- 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/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
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.
The welcome frame's keys replace the set pinned at enrolment, but only
over wss:// or loopback, the rule enrolment applies to the portal
address. Portal tokens are verified against the key their kid names, so
the hub can publish a new key beside the old one. A welcome without keys,
from an older hub, leaves the pinned set alone.
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.
On a member_removed frame the connector deletes the local user mapped to
that portal account, never the owner and never a superuser, since the
portal only ever creates ordinary accounts here. An instance offline at
the time keeps the inert row, as before.
The connector treats close code 4410 from the hub as final: it stops
dialling, keeps cloud.json so a new claim code replaces it, and reports
revoked in /cloud/status, which Settings → Remote access shows as Removed
at the portal. Enrolling again, or a restart, brings the link back. An
older hub still answers 403 and the link keeps retrying as before.
A share link admits somebody at the portal, so this instance first hears of
them when they arrive rather than when a superuser types their code in.
An unmapped portal identity is now checked once against the portal's own
list of who may reach this instance and given an ordinary local account
only if the portal vouches for it.
Asking rather than believing the token is the point: a token stays signed
and valid until it expires, so trusting its claims would let one rebuild
the account somebody deleted here and deleting a user would stop being the
whole of the revocation.
The account-making itself moved out of the route, since both ways in build
the same thing.
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.
The site read as a design journal: rationale paragraphs, hedges
("deliberately", "on purpose", "genuinely"), meta-commentary about the docs
themselves, and one em-dash every ten lines carrying an aside.
Roughly twenty rationale blocks are gone or reduced to what a reader needs
in order to use the thing. Em-dashes go from 507 to 135, and what is left is
structural rather than prose: list and definition separators, table cells,
and four inside code blocks that quote what the CLI actually prints.
Also: api.example.com becomes api.fluksio.com (the emails stay, since
bootstrap.py really defaults to admin@example.com and RFC 2606 reserves it);
the mqtt table gains the two settings it had drifted behind on and inject's
wording matches the engine; llms.txt lists the two connector pages that were
in the nav but not in it; and the two device/device_policy notes now agree.
Builds clean under `zensical build --strict`.
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.
A zensical site under docs/, served by a new `docs` compose service behind
Traefik, built with --strict in CI. Same pattern the sibling n3xd workspace
uses.
Getting started splits the way the landing page does — one path is
`pip install fluksio` and a training script, the other is a Docker stack and
an afternoon in the browser — because the two audiences will not spend the same
amount of time. Everything after that is shared: the concepts, the web
interface (app and portal), the CLI and the API, and a reference for node types,
payload types and configuration.
The three flow guides move here from the docs submodule rather than being
copied, so there is one version of them.
Styling mirrors DESIGN-GUIDELINES.md: the app's token palette remapped onto
Material's variables in both schemes, Inter, the 16px panel radius, and the one
terracotta accent spent on the facility lane of the audience split.
