Maycon Santos 92a66cdd20 [management,proxy,client] 0.74.0 version (#6563)
* [management,proxy] Agent network: per-account LLM gateway (policy, metering, multi-provider) (#6555)

* [agent-network] Shared proto, OpenAPI schema, and generated types

* [agent-network] Management: store, manager, synthesizer, policy engine, provider catalog, HTTP/gRPC API

Adds the account-scoped agent-network module: provider/policy/budget CRUD and
store, the reverse-proxy service synthesizer, policy selection + limit
enforcement, the provider catalog (incl. Vertex AI and AWS Bedrock entries),
and the management HTTP + proxy gRPC surfaces.

* [management] Fix agent-network proxy-peer fan-out on affected-peer recompute

The affected-peers resolver loaded only persisted reverse-proxy services, but
agent-network services are synthesized on demand and never persisted. As a
result the embedded proxy peer was never folded into the affected set when a
client's group changed, so the proxy received no network-map update for a newly
authorised client and rejected its handshake until a full resync (restart).

loadProxyServices now merges the synthesized agent-network services (injected
via a registration hook to avoid an import cycle), so proxy peers learn newly
authorised clients immediately.

* [proxy] Reverse-proxy middleware framework, chain, and request plumbing

The per-target middleware chain (slots, dispatcher, mutation gate, metadata
merger), body capture, access-log terminal sink, and the proxy wiring that
builds + runs chains for synthesized agent-network services.

* [proxy] LLM parsers, pricing, and builtin middlewares (OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock)

Request/response parsers and SSE/event-stream metering, the embedded pricing
table, and the builtin middleware set: request parser, router, policy
limit-check/record, cost meter, guardrail, identity inject, response parser.
Includes the path-routed providers — Google Vertex AI (keyfile:: service-account
OAuth minting) and AWS Bedrock (bearer auth, invoke/converse/streaming, optional
/bedrock prefix) — plus the Models allowlist and unmeterable-publisher deny.

* [proxy] IPv6 in-place apply and TCP accept-loop hardening on netstack listeners

* [agent-network] End-to-end test suite, module docs, and deployment preset

* [agent-network] Fix codespell typos and exclude false positives

- labelgen word pool: vermillion -> vermilion, racoon -> raccoon.
- codespell ignore list: add flate (Go compress/flate package), recordin
  (a test-local identifier), and unparseable (a valid alternative spelling used
  consistently across identifiers + a metadata-value constant).

* [management] Set LastSeen on injected proxy peer in realstack test (MySQL strict-mode)

The injected embedded proxy peer had a PeerStatus with a zero LastSeen, which
serializes to '0000-00-00' and is rejected by MySQL in strict mode (SQLite
tolerates it). Set LastSeen to a valid time so SaveAccount succeeds on both
engines.

* [agent-network] Remove e2e shell-script suite from this branch

The end-to-end shell scripts under scripts/e2e/ are maintained in a separate
testing suite and are not part of this change set.

* [agent-network] Polish module docs: remove internal review scaffolding, fix links, verify diagrams

Strip PR-review framing, commit references, absolute paths, and stale internal
references from the agent-network module docs; fix broken relative links; verify
all diagrams against the current architecture. Remove the internal AI-reviewer
prompt file.

* [management] Refine session expiration handling to support 3-state encoding for SSO deadlines

* [agent-network] Relocate agentnetwork package to internals/modules

Move management/server/agentnetwork (and its catalog/, labelgen/, types/
subpackages) to management/internals/modules/agentnetwork, alongside the
reverse-proxy module, and rewrite all importers. Pure relocation: package names,
the synthesizer + affectedpeers registration hook, and store access (shared
store.Store) are unchanged, so no import cycle is introduced (affectedpeers
still depends only on the agentnetwork/types leaf).

* [agent-network] Co-locate HTTP handlers in the module (RegisterEndpoints)

Move the agent-network HTTP handlers from server/http/handlers/agentnetwork into
the module at internals/modules/agentnetwork/handlers (package handlers) and
rename the entrypoint AddEndpoints -> RegisterEndpoints, matching the
reverse-proxy module convention. Wiring in http/handler.go updated accordingly.

* Update getting started to point to rc when agent network enabled

* Add a reference to a commercial license

* Fix docs localhost link

* Fix docs localhost link

* Add private services domain note

* [management] Add agent-network telemetry metrics (#6561)

Surface agent-network adoption and usage in the self-hosted metrics
worker: distinct accounts, providers, policies, budget rules, accounts
with log collection enabled, and aggregated input/output tokens plus
cost.

Tokens and cost are summed from agent_network_request_usage (the
always-written per-request ledger) so the figures are accurate
regardless of the log-collection toggle and carry no double-counting.
All values come from a handful of indexed aggregate queries run only on
the worker's periodic tick.

Adds store.AgentNetworkMetrics with GetAgentNetworkMetrics on the Store
interface, the SqlStore implementation, and a zero-valued FileStore stub.

* Update NetBird server and proxy image versions to 0.74.0-rc.2

* [management,proxy] Reduce agent-network cognitive complexity (#6566)

Address the SonarCloud quality-gate findings in new agent-network code
by extracting focused helpers. No behavior change.

- synthesizer.go: split buildIdentityInjectConfigJSON into per-shape
  rule builders; extract mergeGuardrail from mergeGuardrails to cut
  nesting depth.
- llm_identity_inject: extract injectionEmitsAnything validation
  predicate from New.
- llm_response_parser/streaming.go: extract applyOpenAIStreamUsage and
  applyAnthropicStreamUsage (via a named anthropicStreamUsage type) and
  simplify the OpenAI scanner loop.
- reverseproxy.go: decompose ServeHTTP into serveRouteError,
  buildTargetContext, serveDirect, serveWithChain, captureRequestForChain,
  serveDeny, newResponseWriter, observeResponse, and forwardUpstream,
  preserving the defer ordering so response observation still reads the
  captured writer before it is released.

* [management] Move agent-network access-log ingest into the agentnetwork module (#6568)

The agent-network access-log ingest path (metaKey wire contract, flatten,
usage derivation, and the dual-write of the usage ledger + settings-gated
full row) lived in the reverseproxy accesslogs manager, even though the
agentnetwork module already owns the rest of that domain — types, read
(ListAccessLogs / GetUsageOverview), the budget-counter writes, and
retention cleanup.

Move it next to the rest: a stateless agentnetwork.IngestAccessLog(ctx,
store, entry) that the reverseproxy SaveAccessLog delegates to when the
entry is agent-network. Removes the agentNetworkTypes import from the
reverseproxy manager. No behavior change; the write/read table separation
is unchanged.

Adds real-store coverage for the disable->enable log-collection toggle
(usage ledger always written, full row gated) plus the metadata parse and
group-dedup helpers, which previously had no dedicated tests.

* Add session view support in the access log

* [management,proxy] Container-based agent-network e2e harness (#6577)

* [e2e] Add container-based agent-network e2e harness (Pillar 1)

Introduce a self-contained, OIDC-free e2e harness that stands up NetBird
in containers, so suites no longer depend on the hand-maintained Tilt
stack or a real IdP.

- harness brings up the combined server (management + signal + relay +
  STUN + embedded IdP) in a single container built from
  combined/Dockerfile.multistage, and mints an admin PAT through the
  unauthenticated /api/setup bootstrap (NB_SETUP_PAT_ENABLED). API access
  goes through the existing shared/management/client/rest typed client.
- the image is built via the docker CLI (BuildKit) so the Dockerfile's
  cache mounts are honored; testcontainers then runs the tagged image.
- everything is behind the `e2e` build tag so normal builds and unit
  tests never pull in testcontainers.

Adds BuildKit cache mounts to combined/Dockerfile.multistage so source
changes recompile incrementally rather than from scratch.

Pillar 1 proven by TestCombinedBootstrap: server builds, boots, mints a
PAT, and the PAT authenticates a real management API call.

* [e2e] Add management-side agent-network scenarios (Pillar 2)

Port the API-driven agent-network scenarios from the bash suites to Go,
sharing one combined server per package run (TestMain) with each test
owning its resource cleanup. Drives the /api/agent-network/* endpoints
through the shared REST client's NewRequest primitive with the generated
api types.

Scenarios:
- provider lifecycle (create/get/list/delete + 404 after delete)
- provider validation (missing api_key, unknown catalog id → 4xx)
- settings collection-toggle round-trip with cluster/subdomain immutability
- policy window floor (reject <60s enabled limit, accept at 60s)
- consumption read endpoint returns an array

All deterministic and dependency-free (dummy provider keys; no upstream
calls), so they run headless in CI.

* [e2e] Add live chat-through-proxy scenario (Pillar 3)

Stand up the full agent-network data path in containers and drive a real
chat-completion through the gateway:

- harness: a shared docker network (combined server reachable by alias),
  a proxy container built from the published reverse-proxy image
  (NB_PROXY_PRIVATE, NB_PROXY_ALLOW_INSECURE, NB_RELAY_TRANSPORT=ws to match
  the combined server's WS-multiplexed relay) with a generated self-signed
  wildcard cert, and a netbird client container that joins via a setup key.
- the combined image, proxy image, and client image default to the
  published rc.2 releases (overridable via NB_E2E_*_IMAGE; a bare local tag
  is built from source instead). Geolocation download is disabled so the
  server starts without external fetches.
- one shared domain is used for the management exposed address, the proxy
  domain, and the agent-network cluster; the proxy token is minted via the
  server CLI (global) to match the manual install.

TestChatCompletionThroughProxy provisions provider+policy+group+setup key,
runs proxy+client, drives an OpenAI chat-completion through the tunnel, and
asserts a 200 plus the ingested access-log row. Requires OPENAI_TOKEN
(skips otherwise). The provider must be created with enabled=true explicitly
— the create default is false despite the API doc.

* [e2e] Run the live chat scenario across a provider matrix

Replace the single-provider chat test with a data-driven matrix that runs
the same scenario through every provider whose credentials are present in
the environment (keys/URLs sourced from ~/.llm-keys locally, Actions
secrets in CI):

- OpenAI (chat), Anthropic (messages), Vercel, OpenRouter, Cloudflare
  (OpenAI-compatible gateways), and Bedrock (path-routed, bearer, via the
  messages shape) — covering both wire shapes and the gateway routing.
- all providers are created enabled with a unique model string so the
  proxy's connect-time snapshot carries them all and model->provider
  routing is unambiguous (provider toggles after connect don't reconcile
  to a connected proxy).
- the client supports both wire shapes (/v1/chat/completions and
  /v1/messages); Cloudflare gets the openai provider segment appended to
  its gateway URL.

Each provider must return 200 through the tunnel and produce an ingested
access-log row. Vertex is intentionally excluded from the uniform matrix:
it needs a bespoke rawPredict request shape rather than the shared
chat/messages path, so it warrants a dedicated scenario.

* [ci] Add manual workflow for the agent-network e2e suite

The e2e suite (build tag `e2e`) stands up the combined server + proxy +
client in Docker and drives live chat-completions, so it is slow and needs
provider credentials. Gate it out of normal CI (it already is, via the
build tag) and run it on demand via workflow_dispatch. Provider scenarios
skip when their secret is unset, so it degrades gracefully.

* [e2e] Add Vertex to the provider matrix; run e2e on ubuntu-latest

Vertex (Anthropic-on-Vertex) doesn't share the chat/messages wire shapes:
the model travels in a rawPredict path and the proxy mints the service
account's OAuth token. Add a Vertex client method that posts
/v1/projects/<project>/locations/<region>/publishers/anthropic/models/<model>:rawPredict
with the Vertex anthropic_version body, and wire it into the matrix as a
path-routed provider (created without a models array). It is keyed off
GOOGLE_VERTEX_SA_BASE64 + GOOGLE_VERTEX_PROJECT (region defaults to
"global", model to a pinned claude snapshot, both overridable).

Also bump the e2e workflow runner to ubuntu-latest and add the Vertex
secrets.

* Add docker/docker and docker/go-connections as direct dependencies in go.mod

* [ci] Trigger agent-network e2e workflow on push to main and pull requests

* [e2e] Fix proxy cert permission denied on Linux CI runners

The proxy bind-mounts a temp dir of self-signed certs. MkdirTemp creates
it 0700 and the key was 0600, which Docker Desktop on macOS ignores but a
non-root proxy container on Linux runners cannot traverse/read, so the
cert watcher failed with "open /certs/tls.crt: permission denied" and the
container exited. Widen the cert dir to 0755 and write the throwaway key
0644 so the proxy uid can read the bind-mounted material.

* [e2e] Build images from source by default instead of pulling rc.2

The agent-network code under test lives in this branch, so the e2e should
exercise it rather than a frozen published release. Flip the harness
default: combined/proxy/client are now built from their in-repo
Dockerfiles (combined/Dockerfile.multistage, proxy/Dockerfile.multistage,
e2e/harness/Dockerfile.client) under local tags. Pulling a published image
stays available by setting NB_E2E_*_IMAGE to a registry reference.

Builds now go through buildx --load so the Dockerfile cache mounts are
honored and the result is loaded for testcontainers. The CI workflow adds
a container-driver builder and a local layer cache (NB_E2E_BUILDX_CACHE)
persisted via actions/cache, which caches the base/apt/dep-download layers
across runs. The Go compile still re-runs each time, as BuildKit mount
caches cannot be exported to the GitHub cache.

* [e2e] Cover real providers in lifecycle + assert real consumption metering

- TestProviderLifecycle now runs per available real provider (create → get →
  list → delete → 404) instead of a single dummy provider, exercising each
  catalog's create and field round-trip. Create is offline, so it stays fast
  and burns no provider quota; falls back to a synthetic OpenAI provider when
  no keys are set.
- TestProvidersMatrix attaches a token limit (high caps, 60s window) to its
  policy, which switches on usage metering, and asserts consumption rows are
  recorded with positive token counts after the live traffic. Consumption is
  account-scoped (keyed by source group / user and window, not per provider),
  so the assertion is aggregate.
- TestProviderValidation gains invalid-upstream and blank-name cases. Create
  validation is uniform across catalogs (no per-provider required-field rules),
  so per-provider rejection cases would be redundant.

* [e2e] Assert session id propagates per provider

Each matrix request now sends a unique session id as the universal
x-session-id header and asserts it round-trips into that provider's
access-log row. This guards the session-grouping contract end to end for
every provider (header extraction runs in llm_request_parser ahead of the
parser-specific body extraction, so it is provider-agnostic).

* [e2e] Drop accidentally committed sync-phases dashboard

netbird-sync-phases.json was swept into the Pillar 1 commit by a broad
git add; it belongs to the unrelated sync-phases metrics work, not this
e2e harness. Remove it from the branch so the PR diff is scoped to the
e2e changes.

* [e2e] Revert accidentally committed sync-phase ingest spec

The netbird_sync_phase measurement spec in metrics ingest was swept into
the Pillar 1 commit; it belongs to the unrelated sync-phases metrics work,
not this e2e harness. Its emission side never landed here, so the spec was
orphaned anyway. Restore ingest/main.go to its origin/main state.

* Fix golint issues

* Fix sonar

* Add access log session test

* Fix access log tests

dashboard — UI for agent-networks

This module documents code that lives in the dashboard repo (under src/modules/agent-network/ and src/app/(dashboard)/agent-network/), not in this repo. It is co-located here so backend readers see the full picture.

Risk level: Medium. The new surface is isolated under src/modules/agent-network/ and src/app/(dashboard)/agent-network/, but it also reshapes the sidebar, splits /peers, renames reverse-proxy/clustersself-hosted-proxies, and overlays the Control Center graph. Regressions here would be cross-cutting. Backward-compat impact: Additive on the API side. Breaking on URL/navigation: /peers redirects to /peers/devices (src/app/(dashboard)/peers/page.tsx:7-15), /reverse-proxy/clusters was renamed to /reverse-proxy/self-hosted-proxies, the sidebar lost Access Control / Networks / Reverse Proxy / DNS / standalone Guardrails / Consumption / Activity (Navigation.tsx:165-171 — routes still resolve via URL), and the standalone /agent-network/{access-log,consumption,global-controls} routes are gone in favor of /agent-network/observability.

Module boundary

The dashboard is the only place an operator interacts with agent-networks: provider catalog, configured providers, policies, guardrails, account-level budget rules, account settings (collection / redaction toggles), per-request access log, and consumption rollups all render, paginate, and edit here. Data flows in via SWR (useFetchApi) keyed by REST URL. One big context provider (src/modules/agent-network/AIProvidersProvider.tsx) aggregates five resources (providers, policies, guardrails, budget rules, settings) plus the proxy access-log stream filtered to agent_network=true, and exposes add* / update* / toggle* / delete* mutators that call through useApiCall and re-mutate() SWR. Pages mount the provider once at the top and compose presentational tables and modals beneath. The control-center page additionally fetches /agent-network/{providers,policies} directly (control-center/page.tsx:123-130) to overlay graph nodes.

What the UI delivers

  • AI Observability page with four tabs: Access Logs, Budget Dashboard, Budget Settings, Log Settings (replaces the standalone access-log, consumption, and global-controls routes).
  • Providers page: provider catalog + connect/edit wizard with per-vendor copy (LiteLLM, Portkey, Bifrost, Cloudflare, Vercel, OpenRouter, custom).
  • Policies page: group → provider authorization with per-policy Limits (minute-granular windows) + guardrail attach.
  • Guardrails page: reusable model-allowlist + prompt-capture sets.
  • Account controls: Log Collection / Prompt Collection / Redact PII toggles.
  • Budget rules: account-level rules reusing the policy Limits UI.
  • Control Center overlay: provider + agent-policy nodes on the graph.
  • Navigation + peers reshaping: peers split into Devices / Agents, reverse-proxy/clusters renamed to self-hosted-proxies, sidebar repackaged for agent-network focus.

AgentConsumptionPanel + AgentConsumptionTable Token + cost panel: charts + counter table
table/AgentProvidersTable + AgentProviderActionCell Providers table + per-row actions
data/mockData.ts Domain types and a few residual MOCK_* constants (see scrutinize)

Touched non-agent-network areas

  • control-center: agent-network overlay (provider + agent-policy nodes); removed the All Networks dropdown; hid the Networks tab in FlowSelector (FlowSelector.tsx:9-14 — enum value kept so ?tab=networks still type-checks); wrapped ControlCenterView in AIProvidersProvider (page.tsx:73-83); agentPolicyNode clicks routed to a separate state slot (page.tsx:1871-1874). New node renderers: nodes/ProviderNode.tsx, nodes/AgentPolicyNode.tsx (registered at utils/nodes.ts:21-22).
  • peers: Split into Devices and Agents sub-routes; shared via PeersListView keyed by kind (PeersListView.tsx:24-95). New compact-toolbar UserFilterSelector (users/UserFilterSelector.tsx).
  • reverse-proxy: Folder rename clusters/self-hosted-proxies/; deleted ClustersFeaturesCell.tsx, ClusterTypeIndicator.tsx; new ReverseProxyClusterTargetSelector for cluster target type; Private toggle on target modal; body-capture knobs removed; new ReverseProxyEventExpandedRow.
  • events: ReverseProxyEventsUserCell rewritten with user + peer fallback (ReverseProxyEventsUserCell.tsx:14-21), shared with the access-log table.
  • navigation: Full repackaging in Navigation.tsx — Agent Network items flattened (no collapsible parent), distinct icons per item; Access Control, Networks, Reverse Proxy, DNS, standalone Guardrails, Consumption, Activity removed (still URL-reachable, per lines 165-171).

Every list view reaches management through SWR over /api/agent-network/*. The provider context maps snake-case payloads to camelCase domain types (fromAPI, policyFromAPI, guardrailFromAPI, budgetRuleFromAPI, settingsFromAPI, accessLogFromAPI — AIProvidersProvider.tsx:138-562) and back via matching *ToRequest adaptors. The access log piggy-backs on /events/proxy with agent_network=true&page_size=100 (line 707-709) and decodes LLM-specific fields from per-event metadata. Group IDs on events are resolved to current names through the surrounding GroupsProvider catalog (lines 515-521, 717-731) — no extra round trip. Mutators run *ToRequest, await useApiCall.post/put/del, call SWR mutate(), then notify. Errors caught and surfaced via notify — no exceptions escape into render. The Connect Provider modal's open state lives in the provider itself (isWizardOpen at lines 732-735) so the providers-page empty-state CTA and the table's + button share one modal. Control-center re-fetches /agent-network/{providers,policies} directly on top of AIProvidersProvider — SWR de-dupes but the code path is harder to reason about.

Public contracts consumed

  • GET/POST /api/agent-network/policies, PUT/DELETE /:id
  • GET/POST /api/agent-network/guardrails, PUT/DELETE /:id
  • GET/POST /api/agent-network/budget-rules, PUT/DELETE /:id
  • GET/PUT /api/agent-network/settings (ignoreError-tolerant; 404 = not yet bootstrapped — auto-bootstrap on first provider create via bootstrap_cluster field — AIProvidersProvider.tsx:737-760)
  • GET /api/agent-network/catalog/providers (read-only declarative; backend owns vendor list, IDs, brand colors, models, extra_headers, identity_injection — useProviderCatalog.ts:6-95)
  • GET /api/agent-network/consumption (polled every 5s on Budget Dashboard — ConsumptionPanel.tsx:53,65-71)
  • GET /api/events/proxy?agent_network=true&page_size=100 (shared with Proxy Events)
  • permission?.services?.read gates every agent-network route via RestrictedAccess.

AIProviderId is a closed union in dashboard types (data/mockData.ts:8-21) but the converter tolerates anything the backend ships — unknown ids fall through to "custom" (AIProvidersProvider.tsx:497-506). Catalog values are pure read-through: anything declared in extra_headers renders in the modal automatically, copy keyed by header name (EXTRA_HEADER_UI in AIProviderModal.tsx:61-89), labeled-fallback for unknown ones.

Invariants

  • Provider context wrap order on user-attribution pages: GroupsProvider > PeersProvider > AIProvidersProvider (observability/page.tsx:87-89). Reverse it and access-log group resolution silently drops names.
  • Every agent-network route checks permission?.services?.read via RestrictedAccess (observability/page.tsx:85, providers/page.tsx:184, policies/page.tsx:53, guardrails/page.tsx:55).
  • Modal key={open ? 1 : 0} pattern is used to force unmount/remount on close so internal useState resets between edits (AgentBudgetRuleModal.tsx:60, AgentPolicyModal.tsx:66). Removing this would leak prior-row state into a new-row session.
  • mockData.ts is the canonical home for ALL agent-network domain types; MOCK_* constants must never reach a production code path. One leak remains (below).

Things to scrutinize

Correctness

  • Tab-state URL hand-off is one-way. observability/page.tsx:53-58 reads ?tab= on mount (despite the file comment at line 28 saying URL hand-off is future) but setTab does NOT push back, so reload preserves the chosen tab only if it came in via the link. Inconsistent with control-center (page.tsx:1817-1831).
  • Provider overlay runs only in applySingleGroupView / applyPeerView (control-center/page.tsx:557, 1159-1166). User view does NOT show providers — if agent-network is a primary lens, that's a gap.
  • Two useEffects race to invalidate the control-center layout. page.tsx:1655-1657 drops layoutInitialized when agentPolicies / agentProviders arrive; the main effect (1786-1799) also lists them as deps. Functional but fragile — watch for flash-of-empty-graph.
  • updateProvider / updatePolicy / updateBudgetRule use ?? on enabled (AIProvidersProvider.tsx:784, 859, 1018). Toggle paths are safe; any caller sending enabled: false thinking "leave it off" gets existing.enabled instead. Audit modal callers.
  • Form validation in modals is minimal. Window-seconds picker — mockData.ts:209-215 documents "minimum 60 — one minute" but there is no matching UI guard in PolicyLimitsTab; the backend validator is the enforcement point.

Security

  • No client-side enforcement claims — every cap, allowlist, and toggle is display + edit; proxy is the source of truth for deny decisions (AccessLogTable.tsx:177-191 renders backend-emitted denyReason as-is).
  • Prompt display is gated by what the backend stamps. When enable_prompt_collection is OFF the proxy must not put prompt/completion into event metadata; the dashboard renders whatever it gets verbatim (AccessLogTable lines 532-534, AccessLogExpandedRow.tsx:42-57). No UI filter on top of backend collection switches.
  • Account Controls disables Redact PII when Prompt Collection is off (AgentAccountControlsCard.tsx:122) and clears it on off-transition (line 100), but relies on backend to enforce the same gate at write — confirm PUT handler rejects redact_pii=true && enable_prompt_collection=false.
  • Bifrost identity-header overrides: empty-string vs nil semantics documented in AIProvidersProvider.tsx:772-781 ("omitted = preserve, empty = explicit clear"). Mishandling could leak group attribution to a header the operator thought disabled. Focused read of Bifrost code path in AIProviderModal.tsx recommended.

Accessibility

  • Observability TabsList (observability/page.tsx:96-113) uses the shared Tabs component — should inherit Radix roving-tabindex. All four TabsTriggers carry only icon + text, no aria-label; fine because text is visible.
  • Modal focus traps are inherited from the shared Modal; agent-network modals don't override them. Quick keyboard pass recommended.
  • EndpointBadge Copy button (providers/page.tsx:66-76) has an aria-label, good.

Performance

  • AgentConsumptionPanel polls /agent-network/consumption every 5s (ConsumptionPanel.tsx:53,70). Tab switches unmount the panel, so the poll stops — verify in network panel.
  • AgentAccessLogTable is hard-capped at 100 rows via page_size=100 (AIProvidersProvider.tsx:707-709). Server-side pagination is future work; high-traffic tenants miss everything past row 100 — known limitation.
  • Observability page mounts providers ONCE at page level (observability/page.tsx:87-89); tab switches keep SWR cache hot. Moving the provider mount inside TabsContent would re-fetch the access log on every switch.

Visual consistency

  • The observability tab style mirrors peers/page.tsx. Outer Tabs pt-4 pb-0 mb-0, TabsList px-8 (observability/page.tsx:94-96) — confirm chrome height matches so the page doesn't visually jump.
  • Sidebar: Boxes for Providers, AccessControlIcon for Policies, TelescopeIcon for AI Observability (Navigation.tsx:113,120,133). Reusing AccessControlIcon makes Policies look identical to the (now hidden) Access Control item — if Access Control ever comes back, they collide.
  • AgentNetworkIcon is used in breadcrumbs on every agent-network page but NOT in the sidebar (per-page icons instead). Deliberate departure — record so it doesn't get reverted.

Test coverage

  • Cypress: One file (cypress/e2e/test.cy.ts) covering only the install-page copy-to-clipboard flow. NOTHING covers agent-network UI.
  • Component / unit tests: src/utils/version.test.ts is the only .test.* file in the repo. The agent-network modules ship without component tests.
  • Data-cy hooks exist on key controls: save-account-controls (AgentAccountControlsCard.tsx:71), enable-log-collection, enable-prompt-collection, redact-pii, plus existing data-cy={policy.name} / data-cy={provider.name} on ActiveInactiveRow. Sufficient hooks for Cypress flows; none written yet.
  • Tooling gap (pre-existing): npm run lint (next lint) is broken in Next 16 — the lint subcommand was removed from the Next CLI in 16.x, so the dashboard effectively has no working lint gate. The fix is to add either a flat-config eslint . script or wire ESLint via an explicit eslint-config-next invocation.

Known limitations / explicit non-goals

  • data/mockData.ts still contains MOCK_GROUPS, MOCK_PROVIDERS, MOCK_PEERS. Only MOCK_GROUPS is referenced from production — AgentPoliciesTable.tsx:45,76 uses it as a name-lookup fallback when a policy references a group ID the real GroupsProvider doesn't know about. MOCK_PROVIDERS / MOCK_PEERS are unreferenced; safe to delete. The file is /* eslint-disable */ so dead-code warnings don't flag them.
  • Tab-state URL hand-off on observability page is one-way (read-only).
  • Access log hard-capped at 100 rows; no server-side pagination.
  • No optimistic updates. All mutations are round-trip; failures rollback via SWR revalidation.
  • FlowView.NETWORKS retained but hidden from FlowSelector (FlowSelector.tsx:9-14). Old ?tab=networks links still route to the hidden view because applyNetworksView still runs.
  • Redirects are not query-preservingrouter.replace("/peers/devices") (peers/page.tsx:13) strips any incoming filter params.
  • Control-center cross-fetches /agent-network/{providers,policies} directly on top of AIProvidersProvider. Could be collapsed.
  • Sidebar permanently hides Access Control, Networks, Reverse Proxy, standalone Guardrails, DNS, Activity, Consumption. Routes still resolve via URL (Navigation.tsx:165-171); intentional.
