Reported with the network panel open: `update` and `state` both answering
503, then the overlay, then Laravel's 503 page, then a reload. Three
different screens for one event.
Livewire's default on a failed request is to render the response body. So a
wire:poll that happened to fire while the application was in maintenance mode
swapped the whole console for the 503 page — the panel the operator was
watching, replaced by an error page, for something that is not an error. A
deployment IS maintenance mode; that is the event, not a fault.
Three changes, and they are three because the request came from three places:
The status endpoint is exempt from maintenance mode. It is the deployment's
own status, read by the overlay every three seconds, and behind maintenance
mode it answered 503 for the entire run — so the overlay could never name the
step it was on. Safe to exempt: version, commit and a step name, behind the
console's host and network guards, and it writes nothing.
Livewire swallows a 503 instead of rendering it. For every request, not only
the poll: any action taken in that window did the same thing.
And the settings card stops polling for the duration. The overlay's own
watcher is a plain fetch with no component state behind it, which is why it
survives the restart; this poll cannot, and every attempt was a request that
answered 503.

The English paths and the zone migration went out in 5f74a5f and were gone
again in the tag. Reported for the fourth time, and the fourth report was
right: nothing had changed on the server.
What happened is mine and worth writing down. I have been building commits in
a private index (GIT_INDEX_FILE) to avoid staging a parallel session's
in-flight work, and moving the branch with `git update-ref`. That moves HEAD
without touching the shared index — so the index still described the PREVIOUS
commit. The very next ordinary `git commit` (the version bump) wrote that
stale index as a tree, which reverted every file of the commit before it. The
tag was cut from the revert.
Two things follow. The private-index technique is only safe while the branch
is not checked out; once it is, `git branch -f` refuses for exactly this
reason and `update-ref` is the same operation with the safety removed. And a
release is not verified by a green push — it is verified by reading the tag,
which is what finally found this.
Content unchanged from 5f74a5f: English fragments and legal paths with
permanent redirects, the guarded zone migration, and the test that walks every
route and fragment so a German path fails the suite instead of being reported
again.

v1.3.21 was taken by a parallel release between reading main and writing the
commit; the version file went out saying 1.3.21 on a commit that is not that
tag. Corrected here rather than by rewriting a pushed commit.

── The zone, for the fourth time ────────────────────────────────────────────
"Change it in the console" was the wrong answer three times running. An
installation with nothing to migrate should simply arrive on the new zone, so
a migration does it — guarded by exactly the condition clupilot:check-zone
reports on: no instance in service, therefore nothing carrying the old name in
DNS, in a certificate or in trusted_domains. With even one instance it does
nothing and logs why, because re-addressing a running Nextcloud is a migration
with an outage and a migration is not the place to start one. It leaves an
installation already on another zone alone: the setting exists so somebody
else can run this on their own domain.
That fixes both reports at once — the security page and the price sheet read
the same setting, which is the entire reason neither of them has the domain
typed into it.
── R13, applied to all of them this time ────────────────────────────────────
"Ich schreibe das nun zum dritten Mal" — fair. The rule was cited, I changed
the one route that had been pointed at, and left every other German path
standing. A fragment is part of a URL too.
#produkt → #product /legal/impressum → /legal/imprint
#ablauf → #process /legal/datenschutz → /legal/privacy
#preise → #pricing /legal/agb → /legal/terms
#fragen → #faq (old paths redirect, permanently — they have been
#kontakt → #contact in the footer and in mail for weeks)
The headings stay German. "Impressum" is the legal term an Austrian company
has to use; the address is not part of the copy.
A test now walks every registered route and every fragment the site links to,
so the next German path fails the suite instead of being reported a fourth
time.
Three existing tests set config('provisioning.dns.zone') and read it back
through the accessor. That worked while the setting was empty and stopped the
moment the migration filled it — they set the setting now, and the one whose
premise is "nothing saved yet" establishes that premise itself.

PlanChange could say what a move would cost and whether it was allowed, and
that was all it could do. Billing::purchase() wrote an upgrade order and
nothing ever consumed it: same snapshot, same machine, same quota. A customer
could pay for a bigger package and receive nothing.
ApplyPlanChange is now the single place a change lands — it moves the contract
onto the target's current version, writes one register row, settles the custom
domain, and starts a run that resizes the machine. Applying the same order
twice is a no-op, enforced by a unique event key rather than by a check two
callers could both pass.
Two things a plan change must not do, and now does not. A disk is never shrunk
— Proxmox cannot, so the QUOTA shrinks instead, which is what was sold anyway.
And a live machine is never rebooted as a side effect: cores and RAM are
written, and where they need a restart the instance says so where an operator
and the customer can both see it.
The storage allowance also joins the build pipeline. ApplyStorageQuota was
written for plan changes and ran only there, so a brand-new customer still got
no quota at all — quota_gb reached the instance row and stopped, and every
package delivered the whole disk. The test guarding that pipeline only counted
its steps, which is how a list missing the one step that makes a package's
storage real stayed green for its whole life. It now names the step.

── The hole ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
There was no password reset. Fortify's feature was commented out, so there
was no link on the sign-in form, no page and no route — a customer who forgot
their password was locked out of their own cloud until somebody opened a
shell. On a product whose selling point is that you can ring somebody, that
is a support call a week and an embarrassing one.
Two pages of ours under Fortify's route names (R1/R2), because with views off
Fortify registers only the POST endpoints. The mail is a Mailable in this
product's design rather than the framework's MailMessage: somebody who has
just been locked out is exactly the person a phishing mail is aimed at, and a
message that looks nothing like the rest of our post is one they cannot check
— ours carries the footer that names our domains.
Three decisions worth stating, each with a test:
The answer is identical whether the address is known or not. "No account with
that address" turns the form into a way of finding out who is a customer.
The reset kills every other session. Whoever knew the old password may still
be signed in somewhere, and a reset that leaves them there has fixed nothing.
It does NOT sign the visitor in. The link arrived by email, and a mailbox
somebody else can read would otherwise be a session somebody else gets.
── /sicherheit → /security ─────────────────────────────────────────────────
R13: paths are English. Mine was not. The old path stays as a permanent
redirect because it has already gone out in mail footers.
── One wordmark ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
"Sometimes it says Cloud and sometimes it does not" — correct. It was on the
footer, the placeholder and the maintenance screen, and absent from the
header, the sidebar and the sign-in plate. The product is called CluPilot
Cloud; that is the name on the invoices and in every mail, so it is now the
name everywhere. The console sidebar takes the small size so the lockup, the
ADMIN badge and the close button still share one line (R18).

A verified custom domain was reported as the customer's address by
Instance::address(), by the portal and by the credentials mail while
nothing on the platform routed it: the Traefik router's rule was
hard-coded to {subdomain}.{zone}. The address a customer was handed
answered nothing, and a withdrawn domain stayed in Nextcloud's
trusted_domains forever, because the only thing that ever wrote either
was the initial provisioning run.
- TraefikWriter::write() takes a LIST of hostnames under one stable
router name — the platform address always, the verified domain as
well when there is one. One file per instance, so a withdrawal is a
rewrite rather than a second thing somebody has to remember.
- ConfigureDnsAndTls records the custom domain's certificate instead of
waiting on it: it depends on an A record in the customer's own zone,
which may never appear, and must never fail a run. The platform
address keeps its 840s deadline. instances.domain_cert_ok tells
"proven" apart from "answering", and the portal now says which.
- ConfigureNextcloud deletes trusted_domains 2 when there is no verified
domain, so a withdrawn one stops being trusted.
- New `address` pipeline (those two steps) plus ReapplyInstanceAddress,
which starts one against the order and refuses to start a second while
any run is in flight. The route is rewritten when the hostname list
differs from what the router carries — not on route_written, which
would short-circuit exactly the case a re-apply exists for.
- Triggered where the address changes: verification flipping either way
in clupilot:verify-domains, the customer's own domain page, and
CustomDomainAccess::deactivate() on a package downgrade.
- A maintenance run no longer condemns its subject: an address run that
failed used to mark the order failed and release the live instance
with it.

The rule was decided in CustomDomainAccess but nothing asked it on the way
in: /domain answered every customer on every package, so the entry package
could set a domain it is not sold and cannot keep.
The guard sits in mount(), not on the route. A Livewire component answers
POSTs to /livewire/update by itself, so a route-only check would have left
save() and the rest reachable to exactly the customers it was meant to stop.
The sidebar asks the same question through a gate rather than a second copy
of the rule — a customer holds no permissions at all (R21 puts all seventeen
on the operator guard), so can() had nothing to filter on and the tab was
shown to everyone, leading straight into the 403 the page now raises.
Customer::forUser() carries the resolution the Livewire concern used to own,
because the gate has to answer outside any component and a second copy of
its email fallback is how the two would drift apart.

── The zone ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
A fresh install now addresses customer instances under clupilot.cloud rather
than clupilot.com. Not branding: a Nextcloud is third-party software that
strangers sign in to, and on the same registrable domain as the portal it
shares cookie scope, document.domain and CAA with it. The same reason
googleusercontent.com and vercel.app exist.
Existing installations keep whatever the console says — the zone has been a
setting all along. `clupilot:check-zone <zone>` reports what a change would
touch before anything is touched: the DNS records, the monitoring targets,
the certificates and Nextcloud's trusted_domains all carry the old name and
the setting reaches none of them. With no instances in service it says so and
stops. Changing it later is a migration with an outage, and the command says
that too.
── Which addresses are ours ────────────────────────────────────────────────
A new public page at /sicherheit: the domains that belong to us, the rule for
reading an address bar, what we never do, and — the part that matters — what
to do if you have already typed your password into a copy of our sign-in
form. Change it, end every other session, change it wherever else you use it,
tell us. In that order.
Reachable without an account, deliberately: somebody who has just given their
password away is signed in nowhere, and the page they need cannot be behind
the thing they lost.
Linked from the three places a person is when the question comes up: every
mail footer (the mail is the vector), the sign-in form (this is the page a
phishing kit copies, so the real one says which host you are on), and the
site footer.
The domain list is DERIVED from configuration and keyed by what each domain
is for. A list typed into a page would eventually tell a customer that a
phishing domain is one of ours, or that one of ours is not — the same
two-sources-of-truth failure that had the price sheet promising an address on
a domain the company does not own. The operator console is deliberately
absent from it: naming it on a public page tells an attacker where to aim.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The domain page shipped with no access control at all: the `custom_domain`
plan feature was checked nowhere in the codebase, and every customer on
every package could point a domain at their instance. This is the owner's
rule, built as one authority that everything else asks.
Start impossible — not bookable, not upgradable, not offered
Team optional, via the `custom_domain` module
Business included, because the plan version carries the feature
Enterprise included, likewise
App\Services\Billing\CustomDomainAccess answers all of it: may this
contract use one, may it book the module, why not in words a customer can
be shown, what a downgrade would do to a domain they have, and — after a
change lands — making the state match. Read against the FROZEN plan
version, never today's catalogue, so a feature added to a package later
cannot reach into a contract signed before it.
Which packages cannot have one at all is an explicit list in
config/provisioning.php, beside the module's price. The catalogue cannot
answer it: plan versions model what a package HAS, and nothing models what
a package may BUY. Both available proxies are dishonest — "the lowest tier
on sale" hands the right to a grandfathered Start customer the day the
owner stops selling Start or adds something cheaper below it, and reading
it off `branding` would sell a domain to anyone allowed to upload a logo.
The config comment says so.
Enforced where it can be enforced today:
- BookAddon refuses the module, with the sentence the customer is shown.
GrantAddon now writes its synthetic order inside the transaction, so a
refusal cannot leave a paid order for a module nobody got.
- The portal drops the card where it cannot be booked and shows it as
included where the package carries it — no price, no button.
- Billing::purchase() re-checks, because a hidden button is markup.
- DowngradeCheck reports the consequence beside the blockers, so the
customer reads it above the button rather than after it: losing the
domain (Team -> Start), or the choice (Business -> Team, where keeping
it means booking the module).
- PlanChange::settleCustomDomain() applies it once a change lands: the
module stops being charged for and the instance goes back to its
platform address. It clears the whole domain, not only the verified
flag — clupilot:verify-domains re-reads every row that still has a
domain and a token, and would switch it back on the next night.
- The price sheet's own-domain row now reads dash / optional + price /
included, from the same authority; the three cell states already
existed and the view is unchanged.
STILL TO APPLY, ONCE THIS AND THE CUSTOM-DOMAIN BRANCH MEET — one line at
the top of App\Livewire\CustomDomain::mount(), which belongs to the other
session and is deliberately untouched here:
abort_unless(app(\App\Services\Billing\CustomDomainAccess::class)->allowsCustomer($this->customer()), 403);
routes/web.php is left alone for the same reason. The mount() guard covers
the route and the component both; a middleware would only repeat it.
Follow-ups, named rather than built:
- Nothing applies a plan change anywhere yet, so settleCustomDomain()
has no caller. Whoever builds that must call it after the new contract
opens, and must decide whether a booked module is carried onto the new
contract — enforce() cancels the booking on the contract it is given.
- Deactivation sets the state; it does not re-run provisioning. Traefik
and Nextcloud's trusted_domains still name the old address until
ConfigureDnsAndTls / ConfigureNextcloud run again.
- App\Support\Navigation still shows the Domain tab to every customer;
it can ask allowsCustomer() the same way.

── The 500 ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
"touch(): Utime failed: Operation not permitted", from BladeCompiler, on
every request for the affected view.
Blade compiles a view and then touch()es the compiled file to the source's
mtime. touch() with an explicit time needs ownership of the file. A compose
service without `user:` runs as ROOT — and queue, scheduler and reverb had
none — so the first worker to render a view wrote a root-owned compiled file
that the web process, as www-data, could never refresh again. The queue is
what renders mails, which is why this surfaced now.
queue, reverb and scheduler run as www-data. queue-provisioning stays root
and says why: it brings wg0 up and runs `wg set` for every peer change, which
needs NET_ADMIN on the running process. It renders no mail.
And update.sh normalises ownership at the END of a run as well as at the
start. The first call heals what a previous run left; the second heals what
this one made — `git checkout` rewrites the tree as the service account while
the old build is still serving.
── The panel that would not go away ─────────────────────────────────────────
The same 500 is why it kept coming back: every poll failed, the watcher
treats a failed request as "still restarting" (which it normally is), and the
overlay stayed up over a console nobody could then reach to find out why.
A restart is seconds. After two minutes of nothing the panel now says so and
offers a way out — for an operator only, behind the same flag as the step and
the log, so a customer on the 503 page is not shown a button suggesting they
can call the deployment off. A successful answer clears it again: one bad
minute must not leave a "something is wrong" notice sitting there for the
rest of the run.
Not an always-present close button. The deployment does not stop because
somebody dismissed a panel, and offering that at the wrong moment is a lie.

One boolean matrix was carrying three different kinds of statement, and it
made all three unreadable.
Updates, backup and monitoring were a tick in every column — a comparison
that compares nothing — and the same promises were repeated in a prose line
under the table. They are now stated once, above it, together with the
platform address in the shape a customer will actually type
(ihrefirma.<zone>, from the configured zone) rather than as the phrase
"eigene Subdomain", which said nothing and was modelled as though an own
domain replaced it. Provisioning issues both.
Support was two independent booleans on one axis, so enterprise — which
carries the SLA and not the priority flag — rendered "Bevorzugter Support —"
beside team's tick: the top plan looking worse than the middle one. It is
one row of levels now, and a plan with neither shows Standard, because
standard support is a level and not an absence.
A cell had two states, so a dash meant both "you cannot have this" and "you
can have this for nine euros". There are three now, and the middle one
quotes AddonCatalogue — which is also how the modules we have been selling
all along finally appear on the page at all. Nothing is invented: where we
sell no module for a missing feature, the cell stays a dash.
custom_domain joins the module list at the owner's figure so the two plans
without it can be quoted a price instead of told no.

Three things, all from trying to actually use the incident page.
── Where the later entries go ───────────────────────────────────────────────
The form only ever creates the first one, and nothing said so — so it looked
as though the stage had to be chosen up front and there was only a dropdown
for the impact. The field now says what it becomes ("wird untersucht") and
where the rest are added: on the incident itself, once it exists.
── Deleting ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Asked for in order to test the thing at all, and right. A whole incident can
now be removed, with its entries, behind a confirmation in the product's own
dialog (R23).
Deliberately not the same as editing an entry, which there is still no way to
do: an update is a statement made at a time, and rewriting one afterwards is
what the record exists to prevent. Removing the whole incident is a different
act — it is how a test entry, or one published against the wrong service, is
taken back, and it leaves nothing half-standing behind. A test holds that
distinction so the delete button does not quietly become an exception to it.
── The hosts, which nothing was watching ────────────────────────────────────
`hosts.last_seen_at` drove the health dot in the console and was written
exactly once, at onboarding — RegisterCapacity stamped it and that was the
only write in the codebase. So every host read "offline" thirty minutes after
it was added, permanently, and the dot meant nothing. It is also why host
reachability could not appear on the status page: it was never being measured.
PingHosts asks every host's API the cheapest question it answers, once a
minute, and stamps the timestamp on success. Failure writes nothing on
purpose: absence IS the signal, and a second column counting failures would be
a second version of the same fact.
The status page has a fifth component for it. Counts only — never a host name,
never an address; the page is world-readable and the estate is not public
information. A host between five and thirty minutes silent reads as degraded,
not as healthy: "stale" is one of three answers healthState() gives and it is
not the good one.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
── Where the status page gets its data ──────────────────────────────────────
Asked in as many words, and fairly: the page for maintaining incidents exists
(console → Betrieb → Störungen) and nothing anywhere said so. The page now
carries the answer at the top — what is written there appears publicly at
once, the four components measure themselves, and there is a link straight to
the live status page.
── Automatic updates, inside a window, switchable ───────────────────────────
Tick it and name the days and hours; leave it alone and nothing changes. The
button stays either way: manual is always possible, at any hour.
It leaves exactly the same request the button leaves — same file, same agent,
same run. A second path into a deployment would be a second set of rules to
keep in step with the first, and the automation must not be able to do what an
operator is prevented from doing by hand: it checks the same three things the
button is disabled by (agent alive, something released, nothing running).
Nothing guards against having already updated by hand, and nothing needs to:
an installation that is current has nothing available, so pressing the button
at four leaves the five o'clock window with nothing to do. That was the
owner's own question and it answers itself.
Defaults are Tuesday to Thursday, 05:00–06:00. Not Monday — the week starts
and every fault costs double. Not Friday — nobody wants to repair a deployment
on a Friday afternoon. Not three in the morning: if it goes wrong, the person
who has to fix it is asleep.
A window whose end is before its start wraps past midnight, because 23:00 to
02:00 is a reasonable thing to ask for and reading it as an empty range would
silently mean "never". Switched on with no weekday selected is refused rather
than corrected — it is a configuration that reads as working and does nothing.
The clock is the wall clock (R19): an operator who writes 05:00 means five in
the morning where they live, and a window that drifts by an hour twice a year
is a window nobody trusts.

Eine geschlossene Version konnte nie wieder in den Verkauf. Schlimmer: um
ein Paket zu ändern, musste die laufende Version zuerst beendet werden —
und wenn die Nachfolgerin dann nicht sofort veröffentlicht wurde, war das
Paket dauerhaft dunkel.
- PlanCatalogue::reopen() setzt available_until zurück auf null, über
schedule(), damit Family-Lock und Überlappungsprüfung dieselben bleiben.
Ein nie veröffentlichter Entwurf wird abgelehnt.
- PlanCatalogue::publish() übergibt eine laufende Version an ihre
Nachfolgerin (available_until = deren Start) statt die Überlappung
abzulehnen — unter demselben Lock, in derselben Transaktion. Nur die
unmittelbare Vorgängerin, und nur wenn es genau eine gibt.
- Konsole: Knopf „Wieder verkaufen", übersetzte Ablehnung statt der
englischen Ausnahme, und die Übergabe wird im Veröffentlichen-Formular
vorher angekündigt (Version und Zeitpunkt, ->local()).

Two things.
── The update screen, still opening twice ───────────────────────────────────
Reported again on 1.3.9, and the cause was not the one fixed in 1.3.8. The
agent consumes the request file BEFORE it resolves the release — deliberately,
because update.sh may kill the shell and a request left in place would loop —
and writes `state: running` only once it has decided to go ahead. In between,
the request is gone and the status does not say running yet, so the endpoint
honestly answers "nothing is running". The watcher read that as "the run has
finished" and reloaded the page: overlay on the click, gone a poll later, 503
after it.
The overlay now closes only once the server has BOTH confirmed a run and then
stopped reporting it. Before the confirmation, silence means the agent has not
got there yet. Bounded at twenty polls so a request the agent refuses does not
leave the console covered forever.
── Custom domains, proven and re-proven ─────────────────────────────────────
`custom_domain` was a free-text field and everything downstream believed it:
the proxy served it, the certificate was issued for it, Nextcloud trusted it.
Anyone who pointed any hostname at the platform got somebody else's files
under their own name.
The proof is a TXT record at _clupilot-challenge.<domain> holding a token only
this instance has. Nothing is served until it has been read. Every reader now
goes through Instance::address(), which is the one place the decision is
made — `custom_domain ?: subdomain` was the hole, written out four times.
It is re-read every night at 03:40, because a token checked once can be taken
straight back out and a domain that later lapses keeps resolving here. Three
consecutive misses before a live domain is withdrawn: one failed lookup is a
nameserver having a bad minute, and withdrawing takes a working Nextcloud off
its own address. The domain and its token stay on the row so the customer can
put the record back rather than start over.
Changing the domain mints a NEW token. Reusing it would let somebody who once
verified example.com claim any other domain later without touching its DNS —
the old record is still sitting there and only the value is compared.
The domain is changeable at any time, and removable. Fixing it once set was
considered and rejected: adding or moving an address is a proxy entry, a
certificate and one line in trusted_domains.

Audience line and note were LandingController::COPY, a hardcoded array
keyed on exactly the four plan keys the seed migration created — a plan
made under any other key rendered with no copy at all. They move onto
the family for the same reason the recommendation mark does: they are a
stance about the product line, not a capability that changes with a
price, so they must not be frozen per version.
Backfilled in the migration from the controller's own strings, so the
public page prints exactly what it printed a moment ago. A family with
no copy yet renders without the audience line rather than an empty gap.
Feature labels (managed_updates, daily_backups, ...) stay in the
controller: they name catalogue features, not individual plans, so
there is no per-plan or per-version place to hang an editable
customer-facing label without re-introducing a shared feature table.
That table existed once and was deliberately removed when the plan
catalogue closed its pricing split-brain; bringing it back for wording
alone is a bigger, separate decision.
Reported as "logo and font are different everywhere" — maintenance page,
customer panel, console, homepage. They were. Counting them up: the site
header set the name in ink at -0.02em, the sidebar split it into "Clu" plus
an orange "Pilot", the sign-in plate set it white at a third size, the
customer two-factor page set it in MONO with no mark at all, the error pages
and the placeholder each inlined their own — and the maintenance screen had
no wordmark whatsoever. Nine surfaces, seven ideas of the brand.
There is one now: resources/views/components/ui/brand.blade.php. Mark plus
wordmark in one piece, in ink, with an optional muted "Cloud". No orange half
— that made the accent a permanent fixture instead of something used
sparingly. The four places that cannot use a Blade component (the two
self-contained pages, the error layout, the mail layout) inline it and are
held to the same shape by a test.
The typeface. The console loads IBM Plex through Vite; the 503 page has no
stylesheet at all, so the maintenance screen — the one page shown when
somebody is already worried — was rendering in the system sans. It declares
the fonts itself now. And the bold weight was missing from public/fonts
entirely: the placeholder and the error pages both asked for
ibm-plex-sans-latin-700-normal.woff2, which was not there. A @font-face
pointing at nothing fails silently, which is why nobody noticed.
The error pages carried the same two faults the placeholder shipped with: an
empty gradient tile where the mark belongs, and `gap` on an inline-flex row
spacing "Clu", "Pilot" and "Cloud" apart as three separate words.
And the price sheet promised "Adresse auf clupilot.cloud" — a domain the
company does not own — while provisioning was issuing addresses under
whatever CLUPILOT_DNS_ZONE says. It is assembled from that setting now, the
same reason the prices are read from the catalogue rather than typed into the
page.
welcome.blade.php removed: Laravel's leftover, reachable from no route.

Recommended lives on the plan family, not a version: it is a stance about
the product line ("which plan we point a visitor towards"), not a
capability that changes with a price, and freezing it per version would
make the mark silently vanish every time a new version publishes.
Setting a plan recommended clears whichever other plan carried the mark,
inside one transaction locking the whole table — two operators
recommending two different plans at once must not both win. The public
price sheet already had the highlighted-card treatment for this (it was
driven by a hardcoded "team" constant); it now reads the family instead.
Two complaints, both correct, both mine.
Dark blue. The panel carried a `prefers-color-scheme: dark` block — the only
one in a product that has no dark mode. On a phone set to dark the update
screen, and nothing else, turned dark blue. A dark mode for one page is not a
dark mode; it is one page that does not match. It is gone.
And even in daylight the panel was not this product's colours: it used
Tailwind's slate ramp (#0f172a, #64748b, #e2e8f0), which is blue-tinted,
against neutrals that are warm. Every value is now a copy of a token from
portal-tokens.css, with the comment saying so, because this file cannot
import them — it renders when the asset build may not exist.
The small window then the big one. The settings card grew its own little
"läuft gerade" block the instant a run started; up to three seconds later the
full-page overlay covered it and said the same thing in a different size. The
card no longer says it at all, and the overlay now opens on the button's own
click — requestUpdate dispatches an event, but only once a run is actually
pending, so a refused second press does not black out the console.
Two more things found while looking:
The panel had `min-height: 100%`, which resolves against the parent's height.
On the 503 page the parent is <body>, whose height is auto — so it computed
to zero, the panel was only as tall as its text, and the bottom two thirds of
the screen stayed the browser's default white. Viewport units now, dvh so a
phone's collapsing address bar leaves no strip either.
And the mark was a plain orange tile again, the same empty-square that was
just fixed on the placeholder. The real logo is inlined.

Reported from a phone on status.clupilot.com, which serves this page because
the site is still switched to private.
Two real defects behind the complaint:
The wordmark read "Clu Pilot Cloud". `gap` on a flex container applies
between EVERY child and a bare text node is a child — so an inline-flex row
wrapped around "Clu", <i>Pilot</i> and " Cloud" put nine pixels between each
of them. The wordmark is one element now and the gap only ever separates it
from the mark.
The logo was a plain gradient tile with nothing in it, which reads as an
image that failed to load. That is a poor thing to leave somebody with on a
page whose whole message is "we are building this properly". The real mark —
cloud plus autopilot ascent — is inlined; it has to be in the file because
this page renders when the asset build may not exist at all.
The redesign itself: the card is gone. The page is now a centred composition
on the open ground — the state as a pill above everything, the mark, the
headline at the size the rest of the site uses, and the three promises the
paragraph was already making set as their own line so there is something to
look at besides one block of text. One warm bloom behind it, drawn as a
gradient rather than a blurred disc, which banded into visible rings.
Still self-contained, and still the only page exempt from the shared
stylesheet: it is served mid-deploy and on a fresh install, where @vite would
throw instead of rendering the reassurance somebody came for.

Asked for after looking at how real ones are built. The shape they all share
is a convention, and a convention is what lets somebody find the answer
without being taught the page: banner, components each with ninety days of
uptime, then the written record underneath. This page had only the banner —
the version that is of no use the morning after, because "Alle Dienste in
Betrieb" is true and says nothing to somebody who was locked out the evening
before.
Three things are new.
The ninety-day bar. It cannot be reconstructed after the fact: the monitoring
table holds the last verdict per instance, not a history. So a sampler
(clupilot:sample-status, every five minutes beside the monitoring sync)
writes counts into one row per component per day, and the page divides them.
A day with no row is drawn as a gap and says "nicht aufgezeichnet" — never
green. Degraded samples count as reachable in the percentage but still colour
the day: folding them into downtime reports a slow morning as an outage,
ignoring them loses the only trace of it.
The incident record. An operator reports a disruption in the console, posts
updates as it develops, and the entry that says "behoben" is the same action
that closes it — two separate steps is how a page ends up with a resolved
note under an incident that still reports as ongoing. There is deliberately
no way to edit an update: it is a statement made at a time, corrections are a
further entry. An open incident may make a component look worse than the
probes found it, never better.
Scheduled maintenance, from the windows the console already keeps rather than
a second list somebody has to remember to fill in.
The measurement moved out of the controller into ServiceHealth, shared with
the sampler, so the banner and the bars cannot disagree about what "healthy"
means.
The page now uses the shared design system and the site's header and footer.
Its self-contained stylesheet was there to survive a broken asset build; it
does not survive one — if the stylesheet cannot be served the application
serving this page is already failing, and mid-deployment every route answers
with the maintenance page. What the exemption bought was a third design
nobody maintained.
Found while building: durationMinutes had its operands the wrong way round,
and diffInMinutes is signed, so the public page printed "Dauer -86 Minuten".

GrantPlan is a modal (R20), opened from a "Schenken" button on the customer's
own row in Admin\Customers, gated by customers.grant_plan rather than merely
hidden. It offers a whole package (plan, term, datacenter, an optional quota
bonus baked into the frozen snapshot) or a module on an existing contract,
either free or at a discount the operator sets against today's catalogue
price. Existing grants show on the same modal — who gave what, when, and
until when — with a warning once a dated grant is nearing its end; nothing
lapses on its own, exactly as decided.
The customers list also badges a granted plan in the Paket column.
IssueInvoice now rejects free-grant orders before it will consume an invoice
number for them — a full gift produces no invoice at all, while a discounted
grant still charges something and is invoiced exactly like an ordinary sale.
Keyed on the linked subscription/add-on's own provenance, not on the amount
being zero, so a genuinely fully-discounted Stripe checkout is unaffected.
Revenue excludes granted contracts from MRR/ARR/ARPU and the contracts count
— a gift at 0 must not drag the average down — and shows their number as its
own KPI instead of folding it in, since the owner measures himself on it.
The portal (Cloud, Billing) shows a granted package or module without a
price at all: not "free", not struck through, just the service, so a later
conversion to paid does not read as a negotiation.
A grant is an order without money, not a second code path: GrantSubscription
and GrantAddon create the same Order/Subscription/SubscriptionAddon rows a
paid purchase does, with stripe_subscription_id left null and price_cents set
to whatever the customer actually pays. OpenSubscription and BookAddon gained
an optional overrides parameter so the price and provenance (who granted it,
when, a note, an optional end date, and the catalogue price for legibility)
land on the same snapshot every real purchase goes through, not a duplicate.
New customers.grant_plan capability, Owner-only like secrets.manage — giving
away service is exactly the kind of blast radius that precedent reserves for
the Owner.
Correctly rejected: the last pass was the old page in new paint. It kept the
skeleton — eight numbered sections, a split hero, a twelve-row comparison
matrix — and changed only the palette. A palette is not a design.
What is actually different now:
- The § numbering is gone. Numbered sections with a drawn rule are a document
convention, and the document voice is exactly what the product's design
system dropped.
- The hero shows the product instead of describing it: centred type, then a
wide panel built from the real console's own tokens, cropped by the section
below. The old hero put a table of facts beside the headline, so a visitor
read two columns before seeing anything.
- Six identical cards, then six more, then six more became one asymmetric
grid — a large panel, a dark tile, an accent tile, a wide module row — so
the important thing is allowed to be bigger than the rest.
- The industries are one dense two-column list instead of six cards repeating
each other's shape.
- The page has one dark hinge in the middle (the deployment) rather than a
dark section among seven light ones.
- The evidence table became rows that pair the measure with the piece of
paper you can hand somebody, which is what it is for.
- Prices are cards, with the full matrix folded away underneath. The matrix
used to be the first thing a visitor met: twelve rows of ticks before a
single price was legible.
- The FAQ heading sits still while the questions scroll past it.
- The footer is a real footer.
The header is a floating bar rather than a full-width band, and opaque in
both states — translucency plus backdrop-blur reads as a rendering fault over
the dark panels that scroll under it.

Reported plainly: the site is still in the old style. It was — it was the
last of the three surfaces the token file describes that had never been
converted. landing.blade.php carried its own complete design system inside a
<style> block: warm paper, IBM Plex Serif headlines, 3px corners, its own
scale of greys, written before the tokens existed. Somebody who clicked
"Anmelden" left one company and arrived at another.
The page now draws from resources/css/portal-tokens.css like the portal and
the console: same surfaces, same radii, same button hierarchy, same
small-caps label, one family at weight 700 instead of a serif. What still
differs is rhythm, which is what a marketing page is allowed to differ in.
Content is unchanged. New: components/layouts/site.blade.php holds the header
and footer for every public page, and legal.blade.php uses it too — the
imprint used to be a stranded card in a third style again.
Two things found on the way:
- .lbl set `color: var(--muted)`, which is not a token. An undefined var() in
`color` computes to `unset`, so every small-caps label on every surface was
whatever colour its container happened to be.
- The big figures were set in mono. Mono gives the decimal comma a full glyph
cell, so "99,95" read as three separate numbers.
coming-soon and the status page stay self-contained on purpose — both are
served when the application may not have a built stylesheet at all.

Asked for directly: "später wenn ich etwas lokal erweitere will ich mich
nicht auf alle adminseiten einloggen müssen und extra rsync installieren".
An update runs as the service account, so anything root-owned on the host is
out of its reach and turns into "log into every server once and paste this".
The obvious fix — sudo on deploy/install-agent.sh — is not a grant at all:
the service account owns the checkout and can rewrite the very script it
would be allowed to run as root.
So the privileged part is written OUT of the checkout by install-agent.sh, to
/usr/local/sbin/clupilot-host-step, root:root 0755, from a quoted
here-document. The service account cannot influence a byte of it. sudoers
names one exact command line including its argument, so a step added to the
helper later is not covered by a grant written before it existed, and the
helper refuses anything not on its own list as well.
update.sh uses it only when rsync is actually missing, after the restart and
never fatally: the archive is collected hours later, and an update that died
over a package would be the bigger problem. A helper older than the steps the
updater wants is reported through the existing one-time-setup hint — silently
doing nothing is worse than an error.
Existing servers still need `sudo bash deploy/install-agent.sh` once, because
that is the run that puts the helper there. After it, they do not.

Reported from live: pressing update showed a blue panel first, which then
vanished and was replaced by a completely different "we are updating"
screen. Both were mine. The console drew its own overlay in the app's light
tokens; a moment later the containers went down and Laravel's 503 page took
over with its own standalone styling. One event, two faces, swapping while
an operator watches.
There is now one panel — resources/views/partials/updating-panel.blade.php —
rendered by both. It carries its own inline CSS and cpu- prefixed class
names because the 503 page is served with the application down: no compiled
stylesheet, no Tailwind, nothing but what is in that file. Dark mode comes
from prefers-color-scheme for the same reason.
The operator detail (step, running since, log tail) rides inside the panel
behind a flag, since the same file is shown to customers on the 503 page.

Setting a NAS up to collect the invoice archive meant three machines and a
dozen commands: generate a keypair there, carry the public half to the server,
write it into authorized_keys with a restriction, install rsync, and get every
path right on the first try. Every one of those steps was a place to be told
"permission denied" with no clue which of the three was wrong. It was, and
several times over.
One button now. The panel asks, the host does it — because the host is where
all of it lives: the home directory, ssh-keygen, rrsync, and the archive itself.
The panel is www-data in a container and owns none of that, so it uses the
mailbox it already uses for updates. The private half is shown exactly once,
alongside the finished rsync command, and is never written to the database: it
exists to be copied into a NAS, and storing it "for convenience" would put a
working credential in every backup of that database.
rrsync does the restricting, not a pinned rsync option string. That string
differs between rsync versions and fails silently — a refusal with no reason
given, which is the shape of the afternoon this replaces. If rrsync is missing
the agent refuses rather than issuing an unrestricted key while the panel says
it is restricted.
rsync now comes with install-agent.sh, which already runs as root once per
machine. It has to be on the HOST: a NAS connects by ssh and sshd starts
`rsync --server` here, so without it the pull fails with "command not found"
from a NAS whose own setup is perfectly correct.

Reported as "the folder arrives empty". It was not empty. The folder was 0700
and owned by the account that wrote it, so the account that COLLECTS — an rsync
over ssh, a backup agent, anything that is not the writer — could not enter it,
and an unreadable directory looks exactly like an empty one. The invoice had
been sitting in it the whole time.
The cause is that the default follows the process umask, so under a restrictive
one 0755 quietly becomes 0700. The permissions are declared on the disk now
rather than left to inherit, and a test writes under umask 0077 and asserts the
mode — the ordinary umask hides this completely, which is why it was found on a
server and not here.
Two mistakes of mine on the way to it, both worth recording. I read the folder
as the wrong user, got no entries back, and concluded the file had been deleted
— it was a permission failure reading as an unprivileged account, not a missing
file. And the first fix was a chmod on a variable that does not exist in that
method, silenced by an @ so it failed without a word. Flysystem takes its
permissions from configuration; a chmod afterwards was the wrong layer even
before it was the wrong variable.

Everything was built — numbering, the frozen snapshot, the PDF, the mail, the
archive and its retention — and none of it was connected to anything. IssueInvoice
was called from nowhere but its own tests. So on a real server no invoice had
ever been created, the handover directory was empty, and rsync was correctly
copying nothing. Reported as "nothing gets copied", which it was.
One mail, not two. The invoice is issued the moment the payment lands, so an
order confirmation and an invoice mail would otherwise go out in the same second
for the same event — a defect rather than a preference. The invoice mail carries
the document and says everything the confirmation said, so it replaces it
whenever there is an invoice; the confirmation stays for when there cannot be
one.
Issuing is allowed to fail without taking the purchase with it. IssueInvoice
refuses while the company details are incomplete, and that refusal is correct —
an invoice without a registered name or a VAT number is not a valid invoice, and
issuing one consumes a number that can never be handed out again. The order
still stands, the machine is still built, and the invoice can be issued later.
Nothing here may throw at the webhook either: Stripe retries anything that is
not a 2xx, and a retry would re-enter provisioning and build a second machine
over a missing VAT number.

Two destinations doing two jobs. A handover directory a NAS collects from wants
a folder per day and wants emptying — thirty days is enough to notice a NAS that
stopped collecting, and keeping more only hides it. An archive on the NAS itself
wants a folder per year and wants nothing deleted, ever. So both are per
destination rather than global.
Deleting is safe here in a way it usually is not, and that is worth saying
plainly: the invoice is a frozen document in the database and its PDF is
rendered from that on demand. Nothing is moved anywhere — it is copied, and
anything removed from a directory can be produced again and re-exported. The
directory is a handover point, not the record.
keep_days is null by default and stays null unless somebody sets it: a retention
rule nobody asked for is a deletion nobody expected. The prune only touches
folders whose NAME is one of the two shapes this application writes, and leaves
everything else alone — a prune that deletes what it does not recognise is how
an archive loses something nobody was watching. It also skips a destination
whose path is missing rather than acting on whatever is underneath an absent
mountpoint.
The shape is matched with a pattern before parsing rather than by handing
nonsense to Carbon: under strict mode createFromFormat throws instead of
returning false, so one folder somebody made by hand would have ended the whole
prune instead of being skipped. The test with a foreign folder in it found that.

The first version put it in the credential vault. The vault refuses it, and
correctly: it keeps a registry of fixed, documented credentials so the Secrets
page can describe each one, and a per-destination password is not that. Forcing
a dynamic key into that registry would have made the registry meaningless.
Encrypted onto the row with the same cipher instead — the same key, so it is no
more readable in a database dump than anything the vault holds, and it lives
with the record it describes. A rotated SECRETS_KEY now says so by name rather
than surfacing as an authentication failure against a host that is perfectly
fine.
Also answers the question that prompted this: the host, port and user fields are
there, and appear once SFTP is chosen. A mounted directory has no host on
purpose — the mount is made on the server with mount(8), and the application
only names the directory it writes into. A test asserts both halves, because
"the fields are there, you just cannot see them yet" is not something anybody
should have to take on trust.

One path and one exported_at could not say "on the office NAS, not yet on the
off-site box" — which is the only interesting question once there is more than
one destination, and the reason for a second is precisely that any single one
can fail. A row per destination now, and a row per (invoice, destination) pair.
Two kinds, and the difference is where the protocol lives. 'local' is a
directory this machine can already write to: a NAS mounted over NFS 4.1, a bind
mount, a disk. The application knows nothing about the protocol, the target
changes without code changing with it, and the whole thing stays testable
against a temporary directory. 'sftp' is for something reachable with
credentials — a Hetzner Storage Box being the obvious one — and the password
goes into the secret vault with only its key on the row, because a credential
in a settings table is a credential in every database dump. An empty password
field on an existing target means unchanged, not cleared: the field cannot show
what is stored, so blank-means-delete would wipe it on every unrelated edit.
One job per pair rather than one per invoice. A job writing to both would retry
the one that worked every time the other did not, and report one outcome for
two different things.
The ordering fix the tests found: Laravel's local adapter creates its root when
it is CONSTRUCTED, so the "never create the root" guard was checking a
directory the disk had just made for it. It runs before the disk is built now.
That guard is the difference between an archive and a hole in the ground — mkdir
on an absent mountpoint succeeds, writes onto the container's own disk and
reports success, and an archive that silently is not the archive is worse than
none.
The single path from the previous commit is migrated into a destination called
"Archiv" rather than dropped.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The application knows nothing about NFS and should not. It writes to a
directory; whether that is a local disk, a bind mount or a NAS over NFS 4.1
belongs to the mount. No protocol library, the target changes without code
changing with it, and the whole thing is testable against a temp directory.
The finding that shaped it: mkdir -p on a path whose mount is NOT there
succeeds. It creates the empty directory beneath the mountpoint, writes the
invoice onto the container's own disk and reports success — so an unmounted NAS
would quietly collect invoices locally while every check said it worked. An
archive that silently is not the archive is worse than none. The root is
therefore never created, only used: a missing root means a missing mount, and
that is a failure. Only the year subdirectory is created, inside a root already
proven to exist.
Written to a .part and renamed. A rename within one filesystem is atomic, so
whatever watches that folder never sees a truncated PDF and takes it for a
finished invoice. The size is read back afterwards rather than the write being
trusted: over a network mount a short write can report success, and an archive
of truncated files looks exactly like one that worked.
Queued, not done during the request. A network mount can block for its whole
timeout, and an invoice must not fail to be issued because a NAS is rebooting.
Dispatched after the commit, or a worker could look for an invoice that has not
landed yet.
And copy-on-issue is not enough on its own: an invoice issued while the office
connection was down never arrives, the queue eventually gives up, and nobody
opens an archive to check whether last Tuesday is in it. An hourly sweep
re-queues whatever is still missing, the failure is recorded on the invoice
rather than only in a log, and the Finance page says how many are outstanding.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Read-only by design, and the absence is the feature: an issued invoice is
corrected by cancelling it and issuing another, which is the only lawful way to
correct one. There is no edit button here whose absence needs explaining, and a
test asserts there is none.
The PDF is a plain route rather than a Livewire action. A download is a
download, and routing one through a component round-trip only adds a way for it
to fail.
Two findings on the way, and both were mine.
The year filter used YEAR() in raw SQL, which is MySQL's. SQLite has no such
function, so the page worked against the real database and threw against the
test one — a query that only runs on one engine makes the test database a
different product from the one being shipped. The years are derived in PHP now.
And a test put a User on the operator guard, where EnsureAdmin calls isActive()
on it and a 403 becomes a 500. Not a code defect: actingAs() calls
Auth::shouldUse(), so a second actingAs() in the same test with no guard named
lands on whichever guard the FIRST one named. That trap is written up in
CLAUDE.md, I quoted it earlier today, and I walked into it anyway. The tests are
split now and both name their guard.

The PDF is rendered when the mail goes out rather than fetched from anywhere,
because nothing stores it — and rendering from the frozen snapshot means the
attachment is the document as issued no matter when the queue gets to it or how
often it retries. fromData rather than fromPath: there is no path.
Three attempts at testing it, and the first two were wrong in ways worth
recording. Attachment::$data does not exist — the closure lives in a protected
$resolver, and reaching for it was me testing the framework's internals rather
than my own code. And a byte comparison of the PDF cannot work at all: TCPDF
embeds a creation time and a document id, so two renders of one invoice differ.
Split into the two things that can actually go wrong. The mail carries an
attachment with the right filename and type — that is metadata, and it is
asserted as metadata. And the renderer produces a real PDF rather than an empty
one, asserted where the renderer is, because an attachment closure that returns
nothing still makes a perfectly valid mail with a nought-byte file on it.

One invoice per purchase rather than per order: a customer who buys a plan and
two add-ons in one go has bought once, and three invoices for one purchase is
three times the paperwork for the same money. Each order becomes a line, which
is also how the add-ons get listed individually.
Everything the document says is copied into the snapshot at the moment the
number is assigned — issuer, recipient, lines, rate, the reason for the rate.
A test changes the company name and the customer name afterwards and asserts
the invoice still says what it said. That is the whole reason no PDF is stored.
The number and the invoice commit in one transaction. A number taken and then
lost to a failure is a gap in a series that must not have one, and the refusal
test asserts that a rejected invoice leaves the counter where it was.
It refuses outright until the company details are complete. An invoice without
a registered name, an address or a VAT number is not a valid invoice here, and
issuing one consumes a number that can never be handed out again.
VAT comes from TaxTreatment, which already existed and already handles a
verified EU VAT ID correctly — including the reverse-charge note, without which
a zero-rated invoice says nothing about why no VAT was charged.
The billing address is carried as the lines it was written as. It is one
free-text field today, and guessing which line is the postcode would put it
where the street belongs, on a document nobody can correct afterwards.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Finance tab wrote a rate into settings while TaxTreatment kept reading one
from config — two sources for one number, added by me two commits ago. It had
not bitten yet only because both happened to say 20.
TaxTreatment now takes the domestic rate from CompanyProfile, which falls back
to the .env-derived config until an operator saves one. Same shape as
ProvisioningSettings, which already solves this for the deployment values, and
the same reason: an operator can change a settings page and cannot change a
config value, so a page that appears to set the rate and does not is worse than
no page at all.
Reverse charge and the seller country stay where they are. That logic already
existed, already handles a verified EU VAT ID correctly, and nothing here
needed to know about it — which is exactly why it should not have been
duplicated.

Second correction to the same block, and this one came from the right place: a
line reading 202,50 beside "Rabatt 10 %" does not say whether the discount is
in that number or still to come. It was unreadable, and unreadable on the one
figure a customer checks.
Lines are at full price now. Discounts are still entered per line — that is
where they belong and where somebody decides them — but they are summed and
shown once, in euros, under a subtotal that the "Gesamt netto" column adds up
to. Subtotal, one subtraction, VAT, total: a sum anybody can follow without
being told which figures are already adjusted.
The gross line-total column is gone and a gross UNIT price takes its place.
Full-price gross totals would sum to 315,60 against a total of 288,60 — the
same contradiction in a different column. Nobody adds up unit prices, and a
consumer reading this wants to know what one of the things costs.
lineTotal() and adjustmentLabel() went with it. Nothing calls them any more,
and a helper kept for a layout that no longer exists is the next person's
wrong turn.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
With one discount applied under the table, the gross column summed to 315,60
against a total of 284,04. Nothing was miscalculated — the discount simply came
after — but a reader who adds up a column found a document that does not agree
with itself, and no way to tell which figure was the real one. On an invoice
that is not a presentation detail.
A discount or surcharge now sits on its line, percentage or fixed amount, and
is inside that line's total. The label under the line is built from the same
value that did the arithmetic, so the words cannot end up describing a
different number than the one printed beside them.
The invoice-wide adjustment stays in the arithmetic for anything that genuinely
applies to the whole document, but nothing uses it by default.

Everything the console has no field for is still real — MAIL_*, DB_*,
APP_KEY, whichever key nobody has built a form for yet — and without a way to
touch it from here, the operator needs a shell and the console page misses
its own point. EnvFileEditor is the net, not just the warning:
1. Validates before writing. A line that is neither blank, nor a comment, nor
KEY=value is rejected outright, and an empty file (syntactically "valid" by
that rule, but not survivable) is refused too. write() never touches the
file before checking the new content.
2. Backs up before every write that actually happens — a timestamped copy
beside .env, before the new content lands. Never pruned automatically; the
page says so, next to where it says where they land.
3. Names the keys a mistake here can lock an operator out with — APP_KEY,
DB_*, REDIS_*, SESSION_* — rather than a blanket warning nobody reads.
4. Gated by secrets.manage and the same confirmed password the vault entries
use — this is the one place on the page that can reach every credential
the vault otherwise keeps write-only.
5. Says plainly what saving does not do: queue, queue-provisioning, scheduler
and reverb only read .env at their own startup, and names the restart
command plus config:clear.
6. Marks which .env keys SecretVault currently overrides, so editing a line
that a stored vault value already shadows does not look broken.
Two issues surfaced by Codex review and fixed before this commit: the raw
file content stayed in the Livewire component snapshot after the password
confirmation window expired on its own (not only on an explicit re-lock), and
the first save on an installation with no .env yet failed trying to back up a
file that was never there.

Zugangsdaten and Infrastruktur split the same subject by storage mechanism —
SecretVault vs App\Support\Settings — instead of by what each field
configures, which is not a distinction an operator setting up Stripe or DNS
should have to know or care about. One page now, grouped by integration:
Zahlungen (Stripe), DNS (Hetzner), Monitoring, VPN/WireGuard, SSH-Identität. A
secret and a plain setting sit side by side within a section; the difference
stays visible — a vault entry is write-only and shows only an outline, a
setting shows its value in full — as a property of the field, not a reason
for a separate page.
Both storage mechanisms are unchanged underneath: this is a presentation
change, not a data migration. The vault keeps its own gate (secrets.manage +
a recently confirmed password); plain settings keep theirs (hosts.manage
alone). Reachable with either capability, since the two are no longer two
pages a role happens to see one, both, or neither of — every section and
every save action still checks its own capability server-side.
admin.secrets and admin.infrastructure redirect here permanently rather than
404ing a bookmark. The nav entry that replaces both is visible to either
capability — Navigation's capability field now accepts an array meaning "any
of these", not only a single ability.

TCPDF 6, deliberately, after installing 7 and finding out what it is. Version 7
is not a newer TCPDF; it is a compatibility shim over tc-lib-pdf whose own
mapping table lists 115 of 293 methods as stubs, and whose font package ships
no font files at all — the first render died on a missing helvetica.json. The
6.x line carries a hundred and sixty-five fonts, a working writeHTML and real
header and footer hooks, and is what everybody means by TCPDF.
The body is a Blade template handed to writeHTML rather than a hundred Cell()
calls with millimetre coordinates, because this table has to be adjusted the
first time somebody sees it on paper, and nobody adjusts the second kind.
InvoiceMath is integer cents end to end, and rounds once. A percentage applied
line by line and rounded each time drifts from the same percentage applied to
the sum — three lines at 3,33 € less 10 % is 99 cents that way and 100 cents
the honest way, and the customer's calculator is what finds it. Gross is always
derived from net and never the reverse: taking VAT back out of a gross figure
returns a different number often enough to matter. A discount and a surcharge
are one operation with opposite signs, so nothing has to remember which of two
flags means which.
Quantities are thousandths, because hours, gigabytes and part-months are all
real, and are printed with the trailing zeroes stripped — "12,000 Std." reads
as a defect.
Every line shows quantity, unit price net, total net AND total gross: this goes
to businesses and to consumers, and each reads a different column first.
Verifying it took two goes and both failures were mine. `strings` over a PDF set
in a Unicode font finds nothing, because the text is stored as subset glyph ids
— the check has to render in a core font to be a check at all. And two of the
strings I then declared missing were simply expectations I had got wrong.

SITE_HOST takes a comma-separated list now, the first name canonical. It serves
the site; every other name in the list redirects there permanently, path and
query intact. An apex domain and its www are two names for one thing, and
answering on both without picking one splits search rankings and cookies
between them.
The redirect is a host-bound catch-all rather than middleware. Middleware that
only some routes carry is the same half-measure this file already made once,
and a catch-all registered without a host would swallow every path in the
application — which is what the third test is there to stop.
The test harness needed fixing too, and the fix is the finding. Router::dispatch
on a standalone router does not rebind the container's request, so a route
reading one — through the helper OR through an injected parameter, both of which
resolve from the container — gets the test's request rather than the one being
answered. The redirect silently lost its query string in the test while working
in production. dispatchOn() binds it where the framework would.

Its own tab rather than a section of Settings, as asked. What is set here
appears on a legal document, and burying it beside the site-visibility switch
invites somebody to change one in passing.
Everything the printed invoice needs — registered name, address, Firmenbuch
number and court, VAT ID, bank details, payment terms, logo — with the logo
replaceable, because a company changes its mark. None of it reaches an invoice
that already exists: the values are copied into each document when its number
is assigned, so a corrected address is correct from the next one onwards and
cannot rewrite an old one.
The console refuses to consider itself ready while a name, an address or a VAT
number is missing, and says which. An invoice without them is not a valid
invoice in Austria, and issuing one is worse than refusing to.
The series editor carries the same shape as EditDatacenter and for the same
reason. The prefix is free while the series is empty and frozen once a document
carries it: changing RE to AR renames nothing and leaves a series whose past
says RE and whose future says AR, with no record they belong together. The
counter may be raised — an operator migrating from another system needs exactly
that — but never lowered, because a lower number is one already printed on a
document somebody holds. Both rules are recomputed from the database on save
rather than read back from the properties the browser returns.
CompanyProfile drops keys that are not part of the profile. It is fed from a
form, and a forged key must not be able to write an arbitrary setting into the
same table the site-visibility switch lives in.

The previous release bound the landing page and stopped there. The website duly
vanished from the portal — and the portal stayed reachable from the website:
www.clupilot.com/dashboard, /login, /settings all kept working. Half a
separation is no separation, and it was reported back within the hour.
APP_HOST binds every portal route, Fortify's own POST actions included through
fortify.domain — a sign-in form on the website's hostname would otherwise post
to a route that answers there. SITE_HOST now takes the legal pages and
robots.txt with the landing page rather than leaving them everywhere; binding
them is also what makes route('legal.impressum') produce a www URL from inside
a queued mail, where there is no request to take a hostname from.
There is no clever middleware here and there should not be. Route::domain() is
the mechanism: a route registered for one host does not exist on another, and a
request for it gets the 404 it deserves. The only deliberate exception is "/" on
the portal host, which redirects to the dashboard or the sign-in page — that is
what people type from memory, and turning it into an error page to make a point
about hostnames helps nobody. The Stripe webhook and /up stay host-agnostic:
Stripe posts to whichever URL it was given, and a mismatch there loses payments.
Both are opt-in and empty by default, which every development machine reached
by a bare IP depends on.
The tests now check BOTH directions for every path rather than only the one
that was reported. That is the mistake this commit exists to correct.

An invoice is a tax document, so two things drive the shape of this.
It is frozen at issue. Everything the finished document says — issuer address,
VAT number, bank details, customer address, every line, the rate, the totals —
is copied into the invoice row when the number is assigned. The PDF is rendered
from that and never stored, which is what was asked for; rendering it from
today's settings instead would have been simpler and wrong, because an address
changed in 2028 would rewrite an invoice from 2026. The width of this table IS
the feature.
Numbers are gapless and ascending, which is a legal requirement rather than a
preference, and that is why none of it is derived from the invoices table.
"Highest number plus one" hands the same number to two sales that land together
and hands a used number back out after a row is removed — a number already
printed on a document somebody holds. The counter is a column, read and advanced
under a row lock inside the caller's transaction, and taking one outside a
transaction throws rather than quietly working.
Four Rechnungskreise seeded — Rechnung, Gutschrift, Storno, Anzahlung — each
with its own prefix and its own counter, because a credit note is not an
invoice with a minus sign in front of it. Seeded rather than left to the
operator: an installation with no series cannot issue anything, and discovering
that at the first sale is the worst possible moment.
TCPDF added, for the renderer that comes next.
There is deliberately no test for the outside-a-transaction guard, and a note
where it would have been: RefreshDatabase opens a transaction around every
test, so the guard cannot fire and a green test for it would be green for a
reason that has nothing to do with the guard.

The SSH private key CluPilot deploys to every host is now stored through
SecretVault (ssh.private_key), preferred over CLUPILOT_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY(_PATH)
at all three real consumers — SshTraefikWriter and HostStep::keyLogin.
kuma.password/kuma.totp stay in .env: they authenticate a separate Python
container at boot, and nothing in this app reads them, so the vault would
have nothing to wire them to.
A new /admin/infrastructure page, backed by App\Support\ProvisioningSettings,
makes the non-secret deployment settings that used to force a shell —
DNS zone, WireGuard hub endpoint and public key, Traefik's dynamic-config
path, the SSH public key, and the monitoring bridge URL — visible and
editable from the console, each wired to every real consumer. WG subnet/hub
IP and Kuma's own connection details stay in .env: the compose file and a
separate container read those before this application ever does.
Two of the Zugangsdaten page's three entries were decorative: whatever an
operator typed was encrypted and stored, but HttpHetznerDnsClient and
HttpMonitoringClient still read config() directly, so the stored value never
reached an outgoing request. Both now resolve through SecretVault::get() at
the point of use, matching how the Stripe client already worked.
The landing page was registered host-agnostically, so app.clupilot.com served
it: marketing copy, a pricing table and a "sign up" call to action, at the
address where a customer's servers live. Reported exactly that way.
SITE_HOST binds the website to its own hostname. Every other host — the portal,
a bare IP — answers "/" with the product: the dashboard for somebody signed in,
the sign-in page for everybody else. Never a 404 there: "/" is what people type
from memory, and turning that into an error page to make a point about
hostnames helps nobody. Empty keeps today's behaviour, which every development
machine reached by IP depends on.
The console is unaffected — its routes are registered first and win on their
own host, the ordering the status page above already documents.
The legal pages are deliberately not bound. An imprint has to be reachable from
wherever the reader is standing, and a mail footer links to it from whichever
host sent the mail.
Also drops "just reply to this message" from two mails. A reply lands in the
billing or provisioning mailbox rather than in the support queue somebody
actually works through — so it now says to raise it in the portal, where it
gets a place in that queue instead of getting lost.

Four templates, one layout. Two of them — the maintenance announcement and its
cancellation — still wore Laravel's markdown component, which brings its own
logo, its own button and its own footer: the product was sending mail that
looked like two different companies, one of which was the framework.
New: an order confirmation, sent when the payment lands rather than when
provisioning finishes. Those are minutes apart at best and can be much longer,
and somebody who has just been charged and heard nothing assumes the worst
about both the charge and the product. It deliberately promises no time for the
cloud itself — provisioning takes what it takes, CloudReady announces the end,
and a promised minute that slips is worse than no promise. Queued after the
transaction, never inside it, and never allowed to fail the webhook: Stripe
retries anything that is not a 2xx, and a retry would re-enter provisioning
over a mail server having a bad minute.
The finished-cloud mail now names what was actually built — address, plan,
storage, location — because somebody who ordered a fortnight ago is checking it
against what they bought, and that is a comparison rather than a sentence. Still
no credential in it.
Two tests earn their place. One holds every template on the shared layout, so a
new one written in a hurry cannot copy-paste its way back to the framework's.
The other proves the finished-cloud mail carries no password — asserted against
the data the mail is given and the HTML it renders, not against the template's
source, because the first version of that test tripped over the word in a
comment and would have passed a template that leaked the value through a
variable. It tested the prose, not the mail.

Since 1.2.0 the agent has ended with a non-zero status on every tick, before
writing anything. The console showed a check that never finished and a
last-checked time frozen at the moment of the deployment, and the update button
could not be reached at all — the one mechanism that would have delivered the
fix.
Two instances of the same trap, both mine, both under `set -Eeuo pipefail`:
The tag count was `release_version_gt … && echo`. The LAST iteration is almost
always a tag that is not newer, so the loop ended non-zero, pipefail carried it
out of the pipeline, the command substitution inherited it, and set -e ended
the agent. `if` rather than `&&` is the whole fix: an if whose condition is
false still returns 0.
The newest tag came from `git tag … | head -1`. head exits after one line, git
takes SIGPIPE, pipefail does the rest. install-agent.sh has carried a written
warning about exactly this since it was written; I read it and wrote it anyway.
Both now live in deploy/lib/release.sh, because the reason neither was caught
is that no PHP test can reach a bash pipeline.
tests/Feature/ReleaseComparisonTest.php runs the real functions in a real
throwaway repository under the agent's own set -Eeuo pipefail, and asserts the
EXIT CODE as well as the answer — an answer nobody lives to read is not an
answer. The SIGPIPE case needs four hundred tags to reproduce, because a short
list finishes writing before head leaves.

The ownership repair added in 1.1.1 sampled the owner of each top-level
directory and skipped the recursion when it already matched. node_modules was
owned by www-data; node_modules/.vite-temp, left behind by an earlier root
build, was not. So the repair walked past it, `npm run build` failed with
EACCES, and the deployment stopped in maintenance mode — on the release whose
whole point was that this could not happen.
A directory's owner says nothing about its contents. It now walks each tree
once with find and changes only the entries that are wrong, which is also
cheaper than the detect-then-chown-everything it replaces.
Verified against the shape that actually failed: a root-owned file inside a
www-data-owned node_modules, repaired.

Registration opened an account that could sign in immediately on an address
nobody had proved was theirs — and anybody can type a stranger's into a
registration form. Both halves were commented out: the Fortify feature and
MustVerifyEmail on the model.
`verified` sits on the whole portal group rather than on the pages that spend
money. An unconfirmed address is not a billing problem to be caught at
checkout; it is an account that may not belong to the person holding it, and
the servers, the users and the backups behind it are worth as much to whoever
typed the address as to whoever owns it.
The mail is a Mailable in this product's design rather than Laravel's
notification, which would arrive with the framework's logo, button and footer
as the first thing anybody ever receives from CluPilot. It also has to leave
through the SYSTEM mailbox like every other account mail, which the
notification path does not do on its own.
The link is signed and expires, and the address is part of what is signed — so
a link issued to a mistyped address stops working the moment the address is
corrected, rather than confirming an address nobody can read. Tests cover the
tampered link, the expired one, the corrected address, and one account trying
to confirm another.
The waiting page is ours (Fortify has views off) and offers the only two things
that move somebody forward: send it again, or sign out and register with the
address they meant. The resend is throttled, because otherwise it is a button
that makes the server send mail to an arbitrary address as fast as it can be
clicked. Somebody already confirmed is redirected away from it — the `verified`
middleware only guards the other direction.

Completes the device work: the warning mail now has somewhere to send people.
A warning whose only advice is "if this was not you, take action" names a
problem and hands back nothing to do about it.
Both sides get their own component rather than one shared with the guard passed
in. Operators and customers are two guards and two tables (R21) — a component
taking the guard as input is one forged property away from listing and ending
the other side's sessions. Every query in SessionRegistry is scoped by guard as
well as by id for the same reason, and three tests hold that line, because the
unscoped version looks exactly like a working feature while doing it.
TouchLoginSession keeps each row pointing at the session it describes. Both
sign-in paths raise the Login event BEFORE session()->regenerate(), so the row
is written against an id that is dead a moment later — and the once-a-minute
throttle would have held the correction back for the first minute of every
session, hiding the session its reader is sitting in. A changed id is therefore
never throttled.
A session counts as live only if the framework's row exists AND was touched
within the session lifetime. The join alone is not enough: Laravel collects
expired sessions by lottery, so on a quiet installation rows sit there for days
and the list would offer somebody a laptop they shut last month.
Ending the others goes through the product's own modal (R23) and leaves the
asking session alone: signing somebody out of the page they are using to sign
other people out is not what the button says.

Sessions lived in Redis, where they cannot be enumerated — one key per session,
no index by user — so "where am I signed in" and "end that one" were not
answerable at all. The database driver keeps a row per session and makes ending
one a delete. It costs every currently signed-in person one forced sign-in,
once, which is why it is happening now rather than later.
The warning is only worth anything if it is rare, so the two obvious signals
are deliberately not used. Not the IP: it changes on every train, every café,
every mobile handover, and behind a VPN it is not theirs to begin with. Not the
user-agent: Chrome ships every four weeks and the string changes each time,
which would be twelve warnings a year per customer, describing nothing. A
device is a long-lived signed cookie holding a random token, and nothing else
is consulted. The honest cost — cleared cookies, a private window, a second
browser — is written into the mail itself, because a reader who thinks the
warning is wrong stops reading the next one.
Three things the tests found or hold:
The first device on an account is new and must not warn. Replying to somebody
creating an account by telling them they signed in from a new device is noise
on the one message that has to stay worth reading.
token_hash was globally unique, and the shared-browser test failed on it. Two
people on one machine share one cookie and must each own a device row against
it; the obvious repair — issue a fresh token for the second — would orphan the
first person's row and warn them about their own desk. Unique is now per
identity.
Recording a device may never block a sign-in. A safeguard that locks the owner
out when it breaks has stopped being one, so the listener logs and swallows,
and a test drops the tables to prove it.
Sessions are linked by a uuid carried inside the session payload rather than by
the session id, which Laravel rotates on every sign-in and every regenerate().
Laravel's own sessions.user_id cannot carry the link either: it is filled from
the default guard, while operators and customers are two guards and two tables
(R21) — operator 1 and customer 1 would each be offered the other's sessions.
Also lands the shared mail layout the rest of the templates will use: tables
and inline styles for Outlook, no image and no web font because half of all
clients block remote content, and the button in --accent-active rather than the
brand orange, which is 2.9:1 against white.
Not tagged: the session list is not built yet, and without a tag no server can
install this.

The password no longer travels through third-party mail servers or sits
forever in an inbox: it moves onto the instance (encrypted, same as
nc_admin_ref) and shows on the dashboard until the customer clicks
"Notiert", which deletes it for good.
The 500 on the VPN config download was never in the VPN code. storage/logs/
laravel.log was owned by root, mode 644, since 27.07 04:16 — the moment a
failed `artisan optimize` wrote its error there during a deployment. From then
on the application could not append to its own log: Monolog threw on every
attempt, and a throw while logging is a 500 on any page that logs, with nothing
written down to say why. The error page said "Er wurde protokolliert". It was
not.
It surfaced on the config download because that is one of the few pages writing
a log line on its way through — on success and on a wrong password alike. Pages
that log nothing were unaffected, which is exactly why it looked like a VPN
fault for days.
`docker compose exec` is root unless told otherwise, and every deployment
script relied on that default — including the agent's allowlist sync, which
runs every minute. docker/entrypoint.sh had it right all along and drops to
www-data for precisely these commands. Now so does everything else, help text
included: telling an operator to run artisan as root is how the file ends up
owned by root in the first place.
update.sh also repairs what an earlier run left behind, before its first
unprivileged step rather than after — a root-owned log file is not
self-healing, the page that trips over it is nowhere near the deployment that
caused it, and with in_app unprivileged a root-owned vendor/ would break the
next composer step outright.
tests/Feature/DeploymentRunsAsTheAppUserTest.php holds the line. It was checked
against the previous commit and finds all nine places that were wrong.

Asked for directly: a commit on main must change nothing on a server, and only
a tag whose version is higher than the installed one may be installed.
The agent asked two different questions before this. A pinned server compared
tags; everything else counted commits on its branch — so a console following
main offered an update for every push, verified or not, and "Jetzt
aktualisieren" meant "take whatever is on the branch right now". Landing on main
and being released are different events, and only the second is a decision
somebody made.
It is one question now, regardless of what the checkout is attached to: is there
a tag whose version is higher than the deployed one? Compared with sort -V
against the version in the deployment manifest — not the VERSION file, which an
update moves before it migrates, so a run that failed in between would leave the
checkout claiming a version it never finished installing. A run always targets
that tag; the branch path is gone. A request that arrives with nothing to
install is answered rather than obeyed, before anything announces a run.
The console follows: the button is disabled with nothing released, says so in a
line rather than leaving a grey button to be guessed at, names the version it
would install rather than a count, and refuses the action server-side as well —
a Livewire action is a public endpoint, and one place a rule may not live is
only in the disabled attribute of a button.
VERSION becomes 1.1.0, to be tagged as the first release this mechanism can see.

Clicking "Einrichten" generated a secret and showed the QR with no exit:
leaving meant navigating away, which left an unconfirmed enrolment on the
account that nothing on the console ever displayed. cancelSetup() clears
it — it was never confirmed, so it never protected anything.
The page was also one card with four states stacked into it. Now each
state is its own panel, the enrolment step says which step it is and
carries numbered instructions beside the code, and the recovery codes get
their own card with a copy button instead of being a footnote under
whatever came before them.
The code was immutable, which made a typo permanent. It cannot be freely mutable
either, and not only because hosts.datacenter references it: each host's DNS name
was minted from it and registered at the provider, the machine's own hostname was
set from it as it was built, the counter handing out those numbers is keyed by
it, and every past order stores it as plain text with no foreign key to follow.
Renaming a code with hosts in it is not a rename — it is a datacenter called hel
full of machines called fsn-01.
So it is editable exactly while nothing references it, which is the case that
matters: a typo noticed shortly after creating one. Once a host or an order
depends on it the field is disabled and says what is holding it, with the
numbers. The lock is recomputed from the database on every save, never read back
from the property the browser returns.
Alongside it, an optional free-text field for the specific datacenter —
fsn-dc-15. A provider runs several within one location, on separate power and
separate uplinks, and two entries both reading "Falkenstein (fsn)" are not a
choice anybody can make. Nothing keys off it; the code remains the identifier.
Also renames the country loop variables in the edit modal. They were $code and
$name — the component's own properties — and shadowed them for the rest of the
file. Harmless while nothing below the loop read them, which stopped being true
the moment the code became an editable field above it.

Checking for updates was a request written into the same mailbox as a real
update, collected by the same agent on the same systemd timer — so asking what
was new was answered on the next tick, and the console, having nothing else to
show, counted down to it. An operator who asked a question was told an update
would start in 3:44.
A systemd path unit now wakes the agent the moment the request file is written,
for a check and for a run alike. PathChanged, not PathExists: PathExists re-arms
as soon as the service goes inactive, so a request the agent could not consume —
it holds a lock for the length of an update — would restart it in a tight loop.
The timer stays as the fallback, and a drop-in disables systemd's start rate
limit, because two triggers on one oneshot service can otherwise wedge the unit
and leave neither of them able to run.
The countdown is gone from both the settings card and the maintenance overlay.
It could not be made honest: its target was recomputed on every poll, and where
the interval the agent reports is shorter than the timer actually installed on
that host it had already gone by, so the fallback moved it forward again each
time. It ran backwards four seconds and snapped back to a full minute, forever —
reported exactly that way. A queued run says it is starting; a queued check says
nothing beyond its badge, because a check starts nothing.

VpnConfigAccess::reveal() dereferenced Auth::guard('operator')->user()
unguarded, which is null when a modal's session has ended since it was
opened (a Livewire action reaches its component through /livewire/update
on its own, without the page's original route middleware). The same
unguarded pattern was in TwoFactorSetup, InstanceAdminAccess and Settings.
Add App\Livewire\Concerns\ResolvesOperator with currentOperator(), the one
place that resolves the operator and redirects to admin.login when there
isn't one, and use it everywhere the pattern occurred.

A blocked outbound port (587 filtered at a firewall, as on the live
server) left both MailboxTester and MailboxTransport blocking until
PHP's default_socket_timeout (60s) or the reverse proxy cut the
request — a 504 with no error the operator ever saw. Mail::build()
honours a 'timeout' config key by calling SocketStream::setTimeout()
(confirmed by reading MailManager::configureSmtpTransport() and by an
end-to-end run against a genuinely unroutable host), so MailboxTester
now passes 'timeout' => 10 through it. MailboxTransport builds its
EsmtpTransport directly rather than through Mail::build(), so it sets
the same call on the transport's stream, at 30s — a queue worker can
afford to wait longer than an operator watching a browser, and a
timed-out send is retried rather than lost.
The test button also now shows a visible "sending" state while the
request is in flight, matching the wire:loading span pattern already
used on admin/host-create's save button — previously only
wire:loading.attr="disabled" fired, leaving a greyed-out button with
no other sign anything was happening.

guest:operator's authenticated-user redirect had no console-aware
override, so it fell to Laravel's own default: the named 'dashboard'
route, the portal. An operator revisiting admin.login while already
signed in bounced to the portal's own login instead — in exclusive
mode, to a 404, since dashboard isn't a console route there.
redirectUsersTo() now mirrors the existing redirectGuestsTo() override
right above it, keyed on the same AdminArea::isConsole($request)
condition, so the two read as a pair.
completeLogin() re-checks isActive()/isOperator() immediately before signing
in, not only at the password step. The two-factor challenge previously only
confirmed the operator row still existed (Operator::find() + a null check),
so disabling an operator or revoking every console role in the window between
the password step and the pending code did not stop the login from
completing — the realistic case is an owner locking someone out mid-login,
not a contrived one.
One check, in the static method both OperatorLogin's direct exit and
OperatorTwoFactorChallenge::verify() already share, rather than a second copy
in the challenge. completeLogin() now returns bool instead of void: false
means refused, and neither the guard nor the session was touched. Each caller
turns that into a ValidationException in its own vocabulary — 'email' /
auth.failed for the direct exit (already unreachable in practice, since
authenticate() just checked the same two conditions synchronously; kept for
defense in depth), 'code' / auth.not_an_operator for the challenge, since the
code entered may be genuinely correct and reusing "wrong code" would mislead.
The three sites that refuse to create or rename an operator onto a
customer's email (Admin\Settings::saveAccount(), ::inviteStaff(), and
clupilot:create-operator) all checked Customer::where('email', ...) as
a proxy for "does this address already have a portal login". A users
row with no matching customers row — an email changed on one side
only, or legacy/orphaned data — passed straight through: this dev
database already had one.
Extracted the three copies into Customer::emailTaken(), which checks
both tables directly, so the three sites cannot drift from each other
again.
The setup-route exemption already went through AdminArea::routeIs(),
which matches both admin.<name> and admin.via*.<name>. The logout
exemption next to it used a bare $request->routeIs('admin.logout'),
which matches only the canonical name — on a recovery hostname the
logout route is admin.via0.logout, so the check failed there and an
unenrolled operator's logout POST bounced back to enrolment instead
of being let through, on exactly the host that exists because the
canonical one is not working.
RequireOperatorTwoFactor exempted the whole of admin.settings while
compulsory two-factor was on, on the theory that it was "the page
where two-factor is set up". That component also carries staff
management, site visibility, network restrictions, account changes,
and the two-factor policy switch itself, so an unenrolled operator got
unrestricted access to all of that, not just enrolment.
Enrolment (secret, QR, confirm, recovery codes, regenerate, disable)
moves to its own route and component, admin.two-factor-setup /
Admin\TwoFactorSetup, reachable by every operator regardless of
capability. That is now the only page the middleware exempts besides
logout, and its redirect points there instead. admin.settings goes
back behind the policy like every other console page; only the policy
switch itself stays there, since only someone who already satisfies
it should be the one changing it.
EnsureCustomerActive used session()->invalidate() to sign a suspended
or closed customer out. In shared-host mode the console and the
portal keep their login key in one session, so invalidate() (flush()
+ migrate(true)) silently signed out an operator elsewhere in that
same browser too. Same fix as the console's own /logout route:
regenerate() gets a fresh session id without flushing attributes
belonging to another guard.
confirmPassword() already checked the right account per guard, but the
session marker it stamped, auth.password_confirmed_at, was one flat
key shared by every guard. In shared-host mode the portal and console
guards keep their login in the same session, so confirming a
customer's portal password left the marker in place for an
operator-only gate too. One private method now computes the key for
all three callers so they cannot drift apart again.
PublicSiteGate let anyone through on a bare Auth::guard('operator')->check(),
which stays true for a disabled operator's live session — disabling
someone does not sign them out, so it never stopped this gate from
showing them the real site indefinitely, even though EnsureAdmin
already treats them as inactive. Now requires the same thing EnsureAdmin
does: an active operator holding a console role.
Chosen to merely ignore an invalid operator session here rather than log
it out. This gate only decides what one request sees; logging out would
ripple into whatever else that session is doing (a concurrent console
tab, mid-task), a bigger side effect than a visibility check exists to
have. EnsureAdmin sets the precedent — it also rejects a disabled
operator per request without touching their session.
Customer::ensureUser() enforced uniqueness only within users, so a
customer provisioned (or registering publicly) with an operator's email
got a second, colliding identity for the same address — the exact thing
R21 exists to prevent. Checks Operator by address now, not by session
(the deleted assertNotAdmin() checked who was signed in, which could
never be the right question).
Public registration gets the same guard via a plain unique() validation
rule, reusing Laravel's stock "already taken" message rather than a
dedicated one — naming the collision specifically would tell a public
visitor an address belongs to staff, a worse leak than the generic
refusal every other collision here already gives them.
Impersonation answers 409 instead of crashing into it. The Stripe
webhook keeps recording the paid order (same principle as
openContract()'s own comment: the order is proof money changed hands)
and withholds only the colliding login, logged for an operator to
resolve by hand.
Verified the reverse direction Codex flagged as already covered: two
Admin\Settings actions and the clupilot:create-operator command all
already refuse an operator email that collides with a customer's, and
that check is sound today because every users row is created in
lockstep with a customers row of the same email (CreateNewUser and
ensureUser are the only two creation sites, both confirmed by grep) and
nothing in this app can change a user's email afterwards (Fortify's
updateProfileInformation feature is disabled, and no other code calls
that action).
console.require_2fa exempted admin.settings from the redirect it forces on
an unconfirmed operator, but that page only ever configured the global
policy — nobody could enrol behind it. A newly invited operator stayed
permanently redirected to a page with no way to satisfy the requirement,
the opposite of what the switch was for.
Adds enable/confirm/regenerate/disable to Admin\Settings, reusing Fortify's
own actions exactly as the portal's Settings already does — they only ever
touch the model they're handed, no guard or auth() call inside them, so
pointing ConfirmsPassword's guard at 'operator' is the only change needed.
The new card is deliberately not gated behind the site.manage capability
that hides the rest of this page's Owner-only sections: the compulsory
switch applies to every operator, so enrolment has to be reachable by every
operator too. Dropped the account card's stale hint pointing at a "separate
security area" that never existed.
operatorUserIds() only discovered console users through model_has_roles. A
pre-existing account granted console.view straight through
model_has_permissions, holding no role at all, was invisible to the
worklist — meanwhile the permission's own guard is switched to `operator`
a few lines above, so that account would silently lose console access
while staying behind as a working portal login. Worklist is now the
deduplicated, sorted union of both tables; orderBy('model_id') kept on
each side since carryAcross() remaps in place and the ordering still
matters regardless of which table an id came from.
Where the console and the portal share a host (shared/fallback mode —
this VM's own mode), both guards keep their login key in the SAME
session. session()->invalidate() is flush() + migrate(true) — it
discards every attribute in the session, not only the operator's, so
signing out of the console silently signed a customer out of the
portal too if the same browser carried both. Replaced with
session()->regenerate(): a new session id, so there is no fixation
risk, while attributes belonging to any other guard survive untouched.
ApplicationBuilder::withMiddleware() defaults redirectGuestsTo() to
fn () => route('login') before bootstrap/app.php's own callback ever
runs — always the portal's Fortify page, regardless of which side of
the site turned the guest away. In non-exclusive (shared, this VM's
own mode) that sends a guest bounced off /admin to a sign-in form whose
table holds no operators: no 404 any more, but a sign-in that can never
succeed. Exclusive mode happened to self-correct only because
RestrictAdminHost 404s the wrong host before this ever ran.
Fixed for both modes at once rather than depending on which one a given
deployment runs: ask AdminArea, the one place routes/web.php's own
registration and RestrictAdminHost already agree is the source of truth
for "is this the console".
POST /broadcasting/auth carries only the 'web' middleware group
(Laravel's own withBroadcasting() registers it that way), so
PusherBroadcaster::auth() resolved retrieveUser() on the DEFAULT guard
before the admin.runs channel's own Auth::guard('operator') check ever
ran — found nobody, since an operator is never signed in on 'web', and
threw straight from there. The guard was correct but unreachable.
Fixed by naming both guards on the channel registration itself.
Also adds broadcasting/auth to RestrictAdminHost::SHARED: in exclusive
mode it was neither admin.* by name nor on the shared list, so it 404'd
on the console host too — degrading silently to wire:poll.4s rather
than breaking outright, which is why nothing screamed.
Three faults in the same migration:
- up()'s removal loop was driven by operatorUserIds() (model_has_roles
WHERE model_type=User) via the $carried array — but carryAcross()
repoints model_has_roles to Operator for every operator before a
single users row is deleted. A run that stops partway (the
customer-conflict abort, or a dropped connection on real MariaDB,
which this file deliberately runs without a transaction) leaves that
worklist empty on the next attempt, so `migrate` records the
migration as applied while every leftover users row still grants a
live portal login on the operator's own password. Now driven by
`operators` joined to `users` on email: that finds every
carried-but-not-yet-deleted row regardless of which run carried it.
- operatorUserIds() had no ORDER BY. carryAcross() remaps four owned
columns in place, keyed on the old users.id, while operators.id hands
out new values in the same order the list is walked — unordered, a
later operator's freshly assigned id can equal an earlier operator's
still-unprocessed users.id, and the second remap catches a row the
first one already rewrote. One operator ends up silently owning
another operator's VPN peer. Added ->orderBy('model_id').
- down() restored model_has_roles but not model_has_permissions, so an
operator holding a direct (not role-granted) permission lost it on
rollback. Mirrored the same move carryAcross() does forward.
Also removes seed_roles_and_permissions' now-stale
User::OPERATOR_ROLES/hasAnyRole()/assignRole() bootstrap loop — all
three gone from User per this branch's own work — which only a deep
rollback (down() of the move migration recreates is_admin users) would
ever have reached, but would fatal when it did.
It checked Auth::guard('operator')->check() instead of the users row it
was handed, so with an operator's own session still attached (shared
mode carries the same cookie through both legs of impersonation) it
threw the moment a customer's email already had a users row — a 500 on
the first impersonation of anyone who had signed into the portal
themselves. Deleting it rather than fixing the check: operators live in
`operators` now, never in `users` (R21), so a users row can no longer
BE an operator account for this to guard against. Also drops the dead
`'is_admin' => false` write — the column reads from nowhere any more.
redirect()->to(AdminArea::home()) resolved against whatever host the
leave() POST itself arrived on — the portal's, once the console has a
hostname of its own — landing the operator on the portal's dashboard
instead of back at the console. route('admin.overview') is domain-bound
to the console and generates the correct cross-host URL, matching what
this line did before this branch. The test named after this behaviour
now actually asserts it.
actingAs()/Livewire::actingAs() call Auth::shouldUse(), which made every
existing test for this trait pass identically whether confirmPassword() asked
for the right guard explicitly or just read whichever guard happened to be
default — reverting the explicit guard() call to a bare auth()->user() passed
the full suite. This test signs the operator in without actingAs and
deliberately decouples the ambient default guard from their session before
calling confirmPassword(), so only the explicit resolution can succeed.
