feat(prism): resume mid-flight Lium jobs across control-plane restart - #140
Conversation
Detach harness under setsid so GPU work survives master bounce; boot reconcile reattaches when the pod is alive and the BYOK seal is present, failing closed only when unreattachable.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR replaces streaming evaluation with detached harness execution, adds harness probing and resumption, changes orphan reconciliation to resume live pods, centralizes terminal handling, and updates orchestration documentation and tests. ChangesDetached evaluation recovery

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Persist the pre-measure checkpoint when a mid-pod row re-screens.
The guard on Line 645 uses mid_pod_resume(row), not the source of the verdicts. A mid-pod row that lacks stored similarity or review (a row created before this change, or a row whose checkpoint write failed) falls through to pre_pod_screens on Line 644, and then skips the checkpoint write. The next control-plane restart re-runs the copy gate, the similarity call, and the LLM review for that row again, and spends OpenRouter budget again.
Key the checkpoint write on whether the verdicts were reused instead.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
truncate can panic on multi-byte log tails.
s[s.len().saturating_sub(max)..] slices by byte offset. Harness logs contain arbitrary miner output, so the offset can land inside a multi-byte UTF-8 sequence and String slicing panics. This function runs on every terminal parse and every classify_log failure path, so a single non-ASCII character near the cut point aborts the poll task.
truncate_tail in crates/prism-lium/src/ssh.rs (lines 345-354) already advances to a char boundary. Apply the same guard here.

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
The poll loop performs a pod API call plus two SSH sessions every 20 seconds.
harvest_logs_inner calls resolve_ssh_target, which issues GET /pods/{instance_id}, and then opens its own SSH session. The probe opens a second SSH session. For a train cap of several hours this is thousands of Lium API calls and SSH connections per submission, and the cost scales with concurrent submissions. Lium rate limiting already required the RentPool and 429 backoff in this file, so added API pressure raises the risk of 429 storms.
target and key are already available in this function. Reuse them for the log tail and merge the probe and tail into one SSH command.

Transient API failures report a live pod as not running, which terminates recoverable jobs.
instance_running_live maps every LiumError::Api to Ok(false). request returns LiumError::Api for any non-success status, including 429 after the retry budget and 5xx. The consumer in crates/prism-orphan/src/reconcile.rs (lines 164-168) treats false as "pod gone": try_resume returns Ok(false), the reconciler then calls terminate, and fail_orphan marks the submission failed. A single 429 during boot reconciliation therefore destroys a running pod and its in-flight measurement.
Only 404-style "not found" answers should mean "not running". Propagate other API errors so the reconciler logs the probe failure and leaves the row alone.

resume_eval returns a bpb that is unrelated to the submission.
exec_eval derives the deterministic bpb from sha256(architecture_py || training_py || tree_blob). resume_eval passes the literals "resume" and "resume", so every resumed submission receives the same constant bpb, independent of the miner source. Local and staging sim E2E runs of the resume path then score submissions with a value that does not correspond to their code, and two different miners resume to identical scores.
Record the inputs at exec_eval time and replay them on resume.
🐛 Proposed fix: replay the recorded submission inputs
Add a per-pod input record next to pods:
// struct SimLiumBackend
last_inputs:Mutex<HashMap<String,(String,String,Option<Vec<u8>>)>>,Store it in exec_eval (change _instance_id to instance_id):
ifletOk(mut m) = self.last_inputs.lock(){
m.insert(
instance_id.to_owned(),(architecture_py.to_owned(), training_py.to_owned(), tree_blob.map(<[u8]>::to_vec)),);}Then replay it:
async fn resume_eval(&self, instance_id: &str) -> Result<RemoteExecResult, LiumError> {
if !self.instance_running(instance_id).await? {
return Err(LiumError::Exec(format!(
"{}: sim pod gone",
crate::HARNESS_ABSENT
)));
}
- // Sim has no detached log; treat resume as a fresh deterministic eval.- self.exec_eval(instance_id, "resume", "resume", None).await+ // Sim has no detached log; replay the recorded inputs so the resumed+ // bpb matches the submission under test.+ let recorded = self+ .last_inputs+ .lock()+ .map_err(|_| LiumError::Api("sim lock poisoned".into()))?+ .get(instance_id)+ .cloned();+ let Some((arch, train, tree)) = recorded else {+ return Err(LiumError::Exec(format!(+ "{}: sim pod has no recorded harness inputs",+ crate::HARNESS_ABSENT+ )));+ };+ self.exec_eval(instance_id, &arch, &train, tree.as_deref())+ .await
}The HARNESS_ABSENT fallback in crates/prism-challenge/src/orchestrator.rs (lines 725-731) then re-runs exec_eval with the real submission when no record exists, which keeps the sim path faithful to the live path.
As per coding guidelines: "Challenge verification must simulate an end-to-end submission, including happy-path intake, failure probes, challenge-specific validation, leaf emission, raw weight submission, sealing, and confirmation of sealed: true; process health checks alone are insufficient."

SimLiumBackend::resume_eval to replay the original submission inputs instead of

Persist missing pre-measure checkpoints before reattaching.
mid_pod_resume returns true when pod_id is set, even if review or similarity is missing. In crates/prism-challenge/src/orchestrator.rs, Lines 634-664, that state reruns pre_pod_screens but skips persistence because !mid_pod_resume(row) is false. The row can repeat screening after every restart without receiving durable checkpoints.
Persist fresh screening results whenever either checkpoint is missing, or tighten this predicate so it returns true only after both checkpoints exist. Add a regression test for a pod row with missing review and similarity.
The supplied orchestrator context confirms this cross-file behavior.

mid_pod_resume and the surrounding reattachment flow so rows with a pod_id but

Add a regression test covering a pod row missing both review and similarity.

Record the pending staging validation for the resume path.
The row keeps the status done, which the legend defines as "Implemented, tested, wired into a running binary." The PR states that staging validation and production promotion are still pending, and that jobs launched before this deployment stay non-resumable over SSH disconnects. Add that caveat to this row or to the "Known gaps" table so the matrix stays honest.
As per coding guidelines: "Treat normative documentation—including architecture files, frozen specifications, threat and operator-security documents, completeness status, runbooks, and external-miner/—as the source of truth for contracts, operations, and status."
