Bug Fix 0.9.2 February 25, 2026

Control Plane Authority & Reconciliation Fixes

  • Fixed VMs getting stuck in "creating" status after partial creation
  • Server now enforces authority over agent-reported status — user actions (start/stop/restart) can no longer be silently reverted
  • VM image downloads now have timeouts, resume support, and verification
  • Game server install no longer auto-completes prematurely
  • VM image URL is now sent for any VM that hasn't reached "running" state
  • Added stale transition watchdog — VMs and game servers stuck in transitional states for 5+ minutes are automatically recovered
  • Hardened image downloads with --connect-timeout, --max-time, resume (-C -), and retry flags
New Feature 0.9.1 February 21, 2026

  • Cost analytics — track per-node and per-service costs across providers
  • Placement engine — automatic node scoring and recommendations
