Luke GustafsonandZacharyZcR 6b708106e1 release-2.9.1 (#1557)
* fix(sso): send the PKCE verifier for GitHub login (#1534)

* fix(remote-desktop): clip cursor overflow without disabling zoom (#1535)

* test(remote-desktop): preserve sessions beyond one hour (#1536)

* fix(hosts): expose controls for overflowing editor tabs (#1537)

* fix(hosts): expose controls for overflowing editor tabs

* test(hosts): mock resize observation in admin panel tests

* fix(status): skip TCP probes while host sessions are active (#1538)

* fix(database): batch session activity persistence (#1539)

* docs(api): describe cookie and API key authentication (#1540)

* fix(snippets): repair missing note column on SQLite upgrades (#1541)

* fix(docker): retain stored SSH credential association (#1543)

* feat(hosts): keep compact row actions inline (#1547)

* fix(auth): allow retrying unavailable second-factor interfaces (#1549)

* fix(auth): reject unresolved legacy identity provisioning (#1550)

* fix(desktop): ship the plugin SDK inside Mac App Store builds (#1551)

* fix(tmux): pass full session info to the terminal's session picker (#1552)

The tmux.sessions service reduced detected sessions to bare names, but the
picker reads session.name, so every entry rendered blank and selecting one
sent an empty name, which created a new session instead of attaching.

* fix(ssh): read force keyboard-interactive as a boolean when resolving hosts (#1553)

The column holds the text "true"/"false", and the resolver passed it
through as-is. The string "false" is truthy, so the password provider
treated every saved host as forced keyboard-interactive and left the
password out. Jump hops are built straight from the resolved host, so a
password hop whose server doesn't offer keyboard-interactive failed with
"All configured authentication methods failed".

* fix(database): batch database saves for bulk host writes (#1554)

* fix(database): yield to the event loop between database saves

Each SQLite save serializes and encrypts the whole database into new
buffers, which V8 only releases once the event loop turns. Boot
migrations and bulk host import write plugin settings per host and per
key in an awaited loop, so hundreds of full copies piled up and the
container ran out of memory.

* fix(database): save once per bulk host write instead of once per row

On SQLite every repository write force-saves the whole database. Boot
plugin data migrations, host defaults materialization and the bulk
host routes write one row per host per setting, so they serialized and
encrypted the full database hundreds of times in a row.

DatabaseSaveTrigger.batched wraps a function so force saves made while
it runs collapse into a single save when it finishes. Nested scopes fold
into the outer one, and work that outlives its scope saves normally.

* feat(hosts): add instance-wide predefined tag suggestions (#1548)

* feat(hosts): add shared predefined tag suggestions

* style(hosts): format tag catalog routes

* test(database): advance fake timers past the save yield (#1555)

* fix(i18n): complete Simplified Chinese core and plugin translations (#1542)

* fix(i18n): complete Chinese onboarding and navigation labels

* fix(i18n): translate remaining Chinese core and plugin interfaces

* fix(i18n): translate host editor tab overflow controls

* fix(i18n): use consistent Chinese fleet terminology

* fix(i18n): localize feature settings section titles

* fix: 2.8 oidc accounts unable to sign in after upgrading (#1381)

* fix: plugins losing the saved ssh login when copying a host (#1391)

* fix: fleets, proxmox and automations not getting the host sudo password

* fix: host imports running a defaults pass and metrics restart per host (#1384)

* fix: high cpu from status probes and full database saves on every sample (#1300)

* fix: user data export freezing the server (#1393)

* fix: op:// secret references rejected as ssh keys on credentials (#1394)

* fix: slow file deletes from the trash lookups on every delete (#1390)

* fix: add openapi docs and error handling to host tag routes

* test: compare download stream buffers directly so it stops timing out

* chore: drop em dash from host row comment

* chore: update release notes for 2.9.1

* fix: restore space to add host tags and redesign predefined tags editor

* fix: host key silently accepted when the host is missing from the database (#1397)

* fix: clearer host login failed status label and fix its translations (#1396)

* chore: add host key and status label fixes to release notes

* fix: sso and ldap provider dialogs overflowing the screen and using mismatched toggles

* chore: increment ver

* fix(audit): store plugin entries with no acting user as a null user_id (#1556)

Plugin audit entries written outside a request used the literal "system"
as user_id. That column references users.id, so the insert was refused
(Postgres logs it as an FK violation) and the entry was silently dropped.
Write null instead and keep "system" / plugin:<id> in username.

* chore: add sso/ldap dialog and audit log fixes to release notes

* fix: tunnels and host settings missing from shared hosts on desktop

* fix: remote desktop logins missing from shared hosts on desktop

* fix: simplify host status to online/offline and keep it live without a refresh

* chore: sync Crowdin translations for 2.9.1

Automations

Run actions on your hosts on a schedule or when something happens, like a host going down or a metric crossing a limit.

Features

  • Triggers: a schedule, a host going up or down, a metric crossing a limit, a health check change, a container event, a Termix event or an incoming webhook.
  • Steps: send an alert, call a URL, run a snippet or command, control a container or tunnel, wake a host, wait, set a variable, branch with if / otherwise, run another automation or stop.
  • Run an automation on the host that triggered it or on any host or fleet you pick.
  • See the output and errors of each step for every run.

Permissions

  • automations.view: See automations and their runs. Admins and users have it by default.
  • automations.create: Create automations. Admins and users have it by default.
  • automations.edit: Change automations. Admins and users have it by default.
  • automations.delete: Delete automations. Admins and users have it by default.
  • automations.run: Run automations by hand. Admins and users have it by default.

Services

Provides to other plugins:

  • automations.access: list and run automations.

Uses from other plugins:

  • snippets.access for the run snippet step. Required.
  • fleets.access, tunnels.access, docker.containers, docker.events, host-metrics.viewers and wake-on-lan.send for their steps and triggers. Each one is optional.

Development

npm run build      # build into dist/
npm run test       # run this plugin's tests
npm run typecheck  # type-check this plugin

Host maintenance

Open Maintenance from a saved host's actions. Its owner can start maintenance now, record a reason and estimated duration, or add a one-time, weekly or monthly schedule. Viewing requires automations.view; changes require automations.edit. Active maintenance appears as a host badge. The Automations plugin must remain enabled for maintenance scheduling and suppression to operate.

Schedules use UTC, including through daylight-saving changes. A monthly schedule for a day missing from a month skips that month. Up to 20 plans per host are stored; remove completed one-time plans when no longer needed. Planned windows cannot overlap (touching endpoints are allowed), and recurring conflicts are checked over the Gregorian calendar cycle. Removing a plan cancels future occurrences, not maintenance already in progress.

The estimated completion time is informational. Maintenance only ends when its owner explicitly ends it. If work overruns into another scheduled window, the host stays in maintenance and the estimate extends to the later planned end. After server downtime, due plans are caught up without briefly exposing an outage between maintenance windows. Each plan's next occurrence and the active state survive restarts.

While active, maintenance suppresses new host-status, health-check, metric-threshold, container-event and tunnel-disconnection automation runs for that host. This pauses the entire triggered automation, including any remediation steps. Monitoring continues to report the real status; observed status/health baselines still advance and metric dwell windows are reset. Manual runs, schedules, webhooks, security login events and runs already in progress continue normally. Maintenance does not globally silence alerts from unrelated plugins.

An optional overdue reminder uses the estimate plus a configurable grace period (20 minutes by default). It only sends after core has observed the host offline at or after that deadline; an unknown, online or older cached status does not qualify. Enable host status checks to supply those observations. Reminders use the Alerts hub and category automations.maintenance_overdue, which can be routed through the user's notification rules. A successful reminder is remembered across restarts; an extended estimate permits another reminder for the new deadline. No reminder automatically ends maintenance.

Maintenance rows reference their owner and host with cascading deletion. SQLite, PostgreSQL and MySQL migrations add only the new maintenance table.
