Build ops-health dashboard with orchestrator planning and follow-up badge

claude 405 events 6 segments dap-ops-health

segment 1 of 6

Review briefs, code anchors, and clarify scope with stakeholder

Done

Read ORCHESTRATOR_BRIEF.md, OPS_HEALTH_PLAN.md, DESIGN.md, and skimmed config/code anchors. Presented planned decomposition and posed clarifying questions. Stakeholder answered: no FOS health endpoint (use base host), VPN reachability as health check, current-status-only v1, no Rimage/mail/bugsnag, Dropbox/B2 important, branch rebased onto admin-restyle (re-read theme/layout), no scheduler/horizon running (use Solo daemons). Re-oriented after rebase by re-reading app.css, layout, nav, lab-dashboard blade, package.json, env settings.

outcome

Scope clarified, all questions answered, working tree re-oriented to admin-restyle theme.

next steps

—

key decisions

  • Use custom harness (no spatie/laravel-health) per plan recommendation
  • VPN health = TCP probe to Labworks SQL Server host:port
  • No FOS health endpoint — probe base host via HTTP HEAD/GET
  • Dropbox and B2 are important external checks
  • Use Solo daemons for Horizon and scheduler
  • Branch rebased onto admin-restyle — build against current theme

segment 2 of 6

Build health-check harness and all check classes

Done

Wrote harness foundation: HealthStatus enum, HealthResult DTO, HealthCheck interface, HealthGroup constants, AbstractCheck base, Tcp probe helper, HealthRunner, and config/health.php. Created 9 tasks. Spawned four subagents in parallel to write 14 check classes. All subagents reported completion. Later reviewed all 16 generated files, fixed unused catch variables in 5 checks, and confirmed lint-clean.

outcome

Harness files created and all 14 check classes written, reviewed, and fixed; unused catch variables removed.

next steps

—

key decisions

  • HealthResult uses named args to avoid up()/down() argument order confusion
  • Cache store is Redis (shared between CLI and web)
  • Staleness guard demotes results older than 3× cadence to unknown
  • LabworksCheck uses TCP pre-probe before DB connect
  • HorizonCheck reads MasterSupervisorRepository and JobRepository contracts
  • BackupCheck uses spatie/laravel-backup BackupDestination
  • Storage checks use directoryExists('') as cheap SFTP probe
  • Keep fileExists despite false positive warnings because it throws on connection errors while exists() does not.
  • Use non-capturing catch (PHP 8) for unused exception variables to keep the tree warning-free.

Build RunHealthChecks command and SystemStatus Livewire page

Done

Created app/Console/Commands/RunHealthChecks.php with --force option, added schedule entry in Kernel.php (everyMinute withoutOverlapping). Added systemStatus method to AdminController, route in web.php, nav link in admin-page-nav.blade.php, created Livewire SystemStatus component with runNow() that queues a forced re-check, and wrote the system-status.blade.php view with status rollup banner and grouped check cards using Flux components. View uses wire:poll.15s for auto-refresh.

outcome

RunHealthChecks command scheduled every minute; SystemStatus page accessible at /admin/system-status with Livewire component and Flux view.

next steps

—

key decisions

  • Use --force to bypass per-check cadence for the dashboard's 'Run now' button.
  • Schedule everyMinute withoutOverlapping to avoid concurrent runs.
  • Use Artisan::queue to dispatch 'Run now' to Redis queue so the request returns immediately.
  • Use wire:poll.15s to auto-refresh results from cache.

Start daemons and write tests for health checks and dashboard

Done

Added Horizon and Scheduler entries to solo.yml. Started Reverb, Horizon, and Scheduler daemons via Solo. Confirmed Horizon running. Created tests/Unit/HealthTest.php with fake checks to test HealthResult round-trip, severity ordering, runner catching throws, snapshot rollup, and stale demotion. Created tests/Feature/SystemStatusTest.php mirroring LabDashboardTest conventions: guest redirect, admin page render, component assertions, and runNow queue assertion. Added HEALTH_CACHE_STORE=array to phpunit.xml. Fixed a Blade comment that broke compilation. All 9 new tests passed, full suite (18 tests) passed.

outcome

Daemons running (Reverb, Horizon, Scheduler); unit and feature tests written and passing (18 tests).

next steps

—

key decisions

  • Add Horizon and Scheduler to solo.yml with auto_start: false so they require explicit trust in Solo UI.
  • Start daemons as spawned terminals for immediate demo while YAML commands remain untrusted.
  • Use DatabaseTransactions trait for feature tests to avoid DB pollution.
  • Set HEALTH_CACHE_STORE=array in phpunit.xml to use array cache in tests.

Stage and commit feature files, verify live snapshot

Done

Staged 33 feature files including all health check classes, command, controller, Livewire component, views, routes, config, and tests. Excluded docs, solo.yml, and cache. Committed as b23eb27. Verified live snapshot against real Redis cache, confirming all 14 checks grouped correctly and scheduler running. All tests passing.

outcome

Feature committed as b23eb27, live snapshot verified with 6/14 down (expected for dev worktree), all tests passing.

next steps

—

key decisions

  • Exclude DESIGN.md, OPS_HEALTH_PLAN.md, ORCHESTRATOR_BRIEF.md, solo.yml, and .phpunit.result.cache from the commit.

Implement follow-up requests: remove nav entry and add health badge to Lab Dashboard

Done

User requested two follow-ups: remove the System Status nav entry and add a clickable health badge to the Lab Dashboard header. Removed nav entry from admin-page-nav.blade.php. Added systemHealth method to LabDashboard that reads cached snapshot and returns color/icon/text array. Updated view to display badge above 'Updated' linking to /admin/system-status. Added test assertion. Checked that Herd site is already set up. All changes committed as 30a8426.

outcome

Nav entry removed, health badge added to Lab Dashboard header (always visible, contextual color/text, links to ops dashboard), all 19 tests pass.

next steps

—

key decisions

  • The badge is always visible and links to the ops dashboard, even when all healthy, to provide consistent navigation.
  • The badge reads from cached snapshot to avoid live probes on every render.
