fix(inference): adopt an interrupted managed vLLM container holding the serving port#11530HOYALIM wants to merge 7 commits into
Conversation
…he serving port Host-local lifecycle recovery admits only a completed authenticated install: it requires the runtime receipt written after startup and the auth label a profile adds only for managed bearer auth. An install interrupted before either exists leaves its own managed container running on the serving port, so the guard reported that port as held by another process and neither onboard --resume nor a fresh install could make progress. Classify the port holder by its ownership labels when recovery cannot claim it, and reuse the existing replacement path for a running managed container. A foreign or unlabeled holder, an ambiguous inspection, a distributed head or worker, and a container that is not running all remain conflicts.

adoptableServingPortHolder() does not verify that the managed container actually owns the failed VLLM_PORT; it only checks the ownership label and running state. If an existing managed container is published on a custom port while an unrelated process owns the current port, this path adopts/removes the wrong container and then still cannot bind. Could we verify the published 8000/tcp host port matches the probed port before adopting, with a regression for a managed container on another host port?
Review found that ownership alone did not prove the managed container was the process holding the serving port: a managed container published on another host port would have been adopted and removed while an unrelated process kept the port, freeing nothing and destroying an unrelated runtime. Compare the container's published binding for the fixed container port with the port that failed, and keep the conflict outcome when they differ or the binding cannot be read.

Rechecked 01be96c4. The managed container is now adopted only when Docker reports its container-port 8000 binding on the same failed VLLM_PORT, and the regression covers a managed container published on a different host port. My previous blocker is resolved.

Thanks — that was right. Ownership and running state did not prove the container was the process holding the failed port, so a managed container published on another host port would have been adopted and removed while an unrelated process kept the port. Adoption now also requires the container's published binding for the fixed container port to equal the port that failed; a mismatch, or a binding that cannot be read, keeps the conflict outcome. Added a regression for a managed container on another host port — removing only that comparison fails it. Pushed as |

Blocking concern on current 01be96c4: the serving-port probe is host-local (127.0.0.1), but adoptableServingPortHolder() queries Docker with buildVllmDockerEnv(). With a remote DOCKER_HOST or DOCKER_CONTEXT, a local process can hold port 8000 while a managed remote container also publishes 8000; this path can then remove the remote container without freeing the local port. Please keep adoption and removal on the same local Docker boundary as the port probe, and add a remote-Docker regression.

…he serving port (#11587) ## Outcome Managed vLLM onboarding now reclaims an interrupted NemoClaw container only when the container is on the same local Docker boundary and one published binding covers the probed loopback endpoint on the requested port. This same-repository continuation adopts the exact reviewed candidate from #11530 so required SDK CI and trusted E2E can run. ## Reason The source contribution fixes the recovery gap in #11426, but fork heads cannot consume the base-controlled OpenShell SDK package and are rejected by manual PR E2E. The copy-pr-bot branch preserves the exact signed candidate while providing the repository-owned source identity those gates require. ### Related issues Fixes #11426 Adopts #11530. Do not merge both pull requests. ## Changes - Recognize an interrupted, running NemoClaw-managed vLLM container as the owner of a failed serving port only through the sanitized local Docker environment. - Require a published container-port 8000 binding on 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 at the failed serving port before replacement. - Reuse that same Docker environment for preflight inspection, removal, and relaunch, while failing closed for foreign ownership, mismatched ports or addresses, unreadable inspection, distributed profiles, stopped containers, and container-ID drift. - Add regressions for ambient remote Docker routing, another host port, and bindings away from the probed loopback address. ## Verification - Focused vLLM serving-port suite — 18 tests passed. - npm run test:changed — 17 files and 391 tests passed. - NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 npm run typecheck:cli — passed. - NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 npm run validate:pr — passed against canonical main validation surfaces. - Guarded pre-push validation on the source contribution — passed. - GitHub commit verification on #11530 — all six commits Verified. - The diff contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials. ## Review notes Sensitive paths: src/lib/inference/vllm.ts and src/lib/inference/vllm-serving-port.test.ts. The complete two-file candidate at bf1b1d8 was reviewed through #11530, including correctness, Docker locality, destructive-removal guards, binding parsing, sibling recovery paths, regression coverage, and credential boundaries. CodeRabbit findings on remote Docker routing and binding addresses were reproduced and repaired. The local PR Advisor was attempted on each repaired candidate but could not start its first specialist sandbox because the local OpenShell relay refused the connection; cleanup succeeded and no artifacts were produced. Alternative review completed; this is not an Advisor clearance. --- Signed-off-by: Julie Yaunches <jyaunches@nvidia.com> <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **Bug Fixes** - Improved vLLM serving recovery after interrupted installations or restarts. - Existing managed containers can now be safely reused when they are running locally and serving the expected port. - Added safeguards to reject containers with incorrect ownership, port mappings, or network addresses. - Container replacement now preserves the required runtime configuration for a reliable relaunch. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Signed-off-by: Ho Lim <subhoya@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Julie Yaunches <jyaunches@nvidia.com> Co-authored-by: Ho Lim <subhoya@gmail.com>

Re-reviewed current 55b330e. Both issues I raised are addressed: adoption/removal stays on the host-local Docker environment, and adoption now requires a loopback or all-address binding on the failed serving port, with regressions for remote Docker and address mismatches. All runnable CI is green; the lone OpenShell SDK failure explicitly requires a same-repository PR. No remaining blocker from me.
Outcome
An interrupted managed vLLM install no longer strands the host. When the container that install left running still holds the serving port,
onboard --resumeand a fresh install now recognise it as their own and replace it through the existing managed-container path, instead of reporting the port as held by another process.Reason
The serving-port guard admits a held port only when host-local lifecycle recovery can claim the holder. That recovery proves a completed authenticated install: it requires the runtime receipt, which is persisted only after startup finishes, and the auth label, which a profile adds only for managed bearer auth.
An install interrupted before either exists therefore leaves a container that recovery can never claim, even though NemoClaw started it seconds earlier. The guard fell through to the conflict message, and the only documented recovery paths both failed on the state the tool itself created.

Changes
src/lib/inference/vllm.ts— when recovery cannot claim the port holder, classify it with the ownership inspection already used by the replacement guard, require its published binding for the fixed container port to match the port that failed, and continue through the ordinary replacement path. Every other state keeps the existing conflict outcome.src/lib/inference/vllm-serving-port.test.ts— cover the adopted case and the unlabeled holder that must still be refused.Verification

The adopting test fails on the unmodified source withexpected { ok: false } to deeply equal { ok: true }.npx vitest run src/lib/inference/— 120 files, 2647 passed, 1 skipped, 0 failed.npm run validate:pr— passed on a clean tree: 17 hooks passed, 17 skipped as not applicable, 0 failed, includinggitleaks (secret scan),Codebase growth guardrails,Source-shape test budget, andTypeScript (CLI).NEMOCLAW_SERVING_PRESETfailure on this journey and does not overlap this branch.Review notes
The guard stays fail-closed. Adoption requires the inspection to report a managed container that is running. A foreign or unlabeled holder, an ambiguous inspection, a distributed head or worker, and a container that is not running all keep the previous refusal, and the new test for the unlabeled holder pins that. The replacement guard's own re-inspection immediately before launch is unchanged, so the existing protection against a name transfer between classification and removal still applies.
Review follow-up. The first revision adopted on ownership and running state alone. A managed container published on another host port is not the process holding this port, so adopting it would have removed an unrelated runtime and still failed to bind. Adoption now also requires the published binding for the fixed container port to equal the port that failed, and a new test covers a managed container on another host port.
Why not relax recovery instead.
recoverHostLocalManagedVllmEndpointreturns the managed API key, so admitting an unauthenticated container there would weaken a credential boundary. Ownership classification carries no credential claim and is the check the replacement path already trusts for this decision.Scope. This repairs the guard that refuses the port. It does not change when the runtime receipt is written, and it does not add cleanup for a container left behind by any other path.
Fork CI.
openshell-sdk-packageand the checks that depend on it cannot run for a fork pull request, so the local results above are the evidence for this change.Signed-off-by: Ho Lim subhoya@gmail.com
