Dfx-orbit review list fails with Candid parsing errors

Developers

Hi,

I’m experiencing Candid parsing errors when running dfx-orbit review list against my v0.6.0 Orbit station, regardless of which CLI version I use (v0.6.0 and v0.10.0)

My Setup

  • Orbit Station: g24fd-zaaaa-aaaac-qc2pq-cai

  • Station Version: 0.6.0

Issue with dfx-orbit v0.6.0 (matching versions)

$ dfx-orbit --version
dfx-orbit 0.6.0

$ dfx-orbit review list
Failed to execute command: Failed to parse candid: ...
wire_type: variant { ... }, expect_type: variant {
  Not : RequestPolicyRuleDTO;
  Quorum : record { ... };
  AllowListed;
  ...
}

Issue with dfx-orbit v0.10.0 (upgraded CLI)

After upgrading the CLI by building from source:

$ dfx-orbit --version
dfx-orbit 0.10.0

$ dfx-orbit review list
Failed to execute command: Failed to parse candid: ...
wire_type: null, expect_type: vec text, field_name: Named("tags")

Questions

  1. Is there a known compatibility issue between dfx-orbit CLI and station v0.6.0?

  2. Should matching versions (CLI v0.6.0 + UI station v0.6.0) work together?

  3. What is the recommended way to resolve this?

  4. Is there a compatibility matrix showing which CLI versions work with which station versions?

Workaround

Currently using the Orbit UI to view requests, works fine.

I’ve created this issue on github.
