Revocable merges (a contradiction-driven undo of identity.merged) ship
in the clusterer work; this reserves the topic up-front so identity.>
subscribers receive it day one without a re-subscribe.
The clusterer worker's ClusterResult fan-out now publishes on
identity.unmerged when populated. The skeleton clusterer never
populates it; the revocable-merge commit will.
Wiki update lives in wiki-checkout/Service-Bus.md (separate repo).
Fourth of the five-step identity-resolution substrate. Constants and
builder ship now; no publishers exist yet — they land with the
clusterer worker. Subscribers (webhook worker, dashboard SSE relay)
can register against identity.> from day one.
* decnet/bus/topics.py — IDENTITY root + IDENTITY_FORMED /
IDENTITY_OBSERVATION_LINKED / IDENTITY_MERGED leaves; identity()
builder mirroring the attacker() / system() helpers. Module
docstring topic-tree updated.
* tests/bus/test_topics.py — assert builder produces the expected
three topic strings + rejects empty event_type.
Wiki Service-Bus.md and a new Identity-Resolution.md page land in the
companion wiki-checkout commit.
run_intel_loop fans out across configured providers per IP, writes the
aggregate row, and publishes attacker.intel.enriched. Mirrors the
correlation/reuse_worker.py wake-on pattern: subscribes to
attacker.observed and attacker.scored for sub-second latency, falls back
to a 60s poll when the bus is unavailable. Heartbeat + control-listener
wired so the workers panel sees it like every other supervised worker.
Aggregate verdict picks the strongest provider tier (malicious >
suspicious > benign > unknown). Provider-level errors land in
IntelResult.error and are logged without poisoning the row — partial
success is the expected case for free-tier providers under their daily
caps.
Concrete provider impls land in follow-up commits; the worker is fully
exercised here against fake providers so the framing is locked in.
Lays the storage and bus substrate for the "credential reuse patterns"
task in DEVELOPMENT.md and scaffolds decnet/vectorstore/ as the future
substrate for statistical attacker re-identification over behavioral
fingerprints. No correlator, profiler, API, or dashboard wiring in
this commit — see TODO.md for the handoff.
Schema:
- Credential.attacker_uuid (nullable FK to attackers.uuid),
backfilled by the profiler post-write to avoid coupling the
capture path to the profiler's ordering.
- CredentialReuse table — UUID PK, JSON list columns for the
accumulating attacker_uuids/ips/deckies/services, target_count
(the discriminative scalar), confidence reserved for a future
fuzzy-credential pass.
Repo:
- upsert_credential_reuse / list_credential_reuses /
get_credential_reuse_by_id / update_credential_attacker_uuid.
- Renamed pre-existing get_credential_reuse(secret_sha256) to
get_credential_attempts_for_secret(secret_sha256) — the new
findings table needs the cleaner name.
Bus topics:
- credential.captured (one per Credential upsert)
- credential.reuse.detected (correlator-emitted on insert/grow)
Vectorstore subpackage (decnet/vectorstore/, flat layout mirroring
decnet/bus/):
- BaseVectorStore ABC keyed by (kind, id) — kind discriminator
means new feature families are additive, no schema migration.
- FakeVectorStore (in-memory L2 KNN), NullVectorStore (no-op for
DECNET_VECTORSTORE_ENABLED=false), SqliteVecVectorStore (lazy
sqlite_vec extension load, one vec0 virtual table per kind).
- get_vectorstore() env-driven dispatch with graceful fallback
to FakeVectorStore when the sqlite-vec extension isn't on the
host, so workers don't crash on a missing optional dep.
Tests: 26 new (11 cred-reuse repo, 15 vectorstore). Existing
credentials and base-repo tests updated for the rename. Total: 34
passing on the touched files.
Introduces the webhook egress foundation — a new WebhookSubscription
table, admin-gated CRUD under /api/v1/webhooks, and the shared
delivery client that both the test-ping route and the upcoming worker
will use. No worker yet; this commit is API + model + client only.
Simple-mode enum (AttackerDetail / DeckyStatus / SystemStatus) expands
to bus-topic patterns at the router layer; storage is always the raw
pattern list. Advanced mode lets admins supply raw NATS-style patterns
directly. Filter-at-subscribe: the worker (next commit) will subscribe
to the union of patterns across enabled subscriptions.
Delivery client handles HMAC-SHA256 signing (X-DECNET-Signature),
retry on 429/5xx/network errors with jittered backoff, no-retry on
4xx. Secrets never leave the server on GET/LIST — only the create
response carries the secret for copy-out.
CRUD routes publish WEBHOOK_SUBSCRIPTIONS_CHANGED on the bus after
every mutation so the (future) worker can hot-reload.
Opens DEBT-037 for the deferred items (circuit breaker, dead-letter,
batch delivery, payload templates, secret-at-rest).
Worker bus instances (collector, ingester) close their private buses
in finally blocks on shutdown, but stream threads holding closure
references kept calling publish after close — one `RuntimeError:
publish on closed bus` per stream line, caught by publish_safely
and logged per call, flooding server logs.
Changes:
- `UnixSocketBus.publish()` now drops post-close calls. First drop
WARNs loudly (bus is critical infra — silent drops would hide real
problems); subsequent drops on the same instance log at DEBUG to
prevent the flood. Sticky `_closed_publish_warned` flag, reset
naturally per new bus instance.
- `make_thread_safe_publisher` short-circuits on a closed bus before
marshalling a coroutine onto the loop. Avoids the wasted scheduling
work in the hot shutdown path.
Degradation is safe: callers go through `publish_safely`, which
already treats exceptions as 'dropped notification, DB is source of
truth.' We just stop manufacturing the exception in the first place
for a known-benign condition.
A startup race between `decnet bus` being ready and the API's lifespan
hitting `get_app_bus()` at api.py:135 would set `_tried = True`
permanently, poisoning the singleton for the rest of the process: the
dashboard shows BUS OFFLINE, topology SSE falls into the bus-is-None
snapshot-only branch, mutator publish calls no-op. Only an API
restart recovered.
Replaces the one-shot veto with a time-gated retry keyed on a
`_last_failure_ts` monotonic timestamp plus a 2 s backoff. Publishers
on the hot path still pay at most one connect attempt every 2 s when
the bus is down, but the singleton auto-recovers within 5 s (one
dashboard poll) once the bus comes up.
The asyncio lock still serialises concurrent callers so the bus server
doesn't get stampeded with parallel connect attempts on startup.
Ships the backend half of Config → Workers:
* Worker registry aggregates `system.*.health` + `system.bus.health`
heartbeats into a last-seen dict; OK / STALE / UNKNOWN tiers drop
out of a 90s window (3× the 30s heartbeat interval).
* `GET /api/v1/workers` returns the snapshot plus `bus_connected`
(so the UI can explain "all UNKNOWN" when the bus socket is down)
and a per-row `installed` flag populated from
`systemctl list-unit-files decnet-*.service` (cached 30s).
* `POST /api/v1/workers/{name}/stop` publishes a stop intent on
`system.<name>.control`; workers listen via the shared control
listener in `bus/publish.py`.
* Heartbeat + control listener wired into collector / profiler /
sniffer / prober / mutator worker loops. API self-heartbeats too
so the panel always has one ground-truth row.
* Topic helper `system_control(name)` + tests covering builder
validation, control listener shutdown path, and the API surface
(auth gating, bus-connected field, unknown-name 404).
Adds `StartFailure` / `StartAllResponse` models in anticipation of
the upcoming start endpoints (DEBT-034).
First step toward making mutation events first-class nodes in the
correlation graph. Today the graph silently reflects post-mutation
state with no marker of the transition; this helper lands the
emitter the mutator and deploy paths will call.
- decnet/mutator/events.py: emit_decky_mutated(bus, *, decky,
old_services, new_services, trigger, actor=None, log_path=None)
writes an RFC 5424 line (service=mutator, hostname=<decky>,
MSGID=decky_mutated, SD params for old/new services + trigger +
optional actor) to DECNET_INGEST_LOG_FILE, then fire-and-forget
publishes on decky.<id>.mutation. Either side failing is soft —
the other path still completes.
- MutationTrigger Literal covers creation, retirement, scheduled,
operator, behavioral, healer, federation. Reserved values for v2/v3
(behavioral + federation) stay nullable so the schema is stable.
- decnet/bus/topics.py: DECKY_MUTATION constant + decky_mutation(id)
builder. Distinct from DECKY_STATE ("current shape") because a
mutation is a transition event, not a steady-state snapshot.
- Empty-set symmetry: creation emits old_services=[], retirement
emits new_services=[]. Every decky lifecycle becomes a well-formed
fold sequence on the correlator side.
- 4 new tests: FakeBus + correlator parser round-trip; creation and
retirement empty-set cases; bus=None still writes syslog;
unwritable log path doesn't block bus publish. 95 tests green
across test_mutator + tests/bus.
The flat-fleet mutator was DB-poll-only and noisy — it logged
"no active deployment found" every 10s on idle hosts and ran
mutate_all at a fixed tick regardless of when the next decky
was due.
- mutate_all returns seconds-until-next-due; watch loop sleeps
min(next_due, poll_interval_secs) with a 1s floor.
- "No deployment" is now idle, not an error: edge-triggered log
on present<->absent transition instead of every tick.
- mutate_decky publishes decky.<name>.state on successful compose
so UIs react in real time.
- New decky.*.mutate_request subscription lets API/CLI/UI force
an immediate mutation of a specific decky without waiting for
its interval; target name feeds mutate_all(only={...}).
- system.mutator.health heartbeat via run_health_heartbeat helper,
bringing the mutator in line with DEBT-031 workers.
Tests: next_due return, only= filter, decky.<name>.state publish
on success, no publish on compose failure. Full mutator+topology-
mutator+bus suite (109) green.
All three workers now share a run_health_heartbeat helper in
decnet.bus.publish. Each publishes system.<worker>.health on a 30s tick
with {worker, ts} plus optional per-worker extras. Subscribers can
watch system.*.health to see every DECNET worker on a host at once.
- agent: heartbeat runs inside the FastAPI lifespan alongside the
existing master-facing heartbeat; bus-disabled path is a no-op.
- forwarder: heartbeat task spawned at run_forwarder entry, cancelled
in the finally block so a crashed master loop never leaks the task.
- updater: new FastAPI lifespan hosts the heartbeat.
Heartbeat helper swallows extra() failures and is cancellation-safe so
lifespan teardown never hangs on it.
Each successful JARM / HASSH / TCPfp probe fans out an
attacker.fingerprinted event; the probe family goes in event.type so a
single subscription covers all three. Payload carries the attacker IP,
port, and probe-specific hash — enough for the MazeNET live map to
render fingerprint info on observed attackers.
Lifts the thread-safe publisher helper out of the sniffer worker into
decnet/bus/publish.py so the prober (and every future worker with a
to_thread hot path) can reuse it without copy-pasting the
run_coroutine_threadsafe dance. Sniffer rewires onto the shared helper
in passing.
Adds ATTACKER_FINGERPRINTED as a new leaf — distinct from
ATTACKER_OBSERVED (correlator's first-sight signal) because an active
probe result is additional evidence about an already-observed attacker.
Note: the plan's decky.{id}.state realism-probe publish path is
deferred — the current prober fingerprints attackers, not decky
realism. Will revisit when realism probes exist.
Shared publish_safely helper at decnet/bus/publish.py so the nine
workers about to be wired into the bus don't each copy-paste the
"never raise back at the caller" contract. Mutator drops its private
copy and imports the canonical one.
topics.py gains the attacker.* hierarchy (observed, scored,
session.started, session.ended) and a system_health(worker) builder
for per-worker health heartbeats — both prerequisites for the worker
rollout under DEBT-031.
Wire the mutator and web API into the service bus so live-topology
edits flow sub-second from enqueue to UI:
- Mutator publishes every state transition on the bus (mutation.applying
/applied/failed + topology.status). Fire-and-forget; DB stays source
of truth.
- Mutator watch loop subscribes to topology.*.mutation.enqueued and
wakes early via asyncio.Event — the 10s poll becomes a fallback
heartbeat, not the primary dispatch trigger.
- POST /topologies/{id}/mutations publishes mutation.enqueued after
the DB write succeeds.
- New GET /topologies/{id}/events SSE route: snapshot on connect
(status + in-flight mutations), live forwards topology.{id}.>
bus events, 15s keepalive. ?token= auth mirrors /stream.
- New decnet/bus/app.py — process-wide lazy bus singleton for the
API, closed cleanly on lifespan shutdown.
Land the `decnet bus` worker and `get_bus()` factory. Transport is a
host-local UNIX-domain socket (0660, group=decnet); authz is the file
mode. Wire framing is a tiny verb-line + 4-byte-BE length + orjson body.
NATS-style wildcard topics (`*`, `>`). At-most-once, fire-and-forget —
DB stays the source of truth. `FakeBus` / `NullBus` for tests and the
disabled path. Cross-host federation is deferred to a future
`--bridge-tcp` mode; DEBT-030 is master-only and unblocked.
