Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 3fea39feb9 Show a Hugging Face repository's model card on the mirror page
Opening a repository shows its model card, rendered from markdown, with
its base model, license and languages above it; the listing names each
repository's base model and license under its name. The card is a
stranger's text: raw HTML and dangerous links are dropped, images are
shown as links rather than loaded, and relative links point into the
repository.

Adds github.com/yuin/goldmark for the markdown.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 02fa639657 Open the mirror's registry on what is current, not an empty search box
The mirror page lists Hugging Face's trending models without anything
typed, with views for what is new this month and what is most
downloaded, filters for task and size, and each repository's parameter
count, architecture, context length and age from one registry call.
"Only what these nodes can run" is on by default and leaves out
architectures the nodes' llama.cpp cannot load, and adapters, saying how
many it hid. Listings are remembered for ten minutes.

The stylesheet is now linked by a hash of its content. It is cached for
a day, so under a fixed name a deploy's new styles reached people a day
after its markup.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 5aa5675a9c Show a model loading in the chat, and send once it is up
A message to a model that was not running waited 45 seconds and came
back as "the model is loading; retry shortly". The page now asks for
the model with /chat/wake, shows where it stands from
/chat/model-status - waiting for a node, downloading with bytes and a
percentage, starting the engine - and sends the message when it answers.

Also passes the nodes' llama.cpp build to the pages, which the mirror's
checks for loadable weights needed and were never given.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 f13b18149a Refuse weights the nodes' llama.cpp cannot load, before fetching them
kev-0.5b declared architecture "ggmlc", which llama.cpp does not know.
It was fetched, catalogued and placed, and failed on every node — while
the answer was in the first kilobytes of the file.

internal/gguf reads a GGUF header (v1-v3) up to general.architecture,
over HTTP with a Range request, and judges it against the architectures
llama.cpp b10991 lists in LLM_ARCH_NAMES (152, copied from the source at
that tag); a vision projector is not a model on its own. An unknown
build is not refused, only not vouched for, and a header that cannot be
fetched does not refuse anything.

Checked in three places: the registry listing (from the architecture
Hugging Face reports with expand[]=gguf, so one request per repository)
shows it and withholds the fetch button; a fetch reads the header and
refuses unless "fetch anyway"; and the model service refuses to add
such a model, which covers the serve form and ctl model add.

Tried on real files: the mirror's qwen2.5-1.5b (qwen2) and bge-m3
(bert), and Qwen2.5-0.5B on Hugging Face through its redirect.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 c609805e4b Line up how each mirrored model runs
The run mode sat after a tag repeating the model's name, so each selector started where the name ended and long names wrapped the row. The column is now Runs: one fixed-width selector per model, with the catalog's name above it only when it differs from the mirror's. Sizes no longer wrap.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 bf94cd1667 Set how a model runs from the mirror page
Every mirrored version was in use on the cluster, so the serve link — hidden for a version already served — appeared nowhere, and changing a model between always on and on demand needed the CLI. Each model using a file now shows how it runs and offers always on, on demand (15 minutes idle) or stopped, through the model service's Scale; models declared in server.yaml show their mode and where to change it. The serve form asks the same question.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 d8cefd8b21 Say there are no organizations rather than 404
With every organization removed, /org answered an administrator with a 404 while the menu kept offering it. An administrator now gets a page saying there are none and where to make one, and the menu offers Organizations only when there is one to show (to a manager, one they manage).

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 e493b2f53d Give an organization's managers a page of their own
A member of an organization can be its manager (users join --org X
--role manager, or the star on the people page). /org shows a manager
their organization: usage over time by team, project or person, its
teams and projects with limits and 30-day spend, and its members, each
once with every place they belong. Read-only; administrators see every
organization. Only what was spent in the organization's projects is
shown — UsageBucketsIn filters by where a request was spent.

Found on the way:
- Usage by org, team and project, and the quotas page's spend, joined
  through api_keys and so dropped every chat-page request, which has no
  key row. They now read usage.project_id; keys no longer move between
  projects, so the two agree.
- /org was not exempt from API-key auth and answered browsers with a
  JSON error. A router test now drives the session pages through the
  middleware; it fails without the fix.

Membership queries, org-scoped usage and the reworked joins pass the
PostgreSQL store tests on 16.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 098886e0e4 Let a person belong to many places, or to none
A person was in exactly one project, chosen at approval, and could not
use the gateway before that. People belong to several teams and to
none, so:

- memberships: a person is a member of any number of organizations,
  teams and projects, or of none; a member of a team or organization
  may use every project in it. users join/leave, and the people page
  adds and takes out from either side. Approval no longer needs a
  project.
- personal keys: a key may have an owner and no project. /profile asks
  what a new key spends against; keys create --for does the same.
  auth.personal sets default limits for personal use or turns it off.
- limits for people: --scope user holds a person across every key,
  project and the chat page; --per-member on an org, team or project
  gives each member their own share there. Resolution folds the tree,
  each per-member limit for the key's owner, and the owner's own, each
  in its own pool; the quotas page shows and sets both.
- the chat page asks what to spend against and checks it per message.
- usage records who spent it, so a person's budget survives a restart,
  personal use and chat included; restore no longer drops rows with no
  project.

Leaving a project revokes the keys made there unless another membership
still reaches it. A personal key keeps no threads or notes, which are
per project, and is refused rather than dropped into the anonymous pool.

Migration 0010 turns each person's project into a membership, adds
usage.user_id and backfills it, and makes api_keys.project_id nullable.
SQLite cannot drop NOT NULL, so the table is rebuilt; that needs foreign
keys off, which only works outside a transaction, so migrations marked
for it run on one connection with foreign_key_check before commit.
Tested on a populated SQLite store with claims, and on a copy of the
cluster's PostgreSQL store: 5 people became members, 17 keys and 3
claims intact, 145 of 577 usage rows and all 69 chat rows attributed.
The PostgreSQL store tests, including new membership cases, pass on 16.

users move is gone; join and leave replace it.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 429c05a319 Show on the quotas page the limits that actually apply
A branch with no limit of its own read "—" in every column while its
organization held it to sixty requests a minute. Each cell now shows
the strictest value from above, muted and marked with an arrow, naming
its source on hover and in the form's placeholders. A larger value set
under a stricter one says what caps it, for rate and token limits as
well as budgets; only budgets were checked before.

The table follows the people page: indented tree, tinted organizations,
spend with a meter that turns red past 90%, a form that opens and saves
without reloading (htmx, falling back to plain links), and the
explanations folded under "How limits combine".

Rows are built from the store's Tree, so a project sits under its team
by id. Matching the start of its path put projects under the wrong team
when two organizations shared a name.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 c1926be869 Tidy the dashboard and the forms around it
- Numeric column headers are right-aligned like their values; the
  stylesheet only aligned the cells, so "REQUESTS" sat nowhere near its
  numbers in every table that has them.
- Ranked bars are an HTML grid instead of a fixed-width SVG: the value
  had 96 units and "34.2k tok  114 req" did not fit, so the figure a
  reader came for was the one cut off. Labels ellipsise in CSS and give
  their full text on hover.
- Mean latency reads as 5 ms, 8.8 s or 1m 51s rather than 110695 ms.
- The "What the cluster is doing" charts sat between the Models heading
  and the models table; they now come before it.
- A fleet without GPUs shows its CPU capacity — nodes ready, memory,
  disk free for weights — instead of "No GPUs have been reported", and
  a node with no GPUs shows "—" rather than 0/0.
- The profile's forms are a form's width rather than the page's, and
  the quotas page's price warning is a boxed banner rather than a line
  of red text.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 5e1494f76d Give the menu the new token after a password change
The profile page rendered after a password change carries the CSRF
token set on that same response, but the menu's sign-out form was left
without one — and it is the first form on the page. The e2e test that
signs in, changes the password and uses the next form caught it.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 c9cd25efc2 Draw one menu on every page
Each page wrote its own nav: the same links in a different order, some
missing, the current page sometimes listed and sometimes not. A shared
"nav" template now draws it everywhere — Cluster, People, Quotas, Usage,
Mirror for an administrator, then Chat, Your keys and Sign out — with
the current page marked by aria-current. Pages rendered outside the
account pages (the dashboard, node logs) get it through the request
context their admin wrapper sets. The admin listener's own page keeps
its metrics/pprof/api links.

The chat and key pages said "project proj-3kq7…"; they now show the
project's path, and the key page no longer repeats the email.

A test renders several admin pages and requires the same menu on each.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 75d69a6b9c Show the mirror one line per model version
Each held file took two table rows — seven columns and its address
beneath — so one sharded model filled the screen. A version is now one
line: model and version, the file or "N files", total size, and the
catalog models that use it. The address is behind a "copy address"
button (a set's is its directory, trailing slash included) and the
checksum is in the file's tooltip.

The model service reports which models name each source, so a file in
use shows who uses it and is not offered for serving a second time;
removing one warns that the catalog uses it. Downloads and failures
stay one line per file, since each has its own progress or retry. The
header counts versions, not files, and the nav calls /admin/users
"people" everywhere.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 3104f4b706 Manage people and the tenancy tree, from the web and the CLI
Nothing in the tree could be renamed, moved or removed, and an approved
person stayed in the project they were first put in — from the web or
the CLI. Now:

- /admin/users is the tree, each project opening onto its people and
  keys, with approve, move, suspend, reinstate and remove for people,
  revoke for keys, and add, rename, move and remove at every level,
  plus a search over every account. Forms post and get the page back,
  so it works with no script; htmx 2.0.11 (0BSD, embedded, checked
  against npm's integrity hash) swaps only the changed part, keeping
  open projects open.
- llmgw org tree/add/rename/move/remove, users move/delete, and
  keys list --all.
- Projects, teams and organizations are named by id, path
  (Acme/platform/gateway) or unique name; users by id or email. With a
  single project --project can be left out, instead of defaulting to
  "default", which a tree built from the web does not have.

Moving a person moves the keys they made; operator keys stay with the
project. Only empty things are removed, and never a project that had a
key, since usage history refers to it.

Also: keys init no longer reparents an existing team or project;
reinstating an account with no project is refused (a rejected signup
used to come back active and fail at its first key); rejecting a
signup removes it; keys limits --budget takes whole units like the
quotas page.

Checked in headless Chrome: a move from an open project updates the
page in place, keeps the project open, and the search still filters.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 33e678ab84 Show a node's logs on the admin page
Seeing what a node did meant ssh through a jump host, to a machine whose
address nobody remembers, to read a journal only root may open. When an
engine install failed on a new node today, the reason was one line — and it
was four steps away from the page that said the install had failed.

Each node's row on the cluster page now links to its logs: the agent's own,
and every engine running there, chosen from the list the node itself sends.
The page can follow, refreshing every five seconds, and is on both the admin
listener and /admin. `llmgw ctl logs NODE [--source SHARD] [-n N]` reads the
same.

They travel over the stream the agent already holds, so they need nothing
the control plane does not already have: a request goes down, the lines come
back, and a reply that does not come in ten seconds is an agent too old to
answer. The agent keeps its last 2000 lines in memory as well as writing them
wherever it did before; the engines' last few hundred lines were already kept
and sent only when one crashed.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 7d97c6b74f Install a node's engines on the node, instead of trusting what is there
A node ran whatever llama-server somebody had once unpacked on it. Onboarding
checked an engine only when told its path, installed none, and a node with
nothing on it registered as ready. The one time that went wrong it went wrong
invisibly: the binary was there, executable, and could not start for want of
libgomp1, while the node reported healthy.

The control plane now says which engines every node has, at which version —
`engines:` in server.yaml, defaulting to the llama.cpp build this release was
checked against — and each agent converges on it. What only the node can
know, the node works out: the build for its processor and driver (CUDA with
its runtime when an NVIDIA driver is loaded, CPU otherwise), the OS packages
that build needs from its own package sources, and whether the result runs.
Every archive is checked against the sha256 GitHub publishes for it and
unpacked refusing any path or link that leaves the install directory. ldd
names a missing library outright; running `--version` proves the rest. Only
then is a directory marked installed, and it is checked again every ten
minutes, because an unrelated upgrade can remove a library.

An engine is reported only once installed and seen to run, or when the
agent's configuration names it on purpose — never because something happened
to be on PATH. The agent now says when it has probed, so an empty list means
"has none" rather than "too old to say": a node rebuilt from nothing is no
longer a candidate for every model at the moment it can run none of them.
Placement's refusal carries the node's own words, "installing: downloading
llama-b10991-bin-ubuntu-x64.tar.gz (16 MB)", and so do `ctl nodes` and the
cluster page, along with a warning for a CPU without AVX2 — the VM CPU type
that makes everything five times slower and nothing look wrong.

Agents also report their OS, architecture, vector extensions and NVIDIA
driver. Onboarding installs llmgw itself from the CI release for the node's
architecture, checked against the release's checksums, rather than copying
whatever binary the operator's machine had.

vLLM and SGLang are not installed yet: they are Python environments of
several gigabytes, not an archive, and still have to be named in the agent's
configuration.

Also fixes a race on the weights fingerprint, which two heartbeat loops touch
during a failover.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5.5 2cae92d113 Offer a model that loads on demand in the chat picker
The picker listed what had an endpoint, and a model at min 0 has none until
somebody asks for it. On this page a message is the asking, so an on-demand
model could never be started from here: mistral-nemo-12b-instruct sat in the
catalog, served by nothing, and absent from the one place someone went to
try it.

Such a model is now offered, marked "not loaded", with a note saying the
first message fetches the weights and starts the engine, and that until it
is up the reply is "the model is loading". A model stopped outright — max 0 —
is still left out, because nothing would load it and offering it would only
produce an error.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 07809490e3 Show usage over time, per organization, team, project and person
CI / test (push) Has been cancelled
Usage could be read as a total — per key, per user, per model, per group —
and the cluster's own charts covered the fleet's hardware. What nobody could
see was when a group used it. "Research doubled its traffic three weeks ago"
is not a question a column of totals can be asked, and it is the question
somebody asks before a quota conversation.

/admin/usage draws requests, tokens and spend over a chosen window, grouped
by any level of the tenancy tree or by person. Person is not a level of that
tree — one person holds keys in several projects — so the grouping is its
own type rather than store.Scope with a fourth value nothing else could use.

Three things learned from the charts already here. Buckets are gap-filled
per group, because a line drawn straight across an absence claims traffic
that did not happen, and because the chart sums its tail by timestamp and
can only do that if every series shares a clock. Series are ranked by total
rather than by peak — a counter's question is "who used the most", and
ranking by peak would colour the team that made one burst over the team that
ran steadily all week. And the spend chart is replaced by a sentence when no
model has a price, rather than drawn flat along the bottom.

The bucket query groups by ordinal and was planned against the cluster's
PostgreSQL before being believed, with a test alongside the others that run
there: three reports have shipped working on SQLite and failing on it.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 40f5c930c4 Say when a replica is running an edited profile, and check a source from the web too
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m43s
Two defects, both of the same kind: something the CLI knew and the rest of
the system did not.

A profile can be edited while a replica is running against the old one. The
reconciler deliberately leaves it alone — churning a replica that is serving
costs more than the imperfection — but there was no way to see it, so the
cluster could disagree with its own configuration indefinitely and read as
healthy. Profile now carries a fingerprint, a replica records the one it was
placed with, and both the API and `ctl replicas` say "stale profile" when
they differ. An empty fingerprint is not stale: it means a replica adopted
from an older agent, which is unknown rather than wrong.

Adding a model from the admin page skipped the source check `ctl model add`
has done all along, so a typo or a mirror that is down became a replica
failing on a node minutes later, with an error naming the node. The check
moves out of the CLI into a package both use.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 832d0a652c Say when a budget cannot be spent against
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m45s
A team was given a budget of a million, the quota page showed it, and after
sixty requests it read zero percent used. Not because the counting was wrong:
cost comes from a price table, no model had a price, and every request
therefore cost nothing. The number was a limit in appearance and bound on
nothing.

An empty price table is the ordinary case — self-hosted models have no
per-token price, which the schema already says. Showing somebody a budget
without mentioning it is not.

The page says so, and says it precisely: rate and token limits are unaffected,
because they count requests and tokens rather than money. A warning that read
as "no quota works here" would be worse than the silence it replaces — those
two were enforcing perfectly well, as twenty served and ten refused had just
shown.

AnythingPriced is on the accountant rather than the price table, because what a
caller is asking is whether the budgets it is about to display mean anything,
and the accountant is what would enforce them. A model priced at zero is not
priced; a fallback price prices everything.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 dfbb7557dd Serve a model made of several files
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m42s
The mirror would happily hold a four-shard model that nothing could serve. A
catalog entry names one source, the agent fetched one URL, and so a version of
several files had no way to be described — which is every safetensors model,
and every GGUF too large to ship whole.

A source ending in a slash names a version rather than a file. The agent fetches
every file in it into one directory and hands the engine the directory: vLLM
reads the shards and the config out of the folder, and llama.cpp is given the
first part and finds the rest beside it.

The trailing slash is the whole signal. A flag beside the source would be a
second place for the two to disagree, and a URL already distinguishes a
directory from a file everywhere else.

The mirror answers a version with a manifest instead of a file listing. A plain
file server gives HTML there, and something that has to know what a version
consists of would be left parsing it. It is on the byte listener, not the
management API: fetching weights is the one thing every node does, and making
it depend on the administrative port would undo the split that keeps that port
closeable.

Built from the directory rather than a file written beside it. A manifest on
disk is a second record of what is there, and the two disagree the first time
somebody copies a file in by hand — which the mirror explicitly allows.

The whole set or nothing. A directory with three of four shards loads as a
broken model rather than failing to load, so a completion marker is written
last and an interrupted fetch starts the missing files again rather than being
found and served. Files already there at the right size are not fetched twice.

Progress is reported under the version's address, not each file's: the shards
waiting on it asked for the version, and progress under a file's own URL
reaches nobody.

A filename from the manifest is refused if it contains a separator. The mirror
is a place an operator copies files into by hand, so what it reports is not
automatically safe to join onto a path.

An HTML listing where a manifest was expected says so. "invalid character '<'"
sends somebody looking at the wrong thing.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 c6df0659af Put the cluster's own charts on its own admin page
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m50s
The dashboard charted what the cluster had been billed for — requests, tokens,
spend, all from llmgw's own store — and nothing about whether it was healthy.
Saturation, queue depth, cache occupancy and replica counts were numbers in a
table at the instant the page loaded, with no way to see that one of them had
been climbing for an hour.

Four line charts now, read back from wherever the metrics were scraped to.

Read back rather than kept twice. llmgw publishes these already; what a gauge
cannot do is remember, and a ring buffer in this process would be a rival copy
of the same numbers with its own retention, lost on every restart and
disagreeing with the one an operator has on screen elsewhere. monitoring.prometheus
is empty by default and the panels are then absent rather than empty.

One axis per chart, always. Two measures of different scale belong in two
charts: a second y-axis lets any two lines be made to cross wherever the author
likes and the reader cannot tell it happened.

Four colours, handed out in fixed order, never cycled. A fifth series is summed
into "other" and drawn in grey — dropping it would make a chart that does not
add up, and inventing a hue for it would put two lines on the page that nobody
can tell apart. The fold is by timestamp, not by position: the tail's series do
not share sample times, and adding them by index slides points sideways onto
each other's clock.

A legend for every chart with more than one line, because colour alone is not
an encoding a reader can rely on.

A flat zero is drawn along the bottom rather than left blank: nothing happening
is a real answer, and an empty frame reads as a broken chart. A single sample
is not a line and says so instead of putting a dot in the corner.

One failed query fails all four panels. Three drawn and one blank invites
reading the blank one as "nothing is happening there".

NaN is dropped rather than plotted. Prometheus sends it as a string for a
sample it has no value for, Go's ParseFloat accepts it happily, and one NaN
coordinate is an SVG path that does not draw at all — taking the rest of the
line with it.

Axis maxima are rounded to a number a person would pick. An axis topping out at
0.8347 makes every gridline unreadable, and the shape is what a chart is for.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 d998ea7ef5 Let a model say what it is for
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m42s
A gateway serving nine models offered nine names and nothing to choose between
them. /v1/models is the only view most clients ever have, and it listed ids.

Models carry a description now: written when the model is added, shown on the
dashboard and sent to clients in /v1/models.

Written rather than derived. A registry offers a pipeline tag and a wall of
README, and neither answers the question somebody picking from a list is
asking — which of these should I send this request to. "General chat, strong
Swedish; slower than the 8B" is not in any metadata field.

It is optional, and absent means absent rather than an empty string in the
response: a model nobody described should read as undescribed, not as described
with nothing.

On the dashboard it sits under its row rather than in a column. A sentence in a
table cell either wraps every other column into a stripe or gets cut off.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 e0ea4f6be9 Fill in the memory a model needs, instead of leaving the field blank
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m41s
Serving a model from the mirror page left "Needs RAM (GB)" optional and empty.
Empty writes no constraint, and a CPU profile has no card to be short of, so
every ready node became a candidate — and a 4.68 GB model went onto a 7.9 GB
machine and left it 3.5 GB for a KV pool. Placement was not wrong; it was never
told what the model needed.

The mirror knows the size of the weights, so the field arrives filled in:
weights plus half again for the KV pool, plus two for the engine. The half is
there because the cache grows with the same things the weights do, layers and
heads. It is an estimate and the field is still editable — what it is not is
blank.

A 1.12 GB model asks for 3 GB, so the small nodes stay usable. Pinning every
model to the one large machine would be a different way of getting placement
wrong.

An unknown size fills in nothing rather than the floor of two, which would
exclude no node while reading as though somebody had measured it.

And when the estimate is larger than any node in the fleet, the page says so,
with the largest node's memory. Better read there than discovered by a node
being OOM-killed twenty minutes into a load.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 2acd794022 Stop placing engines on nodes that do not have them
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m42s
A node's registry holds an adapter for every engine whether or not its binary
exists, the agent never said which were installed, and placement carried an
Engine field it had never once read. So a vLLM replica was as happily placed on
a node with no vLLM: the node registered healthy, the shard failed minutes
later with "executable file not found" in the engine's own words, and the
reconciler tried again.

That is how fifteen gigabytes of safetensors reached this cluster's mirror
before anybody noticed it had no card and no vLLM to run them with.

Agents now probe what is installed and report it — the protocol has carried
engine_versions since it was written and nothing ever filled it in. Placement
filters on the key set, `ctl nodes` has a column, and the mirror page's serve
warning is a fact instead of a guess about cards, which would have waved
through a fleet of eight-GPU nodes that never had vLLM.

Probing resolves binaries and runs none of them. The first version asked each
engine for --version, which is fine for an engine and not fine for the wrapper
scripts people put in front of one: a script that shifts past flags it does not
recognise and then execs the server will start an inference server, at agent
startup, on every node. The agent's own test suite installs exactly such a
script and caught it. So presence is a path lookup, and the version is left to
`ctl engine-check`, which is run by somebody who meant to run the engine.

SGLang is the exception and has to execute, because a module has no path to
look up — but the command is llmgw's own one-line import rather than the
engine's launcher. Its exit code is the answer: python3 is on almost every
machine, and treating a failed import as "installed" reported SGLang on every
node in a fleet that had none, which is the failure being fixed, inverted.

Probed once, not per reconnect, and bounded by the context that registration
waits on: an agent that cannot reach the control plane is worse than one
reporting an incomplete list.

A node that reports no engines at all is not excluded anywhere — by placement,
or by the page. That is what every agent older than this reports, and emptying
a fleet on a control plane upgrade is a worse failure than the one being fixed.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 e034862b79 Serve a mirrored model from the list, instead of writing YAML for it
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m35s
Fetching a model put it on the mirror and left the operator to hand-write a
catalogue entry and run `ctl model add` on the control plane — for a source the
page was already displaying, with an engine decided by the file extension it
had just shown them.

A present row now offers to serve it. The form opens on that row with the name,
the mirror's own URL and the engine filled in, and asks for the two things
nobody can infer: the context pool and how many replicas.

What it refuses is the point.

A version of several files is refused with the reason. A catalogue entry names
one source, so an entry for a sharded model is an entry for one shard, which
loads as a broken model rather than failing to load. Nothing said so before —
the mirror happily holds a four-shard model that no catalogue entry can
describe.

Safetensors on a fleet with no GPU is warned about before anything is added.
This is the failure we hit today: fifteen gigabytes of shards arrived, and only
then did looking at a node show no card, no vLLM and no SGLang. The control
plane is not told which engines a node has installed, so the check is on cards,
which it does know — a warning rather than a refusal, because a card can be
added tomorrow.

A name already declared in configuration is refused here too, matching what the
model service would say anyway, but before the form is filled in rather than
after.

Without a store there is no serve action at all: a model added at runtime would
not survive a restart, and offering it then refusing is worse than not offering.

The mirror page's dependencies became a struct. Three are optional interfaces
and two are the same shape, which at a call site is a swap nobody notices until
a page shows the wrong thing.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 a588646b7c Fetch a sharded model in one action, not one shard at a time
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m39s
The explorer listed every weight file with its own button. For a repository of
alternatives that is right — q4_k_m or q8_0, you want one — and for a sharded
model it is fifteen clicks to fetch one thing, with nothing stopping you from
losing count and leaving a version with fourteen of its parts.

Files are grouped into sets now. A run of "-00002-of-00004" is one row and one
button; everything else stays its own row.

Not "fetch all the weights", which would be wrong half the time: two safetensors
files are halves of one thing and useless apart, two GGUF files are usually
alternatives and fetching both spends gigabytes on a copy nobody asked for. The
set is the unit that is whole.

A repository can hold both the split and the joined copy of the same
quantisation — the real Qwen coder repos do — so a shard set keeps the -of-
notation in its name rather than collapsing onto the name of the whole file
beside it.

A set publishes no single checksum. Several files have several, and showing one
of them invites comparing it against the wrong thing.

The form posts every source in the set, and a failure part way says how many
already started: a set that fails on its fourth shard has three arriving, and
reading that as "nothing happened" sends somebody to fetch them all again.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 ed530133b6 Find a model in the registry instead of pasting a URL into a box
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m41s
Mirroring anything meant knowing a repository existed, knowing which of its
thirty files were the weights, and assembling a resolve URL by hand. The mirror
page had a text box for that URL and no way to find one.

It now searches Hugging Face and lists a repository's weight files with their
sizes and published checksums, each with a button that fills the fetch form.

Only weight files. A repository is mostly a README and a tokenizer, and listing
those buries the four entries somebody came for.

The size shown is the LFS size, not the plain one. For an LFS-stored file —
every weights file — the plain field is the size of the pointer, so the other
one reports a gigabyte model as 133 bytes, and that is the number somebody
would then plan disk against.

The source URL is pinned to the commit the listing came from rather than to a
branch, so what the mirror fetches is what was on screen. A repository
re-uploaded under the same branch otherwise leaves two different sets of
weights with identical provenance and no way to tell them apart. The version
defaults to that revision for the same reason.

The registry's own failures are reported on their own line. It is somebody
else's server on the other side of the internet, and it being down says nothing
about the mirror — which is what the page is for and has to keep working
regardless. With no registry configured there is no search box at all, rather
than one that can only time out.

Gating decodes from a bool or a string, because the field is documented as the
first and is the second in practice: strict decoding fails the whole response,
so one gated model would hide the other nineteen in a page of results.

And a bug this made obvious: downloads were keyed by model and version, so the
second shard of a sharded model was refused as "already fetching" until the
first had finished. A fifteen-shard model had to be pulled one file at a time,
each waiting on the last. Keyed by file now — which is what the single-flight
was ever protecting, since the race is two writers on one .part. A version made
of several files reports as the worst of them: it is not present until every
shard is, and one shard failing makes the version unusable however many others
arrived.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 5726252825 Open the quota form on the branch, instead of asking which branch again
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m44s
The tree was rendered and then, underneath it, a form with a dropdown asking
which of those rows you meant. The tree already said. Picking a branch, reading
its current numbers, scrolling past the tree and selecting the same branch from
a list is three steps to do one thing, and two of them are a chance to pick the
wrong row.

A quota belongs to a branch, so the form opens on it: each row links to
?edit=scope:id, that row renders its form inline, pre-filled with what is set
there now and naming the branch in full.

By link rather than by disclosure on every row: a collapsed form per branch
would put a form in the markup for every group on a page whose job is to be
read as a tree. One is open at a time, and the rest keep their link.

Clearing moved into that form as a second submit, so a row that is not being
edited has one control and not two.

Saving closes it. Re-rendering the form over the row it just changed hides the
result and invites submitting the same thing twice.

The note about a quota being shared came out of the footer: the open form says
it, at the point where somebody is about to do it.

The dropdown's parsing went with it rather than being left unreachable.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 55262418c9 Put quotas somewhere they can be seen and changed
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m35s
A quota could be enforced and reported, and set nowhere but a shell. Nothing in
the browser showed one at all — not what a team may spend, not what it has
spent, not that it had no limit. In practice that means quotas nobody sets.

/admin/quotas lists the whole tree, whether or not a group has a limit: the one
without a quota is the one most likely to need one, so it cannot be the row the
page leaves out. Spend over the last thirty days sits beside the budget, with
the fraction used.

Setting a quota here is a change of position. It was kept to the shell because
raising a budget is a financial act and a stolen admin session should not
perform one. That argument holds for exactly one row on this page: resolution
takes the most restrictive value along the chain, so raising a team's or a
project's limit cannot exceed what the organization allows. Only an
organization's own limit is bounded by nothing. Every change is logged with who
made it and what it was before.

Per-key limits stay on the CLI. A key belongs to a person and is already
bounded by its project; letting an admin session reach individual keys would
put every caller's throughput one click away, and the page refuses a key scope
rather than rendering it and failing later.

A limit an ancestor already caps lower is marked as written-but-unreachable.
Resolution means a project given more than its team is not a bigger budget, it
is a number nobody will reach — and without saying so the page would show it as
though it applied, with the first sign being a refusal that disagrees with the
screen.

The group is chosen, not typed. Ids became random in the previous commit so two
organizations could both have a "platform" team, which also made them
impossible to remember and a typo impossible to notice: it would write a quota
onto nothing and report success.

A blank field is no limit of that kind, not zero — zero is a limit of nothing,
which refuses every request. Clearing removes the row rather than writing nulls
across it: both resolve the same, only one tells a reader nobody has set a limit
here.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 fc1b47976d Let an admin build the tenancy tree, instead of sending them to a shell
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m35s
An account is approved into a project, a project belongs to a team, a team to
an organization — and until now the only way to make any of them was `llmgw
keys init` on the control plane. So the first thing to do after installing was
leave the interface you were already in, and an approval form with an empty
dropdown gave no hint why.

The accounts page now creates all three.

Creating a container is not granting access: nobody can use one until an
account is approved into it, which is the step already on this page. Quotas stay
on the CLI. Making somewhere to put people is structural; raising what they may
spend is financial, and a stolen admin session should be able to do the first
and not the second.

Ids are random now instead of slugs of the name, which fixes a bug that only
appears when you have a second organization — which is exactly what this
feature invites. Team ids were slugs in one flat namespace and PutTeam upserts
on id, so creating "platform" under a second organization moved the first one's
team into it. Nothing failed. The team changed owner.

Create* is separate from Put* rather than replacing it. The upserts exist so
`keys init` can be re-run while provisioning a machine; a person filling in a
form means something else by a name that already exists, and gets told.

A duplicate is refused among siblings only. Two companies both having a
"platform" team is ordinary, and refusing the second would be the flat namespace
again wearing a better error message.

CI / test (push) Successful in 1m49s
/admin/mirror, behind the same admin session as the other admin pages. What is
held, what is arriving with its byte count, what failed and why; start a fetch,
retry a failed one, remove a version.

Not mounted at all without a mirror configured. The right page for a deployment
with no mirror is no page, rather than an empty one pointing at nothing.

It reloads itself only while something is downloading. A reload at any other
moment takes with it whatever is half-typed into the fetch form, and there is
nothing to watch when nothing is moving.

A failed row offers Retry, not Remove. A fetch that failed left nothing on disk,
so the remove could only answer "the mirror holds nothing for this" — a button
whose single outcome is a confusing error. Starting the same download again is
what somebody looking at that row wants, and the mirror allows it: only a
download still running is refused.

An unreachable mirror is said outright instead of rendering as an empty table.
The two look nearly identical and mean opposite things: one is a mirror waiting
to be filled, the other is a machine to go and look at.

Dashboard takes NavExtras rather than a second bool. Two adjacent booleans at a
call site get swapped silently and are discovered by somebody clicking the

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 753f4e3265 Let a node say how much room it has left
CI / test (push) Failing after 1m31s
Disk was the one resource nothing reported. `statfs` was already being called
on every model directory, but only to ask whether the filesystem was a network
one — the free space it returns in the same struct was thrown away. So the
only way to find out why a node was filling up was to ssh to it, which is what
this system exists to avoid.

Reported per filesystem rather than per configured directory. Free space
belongs to the disk, not the path: two model directories on one disk are one
pool of bytes, and counting them separately would let the control plane add
24 GB to 24 GB and place a 40 GB model on a node that has 24.

Shared filesystems are summed separately from local ones and left out of a
node's own total. Space on a filer belongs to everyone mounting it, so twenty
nodes would otherwise each report the same free terabyte, and a scheduler
would place twenty models into room for one.

Nothing reported means nothing is known, everywhere: an agent too old to send
storage and a node with no model directories both send nothing, and both must
read as unknown rather than as a full disk. `ctl nodes` and the dashboard show
a dash, the metric is absent rather than zero, and a missing directory — which
is what an unmounted filer looks like — is skipped rather than reported as
having no space.

Shown as free out of total, because the first is useless without the second:
8 GB free is comfortable on a 10 TB filer and nearly full on a 10 GB root
partition, and only the second stops a model being placed.

CI / test (push) Successful in 1m30s
It is the only page a stranger sees, and until they have a key it is the
whole product: a stack of headings and shell snippets said "internal tool
you probably should not be here".

Now it opens with what this is and a diagram of why it exists — one address,
many GPUs, fabrics that cannot see each other — then the base URL as a
headline rather than a line of prose with a colon in it, the route to a key
as three cards, and the client examples as tabs instead of a pile.

The tabs are radio buttons and a stylesheet. No JavaScript decides what is on
the page, so someone who arrives with scripting off still gets every example;
the only script is the copy buttons, which exist only where the clipboard API
does and so cannot leave a dead control behind.

The page says exactly what it said before, including that it lists no models
and why. The diagram names no model, no node and no count: fabrics are drawn
because llmgw keeps them apart, not because this install has two.

Tests cover the parts that are easy to break later: every example lives in
the page itself rather than being fetched per tab, the reflected base URL —
now in five places rather than one — still cannot write markup, and the
diagram carries a label for anyone not looking at it.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 f8bb78103f Stop the ranked charts from spilling over the tables below them
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m32s
The bars were wrapped in <div class="chart">, and .chart was already the
fixed-height box the time-series charts are drawn in: 120px, with a border
and a background. A chart that grows a row at a time does not fit in a cage,
so the SVG overflowed it and landed on the table underneath.

Renamed to .ranked, which is a wrapper rather than the mark itself, and
capped at the design width so a wide window scales the box instead of
inflating the 12px labels.

The test reads the class back out of the markup and checks the stylesheet
does not cap it, because the collision was invisible in both files on their
own — each rule was reasonable, and only the shared name was wrong.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 eb9e9b348c Show who is using the cluster and what they are running
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m28s
The dashboard could say what the cluster was made of and not who was
spending it. Usage was per key, which is the right unit for revoking
something and the wrong one for the question actually being asked: one
person holds a laptop key, a CI key and a notebook key, and adding three
rows up by eye is a chore that gets skipped.

Per person now, joined through the keys they own, and per model — counted
by the model that answered rather than the one requested, since those differ
whenever a fallback serves and what actually ran is the question. Headline
figures are stat tiles with a sparkline: a single current value is a number,
and plotting one is how a chart ends up with a single bar in it. The
sparkline says only rising, falling or flat, which is the one thing the
number cannot.

Ranked horizontal bars, because the labels are email addresses and model
names and the label is the point — the question is which person, not what
shape the distribution has. Rotated or truncated axis labels say the chart
matters more than reading it. Trimmed where drawn and complete on hover, so
the plot keeps its geometry and a reader can still find out whose row it is.

The palette is validated rather than chosen: every adjacent pair clears the
colour-vision separation threshold, and the dark values are the same hues
re-stepped for the dark surface instead of an automatic flip. Run through a
validator, because that is the only way anyone can honestly claim a palette
is colourblind-safe.

Which turned up a bug in the existing chart code. cssVar is an allowlist of
four names that silently returns --accent for anything else, and callers
wrap it in var() themselves — so every new series would have rendered in one
colour with accent-coloured text. Caught by a test written from the rule
that chart text wears text tokens, never the series colour.

A key with no owner is labelled "operator-issued keys" rather than unknown:
it predates accounts and is doing its job, and "unknown" would imply
something is wrong.

CI / test (push) Successful in 1m32s
The metrics were exported and the only way to look at them was to stand up
Prometheus beside the binary. For a project whose whole shape is one static
binary with no dependencies, that is the wrong default: the common case is
somebody wanting to know how full their cluster is, and that should not cost
a monitoring stack.

/admin now shows capacity per GPU class with a usage bar, free whole nodes
per fabric — the number that decides whether a replica spanning nodes can
land, since free cards on the wrong fabric are not capacity for a model that
needs this one — and which replicas are holding hardware nobody is asking
for. Nodes gain their memory and how many model files they can see.

Taken from the same Summary that ctl status uses rather than derived in the
page, because two implementations of the same arithmetic drift apart and the
one on the screen is the one people would believe.

A faulty card counts as neither used nor free, matching the scheduler.
Counting it free is how a cluster looks like it has room it does not, and a
page that disagreed with placement about that would be worse than no page.

Prometheus stays supported and is now the answer to a narrower question:
history, alerting, several clusters at once. The dashboard shows what is
true now and keeps nothing, which is the honest division between them.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 c174e46902 Read the filename from a path comment inside the block
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m35s
The commonest convention of all, and the one the extractor missed. Asked
for a two-file Go server, qwen2.5-coder-3b opened a plain ```go fence and
wrote "// cmd/server/main.go" as the first line of the file — not on the
fence, not above it. Both files downloaded as snippet-1.go and
snippet-2.go, which is the feature failing at the first real use of it.

Found by running it rather than by reading it: the unit tests covered the
conventions I had thought of, and passed throughout.

Only the first line or two, only when the line is a comment holding one
token that looks like a path. "// this reads config.json at startup" is a
sentence, "// Package main implements the server." is a doc comment, and a
path comment further down the file is just a comment. The markers cover the
languages people actually ask for, including block comments closed on the
same line.

The comment stays in the body. People write a path at the top of a file
anyway, and editing model output to make a filename look tidier is a
surprise nobody asked for.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 45d0dee470 Let a reply full of code be downloaded as a zip
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m25s
Asking a coding model for anything real produces a small tree, and the only
way to get it out of the page was to select each block and paste it
somewhere. A reply containing fenced code now offers a zip, with the
directory structure the model described.

Server-side, because the interesting part is the filenames. They are written
by a language model and they go into an archive that somebody extracts with
a tool that trusts archives, so "../../.ssh/authorized_keys" and
"/etc/cron.d/x" are inputs to expect rather than hope against. archive/zip
and a sanitiser with tests beat string handling in a browser. An absolute
path is made relative — it cannot escape once the leading separator is gone,
and refusing a file over a leading slash throws away work. Anything that
still escapes after cleaning is rejected rather than repaired, because
silently turning ../../evil.go into evil.go puts a file somewhere the reader
did not expect; it gets a generated name instead.

Naming follows what models actually do: on the fence (```go:cmd/main.go,
```main.go, ```go main.go, title="x"), or on the line above it as a heading
or comment. Only the two lines immediately above, so a sentence mentioning
main.go is not read as a filename. A block nobody named still comes back
under a generated name, because losing code because it was unlabelled is
worse than naming it badly, and two blocks claiming one path both survive —
models show a file and then show it again with one line changed.

Nothing is stored: the reply arrives, the zip goes back, neither is kept.
The endpoint sits behind the same session guard and CSRF check as
/chat/send.

Two of these tests asserted the wrong thing when first written — that an
absolute path must be refused, and that hyphens are stripped from the
archive name. Both were corrected to what the code should do rather than

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 0a98d01361 Say when a chat reply was cut off, and stop cutting it so early
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m20s
Reported as the model not completing a request and stopping. It did
complete — it ran out of room. The chat page caps a turn at max_tokens and
then never looked at finish_reason, so a reply that hit the cap ended
mid-word and looked exactly like one that was finished.

The silence was the real defect. A reader has no way to tell "the model had
nothing more to say" from "the page stopped it", and the only clue is that
the last sentence ends abruptly.

512 was also too low. It was chosen when every model here was a 0.5B
answering in a paragraph; it is about a screenful of code, so a coding
model gets cut off inside the first function it writes. 2048 now, which is
still a bound — the reason for having one has not changed.

The notice is appended beside the reply, never into it: that element holds
model output placed with textContent, and building markup in the same node
is how the careful handling everywhere else gets undone.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 082d52bc97 Stop shipping a placeholder that looks like a value, and say what is served
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m23s
A user copied the curl from the profile page and sent it as it stood. Every
other field in that snippet is filled in for them — the base URL, the key
they had just been issued — so "model": "MODEL" reads as a value rather
than a blank, and they got:

  no endpoint serves "MODEL"

which is true and useless. It reads the same whether the name was a typo,
a placeholder left in from the documentation, or a real outage, and it
never says what would have worked.

The message now lists what is being served, capped at ten with a count for
the rest, and says plainly when nothing is. That list is what /v1/models
already returns to the same caller, so it discloses nothing new.

The profile page's example now names a model that is actually running,
real ones before simulated — the point of an example someone can run is
that it runs, and sending a first request to the sim engine would answer
in Greek letters. The landing and claim pages keep a placeholder, because
they are served without a key and deliberately say nothing about what is
here; theirs is <model-name>, which cannot be mistaken for a value, with a
line saying where to get the real one.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 72b03a1a1c Say which model is simulated instead of letting it look broken
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m31s
big-model runs on the sim engine, whose whole vocabulary is the Greek
alphabet, cycled at a fixed rate until max_tokens. That is what it is for:
with no H100s it is the only thing exercising the TP8 two-node path, the
fabric invariant and rebuild-after-node-loss. The output is the point.

What was wrong is that nothing said so. /v1/models returned it with
owned_by "llmgw", identical to the real model, and the chat picker sorted
purely by name — so "big-model" led the list, was preselected by the
browser, and anyone who typed a question and pressed Send got Greek
letters back with no explanation. Reported as the model spitting out crap,
which is a fair reading of what it looks like from outside.

Simulated is derived from the profiles rather than configured: an operator
who adds a sim profile and forgets a flag would be shipping placeholder
text under a real model's name. A model counts as simulated only when
every profile is, because one real profile means the request can still
come back as inference.

The marker on /v1/models is owned_by "llmgw-sim", which is already what
the sim engine calls itself on its own /v1/models — the gateway was
flattening a distinction that existed one layer down.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 cbf276a41b Render maths in the chat, without letting the model write markup
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m20s
Replies are plain text, so a model asked about an integral answers with
\int_0^1 x^2 dx and the reader gets the source.

KaTeX is vendored into the binary rather than loaded from a CDN. This gateway
makes no outbound requests of its own and is expected to run where it could
not make one; a chat page that silently loses its maths on an air-gapped
cluster would be worse than one that never had it. 600 KB of JS, CSS and WOFF2
fonts, which the stripped binary absorbs without changing its rounded size.

The ordering is the safety argument, and there is a test for it rather than a
comment alone. The reply is put in place with textContent exactly as before,
and only then walked for maths: renderMathInElement replaces the spans it
recognises, so nothing the model wrote is ever parsed as HTML and the markup
that appears is KaTeX's. trust stays false — KaTeX's default, and what keeps
\href and \includegraphics out of a reply — and throwOnError is off so one
malformed expression does not take the rest with it.

Rendered once the reply is complete. Typesetting each chunk would try to set
half an expression on every token and flicker through the whole answer.

The static handler now serves a small embedded asset tree rather than one
file, so it moved to its own embed: a file server over the tree that also
carries the templates would serve those too. Directory listings are refused —
nothing links to one, so the only requests are from somebody looking around.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 3b67b1fe42 Stop the dashboard linking to pages that are not where it is
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m25s
Clicking "metrics" on the web dashboard answered "no api key was provided".

The page is served twice and its navigation assumed one of them. Metrics,
pprof and the management API exist on the admin listener; account
administration, the profile and the chat exist on the client-facing port. The
nav offered the first set in both places, so on the public port those links
fell through to the API-key middleware — which is a far more confusing way to
say "that is not here" than a 404 would have been.

Each page now offers what is actually reachable from it, and the public one
says where the rest lives rather than pretending it does not exist, including
why that port is not exposed: pprof can dump the process heap, and the heap
holds every API key in plaintext.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 de21649ad6 Add an in-browser chat, without putting a key in the browser
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m13s
So someone can try a model without setting up a client, and — more often —
tell whether a problem is the gateway or their code.

The page carries a session, and the server turns that into the identity an API
key would have produced, resolved from the person's project. The request then
goes down the ordinary path by being handed to the same handler /v1 uses:
admission, model allowlist, rate limits, budget, accounting. There is exactly
one request path, so there is no second place for its rules to drift — and
without that, a playground is a hole in every limit the rest of the gateway
enforces. The allowlist test posts a forbidden model and expects 403 for that
reason.

The body is rebuilt rather than forwarded, so the page cannot set fields it has
no business setting: a stream:false that would hang the reader, a max_tokens
large enough to occupy a replica for an hour. One turn is capped at 512 tokens.

The picker offers what is actually served and allowed, not what is catalogued,
because offering a model with no replica produces a 503 the reader cannot
interpret.

Inline vanilla JavaScript, for the same reason the charts are hand-drawn SVG.
It streams, because on CPU inference ten seconds is normal and a chat that
hangs and then dumps a paragraph feels broken. Replies are written with
textContent throughout: model output and user input have no business being
parsed as markup. Its POSTs carry the CSRF token in a header, which a
cross-site form cannot set at all.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 859f08da9b Approve accounts from the browser, and draw the traffic
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m19s
Two things the dashboard was missing: it could not act, and it was a column of
numbers.

Account administration moves to /admin/users — approving into a project,
suspending, reinstating. That is the work an operator does constantly and it
should not need a terminal. Three things stay on the CLI, and the line is not
arbitrary: promoting someone to admin, resetting a password, and issuing a key
on another person's behalf each turn a stolen admin session into more than it
was — permanent access, or somebody else's account. Approving and suspending
do not. Suspending signs the account out everywhere, or suspension is advisory
until the session happens to expire, and an admin cannot suspend themselves,
which is not a thing an interface should let you do by misclicking.

The charts are inline SVG generated in Go. A charting library would mean a
JavaScript toolchain in CI and a megabyte of bundle for what is a list of
rectangles, and the single-binary goal rules that out. Hourly over a day: fine
enough to show a working day, coarse enough that one slow minute is not an
incident. Empty hours are filled in, because a chart with hours missing where
nothing happened reads as a chart with hours missing from the data.

The SVG is marked as trusted HTML, so everything that reaches it is either a
number this package computed or escaped explicitly, and a bar's colour can only
be one of four names — a colour that could be anything is a way to write CSS
into every page the chart appears on. There are tests for both.

Ilker ManapandClaude Opus 5 e519dc587c Serve the cluster dashboard over the web, without serving pprof with it
CI / test (push) Successful in 1m21s
Reaching it meant an SSH tunnel, because the page lived on the admin listener
and that listener is bound to loopback. Opening the port was never the way to
fix that: it also serves pprof, and pprof can dump the process heap, where
every API key sits in plaintext. Exposing the port would have been exposing
the key store.

So the page moves rather than the port. The same dashboard is now mounted at
/admin on the client-facing port, behind the session and CSRF machinery that
already guards /profile, gated on a flag on the account. The admin listener
keeps pprof and metrics and stays on loopback.

One bit, not a role system: it grants looking. Everything that changes the
cluster or issues a credential stays on the CLI, where it needs a shell rather
than a session — which keeps the worst case of a stolen admin cookie to "saw
the cluster" rather than "drained your fleet".

Someone without the flag gets 404, not 403. A 403 confirms the page is there
and that admin accounts exist here, which is free reconnaissance; 404 is what
every other unknown path returns. The profile page does not show a link to a
door the visitor cannot open.
