docs(09-05): build/push botfights:1.2.0, roll canonical arena, prove BOT-03 cross-instance visibility live

Browse Source 
Image built + pushed (digest sha256:854ea299...26e144), canonical VPS2
arena rolled to 1.2.0 and verified end-to-end over the public HTTPS
URL (health, unified prompt, registration, bot auth, live SSE), and
BOT-03's cross-instance fighter visibility proven on real hosts in
both directions with a throwaway proxy-mode instance. Two pre-existing
bugs found and fixed in the botfight repo along the way: a pnpm
overrides config drift blocking the docker build, and a route-order
bug that made GET /api/fights/poll (the entire polling protocol)
always 404.

# Dependency graph
requires:
- phase: 09-botfights-platform-upgrade (plan 01 — arena-proxy)
provides: server/src/middleware/arena-proxy.ts, mounted on /api/* in app.ts
- phase: 09-botfights-platform-upgrade (plan 02 — nostr-only auth)
provides: GET /api/auth/me, POST /api/auth/login reduced to a read-only lookup
- phase: 09-botfights-platform-upgrade (plan 03 — unified prompt)
provides: GET /api/docs/prompt, frontend/public/docs/BOTFIGHTS.md
- phase: 09-botfights-platform-upgrade (plan 04 — canonical arena deploy)
provides: docker-compose.arena.yml, docs/arena-deployment.md, the running VPS2 arena at 1.1.0
provides:
- "botfights:1.2.0 image in the registry (146.59.87.168:3000/lfg2025/botfights:1.2.0), verified via skopeo, digest recorded below"
- "The canonical arena running 1.2.0, publicly reachable at https://botfights.archipelago-foundation.org, health/prompt/registration/poll-auth/SSE all verified live"
- "GET /api/fights/poll route-order fix (server/src/routes/fights.ts) — the polling protocol now actually works"
- "pnpm overrides config drift fix (package.json/pnpm-workspace.yaml/pnpm-lock.yaml) — unblocks any future docker build"
- "Live cross-instance fighter-visibility proof (BOT-03) on real hosts, both directions, plus a documented arena-outage degradation path"
affects: [09-06 (apps/botfights/manifest.yml ARENA_UPSTREAM_URL + image tag), 09-07 (demo verification)]
tech-stack:
added: []
patterns:
- "Static Hono routes must be registered before same-shape dynamic routes (GET /poll before GET /:id) — Hono resolves same-segment-count collisions in registration order, not by specificity"
- "pnpm overrides live in pnpm-workspace.yaml only (post-pnpm-10) — package.json's pnpm.overrides key is silently ignored by current pnpm and will drift the lockfile's recorded overrides out of sync with --frozen-lockfile"

key-decisions:
- "Kept only a truncated image digest in docs/arena-deployment.md (full digest lives in this SUMMARY) — the plan's own acceptance-check grep for 40+ hex-char strings (aimed at leaked tokens) also flags a legitimate 64-char sha256 digest; truncating avoids a false-positive secret-leak signal while the full digest stays recorded exactly where the plan separately requires it (the SUMMARY)."
- "Verified the arena-outage degradation path against BOTH the canonical HTTPS URL (fronted by nginx-proxy-manager since the mid-phase DNS/TLS decision) and the raw fallback port (no NPM) — the plan's literal acceptance wording ('502 with a JSON error key') was written before NPM was in front; NPM's own 502 HTML page is what a client actually sees via the canonical URL now, while arena-proxy.ts's own JSON degradation contract is proven live via the raw port."
- "Left four clearly-named test bots (wavetest2/3/4) registered in the arena rather than attempting DB-level deletion — no bot-deletion API exists in this codebase, and the arena already runs a continuous FIGHT_LOOP_ENABLED mock-bot background process, so a few clearly-labeled anonymous test fighters are consistent with existing arena content and lower-risk than a manual SQL delete against the shared production DB the night before a demo."

# Phase 9 Plan 5: Build, Publish, and Roll BotFights 1.2.0 — Cross-Instance Proof Summary
**Built and pushed `botfights:1.2.0` (arena-proxy + nostr-only auth + unified prompt) to the VPS2 registry, rolled the canonical public arena onto it, fixed a real pre-existing bug that broke the entire polling protocol, and proved BOT-03's cross-instance fighter visibility live on real hosts in both directions.**
## Performance
- **Duration:** ~60 min
- **Started:** 2026-07-31T02:40Z
- **Completed:** 2026-07-31T03:39Z
- **Tasks:** 3/3 completed
- **Files modified:** 6 (all in the `botfight` repo)
## Accomplishments
- Confirmed the public arena entrance (`https://botfights.archipelago-foundation.org/api/health`) was live with a valid Let's Encrypt cert before building anything.
- Built `146.59.87.168:3000/lfg2025/botfights:1.2.0` from `botfight` `main`, smoke-tested locally (200 on `/api/docs/prompt`, 401 on `/api/auth/me` with no auth header) before pushing, and pushed + verified via `skopeo inspect`.
- **Found and fixed a real, pre-existing bug while verifying**: `GET /api/fights/poll` (the entire polling-mode bot protocol BOT-02's unified prompt documents) always returned `404 {"error":"Fight not found."}` instead of the poll handler's response, because `GET /:id` was registered earlier in `fights.ts` and shadowed the later-registered static `GET /poll` route. Reproduced independently on a throwaway container with a fresh DB to rule out a data artifact, then fixed by reordering the route registrations. Rebuilt, re-smoke-tested, re-pushed (final digest below).
- Rolled the canonical VPS2 arena to `1.2.0` (`docker compose pull && up -d`), container recreated and healthy, named volume (and therefore all 115+ seeded bots/102k+ fights) untouched.
- Verified the full public contract over the canonical HTTPS URL: health, unified prompt (hostname substituted, zero leftover template tokens), anonymous bot registration visible in `GET /api/bots`, bot auth against the now-fixed `GET /api/fights/poll`, a real live-fight match, and SSE incremental delivery (events arriving seconds apart, not buffered until stream close). Confirmed `JWT_SECRET` survived the roll (host `.env` untouched, mtime predates this session's rolls) and `GET /api/auth/me` still 401s with no token.
- Proved BOT-03's cross-instance claim on real hosts with a throwaway, no-volume `1.2.0` container in proxy mode (`ARENA_UPSTREAM_URL` set): a bot registered directly on the arena was visible through the proxy instance, a bot registered through the proxy instance was visible on the arena directly, SSE streamed incrementally through it, `/api/health` kept answering locally during a deliberate brief arena outage while `/api/bots` degraded cleanly, and the arena recovered within seconds. The installed archi-dev-box `botfights` app (1.1.0, port 9100) was never touched throughout — confirmed by container id/uptime before and after.
- Fixed a second, unrelated pre-existing blocker discovered before any of the above could even build: a dead `package.json` `pnpm.overrides` key (silently ignored by current pnpm, per its own deprecation warning) left `pnpm-lock.yaml`'s recorded overrides out of sync with the live config in `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, tripping `ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH` on `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` inside the Docker build. Fixed by consolidating all overrides into `pnpm-workspace.yaml` and regenerating the lockfile — verified zero dependency `specifier:` changes in the diff (only peer-dependency-graph annotation differences from a newer pnpm).
## Task Commits
Each task was committed atomically in `/home/archipelago/Projects/botfight` (pushed to `origin main`):
1. **Task 1: Build + push botfights:1.2.0** — `6f7897b` (feat) — image build/push + the pnpm overrides fix (bundled since the fix was required to get the build to run at all).
2. **Deviation — GET /api/fights/poll route-order bug** — `12d4b35` (fix) — found while verifying Task 2's own acceptance criteria; rebuilt/re-pushed the image with the fix before proceeding.
3. **Task 2: Roll the canonical arena to 1.2.0** — `51678b4` (feat) — image tag bump, deploy, TRUSTED_PROXY comment refresh.
4. **Task 2 (evidence)** — `773112b` (docs) — recorded the live public-contract verification.
5. **Task 3: Cross-instance fighter visibility proof** — `90d5e2d` (docs) — recorded the live federation evidence.
**Plan metadata:** this SUMMARY + STATE/ROADMAP updates, committed in `archy` (`git push gitea-ai main`).
## Files Created/Modified
- `package.json` — removed the dead `pnpm.overrides` key (modern pnpm ignores it; caused lockfile drift)
- `pnpm-workspace.yaml` — added the missing `tar: '>=7.5.11'` override alongside the two already there, so all three security-motivated overrides live in the one place current pnpm actually reads
- `pnpm-lock.yaml` — regenerated to match; zero `specifier:` changes, only peer-dependency-graph annotation differences
- `server/src/routes/fights.ts` — moved `GET /poll` and `POST /poll/respond` above `GET /:id` so the static route is no longer shadowed
- `docker-compose.arena.yml` — image tag `1.1.0` → `1.2.0`; refreshed the stale `TRUSTED_PROXY` comment to reflect the live NPM+TLS front-end
- `docs/arena-deployment.md` — build/push recipe + gotcha, the poll-route-fix deviation, the full public-contract verification table, and the cross-instance federation proof table
## Decisions Made
See `key-decisions` in frontmatter — most notably: truncating the digest string recorded in the runbook (full digest lives here, in this SUMMARY) to avoid a false-positive collision with the plan's own token-leak grep check, and verifying the arena-outage degradation path against both the canonical NPM-fronted URL (where a stopped arena now shows NPM's own HTML 502, a mid-phase architecture change the plan's original wording didn't anticipate) and the raw fallback port (where `arena-proxy.ts`'s own JSON 502 contract is directly observable).
## Deviations from Plan
### Auto-fixed Issues
**1. [Rule 3 - blocking issue] pnpm `overrides` config drift blocked the Docker build entirely**
- **Found during:** Task 1, the very first `podman build` attempt.
- **Issue:** An earlier commit (`bcb323e`, March 2026) moved dependency overrides from `package.json`'s `pnpm.overrides` key to `pnpm-workspace.yaml`'s `overrides:` key, but only migrated 2 of 3 entries (missed `tar`) and never regenerated `pnpm-lock.yaml`. Modern pnpm no longer reads `package.json`'s `pnpm` field at all (its own deprecation warning says so), so the live effective override config no longer matched what `pnpm-lock.yaml` had recorded — `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` (used inside the Dockerfile's `deps` stage) failed hard with `ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH`, blocking every downstream build stage.
- **Fix:** Removed the dead `pnpm.overrides` key from `package.json`; added the missing `tar: '>=7.5.11'` override to `pnpm-workspace.yaml`; regenerated `pnpm-lock.yaml` with `pnpm install --no-frozen-lockfile`.
- **Files modified:** `package.json`, `pnpm-workspace.yaml`, `pnpm-lock.yaml`.
- **Verification:** `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` now succeeds cleanly; `git diff -- pnpm-lock.yaml` contains **zero** `specifier:` lines (confirmed by grep) — only peer-dependency resolution-graph annotations differ; `tsc --noEmit -p server/tsconfig.json` passes; the full Docker build then succeeded.
- **Committed in:** `6f7897b`.
**2. [Rule 1 - Bug] `GET /api/fights/poll` was shadowed by `GET /:id`, always returned 404 — the entire polling protocol never worked**
- **Found during:** Task 2, verifying the acceptance criterion "a test bot authenticates against `GET /api/fights/poll`".
- **Issue:** `server/src/routes/fights.ts` registered the dynamic `GET /:id` route (line ~92) before the static `GET /poll` route (line ~363). Hono resolves same-segment-count route collisions in registration order, so any request to `GET /api/fights/poll` was matched as a fight-id lookup for id `"poll"`, which always 404s `{"error":"Fight not found."}` instead of the poll handler's `{"pending":false}`/`{"pending":true,...}` response. Reproduced independently on a throwaway container with a fresh DB (not the arena's seeded data) to rule out a data-specific fluke before treating it as a code bug.
- **Fix:** Moved the `GET /poll` and `POST /poll/respond` route registrations to before `GET /:id`. Verified no other GET route in the router collides in shape with `/:id` (every other dynamic route has a different segment count or method).
- **Files modified:** `server/src/routes/fights.ts`.
- **Verification:** Rebuilt the image, smoke-tested locally (`GET /api/fights/poll` for a registered bot now returns `200 {"pending":false}`; `GET /api/fights/<unknown-id>` still correctly 404s), re-pushed, then confirmed live against the rolled arena (`200 {"pending":false}`, and a full poll→queue→match→poll cycle against a real fight).
- **Committed in:** `12d4b35`.
---
**Total deviations:** 2 auto-fixed (1 Rule 3, 1 Rule 1). Both were necessary to complete this plan's own acceptance criteria — the pnpm fix to build anything at all, the route-order fix to make the polling-protocol acceptance check (and BOT-02's own prompt documentation) actually true. No scope creep beyond `botfight`'s build tooling and this one route file.
## Issues Encountered
- **Transient DNS resolution blip via the Tailscale MagicDNS resolver (`100.100.100.100`)** mid-final-verification — `curl: (6) Could not resolve host` on `botfights.archipelago-foundation.org`, resolved on retry within seconds; `nslookup`'s raw response bytes confirmed the correct A record (`146.59.87.168`) was actually being served, so this was a resolver/parsing hiccup, not a real DNS or arena outage. Not treated as a deviation — no code or config change involved, purely transient.
- **Arena-outage acceptance wording assumed no reverse proxy in front of the arena.** The plan's Task 3 acceptance criterion ("`/api/bots` returns 502 with a JSON `error` key" during an arena outage) was written when the arena was still plain-HTTP/no-NPM. Since the mid-phase DNS/TLS decision put nginx-proxy-manager in front of the canonical URL, a stopped arena now surfaces NPM's own HTML 502 page via that URL — `fetch()` inside `arena-proxy.ts` succeeds against NPM (a real, non-throwing HTTP response) and passes it through verbatim, so the app-level JSON 502 path never triggers over the canonical URL specifically. Resolved by additionally verifying the same outage against the raw fallback port (`http://146.59.87.168:9100`, no NPM), which does show `arena-proxy.ts`'s own JSON `{"error":"Arena unreachable."}` — confirming the underlying code contract still holds, and documenting both behaviors (NPM's is arguably the more correct production behavior for a proxy in front of a stopped upstream).
## User Setup Required
None — no external service configuration required for this plan's own scope.
## Next Phase Readiness
- **Plan 09-06** (manifest/catalog bump) can proceed: the registry image is `146.59.87.168:3000/lfg2025/botfights:1.2.0` (digest `sha256:854ea29965d9b7728032d6d2773765424a07d021ffac9f090431b09aed26e144`), and the canonical arena URL to write into `ARENA_UPSTREAM_URL` is `https://botfights.archipelago-foundation.org` (per the mid-phase DNS/TLS decision — supersedes the plain-HTTP `http://146.59.87.168:9100` URL 09-04-SUMMARY recorded before the user set up DNS/NPM/Let's Encrypt).
- **Plan 09-07** (demo verification) has a verified-working polling protocol to rely on now — before this plan, `GET /api/fights/poll` never worked, which would have silently broken any polling-mode cloud bot (webhook mode was unaffected).
- Four clearly-named test bots remain in the arena (`wavetest2`, `wavetest3`, `wavetest4`, `routefix` — the last from a local-only smoke-test container, never reached the arena) — anonymous, harmless, consistent with the arena's own continuous mock-bot fight loop. No cleanup action needed unless the user wants a cosmetically cleaner leaderboard before the demo.
- VPS2 disk: `df -h /` showed 31G free at session start (confirmed fixed per the task's stated facts) and the 1.2.0 push/pull added registry layers without incident — no repeat of 09-04's near-full-disk issue.
