Use the runtime-selected default token path in the token-resolution fixture so the same contract is exercised on Windows and Unix runners.
Contract-Neutral: Platform-aware agent token test fixture changes no runtime contract
Use the installer-owned ProgramData directory consistently for token lookup, enrollment state, agent identity, receipts, and service runtime data. Pass that directory explicitly to the Windows service and retain the existing Linux default elsewhere.
Contract-Neutral: Windows agent state-path alignment preserves the existing installer and agent public contract
Fleets on networks numbered from nominally public IP space (issue
#1522: an AD estate on 192.20.0.0/16) cannot pass the agent's
local-network plaintext heuristic, and the only workaround was pointing
a .internal DNS alias at the server, which bypasses the same control
less visibly than a flag would. --allow-plaintext-http
(PULSE_AGENT_ALLOW_PLAINTEXT_HTTP) records process-wide consent once at
agent startup before any module validates a URL, covers every agent
transport including the websocket command channel, warns at startup
that the API token travels in cleartext, defaults closed, and is never
emitted by generated install commands or settable by the server.
v6.1.0-rc.1 retired the legacy update endpoints before a replacement
existed, so the UI's Update button failed with an internal-jargon 410
(issue #1564). This lands the replacement end to end: update_container
is a typed agentexec operation with its own strict codec, durable
receipts, and a request digest bound to the image digest the plan
observed; the unified agent bridges execution to the Docker module's
existing pull/backup/recreate/verify/rollback implementation (which now
reports rollback attempt and outcome); and the container action
executor plans, dispatches, and reconciles the operation with declared
backup/rollback compensation truth. Containers advertise an
admin-approval update capability while an image update with a stated
current digest is detected. The legacy endpoints stay retired but
return actionable copy.
Proven live against a Colima daemon: single-container update, the
issue-1564 shared-network-namespace update, and the full UI journey
(Update button, governed review, approve, run) all completed with the
namespace preserved and the backup retained.
The AI action broker treated an unreadable operator lock as unlocked:
isResourceRemediationLocked returned (false, nil) with no audit store
wired, and the caller logged store errors then dispatched anyway. An
operator's NeverAutoRemediate=true could be silently ignored whenever
the policy store was missing or erroring, which is unacceptable while
Patrol and Assistant run at assisted or full autonomy.
Posture change at the dispatch decision point:
- isResourceRemediationLocked now reports unknown state (nil store or
lookup failure) as an ErrRemediationLockStateUnknown-wrapped error
instead of silently defaulting to unlocked.
- New checkRemediationLockForDispatch gate: dispatches without an
approved human decision fail CLOSED on unknown lock state and
surface "remediation lock state unknown; operator approval
required". Human-approved dispatches keep the historical fail-open
behavior with a warning log. A confirmed lock still refuses even
approved dispatches, as before.
- executeNativeActionWithAudit (TrueNAS app start/stop/restart) now
enforces the lock too; it previously skipped the check entirely.
- Refusals persist Failed audit records with stable
remediation_lock_state_unknown: / resource_remediation_locked:
ErrorMessage prefixes.
- ai-runtime subsystem contract updated to pin the new posture.
Tests cover store-error and nil-store at both autonomy postures on
both dispatch paths; routing/control tests now wire an in-memory
audit store since autonomous dispatch without one is refused.
initDockerWithRetry and initKubernetesWithRetry were the same exponential
backoff loop (5s doubling to a 5m cap, cancel-aware wait, structured
retry logging) duplicated per module; dupl flagged the pair. Extract
initModuleWithRetry[T] and keep the two as thin wrappers so the
test-overridable newDockerAgent/newKubeAgent vars and call sites stay
unchanged. Per-module log strings are preserved verbatim.
Existing cmd/pulse-agent retry tests (success, cancel-before-connect,
cancel-during-wait, both modules) pass unchanged.
golangci-lint run ./... failed on ~190 pre-existing errcheck violations and
5 unformatted files, burying any new regression in noise. Fix all of them:
- Test files that hand-rolled mock-mode set/restore (vmware, truenas, and
friends) now use the canonical setMockModeForTest/testutil.SetMockMode
helper instead of drift copies that ignored SetEnabled errors.
- internal/mock and internal/monitoring tests get package-local
mustSetEnabled/mustSetMockEnabled/mustSetMonitorMockMode helpers that
fail the test on toggle errors.
- pkg/auth/sqlite_manager.go, pkg/metrics/store.go, pkg/server/server.go:
rollbacks in defers use the explicit-discard idiom, migration renames and
rollup commits log failures, the hosted reaper goroutine logs an error
exit, shutdown mock-disable logs failures.
- Remaining test sites check errors with t.Fatalf/t.Errorf or explicitly
discard best-effort calls (restore-chmods, handler-closure unmarshals)
per existing repo style.
- gofmt: internal/api/maintenance_verification.go, internal/ai/demo.go and
three findings test files.
Only dupl findings remain (44 pre-existing production-code duplication
pairs) — those need real refactors, not mechanical fixes.
Full test suites pass for every touched package.
Dead-code sweep. Functions flagged unreachable by golang.org/x/tools/cmd/deadcode
and confirmed unused across pulse, pulse-enterprise, pulse-pro and pulse-mobile by
adversarial cross-repo verification. Cross-module reachability was checked
explicitly (only pkg/ exported symbols are importable by other modules; internal/
packages and _test.go files are not). go build, go vet and test-compile all pass.
The Docker agent was not passing the disk exclusion list to
hostmetricsCollect(), so excluded mounts appeared in the Docker tab
disk totals. Also add server-side fsfilters filtering to Docker
report processing for parity with the host agent path.
The agent was crashing with 'fatal error: concurrent map writes' when
handleCheckUpdatesCommand spawned a goroutine that called collectOnce
concurrently with the main collection loop. Both code paths access
a.prevContainerCPU without synchronization.
Added a.cpuMu mutex to protect all accesses to prevContainerCPU in:
- pruneStaleCPUSamples()
- collectContainer() delete operation
- calculateContainerCPUPercent()

Add ability for users to describe what kind of agent profile they need
in natural language, and have AI generate a suggestion with name,
description, config values, and rationale.
- Add ProfileSuggestionHandler with schema-aware prompting
- Add SuggestProfileModal component with example prompts
- Update AgentProfilesPanel with suggest button and description field
- Streamline ValidConfigKeys to only agent-supported settings
- Update profile validation tests for simplified schema
Implements server-side persistence for AI chat sessions, allowing users
to continue conversations across devices and browser sessions. Related
to #1059.
Backend:
- Add chat session CRUD API endpoints (GET/PUT/DELETE)
- Add persistence layer with per-user session storage
- Support session cleanup for old sessions (90 days)
- Multi-user support via auth context
Frontend:
- Rewrite aiChat store with server sync (debounced)
- Add session management UI (new conversation, switch, delete)
- Local storage as fallback/cache
- Initialize sync on app startup when AI is enabled
Add contextual help icons throughout the UI to improve feature
discoverability. Users can click (?) icons to see explanations
with examples for settings they might not understand.
- HelpIcon component with click-to-open popover
- Centralized help content registry in /content/help/
- FeatureTip component for dismissible contextual tips
- Help added to: alert delay, AI endpoints, update channel
Reverse proxies (Traefik, Caddy, nginx) often normalize or reject URLs
containing %2F (encoded slash). Alert IDs contain forward slashes
(e.g., "docker-container-state-docker:abc/def"), causing acknowledge
requests to fail with 400 errors when going through a reverse proxy.
Added new body-based endpoints that accept alert ID in JSON body:
- POST /api/alerts/acknowledge {"id": "..."}
- POST /api/alerts/unacknowledge {"id": "..."}
- POST /api/alerts/clear {"id": "..."}
Updated frontend to use the new endpoints. Legacy path-based endpoints
are preserved for backwards compatibility.

The DisableDockerUpdateActions setting was being saved to disk but not
updated in h.config, causing the UI toggle to appear to revert on page
refresh since the API returned the stale runtime value.

On systems where Docker compatibility layer obscures Podman (like CoreOS),
the auto-detection can fail. Users can now force the runtime:
--docker-runtime podman
PULSE_DOCKER_RUNTIME=podman
Valid values: auto (default), docker, podman
Related to Discussion #958
Add PULSE_DISABLE_DOCKER_UPDATE_CHECKS environment variable and
--disable-docker-update-checks flag to disable Docker image update
detection. This is useful for:
- Avoiding Docker Hub rate limits
- Users who don't want update notifications in their dashboard
Related to Discussion #982
- Separated metrics collection into internal/dockeragent/collect.go
- Added agent self-update pre-flight check (--self-test)
- Implemented signed binary verification with key rotation for updates
- Added batch update support to frontend with parallel processing
- Cleaned up agent.go and added startup cleanup for backup containers
- Updated documentation for Docker features and agent security
Allows specifying which IP address the agent should report, useful for:
- Multi-homed systems with separate management networks
- Systems with private monitoring interfaces
- VPN/overlay network scenarios
Usage:
pulse-agent --report-ip 192.168.1.100
PULSE_REPORT_IP=192.168.1.100 pulse-agent
- Add container update command handling to unified agent
- Agent can now receive update_container commands from Pulse server
- Pulls latest image, stops container, creates backup, starts new container
- Automatic rollback on failure
- Backup container cleaned up after 5 minutes
- Added comprehensive test coverage for container update logic
