Yansong Zhang 12f38b076a fix(api): preserve inspector error code in 404 responses
The Inspector controller previously wrapped ``NodeOutputInspectorError`` in
the generic ``NotFoundError`` (``error_code = "not_found"``), losing the
specific code the service raises (``workflow_run_not_found`` /
``published_run_inspector_not_implemented`` / ``node_not_in_workflow_run`` /
``node_output_not_declared``).

Discovered while driving the full real-user-flow E2E (both api server and
agent backend running, real /login → JWT + CSRF, real /apps POST, real
Inspector GET) — body code came back ``not_found`` instead of the specific
value the design doc §11 promises.

Fix introduces a small ``_InspectorNotFound(BaseHTTPException)`` subclass
that takes the inspector error and copies its code onto the response. The
404 status code is unchanged; only the body's ``code`` field is now
specific.

E2E now confirms:
- ``cross-tenant access blocked (404) — body: workflow_run_not_found``
- ``published-run access 404 — body code: published_run_inspector_not_implemented``

All unit tests (92) still pass; pyrefly + mypy + ruff clean.

Dify Backend API

Setup and Run

Important

In the v1.3.0 release, poetry has been replaced with uv as the package manager for Dify API backend service.

uv and pnpm are required to run the setup and development commands below.

The scripts resolve paths relative to their location, so you can run them from anywhere.

  1. Run setup (copies env files and installs dependencies).

    ./dev/setup
    
  2. Review api/.env, web/.env.local, and docker/middleware.env values (see the SECRET_KEY note below).

  3. Start middleware (PostgreSQL/Redis/Weaviate).

    ./dev/start-docker-compose
    
  4. Start backend (runs migrations first).

    ./dev/start-api
    
  5. Start Dify web service.

    ./dev/start-web
    

    ./dev/setup and ./dev/start-web install JavaScript dependencies through the repository root workspace, so you do not need a separate cd web && pnpm install step.

  6. Set up your application by visiting http://localhost:3000.

  7. Start the worker service (async and scheduler tasks, runs from api).

    ./dev/start-worker
    
  8. Optional: start Celery Beat (scheduled tasks).

    ./dev/start-beat
    

Environment notes

Important

When the frontend and backend run on different subdomains, set COOKIE_DOMAIN to the sites top-level domain (e.g., example.com). The frontend and backend must be under the same top-level domain in order to share authentication cookies.

  • Generate a SECRET_KEY in the .env file.

    bash for Linux

    sed -i "/^SECRET_KEY=/c\\SECRET_KEY=$(openssl rand -base64 42)" .env
    

    bash for Mac

    secret_key=$(openssl rand -base64 42)
    sed -i '' "/^SECRET_KEY=/c\\
    SECRET_KEY=${secret_key}" .env
    

Testing

  1. Install dependencies for both the backend and the test environment

    cd api
    uv sync --group dev
    
  2. Run the tests locally with mocked system environment variables in tool.pytest_env section in pyproject.toml, more can check Claude.md

    cd api
    uv run pytest                           # Run all tests
    uv run pytest tests/unit_tests/         # Unit tests only
    uv run pytest tests/integration_tests/  # Integration tests
    
    # Code quality
    ./dev/reformat               # Run all formatters and linters
    uv run ruff check --fix ./   # Fix linting issues
    uv run ruff format ./        # Format code
    uv run pyrefly check         # Type checking
