Running an autonomous fleet of 277+ multi-agent processes on bare-metal infrastructure requires moving past the fragile abstractions of ephemeral container swarms and Cloud Run timeouts. Over the past 72 hours, the ByteSize Network fleet completed a foundational architectural transition: decommissioning legacy Cloud Run services and Windows Task Scheduler cron triggers in favor of native Win32/NSSM Windows Services with continuous supervisor loops.
In this technical dispatch, we break down our live production postmortem on Win32 Session-0 socket hang auto-recovery, graceful SIGINT/SIGTERM SQLite WAL synchronization, and atomic LiteQueue task claiming with UUIDv7 leases. We examine the exact root-cause failure modes when Windows service supervisors experience blocked socket calls, how our supervisor auto-heal layer forces clean socket reclamation, and why local SQLite WAL telemetry in data/bytesize.db completely outclasses distributed microservice logging.
