CodeCartography remained on Checking your session because the authenticated ingress routes /api to the autocoder-engine service while the deployment had zero replicas and no endpoint. The static frontend itself remained healthy.
Scaled deployment autocoder-engine in namespace autocoder-engine from 0 to 1 replica. Retained image gitea.app.lan/autocoder/autocoder-engine:dev-3b21379153af. No ConfigMap or secret was changed.
Startup logs confirmed issue reporting, requirements scheduling, and categorization scheduling disabled. No worker pod was created. The single preserved #543 task remained queued with command state queued-provider-capacity-checkpoint and no worker owner.
Before recovery, https://codecartography.dev/api/auth/session returned HTTP 503. After rollout it returned HTTP 200 with a valid unauthenticated session document in 22 ms; /healthz returned HTTP 200. Deployment reported 1 desired and 1 ready replica, and the service endpoint was restored.
Scale deployment autocoder-engine back to zero only if API process behavior violates the pause controls. Doing so also makes CodeCartography authentication and APIs unavailable.
