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.

The marketing page was a generic centred hero in the system font stack: it
neither used the design system the console is built on nor looked like the
product it sells. Rebuilt around what CluPilot actually promises — security you
can produce evidence for — so the page reads as a controlled technical
document: a specification plate instead of a hero image, numbered sections, an
audit register with rhythm and proof per measure, and a price sheet rather than
floating cards. IBM Plex Serif joins Sans and Mono as the display voice, self
hosted as static files so the public page renders even without the Vite build.
The prices were written into the page by hand, and the page and the catalogue
had already drifted apart on three of four plans: the site advertised 249 € for
a plan the checkout charges 399 € for. The sheet now reads the catalogue, like
every other caller — including the currency, which is configurable and was also
hard-coded here.
The catalogue fails loudly on purpose; a public website must not. A broken or
overlapping catalogue is caught in the controller alone: the page still
renders, the sheet is replaced by "on request", and nobody is quoted a number
the checkout would not honour.
The sign-in and registration panels shared a copy-pasted orange gradient. They
now share one component and the same ink plate as the site, so the two halves
of the product no longer look like two companies.

The owner can now do from the console what only a config edit could do before:
create a plan line, draft a version, price it, publish it into a window, and
pull a plan out of the shop.
Two pages and one modal, because the catalogue has exactly two levels. The
plan list is a name, a rank and a kill switch. Everything that can be got
wrong — capabilities, prices, windows — lives on the versions, where the page
is built around the one rule that matters: a draft is freely editable, a
published version is not touchable at all. So drafting and publishing are
separate acts, and publishing says plainly that it is final.
The console refuses everything the catalogue refuses, on the form rather than
as a stack trace: an overlapping window, a window that ends before it starts,
a version with no price for a term we sell on, and — new here — a version with
no VM template, which would be bought and then fail provisioning every time.
Numbers are bounded on both sides, because a mistyped price otherwise
overflows the column and answers with a 500 instead of saying which field was
wrong. Performance class and features are picked from the keys we have labels
for; free text would be frozen at publication and shown to customers as a raw
translation key forever.
Concurrency, since two admins share one catalogue: draft numbers are allocated
under a lock on the family, publication is an atomic conditional claim, and
discarding a draft is one statement conditional on it still being a draft —
otherwise a draft published in the meantime could be deleted out from under
the customers now contracted to it.
`plans.manage` (Owner and Admin) guards the pages themselves, not only the
buttons, and the modal authorises itself — prices, drafts and unreleased plans
are not something to leave readable to anyone who types the URL.
Also fixes the shared checkbox, which ticked in the browser's own blue on
every page that used one: a native checkbox ignores text colour and needs
accent-color.
Verified in the browser: withdrawing a plan in the console removes it from the
customer's billing page immediately, and restoring it brings it back. The
public landing page carries no catalogue-driven plan list, so there is nothing
there to hide.
421 tests green. Codex review clean after six rounds.

An access created without storing its config had no download button and no
explanation — it looked broken. It now shows a dimmed button that says why
(the private key only exists on your device), and every staff access gets
"Re-issue": a new keypair, old key off the hub before the new one goes on,
so two peers never claim the same tunnel address at once. A stored config is
re-encrypted in step, or the owner would download a key the hub no longer
accepts.
Host peers are excluded: their key belongs to the machine's own wg0, and
swapping it here would cut the host off with nothing left to repair it.

The action labels wrapped to two lines and crushed the column — now icon
buttons with tooltips, like every other admin table. The form column was too
narrow for its content: the datetime fields silently clipped their own value,
so they are stacked and full width now, with duration chips because typing an
end timestamp by hand is the fiddliest part of the form. Host rows show a real
selected state and a per-datacenter count, and the impact column says
"1 Host · 1 Kunde" instead of "Host(s) · Kunde(n)".

Reworked after a design consultation with Codex, which pushed back on my first
proposal in three useful ways.
Ownership and rights:
- vpn.manage split into vpn.view.all and vpn.manage.all. Seeing an access is
not managing it, and neither is holding its private key.
- Record-level rules live in VpnPeerPolicy, not in permissions: an access
belongs to a person, and ownership is what grants sight of it. Every operator
reaches the page, but sees only their own unless they may see all.
- Issuing an access is not self-service — it reaches the management network, so
it needs vpn.manage.all even for oneself.
- New Developer role: sees everything, manages nothing. Writing code does not
imply authority over other people's access.
- kind (staff|host|system) replaces a null user_id that had to mean two
different things at once.
Config storage, opt-in per access:
- Downloading is owner-only — explicitly NOT for view.all or manage.all. An
admin who needs access revokes this one and issues their own, which keeps the
record of who holds what honest.
- The password is asked on EVERY retrieval, rate-limited. Laravel's
password.confirm keeps a 15-minute session stamp, which would authorise
unlimited later downloads from an unattended browser.
- Stored under VPN_CONFIG_KEY, not APP_KEY: a leaked application key must not
also hand over the management network. Purged on revocation and when a staff
member is revoked — console taken away, tunnel left open was the worst case.
- The plaintext never enters a Livewire snapshot (the page polls every five
seconds); the component carries an opaque handle instead.
Also: copy button works without HTTPS again (navigator.clipboard only exists in
a secure context, so over http it silently did nothing), plus config download
as a file and a QR code for the mobile apps.

The console can now create, block and remove VPN accesses, and shows who is
actually connected — traffic counters, source endpoint and last handshake.
Design notes:
- The web container has no wg0, so the page never talks to WireGuard. Live
state is copied in by SyncVpnPeers on the provisioning queue (the only worker
whose container owns the interface); the page polls the database and merely
nudges that job, throttled so many open tabs cannot flood the queue.
- enabled (operator intent) and present (observed on the hub) are stored
separately, so a sync can never quietly undo a block and drift stays visible
as "wird angewendet".
- The sync adopts peers the host pipeline registered, naming them after their
host — otherwise "who is on the VPN" would have blind spots.
- Keypairs are generated in PHP via libsodium rather than shelling out to
wg genkey (no interface in this container, and it keeps generation testable).
The private key is shown once and never stored.
- allocateIp() now also considers vpn_peers, which would otherwise be handed a
tunnel address a host already holds.
- vpn.manage is a new capability held by Owner/Admin only, and it hides the nav
entry too — a VPN access reaches the management network.
Verified end to end against the real hub, not just mocks: created an access in
the browser, connected with the generated config, watched the console flip to
"Verbunden" with real counters, then blocked it and confirmed the peer was
gone from wg0 and the client could no longer handshake.

- customers gain profile + branding + closed_at; instances gain cancellation
fields; branding resolver (NULL -> CluPilot defaults) snapshotted into the
provisioning run context
- cancel package: term-end, irreversible, typed-confirm modal (R5)
- close account: guarded (no active package), typed-confirm modal (R5)

Real hosts list, add-host form (StartHostOnboarding), host detail with live
progress stepper (Reverb + wire:poll fallback), retry failed run, remove via
wire-elements/modal (deregister only). DE+EN. 8 tests.

Separate admin console at /admin, gated to is_admin users (EnsureAdmin middleware
+ migration/seed; a plain customer user is seeded to prove the gate). Distinct dark
aesthetic achieved purely by token scoping: .theme-admin overrides every CSS design
token to a dark graphite / signal-orange palette, so ALL shared components (button,
card, badge, table, stat, chart) render dark with zero new markup (R3). Chart island
now reads tokens from its own element, so charts are theme-aware.
Sections (each full-page class-based Livewire, English routes R13, localized DE/EN):
- Overview: fleet KPIs, fleet-growth line, host-load bars, MRR bars, active runs, alerts.
- Customers: table + plan doughnut. Instances: fleet table (vmid/host/storage).
- Hosts: capacity cards (storage/CPU bars). Provisioning: runs table + live stepper.
- Revenue: MRR/ARR/ARPU/churn KPIs, MRR line, plan doughnut, recent payments.
- Locale-aware month labels/currency (Carbon/Number).
18 new Pest tests (guest redirect / non-admin 403 / admin render per section) → 44
green. R12 browser: all six admin pages HTTP 200, ZERO console errors (Chart.js dark).
Codex (R15) — clean.

- Chart.js as an Alpine island (x-ui.chart): configs are PHP arrays; colours use
token: strings resolved from CSS design tokens at runtime (R3). Respects
reduced-motion; IBM Plex chart defaults.
- Tokens: soft --radius-xl (20px), --success-bright for dots/rings/charts.
Staggered 'rise' reveal keyframe. Global toast in the app shell.
- Overview rebuilt to the customer template: storage doughnut ring, availability
sparkline, KPI tiles, upsell, cloud card, interactive onboarding checklist
(Alpine), backups, modules (Lucide icons — no emoji, R9), activity feed.
- Locale-aware fixture display: Carbon isoFormat dates + Number::format sizes so
the EN dashboard is not mixed-language (R16).
- 14 Pest tests green; R12 browser: /dashboard 0 console errors with Chart.js;
R7 no overflow at 375/768/1280. Reviewed with Codex (R15) — clean.
