Some monitored processes (for example c:\BladeRunner\BladeRunner.exe) need a known launch path so the agent can act on the policy, not just detect by image name. This threads launchpath through the agent config, contracts, collector client, and command executor, and bumps the agent to 1.6.1.
Bring in the natural-key import fix, Metrics->Monitors rename, PC detail tabbing and panel groups, guest search grants, and the 2026-08-30 security fixes. Reconcile endpoint packaging/installer, migrations, contract version, and tests; keep the delivery uninstaller and 6-step installer alongside main's permission-based RBAC and pin-drift protection.
install.ps1 carries the live collector key, so it must not linger on the endpoint. Before removing it, the installer now confirms the service reached Running (with retries) and that the tray process is up, failing loudly and keeping install.ps1 in place if the service never starts. Once healthy, it archives the uninstaller, appsettings, README, and cert into C:\ProgramData\ShopDB\EndpointAgent, deletes install.ps1, and prints the uninstaller path.
The tray draws its icon at runtime and has no embedded Win32 icon, so shortcuts showed the generic exe icon. Add a headless --export-icon mode that reuses the same GDI+ drawing to write an .ico, and have install.ps1 export it and set the shortcut IconLocation. Keeps one source of brand truth with no checked-in binary.
The site-agent bundle now includes uninstall-shopdbagent.ps1 so operators can cleanly remove an install without hunting for the repo script. The packaging route reads it from scripts/, which was not mounted into the api container, so add a read-only ./scripts:/app/scripts mount (recreate the container to apply).
install.ps1 now registers the tray to autostart for every user via the HKLM Run value ShopDbEndpointTray, adds an All-Users 'ShopDB Agent' Start Menu shortcut for manual relaunch, and launches the tray once post-install. The tray enforces a single instance via a Global named mutex so repeated launches no longer stack duplicate icons. The uninstaller removes the Start Menu shortcut alongside the existing Run key and credential cleanup.
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.
Bumps the agent to 1.4.1. run_script fetches a ShopDB-hosted script by digest and runs it in the script's configured context (LocalSystem or the interactive logged-on user), replacing the local scriptpaths allowlist; user-context runs wait for exit and report the real exit code instead of fire-and-forget. update_app resolves an app-level or version-level install source, fetches the pinned bytes, verifies sha256, and runs silently. Both stage into a fixed Defender-excludable folder (C:\ProgramData\ShopDB\EndpointAgent) instead of the LocalSystem temp path. Adds the DeliveryClaim contract for the claim payload.
A misconfigured BaseUrl (plaintext http:// against the TLS port) made the command long-poll fail at connect in milliseconds. The worker misread that fast failure as a normal idle hold-window close and re-polled with no delay, spinning into a request storm. Gate the idle-close path on the poll having stayed open at least MinIdlePollDuration, so a sub-second transport failure takes the transient backoff instead; add a MinPollInterval floor so no path can exceed a safe request rate. Also reject a non-loopback http:// BaseUrl at startup with a single clear error, turning a silent runtime flood into a fast fail. Loopback http stays valid for local dev.
Several days of endpoint-agent work left DB dumps, sample datasets, captured command output, generated maps, vuln scan output, merge-kit exports, and staged agent publish trees in the tree. None are product source. Ignore them so status shows only real work and they cannot be committed by accident. exports/ stays on disk for reference. agent/.gitignore also reserves dev-bin/ and _stage/ for delivery-build scratch.
Standalone one-shot enrollment tool that creates a ShopDB PC + Endpoint entry using only the endpoints collector key, reusing the existing collector adopt path. Collects identity, WMI hardware, and installed-software SBOM; requires admin. Server-side packaging route attaches to the existing endpoints blueprint; no core contract change.
The agent now reports installed applications from both Uninstall registry hives (64-bit and WOW6432Node) as {displayname, displayversion, publisher}, mirroring the Assess-Orchestrator applications collection. Registry-only, no Win32_Product/WMIC self-repair and no AppX. The server logs it as an unpersisted key until the SBOM store is built.
The endpoint agent now sends disk, bios, memory, processor, osinfo, and domain telemetry. The server does not persist these yet, so ingest logs any unpersisted payload keys with a compact preview. This makes incoming telemetry observable in the logs before any UI or schema work, so we can confirm the agent is sending it and enhance the UI later.
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.
