A red build is a verdict on the config: a config merge queues its own build and
deploy. A build that gave no verdict isn't, so the ten-minute timer declares
it again, without a meta update when the latest update succeeded, until the
builder answers. That covers a controller that updates before its builder
Only `nix` exiting with an error twice is a verdict on the config. The first
error may be a fetch hiccup inside `nix`, so the controller builds once more
without reading `nix`'s output. A red build holds the deploy until a config
merge queues its own build and deploy, and the pin fan-out still records the
pin, so one red agent doesn't resend the healthy ones. Anything else gave no
verdict, so the timer declares a build and deploy again every ten minutes,
without a meta update when the latest update succeeded, and the attempt count
stays where it was. That covers a controller that updates before its builder
host does: the old builder has no subscriber for the new subject, so the
controller gets no responders at once, and the deploys go out after the builder
updates. Each retry adds a build and deploy node per affected agent while the
builder stays away.
builder stays away. The build node carries the attempt count as `attempt`.
The controller exports the gauge `swarm.deploys.held`: the agents whose latest
build failed, with the label `reason` set to `red` or `retrying`. The Grafana
alert `hh-deploys-held` fires when the sum stays above zero for 30 minutes, so
a dead builder or a red config shows in Grafana before anyone notices an agent
not updating.
On a built reply the controller writes the agent's key in the `agent-closures`
