Anso a318e6b3c1 fix(mesh): close data-plane race that dropped early TcpData frames (#1086)
The tcp_open and tcp_open_reverse receivers registered their stream
entry only after awaiting resolveTarget / resolveContainerIp. The
peer, which is free to send TcpData immediately after the open frame,
hit the lookup-miss path in handleBinaryFrame and the bytes were
silently dropped. Probes passed because they only exercise the
handshake; real HTTP hung with 0 bytes received.

Reserve the stream entry synchronously, buffer early TcpData in a
per-stream pendingData queue capped at 1 MiB, and flush onto the
local socket inside the connect handler before sending tcp_open_ack.
The payload is copied because decodeBinaryFrame returns a subarray
view of the WS receive buffer; holding the view would pin the parent
buffer past its lifecycle.

Both sides of the data plane are patched:
- tcpStreamSwitchboard.onTcpOpen (forward, agent + proxy-mode peer)
- PilotTunnelBridge.handleTcpOpenReverse / acceptReverseLocal
  (reverse, primary acting as the local dial target)

Adds unit coverage for the race window and for the overflow path.
The cap constant lives in pilot/protocol.ts alongside the other
per-stream limits.

Anso a38a3e0226 feat(mesh): route mesh traffic over Distributed API remotes (#1048)
* refactor(mesh): extract shared TCP stream switchboard

Pull the `tcp_open` / `tcp_open_ack` / `tcp_open_reverse` / `tcp_close`
+ `TcpData` handling out of the pilot agent into a reusable module so a
second caller (the upcoming proxy-mode WS handler) can run the same
frame parser, stream allocator, idle timers, and Compose-label
resolver. One parser, two callers, zero drift on a
security-sensitive protocol surface.

The pilot agent keeps its public `openMeshTcpStream` API and delegates
to a per-connection switchboard constructed in `connect()` and torn
down in `cleanupAfterDisconnect`. Existing reverse-stream and resolver
tests are rewritten to exercise the shared module directly.

* feat(mesh): route mesh traffic over Distributed API remotes

Sencho Mesh now works against remotes in Distributed API mode in
addition to Pilot Agent mode. Central opens a short-lived WebSocket
tunnel to the remote's new `/api/mesh/proxy-tunnel` endpoint on demand
and tears it down after 5 minutes of idle (configurable via
`SENCHO_MESH_PROXY_TUNNEL_IDLE_MS`). Mesh dispatch is mode-agnostic at
the routing layer; `PilotTunnelManager.ensureBridge` resolves an
existing tunnel or asks the new `MeshProxyTunnelDialer` to dial.

The Routing tab badges now use a `reachableMode` classifier: `★ Local`
for local, `pilot offline` red badge for a pilot with a down tunnel,
and a new `unreachable` red badge surfacing the specific reason
(missing token, scope not full-admin, TLS failure, remote does not
support proxy mesh). Distributed API remotes with valid credentials
show no negative badge; the tunnel opens on first dial.

Auth: the proxy-tunnel WS upgrade requires an `Authorization: Bearer`
API token with the `full-admin` scope. Lower-scoped tokens are
rejected at upgrade time so a leaked read-only token cannot reach the
mesh data plane.

Bidirectional: the proxy-mode WS handler registers itself as the
local `MeshService` reverse dialer (compare-and-swap), so meshed
containers on a Distributed API remote can dial cross-node aliases
via `tcp_open_reverse` over the same tunnel. Cross-node relays
(`PilotTunnelBridge.acceptReverseRelay`) await `ensureBridge` so
proxy-to-proxy mesh works without standing tunnels.

* docs(mesh): describe Distributed API mesh and unreachable troubleshooting

Refresh the user-facing mesh documentation to reflect that mesh works
over both Pilot Agent and Distributed API remotes. Adds a
Troubleshooting accordion entry for the new `unreachable` Routing tab
badge so operators can match a tooltip reason ("api token rejected
(scope must be full-admin)", "remote does not support proxy mesh",
"TLS handshake failed", "api_url not set", "api token missing") to a
concrete fix.

* refactor(mesh): apply /simplify review findings

Five cleanups surfaced by the post-implementation code review pass.
No behaviour change for fleets running on `main`; only internal
structure improves.

- **Deterministic container IP shared.** Extract the compose-default
  network preference (`pickContainerIp`) and the conventional-name
  fast path (`lookupContainerIp`) into `backend/src/mesh/containerLookup.ts`.
  Both `MeshService.resolveContainerIp` (existing same-node fast
  path) and the switchboard's `resolveByComposeLabels` (proxy/pilot
  inbound dial) now use the same logic. Earlier the switchboard
  helper grabbed the first `Object.values(Networks)` IP, which
  could flip across daemon versions on multi-network containers;
  fixed.
- **WS URL upgrade extracted.** New `backend/src/utils/wsUrl.ts`
  exposes `httpUrlToWs(baseUrl)` that maps `http://` to `ws://` and
  `https://` to `wss://`. Used in both `pilot/agent.ts` and the
  proxy-tunnel dialer. The previous inline `replace(/^http/, 'ws')`
  silently downgraded `https://` to `ws://` (cleartext).
- **`computeReachable` takes the pre-fetched node.** `getStatus`
  already iterated `db.getNodes()`; the helper previously re-queried
  by id per node (N+1 reads). Pass the row in.
- **Reachable-reason ternary -> const map.** Replace the nested
  ternary in `MeshService.computeReachable` with a
  `Record<DialFailureCode, string>` lookup keyed on the dialer's
  failure code.
- **Activity-type ternary -> const map.** Same flattening inside
  `MeshProxyTunnelDialer.logActivity`.

All mesh tests pass (85/85). Full backend suite green (2126/2126).

* fix(mesh): cache proxy dial failures and contain WS handshake errors

`ensureBridge` now consults the recent-failure cache before dialing so a
continuous mesh workload against a misconfigured proxy-mode remote does
not produce one upgrade attempt per cross-node TCP open. `recordFailure`
emits at most one activity-log entry per cache window per (nodeId, code)
so a connect-loop on a single bad remote cannot flush the ring buffer.
Failure messages run through `redactSensitiveText` before reaching the
log so any embedded Bearer / JWT / inline-URL credentials are scrubbed.

`stop()` clears the inflight map and `dial()` checks `this.stopped`
between awaits so a shutdown does not leak a half-opened bridge.

When `awaitOpen` rejects (401, 4403, TLS), the dialer attaches a noop
'error' listener before calling `ws.close()`. Without it the ws library
emits a tail 'error' on a still-CONNECTING socket that propagates as an
unhandled exception. Surfaced by a live-network test against a real
proxy-mode peer.

Adds `mesh-proxy-tunnel-live.test.ts` (skipped unless MESH_AUDIT_URL
and MESH_AUDIT_TOKEN_FILE env vars are set) covering both the happy
path and the auth-rejected path against an actual remote Sencho.

* feat(mesh): instrument proxy tunnel observability

Adds three counters to `PilotMetrics`:
- `proxy_bridges_total` (incremented on `registerProxyBridge` success)
- `proxy_dials_failed` (every failed dial attempt, not deduped)
- `proxy_idle_closes` (idle-sweep teardowns)

All three surface automatically via `GET /api/system/pilot-tunnels`
since the route returns the full `Counters` snapshot.

Gates two pre-existing always-on `console.warn` calls in
`tcpStreamSwitchboard.ts` (mid-stream socket errors and Docker resolve
failures) behind `isDebugEnabled()`. Both fire on per-stream events and
would otherwise violate the diagnostic-log safety rule under load.

Adds `mesh-tcp-stream-switchboard.test.ts` covering the forward
`tcp_open` path: real localhost dial, resolver errors (no_target,
denied), per-tunnel cap saturation, frame-routing fall-through
invariants, `tcp_close` socket teardown.

Drops `MESH_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_MS` from the public surface; only the
switchboard itself uses it.

* fix(mesh): tighten Routing tab unreachable handling

`RoutingNodeCard.tsx`: the **Add stack to mesh** button now disables
when `reachableMode === 'unreachable'`, matching the existing
TogglePill behavior. Without this, an operator on an unreachable node
could open the opt-in sheet, confirm, and watch the redeploy proceed
against a target whose mesh data plane will silently fail to route.
Also drops the leftover `status.nodeId !== -1` guard on the pilot-
offline badge.

`MeshService.ts`: renames `isMeshReachable` to `isMeshConfigured` with
the new predicate that returns true for proxy-mode remotes whose creds
are valid (the tunnel is opened on demand). `getRouteDiagnostic` now
distinguishes "routable" (configured) from "pilotLive" (live tunnel
state, only meaningful for pilot mode); without the split, every idle
proxy-mode route would report `tunnel down`.

`MeshService.setReverseDialer` warns when the unconditional install
path silently overwrites a non-null current dialer. By topology a
Sencho is either pilot or central, so the branch flags a misconfigured
deployment rather than an expected race.

Drops the dead `export { ReverseTcpStreamHandle }` re-export from
`pilot/agent.ts`; its only consumer imports straight from
`mesh/tcpStreamSwitchboard.ts`. Fixes a stale doc comment in
`MeshService.ts` that referenced the wrong source file.

Adds `mesh-proxy-tunnel-handler.test.ts` covering the WS handler
lifecycle: pilot-mode 404 rejection, post-upgrade reverse-dialer
install, concurrent-upgrade 1013 rejection (single-tenant slot), and
error-path teardown.

Updates the troubleshooting accordion in the user docs to mention the
disabled-state behavior.

* fix(mesh): close ESLint and CodeQL findings on the proxy-tunnel diag logs

Remove the unused `reverseDialer` local in `meshProxyTunnel.ts`; the
closure target is `localDialer` above and this assignment was always
dead. Strip line breaks inline on the three `MeshProxyTunnelDialer`
diag log lines so CodeQL `js/log-injection` data flow recognises the
sanitisation that `sanitizeForLog` already performs.

No behaviour change; the diag logs render the same characters they
do today.

Anso 0947a80cda fix(mesh): trust central for cross-node dial auth and regenerate overrides at boot (#1014)
Two bugs in the same Phase D follow-up surface, fixed together because they
both block declaring B-verify complete on the production fleet.

Cross-node mesh dials returned `denied` at the agent. The pilot's
`tcp_open` handler in `agent.ts::resolveMeshTarget` consulted the local
SQLite `mesh_stacks` table, which is no longer written to under the
post-Phase D control plane (state lives only on central). Drop the check.
The pilot tunnel JWT (scope `pilot_tunnel`, signed with central's
`auth_jwt_secret`) authenticates the caller; the same trust model already
applies to filesystem ops, exec, and container control over the same
tunnel.

Threat-model trade-off: a leaked `pilot_tunnel` JWT or compromised
central can now dial any compose-managed service on the pilot. Containers
without `com.docker.compose.project` + `com.docker.compose.service`
labels remain unreachable via this path.

`MeshService.start()` did not regenerate compose override files at boot.
After a Sencho restart with missing overrides on disk, meshed user
containers had no `extra_hosts` / `networks: [sencho_mesh]` injection
until each stack was opted out and back in. Add `regenerateAllOverrides()`
that walks every `mesh_stacks` row and re-pushes via `pushOverrideToNode`.
Best-effort: per-stack failures log to the mesh activity buffer;
`MeshService.start()` is fire-and-forget at startup so a slow remote
node does not delay boot.

Tests:
- `pilot-agent-mesh-resolve.test.ts` (new): mocks dockerode and proves
  `resolveMeshTarget` no longer returns `denied` with an empty
  `mesh_stacks` table.
- `mesh-service.test.ts`: three new cases for `regenerateAllOverrides` -
  fan-out across the fleet, skip when `senchoIp` is null, log per-stack
  warning on push failure without throwing.

Anso 567e524450 feat(mesh): bidirectional routing via tcp_open_reverse and central relay (#1003)
* feat(mesh): bidirectional routing via tcp_open_reverse and central relay

Phase B of the mesh redesign. Adds the reverse-direction protocol so a
pilot's MeshForwarder can route cross-node traffic to central or to
another pilot. Central relays pilot-to-pilot streams transparently;
pilots keep their existing single outbound WS to central.

Protocol additions (backend/src/pilot/protocol.ts):
- TcpOpenReverseFrame { s, targetNodeId, stack, service, port } sent
  agent to primary. Reuses existing tcp_open_ack, tcp_close, and
  TcpData binary frames for the response and byte plane.
- AGENT_REVERSE_ID_BASE = 0x40000001 splits the 32-bit id space so
  agent-allocated reverse stream ids never collide with primary-
  allocated forward ids on the same tunnel.
- StreamIdAllocator now wraps to its configured start (not always 1)
  so an allocator parameterized with the agent base stays in the
  agent half across the wrap.

Agent (backend/src/pilot/agent.ts):
- New ReverseTcpStreamHandle exported class, EventEmitter facade
  matching PilotTunnelBridge.TcpStream's surface (write, end,
  destroy plus open, data, error, close events).
- Public openMeshTcpStream(target) allocates a reverse id, sends
  tcp_open_reverse, returns the handle.
- onTcpOpenAckReverse handles inbound ack, dispatches open or
  error+close to the matching handle.
- TcpData and tcp_close binary/JSON paths route ids in the reverse
  range to reverseTcpStreams; existing primary-allocated paths
  unchanged.
- streamCount, cleanupAfterDisconnect, onStreamIdle include reverse
  streams. The allocator is reset to a fresh base on disconnect so
  long-lived agents that reconnect many times do not drift up the id
  space.
- startPilotAgent registers the agent as MeshService's reverse
  dialer via lazy import.

Bridge (backend/src/services/PilotTunnelBridge.ts):
- Two new StreamState kinds: reverse_local (target = central, dial
  Dockerode container IP) and reverse_relay (target = another pilot,
  open a forward TcpStream on the target pilot's bridge).
- handleTcpOpenReverse validates the agent-id range and stream cap,
  then dispatches to acceptReverseLocal or acceptReverseRelay via
  lazy imports of MeshService, NodeRegistry, and PilotTunnelManager
  (avoids module cycles).
- acceptReverseLocal calls MeshService.resolveContainerIp (now
  public), opens net.createConnection, splices bytes through the
  tunnel. Pre-connect error handler is removed inside connect to
  avoid double-firing with the mid-stream error path.
- acceptReverseRelay opens a forward TcpStream on the target
  bridge, splices bytes between the two tunnels.
- Existing tcp_close and TcpData handlers extended for the new
  state kinds. teardownStream extended.

MeshService (backend/src/services/MeshService.ts):
- resolveContainerIp made public so the bridge's local-target path
  can dial the same shape.
- New reverseDialer field plus setReverseDialer setter. Pilot mode
  registers the agent at boot; central mode leaves it null.
- New private dialMeshTcpStream dispatcher: pilot side uses the
  reverse dialer, central side uses PilotTunnelManager.getBridge.
- openCrossNode refactored to call the dispatcher and use the
  active-stream record's id for activity logging.
- New exported MeshTcpStreamLike interface that both
  PilotTunnelBridge.TcpStream and ReverseTcpStreamHandle satisfy
  structurally; ReverseMeshDialer is the contract for the setter.

Tests (3 files, 16 new cases, 172 total pass):
- pilot-protocol-tcp.test.ts: tcp_open_reverse round-trip; agent
  base invariant.
- pilot-agent-reverse-stream.test.ts: openMeshTcpStream allocation,
  ws-not-open, frame shape, write encoding, end emits tcp_close,
  ack-success, ack-failure, low-id ack ignored, inbound TcpData
  routing.
- pilot-bridge-reverse.test.ts: id-range validation, no-target
  failure, successful local dial against a real upstream server.

Together with PR #1000 (Phase A) and PR #1001 (deps), Phase B
completes the central-pilot-pilot mesh routing matrix. Phase C
(mesh over proxy-mode remotes) is the planned follow-up.

* test(pilot): drop unused encodeJsonFrame import

Lint failed on pilot-agent-reverse-stream.test.ts after the test
changed from constructing tcp_open_reverse frames inline to driving
the agent's frame-dispatch path with synthetic objects. The import
is no longer referenced; ESLint's no-unused-vars rule rejected it.

Anso a6d3e5d052 fix(pilot): inject loopback auth on agent-side HTTP/WS forwarding (#990)
After the central proxy forwards a request through the pilot tunnel, the
agent receives an http_req or ws_open frame and opens a local loopback
request to its own Sencho server. The forwarder previously copied the
inbound headers verbatim with no Authorization header, so the local
authMiddleware rejected every proxied call with 401 Authentication
required. The central cannot sign the missing token because each Sencho
instance has its own auth_jwt_secret generated at first-run setup.

The agent process runs in the same Node process as the local Sencho
server and shares the local DatabaseService, so it can mint a fresh
pilot_tunnel-scoped JWT signed with the local secret. Token TTL is 5
minutes with a refresh-on-use 4-minute cache to avoid jwt.sign on every
request. The header is built once per request via buildLoopbackHeaders
and applied to both onHttpReq and onWsOpen so the two forwarder paths
stay in lockstep. The local authMiddleware accepts the scope through
its existing pilot_tunnel branch with no special-case bypass.

Together with the proxy-side change in the previous commit, this
completes the central, bridge, agent, local-Sencho HTTP path for
pilot-agent-mode nodes.

Anso 8f13a7faf3 fix(pilot): stop silently swallowing fs errors in agent token helpers (#985)
* fix(pilot): stop silently swallowing fs errors in agent token helpers

The pilot-agent audit found that both filesystem-touching helpers in
the agent process discarded every fs error class:

  - readPersistedToken caught all errors and returned null. ENOENT
    (normal first boot) and EACCES / EIO / EROFS (a real disk or
    volume-permission failure) were indistinguishable; the latter
    silently fell back to "no persisted token", and on a node where
    the enrollment token had already been consumed the agent would
    enter a re-enrollment loop with no log signal pointing at the disk.
  - persistToken caught all errors and logged at console.warn. The
    operator saw the next-boot loop with the same diagnostic gap.

Replace both with errno-aware handling:

  - readPersistedToken calls fs.readFileSync directly (no TOCTOU race
    against existsSync), treats ENOENT as silent, and logs every other
    errno at ERROR with the path.
  - persistToken logs at ERROR (not WARN) with the failing errno and an
    explicit "next agent restart will require re-enrollment until the
    volume is writable" message. The agent still continues with the
    in-memory token so the current session is unaffected.

Both helpers are now exported (marked @internal) so the new test file
can mock fs and assert the error-class-vs-log-level matrix.

12 unit cases in pilot-agent-fs-errors.test.ts cover ENOENT,
EACCES, EIO, EROFS, ENOSPC, missing errno, empty file, and the
happy path. Mock pattern follows backend/src/__tests__/filesystem.test.ts.

* fix(pilot): address code-review on the fs-error branch

Three findings from the review pass:

  - Em dash in a test description (Directive 18). Rewritten as
    "does not throw, so the in-memory token stays usable for the
    current session".
  - persistToken still had an existsSync + mkdirSync pair around
    the token-write. mkdirSync({ recursive: true }) is idempotent on
    existing directories, so the existsSync was redundant and added
    a TOCTOU window where the directory could be removed between the
    probe and the write. Dropped the existsSync; the test that
    previously primed mockExistsSync now asserts mockExistsSync is
    NOT called, locking the TOCTOU removal.
  - The two new exports used the @internal JSDoc tag, but this
    repo's existing pattern for "public-by-convention-for-tests"
    helpers (e.g. RegistryService.ts:481) is plain prose
    "Exposed for unit tests." Switched to that style.

No behavior change beyond the TOCTOU removal.

Anso 3d9489648e fix(pilot): harden outbound reverse-tunnel against resource exhaustion (#979)
* fix(pilot): cap tunnel frame size, concurrent streams, and stream idle time

Pilot tunnels carry every HTTP, WS, and Mesh-TCP byte for a remote node
through a single multiplexed WebSocket. A buggy or compromised peer that
sent oversized frames, opened streams in a tight loop, or left streams
parked indefinitely could exhaust gateway memory.

Three protocol-level limits applied symmetrically on both ends:

  - MAX_FRAME_SIZE_BYTES (8 MB): set as the ws maxPayload on the
    gateway-side WebSocketServer and the agent-side WebSocket client,
    plus a defense-in-depth length check in decodeBinaryFrame and
    decodeJsonFrame.
  - MAX_STREAMS_PER_TUNNEL (1024): bridge refuses new loopback HTTP /
    upgrade / TCP allocations with 503 once at the cap; the agent
    rejects new incoming http_req / ws_open / tcp_open with the
    appropriate error frame.
  - STREAM_IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS (10 min): every stream gets a per-stream
    timer refreshed on each inbound or outbound activity. Expiry tears
    down the local half and notifies the peer.

The constants are colocated in pilot/protocol.ts so any future agent
build picks them up via the protocol module.

* fix(pilot): rate-limit pilot enrollment endpoints to 10 per minute

Pilot enrollment mints a JWT and writes a pilot_enrollments row, both
privileged operations that should not share the global API budget
(200/min). Add a dedicated express-rate-limit instance keyed by user or
IP at 10/min in production (100/min in dev so the local enrollment
test loop is not throttled).

The limiter is applied directly on POST /api/nodes/:id/pilot/enroll.
On POST /api/nodes the limiter's skip function reads the parsed body
and exempts proxy-mode creates; only requests that resolve to
mode=pilot_agent count against the enrollment budget.

* fix(pilot): cap concurrent pilot tunnels system-wide

The PilotTunnelManager held an unbounded Map of bridges. A reconnect
storm, runaway enrollment, or operator misconfiguration could grow the
map without limit, even though every tunnel still carries a valid JWT.

Cap at 256 concurrent tunnels per primary instance:

  - Soft warning at 128 (logged once per crossing).
  - Hard refusal at 256: registerTunnel throws PilotTunnelCapacityError
    and the upgrade handler closes the WebSocket with 1013 (Try Again
    Later) so the agent backs off rather than tight-looping.

A node that already has a registered tunnel does not consume a new
slot when it reconnects; the existing bridge is closed first.

* fix(pilot): release backpressure as soon as the tunnel buffer drains

Previously the bridge paused HTTP request bodies when the tunnel
WebSocket's bufferedAmount climbed above 4 MB but never resumed them
explicitly; the next data event re-checked the threshold, and TCP
streams only saw a 'drain' fan-out on the 30 s ping cycle. Slow-consumer
peers held buffered bytes for tens of seconds longer than needed.

Replace both with an on-demand drain check: when at least one stream
is paused, sample bufferedAmount every 100 ms; once it drops below the
high-water mark, resume every paused request and emit 'drain' to every
accepted TCP stream, then stop the timer. Dormant when no stream is
paused, so steady-state cost is zero.

* fix(pilot): trust internal CAs via SENCHO_PILOT_CA_FILE

Self-hosted deployments often terminate TLS with an internal CA. The
only previous escape hatch was NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0, which
disables verification across every outbound connection in the agent
process and is the wrong shape of fix.

Add SENCHO_PILOT_CA_FILE: when set, the agent reads the file as a PEM
bundle and passes it to ws as the `ca` option for the tunnel
WebSocket. rejectUnauthorized remains true. Failure to read the file
exits with a clear error so the operator does not silently fall back
to the default trust store.

There is no flag to disable TLS verification entirely; that would
defeat the credential trust model.

* fix(pilot): gate frame-rate-adjacent logs behind developer_mode

The agent's malformed-frame warning fires per inbound frame and could
flood logs under attack or against a buggy primary. The bridge swallowed
parse errors silently, leaving operators blind to protocol drift, and
the manager had no signal at all on tunnel registration.

Route per-frame and per-tunnel diagnostic logs through the existing
isDebugEnabled() helper (same pattern used by middleware/auth, RBAC,
and websocket/logs). Production stays quiet by default; the toggle is
the existing developer_mode setting in global_settings — no new env
var, no new dependency.

* feat(pilot): expose per-tunnel metrics via /api/system/pilot-tunnels

Operator support had no signal beyond raw logs to answer "is this
tunnel flapping?" or "is one bad node hiding behind the aggregate?".
Add an in-process counter set covering tunnels_total, tunnels_replaced,
tunnels_rejected_capacity, enroll_acks, frame_decode_errors, plus a
per-node array carrying the connectedAt and bufferedAmount so a single
tunnel sitting on a stuck buffer remains visible.

Counters live in services/PilotMetrics.ts; the gateway has no shared
in-process metrics facility today, so this is a per-feature pattern
documented as such for future consolidation. Counters are strictly
process-local — no telemetry, no export, no phone-home — consistent
with Sencho's privacy posture.

Surfaced read-only via GET /api/system/pilot-tunnels behind admin auth,
mirroring the existing cache-stats endpoint.

* fix(pilot): tighten reconnect backoff and log handling

Three small follow-ups to the hardening pass:

  - Sanitize the primary URL on the agent's connect log so a malicious
    SENCHO_PRIMARY_URL with embedded control characters cannot inject
    fake log lines.
  - Move the reconnect-backoff reset from the 'open' callback to the
    'hello' frame handler. A peer that always rejects the handshake
    (incompatible version, consumed enrollment token) used to reset
    the backoff on every TCP-level connect and tight-loop reconnects;
    now the reset waits for a clean protocol round-trip.
  - Document the StreamIdAllocator wrap behavior so future readers
    can see the relationship between the 2^31 wrap and the
    MAX_STREAMS_PER_TUNNEL cap without re-deriving it.

* test(pilot): add coverage for enrollment, rate limiter, and tunnel caps

Adds two test files exercising the hardening pass surfaces that were
previously uncovered:

  - pilot-enrollment.test.ts: end-to-end through POST /api/nodes
    (pilot mode), POST /api/nodes/:id/pilot/enroll, the SHA256
    token-hash persistence, replay protection, expired enrollments,
    and the rate-limit header wiring (enrollment limiter on pilot
    paths, global limiter elsewhere).
  - pilot-bridge-limits.test.ts: oversize-frame rejection at both
    binary and JSON decoders, and the per-tunnel concurrent stream
    cap as observed via openTcpStream returning null and the loopback
    HTTP server returning 503 once the bridge is at capacity.

Bridge cap test fills the slot map with TCP stream handles rather than
real HTTP requests so the OS socket pool stays out of the picture.

* test(pilot): cover manager metrics snapshot and capacity-error shape

Adds direct coverage for:

  - PilotTunnelCapacityError exposing the limit so the upgrade
    handler can format a useful close-frame reason.
  - PilotMetrics.snapshot returning a defensive copy (callers must not
    mutate the live counter set).
  - getMetricsSnapshot returning the open count, per-node breakdown,
    and counter set in a stable shape, with tunnels_total bumping on
    a successful registerTunnel.

The manager test seeds a real pilot-mode node row first because
updateNode throws on missing rows; this models the production path
where a node is created before its enrollment is consumed.

* docs(pilot): document tunnel limits, custom CA, and new failure modes

Refresh the Pilot Agent feature doc to cover the hardening surfaces:

  - New 'Self-signed primary TLS certs' section walking through the
    SENCHO_PILOT_CA_FILE env var with an example docker run command.
  - New 'Resource limits' section listing the per-tunnel and
    system-wide ceilings so operators know what the wire enforces.
  - Four new troubleshooting entries: WebSocket close 1013 (system
    cap), loopback 503 (stream cap), close 1002 with protocol error
    (frame size / malformed), and HTTP 429 on enrollment.

Also expand .env.example with a new pilot-agent block covering
SENCHO_MODE, SENCHO_PRIMARY_URL, SENCHO_ENROLL_TOKEN, and
SENCHO_PILOT_CA_FILE so operators do not have to read code or the
feature doc to discover the agent-side config surface.

* fix(pilot): address code-review findings on the hardening pass

Critical:
  - Bridge: TCP backpressure now starts the drain timer and tracks
    streams awaiting drain, so a TcpStream caller waiting on 'drain'
    no longer hangs when no HTTP request is in flight.
  - Bridge: every direct streams.delete call now goes through the
    removeStream helper so per-stream idle timers are cleared
    consistently and pausedReqs / tcpAwaitingDrain stay aligned.
  - Bridge close(): resume any paused IncomingMessage before clearing
    the map so a parser does not stay stuck across teardown.

High:
  - Protocol: decodeJsonFrame now compares Buffer.byteLength(raw,
    'utf8') against the cap; raw.length (UTF-16 code units) let
    multi-byte payloads sneak ~3x the byte budget through.
  - Agent: the optional CA bundle is read once at construction and
    cached on the instance, so a missing or rotated SENCHO_PILOT_CA_FILE
    no longer process-exits on every reconnect attempt.

Medium / Low:
  - Bridge limits test: assert mockWs.sent.length to confirm slot
    allocations actually serialized a tcp_open frame and that a
    rejected (cap+1) attempt did not consume a stream id.
  - Manager: defer the tunnels_replaced increment until after the
    cap check passes, so a rejected reconnect does not double-count
    as both replacement and capacity rejection.
  - Manager: clarify the protocol comment about MAX_FRAME_SIZE_BYTES
    enforcement layering (ws maxPayload is authoritative; decoder
    check is for tests and defense-in-depth).
  - Limiter: defensive `if (!req.body) return false` so a future
    refactor that delays body parsing cannot silently skip the
    enrollment limiter.

Deferred (documented as follow-ups, not in this branch):
  - M2: narrowing public surface of PilotTunnelManager.getBridge to a
    MeshTunnelHandle interface (cross-cutting refactor).
  - H4: end-to-end replay test driving the upgrade handler twice
    with the same enrollment JWT (needs WS test harness).

Anso 7663f4cd8b feat(fleet): sencho mesh in traffic and routing tab (#858)
* feat(fleet): sencho mesh in traffic and routing tab

Lights up Sencho Mesh: cross-node container forwarding rendered as if the
container next to you were on localhost. Builds on the dormant TCP frame
plumbing from the prior PR (pilot tunnel TCP frames + sencho-mesh sidecar
package) and exposes the Admiral-only orchestrator surface.

Backend
- New mesh_stacks table (per-node opt-ins) + nodes.mesh_enabled column
  via DatabaseService.migrateMeshTables.
- MeshService singleton: sidecar lifecycle via Dockerode, opt-in/out with
  cascading override regeneration, request-based resolver from sidecar
  control WS, cross-node TCP forwarding via PilotTunnelManager (same-node
  fast path included), in-memory 1000-event activity ring buffer with
  durable mirror to audit_log for state-change events, per-node and
  per-route diagnostics, and the Test upstream probe.
- MeshComposeOverride: pure YAML generator that injects extra_hosts using
  host-gateway. The user's docker-compose.yml is never mutated; overrides
  live under DATA_DIR/mesh/overrides.
- ComposeService deploy/update splice the override file when the stack
  is opted in; non-mesh stacks behave identically to today.
- Pilot agent resolveMeshTarget consults the local mesh_stacks table
  (defense in depth) and resolves Compose containers via Dockerode.
- /api/mesh router with 13 Admiral-gated endpoints covering status,
  enable/disable, stack opt-in/out, alias listing, per-route diagnostic,
  Test upstream probe, per-node diagnostic, sidecar restart, activity
  log paginated and SSE.
- meshControl WS slot at /api/mesh/control validates the mesh_sidecar
  JWT minted by MeshService; dispatched as upgrade slot 2 (canonical
  order preserved).

Frontend
- New Traffic Routing tab in FleetView, gated by isAdmiral and wrapped
  in AdmiralGate. Tab uses the cyan brand glyph and italic-serif state
  typography from the audit.
- RoutingTab masthead with mesh activity drawer, per-node card grid
  with TogglePill, alias rows with five-state pill taxonomy
  (healthy / degraded / unreachable / tunnel-down / not-authorized),
  inline Test buttons.
- Four sheets: opt-in picker with port-collision inline error,
  per-route detail with diagnostic + filtered activity, per-node
  diagnostics with active streams + resolver cache + restart action,
  fleet-wide activity log with filters.
- meshRouteState helper centralizes pill-state mapping; pure-function
  tests cover all five states.

Docs
- User docs at /docs/features/sencho-mesh.mdx covering opt-in,
  troubleshooting, security model (4 guarantees + 4 explicit
  non-guarantees), and V1 limitations.
- Internal architecture and runbook pages.
- websocket-dispatch internal doc updated with the new slot.

* fix(mesh): validate stack name before path use; fix test DB lifecycle

Two surgical fixes against the prior PR.

Path-injection (CodeQL js/path-injection): MeshService.optInStack,
optOutStack, ensureStackOverride, and removeStackOverride now validate
stackName via isValidStackName from utils/validation, reject malicious
names at the API boundary, and additionally check isPathWithinBase on
the resolved override file path for defense in depth. The dataflow from
req.params.stackName to fs.writeFile no longer reaches an unsanitized
path expression.

Test DB lifecycle: mesh-service.test.ts used per-test setupTestDb /
cleanupTestDb, which deletes the temp dir while DatabaseService still
holds an open SQLite handle. On Linux CI this raises
SQLITE_READONLY_DBMOVED on the next prepare() because the inode has
been unlinked. Switched to file-scoped beforeAll/afterAll matching
agents-routes.test.ts, with a per-test beforeEach that truncates
mesh_stacks plus non-default nodes and resets the MeshService singleton
in-memory state. Adds a new test case asserting the path-traversal
rejection.

* fix(compose): use discovered compose filename instead of hardcoded docker-compose.yml

composeArgs() hardcoded `-f docker-compose.yml` for every deploy. Sencho
writes its canonical compose file as `compose.yaml`, so any stack created
via the UI failed to deploy with `open ...docker-compose.yml: no such
file or directory`.

When no mesh override applies, drop the explicit `-f` so docker compose's
built-in discovery resolves the actual filename. When an override exists,
look up the real base filename via FileSystemService.getComposeFilename()
and pass both files explicitly.

Also hoist the MeshService import to module top now that the dependency
is known to be acyclic, and revert the matching unit-test assertion.

Anso 6893ece898 feat(pilot): add tcp tunnel frames + mesh sidecar package (#857)
Lays the dormant data-plane foundation for Sencho Mesh. The pilot tunnel
gains TCP forwarding frames (tcp_open / tcp_open_ack / tcp_close JSON
plus a 0x04 TcpData binary type) and a TcpStream surface on the bridge
so a future MeshService can ride the existing WSS tunnel for cross-node
container traffic. The agent rejects every tcp_open with mesh_not_enabled
until a follow-up PR wires the Dockerode resolver gated by a
mesh_stacks opt-in table; ships dormant.

A new top-level mesh-sidecar/ package provides the per-node container
that will host the L4 forwarder + control WS in production. Built as a
small Node 22 alpine image and published in lockstep with the main
sencho image via a parallel docker-publish workflow job.

Tests cover protocol roundtrips on both packages and the sidecar
forwarder end-to-end including resolve, splice, close, and stats.

Anso 4e5ba17710 refactor(backend): sanitize user input before logging to close CRLF injection (#807)
* refactor(backend): sanitize user input before logging to close CRLF injection

Adds a small sanitizeForLog helper that strips CR, LF, tab, and ASCII
control characters (0x00-0x1F, 0x7F) from a value before it is embedded
in a console.log/warn/error/debug call. Wraps every call site where a
user-controlled value (req.params, req.body, req.query, or a value
derived from them) flows into a log message.

Closes the bulk of the open CodeQL alerts in this family:
- 96 js/log-injection
- 28 js/tainted-format-string

The helper is in backend/src/utils/safeLog.ts. Routes still pre-validate
input at the request boundary; this is the second line of defense and
gives static analyzers a sanitizer they can trace through. JSON
responses, Docker filter labels, and other non-log call sites are
intentionally left unwrapped.

* refactor(backend): printf-style format strings for tainted-log call sites

CodeQL's js/tainted-format-string rule flags template literals in the first
arg of console.X when any interpolated value is user-controlled, regardless
of whether each value is sanitized inline. The canonical mitigation is to
use a static format string and pass values as positional args.

Converts the 28 flagged template literals to printf-style ("%s") format
strings, with sanitizeForLog applied to each positional arg. Also fills in
the log-injection wraps on 9 sites where a user-controlled value was
missed in the first sweep (agents, fleet, gitSources, imageUpdates,
GitSourceService).

No behavior change at runtime. Node's util.format substitutes %s tokens
identically to template-literal interpolation.

* fix(backend): wrap nodeId/snapshotId in fleet restore debug log

CodeQL flagged the unwrapped numeric args even though they cannot
contain control chars in practice. Apply the sanitizer for taint-flow
recognition.

Anso 8e7a567f69 feat: pilot agent outbound-mode for remote nodes (#667)
* feat: pilot agent outbound-mode for remote nodes

Adds a second mode for managing remote nodes: the agent dials an outbound
WebSocket tunnel to the primary, so the remote host no longer needs an
inbound port, a reachable URL, or its own TLS certificate. Works behind
NAT, residential routers, and corporate firewalls.

The primary multiplexes HTTP and WebSocket requests over a single tunnel
via a hybrid JSON + binary frame protocol, bridged through a per-tunnel
loopback server so existing proxy and upgrade handlers route pilot-mode
nodes identically to proxy-mode ones.

Enrollment uses a single-use 15-minute pilot_enroll JWT exchanged for a
long-lived pilot_tunnel credential on first connect. Proxy mode continues
to work unchanged and both modes are supported side-by-side.

* test(e2e): switch to proxy mode before asserting api_url field

Remote nodes default to Pilot Agent mode, which hides the api_url input.
The SSRF-validation tests need proxy mode, so the helper now selects
Distributed API Proxy after picking Remote type before asserting the
field is visible.

* fix(e2e): wire Combobox id prop so node-mode selector resolves

The Combobox trigger button had no id, leaving its Label orphaned and
making getByRole name-based lookups fail. Adding id to the primitive,
passing id="node-mode" from NodeManager, and updating the E2E helper to
use #node-mode fixes both the a11y regression and the CI timeout.
