The channel sends through the Bot API with httpx only: HTML with escaped text,
cut to fit a message, silent for a warning, a short 429 waited out once, and
errors that say what to do about a blocked bot, a lost chat or a bad token and
never quote the request URL. The bot token is a stored secret: saving a
channel refuses a literal one, the card's "Store token" writes the secret and
a reference, and no endpoint returns it.
A chat id is never typed. Connect starts a ten minute code, and the chat that
sends `/start <code>` back through the bot is the one connected, so it is a
chat somebody opened a link for. The engine fetches updates only while a code
is waiting (no standing poll, no webhook, no inbound address) and ignores
everything else without a reply. Connect needs a saved form, and the form
takes the connected chat in without touching what was typed since.
The token is part of every Bot API URL, so the httpx logger gets the same
filter the request lines have, which now also masks an httpx.URL argument.
Any signed-in account could save an ntfy channel with its own `server` and a
`{"$secret": ...}` token and press Test, which sent the stored secret to that
host. The config GET/PUT, the test route and the global search's alert entries
now answer to superusers, like /secrets. The webpush key and subscribe routes
stay open to every account, and the Alerts page shows a non-superuser only the
button for its own browser. The events table in the docs gains run_finished.
/search gains a `setting` category, `<node>.<setting>` under its flow with the
node type and the value in a new `detail` field, so Ctrl-K finds which node
uses a broker or a timeout and opens the node. `setting_text` is the one place
that decides what may be said: a reference to a stored secret shows its name
(to superusers only, as the secrets list does), a plain value in an `x-secret`
field or under a key like password, token or api_key is masked and never
indexed, nested credentials in headers or query are masked, long values are
clipped. The global search ranks what contains the query as typed ahead of
loose spellings before it caps a group, which long setting values would
otherwise have crowded out.
save_artifact/load_artifact outside a node use the worker's own store code in
$FLUKSIO_ARTIFACT_DIR or <tmp>/fluksio-artifacts, so a node can be called by
hand. --follow prints status changes and each node's resource wait; the
placer's waiting snapshot now carries the run. fluksio cancel <run>...
Per the Microcopy rule: size and duration errors, the flavor errors, run
parameter errors, the Resources field descriptions, 401/409/400 details,
secret errors, the websocket node description and its on_connect setting.
The generated client follows.
POST/GET /flows/{name}/nodes/{id}/train submit wren_train on the node's
targets, examples and tests and read its latest run (run.for_node,
cause "train"); "Use this model" writes `model` into the draft.
run_turn takes its tools, system prompt and tool caller; the chat passes the
MCP tools as before. The assistant node offers one tool per wired target,
reads its other inputs as context, streams its reply a sentence at a time,
warms the provider on `listening` and says so when the provider is not there.
Completions share the per-server HTTP client. wren replies when nothing reads
`unhandled`, stt shows a note when nothing was heard. /ai/control lists one
conversation per entry node with the messages to watch.
C4: a device's `viewers` (superusers by default, or members) covers the
image and video messages its ports publish. Anyone else gets none of their
values on the socket, in the catalogue or a flow's state, 403 for their
history, for the frames they hold (the last 8 included) and for TURN
credentials, no bytes when asking for them, and `bye: forbidden` for a live
view. A device credential stays bounded by its dashboards. The device page
sets it in its Camera section, and a tile the viewer may not see says
"No access to this camera" and asks the camera for nothing.
C3:
- A volatile upload is held to MAX_FRAME_BYTES (4 MiB, 413 above it, read
without extra copies), and so is a frame on a device's socket.
- A frame the engine holds in memory is written to the ring directory
before a local worker is handed it, so load_artifact finds it.
- A socket the bus dropped events for catches up with a snapshot, demand
included, and a device's credential is checked again per frame, cached by
the flow store revision and its nonce, so a lost event never keeps an
unpaired device's frames coming.
- A report is at most 64 KB once its named config_schemas are put in place.
- A device away for 60 s has its true bool messages set to false.
- Refused frames are logged by fixed keys, a frame is named after its
message, `fluksio serve` waits 5 s for open connections, a tile with a
stream URL creates no demand, the 8-name cap keeps the newest names.
- Every container's log rotates (json-file, 3 x 10 MB).
A device reporting a `live` port streams its camera to the browser's own
RTCPeerConnection. The flows socket carries the signalling as text, so it
crosses the portal: `live` messages on a person's socket, `signal` on a
device's (start, sdp, candidate, bye, busy). The server routes by session,
holds a device to two viewers, ends a session when either socket closes or
no answer comes within 10 s, and gives each socket an outbox of its own
that ends a session rather than drop a message. TURN credentials are
minted per session in coturn's REST scheme (STUN_URLS, TURN_URLS,
TURN_SECRET), the viewer's with the device's offer; GET /devices/{id}/ice
hands them out too. The tunnel keeps a stream's early frames instead of
dropping them past eight and forgets them when the stream or link goes.
A media tile on a device's camera, and the Devices tab's preview, play
live when tapped, pause frames meanwhile, and fall back to frames with a
short note on busy, failure or no picture within 10 s. coturn is an
optional compose service behind the `turn` profile.
- POST /devices/pair answers a 2-character `check`, listed by /devices/pending
and shown beside each waiting entry; five codes a minute per address, and at
50 waiting the oldest gives way instead of a 429
- portal-minted device tokens are asked for with the device's nonce (`pnc`) and
held against it, so unpair and delete revoke them; one without `pnc` stands
only while the nonce is 0
- a device credential acts as the device (`device_principal`), not as the
approving superuser, so deleting that account unpairs nothing
- the report is validated port by port: unknown enum values read as `unknown`,
unreadable ports and sections are left out and logged, `config` may name an
entry of `config_schemas`; 422 only for no schema 1 or no object
- devices.json is parsed once per change (cached by stat), delete drops the
report and keeps the nonce, a busy recheck runs in the background
- scope and io only from enabled flows (start/stop tells the devices), a port
bound twice gives one io row
- the Devices tab's saves cancel and hold back device refetches until settled
A device reports its board, screen, camera and ports from its own
credential (16 KB, schema 1, replacing the last report), and the flows
are validated against it again. The node panel turns a reported port's
config schema into a form, a reported screen is a canvas preset and a
touch screen's first report turns Touch friendly on. An offline device
node is degraded: amber on the canvas, a warning on Home, never a fault.
- NodeDef `device`/`device_policy` become `worker`/`worker_policy`, the
issue `ignored_device` becomes `ignored_worker`, and the SDK's `@node`
takes `worker=` and `worker_policy=`
- FlowStore._migrate renames the keys in published and draft documents
once, bumping their version; a queued run's `needs` reads the old key
- placement passes the label as `label`, client regenerated
- docs: worker placement wording, MCP issuer without DOMAIN, device rows in
the CLI data directory and the API table, device links in compose comments
- flow/nodes/device.py: `device` node with params `device` and `config`;
provides the device's `in` ports, requires its `out` ports without
waking anything, never run (Node.passive), down "Offline" from presence
- DeviceDef.io and DevicePort go; GET /devices/{id} computes `io` and
`bindings` from the device nodes of published flows, in a fixed order,
cached by FlowStore.revision; the credential's scope comes from them
- issues `unknown_device` and `device_port` (wired twice; against a report
the wrong direction or dtype, or unlisted as advisory), rechecked when a
device is created or deleted; ValidationIssue.advisory is a field
- a device publishing on a bound port is credited to its node by the
server; the panel endpoint kind is gone from `_endpoints` and the canvas
- a rebuild that moves a device's bindings sends `dashboard_changed` with
an empty name, which the firmware refetches on
- startup moves each device's `io` rows into device nodes in the flows
declaring their messages, draft and published, one commit; rows no
flow declares are logged and left out
- frontend: Device node settings (device, Publishes, Follows, a port
picker from a report), palette shortcuts per reported port, DeviceDetail
lists bindings with "Use in flow" in place of the I/O editor
- docs: devices, flow editor, node types, issues, API
- flow/devices.py: DeviceDef in FLOWS_DIR/_devices/<id>.json, committed under
the flow store's write lock, 409 on a stale version; nonces in DEVICES_FILE
outside git; in-memory presence announced as device_status
- api/routes/devices.py: CRUD, pairing with an optional {name, board,
firmware}, a pending list adopted without a code from the LAN only, unpair;
/panels/pair, /panels/pair/{code} and GET /panels/{id} kept as aliases,
PUT /panels/ gone
- _device_may replaces _panel_may, JWT claims unchanged
- panels.json moves into devices once at startup, then .migrated
- MCP list_devices, get_device; search category device
- Devices tab (list, detail with presence, pairing, ordered dashboards,
touch, I/O), PanelsDialog removed, serialised optimistic saves
ai/client.py streams the completion and puts the chunks back together
(Assembler), covering OpenAI's piecewise tool-call arguments, Ollama's whole
calls, OpenRouter's comment lines, unnumbered calls and in-stream errors.
The turn emits a delta event per piece and a message per round as before,
and the chat grows the last answer as deltas arrive.
The hello carries the fluksio-worker version. An agent refused for an older
protocol stays listed as Needs upgrade until it attaches again. Docs gain an
Upgrading workers section.
A portal identity whose email a local user already has is still refused
on arrival. POST /cloud/members/{portal_sub}/link lets a superuser map it
onto that user, never a superuser's, after the portal confirms the
membership. GET /cloud/members marks such members linkable, and Admin →
Users offers "Link portal account" for them, saying that a linked user is
deleted with a removal at the portal or a Disconnect.
A local Disconnect deletes every portal-mapped user except the account the
instance was enrolled as and superusers, so no inert rows stay behind. The
confirm dialog says so, and Admin → Users refreshes.
The connector now serves /mcp, its OAuth documents and /hooks/ besides
/api/v1/, refuses any dot segment (httpx resolves them, which carried
/api/v1/../../mcp onto the MCP mount), addresses calls to the hub's host,
and bridges served sockets by calling the app with a websocket scope.
A hook without a secret answers the tunnel with the 404 (or 1008) of a
wrong secret. Requests through the hub get the hub's issuer, resource and
consent page in the OAuth metadata and the 401, and the MCP host check
admits the hub while enrolled.
DELETE /runs?flow= removes every Run row of the flow but left its flow_run
rows, so a deleted flow kept appearing in the history. history=true now
drops those too, and the flow delete dialogs (editor and bulk) send it when
"Also delete its runs" is ticked.
GET /cloud/members asks the portal who it admits to this instance and
marks those with a local user. DELETE /cloud/members/{portal_sub} takes a
membership back. Admin → Users lists the members who have not arrived
yet, with Revoke, which also surfaces a membership left standing when a
local user was deleted while the portal could not be told.
The run detail works out curve_lost per node when read, from whether its
cached_from run still exists. The run page names the deleted run in place
of the generic NO_CURVE note.
Run.declared (migration 2e7ca7d10044) snapshots the declarations on submit
and import. The run detail's Inputs panel reads them, and a run from before
falls back to the flow's current declarations.
POST /observability/flush handles what the collector has queued and writes
it, so the soak harness no longer sleeps FLUSH_INTERVAL_S before clearing
its own rows.
A shared source goes live in every flow using it the moment it is saved, so
the write is recorded in the audit trail like a publish. Private source saves
stay drafts and are not audited.
DELETE /flows/library/{name} still answers 409 while nodes use the source.
With detach=true each of them keeps a copy of the code, in the published
flow and the draft, the source is deleted and the running users rebuild.
A flush ran its cascade under no id, so its executions and failures belonged
to no run. It now records a run with source "flush", and the holding run's id
travels on the queue item into a new `flow_run.parent` column, also on the
`/observability/runs` rows.
`ConnectorNode.store` keeps short strings per connector package in the
engine's database (`connector_state`, migration f8c3e5a91d27), so the nodes of
one package share them and `fluksio serve` needs nothing new: get, set and
delete, at most 64 kB a value and 256 keys a package. A superuser lists the
keys (never the values) and clears them through `/connectors/{node_type}/state`,
or under Stored state in a connector node's panel. Documented in the connector
contract.
Writing node source, installing modules and any flow save that adds,
retypes or repoints a code node (Function, Command), edits a Command
node's settings or changes a node's resources.env now answer 403 for
everyone but a superuser. MCP tools and the assistant reach the same
routes, so they inherit the gate. Node types report runs_code.
The editor shows code read-only with a note, disables a Command node's
settings, leaves code nodes and reusable nodes out of the palette and
paste, and the Modules page offers no install.
/users/signup answers 403 unless SIGNUP_ENABLED is set. A public
GET /utils/config/ tells the login page, which hides the sign-up link,
and the signup page explains that an administrator creates accounts.
/search lists each input and batch output under its qualified message,
and picking one opens the flow on the label's id, which the editor now
treats like a click on the label: it opens the flow's settings.
`Run.passed` (migration d5a3c8e1f246) keeps the names the caller chose, so
the run detail and the comparison table can mark a value as the flow's own
again; rows from before it fall back to the names their params lack. Retries
hand on their parent's list, imports record their entry's.
Also: a cancel of a queued run no longer leaves its id in `_cancelled`, a
linked comparison no longer crashes before the list loads, and the pre-commit
failures are fixed (stale client, `text-[10px]`, worker formatting).
