📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds native Windows Service Control Manager support for Shawl services, credential redaction for command output, updated Windows account documentation, a dependency upgrade, and platform-specific Podman metric tests.

Changes

Command credential redaction

Layer / File(s) Summary
Credential redaction and logging coverage
internal/app/components/redact.go, internal/app/components/executor.go, internal/app/components/redact_test.go
Command and argument logging now masks inline credentials and values after recognized secret flags. Tests cover case variations, quoted values, unchanged inputs, similar non-secret names, and missing flag values.

Native Windows Shawl services

Layer / File(s) Summary
SCM contracts and Shawl command construction
go.mod, internal/processmanager/errors.go, internal/processmanager/scm_windows.go, internal/processmanager/shawl_service.go, internal/processmanager/shawl_service_test.go
The process manager adds native SCM access, service errors, account comparison, Shawl command construction, fingerprints, state mapping, error hints, log parsing, and related tests.
Service planning and reconciliation
internal/processmanager/shawl_windows.go, config/gameap-daemon.yaml, internal/app/config/config.go, internal/processmanager/README.md
Service plans normalize accounts, decode credentials, derive binary paths, grant directory access, compare SCM configuration, synchronize markers, and recreate drifted services. Documentation uses the canonical NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService name.
Service lifecycle and diagnostics
internal/processmanager/shawl_windows.go
Start, stop, status, uninstall, waiting, startup failure handling, log output, and SCM diagnostics now use native service APIs and states.

Podman metric coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Platform-specific Podman metric tests
internal/processmanager/podman_metrics_test.go, internal/processmanager/docker_metrics_test.go
Podman tests cover zero-valued PID, CPU, network, block I/O, and memory metrics. The corresponding tests were removed from the Docker metric test file.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d3c7e

The Windows service changes can expose a service password in task output when using valid space-separated sc.exe syntax, creating a concrete credential-leak risk; log-tail handling may also show truncated diagnostics. Merge should wait for the redaction issue to be fixed.

646-680: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Bound the log tail read like GetOutput does.

writeLogTail scans the whole log file to keep the last 40 messages. The daily shawl log can be large, so this path reads far more than it needs. The ring buffer also reallocates: lines = lines[1:] reduces the slice capacity, so the following append allocates a new array on almost every line.

Reuse the same tail window as GetOutput (Seek(-shawlOutputSizeLimit, io.SeekEnd)), and index into a fixed slice instead of reslicing.

Inline comments:
In `@internal/app/components/redact.go`:
- Around line 12-20: Add the --api-key variant to secretFlags so separated
arguments are redacted by Executor.ExecWithWriterArgs, and extend
secretAssignmentPattern to match --api-key=value alongside existing API-key
assignment forms. Add tests covering both --api-key=value and --api-key value
redaction.

Apply the same fix in `@internal/app/components/redact.go` around lines 24 - 25:
Covers password values supplied as separate arguments and quoted assignments.

In `@internal/processmanager/podman_metrics_test.go`:
- Around line 21-34: Update
TestPodmanStatsToMetrics_EmitsZeroValueCountersAndCPU to assert each collected
metric’s value is zero, using type-appropriate assertions for the CPU gauge and
network/block I/O counters while retaining the existing presence checks.

In `@internal/processmanager/shawl_service.go`:
- Around line 64-67: Update the executable-extension check in the Shawl command
setup to route both .bat and .cmd scripts through cmd.exe with the existing /c
argument construction, while preserving direct execution for other extensions.
Extend the argument-construction tests to cover a .cmd script.

In `@internal/processmanager/shawl_windows.go`:
- Around line 230-240: Update the scanner setup in the log-reading flow around
parseShawlLogLine to support lines longer than bufio.Scanner’s default limit by
configuring an explicit larger buffer; preserve the existing scan, output, and
scanner.Err handling behavior.
