nexxo 60c501e40d Put the page in the navigation, and stop files. handing out the portal
Two faults, both mine, both reported from the live server.

The page had a route and no navigation entry. A page reachable only by typing
its URL does not exist as far as the operator is concerned, and "Betrieb →
Hostnamen und Zertifikate" was exactly as findable as I had made it: not at all.
It sits under Betrieb rather than System because what is set there decides
whether an address ANSWERS — that is operations, not configuration.

And calling files.… without a path redirected to app.… The host-bound group only
claimed /bootstrap.tar.gz and /{file}; a bare / matches neither, so the request
fell through to the host-agnostic routes and landed on the portal. Two holes,
because / and a multi-segment path miss the placeholder for different reasons,
and both are closed now.

404 rather than a redirect, and that is the point rather than a detail. The
redirect told anybody who tried the name where the portal lives and that both
sit on the same machine — the one thing every other hostname in routes/web.php
is careful not to say. An address with nothing to offer has nothing to tell
either.

2037 tests pass, assets build.

nexxo 006ce3568b Manage hostnames and watch their certificates from the console
files.clupilot.com is why this exists. DNS pointed at the right machine, the
env var was set, the release was deployed — and there was still no certificate,
because /etc/caddy/Caddyfile is maintained by hand and nobody thought of it as a
second, separate step. Nothing in the console would have said so. Three settings
looked correct and the address did not answer.

So the page holds two things side by side. The WISH — which names should be
served — and the REALITY: whether the name has a certificate and for how much
longer. The second is measured by opening a TLS connection and reading the
expiry, not by reading configuration, because the configuration is exactly what
looked right while the address was dead. verify_peer stays on: a certificate
that fails validation is not a certificate for this question, and a display that
called it valid would be the fake R19 records.

Applying goes through the existing agent, not a new channel. The console writes
a request, the path unit wakes the agent within a second, and the agent calls one
fixed command line of the root-owned helper.

What that helper is allowed to do is the careful part. It fetches the list
ITSELF rather than being handed one, and the list is HOSTNAMES, never Caddy
blocks — `php artisan clupilot:proxy-hosts` prints `<name> <purpose>` and nothing
else. Each name is matched against a strict pattern before it is used, and the
template around it lives in the helper, which the service account cannot touch.
install-agent.sh already states the principle for the sudoers grant: a grant is
only worth anything if the holder cannot change what it grants. A service account
that could write proxy configuration would have everything the proxy can do —
redirects anywhere, files from any directory.

Purpose is a column rather than a habit. A console name gets the network lock,
a public one does not, and a console name published without it looks exactly
like a working page.

Removing takes the name out of the list and NOT out of the running proxy. Two
decisions in one click, and the second one takes a site off the air.

There is deliberately no "renew" button. Caddy renews on its own at two thirds
of the lifetime; what an operator actually needs is a second attempt after an
issuance has failed, and that is a reload — which is what Apply does. Thirty days
is treated as a problem rather than a warning: at ninety days' lifetime, a
renewal should long since have run, so anything under it is not a tight
certificate but a renewal that is not happening.

The ACME contact falls back to the owner's address, because a contact nobody
reads is the step before expired customer certificates.

CONTRACT and HOST_STEP_NEEDS both move to 2, which is what tells a server
carrying the older helper to run the installer again — caught by the guard test
that compares the two halves.

2035 tests pass, assets build.

nexxo 398028a57d Rebuild Add host as a page with one job, and let downloads through the gate
The page was a wall. Six paragraphs of procedure stacked above a form, so the
thing the page actually asks for — four fields — sat underneath an essay about
what would happen afterwards. It answered everything and showed nothing.

It is now built the way the settings page is built, because that page was
rebuilt for the same reason and there is no case for a second idiom: an eyebrow,
a title, a sticky rail on the left and panels of rows on the right.

The rail carries the six steps as two-word labels rather than paragraphs. That
is what the question at this moment actually is — where am I, how much is left —
and it fits in 232 pixels. The numbers carry the state; a tick beside them would
be a second sign for one statement, and a number can be counted.

What a step MEANS now appears in the row where it is due, not six times in
advance. The two provider steps get a panel of their own above the form, because
they have to be done before you save: the one-time code starts expiring the
moment you do. Everything after the form waits until there is something to say.

After saving the command becomes the page. Full width, its own framed block with
the warning in the header strip rather than floating above, and the two
remaining steps below it as ordinary rows.

Two token bugs went with it. `bg-canvas` does not exist — it was a class that
compiled to nothing, which is part of why the block looked wrong. And
`text-accent` on white is 2.9:1; the config says in as many words to use
accent-text for anything read, so the current step number does.

Also fixed, and it would have broken every takeover in production: PublicSiteGate
is appended to the whole web group, so while the site is hidden a server in a
rescue system fetching the archive would have received the 503 placeholder and
piped it into tar. The operator would have seen an unpack error on a machine
only reachable through the provider's console, with nothing pointing at a switch
in the admin area — and they are by definition neither on a management network
nor signed in, since leaving that state is the whole point. Exempted by ROUTE
NAME, not by hostname: the docblock rightly warns that exempting by host means
trusting a header the caller picks, but that warning is about the entire portal.
Behind these two routes are documents that are public anyway and an archive that
404s without a valid one-time code.

2026 tests pass, assets build.

nexxo 447d6fe0f3 Merge main into the host-takeover branch
One real conflict, in SyncStripeCatalogue::handle(), and both sides were right.

Main's parallel work resolves the adoption singletons and takes "before" counts
so a run can tell created from adopted. The operating-mode work refuses a
catalogue whose stored objects belong to the other mode, and records which mode
the catalogue now belongs to.

Kept both, with the mode guard first. It REFUSES, so it must not run behind
anything that has already built state; the counters only need to be in place
before the create loop, and they still are. Reversing that order would have the
command resolve singletons and take counts on a catalogue it is about to reject.

2017 tests pass.

nexxo 2194ab8079 Put the instructions where somebody reads them before they start
The previous commit shipped the guide AFTER the host was created. Its first two
steps happen at the provider — order the machine, boot the rescue system — and
whoever reads them there has the one-time code already in the clipboard with its
24-hour window running. The instructions were correct and in the wrong place,
which is its own kind of wrong.

Six steps now, not three, and the two provider ones are named rather than
assumed. They are marked "first" so the list does not read as something you can
start at the top of and work down: step 2 is half an hour of waiting, and doing
it inside a running code is exactly the mistake the page should prevent.

All six are visible the whole time, including the done ones and the ones still
to come. A guide that shows only the current step cannot answer "how much is
left", which is the question somebody has while a server they are paying for
sits in a rescue system.

It is on the hosts list too, collapsed. Somebody standing there may not have
ordered the machine yet — and that is step 1. Requiring them to click "add host"
to find out what the procedure is puts the answer behind the action it describes.

One component, two places, so the archive address in the instructions is the same
string the command line will carry. Two copies of that would drift, and the
difference would surface on a server that has already been paid for.

The step-4 command box moved into the guide rather than sitting beside it, so
after creating a host the whole procedure stays on screen. Somebody stuck at
step 5 should not be looking at a page that has become a single box.

1991 tests pass.

nexxo 903ebdd2b2 Give the operator one line to copy and three steps around it
The console could describe a takeover it had no way to start. This is the
vertical slice that closes that: a one-time code, the archive the rescue system
fetches, and the page that says what to do with both.

The command carries EVERYTHING the script needs before the tunnel exists,
because there is nothing to fetch — that is the whole point of spec §5. Which
means CluPilot generates the WireGuard keypair and admits the peer at the hub
before the machine has ever booted, and hands the private half over in the line.
It is worthless within minutes: task 9 of the script replaces it with one
generated on the machine.

Shown exactly once. The database holds only the code's hash and never the
private key, so leaving the page does not bring it back — it mints a new code,
which invalidates the old one. That is deliberate: a glance at somebody's screen
should be worth nothing an hour later.

Which is also why save() no longer redirects. Sending the operator to the host
detail page sends them away from the only value they need, and an existing test
asserted that redirect — it now asserts the opposite, with the reason written
next to it.

SHA-256 rather than bcrypt for the code, and the reason is not speed. Both
endpoints have to FIND the host by the code; with bcrypt that means trying every
row. The code is 32 characters of CSPRNG output, so it has the entropy that
stretching exists to manufacture.

resolve() and claim() are separate because progress reports arrive BEFORE
registration. If reporting consumed the code, a host could never register after
its first message.

The archive URL is always the public hostname. The console runs under admin.…,
but this line executes on a machine that must not reach the admin area — it is
locked down for exactly that reason — so route() from the console would emit a
hostname that 404s on a server only reachable through the provider's console.

The page warns about missing tunnel settings BEFORE the host is created, not
after. An empty hub key produces a line that looks clean, copies fine, runs, and
ends in a tunnel that never handshakes — discovered on the machine, after
somebody has already paid for it.

The three steps lead with the rescue system, because that is the one nobody
knows by heart, and it says enabling is not the same as booting into it — the
script refuses a running production machine, which is what a half-done switch
looks like from the inside.

1986 tests pass.

nexxo 5883989552 Give settings the shape a settings page actually has
Four attempts, and this is what was wrong with the last one: full-width
panels stacked down the page, each carrying its own title INSIDE it. Every
group had two frames — the title bar and the border — so the page read as
a column of long boxes with nothing saying where one topic ended and the
next began, and a phone number got a field a thousand pixels wide.

The shape now:

- **A section list on the left**, sticky, so the sections stay reachable
  however far a form runs. Below `lg` it becomes a scrolling strip of
  chips, because a vertical list on a telephone is four rows of nothing.
  Under it, who is signed in — on a shared office machine that is a real
  question, and a settings page is where it gets asked.
- **A content column of 820px**, not the whole 1240 shell.
- **The heading OUTSIDE the card it belongs to.** A section is a heading, a
  sentence, and then a card of rows. That single move is what stops them
  reading as boxes: the border now frames the fields, not the topic.
- **What cannot be undone is last, in a card whose border says so** — the
  deletion deadlines and the close button together, at the foot of the
  contract section, in danger colours.

The rows are unchanged (label left, control right) and so is every binding;
what changed is the frame around them.

nexxo 880b5f1998 Merge main into the operating-mode branch
Three real conflicts, and one file that did not conflict and mattered more.

Overview::notices(): both sides added notices. Kept all of them, and pointed
main's mail check at MailboxTransport::NON_DELIVERING — its own comment already
named the constant while the code carried a copy of the list.

billing.blade.php: main wrapped the page in a contract branch. The "payment is
not set up" error moved OUTSIDE it, because the customer most likely to meet
that message is the one buying for the first time, who has no contract yet and
would never have seen it from inside the @else.

ConsoleReportsRealDataTest: kept both sides rather than choosing. The renamed
test and its docblock explain why admin.systems_ok can no longer be asserted on
a bare install; main's mail pin still keeps "clean" clean in the mail
dimension. Picking one would have quietly weakened the other's claim.

HostStepsTest: git combined main's config()->set('provisioning.dns.zone',
'clupilot.com') with this branch's assertion on clupilot.cloud, and produced a
test that contradicted itself with no marker. Main's approach is the better one
— it pins the zone in the test and asserts the SHAPE of the name rather than
this box's domain — so its assertion stands.

HttpStripeClient merged silently and correctly: secret() still throws,
isConfigured() still reads the vault directly. Had it taken main's
filled($this->secret()), six callers that ask in order NOT to get an exception
would have become exception throwers, and the suite would have stayed green.
CheckoutWithoutStripeKeyTest is the lock that would have caught it.

StripeIdempotencyKeyTest (new on main) leaned on the environment fallback for
stripe.secret. That entry is strict now — no fallback in either direction, so
the .env cannot be a back door for a live key in test mode. It stores a real
vault row instead.

1966 tests pass.

nexxo 2a97d76b2d Rebuild the settings page out of panels and rows
**The withdrawal was invisible in two different ways.** It rendered only
while the fourteen days were still running, so the moment they expired the
whole block vanished — indistinguishable from a feature nobody built. And
the account it was looked for on has no contract at all: no package, no
subscription, nothing to withdraw from, so there was never anything for it
to be about.

It is now a row for every CONSUMER who has a contract, open or not: while
it runs, the deadline and the button; afterwards, the sentence saying why
it is over. A business never sees it — WithdrawalRight answers that, and
Settings::withdraw() refuses them again on the server. And an account with
no package says so and offers the packages, instead of a dead sentence in
a box.

**The page is built out of two pieces now.** x-ui.panel is a group: a card
with a header that names it. x-ui.row is a setting inside it: what it is
on the left, the control on the right, dividers between rows. That is the
shape every settings page worth copying uses, and it is the shape that
uses the width — a 280px label column with the control beside it fills the
line, where a stack of full-width inputs leaves two thirds of it empty and
a grid of cards of different heights walks down the screen as a staircase.

All four tabs are rebuilt on it, so the page reads as one designed thing
rather than four pages that happen to share a tab bar. Below `sm` the rows
stack, because on a telephone a label belongs above its field.

nexxo 786318b6d4 Never tell anyone to delete a catalogue their contracts bill on
The refusal added in the previous commit had a state it read wrongly, and
the wrong reading was destructive.

record() sat at the END of handle() and in no try/finally, while
createProduct() and ensure() throw uncaught. A run that died after the
first object left hasStoredObjects() true and recorded() null. The same
state arises with no failure at all: CheckoutController → PlanPrices::
ensure() and BookAddon → SyncStripeAddonItems → AddonPrices::ensure()
mint missing prices and never call record().

In that state the next run — in the SAME mode — refused with the foreign
account message and its "Clear plan_families.stripe_product_id,
plan_prices.stripe_price_id and the … registers first", and
billing.catalogue_synced blocked with the same text. The objects were
from the account in force. The right move was to resume, which is what
the idempotency keys exist for; instead an operator was handed a delete
instruction for a catalogue live contracts are billed on.

Two changes:

  1. record() moves ahead of the creation loop, right behind the refusal.
     There it is already proved that either nothing is stored or what is
     stored belongs to the active account, so the moment carries the
     claim just as well — and a run that dies part-way can no longer
     leave a state that contradicts itself.
  2. "Origin never recorded" gets its own sentence and its own cure,
     separate from "established: other account".
     StripeCatalogueMode::matchesActiveMode() becomes
     belongsToAnotherMode(), which is only true where the other account
     is fact. The check still blocks — the origin cannot be proved — but
     it says "run the sync again", and it names no register to empty.

Red first:

  ⨯ it takes up a catalogue whose origin was never written down
      Failed asserting that 1 matches expected 0.
  ⨯ it leaves no half-built catalogue that contradicts itself when a run dies
      Failed asserting that null is identical to an object of class "App\Support\OperatingMode".
  ⨯ it tells an unrecorded origin apart from a foreign account

The two states are held apart by assertion, not by wording: only the
foreign-account sentence may name stripe_plan_prices, and the unrecorded
one must name stripe:sync-catalogue instead. The existing foreign-account
test keeps its teeth.

Full suite: 1817 passed, 6366 assertions.

nexxo 18193a731d Stop asking for a signature the law does not want, and lay out the tab
**The owner is right about the agreement.** Art. 28 wants a CONTRACT, not
a ceremony — and a contract is concluded by incorporating the agreement
into the terms the customer accepts at checkout, which is exactly how
every hoster they have bought from does it. Nothing in the regulation asks
for a second, separate click. What it does ask is that the agreement is in
writing (electronic form included, Art. 28(9)), that it is the version in
force, and that the customer can obtain it.

So: the terms now say the agreement is part of the contract and needs no
separate signing, and name where it is. The card states that rather than
flagging the customer as outstanding — the warning chip is gone. The
button stays, reworded to "Zusätzlich bestätigen": a practice or a firm
that gets audited often wants an explicit record, and it costs a click.
The console's counter says how many confirmed rather than how many are
"open", because none of them are.

**The contract tab was a staircase** — a short card, a wide one spanning
both columns, then a short one again. It is one column of full-width
sections now, each with the same shape: a header row carrying the state
and its action, then the body. Nothing tracks sideways any more.

The package section states its own state in the header instead of a
paragraph in the body, the withdrawal sits under it as a row rather than a
second card, and the agreement's four files each have a button — reading
and keeping, agreement and measures, which the single "Herunterladen"
could not express.

Also: the generated version no longer carries "Aus dem Repository erzeugt
(clupilot:publish-dpa)" in the console's list. That is the command line,
not information.

nexxo 26cf1a72a0 Remember which Stripe account the catalogue was built in
The mode switches the credentials. It does not switch what was made from
them: a Price id and a Product id belong to the account that issued them,
and test and live are two accounts. Every credential got two slots on this
branch; the ids derived from them sit in single-valued columns.

So the planned sequence of this installation ended in the exact false
green this page exists to rule out — sync in test, store the live key,
switch, and billing.catalogue_synced went on reporting satisfied because
it only asked whether the column was filled. "Bereit für Livebetrieb",
and the first real order got "No such price".

Detection, not repair. Stripe does not put the account in the id —
prod_… and price_… look the same in both, only KEYS carry _test_/_live_
— so the origin cannot be read back out of a stored id, and asking
Stripe is out: this page reaches nothing over the network on a page load.
What is left is to write it down at sync time, which is what
App\Support\StripeCatalogueMode does.

One setting for the whole catalogue is only honest because
stripe:sync-catalogue now REFUSES a run into a catalogue that belongs to
the other account. Without that, the run would skip every row that already
carries an id, answer "already in step", and record an account it never
touched — the same lie one level down. The registers count as stored
objects too: inStep() takes a registered row as proof on its own for the
reverse-charge half.

The `breaks` sentence says what happens (checkout fails, no order) and
what actually helps, including the awkward half: re-running the sync is
not enough, the pointers and both registers have to be cleared first.

The slot migration backfills the one case it can prove: whatever is at
Stripe was made with the one key this installation has ever stored, so it
belongs to the account that key opens. Otherwise a long-synced catalogue
would read as "origin unknown" and the page would demand a re-sync nobody
needs.

Red first:

  ⨯ it does not call the catalogue synced when its ids belong to the other account
  ⨯ it says the sale is refused and a fresh sync is needed, not that a column is empty
  ⨯ it records the mode its objects were created in
  ⨯ it refuses to work into a catalogue that belongs to the other account
  ⨯ it syncs into the new account once the stale ids are cleared

Full suite: 1814 passed, 6357 assertions.

nexxo d04ea712c7 Write the processing agreement and its annex, and let it be downloaded
The mechanism shipped without a document. Both are here now, generated
from this repository rather than uploaded — so the company is named from
CompanyProfile exactly as the invoices name it, the sub-processor list is
the three places customer data really leaves this application, and the
deletion deadlines are read off the commands that enforce them. A wording
change is a diff somebody can review, not a file that appears.

`clupilot:publish-dpa 1.0` renders both to PDF (TCPDF, the engine the
invoices already use), stores them on the private disk and puts them in
force; `--draft` stops short of that. The console's upload form is
untouched: a lawyer's revision arrives as a PDF and becomes a version like
any other.

**The annex says what this installation does, not what it would like to.**
Every measure in it was checked against the code first — the isolation is
one VM per customer because that is what provisioning builds, the backup
is a daily snapshot job at 02:00 because that is what RegisterBackup
creates, the deletion deadlines are the two prune commands. Claims the
system does not currently keep are NOT in the document, and they are named
in the handover instead. A TOM that promises more than the machine does is
the document an auditor reads before looking.

**Downloading** now carries the version in the filename —
CluPilot-AV-Vertrag-1.0.pdf — so "which fassung did I agree to" is
answerable from a downloads folder months later without opening anything.
Both sides get the button; inline stays the default, because a contract is
read before it is filed.

Placeholder register data is left off the document rather than printed: a
"FN 000000a" on a contract looks like a real number and is not one.

Also: the wordmark scan tripped on a paragraph whose first word is the
company name, for the second time. It now looks for the name as the whole
CONTENT of an element, which is what a lockup is, rather than for the name
after a tag, which is also how a sentence starts.

nexxo 823eeaf413 Refuse a key that does not belong to the slot it sits in
put('stripe.secret', 'sk_live_REALMONEY') in test mode was accepted,
get() handed it out, billing.stripe_secret reported satisfied, and the
badge above it said "Testbetrieb". The strict rule closed the automatic
route into that state (no fallback); the typed one stayed open.

The prefix decides it without touching the network, and that rule now
lives in ONE place — OperatingMode::ofStripeKey() — called by the three
that were answering it separately: the slot migration (unchanged verdict,
`?? Live` for a value it cannot place), StripeCheck's `live` flag
(unchanged verdict, null stays false), and the readiness check, which
never asked at all. A key it cannot place is not reported as a
contradiction: this check only says what it can prove.

The two directions get their own `breaks` sentence, because the
consequences are opposite — real money moving while the console says
test, versus no money moving while the order looks paid.

The "Prüfen" button no longer contradicts the check either: the page
rendered only ok/reason, so a live key in the test slot answered
"Geprüft: in Ordnung". It now names the account the key belongs to.

Red first:

  ⨯ it refuses a live key sitting in the test slot
  ⨯ it refuses a test key sitting in the live slot
  ⨯ it says what the wrong key does, not that a field is empty

nexxo 5094f70c19 Say which slot the value in force is really coming from
Mode test, dns.token only in the :live slot, HETZNER_DNS_TOKEN also in the
.env — the state this installation is in the moment the migration runs:

  get()      -> "live-token-value"   (the stored live row is in force)
  source()   -> "environment"        -> card reads "Aus der Serverdatei"
  outline()  -> null                 -> no "Hinterlegt" block at all

So the console sent an operator to the .env to rotate a token that the
database supplies, where the edit would have had no effect. R19's dummy,
literally: a display that reads like an answer, is wrong, and stops the
next person looking.

source(), outline() and updatedAt() now ask the same one place get() does
(inForce()/fallback()), and the answer gets a THIRD value, 'stored_live'.
Not 'stored': that shows the Vergessen button, which would then have
pointed at the empty test slot. Strict entries (Stripe) still have no
fallback in either direction — pinned by its own test.

Red first (before the vault changed):

  ⨯ it names the live slot as the source when it is the one in force
    -'stored_live'
    +'environment'
  ⨯ it shows the outline and the date of the value that is actually in force

Two existing expectations moved from 'none' to 'stored_live' with the
reason written beside them: 'none' meant "nichts hinterlegt" about a
credential that was in use.

nexxo 955f1b874f Deliver the processing agreement, and hold the proof it was accepted
Art. 28(3) GDPR wants a contract wherever personal data is processed on
somebody else's behalf, which is the whole of what this product does. "In
writing" there includes electronic form (Art. 28(9)), so a document the
customer can read plus a recorded acceptance is enough — no signature on
paper. The website already promises "AV-Vertrag inklusive", which means it
has to be obtainable without asking us for it. It was not obtainable at
all.

**The text is never this application's.** An operator uploads the document
their lawyer wrote, names the version, and publishes it; the measures ride
along as a second file, because they are an annex to the agreement and
"which measures applied when this customer accepted" has to have one
answer. Inventing the text here would have been worse than having none.

**Uploading and publishing are two acts.** Acceptance is per version, so
publishing leaves every customer who accepted the previous one outstanding
again — correct, and far too expensive to trigger by dropping a file on a
form. It goes through a confirmation modal that says exactly that (R23).

**The customer's side** is a card in the contract tab: read the agreement,
read the measures, one press to conclude it. What that press records is
what makes it evidence rather than a flag — the version, the moment, the
address it came from, and the login that pressed. Pressing twice is one
agreement (unique index, not a check somebody can forget), and a
superseded acceptance is kept rather than overwritten: it was true when it
was made, and the history is the point.

Nothing renders until a version is in force. A card offering an agreement
that does not exist is worse than the silence.

The files live on the private disk and are served through routes that
check who is asking — an agreement is not a public asset, and a guessable
URL to one would be a list of who our customers are. The customer route
takes no version parameter: which document applies is ours to say.

`dpa.manage` is its own capability on the OPERATOR guard. Whoever keeps
the platform running does not thereby decide what every customer is asked
to agree to — and a capability written under `web` since the 2026-07-29
move lands in a guard nothing authenticates against, which is how this one
first shipped answering 403 to a role that visibly had it.

nexxo 1056dddc62 Take the address by field, fix the customer type, ask why they leave
**The billing address was one textarea**, so what landed in it was
whatever somebody typed: a postcode on the street line, a city with no
postcode, no country at all. It is four fields now — street, postcode,
town, country — in the customer's settings and in the console's customer
editor, which had its own free-text copy of the same field and would have
had an operator's correction silently reverted the next time the customer
saved.

`customers.billing_address` is neither dropped nor parsed: guessing which
line of an existing block is the street would put a postcode where a
street belongs on a document nobody can correct afterwards. It becomes the
COMPOSED form, rewritten from the fields on every save, so IssueInvoice
and everything else that reads it keep working, and a record nobody has
re-saved keeps the block it always had.

**The customer type is fixed once it is on record.** It decides the
fourteen-day right of withdrawal, and a business able to set itself to
"Privatperson" on this page is a business able to withdraw from a contract
it may not withdraw from. Registration asks the question; this page
reports the answer, and saveProfile refuses to answer it a second time —
in the component, not by hiding a radio, because a form that hides a
control has never stopped anybody who can post to /livewire/update. A
record created before the question existed may still be given one, once.

The panel is a fact rather than a form now, which is also what was odd
about it, and the sentence about who has the right of withdrawal is gone.

**Cancelling asks why.** A reason from a fixed list, required, with a note
beside it that "Sonstiges" cannot go without — the one fact worth having
about a departure, asked at the only moment the customer is looking at the
question. It lands on the contract (`cancel_reason`, `cancel_reason_note`).

And where the fourteen days are still running, the dialogue offers the
WITHDRAWAL as a way out of itself rather than as one more reason inside
it: withdrawing ends the service the same day and sends the whole amount
back, cancelling keeps the term that was paid for, and somebody entitled
to the first should not lose it by taking the second unasked. A business
is never offered it — WithdrawalRight answers that, not the template.

nexxo 1d4e98eb06 Rebuild the customer's settings page as four tabs
It was one column 768 pixels wide inside a 1240-pixel shell — a third of
the window empty beside it — holding everything a customer might ever
change: the company address, their password, two-factor, the devices they
are signed in on, the branding of their cloud, the contract, and the
button that closes the account. Two thousand pixels of scroll, and the way
to a particular thing was knowing how far down it lived.

Four tabs, by what somebody came to do: their details, security, the
appearance of their cloud, the contract. The same tab bar the console
uses, so one vocabulary holds on both sides of the login, and the choice
lives in the query string — `#[Url(history: true)]`, no `except`, so the
parameter is there from the first render and a link to this page can name
the part it means. An unknown tab out of the address falls back to the
first rather than rendering a settings page with no section on it.

The width is used now. Inside a tab the short cards sit side by side
instead of each taking a full row to hold three lines: the customer type
beside the company form (it is one question, and beside the VAT field it
was mistaken for it), the password beside two-factor, the logo beside the
colours, the contract beside the closing of the account.

Also: the subtitle listed the old sections by name.

nexxo 8479fc30f8 Fix the checkout link, and stop the switch moving under the cursor
**Every package button led to "Dieses Paket steht nicht (mehr) zum
Verkauf".** The link was built as route() plus "?term=" + term — but both
are QUERY parameters on this route, so route() had already opened the
query string and the result was `?plan=team?term=monthly`. The package
arrived as the whole string "team?term=monthly", matched nothing in the
catalogue, and the page said so politely while giving no hint why. The
address now comes from route() in one piece with a placeholder swapped
into it, and a test asserts every checkout link on the page contains
exactly one question mark.

**The saving moved the buttons it belonged to.** It hung under the switch
and was hidden on the yearly view, so choosing a term shifted the very
control that chooses it. It sits above now and never disappears: one line,
two wordings — an offer while it is an offer, a statement once it is
taken. Same on the public sheet, where its vanishing re-centred the row.

nexxo ff92466b47 Give the order a checkout page, and stop hiding what a year costs
**There was no checkout page.** The package list posted straight to
Stripe, so the last thing a customer saw in this product's design was a
grid of cards and the next was somebody else's form asking for a card
number. What they were buying, what it costs in total, what happens
afterwards and what they were agreeing to were never stated in one place.

App\Livewire\Checkout is that place: the package and its figures on the
left, a sticky summary on the right — net, the saving where there is one,
the setup fee, the tax, what is due today, and what will be charged after
it. Every figure comes from the catalogue, TaxTreatment and SetupFee, the
same three the checkout itself reads; nothing is recomputed, because a
summary that works out its own total is a second answer waiting to
disagree with the one Stripe is handed.

**The terms acceptance moved to where the money is spent.** It sat at the
top of the package list as a condition of LOOKING at prices, with every
button dead beneath it. It is a condition of buying, so it is now at the
foot of the summary, directly above the button — after the total, which is
the order those three things are read in. The package list has no form on
it at all now; its buttons are links.

**The page used the left half of a 1240px shell.** A 68-character title, a
switch under it and an 80-character footnote, beside a grid that used the
whole width. Now: a header band with the name left and the term switch
right, where a control belongs, and a closing band of three columns
instead of a paragraph trailing off.

**The yearly view showed the monthly equivalent as its headline**, so on a
package with no free months the big figure did not move at all when the
switch was thrown — the page looked like it had ignored the click. The
headline is the price of the term in the unit it is charged in; what a
year works out to per month is said underneath. Same on the public sheet.

**The switch was unreadable.** `text-on-ink` is not in this palette — the
ink pairing is bg-ink/text-bg, as x-ui.button has always had it — so the
label kept its inherited grey on a near-black pill. And its shell was
rounded-lg with rounded-md options inside: two radius scales, one of them
Tailwind's untokenised 6px. One scale now, nested.

**The mails drew an empty orange tile.** The mark's ascent lives in an SVG
the site loads and a mail cannot — Gmail strips inline SVG, Outlook renders
with Word, and this layout carries no image by design. The shape is drawn
with a character every mail font has, white on the accent tile, with the
whole wordmark beside it.

nexxo e83b17ec37 Put every missing field on one page before a customer pays
Admin\Readiness renders App\Support\Readiness::byGroup() end to end: state,
label, breaks sentence and a fix link for every check, a button on the four
that have to ask a real service (DnsTokenCheck, WireguardEndpointCheck,
VmTemplateCheck, StripeCheck) and only ever run on demand, and one headline
line — ready for the operator's current mode, or how many blocking items are
still open. Wired into the nav and into Overview's own notice list beside the
same gate as Admin\Integrations, since both halves it configures come back
together on this page.

Fixed two check keys the guard test caught for real: onboarding.ssh_key and
delivery.inbound_password did not textually contain the vault key they check
(ssh.private_key, inbound_mail.password), which is exactly the kind of silent
gap this whole task exists to catch. Renamed to onboarding.ssh_private_key
and delivery.inbound_mail_password, with the two existing test files that
referenced the old keys updated to match.

Also fixed the guard test's own assertion: Pest's toContain() is variadic, so
a second string argument is a second required substring, not a failure
message (the same trap tests/Feature/ModalHeightTest.php already documents
about itself) — it failed on every entry, including ones already covered.
Replaced with str_contains()+toBeTrue(), which keeps the check and the
message both.

Two pre-existing Overview tests assumed a bare install has nothing to report;
it now correctly always starts with a readiness gap, so both were narrowed to
what they actually test — no invented data, no invented incident.

nexxo b32c6fc33f Sell the year as well as the month, and say what it saves
Both prices have existed since the catalogue did — one `plan_prices` row
per term, each with its own Stripe Price, and the checkout has taken a
`term` all along. Nothing ever sent one. The shop showed the monthly
figure, the order page posted no term, and the yearly Price sat there
being paid for by nobody.

**The console asks for free months, not a second price.** It used to take
the yearly TOTAL as its own free-form figure, so nothing in the system
knew WHY 588 belonged to a package costing 49 a month — and no page could
say "zwei Monate gratis" without a person working it out again and writing
it somewhere it would then drift. Now: the monthly price and how many of
the twelve months are free. The total is derived from the two
(PlanVersions::yearlyCents), previewed live on the form, and written to
the catalogue from the same arithmetic.

`free_months` sits on the VERSION, beside the capabilities publication
freezes, because that is what it is — part of the terms a customer bought.
The migration reads it back out of the prices that already exist rather
than defaulting to nought: an installation selling twelve-for-ten must not
lose that on a deploy. Only an exact division counts; a hand-negotiated
yearly figure keeps its amount and simply goes unexplained.

**The customer chooses.** A switch on the order page and on the public
sheet, both figures rendered and one shown, so switching costs no request.
The headline stays "per month" in either term — a yearly total as one big
number reads as five times dearer at a glance — with the amount actually
taken, the net figure, the months free and what twelve monthly payments
would have cost underneath. The form posts the term the customer was
looking at, and the checkout picks that term's Stripe Price.

The billing card now says which term is running. It states a monthly
figure whatever the term, so a yearly customer was reading a number that
never appears on a statement.

Also: **a Blade comment must never spell a directive.** Blade compiles
what is inside `{{-- --}}` too — the comment is stripped from the output,
but its directives are compiled on the way there. A comment explaining why
the parenthesised php directive had been avoided produced exactly the open
PHP tag it warned about, and the rest of the file was swallowed as PHP
source: no exception, no warning, the page one block short. That is how
the term switch vanished after being written. BladeCommentsTest scans for
the forms that open a tag.

Names which of the two slots a card actually reads and writes right now, at
the card an operator types into (not only the page-top badge) — save() and
render() resolve without a mode argument, so the card looked identical in
both modes while quietly acting on whichever slot was active. Also adds the
ConfirmSwitchMode coverage IntegrationsPageTest already carries for
ConfirmSaveSecret/ConfirmForgetSecret: a modal is reachable without the
page's route middleware, and reading the code is not the same as testing it.

nexxo fed4acf31c Accept terms instead of a start date, and fix the sender no server accepts
**The test mail was rejected: "553 5.7.1 Sender address rejected: not
owned by user no-reply@…".** Every purpose mailbox here has its own SMTP
account, and a mail server lets an account send only from the address it
owns. Mail::to() hands back a pending mail bound to the DEFAULT mailer and
sendNow() then ignores the mailer the mailable asked for, so a mail
addressed support@ went out over the no-reply@ login. It sends through the
mailable's own mailer now, and the cloud-ready preview — the one mailable
with no mailbox at all — takes the provisioning mailbox like the real
notification does.

Writing the test for that found the same bug in production code:
**InvoiceMail and OrderConfirmationMail set their From to billing@ and
never named a mailer**, so both went out over mail.default's no-reply@
login. On this installation no customer had ever received an invoice mail
or an order confirmation; they rendered perfectly, queued without
complaint and were refused at the door. MailSenderOwnershipTest now scans
for the mismatch: a mail that takes a mailbox From must use that
mailbox's mailer.

**The box on the order page accepts the terms now**, not an immediate
start. It used to carry the whole FAGG §16 sentence, which read like a
choice between "now" and "in fourteen days" — and there is no second
option. The terms are what regulate the sale, so they had to exist:
resources/views/legal/terms.blade.php replaces the placeholder with
fourteen sections written from what this software actually does — the
delivery, the capacity queue, the full refund on withdrawal, the
cancellation at period end, the deletion deadlines. The company data
comes from CompanyProfile, so the page and the invoices cannot drift. No
availability figure and no liability cap has been invented.

No order goes through without it: the button is unusable until the box is
ticked and says why, and CheckoutController still refuses server-side —
the browser half refuses nothing. The request field is `terms_accepted`;
the Stripe metadata key stays `immediate_start`, because a session opened
before a deploy is paid after it and the webhook would find nothing under
a new name.

**"Wird der Account nach fünf Tagen gelöscht?"** Only an unconfirmed one.
That was the whole of what we said, so the answer looked like yes. The
second rule now exists and is stated: PruneDormantAccounts removes a
confirmed account after a year when it never had a package — no customer
record at all, which is where every order, contract and seven-year invoice
hangs. A fortnight's notice goes out first, once, and `dormant_warned_at`
is what permits the deletion: an account whose warning never went out is
never removed. Signing in resets the clock, measured off the device rows
because users has no last_login_at.

Both deadlines are said in the portal settings, on the verification page,
and in the terms — each reading the number off the command that enforces
it.

Also: the wordmark scan matched any element whose text merely BEGINS with
the company name, which a paragraph of terms does. It looks for the lockup
form now (no whitespace after the tag), which is what it was always about.
The seven checkout tests in the parallel session's files were posting the
old field name and now post the new one.

nexxo c354ad1463 Make mails readable on a phone, and let an operator look at one
Three things the owner reported, and one sentence that promised something
this product does not do.

**The mails had a fixed width.** components/mail/layout.blade.php set
width="600" and width:600px, so every phone showed a 600px canvas in a
390px window and one had to scroll sideways to read a sentence. Now the
table is width="100%" with max-width:600px — fluid, with 600 as a ceiling
rather than a floor. A mail cannot fix this with a media query (Outlook
renders with Word and drops <style> blocks), which is why the whole file
is inline attributes and why the shrinking has to be built in. Side
padding went 40px -> 24px in the layout and in all nine mail views:
40 each side leaves 278px of a 390px screen to read in.

**There was no way to look at a mail.** An invoice mail needs an invoice,
a maintenance announcement needs a window, and "register an account to
see whether the confirmation reads well" is not a workflow — which is how
the fixed width survived for months. App\Services\Mail\MailPreviews
builds all nine from sample data, every record with make() and never
create(), so a preview leaves no invoice, order or window behind and
draws no number from a series. Two ways to see one: in a tab as the
document itself, or sent to the signed-in operator's own address. There
is no recipient field — that would be a form for mailing strangers.

sendNow(), not send(): every mailable here implements ShouldQueue, and
send() defers to the queue for those, which would have put a failure in a
worker's log while the button reported success to somebody waiting for
the mail. The test caught that.

**The booking page had no shell.** Order declared layouts.portal — the
bare shell the sign-in pages use, no navigation and no padding — so the
page sat flush against the top and bottom of the window with no way back
to anything. layouts.portal-app, like every other portal page.

**The consent box said something untrue.** Its refusal read "otherwise we
can only build your cloud once the withdrawal period has ended", which
describes a path that does not exist: nothing here delivers fourteen days
later, and an unticked box simply means no order. Said plainly now, and
said on the page before somebody runs into the refusal.

Also: GrantedPlanPortalTest asserted assertDontSee('179'), which matches
any id containing those digits — and ids climb through a suite run
because a rolled-back transaction does not reset an auto-increment
counter. It passed alone and failed in company. Asserts on '179,00' now,
which is what a leaked price would actually look like.

tests / pest (push) Failing after 8m12s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 20s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Two pages said opposite things about one account, straight after
registering: the dashboard said "noch keine Instanz", and Paket & Addons
said "AKTUELLES PAKET Start — Status Aktiv". The dashboard was right. The
package page fell back to `$instance?->plan ?? 'start'` and rendered that
fallback as a contract the customer had entered into, complete with a status
of Aktiv, on the one page somebody opens to find out what they pay.

The contract is resolved from the CUSTOMER now, not from the instance — a
paid order parked for want of a machine has a subscription and no instance
yet, and asking the instance would tell somebody who has paid that they have
no package. An instance counts as well, whatever its subscription row says.
With neither, the page says so and points at the booking page: an "Upgrade"
from nothing is a purchase, and that has its own page.

The cart stays outside that gate. A customer can have something in it before
they have any contract at all, and hiding it there would hide the thing they
came to pay for — which is what my first version did, and seven existing
tests said so.

And the booking page. Five cards in a four-column grid left the fifth alone
on its own row, reading as a mistake; the consent box sat at the BOTTOM with
every buy button disabled until it was ticked, so the page arrived looking
broken before anybody had done anything wrong; and the price ran across the
card in one block with nothing to compare.

Now the consent comes first, because it is the condition for everything under
it, and it colours itself green once given. Three columns, so five plans read
as 3 + 2. Each card is the same four rows in the same order — price, delivery,
what you get, the button — so the eye can run across a row and compare like
with like. The button stays ENABLED with the reason it will not go through
said under it: a disabled control explains nothing, and the server is the gate
either way.

tests / pest (push) Failing after 8m17s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 19s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
"Abmelden und neu registrieren" was advice that could not work. Signing out
frees nothing: the address is still held by the unique index, so registering
again with the address somebody meant fails — and every abandoned attempt
stayed in `users` for ever. Reported exactly that way, and it was right.

The button discards the account instead. Only an UNCONFIRMED one, and only
one with nothing behind it: the webhook creates a customer's login from a
paid checkout, so a user can sit on this page unconfirmed while already
having a contract, and deleting that is data loss dressed up as a
convenience. It refuses and says where to go. A confirmed account is closed,
not discarded — that is ConfirmCloseAccount, with an invoice history behind
it.

R23: confirmed in a modal. The modal mutates nothing; it dispatches the event
the page listens for, so the checks stay in the one place they already are
rather than being duplicated where they could drift.

And nothing has to be discarded by hand. clupilot:prune-unverified removes
registrations nobody confirmed after five days — long enough for somebody who
signed up on a Friday and found the mail in a spam folder on Monday, short
enough that a typo does not hold the correct address for a month. It skips a
confirmed account whatever its age, and any account with a customer record
behind it, matched on user_id AND on the address, because either link means
somebody is a customer. Every removal is logged with the address: a line that
disappears is what somebody asks about later, and a count answers nothing.

The deadline is said on the page as well as in the mail. Somebody who never
received the mail is looking at the page, and the deadline is the reason they
do not have to do anything about an attempt they abandon.

tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
"Ich versuche mich zu registrieren, erhalte aber keine Verify-Mail, auch
nicht beim erneuten Senden." Traced rather than guessed, and the evidence is
in storage/logs: the address appears three times, so the mails were built and
handed to a transport that writes them to a file.

MAIL_MAILER=log. MailboxTransport::resolution() short-circuits on it —
NON_DELIVERING is ['log', 'array', null] — so every purpose mailer becomes
the log transport however well the five mailboxes are configured, which is
correct for a development machine and exactly what was happening here.

The reason it deserves a notice is that the failure is silent in every
direction an operator would look. Mail::queue() succeeds. No job fails. The
queue empties. And the console's own mailbox test reports SUCCESS, because
MailboxTester builds its own transport on purpose — a check that honoured
MAIL_MAILER=log would report success while writing to a file. So every
instrument on the page said fine.

Now the front page says it, linked to the mail page, and the mail page says
it above the mailboxes it makes decorative. All three swallowing values are
named, not only 'log': array and an unset default do the same thing, and a
notice that only knew about one would be silent in the two cases nobody
thinks to check.

Two existing tests asserted that a clean installation raises no notice, and
went red — correctly, because phpunit.xml forces MAIL_MAILER=array so a suite
cannot send mail. They pin a delivering mailer now: the warning is about the
environment, those tests are about the estate.

"Ich komme auf dem lokalen Dev-Server nicht auf www.dev." Diagnosed rather
than guessed: Laravel answers 200 on that host, and the request never
reaches it — site.public is false, so PublicSiteGate returns the placeholder
with a 503 to every visitor who is not on the management VPN and not signed
in as an operator. Which is precisely what a broken deployment looks like
from outside, and the only place that said so was the switch itself, on
another page.

So the console says it now, on the page an operator opens when something
looks wrong, and the notice links to the switch.

The second half of the same report — being sent to app.… — is the missing
SITE_HOST. Without it the marketing site is registered without a hostname:
it answers on the PORTAL's host as well, and every route() it generates
points at APP_URL, so a link on the site lands on the portal's domain. Also
said, also with the host named.

Only where the installation is host-separated at all, though. A fresh
checkout binds nothing to a hostname by design — RestrictAdminHost:
"upgrading must not lock anyone out of a system that was working" — and a
warning there is furniture. My first version fired on every clean
installation and two existing tests said so immediately; they were right.

value: this project deliberately does not overlay stored secrets onto config
at boot — SecretVault's own docblock says so, and HttpMonitoringClient reads
its token at the point of use for exactly that reason. My docblock even
asserted the opposite mechanism, which I never verified. It reads the vault
now, and falls back to .env because SecretVault::get() already does.

And a way to find out. "Verbindung prüfen" saves the form first — testing
what is on screen while the server still holds the previous values would
report on a mailbox nobody configured — then performs the same four verbs
the real fetch performs: LOGIN, SELECT, SEARCH UNSEEN. A check that proves
something easier than the actual job is worse than none.

What it reports back is one of five fixed words, never the server's own
prose: an IMAP error carries the command it failed on, and for LOGIN that
command contains the password. Each word maps to a sentence an operator can
act on — address and port, mailbox and password, the folder.

The line saying when the mailbox was last reached is on both pages, and it
is written by the SCHEDULED run as well as by the button. Otherwise "last
checked" would mean "last time somebody pressed a button", which is the less
interesting of the two: a mailbox that stopped answering at three in the
morning is the one worth seeing, and nobody presses a button at three in the
morning. It is also shown when the answer is "never" — an empty inbox and a
mailbox that stopped answering look identical, and this line is the whole
difference.

A fetch against a mailbox that just refused the login now takes nothing in
and records the refusal, rather than reporting "nothing new" — which was
true and useless.

Also: HostStepsTest asserted the literal clupilot.com for a host name. That
was true until CLUPILOT_DNS_ZONE was set to clupilot.cloud on this
installation, and then a correct configuration failed a test. The zone is
pinned in the test now; what it is about is the shape of the name and which
address it carries.

nexxo b1e5bf8023 Fix round: match the actual selection IssueInvoice and sync use
Two of the five billing checks measured something close to, but not
the same as, what actually gates the flow they report on:

- billing.invoice_series counted distinct kinds without filtering on
  `active`, but IssueInvoice draws its series with
  where('kind', ...)->where('active', true) (IssueInvoice.php:373,
  :444) — a deactivated row is invisible to it exactly like a missing
  one. An installation with a switched-off 'invoice' series was
  reported ready while no invoice could draw a number: false-green.

- billing.catalogue_synced counted every PlanPrice with a null
  stripe_price_id, but stripe:sync-catalogue only ever mirrors
  PUBLISHED versions (SyncStripeCatalogue's own header comment). A
  draft's unsynced price is an ordinary state, not a gap; the old
  query kept this check permanently unsatisfied on any installation
  that had ever drafted a next version — an alarm always on and
  therefore never read.

Both queries now mirror the condition the real gate uses instead of a
similar-looking one of their own. Two tests added that were red before
the fix: an inactive required series that must not read as ready, and
an unpublished draft's unsynced price that must not raise an alarm.

Also strengthens the weakest breaks sentence: invoice_series_breaks
named the mechanism ("a document cannot draw a number") rather than
the consequence, unlike its four siblings. It now says what the
customer and operator actually experience — a running cloud with no
invoice, the failure only logged — matching company_details_breaks.

nexxo d9c0ad0e4a Say what breaks, not just which field is empty
Task 7: the readiness collector (App\Support\Readiness) and its first
group, billing (App\Support\Readiness\BillingChecks). Reports missing
prerequisites — the active mode's Stripe key, its webhook signing
secret, complete company details, an invoice series per document kind,
a fully Stripe-synced catalogue — without enforcing anything itself;
the real locks (IssueInvoice, the checkout's Stripe-key guard) stay
where they are.

The webhook check uses App\Support\StripeWebhookSecret::current()
rather than querying config() by mode a second time, and the company
check calls CompanyProfile::missingForInvoicing() rather than
duplicating its list — two sources for one question is how they drift
apart.

Added lang/de/readiness.php and lang/en/readiness.php with every
`readiness.*` key this group uses, each `_breaks` sentence naming the
actual downstream failure rather than repeating the field name.

nexxo 32a8bd9a88 Refuse the sale instead of reaching Stripe without a key
Task 5: Billing::purchase() now checks SecretVault for a stripe.secret before
touching anything else — no customer, no plan lookup, no Order row — and the
customer reads a plain sentence instead of a 500 page. HttpStripeClient's own
secret() throws the same StripeNotConfigured exception rather than sending a
request with an empty bearer token and letting Stripe's 401 stand in for the
real cause.

isConfigured() was fixed alongside it: it used to call secret() too, which
would have turned every "is Stripe set up?" check (the checkout controller,
the catalogue sync commands) into an uncaught exception the moment a key went
missing — the opposite of what this task is for. It now reads the vault
directly.

The new guard is unconditional, including for the cart-only purchase types
(storage, addon, plan changes) that never call Stripe themselves — a cart
order nobody can ever pay for is pointless to create. That broke every
existing Billing/Cart/Downgrade test that calls purchase() without a stored
key; each affected fixture now deposits one via the new withStripeSecret()
Pest helper. A few of those tests (CustomDomainAccessTest, DowngradeTest) were
passing already but for the wrong reason — the new guard, not the check they
were named for — since both only assert an order was NOT created; they get
the same fixture fix so they still prove what they claim.

nexxo 9da1358802 Stop charging VAT to the customers who owe us none
A verified EU business outside Austria gets reverse charge — rate 0, no VAT
line, the note on the invoice — and was still charged 214,80 € for a 179,00 €
package, because one Stripe Price carried the domestic gross for everybody.
There is no VAT line on their document to reclaim, so it was a flat 20 %
surcharge on exactly the customers who read their invoices, and the document
then stated the whole 214,80 € as net at 0 %, so they self-accounted their own
VAT on a base a fifth too large.

A Stripe Price can ask who is buying after all: there are two per sellable
thing now, the domestic gross and the bare net, both live on one Product, and
the checkout picks by TaxTreatment. The rule is Austria B2B 20 %, other EU B2B
without VAT — a domestic business still pays the gross, reclaims it as input
tax, and the price on the website is still the price charged for them.

- stripe:sync-catalogue mints and archives both halves of every pair, per plan
  and per module; `reverse_charge` on stripe_plan_prices/stripe_addon_prices
  says which is which, and joining it on subscriptions.stripe_price_id says
  which one a running contract is billed on. A rate change moves the gross
  Price and leaves the net one alone, because the net owes nothing to the rate.
- A status that changes after the sale converges: a verification (or a lapse)
  makes stripe:reprice-subscriptions move the contract onto the other Price
  with PRORATE_NONE, because the term is already paid for. The module items
  follow the same way.
- Downstream follows: the invoice total equals what was taken, the proof
  register expects the figure this customer is actually charged (so a correct
  reverse-charge sale is no longer flagged as a mismatch, and an overcharged
  one is), the setup fee obeys the same rule, and the booking page quotes what
  it will charge.
- StripeClient gained activatePrice(). Archived Prices were brought back in our
  own table and left inactive at Stripe, so a rate that moved and moved back
  pointed the catalogue at a Price no checkout could be opened for.

An unverified number is still charged the gross — an unchecked string must
never be a discount — and where the net Price is missing the checkout refuses
rather than reaching for the domestic one.

tests / pest (push) Failing after 8m5s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 25s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Five places where the product told somebody a figure that nothing behind
it produced.

**The invoice page showed five invoices nobody was ever issued.** A mock
that outlived its purpose: CP-2026-0003 to CP-2026-0007, a prefix
belonging to no configured series, all "paid", a spend curve from 179 to
198 € and a next charge of 198 € on 01.08.2026 — behind
['auth','verified','customer.active'], so every signed-in customer saw
it. Their real invoices existed in `invoices`, were rendered as PDFs and
mailed to them, and appeared nowhere in the portal at all. The page now
lists their own documents, newest first, with the numbers, dates and
totals off the frozen snapshot, a Storno marked as one, and a download.
The PDF route resolves the document against the signed-in customer in
the query — a URL anybody can type is not made private by not printing
it. No next charge and no chart: nothing here computes what Stripe will
take next cycle, and a figure nobody has worked out is worse than a
blank space.

**The setup fee was quoted everywhere and charged nowhere.** On the
price sheet, on the booking page, set by the operator in the console —
and CompanyProfile::setupFeeCents() had no reader outside the two
sentences that quoted it. It is charged now, as a second non-recurring
line on the same checkout session, which Stripe puts on the initial
invoice only. `orders.setup_fee_cents` records how much of the charge it
was, so the whole total still goes back on a withdrawal while the
register holds the PACKAGE's charge against the contract price and the
invoice prints the fee as a line of its own. The booking page was also
quoting the fee NET under the same sentence the website quotes GROSS —
99,00 against 118,80 — and now quotes what will be taken.

**An upgrade click cancelled a booked downgrade and delivered nothing.**
Nothing in this application marks a cart order paid, so the customer
traded a downgrade they had genuinely booked for a cart line that would
never be fulfilled. The booking now stands until the upgrade actually
lands on the contract, where ApplyPlanChange clears it. The fulfilment
seam is reachable for every type that can be paid — a module and a
storage pack book through BookAddon, which was the missing path from a
paid order to a SubscriptionAddon and left AddonPrices,
SyncStripeAddonItems and clupilot:end-cancelled-addons with no caller
behind a payment. A paid traffic pack logs an error rather than pretending:
the metered allowance is a standing count of packs while a top-up is sold
for one month, and which of the two is meant is not a guess to make here.
That no path to `paid` exists yet is now stated in both places rather
than in one.

**The proof register called correct charges wrong.** expected_gross_cents
used the CUSTOMER's rate, which is zero under reverse charge, against
the domestic gross Stripe actually took — so matches_catalogue was false
for every EU business sale charged exactly the advertised amount, and
for every renewal on a contract with a module, which was held against
`price_cents` alone. It compares against TaxTreatment::chargedCents()
and against the whole term now. Where no money moved, charged and the
flag are null instead of the expected figure agreeing with itself, and a
plan change records the terms with the pro-rata figures in the snapshot
rather than money that arrives again on Stripe's proration invoice.

**The seller's own VAT id was on the invoice, unlabelled**, between the
register number and the court. Labelled — and the footer's composition
moved out of the TCPDF method, because inside one the only way to read
what it says is to render a PDF and un-subset its fonts.

One test enshrined a figure the code does not produce: a reverse-charge
purchase recorded with no charged amount, asserting 17900/0/17900, where
OpenSubscription always passes the charged figure and a real one records
21480/0/21480. Another asserted that an upgrade click cancels a booked
downgrade.

Full suite: 1676 passed.

nexxo 336ca9d88c Make host onboarding survive the machine it runs on
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m52s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 20s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Nine defects in the host pipeline, every one of which either stopped an
install or let a host reach `active` while it could not do its job.

The install-stoppers:

- InstallProxmoxVe hard-coded `bookworm`. A server ordered today boots
  Debian 13 trixie, so it added the PVE 8 repo and keyring to a trixie
  base. The codename now comes from /etc/os-release, the suite and keyring
  are looked up per release, and an unknown one fails naming what it found
  instead of guessing. Keys land in /usr/share/keyrings with Signed-By
  rather than in the deprecated trusted.gpg.d, where they would vouch for
  every other repository on the machine too.

- keyLogin() dialled wg_ip whenever it was filled, but wg_ip is persisted
  inside the allocation lock BEFORE the handshake is ever proven. Attempt
  1 reserved the address and failed at the handshake; every later attempt,
  including a console Retry, died connecting to a tunnel that did not work
  — before reaching the only code that could repair wg0.conf. Recovery
  meant nulling hosts.wg_ip by hand. SSH now uses the tunnel only once the
  `wg_peer` breadcrumb proves a handshake succeeded, which also rescues
  the same shape in RebootIntoPveKernel, ConfigureProxmox,
  CreateAutomationToken and SecureHostFirewall. Not a hole: 22 on the
  public IP is open until SecureHostFirewall runs, that step runs last,
  and by then the tunnel is necessarily proven. And nothing validated the
  hub key/endpoint, so renderConfig() would emit `PublicKey = ` — now
  refused before anything is installed, allocated or written.

- `systemctl enable --now wg-quick@wg0 || wg-quick up wg0` brought the
  interface up without the enablement, so the tunnel did not come back
  after the step-6 reboot; on the next attempt both halves failed with
  "wg0 already exists" and the step retried forever on a working tunnel.
  The three states are handled separately now, and a changed wg0.conf is
  actually applied instead of only written.

- RebootIntoPveKernel removed the Debian kernel with `|| true`, ignored
  update-grub's exit status, and rebooted. A /boot that filled up during
  the full-upgrade could leave a machine only the provider's console can
  reach. The pve kernel image, its initramfs and update-grub's exit status
  are all proven first; anything missing fails loudly and does not reboot.

- ConfigureProxmox ran `ip link show vmbr0` and threw the result away
  (its comment claimed it recorded the absence; it recorded nothing), then
  repeated a rm -f, and always advanced. Proxmox on top of Debian does not
  create vmbr0, so onboarding reported `active` with no bridge. It now
  fails with the default route in the message and deliberately does not
  build the bridge over the primary NIC from a remote shell.

The things that were quietly inert:

- Proxmox applies a guest's firewall rules only while the firewall is
  enabled at datacenter level, and it ships disabled — so applyFirewall()'s
  "80/443 only" rules were inert on every customer VM. Enabling it blindly
  is the opposite trap (input policy defaults to DROP, node firewall
  defaults to on, and its management ipset is seeded from the PUBLIC
  subnet, not the tunnel), so: policy ACCEPT and the node firewall off
  first, master switch last, read back to confirm. nftables stays the one
  owner of the host's input policy.

- role_privs lacked Sys.Modify, which POST /cluster/backup requires
  (pve-manager's PVE/API2/Backup.pm), so RegisterBackup 403'd and failed
  EVERY customer run. And `pveum role add … || true` only ever applied the
  privilege list on the run that created the role — it converges now, above
  the token short-circuit so a replay reaches it.

- The nftables ruleset dropped all ICMP and ICMPv6. On a real host that
  breaks IPv6 outright once the neighbour cache expires and black-holes
  large transfers through PMTUD. Both families accept the types they need,
  policy drop stays, and a DHCP client reply is allowed so a rebind cannot
  lose the IPv4 address.

- api_token_ref used the `encrypted` cast, i.e. APP_KEY, against
  SecretVault's own written rule. One rotation would have made every host's
  Proxmox token undecryptable at once. Moved onto SecretCipher with a
  migration that leaves any value it cannot read exactly as it is and says
  so, rather than destroying a credential that exists nowhere else.

- Every plan version points at template_vmid 9000 and nothing created or
  verified it, so the first paid order died in CloneVirtualMachine after
  the customer had paid. VerifyVmTemplate reports that during onboarding
  instead. It does not build a template: what goes into the golden image is
  a product decision.

Three tests that proved nothing, fixed: `ran(…emergency-open-firewall.sh)`
only ever matched the `chmod 700` above it, because putFile() is not
recorded — the script's contents are now asserted, including that nothing
in it reopens the firewall on a timer or in the background. The port policy
was tested one-sidedly, so a mutation adding `tcp dport { 8006 } accept`
passed the suite; the ruleset is now read as a list of what it opens to an
unrestricted source. And the end-to-end test says in writing that it proves
sequencing only.

nexxo 8440266ed3 Stop charging for a service that has ended
Nothing in this application could cancel a Stripe subscription — there was
no such method on the client at all. So a customer who cancelled and a
consumer who withdrew both stayed subscribed, the card went on being
charged every month, and every one of those payments arrived as
invoice.paid, drew a real number out of the gapless Austrian series and
mailed the PDF, for a machine that had been switched off. Indefinitely.

StripeClient::cancelSubscription() closes the first half, with the timing
passed explicitly at the call site — CANCEL_AT_PERIOD_END for a
cancellation, because the customer keeps the term they paid for, and
CANCEL_IMMEDIATELY for a withdrawal, because that unwinds the contract and
the whole amount has just gone back. The immediate form states prorate and
invoice_now as false rather than inheriting them: a credit note of Stripe's
beside our own Storno would be the same money twice.

The second half is ApplyStripeBillingEvent::owesADocument(). Refusing every
invoice on a cancelled contract would lose the legitimate final one — the
cycle for a term the customer really did use, unpaid, dunned for three
weeks and settled after the contract ended. So the question is not when the
payment landed but what it is for: an invoice whose billed period STARTED
before the contract ended is documented, one whose period begins at or
after that moment is not. Neither is a contract marked cancelled with no
date, nor an invoice with no period, because a number handed out in error
can never be withdrawn while a missing document can still be issued. The
register entry is written either way — the money moved, and that is where an
operator finds what has to go back.

A cancellation also took its date from the order date plus MONTHS, whatever
the term said, so a yearly customer who cancelled in March lost the nine
months they had already paid for. It reads current_period_end now, which
Stripe keeps current for both terms; the month-walk survives only for a
machine with no contract behind it, where nothing records a term at all.
Stripe is asked first and our rows are written only if it agreed: a
cancellation we could not make effective is the defect above wearing a
"gekündigt" label on the settings page, and a cancellation has no deadline,
so being asked to try again costs nobody anything.

A withdrawal cancelled the OPENING invoice only, found by invoices.order_id
— which a renewal and a module document leave null on purpose. A storage
pack booked on day three and withdrawn from on day ten was therefore
neither cancelled nor refunded. Every charge inside the window is covered
now, one Storno per document and one refund per payment, each against the
payment that actually took it: a single refund of the total against the
opening PaymentIntent is what Stripe would have refused for exceeding it,
and one idempotency key for the whole withdrawal would have had Stripe
replay the first refund's answer for the second.

StartCustomerProvisioning::resume() opened a missing contract and returned,
and the only production call to IssueInvoice::forOrders() is after the order
commits — so a worker killed in between cost that customer their invoice for
good, silently, with nothing anywhere sweeping for it. resume() finishes that
work too, guarded by the invoice already filed against the order and by
invoices.sent_at, so however often Stripe redelivers it comes out as one
invoice, one number, one mail. The order confirmation stays on the first
pass alone: it has nothing to stamp.

subscriptions.cancel_requested_at is new because the billing half of the
application had no way to tell a cancelled contract from an untouched one.
Deliberately not a status: until the term runs out this is a paying
customer, which is the distinction EndInstanceService is built around, and
`cancelled_at` beside it still means the day it genuinely ended.

clupilot:verify-vat-ids is scheduled monthly on the first, and its docblock
no longer points at a note in routes/console.php that never existed. Reverse
charge rested on a one-off VIES answer, a withdrawn registration keeps
earning rate 0 for ever, and the unpaid VAT on those invoices is the
seller's — so the cadence is the width of that window, and the first of the
month is the rhythm the return is filed on.

Two tests that proved nothing are now about behaviour. SettingsTest asserted
service_ends_at was not null, a column the code had just written and which
the broken monthly arithmetic satisfied exactly as well as the right answer;
it states the yearly date, the contract's own record and the order to Stripe.
EndInstanceServiceTest travelled to whatever value the implementation had
computed, so it recomputed the code instead of checking it, and never looked
at billing at all; the boundary is a literal date now and the money stopping
is asserted beside the address coming down.

tests / assets (push) Successful in 23s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
The console could show them and not touch them, so a moved office or a new
contact person meant impersonating the customer or editing the database by
hand. Both are worse than a form. R20: a modal, opened from the Stammdaten
tab, authorising again and reading the record itself rather than trusting
anything the browser hydrated.

Most of the work is in what saving must NOT quietly do.

The customer type is never reset to "nobody asked". The field opens on
"leave unchanged" precisely so that saving an address correction cannot
undo it — that answer decides whether a withdrawal right exists, and losing
it silently would be the expensive kind of quiet.

A changed VAT number is unverified from the moment it is stored — the
verification is bound to the value, so that happens by itself — but
`vat_id_verified_value` is left alone: it is the record of what WAS checked,
and clearing it would destroy the evidence rather than the claim.

The address is also the sign-in address and the key inbound mail is matched
by, so changing it moves the linked portal login in the same transaction and
puts it back to unverified, which is what Laravel's own profile update does
for the same reason: nobody has shown they can read the new address. No mail
is sent from here — the portal asks for the confirmation at the next
sign-in, and a mail an operator did not knowingly send is a surprise.

Three addresses are refused: one belonging to an operator (R21 — no index
spans the two tables, so it is checked), one belonging to another customer,
and one belonging to somebody else's user row, which can outlive or predate
a matching customer.

Not offered here, each for its own reason: `status`, because suspending has
consequences for access and a lifecycle switch hidden among address fields
is one somebody flips by accident; `stripe_customer_id`, because a wrong one
does not move a contract, it points our records at somebody else's payments;
the brand fields, because the customer sets those for themselves and an
operator overwriting a logo is not a correction. There is a test that fails
if any of them appears — with the comments stripped first, since the class
documents at length why they are absent and that documentation is not the
offence. This repository has fallen into that trap three times.

tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
vat_id_verified_at was declared on the customer and read by TaxTreatment, and
set by no code anywhere. hasVerifiedVatId() therefore never returned true, so
reverse charge could not trigger for anybody - and every EU business customer was
invoiced Austrian VAT they cannot reclaim in their own country, which is not a
pass-through for them but a real cost until the invoice is corrected.

The check has THREE outcomes, and the third is why VatIdCheck exists. VIES is a
gateway onto twenty-seven national registers and any of them is regularly down.
Reading "I could not ask" as "not registered" would clear a verification that has
stood for months, move that customer onto the domestic rate, and change what
their next invoice says - because a register was asleep. Reading it as
"registered" would put reverse charge on an unchecked number, which is our
liability. So on UNAVAILABLE nothing at all is written.

Asked at the moment the number is entered, because that is when somebody is
looking at the field and can fix a typo. The save has already happened by then
and the check cannot undo it: a register that is down must not cost a customer
their address change.

Shape and membership are refused before a request is spent, and the fake refuses
on the same rule as the real verifier. A fake that answers where VIES would never
have been asked is not a simplification but a different product, and free text
normalises into a well-formed number more easily than it looks - "not a number"
becomes NOTANUMBER, which the shape rule alone reads as a Norwegian one.

clupilot:verify-vat-ids re-asks about the numbers reverse charge rests on, since
a registration can be withdrawn. Deliberately not scheduled: it queries a public
service with a concurrency limit on behalf of somebody else's tax position, and
the cadence is the owner's to set.

tests / pest (push) Failing after 9m21s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 21s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Stripe was charging the catalogue's NET figure while the document added the
domestic rate on top: a customer quoted 214,80 paid 179,00 and was then invoiced
for VAT nobody had collected. Under para 11(12) UStG that VAT is owed to the tax
office whether or not it ever arrived, so every document issued created a
liability against revenue that did not contain it.

The Stripe Price now carries the GROSS figure. price_cents stays net - it is
frozen onto every contract and PlanChange prorates against it, so redefining it
would corrupt every pro-rata sum ever computed. Only the amount at the till
moved, and it is formed by the one call TaxTreatment already answers for the
price sheet and for the invoice, so displayed, charged and invoiced cannot drift
apart.

Stripe's automatic_tax is deliberately not used. TaxTreatment is the single tax
authority here, and a second rate computed by Stripe would take 19 % from a
German consumer while our document said 20 %.

A Stripe Price cannot be edited, so a changed figure means a new Price and the
old one archived - which stops it being SOLD and leaves every subscription
already on it billing the old amount for ever. stripe:reprice-subscriptions is
the second half, and a command of its own because it touches live money.

A withdrawing consumer is refunded in full, as the owner decided. That is more
generous than FAGG para 16 requires, and it makes the express-request consent the
statute hinges on irrelevant - so the gate is gone rather than left looking
load-bearing.

Two complaints, one cause: the customer page was a compose box with three

The page is five tabs now. Stammdaten — contact, phone, since when,
language, and the tax standing: consumer or business, with "nobody asked"
saying so rather than passing for business, because that answer decides
whether a withdrawal right exists at all. Paket — the contract's own
FROZEN figures, the modules at the price they were booked at, and the
machine: address, state, host, datacenter. Zahlungen — invoices with net,
gross and their PDF, and the orders beside them, because an order is a
purchase and an invoice is a document about one. Nachrichten — the portal
requests in the customer's own words, the mail they sent, the mail we
sent. Schreiben — last, because it is what you do after reading.

The tab is in the query string, like Settings and Integrations: a reload,
a bookmark and the back button all land where the operator was, and a link
can point at the tab that matters.

And templates, under Betrieb → E-Mail-Vorlagen. Most customer questions
are the same five questions, and typing the answer again every time is how
two customers get told two different things about one subject. A template
is INSERTED into the compose field with the customer's own details filled
in — never sent as it stands, because the last two sentences always belong
to the person asking. What goes out is what the operator saw and edited.

Three decisions worth naming. {{contact}} takes the contact person where
one is on record and the company name otherwise, because "Guten Tag
Beispiel GmbH" is the line that gives away a mail written by a database.
{{amount}} is the gross figure — what the price sheet quoted them and what
their bank statement says. And a typo comes out as {{kunde}}, standing
there in the field where the operator sees it, rather than as an empty
string that produces "Guten Tag ,". A placeholder with no value for this
customer stays empty; nothing is invented.

Placeholders are named in English because they are identifiers, not prose:
a template has to survive somebody switching the console's language. The
list the page documents is the renderer's own, so a token added in one
place appears in the other without being written down twice.

Blade's echo tag ends at the first }} it finds, which turned a literal
placeholder in the documentation into compiled nonsense. Assembled in PHP
now, and caught by the test that renders the page rather than by somebody
opening it.

No, not an API token: mailcow's API administers domains and mailboxes —
it does not read mail. Reading a mailbox is IMAP whoever runs the server,
so that is what this is. Host, user and folder are console settings; the
password is a vault entry, like every other credential that opens
something.

IMAP by hand rather than a dependency. Four verbs are needed — LOGIN,
SELECT, SEARCH UNSEEN, FETCH — and the parsing that follows is the real
work either way. It is bounded by what the console shows: a sender, a
subject, the words a person wrote, and the NAMES of anything attached.
Real mail from real people arrives encoded, so it handles RFC 2047
subjects (every German subject with an umlaut in it), quoted-printable
and base64 bodies, Windows charsets, and multipart — text wins over HTML,
because a console is not a mail client and the words are in the text
part. A message it cannot make sense of is skipped and logged, never
guessed at: a garbled question in front of an operator is worse than one
they go and read in the mailbox, where it still is.

ATTACHMENTS ARE NOT STORED. Only their names and sizes, so an operator
knows something was attached and can go and look if it matters. Keeping
whatever a stranger chooses to send would make this application a malware
store with a web interface in front of it.

Whose a mail is, is decided by the sender's ADDRESS and by nothing else —
not by a name in the subject, not by anything in the body. A mail is easy
to write and this decision attaches a stranger's words to a real
customer's file; there is a test that forges the name and the subject and
still gets nothing. An address nobody recognises stays unassigned, shown
FIRST and never hidden: that is a new enquiry, or a customer writing from
their private account, and it is the mail that must not be missed. An
operator can place it by hand from the same row.

Nothing is deleted on the mail server, ever. Messages are flagged seen
once the row is safely written — and only then, because flagging first
and failing after would lose the message with no second copy anywhere.
Filing one away is this console's own state; the mailbox is untouched.

Two fixes on the way past: the customer page printed
"customers.status.active" and "support.status.open" — a lang key with no
file behind it renders as itself and Laravel says nothing — and the same
page is now covered by a test proving each list is scoped to the customer
in the URL, which was reported as "unterhalb steht immer das selbe".

tests / assets (push) Successful in 22s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Three things the product owed its customers and did not have.

**Who is on the other side.** There was no consumer/business flag anywhere,
and `vat_id` was standing in for one — which it cannot: a business without a
VAT number is an ordinary small business, and a consumer with one does not
exist. It is asked at sign-up now, correctable in the portal, and NULL where
nobody has been asked. Unknown is read as CONSUMER everywhere it decides a
right, because that mistake costs us a refund while the other one takes a
statutory right away from somebody who has it.

Reverse charge asks the recorded type instead of the number: an explicit
consumer is charged the domestic rate whatever `vat_id` says — previously they
were not, and anyone could zero their own VAT by getting a number verified. An
unrecorded type still falls back to the verified number, so no contract that is
already running changes rate.

**The fourteen-day right of withdrawal** (FAGG, §312g BGB), for consumers only,
at every door: the window is stamped on the contract when it is concluded, the
customer exercises it from the portal, an operator records one that arrived by
telephone or post, and both go through one action that refuses a business
customer on the server rather than by hiding a card.

The money follows the paperwork rather than being computed beside it. The
invoice is cancelled by a Storno with its own gapless number — nothing is ever
edited or deleted — a new invoice states the pro-rata value of the service
actually delivered (FAGG §16, by days over the term paid for), and the refund
is exactly the difference between the two documents. Where the consumer never
expressly asked for the service to begin at once, they owe nothing and the whole
amount goes back. `StripeClient::refund()` is new, keyed so a retry cannot send
the money twice. The service ends through EndInstanceService and the
`cancellation_scheduled` machinery that was already there.

**The cancel button for modules.** BookAddon::cancelAtPeriodEnd() had no caller
in the interface at all, so a customer could book a recurring charge in two
clicks and had no way to stop it. It is on the module card now, with the date it
runs until and a way back while the cancellation is still pending — and putting
a module back settles nothing, because the term it was cancelled for was paid
for in advance.

nexxo 0e25fe88d4 Keep a register of what was sent, and answer the customer from here
Three complaints, one shape: the console knew things and could not act on
them, so the work happened somewhere else and left no trace.

The header said "4 Hinweis(e)" and led nowhere. Whoever read it had to
know that the list was a card further down the same page, and then go
looking for the host or the failed run by hand. The count is a link now,
every notice carries the page that shows the thing it is about, and the
plural is a word rather than a bracket.

Nothing recorded what this installation had sent. "Hat der Kunde die
Zugangsdaten je bekommen, und wann?" was answered on the mail server — a
different machine, a different program, and nothing an operator can put
in front of somebody who says nothing ever arrived. Every mail now writes
a row: when, to whom, which mailable, and the customer it belongs to.
Written from MessageSent, so a row means the transport accepted it; that
is the strongest thing an application can honestly claim, and a column
called "delivered" would be pretending otherwise. Verification and reset
mails are left out on purpose — they go to unconfirmed addresses and
anybody who can type into a form can send them, so recording them would
hand the register to whoever wants to fill it.

And the customer list was the end of the road. There is a page behind it
now: what they bought, what they asked in their own words, what we sent
them, and a box to write the next message. It goes out from the support
mailbox and is recorded on the way — with its body, because an operator
typed it and "what exactly did I write to them in March" is a question
the mail server's log cannot answer either. Answering a request from here
closes it, which is the reason to answer from here at all: answering from
a mail client leaves it open for ever, because nothing tells it otherwise.

Found on the way, by a test that sent a real mail rather than asserting it
was queued: resources/views/mail/reset-password.blade.php was missing its
closing </x-mail.layout>. The component's contents were never terminated,
the layout's own @if ran off the end of the file, and the mail raised a
Blade syntax error instead of rendering. Password reset has therefore
never delivered a link since it was built. Closed, plus a test that
renders it and one that counts opening against closing tags across every
mail view.

Reading INCOMING mail in the console is not in this: it needs the mailbox
polled over IMAP, which is a credential and a dependency. Requests filed
through the portal appear here in full; a customer who writes by mail
instead still has to be read in the mail client.

nexxo 8f1630ba91 Bill a booked module every month, and put it on the invoice
A module was never an item on the Stripe subscription, so it was charged in
the month it was booked and never again. And the renewal document was written
from our own contract snapshot, so it would not have said so even if the money
had been taken. Two halves of one fault, closed together.

Modules are items now. stripe:sync-catalogue mirrors a Product and a Price per
module on both terms — a Stripe Price carries its own interval, and a booking
frozen at an older figure needs its own Price, so they are keyed by module,
amount, currency and interval in stripe_addon_prices. Booking adds an item with
always_invoice: prorated by days AND charged there and then, which is the
invoice the owner wants for a module booked mid-term. A second storage pack is
a quantity on one item, not a second item. Cancelling takes the item off with
no proration — no credit, and the next cycle is simply smaller — while the
module itself is kept until the period end on subscription_addons.cancels_at
and ended by clupilot:end-cancelled-addons.

Documents are built from Stripe's own invoice lines. Stripe is what charged the
customer; a document assembled from our figures would state a sum that is not
the one taken. So every paid Stripe invoice gets one document with one number,
idempotent on stripe_invoice_id — a cycle carrying package and every module
together, a mid-period booking carrying just its prorated line, an upgrade
carrying its proration. Only the wording is ours: each line is named from the
catalogue rather than printed as a Price id, and a line nobody can name stays on
the document under Stripe's own description and is logged. The checkout's own
invoice is still the one exception; that purchase already has a document.

Stripe being away never undoes a booking that has already reached the machine.
The failure is parked on the contract in stripe_addon_sync and swept by the
same clupilot:sync-stripe-subscriptions that retries a plan change, which finds
its work from the bookings themselves rather than from the marker. A granted
contract has no Stripe subscription and is not touched at all.

nexxo 6b8412f0c3 Write an invoice for work that came off no price list
tests / pest (push) Failing after 8m11s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 20s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Not everything we are paid for is a package. Somebody asks whether their
data can be moved into Nextcloud; we look at it, we say what it costs, we
do it. That is a real invoice with no order and no contract behind it,
and the only way to produce one was to write it somewhere else — which
puts it outside the series. A numbered series with a document missing
from it is worth nothing at an audit.

So it goes through the same door as every other invoice:
IssueInvoice::forService() draws from the same series and therefore the
same consecutive number, applies the same TaxTreatment (a verified
business in another member state gets its reverse charge and the note
that makes a zero-rated document lawful), freezes the same immutable
snapshot and dispatches the same archive jobs.

The page under Rechnungen writes what the operator typed and nothing
else. Amounts are in euro because it is a form — 12,95 becomes 1295 by
round(), not by a cast that would make it 1294 — and quantities go to a
thousandth because hours are billed in quarters. The total beside the
lines is the same InvoiceMath the document uses; a preview doing its own
arithmetic would be a second answer, and the first one anybody notices
differs is on a document that cannot be changed. There is no draft: a
"save as draft" that draws a number is an issued invoice with a friendlier
name.

The website's buy buttons go to the sign-in now, not to /order. Booking
belongs in the panel, where the account exists and its address has been
confirmed — which matters because that address is where the finished
cloud's credentials are sent. Sending an anonymous visitor at a page
behind auth worked, but only via a middleware bounce off a page they
never asked for.
