ActivityService
ActivityService serves the trail to a viewer, mirroring magus.viewer.v1's shape: List a page of events (newest first), Get a payload blob by ref. Mounted on the console's human-facing API surface, never under /mcp (the agent protocol surface).
Package magus.activity.v1, defined in proto/magus/activity/v1/activity.proto. Part of the daemon API.
Methods
ListActivity
ListActivity returns a page of recent events, newest first, narrowed by filter.
POST /magus.activity.v1.ActivityService/ListActivity - unary.
Takes ListActivityRequest, returns ListActivityResponse.
GetPayload
GetPayload returns a stored request or response body by its ref (from an ActivityEvent).
POST /magus.activity.v1.ActivityService/GetPayload - unary.
Takes GetPayloadRequest, returns GetPayloadResponse.
Messages
ActivityEvent
ActivityEvent is one recorded action - the atom of the trail. The envelope (time, actor, kind, action, outcome) is common to every kind; the payload refs point into the activity blob store (fetched via GetPayload) so a large request/response body never bloats the line. For an MCP tool call: actor is the agent id, action is the tool name, request is the arguments, response is the result. For an agent command observation: actor is the host-supplied agent/session identity when available, action is the host tool name, request is the normalized invocation, and response is the guard decision. For a token lifecycle event: actor is "cli", action is "connector.create"/"connector.revoke", and the refs are empty.

string | 3 | who: an agent id, "cli", a user |

Duration | 7 | wall-clock, on call-shaped actions |
request_ref |
string | 8 | Content-addressed payload refs, provenance-prefixed (an MCP payload is "mcp |

string | 10 | opening characters of the response, for list views |

response_bytes |
int64 | 12 | |
workspace |
string | 13 | The workspace root the action pertained to; empty for a daemon-wide action not bound to one workspace (an MCP call). The trail is a single daemon-wide stream, so this disambiguates a job by its workspace rather than fragmenting the record across per-workspace directories. |
host |
string | 14 | The agent host behind the action and that host's own session id, empty when the producer could not know them. The name is an opaque label the caller supplies, not a set magus enumerates: a hook is told its host by the wrapper that ran it, because no local process can discover which agent host started it. An MCP call has no such wrapper and is attributed from its HTTP User-Agent instead, mapped into this same field so one view can group both kinds by host rather than switching on kind first. They ride the EVENT rather than the request blob, which also carries them: a 200-row feed grouped by host must not cost 200 GetPayload calls. |

ActivityQuery
ActivityQuery narrows the listing server-side. Fields AND together; repeated values within a field OR; the time window bounds it.

repeated string | 3 | restrict to these actions (e.g. tool names) |

GetPayloadRequest

ref |
string | 1 | A provenance-prefixed content ref: a short lowercase source tag followed by hex. |

TimeRange
TimeRange bounds a query to items between since and until (inclusive); either bound may be unset for an open-ended range. since doubles as a live-stream resume cursor.

Enums
Kind
Kind classifies the recorded action by its source. A reader switches on kind; new sources add a value without changing the envelope.
| Value | # | Description |
|---|---|---|
KIND_UNSPECIFIED |
0 | |
KIND_MCP_TOOL_CALL |
1 | an agent invoked an MCP tool over the daemon (emitted) |
KIND_JOB |
2 | The remaining sources share this envelope; each is emitted once its producer records into the trail, with no schema change. A reader/dashboard selects the kinds it wants (see ActivityQuery.kinds), so one stream serves the agent view, a jobs view, and a full log. a daemon background job: SCIP reindex, graph build, VCS refresh (emitted) |
KIND_CONFIG_CHANGE |
3 | reserved: magus.yaml changed on reload, or a magus config set mutation |
KIND_TOKEN_LIFECYCLE |
4 | reserved: a connector token was minted or revoked |
KIND_SANDBOX_DENIAL |
5 | reserved: a target attempted a disallowed filesystem write |
KIND_MEMORY |
6 | a console MemoryService action on the durable magus_memory files (reads audited too) |
KIND_AGENT_COMMAND |
7 | An agent host observed a shell or file-tool invocation. The request blob contains normalized host/tool/session data and the command or path; the response blob contains the guard decision. OUTCOME_OK means the observation was recorded, NOT that a pre-hooked command later succeeded. |
Outcome
Outcome is how the action ended.
| Value | # | Description |
|---|---|---|
OUTCOME_UNSPECIFIED |
0 | |
OUTCOME_OK |
