stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 5b122341d5 New run: start a run from the app, on the working copy
The site promises simulated inputs and mocked sensor values, and nothing in
the app was that. A run already is: the values are the caller's, the state is
the run's own namespace, and nothing it computes reaches the live flow. What
was missing was a screen to do it from, and the draft flag being honoured.

`/runs/new` is a flow, a field per declared input, a seed and Run; `/runs`
stays the log. A comma-separated list in a number field expands into the grid
`fluksio sweep --param` builds and goes to the sweep route, so launching one
no longer needs a terminal. Only numbers split: a comma in a string is
content, and one in JSON is syntax.

`RunCreate.draft` was validated at submit and dropped before the run
executed, so "try the working copy" ran the published one. `Run.draft` is a
column now, the driver reads the same copy the submit checked, and a retry
carries it. `FlowSummary.mode` came with it so the rail can say which flows
are batch before one is picked.

Also here: a Retry button on a finished run, which the route has always had
and the UI never did, and parameter cells truncated to their column with the
full value on hover.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 d471614e6a Push a frame instead of storing and fetching it
The rate the media dtypes could carry was one frame every second or two: each
was a file on the data volume, an event on the socket, and a request back for
the bytes. This closes both halves of that, and they are one feature.

`save_artifact(..., volatile=True)` writes to a `VolatileStore` — the same
content-addressed store, in `/dev/shm`, bounded by size with the oldest falling
out (`ARTIFACT_VOLATILE_BYTES`, 48 MB under the container's raised `shm_size`).
Nothing sweeps it: a frame nobody kept is not worth walking the store to find.
`ArtifactStore.path` falls through to it, which is what lets a volatile frame be
an ordinary reference everywhere else — the dtype check, a panel's digest scope,
`load_artifact` in a node, and the widget's own fetch all work on one unchanged.
`adopt` copies one into the store when a run records it, so "returned media is
kept, emitted media is not" stays true.

The bytes then go down the flows websocket as a length-prefixed binary frame,
sent just ahead of the `message_value` naming them, so a tile has the frame when
it hears the value moved. Nothing is pushed unasked: a client names the messages
it is drawing (`{"type":"media","names":[…]}`), a panel's list is intersected
with the scope it already had, and only the newest frame per name in a batch is
sent — a client that fell behind is not handed frames it would draw over. The
tunnel relays text only, so a screen reached through a portal falls back to
fetching, which is why the rate table now has two rows.

Around the edges: the remote worker's fetch cache is bounded at last
(`FLUKSIO_ARTIFACT_CACHE_BYTES`), since content addressing means nothing in it
ever expires and a media stream fills it with chunks nothing asks for twice; a
port carrying an image draws the frame in the node panel rather than only
saying `image/png · frame.png · 1.79kB`; and an edge chip says that much instead
of a line of hash. The media screenshot stops waiting for `networkidle` — a
camera is a socket that never goes quiet, which is the point of it.

serve: refuse a second engine for one data directory whatever port it was
asked for, using the pidfile and a token this directory signed. The check
runs before the database is touched and before the credential is written,
which is what left every later CLI call pointing at a dead port.

The terminal dashboard is three tabs (Overview, Runs, Logs) with the toolbar
following the focused pane, the engine's output goes to serve.log rather than
down a pipe, and closing the screen stops both reader threads so the prompt
comes back. It adopts a running engine on every start, so stop/start and
restart work on one it did not start, and a stop waits for the process to be
gone before the next start. Enrolment reports itself in the modal.

enroll: a new claim code replaces the pairing instead of being refused. The
code is redeemed before anything is written, mappings to a portal being left
are cleared, and a running engine redials when the stored enrolment changes.

runs: an engine re-queues the runs left `queued` by the one before it, and
`fluksio retry <id>` / `retry --group <sweep>` submits an interrupted run
again with the same inputs and group, recorded through Run.parent_id.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 d01a8dad37 Rename Installation to Instance
Follows the portal: the noun is "instance" everywhere the app says it —
UI strings, CLI output, error details, docs and comments. The wire keys
(`instance_id`, `instance_token`) and the hub route this calls move with it.

An existing cloud.json is adopted rather than refused: without the key
alias the dataclass fails to parse, which the caller swallows and reads as
"never enrolled" instead of "reconnect".

`instance_key` on a node type becomes `target_key`. It means the outside
thing a node points at, which is a different sense of the word, and keeping
both would put two meanings of "instance" in one codebase.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 9a5371d4c7 Keep a failed node's traceback on the run
The worker already sent it and the log panel already got it; the failure
outcome kept the one-line error and the node's stdout and dropped the
rest, so reading a failure back meant reproducing it under `run --local`.
It rides in the node's logs now — no schema change, and the API row, the
run detail page and `RunHandle.failures` carry it as they are.

`_record_node` keeps the tail of the log cap rather than the head, so a
chatty node cannot push the traceback past it, and `fluksio run` prints
what each node said when a run does not end ok.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 da528340a9 Cut the round trips a message costs the engine
Measured with `make bench-engine` against a real Redis: 103.6 -> 164.4
messages a second on a five-node chain (p50 latency 2125 -> 1171 ms) and
34.8 -> 63.2 on a fan-out of twenty. Against the memory backend, which is
what a pip install runs on, 262 -> 626.

The two that bought most of it:

- `StateBackend.record` puts a published value, its timestamp, its series
  and its version counter in one round trip. They were four calls building
  four pipelines, and a value crossing an edge pays them twice. A released
  rate-limit hold rides along instead of a DEL per port.
- the readiness check reads a node's inputs and hands them to the node,
  rather than reading the triggering ones to count them and having the node
  read the same keys again a moment later.

`apply_outputs` was a second copy of `_record_outputs` and is now the same
code plus the event that distinguishes it.

The rest, each small:

- `_derive` builds a node-by-id map and a `consumes` index, so dispatching
  an item and publishing a value stop scanning every node in the
  installation.
- `read_all` is memoised against the store revision — it sits on the
  publish path, so a dashboard slider was reading and validating every
  flow file per value. Same mechanism `_wiring` already uses.
- the `message_value` source block is built once per node instead of per
  emission.
- both timer threads ask the queue to promote only when something is
  actually due, which takes an idle engine from ~4 Redis round trips a
  second to one.
- the shared httpx client is bounded (32 connections, one retry); its
  default pool is 100 with no per-host cap, so one slow endpoint could
  take it and every other sender node with it.
- the MQTT and delay nodes no longer log a line per message at INFO.

Robustness, in the same pass:

- `MemoryWorkQueue._done` was a set nothing ever removed from — one entry
  per non-idempotent node per item, for the life of the process, in the
  default configuration. Capped, the way the Redis side expires its
  markers.
- a saturated engine can claim from the due lane past the cascade limit.
  The capacity gate sits in front of the claim, so the due lane's priority
  — decided inside it — did not apply while every slot was held: a motor's
  stop was not behind the long nodes, it was unread. Only after a slot has
  genuinely failed to free for half a second, and briefly, so the backlog
  is not starved in turn.
- `reclaim_stale` dispatches through that same gate. It could return sixty
  entries and push in-flight far past the limit the gate exists to hold.
- a flow's nodes are stopped together rather than one after another. Each
  gets `NODE_STOP_TIMEOUT`, so a flow whose broker was unreachable took
  five seconds per node — long enough to outlast `REBUILD_WAIT` and 503
  the deploy.
- the worker pool and the HTTP client are closed on a thread, not on the
  event loop, and a run closes the state backend it built (on Redis, a
  client and a connection pool per run).
- the five background tasks say something when they die. Each catches
  exceptions inside its loop, so one raised anywhere else left the engine
  serving with no metrics, no alerts or no artifact sweep, silently.

`tests/flow/test_round_trips.py` counts the state operations one message
costs — four, where it was about eleven — because none of the above would
fail a behavioural test if it were undone.

Three things the first pass left.

`serve` now names the flows asking for a GPU when the engine has none
declared. The placer already warned, but into the log, where a fresh install
that forgot `--gpus` does not read it — and the cost of missing it is GPU
nodes running concurrently, which is what the declaration exists to prevent.

The seed was the one field an export still had to coalesce: `--seed 1`
filled the run-level column and left `param.seed` blank, while a declared
seed filled the parameter and left the column blank. It is resolved like
every other input now, and the column carries the seed the run actually used
however it arrived — including when a parameter outranks the run's own,
where the column used to report the one that lost.

And the docs say plainly that declaring the card is what buys the worker
retirement: a node that imports jax without `resources={"gpus": 1}` never
gets CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, so nothing marks its worker as one holding a card.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 53b49e5f68 Retire the GPU workers when a run that held a card finishes
A worker that has run a jax node keeps holding the GPU after the run: XLA
preallocates most of the VRAM at import and never releases it, so the next
process OOMs on preallocation while a warm idle worker sits on the card.
Pools are kept warm on purpose — a library reads its environment at import,
so a warm worker cannot be re-told — but the end of a run is a point where
the memory should go back, and the environments carrying a GPU assignment
are exactly the pools that ran on one. Idle ones go now, busy ones when
they return.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 c050a7a52c Record the inputs a run actually starts from, not only the ones passed
A run submitted without explicit inputs recorded `params = {}`: Port
initials filled the values at node level and were never written back, so an
exported row had a blank `param.*` cell and the runs listing could not tell
a run that took every default from one submitted with those same numbers.
Declared initials are now folded in at submit, explicit values winning, and
the run-level seed still wins over a declared one.

`params_digest` is computed over the resolved values, so it changes shape
once: a run recorded before this does not dedupe against a newer identical
submit, and its stage-cache entries miss once.

`sync` follows each node function's imports through the project's own modules
— stopping at the standard library, at anything installed, and at Fluksio
itself, whose checkout would otherwise be most of every digest — and records
the file list with what it hashed to. The engine hashes those files again when
the run is claimed, so the fingerprint is live rather than a snapshot, and
falls back to what sync recorded when it cannot see them: a remote worker's
runs used to share one empty digest, and therefore one key.

Three things follow. Editing a helper a node calls into re-runs that node, as
before. Editing something the node never reaches no longer re-runs anything —
a notebook two directories away was invalidating every arm. And
`Run.code_digest` is now the hash of its nodes' digests, so it is neither
looser nor tighter than "the code behind these numbers", which is what makes
it worth joining an exported table on.

`sync` says so too: it compares the per-node digest against the stored one, so
a helper edit prints `train: updated (flow, fit)` instead of `unchanged`. The
digest is read when the document is built rather than when the flow is
declared, so a second `sync()` in one process sees an edit between them.

Also: `fluksio runs` shows only the inputs that differ from what the flow
declares, fitted to the terminal, so a flow taking a few kB of json no longer
wraps every line.

Every existing cache entry misses once — the fingerprint changed shape.

Concurrent runs sat at 4 whatever FLOW_MAX_CASCADES said: that setting bounds
cascades, and the run drivers read a hardcoded MAX_PARALLEL nobody could reach.
FLOW_MAX_RUNS is the knob they read now, --max-runs/--max-cascades/--max-workers
are the same three as flags on serve, and the engine says which numbers it
started with — which is the only way to tell that a settings file was read.

Events keep the run they happened in. The payload always carried it and the
persist path dropped it, so reading one run's failures meant filtering the
engine-wide list; a batch run's id reaches those events now too, since a run
has no journaled item to name itself by.

Also: a provisioner's 0 means "no deadline" rather than "cancel on the next
reconcile", and a command that reaches no engine says how to start one.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 40f8ad378d Ask a cluster for a machine when nothing here will do
Slurm is not a machine that attaches and stays; it is a queue somebody else
owns. So nothing here submits a node to it. It submits a job whose payload is an
ordinary worker dialling back in, and everything downstream — the protocol, the
artifacts, cancellation, the books — already worked and did not have to learn
what Slurm is.

The alternative, which Covalent takes, is to stage a serialized call and a
runner onto the login node, poll squeue and copy the result back: a second way
of running a node beside the one that exists. The cost of not doing that is one
assumption, that a compute node can open a connection outward. Where that is
false, _payload is the single method a staged variant would replace.

Clusters are configured in provisioners.json beside the alerts, since this is
infrastructure an operator writes rather than anything a flow says. The script
is generated with the system ssh and no new dependency, and prerun owns the
environment — deliberately no pip install, because what is on a cluster is
somebody's decision.

One outstanding request per profile, cancelled if it never attaches and on the
way out. Nothing autoscales.

The run gate needed the same hook: a run held before it starts never reaches the
placer's own wait, so it would have queued forever on a machine nothing had
asked for.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 6ff56533f5 Schedule a node across every machine, not just this one
The engine answered "where does this node run" twice, in two ways that could
not see each other: a device sent it to a worker carrying that label, and
resources were counted against the engine's own cores. Declaring both meant the
second answer won and nothing was counted at all — which the data-science
getting-started page and the worked example both do.

One question now, in flow/placement.py: of every machine attached, which could
grant what this node asked for, and which of those has it free. The books move
onto each machine — one accountant per worker, built from the inventory it
reported — and the waiting moves above them, where one condition variable can
be woken by a release anywhere or by a worker attaching. Locks go one way:
placer, then a machine's books, never back.

So a node asking for a card now finds the box that has one, rather than being
clamped down to none and run here. When nothing can grant the ask at all it is
still cut down and run — a flow written on a cluster has to work on a laptop —
but the ceiling is one real machine now, since taking the largest of each
dimension separately can describe a machine nobody has.

Two things fixed on the way. A device on a connector node held every batch run
of its flow forever, waiting for a worker that could never run an entry point.
And `prefer` falling back to the engine skipped the books, so the fallback held
nothing.

The bench flow's node has taken a `params` argument that with_settings has not
forwarded for some time, so the benchmark could not run at all: 62 ms median
submit-to-result with this, against the 61 ms on record.

A port may now declare `image`, `audio` or `video`. Each is the artifact
reference the engine already had, narrowed by the `media_type` on it, so a
speech recogniser declares what it eats rather than taking any bytes at all and
finding out. Bytes still never travel as a message and nothing on the wire
stops being JSON: a camera publishes one reference per frame, a microphone one
per chunk, and a reference may carry a `meta` dict nothing here interprets.

Streaming media is therefore an ordinary streaming port — with one change to
what that means. An emission used to journal an item with no payload, so
downstream read whatever was current when the item was claimed; a consumer
slower than its producer saw only the newest chunk and the ones between were
lost. That is right for a training curve and wrong for a second of speech, so
an emission now journals a `kind="emission"` item carrying its values, and the
executor hands them to the nodes reading that message instead of writing them
to state again. The value in state stays the latest, which is what everything
else reads, and the wave is filtered by what actually changed rather than
walking everything reachable. No queue serialization change — the existing
`outputs` field carries it.

Continuous media makes the store's missing GC a real problem, so this closes
it: `sweep_artifacts` runs hourly, keeps every digest a `run_artifact` row
records or a live message holds, spares anything written in the last hour, and
stands aside entirely while a run is in flight, since a node may store a
checkpoint long before it returns the reference to it. That also collects the
orphans a deleted flow has always left behind. `ARTIFACT_GC_INTERVAL_S=0` turns
it off.

Around the edges: `GET /artifacts/{digest}` serves the media type the caller
passes and answers ranged requests, so a browser plays a clip rather than
downloading it; `PUT` spools to disk instead of holding the whole body in
memory, as does `save_artifact` given a path; a Media widget draws whatever its
message points at, and a wall panel may fetch the bytes its own tiles are
showing and nothing else; and a connector gets `save_artifact`, for a device
whose readings are bytes.

What this cannot do is live video: a frame every second or two is a glance, and
the honest answer above that is the camera's own stream, which the widget takes
as a URL and the browser plays from source.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 4f3eaf950c Report a published node that has no code of its own
The store answers the new-node template when nothing was ever written for a
node, so such a node ran — returning {} on every call, reporting active and
ok, and saying nothing anywhere. Unreachable through `fluksio sync`, which
writes every body before it publishes; the editor end was open.

A run of a flow holding one is now refused, and the flow carries a
missing_source issue so it is visible before anybody runs it. A draft is
exempt: a node being written legitimately has no published body yet.

The generated client is regenerated for the new issue code, which also
catches up the drift left by earlier backend work (resources, code_digest,
idempotency_key).

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 2e82367926 Keep the file name a node gave an artifact
A run_artifact row is keyed by the message the bytes left on, and that was
also the only name it could answer with — so an `@run:` reference resolved
through the row was the same bytes under a name its producer never chose.
The row now records the file name beside the message name; rows written
before the column answer as they always did.

The fallback also checks the bytes are still in the store, which the bare
digest spelling beside it has always done. A missing blob now fails at
submit rather than in the middle of the run that wanted it.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 4a38c6ed31 Name the code a run ran, and let an interrupted sync finish
Three faults with one root: the stored body of a code-defined node is an
import shim, and nothing that mattered was ever read from the code itself.

- The run stamp could not identify what ran. The shim imports whatever is on
  disk when the worker starts, and an uncommitted tree stamps <commit>-dirty
  for every run it ever produces. Run.code_digest hashes the repository's .py
  files, memoized on their stat state, and it is read again when the run is
  actually claimed -- so a sweep queued for hours records the code each of its
  runs executed, not the code that was there when it was submitted.
- The stage cache adopted code that was too new. The fingerprint hashed the
  shim, which is invariant under any edit to the imported function or anything
  it calls into, so a re-run was served from cache and answered without the
  outputs the edit added. It now carries the repo digest and the node's
  declared ports. Every fingerprint changes once, which invalidates the
  existing cache; a canvas flow has no repository and keys as before.
- An interrupted sync looked like a hand-edited canvas. The engine answers a
  new-node template for a node with no stored body, and the template carries
  no marker, so the drift check read "somebody edited this" and demanded
  --force -- for the one state that re-running the sync is the fix for.
  NodeSource.missing states the fact, and sync skips those and reuses the
  bodies it read instead of asking for each one twice.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 1f7c6646f1 Survive a busy engine: retry, idempotent submit, resilient waiting
A driver script died of one slow answer: httpx.ReadTimeout out of
RunHandle.refresh() with a 30 s read timeout and no retry anywhere, which
cost a sweep 78 of its 84 runs.

- Split the timeout (5 s connect, 120 s read): a wrong URL fails at once,
  and a busy engine gets longer than the slowest thing it does on purpose
  (a 60 s compile, a 15 s rebuild wait).
- Retry idempotent calls three times on a transport error or 502/503/504.
  503 is the engine's own "ask again" — it is what RebuildBusy answers.
- Submit carries a key the engine stores with the run, so a retry after a
  timeout returns that run instead of starting a second. A sweep keys every
  entry, so a half-created one recreates only what is missing.
- wait() and --follow tolerate five failed polls in a row; a 404 still stops
  at once, because that is an answer rather than a gap.
- CLI says "engine not answering" and names the run still on the engine,
  instead of printing a traceback.
- runs: clamp the params column to 80 characters; events() takes the
  flow/since/until the endpoint already had; RunHandle.failures answers
  "what killed this run" from the run's own node rows.

A cache hit still replays no emissions — those values were the story of an
execution that is not happening — but the run they were recorded in is now
written on the row (`run_node.cached_from`), and the metrics endpoints read the
series back from there. So a reused run answers `run.metrics("train.loss")`
with the same points the run that trained did, rather than looking like a run
that produced no numbers at all. Pointed at rather than copied: a sweep of 500
reusing one frozen node would otherwise duplicate its curve 500 times.

That needed the cross-flow restore fixed first. The cache key has no flow in
it while the stored outputs are named for the flow that produced them, so
`quick.prepare` getting a hit from `train` wrote `train.dataset` into `quick`'s
state and the next node was called without its argument. One rule now covers
both halves: `requalify` reads a name owned by one flow as the same name in
another, applied to the restored outputs, to the node id behind the pointer,
and to the series names on the way out. Reuse across flows is kept.

Also: `@run:<id>.<output>` and a bare `sha256:` digest resolve on every input,
not only artifacts. Chaining a run's json config into the next one from a shell
meant pasting the whole object inline, and the CLI could not even send the
spelling — `_coerce` died in `json.loads` before the engine saw it. Both
spellings are reserved on every input now, `str` included, and `_from_run`
returns whatever the run's result holds rather than only a reference.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 93374a310e Refuse what a node cannot publish, and stop timing out work that is fine
Four things the python SDK turned up, each fixed where every client sees it.

A key no port declares is now an error rather than a silent drop, on the
return, the yield and the emit alike — the contract the docs already stated.
The SDK reads literal yields at sync time, so a typo fails before anything
runs, and an emission of one fails the call rather than being logged where
nobody looks.

NaN and infinity are refused at the port. JSON cannot spell either, so one
that travelled came back as a 500, a socket frame that stopped the canvas, or
a metric batch the database dropped whole.

An artifact input takes `@run:<id>.<output>` or a bare digest, resolved on the
engine — so the CLI, the run dialog and a python caller mean the same thing,
and a sweep can pass one at all.

Node timeouts are off by default. The clock measured silence, which a training
node is full of, and remote workers had already stopped enforcing it — their
heartbeat reset it. Now a heartbeat proves the agent rather than the node,
ninety seconds of nothing fails the call either way, and the engine touches
work it is still running so a long node is not redelivered at sixty seconds.

A code node in a batch run is now fingerprinted by its source, its raw
settings and the values it reads — an artifact input counting as its digest,
which is what the content addressing was always for. A run that finds the key
restores what the earlier one returned and skips the node, recorded as
`cached`. The run history is the cache: `run_node.outputs` beside the
`cache_key` the schema already had, no second store. On for code nodes, never
for the built-in and connector types that have side effects; off per node with
`@node(cache=False)` and per run with `--no-cache`.

Emissions are not replayed on a hit, so a cached training node returns its
result without redrawing its curve. Recorded in NOTEPAD.md with the two other
deliberate limits.

`fluksio run --local` boots the real app in the command's own process and
drives it through its ASGI interface behind the ordinary client, so a run no
longer needs a `serve` terminal beside it — same data directory, same history,
and the cache carries between the two. It always waits, because the engine it
starts lives exactly as long as the command.

Also: `fluksio sweep --param lr=0.1,0.01` for the product of the lists,
`run --follow` for a run's numbers as they arrive, Ctrl-C cancelling a waited
run rather than abandoning it, coloured statuses on a terminal, and `name`
made optional on the metrics endpoint so a follower can ask for every series.

Playwright Tests / merge-reports (push) Canceled after 1s
The gates have never gone green on the new runners. Three separate reasons:

- backend/Dockerfile shipped Python 3.10 while the code imports typing.Self
  and datetime.UTC, so the container exited on import and the suite could not
  even load its conftest. The image moves to 3.13 and the packages declare
  >=3.12, which is the floor the tests actually pass on; ruff's target follows
  and rewrites timezone.utc and asyncio.TimeoutError accordingly. Relocking
  drops the 3.10 branch, which bumps FastAPI and so regenerates the SDK.
- frontend/README.md had no trailing newline and two dashboard widgets used
  arbitrary text-[…] sizes. Both are em-relative on purpose, so they move to
  the inline style the neighbouring ramp already uses.
- Every commit left its own run queued: without a concurrency group a runner
  that was offline for a while works through a backlog nobody reads. A stack
  that fails to come up now prints its logs before the teardown removes it.

stroblmeandClaude Fable 5 a38e2745eb Add a Python SDK: flows declared in your own repository
A data scientist keeps their code where it is and decorates it: `@node`
declares a function's ports beside the function, `Flow(name, nodes=[...])`
says which of them make a flow, and `use(fn, wire=..., **settings)` rebinds
one for a single flow. `fluksio sync` uploads the document plus a generated
import shim per node, so the store still holds a complete, runnable,
git-versioned definition while the code it imports stays theirs.

`fluksio login|run|runs` and `flow.submit().wait()` are the client half, over
the run endpoints that already existed. Runs record the user repository's
commit beside the store's, so "what code produced this number" is answerable
on the side that now holds the code.

- `fluksio/sdk/`: ports, decorators, the flow builder and its checks, the shim
  generator, an HTTP client and sync. Standard library only at import, so
  `from fluksio import node` in a training script pulls in no engine.
- `FlowDef.origin` marks a flow code-defined; `Run.origin_commit` carries the
  repository's commit; `POST /modules/refresh` retires the workers without an
  install, which every sync calls — a worker holds the imported package in
  memory, so an edit to it is invisible until the process goes.
- The canvas shows a generated body read-only and names the repository to edit
  instead; a body edited there stops the next sync rather than being discarded.
- The worker's reporter carries inert `Port`, `node`, `use` and `Flow`, since
  the shim imports a module whose first line declares them.
- `examples/myresearch` is the worked example, `make sync-example` uploads it.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 961a8f881d Keep the engine's state in SQLite, not Postgres
One process owns this database — the image has run a single uvicorn
worker for that reason since the four-engines bug — so a file beside the
flows is the honest shape for it, and it is what lets `fluksio serve`
need no infrastructure at all. Live values, node execution and the work
queue never came here anyway; what does is a rollup a minute at a time,
a row per cascade and the run history, and WAL keeps the readers going
while that one writer works.

DATA_DIR is now the one setting that moves everything an installation
keeps; the rest derive from it and the images still spell theirs out.
The schema is prepared in-process at startup, so the prestart service is
gone, and the ten Postgres-only revisions collapse into one portable
baseline.

Three things only worked because psycopg was casting for us: a token's
subject arriving as a string where the column is a UUID, `greatest`, and
`date_bin`. The timestamps needed a column type of their own — SQLite
stores no offset, and a naive datetime read back either raises against an
aware `now` or serialises as local time.

Postgres stays in the stack only for Umami, behind the analytics profile.

stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 60d7ec81c0 Rename the import package app to fluksio
A wheel whose top-level module is `app` collides with anything else in a
user's venv, so the package that is about to be published takes the name
it is published under. Only the Python package moves; the repo, the
Docker WORKDIR and the compose project keep theirs.
