Problem: every host/service/lxc/etc. entity_status row was permanently
stuck at 'unknown' since creation. Verified against the live DB:
metric_samples had 17,559 rows, 100% attached to type='check' probe
entities and 0% to any real monitored entity; only 25 check entities
ever had real health written. check_defs.entity_id (the probe's own
bookkeeping entity) and check_defs.target_id (the host/service actually
being observed) were both real fields, but the scheduler wrote
UpsertEntityStatus/InsertMetricSample/emitSchedulerEvent keyed by
entity_id instead of target_id — so every check ran and every result
was real, it just landed on the wrong row. This is the mechanism behind
observed drift: the agent's dashboard/health tools reported the
internal probes' state, never the actual fleet.
Change:
- scheduler.go: runCheck/resolveSignal now resolve targetID from
cd.TargetID (falling back to the check's own id if unset) and write
status/metrics/events there. Signals stay keyed by the check entity,
unchanged, matching their existing resolution logic.
- Added a staleness sweep to housekeeping(): an entity whose last
observation is older than 3x its fastest enabled check's interval
(floor 5m) is marked 'stale' and emits health.stale, so a stalled
scheduler or disabled check_def can no longer look like current data
forever.
- migrations/016: deletes the now-orphaned check-entity entity_status
rows so dashboard/fleet-health rollups stop double-counting probes as
monitored entities. Historical metric_samples on check entities are
left as-is (time-series data, not safe to reattribute).
- openapi.yaml + regenerated gen code: Entity gains health/last_check_at;
'stale' added to the health enum everywhere it's used.
- dashboard.go / GetFleetHealth / nomos's get_health_summary MCP tool:
exclude type='check' entities from rollups.
- nomos/agent.go: replay prior turns' tool_use/tool_result pairs into
the conversation instead of dropping them (previously only final text
was replayed, forcing the agent to re-derive fleet state every turn),
and inject a compact live fleet-health snapshot into the system prompt
each turn so it starts oriented instead of spending an iteration on
discovery.
Risk: config_mutation (schema-adjacent — new migration, no destructive
DDL, additive DELETE only on orphaned rows). No behavior change until
oikos-api/oikos-scheduler/nomos are rebuilt and redeployed.
Verification: go build/vet clean across the repo. Ran this worktree's
own API binary against the live dev Postgres on an alternate port
(read-only from the live containers' perspective) and confirmed
/api/v1/entities now returns health/last_check_at, and the dashboard
health rollup dropped from double-counting to an honest 168 unmonitored
entities (matches reality pre-deploy — the live scheduler hasn't run
the fixed code yet). Confirmed check_defs.target_id correctly maps
multiple checks to host:hubris via direct psql query.

Plan #5 done. Wiki already archived to archive/knowledge/. seeds/knowledge.yaml
has 24 docs + 6 investigations + 3 runbooks.
- MCP search_knowledge: upgraded from ILIKE to PostgreSQL ts_rank/ts_headline
- MCP get_entity_knowledge: new tool, walks relationship edges to return
all docs/investigations/runbooks linked to an entity
- HTTP endpoints (SearchKnowledge, GetEntityKnowledge) already used full FTS
- Plan index + audit cross-reference updated
- phase3.go: RequestExecution now calls InsertEntity before InsertExecution
(executions.entity_id references entities.id via FK constraint).
- mcp/server.go: request_execution MCP tool same fix — inserts entities row
with slug 'exec:<target>:<id8>' before executions insert.
- docker-compose.yml: fix seed OIKOS_SEEDS_DIR from /app/seeds to /seeds
(distroless image COPY destination).
Reviewed the phase-2 implementation (parts 2–5) end to end. The suite hung
for 600s and several handlers were never exercised because there were no
tests for the new mutation/event/MCP surface. Fixes:
- CRITICAL: sseListener ran on context.Background() and held a pooled
connection forever, so pool.Close() deadlocked (600s test timeout).
NewHandler now takes a ctx that governs the listener; ListenAndServe and
the test helper cancel it before closing the pool.
- CRITICAL: MCP AddTool panicked ("missing input schema") at construction
under go-sdk v1.6.1 — so NewHandler (and every API handler) panicked.
Added object input schemas to all 8 tools via an objSchema helper.
- HIGH: PatchEntity parsed lifecycle transitions as map[string][]string but
the shape is {from:{to:{requires:[]}}}, so every state-change PATCH 500'd.
Parse the nested shape; allow same-state no-ops.
- HIGH: CreateEntity bound SQL NULL for attributes when omitted, violating
the NOT NULL column (the default only applies when omitted). Default to
'{}'.
- MED: serveSSEWriter ignored the request ctx (per-client goroutine leak on
disconnect) and set an invalid Content-Length: -1. Thread ctx through;
omit the header. writeSSE now nil-checks the flusher (io.Pipe path passed
nil → would have panicked on first event).
- MED: SSE `data:` leaked raw sqlcgen.Event (PascalCase, base64 JSONB).
Emit canonical gen.Event so SSE matches GET /events. Verified live.
- LOW: CreateEntity uses uuid.NewV7 (ADR-0005) + real actor from context in
audit; removed dead bearerAuth; fixed vet unkeyed-field warnings.
Tests (would have caught all of the above): entity create/patch with
If-Match 409/400, valid+invalid lifecycle transitions, idempotency replay,
duplicate-slug 409, abstract-type 422, event+audit side effects, MCP tool
registration. Live smoke test confirmed NOTIFY→listener→SSE delivery.
Also adds the missing Phase 2 deliverable: Gitea Actions CI (vet,
golangci-lint, govulncheck, generated-code drift guard, race tests against
TimescaleDB, docker build) and wires sqlc into `make generate`.
