What

fetchMembers in pkg/daemon/managed.go calls ListNodes against the registry with no retry and no backoff. A transient registry outage (network flap, restart) causes an immediate cycle failure and the managed engine skips a fill until the next tick (cycle interval, default 60 s).

Fix

Wraps the ListNodes call in a retry loop with exponential backoff (1 s → 2 s → 4 s → 8 s → 16 s, up to 5 attempts). Total worst-case delay: ~31 s.

  • On successful recovery during retry → clean members list returned
  • On exhaustion (all 5 fail) → last error wrapped with attempt count

Both callers (runCycle and Bootstrap) already handle errors gracefully (log + return partial result).

Verification

  • go build ./pkg/daemon/ — pass
  • go vet ./pkg/daemon/ — clean
  • go test ./pkg/daemon/ -count=1 -timeout 120s — pass (69.7s)

…poll (PILOT-311)

fetchMembers calls ListNodes against the registry with no retry and no
backoff. A transient registry outage (network flap, restart) causes an
immediate cycle failure and the managed engine skips a fill until the
next tick (cycle interval, default 60 s).

This change wraps the ListNodes call in a retry loop with exponential
backoff (1 s → 2 s → 4 s → 8 s → 16 s, up to 5 attempts). On
successful recovery during retry, the caller sees a clean members list
with no error. On exhaustion (all 5 attempts fail), the caller receives
the last error wrapped with the attempt count — callers in runCycle and
Bootstrap already handle errors gracefully (log + return partial
result).

Total worst-case delay: ~31 s, well within a typical cycle interval.

Closes PILOT-311

🦞 Matthew Explains — #193 PILOT-311

What this PR does

Adds exponential backoff retry to fetchMembers registry poll — wraps the ListNodes call in a retry loop (1s → 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s, up to 5 attempts, ~31s worst-case). Currently fetchMembers has NO retry; a single transient registry outage causes the managed engine to skip a fill cycle.

Scope

  • Files: 1 file (pkg/daemon/managed.go)
  • Delta: +28/−15 lines
  • Tier: small (≤3 files, ≤50 LoC)

Tickets

Review Notes

  • Both callers (runCycle and Bootstrap) already handle errors gracefully — this adds resilience, not new failure paths
  • Go ubuntu passes, Go macos fails (likely darwin-specific build issue, not related to this change)
  • Architecture gates failures appear pre-existing (not specific to this PR)
  • No labels, no canary configured
  • Standard operator review required before merge

Verification

  • go build ./pkg/daemon/ — pass
  • go vet ./pkg/daemon/ — clean
  • go test ./pkg/daemon/ -count=1 -timeout 120s — pass
