Documents the demo-productization work from this branch: the Northstar Mobility fictional concept and scope, the five named scenarios and their fixed records, the seed/date-anchoring strategy (including the real bug it fixed), the in-app Demo Guide's design and the English-suggested- questions decision, and an operational runbook covering 5/10-minute demo flows, reset, Unraid redeploy and rollback. Updates README with current test counts and pointers to the new docs.

# PoC runbook
|
||
|
||
For the demo-specific 5-minute/10-minute walkthroughs, reset behaviour, Unraid
|
||
redeploy/rollback steps and troubleshooting, see `docs/demo-release/demo-runbook.md`.
|
||
This document covers general environment bootstrap and n8n setup.
|
||
|
||
## Bootstrap (clean checkout)
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cp .env.example .env
|
||
make demo
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`make demo` runs `docker compose up --build -d` (migrations run automatically on API
|
||
container startup, see `backend/entrypoint.sh`) and then seeds the deterministic dataset.
|
||
Equivalently, without `make`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cp .env.example .env
|
||
docker compose up --build -d
|
||
docker compose exec api python -m app.cli seed --reset
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Verify:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl http://localhost:8128/health # {"status":"ok",...}
|
||
curl -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n" http://localhost:1228/ # 200
|
||
docker compose run --rm api pytest -q # all tests pass
|
||
docker compose run --rm api ruff check . # clean
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## n8n automation (one-time per environment)
|
||
|
||
The n8n image used here (n8nio/n8n:latest, 2.x) requires an owner account before any
|
||
workflow — including webhook registration — works reliably; `N8N_BASIC_AUTH_ACTIVE` no
|
||
longer gates this. This is a one-time step per fresh `docker compose down -v`:
|
||
|
||
1. Open `http://localhost:5678/setup` and create an owner account (any email/password
|
||
meeting the 8+ characters / 1 number / 1 capital rule — no email verification is
|
||
required). Skip the optional survey/license-key dialogs that follow.
|
||
2. Import and activate the return-processing workflow:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
make n8n-setup
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
which runs:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker compose exec n8n n8n import:workflow --input=//imports/mobilityops-return-processing.json
|
||
docker compose exec n8n n8n publish:workflow --id=mobilityops-return-processing
|
||
docker compose restart n8n
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(`n8n import:workflow` always leaves the workflow deactivated regardless of its
|
||
`"active"` field; `publish:workflow` + a restart is what actually activates it.)
|
||
|
||
Verify the full round trip:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# after logging in and registering any return via the UI or API
|
||
curl -b cookies.txt http://localhost:8128/api/v1/workflows | grep succeeded
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
A failed/offline n8n does not roll back the return — the outbox event simply stays
|
||
`pending`/`failed` and is safely retryable from the Automation page.
|
||
|
||
### Second workflow: scheduled quality scan
|
||
|
||
Import and publish the same way:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
make n8n-setup-scan
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
which runs:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker compose exec n8n n8n import:workflow --input=//imports/mobilityops-scheduled-quality-scan.json
|
||
docker compose exec n8n n8n publish:workflow --id=mobilityops-scheduled-quality-scan
|
||
docker compose restart n8n
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Verify:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -X POST http://localhost:8128/api/v1/integrations/n8n/scheduled-scan \
|
||
-H "X-Service-Token: <MOBILITYOPS_CALLBACK_TOKEN from .env>"
|
||
# {"created": {...}}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Trigger a live run from n8n's own UI ("Manual test trigger" node → Execute Workflow) to
|
||
confirm the round trip without waiting for the hourly schedule. It does not depend on
|
||
RAGcore or MCP Hub and ships `"active": false`, so it never fires anywhere until
|
||
deliberately published with a real service token.
|
||
|
||
### Existing shared n8n on the Unraid review server
|
||
|
||
The Unraid deployment uses the existing n8n at `http://192.168.10.150:5678`; it does not
|
||
start MobilityOps's bundled n8n service. `compose.unraid.yaml` places that fallback behind
|
||
the opt-in `bundled-n8n` profile. Configure the API target and publish the workflow with:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sed -i \
|
||
's|^N8N_WEBHOOK_URL=.*|N8N_WEBHOOK_URL=http://192.168.10.150:5678/webhook/mobilityops-return|' \
|
||
.env
|
||
./deploy/unraid/setup-existing-n8n.sh \
|
||
n8n \
|
||
http://192.168.10.150:1236/api/v1/integrations/n8n/return-callback
|
||
docker compose -p mobilityops -f compose.yaml -f compose.unraid.yaml up -d db api web
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The setup script reads the callback token from the mode-0600 deployment `.env`, builds and
|
||
removes a temporary server-side import without writing the token to Git, and restarts the
|
||
existing n8n so the production webhook is registered. The imported configuration remains
|
||
inside n8n's protected application data. The callback travels through the MobilityOps web
|
||
proxy, so the shared n8n container does not need direct database access or membership of
|
||
the MobilityOps Docker network.
|
||
|
||
Publish the scheduled quality-scan workflow the same way:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
./deploy/unraid/setup-scheduled-scan.sh \
|
||
n8n \
|
||
http://192.168.10.150:1236/api/v1/integrations/n8n/scheduled-scan
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Required operational checks
|
||
|
||
- API and web health (`GET /health`, web root `200`);
|
||
- database migration level (`docker compose exec api alembic current`);
|
||
- pending/failed outbox count (Automation page, or `GET /api/v1/workflows?status=failed`);
|
||
- RAGcore provider state (`GET /api/v1/knowledge/status`; demo provider is always
|
||
`available`, RAGcore adapter reports `unavailable` when unreachable);
|
||
- n8n connectivity (`docker compose logs n8n`, or submit a return and watch `/automation`);
|
||
- MCP provider endpoint authorization (`curl` the four `/api/v1/integrations/mcp/*`
|
||
routes with and without a valid `X-Service-Token` — see
|
||
`artifacts/evidence/final-summary.md` for sample calls);
|
||
- deterministic demo reset (`POST /api/v1/demo/reset` as Operations Manager, or `make seed`).
|
||
|
||
## Recovery expectations
|
||
|
||
- database restart: application reconnects (SQLAlchemy connection pool, `pool_pre_ping=True`);
|
||
- n8n outage: events remain `pending` and are retried with exponential backoff, then
|
||
`failed` after 5 attempts and safely retryable from `/automation`;
|
||
- RAGcore outage: `/knowledge` shows `unavailable`, all operational pages continue working;
|
||
- MCP Hub outage: the web application is unaffected — MCP endpoints are a separate,
|
||
independently-authenticated API surface;
|
||
- failed demo experiment: Operations Manager reset (`POST /api/v1/demo/reset`) restores
|
||
the deterministic seed, including all named S1–S6 demo scenarios.
