Noderax Agent 2026.5.3

Added

  • Added manual node location overrides and optional IPinfo public-IP geolocation fallback for non-cloud hosts, with public-IP lookup disabled unless explicitly configured.

Noderax Agent 2026.5.2

Fixed

  • Improved cloud metadata location detection by allowing slower metadata services, bypassing HTTP proxy settings for link-local metadata calls, and falling back to AWS IMDSv1 when IMDSv2 token retrieval is unavailable.
  • Added delayed cloud metadata retries after startup and re-sent realtime authentication when location is discovered after the initial socket connection.

Noderax Agent 2026.5.1

Added

  • Added cloud metadata location detection for AWS, GCP, and Azure so agents can report provider, region, and zone when the host metadata service is available.
  • Added node location reporting to interactive enrollment, bootstrap enrollment, and realtime authentication payloads so the control plane can keep node location metadata current.

Noderax Agent 1.0.7

Noderax Agent 1.0.7

Added

  • Added support for custom API TLS trust roots through api_tls_ca_file in config files and NODERAX_API_TLS_CA_FILE / API_TLS_CA_FILE environment overrides.

Changed

  • Changed API client construction to initialize with system CA roots plus optional custom CA bundle loading, and enforced TLS minVersion at TLS 1.2 for outbound API requests.
  • Changed enrollment and managed update code paths to use error-returning API client initialization so TLS CA configuration issues are surfaced before network operations start.

Fixed

  • Fixed startup, install, bootstrap, and managed update flows to fail fast with explicit configure API client errors when API TLS CA files are unreadable or invalid.

Noderax Agent 1.0.6

Noderax Agent 1.0.6

Added

  • Added a new log.scan task type with payload validation for mode and sourcePresetId, including optional root execution guarded by task scope checks.
  • Added noderax-agent log-scan --request <path> to execute log scan requests from a JSON file and return structured JSON results for task parsing.
  • Added a dedicated log scanning engine that supports preset sources (syslog, auth.log, kern.log, noderax-agent) with preview and monitor modes, source-aware cursor handling, and hard limits for lines, bytes, and backfill.

Fixed

  • Task lifecycle log shipping now truncates oversized log lines to the API-safe limit and retries queued-state conflicts before failing, reducing cases where tasks appear stuck in queued without visible progress.
  • Root log.scan execution now normalizes legacy task scope requests to operational scope and uses a dedicated operational helper path, so log scan operations no longer depend on task-root grants.
  • Agents now re-apply an already-selected root access profile when older persisted state lacks the latest revision marker, allowing updated sudoers rules for operational log scan helpers to self-heal after upgrade.
  • Monitor-mode file scans now detect log rotation (inode change) and truncation (offset beyond file size), automatically reset the cursor, replay tail lines, and emit warning metadata for downstream diagnostics.
  • Log scan task result parsing now reports explicit system errors when command output is empty or invalid JSON, improving failure visibility in task logs.

Noderax Agent 1.0.5

Noderax Agent 1.0.5

Fixed

  • Operational root panel actions now stay locked until the agent reports the profile as applied, preventing package install/remove, apt-get update, restart, and reboot requests from being queued while sync is still pending or failed.
  • Package purge requests now queue the dedicated packagePurge task type instead of overloading packageRemove, so purge behavior stays consistent from the API through agent execution and task history.
  • Linux base sudoers rules now explicitly allow apply operational_task, apply operational_terminal, and apply task_terminal, allowing composite root profiles to reconcile correctly on hosts with strict sudo argument matching.
  • Root access profile changes now push to connected agents immediately and refresh the reported applied state without waiting for the next long-poll cycle, so profile switches no longer appear stuck after being changed in the panel.

Noderax Agent 1.0.4

Noderax Agent 1.0.4

Fixed

  • Interactive enrollment now includes platformVersion and kernelVersion in additionalInfo so approved nodes can report these values to the platform instead of appearing as Unknown in node detail views.
  • Realtime agent.auth now includes platformVersion and kernelVersion, allowing the control plane to refresh node platform/kernel metadata even when nodes rely on realtime reconnects instead of enrollment refresh.
  • Managed self-update now refreshes the Linux root-profile helper and base sudoers file during binary replacement, preventing nodes from getting stuck with root profile helper is not installed after an update.
  • Base sudoers rules now list explicit root-profile helper commands (apply off|operational|task|terminal|all) for better compatibility with sudo-rs argument matching.
  • Linux package mutations now use a dedicated privileged helper and request-file handoff so install, remove, purge, and operational apt-get update continue working on hosts that enforce strict sudo-rs argument matching.
  • Root task execution now uses a dedicated task-root helper handoff path, avoiding broad wildcard sudo command patterns that fail on sudo-rs deployments.
  • Root access profile handling now supports composite profile combinations (operational_task, operational_terminal, task_terminal) so mixed capability sets are applied and validated consistently.

Noderax Agent 1.0.3

Noderax Agent 1.0.3

Added

  • Added API-synced root access profile management on the agent with five profiles: off, operational, task, terminal, and all.
  • Added persisted root-access reconciliation state (appliedProfile, lastAppliedAt, lastError) so the agent can report applied status and recover cleanly across restarts.
  • Added root-access sync fields to control-plane contracts used by the agent (agent.auth, agent.auth.ack, and HTTP task claim request/response) so desired profile snapshots are delivered even when no task is returned.
  • Added a dedicated Linux root-profile helper (/usr/local/libexec/noderax-agent-root-profile) that renders profile-specific sudo rules in /etc/sudoers.d/noderax-agent-root-access.
  • Added root terminal start support via realtime runAsRoot flags with runtime checks that only allow root sessions for terminal or all.

Changed

  • Changed installer and agentctl install privilege setup to a helper-based model: static sudoers now only grants access to the self-update helper and root-profile helper.
  • Changed default host posture to root access off at install time by applying the profile immediately during setup.
  • Extended shell.exec payload handling with runAsRoot and rootScope (task | operational) and enforced scope checks against the currently applied profile.
  • Restricted operational root execution to curated commands (apt-get update, reboot, and systemctl restart noderax-agent) instead of generic elevated shell execution.

Security

  • Removed legacy default passwordless package-mutation sudo grants from bootstrap/install flow and replaced them with API-driven profile reconciliation.

Noderax Agent 1.0.2

Noderax Agent 1.0.2

Added

  • Added noderax-agent version and noderax-agent --version output so operators can quickly verify the running build metadata during fleet update tests.

Noderax Agent 1.0.1

02 Apr 08:32

Choose a tag to compare

Noderax Agent 1.0.1

Fixed

  • Fleet self-update now hands off through a request-file based privileged helper so rollout updates work on hosts that ship sudo-rs, where sudoers wildcard argument matching is more restrictive than classic sudo.
  • Managed self-update now refreshes the installed privileged helper during binary replacement so later rollouts keep using the corrected handoff path.
