Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelNameLegacy descriptor with empty ModelName surfaces the recovery command verbatim.
TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptorDefensive: nil and empty-name descriptors error rather than panic.
TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffersSource-level guard: cmd/obol/main.go's stack up Action must call resumeSellOffers, AND it must do so AFTER stack.Up (running it before sees no kubeconfig and skips every offer silently).

Follow-ups not in this PR

  • obol sell http resume: sell http offers don't have an on-disk descriptor today (only sell inference persists via inference.Store). Adding a parallel manifest store for sell http plus a third resume branch is its own PR. Worth noting because the user explicitly asked for "all paid services" — this PR covers inference only.
  • Host gateway daemonization: the foreground gateway still requires the operator to re-run obol sell inference <name>. A future PR could turn the gateway into a supervised process (systemd unit, k8s Deployment, or obol sell up background mode), at which point stack-up could bring the entire seller path back unattended.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently

Changes:

decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.

that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.

balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the

Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoClusterDescriptor on disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) → skip cleanly without erroring stack-up.
TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelNameLegacy descriptor with empty ModelName surfaces the recovery command verbatim.
TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptorDefensive: nil and empty-name descriptors error rather than panic.
TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffersSource-level guard: cmd/obol/main.go's stack up Action must call resumeSellOffers, AND it must do so AFTER stack.Up (running it before sees no kubeconfig and skips every offer silently).

Follow-ups not in this PR

  • obol sell http resume: sell http offers don't have an on-disk descriptor today (only sell inference persists via inference.Store). Adding a parallel manifest store for sell http plus a third resume branch is its own PR. Worth noting because the user explicitly asked for "all paid services" — this PR covers inference only.
  • Host gateway daemonization: the foreground gateway still requires the operator to re-run obol sell inference <name>. A future PR could turn the gateway into a supervised process (systemd unit, k8s Deployment, or obol sell up background mode), at which point stack-up could bring the entire seller path back unattended.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own

Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelNameLegacy descriptor with empty ModelName surfaces the recovery command verbatim.
TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptorDefensive: nil and empty-name descriptors error rather than panic.
TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffersSource-level guard: cmd/obol/main.go's stack up Action must call resumeSellOffers, AND it must do so AFTER stack.Up (running it before sees no kubeconfig and skips every offer silently).

Follow-ups not in this PR

  • obol sell http resume: sell http offers don't have an on-disk descriptor today (only sell inference persists via inference.Store). Adding a parallel manifest store for sell http plus a third resume branch is its own PR. Worth noting because the user explicitly asked for "all paid services" — this PR covers inference only.
  • Host gateway daemonization: the foreground gateway still requires the operator to re-run obol sell inference <name>. A future PR could turn the gateway into a supervised process (systemd unit, k8s Deployment, or obol sell up background mode), at which point stack-up could bring the entire seller path back unattended.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.

- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

Summary

Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap that bit us on spark2: after obol stack down destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer CRs are wiped from etcd while the on-disk descriptors at ~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive. Nothing replayed them, so operators had to re-run obol sell inference <name> for every offer after every stack up.

This wires a resume step into obol stack up. After stack.Up returns, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the Service + Endpoints + ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment, and kubectl applys them.

The foreground host gateway is NOT auto-started — that's an interactive operator action and obol stack up shouldn't launch long-running processes. But the cluster side is fully reattached, so the operator's eventual obol sell inference <name> rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile path instead of building everything from scratch.

Why this PR depends on #485

inference.Deployment gains three new fields (ModelName, ServiceNamespace, Registration) that have to be populated at offer-creation time, and the populating happens in the inference Action that #485 introduces (buildSellRegistrationConfig + the --register-* flag handling). Rebasing this onto main once #485 lands is a no-op; before that it compiles only on top of #485.

TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelNameLegacy descriptor with empty ModelName surfaces the recovery command verbatim.
TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptorDefensive: nil and empty-name descriptors error rather than panic.
TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffersSource-level guard: cmd/obol/main.go's stack up Action must call resumeSellOffers, AND it must do so AFTER stack.Up (running it before sees no kubeconfig and skips every offer silently).

Follow-ups not in this PR

  • obol sell http resume: sell http offers don't have an on-disk descriptor today (only sell inference persists via inference.Store). Adding a parallel manifest store for sell http plus a third resume branch is its own PR. Worth noting because the user explicitly asked for "all paid services" — this PR covers inference only.
  • Host gateway daemonization: the foreground gateway still requires the operator to re-run obol sell inference <name>. A future PR could turn the gateway into a supervised process (systemd unit, k8s Deployment, or obol sell up background mode), at which point stack-up could bring the entire seller path back unattended.

`obol sell inference` was producing ServiceOffers with three latent
defects that together stopped /.well-known/agent-registration.json
from ever being routed for inference-typed sells:
1. The inference subcommand never exposed `--register-*` flags
(compare with `obol sell http` which does), even though the help
text on `--register` says "registration is enabled by default".
2. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` never wrote `spec.registration`
onto the offer at all, so the controller's
`reconcileRegistrationStatus` saw `Enabled=false` (zero value) and
emitted `Registered=True Disabled` with no RegistrationRequest CR
and no /.well-known HTTPRoute.
3. `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` hardcoded
`spec.model.name = "ollama"` regardless of the actual `--model`
value, so anything downstream that keyed off the model id (the
controller's description default included) was looking at the
wrong string.
Surfaced today on spark2 while trying to fetch
`https://inference.v1337.org/.well-known/agent-registration.json` —
got the Traefik fall-through 404. Manual `kubectl patch` enabled
registration, exposed a fourth defect:
4. `buildActiveRegistrationDocument` in the serviceoffer-controller
unconditionally overwrote `Spec.Registration.Description` for
inference offers with `"<model.name> inference via x402
micropayments"`, even when the operator had supplied an explicit
description at sell time.
This PR fixes all four:
- Add `--no-register`, `--register-name`, `--register-description`,
`--register-image`, `--register-skills`, `--register-domains`,
`--register-metadata` to `obol sell inference`.
- Rename `sellHTTPRegistrationInput` / `buildSellHTTPRegistrationConfig`
to the unqualified `sellRegistrationInput` /
`buildSellRegistrationConfig` since they now serve both inference
and http call sites.
- Extend `buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec` to accept the resolved
model name and the registration block, write
`spec.model.name = <real model id>`, and merge the registration
block into `spec.registration` when non-empty.
- In the controller's `buildActiveRegistrationDocument`, only fall
back to the model-aware description string when the operator left
`Spec.Registration.Description` empty.
Tests that would have caught the regression earlier:
- `TestSellInference_Flags` now requires the six registration flags;
their absence on `main` was the bug.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_RegistrationEnabledByDefault`
pins that defaults produce `spec.registration.enabled = true` and
the offer name as `spec.registration.name`.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_NoRegisterOmitsRegistration`
pins the `--no-register` opt-out.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_OperatorOverridesWin` pins
that operator-supplied name/description/image/skills/domains all
survive into the spec verbatim.
- `TestBuildInferenceServiceOfferSpec_ModelNameNotHardcoded` pins
that `spec.model.name` reflects `--model`, not the historical
"ollama" literal.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_KeepsOperatorDescription`
pins the controller-side fix: an operator description survives
the buildActiveRegistrationDocument pass.
- `TestBuildActiveRegistrationDocument_FallsBackToModelDescriptionForInference`
pins the other branch — inference offers with no operator
description still get the model-aware default, not the generic
one.
Drive-by: `TestSellInference_Flags` was failing on `main` after #470
removed the `--price` default but didn't update the corresponding
assertion. Updated to assert `--price` default = "" with a comment
explaining the contract.
The first revision of #485 stopped at "produce a ServiceOffer with a
populated spec.registration block". That made
/.well-known/agent-registration.json get routed, but left the offer in
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration until someone manually
ran `obol sell register`. The serviceoffer-controller's storefront
filter (buildServiceCatalogJSON in render.go) requires Ready=True,
which transitively requires Registered=True, so the offer was silently
excluded from /api/services.json — the very feed the operator's own
storefront UI consumes.
obol sell http already auto-registers on the same code path. Mirror
that here so the inference path reaches the same end state without a
follow-up obol sell register step.
Changes:
- Extract shouldAutoRegisterSell(spec, tunnelURL) as the shared
decision predicate. The same gate now drives both the http and
inference auto-register call sites; defensively returns false when
the registration block is missing, disabled, malformed, or the
tunnel URL is empty.
- sellInferenceCommand Action: after kubectlApply + EnsureTunnelForSell
succeed, if shouldAutoRegisterSell says yes, call
autoRegisterServiceOffer with the resolved name/description/wallet
pulled from the spec. Surface failures as warnings + a re-run hint
rather than aborting the gateway start, because the underlying call
needs gas on the target chain and we do not want a one-off RPC
hiccup to block local dev.
Test coverage that would have caught the regression:
- TestShouldAutoRegisterSell - table-driven over six scenarios
including the defensive cases (registration not a map,
registration.enabled not a bool). Both call sites use the helper.
- TestSellInferenceAction_InvokesAutoRegister - source-level guard
that scans the sellInferenceCommand body for shouldAutoRegisterSell
and autoRegisterServiceOffer. The bug we just fixed was "Action
calls neither"; an innocent refactor could remove the calls without
any unit-level signal otherwise.
Operational note: the agent's remote-signer wallet needs a small ETH
balance on the target chain (~0.20-0.50 USD typical) for the on-chain
register tx. If the wallet is unfunded the warning fires and the
offer stays in AwaitingExternalRegistration; the operator can fund
the wallet and re-run obol sell register to finish.
…straint)
The autoRegisterServiceOffer pre-flight check rejected any registration
whose signer didn't match the offer's payTo wallet:
registration signer 0xA... does not match the payment wallet 0xB...
Use a matching signer, omit --wallet so the remote-signer wallet is
used, or pass --no-register
The error wording read like an ERC-8004 limitation but isn't. ERC-8004
treats the agent OWNER (msg.sender at register time) and the agent
WALLET (settable post-mint via setAgentWallet) as independent
addresses. x402 settlement honors the offer's spec.payment.payTo
directly — buyers pay that address regardless of what the registry's
getAgentWallet returns. The "hot signer, cold/multisig payee" split is
the canonical pattern.
The historic guard existed because the obol CLI never exposed
setAgentWallet, so a mismatched registration left operators with no
in-CLI recovery path. This change instead surfaces the split as an
informational note + adds `obol sell update <name> --pay-to <new>` as
the recovery surface (already in tree; just needed test coverage and
the connection wired into the diagnostic).
Changes:
- signerPayeeDelegationNote(signer, payTo) returns a human-readable
note when the two diverge (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant,
empty on either side) and "" otherwise. Used by
autoRegisterServiceOffer instead of the previous early-return.
- buildSellUpdatePatch(payTo, chain, price) extracted from the inline
sellUpdateCommand Action so the patch shape — the thing that
actually hits the cluster — is testable without a live offer.
Action calls the helper instead of inlining the same logic.
Tests:
- TestSignerPayeeDelegationNote — 6-case table: match,
case-insensitive, whitespace, empty payTo, empty signer (defensive),
true mismatch (assertions name the addresses + advise sell update).
- TestAutoRegister_AllowsSignerPayeeMismatch — source-level guard
asserting the banned error wording is gone from
autoRegisterServiceOffer and the soft-notice path is wired. Anyone
re-introducing the check has to delete this test too, which forces
them to read the rationale.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PayToOnly — `obol sell update <name>
--pay-to 0xBooB` builds a patch that touches only
spec.payment.payTo, not network or price.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_PriceSwitchNullsOldKeys — table over
perRequest/perMTok/perHour: the unused keys are explicitly null so
a switch (e.g. perRequest → perMTok) doesn't leave the previous key
fighting through merge semantics.
- TestBuildSellUpdatePatch_NoFieldsErrors — error fires when no
fields are set, and the error names the flags the operator should
pass.
- TestSellUpdate_PayToFlagSurface — `obol sell update` exposes
--pay-to (with --wallet/--recipient/-w aliases via payToFlag), and
--namespace is Required.
Closes the "cluster comes back but the seller offers don't" gap.
After `obol stack down` destroys the k3d cluster, all ServiceOffer
custom resources are wiped from etcd. The descriptors on disk at
~/.workspace/config/inference/<name>/ survive, but nothing replays
them when the cluster comes back, so operators had to manually re-run
`obol sell inference <name>` for every offer after every stack up.
This wires a resume step into `obol stack up`: after stack.Up returns
successfully, the action iterates inference.Store, rebuilds the
Service+Endpoints+ServiceOffer for each persisted deployment from the
on-disk descriptor, and kubectl-applies them. The foreground host
gateway is NOT auto-started — it is an interactive operator action and
stack-up shouldn't launch long-running processes — but the cluster
side is fully reattached so the operator's eventual `obol sell
inference <name>` rerun hits a "service already healthy" reconcile
instead of "build from scratch."
Storage model:
- inference.Deployment gains ModelName, ServiceNamespace, and
Registration fields, persisted with `omitempty` so legacy descriptors
written by older binaries still load (the new fields come back as
zero values; the resume path either defaults sensibly or refuses
with an actionable message).
- The inference Action now resolves the registration block once and
passes the same map to both store.Create() and the in-process
ServiceOffer apply — guaranteeing on-disk state matches what the
cluster sees.
Resume path:
- resumeSellOffers(ctx, cfg, u): lists inference.Store, skips when no
kubeconfig (no cluster yet), warns + continues per-offer on errors.
- resumeOneInferenceOffer: createHostService + buildInferenceServiceOfferSpec
+ kubectlApply, no foreground process. Returns an actionable error
on missing ModelName so legacy descriptors surface a clear
"recreate the offer" prompt rather than producing a broken
ServiceOffer.
- Wired from cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action after stack.Up. A
resume failure is logged as a warning, not propagated — stack-up
must succeed even if one descriptor is malformed.
Tests:
- TestStoreCreate_PersistsResumeFields: pins ModelName,
ServiceNamespace, and Registration round-trip through JSON. Without
this round-trip, the resume path silently loses operator
customizations.
- TestStoreCreate_LegacyDescriptorWithoutResumeFields: pins
backwards-compatibility — a JSON written by an older binary still
loads, with the new fields as zero values.
- TestResumeSellOffers_EmptyStoreNoOp: empty store, resume returns nil.
- TestResumeSellOffers_DescriptorPresentButNoCluster: descriptor on
disk, kubeconfig absent (post-purge, pre-up state) — resume must
skip cleanly.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName: legacy descriptor
with empty ModelName surfaces an actionable error naming the
missing field and the recovery command.
- TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_NilDescriptor: defensive nil/empty
descriptor guard so one bad entry can't crash the loop.
- TestStackUpAction_CallsResumeSellOffers: source-level guard that
cmd/obol/main.go's `stack up` Action calls resumeSellOffers AFTER
stack.Up. Pinning the order — running resume before stack.Up would
see no kubeconfig and skip every offer silently.
Operational note: `obol sell http` offers don't yet have an on-disk
descriptor (only `obol sell inference` persists), so they aren't
covered by this resume pass. Filed as a follow-up — adding a parallel
manifest store for `sell http` plus a third resume branch is its own
PR.
…ont filter
The first cut of stack-up resume (prior commit) reattached cluster-side
artifacts but stopped short of two things that together left the
operator's storefront empty after every stack-up cycle:
1. The foreground x402 gateway never restarted, so UpstreamHealthy=False.
2. Even after a manual gateway restart, the controller's storefront
filter required Ready=True — which itself requires Registered=True
— and an unfunded agent wallet (or a deliberate "register later"
choice) leaves Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration. The
operationally-usable offer was invisible to the operator's own UI.
Both addressed here so `obol stack up` is the only command needed.
1. Auto-start the gateway as a detached host subprocess:
- startDetachedInferenceGateway reconstructs the original
`obol sell inference <name> --model … --register-* …` invocation
from the persisted inference.Deployment and spawns it with
Setsid + Process.Release so it survives the parent's exit.
- PID + log path live under <StateDir>/sell-inference/<name>/.
readGatewayPID + processAlive let subsequent stack-ups detect a
still-running gateway and skip the relaunch.
- Surfaced via a u.Successf with the PID + log path so operators can
`tail -f` or `kill $(cat .pid)` without parsing helpers.
- sell_proc_unix.go isolates the platform-specific SysProcAttr
behind the unix build tag, keeping the rest of the code portable.
The long-term shape is to ship the inference gateway as a real
helm-managed cluster Pod (it would survive stack-down/up like every
other infra piece, and the controller could observe it as a
first-class workload). Comment in startDetachedInferenceGateway
spells that out so the next person looking at this knows the host
subprocess + PID-file plumbing is the deliberate near-term step,
not the final form.
2. Relax the storefront filter:
- offerOperationallyReady = ModelReady + UpstreamHealthy +
PaymentGateReady + RoutePublished. Registered is intentionally
NOT in the AND — on-chain ERC-8004 registration is publication
metadata, not operational readiness. Aggregate Ready=True is
also accepted as a shortcut so existing test fixtures and any
external callers that only emit the aggregate signal still work.
- offerAwaitingRegistration flags
Registered=False AwaitingExternalRegistration specifically, and
buildServiceCatalogJSON propagates it as
ServiceCatalogEntry.RegistrationPending=true so storefront UIs
can badge "registration pending" alongside the usable offer.
Tests:
- TestBuildResumeGatewayArgs (3 cases): full descriptor incl.
registration map, --no-register path, legacy descriptor with no
Registration map. Pins positional-name-before-flags ordering so a
CLI surface tweak can't silently desync the resume relaunch.
- TestReadGatewayPID (8 cases): clean integer, trailing newline,
surrounding whitespace, zero rejected, negative rejected,
non-numeric rejected, empty rejected, missing-file rejected.
Format is one decimal int in ASCII so external tooling
(`kill $(cat .pid)`) works without parsing.
- TestProcessAlive_SelfAndBogus: self is alive, absurd PID is not.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_IncludesAwaitingExternalRegistration:
the headline behavioral fix — an offer with all four ops conditions
True + Registered=False(AwaitingExternalRegistration) is
operationally ready.
- TestOfferOperationallyReady_RejectsRealNotReady: an offer with
UpstreamHealthy=False is still excluded — the relax is narrow to
the registration gate only.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_IncludesPendingRegistrationOffers:
end-to-end through /api/services.json — AwaitingExternalRegistration
offers appear with RegistrationPending=true.
- TestBuildServiceCatalogJSON_RegistrationPendingFalseForFullyReady:
the negative — fully Ready=True offers must NOT carry
RegistrationPending or the storefront badge would stick around on
healthy offers.
Operational footnote: the auto-spawned gateway picks up the same
inference.Deployment that originally created the offer. If the
descriptor predates this PR and has no ModelName, the resume per-offer
warning fires (already pinned by TestResumeOneInferenceOffer_RequiresModelName
in the prior commit) — recreate the offer once with the new code so
the descriptor has the resume-side fields, after which every
subsequent stack down/up cycle reattaches the offer with zero extra
commands.
Surfaced during the live spark2 walkthrough of the prior commit:
1. Gateway PID printed as -1.
cmd.Process.Release() on Unix sets p.Pid to -1 as part of its handle
teardown, so reading cmd.Process.Pid AFTER Release prints a bogus -1
to the operator and pins -1 in the PID file. Snapshot the PID before
the Release call.
2. Stale "Host gateways are not auto-started" footer.
Carried over from the pre-auto-spawn version of the resume function.
With the gateway now auto-spawned, the message is misleading.
Replaced with a pointer to the gateway log path so operators can
`tail -f` immediately.
3. /skill.md catalog used the strict Ready=True filter while
/api/services.json used the new operationally-ready filter.
The two surfaces should stay consistent — an offer that's usable for
x402 payments shows up in BOTH the storefront feed and the operator-
facing skill catalog. Switched buildSkillCatalogMarkdown to the same
offerOperationallyReady predicate.
No new tests; the existing TestOfferOperationallyReady_* / catalog
tests cover the filter relax for both call sites since they share the
predicate. The PID-reading order is a one-line semantic fix; the
footer wording isn't worth a test.

Superseded by #487 — all three commits (2d36745, 6efdf3f, 9947bb0) folded into the umbrella branch verbatim, plus the sell-http resume that grew out of the follow-up list. Reviewing #487 reviews these changes too.
