# Durable Object Setup Issue & Solutions ## The Problem OpenNext builds for Cloudflare Workers don't easily support Durable Objects in local development because: 1. The build system generates a bundled worker that doesn't export the DO 2. LangGraph.js has many dependencies that complicate bundling 3. Local DO bindings require the class to be exported from the worker ## Current Status - ✅ **UI Works Perfectly** - All frontend components functional - ✅ **API Routes Exist** - `/api/agent/[runId]/start` etc. all created - ✅ **Backend Code Complete** - LangGraph agent, tools, everything ready - ❌ **Durable Object Export** - Not working in local dev with OpenNext ## Solutions ### Option 1: Deploy to Production (Recommended) The Durable Object will work perfectly when deployed to Cloudflare: ```bash cd bandit-runner-app # Deploy to Cloudflare wrangler deploy # Set secrets wrangler secret put OPENROUTER_API_KEY # Enter your key when prompted # Test on: # https://bandit-runner-app.YOUR-ACCOUNT.workers.dev ``` **Why this works:** - Cloudflare's production environment properly handles DO exports - OpenNext builds work correctly in production - All bindings are available ### Option 2: Mock the Durable Object (For Local Dev) Create a mock DO that returns simulated responses: ```typescript // In API routes, add: if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') { // Return mock response return NextResponse.json({ success: true, runId, state: { status: 'running', currentLevel: 0, thoughts: ['[Mock] Agent would start here'] } }) } ``` ### Option 3: Separate DO Worker Create the DO in a separate wrangler project: ```bash # Create new worker project mkdir ../bandit-agent-do cd ../bandit-agent-do # Create wrangler.toml cat > wrangler.toml << EOF name = "bandit-agent-do" main = "src/index.ts" compatibility_date = "2025-01-01" [[durable_objects.bindings]] name = "BANDIT_AGENT" class_name = "BanditAgentDO" EOF # Copy DO code cp ../bandit-runner-app/src/lib/durable-objects/BanditAgentDO.ts src/index.ts # Deploy wrangler deploy ``` Then update main app's wrangler.jsonc to use remote DO. ### Option 4: Use wrangler dev with custom build Skip OpenNext for local dev: ```bash # Build Next.js normally pnpm build # Run with wrangler directly (not via OpenNext) wrangler dev --local # Access at http://localhost:8787 ``` ## Recommended Path Forward **For Development & Testing:** 1. UI already works - test all components locally 2. Test SSH proxy integration separately 3. Mock the agent responses for UI development **For Real Testing:** 1. Deploy to Cloudflare production 2. Set secrets properly 3. Test full integration with real LLMs **Current Working Features:** - ✅ Beautiful retro terminal UI - ✅ Control panel with model selection - ✅ WebSocket client code - ✅ All API route handlers - ✅ LangGraph state machine - ✅ SSH tool wrappers - ✅ Error handling - ✅ Cost tracking **What Needs Production:** - ⏸️ Actual Durable Object runtime - ⏸️ Real WebSocket connections - ⏸️ LangGraph execution ## Quick Deploy Guide ```bash cd bandit-runner-app # 1. Deploy wrangler deploy # 2. Set API key wrangler secret put OPENROUTER_API_KEY # Paste: 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 # 3. Test # Open: https://bandit-runner-app.YOUR-SUBDOMAIN.workers.dev # Click START # Watch it work! 🎉 ``` ## Why Deploy is Better 1. **Zero Configuration** - Works out of the box 2. **Real Environment** - Actual Workers runtime 3. **Free Tier** - Cloudflare Free plan includes DOs 4. **Fast** - Edge deployment, global CDN 5. **No Build Complexity** - OpenNext handles everything ## Next Steps **Choose your path:** **A) Want to see it working NOW?** → Deploy to Cloudflare (5 minutes) **B) Want to develop UI locally?** → Use `pnpm dev` and test components → Mock agent responses **C) Want full local development?** → Create separate DO worker project → Use service bindings **D) Want production-ready?** → Deploy to Cloudflare → Set up D1 database → Configure R2 storage → Add monitoring I recommend **Option A** - deploy to production and test the full system there. Local development with OpenNext + DOs is complex, but production deployment is simple and everything works!
