nodes too, and that it is not on the ready tier.
Verified: Host.Tests 25/25, ControlPlane redundancy 15/15.
Closes the remaining half of #494, and corrects the half fixed in 8dd9da7d.
The shared ActiveNodeHealthCheck(role: "admin") answered the wrong question twice
over. It returns Healthy for any node LACKING the role, so all four driver-only
site nodes called themselves active and no consumer could find the Primary of a
site Cluster. And it selects by RoleLeader - the lowest-ADDRESSED member - which
is not where Akka places singletons.
Replaced with ClusterPrimaryHealthCheck ("cluster-primary"). One rule: this node
is active iff it is the OLDEST Up member carrying its own active role, where the
active role is admin when the node has it and driver otherwise. That serves both
consumers correctly - a fused admin node answers for admin, so Traefik pins the
AdminUI to the node hosting the singletons; a driver-only site node answers for
driver, which is exactly SelectDriverPrimary, the same election behind
IsDriverPrimary and the OPC UA ServiceLevel 250/240 split. Per-mesh scoping is
free after Phase 6: ClusterState.Members already contains only this node's own
Cluster.
SelectDriverPrimary is generalised to SelectOldestUpMemberOfRole so the
age-ordering rule has one implementation. Two copies of "oldest Up member of a
role" would be two chances to silently disagree about who is in charge, and the
tier and the redundancy snapshot must never disagree.
THE ROLE-LEADER HALF MATTERED IN PRACTICE, not just in theory. On the rebuilt rig
the two orderings diverge right now:
akka leader (lowest address) = central-1
oldest admin member = central-2 <- hosts the singletons
8dd9da7d made the tier a real 503 but still selected by RoleLeader, so it would
have pinned Traefik to central-1 - the node NOT hosting the work. With this change
Traefik correctly routes to central-2.
Live-verified, exactly one 200 per mesh:
MAIN central-2 200 central-1 503 traefik: central-2 UP, central-1 DOWN
SITE-A site-a-1 200 site-a-2 503
SITE-B site-b-1 200 site-b-2 503
Tests: role-selection matrix and the startup-safe Degraded path in Host.Tests
(26 pass); parity between the tier's selector and the redundancy snapshot's, plus
role scoping, added to RedundancyPrimaryElectionTests, which forms a real two-node
cluster deliberately built so the oldest member is not the lowest-addressed one
(5 pass).
Closes the residual Phase-7 gap: when BOTH nodes of a 2-node pair cold-start at the
same instant, each self-first seed runs FirstSeedNodeProcess, times out waiting for
the other, and forms its own 1-node cluster — two Primaries in one pair (the Phase 6
live gate reproduced this reliably on docker). The prior mitigation was operational
(staggered start / compose depends_on), which does not exist on production hardware.
The guard (dark switch Cluster:BootstrapGuard:Enabled, default OFF) prevents the split
without giving up cold-start-alone:
- The lower-address node is the preferred founder: self-first, forms immediately.
- The higher node probes its partner's Akka port (TCP connect) up to PartnerProbeSeconds:
reachable => peer-first (join the founder, never race it); unreachable => self-first
(partner is dead, form alone). The order is decided BEFORE the single JoinSeedNodes,
from an explicit reachability signal — never re-formed mid-handshake (the retired
SelfFormAfter failure mode). When on, Akka gets no config seeds (BuildClusterOptions)
and ClusterBootstrapCoordinator drives the join.
Review-driven hardening: case-insensitive tie-break (a hostname-casing mismatch would
reopen the split); fail-fast validation of the timing knobs; the residual "founder dies
in the probe->join window" hang is documented and made operator-visible (warning + a
restart recovers). Real-ActorSystem coordinator tests cover the load-bearing higher-node
cold-start-alone case; 147/147 Cluster tests pass.
Live-gated on docker-dev (site-a = enablement demo, serialization removed, guard on;
site-b keeps depends_on-serialization + guard off as the A/B control): simultaneous
start -> site-a-1 founds, site-a-2 probes-reachable-joins -> 250/240, NO split;
higher-node-alone -> probes dead founder, self-forms -> 250; founder rejoin -> 240.

Phase 6 wired the re-homed redundancy singleton in Program.cs as
`WithOtOpcUaClusterRedundancySingleton(sp.GetRequiredService<IClusterRoleInfo>())`
inside the AddAkka configurator lambda. That lambda runs WHILE the ActorSystem is
being built, but ClusterRoleInfo depends on the ActorSystem (it is a live
Cluster.State view) — so resolving it there recurses into ActorSystem construction
and every node dies at boot with StackOverflowException. It compiles cleanly (a
runtime DI cycle) and RedundancyStateSingletonRehomeTests passed a hand-built
FakeClusterRoleInfo straight into the extension, mocking around the composition-root
line that overflows. The docker-dev live gate caught it on first boot.
Derive the singleton's cluster-role scope from AkkaClusterOptions (pure config, no
ActorSystem) instead: BuildClusterRedundancySingletonOptions / the extension now take
AkkaClusterOptions and compute Role = Roles.FirstOrDefault(IsClusterRole) ?? driver —
identical to ClusterRoleInfo.ClusterRole, which derives from the same config. Program.cs
passes IOptions<AkkaClusterOptions>.Value, which has no ActorSystem dependency.
Live-verified: rebuilt image boots with zero stack-overflow lines, cluster singletons
form per mesh. 5/5 rehome tests pass; Host builds clean.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Code review found SplitTopologyTransportValidator read the wrong role view,
defeating its fail-loud purpose two ways:
(a) Roles-source divergence. AkkaClusterOptions.Roles binds Cluster:Roles
but falls back to OTOPCUA_ROLES (RoleParser.Parse) when it is empty. A
node configured with only OTOPCUA_ROLES=driver,cluster-SITE-A genuinely
carries the cluster role in Akka, yet the validator saw no cluster role
and passed silently on MeshTransport:Mode=Dps (the documented incident).
(b) Case. The Cluster:Roles bind path is verbatim while RoleParser.Parse
lowercases the OTOPCUA_ROLES path; 'Cluster-SITE-A' / 'Driver' / 'Admin'
slipped past the ordinal checks.
Resolve effective roles the same way the node does — Cluster:Roles, else
RoleParser.Parse(env OTOPCUA_ROLES) exactly as Program.cs — then normalize
both (trim + ToLowerInvariant) before IsClusterRole/driver/admin. The message
still names the ClusterId in the operator's original spelling. Exemption and
all other behaviour unchanged. Contained to the validator.
Tests: OTOPCUA_ROLES-only cluster role on Dps fails; mixed-case roles on Dps
fail; cluster role with neither admin nor driver needs only ClusterClient;
Cluster:Roles wins over a stray OTOPCUA_ROLES. 16/16 green (124/124 project).

Per-cluster mesh Phase 6 (Task 5). A node carrying a cluster-{ClusterId}
role (RoleParser.IsClusterRole) is in the split topology, where the
Phase 2/3/5 DPS dark-switch branches deliver nothing across the mesh
boundary. SplitTopologyTransportValidator fails host start unless such a
node uses the mesh-crossing transports: MeshTransport:Mode=ClusterClient
always; Telemetry:Mode=Grpc if it has the driver role; TelemetryDial:Mode
=Grpc if it has the admin role. It is a no-op for any node with no
cluster-role (legacy / single-mesh / test). Roles + the three modes are
cross-read from IConfiguration, mirroring ConfigSourceOptionsValidator.
Registered via AddValidatedOptions on MeshTransportOptions with
ValidateOnStart, alongside the sibling validators.

Task 3 review: scoping only the rows/enabled DB queries by ClusterId left
the observed set (from Cluster.State.Members) filtered by the driver role
alone. In the mixed-mesh window — DB scoping live via a cluster role, but
the physical Akka mesh not yet split so central still sees foreign members
via gossip — a foreign-cluster driver member stays in observed while its row
is filtered out, hitting the RunningNodeHasNoRow branch, which logs at ERROR.
That traded the Warning-level false positive for a worse Error-level one.
Filter observed by the node's own cluster ROLE too. Extracted the projection
into a static FilterOwnClusterDriverMembers(members, ownClusterRole) so the
membership filter is unit-testable without seeding a live cluster (the actor
harness joins as admin only, so observed is always empty). Sourced at
registration from IClusterRoleInfo.ClusterRole alongside ClusterId. Null role
(legacy, no cluster role) keeps every driver member — reconcile-all, unchanged.
Also clarified the ownClusterId doc wording (non-null-and-non-empty).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Review follow-ups on the redundancy re-home (Phase 6, Task 2):
- Program.cs: the hasDriver comment claimed IClusterRoleInfo "throws at host
start if this driver node carries no cluster role" — false since the fallback
landed. Rewrite it to describe the cluster-{ClusterId} scope with the driver-role
fallback for legacy single-mesh / not-yet-migrated nodes.
- ClusterRoleInfo.cs: the SubscriberActor comment described RedundancyStateActor as
the "admin-role singleton" — stale. Note it is now a cluster-{ClusterId}-scoped
singleton spawned on every driver node (LeaderChanged stays a no-op here).
- Add a host/registry-level test for the driver-role FALLBACK path (roles ["driver"],
no cluster role) closing the coverage asymmetry — it was proven only in the pure
helper. Asserts the node boots and registers RedundancyStateActorKey, i.e. the boot
the earlier throw-based version would have aborted.
The boot helper now supplies an in-memory IDbContextFactory and a fake IClusterRoleInfo:
Akka.Hosting invokes singleton props factories eagerly at StartAsync, and the admin
ClusterNodeAddressReconciler factory reads both (the latter for its per-cluster reconcile
scope, added by a sibling Phase 6 task) — without them the admin boot NREs.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
After the fleet splits into one Akka mesh per application Cluster, a
ClusterClientReceptionist serves only its own mesh — so the single
fleet-wide client's SendToAll reached only the mesh whose receptionist
answered, leaving every other cluster silently on its old configuration.
Central now holds one ClusterClient per ClusterId and fans SendToAll
across all of them. LoadContactsFromDb selects ClusterId and groups the
receptionist contacts per cluster (keeping the per-row TryParse guard and
the enabled/non-maintenance filter); ContactsLoaded carries
ContactsByCluster; HandleContactsLoaded diffs per cluster (rebuild changed,
stop+drop vanished, warn-don't-create on empty); RebuildClient builds a
per-cluster client under a clusterId-derived actor name. IMeshClusterClientFactory.Create
gained a clusterId parameter so the per-cluster clients get distinct,
diagnosable names. ApplyAck handling and the DPS branch are unchanged; the
deploy path stays payload-free.
Tests: focused unit coverage of the grouping + fan-out (one-client-per-cluster,
fan-out SendToAll to every cluster client) via the recording factory double,
plus the real two-mesh boundary test extended to central + two separate site
meshes proving one dispatch reaches both and a client scoped to one cluster
never crosses into another. Red-before-green verified: crippling the fan-out
to a single client fails the reaches-both-meshes assertion.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 6 splits the fleet into one mesh per Cluster, so an admin (central)
node's Cluster.State.Members shows only its own pair — it no longer sees
site members via gossip. The ClusterNodeAddressReconciler singleton compared
live membership against EVERY ClusterNode row fleet-wide, so post-split every
foreign-cluster row would log EnabledRowNotInCluster forever.
Scope the actor's two DB queries to rows whose ClusterId matches the admin
node's own (IClusterRoleInfo.ClusterId, sourced at registration). A legacy
admin node with no cluster role (null ClusterId) still reconciles the whole
fleet — it genuinely sees every member via gossip. The pure Reconcile
function and AddressMismatchKind semantics are unchanged; scoping lives
entirely in the actor's queries.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 6 splits the single fleet-wide Akka mesh into one 2-node mesh per
application Cluster. RedundancyStateActor was an admin-scoped cluster singleton
that elected ONE fleet-wide driver Primary — but after the split a driver-only
site pair has no admin node in its mesh to host it, so its Primary would never
be elected.
Re-home it: remove the redundancy WithSingleton block from the admin
WithOtOpcUaControlPlaneSingletons set, and add WithOtOpcUaClusterRedundancySingleton,
a singleton spawned from Program.cs's hasDriver branch on EVERY driver node (the
fused central included). It scopes to the node's own cluster-{ClusterId} role when
present, and falls back to the fixed `driver` role otherwise. Each mesh then has
exactly one, electing its own pair-local Primary and publishing redundancy-state
on its own mesh's DistributedPubSub. The election logic (oldest Up driver member)
and the DPS publish are unchanged — they become pair-local after the split.
The driver-role fallback (Decision 2) deliberately does NOT throw when a node has
no cluster role: that is the pre-Phase-6 fleet-wide behavior on a legacy single
mesh, so legacy/harness (TwoNodeClusterHarness: admin,driver) and not-yet-migrated
deployments keep booting unchanged. On a genuinely split 2-node mesh the `driver`
role is already pair-local (the mesh IS the pair), so the fallback is correct in
both worlds. Cluster-scope, when present, additionally survives an accidental
two-mesh merge by keeping one singleton per cluster.
The role scope + driver-role fallback are pinned by unit tests against the
extracted BuildClusterRedundancySingletonOptions helper (the BuildDowningHocon
pattern); admin-removal + driver-registration are pinned behaviorally against a
booted node's ActorRegistry.

Phase 6 Task 1. IClusterRoleInfo gains ClusterRole/ClusterId, derived from
the node's configured AkkaClusterOptions.Roles at construction time (not
live Cluster.State) so the identity is available before the cluster forms.
First cluster-scoped role wins when more than one is configured, logged as
a Warning. Updates the FakeClusterRoleInfo test double in
ServiceCollectionExtensionsTests to satisfy the new interface members.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 6 (per-cluster mesh split) needs nodes to carry a cluster-scoped
role like cluster-SITE-A; RoleParser previously rejected anything
outside the fixed admin/driver/dev set. Adds IsClusterRole/
ClusterIdFromRole plus well-known-role constants, and points the three
duplicate "driver" string literals (RedundancyStateActor,
ClusterNodeAddressReconcilerActor, ServiceCollectionExtensions) at the
new RoleParser.Driver so the value has one source, without renaming
any existing DriverRole symbol.

Closes two test-completeness gaps flagged in review of the seam-tap commit — the
ScriptedAlarmHostActor and VirtualTagActor hub emits had no test proving the hub
actually receives them.
- ScriptedAlarm_activation_emits_one_Alarm_item_with_matching_payload: spawns the
host with a capturing fake hub, drives a real engine Inactive->Active transition
through the existing ScriptedAlarms harness, and asserts exactly one
TelemetryItem.Alarm carrying the Activated transition.
- VirtualTag_script_log_emits_one_Script_item_with_same_payload: passes a fake hub
via Props + a publisherFactory, drives an evaluator failure, and asserts a
TelemetryItem.Script carrying the SAME ScriptLogEntry instance handed to the
publisher.
To make the VirtualTagActor tap observable, its hub emit moved to the TOP of
PublishLog, before the test-only publisherFactory early-return branch, so the emit
fires on BOTH the production DPS path and the factory path. Production behavior is
unchanged: production passes publisherFactory: null, so it still reaches the DPS
Tell; the emit just moved a couple lines earlier (both are fire-and-forget).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Each of the four telemetry publish seams now also emits its DPS payload into the
node-local ITelemetryLocalHub (Phase 5), leaving the existing DistributedPubSub
publish untouched:
- driver-health AkkaDriverHealthPublisher -> TelemetryItem.Health
- resilience DriverResilienceStatusPublisherService -> TelemetryItem.Resilience
- alerts ScriptedAlarmHostActor + DriverHostActor (native) -> TelemetryItem.Alarm
- script-logs VirtualTagActor + DpsScriptLogPublisher -> TelemetryItem.Script
DI services take the hub as a required ctor param; actors take an optional
nullable hub threaded through their Props and the real spawn sites
(DriverHostActor <- ServiceCollectionExtensions; VirtualTagActor/ScriptedAlarmHostActor
<- DriverHostActor), so existing test Props constructions keep compiling and simply
do not emit. The hub is a no-op until a gRPC client subscribes, so the emit is safe
on every node.

Scripted-alarm condition state lives in LocalDb (Phase 4); the ConfigDb-backed
Ef store + ScriptedAlarmState table are now dead. Removes the test-harness Ef
fallback (a DB-backed node with no store now skips the alarm host), deletes the
store + entity + model config, and drops the table via migration.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
A driver-only node has a null dbFactory but a wired applier; the old combined
guard routed it to the raw-sink fallback that wipes the address space and never
re-materialises. Split the guard so in-hand artifact bytes drive the real
diff-and-apply; a missing artifact abandons the rebuild (keep last-known-good,
#485) instead of wiping.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Nullable ConfigDb factory; UpsertNodeDeploymentState no-ops when absent
(central persists acks from the ApplyAck); scripted-alarm condition state
served from the LocalDb store instead of the ConfigDb-backed Ef store.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
The Phase 3 live gate deadlocked every FetchAndCache deploy: DeploymentArtifactGrpcService
gated on Status==Sealed, but central seals a deployment only AFTER every node acks Applied,
and a FetchAndCache node cannot ack until it has fetched the artifact — seal-needs-ack ->
ack-needs-fetch -> fetch-needs-sealed. The node's fetch reached central and passed the
shared-key interceptor, then got a clean NotFound; the #485 apply-failure path correctly
kept last-known-good, but the deploy could never seal.
Direct mode reads the same ArtifactBlob from SQL while the row is still AwaitingApplyAcks,
so the serve path must too. Drop the Sealed gate: serve any deployment whose blob is
non-empty (unknown id / empty blob still collapse to NotFound — existence-hiding + #485).
Access is already gated by the interceptor, so there is no reason to hide a non-sealed
deployment a node is legitimately applying. The Task 2 'non-sealed -> NotFound' test flips
to 'non-sealed with a blob is served'.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 8. Stands a real h2c-only Kestrel listener serving the real
DeploymentArtifactGrpcService behind the real ConfigServeAuthInterceptor (in-memory
config DB seeded with one sealed deployment), and drives the real
GrpcDeploymentArtifactFetcher across it — proving a stream crosses the real boundary,
not just that the fetcher's logic is right (Task 4's fakes). Asserts: (1) right key +
>256 KB blob reassembles byte-equal and verifies against RevisionHash; (2) FALSIFIABILITY
CONTROL — wrong key returns null while the right key succeeds on the SAME server (so the
null is the auth gate, not a dead server); (3) unknown id -> null (NotFound-hidden);
(4) [dead-port, real-port] failover still returns the bytes. h2c GrpcChannel over http://
works out of the box in .NET 10. Tagged [Trait Category=ArtifactBoundary].
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 7. Regression net pinning the #485 negative on every FetchAndCache seam —
nothing rebuilds, nothing is torn down on a failure: (1) a null fetch mid-steady-state
(all endpoints down / NotFound / SHA mismatch — indistinguishable to the actor) keeps
the served address space and revision (no RebuildAddressSpace for the failed revision);
(2) a zero-length blob handed to the actor fails via ReconcileDriversFromBlob's own #485
guard, independent of the fetcher's null contract; (3) a corrupt cache at boot (surfaced
as GetCurrentUnkeyedAsync == null) lands Steady-no-revision and applies NOTHING — never
a partial address space. No new mechanism; all green as a net. Removing the #485 empty
guard reddens the zero-length test.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 6. In FetchAndCache mode Bootstrap() branches to BootstrapFromCache(),
which restores served state from the LocalDb pointer (GetCurrentUnkeyedAsync → set
_currentRevision → ApplyCachedArtifact from the cached bytes) with NO central-SQL read.
Distinct from the Direct-mode TryBootFromCache fallback: reading the cache is NORMAL
operation here so _isRunningFromCache stays false (the node can still fetch new
deploys). An empty OR unreadable cache lands Steady-with-no-revision (the first dispatch
fetches), never Stale — Stale means 'central SQL down, retry it', and FetchAndCache has
no config SQL read to recover. TryRecoverFromStale gains a defensive FetchAndCache guard
(it is unreachable in that mode, since the retry-db timer only starts in Stale).
Proven with a ThrowingDbFactory in every test: reaching Steady + applying a dispatch
proves the boot never touched central SQL. Sabotaging the mode branch (fall through to
the SQL read) reddens all three — test A flips RunningFromCache; B/C enter Stale, which
ignores the dispatch.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 5. Under ConfigSource:Mode=FetchAndCache, a DispatchDeployment whose
revision differs from _currentRevision kicks off a gRPC artifact fetch that PipeTo's
its result back to Self as FetchedForApply (never a blocking await in a receive — that
would freeze the mailbox for the fetch deadline). HandleFetchedForApply then applies
synchronously on the actor thread, mirroring ApplyAndAck: null bytes = apply FAILURE
(keep last-known-good, do not advance the revision, ack Failed — #485); non-null bytes
reconcile drivers, rebuild the address space and push subscriptions FROM the bytes in
hand (OpcUaPublishActor never reads central SQL), then cache them. A faulted fetch task
maps to null bytes so it can't escape as an unhandled message.
Extracted ReconcileDriversFromBlob from ReconcileDrivers so Direct-read, FetchAndCache
and boot-from-cache share one reconcile body (the #485 empty guard moves into it);
ApplyCachedArtifact now reuses it instead of duplicating the spawn-plan logic.
DI: DriverHostActor.Props gains fetchAndCacheMode + artifactFetcher (LAST, per the
positional-forwarding warning); Runtime resolves them from IOptions<ConfigSourceOptions>
(fetcher only in FetchAndCache mode); Host registers GrpcDeploymentArtifactFetcher under
hasDriver.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 4. GrpcDeploymentArtifactFetcher streams the artifact from the first
configured central endpoint that answers, reassembles the chunks, and verifies
SHA-256(bytes) lowercase-hex == the dispatched RevisionHash (byte-identical to
ConfigComposer's Convert.ToHexStringLower(SHA256.HashData(blob))). Every per-endpoint
problem — RpcException, zero-length stream, or hash mismatch — is logged and the next
endpoint tried; if none yield verified bytes it returns null (apply failure, keep
last-known-good — the #485 contract), never throwing into the actor loop. A
Func<endpoint, client> seam keeps the gRPC boundary out of the unit tests (that is
Task 8's job); the real path caches one h2c GrpcChannel per endpoint.
Files live under the .DeploymentCache namespace (folder Deployment/) to avoid shadowing
the Configuration.Entities.Deployment type in the test assembly — same convention as
LocalDbDeploymentArtifactCache.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 3 Task 3. Central serves the deployment artifact over a dedicated h2c
Kestrel listener (ConfigServe:GrpcListenPort), gated by the ConfigServeAuthInterceptor
(shared bearer key, FixedTimeEquals, fail-closed, path-scoped to
/deployment_artifact.v1.DeploymentArtifactService/). The listener block is merged
with the LocalDb-sync listener so a fused admin+driver node re-applies its existing
HTTP surface exactly ONCE and adds both dedicated h2c ports on top — double-binding
would throw 'address already in use'; zero re-binding would silently unbind the
AdminUI behind Traefik. AddGrpc now registers under hasDriver || hasAdmin with both
path-scoped interceptors sharing one pipeline.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Streams a sealed deployment's ArtifactBlob to a fetching driver node in
128-KiB chunks (matching the LocalDb cache chunk size). Unknown id, a
non-sealed deployment, and a zero-length blob all collapse to one
indistinguishable NotFound — existence-hiding plus the #485 serve-side guard
(never stream empty bytes as a valid empty config). The impl is named
DeploymentArtifactGrpcService to avoid colliding with the generated
DeploymentArtifactService container type.

The repo has consumed packaged gRPC clients (LocalDb.Replication,
HistorianGateway.Client) but never compiled a proto locally. This adds the
Grpc.Tools toolchain to Commons and a deployment_artifact.proto with a single
server-streaming Fetch(deployment_id) -> stream ArtifactChunk RPC, generating
both the server base and the client stub (GrpcServices="Both") so central
(Host/AdminUI) and the node (Runtime) share one reference. A compile-touch test
pins the codegen: it stops compiling if generation regresses.

ConfigSource:Mode = Direct (default, read central SQL) | FetchAndCache (fetch
the artifact from central over gRPC, read LocalDb). The validator fails host
start on a FetchAndCache shape that cannot fetch — no endpoints, a non-http(s)
endpoint, no shared key, or a non-positive timeout — because each otherwise
surfaces as a silent absence (a deploy that never applies). ConfigServe (the
central serve surface) takes a plain Configure: a 0 port is a valid "disabled".
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Two genuinely separate single-member clusters sharing the ActorSystem name and
joined only by ClusterClient, so the mesh boundary is exercised over the wire
rather than through an in-process relay: a relay cannot fail for a missing
receptionist extension, an unregistered service, a malformed contact path or a
serialization break, which are the Phase 2 failure modes.
Covers both legs plus the control:
* central SendToAll -> node comm actor -> node EventStream
* node ApplyAck -> central comm actor, through the node's own client
* a node without the receptionist extension receives nothing
Sabotage-verified. Suppressing the node-side EventStream publish and the
outbound ack Tell reddens one leg each. Restoring the receptionist and the
service registration on the control node reddens the control, which is what
proves the control's send is live rather than silently misaddressed.
The control removes the extension AND the RegisterService call, since resolving
the receptionist to register would materialise the extension whose absence is
the point; it falsifies "delivery happens without a receptionist boundary", not
the extension line alone. Recorded in the test.
Also corrects MeshCommActorPathTests: with one node per side, per-node and
singleton registration are indistinguishable here, so the property the dropped
Task 6 assertion covered belongs to live-gate step 8, not to this class.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01GASWkNEi68FSCtvr6rLoEW
Phase 2 Task 7. The five central->node publish sites -- ConfigPublishCoordinator's
deploy dispatch, and AdminOperationsActor's restart, reconnect, acknowledge and
shelve -- now hand a MeshCommand to the transport router instead of telling the
DistributedPubSub mediator directly. Neither actor knows which transport is in
force any more.
_meshRouter is NULLABLE with a mediator fallback, and that is deliberate: about
a dozen existing coordinator and admin-operations tests construct these actors
without a router, and they must keep exercising the real DPS path rather than a
silently-disabled one. The fallback is not a permanent seam -- Phase 6 deletes
it with the DPS branch and the single mesh.
Wiring note: the comm actor's WithActors block moved ABOVE the singleton
registrations so both singletons can resolve it with registry.Get, which is the
ordering-by-registration idiom AdminOperationsActor already uses for the
coordinator. An earlier version used ActorSelection.ResolveOne().GetAwaiter()
.GetResult() inside the props factory -- that blocks inside actor construction
and races the very spawn it waits for.
Sabotage-verified by inverting the branch so the mediator always wins: all six
new tests go red, including the fallback test (which proves it is asserting the
mediator path rather than passing by accident).
Suites after: ControlPlane 118/118, Runtime 450/450, Host.IntegrationTests
196/202 -- sole failure AbCip_Green_AgainstSim, the fixture baseline that fails
on master too.
