- `5206 mc-vanilla-5206 game-container CPU ~0.68% Mem ~61.69%`
- Current monitoring model clarified.
- Not API-only: API owns discovery/metadata.
- Canonical metrics path is container Alloy remote-write to Prometheus.
- `game-dev-alloy` scrape-up panels should not be relied on while container Alloy listens on `127.0.0.1:12345`.
- Direct scrape health would require intentionally exposing container Alloy HTTP on a reachable address such as `0.0.0.0:12345` plus security review.
- Services active after cleanup:
- `prometheus`
- `grafana-server`

## Launch blockers
1. Restrict monitoring endpoint exposure.
- Prometheus previously listened on `*:9090`.
- Grafana previously listened on `*:3000`.
- node_exporter previously listened on `*:9100`.
- UFW was inactive and nftables policy was accept in the prior audit.
- Prometheus no longer scrapes node_exporter or any `:9100` jobs, but listener exposure still needs verification/removal or firewalling.
- Required fix: bind Prometheus/Grafana to loopback or management VLAN only, remove/disable any unneeded node_exporter listener, and/or firewall to trusted admin/monitoring sources.
1. Finish network exposure verification/lockdown.
- Prometheus now listens on `10.60.0.25:9090` for container remote-write and self-scrape.
- Grafana remains loopback-only on `127.0.0.1:3000`.
- zlh-monitor local Alloy remains loopback-only on `127.0.0.1:12345`.
- local node_exporter is disabled.
- Required validation: Prometheus is reachable only from intended container remote-write and trusted admin/monitoring paths; Grafana is not externally exposed; node_exporter is not listening or is firewalled; host firewall/nftables posture is acceptable.
2. Add API health scrape or equivalent application-level health signal.
- Observed `/health` previously returned `404 Cannot GET /health`.

- Token previously appeared in Prometheus YAML, backup configs, and `/etc/zlh-monitor/game-dev-discovery.env`.
- Acceptance: token stored in tight-permission env file or systemd credentials; not world-readable; not leaked in labels/URLs/logs.
6. Run lifecycle smoke test once remaining blockers are controlled enough.
- Create a game container and/or dev container.
- Confirm target appears.
- Delete it.
- Confirm target disappears now that empty discovery works.
6. Finish lifecycle smoke test delete step.
- Delete test dev/game servers.
- Confirm API discovery drops them.
- Confirm file_sd drops them.
- Confirm dashboard metrics age out as expected.
