What this system is

Lighthouse is a .NET-based distributed service that manages cluster bootstrapping and split-brain resolution. It provides remote command-line interaction and structured logging capabilities, running on modern .NET 7 infrastructure. The system has been modernized by removing legacy Windows service implementations and centralizing dependency management.

Removals

Removed legacy Windows Service implementation

The legacy Windows Service implementation for the Lighthouse service has been removed. This includes the \LighthouseService\ class, its associated installer, configuration files, and the \install-lighthouse.cmd\ script that used \InstallUtil\ for service management.

Behavioural changes

Lighthouse service modernized with .NET 7, Serilog, and Petabridge.Cmd

The Lighthouse service has been updated to run on .NET 7, replacing the previous .NET Core 3.1/6.0 base. This change introduces Serilog for structured, configurable logging and integrates Petabridge.Cmd for remote command-line interaction. The Dockerfiles now target Linux (x64 and ARM64) and Windows, utilizing multi-stage builds to include the Petabridge.Cmd global tool. Configuration is now managed via HOCON and environment variables, with support for Docker-based cluster bootstrapping and split-brain resolution strategies.

Release notes and build infrastructure updates for Lighthouse 1.8.0

The release notes for version 1.8.0 document that Lighthouse now runs on .NET 7.0 and uses Akka.Cluster's default split brain resolver (keep-majority). The release also enables TieredPGO and ServerGarbageCollection to reduce latency. The repository's build system has been updated to use FAKE (F\# Make) with build scripts for Windows, Linux, and PowerShell, and the solution file has been updated to target Visual Studio 15 (2017) and include the build folder. Additionally, the .gitignore file has been updated to ignore more build artifacts and tooling directories.

Dependencies

Migrate Lighthouse to .NET Core and centralize package versions

The Lighthouse service and its associated .NET Framework projects (Lighthouse.App, Lighthouse.Service) have been removed in favor of a modern .NET Core-based Lighthouse project. This change introduces a central package versioning file (Directory.Packages.props) to manage dependencies for Akka.NET, Serilog, xUnit, and other libraries, replacing the previous scattered package management approach.

How this codebase got here

This is the PUBLIC form of this artifact. Findings are listed in full, but the details of SECURITY findings — which rule fired, in which file, on which line, and how to fix it — are deliberately withheld, and any secret-scanner results are excluded entirely. Where detail is absent here it was REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION; it is not missing from the analysis. The complete artifact is available from the repository owner.

petabridge/lighthouse was measured the same way every project in this corpus was: the same rubric, at a pinned commit, with the result published in full. Point a surveyor at a repository you know and see whether you agree with it.

About this page

The score is its most recent published measurement, taken on 24 September 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
Measured at commit 33123796f0830a63b6049f4915eaec2ca0f40ab3 — the exact code this score is about.
Scored under rubric-2026.09.15 — the same rubric and the same method as every other entry in this index.
