The self-update feature failed on remote nodes because SelfUpdateService
ran `docker compose -f <host_path>` inside the container, where the host
compose file path does not exist. The fix splits the update into two
steps: (1) pull the latest image directly via `docker pull`, and (2)
spawn a short-lived helper container that mounts the compose directory
from the host and runs `docker compose up --force-recreate`.
Additional changes:
- Use execFileSync/execFile with argument arrays instead of shell strings
to eliminate shell injection surface from Docker label values
- Add Signal 4 completion detection: mark update as completed when the
remote version matches the gateway version (with 15s elapsed guard)
- Extend early failure heuristic from 90s to 3 minutes for slow pulls
- Distinguish "node unreachable" from "node lacks self-update capability"
in error messages; use silent skip in update-all to avoid res crashes
- Add requireAdmin guard to POST /api/system/update
- Handle comma-separated compose config file paths (multiple -f flags)
- Update fleet docs with self-update mechanism, troubleshooting entries
Surface six dedicated email channels (support, contact, licensing,
security, privacy, conduct) across contextually appropriate locations:
- security.txt: create .well-known/security.txt for app (RFC 9116)
- SECURITY.md: add security@sencho.io as alternative to GitHub reporting
- PaidGate/AdmiralGate: add licensing@sencho.io to upgrade prompts
- docs: new Contact & Support reference page listing all channels
- CHANGELOG: document additions under [Unreleased]
Website changes (separate repo): privacy@sencho.io in Privacy/Terms
pages, licensing@sencho.io in Refund page and pricing footer,
contact@sencho.io in website footer.
Lifetime licenses have no recurring subscription, so the Lemon Squeezy
customer portal cannot generate a URL. The Manage Subscription button in
Settings already had the isLifetime guard, but the Billing button in the
profile dropdown did not, causing a confusing "No billing portal
available" error.
- Add !license.isLifetime guard to UserProfileDropdown (matches
LicenseSection pattern)
- Move lifetime detection into getBillingPortalUrl() so the service owns
all billing eligibility logic
- Change return type to { url } | { error } discriminated union for
clear error propagation
Show a loading notification with spinner and indeterminate progress bar
while Resource Hub operations are in progress, replacing the dead moment
between confirmation and result.
* fix(sidebar): add service name and config_files fallbacks for container-to-stack matching
Containers that predate Sencho's reorganization of compose files into
subdirectories carry stale Docker labels where the project name is set
to the COMPOSE_DIR basename (e.g. "compose") rather than the stack
directory name. The existing project name map and working_dir fallbacks
from PR #416 did not cover this case.
Added two new fallback strategies to getBulkStackStatuses:
- Match by com.docker.compose.service label against known stack names
- Extract stack name from com.docker.compose.project.config_files path
Also reused the existing isPathWithinBase utility for path containment
checks and hoisted path.resolve(COMPOSE_DIR) out of the per-container
loop.
* fix(resources): unify container/resource classification with multi-fallback resolution
Extract shared helpers (resolveContainerStack, resolveProjectLabel,
buildAbsDirMap) and apply them consistently across getClassifiedResources,
pruneManagedOnly, getDiskUsageClassified, and getBulkStackStatuses.
Fixes incorrect "External" tagging in Resources Hub for images, volumes,
and networks belonging to stacks that predate Sencho's compose file
reorganization. Also fixes the "active" plural on the dashboard
Containers card.
* fix(auto-update): proxy update execution to remote nodes via Distributed API
Remote auto-update policies previously failed because the scheduler tried
to access the Docker daemon directly on remote nodes. Now the scheduler
detects remote nodes and proxies the update execution via HTTP to the
remote Sencho instance's new /api/auto-update/execute endpoint, which
runs image checks and compose updates locally on the remote machine.
* test(auto-update): add getNode mock to NodeRegistry in scheduler tests
The executeUpdate method now calls NodeRegistry.getNode() to detect
remote nodes. The test mock for NodeRegistry was missing this method,
causing the two executeUpdate tests to fail.
* fix(sidebar): resolve stacks showing unknown status when compose name field is set
The bulk status endpoint matched containers to stacks using the
com.docker.compose.project Docker label, assuming it equals the stack
directory name. When a compose file declares a top-level name: field,
Docker Compose uses that as the project name instead, causing the
label lookup to miss those containers entirely.
The fix parses each stack's compose file to build a project-name-to-
directory mapping (cached with 60s TTL to avoid re-parsing on every
poll), with a fallback to the working_dir label for edge cases.
Also extracts compose file name variants into a shared constant and
fixes an ordering inconsistency in smartFallback.
* docs: add troubleshooting entry for stack status mismatch with name field
* fix(fleet): resolve stuck update states and improve update UX
The fleet node update flow had several bugs: the in-memory update tracker
never cleared terminal states (timeout, failed, completed), leaving nodes
permanently stuck with no way to retry or dismiss. The Recheck button
only re-fetched stale state without clearing it, and the POST trigger
rejected retries with 409 even after timeout.
Backend fixes:
- Add DELETE endpoints (single node + batch) to clear tracker entries
- Fix 409 race: detect expired timeouts and clear terminal states before
re-triggering
- Populate error messages in the tracker for timeouts and failures
- Include error field in the update-status API response
- Auto-expire completed entries after 60 seconds
Frontend fixes:
- Add retry (RotateCcw) and dismiss (X) buttons on failed/timed-out badges
- Show error details via animated cursor hover (CursorFollow pattern)
- Recheck button now batch-clears all terminal states before fetching
- Recheck shows loading spinner and disables while checking
- Extract NodeCardProps interface for readability
* fix(fleet): detect update completion via process start time
Remote nodes that cannot report their version (e.g. older builds)
caused updates to always time out because completion detection
relied solely on version comparison. The gateway now tracks the
remote node's process start time from /api/meta and detects
container restarts by comparing it across polls.
Also extracts a createTracker() factory to eliminate repeated
object construction across 5 call sites.
* docs: add troubleshooting for first-update timeout on old nodes
Adds a new troubleshooting entry explaining why the first remote
update on nodes running pre-v0.40.0 always times out (neither
version nor process start time can be detected). Documents the
fix: dismiss, recheck, and confirm the node updated.
Also adds a screenshot of the timed-out state with retry/dismiss
buttons to the remote updates feature page.
* fix(fleet): detect update completion via offline detection and error reporting
The update completion detection relied on version change and process
start time, both of which fail on nodes running older Sencho versions
that report "unknown" and lack the startedAt field. This caused every
update to time out after 5 minutes.
Add three-signal detection: version change, process restart (startedAt),
and offline/online detection (node went unreachable during update and
came back). Also add a 90-second early failure heuristic for when the
remote image pull fails silently, and surface pull errors from
SelfUpdateService via /api/meta so the gateway can report them
immediately.
* fix(deps): bump vite to 8.0.5 to resolve high severity vulnerabilities
Fixes GHSA-4w7w-66w2-5vf9, GHSA-v2wj-q39q-566r, GHSA-p9ff-h696-f583.
* fix(deps): bump vite in backend lockfile to resolve audit failures
Vitest pulls in vite as a transitive dependency. Bumps to 8.0.5.
* fix(fleet): resolve version detection using package.json over stale generated constant
resolveVersion() previously returned the build-time SENCHO_VERSION
constant without checking the root package.json. When a branch fell
behind a release-please version bump, the generated constant was stale,
causing remote nodes to show "unknown" version and false "Update
available" badges. The function now walks up to the root package.json
first (authoritative source) and falls back to the generated constant
only if the walk fails.

* fix(deps): bump vite in backend lockfile to resolve audit failures
Vitest pulls in vite as a transitive dependency. Bumps to 8.0.5.
* fix(fleet): resolve version detection pipeline for Docker builds
The Dockerfile backend-builder stage was missing a COPY of the root
package.json, causing generate-version.js to fall back to "0.0.0-dev"
at build time. At runtime, the filesystem walk also failed (root
package.json not in the final image), producing the string "unknown"
which the frontend rendered as "vunknown".
Changes:
- Dockerfile: copy root package.json into backend-builder stage
- CapabilityRegistry: return null (not "unknown") for unresolvable
versions; add isValidVersion() type guard; normalize remote meta
responses to strip "unknown"/"0.0.0-dev" sentinel values
- Fleet endpoints: hoist gateway version validation outside per-node
loops; treat unresolvable remote versions as "potentially outdated"
instead of silently marking them up to date
- FleetView: guard all version display points (card badge, update
button, gateway label, modal columns) via shared formatVersion()
- EditorLayout, CapabilityGate: use shared isValidVersion utility
- New frontend/src/lib/version.ts shared utility
- Docs: add troubleshooting section for version display edge cases
- Screenshots: updated Fleet Overview and Node Updates modal
* docs: update fleet node updates screenshot with live remote node
* fix(licensing): resolve Admiral variant detection and lifetime license handling
The Lemon Squeezy variant name for Admiral licenses contains "Admiral"
(not "Team"), but getVariant() only checked for "team" and "personal".
This caused Admiral licenses to be misidentified as Skipper, locking all
Admiral-exclusive features.
- Map "admiral" variant names to internal "team" value, "skipper" to "personal"
- Add isLifetime field to LicenseInfo API response
- Hide "Manage Subscription" button for lifetime licenses (no billing portal)
- Show "Duration: Lifetime" instead of empty renewal date
- Hide upgrade cards for active Admiral users
- Add 23 unit tests covering variant resolution, tier computation, and lifetime detection
- Add troubleshooting entries for wrong tier label, locked features, and billing portal errors
* fix(licensing): address code review findings
- Fix nested ternary in LicenseSection JSX; restore conditional rendering
to avoid showing an empty "N/A" row for non-subscription states
- Clean up test file: use shared svc variable, remove redundant comments,
add trialDaysRemaining assertions, rename describe block
Eliminate all references to "Pro" across backend, frontend, and docs.
Internal tier value renamed from 'pro' to 'paid'; user-facing text now
uses the thematic tier names (Community, Skipper, Admiral).
- Rename LicenseTier 'pro' to 'paid' in backend and frontend types
- Rename requirePro guard to requirePaid, error code PRO_REQUIRED to PAID_REQUIRED
- Rename ProGate.tsx to PaidGate.tsx with updated copy
- Fix: trial users can now see upgrade/purchase cards in Settings
- Update all docs and openapi.yaml to use correct tier names
* feat(stacks): state-aware sidebar context menu and Open App action
- Context menu now adapts to stack state: running stacks show
Stop/Restart/Update, stopped stacks show Deploy only
- Added "Open App" shortcut to open a stack's web UI directly
from the sidebar (visible when running with a published port)
- Backend bulk status endpoint enriched with mainPort detection
- Reduced manual image update check cooldown from 10 to 2 minutes
- Rate limit error message now derives from the configured constant
* fix(stacks): use const for bulkPorts (prefer-const lint)
* feat(license): distributed license enforcement across multi-node setups
The primary instance's license tier is now asserted to remote nodes on
every proxied HTTP and WebSocket request via trusted headers. Remote
nodes honor the assertion only when the request carries a valid
node_proxy JWT, preventing unauthorized elevation from browsers or API
tokens. Falls back to local license tier for direct access.
* fix(test): remove unused vi import in distributed-license tests
Add the ability to check for outdated nodes and trigger over-the-air
updates from Fleet View. Nodes self-update by pulling the latest Docker
image and recreating their container via the "last breath" pattern.
Backend:
- SelfUpdateService: self-container identification via HOSTNAME + Docker
Compose labels, triggers pull + force-recreate
- CapabilityRegistry: runtime capability disabling via disableCapability()
- POST /api/system/update (202 + deferred self-update)
- GET /api/fleet/update-status (version comparison across fleet)
- POST /api/fleet/nodes/:nodeId/update (single node)
- POST /api/fleet/update-all (bulk remote update)
- In-memory update tracker with 5-min timeout
Frontend:
- Node Updates modal with summary stats, search filter, table layout,
per-node Update buttons, and bulk Update All
- Version badges and update-available indicators on node cards
- ReconnectingOverlay for local node updates (polls /api/health)
- 5s fast-poll when any node is actively updating
- UpdateStatusBadge shared component for consistent badge rendering
Requires Skipper (Pro) tier. Nodes must be deployed via Docker Compose
with Docker socket access.
* feat(nodes): add capability-based node compatibility negotiation
Each Sencho instance now exposes /api/meta with its version and supported
capabilities. When the user switches nodes, the frontend fetches this
metadata and disables features the remote node doesn't support via a
CapabilityGate overlay. Version is shown in the node switcher dropdown
and connection test results.
- Backend: CapabilityRegistry with static capability list and fetchRemoteMeta helper
- Backend: /api/meta (public) and /api/nodes/:id/meta (auth) endpoints
- Frontend: NodeContext enhanced with per-node meta caching (5min TTL)
- Frontend: CapabilityGate component with typed Capability union
- Frontend: 13 features wrapped with capability gates
- Docs: node-compatibility.mdx + OpenAPI spec updates
* fix(nodes): revert to require() for package.json version reading
The static import fails in the Docker multi-stage build because the
root package.json is not copied into the backend-builder stage. The
require() call resolves at runtime when the file is available.
Route stack alerts to specific Discord, Slack, or webhook channels instead
of the single global endpoint. Includes per-rule enable/disable, priority
ordering, and automatic fallback to global agents when no rule matches.
- Add notification_routes table, interface, and CRUD in DatabaseService
- Add routing logic in NotificationService.dispatchAlert with optional stackName
- Pass stack context from MonitorService (crash/health) and SchedulerService

* feat(nodes): add per-node scheduling and update visibility
Add Schedules and Updates columns to the Nodes table showing active
task counts, next run times, and auto-update status per node. A calendar
action button navigates to filtered schedule/auto-update views.
Backend changes:
- Add node_id to stack_update_status table (migration + unique index)
- Cascade cleanup on node deletion (scheduled_tasks + update status)
- Pre-check target node existence/status before executing scheduled tasks
- New GET /api/nodes/scheduling-summary endpoint
