fix(health): measure heap severity against the V8 heap limit - #1224
fix(health): measure heap severity against the V8 heap limit#1224inix-x wants to merge 16 commits into
Conversation
evaluateHealth divided heapUsed by heapTotal. heapTotal is the heap V8 has committed so far, not the ceiling it may grow to, and V8 sizes it to demand, so a healthy busy process sits near 100% of it more or less permanently. Since heapTotal <= heap_size_limit always holds, the ratio could only ever over-report severity, never under-report it. A live deployment reported memory_critical_97% while using 6% of its 6192 MB heap limit. That made GET /agentmemory/health return 503 on a service whose container was at 3.0 GB of an 8 GB limit with the circuit breaker closed. The snapshot now carries heapSizeLimit, measured in monitor.ts alongside process.memoryUsage(). evaluateHealth measures against it when present and falls back to heapTotal when absent, so existing callers and any persisted snapshot keep their current behaviour. The 512 MB RSS floor from rohitg00#158 stays as-is. It suppressed the alert for small processes but left the ratio wrong, so the report returned for any process above the floor.

The dashboard recomputed heapUsed / heapTotal client-side, so it carried the same over-reporting as the health thresholds did. On a process using 6% of its heap limit the gauge still rendered red and read "438 / 484 MB", contradicting the status the API now reports. It reads heapSizeLimit from the snapshot when present and falls back to heapTotal, and the label names the same ceiling the bar measures against.

The gauge rounded both operands to MB before dividing, while evaluateHealth divides the raw byte values. Near a threshold boundary the two could land on different sides of it, which defeats the point of having the gauge mirror the health status. The percentage now comes off the byte values, and the MB rounding applies only to the label the gauge displays. Refs: rohitg00#1223 Signed-off-by: Omar Gerardo <omargrard@gmail.com>
The gauge changes had no coverage, while viewer-graph-cooldown and viewer-memories-sort already assert viewer behaviour the same way. This follows that pattern: read src/viewer/index.html and assert the shape of the emitted JS. Three cases. The gauge measures against heapSizeLimit and falls back to heapTotal, the percentage divides raw byte values rather than the MB-rounded label numbers, and the rounding is applied only where the label is built. Each one fails against the previous implementation. Refs: rohitg00#1223 Signed-off-by: Omar Gerardo <omargrard@gmail.com>

Review asked why these assert on the emitted JS instead of running the gauge. The answer was not visible from the file: the viewer ships as a single HTML file with inline JS, so there is nothing to import and execute, and the two existing viewer tests solve it the same way. Refs: rohitg00#1223 Signed-off-by: Omar Gerardo <omargrard@gmail.com>
The colour was chosen from the rounded display value while evaluateHealth compares the raw one, so the two disagreed inside a whole percentage point. At 80.4% health warns, but a rounded 80 failed the gauge's `> 80` test and left the bar on the lower colour. The percentage is now kept unrounded for the comparison and rounded only for the label. Same shape as the surrounding fix: round at the display edge, never before a threshold test. Refs: rohitg00#1223 Signed-off-by: Omar Gerardo <omargrard@gmail.com>
The doc comment named the V8 call the field comes from, but monitor.ts already shows that at the only place the field is populated, so the comment restated what the code says. Refs: rohitg00#1223 Signed-off-by: Omar Gerardo <omargrard@gmail.com>

Compare the RSS floor using raw bytes and cover its boundary.
The viewer rounds snap.memory.rss to MB before evaluating rssAboveFloor, while evaluateHealth compares raw bytes. A value such as 511.5 MiB can therefore receive a warning or critical gauge color even though health evaluation considers it below the floor. Compare raw RSS bytes in src/viewer/index.html and add a boundary assertion here.
Proposed viewer fix
- var rss = Math.round((snap.memory.rss || 0) / 1024 / 1024);
+ var rssBytes = snap.memory.rss || 0;
+ var rss = Math.round(rssBytes / 1024 / 1024);
...

registerHealthMonitor has always probed the state store every 30s and measured event-loop lag, then written the snapshot to KV and returned. evaluateHealth never read kvConnectivity, so the one signal that reaches the state store was collected and discarded. Treat a failed probe as critical, and add an opt-in escalation that exits the process after 10 consecutive failures so the platform can restart it. The escalation gates on kvConnectivity specifically, not on snapshot.status: evaluateHealth raises critical from five independent conditions, so gating on the aggregate would let a CPU spike during a consolidation pass kill a process that is not wedged. It also refuses to arm until one healthy probe has been seen, which stops a store that is already stalled at boot from escalating on every container start and spending the platform's restart budget. The counter advances before the snapshot persist, not after. That persist races no timeout, and a stalled store parks it for the engine's full invocation timeout, so a counter behind it would never advance during the exact failure this exists to catch. Two source-order assertions pin that ordering, since no test constructs registerHealthMonitor and the call site is otherwise executed by nothing. Threshold is 10 rather than 3 because src/index.ts documents state::set exceeding the SDK's 30s timeout under sustained hook load, and a 5s probe cannot tell a slow store from a dead one. Also race the workers probe. Unraced it inherited the engine's 180s invocation timeout and parked the whole collection upstream of the probe. The connection block in thresholds.ts is now documented as unreachable: iii-sdk's setConnectionState only assigns a private field and emits nothing, so connectionState stays "connected" for the life of the process.
The engine is spawned detached and already had an exit handler carrying the exit code, the signal, and up to 16KB of its dying stderr. It set startupFailure, logged under vlog, and returned. startupFailure is only ever read on startup paths, so an engine that died while serving was recorded and forgotten. That is the failure this deployment actually hits. The engine owns the REST listener, the stream port, and the state store, so once it dies the surviving node process cannot serve anything, but it stays up reconnecting forever. The platform sees a live container and no HTTP, and reports the service healthy. Confirmed by inspecting a wedged container: no iii process, 3111/3112/49134 all unbound, only the viewer's loopback listener left. Report the death on stderr with its captured output and exit non-zero so a supervisor restarts the container. On by default, unlike the probe-based escalation. This acts on a process-exit event rather than a threshold, so there is no false positive to trade against. Opt out with AGENTMEMORY_EXIT_ON_ENGINE_DEATH=0. The startup grace is deliberately short. It exists so a failed spawn keeps the startup path's clearer message, and a failed spawn surfaces within a second or two. A longer window is a hole in the only mechanism that catches this: an engine dying inside it after startup completed would leave the container up and serving nothing, which is the bug itself. Verified in a container: engine killed at 11s and at 63s both exit 1 with the diagnostic; the opt-out leaves it running.
The Dockerfile installed the published @agentmemory/agentmemory package, so it never carried this repo's source. The deployed container ran 0.9.28 with none of the health fixes on this branch, and /opt/agentmemory/src did not exist. Any fork-level fix was invisible to production. Build the package here and install the packed tarball. Installing the tarball rather than copying files keeps npm placing the package at node_modules/<pkg-name>/, which reproduces the exact prefix entrypoint.sh hardcodes for the iii worker config. Moving that prefix would kill the container at boot under set -eu, so two build-time asserts now fail the build instead: one on the resolved iii-sdk version, one on the installed layout. No lockfile: .gitignore excludes it by repo policy, so it is absent from any git-based build context and npm ci cannot run. That trades build reproducibility away, which is the policy's cost rather than a choice made here. The builder upgrades npm first because node:22-slim ships 10.9.x, whose arborist fails this tree without a lockfile with "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'edgesOut')" -- reproduced on a clean git-only context. npm pack ships only the files allowlist, so the runtime install would otherwise resolve the repo's overrides unpinned. Derive them from the packed tarball so a new CVE pin cannot silently fail to reach the container. restartPolicyType becomes ALWAYS: the SIGTERM shutdown path ends in exit(0), which ON_FAILURE reads as success and would not restart. This also commits deploy settings that were already live but uncommitted: the in-memory OTEL exporter stays disabled (it drove the heap growth that crashed the container on 2026-08-23) and healthcheckTimeout stays at 60 for the BM25 startup backfill. The reason for the exporter divergence now lives next to the value rather than only in a test. The drift guard pins the four entrypoints against each other without line indices, so an insertion anywhere fails it rather than breaking it.
Keeps the reasoning that produced the two fixes, including the parts that turned out wrong, because the wrong turns are the reusable material. The first diagnosis blamed a stalled state worker inside a live process. It was an engine process death: the REST listener lives inside the engine, so it dies first rather than last, and the state::set timeout in the evidence is a consequence of the engine already being gone. That misreading came from one discarded assumption. The ECONNREFUSED reconnect stream was written off as background noise on the belief it starts at boot. It does not, and the arithmetic settles it: the SDK caps a reconnect attempt at 39 seconds, while one deployment logged attempt 807 over a span needing 70.9 seconds per attempt. Dividing elapsed time by the attempt number dates the outage to within minutes, and that signal sits in the log buffer already. Also corrected: a once-per-boot cap that bounds nothing at the deployment level because the exits are the subshell's, a SIGTERM grace justified as protecting a store it cannot reach, an acceptance example that contradicted the code, and a verification command that grepped a path the same document elsewhere says does not exist.

Supervise the Docker engine container instead of the detached Docker client.
docker compose up -d exits with code 0 after it starts the containers. This handler then has no child process that represents the engine lifetime. If the engine container dies later, the Node process stays alive.
Add Docker-specific container exit monitoring, or run a long-lived supervisor, before treating Docker mode as covered by engine-death recovery.

saveShardedIndex wrote each new generation's shards, published a manifest naming it, then deleted the previous generation only when its manifest read had succeeded. That read is the first thing the function does, and it fails under exactly the load that makes saves slow, so `previous` became null and the whole preceding generation was stranded. Nothing revisits it: a later save only inspects its own predecessor, and loadShardedData reads only the shards the current manifest lists. Two further paths reached the same state. The manifest catch block ends in a throw, so a write that threw after committing skipped the cleanup below it. And a kill between the first shard write and the cleanup left a generation nothing had recorded. Verified on a deployed store: 8 dead BM25 generations, 339 MB, 33.5% of a 1013 MB store, the oldest 13 days old, against 35 MB of actual observations. Every orphan's generation id decodes to a restart or an incident. Record each generation in a ledger beside its manifest, written before the first shard write, and reclaim from it after publish and again on load. StateKV lists keys within a scope and never scopes by prefix, so a generation that is not recorded cannot be found again by anything. Serialise saves. scheduleSave fires save() unawaited from a timer while flushIndexSave awaits save() on every delete path, and stop() clears the timer without awaiting a save already running, so saves overlap by construction. Two of them read-modify-writing one ledger drop each other's entries, and the one that publishes second reclaims the shards the first is still writing, leaving it to publish a manifest naming data that is already gone. The queue never coalesces: flushIndexSave awaits save() to make a delete durable, so returning an in-flight promise that started before the delete would report success for a snapshot without it. The load-time reclaim joins the same queue. An unreadable ledger skips that cycle's tracking and reclaim rather than failing the save. state::get timing out is the condition this bug appears under, and aborting there would stop persisting the index entirely, which costs a full-corpus rebuild. A ledger whose shape is not recognised is left untouched, never rewritten. Reclaim keeps malformed entries instead of iterating them, so a GC step can never fail a load, and emits one audit row per sweep rather than one per shard, per the policy in src/functions/audit.ts. Each index saves independently, since one try around both would let a BM25 failure stop the vector index persisting, and a lost vector index is never rebuilt: both rebuild triggers key on the BM25 size. A failed delete keeps its shards listed and retries, rather than stranding them. The ledger cannot discover generations orphaned before it existed; those need a one-time reclaim. Closes rohitg00#1115
…failures
ResilientProvider wrapped the LLM provider with a circuit breaker and nothing
else. There was no semaphore, no queue and no concurrency ceiling anywhere on
the provider path, so every captured observation fired compress() immediately.
Under multi-subagent load that is dozens of simultaneous upstream calls, and the
provider answered exactly as you would expect:
OpenAI API error (429): {"error":"too many concurrent requests"}
Those 429s were then fed to the breaker. At the configured threshold of three
failures in sixty seconds it opened, and for the next thirty seconds every
compression failed fast with circuit_breaker_open while the provider was
perfectly healthy and merely busy. Observed in production: continuous
circuit_breaker_open on compression, so observations were captured but never
compressed.
Two changes, and the second matters as much as the first.
Bound the number of in-flight calls, default four and overridable per instance
or with AGENTMEMORY_MAX_PROVIDER_CONCURRENCY. The semaphore hands a released
slot directly to the next waiter instead of decrementing and letting waiters
race for the opening, and releases in a finally so a throw cannot leak a slot
and deadlock everything queued behind it.
Stop recording a rate-limit response as a breaker failure. A 429 says slow down,
not that the provider is broken; treating backpressure as a fault is what
converted a busy upstream into a thirty-second outage. Genuine failures still
open the breaker, and the breaker is still checked before queueing so an open
circuit fails fast rather than occupying a slot.
Tests cover peak concurrency under a burst of 24 calls, slot release on the
error path, that 429s leave the breaker closed, and that real errors still open
it. Each was run against the unmodified source first: peak concurrency measured
24 against a limit of 3, and the breaker measured open where it should have been
closed.
Reading the process environment directly bypassed the user-level agentmemory config file, which is the surface every sibling provider goes through (minimax.ts, providers/index.ts and _fetch.ts all use getEnvVar). Same line count, and it closes a real gap: an operator setting the limit there would have seen it silently ignored. Drop the breaker options passthrough. Nothing in production supplies it, all three constructions in providers/index.ts are bare, and every test that passed it was restating a default. CircuitBreakerOptions goes back to being private. Collapse the one-field options interface into an inline type, merge the two rate-limit regexes into one with an identical truth table, and cut the comments that restated the commit message. The release-handoff note stays: it is design rationale, not narrative. Fold the completion assertion into the concurrency test, which already proved it by resolving all 24 calls, and drop the maxConcurrent arguments that were no-ops against sequentially awaited calls. The one in the slot-release test stays, because at the default of 4 a leaked slot would not deadlock and that test would pass despite the bug.
…he graph agentmemory://graph/stats listed every node and every edge in order to produce four aggregate numbers. On a real corpus that is a multi-hundred-megabyte frame over the engine transport, against the 16 MiB limit this repo already defines in state/frame-guard.ts. Measured on a deployed instance: the two scopes hold 112 MB and 80 MB, five and seven times the limit, so the read cannot succeed — it closes the worker connection with 1009 Message Too Big every time. The observed rate was 3.8 to 5.1 kills per minute, each followed by a reconnect that registers a fresh worker id. The counts were already precomputed. KV.graphSnapshot carries totalNodes, totalEdges, nodesByType and edgesByType in a single small key, and the comment introducing it in state/schema.ts names /graph/stats as the caller it was built to spare. This resource simply never adopted it. An absent snapshot now reports zeros with pending: true rather than falling back to enumeration. The fallback is the failure mode, so there is no version of it worth keeping. Other enumerating callers remain and need separate treatment: cascade.ts needs a sourceObservationId index before it can stop scanning, and the export route in api.ts guards its response size but not the inbound read that already happened.
AGENTS.md coding standards forbid comments that explain what code does. KV.graphSnapshot and the `pending: true` spread already say what the two blocks were narrating, so they carried no information the names do not. The rationale is not lost. The frame-limit failure mode and the deliberate refusal to fall back to enumeration are both recorded in the parent commit's message and in the PR body, which is where a reader looking for why will go. Comment-only: nine lines removed, none added, no executable statement touched.
What
evaluateHealthmeasured memory severity asheapUsed / heapTotal.heapTotalis the heap V8 has committed so far, not the ceiling it may grow to, and V8 sizes it to demand, so a healthy busy process sits near 100% of it more or less permanently. SinceheapTotal <= heap_size_limitalways holds, that ratio could only ever over-report severity, never under-report it.HealthSnapshot.memorynow carries an optionalheapSizeLimit, measured inmonitor.tsnext toprocess.memoryUsage().evaluateHealthmeasures against it when present and falls back toheapTotalwhen absent, so existing callers and any persisted snapshot keep their current behaviour.The viewer recomputed the same ratio client-side for its HEAP gauge, so that gets the same correction in a second commit.
