Ettore Di Giacinto 78f4ff7934 feat(distributed): dispatch queued work as a claim queue
The three NATS queue groups jobs.new, jobs.mcp-ci.new and agent.execute are
gone. Dispatching work is now a row in a work_claims table, taken by one
frontend replica with SELECT ... FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED and driven on an agent
worker as a streaming control RPC over that worker's tunnel. Exactly-one
delivery among competing consumers is a database problem, not a broker feature.
An agent worker has no database, so it never claims; it executes what the
claiming replica hands it.

A claim must not outlive the replica that took it. The reap releases a claim
whose owner is no longer a live replica in the instances table, on the database
clock, and never asks how long the claim has been held. A job that legitimately
runs for an hour on a heartbeating replica is left alone, while a claim whose
owner stopped heartbeating becomes claimable again within one liveness window.
A replica with no advertised address has no instances row at all, so it refuses
to claim rather than have its work reaped out from under it mid-run.

The settle rule is stated once, in settleClaim, and every exit path calls it. A
transport failure releases the claim and never completes or discards it; only a
decoded reply line completes it. That line is deliberately not
cluster.IsWorkerAnswer, which accepts the stream refusals a worker's tunnel
writes before any request body reaches its control server: completing on those
would discard work that never ran.

The terminal line is persisted before the claim is completed, so a store that
refuses leaves the claim standing rather than leaving the job running for ever.
That is the dropped-result defect fixed structurally rather than by retry.

This also surfaces a pre-existing gap rather than causing one: no worker has
ever served plain task jobs, and publishing them into an empty queue group left
them running with no trace. Such a claim is now failed with a reason.

Removes QueueWorkers, --agent-subject and --agent-queue, and narrows an agent
worker's minted JWT by agent.execute and jobs.mcp-ci.new.

Requirement

In this project, the Docsy theme component is pulled in as a Hugo module, together with other module dependencies:

$ hugo mod graph

If you want to do SCSS edits and want to publish these, you need to install PostCSS

npm install

Running the website locally

Building and running the site locally requires a recent extended version of Hugo. You can find out more about how to install Hugo for your environment in our Getting started guide.

From the LocalAI repository root, run:

make docs

The Hugo configuration lives in the docs directory. To invoke Hugo directly instead, run:

cd docs
hugo server

Running a container locally

You can run docsy-example inside a Docker container, the container runs with a volume bound to the docsy-example folder. This approach doesn't require you to install any dependencies other than Docker Desktop on Windows and Mac, and Docker Compose on Linux.

  1. Build the docker image

    docker-compose build
    
  2. Run the built image

    docker-compose up
    

    NOTE: You can run both commands at once with docker-compose up --build.

  3. Verify that the service is working.

    Open your web browser and type http://localhost:1313 in your navigation bar, This opens a local instance of the docsy-example homepage. You can now make changes to the docsy example and those changes will immediately show up in your browser after you save.

Cleanup

To stop Docker Compose, on your terminal window, press Ctrl + C.

To remove the produced images run:

docker-compose rm

For more information see the Docker Compose documentation.

Troubleshooting

As you run the website locally, you may run into the following error:

➜ hugo server

INFO 2021/01/21 21:07:55 Using config file: 
Building sites … INFO 2021/01/21 21:07:55 syncing static files to /
Built in 288 ms
Error: Error building site: TOCSS: failed to transform "scss/main.scss" (text/x-scss): resource "scss/scss/main.scss_9fadf33d895a46083cdd64396b57ef68" not found in file cache

This error occurs if you have not installed the extended version of Hugo. See this section of the user guide for instructions on how to install Hugo.

Or you may encounter the following error:

➜ hugo server

Error: failed to download modules: binary with name "go" not found

This error occurs if you have not installed the go programming language on your system. See this section of the user guide for instructions on how to install go.
