tests / pest (push) Failing after 9m49s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 21s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Two complaints, one cause: the customer page was a compose box with three
lists under it. It showed nothing ABOUT the customer, and every answer was
typed from scratch.

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

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

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

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

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

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

nexxo e376b571be Read the support mailbox into the console
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m59s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 20s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
No, not an API token: mailcow's API administers domains and mailboxes —
it does not read mail. Reading a mailbox is IMAP whoever runs the server,
so that is what this is. Host, user and folder are console settings; the
password is a vault entry, like every other credential that opens
something.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

nexxo 7265799881 Quote what a person pays, and tab the settings page
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m50s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 21s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
Prices. The sheet quoted net, which is the wrong number for one of its
two readers: a private customer has no way to add 20 % in their head and
no business being surprised by it at checkout. The gross figure is now
the big one, with the net underneath for a company's books, and the same
rule applies to the module prices further down — a sheet that quotes the
package with VAT and the module without it is a sheet whose numbers
cannot be added up. The rate is the one on the Finance page, the same one
an invoice uses; a percentage written into the template would be the
second source that makes the two disagree.

"zzgl. einmaliger Einrichtung" had run for months without ever naming a
figure, which leaves a visitor knowing only that there is one. It is a
field on the Finance page now and prints with the price. Zero removes the
sentence — and the comparison card that listed the fee as the honest
downside of the offer — rather than admitting to a cost that is not
charged.

Layout. Four packages in 1120px left each card 202px of text, which is
what broke "Bereitstellung in 2-3 Werktagen" over two lines and made the
cards look pressed against each other. The pricing section is wider than
the rest of the page (only it: the reading columns elsewhere are narrow
on purpose, a price sheet is four columns that must be comparable at a
glance), the gap between cards is larger, and the delivery line is short
enough to fit with whitespace-nowrap to keep it that way.

Navigation. VPN moves from Betrieb to System: the tunnel is not a task of
the day, it is how the console reaches the estate at all.

Settings. The page had grown to three headed sections in one column with
the operator's own password somewhere in the middle. It is tabbed now,
and two-factor enrolment is one of the tabs instead of a menu entry of
its own — it is a setting, and it was the one thing an operator had to
leave this page to change about their own access. Same component, no
second copy of the enrolment logic; it still answers at its own route
because RequireOperatorTwoFactor sends an operator there who may not open
anything else yet, this page included.

The open tab lives in the query string, so a reload, a bookmark and the
back button all land where the operator was. That matters here more than
elsewhere: the installation tab refreshes itself while an update runs,
and a tab kept only in the component would drop them back to the first
one mid-deployment.

nexxo ec8675861e Take the order, park it, and say when it will be delivered
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m44s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 21s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
A paid order that no host has room for used to FAIL at the reservation
step. The customer has paid by then, so that turned a sale into an
incident and left somebody holding money against nothing. The estate is
finite and booked thick, so "no host has room right now" is an ordinary
Tuesday — it means a machine has to be bought, which takes days.

So the order waits instead. poll(), not retry(): the wait is measured in
days and must not eat the run's attempt budget. It only fails after
PARK_DAYS (14) — long enough to buy, rack and onboard a server over a
weekend, short enough that a forgotten order surfaces instead of waiting
for ever.

Then say so, in the same words on both sides of the payment:

  - The price sheet marks each package "wird sofort ausgeliefert" or
    "Bereitstellung in 2-3 Werktagen", read from free capacity rather
    than written into the page.
  - The customer's own overview says their cloud is being prepared while
    it is parked, instead of a stepper standing still for two days under
    "wird eingerichtet" — which reads as broken.
  - The console front page shows the same per-package answer, so an
    operator can see what visitors are being promised.

And a capacity page for the decision that follows: who is waiting, what
the roomiest host still has, what the queue needs ("3x Start, 1x
Business" - the LARGEST parked package sets the minimum machine, because
an instance lives on one host), and what such a machine costs today from
the provider's live list. It orders nothing: buying a server is a
contract, and a bug in a capacity calculation must not sign one.

The operator can also say where each parked order goes. A pin is
honoured or it waits — never quietly redirected — because placing it
elsewhere answers a different question than the one they answered, and
they would find out from the finished instance.

Two things this shook out:

  - `current_step` is an INDEX into the pipeline, not the step's key, and
    it is cast to integer. `where('current_step', 'reserve_resources')`
    reads as correct and matches step 0 of EVERY pipeline instead. Both
    lookups go through HostCapacity::parkedRuns() now, which resolves the
    index and filters by pipeline.
  - The auction feed sends `hdd_hr` as a list, not a string. Casting it
    printed "Array" into the console and raised a warning that took the
    page down with it.

nexxo 4e3beca759 Close the domain page to packages that may not have one
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.

nexxo ea643b5e73 Prove a custom domain before serving it, and keep proving it
tests / pest (push) Failing after 8m17s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 23s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
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.

nexxo b85df4c141 Rebuild the status page as a status page
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".

nexxo 86bf4f26e0 List issued invoices in the console, with no way to change one
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m34s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 22s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
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.

nexxo 3fadaa14b0 Merge credentials and infrastructure into one Integrations page
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.

nexxo e6d2e6dc33 Give the console a Finance tab: company details, VAT rate, invoice series
tests / pest (push) Failing after 7m49s Details
tests / assets (push) Successful in 22s Details
tests / release (push) Has been skipped Details
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.

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.

nexxo 27292237c3 Move operator two-factor enrolment off admin.settings onto its own page
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.

nexxo 21d8dc310a One definition of the navigation, and the country instead of the building
The breadcrumb said Übersicht on every page. The sidebar and the breadcrumb
each built their own copy of the structure, so the layout had no way to know
which entry was current and fell back to the first one. Navigation::portal()
and ::console() are now the single definition, and currentLabel() matches on the
route name — which matters for the console, whose PATH changes between
host-bound and fallback mode while its route names do not.

The datacentre name is out of everything a customer sees, for the third time
and now at the source rather than in a template. Falkenstein is how an
operator places an instance; a customer's processing record names the
jurisdiction, and putting the building in customer copy means editing that copy
every time the estate grows.

Also swept the views onto the new scale: --text-faint is 2.8:1 and a decoration
token, but it was carrying table headers, hints and timestamps — text people
have to read. All of it moved to --muted, which is 5.0:1 and passes AA.
