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.

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.

- isOperator()/EnsureAdmin/broadcast fall back to is_admin so a legacy admin is
never locked out by a stale permission cache
- published modal: centered max-w-lg card (dynamic modalWidth class was purged
by Tailwind → full-width)
- datacenter edit moved to a modal (no row-height jump); location is now a
country dropdown (config/countries.php) instead of free text

- 5 operator roles (Owner/Admin/Support/Billing/Read-only) seeded via migration
with a capability catalogue; app checks capabilities via Gate, never role names
- every mutating admin action authorizes server-side (hosts/datacenters/customers/
impersonate/provisioning); is_admin reads migrated to console.view / isOperator()
- admin /settings: own account + Owner-only staff invite/role/revoke with
last-owner, self-role and customer-collision guards (transactional)
- sidebar 'zum Kundenportal' link replaced with Settings

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.
