Implement systemd service approach for nixos-rebuild operations
Some checks failed
Build and Release / build-and-release (push) Failing after 1m58s

- Add cm-rebuild systemd service for process isolation
- Add sudo permissions for service control and journal access
- Remove verbose flag for cleaner output
- Ensures reliable rebuild operations without agent crashes

-**Git Clone Approach**: Implemented for nixos-rebuild to avoid directory permissions
-**Visual Feedback**: Directional arrows for service status (↑ starting, ↓ stopping, ↻ restarting)
### Terminal Popup for Real-time Output - IMPLEMENTED ✅
**Status (as of 2025-10-26):**
-**Terminal Popup UI**: 80% screen coverage with terminal styling and color-coded output
-**ZMQ Streaming Protocol**: CommandOutputMessage for real-time output transmission
-**Keyboard Controls**: ESC/Q to close, ↑↓ to scroll, manual close (no auto-close)
-**Real-time Display**: Live streaming of command output as it happens
-**Version-based Agent Reporting**: Shows "Agent: v0.1.13" instead of nix store hash
**Current Implementation Issues:**
-**Agent Process Crashes**: Agent dies during nixos-rebuild execution
-**Inconsistent Output**: Different outputs each time 'R' is pressed
-**Limited Output Visibility**: Not capturing all nixos-rebuild progress
**PLANNED SOLUTION - Systemd Service Approach:**
**Problem**: Direct nixos-rebuild execution in agent causes process crashes and inconsistent output.
**Solution**: Create dedicated systemd service for rebuild operations.
**Implementation Plan:**
1. **NixOS Systemd Service**:
```nix
systemd.services.cm-rebuild = {
description = "CM Dashboard NixOS Rebuild";
serviceConfig = {
Type = "oneshot";
ExecStart = "${pkgs.nixos-rebuild}/bin/nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --option sandbox false";
WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/cm-dashboard/nixos-config";
User = "root";
StandardOutput = "journal";
StandardError = "journal";
};
};
```
2. **Agent Modification**:
- Replace direct nixos-rebuild execution with: `systemctl start cm-rebuild`
- Stream output via: `journalctl -u cm-rebuild -f --no-pager`
- Monitor service status for completion detection
3. **Benefits**:
- **Process Isolation**: Service runs independently, won't crash agent
- **Consistent Output**: Always same deterministic rebuild process
- **Proper Logging**: systemd journal handles all output management
- **Resource Management**: systemd manages cleanup and resource limits
- **Status Tracking**: Can query service status (running/failed/success)
**Next Priority**: Implement systemd service approach for reliable rebuild operations.
**Keyboard Controls Status:**
- **Services Panel**:
- R (restart) ✅ Working
