Curated events were re-read from the newest 25 entries per channel on every
collect, and the server appended whatever arrived. One real event was
therefore stored again on every cadence tick for as long as it stayed in
that window, so event counts measured how long a box had been up rather
than what had happened to it.
The agent now keeps a per-channel watermark of the last Windows event
record id it reported, persisted under ProgramData so a service restart
does not replay history, and sends eventrecordid with each event. The
server dedupes on (assetid, eventchannel, eventrecordid) behind a unique
index, so a replay from an older agent cannot double-store either.
Six inventory keys the agent had been sending all along - bios, disks,
domain, memory, osinfo, processor - were parsed, logged as unpersisted,
and dropped. They now have columns and are written on check-in, along
with user context, pending reboot, and the cpupercent/memorypercent/
idleseconds fields that were declared in the contract but always null.
Session-scoped data cannot be read from the agent's LocalSystem session 0
at all: mapped drives and user-owned listeners do not exist there. A probe
runs in the interactive user's session and hands results back through a
spool file. It is not yet producing output on a live endpoint; the column
and panel are in place and read empty until that is fixed.
Also bounds the user-context script wait. It was WaitForSingleObject with
INFINITE, so a hung script pinned the command worker permanently.
Uploading an agent build whose product version carried semver build metadata
(1.5.0+abcdef) was rejected, because the typed version string was validated as
a dotted-numeric value before the file was ever read. That string is only a
hint from the operator, and the build metadata it carries is not a legal
directory name for the version store.
The authority is the dotted-numeric FILE version stamped in the binary PE
resource, so validation now happens after the upload is parsed: when the typed
value is missing or not dotted-numeric, fall back to the detected version, and
reject only when neither yields a usable one.
Ben Baker's installed-software collection, software delivery (run_script and
update_app), agentless adoption tool and command-queue hardening, with his
authorship preserved.
Reviewed before promotion. Fixed: the endpoints plugin tests were never collected
by pytest, the SBOM snapshot table's key would exhaust on MySQL, ingest did not
truncate two columns strict MySQL would reject, and update_app's version branch
pinned a digest for a file that route never serves. Agent packaging moved off
require_role('admin') onto a new endpoints.agentpackage permission.
Contract 0.27.0. Full suite 2231, frontend 314.
The board was one card per source in a fixed grid: every source got the same
small box whatever it had to say (warranties showed 5 of 50), and a box per
source flattened priority, while the largest type on the page belonged to counts
that need nobody.
Now a severity rollup, one worst-first queue of everything needing a person, and
a row of context beneath. The queue is full width, capped per source so a noisy
check cannot bury a rare one, and names what did not fit with a link to it. Chips
filter the queue by check as well as by severity; both narrow what is already
loaded, so the counts and rows cannot disagree.
Dropped: an 'All assets' tile shown beside its own four addends, a printer strip
carrying the same count a third time, three cards whose job was to display 0, and
a Recent Devices table listing five machines all 'In Use'.
Contract 0.26.0 adds optional 'shortname' on dashboard cards - a title is written
as a heading and ran wider than the hostname it qualified as a row badge.
Also: the supplies card reported 'Low Supplies 0' when Zabbix was unreachable,
which reads as reassurance rather than the truth that nothing could see the
cartridges. It now distinguishes unreachable (says so) from unconfigured (stays
quiet - the site declined the feature) from a real zero.
Full suite 2182 passed, frontend 314 passed.
The machine page opened with a dual-bay banner directly above a hero band saying
'Controlled by'. Both answer 'what am I looking at', so the sibling is now a chip
in the band. The band takes a generic extraitems prop rather than learning what
dualpath is - the pairing is resolved by the machines plugin, not from the
relationships endpoint.
MeasuringToolDetail filtered for a machine counterpart, but the import creates a
controls edge PC -> tool, so a gage's counterpart is a computer. It rendered
nothing on every metrology station that has a PC.
Verified on screen. Full suite 2178 passed, frontend 280 passed.
The machine page now shows the PC that controls it. The endpoint was correct all
along and returned both directions; AssetTriageBand discarded every peer whose
type was not 'machine' and was mounted only on the PC page. The counterpart type,
label and relationship types are now props.
Fixed while adopting it more widely: every band chip linked to /assets/<id>, and
there is no such route. The resolver that AssetRelationships.vue kept privately
is now frontend/src/utils/assetRoute.js, used by both - and its type lookup is
case-insensitive, because seed data capitalises the type names while this site's
database does not.
The legacy import is now safe to resume. The 409-resolve asked for
per_page=10000 against a server that clamps to 100, so it silently searched the
first 100 rows and dropped links past that on every re-run. The crosswalk is now
bound to the database it describes, so one carried across a rebuild is refused
rather than attaching rows to the wrong assets. Source database names are
resolved from the environment, so the loader can be aimed without editing it.
Full suite 2178 passed, frontend 280 passed.
The branch stored scopejson, desiredstate and params as sa.JSON, the only JSON
columns in the product. MySQL 5.6 has no JSON type - it arrived in 5.7 - and the
migration failed there with a bare syntax error near the word JSON.
They are TEXT now, through a JSONText type decorator, so the seventeen call sites
still assign and read dicts. The convention elsewhere is already TEXT:
guides.blocksjson, geenforce.manifestjson.
Spec regenerated: 331 paths, 477 operations across 22 surfaces.
Thirteen commits from benjamin.baker plus the review fixes. Everything he built
is here: the endpoints plugin and its command queue, the .NET endpoint agent,
the computers policies subsystem, the site-asset CSV import with its adapters
and collector, Entra device identity, and the catalog hand-merge.
His branch predates four commits on main (section ticking, the generator share
links, Secure Send copy message, and the smoke-test workflow), so those come
through untouched - nothing of ours is removed by this merge.
wilm stays as its own branch; this does not close it.
Applied on top of af13337 so nothing already on wilm is rewritten.
AUTHORIZATION. The six new policy GETs were @jwt_required(optional=True) with
no permission at all, so an anonymous caller could list configuration and
business policies - gated only by a feature flag that 404s while off. They now
require computers.view. The six policy write routes stacked @jwt_required()
above @require_permission, the same pattern removed from nine endpoints routes
in this very push: the outer decorator answers an anonymous request 401 before
require_permission can consult the guest role, so a grant to guests silently
does nothing. Removed, and the now-unused import with them.
tests/test_core/test_public_read_surface.py failed at af13337 with seven ungated
GETs. It passes now. The seventh, endpoints.claim_next_command, is genuinely
agent-facing - authenticated in the handler by the endpoints collector key,
because a bay has no user session - so it joins PUBLIC_ENDPOINTS with its reason
written down, exactly as report_command_result already does in test_authz.py.
Note which half is public: claiming a queued command is the agent's business,
while ENQUEUEING one is the real authority and stays gated on endpoints.command.
INSTALLER. -BaseUrl and -CollectorKey are now mandatory with no defaults, and
https is enforced unless -AllowInsecureHttp is passed for a local test box. The
defaults were a real hostname (ADR-015) and a live collector key: a key in
source is a key in git history, and that key is also the command channel's kill
switch. Removing it here does not undo the disclosure - it must be rotated on
the server, and purged from af13337 - but it stops the next clone carrying it.
IMPORT. A committed import wrote thousands of rows and left no audit trail; it
now writes one AuditLog row inside the same transaction, so it cannot survive a
rollback or go missing from a commit. The computer-type dropdown asked for
per_page: 200, which the API ignores in favour of perpage and clamps to 100
anyway - it uses a new computersApi.types.listAll(), the pattern already applied
to the other selectors. And the comment claiming the template example rows are
"emitted as commented rows the engine skips" was the opposite of the truth: they
import as live data, the emitted instructions say so, and a test depends on it.
Not fixed here, deliberately: rotating the leaked key, purging it from history,
and the endpoint agent's own hardening (per-host credentials, a protected
process denylist so stop cannot kill security tooling, signing before the
PowerShell runner is enabled, registry ACLs, and the 25-second long poll that
will pin a worker thread per bay).
A command reaching 'succeeded' only proves the agent ran the action, not that it posted a new telemetry snapshot. Reloading panels on command success alone re-rendered stale service/process rows, so a stopped process could still show running right after Refresh Status.
Add a lightweight telemetrymeta probe exposing lastreportedat and gate both the header Refresh Status action and inline row Start/Stop on that stamp advancing past a pre-action baseline. Polling is bounded so an offline or idle agent never hangs the button, and messaging distinguishes a confirmed refresh from a queued one.
Bring the .NET endpoint agent source (service, tray, installer) into the repo so Cameron can merge and test, with an agent/.gitignore keeping bin/obj/publish out. Includes the DncMain launch-path fix, tray single-file host env scrub, and best-effort file logger.
Default fuzzy reconcile threshold to 0 and refuse merges when digit runs differ so numbered labels like Bay 311 never bind to Bay 310. Keep edit forms from clearing saved model fields when category filtering hides untyped rows. Includes in-progress computers policy and endpoints command feature work.
