gates / gates (push) Successful in 17s
The alarm ladder gains the severity contract (the hub's vocabulary is exact, it coerces silently, and three things now hold it) and the intent test with its three-way ruling on unknown. Both marked [DESIGN] with the live measurements. Part 5 is RECORDED AND NOT IMPLEMENTED: the operator's notification philosophy, verbatim, marked plainly as direction rather than current behaviour, with the 12 -> 15 toggle growth as the argument. Filed as R-388, a product decision. R-329 and R-386 compressed into CLOSED-ITEMS with their rules kept and the full-text commit named. R-387 filed closed - including WHY the dispatcher branch was kept rather than deleted, which is evidence (three monitor checkers call ProcessEvent directly) and not caution. The drill record names three things that had to be re-run: an inert red-proof mutation, Scenario G refused twice behind an HTTP 200, and the live Scenario A NOT proving the customer gate because demo-hp has no prefs row at all. Register: OPEN 328325 -> 328132 B, CLOSED 71441 -> 74642 B.

# REPORT — felhom.eu: hub v0.107.0 (R-387), the alarm ladder, and golden 0.223.0
|
|
|
|
**Session 2026-08-23.** Companion to `felhom-controller` v0.223.0 (R-329, R-386) — see that repo's
|
|
`REPORT.md` for the controller work and the full live walk.
|
|
|
|
## 1. Baselines, and the hub's four numbers as read
|
|
|
|
| Repo | at start | at end |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| felhom.eu | `55274d5e` | hub **v0.107.0** deployed |
|
|
| felhom-controller | `14137efa` (v0.222.0) | **v0.223.0** deployed |
|
|
| felhom-agent | `40d857b5` | untouched |
|
|
|
|
**Hub's four numbers, read live from `GET /configuration` before starting:**
|
|
`golden_version` **0.222.0** · `agent_version` **0.130.0** · `min_agent` **0.129.0** ·
|
|
controller floor **0.222.0**. All four as the task predicted; the operator's 0.222.0 vouch had landed.
|
|
|
|
## 2. The hub's deployment path — §6's premise was wrong, and here it is
|
|
|
|
**`felhom.eu/manifests/hub.yaml`, line 128.** ArgoCD `Application/felhom` tracks
|
|
`https://gitea.dooplex.hu/admin/felhom.eu.git`, path `manifests`, with `syncPolicy.automated.enabled
|
|
= false`. Bumped `0.106.0 → 0.107.0` in commit **`68a9f54`**. **There is no out-of-git deployment
|
|
path** — the finding §6 braced for does not exist. The image was built and pushed to the registry
|
|
**before** the manifest landed, so a sync could never have pointed at a missing tag, and the sync was
|
|
then requested deliberately (`refresh=hard`, then a patched `operation`). Never `kubectl set image`.
|
|
|
|
## 3. R-387 — what was wrong
|
|
|
|
One handler, two fields, opposite discipline: an unknown `event_type` is rejected with a loud `400`;
|
|
an unknown `severity` was rewritten to `info` **without a word**, and `severityNotifies` drops `info`
|
|
before *both* legs. **The guard built to catch exactly this sat downstream of the rewrite** — the
|
|
dispatcher's `unrecognized severity` line can never execute for an API event, because the coercion one
|
|
line earlier guarantees the value it looks for cannot arrive.
|
|
|
|
**Measured on the live hub DB:** `91` `app_start_failed` events stored all-time, **`0`
|
|
`notification_log` rows before this session** — not one, on any channel, while every POST returned 200.
|
|
|
|
**The coercion stays.** A rejected event is a *lost* event, and losing an alarm is worse than
|
|
mis-routing one. Only the silence is fixed.
|
|
|
|
## 4. The dead-branch decision, and the reason
|
|
|
|
**KEPT.** Not caution — evidence. `cmd/hub/main.go` wires `dispatcher.ProcessEvent` **directly** as
|
|
the `monitor.EventNotifyFunc` for the staleness, host-staleness and offsite-box checkers, and those
|
|
hub-generated events never pass through the ingest handler at all. For every one of them that line is
|
|
the **only** severity guard there is. Deleting it as "dead" would have removed the live half while the
|
|
dead half supplied the justification.
|
|
|
|
Verified while deciding: **all 90 severity literals in `internal/monitor` are already valid**, so the
|
|
guard is silent because the producers are correct. (`"warn"` in `internal/web` is UI badge vocabulary,
|
|
not a severity.)
|
|
|
|
## 5. Files changed, commits, CI

|
|
**CI runs confirmed BY ID** (`id` and `run_number` diverge — both printed): see §5 of the controller
|
|
REPORT for its runs; felhom.eu's are listed at the end of this file.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Tests and red-proofs
|
|
|
|
`internal/api/r387_severity_visibility_test.go` — the event is **not lost**, the stored severity is
|
|
still `info`, and the WARN names customer + type + value; plus a guard that a **valid** severity stays
|
|
silent, because an alarm on the normal path is one people learn to ignore.
|
|
`internal/notify/r329_app_start_failed_test.go` — the routing consequence: operator emailed, customer
|
|
not, unless opted in, in which case both legs deliver and the customer's copy carries the Hungarian
|
|
template. Scenario B is also the **positive control** for Scenario A's absence claim.
|
|
|
|
Test count **702 → 709**.
|
|
|
|
**Red-proof (seen failing):** delete the ingest `WARN` → `the hub rewrote a severity and said
|
|
nothing`, with the log showing only the ordinary `[INFO] Event from c1: backup_failed (info)`. The
|
|
guard sits at **ingest**, because that is the last point at which the offending value still exists.
|
|
|
|
## 7. Golden
|
|
|
|
**Baked and PUBLISHED: 0.223.0.** `GOLDEN_SHA256 =
|
|
9eaf39ac39219b42ec9e6cbf890275febcdcc6f53325fe0c0f591d3431044f17`; `upload OK (HTTP 201)`; round-trip
|
|
**HTTP 206**; all five acceptance markers counted (`docker OK (overlay2` 1, `including mount point` 2,
|
|
`upload OK` 1, `excluding` 0, `FATAL` 0). **VOUCHING IS THE OPERATOR'S ACT AND WAS NOT DONE HERE.**
|
|
|
|
**Runbook deviation, second session running:** §4.1 omits `pveam update`, so the `virgin` snapshot's
|
|
stale template index fails as `400 … no such template`.
|
|
|
|
## 8. Scenario H, live against v0.107.0
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[WARN] [api] Event from demo-hp: severity "warn" is not in {info,warning,error,critical} — coercing
|
|
to "info", which severityNotifies DROPS, so this backup_failed alert will reach NOBODY. Fix the
|
|
emitting controller; this event is stored but not routed.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Both the bad-severity POST and the `error` control returned **200** (nothing lost), and the control
|
|
produced **no** warning — the guard does not fire on the normal path.
|
|
|
|
## 9. Register size
|
|
|
|
| File | Before | After |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `OPEN-ITEMS.md` | 328,325 B | **328,132 B** |
|
|
| `CLOSED-ITEMS.md` | 71,441 B | **74,642 B** |
|
|
|
|
R-329 and R-386 compressed into CLOSED with their rules kept; **R-387** (closed) and **R-388** (the
|
|
notification-model product decision, open, operator's call) filed.
|
|
|
|
## 10. Observations — recorded, not acted on
|
|
|
|
1. **The operator cooldown key carries no app identifier.** PrivateBin's alarm four minutes after
|
|
BookStack's was logged `suppressed — operator cooldown 1h, key=demo-hp:app_start_failed`, so **only
|
|
the first app-down per hour reaches the operator by e-mail**. R-182's known shape; harmless while
|
|
the event was undeliverable, and no longer. Not fixed here.
|
|
2. Two probe events remain as rows for `demo-hp` from Scenario H — inert, and named rather than left.
