Pin every job to gitea.dcglab.co.uk/steve/ci-runner-go:2026-05-08
so Go, Node, and Docker tooling are already installed when the
job starts. Drops three actions/setup-go invocations from ci.yml
(redundant — Go is on PATH) and inherits Buildx + Compose v2 in
e2e.yml and release.yml without per-job apt-installs.
Recipe lives in steve/ci. Bump the date pin in lockstep across
the three workflows when picking up a fresher image (e.g. when
the Go floor moves).
Without --profile test, `docker compose build` skips the
playwright service (profiles: [test]) and the image is built
on-demand by `compose run` instead. Across CI runs the Gitea
runner caches the resulting tag, so a Dockerfile FROM bump
(v1.50.0 → v1.59.1) is masked by the cached image — the
container ends up with old browser binaries and Playwright's
own version-mismatch check fails the suite. Pull base images
on every build so the FROM tag wins.
`@playwright/test` was loose-pinned to ^1.50.0; npm resolved it
to 1.59.1 inside the runner image, which only ships browser
binaries for 1.50.0. Pin both the package and the docker image
to v1.59.1 so deps and binaries stay aligned.
Gitea's act-style runners execute workflow steps inside a runner
container, so compose's host port-publish (127.0.0.1:8080:8080) is
not reachable from the steps. PR #23's e2e job timed out waiting
for the server even though the container was up and listening.
Move both the health probe and the Playwright run onto rmnet so
they address the server as http://server:8080:
* health probe: docker run --rm --network e2e_rmnet curlimages/curl
* Playwright: new mcr.microsoft.com/playwright-based image, added
as a profile-gated `playwright` service in compose.e2e.yml,
invoked via `docker compose run --rm playwright`. Drops the
setup-node + npm install runner steps.
P5-01 — Documentation site under docs/book/ rendered with mdBook
(downloaded via Makefile, same static-binary pattern as Tailwind).
Structured chapters: getting started, concepts, operations,
security, reference. `make docs` / `make docs-watch`. Generated
output gitignored.
P5-02 — CONTRIBUTING.md rewritten from placeholder to a full
guide. CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md adapted from Contributor Covenant for a
single-maintainer project. .gitea/issue_template/{bug,feature}.md
and PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md.
P5-04 — Six README screenshots captured live from a fresh server
bootstrap (login, empty dashboard, add-host, alerts, settings,
audit log). README rewritten to centre the screenshot grid and
link out to the docs site.
P5-05 — SECURITY.md with disclosure policy (3-day ack, 30-day
default window), scope in/out, threat-model summary, operator
hardening checklist. Mirrored as a docs-site chapter.
P5-06 — End-to-end test harness. e2e/compose.e2e.yml brings up
server + sibling Linux agent (alpine + restic) + restic/rest-server.
Agent uses announce-and-approve so Playwright can drive the full
operator flow: bootstrap → login → accept pending → backup →
verify terminal status. Second spec scrapes /metrics to assert
the P6-04 endpoint surface. .gitea/workflows/e2e.yml runs on every
PR; local how-to in docs/e2e.md.
New internal/server/metrics package emits the legacy text/plain
exposition format directly, so we don't pull in
prometheus/client_golang. Endpoint is opt-in via RM_METRICS_TOKEN
and/or RM_METRICS_TRUSTED_CIDR; route is not mounted at all if
neither gate is set. Both gates ANDed when both configured.
Per-host gauges (online, last_backup_*, repo_size_bytes,
snapshot_count, open_alerts, repo_status), server gauges
(hosts_total/online, active_alerts by severity, build_info), and
an in-memory job-duration histogram observed from the existing
MsgJobFinished branch in the WS handler.
Docs in docs/prometheus.md (enable + scrape config + metric
reference + dashboard import). Sample dashboard at
deploy/grafana/restic-manager-dashboard.json - six panels,
Grafana schema 39, single Prometheus datasource variable.
Tests: golden render, concurrent observe, bucket boundaries in
the metrics package; auth matrix (no auth -> 404, token gate,
CIDR gate, both required) in the HTTP layer.
Spent half an evening fighting a smoke server that kept getting SIGTERM'd
mid-iteration. Root cause: backgrounded processes spawned from sandboxed
shell tool calls don't outlive the parent — even with nohup + disown.
Fix: hand the server to user-systemd as a transient unit so its lifecycle
is owned by the user's session, not by whichever bash subprocess started it.
New Make targets:
make smoke-restart build server + (re)launch as systemd --user unit
make smoke-status show unit status
make smoke-logs tail $HOME/smoke/server.log
make smoke-stop stop the unit
make smoke-deploy full rebuild + restage agent assets + restart
Documents the workflow in CLAUDE.md so the next session doesn't relitigate.
- Project total_size_bytes onto hosts.repo_size_bytes inside the
UpsertHostRepoStats transaction. The hosts row column has been
unwritten since the initial schema in 0001, so the dashboard's
Repo size cell has always rendered '—' even after backups. Now
the column updates atomically alongside the host_repo_stats row,
and FleetSummary's SUM(repo_size_bytes) becomes accurate too.
- Right-align the Alerts column header so it sits over its
right-aligned value (was floating left of column, ambiguous).
- Add text-ink-mid to the 30d trend / Alerts / Tags headers so all
column headers share the same brightness.
- Add rotated 'Size' (left) and 'Snapshots' (right) axis titles in
the chart's outer margins so the two y-axes are self-describing.
- Bump the chart viewBox from 600x220 to 640x220 and lift padL from
56 to 72 so the rotated labels and byte tick numbers don't crowd.
- Dedupe the X-axis labels for short windows (1 or 2 days collapsed
the start/mid/end indices onto each other, stacking 'May 7' three
times); the 1-day case now centres a single label, 2-day uses
start+end only.
- Pin a lone data dot to the chart centre instead of the left edge
when len(days)==1, so it sits under the centred date label.
Goldens regenerated.
Adds /hosts/{id}/jobs page listing recent jobs for the host (newest
first, capped at 100) with click-through to /jobs/{id}. Converts the
Jobs placeholder <div> to a real <a> nav link; removes the Settings
stub entirely. Also registers durationHuman template func and a
.jobs-row CSS grid to match the existing .schd-row idiom.
The dashboard's 'Last backup' column reads hosts.last_backup_at /
last_backup_status, but the WS handler only updated hosts.repo_status
on job.finished — backup terminations were silently dropped. Add a
SetHostLastBackup store method and call it from the same job.finished
switch that already handles init jobs.
Also: CLAUDE.md restage block uses /tmp/rm-smoke (the original
default) but the actual dev env runs out of $HOME/smoke. Update the
paths in the doc to match.
Smoke caught this: ProtectSystem=full mounts /usr read-only so the
agent couldn't write its own .new staging file or atomic-rename over
the running binary. Adding /usr/local/bin to ReadWritePaths is the
minimum diff that lets self-update work; the whole-dir grant is
required because os.Rename needs write on the parent directory.
- Add ?updates=behind query filter and the matching dashboardFilter
field; round-trips through encode/parse.
- Compute UpdatesBehind on the dashboard view-model (online + version
trailing the server) and surface as an amber hero tile that links
to the filtered list.
- Test exercise covering the new filter case.
- Surface UpdateAvailable + TargetVersion on the dashboard host row,
the host_chrome header, and the JSON Host shape.
- New host_update_chip partial renders an amber out-of-date pill
next to the agent-version display when the host's agent trails
the server.
- Host detail right-rail gains an admin-only Update agent button
(disabled when host is offline or already updating).
- New .update-chip and .btn-amber CSS tokens; tailwind output
refreshed.
- POST /api/fleet/update, POST /api/fleet-updates/{id}/cancel,
GET /api/fleet-updates/{id} (admin-only).
- GET /settings/fleet-update + /partial for htmx polling.
- Renders idle / running / terminal states with per-host progress.
- Tests cover happy path, derive-host-ids, conflict, cancel, get,
and RBAC.
- alert: update_failed (per-host, dedup=hostID) + fleet_update_halted
(system-scoped, host_id NULL via new RaiseOrTouchSystem helper).
- ws: UpdateWatcher tracks in-flight command.update dispatches and
reconciles them against incoming hello envelopes — success path
marks the job succeeded and auto-resolves the alert; 90s timeout
marks the job failed and raises update_failed.
- http: POST /api/hosts/{id}/update (admin-only JSON) + the HTMX
/hosts/{id}/update form variant. Pre-checks: host exists, online,
agent_version != current, no running update job. Refactored core
into Server.dispatchHostUpdate so the fleet worker can share it
without going through HTTP.
- fleetupdate: rolling worker iterating through host slots, halting
on first failure and raising fleet_update_halted. Polling-based
version-match (re-read hosts.agent_version every 1s up to 95s) —
no extra plumbing into the WS hello path. At-most-one-running is
enforced at the store layer (ErrFleetUpdateRunning).
- cmd/server: wire UpdateWatcher and FleetWorker into the main
goroutine; the worker uses a small serverDispatcher adapter that
delegates back into Server.DispatchHostUpdate.
Tests: watcher (success/timeout/mismatch/late-hello), HTTP endpoint
(happy + four pre-check branches + RBAC), worker (two-host happy,
timeout-halt, host-offline-halt, already-at-target skip, cancel
mid-run, double-Start guard).
The original plan was apt repo + Chocolatey package. The P5-03 Docker
pivot bundled matching agent binaries into the server image and
exposes them via /agent/binary, so 'update agent' now collapses to
're-fetch from your own server'. No third-party packaging or signing
infra needed. P6-01 drops to S; P6-02 keeps the dashboard reporting
+ fleet-update UX but points at the new mechanism.
The auto-issued GITHUB_TOKEN lacks write:package scope on this Gitea
instance, so the v0.9.0 tag build failed at docker login. Switch to
the user-level DEV_TOKEN secret which has the correct scope.
Smoothes the rough edges that came up exercising a live deployment.
First-run bootstrap UI: /bootstrap renders a username + password form
that uses the in-memory token directly (operator no longer copies it
out of the log); /login redirects there while bootstrap is available.
Agent reliability: failJob synthetic envelopes so command.run early
returns no longer hang the server-side job; runtime probe of restic
restore --help drives --no-ownership instead of version sniffing
(0.18.x had it removed). Server unit re-shaped: ProtectSystem=full
plus ReadWritePaths=/etc/restic-manager, no ProtectHome — restore
can now write anywhere a user might want.
Restore wizard: default target is /root/rm-restore/<job-id>/ with
clearer help text. Re-init confirm input uses .field (was .input,
which doesn't exist — text was invisible).
NS-01 host delete: store DeleteHost, admin-band /hosts/{id}/delete
with hostname-confirm danger zone, audit, FK cascade, live WS close.
NS-02 enrollment-token recovery: outstanding-tokens panel on
/hosts/new, regenerate (preserves attachments) and revoke handlers
+ audit, store-level ListOutstandingEnrollmentTokens and
DeleteEnrollmentToken.
NS-03 repo init / probe surface: migration 0020 adds
hosts.repo_status + repo_status_error; WS handler projects every
init job's outcome onto the host row (idempotent already-initialised
collapses to ready); creds-save resets status and dispatches a fresh
probe; /hosts/{id}/repo/probe retry endpoint with banner.
NS-04 dashboard live + sort + filter: query-string filter
(q/status/repo_status/tag/sort/dir), 5s htmx live poll mirroring the
alerts pattern with a localStorage live toggle, sortable column
headers, filter row + clear.
Alerts page: ack'd-by line resolves user_id ULID to username.
Compose.yaml ignored — host-specific.
The reverse proxy is assumed to live outside this project (Caddy,
nginx, Traefik, whatever the operator already runs). The reference
compose stands up only the server: image-pinned via RM_VERSION,
named volume for operator state, localhost-bound so the proxy
reaches it on loopback.
docs/reverse-proxy.md covers what the proxy must forward — the
X-Forwarded-* headers, Host, and Connection: upgrade for the agent
WebSocket and live-log streams — plus the RM_TRUSTED_PROXY CIDR
rule that gates header trust. Worked examples for Caddy, nginx
(with the websocket upgrade map + 1h proxy_read_timeout for live
logs), and Traefik.
Single public deliverable per tag: a multi-arch server image, with
cross-compiled agent binaries + install scripts + the systemd unit
baked under /opt/restic-manager/dist/. The /agent/binary and
/install/* handlers fall back from <DataDir>/... to that read-only
path so a fresh container Just Works without first-run staging;
operators can still drop a custom build into <DataDir>/ to override
per-host.
Architecture rationale: agent distribution already routes through
the running server, so the release surface mirrors that — there's
no second source of truth to keep in sync.
Workflow .gitea/workflows/release.yml triggers on v*.*.* tag-push
(fan-out :vX.Y.Z / :X.Y / :X, plus :latest once MAJOR>=1) and
workflow_dispatch (snapshot tag only). Pushes to the Gitea
container registry on this instance.
Both binaries grow main.commit + main.date ldflag targets. Makefile
and Dockerfile fill them; release workflow forwards from gitea.sha
plus a UTC timestamp.

Authelia (and many other IdPs) only put `sub` in the ID token by
default, surfacing `preferred_username`/`email`/`groups` from the
userinfo endpoint. Fetch userinfo after id_token verification and
fold its claims into the parsed claim map; the id_token claims
remain authoritative on conflict so the signed assertion still
wins.
Live sweep against https://auth.dcglab.co.uk verified all four
flows: rm-admin → admin JIT, rm-operator → operator JIT (RBAC
denies admin pages), rm-viewer → viewer JIT (RBAC denies operator
pages), rm-other → no_role_match banner with no row created.
Returning rm-admin sign-in resolves to the same row by sub.
