* fix-2360: prevent asyncio CPU spin loop after SSE client disconnect

Root cause: Fire-and-forget asyncio.create_task() patterns left orphaned
tasks that caused anyio _deliver_cancellation to spin at 100% CPU per worker.

Changes:
- Add _respond_tasks dict to track respond tasks by session_id
- Cancel respond tasks explicitly before session cleanup in remove_session()
- Cancel all respond tasks during shutdown()
- Pass disconnect callback to SSE transport for defensive cleanup
- Convert database backend from fire-and-forget to structured concurrency

The fix ensures all asyncio tasks are properly tracked, cancelled on disconnect,
and awaited to completion, preventing orphaned tasks from spinning the event loop.

Closes IBM#2360

* fix-2360: additional fixes for CPU spin loop after SSE disconnect

Follow-up fixes based on testing and review:

1. Cancellation timeout escalation (Finding 1):
   - _cancel_respond_task() now escalates on timeout by calling transport.disconnect()
   - Retries cancellation after escalation
   - Always removes task from tracking to prevent buildup

2. Redis respond loop exit path (Finding 2):
   - Changed from infinite pubsub.listen() to timeout-based get_message() polling
   - Added session existence check - loop exits if session removed
   - Allows loop to exit even without cancellation

3. Generator finally block cleanup (Finding 3):
   - Added on_disconnect_callback() in event_generator() finally block
   - Covers: CancelledError, GeneratorExit, exceptions, and normal completion
   - Idempotent - safe if callback already ran from on_client_close

4. Added load-test-spin-detector make target:
   - Spike/drop pattern to stress test session cleanup
   - Docker stats monitoring at each phase
   - Color-coded output with pass/fail indicators
   - Log file output to /tmp

Closes IBM#2360

* fix-2360: fix race condition in sse_endpoint and add stuck task tracking

Finding 1 (HIGH): Fixed race condition in sse_endpoint where respond task
was created AFTER create_sse_response(). If client disconnected during
response setup, the disconnect callback ran before the task existed,
leaving it orphaned. Now matches utility_sse_endpoint ordering:
1. Compute user_with_token
2. Create and register respond task
3. Call create_sse_response()

Finding 2 (MEDIUM): Added _stuck_tasks dict to track tasks that couldn't
be cancelled after escalation. Previously these were dropped from tracking
entirely, losing visibility. Now they're moved to _stuck_tasks for
monitoring and final cleanup during shutdown().

Updated tests to verify escalation behavior.

Closes IBM#2360

* fix-2360: add SSE failure cleanup, stuck task reaper, and full load test

Finding 1 (HIGH): Fixed orphaned respond task when create_sse_response()
fails. Added try/except around create_sse_response() in both sse_endpoint
and utility_sse_endpoint - on failure, calls remove_session() to clean up
the task and session before re-raising.

Finding 2 (MEDIUM): Added stuck task reaper that runs every 30 seconds to:
- Remove completed tasks from _stuck_tasks
- Retry cancellation for still-stuck tasks
- Prevent memory leaks from tasks that eventually complete

Finding 3 (LOW): Added test for escalation path with fake transport to
verify transport.disconnect() is called during escalation. Also added
tests for the stuck task reaper lifecycle.

Also updated load-test-spin-detector to be a full-featured test matching
load-test-ui with JWT auth, all user classes, entity ID fetching, and
the same 4000-user baseline.

* fix-2360: improve load-test-spin-detector output and reduce cycle sizes

- Reduce logging level to WARNING to suppress noisy worker messages
- Only run entity fetching and cleanup on master/standalone nodes
- Reduce cycle sizes from 4000 to 1000 peak users for faster iteration
- Update banner to reflect new cycle pattern (500 -> 750 -> 1000)
- Remove verbose JWT token generation log

* fix-2360: address remaining CPU spin loop findings

Finding 1 (HIGH): Add explicit asyncio.CancelledError handling in SSE
endpoints. In Python 3.8+, CancelledError inherits from BaseException,
not Exception, so the previous except block wouldn't catch it. Now
cleanup runs even when requests are cancelled during SSE handshake.

Finding 2 (MEDIUM): Add sleep(0.1) when Redis get_message returns None
to prevent tight loop. The loop now has guaranteed minimum sleep even
when Redis returns immediately in certain states.

Finding 3 (MEDIUM): Add _closing_sessions set to allow respond loops
to exit early. remove_session() now marks the session as closing BEFORE
attempting task cancellation, so the respond loop (Redis and DB backends)
can exit immediately without waiting for the full cancellation timeout.

Finding 4 (LOW): Already addressed in previous commit with test
test_cancel_respond_task_escalation_calls_transport_disconnect.

Signed-off-by: Mihai Criveti <crivetimihai@gmail.com>

* fix(pubsub): replace blocking listen() with timeout-based get_message()

The blocking `async for message in pubsub.listen()` pattern doesn't
respond to asyncio cancellation properly. When anyio's cancel scope
tries to cancel tasks using this pattern, the tasks don't respond
because the async iterator is blocked waiting for Redis messages.

This causes anyio's `_deliver_cancellation` to continuously reschedule
itself with `call_soon()`, creating a CPU spin loop that consumes
100% CPU per affected worker.

Changed to timeout-based polling pattern:
- Use `get_message(timeout=1.0)` with `asyncio.wait_for()`
- Loop allows cancellation check every ~1 second
- Added sleep on None/non-message responses to prevent edge case spins

Files fixed:
- mcpgateway/services/cancellation_service.py
- mcpgateway/services/event_service.py

Closes IBM#2360 (partial - additional spin sources may exist)

* fix(cleanup): add timeouts to __aexit__ calls to prevent CPU spin loops

The MCP session/transport __aexit__ methods can block indefinitely when
internal tasks don't respond to cancellation. This causes anyio's
_deliver_cancellation to spin in a tight loop, consuming ~800% CPU.

Root cause: When calling session.__aexit__() or transport.__aexit__(),
they attempt to cancel internal tasks (like post_writer waiting on
memory streams). If these tasks don't respond to CancelledError, anyio's
cancel scope keeps calling call_soon() to reschedule _deliver_cancellation,
creating a CPU spin loop.

Changes:
- Add SESSION_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT constant (5 seconds) to mcp_session_pool.py
- Wrap all __aexit__ calls in asyncio.wait_for() with timeout
- Add timeout to pubsub cleanup in session_registry.py and registry_cache.py
- Add timeout to streamable HTTP context cleanup in translate.py

This is a continuation of the fix for issue IBM#2360.

* feat(config): make session cleanup timeout configurable

Add MCP_SESSION_POOL_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT setting (default: 5.0 seconds) to
control how long cleanup operations wait for session/transport __aexit__
calls to complete.

Clarification: This timeout does NOT affect tool execution time (which
uses TOOL_TIMEOUT). It only affects cleanup of idle/released sessions
to prevent CPU spin loops when internal tasks don't respond to cancel.

Changes:
- Add mcp_session_pool_cleanup_timeout to config.py
- Add MCP_SESSION_POOL_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT to .env.example with docs
- Add to charts/mcp-stack/values.yaml
- Update mcp_session_pool.py to use _get_cleanup_timeout() helper
- Update session_registry.py and registry_cache.py to use config
- Update translate.py to use config with fallback

When to adjust:
- Increase if you see frequent "cleanup timed out" warnings in logs
- Decrease for faster shutdown (at risk of resource leaks)

* fix(sse): add deadline to cancel scope to prevent CPU spin loop

Fixes CPU spin loop (anyio#695) where _deliver_cancellation spins at
100% CPU when SSE task group tasks don't respond to cancellation.

Root cause: When an SSE connection ends, sse_starlette's task group
tries to cancel all tasks. If a task (like _listen_for_disconnect
waiting on receive()) doesn't respond to cancellation, anyio's
_deliver_cancellation keeps rescheduling itself in a tight loop.

Fix: Override EventSourceResponse.__call__ to set a deadline on the
cancel scope when cancellation starts. This ensures that if tasks
don't respond within SSE_TASK_GROUP_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT (5 seconds),
the scope times out instead of spinning indefinitely.

* fix(translate): use patched EventSourceResponse to prevent CPU spin

translate.py was importing EventSourceResponse directly from sse_starlette,
bypassing the patched version in sse_transport.py that prevents the anyio
_deliver_cancellation CPU spin loop (anyio#695).

This change ensures all SSE connections in the translate module (stdio-to-SSE
bridge) also benefit from the cancel scope deadline fix.

* fix(cleanup): reduce cleanup timeouts from 5s to 0.5s

With many concurrent connections (691 TCP sockets observed), each cancelled
SSE task group spinning for up to 5 seconds caused sustained high CPU usage.
Reducing the timeout to 0.5s minimizes CPU waste during spin loops while
still allowing normal cleanup to complete.

The cleanup timeout only affects cleanup of cancelled/released connections,
not normal operation or tool execution time.

Changes:
- SSE_TASK_GROUP_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT: 5.0 -> 0.5 seconds
- mcp_session_pool_cleanup_timeout: 5.0 -> 0.5 seconds
- Updated .env.example and charts/mcp-stack/values.yaml

* refactor(cleanup): make SSE cleanup timeout configurable with safe defaults

- Add SSE_TASK_GROUP_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT setting (default: 5.0s)
- Make sse_transport.py read timeout from config via lazy loader
- Keep MCP_SESSION_POOL_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT at 5.0s default
- Override both to 0.5s in docker-compose.yml for testing

The 5.0s default is safe for production. The 0.5s override in
docker-compose.yml allows testing aggressive cleanup to verify
it doesn't affect normal operation.

* fix(gunicorn): reduce max_requests to recycle stuck workers

The MCP SDK's internal anyio task groups don't respond to cancellation
properly, causing CPU spin loops in _deliver_cancellation. This spin
happens inside the MCP SDK (streamablehttp_client, sse_client) which
we cannot patch.

Reduce GUNICORN_MAX_REQUESTS from 10M to 5K to ensure workers are
recycled frequently, cleaning up any accumulated stuck task groups.

Root cause chain observed:
1. PostgreSQL idle transaction timeout
2. Gateway state change failures
3. SSE connections terminated
4. MCP SDK task groups spin (anyio#695)

This is a workaround until the MCP SDK properly handles cancellation.

* fix(anyio): monkey-patch _deliver_cancellation to prevent CPU spin

Root cause: anyio's _deliver_cancellation has no iteration limit.
When tasks don't respond to CancelledError, it schedules call_soon()
callbacks indefinitely, causing 100% CPU spin (anyio#695).

Solution:
- Monkey-patch CancelScope._deliver_cancellation to track iterations
- Give up after 100 iterations and log warning
- Clear _cancel_handle to stop further call_soon() callbacks

Also switched from asyncio.wait_for() to anyio.move_on_after() for
MCP session cleanup, which better propagates cancellation through
anyio's cancel scope system.

Trade-off: If cancellation gives up after 100 iterations, some tasks
may not be properly cancelled. However, GUNICORN_MAX_REQUESTS=5000
worker recycling will eventually clean up orphaned tasks.

* refactor(anyio): make _deliver_cancellation patch optional and disabled by default

The anyio monkey-patch is now feature-flagged and disabled by default:
- ANYIO_CANCEL_DELIVERY_PATCH_ENABLED=false (default)
- ANYIO_CANCEL_DELIVERY_MAX_ITERATIONS=100

This allows testing performance with and without the patch, and easy
rollback if upstream anyio/MCP SDK fixes the issue.

Added:
- Config settings for enabling/disabling the patch
- apply_anyio_cancel_delivery_patch() function for explicit control
- remove_anyio_cancel_delivery_patch() to restore original behavior
- Documentation in .env.example and docker-compose.yml

  and issue IBM#2360, document all 6 mitigation variables
- README.md: Expand "CPU Spin Loop Mitigation" section with all 3 layers,
  configuration tables, and tuning tips
- docker-compose.yml: Consolidate all mitigation variables into one
  section with SSE protection (Layer 1), cleanup timeouts (Layer 2),
  and experimental anyio patch (Layer 3)
- charts/mcp-stack/values.yaml: Add comprehensive mitigation section
  with layer documentation and cross-references
- docs/docs/operations/cpu-spin-loop-mitigation.md: NEW - Full guide
  with root cause analysis, 4-layer defense diagram, configuration
  tables, diagnostic commands, and tuning recommendations
- docs/docs/.pages: Add Operations section to navigation
- docs/docs/operations/.pages: Add nav for operations docs

Mitigation variables documented:
- Layer 1: SSE_SEND_TIMEOUT, SSE_RAPID_YIELD_WINDOW_MS, SSE_RAPID_YIELD_MAX
- Layer 2: MCP_SESSION_POOL_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT, SSE_TASK_GROUP_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT
- Layer 3: ANYIO_CANCEL_DELIVERY_PATCH_ENABLED, ANYIO_CANCEL_DELIVERY_MAX_ITERATIONS

* fix(transport): support mixed content types from MCP server tool call response

Closes IBM#2512

This fix addresses tool invocation failures for tools that return complex
content types (like ResourceLink, ImageContent, AudioContent) or contain
Pydantic-specific types like AnyUrl.

Root causes fixed:
1. tool_service.py: Usage of model_dump() without mode='json' preserved
   pydantic.AnyUrl objects, violating internal model's str type constraints.
2. streamablehttp_transport.py: Code blindly assumed types.TextContent,
   accessing .text on every item, which crashed for ResourceLink or ImageContent.

Changes:
- Updated tool_service.py to use model_dump(by_alias=True, mode='json'),
  forcing conversion of AnyUrl to JSON-compatible strings.
- Refactored streamablehttp_transport.py to inspect content.type and correctly
  map to proper MCP SDK types (TextContent, ImageContent, AudioContent,
  ResourceLink, EmbeddedResource) ensuring full protocol compatibility.
- Updated return type annotation to include all MCP content types.

- Preserve size and _meta for ResourceLink (critical for file metadata)
- Handle EmbeddedResource via model_validate

- Mixed content types (text, image, audio, resource_link, embedded)
- Metadata preservation (annotations, _meta, size)
- Unknown content type fallback
- Missing optional metadata handling

* fix(transport): convert gateway Annotations to dict for MCP SDK compatibility

mcpgateway.common.models.Annotations is a different Pydantic class from
mcp.types.Annotations. Passing gateway Annotations directly to MCP SDK
types causes ValidationError at runtime when real MCP responses include
annotations.

Fix:
- Add _convert_annotations() helper to convert gateway Annotations to dict
- Add _convert_meta() helper for consistent meta handling
- Apply conversion to all content types (text, image, audio, resource_link)

Add regression tests using actual gateway model types:
- test_call_tool_with_gateway_model_annotations
- test_call_tool_with_gateway_model_image_annotations

These tests use mcpgateway.common.models.TextContent/ImageContent with

* fix(db): release DB sessions before external HTTP calls to prevent pool exhaustion

This commit addresses issue IBM#2518 where DB connection pool exhaustion occurred
during A2A and RPC tool calls due to sessions being held during slow upstream
HTTP requests.

Changes:
- tool_service.py: Extract A2A agent data to local variables before calling
  db.commit(), allowing HTTP calls to proceed without holding the DB session.
  The A2A tool invocation logic now uses pre-extracted data instead of querying
  during the HTTP call phase.

- rbac.py: Add db.commit() and db.close() calls before returning user context
  in all authentication paths (proxy, anonymous, disabled auth). This ensures
  DB sessions are released early and not held during subsequent request processing.

- test_rbac.py: Update test to provide mock db parameter and verify that
  db.commit() and db.close() are called for proper session cleanup.

The fix follows the pattern established in other services: extract all needed
data from ORM objects, call db.commit() to release the transaction, then
proceed with external HTTP calls. This prevents "idle in transaction" states
that exhaust PgBouncer's connection pool under high load.

Load test results (4000 concurrent users, 1M+ requests):
- Success rate: 99.81%
- 502 errors reduced to 0.02% (edge cases with very slow upstreams)
- P50: 450ms, P95: 4300ms

The MCP specification does not mandate that tool names must start with
a letter - tool names are simply strings without pattern restrictions.
This fix updates the validation pattern to align with SEP-986.

Changes:
- Update VALIDATION_TOOL_NAME_PATTERN from ^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9._-]*$
  to ^[a-zA-Z0-9_][a-zA-Z0-9._/-]*$ per SEP-986
- Allow leading underscore/number and slashes in tool names
- Remove / from HTML special characters regex (not XSS-relevant)
- Update all error messages, docstrings, and documentation
- Update tests to verify new valid cases

Tool names like `_5gpt_query_by_market_id` and `namespace/tool` are
now accepted.

…BM#2537)

During gateway activation with OAuth Authorization Code flow,
`_initialize_gateway` returns empty lists because the user hasn't
completed authorization yet. Health checks then treat these empty
responses as legitimate and delete all existing tools/resources/prompts.

This change adds an `oauth_auto_fetch_tool_flag` parameter to
`_initialize_gateway` that:

- When False (default): Returns empty lists for auth_code gateways
  during health checks, preserving existing tools
- When True (activation): Skips the early return for auth_code
  gateways, allowing activation to proceed

The existing check in `_refresh_gateway_tools_resources_prompts` at
lines 4724-4729 prevents stale deletion for auth_code gateways with
empty responses.

Fixed issues from original PR:
- Corrected typo: oath -> oauth in parameter name
- Removed duplicate docstring entry
- Fixed logic bug that incorrectly skipped token fetch for
  client_credentials flow when flag was True

IBM#2514)

Refactors GatewayService, ExportService, ImportService, and A2AService to use
globally-initialized service singletons (ToolService, PromptService,
ResourceService, ServerService, RootService, GatewayService) instead of
creating private, uninitialized instances.

Uses lazy singleton pattern with __getattr__ to avoid import-time instantiation
when only exception classes are imported. This ensures services are created
after logging/plugin setup is complete.

By importing the module-level services, all gateway operations now share the
same EventService/Redis client. This ensures events such as activate/deactivate
propagate correctly across workers and reach Redis subscribers.

Changes:
- Add lazy singleton pattern using __getattr__ to service modules
- Update main.py to import singletons instead of instantiating services
- Update GatewayService.__init__ to use lazy imports of singletons
- Update ExportService.__init__ to use lazy imports of singletons
- Update ImportService.__init__ to use lazy imports of singletons
- Update A2AService methods to use tool_service singleton
- Update tests to patch singleton methods instead of class instantiation
- Add pylint disables for no-name-in-module (due to __getattr__)

The fix resolves silent event drops caused by missing initialize() calls on
locally constructed services. Cross-worker UI updates and subscriber
notifications now behave as intended.

* feat(infra): add zero-config TLS for nginx via Docker Compose profile

Add a new `--profile tls` Docker Compose profile that enables HTTPS
with zero configuration. Certificates are auto-generated on first run
or users can provide their own CA-signed certificates.

Features:
- One command TLS: `make compose-tls` starts with HTTPS on port 8443
- Auto-generates self-signed certs if ./certs/ is empty
- Custom certs: place cert.pem/key.pem in ./certs/ before starting
- Optional HTTP->HTTPS redirect via `make compose-tls-https`
- Environment variable NGINX_FORCE_HTTPS=true for redirect mode
- Works alongside other profiles (monitoring, benchmark)

New files:
- infra/nginx/nginx-tls.conf: TLS-enabled nginx configuration
- infra/nginx/docker-entrypoint.sh: Handles NGINX_FORCE_HTTPS env var

New Makefile targets:
- compose-tls: Start with HTTP:8080 + HTTPS:8443
- compose-tls-https: Force HTTPS redirect (HTTP->HTTPS)
- compose-tls-down: Stop TLS stack
- compose-tls-logs: Tail TLS service logs
- compose-tls-ps: Show TLS stack status

Docker Compose additions:
- cert_init service: Auto-generates certs using alpine/openssl
- nginx_tls service: TLS-enabled nginx reverse proxy

Documentation:
- Updated tls-configuration.md with Quick Start section
- Updated compose.md with TLS section
- Added to deployment navigation

* fix(nginx): use smart port detection for HTTPS redirect

Fix hard-coded :8443 port in HTTPS redirect that broke internal
container-to-container calls.

Problem:
- External access via port 8080 correctly redirected to :8443
- Internal container calls (no port) also redirected to :8443
- But nginx_tls only listens on 443 internally, so internal redirects failed

Solution:
Add a map directive that detects request origin based on Host header:
- Requests with :8080 in Host → redirect to :8443 (external)
- Requests without port → redirect without port, defaults to 443 (internal)

Tested:
- External: curl http://localhost:8080/health → https://localhost:8443/health ✓
- Internal: curl http://nginx_tls/health → https://nginx_tls/health (443) ✓

Thanks for this @yiannis2804. Clean implementation for Phase 1 of the IAM pre-tool plugin — token caching, bearer injection, and plugin framework integration all look solid. The dependency on PR #2858 for OAuth2 client credentials is clearly documented. A couple of notes: (1) the test fixtures for enabling metrics_aggregation_enabled are a reasonable workaround for the settings changes, (2) good use of the 60s expiration buffer in TokenCacheEntry.is_expired(). This is ready for review once #2858 progresses.
