TickScope

Changes

• The metrics endpoint can no longer be silenced by a stalled client. A connection that sent a partial request previously held the only HTTP worker indefinitely, and every scrape timed out until that client disconnected — with no token required, since parsing stalls before authentication. The endpoint now runs on its own socket with per-connection deadlines and recovers on its own. Still no runtime dependencies.
• Authorization: bearer <token> is now accepted alongside Bearer, as the HTTP specification requires. A scrape configured with a lowercase scheme used to fail like a mistyped token.
• Per-world entity and tile-entity totals moved to the slower scan interval (entity-types.interval-ticks). Counting tile entities walks every loaded chunk, and before Minecraft 26 counting entities walked every entity, so neither belonged on the 5-second collection cycle. mc_world_chunks and mc_world_players are unchanged and still sampled every collection.
• These three series are now omitted on Folia rather than read from the global region, which does not own the world data they walk.
• Readings the platform cannot supply are omitted instead of reported as zero. CPU load on a JVM that does not expose it no longer looks like an idle server, and player ping is published only when a player was actually measured.
• On Folia, a batch of per-player samples that finishes late is now used rather than thrown away. With several regions lagging at staggered times no batch ever finished before the next began, so ping and regional figures could stay frozen at the last success.
• Deaths cancelled by another plugin are no longer counted.
• A configuration value of the wrong type is now rejected with the setting named. port: "9200" previously bound the default port and per-world: "false" silently stayed enabled.
• /tickscope reload reports what actually happened, including when a rollback failed, and two simultaneous reloads on Folia can no longer leave an endpoint running that nothing can close.
• The entity-type series survive a reload instead of disappearing until the next scan, and /tickscope status prints a valid URL for an IPv6 bind address.
• The bundled Grafana dashboard gained a Folia regions row; its tick panels were blank on Folia, which is the one platform where those metrics do not exist.
• Release jars are now reproducible, so a download can be checked against its published checksum by rebuilding the tag.

Upgrading: two panels can look empty after this release. mc_player_ping_avg_ms and mc_player_ping_max_ms are absent while nobody is online, and the CPU ratios are absent on a JVM that cannot report them, instead of both reading zero. That is the documented "missing series" behaviour rather than a removal — add or vector(0) where a panel needs a visible zero, exactly as the entity-type series already require. Per-world entity and tile-entity totals now refresh every entity-types.interval-ticks (600 ticks) rather than every collection, so those graphs are coarser; they are absent entirely on Folia.
