Summary

Onboarding reused a running NemoClaw-managed OpenShell gateway even when its configured Docker network was missing, so later sandbox creation failed with a Docker 404. This change verifies the exact configured network before reuse, marks an authoritative gateway stale when that network is absent, and stops safely when inspection is inconclusive.

Related Issue

Fixes #9594

Changes

  • Inspect the configured Docker network through the existing managed gateway reuse boundary and classify exact evidence as present, absent, or inconclusive.
  • Mark a reused NemoClaw-managed OpenShell gateway stale only after its process identity and lifecycle authority are proven, then let the existing gateway lifecycle owner retire and restart it.
  • Fail before provider or sandbox mutation when network inspection is inconclusive or the gateway is not under NemoClaw lifecycle authority. The change does not create, remove, or modify a foreign Docker network.
  • Add regression coverage for the missing-network failure, exact-name validation, permission and malformed-output failures, foreign-gateway handling, restart ordering, and partial restart failure state.
  • Reproduce the escaped defect before the production fix: npx vitest run --project cli src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.test.ts failed 1 of 9 tests because the missing network was reported as healthy. The final focused run passed 47 of 47 tests.

Type of Change

  • Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
  • Code change with doc updates
  • Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications)
  • Doc only (includes code sample changes)

Quality Gates

  • Tests added or updated for changed behavior
  • Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification:
  • Tests not applicable — justification:
  • Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging)
  • Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification: Root-cause and sensitive-workflow review passed exact commit 6d136ebc0c8c43b7120ef213a06681a1c4d42203. It covered command construction, exact lifecycle authority, present/absent/inconclusive result classification, foreign resource isolation, pre-mutation failure, restart ordering, and partial failure state.
  • Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue: The user approved a narrow waiver for env-var-docs, which fails identically on clean base 01e0b92645a68d4ff772dce20ee5758def7211cc because NEMOCLAW_BEDROCK_RUNTIME_ADAPTER_PORT and NEMOCLAW_HTTPS_PIN_RUNTIME_ADAPTER_PORT are both documented and still retained in the stale allowlist. This PR changes neither entry; every other applicable hook passed.

DGX Station Hardware Evidence

  • AGENTS.md blob: 513518cdfca42e3a18fed71109e6d0eb60151d13
  • Evidence: The change restores the documented stale-gateway recreation behavior when the configured Docker network is absent. It does not change a command, configuration, default, or schema. The existing behavior is documented in docs/reference/commands.mdx lines 884-890.

Verification

  • Targeted behavior tests pass for the current change set, or tests are marked not applicable above — command/result or justification: npx vitest run --project cli src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.test.ts src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/gateway.test.ts passed 47 of 47 tests. The final npm run test:changed passed 32 growth guardrails and 47 affected tests. npm run typecheck:cli and npm run checks:repository passed.
  • Applicable broad gate passed — npm test for broad runtime/test-harness changes; npm run check for repo-wide validation/coverage changes — command/result: not applicable to this focused onboarding lifecycle fix; the targeted tests, changed-test selection, CLI typecheck, repository checks, and normal hooks except the recorded waiver passed

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds Docker network inspection to gateway reuse. It classifies network state, reconciles managed and listener-based gateways, handles missing or inconclusive networks, and tests reuse, recreation, ordering, and failure paths.

Changes

Gateway network reuse

Layer / File(s) Summary
Network inspection contract and wiring
src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.ts, src/lib/onboard.ts, src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.test.ts
Adds network inspection types, Docker command execution, result classification, dependency wiring, and configured-network fixtures.
Gateway reuse reconciliation
src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.ts, src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.test.ts
Validates the configured network across managed and listener-based reuse paths. Missing networks mark managed gateways stale. Inconclusive checks reject reuse. Untrusted listener PIDs are not recorded.
Gateway recreation lifecycle tests
src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/gateway.test.ts
Verifies network refresh ordering, legacy-state retirement, error propagation, and incomplete steps during recreation failures.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to a6084

This localized onboarding fix recreates a managed gateway when its configured Docker network is missing and avoids mutation when inspection is inconclusive; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

Reviewed commit under review 6d136ebc0c8c43b7120ef213a06681a1c4d42203 against base SHA e231409ac0d554122349d3792aeaf9d324a34c8c. The focused 47-test suite passes. I found no blocking findings.

The listener adoption path does not depend only on managedServicePid. A standalone listener must match the expected executable, gateway target, complete Docker-driver runtime environment, and NemoClaw sandbox namespace before NemoClaw records its PID. managedServicePid supplies the alternate packaged-service authority. The missing-network path therefore preserves the existing lifecycle-authority contract.

Security review:

  • Secrets and credentials — PASS: network inspection carries no credentials and suppresses raw output.
  • Input validation and data sanitization — PASS: the Docker network name is one argv value and exact output is required.
  • Authentication and authorization — PASS: destructive recovery follows verified standalone or packaged-service lifecycle authority.
  • Dependencies and third-party libraries — PASS: the change adds no dependency or downloaded artifact.
  • Error handling and logging — PASS: absent and inconclusive inspection results remain distinct and fail before provider or sandbox mutation.
  • Cryptography and data protection — PASS: the change does not alter cryptography or protected data.
  • Configuration and security headers — PASS: an absent network cannot be treated as reusable configuration.
  • Security testing — PASS: tests cover exact matching, ambiguous output, foreign authority, ordering, and partial failure.
  • System security — PASS: the state transition verifies the network before reuse and delegates recreation to the existing lifecycle owner.

Terminology decisions are advisory. They affect the assessment only when a separate finding identifies concrete semantic impact.

  • established — lifecycle authority at src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.ts:185: Retain the established term.
  • justified — inconclusive at src/lib/onboard/gateway-reuse.ts:106: Retain the term because it identifies a fail-closed result category.
