The pane is already closed by the time spaces.closeTab runs, so a failing
tab.close is cosmetic workspace tidying, not a real teardown failure. Left
bare, it propagated out of stop() and masked releaseZdotdir (ZDOTDIR leak)
and, worse, SessionManager.release()'s worktree removal (no self-heal,
no retry — the registry entry is already gone by then).
Wrap it in a try/catch that logs a WARN naming the tab id, matching the
"must not mask a real teardown failure above" comment already on
releaseZdotdir. isAlreadyGone is untouched — this continues past *any*
tab.close failure, not just *_not_found, since the failure is cosmetic
regardless of its cause.
Adds FakeHerdr#tabCloseFailsWith/tabCloseFailsForTab (the tab.close
counterpart to #290's paneCloseFailsForPane) plus two tests: one proving
releaseZdotdir still runs (the generated ZDOTDIR is deleted) and one
proving SessionManager.release() still removes the worktree, both with a
non-not_found tab.close failure.
#283 fixed release() to catch and log a worktree-removal failure, which closed off
reapIdleCountsAllThreeSessionsWhenOnlyItsWorktreeRemovalFails as a trigger for
reapIdle's own per-session try/catch (CB-581) — that test now proves a different,
still-real thing (a swallowed removal failure doesn't shrink the reaped count),
but the try/catch itself lost its test.
Add FakeHerdr.paneCloseFailsForPane(paneId, code) so a test can make exactly one
session's launcher.stop() fail while its siblings still tear down normally
(paneCloseFailsWith already existed but fails every pane, which cannot isolate
one session in a three-session reap). Add
reapIdleSurvivesOneSessionWhoseLauncherStopFails beside the #283 test, using
launcher.stop() as the trigger the ticket names, and prove it catches removal of
reapIdle's try/catch: deleting the guard makes the test fail with the
HerdrException propagating out of reapIdle uncaught (quoted in the PR body).
Two corrections on top of the merged worker branches.
#284: I told the worker to report a BACKEND_ERROR/FAILED session as
reclaimable. That half of my own ticket was wrong. Once the live count
stops counting a terminal session, its seat is already in `free`;
counting it in `reclaimable` too reports the same seat twice, and
`free + reclaimable` reads as more capacity than maxLoad allows. Worse,
only the profile-level count was widened, so the same fleet_list
response said `reclaimable: 2` while every member row said
`reclaimable: false`.
Both views now call one shared predicate, FleetMcp.reclaimable, so they
cannot drift apart. A test runs it over every MemberSession.State value,
so a state added later cannot slip through unconsidered.
#285: the new per-file chgrp+chmod helper moved from ClaudeCodeLauncher
into EnvAllowListScrub as shareFileWithGroup, next to the directory-wide
shareWithGroup it was copied from. It now reuses that class's own
setGroupAndPermissions and also catches UnsupportedOperationException,
which the copy missed — on a filesystem without POSIX group ownership
the copy threw a raw runtime exception instead of the sibling's
UncheckedIOException.
Measured after merging: removing the guard alone leaves the new test green,
because ask() calls markAsyncQuestion before resolveQuestion, so the task has
already moved to the new turnId. The PR claimed each half was necessary; only
the pair is. Keeping the guard, with the ordering written down so nobody
deletes it as dead code or trusts it as the only protection.
seedTrustDialog gated only on isProvisionedWorktree(cwd) and, being static, could not
see memberHerdrSocketConfigured() — unlike its sibling writeCharterFile, which already
refuses the spawn when it cannot place a file where a different-uid member can read it.
Under memberHerdrSocket + configDir unset, seedTrustDialog wrote fleetd's OWN
~/.claude.json while believing it was seeding the member's, reintroducing the fleetd
#149 failure (interactive trust dialog, no fleet_reply, silent readiness timeout) for
this one config combination.
Makes seedTrustDialog an instance method so it can see memberHerdrSocketConfigured()
and memberGroup(), and applies writeCharterFile's "refuse, don't degrade" rule: under
memberHerdrSocket it now requires both configDir and worktreeGroup before touching any
file, naming exactly which is missing, and shares the written .claude.json group-
readable (rw-r-----) via a new shareTrustJsonWithGroup so the member's OS user can
actually open it. The memberHerdrSocket-absent path (today's only live mode) is
unchanged.
answer() opened a fresh forward waiter but, unlike send(), never
registered it in asyncTasksByWaiter. So when a worker chained a
second fleet_ask inside the same resumed turn (before calling
fleet_reply), markAsyncQuestion had no Task to re-associate, and
answer() then completed the async ticket's future with the second
QUESTION as if it were a terminal reply — fleet_poll reported FAILED
while the worker was still alive and mid-conversation.
Fix: register answer()'s waiter in asyncTasksByWaiter (mirroring
send()) so a chained ask can re-arm the ticket under its new turnId,
and guard answer()'s finishAsyncTask call the same way sendAsync's
own lambda already does (skip on Outcome.QUESTION). Also drop the
stale asyncTasksByTurn entry left behind when markAsyncQuestion
re-arms a task under a new turnId, a leak the fix makes reachable
for the first time.
Reachability confirmed by driving the exact sequence through the
public API (sendAsync -> ask -> answer -> ask again) in a new test;
reverting the production change makes it fail with
"expected: <ASKING> but was: <FAILED>", confirming it catches the
regression.
Two teardown-cleanup leaks in SessionManager, same shape as #274.
Defect 1: release()'s last step (removing a released session's worktree)
was the one cleanup step in the method left unguarded, even though every
sibling step is wrapped because exec() can throw on a non-zero exit or its
own 30s timeout. By the time it ran, the registry entry, retained handle,
and pane were already gone, so a throw here escaped release() with no
retry path and made a fully-torn-down session look like a failed stop.
Now wrapped in try/catch with a WARN, matching the pattern already used
by every other step in this method.
Defect 2: acquireWithWorktree's catch (covering failures after add()
returns — overlayParity, shareWithGroup, launcher.spawn) removed the
worktree but left the branch it provisioned orphaned. #274 already fixed
the sibling failure inside add() itself (GitWorktrees.cleanupAfterAddFailure
deletes both). Extracted that branch-delete into a new Worktrees.deleteBranch
method, reused by both cleanupAfterAddFailure and this catch, so a routine
spawn failure (quarantined credential, backend refusal) no longer leaks a
worker/<slug>-<nonce> branch.
A normal release() still never deletes a branch — only the failed-provision
path does. releaseRemovesWorktreeButDoesNotDeleteBranch pins this, and
spawnFailureAfterAddDeletesTheOrphanedBranch / unchangedRegression* prove
the two paths stay apart.
A member torn down while parked in fleet_ask left its async ticket pending
for good. resolveQuestion had already closed the forward waiter, so
abandon()'s waiter branch found nothing; the 'question == null' guard then
excluded the task from the matching loop. By the time the worker's own ask
lapsed (~55-115s), the released session was gone from the roster, so
nothing was left to call abandon() on that target again. fleet_poll{ticket}
reported PENDING forever.
The ticket told the worker to drop the 'question == null' guard. That was
wrong, and the worker said so with evidence: an existing test
(abandonDoesNotFailAnAsyncTicketWaitingForAnAnswer) deliberately pins that
an ASKING ticket must SURVIVE abandon(), because the primary may be mid
answer() for that same turn. Widening the shared method would have traded
this bug for a worse one — a health guess killing a live conversation.
So the fix splits the two callers by what they actually know:
- sessions.onRelease (fleet_stop / idle reaper) knows the pane is being
stopped right now, so it sweeps: sweepAsking=true.
- FleetHealthMonitor keeps sweepAsking=false. GONE/NEVER_READY is a
classification from the live agent list, not a teardown it performed.
I verified the reachability chain myself rather than taking it on trust.
FleetHealth.decide returns GONE before it can ever return
DELEGATION_ORPHANED; FleetHealthMonitor.reportTransition returns early when
previous == next; and terminal() is GONE/NEVER_READY only. So after the one
GONE transition fires and no-ops, nothing re-fires. Every link holds.
Verified: the real merge into current main builds green (1283 tests), the
protective test still passes untouched, and my own mutation — reverting the
sweepAsking widening — fails the new test with 'a released target's open ask
can never resume, so it must fail right here'.
GitWorktrees.add() created the worktree and branch, then ran more steps that
can throw — requireCredentialFreeHttpsOrigin among them, which is an
intended security refusal, not an IO accident. Any throw meant add() never
returned, so SessionManager.acquireWithWorktree never learned the path, its
'if (path != null)' cleanup could not fire, and the worktree and branch
leaked with nothing tracking them. Every OTHER exit from that method was
cleaned up correctly; only the exits inside add() were uncounted.
add() now cleans up what it created before rethrowing, reusing remove() and
additionally deleting the branch — a branch that never finished provisioning
has no session and no PR behind it. Worktree first, since a checked-out
branch cannot be deleted. Cleanup failure is logged and never masks the
original exception.
Verified by me: the real merge into current main builds green (1281 tests),
and I reran the mutation myself without git stash — dropping the cleanup
call fails the new test with 'the worktree directory leaked after a
post-creation step threw'.
The test drives add() itself through the existing afterWorktreeAdded seam,
so the failure happens after the worktree exists rather than downstream in
another caller.
Confirmed reachable: a target torn down for good (fleet_stop / the idle
reaper) while its async ticket sits in fleet_ask (Phase.ASKING) got
permanently stuck. resolveQuestion already closes the forward waiter, the
question == null guard excluded the task from abandon()'s sweep, and by the
time the worker's own fleet_ask lapses (~55-115s) the released session no
longer appears in FleetHealthMonitor's roster, so nothing ever calls
abandon() again. fleet_poll{ticket} then reports PENDING forever.
Add abandon(target, reason, sweepAsking) — sessions.onRelease (a definite
teardown: the pane is being stopped right now) passes true and now fails the
ASKING ticket and closes its reverse-rendezvous ask. FleetHealthMonitor's
health-classification call keeps the 2-arg overload (sweepAsking=false):
a GONE/NEVER_READY reading is a guess from the live agent list, not a
teardown it performed, and abandonDoesNotFailAnAsyncTicketWaitingForAnAnswer
already covers why an active ask must survive that guess (the primary may
be mid-answer for the same turn). hasOrphanedDelegation is left unchanged
for the same reason — it must not flag a live, active ask as orphaned.
Proven with a test driving the real public sequence (sendAsync -> ask ->
abandon(..., true)), not a hand-built task map; reverted the widening to
confirm it goes red, then restored it.
A worker's worktree is isolated; refs/stash is not. It is one stack shared
by the primary's checkout and every worker worktree of this repo.
This bit a real worker today. Two ran in parallel; one called git stash
while the other was mid-edit, and the second worker's in-progress change
was silently overwritten by the first's stashed content. It recovered by
retyping the edit and diffing to confirm, and pushed the other worker's
change back onto the stack untouched — but nothing warned either of them,
and nothing would have.
Measured before writing this: 'git stash list' from a worker worktree and
from the primary's checkout return byte-identical output, and refs/stash
is a single common ref, not a per-worktree one.
The branch already IS the isolation, so the skill now points at committing
a wip commit or writing a patch file instead.
A malformed exhaustedPattern passed FleetConfig.load and then crashed the
daemon at startup, in Fleetd.main's unguarded Pattern.compile, with a
message naming neither the profile nor the key. Its sibling errorPattern
had a load-time validator whose own javadoc explains exactly why that is
bad. The validator was correct; its coverage was not.
rejectMalformedErrorPattern becomes rejectMalformedProfilePatterns and now
compiles both keys, reporting failures from either in one message.
Verified by me, not taken on the worker's word: the actual merge of this
branch into main builds green (1280 tests), and I reran the mutation myself
— narrowing the loop back to errorPattern turns exactly the two new tests
red, one of them with 'Expected IllegalStateException to be thrown, but
nothing was thrown', which is the defect stated out loud.
GitWorktrees.add() created the worktree and branch, then ran several more
steps that can throw (requireCredentialFreeHttpsOrigin — an intended
security refusal, not only an IO accident — plus the credential-helper and
tool-surface isolation steps). Any exception there meant add() never
returned, so its caller (SessionManager#acquireWithWorktree) never learned
the path: its local `path` stayed null, the `if (path != null)` cleanup
guard never ran, and the worktree directory and branch leaked on disk
forever with nothing tracking them.
Wrap those steps in try/catch; on failure, clean up via the same
`git worktree remove --force` path remove() already uses, additionally
force-delete the new branch (remove() alone deliberately leaves a
released session's branch behind, but a branch that never finished
provisioning has nothing else pointing at it), log the cleanup outcome,
and rethrow the original exception so it is never masked.
Test drives add() itself via the existing afterWorktreeAdded seam with a
mutation that trips requireCredentialFreeHttpsOrigin after the worktree
exists, then asserts both the worktree directory and the branch are gone.
Reverting the fix (git stash on GitWorktrees.java, test unchanged) turns
it red: "the worktree directory leaked after a post-creation step threw
==> expected: <false> but was: <true>". Restored afterward.
mvn clean install: BUILD SUCCESS, Tests run: 1275, Failures: 0, Errors: 0
FleetConfig.rejectMalformedErrorPattern only compiled errorPattern eagerly
at config load. exhaustedPattern was compiled unguarded in Fleetd.main,
so profiles.<name>.exhaustedPattern: "[" passed load() and then crashed
the whole daemon at boot with a raw PatternSyntaxException naming neither
the profile nor the key.
Rename the validator to rejectMalformedProfilePatterns and extend it to
also compile every non-blank exhaustedPattern, reporting
profiles.<name>.exhaustedPattern ("<value>"): <message> in the same style
as errorPattern. Both keys are collected and reported together from a
single load. Fleetd.java's compile site is left as-is per scope — it is
now safe because load already rejects a bad value.
Added tests covering: a bad exhaustedPattern is refused; a bad pattern in
each key is reported together in one message; valid patterns still load;
a blank/absent exhaustedPattern is ignored.
A gap in my own #269 fix. That ticket stopped four sites claiming things
about the member's environment that fleetd cannot see when memberHerdrSocket
is configured, and gave the WARN in logCredentialGap a guard. The INFO line
called two lines earlier never got one:
logAllowListCoverage(allowed); // no guard
logCredentialGap(creds, allowed); // guarded since #269
Read plainly, "member credentials: allowed 7 of 39" is a statement about the
member's credentials. Under memberHerdrSocket the pane is routed to a second
herdr whose environment fleetd has no channel to inspect, so those counts
come from fleetd's own process instead. Same overclaim #269 existed to
remove, in the line next door.
The method's javadoc does carry the caveat, by cross-reference to another
field's javadoc. That does not help the operator reading fleetd.out.
The counts stay useful, so this is not a WARN and not a refusal — only the
claim is narrowed. The unguarded path keeps its exact original wording, so
the existing assertion on "member credentials: allowed 1 of 3" still holds.
The new test pins the pair together so a later edit cannot fix one line and
leave the other. Mutation-proved: with the guard removed it fails printing
the old line verbatim.
Also worth recording: no test covered #269's own guard — that WARN wording
shipped unverified, and still has no coverage.
fleet_poll is two operations behind one tool name. With `ticket` it observes
an async delegation and changes nothing. With `target` it calls
MessageService.drainReplies, which REMOVES the replies — a second call
returns nothing.
The handler gated both branches with a constant Authz.Action.READ, and did
not pass the target at all. READ is open to every authenticated role, so any
worker could read a peer's sessionId out of fleet_list and destroy the
replies that peer had queued for the primary. The gate failed open, and a
drained reply is not recoverable.
Three things already said the tight gate was intended:
- fleet_ack, four lines below, gates the same drain as DRAIN, with a
comment giving the exact reasoning missed here ("Acking removes a reply
from the inbox, so it is a drain, not a read").
- the REST path checks DRAIN in FleetApp.drainReplies.
- wiki/2-Message-Server.md lists fleet_poll as lead-only, and the tool
schema says "drain that worker's inbox".
Nothing that works today breaks: the documented flow is fleet_poll{target}
then fleet_ack{target,msgId}, and fleet_ack is already primary-only. A
worker could never complete that flow — only destroy its first half.
The required action is a function of the arguments, but the handler chose it
before looking at them. pollAction(target) makes that choice explicit. The
ticket branch stays READ on purpose: an architect may fleet_send, so it owns
tickets and must be able to poll them.
Why the suite missed it: FleetMcpAuthzTest checks every Action against every
Role, including "a worker may not DRAIN", and passed the whole time. The
policy table was right; the action fed to it was wrong, and nothing tested
that mapping. The new tests assert against pollAction itself, so the handler
keeps no private copy of the rule.
Mutation-proved: reverting pollAction to a constant READ turns exactly the
two new defect tests red and leaves the ticket-branch test green.
Introduced in 9daf1ec, where Authz.READ's own javadoc ("...task polling")
describes only the ticket half.
OpenCodeLauncher.SessionAwareHandle.agentSessionId() is the only caller of
checkModelMatch (fleetd #175), and it sits behind the fleetd #249 worktree
gate. A spawn with no worktree:true — the ordinary shape of most opencode
spawns — never reached the check at all, and the gap was totally silent.
The check cannot be decoupled from agentSessionId()'s resolved id: doing so
would re-derive 'whatever is newest in the shared directory' and reintroduce
the false-positive risk fleetd #234 fixed (a sibling's differently-configured
model looking like a mismatch for a profile that never actually ran it). The
#249 gate is correct and stays as-is.
Instead, log once per profile at WARN, naming the profile, the same
treatment discoveryUnavailable already gets a few lines above — a logged
UNKNOWN beats a check that silently never runs.
Adds PackageCyclesTest, which fails the build on any new cycle between
the top-level dev.ltms.fleet.* packages. Today's five real cycles are
recorded as narrow, explicit exceptions (ignoreDependency per named
pair, both directions), each commented with the ticket step (or a note
that it needs its own) that removes it. No package moves in this PR.
archunit-junit5 1.5.0 (current stable, newer than an earlier 1.4.1
draft). Main code only (DO_NOT_INCLUDE_TESTS) and importPackages(...)
instead of a working-directory-relative target/classes path.
HerdrPeerLauncher asserted, as established fact, that member panes run under
a different OS user whenever memberHerdrSocket is configured. fleetd has no
channel to see the uid at the other end of a herdr unix socket — an operator
may point memberHerdrSocket at a second herdr under the SAME user for pane
isolation, in which case members do inherit fleetd's environment and the
count this WARN told them to disregard is the real gap.
Reworded the class javadoc on hostEnvNames, the WARN in
warnUnknownMemberEnvironment, the javadoc on memberHerdrSocketConfigured(),
and warnCannotShareScrubDirectory's "unreadable by another uid" claim to say
what is actually true: fleetd cannot confirm what OS user the second herdr
runs as, so the member credential gap is UNKNOWN, not known-clean or
known-dirty. No behaviour change — the fallback paths and the honest
UNKNOWN conclusion stay the same, only the stated reason changes.
Matches the framing already used by Fleetd.reportMemberTrustModel on main.
Added unknownEnvironmentWarnStatesUncertaintyNotAnAssertedDifferentUser to
HerdrPeerLauncherAllowListWiringTest asserting the new WARN wording and that
it no longer claims a different OS user as fact.
The correction removed a false claim (blocking the socket breaks git over
SSH) but took a true one with it: the socket is a live handle to the agent,
so a member holding it can sign with every key the agent holds. Without that,
the entry reads as if the setting does not matter, and an operator has no
reason left not to set it to allow. Fixing an overclaim must not leave an
underclaim.
Also record the measurement and the mistake behind the old claim, so the next
person does not re-argue it from scratch.
The merged fix told the operator to look in journalctl for
"Fleetd.reportRequiredSecrets". That string never appears there — it is a
method name. The logger is d.l.f.Fleetd and the lines read
"startup secret NAME: set|MISSING", so the advice sent the operator looking
for text that does not exist.
Give the grep instead, and say what the report does not cover: it lists only
names a configured profile references, so a secret nothing references is never
reported.
fleet_list's free row subtracted leadSeatCount, but the real spawn gate
(CompositePeerLauncher#enforceMaxLoad) only ever compares live against
maxLoad and never reads leadSeatCount. So free could report 0 while a
fleet_spawn on that exact profile still succeeded, and a lead trusting
free:0 gave up on capacity the gate would still grant.
free now always equals max(0, maxLoad - live); leadSeats stays in the
row as an informational fact, never subtracted. Documented in the
fleet_list tool description and fleetd.example.yaml.
TRUST_JSON_LOCK only serialises seedTrustDialog calls this launcher makes
inside its own JVM. It cannot reach the one writer that actually shares the
target file on a real host: the operator's own live Claude Code, whose
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is routinely the very configDir a profile is given, so the
file fleetd writes on every claude-code spawn is that session's own config.
A plain read-modify-write there is a routine lost update: fleetd reads v1,
the operator's session writes v2, fleetd's ATOMIC_MOVE lands v3 built from
v1 and v2 is gone, atomically.
Add a bounded compare-and-swap: before the move, re-read the target's exact
bytes and compare with what the update was built from; on a mismatch,
rebuild from the fresh bytes and retry (up to 5 attempts). Exhausting the
retries writes nothing and logs a WARN naming the file — the member shows
the trust dialog and fails to reach an injectable state instead, which is
visible and recoverable, unlike silently overwriting the operator's live
config. Also warn every time the seed is about to target the default
~/.claude.json (configDir unset), since that is the unsafe default.
This narrows the lost-update window, it does not close it: a write landing
between the final re-read and the ATOMIC_MOVE itself is still lost.
Ports the intent of the lost CB-576 commit c393600 (worker/cb576-01a04b-17,
never merged, package dev.ltms.bridged.*) onto main's dev.ltms.fleet.*
tree. Adds FakeWorktrees.markGone (tracks which add()'d worktree paths
still "exist", mirroring GitWorktrees.hasUncommitted's Files.exists guard
for the already-gone case) and a regression test,
releaseStillStopsPaneAndNotifiesWhenWorktreeIsGone, asserting that
SessionManager.release still fires notifyReleased, stops the pane, and
falls through to remove() when the worktree is already gone.
Follow-up to #259, found by verifying the guard rather than trusting it.
The scrape read FleetApp's raw source, so a registration disabled with `//`
still matched. Measured: commenting out `app.get("/tasks/{ticket}", ...)` left
the test GREEN, while deleting the same line was caught. Only the commented-out
shape was blind, and it is the silent direction — the inventory would keep
claiming a route the server no longer serves.
Drop whole-line comments before scraping. Only lines starting with //, * or /*
are dropped, deliberately not every // on a line: that would also cut a string
literal containing // (a URL) and could silently delete a real registration
sharing the line. The remaining gap is a trailing comment beside real code; no
registration here has that shape, and the vacuity test catches a scrape that
loses registrations wholesale.
Proof: with the fix, the comment-out mutation fails naming
"Removed ... [GET /tasks/{ticket}]"; reverted, FleetApp.java confirmed clean.
