First Windows parity milestone (DESIGN-WINDOWS.md §13 build order item 1).
- Add a PlatformOps abstraction so command dispatch is OS-neutral:
- linuxPlatformOps keeps today's systemctl/journalctl/bash behavior (deliberately
untagged so shared dispatch tests run on Windows CI)
- windowsPlatformOps maps reboot/shutdown to shutdown.exe, service control to
sc.exe (stop+start for restart), fetch_logs to Get-WinEvent, arbitrary_bash to
powershell -EncodedCommand (byte-exact under arbitrary quoting), and declines
configure_ldap (Windows logon goes through OpenCredential)
- Run theta-agent as a Windows service (x/sys/windows/svc): SYSTEM auto-start,
SCM stop/shutdown handling; CLI install-service/remove-service via svc/mgr
- Add theta-agent-helper (session-0 companion): lock/display_off/logout via
user32/wtsapi32, and staged self-update (wait for service stop, swap the
locked exe, sc start)
- Self-update becomes platform-aware: Linux renames over the running binary;
Windows stages .new and hands the swap to the helper (running exe is locked)
- Platform paths: agent.yml and tray.sock under %ProgramData%\Theta42 (the
service runs as SYSTEM while the tray runs as the user, so the per-user temp
dir no longer works for tray IPC); LDAP byte-pump falls back to TCP loopback
- config: service_name, desktop_helper, public_ip_detect (air-gap: skips
external public-IP lookups in telemetry + home monitor), wireguard block
- cli: platform-aware config path + self-update artifact name + service restart
- tests: dispatch tests pin linuxPlatformOps; 0600 mode assertions gated to
POSIX so the suite is green on Windows
Rebuilds all tracked dist binaries (v2.1.0).
Installing the agent with one key is now all it takes to add a host.
New `join_key` config field, presented while auth_token is empty. The SSO
exchanges it for this agent's own token and the public key it must pin,
both delivered in the config frame; the agent persists them and blanks
the join key. Nothing has to be copied between two machines by hand.
PersistEnrollment rewrites only the credential lines -- line-based rather
than a YAML round-trip -- so operator comments, the capability matrix and
formatting survive. It re-reads afterwards so the credential is live
without a restart, and keeps the file 0600.
The connect URL carries ?hostname= so a self-enrolling host is named
after itself, and the agent refuses to connect at all (with a long
back-off) when it has no credential rather than presenting an empty one.
