The license-server broker now serves stable and rc manifest slots
(pulse-pro side). The Pro self-updater passes channel=rc for rc-channel
installs so they track the RC slot; stable installs keep the unchanged
default URL, which older brokers also understand. The client-side guard
that refuses a prerelease pin on the stable channel stays as the backstop
for a drifted or single-manifest broker. Contract updated under
deployment-installability; fixture now pins the channel query behavior.
A Docker install of the Pro runtime had no sane update path: the binary
self-updater refuses to run in a container, the customer compose file pins
the previous image digest (so `docker compose pull` never updates), and the
in-app guidance showed community `docker pull rcourtman/pulse:<tag>` commands
that silently downgrade the container to the community build - the same
failure mode 93bccaff1 fixed for binary installs.
The update check on the Pro binary already fetches the license server
download broker manifest (GET /v1/downloads/pulse-pro), which carries the
digest-pinned image ref plus ready-to-run compose commands. Relay that block
on UpdateInfo.dockerUpdate for Docker deployments, behind the existing
stable/rc channel guard, failing closed unless both compose commands
reference the digest-pinned ref (never a mutable tag).
Settings -> Updates now renders those commands as copy blocks when an update
is available, and the idle Docker box, the update banner, and the docker
update plan suppress every community-image command whenever the compiled
runtime identity is pro.
Contracts: api-contracts (update transport dockerUpdate block),
deployment-installability (Pro Docker update path), frontend-primitives
(install guide Pro-runtime guidance), with transport and settings-shell
proofs extended accordingly.
TestUpdateDemoWorkflowUsesGovernedNetworkPath still asserted the retired
authkey: TS_AUTHKEY line; 0a9a29d63 moved update-demo-server.yml to the
OAuth client (TS_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID / TS_OAUTH_SECRET, tag:infra), so the
test now pins those lines instead.
