## Work Completed
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. GuruRMM Agent Mac Deployment (v0.6.1)
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** Mac agent showing offline in RMM dashboard.
|
||||
|
||||
**Investigation:**
|
||||
- Found stale agent entry from 2026-04-03 (crashed 4 seconds after connection)
|
||||
- Agent ID: 6177bcac-e046-4166-ac76-a6db68a363ab
|
||||
- Deleted from RMM database
|
||||
|
||||
**Fresh Installation:**
|
||||
- Built macOS ARM64 binary (3.2 MB): `cargo build --release`
|
||||
- Installed to: `/usr/local/bin/gururmm-agent`
|
||||
- Config: `/Library/Application Support/GuruRMM/agent.toml`
|
||||
- LaunchDaemon: `/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.azcomputerguru.gururmm.plist`
|
||||
- Logs: `/Library/Logs/GuruRMM/agent.log` and `agent-error.log`
|
||||
|
||||
**Authentication Fix:**
|
||||
- Initial problem: Config had `site_code = "SWIFT-CLOUD-6910"` + `api_key = "site-code-auth"`
|
||||
- Issue: Agent only reads `api_key` field from config (no `site_code` field in struct)
|
||||
- Solution: Set `api_key = "SWIFT-CLOUD-6910"` (the actual site code)
|
||||
- Embedded site code system only used during `install` command, not `run` command
|
||||
|
||||
**Passwordless Sudo Configuration:**
|
||||
- Created `/etc/sudoers.d/claudetools` with passwordless rules for GuruRMM operations
|
||||
- Used wildcard paths (`/Library/Application*`) to handle spaces in paths
|
||||
- Purpose: Manual ClaudeTools operations (agent already runs as root)
|
||||
|
||||
**Deployed Agent Details:**
|
||||
- **Agent ID:** 001d5198-7807-4d63-b46d-069c9c10ed75
|
||||
- **Hostname:** Mikes-MacBook-Air.local
|
||||
- **OS:** macOS 26.3.1 (Darwin ARM64)
|
||||
- **Version:** 0.6.1
|
||||
- **Site:** Main Office (SWIFT-CLOUD-6910)
|
||||
- **Status:** online
|
||||
- **Runs as:** root (no UserName key in LaunchDaemon plist)
|
||||
|
||||
**Command Execution Test:**
|
||||
- Sent via RMM API: `whoami && hostname && uname -a`
|
||||
- Result: Executed as root successfully
|
||||
- Exit code: 0
|
||||
- Duration: 61ms
|
||||
- Output:
|
||||
```
|
||||
root
|
||||
Mikes-MacBook-Air.local
|
||||
Darwin Mikes-MacBook-Air.local 25.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 25.3.0: Wed Jan 28 20:54:55 PST 2026; root:xnu-12377.91.3~2/RELEASE_ARM64_T8132 arm64
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Security Model:**
|
||||
- Agent connects once with site code authentication
|
||||
- All subsequent commands execute as root without additional auth
|
||||
- No per-command authorization prompts
|
||||
- Anyone with RMM dashboard access to "Main Office" site can execute commands
|
||||
|
||||
**Files Created:**
|
||||
- `temp/setup-sudo-for-claudetools.sh` - Initial bootstrap script (had sudoers syntax errors)
|
||||
- `temp/setup-sudo-for-claudetools-fixed.sh` - Fixed version using wildcards
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. PROJECT_STATE.md Updates
|
||||
|
||||
Updated `projects/gururmm-agent/PROJECT_STATE.md`:
|
||||
- Status changed: COMPLETE → ACTIVE
|
||||

## Pending Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
### Grabb & Durando User Provisioning (TO CONTINUE ON WINDOWS)
|
||||
|
||||
**What needs to be done:**
|
||||
1. Sign in to https://admin.microsoft.com as sysadmin@grabblaw.com
|
||||
2. Navigate to Users > Active users > Add a user
|
||||
3. Create user:
|
||||
- First name: Svetlana
|
||||
- Last name: Larionova
|
||||
- Username: slarionova@grabblaw.com
|
||||
- Password: (auto-generate or set temporary)
|
||||
- Assign appropriate license (need to check what's available)
|
||||
4. Determine computer setup:
|
||||
- Azure AD joined (modern) - just sign in with M365 account
|
||||
- On-prem AD (legacy) - need to create separate AD account
|
||||
- Hybrid - create in on-prem AD, wait for sync
|
||||
5. Configure computer login on "Parker's computer":
|
||||
- Need computer name/hostname
|
||||
- Need domain info (if on-prem AD)
|
||||
|
||||
**Questions to answer:**
|
||||
- What M365 licenses are available in the tenant?
|
||||
- What type of computer setup do they have? (Azure AD / On-prem AD / Hybrid)
|
||||
- What's the computer name that Parker was using?
|
||||
- Does she need any special folder/file permissions?
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference for computer login:**
|
||||
- Azure AD joined: Sign in directly with slarionova@grabblaw.com
|
||||
- On-prem AD: Need domain admin access to create/modify AD user
|
||||
- Hybrid: Create in AD, wait for Azure AD Connect sync (typically 30 min)

|
||||
## Technical Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### GuruRMM Agent Authentication Flow
|
||||
1. Agent loads config from TOML file
|
||||
2. Reads `api_key` field (this is actually the site code for auto-registration)
|
||||
3. Connects to WebSocket: wss://rmm-api.azcomputerguru.com/ws
|
||||
4. Sends Auth message with api_key, device_id, hostname, OS info
|
||||
5. Server validates site code and auto-registers agent to site
|
||||
6. Returns AuthAck with agent_id
|
||||
7. Agent maintains persistent WebSocket connection
|
||||
8. Server can send Command messages at any time
|
||||
9. Agent executes commands using shell (sh -c on Mac/Linux, cmd /C on Windows)
|
||||
10. Commands inherit agent's privileges (root on Mac LaunchDaemon)
|
||||
|
||||
### Embedded Site Code System
|
||||
- Purpose: Allow pre-configured agent downloads with site code embedded
|
||||
- Format: Binary trailer appended to agent executable
|
||||
- Structure: `[site_code][4-byte LE u32 length][8-byte magic "GRMM_CFG"]`
|
||||
- Used during: `install` command only
|
||||
- At runtime: Agent reads `api_key` from config file, NOT from embedded trailer
|
||||
- For Mac deployment: Manual config file creation was simpler than embedding
|
||||
|
||||
### macOS LaunchDaemon Privileges
|
||||
- No `UserName` key = runs as root
|
||||
- `RunAtLoad` = starts on boot
|
||||
- `KeepAlive` = restarts if crashes
|
||||
- Standard output/error to log files
|
||||
- ProgramArguments order matters: `--config` must come before `run` subcommand
|
||||
|
||||
### PROJECT_STATE.md Protocol
|
||||
- Mandatory for any project with PROJECT_STATE.md file
|
||||
- Read before acting, claim lock, perform action, release lock + log changes
|
||||
- Stale lock rule: >2 hours without update = abandoned, can be cleared
|
||||
- Actions requiring locks: code changes, git commits, SSH commands, DB changes, builds
|
||||
- Reading/planning does NOT require locks

## Next Steps (for Windows desktop session)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Complete Grabb & Durando user provisioning:**
|
||||
- Create slarionova@grabblaw.com in M365 Admin Center
|
||||
- Check available licenses and assign appropriate one
|
||||
- Determine computer infrastructure (Azure AD vs On-prem AD)
|
||||
- Configure computer login for "Parker's computer"
|
||||
- Test: Verify user can sign in to Outlook and computer
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Optional: Troubleshoot Grabb & Durando consent issue:**
|
||||
- Check tenant consent policies in Entra portal
|
||||
- Determine why consent flow isn't showing permissions prompt
|
||||
- Consider PowerShell-based service principal installation if needed
|
||||
- Document findings in client PROJECT_STATE.md
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Update Grabb & Durando PROJECT_STATE.md:**
|
||||
- Change status from STALLED to ACTIVE
|
||||
- Add infrastructure details (M365 tenant, admin credentials reference)
|
||||
- Log this user provisioning work in Recent Changes
|
||||
- Add any discovered information about their setup
|
||||

## Context for Next Session
|
||||
|
||||
**Current situation:**
|
||||
- Mac GuruRMM agent is fully deployed and operational
|
||||
- RMM can now execute root commands on this Mac via dashboard
|
||||
- Received urgent user provisioning request for Grabb & Durando
|
||||
- Need to create Svetlana Larionova's account by tomorrow (April 22)
|
||||
- Consent link for remediation tool had issues, will create account manually
|
||||
- User wants to continue this work on Windows desktop (easier for M365 admin tasks)
|
||||
|
||||
**Why switching machines:**
|
||||
- M365 Admin Center works better on Windows browsers
|
||||
- Likely has saved sessions/credentials for M365 portals
|
||||
- May have PowerShell modules installed if needed
|
||||
|
||||
**What's ready:**
|
||||
- Admin credentials confirmed: sysadmin@grabblaw.com / r3tr0gradE99!
|
||||
- Tenant ID confirmed: 032b383e-96e4-491b-880d-3fd3295672c3
|
||||
- New user details documented above
|
||||
- Start date is tomorrow - this is time-sensitive
