Can I disable blocklisting on a machine or farm-wide in flamenco?
---
_**Agent (kimi-k2.5)**_
Thought Process
The user is asking about disabling blocklisting in Flamenco. This appears to be a question about a software called Flamenco, which seems to be some kind of render farm or task management system. Let me first explore the codebase to understand what Flamenco is and how blocklisting works in it.
I should search the codebase for information about blocklisting to understand the context better.
Tool use: **task_v2**
Parameters:
```json
{
"description": "Explore Flamenco blocklisting",
"model": "accounts/fireworks/models/kimi-k2p5",
"name": "explore",
"prompt": "Search the Flamenco codebase to understand:\n1. What is blocklisting and how does it work in Flamenco?\n2. Is there a way to disable blocklisting - either per-machine or farm-wide?\n3. Look for configuration options, settings, or code related to blocklisting\n\nSearch for terms like \"blocklist\", \"block_list\", \"blacklist\", and explore the codebase structure to understand the project. Provide findings about whether blocklisting can be disabled and how.",

The exploration provides good information. Let me provide a clear answer to the user about disabling blocklisting in Flamenco.Thought Process
The user is saying that setting `blocklist_threshold: 0` doesn't prevent blocklisting. This could be a bug or the configuration might not be getting applied properly. Let me search the codebase to understand how the blocklist threshold is actually implemented and whether there's a bug or different behavior when it's set to 0.
I should search for:
1. How the blocklist_threshold is parsed and used in the code
2. Whether 0 is treated as "disabled" or if there's special handling needed
3. Any bugs or issues with the threshold configuration
Let me search the codebase for the blocklist implementation.

The workspace appears to be mostly specstory history files and doesn't contain the actual Flamenco source code. I need to search the web for more information about whether setting `blocklist_threshold: 0` actually works to disable blocklisting, or if this is a known issue.
Let me also look at the specstory history about blocklisting to see if there are any clues about this issue.Tool use: **read_file_v2** • Read file: c:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\flamenco/.specstory\history\2026-03-16_20-23Z-disabling-blocklisting-in-flamenco.md

"markdown": "Manager Configuration | Flamenco\n\n[Edit page](https://projects.blender.org/studio/flamenco/_edit/main/web/project-website/content/usage/manager-configuration/_index.md)\n\n# Manager Configuration\n\nFlamenco Manager reads its configuration from`flamenco-manager.yaml`, located next to the`flamenco-manager` executable. The previous chapters ([Shared Storage](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/shared-storage/) and [Variables](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/variables/)) also describe parts of that configuration file.\n\n## Example\n\n```\n# flamenco-manager.yaml\n\n_meta:\n version: 3\n\n# Core settings\nmanager_name: Flamenco Manager\ndatabase: flamenco-manager.sqlite\nlisten: :8080\nautodiscoverable: true\n\n# Storage\nlocal_manager_storage_path: ./flamenco-manager-storage\nshared_storage_path: /path/to/storage\nshaman:\n enabled: true\n garbageCollect:\n period: 24h\n maxAge: 744h\n\n# Timeout \u0026 Failures\ntask_timeout: 10m\nworker_timeout: 1m\nblocklist_threshold: 3\ntask_fail_after_softfail_count: 3\n\n# Variables\nvariables:\n blender:\n values:\n - platform: linux\n value: blender\n - platform: windows\n value: blender\n - platform: darwin\n value: blender\n blenderArgs:\n values:\n - platform: all\n value: -b -y\n\n# MQTT Configuration\nmqtt:\n client:\n broker: 'tcp://mqttserver.local:1883'\n username: 'username'\n password: 'your-password-here'\n topic_prefix: flamenco\n\n```\n\nThe usual way to create a configuration file is simply by starting Flamenco Manager. If there is no config file yet, it will start the setup assistant to create one. If for any reasons the setup assistant is not usable for you, you can use the above example to create`flamenco-manager.yaml` yourself.\n\n## Definitions\n\nThe configuration is stored in a [YAML](https://spacelift.io/blog/yaml#basic-yaml-syntax) file. Each attribute is defined below.\n\n### Duration Format\n\nDurations are written in [Go’s notation for durations](https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration). Examples are`1h` for 1 hour, or`1m30s` for 1 minute and 30 seconds. To avoid ambiguity, hours are the largest available unit; there are days that are not exactly`24h`.\n\n### Core Settings\n\n---\n\n`manager_name` string\n\nThe name of the Flamenco Manager.\n\n---\n\n`database` string\n\nThe file path for the SQLite database.\n\n---\n\n`database_check_period` duration format\n\nHow frequently the database is checked for internal consistency.\n\nThis check always happens at startup of Flamenco Manager. By setting this to a non-zero duration, the check is also performed while Flamenco Manager is running.\n\nIt is not typically necessary to set this; it was implemented to help find a bug, which has been fixed in Flamenco 3.6 ([#104305](https://projects.blender.org/studio/flamenco/issues/104305)). The setting may be removed in the future.\n\n---\n\n`listen` string\n\nThe IP and port (e.g.,`:8080`,`192.168.0.1:8080`, or`[::]:8080`) Flamenco Manager will listen on.\n\nThis is the only port that is needed for Flamenco Manager, and will be used for the web interface, the API, and file submission via the Shaman system.\n\n---\n\n`autodiscoverable` boolean\n\nWhether or not the manager is discoverable by workers in the same network.\n\n### Storage\n\n---\n\n`local_manager_storage_path` string\n\nThe path where the Manager stores local files (e.g., logs, last-rendered images, etc.).\n\nThese files are only necessary for the manager. Workers never need to access this directly, as the files are accessible via the web interface.\n\n---\n\n`shared_storage_path` string\n\nThe [Shared Storage](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/shared-storage/) path where files shared between Manager and Worker(s) live (e.g., rendered output files, or the .blend files of render jobs).\n\n---\n\n`shaman` map\n\nThe configuration for enabling and garbage collecting the [Shaman Storage System](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/shared-storage/shaman/).\n\nThe exact structure for`shaman` follows:\n\n```\nshaman:\n enabled: true\n garbageCollect:\n period: 24h\n maxAge: 744h\n\n```\n\n---\n\n`enabled` boolean\n\nWhether or not to use the Shaman Storage System.\n\n---\n\n`garbageCollect` map\n\nThe configuration for [garbage collection](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/shared-storage/shaman/#garbage-collection) on files in the Shaman Storage System.\n\n---\n\n`period` string in duration format\n\nThe period of time determining the frequency of garbage collection performed on file store.\n\n---\n\n`maxAge` string in duration format\n\nThe minimum lifespan of files required in order to be garbage collected.\n\n### Timeout \u0026 Failures\n\n---\n\n`task_timeout` string in duration format\n\nThe Manager will consider a Worker to be “problematic” if it hasn’t heard anything from that Worker for this amount of time. When that happens, the Worker will be shown on the Manager in`error` status.\n\n---\n\n`worker_timeout` string in duration format\n\nThe amount of time since the worker’s last sign of life (e.g., asking for a task to perform, or checking if it’s allowed to perform its current task) before getting marked “timed out” and sent to`error` status.\n\n---\n\n`blocklist_threshold` number\n\nThe number of failures allowed on a type of task per job before banning a worker from that task type on that job.\n\nFor example, when a worker fails multiple blender tasks on one job, it’s concluded that the job is too heavy for its hardware, and thus it gets blocked from doing more of those. It is then still allowed to do file management, video encoding tasks, or blender tasks on another job.\n\n---\n\n`task_fail_after_softfail_count` number\n\nThe number of workers allowed to have failed a task before hard-failing the task.\n\n### Variables\n\n---\n\n`variables` map\n\nThe [two-way variables](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/variables/multi-platform/) to be used for specific operating systems.\n\nThe structure for`variables` follows:\n\n```\nvariables:\n \u003cvariable-name\u003e:\n values:\n - platform: linux\n value: value for Linux\n - platform: windows\n value: value for Windows\n - platform: darwin\n value: value for macOS\n\n```\n\n---\n\n` ` map\n\nThe variable (e.g.,`blender`,`blenderArgs`, or`my_storage`) to be defined.\n\n---\n\n`values` array\n\nThe list of variable values with their respective platform to be used.\n\n---\n\n`platform` string\n\nThe platform for this variable value.\n\nPossible values:`linux`,`windows`,`darwin`, or`all`.\n\nAny other value used by Go’s [GOOS](https://pkg.go.dev/runtime#GOOS) constant or returned by Python’s [platform.platform()](https://docs.python.org/3/library/platform.html#platform.platform) function can be used here. Of the above values, only`all` is special as it pertains to all platforms.\n\n---\n\n`value` string\n\nThe contents for the variable, for the given platform.\n\n---\n\nFor more information, see [Variables](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/variables/).\n\n### MQTT Configuration\n\nThis section is completely optional. If you do not know what it’s for, just leave it out.\n\n---\n\n`mqtt` map\n\nThe configuration for MQTT broker and client.\n\nThe exact structure for`mqtt` follows:\n\n```\nmqtt:\n client:\n broker: ''\n username: ''\n password: ''\n topic_prefix: ''\n\n```\n\n---\n\n`client` map\n\nThe configuration for the broker and client.\n\n---\n\n`clientID` string\n\nAn identifier that each MQTT client uses to identify itself.\n\n---\n\n`broker` string\n\nThe URL for the MQTT server.\n\n---\n\n`username` string\n\nThe username of the broker/client.\n\n---\n\n`password` string\n\nThe password of the broker/client.\n\n---\n\n`topic_prefix` string\n\nThe word to prefix each topic (e.g.,`flamenco`).\n\n---\n\nFor more information about the built-in MQTT client, see [Manager Configuration: MQTT](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/manager-configuration/mqtt/).\n\n[gdoc_arrow_left_alt Two-way Variables for Multi-Platform Support](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/variables/multi-platform/) [Manager Configuration: MQTT gdoc_arrow_right_alt](https://flamenco.blender.org/usage/manager-configuration/mqtt/)",

The documentation shows that `blocklist_threshold` is a number that represents "The number of failures allowed on a type of task per job before banning a worker from that task type on that job."
It doesn't explicitly say that setting it to 0 disables blocklisting. Let me search for more information about this, possibly looking at the source code or issues.

The GitHub repo is archived and there are no blocklist-related issues. The active development has moved to Blender's own Gitea instance at projects.blender.org. Let me search for more information about the blocklist threshold behavior and whether setting it to 0 actually works.
Based on my research so far:
1. The documentation says `blocklist_threshold` is a "number" but doesn't specify that 0 disables it
2. The user says setting it to 0 doesn't prevent blocklisting
This could be:
1. A bug where 0 is not handled as a special case to disable the feature
2. The configuration isn't being reloaded properly
3. The threshold check might be doing something like `if numFailures >= threshold` where 0 would mean immediate blocking (which is the opposite of disabling)
Let me look for more specific information about this issue.

[1]\n\nIn the Manager configuration file (`flamenco-manager.yaml`), `blocklist_threshold` specifies how many task failures are allowed before a worker is added to a blocklist. The example configuration shows a default value of `3`, meaning a worker will be blocklisted after 3 failed tasks.[1]\n\nSetting `blocklist_threshold: 0` would disable the blocklisting feature entirely, preventing workers from ever being automatically blocklisted regardless of how many tasks fail.",

Interesting - the search result says "Setting `blocklist_threshold: 0` would disable the blocklisting feature entirely" but the user is saying it doesn't work. This could mean:
1. There's a bug in Flamenco
2. The configuration file wasn't properly reloaded
3. The documentation is incorrect/outdated
Let me look for more information about issues or bugs with the blocklist threshold configuration, or check if the Flamenco manager needs a restart for the configuration to take effect.
