Bumps codesys-mcp-sp21-plus to 0.7.0 (main was at 0.6.4 from
intermediate releases) and phobiCS-tui's --version output to v0.2.0.
Headline changes since v0.6.4:
TUI:
- browser keybinds: / (filter), o (open in editor), d (cross-
device diff), r (rescan), ? (help overlay)
- approve mode: v toggles unified <-> side-by-side diff
- viewer: ST syntax highlighting (keywords/types/comments/strings)
- statusbar: stale-mirror indicator + small-terminal resize warn
MCP server:
- --approve-edits now gates ALL 9 modifying tools, not just
set_pou_code: create_pou, create_property, create_method,
create_dut, create_gvl, create_folder, delete_object,
rename_object, add_library
No tag created here; npm publish has to be run from your terminal
because the npm 2FA passkey can't be driven through the bash tool.
WHY: an unlicensed CODESYS Control runtime drops out of demo mode every 2
hours. systemctl is-active reports "active" even after the binary has
died, so a TCP probe on the runtime port (default 11740) is the only
honest liveness signal. The new tool gives MCP a one-call path to bring
the runtime back without dropping into a terminal.
Implementation choices:
- ssh2 (npm) instead of spawning ssh/sshpass: sshpass is not on the
default Windows path, and the target Pi's sshd 10.x rejects pubkey
signatures from this client environment in practice. ssh2 handles
password auth + remote stdin + exit-code capture cross-platform.
- sudo -S with the password fed on remote stdin -- avoids a NOPASSWD
sudoers entry on the PLC.
- After issuing the restart, polls 'ss -tln | grep :<port>' once per
second until the listen port is up or livenessWaitSeconds expires.
This is what catches a half-dead runtime that systemctl reports as
fine.
Defaults match the only Pi we currently target (codesys-pi.local /
karstein / codesys123 / codesyscontrol / port 11740) but every field
is overridable.
Smoke-tested against codesys-pi.local: restart exit 0, port back up
after ~3s.
v0.3.0 returning-watcher architecture — background thread polls for commands
and marshals execution onto the CODESYS UI thread, keeping the IDE fully
responsive between operations. File-based IPC with atomic writes, async mutex
command serialization, headless fallback, and 35 passing tests.
