Added detailed debug logging to all status update paths to help
diagnose why "unhealthy" status appears in the UI.
## Logging Added
### 1. PushServerUpdateJob (Sentinel updates)
**Location**: Lines 303-315
**Logs**: Status changes from Sentinel push updates
**Data tracked**:
- Old vs new status
- Container statuses that led to aggregation
- Status flags (hasRunning, hasUnhealthy, hasUnknown)
### 2. GetContainersStatus (SSH updates)
**Location**: Lines 441-449, 346-354, 358-365
**Logs**: Status changes from SSH-based checks
**Scenarios**:
- Normal status aggregation
- Recently restarted containers (kept as degraded)
- Applications not running (set to exited)
**Data tracked**:
- Old vs new status
- Container statuses
- Restart count and timing
- Whether containers exist
### 3. Application Model Status Accessor
**Location**: Lines 706-712, 726-732
**Logs**: When status is set without explicit health information
**Issue**: Highlights cases where health defaults to "unhealthy"
**Data tracked**:
- Raw value passed to setter
- Final result after default applied
## How to Use
### Enable Debug Logging
Edit `.env` or `config/logging.php` to set log level to debug:
```
LOG_LEVEL=debug
```
### Monitor Logs
```bash
tail -f storage/logs/laravel.log | grep STATUS-DEBUG
```
### Log Format
All logs use `[STATUS-DEBUG]` prefix for easy filtering:
```
[2025-11-19 13:00:00] local.DEBUG: [STATUS-DEBUG] Sentinel status change
{
"source": "PushServerUpdateJob",
"app_id": 123,
"app_name": "my-app",
"old_status": "running:unknown",
"new_status": "running:healthy",
"container_statuses": [...],
"flags": {...}
}
```
## What to Look For
1. **Default to unhealthy**: Check Application model accessor logs
2. **Status flipping**: Compare timestamps between Sentinel and SSH updates
3. **Incorrect aggregation**: Check flags and container_statuses
4. **Stale database values**: Check if old_status persists across multiple logs
## Next Steps
After gathering logs, we can:
1. Identify the exact source of "unhealthy" status
2. Determine if it's a default issue, aggregation bug, or timing problem
3. Apply targeted fix based on evidence

This commit fixes container health status aggregation to correctly handle
unknown health states and edge case container states across all resource types.
Changes:
1. **Preserve Unknown Health State**
- Add three-way priority: unhealthy > unknown > healthy
- Detect containers without healthchecks (null health) as unknown
- Apply across GetContainersStatus, ComplexStatusCheck, and Service models
2. **Handle Edge Case Container States**
- Add support for: created, starting, paused, dead, removing
- Map to appropriate statuses: starting (unknown), paused (unknown), degraded (unhealthy)
- Prevent containers in transitional states from showing incorrect status
3. **Add :excluded Suffix for Excluded Containers**
- Parse exclude_from_hc flag from docker-compose YAML
- Append :excluded suffix to individual container statuses
- Skip :excluded containers in non-excluded aggregation sections
- Strip :excluded suffix in excluded aggregation sections
- Makes it clear in UI which containers are excluded from monitoring

When all containers are excluded from health checks, display their actual status
with :excluded suffix instead of misleading hardcoded statuses. This prevents
broken UI state with incorrect action buttons and provides clarity that monitoring
is disabled.

Track container restart counts from Docker and detect crash loops to provide better visibility into application health issues.
- Add restart_count, last_restart_at, and last_restart_type columns to applications table
- Detect restart count increases from Docker inspect data and send notifications
- Show restart count badge in UI with warning icon on Logs navigation
- Distinguish between crash restarts and manual restarts
- Implement 30-second grace period to prevent false "exited" status during crash loops
- Reset restart count on manual stop, restart, and redeploy actions
- Add unit tests for restart count tracking logic
This helps users quickly identify when containers are in crash loops and need attention, even when the container status flickers between states during Docker's restart backoff period.
