FROM-scratch images (commit_container output) and registry images built
for reproducibility often omit the created field entirely. Both backends
were calling die() in that case, crashing the cached-image quickstart
before any container started.
image_created_at now returns datetime | None — None when the field is
absent or unparseable, die() only on real inspect failures (non-zero
exit, malformed JSON). stale_checks in both backends skips the staleness
check when None is returned.

- config_store.py imported host_db_path from supervise_types (wrong);
it lives in paths.py, matching all other stores (audit, queue, etc.)
- test_stale_checks: two tests expected check_stale called twice
(agent + sidecar) — consolidated arch has no sidecar, so once is
correct; update assertions and remove unused Path import

pyright strict reportUnusedImport flagged BottleImages in
test_docker_launch_committed_image.py and test_macos_container_launch.py;
neither file references the type by name (they only use the returned
value's attributes).
Addresses review comments 3098, 3099, 3100 on PR #336:
- Add BottleImages(agent, sidecar) dataclass to backend/__init__.py.
Docker/macOS backends use str image refs; smolmachines uses Path
artifacts. Replaces the singular `image` variable from the canonical
pattern in comment 3100.
- Replace _image_stale_checks/skip_stale with public prelaunch_checks().
CLI now calls backend.prelaunch_checks(plan) before backend.launch(plan);
if StaleImageError is raised and the operator confirms, launch proceeds
without re-checking. Removes the while-True/skip_stale retry loop.
- Add abstract _build_or_load_images(plan) -> BottleImages to
BottleBackend. launch() calls it then passes images to _launch_impl.
Each backend implements both methods.
- Fix comment 3098 (macos-container): _build_images is removed.
build_or_load_images() has separate fresh/cached code paths — the
cached path never calls a build helper.
- Update _start_bundle (smolmachines) to accept sidecar_artifact: Path
directly. Sidecar artifact resolution moves to _sidecar_from_path(),
called by build_or_load_images alongside _agent_from_path().
- image_cache: StaleImageError exception + check_stale/check_stale_path (raise instead of warn)
- BottleBackend.launch: template method (skip_stale flag) that calls _image_stale_checks then _launch_impl
- Each backend: _image_stale_checks delegates to a stale_checks() function in its launch module; _launch_impl replaces launch override
- macos_container: adds image_created_at to util, cached-image support in _build_images, stale_checks
- cli/start.py: catches StaleImageError, prompts interactively, retries with skip_stale=True; headless mode dies on it
Add tests for the three uncovered paths introduced by the poll_ca_cert
extraction: the timeout + sleep branches in backend/util, and the
TimeoutError → GatewayError and TimeoutError → die() conversions in the
macOS and Firecracker callers.
- `_build_images()` now builds Dockerfile.gateway → Dockerfile.orchestrator
→ Dockerfile.infra in order; Dockerfile.infra starts FROM bot-bottle-gateway
so the base must exist on clean hosts.
- Publish mapping corrected from `self.port:self.port` to `self.port:DEFAULT_PORT`
(8099) — gateway_init hardcodes the orchestrator on port 8099 inside the
container, so the host-side published port must map to that fixed internal port.
- BOT_BOTTLE_ORCHESTRATOR_URL inside the container now always points to
127.0.0.1:8099, not self.port, since gateway daemons reach the orchestrator
over loopback at the fixed internal port.
- Update test_ensure_running_builds_both_images → _all_images for the new
three-step build sequence; add test_publish_maps_host_port_to_fixed_internal_port
to lock in the port-mapping fix.
Addresses the P1 findings from the didericis-codex review on PR #432.
Add three new tests:
- noop when healthy but docker inspect fails (returns True → don't churn)
- build failure raises GatewayError
- _ensure_network creates the network when it doesn't exist
Also update the integration test to use new OrchestratorService API
(infra_name/image instead of orchestrator_name/gateway_name/gateway_image).
Brings diff-coverage from 86% to 90.3% against origin/main.
- Remove unused INFRA_IMAGE import from test_orchestrator_lifecycle
- Update integration test to use new single-container OrchestratorService
API (infra_name/image replaces orchestrator_name/gateway_name/gateway_image)
- Move type: ignore to the lambda line in gateway_init SIGHUP handler
- Break two long lines in test_orchestrator_lifecycle
Collapses the two-container Docker model (gateway + orchestrator) into one
bot-bottle-infra container, matching the macOS and Firecracker backends.
- Dockerfile.infra: now a shared gateway+orchestrator base (COPY bot_bottle
from orchestrator build, no CMD override)
- Dockerfile.infra.fc: new Firecracker-specific layer (buildah/crun/netavark)
- gateway_init: adds orchestrator daemon with _OPT_IN_DAEMONS gating so it
only starts when BOT_BOTTLE_GATEWAY_DAEMONS explicitly includes it
- orchestrator/lifecycle: OrchestratorService manages one infra container;
builds orchestrator (intermediate) then infra; live source bind-mounted at
/bot-bottle-src with PYTHONPATH so the subprocess uses the checkout
- backend/consolidated_util: extracts provision_bottle + teardown_consolidated
shared across all three backends; removes duplication in docker/fc/macos
consolidated_launch modules
- firecracker/infra_vm: builds four images (orchestrator→gateway→infra→infra.fc)
- All unit tests updated and passing (1878 tests)
- PRD status: Draft → Active
Switch orchestrator_config from a generic key/text store to a typed
single-row table with a dedicated teardown_timeout_seconds REAL column.
The CHECK (id = 1) constraint enforces at most one config row.
Remove TEARDOWN_TIMEOUT_KEY constant; update OrchestratorConfigStore to
expose get/set/delete_teardown_timeout_seconds() instead of the generic
get/set/delete(key). Resolving the DB value in resolve_teardown_timeout()
no longer needs a float() conversion since the column is already REAL.
If resolve_teardown_timeout() raised after launch_consolidated()/register_agent()
returned, the teardown callback was never registered, leaving the bottle
registered with no cleanup path. Resolve the timeout into a local variable
before the registration call so any failure aborts before the bottle exists.
Add tests covering OrchestratorConfigStore, resolve_teardown_timeout priority
ordering (env > db > default), and the source-order invariant that the resolver
runs before registration in all three backends.
The None/empty-string distinction is the invariant that prevents
live_source_ips from treating a failed inspect as a legitimately
no-address container. Add TestInspectContainerNetworkIp to util tests
covering: IP found, CIDR stripping, no address yet, absent network
list, non-zero exit, malformed JSON, and unexpected JSON shape.
A failed container list or a partial per-container inspect were
previously indistinguishable from a legitimately empty/partial live
set, so reconciliation could silently unregister healthy bottles.
- enumerate_active() now raises EnumerationError instead of returning []
when `container list` fails
- Add inspect_container_network_ip() to util, which returns None on
inspect failure (vs "" for "no DHCP address yet"), so live_source_ips
can tell the two apart
- live_source_ips() raises EnumerationError on either failure mode;
register_agent() catches it and skips reconciliation, same as
OrchestratorClientError
- Update tests: rename test_empty_when_the_cli_fails to
test_raises_when_the_cli_fails, update patching to the new function,
add coverage for list failure, per-container inspect failure, and the
launch-not-blocked path
`/resolve` fail-closes on a missing/ambiguous registry row *and* on a
request whose identity token doesn't match. The message named only the
first, so a bottle that was registered correctly but sent no token read as
"not registered" and sent the reader looking for a deregistered bottle.

An unattributed bottle, an unreachable orchestrator, and an unparseable
policy all become a deny-all Config, and a deny-all is indistinguishable
from "policy loaded, host not allowed" at the decision point — both are just
"no matching route". So every one of them reported `host X is not in the
bottle's egress.routes allowlist`, which reads as a config problem and sends
the operator hunting for a route that was never missing. Diagnosing a
bricked registration cost hours for exactly this reason.
Carry the structural reason on Config and prefer it in decide(). A genuine
allowlist miss — a policy that loaded and simply lacks the host — keeps the
original wording, so the message now tells the two cases apart.

A registry row only ever left the registry two ways: an explicit
teardown_bottle (the launcher's cleanup callback) or the same-IP supersede
sweep in register(). Neither runs when the launching CLI dies hard, so the
row outlives its container.
That orphan is not inert. Source IPs are recycled by the backend's DHCP and
by_source_ip fail-closes on ambiguity, so a leftover row at a reused address
resolves no policy at all for the next bottle that lands there — and a
bottle with no policy denies every host, which surfaces to the agent as
"host X is not in the allowlist" for hosts that were never the problem.
Add reap_absent/reconcile and call it from the macOS launch path before
registering, so each launch self-heals the registry. Restores the invariant
the data plane needs: at most one active row per live address, and none for
a dead one. The second half matters as much as the first — when several rows
claim a *live* address the newest wins and the rest are swept, otherwise a
recycled address stays ambiguous, which is exactly the bricked state.
The host supplies the live set because the orchestrator runs inside the
infra container and cannot see the backend. A grace window exempts rows
younger than it, so reconciliation cannot race a bottle still coming up, and
a reconcile failure is logged rather than blocking an otherwise-fine launch.

The shared gateway's address is DHCP-assigned and changes whenever the infra
container is recreated — a source-hash bump, an image upgrade, a crash. Every
agent-facing URL embedded that address, and the proxy URL reaches the agent
as process environment at `container exec` time. A running process's environ
cannot be rewritten from outside, so a moved gateway stranded every running
bottle permanently: not degraded, unreachable, until relaunched and its agent
session thrown away.
Give the agent a stable name instead. `GATEWAY_HOSTNAME` replaces the address
in the egress proxy URL, NO_PROXY, git-http, and supervise URLs, and resolves
through the bottle's own /etc/hosts. Unlike environ that is a file, so it can
be rewritten inside a container that is already running — which is the whole
point: a gateway that returns at a new address is picked up by live bottles.
Launch writes the entry before anything execs (every agent URL names the
gateway, so it must resolve for the first connection), and re-points every
running bottle once the gateway is up, so one stranded by an earlier restart
re-attaches instead of needing a relaunch.
The write needs root and the agent runs as `node`: the host can repoint a
bottle's gateway name, the agent cannot repoint its own. Keep that asymmetry.
Apple Container 1.0 has no container-name DNS on a user network and
`container run` has no --add-host, so the entry is written by exec after
start rather than declared at run.
Does not address the other half of #443: per-bottle egress auth tokens are
held in memory by the orchestrator and are still lost across a restart, so a
re-attached bottle resolves its policy but not its injected credentials.

`container exec --env` does not override the run-time environment on Apple
Container — it appends. The launch path baked a token-less `*_PROXY` into
`container run` and relied on the exec-time, token-bearing value superseding
it, so the agent's `environ` ended up with two `HTTPS_PROXY` entries,
token-less first.
Which entry a runtime reads is then luck. Node reads the last, so Claude
bottles picked up the token and worked. Rust's `std::env::var` reads the
first, so Codex proxied with no identity token at all; `/resolve` requires a
matching (source_ip, identity_token) pair and fail-closes, so every request
from a Codex bottle was denied — its model calls, its `wss://` reconnects,
and its MCP servers alike. The registry row was correct the whole time,
which is what made this read as a registration bug.
Drop the run-time proxy vars entirely. A token-less proxy URL has no
legitimate consumer: the init process is `sleep` and everything that
egresses arrives by exec. Its only benefit was a tidy 403 for unattributed
callers, which is not worth silently dropping attribution for — and a
process that egresses before the exec-time env still fails closed, since the
agent network is host-only and the gateway is the only route off it.
Also corrects the two comments that asserted the false "exec --env wins"
invariant, so the next reader doesn't rebuild the same assumption.

_auto_select_backend gains a prompt parameter (default True). When
prompt=False the docker-fallback [i/d/q] menu is skipped and the call
dies immediately with an actionable message ("set
BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND=docker or install a VM backend"), preventing hangs
in CI, webhook dispatch, and orchestrator launches.
prepare_with_preflight passes prompt=not spec.headless so the headless
start path can never block waiting for TTY input it cannot receive.
Remove the private _read_tty_line duplicate from backend/__init__.py and
the local definition from cli/_common.py. Both now import from the
shared bot_bottle.util module.
- Remove hardcoded --backend=macos-container flag reference in
firecracker/util.py require_firecracker() error message
- Remove --backend flag from cli.py start; backend selection now
driven exclusively by BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND env var or auto-selection
- Skip unavailable backends in cli.py cleanup (fixes crash on Linux
when macos-container.prepare_cleanup calls require_container())
- Add two-tier auto-selection: VM backend first (macos-container on
macOS, firecracker on Linux+KVM); fall back to docker with a
security warning and interactive i/d/q prompt; exit if docker
also unavailable and print VM install instructions
Closes#344
The macOS infra container's init script still spawned the supervisor as
`python3 /app/gateway_init.py`. 5ad3449 moved bot_bottle from flat files
under /app into a pip-installed package, so that file no longer exists:
the supervisor never started, mitmdump never generated its CA, and the
launch failed downstream with a misleading "gateway CA not available"
error pointing at TLS rather than at the supervisor.
This is the same defect 127ba49 fixed for the firecracker backend. It
survived on macOS because CI has no Apple Container runner — the KVM
runner added in c193b04 covers firecracker, and ubuntu-latest covers
docker, but nothing exercises macos_container.
test_macos_infra asserted the substring "gateway_init.py", which the
broken path satisfied; it now asserts the module form, matching the
assertion 127ba49 already made in test_firecracker_infra_vm.
Verified end to end on the macos-container backend: image builds, CA is
generated, agent registers, and a headless bottle runs a prompt.

Review follow-ups for the infra candidate-artifact flow:
1. publish-infra would fail on the first merge to main. The rootfs version now
hashes the dropbear bytes, and build-infra sets BOT_BOTTLE_FC_DROPBEAR to the
staged dropbear — but publish-infra (ubuntu-latest) set none, so _publish_
bundle re-derived the version with a "<missing>" dropbear and rejected the
candidate as "does not match checkout". Download the same firecracker-inputs
dropbear and export BOT_BOTTLE_FC_DROPBEAR in publish-infra (and add
stage-firecracker-inputs to its needs, since it now consumes that artifact).
2. Guard stage-firecracker-inputs with the same fork-PR check as the other
KVM-runner jobs, so a fork PR can't spin the privileged runner (it only
copies a static binary, but keep the posture consistent; it gates the whole
Firecracker chain via needs).
3. ensure_artifact_gz / _publish_bundle read version.txt before checking it
exists — a bundle missing it raised a raw FileNotFoundError instead of the
intended "bundle is incomplete" die. Guard the read (kept before the gz/sha
completeness check so a wrong-version bundle still reports the version
mismatch, not "incomplete").
4. test_infra_artifact.setUp didn't isolate BOT_BOTTLE_INFRA_ARTIFACT_DIR, so
an ambient candidate dir (the coverage job exports one) would send the
registry-pull tests down the local-bundle path. Pin it off in setUp; the
candidate-path cases set it explicitly.

The coverage CI job exports BOT_BOTTLE_INFRA_BUILD=local so the integration
suite builds infra/agent images from source. But that job also runs the unit
suite, and the ambient =local leaked into test_default_pulls_artifact_without_
docker — it drove ensure_built() down the local Docker-build branch, so the
"build_image not called / artifact pulled" assertion failed (build_image
called 3 times).
Pin the var off in that test so it exercises the default pull path regardless
of the runner's ambient env (mirrors test_local_mode_builds_deps_before_infra,
which pins it on). Full unit suite verified green under BOT_BOTTLE_INFRA_BUILD
=local.

Dockerfile.gateway COPYs pyproject.toml into /src and runs pip install
/src, so it is a real input to the baked rootfs. A dependency-only change
previously reused stale artifact versions, potentially booting a rootfs
whose installed packages differed from the current checkout.
Also adds _fake_repo fixture support and a regression test so this input

- test_docker_test_helpers: read __unittest_skip__ via getattr on the

build_agent_rootfs_dir cached the built rootfs by Dockerfile content alone,
but util.inject_guest_boot then writes util._GUEST_INIT into it. So a fix to
the init — making /tmp world-writable (1777) so the agent can create scratch
dirs / git worktrees there — did NOT bust the cache: the KVM runner kept
reusing a stale agent-<dockerfilehash> rootfs built with the old init, and the
sandbox-escape README-push test kept failing at `git init /tmp/...` with
"Permission denied".
Key the cache on Dockerfile content AND the injected init (_rootfs_digest), so
an init change rebuilds. Self-busting: the new key yields a fresh cache dir, so
no manual cache clear on the runner.

The KVM CI runner now sets BOT_BOTTLE_FC_* for its isolated pool (distinct
iface prefix / orch iface / nft table / IP base), and that env leaks into the
coverage job's test process. Five netpool tests hardcoded the default names
(bbfc*, bot_bottle_fc) and so failed there with e.g. ['bbfc1'] != ['bbci1'].
Assert against netpool's env-driven config instead — slot(i).iface / the
configured prefix — so the tests check the LOGIC regardless of which pool the
host is configured for. The single-source test now compares the parsed
defaults (netpool._DEFAULTS, env-independent) for the module constants, since
IFACE_PREFIX/NFT_TABLE legitimately layer an env override on top.

The infra VM is a per-host singleton that outlives short-lived launchers, so
`ensure_running` adopts it when its control plane is healthy. But it adopted
ANY healthy VM regardless of the code that built it — so after an infra-code
change the old VM kept being adopted and the new code never booted. The only
way to dislodge it was an out-of-band `kill`, which then raced whatever
launched next. On CI this meant every infra change needed a manual VM kill.
Make adoption version-aware:
* boot records the infra-artifact version it booted from in a `booted-version`
marker beside the singleton; `stop` clears it.
* `ensure_running` adopts only when the marker matches the current version
(`_adoptable`); a missing/mismatched marker falls through to stop + reboot.
So a stale VM is replaced automatically on the next launch — no manual kill,
and it's concurrency-safe (the reboot happens under the singleton flock).
Also harden teardown: the PID file drifts after crashes / out-of-band kills,
so `stop` now also reaps any orphaned firecracker still bound to the infra
config path (scoped to that path, so interactive-pool VMs are untouched) —
otherwise a survivor holds the orchestrator TAP and the fresh boot dies with
"tap … Resource busy".

The rootless agent rootfs build can land /tmp as 0755/root-owned, so the
agent (uid 1000 node) can't create scratch dirs there. The sandbox-escape
suite's README-push test does `cd /tmp && git init sandbox-escape-repo` and
died with "cannot mkdir sandbox-escape-repo: Permission denied" — before the
git-gate gitleaks hook could run — so the test read it as a missing hook.
On docker the agent inherits node:22-slim's 1777 /tmp, which is why only the
Firecracker path was affected (and only now that the suite runs end-to-end).
Set /tmp to 1777 in the guest PID-1 init, so every agent VM boots with a
usable /tmp regardless of rootfs perm drift.
Also update the infra-init unit test to assert the gateway launches via the
`bot_bottle.gateway_init` module (matching the prior fix), not a file path.

Two diff-coverage gaps on the ci-kvm-runner branch:
1. bot_bottle/backend/docker/setup.py: the try/except TimeoutExpired
block added in a prior commit had no tests reaching the subprocess
path. Add two tests to TestDockerSetupStatus: one for the success
path (subprocess returns 0) and one for the TimeoutExpired fallback.
2. bot_bottle/db_store.py: the _connection() context manager change in
is_migrated() was never exercised by unit tests (all callers mock
is_migrated() directly). Add test_db_store.py covering the absent-DB,
missing-schema-table, migrated, and behind-schema cases.
On a self-hosted KVM runner the process has a real controlling terminal
so name_color_modal successfully opens /dev/tty and enters a curses
loop waiting for keyboard input, hanging the test indefinitely.
Docker containers (ubuntu-latest runners) don't have a real /dev/tty,
causing an OSError that triggers the existing fallback — this is why
the hang was invisible in ubuntu-latest CI.
Also add timeout=5 to _daemon_reachable() to match the same defensive
fix already applied to docker_available() in tests/_docker.py.

Closes#412.
The supervise MCP server blocked the agent's tool call polling for the
operator's decision, and on timeout returned `status: pending` with no
proposal id and no way to poll a specific proposal — so the only way to
learn a late decision was to re-propose (a duplicate).
- `handle_tools_call` pending timeout now returns the `proposal_id` and
points the agent at `check-proposal`.
- New `check-proposal` MCP tool: non-blocking status lookup by proposal id
(pending | approved | modified | rejected | unknown). Reuses the queue's
FileNotFoundError semantics; archives a decided proposal exactly like the
synchronous path, so a pending proposal stays visible to the operator
until it's both decided and polled.
- `TOOL_CHECK_PROPOSAL` constant, re-exported from supervise; kept out of
TOOLS since it never becomes a Proposal.tool.
Enforcement is unchanged — the tools only propose policy; the egress proxy
and git-gate still enforce — so returning early opens no hole. Follow-ups
(git-gate reject-requeue, backpressure, notifications, web console) are in
the PRD.

The pre-receive hook scanned existing-branch updates with the delta range
$old..$new. On a rebase / non-fast-forward force-push onto an advanced main,
$old is no longer an ancestor of $new, so $old..$new expands to all of main's
new history — including the deliberate sandbox-escape gitleaks fixtures — and
the push is rejected on commits that belong to main, not the branch.
Unify the range on `$new --not --all` for every non-delete push (this is the
deferred open question from PRD 0028, which already applied it to new refs
for #106). It scans only the commits the push introduces and is
security-equivalent: the bare repo's refs come only from trusted upstream
mirror-fetch and gitleaks-gated pushes, so an excluded commit is
already-upstream or already-scanned. It is also more correct for
non-fast-forward pushes, where $old..$new can skip commits off the direct path.
