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. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fluksio App
Fluksio is a node-based automation software that brings trust and reliability to your flow. It just works and looks good.
The core of Fluksio: a node-based, test-driven automation software built to scale. This
repo holds the FastAPI backend, the flow engine, and the dashboard SPA. It is served on
app.${DOMAIN} (SPA) and api.${DOMAIN} (API)
Layout
backend/ FastAPI + SQLModel + Alembic + SQLite
fluksio/flow/ the flow engine (nodes, pipeline, state backends, controller)
fluksio/cli.py `fluksio serve` / `enroll` / `worker`
worker/ the `fluksio-worker` distribution: the agent and the node runner
frontend/ React 19 + TanStack Router + Tailwind 4 + shadcn/ui
docs/ the public documentation site (zensical), served on docs.${DOMAIN}
docker/ compose.yml → compose.dev.yml → compose.local.yml (+ compose.traefik.yml)
scripts/ generate-client.sh, test.sh
Install without Docker
Get started quickly by running
pip install fluksio
fluksio serve
Then, head over to fluksio.com, sign up and add a new installation. Using the code provided, run
fluksio enroll <code>
and you're ready to rock.
Fluksio is distributed at it's heart. A machine that should only run nodes for an engine elsewhere installs less:
pip install fluksio-worker
fluksio-worker --url wss://api.example.com/api/v1/workers/attach --token "$TOKEN" --labels gpu
Getting started
Normally driven from the workspace root (make init once, then make dev). Standalone:
make install # uv sync + bun install
make dev-utils # proxy and mailcatcher only
make dev-backend # FastAPI on :8000, hot reload
make dev-frontend # Vite on :5173
make test # pytest + Playwright (the e2e half needs the stack up)
make lint # ruff + mypy + biome
make generate-client # regenerate the frontend SDK from the OpenAPI schema
make help lists every target.
Documentation
The public site lives in docs/ and is built with zensical:
make docs-serve # live preview on :8000
make docs # static build into ./site
It is served at docs.${DOMAIN} by the docs service in docker/compose.yml,
and .gitea/workflows/docs.yml builds it with --strict on every push.
