# package-updater — Claude context Master/agent fleet updater. A master (UI behind OIDC, Postgres) shows every Compose stack, Swarm service and container on every machine and starts updates; one agent per machine (`/var/run/docker.sock` mounted) reports its inventory and runs the jobs. Both are in one image: `updater-master` and `updater-agent`. See `README.md` for user-facing docs. This file is for working ON the code. ## Commands ```bash go test ./... # all tests, fast (no docker, no postgres) go test -race ./internal/agent/... ./internal/master/... ./internal/e2e/ go test -run TestFoo ./internal/master/hub # single test go build ./cmd/master ./cmd/agent # produce ./master and ./agent docker build -t package-updater:dev . # multi-stage, builds golang:1.26-alpine # Postgres tests (store), against any throwaway database: DATABASE_URL=postgres://... go test -tags integration ./internal/master/store/ ``` ## Architecture (one-line per package) - `cmd/master` — wiring only: config → store → hub → jobs → web, two listeners (UI, agents over pinned TLS) - `cmd/agent` — wiring only: config → docker client → inventory → job runner → master connection - `internal/protocol` — the WebSocket messages both sides speak (`Version`, `JobStart`, `JobResult`, ...) - `internal/pin` — master key pair, certificate and fingerprint pinning - `internal/agenttoken` — agent token generation and hashing - `internal/imageref` — image reference parsing (repo, tag, digest) - `internal/logging` — slog JSON, request-id context propagation - `internal/agent/config` — env-var loading; fails fast on missing `MASTER_URL`/`MASTER_KEY`/`AGENT_TOKEN` - `internal/agent/inventory` — reads Compose, Swarm and plain containers from the Docker daemon - `internal/agent/conn` — dial, hello, snapshot, job messages, reconnect with backoff; one writer goroutine per session - `internal/agent/updater` — job `Runner` (single FIFO worker, outbox until acked), Compose and Swarm executors, override file, mount-root check, registry auth - `internal/master/config` — env-var loading - `internal/master/store` — Postgres access and migrations - `internal/master/hub` — agent connections: auth, per-connection writer, routing, job reconcile on hello - `internal/master/jobs` — decides whether a service may be updated and starts a job on the right agent - `internal/master/web`, `webauth` — HTMX UI behind OIDC login, SSE signals - `internal/master/events` — in-process publish/subscribe for UI refresh signals - `internal/master/model` — domain types shared by the above ## Design intent (do not break without discussion) - **Single FIFO worker per agent by design** (`internal/agent/updater/runner.go`). Two `docker compose` calls against the same stack race. - **One queued or running job per service**, enforced by the unique index `update_jobs_one_active` (not by application code). - **The agent writes exactly one file**, `/compose.override.yaml`, and only if it is absent or starts with the header line. It refuses the job when any other auto-loaded override name exists. - **Every config file and the override path must be inside a read-write bind mount of the agent's own container whose source equals its destination.** Mounts are read per job (`ContainerInspect(SELF_ID)`) and checked after symlink resolution. This replaces the old `STACKS_ROOT`. - **Self-protection on the master**: a service is refused when its image repo equals the repo of `AGENT_IMAGE` or the row has the `self` flag. The agent does not re-check. - **Unknown message types are logged and ignored; malformed messages close the connection.** - **Reconcile before routable**: the hub fails a reconnecting agent's jobs it does not list in `known_jobs`, and only then accepts jobs for that connection. - **Auth**: agents by token over pinned TLS; people by OIDC. Every state-changing UI request is a POST with a CSRF token. ## Gotchas - **Image matching is case-sensitive.** The tricky case is `localhost:5000/foo:v1` where the first colon is a port, not a tag. See `internal/imageref`. - **Path safety uses `filepath.Rel` + ".." prefix check**, NOT `strings.HasPrefix`. Prevents the `/foo-evil` vs `/foo` confusion. See `internal/agent/updater/pathcheck.go`. - **Go 1.26.3** (`go.mod`). Dockerfile pins `golang:1.26-alpine`. Bumping one without the other has caused a fix commit already. - **`` C# convention from global CLAUDE.md does not apply here** — this is Go. Use idiomatic GoDoc (`// FuncName does X.`). - **Compose loads only one override file.** Of `compose.override.yml`, `compose.override.yaml`, `docker-compose.override.yml`, `docker-compose.override.yaml` only the first that exists is read. Hence the refusal described above. - **Stacks started with explicit `-f` do not load the override on a manual `up`.** The agent's own jobs always pass it explicitly. - **Override entries are never pruned.** A service deleted from the stack file keeps its `image:` line in `compose.override.yaml`. - **There is no `STACKS_ROOT`.** Stack directories must be mounted read-write at the host path (`/path:/path`), and `SELF_ID` must resolve to the agent's own container. On Docker Desktop/OrbStack bind sources are translated, so Compose jobs fail there. - **`job.start` carries no paths.** The agent reads working dir and config files from its own Docker daemon at execution time. - **`protocol.Service.ConfigFiles` is the raw comma-joined label string**, so `Service` stays comparable with `==` (`inventory.Diff` depends on it). - **Swarm "succeeded" means the daemon accepted the new spec**, not that tasks converged. - **Swarm updates need manager-node API access** for the agent doing the update. - **The image's default entrypoint is `updater-agent`.** The master overrides it with `updater-master`. There is no `POST /update` until phase 3. - **Job output is capped at `protocol.MaxJobOutput` (128 KiB, tail).** NUL bytes are stripped by the hub because Postgres text rejects them. ## References - Master/agent spec: `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-10-12-master-agent-design.md` (authoritative) - Phase 1 plan: `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-10-12-master-agent-phase-1-inventory.md` - Phase 2 plan: `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-10-12-master-agent-phase-2-jobs.md` - Original single-instance design (historical, its webhook is gone until phase 3): `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-22-package-updater-design.md` - Consumer-side CI integration: `gitea-action/` (calls `POST /update`, which no longer exists until phase 3) ## Conventions - Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, `ci:`, `build:`, `chore:`). - One package = one responsibility; interfaces defined at consumer site (`jobs.Store`, `jobs.Hub`, `conn.Jobs`, `hub.Store`) for testability. - Table-driven tests with `stretchr/testify`. No mocks beyond hand-written fakes.
