The machine table said who owns a host, which team it belongs to and when it
was last seen, and nothing about how to reach it. Anything standing in front of
a host and authenticating browsers on its behalf could therefore authorise a
request perfectly and then have nowhere to send it.
Reported, never assigned. A host holds the secret half of this identity and is
the only thing that can know the public half first, so it rides on the beat it
already sends as itself. Omitting the field leaves the stored value alone --
an agent that does not mention where it is has not moved, and an absent field
must never read as "nowhere", which would take every host shipped before this
field off the map on its next beat.
Nullable, because "has never reported one" is a real state that every host
registered before today is in. Unique, because an endpoint id belongs to one
host: two rows claiming the same one would send a request addressed to one
machine to another machine's agent, which is the one mistake here that the
authorisation in front of it cannot catch.
Moving the issuer's state into Postgres removed the last thing that tied
either app to one hosting provider. What was left was a deployment tool
describing resources that no longer existed — so this replaces it with
`wrangler`, which is what actually deploys a Worker, and adds a second way
to run each app that involves no provider at all.
Each app now has a `wrangler.jsonc` with an environment per stage, and a
`Dockerfile` beside it. The handler is the same one in both cases; what
differs is only where its settings come from. Two of them gained a second
spelling so that nothing has to branch on the runtime: Postgres arrives as
a pooled binding or as `DATABASE_URL`, and the route to the issuer is a
service binding or `AUTH_INTERNAL_URL`.
That last one is new, and it is a split the binding was already making
without saying so. `AUTH_ISSUER_URL` has to be the issuer's public name,
because it is compared literally against every token's `iss` claim — but
the public name is often not routable from inside a deployment. So the
name and the route are two settings now rather than one that cannot be
both.
DNS moves out of code and into `docs/dns.md`, which lists every hostname
and what it is for. Six records that change roughly never did not need a
tool, and the table outlives whatever is answering the names — which is
the point, since some of them will stop being Workers. The sandbox
hostnames are hyphenated rather than nested for the same reason: a
certificate covering `*.nestri.io` covers one label and not two, so
`api-sandbox.nestri.io` can become an ordinary origin later without a
certificate having to be ordered for it first.
Also drops `EMAIL_DEV_LOG` from committed configuration into `.dev.vars`,
which `wrangler deploy` cannot upload. Printing a live sign-in code to a
log should not be one forgotten override away from production.
Second half of G1's "neslet registers against api.nestri.io and heartbeats".
Registration already worked; there was no heartbeat endpoint at all — grep for
it across apps/api and packages/core returned nothing, and neslet's own
main.rs says the same from its side.
POST /machine/heartbeat, machine credentials only. Two decisions worth stating
because neither is obvious from the diff:
**It returns the interval.** The auth middleware already touches lastSeen on
every authenticated machine request, so an endpoint that only did that would
add an endpoint and no capability. What a host cannot know on its own is how
often the control plane wants to hear from it, so the response carries the
cadence. A fleet whose interval can only change by shipping a new agent is a
fleet whose interval never changes.
**It takes no body.** neslet has a HostSummary ready to send, and week 2 owns
box state reporting. Accepting fields nothing acts on yet would mean a wire
shape we would have to keep, chosen before the thing that consumes it exists.
Online-ness is derived from lastSeen rather than stored: a host that stops
beating goes offline through the passage of time, which is the one mechanism
that cannot itself fail. Three missed beats, not one — a single missed beat is
a lost packet, and treating that as offline would make placement flap.
Also: the machine actor's teamID stops being optional. It was `...(teamId ? {}
: {})` in the middleware, a branch for a state that cannot exist now that
machine.team_id is notNull.
134 tests, 0 fail.
