Two runs on one host destroyed each other's containers, producing mid-test "No such container" failures that look like real defects. The automated builder runs a full local CI on the same box every few minutes, so the machine is contended almost always and this has red-ed both a hand run and an automated gate. Two independent causes are fixed here. Container names were hardcoded, and docker names are global rather than scoped by compose project, so two runs collided on the same name; every name now takes an optional suffix that the harness sets from the run id. And the cleanup sweep matched a label shared by every run, so one run's teardown force-removed another's containers; resources now also carry a per-run label and the sweep can be narrowed to it. A third hazard turned up that was not in the original report: the sidecar suite passes explicit compose project names, which override the run-scoped project and put it outside the shared prefix entirely. Its project names, network, and derived container references are now scoped too. Both are default-off. With the suffix unset, names render exactly as they do today and a bare compose invocation is unchanged, which is what keeps the hosted CI and the documentation correct. A cleanup run with no run id still reaps everything, which is what a manual "clear the box" wants. The literal-name sweep was not sufficient: six scripts build container names dynamically from node labels, and two suites create their own containers outside compose. Those are handled at their construction sites. Verified: syntax check on all modified scripts; compose validation on every modified file with the suffix both set and unset; and a synthetic two-run reproduction that shows the old cleanup destroying a bystander run and the new one leaving it alone. Known gap: subnets are still hardcoded, so two concurrent full runs will still collide on address-pool overlap. That fix reaches into topology configs, chaos scenarios, diagrams and production source, so it is left for its own change rather than half-done here.
ACL Allowlist Test
Six Docker nodes use per-node ACL files mounted at the hardcoded runtime paths:
node-aandnode-bcarry the insider allowlist (node-a,node-b,node-e,node-f)node-candnode-deach carry a broad allowlist containing every node aliasnode-eandnode-fdo not mount any ACL files locally- every node gets a generated
/etc/fips/hostswith aliases fornode-athroughnode-f
This lets us test three different node behaviors at once:
- insiders (
a,b) explicitly allowa,b,e, andf - outsiders (
c,d) allow everyone locally, but still cannot join because insiders reject them - allowed remotes (
e,f) rely on the insider ACLs and do not need local ACL files

The generated fips.key fixtures use a mix of bare hex and nsec1... values.
FIPS accepts either format in key files.
Run
Build the Linux binaries and test image:
./testing/scripts/build.sh --no-docker
Start the ACL test mesh:
./testing/acl-allowlist/generate-configs.sh
docker compose -f testing/acl-allowlist/docker-compose.yml up -d --build
Or run the full integration check:
./testing/acl-allowlist/test.sh
test.sh regenerates the ACL fixtures automatically before starting Docker.
The generated ACL files use alias names, and the generated hosts file makes
those aliases resolvable at runtime.
The ACL harness pins the expected test entrypoint explicitly so it does not
accidentally reuse an older fips-test:latest image with a different startup
script.
Docker service/container/hostname identifiers in this harness intentionally use
service-*, fips-acl-container-*, and host-* names so they do not collide with the logical FIPS aliases
node-a through node-f. For data-plane checks and operator examples, use the
explicit FIPS names such as node-a.fips and node-d.fips.
ACL paths are fixed in this branch:
/etc/fips/peers.allow/etc/fips/peers.deny
Mounted ACL files in this harness:
node-aandnode-b: insider allowlist plusALLdeny fallbacknode-candnode-d: broad local allowlist used by outsider nodes trying to blend innode-eandnode-f: no ACL files mounted- all nodes:
/etc/fips/hostsaliases fornode-athroughnode-f
Generated fixture location:
testing/acl-allowlist/generated-configs/
Inspect peer state:
docker exec fips-acl-container-a fipsctl show peers
docker exec fips-acl-container-b fipsctl show peers
docker exec fips-acl-container-c fipsctl show peers
docker exec fips-acl-container-d fipsctl show peers
docker exec fips-acl-container-e fipsctl show peers
docker exec fips-acl-container-f fipsctl show peers
Inspect the loaded ACL state directly:
docker exec fips-acl-container-a fipsctl acl show
Use explicit .fips names when checking reachability through the FIPS overlay:
docker exec fips-acl-container-a ping node-d.fips
docker exec fips-acl-container-a ping npub1n9lpnv0592cc2ps6nm0ca3qls642vx7yjsv35rkxqzj2vgds52sqgpverl.fips
The output shows both the original ACL file entries and the resolved effective npub entries.

Visible rejection logs:
docker compose -f testing/acl-allowlist/docker-compose.yml logs -f service-a service-b service-c service-d service-e service-f
On startup, node-c and node-d immediately try their configured outbound
static connection to node-a. Their own ACLs permit that attempt, but the
insider ACL on node-a still rejects both peers. Because node-a also has
static peer stanzas for node-c and node-d, you may see both
outbound_connect and inbound_handshake rejection messages during startup.
The outsider-initiated path emits messages like:
Rejected peer by ACL ... context=inbound_handshake decision=denylist match
Those messages are now emitted at debug level. This harness enables
RUST_LOG=info,fips::node=debug so the ACL rejection details stay visible in
test logs, and operators can temporarily raise log level the same way when
diagnosing ACL issues locally.
A later ping6 from node-c.fips does not emit a new inbound_handshake message.
The ping uses the data-plane session path, and since no peer session to
node-a.fips was established, it just times out.
Stop and clean up:
docker compose -f testing/acl-allowlist/docker-compose.yml down
