Romuald Członkowski 05424f66af feat: Session Persistence API for Zero-Downtime Deployments (v2.24.1) (#438)
* feat: Add session persistence API for zero-downtime deployments (v2.24.1)

Implements export/restore functionality for MCP sessions to support container
restarts without losing user sessions. This enables zero-downtime deployments
for multi-tenant platforms and Kubernetes/Docker environments.

New Features:
- exportSessionState() - Export active sessions to JSON
- restoreSessionState() - Restore sessions from exported data
- SessionState type - Serializable session structure
- Comprehensive test suite (22 tests, 100% passing)

Implementation Details:
- Only exports sessions with valid n8nApiUrl and n8nApiKey
- Automatically filters expired sessions (respects sessionTimeout)
- Validates context structure using existing validation
- Handles null/invalid sessions gracefully with warnings
- Enforces MAX_SESSIONS limit during restore (100 sessions)
- Dormant sessions recreate transport/server on first request

Files Modified:
- src/http-server-single-session.ts: Core export/restore logic
- src/mcp-engine.ts: Public API wrapper methods
- src/types/session-state.ts: Type definitions
- tests/: Comprehensive unit tests

Security Note:
Session data contains plaintext n8n API keys. Downstream applications
MUST encrypt session data before persisting to disk.

* feat: implement 7 critical session persistence API fixes for production readiness

This commit implements all 7 critical fixes identified in the code review
to make the session persistence API production-ready for zero-downtime
container deployments in multi-tenant environments.

Fixes implemented:
1. Made instanceId optional in SessionState interface
2. Removed redundant validation, properly using validateInstanceContext()
3. Fixed race condition in MAX_SESSIONS check using real-time count
4. Added comprehensive security logging with logSecurityEvent() helper
5. Added duplicate session ID detection during export with Set tracking
6. Added date parsing validation with isNaN checks for Invalid Date objects
7. Restructured null checks for proper TypeScript type narrowing

Changes:
- src/types/session-state.ts: Made instanceId optional
- src/http-server-single-session.ts: Implemented all validation and security fixes
- tests/unit/http-server/session-persistence.test.ts: Fixed MAX_SESSIONS test

All 13 session persistence unit tests passing.
All 9 MCP engine session persistence tests passing.
