Replace the existing auto-destroy TTL behavior with auto-pause: when a
sandbox exceeds its timeout_sec of inactivity, the TTL reaper now pauses
it (snapshot + teardown) instead of destroying it, preserving the ability
to resume later.
Key changes:
- TTL reaper calls Pause instead of Destroy, with fallback to Destroy if
pause fails (e.g. Firecracker process already gone)
- New PingSandbox RPC resets the in-memory LastActiveAt timer
- New POST /v1/sandboxes/{id}/ping REST endpoint resets both agent memory
and DB last_active_at
- ListSandboxes RPC now includes auto_paused_sandbox_ids so the reconciler
can distinguish auto-paused sandboxes from crashed ones in a single call
- Reconciler polls every 5s (was 30s) and marks auto-paused as "paused"
vs orphaned as "stopped"
- Resume RPC accepts timeout_sec from DB so TTL survives pause/resume cycles
- Reaper checks every 2s (was 10s) and uses a detached context to avoid
incomplete pauses on app shutdown
- Default timeout_sec changed from 300 to 0 (no auto-pause unless requested)
Implement full snapshot lifecycle: pause (snapshot + free resources),
resume (UFFD-based lazy restore), and named snapshot templates that
can spawn new sandboxes from frozen VM state.
Key changes:
- Snapshot header system with generational diff mapping (inspired by e2b)
- UFFD server for lazy page fault handling during snapshot restore
- Stable rootfs symlink path (/tmp/fc-vm/) for snapshot compatibility
- Templates DB table and CRUD API endpoints (POST/GET/DELETE /v1/snapshots)
- CreateSnapshot/DeleteSnapshot RPCs in hostagent proto
- Reconciler excludes paused sandboxes (expected absent from host agent)
- Snapshot templates lock vcpus/memory to baked-in values
- Proper cleanup of uffd sockets and pause snapshot files on destroy
Add WebSocket-based streaming exec endpoint and streaming file
upload/download endpoints to the control plane API. Includes new
host agent RPC methods (ExecStream, StreamWriteFile, StreamReadFile),
envd client streaming support, and OpenAPI spec updates.
- REST API (chi router): sandbox CRUD, exec, pause/resume, file write/read
- PostgreSQL persistence via pgx/v5 + sqlc (sandboxes table with goose migration)
- Connect RPC client to host agent for all VM operations
- Reconciler syncs host agent state with DB every 30s (detects TTL-reaped sandboxes)
- OpenAPI 3.1 spec served at /openapi.yaml, Swagger UI at /docs
- Added WriteFile/ReadFile RPCs to hostagent proto and implementations
- File upload via multipart form, download via JSON body POST
- sandbox_id propagated from control plane to host agent on create
Implement the host agent as a Connect RPC server that orchestrates
sandbox creation, destruction, pause/resume, and command execution.
Includes sandbox manager with TTL-based reaper, network slot allocator,
rootfs cloning, hostagent proto definition with generated stubs, and
test/debug scripts. Fix Firecracker process lifetime bug where VM was
tied to HTTP request context instead of background context.
