The three templates the design was signed off against lived in a
session-scoped scratchpad and would have disappeared with the session — the one
artefact the whole conversion is measured against. They are in docs/design/ now,
with the measurements that were got wrong at least once written down beside
them, and a note that the way to check is to render and measure rather than to
read the source. That distinction already settled one disagreement: the source
said the metric grid used a 20px gap, rendered it is 14px.

The console has been unreachable over the VPN, and the cause was the readiness
probe rather than the tunnel. The gateway binds to the WireGuard hub address
alone; the probe asked 127.0.0.1, where nothing has ever listened. It could only
fail, so VPN_READY stayed false, and on that basis the application withheld the
`DNS = 10.66.0.1` line from every client config it issued. A phone then built
the tunnel, asked its normal resolver for the console hostname, got the public
address and had its connection closed — indistinguishable from "this site does
not exist", which is exactly what it looked like.
Probing over TLS on the bare address would not have worked either: the site
matches on the console's hostname, so a request without SNI is offered no
certificate. The gateway now answers a plain-HTTP health port on the hub
address, which removes TLS, SNI and name resolution from the question and
answers only what is being asked — is this gateway listening, in this network
namespace, right now. Caddy refuses to start when the certificate is unreadable,
so a health port that answers still proves the whole file loaded.
Also here, all found while looking:
- Icons pushed their label onto a second line and rendered a size larger than
asked for. Tailwind's preflight makes an svg display:block, and `.size-4` and
`.size-5` have equal specificity, so stylesheet order decided — and it emits
size-4 first. Every icon written as 16px was silently 20px. Recorded as R18.
- Four error pages printed `errors.404.hint` in place of a sentence: the lang
files give those codes a null hint and Laravel returns the key for a null line.
- The Developer role had no label in either language, so the dropdown showed
`admin_settings.role_developer`.
- The secrets area held one key, which is not worth a password gate. It now
carries the credentials that actually stop the business when they expire —
DNS, monitoring, SMTP — and the test button appears only where a checker
exists, instead of reporting on Stripe whatever was being looked at.
- The update button said nothing about when a queued run would start or where a
running one had got to; both are now shown, and a failure names its step.

Focused TDD build plan for the engine: topology decision baked in (Option 1
standalone fleet as the software model, cluster-per-datacenter as the growth
target — hosts get datacenter + nullable cluster fields, placement filters by
datacenter). Covers data model, DB-state-machine orchestrator, 15 customer steps,
new ProxmoxClient, Stripe idempotent intake, and wiring the existing admin/customer
progress views to real data via Reverb. References the state handoff for workflow.

Full project state for a fresh session: env facts, stack, docker workflow, what's
built (landing + customer portal + admin console), verification workflow (pest /
R12 puppeteer / R15 codex), hard-won gotchas, open items, and the recommended next
block (provisioning engine v1.0).
