Overview

Coding harness discovery cleanup can kill a published Relay worker along with its MCP launcher. Recovery can then choose a disconnected MCP or let delayed cleanup remove a replacement worker. This PR separates worker lifetime from launcher lifetime and lets MCP initialize while the daemon verifies worker readiness.

These contribution confirmations apply:

  • I confirm this contribution is my own work, or I have the right to submit it under this project's license.
  • I searched existing issues and open pull requests, and this does not duplicate existing work.

Details

The changes cover these behaviors:

  • Detach Unix workers into a new session. On Windows, request Job breakaway and inherit only the intended handles. Keep the protected bootstrap pipe, remove the route credential from the child environment, and use configured logging sinks with inherited stderr as the default.
  • Choose launch owners from authenticated, connected MCP clients. Revoke abandoned grants, serialize cancellation with publication, and fence failure, disconnect, and drain cleanup by worker identity and generation. Preserve the 30-second reconnect window and existing drain policy.
  • Allow startup to take as long as needed. Log progress every 60 seconds and record elapsed startup time. Retry actual failures with increasing delays capped at 60 seconds.
  • Preserve unmatched completion hooks as sanitized marks without invented starts, parents, or durations. Use a bounded cache for duplicate completions and late starts. Keep ATIF and GenAI omission of these marks.
  • Run MCP initialization and worker activation concurrently after authenticated registration. Forward through passthrough until runtime, plugins, worker control, and HTTP readiness are verified. Add --require-worker for HTTP 503 during worker unavailability. Keep each submitted request and stream on its original destination. Avoid replaying completed startup grants when using older daemons.
  • Authenticate legacy Python environment attestations with the original bootstrap key. Reject forged tags and missing keys. Older environments whose original key is unavailable need reprovisioning from trusted source.
  • Keep daemon control responsive during durable worker cleanup. Release cancelled or failed startup sessions immediately and log cleanup task failures.
  • Run Windows lifecycle tests outside restrictive CI jobs. Preserve cleanup for test children and the active Rust toolchain. Stream test output while tests run.
  • Update daemon operations, reference, architecture, and observability documentation in the final commit.

The following validation passed:

  • Focused lifecycle, routing, completion-hook, and attestation regressions.
  • just test-rust: all 5,608 workspace and plugin example tests passed without retries.
  • PowerShell parsing, C# compilation, argument preservation, exit codes, live native output, trailing output, and split UTF-8 checks.
  • just docs.
  • Staged repository hooks, including formatting, Clippy, Cargo checks, dependency checks, and documentation link checks.
  • The CI matrix for the pushed head, including native Windows lifecycle tests on x64 and ARM64.

Windows ARM needed one retry for the unchanged OpenTelemetry test slow_trace_flush_does_not_block_other_subscribers_or_lifecycle_barriers.

The Codex desktop fresh-install, restart, and logout/login scenarios with attributable collector records still need validation on a deployed patched build. Published-site redirect checking was unavailable because FDR returned HTTP 403.

The CLI adds strict routing. No binding API or exporter configuration changes are included. New MCP clients retain the earlier startup sequence with daemons that lack publication-aware cancellation.

Where should the reviewer start?

Start with crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/registry.rs and its activation, cancellation, and generation transitions. Then review crates/cli/src/daemon/mcp/mod.rs for child ownership and concurrent initialization. The daemon registry, socket, MCP, and CLI tests cover the lifetime and recovery races. Session tests cover partial hooks and the attestation tests cover the authentication bypass.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added --require-worker, which returns HTTP 503 until a worker is ready, including during startup and recovery. By default, requests can use passthrough while workers start or recover.
    • Worker startup now retries with progress reporting; requests already using passthrough stay on that path.
    • Unmatched completion hooks produce point-in-time marks without missing start information. Stable identifiers help prevent duplicate events, and tool completion data is sanitized.
    • Pending worker launches can be cancelled.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Invalid legacy environment attestation signatures are now rejected.
    • Improved detached worker handling on Windows.
  • Documentation
    • Updated daemon setup, lifecycle, recovery, and observability guidance.

Walkthrough

The changes revise daemon worker routing, activation cancellation, recovery, and startup. They add unmatched session completion marks, tighten Python attestation verification, update Windows process handling and test execution, and revise daemon and observability documentation.

Changes

Daemon worker lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Worker routing and retry state
crates/cli/src/commands/daemon.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/registry.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/lifecycle.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/mod.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server/socket.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/daemon/*, crates/cli/tests/cli_tests.rs, docs/daemon/architecture.mdx, docs/daemon/operations.mdx, docs/daemon/reference.mdx
The daemon adds --require-worker, connected-MCP launch eligibility, startup progress reporting, and retry delays capped at 60 seconds. Default routing can use pass-through while a worker starts or recovers. Strict mode returns 503 until a worker is ready.
Activation ownership and cancellation
crates/cli/src/daemon/common/*, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/registry.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server/socket.rs, crates/cli/src/daemon/mcp/mod.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/daemon/*
The control protocol adds activation cancellation. The broker serializes cancellation with publication and cancels associated staged workers. MCP tracks publication uncertainty and uses cancellation outcomes during cleanup.
Worker startup and detached process handling
crates/cli/Cargo.toml, crates/cli/src/daemon/worker/*, crates/cli/src/process/detached.rs, crates/cli/src/process/supervision/windows.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/daemon/mcp_tests.rs
Worker registration retries within its recovery period. Runtime initialization handles control events, and readiness no longer uses the former 15-second timeout. Windows detached spawning supports explicit standard streams and breakaway checks.
Windows test execution
.github/scripts/run-windows-tests.ps1, .github/workflows/ci_rust.yml, justfile
The Windows wrapper runs tests in a separate job-based process, captures output and exit status, and cleans up temporary files. The Rust test task uses a Windows-specific Nextest command.

Session completion marks

Layer / File(s) Summary
Completion event identity and cache
crates/cli/src/agents/shared/adapters.rs, crates/cli/src/sessions/completion.rs, crates/cli/src/sessions/mod.rs, crates/cli/src/sessions/routing.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/shared/completion_tests.rs
Adapters mark generated tool and subagent IDs. A bounded cache deduplicates completion events by owner, session, kind, and source invocation ID.
Unmatched completion handling and sanitization
crates/cli/src/sessions/mod.rs, crates/core/src/api/scope.rs, crates/core/src/api/tool.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/shared/session_tests.rs, crates/core/tests/unit/scope_api_tests.rs
Unmatched tool, subagent, agent, and turn endings emit completion marks instead of synthesizing missing starts. Tool completion data passes through request and response sanitizers.
Observability documentation
docs/configure-plugins/observability/about.mdx
The guide describes completion marks, deduplication limits, ownership behavior, sanitization, and output-format handling. It also updates exporter and telemetry-delivery guidance.

Python environment attestation verification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Legacy attestation authentication
crates/cli/src/configuration/mod.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/shared/config_tests.rs, crates/cli/tests/coverage/shared/plugins_lifecycle_tests.rs
When an environment-local key is absent, verification uses the existing bootstrap key or returns false if that key is absent. Tests cover altered digests, forged tags, and missing keys.

Daemon lifecycle documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Daemon operation and lifecycle guidance
docs/daemon/architecture.mdx, docs/daemon/operations.mdx, docs/daemon/linux.mdx, docs/daemon/reference.mdx
The documentation updates daemon service responsibilities, worker routing and recovery, diagnostics, identity guidance, and streaming behavior.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 81bd7

Windows test output is available during the run, but slow file transactions may still delay daemon requests and activation grants may accumulate across worker generations. Resolve or explicitly accept those risks before merging.

Read worker_sessions and activations under separate, sequential locks.
- Line 2126: Async handlers block on worker_generation_publication while durable
file I/O runs. Add a dedicated short-lived in-memory fence for registry
transitions, and use it in expire_activation_routes, release_mcp,
cancel_activation, activation_failed, register_worker, and disconnected instead
of the publication mutex; keep durable generation writes outside the fence and
restore state only if the generation still matches. Change

Review comments at @crates/cli/src/sessions/mod.rs:
- Around line 2201-2203: Update the early return in the TurnEnded handling path
when turn_scope is None so active tool spans are cleaned up before
completion_mark returns, reusing the existing close_turn cleanup where
applicable; alternatively, take this path only when no active spans remain.
Preserve the existing completion_mark behavior after cleanup.

🟠 Major · Sanitize reserved tool-completion marks without tool_name. · scope.rs:464-534

crates/core/src/api/scope.rs:464-534
🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Sanitize reserved tool-completion marks without tool_name.

The public mark API accepts arbitrary data. When data.arguments or data.result is present without a string data.tool_name, completion_mark_transform returns None. The changed path then calls dispatch_sanitized_event, which applies only ordinary event sanitizers. It does not apply the tool request/response sanitizers used for valid tool completions. An exporter can therefore receive the unsanitized payload.

Apply the tool sanitizer based on the reserved completion mark and reject or sanitize malformed marks that lack a valid tool_name. Do not let them fall through to ordinary event dispatch.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Include agent_kind in CompletionKey.

The Codex and Claude hook routes can emit AgentEnded events with the same owner, session ID, and source invocation ID. The current key omits SessionEvent.agent_kind, so the first completion can cause the cache to suppress the second event before it is applied.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Release the staged worker when startup setup fails.

run registers the worker before resolving managed configuration and dynamic plugins. Either ? returns before runtime::serve, where readiness is sent. The broker then keeps the disconnected, unpublished worker during its grace period and removes it only after the timeout. This can delay startup recovery and retry handling.

On these post-registration setup errors, explicitly cancel the staged registration before returning, or add an equivalent broker cancellation path.

565-584: Bound the blocking wait loop in the fixture.

The loop polls try_wait with std::thread::sleep and has a 3 second deadline. This is correct for a sync fixture. In the Ok branch, the test reads the .rejected file right after the worker exits. The worker writes this file before it panics, so the ordering is safe.

No change required.


560-562: LGTM!


513-524: Fixture shape is acceptable.

The fixture writes the .rejected marker before it panics, so the launcher can verify the rejection reason. The marker uses a separate extension from the PID file.

🟡 Minor · Release cancelled staged sessions before the disconnect grace expires. · server.rs:2111-2122

crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server.rs:2111-2122
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Release cancelled staged sessions before the disconnect grace expires.

cancel_staged_activation only cancels the worker peer. The worker session remains until the disconnect grace expires. Its u64::MAX lease prevents admission cleanup from pruning it.

register_worker counts unpublished sessions and returns 429 TOO_MANY_REQUESTS when MAX_STAGED_WORKER_SESSIONS is reached. Repeated configuration or plugin-discovery failures can therefore reject new worker registrations during the grace window. The readiness cleanup does not apply because these failures occur before runtime::serve.

Use the existing worker-disconnect cleanup immediately for terminal activation cancellation. Preserve both revoke_active_worker_generation and registry.worker_failed; removing only the map entry would skip that cleanup.

Review comments at @.github/scripts/run-windows-tests.ps1:
- Around line 173-192: Update the process-waiting flow around
`$process.WaitForExit()` to stream test output while the bootstrap runs: poll
with a timeout, read only newly appended content from both stdout and stderr
using streams that allow concurrent writes, and write each poll’s output to the
console. Retain a final read after exit so trailing output is not lost.

Review comments at @crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server/socket.rs:
- Around line 757-772: Update the blocking cleanup tasks in disconnected and
cleanup_worker_session to handle JoinError instead of discarding it. Log
failures using the established nemo_relay.daemon event and error_kind
conventions, with the matching disconnect-transition and
worker-generation-revocation events; preserve the existing cleanup flow.

2483-2483: Maintenance pruning still removes no activation grants.

fresh_launch sets deadline_unix_ms = u64::MAX (Line 2113). As a result, retain(|_, activation| activation.deadline_unix_ms > now) keeps every entry. A grant that is published and consumed is removed only on the cancel, failure, disconnect, and expiry paths. After its worker drains or fails, the grant stays in state.activations for the life of the daemon. The map gains one entry per published generation. The earlier review raised this issue. Change the condition so it keeps consumed entries only while a WorkerControlSession still references the activation ID. Collect the live IDs from worker_sessions first, then lock activations. Do not hold both locks at once.

Start Unix workers in a new session and request Windows Job breakaway with an explicit inherited-handle list. Preserve the protected bootstrap pipe, inherited stderr, and cleanup for ordinary children. Add process-group and Job cleanup regressions.

Separate connected launch candidates from retained MCP references, revoke grants on owner loss, and serialize cancellation with publication. Fence disconnect, failure, and drain cleanup by worker generation. Keep slow startup alive with progress logs and retry actual failures with capped backoff. Preserve unpublished-child cleanup and the reconnect grace period.

Emit sanitized completion marks without fabricated starts, parents, or durations. Deduplicate stable invocation identifiers in a bounded worker-local cache and suppress late starts without conflating owners or lifecycle identifiers. Keep matched endings on existing paths and retain ATIF and GenAI omission of marks.

Serve MCP stdio after authenticated registration while the worker starts and recovers. Route new requests through passthrough until readiness, with --require-worker for strict rejection. Preserve request destinations across cutover and keep legacy daemons on the synchronous startup sequence without replaying a completed grant.

#### Overview

Keep the activation that originally launched a worker associated with
its generation across a daemon restart. Previously, Relay could
associate a recovered worker with a replacement activation created after
restart. Cleanup for the original activation would then appear
superseded and could terminate the recovered worker.

- [x] I confirm this contribution is my own work, or I have the right to
submit it under this project's license.
- [x] I searched existing issues and open pull requests, and this does
not duplicate existing work.

#### Details

- Persist the launch activation ID with the active worker generation.
- Continue loading existing generation records that do not contain an
activation ID.
- Use the persisted activation ID when its worker generation recovers.
- Record the original activation as published and revoke any replacement
activation for the route.
- Restore the complete previous generation record if publication loses a
race.
- Add registry, durable-state, and server tests for the pre-restart
activation A and post-restart activation B sequence.

Validation:

- `cargo test -p nemo-relay-cli
recovered_generation_preserves_pre_restart_activation_ownership --
--nocapture`
- `cargo test -p nemo-relay-cli
recovered_worker_preserves_its_launch_activation_across_route_replacement
-- --nocapture`
- `just test-rust`
- `uv run pre-commit run --all-files`

#### Where should the reviewer start?

Start with `ActiveWorkerGenerations::publish` and
`ActiveWorkerGenerations::launch_activation_id` in
`crates/cli/src/daemon/common/state.rs`. Then review
`recover_worker_after_validation` and `publish_ready_worker` in
`crates/cli/src/daemon/broker/server.rs`, followed by
`recovered_generation_preserves_pre_restart_activation_ownership` in
`crates/cli/tests/coverage/daemon/server_tests.rs`.

The key design decision is to persist the activation that launched each
published generation. Recovery can then distinguish the original
activation from a replacement created after restart.
