Am I correct to interpret that Launcher does not transmit the error message as part of distributed query results? It looks like it uses this type (https://github.com/osquery/osquery-go/blob/master/plugin/distributed/distributed.go#L40-L48) which does not have the error message.

Yes that is correct
Our product pulls all messages out of the status log and aligns them with the live queries across all devices
Having them in the live query response would be great, but we need to read the status log anyway for other reasons during the LQ processing so even if we added it, it wouldn't change the code too much on our side.

Got it. Thank you.

yw, zach. If you plan on submitting a PR to improve it and want to discuss the particulars, happy to do so.

Kk will do. I'm not sure how much work it would be to expose it from there. I'll file an issue to discuss if we decide to try to tackle it. Thanks!

I’ve been meaning to revisit that after the error message got added to osquery. But it hasn’t bubbled up. Ideas welcome 🙂
