feat(engine): agent@machine addressing on POST /v1/dm - #452
Conversation
Resolves agent@machine against the agent's current node (node name or machine_id) and sends through the existing DM pipeline, so delivery, idempotency, and fanout are unchanged. Stale addresses 404 instead of reaching the agent elsewhere. Adds agent.sendTo() to the TypeScript SDK. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

🔴 Addressed DM reaches a moved agent
If a recipient moves after resolveAgentAddress, sendDirectMessage sends to its name without rechecking the node. The DM reaches the new node despite the sender specifying the old one.
Learn more
An addressed DM is meant to bind delivery to the agent's current machine. The address lookup selects the recipient's name and node, but sendDm independently looks up the recipient by name. Its message and delivery are written later in persist, without a condition that the recipient still has the selected ID and node. A node move between these steps lets an old address send to the agent at its new node. A release and name reuse can instead select a different agent with the same name.
Example: Bob is on laptop when Alice sends to bob@laptop. Bob moves to desktop after address resolution. The DM lookup still finds Bob by name, and the accepted delivery targets desktop instead of rejecting the stale address.
Recommended fix: Pass the resolved agent ID and node ID into sendDm, and enforce the location and identity condition in the atomic admission write. Reject an address that changed before admission with address_not_found. Avoid relying on a second name lookup alone.

Fixed. eb6c8cb moved the check onto the same recipient row the DM is sent to. 8400db2 re-checks it atomically: for an addressed send, the message insert's body comes from a subquery that is NULL unless the recipient is still unreleased on the resolved node. A move or release before commit rolls back the whole admission batch, and the caller gets address_not_found (same technique as the A2A registration guard). Covered by rolls back an addressed send when the agent moves between selection and commit; that test gets 201 with the guard removed.

🟡 Accepted DM retries lose their result
After an addressed DM succeeds, a recipient move makes resolveAgentAddress reject retries before idempotency replay. The sender gets address_not_found instead of the accepted DM's result.
Learn more
POST /v1/to/:address advertises the same Idempotency-Key behavior as direct DM sends. A completed DM is stored by runIdempotent, but this endpoint checks the mutable address before calling it. A move or release between acceptance and retry now returns 404, even though the request already succeeded. The fingerprint passed into sendDirectMessage also contains only the resolved name, not the requested address, so different addresses for the same agent cannot be distinguished by the idempotency record.
Example: Alice sends bob@laptop with key send-1; the message is accepted, but its HTTP response is lost. Bob moves to desktop. Retrying the exact request and key yields 404 instead of the accepted message ID.
Recommended fix: Check a stored idempotency record for the original address and payload before resolving a new recipient, and include the address in the new endpoint's fingerprint or dedicated idempotency scope. Preserve the current location guard only for fresh admissions.

Fixed in eb6c8cb. The address is now resolved inside the idempotent operation, so a replay never consults the current location, and the fingerprint includes the raw address.

Idempotent retry can 404 after move
Medium Severity
resolveAgentAddress runs before sendDirectMessage, so a retry of a successful POST /v1/to/:address can return 404 address_not_found if the agent has moved, instead of replaying the stored 201. POST /v1/dm still hits the idempotency store first, then looks up the recipient.

If the target moves or is released after resolveAgentAddress returns but before sendDirectMessage resolves the bare agent name, the message is admitted for the agent's new location—or even for the released identity—instead of returning address_not_found. Preserve the resolved agent/node constraint and validate it atomically with DM admission so a stale address cannot be invalidated between these two operations.

When a successful addressed send is retried with the same Idempotency-Key after the target moves, is released, or has its node renamed, this lookup returns 404 before runIdempotent can replay the stored 201 response. This breaks recovery from a lost response; idempotency lookup needs to occur before mutable address validation while still fingerprinting the original address.

@
Node names and machine_id values are currently accepted as arbitrary non-empty strings, but splitting only on the last @ makes an existing address such as bob@ops@example.com resolve as agent bob@ops on machine example.com. Agents hosted on a node whose only usable identifier contains @ therefore cannot be reached through this endpoint; the address format must escape the separator, try unambiguous splits, or reject such identifiers when they are created.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Fixed in 8400db2. Every @ is now a candidate separator (addressSplits); the recipient lookup queries each candidate agent name and keeps the reading that names an agent on that machine. If two readings both match, the request returns 400 ambiguous_address. Covered by resolves @ inside an agent name or a machine name, and rejects an ambiguous address.

Cloud tears down a sandbox by deleting its node row, which nulls the agent's location_node_id. The null node was formatted and matched as `direct`, so a torn-down sandbox agent advertised agent@direct and accepted sends nothing could deliver. `direct` now requires a direct node; an agent with no node reports address: null and matches nothing.

Do not publish an address that cannot select its agent.
When agent x is on broker ops@example.com and agent x@ops is on broker example.com, this formatter gives both x@ops@example.com. The new ambiguity check then rejects that address with 400 ambiguous_address. The brokers in the conformance test have no machine_id alias, so neither advertised address works for an addressed DM or a reply. Make the published address unambiguous, or report that no usable address is available for this configuration.

Mitigated in dc54b1d: formatAgentAddress now prefers a machine identifier without @ (the node's machine_id when its name has one, or vice versa), so the address has a single reading wherever the node offers one. Covered by publishes a machine identifier without @ when the node has one. What remains is the case where every identifier on the node contains @ and a colliding agent/node pair exists. Detecting that needs a workspace-wide lookup per formatted address, so it stays a request-time 400 ambiguous_address rather than a publish-time null.

@khaliqgant, I can now verify the mitigation in commit dc54b1d6. formatAgentAddress prefers a machine identifier without @, and the new test covers that choice.
The original collision remains. In packages/engine/src/engine/address.ts, addressSplits gives x@ops@example.com two readings. selectAddressedRecipient returns 400 ambiguous_address when both agents exist. A broker identifier without @ does not prevent this when the agent name contains @.
The formatter can therefore still publish an address that cannot select its agent. I’ll keep this finding open.
You are interacting with an AI system.
Replace POST /v1/to/:address with an optional `address` field on POST /v1/dm (exactly one of `to` or `address`). The address is a public name, not a credential, so a separate URL added a second DM route, rate bucket, and cloud admission classification for no benefit. Resolution, the atomic admission re-check, idempotency, and sender addresses are unchanged; the DM route diff against main is now a few lines.

state that `machine` uses the broker node’s `machine_id` when its name contains
`@` or is `direct`; otherwise retain the existing node-name and null behavior.
Ensure the description matches `formatAgentAddress` and the documented `POST
/dm` address format.

Outside diff comments:
In `@packages/engine/src/routes/dm.ts`:
- Around line 96-101: Update trackDmSent to use the resolved recipient name
returned by sendDm for to_agent_name, falling back to the existing to value only
when the result lacks a recipient name. Extend the callback data type as needed
to expose that returned value.

…ed DM recipient - openapi/README: a published address uses the node's machine_id when its name contains @ or is `direct`. - relaycast_server_dm_sent reports the resolved recipient name rather than the raw agent@machine for addressed sends.

Summary
POST /v1/dmacceptsaddress(agent@machine) in place ofto(exactly one of the two). Everything else about the DM is unchanged: delivery, idempotency, fanout and webhooks.Resolution
machineis the agent's current broker node, matched by node name ormachine_id, ordirectfor a self-connected agent.directis reserved and never matches a broker; a broker nameddirectis addressed bymachine_id.@is tried as the separator, so names containing@resolve. Two matching readings →400 ambiguous_address.404 address_not_found; malformed →400 invalid_address.bodyis a subquery that is NULL unless the recipient is still unreleased on the resolved node, so a move that races the send rolls the batch back asaddress_not_found. This is the same technique as the A2A registration guard.fleet-sandbox-<uuid>), so a sandboxed agent isworker@fleet-sandbox-<uuid>. When cloud deletes the node row at teardown, the agent has no address (address: null) rather than falling back to@direct.Idempotency: the address is resolved inside the idempotent operation, so an accepted retry replays even after the agent moves. The fingerprint includes the address, so reusing a key for a different address, or for a send by name, returns 409.

Note
Medium Risk
Changes core DM admission and recipient resolution with race-sensitive atomic guards; misconfiguration could misroute or reject legitimate sends, though behavior is heavily tested and fail-closed on stale addresses.
Overview
Adds
agent@machineDM routing soPOST /v1/dmaccepts exactly one oftooraddress, targeting an agent only while it is hosted on the named broker node (machine_id/node name),directfor self-connected agents, or a cloud sandbox node name.The engine introduces address parsing/formatting (
address.ts), exposes nullableaddresson agent APIs, and stamps each DM with the sender’smessage.agent_address(server-owned metadata, not overridable by callers) on send responses, live/redelivereddm.received, deliveries, and history so recipients can reply by address. Stale or ambiguous addresses fail with404 address_not_found/400 ambiguous_address; a second check inside the admission write rolls back sends if the recipient moves before commit.Idempotency fingerprints include
address; accepted retries replay even after a move, while key reuse across a different address or a name-based send returns 409. TypeScript SDK addsagent.sendTo(address, text); types and OpenAPI are updated. Documented as an Unreleased - Minor release.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 554187d.
