savePurposes() only checked that each key was a nonempty string, so a
stale or tampered mailbox key (reachable by posting straight to
/livewire/update) saved successfully while MailboxResolver silently
returned null for it. Every purpose's key must now name a mailbox that
exists; system's must additionally be active, since every unmapped or
inactive OTHER purpose falls through to it.
EditMailbox::save() also cleared last_verified_at only when the
password changed, but smtpUsername() depends on address and username
too (falling back to address when username is blank) — changing
either while leaving the password untouched kept showing a successful
verification for an identity nothing had actually tested.
EsmtpTransport's autoTls (default true) and requireTls (default false)
are independent of the implicit-TLS constructor argument: 'tls' left
these at their defaults, so a server that omitted STARTTLS sent
mailbox credentials in the clear while reporting success, and 'none'
would silently upgrade the moment a server offered STARTTLS. Both
MailboxTransport and MailboxTester already duplicated the "ssl, or
port 465 ⇒ implicit" half of this decision independently; MailTlsPolicy
is now the one place both read, for both dimensions.
MailboxTester still builds through Mail::build() rather than a hand-built
transport: MailManager::createSmtpTransport() forwards the whole config
array to EsmtpTransportFactory as DSN options, which already reads
auto_tls/require_tls itself, so the same policy reaches this path
through keys the config array already supports.
Symfony's mailer only knows the schemes smtp and smtps; the example's
MAIL_SCHEME=tls (and the "tls | smtps (465)" comment naming it as an
option) made the default mailer unconstructible. .env itself is left
alone — that is the operator's live file.
I3: nothing stopped an operator unchecking Aktiv on the mailbox that
mail.purpose.system points at. MailboxResolver::active() filters an
inactive mailbox at BOTH the direct lookup and the system fallback, so
that one checkbox could take mail.purpose.system to null and every
purpose without its own mapping down with it — the existing
system_required guard on savePurposes() reads as if this were covered,
but it only blocks the empty-mapping path, not this one.
EditMailbox::save() now refuses active=false against the mailbox 'system'
currently points at, the same way savePurposes() already refuses to leave
'system' empty.
I4: Admin\Mail::saveServer() writes mail.host — the platform's outbound
relay for every purpose mailbox at once — and CloudReady::toMail() puts a
customer's Nextcloud admin password in cleartext in the message body. So a
signed-in mail.manage session was already a credential-interception
primitive, the same threat Admin\Secrets' second gate exists for. Both
saveServer() and EditMailbox::save() (only when a new password is actually
being typed) now also require passwordRecentlyConfirmed(), following the
ConfirmsPassword pattern Secrets.php and Settings.php's two-factor actions
already use — including their per-action UI shape (an inline confirm form
scoped to the gated action), not a whole-page lock, so address, display
name, username, no-reply, active and the purpose mapping stay reachable
without confirming, per the brief's capability split.
Both gated and ungated paths are covered by tests, and both guards were
mutated away and confirmed to fail before being restored.
Mail::to($x)->queue($mail) resolves the DEFAULT mailer, and
Illuminate\Mail\Mailer::queue() (vendor Mailer.php:482) does
`$view->mailer($this->name)->queue($this->queue)` — overwriting
MaintenanceAnnouncementMail/MaintenanceCancelledMail's own 'cp_maintenance'
with the default mailer's name ('array' in tests, 'log'/whatever
MAIL_MAILER is in prod) before the job is even built. Both mails kept
sending through the old .env account instead of MailboxTransport. CloudReady
was never affected — MailChannel.php:66 preserves a notification's own
mailer.
Fix: name the mailer before queueing — Mail::mailer($mail->mailer)->to(...).
$this->name on the resolved Mailer is then already $mail->mailer, so the
vendor overwrite becomes a no-op instead of a silent downgrade. Confirmed by
reading the vendor source, not assumed.
SenderAddressTest's "names the purpose mailer..." test asserted
$mail->mailer on a bare, never-queued mailable, which proves nothing about
what survives queueing — the constructor sets it right regardless of what
MaintenanceNotifier does with it. Replaced it with one that drives
MaintenanceNotifier::deliver() under Queue::fake() and inspects the pushed
SendQueuedMailable's mailable. Verified it fails against the pre-fix code
first (the pushed job carried mailer = 'array'), then verified the fix
makes it pass, then mutated the fix away and watched it fail again.
MailboxSeedMigrationTest.php had the actual .env MAIL_PASSWORD for
no-reply@clupilot.com hard-coded into a test fixture — replaced with an
obvious dummy. Grepped the whole branch (576cfca..HEAD) and the working
tree for that string and for every other real secret value in .env;
nothing else leaked.
Separately, the seed migration's SECRETS_KEY-missing warning claimed a
password "was NOT copied into the mailbox table" even when a vault row
already existed and its ciphertext WAS carried across a few lines below,
unconditionally on $canEncrypt. An operator debugging a live mail outage
would have been sent to re-enter a password that was already sitting in
the column. The warning now distinguishes the two cases and says which
one actually happened.
It only ever loaded the page and asserted the banner, never a password
save — but its name claimed the crash-on-save case, which is exactly the
promise that let that bug ship unnoticed once. The test that earns the
crash claim is its new neighbour, added for the same finding.
EditMailbox::save() now checks SecretCipher::isUsable() before touching a
typed password and reports it as a form error, instead of letting
SecretCipher::encrypt() throw all the way to Laravel's debug page. Also
switches the mail.manage migration to Role::findOrCreate, matching every
sibling capability migration, so a squashed replay can't hit
RoleDoesNotExist.
The vault's mail.password row is no longer deleted by this migration at
all, in either direction: deleting it unconditionally destroyed a real
password whenever MAIL_USERNAME was empty (nowhere to carry it to), and
even on a successful carry-over a later rollback had nothing left to fall
back to. Reproduced both against real MariaDB, along with a migrations-
table drift that crashed a retry on the mailboxes.key unique constraint —
fixed with Mailbox::firstOrNew() and a transaction around each direction.
down() now goes through the new Settings::forget() instead of a raw
delete, so it stops leaving the settings cache holding what it just
removed. A skipped .env password (SECRETS_KEY still unset) now prints an
operator-visible line instead of migrating clean and failing silently
later. Host/port that resolve to config/mail.php's own placeholder
defaults are treated as unset rather than as a real relay.
The seed migration also guards against SECRETS_KEY being unset at migrate
time (encrypting the .env password would otherwise throw and take the
whole migration down, on a fresh install as much as in the test suite),
and the four tests/Feature/Mail files written before this migration reset
the mailbox table in their beforeEach so they keep testing what they did
before mailboxes.key collided with the seeded rows.
A mutation the reviewer ran (if ($box !== null) -> if (true)) left every
test green: CloudReady hand-rolled the same null-mailbox guard as
SendsFromMailbox, but nothing exercised its null branch. Added the
missing test, then extracted the decision itself (null mailbox -> no
sender fields, no_reply -> no Reply-To) into one shared method so an
Envelope-shaped and a MailMessage-shaped consumer can no longer disagree.
Re-review of the previous fix round found the "cannot disagree" part of
finding 4 was still open. resolution() had unified the log/array/null/
mailbox decision, but inside the mailbox branch describe() returned
$box?->address unconditionally while delegate() additionally required
isConfigured() before using it. A mailbox with active=true, a real
address, and no password produced
'mailbox://support/support@clupilot.com' — reading as entirely healthy
— while send() threw. That is exactly the harm the original finding
named: the log says fine, the mail fails.
resolution() now decides "unconfigured" too, not just "which
non-delivering mode": it calls isConfigured() itself, once, and returns
that verdict alongside the box. describe() and delegate() both branch
on the SAME result again, the same way they already did for log/array/
null — a mailbox with no password now reads as
'support@clupilot.com [unconfigured]' rather than a plain address, and
the address stays visible so an operator can tell WHICH mailbox needs
fixing.
Also renamed a test the re-review flagged as promising more than it
checked: "registers a mailer per purpose without touching the database
at boot" only ever verified the config array's shape — the DB-touching
claim is a separate, already-passing test just below it
(defines every purpose mailer as a plain literal...). Renamed to
"registers a mailer for every purpose". No behaviour change.
Added a test creating a mailbox with no password and asserting the DSN
both names the address AND carries the marker, plus that send() still
throws — proving agreement, not just a matching label painted on
separately. Mutated describe()'s unconfigured branch to drop the
marker: the test failed exactly on the missing 'unconfigured' string
(DSN read as a plain, healthy-looking address again). Reverted, reran,
passes.
Full suite: 667 passed. vendor/bin/pint --test clean on both files.

The reviewer continued the mutation sweep from Task 4's own commit and
found three more unpinned lines in delegate(), plus two real behaviour
gaps, all inside the same 40-line method:
- The fingerprint refresh (the headline feature: a worker's mailer
must pick up a corrected password without a restart) had no test —
mutating its check to "delegate === null" left the suite green.
- The implicit-TLS third argument to EsmtpTransport had no test either
— mutating it to a hardcoded true left the suite green, because the
only assertion touching it was instanceof EsmtpTransport, which the
hanging variant also satisfies.
- isLogging() only ever checked for 'log', but phpunit.xml sets
MAIL_MAILER=array for the whole suite. Task 5 wires real mailables
to these mailers next; the first feature test that sends one without
Mail::fake() would have opened a real SMTP connection.
- describe() and delegate() each ran their own copy of that guard —
which is exactly how deleting it from ONLY delegate() passed the
whole suite in the first place: __toString() kept reporting "log"
from its own untouched copy.
- An unconfigured host/port (Settings::get('mail.host', '') and a
stored null port casting to 0) built a transport pointed at
smtp://:587 or silently downgraded to plaintext port 25, instead of
refusing the way a missing mailbox already does.
Fixes: replaced isLogging() with resolution(), the one place that now
decides "log, array, null-default, or a real mailbox" — describe() and
delegate() both branch on ITS result, so a guard broken in one cannot
look fine in the other. Added an explicit RuntimeException for a blank
host or non-positive port, guarded the same way as the missing-mailbox
case just above it.
Tests: added coverage for the fingerprint rebuild (reuses the same
delegate until the password actually changes, proven by object
identity), the exact DSN string for both the STARTTLS (587) and
implicit-TLS (465) cases, 'array' and unset-default both landing on a
non-delivering transport, and the blank host/bad port throwing.
Mutated each of these four in turn on the final code and confirmed:
fingerprint check removed -> the reuse test fails (same object handed
back after the password changed); TLS argument hardcoded true -> the
587 DSN test fails ('smtps://...' where 'smtp://...:587' was
expected); NON_DELIVERING narrowed back to ['log'] -> both the array
and unset-default tests fail (a real EsmtpTransport where a safe
transport was expected); host/port guards removed -> both throw
expectations fail. Reverted each, reran, all twelve tests pass again.
Replaced the two tests that reached into delegate() via Closure::bind
to check "log or SMTP" with one behavioural test: point Settings at a
closed loopback port (127.0.0.1:1, so refusal is instant and entirely
local — no DNS, no dependency on this environment's network egress
policy) and assert Log::shouldReceive('debug')->once() while sending
for real through Mail::mailer('cp_support')->raw(...). Mutated
NON_DELIVERING to drop 'log' specifically and confirmed this test
alone catches it: a real connection attempt to the closed port throws
TransportException (Connection refused) in under 300ms. Reverted,
reran, passes again.
Also: the two tests that only checked the config array's shape and a
snapshot of the resolved address promised more than they verified —
CLAUDE.md R19 names a test that recomputes the implementation as
checking nothing. Added a source-level test that the five cp_* config
entries are parenthesis-free literals (same technique
DisplayTimezoneTest/IconLayoutTest use: a property of the file, not of
one run) as the actual "no query at boot" proof, and renamed the
send-time test to what it verifies now that the fingerprint test above
covers the live-refresh claim properly.

Review of Task 4: MailboxResolver::for() only fell back on a missing
mapping or a missing row. Deactivating a mailbox — the operator's
explicit "do not use this" — left it resolvable anyway, so
MailboxTransport reached it, found isConfigured() false, and threw
instead of quietly using the next candidate the way every other
"this mailbox is unusable" case does. Worse, __toString() still
reported the deactivated address as though it were healthy.
named() now runs through a new active() filter at BOTH lookup sites —
the purpose's own mapping and the system fallback — so an inactive
system mailbox is refused exactly like a missing one, not handed out
as the last resort. A missing password stays deliberately unfiltered
here: that is a MailboxTransport concern (loud failure naming the
mailbox), not a resolver fallback trigger — silently rerouting mail
because a password hasn't been typed yet would hide the gap instead
of surfacing it.
Added two tests and mutated active() to a no-op filter to confirm they
catch it: both failed (one expected the system mailbox, got null; the
other expected null, got the inactive mailbox's full attribute dump).
Reverted, reran, both pass again.

Five purpose-named mailers (cp_maintenance, cp_provisioning, cp_support,
cp_billing, cp_system) land in config/mail.php as plain static entries —
no query runs to build them. Mail::extend('mailbox', ...) in
AppServiceProvider registers a transport that looks up its mailbox
through MailboxResolver only once a mailer is actually resolved, which
for queued mail is inside the worker at send time, never at boot.
Mutation-tested the brief's own three tests by deleting the MAIL_MAILER
guard from MailboxTransport::delegate(): all three stayed green. They
only exercise __toString()/describe(), a code path separate from the one
that actually sends. Added two tests that reach into delegate() itself
(a bound closure, since it's private) and assert the transport it
actually builds: LogTransport while MAIL_MAILER=log, EsmtpTransport once
it isn't. Re-ran the same mutation against the strengthened suite: it
now fails (EsmtpTransport where LogTransport was expected), then passes
again once reverted.
Verified two things against the installed versions before writing this:
LogTransport takes a Psr\Log\LoggerInterface and Log::channel(null)
resolves to the default channel rather than throwing, and
Mail::extend('mailbox', ...) is read by
MailManager::createSymfonyTransport() via $config['transport'] before it
would fall back to createSmtpTransport() — both matched the brief
exactly, no changes needed there.

The old test rotated app.key and expected the password to stay
readable, but Laravel's encrypter is a container singleton resolved
once — config()->set('app.key', ...) never rebuilds it, so the
rotation the test performed was invisible to any code path going
through it. Confirmed by mutation: rewiring Mailbox to Crypt::
encryptString/decryptString (genuinely APP_KEY-keyed, the exact
regression this constraint exists to forbid) left the old test green.
Replace it with two tests: a positive proof that rotating SECRETS_KEY
makes a stored password unreadable (the one that discriminates), and
a separate check that rotating APP_KEY does not, with
forgetInstance('encrypter') so that rotation is actually visible to
whatever the password accessor resolves.
Re-ran the same mutation against the new test: it fails (exit 1, the
SECRETS_KEY test reports the expected DecryptException was not
thrown), then passes again once the mutation is reverted.
The Task 2 reviewer rewired the model to Laravel's APP_KEY-based Crypt
facade and every test stayed green. Laravel's encrypter is a container
singleton resolved once from app.key, so config()->set('app.key') never
rebuilds it and the rotation the test performed was invisible.
Replaced with a positive proof — rotating SECRETS_KEY must break
decryption — plus the APP_KEY case with forgetInstance(), which is what
makes that direction mean anything.
Mailbox hand-rolled the same creating-time UUID assignment that
App\Models\Concerns\HasUuid already provides to 17 other models under
R11 (URLs address records by UUID, not integer PK), and skipped the
route-key binding that comes with it. Swap onto the trait, and cover
both the assignment and the route key with a test matching the
convention already used for Host/Order.
Also match MailboxFactory's @extends annotation to how the other
factories in the repo write it (Pint's fully_qualified_strict_types
rule turns a fully-qualified docblock reference into an import plus a
short name anyway, so this is what it would end up as either way).
Seventeen models use App\Models\Concerns\HasUuid, and R11 is the reason:
URLs address records by UUID, not by integer primary key. The plan told
the implementer to hand-roll booted() instead, losing getRouteKeyName()
with it. Authoring error, corrected before the remaining tasks copy it.
The Task 1 implementer copied '// path/to/file.php' into the files
verbatim, which breaks Pint's blank_line_after_opening_tag and matches
no file in the repo. The annotation was mine; the constraint now says so
before the next seven tasks repeat it.
Self-review against the spec turned up four gaps and one latent bug in
what already ships.
The bug: Laravel 13's MailManager reads only 'scheme' when building an
SMTP transport (MailManager.php:196) — the old 'encryption' fallback is
gone — and .env carries MAIL_SCHEME=tls, which Symfony does not accept;
it knows smtp and smtps. Nothing has failed because MAIL_MAILER=log
means no connection has ever been opened. The plan stores a human-facing
tls/ssl choice and translates it where it is used, and never copies
MAIL_SCHEME through.
The gaps: the cancellation mail and the provisioning notification were
edited but not tested, secrets.manage was never proven insufficient for
the new page, and a missing SECRETS_KEY had no task making the page say
so rather than throw.

The console offers a single mail.password pointing at one SMTP mailbox,
which is nowhere near enough for five sending addresses. A mailbox is
address, display name, username and password; five of them as registry
entries would be twenty secrets named mail.support.username, and the
question of which mail sends from which address would still have no home.
Send-only stays usable because every message carries Reply-To on its own
mailbox, so a customer's reply lands in a mailbox someone reads. That is
what makes IMAP unnecessary rather than merely deferred.

Decided: whoever is in operators has no business in users. A row left
behind is the same mixing the separation exists to end, only smaller.
The one case that deletes nothing is a row with a customer, a seat or an
order on it. That would mean the same person is operator and paying
customer, and a silent delete would take billing data with it — so the
migration stops and names the address instead. Neither existing account
is in that state.

The operator console and the customer portal share one users table, one
login page and one guard. Three reported faults follow from that single
fact: the console serves the portal's sign-in page, that page offers
"Registrieren", and the link 404s because RestrictAdminHost::SHARED does
not list register.
Measured rather than assumed: driving the host guard directly gives
/login through and /register 404 on the console host, and all sixteen
Spatie permissions turn out to be console permissions — so RBAC moves to
the new guard rather than being duplicated across two.

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

Three things reported together.
── Editing belongs in a modal (R20)
The seats table grew its input fields into the row. It worked and it looked
broken: the row grew, the columns beside it jumped, and a table half in edit
mode reads as a rendering fault rather than as a form. The project already had
the answer — EditDatacenter, whose own header comment says it avoids exactly
that row-height jump — and the seats table simply did not use it.
EditSeat is now a ModalComponent. A modal is reachable WITHOUT the page's route
middleware, so it resolves the customer itself and re-reads the record rather
than trusting a hydrated property: a forged addressEditable would otherwise
open the address of an accepted seat, and the address is the person — editing
it hands one employee's access to another with nobody told. Only an invitation
still in flight can have its address corrected, which is the case that actually
comes up.
The actions column is now always drawn. It used to disappear when the only seat
was the owner, on the reasoning that there was nothing to act on. But every
seat can be renamed, and a column that vanishes does not read as "not
applicable here" — it reads as "this product cannot do that", which is how it
was reported, three times. The owner's row says "Geschützt" rather than leaving
an empty cell.
Also caught here: the edit fields carried class-wide #[Validate] attributes, so
an empty edit form made the INVITE button fail on a field the invite form does
not have. Rules for an action belong to the action.
── The update button
"I cannot run an update, it says everything is current." `behind` is a READING
taken by the agent every five minutes, not the state of the world — push a
commit and the console insists it is up to date and refuses to act. The agent
does its own fetch before deciding, so asking against a stale reading costs one
fetch and finds nothing; being locked out costs the deployment. The button is
now offered whenever an agent is alive and no run is in flight, labelled for
what it does rather than for what the last reading said.
── The update never announced that it had finished
Because the thing being watched restarts the thing doing the watching. Mid-run
every wire:poll request fails, and what answers afterwards is a new build being
questioned by the old page's JavaScript — so the card sat on "läuft" until
somebody reloaded by hand. A small Alpine watcher now asks a plain JSON
endpoint (no Livewire, no component state, no assets), treats a failed request
as the restart rather than as a fault worth giving up over, and reloads once
the build it is looking at is no longer the build it started with.
── Support
The page was a decorated placeholder: a button that raised a toast saying the
form was "only hinted at in the prototype", three invented ticket titles living
in the translation file, and no way to see what became of anything. It looked
thin because nothing on it was real.
It now leads with the customer's own requests — what somebody arriving here
wants to know is what they asked and whether anyone answered — with contact
details moved to the side where they belong. The form attaches the plan, the
instance and who is asking automatically: making a customer describe their own
server back to the people who built it is the part of support people hate. FAQ
answers end where the thing can actually be done, and "is it me or is it you"
is answered by a link to the status page.

The console announced an update for "spätestens um 15:21" while the clock on
the wall said 17:21. Not a formatting slip in one string: fourteen views and
four components printed database values straight out, so every absolute time in
the product was two hours out all summer and one hour out all winter.
Two of those views looked as though they had handled it. They called
->timezone(config('app.timezone'))
which reads like "convert to local time" and, app.timezone being the STORAGE
zone that must stay UTC, converts to UTC — a no-op wearing the costume of a
fix, which is worse than no call at all because it stops the next person
looking. That exact string is now banned by test.
Worse than the labels were two FORMS. Maintenance windows and plan versions
filled their datetime-local fields from UTC and parsed what came back as UTC. A
datetime-local field carries no offset — it is the digits a person reads off
their own clock — so an operator typing 21:00 scheduled a window for 23:00
their time, and nothing anywhere said so. App\Support\LocalTime now holds
toField() and fromField() side by side, because getting one end right is not
half a fix, it is a fresh bug.
The mechanism is one Carbon macro, ->local(). It copies before converting:
Illuminate\Support\Carbon is mutable, so without that, rendering a timestamp
would rewrite the model attribute as a side effect and anything comparing or
saving it afterwards would be an hour or two out. Both Carbon classes get the
same body — Carbon keeps macros in one global table, so the second registration
replaces the first for every Carbon class, and two different bodies meant the
immutable version, safe for itself, silently became the mutable one's
implementation too. My own test caught that.
The existing tests had not caught any of this because they built their expected
values with the same wrong call the views used — a test that recomputes the
implementation asserts nothing. They now assert the wall clock, and the queued
update additionally asserts that the UTC time is NOT shown.
Recorded as R19 in CLAUDE.md and enforced by tests/Feature/DisplayTimezoneTest:
no Blade or Livewire component may format an absolute time without ->local(),
the UTC no-op is banned, storage stays UTC, both sides of the DST boundary are
checked, ->local() must not mutate, and a form field must round-trip to the
same instant.

The demo customer is a genuine login on a panel that answers from the public
internet. A default password in a seeder would sit on production for as long as
the demo does, and "it is only the demo account" is how the first one gets
taken. It now takes DEMO_PASSWORD if the operator sets one and otherwise mints
a 24-character random password, printed once at seed time.

The panel had been built by reading the template and believing the result.
Every round of review found the same class of defect, so this round the
template was rendered in a browser and measured with getComputedStyle, and the
implementation measured the same way — two number columns instead of an
opinion.
That immediately settled a disagreement: a review of the template's SOURCE said
the metric grid used a 20px gap. Rendered, it is 14px. The measurement wins.
Brought to the template's figures: label 11.5px (it was 11px in three separate
places, which is how it drifted — it is now one .lbl rule), value tracking
-0.02em, unit weight 450, metric row 6px above and 14px between, page head
centred with a 14px gap, grid gap 14px, columns switching at 1101/561px and the
h1 at 901px to match the template's own breakpoints, ring 62px, bar 5px.
The shared button now takes its height from min-height (40px) rather than
vertical padding, at 14px/600 with 0 18px padding and a 10px radius — a button
keeps its height whatever sits inside it, icon, spinner or bare text.
Also here, from the same round of review:
- The chart's blue border was Tailwind's own `ring` utility colliding with a
component class of the same name. Renamed to `.metric-ring`. This was
dismissed once as a screenshot artefact; it was real.
- Page titles lost the `sm:text-3xl` (40px) an earlier bulk edit had appended
to 23 of them. The template's h1 is 30px.
- The users table has its actions back — edit, suspend, lock and delete — for
every seat that is not the owner, with the owner refused in the action itself
and not merely hidden in the markup.
DemoCustomerSeeder writes one complete customer as real rows: instance,
subscription, six seats across four roles, a backup, current-period traffic and
thirty days of samples with a deliberate wobble and one day at 286/288 checks.
Nothing in the panel is drawn from a fixture any more, so anything missing
shows up as missing. Removing the demo is one deletion.
Verified: 607 tests, and a Codex comparison of the two measurement sets —
"a person would call them the same design", the only difference a 1px gap.

Availability is now counted from our own monitoring answers. Uptime Kuma knows
the figure, but the REST bridge in front of it only answers "healthy, yes or
no", and waiting for the bridge to grow an endpoint would have left the panel
without the number indefinitely. The sync already asks on a schedule; counting
the answers gives a percentage that is ours and explainable.
An unanswered check is not a failed one — the counter only moves when a real
answer arrived, so our monitoring going down does not become the customer's
outage on the one figure they are asked to trust. An instance nobody has ever
checked shows no availability rather than 100 %.
The downgrade path existed nowhere. Going down is not the mirror of going up:
it can ask an instance to hold more than the target plan allows. Smaller plans
are now listed even when they cannot be taken, with the obstacle in the
customer's own numbers — "you have 31 users, this package allows 10" — because
a greyed-out button that does not name what is in the way is the thing people
ring about. Storage is checked against the last real reading rather than the
contractual allowance, or anyone who once bought a large plan could never leave
it. The limit is re-checked in the action: a rule enforced only in markup is
not enforced.
And the smaller corrections from this round:
- The cloud tab carried a hardcoded "B" as the instance's initial, and the PHP
and MariaDB versions, which tell a tenant nothing they can act on.
- "EU — Serverstandort im Angebot festgehalten" under a label already reading
"Serverstandort" was two sentences saying nothing. It is the country.
- Support promised a reply "binnen 4 Std." with nothing behind it. What is true
everywhere else is an answer on the same working day.
- The actions column appeared even when no row in the table had an action.

The panel could not show the storage ring or the transfer trend because nothing
measured them. instance_traffic keeps one row per billing period — right for an
allowance, useless as a series — and storage consumption was never sampled at
all, so the card could only ever state what was sold rather than what is used.
instance_metrics holds one row per instance per day, written by the traffic
collector on the visit it already makes. A second scheduler entry against the
same Proxmox API would have doubled the load and the failure modes for no gain.
Disk usage comes from `df` inside the guest rather than from Proxmox's own disk
figure, which reports the allocated image: that would show every customer a full
500 GB from their first day.
The rule the whole thing is built on: a reading that could not be taken is not a
reading of zero. The disk columns are nullable and left untouched when the guest
agent does not answer, so yesterday's figure stands instead of the ring dropping
to empty — which would tell a customer their data had vanished. Missing days
stay missing in the series rather than being filled with zeroes, which would
draw an outage that never happened. Both are covered by tests.

Card by card against the approved template: label with a chevron, the figure
and its unit on one line, a line of context underneath, a bar across the foot.
The order matches too — storage, seats, transfer, then the fourth slot.
Three of the template's four visuals have no data behind them, and the code now
says so where someone will read it rather than leaving the next person to
wonder why the charts are missing:
- Storage consumption is never sampled. The card states the contractually
agreed allowance instead of drawing a ring at an invented level.
- instance_traffic keeps one row per period, not a daily series, so there is
nothing to draw a sparkline from. The share of the allowance is real, so
that card carries a bar.
- monitoring_targets records a state and a check time but no uptime figure, so
there is no availability percentage to show. That slot carries the last
backup — the thing this product is about and can actually prove.

The dashboard was built to my own idea of the layout rather than to the
template that was signed off: a coloured pill where the template has a stamped
mono line, bare figures where it has a label with a chevron, a unit on its own
line instead of beside the number, and no ring at all. There is no point
agreeing a design and then building something adjacent to it. The metric card
is now a component that draws the template's form, and the pages use it.
Two more places were still showing data that does not exist:
- Support listed three tickets to every customer, complete with reference
numbers and dates. There is no ticket model; it was fixture text. A request
list also belongs in the console, where an operator can see who filed what.
Removed until there is something real behind it.
- The datacentre name reached the customer through the cloud tab's copy as
well. Customer surfaces name the jurisdiction; the building is operator
information.
And the actions column rendered an empty cell for the owner, who can be neither
re-invited nor revoked. An empty cell reads as a missing feature; it now says
so with a dash and a title.

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.

The console was a second product. admin-tokens.css held a complete dark set —
its own surfaces, its own orange, its own status triad — so every shared
component had to work in two worlds, and the two halves of the application
drifted apart in ways nobody could see from inside either one. That file now
carries density and nothing else: smaller type, tighter rows, tighter corners.
Colour comes from one place.
The tokens themselves are rebuilt around what the redesign settled on:
- Radii scaled to object size (9/11/16/22) instead of one value everywhere,
which is what made the interface read as a design-system specification
rather than as a product.
- Warm, broad, low shadows. A neutral grey drop shadow belongs to a different
design language and reads as cold on this ground.
- --accent-press, which several rules already referenced and nothing defined.
An undefined var() does not make a browser skip the declaration; it computes
to , and for background-color that is transparent — the accent button
lost its fill on hover and left white text on white.
- No serif. A serif headline is what made every page read as a document, which
is the impression the whole redesign exists to remove. --font-serif now
points at the sans so nothing breaks while call sites are cleaned up.
The two shells are one shell with two configurations, and both finally have a
mobile navigation: the sidebar used to simply disappear below 900px, leaving no
way to move around the application at all on a phone.
The customer dashboard is bound to real records — instance, seats, traffic,
backups, contract — instead of the fixtures it shipped with. Where something is
not measured, storage consumption, it says what was contractually agreed rather
than inventing a figure. This is the sheet a customer forwards to their auditor.

Safari zooms when a focused input is smaller than 16px, and then leaves the page
zoomed — so on an iPhone every form throws the layout about, and the way back is
a pinch. The usual fix is the meta-viewport switch, which suppresses the zoom by
disabling pinch-zoom entirely: it takes a real accessibility feature away from
everyone to solve a cosmetic problem for some. Sizing the fields at 16px on
touch devices removes the reason instead.
!important on purpose: it has to beat every text-size utility on every field in
the application, and a rule that loses to `text-sm` on one form is worth
nothing. Checkboxes and radios are left alone — no text to inflate, and sizing
them there breaks the box.
Also -webkit-text-size-adjust, so iOS stops inflating body copy in landscape.

The gateway is restarted twice in a deployment — once by `up -d`, then again
after the hub whose network namespace it lives in — and `docker compose exec`
into a container that is still coming up fails outright rather than waiting.
Twenty seconds did not cover that, so the first run of the new probe reported a
gateway that answers as down, and the resolver stayed out of client configs for
one more deployment.
The health site also now binds the hub address instead of only matching on it.
Nothing was published either way, but the file should do what its comment says.

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

An empty 404 is itself information: it says something terminates TLS here and
chose not to answer. The console and the websocket endpoint now close the
connection instead, which is what a hostname that serves nothing looks like.
The websocket endpoint answers a genuine upgrade — verified live, 101 — and
nothing else; a browser opening it gets a closed connection.
Reviewing that turned up two holes that mattered more than the thing being
reviewed.
The compose defaults published the application and Reverb on every interface.
Docker publishes ports ahead of UFW, so those backends were reachable from the
internet with the firewall closed — and reaching a backend directly skips the
proxy, and with it every hostname and address rule keeping the console private.
The defaults are loopback now, and an update rebinds an existing installation
that is behind a proxy actually running and holding 443. A development box
without one is left alone, because taking its port away would look like the
machine had broken.
And the console's own "open" switch was emitting 0.0.0.0/0 into the proxy's
allowlist. One click would have put the console on the public internet, which
is the exact state the owner's rule exists to prevent. Switching it off relaxes
the application's check; the proxy keeps its list, always.
The reference proxy config carries the arrangement: QUIC early data off, since
an address-based decision taken on 0-RTT can answer 425 and some browsers do
not retry — an intermittent lockout from the console is the worst kind — and
explicit handling for plain HTTP, whose automatic redirect otherwise announces
both hidden names to anyone who asks.

Two things reported success while the tunnel console was unreachable.
The services were restarted the moment the hub container counted as started,
but the hub brings wg0 up as part of its start command — so they were binding an
address that did not exist yet. They now wait for the interface.
And readiness was a container-state check. A container can be up and running
while the process inside it listens in a network namespace that was torn down
underneath it: nothing errors, the address simply refuses connections, and
"running" reports everything fine. It asks the gateway now, and only a real
answer counts — because the consequence of getting this wrong is a client
config naming a resolver that is not there, which takes the device's whole name
resolution with it for as long as the tunnel is up.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Both VPN services share the provisioning container's network namespace, and a
process holds the namespace it started in. Restarting the hub — which every
deploy does, to pick up new code — therefore leaves them listening inside a
namespace that no longer exists.
Nothing errors. The containers stay up, Caddy's log still reports it is serving
on the tunnel address, and connections to that address are simply refused. It
looks precisely like a gateway that never worked, which is how it presented on
the live server after the first successful start.
