Found in an end-to-end test on a Windows 11 VM against a self-signed server.
- Rollback: a 1.20 agent re-enrolls within a second of an un-enroll, so an
older agent pushed afterwards arrived on an enrolled PC and was refused.
Revoke now takes {"blockreenroll": true, "reason": ...}; a blocked PC is
never issued a credential and keeps working on the shared key until
POST .../assets/<assetid>/allow-reenroll. The Enrollment page offers the
block when un-enrolling and shows blocked PCs with an allow button.
- First upgrade of old agents: agents before 1.20 check the server
certificate when downloading the upgrade, so a store wave failed on PCs that
do not trust a self-signed server while the Migration tab said ready. A
failed download now marks the PC blocked with "server certificate not
trusted by this PC". New Install-ShopDBServerCertificate.ps1 (GE-Enforce,
SYSTEM) adds a non-CA server certificate to the trusted roots after checking
its thumbprint; the server certificate page offers a .cer download and the
SHA-1 thumbprint.
- The generated installer writes ServerPins (with an optional next pin for a
planned rotation), can leave the shared key out so the PC waits for
approval, never touches an existing credential, and skips the trusted-root
import for a CA certificate.
- The agent re-reads server pins about every 60 seconds and recycles pooled
connections within 2 minutes, so a pin change needs no restart.
- An alert can only be acknowledged by a PC it targets.
- A wave no longer counts a PC as failed after a later wave upgraded it.
- The scripts report a pin mismatch only when the pin really is missing, and
otherwise log the real error.
- Runbook: trust step before the first wave, rollback order, pin re-read,
verifying the pin against the live URL; agent contract updated.
- Settings > Endpoints > Enrollment. Migration tab: readiness counts and
progress, each PC's state with the reasons it is blocked, "Upgrade
selected" and "Upgrade next 25", and live wave progress. Credentials tab:
enrolled PCs with revoke, pending requests with approve and reject, and the
shared key and auto-enroll switches. Turning the shared key off asks for
confirmation and shows how many PCs are not enrolled.
- The server certificate page shows the SPKI pin to put in the GE-Enforce
pin entry.
- The agent upgrade script and the asset and printer reporters send the PC's
credential when it has one (over https, only to the issuing server), fall
back to the shared key, check server pins, and log refusals clearly.
- New Set-ShopDBServerPins.ps1 (GE-Enforce entry) and Get-ShopDBServerPin.ps1.
- AGENT-CONTRACT.md documents per-PC credentials; the rollout runbook covers
phases, gates, rollback, pin and wave entries, and every place the shared
key lives and how to clear it at cutover.
- Removed the 09-14 certificate design notes and dated session reports, and
two VM notes that carried a live collector key and advised plain http.
- Corrected the GE-Enforce collector note, which claimed a plain registry
token is protected by ACL.
Per-PC credentials (replaces the 09-14 client-certificate attempt):
- POST /api/endpoints/enroll issues a credential to a PC that matches exactly
one computer by hostname and BIOS serial and has none yet. Anything else
(unknown or duplicate hostname, serial mismatch, already enrolled) waits as
a request an admin approves or rejects. The agent's persisted nonce binds an
approved request to the PC that asked.
- One auth helper serves every agent route. With X-Endpoint-Credential the
asset comes from the credential and a request naming another PC gets 403
ASSET_MISMATCH. The shared key still works for PCs that have not enrolled,
is refused (401 SHARED_KEY_REFUSED) for any PC that has, and can be switched
off. A revoked credential gets 401 CREDENTIAL_INVALID so the agent
re-enrolls.
- The core collector accepts the credential for the computers, printers and
endpoints collectors through two new plugin hooks exposed on shopdb.api
(contract 0.33.0), and refuses the shared key for enrolled PCs.
- Admin API: enrollment list, approve, reject, revoke (un-enroll), settings.
Migration API: per-PC readiness with blockers, and upgrade waves that
package the agent once and queue the existing agent upgrade per PC.
- Migration 0023 creates endpointcredentials, endpointenrollrequests and
endpointmigrationwaves, drops the certificate columns from assets where
test databases have them, and renames app_fingerprint to appfingerprint.
0021 and 0022 keep their ids but no longer alter the core assets table.
- Removed: client_cert.py, certificate renewal, the unauthenticated
/test/client-cert route, nginx client certificate forwarding and the agent
certificate script. The client-cert header could be forged on IIS, the key
was readable by users, and the shared key remained a fallback.
- GET /settings/server-cert returns the SPKI SHA-256 pin for GE-Enforce.
Review fixes:
- report_command_result used g without importing it; every result was a 500.
- collect_log refuses setup answer files, appsettings, agent directories and
key files at enqueue.
- Fleet alerts: alerttimeout and alertfleet agree with the migration, the
scope is validated and a malformed scope no longer reaches the whole fleet,
and the ack race no longer raises NameError.
- A refused break-glass override leaves no hold and no audit row.
- Agent upgrade checks locks and permissions before repackaging, and writes
the package atomically.
- Server certificate upload validates the pair before replacing files;
generation no longer builds an openssl config from user input; audit rows
are actually written.
- Health evaluation runs in a savepoint so a caught error cannot lose the
check-in.
- Required-app policies are found by appid, survive renames, and deleting an
app deactivates policies that still name it. The UI and API now say such a
policy only takes effect inside a business policy.
- Backfill handles duplicate fingerprints and rolls back a failed batch.
- Plugin settings routes skip a plugin whose hook raises.
- The setup token is no longer printed to the log.
- The naming gate checks top-level files again and handles odd file names.
- Removed root scratch scripts, one of which carried a token.
- Rewrote the fleet alert scheduling and app delta tests on real fixtures.
The printer assignment routes checked usesprinter and defaultprinter
together and reported one generic string: "Relationship types are not
seeded". A partially seeded table is the common case, so that message
sends someone looking for an empty table they will not find.
Found on this stack: relationshiptypes held 9 rows including
defaultprinter and controls, but usesprinter had never been inserted -
the id sequence shows it was never created rather than created and
deleted, since defaultprinter took the id usesprinter would have used.
The missing type also silently cost defaultprinter its propagation rail,
because _seed_propagation returns without comment when either end is
absent, so one gap broke assignment in two places.
Now reports which types are actually missing, e.g. "Relationship type(s)
not seeded: usesprinter - run: flask seed reference-data". Same check,
same 500, same remedy; it just says what is wrong.
Present on main, wj and dev-be as well.
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 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.
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.
The backend clamps perpage to MAX_PAGE_SIZE (100), so location selectors that requested a large page received only the first page and still got a 200. Late-alphabet locations (past ~C5W) simply went missing from every module's dropdown, and no error surfaced.
Add locationsApi.listAll, which pages through the full set via fetchAllPages, matching the established machines/printers pattern, and switch every location selector consumer to it.
The Add Computer, Add Machine, and Add Printer forms offered the entire model catalog and vendor list regardless of what was being added, so a PC could be pointed at a printer model and every vendor showed up whether or not it made that kind of thing. Scope each form to its own asset category so the selectors only present sensible choices.
Add a ?category= filter to GET /api/models that joins modeltypes and matches on category (Equipment, PC, Network, Printer), and include the model's category in the list response so the forms can distinguish types client-side. Untyped models are excluded, since a null category cannot satisfy the filter.
Each subtype form now loads only its category: PCForm requests category PC (servers, which are Network, stay out); MachineForm requests category Equipment, with the main Model dropdown hiding Controller-type models and the Controller dropdown showing only those; PrinterForm requests category Printer, which also fixes its Model list that previously showed the whole catalog.
Vendor dropdowns are derived from the loaded models: a form only offers vendors that actually have a model in its category. Each dropdown keeps the record's own saved vendor even if it falls outside that set, so editing an existing asset never drops its vendor.
Assign printers to a MACHINE and let whichever PC controls it install them, with
the observed half kept strictly apart from the assigned half: a collector report
can never write an assignment row. Adoption is explicit. Adds a singular
relationship type so defaultprinter can mean exactly one, client scripts that
converge a bay's queues and correct a drifted one in place, and a wave gate so a
fleet-wide driver rollout cannot stampede its own share.
On the container side: the compose stack never persisted the instance directory,
so a rebuild discarded plugins.json and every upload. It is a volume now, the
image ships instance/ owned by the app user so the mountpoint is writable, and
the database moves to MySQL 8.4 LTS, which the Windows runbook has recommended
since 8.0 went end of life. The image also could not build at all: the frontend
stage never copied the plugin staging script it runs.
Adds a topology migration guide covering IIS to Docker and back.
