A frozen member (SIGSTOPped tmux server) cost every user one synchronous
3 s block of the event loop per minute (F37's back-off ceiling). Member
listing now runs through async execFile (same 3 s / SIGKILL / 1 MiB
bounds, same back-off) into the listed cache the synchronous readers
(liveSessions, listSessions, listOutput) already use: stale-while-
revalidate, 15 s max age, cold or failing = that member's panes UNKNOWN
(F38 unchanged). A session this process creates or kills is written into
the member's cached answer at once, and a list in flight across that
change is dropped. Host tmux calls, local mode and every click's call
(new-session, send-keys, kill, has-session) are unchanged.
review5's stalled-member test now polls for 4 s past the timeout and
asserts each poll < 100 ms, event-loop stall < 500 ms and one sudo
(old code: first poll 3157 ms).
Server mode can now run each account as its own Linux user (ah-<name>)
when `agenthub server install-system` has set S3 up. The dashboard
reaches a member only through sudo -u / write-as / pane-launch, reads a
member's files only through owner- and type-checked opens, and hooks
are authenticated by peer uid. Local mode and server mode without S3
are unchanged.
EXPERIMENTAL: tested with fake sudo and fake accounts only. It has not
yet been verified on a real install with real member accounts, sudo or
a real Codex login. Do not offer it to real users yet.
- S3 core: provisioning, per-member tmux servers, the proxy key
gateway, shared tools in /opt, dropped capabilities for children
(P0–P5)
- P4: plan and quota per member home
- P6: ~/.claude.json seed; opt-in plugin baseline installed as the
member; managed-settings spike script (not run)
- P7: Codex account pool (`agenthub accounts add --tool codex`)
- Roles merged with main's admin / analyst / developer: analysts write
only their own rows, under S3 as well
- Per-account prefs: one implementation (Chat UI + onboarding)
- Security reviews F1–F49 (five rounds), each fix with a regression
test: symlink/TOCTOU-safe member reads, no host writes in a member
home, credentials and the data dir never served, owner and folder
account must agree, pane tokens bound to the pane's uid, bounded
sudo/tmux/git calls and member reads (no hang or crash from a member),
async route rejections answer 500 instead of exiting
- Docs: docs/SERVER-MODE.md (S3 model, accepted ceilings, operator
runbook), docs/plans/server-mode/S3-PLAN.md, CLAUDE.md S3 rules
Tests: server 2838/2841 (3 need 127.0.0.1:3000, held on this box);
client 1162/1162; tsc clean; headers check passes.
