Closes Phase 3 of the overview-dashboard plan (tasks 3.7-3.9).
Self-observability
- OverviewMetrics: an observable gauge read from the published snapshot at scrape
time, so the metric and the page cannot disagree about what the dashboard
believes, plus a sweep-duration histogram. Instrument names follow the family
METRIC-CONVENTIONS spec (overview.instance.status / overview.poll.duration,
unit s) rather than the plan's literal zb_ names; Prometheus renders them as
overview_instance_status and overview_poll_duration_seconds. Labels are
application/node/group - "node", not "instance", because Prometheus stamps its
own instance label on every scraped series and a colliding metric label is
silently renamed exported_instance. Instances never probed emit nothing: the
enum's zero ordinal is Up, so a placeholder would publish the single most
reassuring answer about a node nobody has heard from.
- Two readiness checks make the dashboard's own /health/ready mean something:
registry-loaded (reports the counts it bound) and last-poll-cycle-completed,
which catches the failure where Kestrel is fine, the page still renders, and
every card on it is quietly frozen. The heartbeat is stamped by the sweep, not
derived from the snapshot's timestamp - the poller publishes the registry
before it probes anything, so a stuck poller would otherwise look healthy.
No cycle yet is Degraded inside the grace window and Unhealthy past it, so a
restart does not fail readiness for its first seconds and a poller that never
started cannot hide behind "still starting".
Configuration
- appsettings.json ships tuning defaults with an EMPTY Applications list, so a
deployment that supplies no registry fails at ConfigPreflight naming the key
instead of booting into a dashboard of nothing.
- Three registries, because reachability genuinely differs: Development is the
host-reachable subset (4 instances), Docker is the full 16-instance fleet by
container DNS name. The rigs publish almost no per-node HTTP port to the host
- OtOpcUa publishes none (only Traefik :9200, load-balanced across the central
pair, so it cannot identify a node) and ScadaBridge keeps site :8084
container-internal. Ports were established by probing the running rigs, not
read off the compose files, because the two disagree: OtOpcUa site nodes serve
health on :8080, not the :9000 their compose anchor implies.
- Real Serilog sinks, not the family's empty "Serilog": {}. AddZbSerilog drives
sinks entirely from configuration and adds none of its own, so the empty
section produces an app that logs NOWHERE - verified against the running
HistorianGateway container, whose log stream is completely empty for exactly
this reason. The HttpClient level override matters too: 16 instances on a 10s
cadence emit several Information lines a second of pure probe noise.
Container
- HistorianGateway-pattern runtime-only image; the compose stack joins the three
rig networks as external, so bringing the dashboard up or down cannot disturb
a rig. The Dockerfile clears ASPNETCORE_HTTP_PORTS as well as ASPNETCORE_URLS:
on .NET 8+ the base image declares its binding via the former, and clearing
only the latter leaves Kestrel logging "Overriding address(es)" every boot.
No healthcheck - aspnet:10.0 has neither curl nor wget, and adding a
--healthcheck entry point to production code to satisfy Compose is not a
trade worth making.
Tests
- BootTests boot the real Program.cs: every endpoint anonymous, the page
rendering from cache while nothing it watches is reachable, the Meters
allowlist proven by an end-to-end /metrics scrape, and both refuse-to-boot
paths (missing registry, stale window inside the poll interval).
The registry is supplied via environment variables, not
ConfigureAppConfiguration, because ConfigPreflight runs before Build() - when
the factory's callbacks are applied - and would not see them.
170 tests, 0 warnings. Verified live against the running rigs: 16 cards, 16
gauge series, page and gauge agreeing exactly.
scadaproj
Umbrella workspace for a family of related SCADA / OT (operational-technology) projects built around AVEVA System Platform (Wonderware), OPC UA, and Akka.NET.
This repository is part index — a map of the sister projects, which are their own repositories — and part home for cross-project normalization work and the shared code it produces.
Working in here with Claude Code? See
CLAUDE.mdfor the machine-oriented index and guidance. This README is the human-facing overview.

The sister projects
Independent repositories, coupled only at runtime over wire protocols (gRPC + OPC UA) — not by a shared build. scadaproj indexes them; it does not contain them.
- OtOpcUa (
lmxopcua) — OPC UA server (.NET 10) that republishes Wonderware Galaxy tags as an OPC UA address space. - MxAccessGateway (
mxaccessgw) — gRPC gateway giving modern x64 / .NET-10 clients full MXAccess parity without loading 32-bit COM. The linchpin both others depend on. - ScadaBridge — distributed SCADA platform on Akka.NET (hub-and-spoke: one central cluster
- N site clusters); its Data Connection Layer ingests OPC UA and MxAccess.
- HistorianGateway (
historiangw) — gRPC sidecar over the AVEVA Historian (read/write) plus read-only Galaxy browse; no COM, no x86 worker. OtOpcUa's sole historian backend.
Data flow:
Wonderware Galaxy ──gRPC──▶ mxaccessgw ──▶ OtOpcUa (republishes as OPC UA) ─┐
└────────────────────────────────────┴─▶ ScadaBridge clusters

ZB.MOM.WW.Theme — the shared UI kit
The UI-theme component, realized as a single-package .NET 10 Razor Class Library that replaced
each app's copy-pasted Technical-Light design system. Adopted by all four apps, currently on
0.3.1 (feed carries 0.2.0–0.3.1); adoption history in
components/ui-theme/GAPS.md.

ZB.MOM.WW.Auth — the shared library
The auth component, realized as a four-package .NET 10 library that replaced each app's
re-implemented authentication. Adopted by all four apps — pins drift deliberately
(OtOpcUa 0.1.1, ScadaBridge 0.1.3, MxAccessGateway + HistorianGateway 0.1.4); history in
components/auth/GAPS.md.
| Package | Purpose | Used by |
|---|---|---|
ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.Abstractions |
Contracts, CanonicalRole, API-key types (zero deps) |
all |
ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.Ldap |
Bind-then-search LDAP authentication (fail-closed) | all |
ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.ApiKeys |
Peppered-HMAC API keys + SQLite store + verifier + admin commands | MxAccessGateway, ScadaBridge |
ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.AspNetCore |
Canonical claim types, cookie defaults, LDAP DI helpers | all (web UIs) |
Consumer matrix: OtOpcUa → Abstractions + Ldap + AspNetCore (no ApiKeys / SQLite);
MxAccessGateway, ScadaBridge & HistorianGateway → all four packages.
Identity (LDAP / GLAuth, the canonical role set) is normalized; each app keeps its own
authorization enforcement (OPC-UA permissions / gRPC scopes / roles + site-scoping) and maps
it onto the canonical roles. Design: components/auth/spec/SPEC.md
and CANONICAL-ROLES.md.
Build & test
cd ZB.MOM.WW.Auth
dotnet build -c Release # 0 warnings
dotnet test # 215 passing, 1 skipped (opt-in LDAP integration test) — verified 2026-07-18
dotnet pack -c Release -o ./artifacts # → 4 nupkgs (feed is at 0.1.4)
Stack: .NET 10 · xUnit · Novell.Directory.Ldap.NETStandard · Microsoft.Data.Sqlite · central
package management. The packages are libraries linked into each consumer — there is no
central auth service. More detail: ZB.MOM.WW.Auth/README.md.
The optional LDAP integration test is opt-in:
ZB_LDAP_IT=1 dotnet test # requires a reachable GLAuth (e.g. a sister repo's infra/glauth)

Open
- ⬜ Adopt a clustered secrets topology in ScadaBridge / OtOpcUa — config + a shared KEK, no code
change.
0.2.0is on the feed.components/secrets/GAPS.md. - ⬜ Bump the four Secrets consumers
0.1.2→0.1.3/0.2.0(KEK rotation + the same security fix). - ⬜ Clear the pre-existing
AngleSharpNU1902 build break in ScadaBridgeCentralUI.Testsand HistorianGatewayTests— both fail full-solution builds underTreatWarningsAsErrors. - ⬜ Adopt
ZB.MOM.WW.LocalDbin an app — no consumer references it yet. - ⬜ Give LocalDb a
components/localdb/entry; it is the one shared lib whose design lives only indocs/plans/2026-07-17-localdb-design.md. - ⬜ Converge the Auth version pins (OtOpcUa is three minors behind at
0.1.1). - ⬜ Normalize the next cross-cutting component.
