rcourtman b1044cd8a4 Let replayed request ids wait for the in-flight handler instead of dropping
Since 60d0651a88 every typed request registers a per-connection cancellable
slot that its handler goroutine releases in a deferred cleanup after sending
its result. The server replays a request id when it wants the durable receipt
again, and that replay can reach the reader before the previous handler's
deferred release runs. launchCancellableRequest treated that as a duplicate
and dropped it, so the server waited out the operation's full timeout for a
result the agent already held. The Linux x64 native-verification leg failed
this way on 12 of the last 25 main runs, always on a "replay 1" dispatch of
host update, storage cleanup, or Docker lifecycle.

Give each slot a done channel that closes on release. A replay whose id is
still registered on the same connection now waits for that release and then
runs, answering from the durable receipt. Invalid ids and over-capacity
requests are still dropped. A unit test pins the wait-then-run behaviour and
the agent-lifecycle contract records the replay rule.

Pulse documentation

Start here for installation, platform setup, security, operations, and Pulse Intelligence. Commands, configuration keys, image names, API fields, and product identifiers remain untranslated in localized guides.

Start here

  • Install Pulse — signed Proxmox/Linux installation, Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and first-run setup.
  • Production deployment and security — least-privilege Proxmox setup, root-agent boundaries, discovery, supply-chain verification, plan limits, scale evidence, and a rollout checklist.
  • Upgrade from Pulse v5 — migration prerequisites, rollback, agent continuity, and post-upgrade checks.
  • Configure Pulse — authentication, notifications, discovery, retention, and system settings.
  • Deployment models — data locations, lifecycle, and differences between supported deployment paths.
  • Troubleshooting and FAQ — common failures, diagnostics, and operator questions.

Localized getting started guides: Deutsch · Español

Platforms and agents

VMware vSphere support is early access. Current builds expose dedicated vSphere inventory and recovery context, but operators should validate the integration against their own vCenter before production use.

Monitoring and operations

Pulse Intelligence

Patrol watch-only analysis is available on Community with a local model or the operator's own provider. Investigation and governed fixes require the relevant Pulse Pro capabilities.

Security, privacy, and access

Plans and managed access

Pulse Cloud is not generally available. Ordinary self-hosted Pulse remains the primary installation path; MSP and Enterprise access are explicit commercial paths rather than defaults in self-hosted setup.

Development and reference

Detailed design notes and dated migration specifications may remain in this directory for maintainers, but they are not operator setup guides unless they are linked from the sections above.
