- Add unit tests for internal/buffer package
- Fix misleading "ring buffer" comment (it's a bounded FIFO queue)
- Remove unused BufferCapacity config field from both agents
- Rewrite flaky integration test to use polling instead of fixed sleeps
The isLoopback function in internal/hostagent/agent.go was unused in
production code - it was a duplicate of the same function in
internal/hostmetrics/collector.go which is actively used.
Removed the dead code along with its associated tests to reduce
maintenance burden and improve code clarity.
Test normalisePlatform (darwin->macos normalization, case handling,
whitespace trimming) and isLoopback (case-insensitive flag matching).
Package had no tests previously.
Issues found during scenario testing:
1. Version propagation: The hostagent and dockeragent packages were
reporting their own Version (0.1.0-dev) instead of the unified
agent's version. Added AgentVersion config field to pass the
parent's version down.
2. macOS legacy cleanup: The install.sh script was missing cleanup
for pulse-docker-agent on macOS.
3. Windows legacy cleanup: The install.ps1 script was missing cleanup
for legacy PulseHostAgent and PulseDockerAgent services.
These fixes ensure:
- Unified agent reports consistent version across host/docker metrics
- Legacy agents are properly removed on all platforms during upgrade
- Users migrating from legacy agents get a clean transition
Add seamless migration path from legacy agents to unified agent:
- Add AgentType field to report payloads (unified vs legacy detection)
- Update server to detect legacy agents by type instead of version
- Add UI banner showing upgrade command when legacy agents are detected
- Add deprecation notice to install-host-agent.ps1
- Create install-docker-agent.sh stub that redirects to unified installer
Legacy agents (pulse-host-agent, pulse-docker-agent) now show a "Legacy"
badge in the UI with a one-click copy command to upgrade to the unified
agent.
Implements comprehensive mdadm RAID array monitoring for Linux hosts
via pulse-host-agent. Arrays are automatically detected and monitored
with real-time status updates, rebuild progress tracking, and automatic
alerting for degraded or failed arrays.
Key changes:
**Backend:**
- Add mdadm package for parsing mdadm --detail output
- Extend host agent report structure with RAID array data
- Integrate mdadm collection into host agent (Linux-only, best-effort)
- Add RAID array processing in monitoring system
- Implement automatic alerting:
- Critical alerts for degraded arrays or arrays with failed devices
- Warning alerts for rebuilding/resyncing arrays with progress tracking
- Auto-clear alerts when arrays return to healthy state
**Frontend:**
- Add TypeScript types for RAID arrays and devices
- Display RAID arrays in host details drawer with:
- Array status (clean/degraded/recovering) with color-coded indicators
- Device counts (active/total/failed/spare)
- Rebuild progress percentage and speed when applicable
- Green for healthy, amber for rebuilding, red for degraded
**Documentation:**
- Document mdadm monitoring feature in HOST_AGENT.md
- Explain requirements (Linux, mdadm installed, root access)
- Clarify scope (software RAID only, hardware RAID not supported)
**Testing:**
- Add comprehensive tests for mdadm output parsing
- Test parsing of healthy, degraded, and rebuilding arrays
- Verify proper extraction of device states and rebuild progress
All builds pass successfully. RAID monitoring is automatic and best-effort
- if mdadm is not installed or no arrays exist, host agent continues
reporting other metrics normally.

The temperature collection in pulse-host-agent was broken on all Linux
distributions due to an incorrect platform check.
Root cause:
- collectTemperatures() checked `if a.platform != "linux"` at agent.go:316
- normalisePlatform() returns the raw distro name from gopsutil (debian, ubuntu, pve)
- This caused temperature collection to be skipped on ALL Linux hosts
Fix:
- Changed check to `if runtime.GOOS != "linux"` which correctly identifies Linux
- runtime.GOOS returns "linux" regardless of distribution
Also fixed documentation typo:
- Changed "Servers tab" to "Hosts tab" in HOST_AGENT.md and TEMPERATURE_MONITORING.md
- Reported by user in issue #661 comments
Testing:
- Verified build succeeds
- Confirmed runtime.GOOS returns "linux" on Linux systems

Implements temperature monitoring in pulse-host-agent to support Docker-in-VM
deployments where the sensor proxy socket cannot cross VM boundaries.
Changes:
- Create internal/sensors package with local collection and parsing
- Add temperature collection to host agent (Linux only, best-effort)
- Support CPU package/core, NVMe, and GPU temperature sensors
- Update TEMPERATURE_MONITORING.md with Docker-in-VM setup instructions
- Update HOST_AGENT.md to document temperature feature
The host agent now automatically collects temperature data on Linux systems
with lm-sensors installed. This provides an alternative path for temperature
monitoring when running Pulse in a VM, avoiding the unix socket limitation.
Temperature collection is best-effort and fails gracefully if lm-sensors is
not available, ensuring other metrics continue to be reported.

Windows Host Agent Enhancements:
- Implement native Windows service support using golang.org/x/sys/windows/svc
- Add Windows Event Log integration for troubleshooting
- Create professional PowerShell installation/uninstallation scripts
- Add process termination and retry logic to handle Windows file locking
- Register uninstall endpoint at /uninstall-host-agent.ps1
Host Agent UI Improvements:
- Add expandable drawer to Hosts page (click row to view details)
- Display system info, network interfaces, disks, and temperatures in cards
- Replace status badges with subtle colored indicators
- Remove redundant master-detail sidebar layout
- Add search filtering for hosts
Technical Details:
- service_windows.go: Windows service lifecycle management with graceful shutdown
- service_stub.go: Cross-platform compatibility for non-Windows builds
- install-host-agent.ps1: Full Windows installation with validation
- uninstall-host-agent.ps1: Clean removal with process termination and retries
- HostsOverview.tsx: Expandable row pattern matching Docker/Proxmox pages
Files Added:
- cmd/pulse-host-agent/service_windows.go
- cmd/pulse-host-agent/service_stub.go
- scripts/install-host-agent.ps1
- scripts/uninstall-host-agent.ps1
- frontend-modern/src/components/Hosts/HostsOverview.tsx
- frontend-modern/src/components/Hosts/HostsFilter.tsx
The Windows service now starts reliably with automatic restart on failure,
and the uninstall script handles file locking gracefully without requiring reboots.
Introduces granular permission scopes for API tokens (docker:report, docker:manage, host-agent:report, monitoring:read/write, settings:read/write) allowing tokens to be restricted to minimum required access. Legacy tokens default to full access until scopes are explicitly configured.
Adds standalone host agent for monitoring Linux, macOS, and Windows servers outside Proxmox/Docker estates. New Servers workspace in UI displays uptime, OS metadata, and capacity metrics from enrolled agents.
Includes comprehensive token management UI overhaul with scope presets, inline editing, and visual scope indicators.
