pptx704 866f3ac012 Consolidate host agent path env vars into single AGENT_FILES_ROOTDIR
Replace AGENT_KERNEL_PATH, AGENT_IMAGES_PATH, AGENT_SANDBOXES_PATH,
AGENT_SNAPSHOTS_PATH, and AGENT_TOKEN_FILE with a single
AGENT_FILES_ROOTDIR (default /var/lib/wrenn) that derives all
subdirectory paths automatically.

# Wrenn Sandbox
MicroVM-based code execution platform. Firecracker VMs, not containers. Pool-based pricing, persistent sandboxes, Python/TS/Go SDKs.
## Deployment
### Prerequisites
- Linux host with `/dev/kvm` access (bare metal or nested virt)
- Firecracker binary at `/usr/local/bin/firecracker`
- PostgreSQL
- Go 1.25+
### Build
```bash
make build # outputs to builds/
```
Produces three binaries: `wrenn-cp` (control plane), `wrenn-agent` (host agent), `envd` (guest agent).
### Host setup
The host agent machine needs:
```bash
# Kernel for guest VMs
mkdir -p /var/lib/wrenn/kernels
# Place a vmlinux kernel at /var/lib/wrenn/kernels/vmlinux
# Rootfs images
mkdir -p /var/lib/wrenn/images
# Build or place .ext4 rootfs images (e.g., minimal.ext4)
# Sandbox working directory
mkdir -p /var/lib/wrenn/sandboxes
# Snapshots directory
mkdir -p /var/lib/wrenn/snapshots
# Enable IP forwarding
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
```
### Configure
Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and edit:
```bash
# Required
DATABASE_URL=postgres://wrenn:wrenn@localhost:5432/wrenn?sslmode=disable
# Control plane
CP_LISTEN_ADDR=:8000
CP_HOST_AGENT_ADDR=http://localhost:50051
# Host agent
AGENT_LISTEN_ADDR=:50051
AGENT_FILES_ROOTDIR=/var/lib/wrenn
```
### Run
```bash
# Apply database migrations
make migrate-up
# Start control plane
./builds/wrenn-cp
```
Control plane listens on `CP_LISTEN_ADDR` (default `:8000`).
### Host registration
Hosts must be registered with the control plane before they can serve sandboxes.
1. **Create a host record** (via API or admin UI):
```bash
# As an admin (JWT auth)
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/hosts \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $JWT_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"type": "regular"}'
```
This returns a `registration_token` (valid for 1 hour).
2. **Start the host agent** with the registration token and its externally-reachable address:
```bash
sudo AGENT_CP_URL=http://cp-host:8000 \
./builds/wrenn-agent \
--register <token-from-step-1> \
--address 10.0.1.5:50051
```
On first startup the agent sends its specs (arch, CPU, memory, disk) to the control plane, receives a long-lived host JWT, and saves it to `$AGENT_FILES_ROOTDIR/host-token`.
3. **Subsequent startups** don't need `--register` — the agent loads the saved JWT automatically:
```bash
sudo AGENT_CP_URL=http://cp-host:8000 \
./builds/wrenn-agent --address 10.0.1.5:50051
```
4. **If registration fails** (e.g., network error after token was consumed), regenerate a token:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/hosts/$HOST_ID/token \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $JWT_TOKEN"
```
Then restart the agent with the new token.
The agent sends heartbeats to the control plane every 30 seconds. Host agent listens on `AGENT_LISTEN_ADDR` (default `:50051`).
### Rootfs images
envd must be baked into every rootfs image. After building:
```bash
make build-envd
bash scripts/update-debug-rootfs.sh /var/lib/wrenn/images/minimal.ext4
```
## Development
```bash
make dev # Start PostgreSQL (Docker), run migrations, start control plane
make dev-agent # Start host agent (separate terminal, sudo)
make check # fmt + vet + lint + test
```
