Utility scripts bundled with the Headroom repo. Most are one-off operator tools; a few are runnable as part of development workflows.

Reproducing the reconnect storm

repro_codex_replay.py reproduces the multi-agent Codex reconnect/retry storm against a local Headroom proxy (default http://127.0.0.1:8787). Use it to:

• Regression-check that /livez stays responsive under a cold-start storm.
• Empirically tune the Unit 4 pre-upstream semaphore default (HEADROOM_ANTHROPIC_PRE_UPSTREAM_CONCURRENCY).
• Exercise the Codex WS lifecycle + Anthropic HTTP path simultaneously without needing to replay captured production traffic.

Run

# Default: 8 WS + 4 HTTP clients, 30s storm, p99 /livez must stay <= 500ms.
python scripts/repro_codex_replay.py

# Tighter budget, shorter run:
python scripts/repro_codex_replay.py \
    --url http://127.0.0.1:8787 \
    --ws-clients 16 \
    --anthropic-clients 8 \
    --duration 60 \
    --livez-threshold-ms 100

# Dump the full summary as JSON for downstream tooling:
python scripts/repro_codex_replay.py --json

Exit code:

• 0 — warmup succeeded (or was skipped), storm ran for the requested duration, and /livez p99 stayed under --livez-threshold-ms.
• 1 — soft assertion failed, proxy unreachable, or unhandled exception. Proxy-unreachable is detected and reported within ~5 seconds.

Fixtures

The script loads two hand-crafted, fully synthetic JSON fixtures:

• scripts/fixtures/anthropic_replay_body.json — shape of a large agent reconnect replay /v1/messages?beta=true POST body.
• scripts/fixtures/codex_response_create_frame.json — first Codex WS frame with the {"type": "response.create", "response": {...}} envelope.

Override via --ws-frame-fixture / --anthropic-body-fixture if you have captured traffic to replay instead.

Interpretation

• /livez p99 under threshold means the event loop is not starved during the storm. If it rises with the semaphore unbounded (HEADROOM_ANTHROPIC_PRE_UPSTREAM_CONCURRENCY=10000) and drops back under the default, Unit 4's backpressure is working.
• Codex WS: opened should equal --ws-clients. response.completed typically stays low when upstream auth isn't configured locally — the goal is handshake + relay wiring, not real upstream traffic.
• Anthropic HTTP: ok_2xx + non_2xx + timed_out + errors should roughly equal attempted. Sustained non-zero timed_out during the storm is the failure signal the plan targets.

A smoke test at tests/test_scripts/test_repro_codex_replay_smoke.py exercises the script against a mock FastAPI server on every PR.

Install scripts

• install.sh — POSIX installer.
• install.ps1 — Windows PowerShell installer.

These are generated by the release pipeline; edit with care.

Windows development bootstrap

bootstrap-windows-dev.ps1 prepares a Windows development checkout. It resolves or creates a repo-local Python virtual environment, checks for Rust, installs Python build/test tooling, installs npm dependencies for the TypeScript SDK and OpenClaw plugin, and runs a small smoke set.

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/bootstrap-windows-dev.ps1

Use -CheckOnly to print detected tool versions without installing packages. Use -SkipSmoke, -SkipDocs, -SkipNode, or -SkipRust when intentionally debugging one part of the environment.

npm release asset smoke

build_npm_release_assets.mjs locally reproduces the release workflow's npm asset build. It builds the TypeScript SDK tarball, installs that tarball into OpenClaw, rewrites OpenClaw's release dependency to the same version, regenerates dist/package.json, packs OpenClaw, and then runs verify_npm_release_assets.mjs.

node scripts/build_npm_release_assets.mjs <version>

By default, output goes into a timestamped release-assets-local/<version>-* directory. Pass an explicit empty directory when you want a predictable path:

node scripts/build_npm_release_assets.mjs <version> release-assets-local/smoke

Expected tarballs:

• headroom-ai-<version>.tgz
• headroom-openclaw-<version>.tgz

The script restores package metadata after it finishes so the source tree keeps the registry-installable development dependency range.

Python release artifact smoke

build_python_release_smoke.py locally reproduces the Python artifact smoke: it builds a wheel with maturin, builds an sdist, verifies the sdist License-File metadata against tarball contents, installs the wheel into a fresh python -m venv environment, and imports the native headroom._core extension from that installed wheel.

python scripts/build_python_release_smoke.py

By default, the wheel uses the faster Cargo ci profile and output goes into a timestamped release-assets-local/python-<version>-* directory. Use --release when you want the slower shipped-wheel profile:

python scripts/build_python_release_smoke.py --release --out release-assets-local/python-release-smoke

Expected artifacts:

• headroom_ai-<version>-*.whl
• headroom_ai-<version>.tar.gz

Full local release smoke

release_smoke_all.py is the one-command local release gate. It first runs scripts/verify-versions.py, then runs the npm release asset smoke and the Python wheel/sdist smoke into sibling output directories.

python scripts/release_smoke_all.py

By default, output goes into release-assets-local/all-<version>-*/npm and release-assets-local/all-<version>-*/python. Pass an explicit empty output directory for a predictable evidence path:

python scripts/release_smoke_all.py --out release-assets-local/full-release-smoke

Use --python-release when the Python smoke should build with maturin's slower release profile. Use --skip-npm or --skip-python only when intentionally debugging one side of the artifact pipeline.
