The original script hardcoded `MODEL_SLUG="openai/gpt-4o"` (slash) and
claimed "non-hermes runtimes ignore the prefix" — wrong for langgraph,
which delegates model resolution to langchain's `init_chat_model`. That
function requires `<provider>:<model>` (colon) and treats slash-form as
OpenRouter routing, falling through without auth even when
OPENAI_API_KEY is set.
Surfaced 2026-05-03 after the a2a-sdk v1 contract bugs (PR
#2558+#2563+#2567) cleared the masking layers — synth-E2E firing
2026-05-03T12:14 returned a properly-shaped task with state=failed +
"Could not resolve authentication method" inside the agent body.
continuous-synth-e2e.yml defaults E2E_RUNTIME=langgraph for the cron,
so every firing hit this. Hermes still gets the slash-form it
needs; claude-code uses the entry-id pattern.
Adds E2E_MODEL_SLUG override for operator-dispatched runs that want
to pin a specific slug.

The workflow_dispatch input default and the workflow_run env fallback
both pointed at 'hongmingwang', which doesn't match any current prod
tenant (slugs are: hongming, chloe-dong, reno-stars). CP silently
skipped the missing canary and put every tenant in batch-1 in parallel,
defeating the canary-first soak gate that exists to catch image-boot
regressions before they hit the whole fleet.
Concrete example from today's c0838d6 redeploy at 11:53Z (run 25278434388):
the dispatched body was `{"target_tag":"staging-c0838d6","canary_slug":"hongmingwang",...}`
and the CP response showed all 3 tenants in `"phase":"batch-1"` — no
soak, no canary. The deploy happened to be safe, but a broken image
would have hit hongming + chloe-dong + reno-stars simultaneously.
Fixed in three places: the runtime ordering comment, the
workflow_dispatch default, and the env fallback used by the
workflow_run trigger. Comment documents the rationale so the next
slug rename doesn't silently regress this again.

The synth-E2E (#2342) provisions a langgraph tenant whose default
model `openai:gpt-4.1-mini` requires OPENAI_API_KEY for the first LLM
call. Sibling workflows already wire this:
- e2e-staging-saas.yml:89
- canary-staging.yml:63
continuous-synth-e2e.yml just forgot. Result: tenant boots, accepts
a2a messages, then returns:
Agent error: "Could not resolve authentication method. Expected
either api_key or auth_token to be set."
This was masked since 2026-04-29 (workflow creation) by a2a-sdk v0→v1
contract violations — PR #2558 (Task-enqueue) and #2563
(TaskUpdater.complete/failed terminal events) cleared those, exposing
the underlying auth gap on the synth-E2E firing at 11:39 UTC today.
The script tests/e2e/test_staging_full_saas.sh:325 already reads
E2E_OPENAI_API_KEY and persists it as a workspace_secret on tenant
create — only the workflow wiring was missing.

The redeploy-tenants-on-staging soft-warn filter and the
sweep-stale-e2e-orgs janitor both hardcoded `^e2e-` to identify
ephemeral test tenants. Runtime-test harness fixtures (RFC #2251)
mint slugs prefixed with `rt-e2e-`, which neither matcher recognized.
Concrete impact observed today:
- Two `rt-e2e-v{5,6}-*` tenants left orphaned 8h on staging
(sweep-stale-e2e-orgs ignored them).
- On the next staging redeploy their phantom EC2s returned
`InvalidInstanceId: Instances not in a valid state for account`
from SSM SendCommand → CP returned HTTP 500 + ok=false.
- The redeploy soft-warn missed them too, so the workflow went
red, which broke the auto-promote-staging chain feeding the
canvas warm-paper rollout to prod.
Fix: switch both matchers to recognize the alternation
`^(e2e-|rt-e2e-)`. Long-lived prefixes (demo-prep, dryrun-*, dryrun2-*)
remain non-ephemeral and continue to hard-fail. Comment documents
the source-of-truth list and the cross-file invariant.

PR #2555 (Tailwind v4 + warm-paper) migrated all canvas chrome (toolbar,
side panel, modal layer) to semantic tokens, but missed the React Flow
viewport's `colorMode="dark"` literal — and two paired hardcoded dark
literals on the Background dot color and MiniMap mask. Net result on
prod: the user picked light mode, the toolbar flipped warm-paper, but
the canvas backplate, edges, dots, controls, and minimap stayed black —
visibly half-themed.
Three coordinated fixes inside the canvas viewport:
- ReactFlow `colorMode={resolvedTheme}` so the library's own dark/light
styles flip with the user's choice.
- Background dot color picks the line-soft tone in light mode (zinc-800
was invisible-on-cream).
- MiniMap maskColor warm-tints the off-viewport dim so the unselected
region doesn't render as a hard black bar over warm-paper.
Verification:
- `npx tsc --noEmit` clean
- `npx vitest run` 188/188 pass
- (will browser-verify post-redeploy on hongming.moleculesai.app)

PR #2558 enqueued a Task at the start of new requests so the v1 SDK
would accept TaskUpdater.start_work() — fix#1 of the v0→v1 migration
gap (PR #2170). But after Task is enqueued, the executor enters
"task mode" and the SDK rejects raw Message enqueues at the terminal
step:
{"code":-32603,"message":"Received Message object in task mode.
Use TaskStatusUpdateEvent or TaskArtifactUpdateEvent instead."}
Synth-E2E 2026-05-03T11:00:34Z surfaced this on the very first run
after the prior fix cascaded. Validation site is the same
a2a/server/agent_execution/active_task.py — the framework's job is
to enforce the v1 invariant; we're catching up to it.
The fix routes both terminal events through TaskUpdater helpers:
- success: updater.complete(message=msg) wraps in
TaskStatusUpdateEvent(state=COMPLETED, final=True)
- error: updater.failed(message=...) wraps in
TaskStatusUpdateEvent(state=FAILED, final=True)
Both helpers exist in a2a-sdk ≥ 1.0; verified via
TaskUpdater.complete signature.
Tests:
- conftest TaskUpdater stub now records complete/failed calls AND
routes the message back through event_queue.enqueue_event so the
~20 legacy tests asserting on enqueue_event keep working
- 2 new regression tests pin the contract:
* test_terminal_success_routes_via_updater_complete
* test_terminal_error_routes_via_updater_failed
- Both NEW tests verified to FAIL on staging-baseline (without this
fix) and PASS with it — they'd catch the regression before staging
if the wheel-smoke gate covered task-mode terminal events too
(separate yak-shave for #131 follow-up)

Closes the recurrence path of PR #2556. The data fix realigned 8→4
templates in publish-runtime.yml's TEMPLATES variable, but the
underlying drift hazard was unguarded — the next manifest change
could silently leave cascade out of sync again.
This gate fails any PR that changes manifest.json or
publish-runtime.yml in a way that makes the cascade list diverge
from manifest workspace_templates (suffix-stripped). Either
direction is caught:
missing-from-cascade templates that won't auto-rebuild on a new
wheel publish (the codex-stuck-on-stale-runtime
bug class — PR #2512 added codex to manifest,
cascade wasn't updated, codex stayed pinned to
its last-built runtime version for weeks).
extra-in-cascade cascade dispatches to deprecated templates
(the wasted-API-calls + dead-CI-noise class —
PR #2536 pruned 5 templates from manifest;
cascade kept dispatching to all 8 until
PR #2556).
Triggers narrowly: only on PRs that touch manifest.json,
publish-runtime.yml, or the script itself. Fast (single grep+sed+comm
pipeline, no Go build).
Surfaced during the RFC #388 prior-art audit; folded in as the
structural follow-up to the data fix#2556 promised.
Self-tested both failure modes locally before commit:
- Drop codex from cascade → script fails with "MISSING: codex"
- Add langgraph to cascade → script fails with "EXTRA: langgraph"

Boot smoke (#2275) exercises executor.execute() against stub deps
and never hits the real provider, so missing auth env is not a real
blocker. Without this bypass, every adapter that introduces a new
auth env var must be mirrored into molecule-ci's fake-env list — a
maintenance treadmill that just bit hermes-template:
- 2026-05-03 09:47 UTC: hermes publish-image smoke fails on
HERMES_API_KEY preflight (workflow injects CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN,
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY but not
HERMES_API_KEY or OPENROUTER_API_KEY). Failed for two cycles
before being noticed.
The bypass demotes Required-env failures to warnings when
MOLECULE_SMOKE_MODE is truthy, so the unset env stays visible in
the boot log without blocking. Production paths are unchanged
(env unset → fail).

a2a-sdk ≥ 1.0 raises InvalidAgentResponseError when an executor publishes a
TaskStatusUpdateEvent (e.g. via TaskUpdater.start_work) before any Task
event for fresh requests. The framework only auto-creates the Task on
continuation messages (existing task_id resolves via task_manager.get_task);
new requests leave _task_created unset and the SDK validation at
a2a/server/agent_execution/active_task.py rejects the first status update.
PR #2170 migrated the executor surface to v1 but missed this contract. The
synthetic E2E gate caught it on every staging run since (~1 week silent
fail) with:
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"e2e-msg-1","error":{"code":-32603,
"message":"Agent should enqueue Task before TaskStatusUpdateEvent
event","data":null}}
The fix enqueues a Task(state=SUBMITTED) before the TaskUpdater is
constructed, gated on `context.current_task is None` so continuation
messages don't double-enqueue (which the SDK logs about but doesn't reject).
Tests:
- test_first_event_is_task_for_new_request — pins the new-request path:
first enqueue must be a Task with the expected id/context_id
- test_no_task_enqueue_on_continuation — pins the continuation path: when
context.current_task is set, the executor must NOT re-enqueue Task
- conftest: stub Task / TaskStatus / TaskState in the mocked a2a.types
module so the import inside the executor resolves under unit tests
google-adk adapter does not have this bug — its execute() only emits
Message events, not TaskStatusUpdateEvent. Its cancel() does emit one,
but cancel is rarely-invoked and out of scope for this fix.
Live verification path: this PR's merge → publish-runtime cascade → next
synth-E2E firing should go green at step "8/11 Sending A2A message to
parent — expecting agent response".
CP's deprovision flow calls Secrets.DeleteSecret() (provisioner/ec2.go:806)
but only when the deprovision runs to completion. Crashed provisions and
incomplete teardowns leak the per-tenant `molecule/tenant/<org_id>/bootstrap`
secret. At ~$0.40/secret/month, ~45 leaked secrets surfaced as ~$19/month
on the AWS cost dashboard.
The tenant_resources audit table (mig 024) tracks four kinds today —
CloudflareTunnel, CloudflareDNS, EC2Instance, SecurityGroup — and the
existing reconciler doesn't catch Secrets Manager orphans. The proper fix
(KindSecretsManagerSecret + recorder hook + reconciler enumerator) is filed
as a follow-up controlplane issue. This sweeper is the immediate stopgap.
Parallel-shape to sweep-cf-tunnels.sh:
- Hourly schedule offset (:30, between sweep-cf-orphans :15 and
sweep-cf-tunnels :45) so the three janitors don't burst CP admin
at the same minute.
- 24h grace window — never deletes a secret younger than the
provisioning roundtrip, so an in-flight provision can't be racemurdered.
- MAX_DELETE_PCT=50 default (mirrors sweep-cf-orphans for durable
resources; tenant secrets should track 1:1 with live tenants).
- Same schedule-vs-dispatch hardening as the other janitors:
schedule → hard-fail on missing secrets, dispatch → soft-skip.
- 8-way xargs parallelism, dry-run by default, --execute to delete.
Requires a dedicated AWS_JANITOR_* IAM principal — the prod molecule-cp
principal lacks secretsmanager:ListSecrets (it only has scoped
Get/Create/Update/Delete). The workflow's verify-secrets step will hard-fail
on the first scheduled run until those secrets are configured, surfacing
the missing setup loudly rather than silently no-op'ing.

Layer 1 of the runtime-rollout plan. Decouples publish from promotion by
giving operators a `runtime_image_pins` table the provisioner consults at
container-create time. No row = legacy `:latest` behavior; row present =
provisioner pulls `<base>@sha256:<digest>`. One bad publish no longer
breaks every workspace simultaneously.
Mechanics:
- Migration 047: `runtime_image_pins` (template_name PK + sha256 digest +
audit columns) and `workspaces.runtime_image_digest` (nullable, with
partial index) for "show me workspaces still on the old digest" queries.
- `resolveRuntimeImage` (handlers/runtime_image_pin.go): looks up the
pin, returns `<base>@sha256:<digest>` on hit, "" on miss/error so the
provisioner falls through to the legacy tag map. Availability over
pinning — any DB error logs and returns "" rather than blocking the
provision. `WORKSPACE_IMAGE_LOCAL_OVERRIDE=1` short-circuits the
lookup so devs rebuilding template images locally see their fresh
build.
- `WorkspaceConfig.Image` carries the resolved value into the
provisioner. `selectImage` honors it ahead of the runtime→tag map and
falls back to DefaultImage on unknown runtime.
- The existing `imageTagIsMoving` predicate (#215) already returns false
on `@sha256:` form, so digest pins skip the force-pull path naturally.
Tests:
- Handler-side (sqlmock): no-pin/db-error/with-pin/empty/unknown/local-
override paths cover every branch of `resolveRuntimeImage`.
- Provisioner-side: `selectImage` table covers explicit-image preference,
runtime-map fallback, unknown-runtime → default, empty-config →
default. Plus a struct-literal compile-time pin on `Image` so a future
refactor can't silently drop the field.
Layer 2 (per-ring routing via `workspaces.runtime_image_digest`) and the
admin promote/rollback endpoint ride on top of this and ship separately.
The cascade `TEMPLATES` list in publish-runtime.yml had drifted from
manifest.json:
Currently dispatches to: claude-code, langgraph, crewai, autogen,
deepagents, hermes, gemini-cli, openclaw
manifest.json supports: claude-code, hermes, openclaw, codex (after
PR #2536 pruned to 4 actively-supported)
Two consequences of the drift:
1. `codex` (added in PR #2512, supported in manifest) was never in the
cascade — fresh runtime publishes did NOT trigger a codex template
rebuild. Codex stayed pinned to whatever runtime version it last saw
at its own image-build time.
2. langgraph/crewai/autogen/deepagents/gemini-cli — deprecated, no
shipping images, no working A2A — were still receiving cascade
dispatches. Wasted API calls and (worse) green CI on dead repos
masks "this template is dead, stop maintaining it."
Now matches manifest.json workspace_templates exactly. Surfaced during
RFC #388 (fast workspace provision) prior-art audit.
Long-term fix is to derive TEMPLATES from manifest.json so this can't
drift again — captured as a Phase-1 invariant in RFC #388. This commit
is the data fix only; structural fix lands with the bake pipeline.

Independent code review of #2555 caught two contrast regressions left
by the bulk perl pass:
1. text-white → text-ink mass-substitution silently broke destructive
and primary buttons. text-ink resolves to #15181c (warm-paper
near-black) in light mode — dark text on bg-red-600 / bg-amber-600
/ bg-emerald-600 / bg-blue-600 / bg-accent / bg-accent-strong /
bg-good / bg-bad fails WCAG contrast and looks broken. Per-line
pass flips text-ink → text-white only when a saturated bg utility
is present; tinted-state pills (bg-red-950/50 etc.) keep their
intentionally-retained text-* literals.
2. Original mapping table was missing bg-zinc-600 (most-used
hover-state literal for cancel buttons — caused them to JUMP from
warm cream resting state to dark zinc on hover in light mode) and
text-zinc-700/800/900 (separator dots and decorative dim text
invisible on warm-paper light bg). Extended mapping fills these
gaps with bg-surface-card / text-ink-soft.
Also: drop stale tailwind.config.ts reference from components.json
(file deleted by the v3→v4 migration); switch baseColor zinc →
neutral and enable cssVariables since v4 uses CSS-driven tokens.
Future shadcn-cli invocations would have failed or written malformed
components without this.
27 sites in 27 files affected by #1, ~20 sites in 20 files by #2.
1214/1214 unit tests still pass; build still clean.
Findings courtesy of multi-model review per code-review-and-quality

CI's `npm ci` failed because the previous lock was generated on macOS
arm64, which omits the Linux-specific optional deps that
@tailwindcss/postcss → lightningcss-linux-x64-gnu transitively need
(@emnapi/runtime, @emnapi/core).
Re-ran `npm install --include=optional` so the lock includes every
platform variant of lightningcss + the @emnapi packages they pull in.
Runner (Linux x64) now has what it needs; local macOS install still
fine (npm picks the matching binary at install time).

Self-review of PR #2553 caught an unreachable defensive block at
test_load_skills_call_sites.py:99-103: the inner check guarded
`call.func.__class__.__name__ == "Name"` from a FunctionDef, but
`_find_load_skills_calls` already filters its return type to
`ast.Call` — `FunctionDef` cannot reach that loop body. The block
was a no-op `pass` with a misleading comment.
Removing keeps the gate behaviorally identical; tests still pass.
Same five-axis review pass that turned this up also approved the
substantive logic of #2553, so no behavior change here.

Closes the documentation + audit gap for declarative skill-compat. The
plumbing has been live since PR #117 (RuntimeCapabilities) and
skill_loader's `_normalize_runtime_field` has been emitting filter
decisions for weeks, but:
- No public doc explained the `runtime` frontmatter field, so skill
authors didn't know how to opt in / opt out.
- No structural gate ensured every load_skills() call site threads
current_runtime — a future caller forgetting the kwarg silently
force-loads runtime-incompatible skills (no AttributeError, just a
delayed crash on first tool invocation).
Two changes:
1. docs/agent-runtime/skills.md
- Adds `runtime`, `tags`, `examples` to the Frontmatter Fields table.
- Adds a Runtime Compatibility section with example, accepted shapes
(universal default, list, string sugar), and the "logged + omitted,
not crashed" failure mode. Notes that match values come from each
adapter's name() (the same string in config.yaml's runtime: field).
2. workspace/tests/test_load_skills_call_sites.py
- Static AST gate: walks every workspace/*.py (excluding tests),
finds load_skills(...) Call nodes, fails if any lacks
current_runtime= as a keyword.
- Defense-in-depth `test_known_call_sites_present` — pins that the
scan actually sees the two known callers (adapter_base,
skill_loader.watcher) so a refactor that moves them is loud.
- Sanity-checked the matcher against a synthetic violating module.
Same-shape pattern as PR #2358 (tenant_resources audit-coverage AST
gate, #150) — pin the contract structurally, not just behaviorally.

Adds adapter.event_log property+setter on BaseAdapter so adapters can
emit structured events (tool dispatch, skill load, executor errors)
without coupling to the chosen backend. Default is a shared no-op
DisabledEventLog; main.py overrides at boot from the
observability.event_log config block (PR-2 schema).
The shape is intentionally additive:
- Property is invisible to the BaseAdapter signature snapshot drift
gate (the helper walks vars(cls) for callables only — properties
are not callable). Verified with a regression test in the new
test_adapter_base_event_log.py.
- Existing adapters continue to work unchanged. Template repos that
never call self.event_log get the no-op for free.
- Setter accepts any EventLogBackend, so swapping memory↔disabled
at runtime (or to a future Redis backend) requires no adapter
code change.
Sequels:
- PR-3c: emit events from claude-code/hermes adapters at the
natural points (tool dispatch, skill load).
- PR-4: skill-compat audit + SKILL.md frontmatter docs.
- Platform-side /workspaces/:id/activity endpoint reads the buffer.

Replaces the hard-coded HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL=30 in heartbeat.py and
log_level="info" in main.py with values from
ObservabilityConfig (#119 PR-1, schema landed in PR #2538).
Concrete plumbing:
- heartbeat.HeartbeatLoop accepts an `interval_seconds=` keyword
arg. Defaults to the legacy module constant so 2-arg callers
(existing tests, any downstream code that hasn't been updated)
keep their existing 30s behavior.
- main.py constructs HeartbeatLoop with
config.observability.heartbeat_interval_seconds — the value the
config parser already clamped to [5, 300].
- main.py's uvicorn.Config takes log_level from
config.observability.log_level (lowercased — uvicorn's convention
differs from Python logging's) with LOG_LEVEL env still winning
as an ops-side debugging override.
Adapter EventLog wiring deferred to PR-3b (#208 follow-up) — touches
adapter_base interface + needs careful design, kept separate to keep
this PR small + reviewable.
Tests:
- test_heartbeat.py: 3 new tests pin default interval, explicit
override, and the [5, 300] band that the constructor accepts
without re-clamping (clamping is the parser's job).
- All 88 tests in test_heartbeat.py + test_config.py pass.

The Docker-mode orphan sweeper was incorrectly targeting external runtime
workspaces, revoking their auth tokens ~6 minutes after creation (one
sweep cycle past the 5-min grace).
External workspaces have NO local container by design — their agent runs
off-host. The "no live container" predicate the sweep uses to detect
wiped-volume orphans matches every external workspace unconditionally,
which was killing the only auth credential the off-host agent has.
Reproducer: create runtime=external workspace, paste the auth token into
molecule-mcp / curl, wait 5 minutes. Next request returns
`HTTP 401 — token may be revoked`. Platform log shows
`Orphan sweeper: revoking stale tokens for workspace <id> (no live
container; volume likely wiped)`.
Fix: add `AND w.runtime != 'external'` to the sweep's SELECT. The
existing test regexes (third-pass query expectations + the shared
expectStaleTokenSweepNoOp helper) are tightened to require the new
predicate, so a regression that drops it fails CI immediately.

The wheel-build drift gate caught it correctly: any new top-level
module under workspace/ must be listed in TOP_LEVEL_MODULES so its
`from event_log import …` statements get rewritten to
`from molecule_runtime.event_log import …` at package time.
Without this entry, the published wheel ships event_log.py un-rewritten
and crashes at runtime with ModuleNotFoundError on first heartbeat.

Adds workspace/event_log.py with an in-memory EventLog backend and a
disabled no-op variant, plus EventLogConfig nested in
ObservabilityConfig (backend / ttl_seconds / max_entries).
The event log is the append-and-query buffer that the canvas Activity
tab and platform `/activity` endpoint will read in PR-3 of the #119
stack. Two backends ship in this PR:
- InMemoryEventLog: bounded ring buffer with TTL eviction, monotonic
ids that survive eviction so cursors don't break, thread-safe for
concurrent appends from heartbeat + main loop + A2A executor.
- DisabledEventLog: no-op for `backend: disabled` — opts the
workspace out without crashing callers that propagate event ids.
Schema-only PR — no consumers wired yet. Wiring lands in PR-3.
Test coverage:
- 34 new test_event_log.py tests (100% line coverage on event_log.py)
- 9 new test_config.py tests for EventLogConfig parsing
- Concurrency stress with 8 threads × 200 appends — verifies unique
monotonic ids under contention
- TTL + max_entries eviction with injected clock (no time.sleep)
- Disabled backend contract pinned
Closes#207.

Heartbeats fire every 60s per workspace and were the dominant caller
of ReadPlatformInboundSecret — one DB SELECT each, purely to redeliver
the same value. For an N-workspace fleet that's N SELECTs/minute of
pure overhead, growing linearly with the fleet (#189).
This adds a sync.Map cache keyed by workspaceID with a 5-minute TTL:
- **Read-through**: cache miss → DB SELECT → populate → return.
- **Write-through**: every IssuePlatformInboundSecret call refreshes
the cache with the new value before returning, so the lazy-heal mint
path (readOrLazyHealInboundSecret) doesn't see a stale read of the
value it just wrote.
- **TTL eviction**: 5 minutes — generous enough that the heartbeat
hot path hits cache for ~5 reads in a row before re-validating, short
enough that an out-of-band rotation (operator running
`UPDATE workspaces SET platform_inbound_secret=...` directly)
propagates within minutes without requiring a redeploy.
- **Absence not cached**: ErrNoInboundSecret skips the cache write so
the lazy-heal recovery contract for the column-NULL case
(readOrLazyHealInboundSecret in workspace_provision_shared.go) keeps
working.
Memory footprint is bounded by the active workspace fleet (~200 bytes
per entry); deleted workspaces leave dead entries until process restart,
acceptable given workspace-deletion is operator-rare.
Why in-process instead of Redis: workspace-server runs as a single
Railway service today (per memory project_controlplane_ownership);
adding Redis for this single column read would be over-engineering.
The cache is a self-contained, Redis-free upgrade that keeps the same
semantic surface (read returns the latest secret) while collapsing
the heartbeat read storm. If the deployment ever fans out across
replicas, an operator-side rotation propagates per-replica TTL-bounded
without needing a shared write log.
Tests: 5 new cases covering cache hit within TTL, refresh after TTL
(simulating an operator rotation via SQL), write-through on Issue,
absence-not-cached, and Reset clearing all entries. The setupMock
helper in wsauth and setupTestDB helper in handlers both call
ResetInboundSecretCacheForTesting() at start + cleanup so write-through
state from one test doesn't shadow SELECT expectations in the next.
SetInboundSecretCacheNowForTesting() exposes a deterministic clock
override so the TTL test doesn't sleep.
Task: #189.
Previously Start() only pulled when the image was missing locally
(imgErr != nil). Once a tenant's Docker daemon had `:latest` cached,
it stuck on that snapshot forever even after publish-runtime pushed
a newer image with the same tag — the same image-cache class that
sibling task #232 closed on the controlplane redeploy path.
Now Start() additionally re-pulls when the tag is "moving"
(`:latest`, no tag, `:staging`, `:main`, `:dev`, `:edge`, `:nightly`,
`:rolling`). Pinned tags (semver, sha-prefixed, date-stamped, build-id)
and digest-pinned references (`@sha256:...`) skip the pull because
their contents are by definition immutable.
The classifier (imageTagIsMoving) is deliberately conservative on the
"moving" side — only the well-known moving tags trip it. Misclassifying
a pinned tag as moving wastes bandwidth on every provision; misclassifying
moving as pinned silently bricks the fleet on stale snapshots, which
is exactly the bug class this fix closes.
Edge cases handled:
- Registry hostname with port (`localhost:5000/foo`) — the `:5000` is
not mistaken for a tag.
- Digest pinning (`image@sha256:...`) — never re-pulled even if a
moving-looking tag is also present.
- Legacy local-build tags (`workspace-template:hermes`) — treated as
pinned (no registry to move from).
Test coverage: 22 cases across all classifier shapes. No changes to
the pull-failure path (still best-effort, ContainerCreate still
surfaces the actionable "image not found" error if the pull failed
and the cache is also empty).
Task: #215. Companion to #232.
