What

The first successful `POST /api/machines` for a user records that they registered a daemon. Two write-once records, both written only after registration succeeds:

step store / field `at`
`daemon-registered` `byo_telemetry` row, `_id` = `daemon-registered:` (one row per person; a second machine hits the unique index and writes nothing) the row's `at`
`byoDaemonRegisteredAt` `User.onboarding.byoDaemonRegisteredAt`, write-once in the filter, never for bots the mark's own timestamp

A failed register (limit, bad name, revoked token, removed during registration) writes neither.

Decision: server-side only

The row's step 1 says to add the step to `BYO_STEPS` in `routes/stats.ts`. I did not: `BYO_STEPS` is the browser allow-list, and the existing test `rejects seat-registered from the browser` holds the rule that only the backend writes these rows. The new step goes in the server-side `ServerByoStep` union beside `seat-registered`.

Tests

  • `routes/machines.test.js`: row and mark on a register; same key for a second machine; nothing on a failed register.
  • `services/onboardingMarks.test.js`: write-once filter, never for bots, one write per person per process, retry after a failed write, no person means no write.
  • Backend tsc clean. Lint: no new findings in the changed lines (the remaining ones were on origin/main).

After deploy

The 48h users-per-step count by `at` will be posted on TASK-661 once a deploy carries this change. It cannot be measured before then.

The first successful POST /api/machines for a user writes one byo_telemetry
row, daemon-registered, keyed by the user so a second machine writes nothing,
and sets the write-once onboarding mark byoDaemonRegisteredAt. A failed
register writes neither.

Walkthrough

The machine registration route now marks the owner’s first successful BYO daemon registration and records a keyed telemetry event. The onboarding schema stores the timestamp, and tests cover write-once behavior, deduplication, retries, and registration outcomes.

Changes: BYO daemon registration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Persist the first registration mark
backend/models/User.ts, backend/services/onboardingMarks.ts, backend/__tests__/unit/services/onboardingMarks.test.js
The onboarding schema and service add a first-registration timestamp for non-bot users. The service skips missing or already-marked IDs, deduplicates writes in-process, and clears the mark after write failures. Tests cover these behaviors.
Define the daemon-registration event key
backend/services/byoTelemetry.ts
The server telemetry step type adds daemon-registered. daemonRegisteredKey builds a key from the stringified user ID.
Record successful machine registrations
backend/routes/machines.ts, backend/__tests__/unit/routes/machines.test.js
After machine registration succeeds, the route marks the owner and records a keyed event. Tests verify successful calls, consistent keys across registrations, and no calls after registration failure.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

A slow telemetry write can delay the daemon token and lead to a duplicate machine if registration is retried. Send the token without waiting for telemetry, and test that the onboarding timestamp persists before merging.

Explanation

The title names the main change: the first daemon registration per person is recorded, with the ticket reference. It matches the changeset, which adds a daemon-registered telemetry row and a write-once onboarding mark that fire after a successful machine registration. The title uses the conventional feat(scope) form and is one sentence.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description states the purpose and the two write-once records. It explains that both records are written only after a successful registration, and that failed registrations write neither. It also covers the decision to keep the new step out of the browser BYO_STEPS allow-list, lists the tests added, and notes the post-deploy measurement plan. It matches the changed files in machines.ts, byoTelemetry.ts, onboardingMarks.ts, User.ts, and the two test files.

Minor follow-up Send the daemon token before awaiting telemetry.

62-62: Minor · Stability & Availability · Quick win

Send the daemon token before awaiting telemetry.

backend/routes/machines.ts:62 awaits recordByoEvent before the 201 response that carries daemonToken. A slow byo_telemetry insert therefore delays the only response that returns the token. The repository sets no timeout for that insert. A client that times out and retries can create a second machine, because registerMachine has no idempotency check.

Send the response first, then record the telemetry. Telemetry stays best-effort, as byoTelemetry.ts already documents, and the per-user dedupe key still keeps the row write-once.

Suggested fix
     markByoDaemonRegistered(ownerUserId);
-    await recordByoEvent(ownerUserId, 'daemon-registered', {}, daemonRegisteredKey(ownerUserId));
     // The raw daemon credential is intentionally only ever returned here.
-    return res.status(201).json({ machine, daemonToken: token });
+    res.status(201).json({ machine, daemonToken: token });
+    await recordByoEvent(ownerUserId, 'daemon-registered', {}, daemonRegisteredKey(ownerUserId));

Test byoDaemonRegisteredAt persistence through the real User model.

The current test mocks User.updateOne, so it cannot detect a schema change that silently drops the timestamp. Add a focused MongoMemoryServer round trip for a human user. Read the timestamp back through User, then confirm that a second mark does not replace it.

HEAD: a8b8b3a — GATE: PASS

Self-review of the full diff against origin/main (6 files):

  • Mark and row are written only after registerMachine succeeds; a failed register writes neither (route test).
  • Row keyed daemon-registered:, so a second machine hits the unique _id and writes nothing; the route test asserts the same key on two registrations.
  • byoDaemonRegisteredAt is write-once in the filter and never set for bots; service tests cover the filter, one write per person per process, retry after failure, and no-person.
  • ServerByoStep extended; the browser allow-list (BYO_STEPS) is unchanged, so the existing rejects-seat-registered-from-browser rule still holds.
  • Tests: routes/machines, byoTelemetry, onboardingMarks 58/58 after the merge of origin/main; backend tsc clean; CI all green, CodeRabbit threads answered, merge state CLEAN.
  • No new lint findings in the changed lines (remaining findings are on origin/main).
