stroblmeandClaude Opus 5 058f16ec1d Close eight open SDK tasks: the pidfile, the log, cards, names and a live curve
Each was a loose end recorded under `### SDK` in the notepad.

`serve` takes its own pidfile down on SIGTERM. uvicorn restores the handler it
found and re-raises the signal it stopped on, so the default handler ended the
process without unwinding and the `finally` never ran — which is what a stop
sends, and what left `serve.pid` behind.

`serve.log` is cut back past 5 MB by the engine rather than by the screen that
started it, so an adopted engine is bounded too. Gated on its own stdout being
an appended regular file, which is what makes the cut safe: the kernel then
puts the next write at the new end.

Cards are counted from `/dev/nvidia[0-9]*`, so `FLOW_GPUS`/`--gpus` of 0 means
"work it out" the way `FLOW_CPUS` always has. The engine counts, not the
accountant — a remote worker builds one of those from its own inventory, and
detecting there would hand it the engine host's cards. The worker counts last:
what a batch job says it was granted still wins.

`GET /runs/metrics/names` is the distinct over a selection that `--list` and
the terminal's metric picker were approximating by reading the newest run that
had measured anything, which missed a name only an older run ever wrote.

`MetricSink` announces each batch it has written (`run_metric`, carrying the
names). Not a per-point event: one covers up to 500 points or two seconds of
them, and the rows stay the record. The terminal comparison fills in as the
first readings land instead of staying blank until reopened, and the browser
refetches the run and any comparison rather than the list behind them.

`retry --group` pages the list route by `before` instead of stopping at 500.

The terminal dashboard takes the terminal's colours (`ansi-dark`), and the web
UI can re-pair from Settings without disconnecting first.

"""The agent that runs Fluksio nodes on a machine the engine cannot reach.
Point it at the engine on the box with the GPU and it dials in::
pip install fluksio-worker
fluksio-worker --url wss://api.example.com/api/v1/workers/attach \\
--token "$FLUKSIO_WORKER_TOKEN" --labels gpu
Install it into the environment the training code already runs in and node
code runs on that: ``--python`` defaults to the interpreter this was started
with. Point it elsewhere only when the two are meant to differ.
It connects *out*, so the engine needs no route back and nothing has to expose
Redis. What it then does is what the engine's own worker pool does: hold a few
subprocesses running ``worker_main.py``, hand each call to one, and pass back
everything that comes out — including the metrics a training loop reports
while it is still running.
Deliberately two files with one dependency. Nothing of the engine is imported
here; a worker host installs Python, ``websockets``, and whatever the nodes
themselves need. Where pip is not an option, copying this file and
``worker_main.py`` into one directory and running ``python agent.py`` is the
same thing — the engine serves the runner at ``GET /api/v1/workers/runtime``.
