The mirror carries the tagOnDeploy feature, its tests, and the zstart
gitPull fix from the private tree. Twelve published references to
current product names and internal issue numbers are reworded
generically, the denylist learns the current spellings (a dot or hyphen
broke the word, an underscore hid the boundary), and planted cases prove
the suite now sees them. CHECKSUMS.txt regenerated.

zdeploy, zec2 and zec2online now prefer
docker exec <viaProxy> curl http://<upstream>/api/build-version
when a project sets verify.viaProxy and verify.upstream.
Two problems it closes. A build stamp is something many sites deliberately
do not serve publicly, and a checker that reads it over the public URL stops
working the moment that endpoint is blocked -- reporting "unknown", which is
indistinguishable from "could not reach it". And the proxy answers from
whichever vhost matches the Host header, so a container with no public route
was getting another site's version back and failing deploys that had worked.
Reading it from a container on the shared network also exercises the real
HTTP path, so it proves the app is serving rather than that its database
knows a version. Purely additive: a project without those two keys behaves
exactly as before.
zec2 gains $PemKey and $SshTarget, which it had no need of until now -- the
read is inside a try/catch, so without them it would throw, be swallowed,
and fall through silently.
CHECKSUMS.txt regenerated (zchecksums -Update), zconfig.example.json
documents both shapes of the verify block, and CHANGELOG.md carries its
plain-text twin.
Pester: 231 passed, 0 failed -- including the sanitization suite.
* fix(zdeploy): verify Next.js deploys on the server, not the public IP
The nextjs handler verified by requesting http://<ec2-ip>:<prod-port>/.
A compose stack behind the edge proxy normally publishes to 127.0.0.1
only, so that request can never be answered and every deploy ended with
"is the port open in the security group?" — pointing at a firewall rule
for an app that was already serving fine. No security-group change could
have made that probe succeed, which is what made the warning actively
harmful: it named the one fix guaranteed not to work, and opening the
port would have exposed the app directly, bypassing the proxy and TLS.
The nextjs handler now uses the precedence the python handler already
used: verify.port (curl localhost on the server) -> domain (Host-header
check through the edge proxy) -> an honest "NOT verified" instead of a
misleading warning.
Also follow redirects in the health check. An app whose "/" answers 307
(Next.js -> /login) returns a body of a few bytes that read as "not
ready"; -L fetches the page that actually renders. No effect on projects
that point verify.path at a plain 200 endpoint such as /health.
The example config now documents the verify block on the nextjs project,
and CHECKSUMS.txt is regenerated for the changed script.
* fix(zdeploy): truncate the health-check body in the PASS line
Pointing the nextjs handler at Test-DeployHealth means the body is now
often an HTML page, not a line of JSON, so the PASS line dumped ~10 KB
of markup into the deploy output and buried everything after it.
Match on the full body as before, but print at most 200 characters plus
the byte count. A /health endpoint still prints in full.
zstart only warns when a python project has no venv; zsetup is the
command that provisions one. For a python project it creates <root>/.venv
and installs deps; for vite/nextjs it runs npm install. Idempotent.
The pip install command comes from the project's optional "install"
config field (e.g. "-e backend" for deps in a subfolder, "-r reqs.txt"),
or is auto-detected from a root pyproject.toml/setup.py ("-e .") or
requirements.txt ("-r requirements.txt"). Bash + PowerShell + .cmd
wrapper, documented in the README and example configs.
* feat(zstart): support uvicorn/ASGI apps via a startApp config field
Python projects could only be started as `python -m <startModule>`, so
FastAPI/ASGI apps that run under uvicorn (like evo-ai:
`uvicorn app.main:app`) couldn't be started by zstart in either port.
Add an optional `startApp` field. When set, zstart runs
`uvicorn <startApp> --host <bind-host> --port <ports.dev> --reload` via
the venv python's -m (no PATH juggling), integrating zstart's existing
bind-host and dev-port handling. startApp takes precedence over
startModule; a python project still needs one or the other. Applied to
bash and PowerShell, documented in the README + example configs.
* feat(zstart): warn when falling back to system python (no project venv)
A python project with no .venv (or only a Windows .venv when on WSL)
silently ran under the system interpreter, which usually lacks the
project's deps - producing a cryptic ModuleNotFoundError far from the
cause. Now zstart prints a clear warning naming the missing venv and the
one-liner to create it, before starting. Bash + PowerShell.
* fix(bash): zstart --detached no longer hangs on the tracking FIFO
Detached mode forked the long-lived server while it still inherited the
ztokens tracking fds (the capture FIFO on 1/2, saved stdout/stderr on
3/4). The parent's EXIT-trap footer runs `tee` on that FIFO and waits for
EOF, which never came while the server held it open - so `zstart
--detached` (and zstartd / zrestart --detached) hung instead of
returning. detach() now redirects stdin<-/dev/null, stdout/stderr->log
and closes fd 3/4 before exec'ing the server. Verified on WSL: detached
returns in 0s and the server still boots.
* fix(zstart): git-pull pre-step can't hang on a credential prompt
start.gitPull ran `git pull --ff-only` before starting the server; in an
environment with no cached git credentials (e.g. WSL against an HTTPS
GitHub remote) git prompted "Username for 'https://github.com':" and the
whole start blocked on stdin. Run the pull with GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0 so
it fails fast, log a clear "auto-pull skipped" note, and start with the
current checkout. Bash + PowerShell.
The project-directory replacement preserved only ./.env, silently
destroying every other server-side file (.env.db, staged signing keys,
certs) on every deploy — and the vite kind preserved nothing at all.
- preserve all .env* files at the project root by default
- new deploy.preserve array for additional files/directories
- implemented via tar to the home dir before the wipe, extract after
the unzip; server-side copies win over zip contents (same semantics
./.env always had)
- helpers deliberately avoid embedded quotes and $( ): PowerShell 5.1
strips embedded double quotes when passing args to ssh.exe, which
silently corrupts remote commands (discovered when v1 of this fix
failed exactly that way)
Fixes#2
Projects not published through the edge proxy had a false-PASS problem:
the fallback reachability check hit http://<server-ip>/, which the
proxy's default vhost happily answers for apps that never started.
- new Test-DeployHealth: checks the app FROM the server over SSH
(curl localhost:<port><path>), optional expected substring
- opt in per project: "verify": { "port", "path", "expect" }
- projects with neither domain nor verify are reported NOT verified
instead of green-lighting the proxy's default page
- example config + README + changelog updated
Config-driven PowerShell scripts to run infrastructure tasks (deploy, restart, backup, diagnostics) yourself instead of having an AI agent orchestrate them, to save agent tokens. Environment specifics live in zconfig.json (gitignored).
