# Local Fleet Lifecycle Transitions Roster-v2 `lifecycle.enabled` and `lifecycle.desired_state` are the only persisted lifecycle authority. Systemd, tmux, generated environment, and heartbeat state are derived or observed. | Event | Desired-state write | Runtime effect | Safety boundary | | --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `fleet create` | Adds enabled/stopped by default; `--persisted-start` records running | None | Generation-guarded; validates full roster/projections. | | `fleet update` | May change enabled/desired state in complete payload | None | Generation-guarded; stable name immutable. | | `fleet delete` | Removes exact roster member | None | Removes only generated projection; retains local/quarantine evidence. | | `fleet apply` / `reconcile` | Never | Rebuilds projections; starts only enabled/running; stops disabled or stopped roster members | Current generation, private lock/paths, semantic validity, holder ownership, no unmanaged named-socket sessions. | | `fleet start ` | Never | One-shot exact service start | Exact enabled roster name and proven ownership. | | `fleet stop ` | Never | One-shot exact service stop | Exact roster name and proven ownership. | | `fleet restart ` | Never | One-shot exact service restart | Exact enabled roster name and proven ownership. | | Reboot/service activation | Never | Current installation may activate enabled units without honoring roster lifecycle | **Held for FCM-M3-002:** boot preservation for stopped/disabled agents is not yet proven; inspect/disable units rather than assuming lifecycle-safe reboot. | | v1 migration preview | Never | None | Observed active+present maps running; inactive+missing maps stopped; ambiguity blocks. | | Cutover/canary | Held for FCM-M4-002 | Not implemented by preview | Must preserve every observed stopped state. | | Rollback | Held for FCM-M4-002 | Not implemented | Must restore selected authority/projections without surprise starts or unmanaged targeting. | Explicit apply/reconcile never starts a stopped roster agent. Direct lifecycle commands are explicit one-shot actions and do not persist intent. Change durable lifecycle only through generation-guarded CRUD and then review reconciliation. Reboot preservation for stopped/disabled agents is not yet guaranteed because current enabled units and launcher projections do not carry the persisted lifecycle fence; that acceptance evidence remains FCM-M3-002. Missing/stale generation, concurrent writer, unsafe path, ownership mismatch, unmanaged session, unsupported runtime, invalid projection, and lifecycle precondition failures return stable redacted JSON and non-zero status. No command targets fuzzy names, arbitrary sockets/commands/channels/secrets, or generated files as authority. Legacy sensitive values are never printed.
