Envoy proxy / service mesh

v0.1.11

Envoy admin-API ops: cluster + listener + runtime + config + cert inventory, server info, logging level read/write, plus traffic-shifting mutators (drain listeners, healthcheck fail/ok, reset counters) for planned failovers and incident response. Default admin URL http://127.0.0.1:9901; override via ENVOY_ADMIN env.

Install

emisar pack install fetches this pack, re-validates it, and verifies its content hash against the --hash below — the exact bytes this page was rendered against, so a tampered copy is rejected — before copying it into the runner's packs dir. The command reloads a running daemon itself; no manual restart.

on the runner host
sudo emisar pack install envoy --hash sha256:f0c2e567bfb0f14af756ba3c0a062135344a41e665b96770eab356ec524b0cdb

  • envoy.certs exec low

    GET /certs

    List active TLS certs known to Envoy — subjects, expiry, days remaining.

  • envoy.clusters exec low

    GET /clusters

    List all clusters with endpoint health + stats. Use for "which upstream is unhealthy?".

  • envoy.config_dump exec low

    GET /config_dump

    Dump full xDS config — bootstrap, clusters, routes, listeners. This surfaces the entire effective config, which can carry secrets (TLS private keys / SDS material, upstream credentials, auth headers). The runner's redaction is a fail-closed backstop, not a guarantee — it is pattern-bound and can miss a bespoke secret whose name and value match no rule.

  • envoy.drain_listeners exec high

    POST /drain_listeners

    Mark all listeners as draining. Existing connections close on their own as requests complete; no new connections accepted on drained listeners. Use during a planned restart to drain traffic before flipping a load balancer.

  • envoy.healthcheck_fail exec high

    POST /healthcheck/fail

    Mark Envoy unhealthy via its admin API. External health checks see failure; load balancer pulls this instance out of rotation. Use during planned maintenance to drain traffic before a restart.

  • envoy.healthcheck_ok exec medium

    POST /healthcheck/ok

    Mark Envoy healthy again. Reverses healthcheck_fail. Load balancer starts sending traffic again on the next health check.

  • envoy.listeners exec low

    GET /listeners

    List all active listeners with bind address.

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.logging_get exec low

    POST /logging

    Show current per-component log levels.

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.logging_set exec medium

    POST /logging?level=<level>

    Sets all components to one log level. Use "debug" for triage, then revert to "info".

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.ready exec low

    GET /ready

    Check readiness — 200 if Envoy is fully initialized; 503 otherwise.

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.reset_counters exec medium

    POST /reset_counters

    Reset all Envoy stat counters to zero. Use before isolating a specific test scenario or after diagnosing a noisy historical counter. Histograms and gauges unaffected.

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.runtime exec low

    GET /runtime

    Show runtime overrides (feature flags + numeric overrides).

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.server_info exec low

    GET /server_info

    Show Envoy version, uptime, hot-restart state, command-line.

    View source on GitHub
  • envoy.stats exec low

    GET /stats (filter)

    Show Envoy stats matching a regex filter. Use 'cluster|listener|server' as a sane default.
