The operator looked at demo-felhom the morning after v0.233.0 and found OpenGist
- up 15 hours, running exactly the catalog pin - showing no badge at all.
v0.233.0 wrote the record only from the four bring-up paths, so an app nobody
restarts carried no record indefinitely. On a quiet box that is every app, which
is the box we most want to see. The known limitation WAS the feature not working.
BackfillInstalledImages runs once at startup, beside BackfillDesiredState and
before the boot reconciler. It READS containers: starts nothing, restarts
nothing, writes no compose file. It never overwrites an existing record.
And it REFUSES to seed a partial observation, which is why this is not a
three-line loop: the badge reads a service-count mismatch as BEHIND, so seeding a
degraded app from what is visible would render 'Frissites elerheto' over an app
that is perfectly current. The bring-up paths may write a partial because they
follow a successful up -d where a gap is real news; a backfill meets any state.
Same data, two writers, two admission rules - deliberately.
Also fixes a calendar bomb of mine: the render test hardcoded catalog_since and
the string '46 napja', but the render path reads time.Now(), so it was green on
the day it was written and red the next morning. Now derived. Filed as R-457
with six other candidate files named as unchecked, not accused.
+5 tests (1724 -> 1729), 28 packages green. Red-proof of the partial guard run
and reverted; the wiring and its ORDER pinned by an AST walk.
Update arc slices 1 and 2. NEITHER CHANGES ANY BEHAVIOUR — no new endpoint, no
auto-update, the three lifecycle buttons byte-identical.
Slice 1 — app.yaml gains installed_images, keyed by compose SERVICE name, each
entry carrying ref + repo digest + first-seen timestamp. Written by
Manager.recordInstalledImages after a successful compose up from StartStack,
RestartStack, UpdateStack and runComposeDeploy. Read from the CONTAINER, never
from docker-compose.yml: the syncer overwrites a deployed app's compose on a
15-minute cycle and the two disagreed for 25 minutes in the spike's own
measurement. A failed write NEVER refuses the action - the deliberate opposite
of SetDesiredState, because this is an observation and that is an intent. Not
called from StartStackServices (the R-47 DB-only window). Its own docker seam
with a context and a 30s timeout, which neither existing exec helper has.
Slice 2 — .felhom.yml gains optional catalog_since; web.updateBadge compares the
recorded ref per service against what the current template pins and returns a
*MetaBadge through the EXISTING meta_badge partial. No new markup, no new CSS.
NO RECORD RENDERS NOTHING: absent means unknown and never means current. No
version number reaches the customer and no registry is queried.
Known limitation, filed not hidden: 23 catalog pins float, so those apps can read
Naprakesz when the image behind the tag has moved.
+17 tests (1707 -> 1724), 28 packages green. Wiring proven through a real
RestartStack plus an AST walk of the four call sites. Three companion red-proofs
run and reverted.
