Both failures in the windev baseline were test bugs that reproduce on any Windows
host, not anything missing or misconfigured on windev.
SelfSignedCertificateProviderTests.GenerateCertificate_HasExpectedSansEkuAndValidity
asserted SAN content by substring-matching X509Extension.Format(false). That string
comes from the platform crypto library: Windows' CryptFormatObject renders the IPv6
loopback fully expanded (0000:0000:...:0001) where the managed formatter renders
"::1", so the loopback assertion could never hold on Windows. Decode the extension
with X509SubjectAlternativeNameExtension and compare parsed IPAddress values and DNS
names instead, which removes the platform-dependent formatting from the assertion.
SessionManagerTests.OpenSessionAsync_PipeNameIsShortAndUniquePerPidAndSession guards
the 104-byte macOS sun_path budget NEXT-01 shortened the pipe name to fit. It padded
the measured name up to a five-digit pid but never substituted that worst case
downward, so Windows' routine six-digit pids over-counted by a character against a
budget that does not constrain the host running the test. Substitute the five-digit
macOS worst case for the running pid's digit count so the check measures the name
format rather than the current pid.
EventStreamServiceTests.WaitUntilAsync now reports the unmet condition on timeout
instead of letting a bare TaskCanceledException escape. Its five-second real-clock
deadline is genuinely load-sensitive on windev (36 logical CPUs, maxParallelThreads
-1), and an opaque cancellation there is exactly what got the previous failures
filed as "environmental" and left unexplained.
Documents the windev run in docs/GatewayTesting.md: the two fixed bugs and their root
causes, the real-pipe suites whose failures are evidence of machine load rather than
of the change under test, and the full-suite testhost that completes every test and
then never exits (filtered runs exit normally; macOS exits cleanly). Corrects the
CLAUDE.md claim that the suite exits cleanly on the Windows dev box.
RunMonitorAsync issued SubscribeAlarms and the first reconcile before the
internal distributor subscriber was attached (via ISessionManager
.ReadAlarmEventsAsync). The pump has been running since MarkReady started the
dashboard mirror and only fans to subscribers registered at fan-out time, so
every transition raised in that two-round-trip window bypassed the alarm feed —
and a missed Acknowledge was never repaired, because ApplyReconcile broadcast
presence deltas only.
- The monitor now takes the internal lease directly from its session BEFORE
SubscribeAlarms and drains it after the first reconcile; window transitions
buffer in the lease's bounded channel. Processing them after ApplyReconcile is
order-safe (ApplyTransition handles alarms the snapshot already placed).
- ISessionManager.ReadAlarmEventsAsync removed — zero remaining callers.
- ApplyReconcile broadcasts an Acknowledge feed transition when a both-present
alarm's state advanced to ActiveAcked. This is a feed-level repair on the
AlarmFeedMessage/StreamAlarms surface rebuilt from the worker's own snapshot,
not MxEvent emission, so the "never synthesize events" rule is untouched;
the reasoning is recorded on ApplyReconcile.
The alarm-monitor test fakes now hand the monitor a real Ready GatewaySession
with a dashboard mirror, which is what makes the window reproducible.

Resolve all CommentChecker findings across the gateway server, worker, tests,
and .NET client (314 -> 0 real issues): add missing <returns>/<summary>/<param>
on public and test members, convert Stream/interface overrides to <inheritdoc/>,
and remove internal task/issue tracking IDs (SEC-*, IPC-*, WRK-*, GWC-*, TST-*,
Client.Dotnet-*) from shipped code documentation while preserving the design
rationale prose. Shipped comments should not carry internal bookkeeping, and
complete XML docs keep the analyzer/TreatWarningsAsErrors gate and generated API
docs clean. The 6 remaining flags are heuristic false positives (MD5, UTC-4,
capacity-1, near-1601) left intact so real documentation is not corrupted.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01DMXXvNuPekkkrTEyPNxEkW
Interlocking changes across the gateway server (shared GatewaySession.cs /
SessionManager.cs), committed together:
- GWC-01 (Critical): alarm monitor now attaches as an internal
(non-counted) distributor subscriber instead of a second raw drain of the
single worker event channel; WorkerClient._events -> SingleReader with a
claimed-once guard so a future dual-consumer regression throws loudly.
- GWC-02 (High): faulted sessions are swept in CloseExpiredLeasesAsync
(IsFaultedReapable + FaultedReason); new FaultedGraceSeconds (default 0).
- GWC-03 (High): configurable MaxSparseArrayLength (default 1_000_000)
enforced before allocation.
- TST-02 (High, security): StreamEvents attach now enforces the opening key
id -> PermissionDenied on owner mismatch.
- TST-12 (Medium): CLAUDE.md retention-defaults sentence corrected.
Verified: NonWindows build clean; targeted tests 135/135 on macOS, plus
WorkerClientTests 18/18 on the Windows host.
- Issue 1: document the isOnlySubscriber snapshot race-safety assumption in
OnSubscriberOverflow; flags the Task 7/8 revisit point explicitly.
- Issue 2: pin StreamDisconnects==1 in the FailFast overflow test so a
regression dropping the StreamDisconnected("Detached") finally call is caught.
- Issue 3: replace plain int/bool? reads in SlowSubscriberOverflow test with
Volatile.Read/Write + Interlocked.Increment stores to close the C# memory
model data race on overflowCalls and observedIsOnlySubscriber.
- Issue 4: add SlowSubscriberOverflow_WithMultipleSubscribers_... distributor
test pinning that isOnlySubscriber==false disables the session-fault path;
includes TODO(Task 8) note for the GatewaySession-level assertion.
- Issue 5: reword SubscriberOverflowHandler XML doc to make explicit that the
handler must NOT complete the subscriber's channel; the distributor owns that.
Add a nullable string? OwnerKeyId property to GatewaySession that captures
the API key identifier (KeyId) of the authenticated caller that opened the
session. Wire it through ISessionManager.OpenSessionAsync → SessionManager
→ GatewaySession constructor. The gRPC service passes identityAccessor
.Current?.KeyId; internal callers (GatewayAlarmMonitor, DashboardLiveDataService)
pass null. Covers the positive and null cases with two new TDD-first tests.
Adds missing <summary>/<param> XML docs across 99 server, worker, and test
files so CommentChecker reports zero issues (TreatWarningsAsErrors needs the
analyzer clean). Bundles in WIP dashboard work: NavSection extraction,
MainLayout/site.css/js styling alignment, and DashboardOptions/Auth tweaks.
Add IDashboardSessionAdminService (Admin-role gate, friendly errors,
audit logging) wrapping a new ISessionManager.KillWorkerAsync that
skips graceful shutdown and cleans up registry/metrics. Sessions,
Workers, and SessionDetails pages render Close / Kill buttons only
when CanManage; the service re-checks the role on every call so
forged clicks return Unauthenticated.

Server-031: re-triaged. The recommended gateway-side
"skip-while-command-in-flight" guard is already in place at
WorkerClient.HeartbeatLoopAsync via WorkerClientOptions.HeartbeatStuckCeiling
(default 75s = 5× HeartbeatGrace). Two regression tests pin the
behaviour. Recommendation #1 (decouple worker-side _writeLock) is a
Worker-module concern (Worker-017 / Worker-023) and out of scope here.
Server-032: re-triaged. Recommendation #2 (rich diagnostic) is already
in EnqueueWorkerEventAsync, with #3 (overflow grace) absorbed by the
TryWrite → WriteAsync-with-timeout fall-through. Test
EnqueueWorkerEvent_WhenChannelFullPastTimeout_FaultsWithRichDiagnostic
pins the diagnostic string. Recommendation #1 (prose contract in
gateway.md / docs) is deferred — outside this pass's edit scope.
Server-038 (Security): EventsHub.SubscribeSession's missing per-session
ACL is documented with a TODO(per-session-acl) and a <remarks> block
explaining the v1 acceptance (any dashboard role can subscribe to any
session — non-secret metadata, redacted value logging). The per-session
ACL design lands in a follow-up once a session-scoped role exists.
Server-039 (Error handling): HubTokenService.Validate now rejects a
deserialized payload where both Name and NameIdentifier are null/empty.
New test file HubTokenServiceTests.cs covers the regression and five
sanity cases. TDD confirmed.
Server-040 (Conventions): MapGroupsToRoles gains a precedence comment
explaining "full literal match first, leading-RDN fallback;
OrdinalIgnoreCase via DashboardOptions.GroupToRole". Documentation-only.
Server-041 (Design adherence): EventStreamService.ProduceEventsAsync
wraps the broadcaster.Publish call in try/catch (Exception). The
producer loop and gRPC stream are no longer at the mercy of the
broadcaster's never-throw discipline. New regression test
StreamEventsAsync_WhenDashboardBroadcasterThrows_StillYieldsEventsAndDoesNotFaultSession.
Server-042 (Performance): DashboardSnapshotPublisher.ExecuteAsync now
mirrors AlarmsHubPublisher's reconnect loop — wraps the await foreach
in a while-not-cancelled, catches general exceptions, and Task.Delays
5s before retrying. An internal ctor accepts a shorter delay for the
test. New test file DashboardSnapshotPublisherTests.cs covers the
throw-then-yield reconnect path and the normal-completion case.
Server-043 (Documentation): HubTokenService class XML doc gains a
<remarks> describing the singleton lifetime, the two consumer scopes
(DashboardHubConnectionFactory scoped, HubTokenAuthenticationHandler
transient), and the thread-safety contract.
Verification: dotnet build src/ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.slnx clean
(0 warnings / 0 errors); src/ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Tests 486/486 passing.

EventsHub publisher (closes the v2.1 follow-up flagged in the previous commit)
EventStreamService now mirrors every MxEvent it forwards to a gRPC client
into the `EventsHub` group for the session. The fan-out goes through a new
singleton `IDashboardEventBroadcaster`:
* IDashboardEventBroadcaster — abstraction so EventStreamService doesn't
take a direct dependency on SignalR.
* DashboardEventBroadcaster — singleton implementation that hands the
SendAsync to IHubContext<EventsHub> as fire-and-forget. Errors are
logged at debug and dropped so the source gRPC stream is never
blocked.
EventStreamService now takes IDashboardEventBroadcaster as a ctor parameter
and calls Publish(sessionId, publicEvent) once per event after sequence
filtering, before the bounded queue write. Test fixtures and the live
integration harness pass NullDashboardEventBroadcaster.Instance so the
broadcaster is a no-op in unit tests.
SessionDetailsPage adds a "Recent events" panel:
* implements IAsyncDisposable
* opens a second HubConnection via DashboardHubConnectionFactory targeting
/hubs/events
* calls SubscribeSession(SessionId) on Start
* renders the most recent 50 events in a small table (worker seq, family,
server/item handle, alarm reference when the event is OnAlarmTransition)
* shows a live/offline conn-pill driven by HubConnection.Closed /
Reconnected events
The dashboard mirror is intentionally passive — events appear only while a
gRPC client is also consuming that session's events. Documented as such in
the empty-state copy and in GatewayDashboardDesign.md.
Documentation refresh
Every doc that referenced the retired options (PathBase, RequireAdminScope,
RequiredGroup) and the old API-key-cookie auth flow is updated to describe
the new model:
* CLAUDE.md — Authentication section now explains LDAP bind +
GroupToRole + HubToken bearer flow.
* gateway.md — Dashboard section: root-mounted routes, snapshot/alarms/
events SignalR hubs, LDAP cookie + bearer scheme.
* docs/GatewayConfiguration.md — drop PathBase / RequireAdminScope rows,
add GroupToRole row, append "Authorization policies" and "SignalR hubs"
subsections describing the three policies and the /hubs/* endpoints.
* docs/GatewayDashboardDesign.md — hosting model (root mount, new
endpoint layout), Realtime Updates rewritten as a hub table
(DashboardSnapshotHub / AlarmsHub / EventsHub with producers, payloads,
and routing), Authentication And Authorization rewritten around LDAP +
role mapping + the hub bearer flow, Configuration block updated.
* docs/GatewayProcessDesign.md — security-section dashboard paragraph
and the example config block both refreshed to LDAP/role auth.
* docs/ImplementationPlanGateway.md — dashboard-auth deliverable list
updated (LDAP bind + GroupToRole + /hubs/token bearer mint replace the
API-key login flow).
* docs/GatewayTesting.md — DashboardLdapLiveTests blurb describes the
GroupToRole fixture (`{ GwAdmin: Admin }`) instead of the retired
RequiredGroup default; success-path assertion explains the role-claim
check.
Verification: 475 server tests, 275 worker tests (+ 9 dev-rig skips), 18
integration tests (live MxAccess + LDAP + Galaxy) all pass — including the
live worker smoke test fixture that now constructs EventStreamService with
the new broadcaster parameter.

Apply the ZB.MOM.WW. prefix to all gateway-side projects, folders,
.csproj/.sln contents, C# namespaces, using directives, generated proto
C# (csharp_namespace + checked-in generated files), InternalsVisibleTo
attributes, project-name string literals (LoadProject, .sln lookups,
worker exe paths, staticwebassets manifest), and the install/script/doc
references that point at any of the above. Migrate the solution from
.sln to .slnx via `dotnet sln migrate` and delete the old file.
External-runtime identifiers are intentionally NOT prefixed so external
configuration keeps working:
- GatewayMetrics.cs MeterName ("MxGateway.Server")
- DashboardAuthenticationDefaults Scheme/Policy ("MxGateway.Dashboard")
- GatewayRequestLoggingMiddleware logger category ("MxGateway.Request")
- StaRuntime thread name ("MxGateway.Worker.STA")
- appsettings.json root section "MxGateway" + env-var prefix
MxGateway__... and secret-name MxGateway:ApiKeyPepper
- C:\ProgramData\MxGateway\ data dir paths
Also fixes two tests that were not rename-related but became visible
while validating the rename:
- WorkerLiveMxAccessSmokeTests.ShutDownAsync: cancellation that the
gateway service correctly maps to RpcException(Cancelled) per gRPC
convention was being misclassified as a stream fault. Added a sibling
catch on RpcException with StatusCode.Cancelled.
- IntegrationTestEnvironment.ResolveRepositoryRoot: extracted IsRepositoryRoot
and made it accept either a .git marker OR a .sln/.slnx next to src/
so the worker-exe walker works in non-git working copies.
clients/proto/proto-inputs.json's protoRoot updated to point at
src/ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Contracts/Protos.
Verified by `dotnet build` and a full `dotnet test` of the .slnx with
MXGATEWAY_RUN_LIVE_{MXACCESS,LDAP,GALAXY}_TESTS=1:
Tests: 472/472 pass
Worker.Tests: 280/280 pass (4 dev-rig [Fact(Skip=...)] skipped)
IntegrationTests: 18/18 pass
