fix: bound desktop runtime health checks by pedronauck · Pull Request #414 · compozy/compozy

pedronauck · 2026-08-16T06:48:44Z

Fixes #413.

Summary

This removes the request/reload feedback loop that made the macOS Desktop unusable during long-running sessions with a large internal session catalog.

moves the Desktop's two-second liveness probe from the full /api/status aggregate to a new bounded GET /api/status/identity surface over HTTP and UDS
stops memory-extractor, auto-title, and dream sessions from publishing wake events to the public session catalog
resolves built-in background agents, including dreaming-curator, through effective workspace configuration instead of treating them as missing workspace-authored agents
publishes the identity contract through OpenAPI, generated TypeScript types, daemon operations docs, and the official Compozy skill

Root cause

The incident combined three amplifiers:

The native health monitor fetched the complete runtime snapshot every two seconds. That snapshot aggregates sessions, observer health, logs, providers, memory, tasks, skills, automation, network, and configuration. When it crossed the Desktop's two-second deadline, health failures caused the shell to replace the main WebView; the replacement immediately started another request burst.
Daemon-owned background sessions were excluded from public session lists but still emitted public catalog wake events. Every internal memory/title/dream lifecycle could therefore invalidate and refetch the visible catalog even though the result could not contain that session.
Observer resolution loaded built-in dreaming-curator as though it had to exist in the workspace agent catalog. Session events repeatedly paid for the failed lookup and emitted thousands of warnings.

The one extractor JSON decode failure in the incident did not form a retry loop, so this change does not add speculative retry behavior.

Implementation

GET /api/status/identity returns only the status schema version and the daemon process/listener identity needed for Desktop attachment: PID, start time, HTTP host/port, operator home, and version. The handler does not call the observer or session manager. The Desktop also caps this response at 8 KiB.

The complete /api/status contract remains unchanged for operators, the Web UI, CLI diagnostics, and support tooling. Public catalog visibility now has one canonical predicate used by both list filtering and event publication. Built-in agent lookup happens after effective workspace configuration is loaded, so workspace permission overlays still apply.

Regression coverage

real TCP Rust test asserts the Desktop sends GET /api/status/identity HTTP/1.1
HTTP handler test asserts the identity response has only schema_version and daemon and makes zero observer/session aggregation calls
HTTP and UDS route-contract tests cover the new public surface
session catalog broadcaster test proves memory-extractor, auto-title, and dream sessions cannot wake the public catalog
observer resolver test proves dreaming-curator resolves with the workspace's effective permission mode while missing custom agents remain errors

QA

An isolated targeted lab used its own COMPOZY_HOME, HTTP port, and UDS socket.

500 HTTP and 500 UDS identity reads: 1,000/1,000 status 200, identical 214-byte payloads
worst identity latency: 2.783 ms HTTP, 0.844 ms UDS
10 complete status reads during the identity burst: 10/10 status 200, worst 11.313 ms
full HTTP, UDS, and CLI status remained consistent on daemon PID, listener, and ordered global/memory schema streams
teardown: clean: true, zero surviving processes
QA audit: PASS, zero blockers and zero warnings

The targeted run used the source-built Desktop probe and daemon rather than a packaged macOS WebView soak. It proves the bounded public transport and no-reload trigger path; it does not claim a new 90-minute WebContent heap measurement.

Verification

make desktop-lint
make desktop-test — 145 library tests plus Desktop integration suites passed
make gate-full — PASS, fingerprint bda8e2fe9d6c583f979570a74ac0daab417319f2
- Bun lint/typecheck/test and Web build passed
- Go lint reported 0 issues
- 22,539 Go tests passed; 1 helper-process test intentionally skipped
- Go build and package-boundary checks passed

Compozy Impact Audit

Native tools: no compozy__* IDs, descriptors, schemas, digests, risk flags, or capability gates changed; the existing status and doctor tools keep the full diagnostic contract.
Extensibility and hooks: no extension, hook, MCP resource, registry, bridge SDK, or configuration key changed. The new read-only HTTP/UDS identity surface is documented; no config.toml or settings lifecycle change is required.
Workspace data isolation: runtime identity is daemon-global and carries no workspace/session/agent data. Public catalog events retain their existing workspace_id for visible sessions; daemon-owned sessions now publish no public wake event, so no cross-workspace path was added.
Official Compozy skill: skills/compozy/references/runtime-operations.md now distinguishes bounded liveness identity from complete status/doctor diagnostics.
Web/Docs: generated OpenAPI TypeScript declarations and daemon operations docs are updated. Web status polling remains on the complete shared status query; no Web route or component behavior changed.

Walkthrough

The change adds a bounded runtime identity endpoint over HTTP and UDS, updates desktop probing, resolves built-in agents from workspace scope, and filters daemon-owned sessions from public catalog events.

Changes

Runtime identity transport

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Identity contract and handler `internal/api/contract/runtime_identity.go`, `internal/api/core/runtime_identity.go`	Adds runtime identity payloads and returns bounded daemon metadata with HTTP 200.
Transport routes and desktop probing `internal/api/spec/runtime_status.go`, `internal/api/httpapi/routes.go`, `internal/api/udsapi/routes.go`, `desktop/src-tauri/src/runtime/probe.rs`	Registers `GET /api/status/identity` for HTTP and UDS transports. The desktop probe requests the endpoint and limits successful response bodies to 8 KiB.
Identity endpoint validation `internal/api/httpapi/handlers_test.go`, `internal/api/udsapi/handlers_test.go`, `desktop/src-tauri/src/runtime/probe.rs`	Validates route registration, response fields, handler independence, endpoint selection, bounded transport responses, and beta.18 compatibility cases.

Built-in agent resolution

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Workspace built-in agent lookup `internal/observe/agent_resolution.go`, `internal/observe/helpers_test.go`	Returns matching built-in agents before workspace lookup and verifies workspace permission resolution for Dreaming Curator.

Public session catalog filtering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Public catalog eligibility `internal/session/catalog_page.go`, `internal/session/session_catalog_stream.go`	Centralizes public-session eligibility and suppresses events for non-public session information.
Daemon-owned event suppression `internal/session/session_stream_broadcast_test.go`	Verifies that daemon-owned session types do not emit public catalog wake events.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes
