Cover the two installer bugs fixed in c98acb9e8 so they cannot regress:
- TestRootInstallScriptSourceGuardSurvivesPipedExecution runs the source guard
through stdin the way curl ... | bash does and asserts it reaches the
installer body instead of aborting on BASH_SOURCE[0] unbound. (#1526)
- TestInstallSHAgentVersionMismatchIgnoresVPrefix drives the version check and
asserts v6.0.4 vs 6.0.4 does not warn while a real 6.0.3 vs 6.0.4 does, plus
content assertions pinning the normalization in scripts/install.sh. (#1527)
Refs #1526#1527
Two installer bugs reported after the v5 to v6 upgrades:
- The server installer (install.sh) guarded its "am I being sourced?" check
with a bare ${BASH_SOURCE[0]}. When piped to bash (curl ... | bash) there is
no source file, so under `set -u` the run aborted with "BASH_SOURCE[0]:
unbound variable" before the installer body. Default the lookup and only
early-return on a genuine source. Regression of the v5 fix in #1396. (#1526)
- The agent installer (scripts/install.sh) compared the downloaded binary's
version ("v6.0.4") against the server /api/version value ("6.0.4") verbatim,
raising a spurious mismatch warning on matching versions. Strip a leading "v"
from both sides before comparing so only a genuine difference warns. (#1527)

The in-app updater and the unattended timer both target the public
rcourtman/Pulse community assets, so a Pro install that used them was
silently downgraded to community. Guard 2 (983a89326) blocked in-app
apply on the Pro edition, which stopped the downgrade but left Pro
installs with no update path except manual portal downloads. That
friction is a plausible driver of the runtime split: as of 2026-07-08
only 10 of 66 active paid licenses have any Pro-runtime install.
Root fix: the compiled Pro binary now checks and applies updates
through the license server download broker (GET /v1/downloads/pulse-pro
with the installation token and instance fingerprint). The check
compares against the broker's pinned private release instead of GitHub,
respecting the stable/rc channel guard. Apply re-resolves fresh signed
R2 URLs at apply time, verifies the archive against the same pinned
pulse-installer SSHSIG key plus the broker manifest sha256, and refuses
GitHub-shaped download URLs outright. An unactivated Pro binary still
refuses with the portal fallback. The community edition path is
unchanged.
The update banner restores in-app apply for auto-updatable Pro
deployments and keeps the portal instructions for deployments the
updater cannot drive (Docker). scripts/pulse-auto-update.sh now skips
when the installed binary reports Pulse Pro so the unattended timer can
never reinstall community over Pro.
Note: internal/updates/pro_update.go and manager_pro_update_test.go for
this change landed one commit early inside 313552deb via a parallel
session committing a shared staged index; this commit completes the
wiring they belong to.
TestUpdateDemoWorkflowUsesGovernedNetworkPath still asserted the retired
authkey: TS_AUTHKEY line; 0a9a29d63 moved update-demo-server.yml to the
OAuth client (TS_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID / TS_OAUTH_SECRET, tag:infra), so the
test now pins those lines instead.
Commit 0a9a29d63 moved deploy-demo-server.yml and update-demo-server.yml
from the static TS_AUTHKEY to the Tailscale OAuth client but left the
release promotion policy pin asserting TS_AUTHKEY, so the Canonical
Governance run failed at the promotion policy unit tests once the
completion guard false positive (fixed in 54a6118d1) stopped masking
the step. The pin now asserts the OAuth client id and secret and pins
the static key retirement.
The guard judged substantive contract updates by diffing HEAD against
the index. In CI nothing is staged, the index equals HEAD, so every
contract file piped in via --files-from-stdin looked unchanged and the
guard blocked compliant pushes. Concretely, run 28944317805 blocked
7645965af even though its deployment-installability.md addition sits
inside the Current State section.
The guard now accepts --diff-base <ref> (requires --files-from-stdin),
resolves it to its merge base with HEAD so the comparison anchor
matches the three-dot changed-file list, and compares base vs HEAD
contract texts in that mode. Pre-commit keeps the index comparison.
The canonical-governance workflow passes the push or PR range base.
The weekly release-dry-run schedule failed at 'Resolve rehearsal
metadata' because GitHub does not apply workflow_dispatch input
defaults to schedule events, so rollback_version arrived empty and
resolve_release_promotion.py rejected the run.
Scheduled runs now pass --derive-rollback-latest-stable, which fills
an empty rollback_version with the latest stable tag preceding the
rehearsal version (currently v6.0.4 for 6.0.5-rc.3). Manual dispatches
keep the explicit rollback_version requirement; the stale prefilled
5.1.29 default is removed so operators state the target themselves.
The deployment-installability contract records the scoped scheduled
exception.

The install command is generated under the Settings infrastructure
installer, not a "Settings > Agents" tab. Correct the agent log, installer
warning, and Machines tooltip to say "the Pulse UI" so the recovery step is
accurate.
Refs #1515
When an upgraded or restored Pulse server no longer recognises an agent's
API token, the report endpoint returns 401. The agent buffered and retried
that report forever with only a generic warning, and the server kept the
node green at its last known agent version because a Proxmox node stays
online via the PVE API poll even after its agent dies.
- Agent: special-case 401 on /api/agents/agent/report. Drop the report
instead of buffering it and log a throttled, actionable error pointing the
operator at the install command to mint a fresh token.
- Installer: verify_agent_server_registration now tells a rejected token
(401/403) apart from "agent has not reported yet" and prints the recovery
steps at install time instead of a vague soft warning.
- Status layer: resourceFromHost flags a stale agent (its host marked
offline by the staleness evaluator) and carries the agent's own last
report time. Coalescing keeps a node online via the PVE source but the
dead agent stays flagged, so its version is no longer presented as current.
The Machines table renders such versions as "(stale)".
contract_patch_has_substantive_change walked git diff --unified=1000
output and tracked the last ## header seen in the patch, so an edit
more than 1000 lines below its section header (e.g. deep inside
unified-resources.md's Current State) lost its section and was wrongly
reported as not substantive, forcing a contract-neutral bypass on
74131e56e.
Replace the patch walk with full-file attribution: diff the HEAD blob
against the staged blob and map every changed line to its section via
a per-line section map built from the complete file. Covers new
contract files (empty HEAD blob) and keeps metadata-only edits
non-substantive. Adds regression tests for edits >1000 lines below
their section header in both directions.
Make release validation resolve repository paths before entering external release directories, and execute extracted Linux release binaries through Docker when the host cannot run them directly.
Seed the hidden demo fixture entitlement during stable demo updates so release builds can enable governed mock resources after runtime configuration is restored.
Keep the deployment contract and release policy checks aligned with the release-build entitlement gate.
Refs #1515
- restore demo runtime env and verify mock fixtures even when the target version is already installed
- require recovered agent update state to include both URL and token before reporting success
Reuse shared release-line validation for Docker, floating-tag, and Helm artifact workflows so stable patch tags can publish from the previous stable tag without a fabricated same-version RC.
- bump release, Docker, and Helm metadata to 6.0.1
- add committed v6.0.1 patch release notes and changelog
- allow stable patch hotfix releases without a fabricated same-version prerelease tag
