Phase 3 of the deploy-hardening I master bundle. Extends the
target.Connector interface with the dry-run method that operators
will use to preview a deploy before committing — but ships only the
default-stub for all 13 connectors. Phases 4-9 replace each stub
with the real validate-with-the-target implementation.
interface.go:
- Add ErrValidateOnlyNotSupported sentinel (frozen decision 0.6 —
connectors that cannot dry-run, like K8s, return this rather than
nil so operator triage can errors.Is for "not supported" vs
"validated successfully").
- Add ValidateOnly(ctx, request DeploymentRequest) error to
Connector interface.
13 new validate_only.go files (one per connector at
internal/connector/target/<name>/validate_only.go):
- apache, caddy, envoy, f5, haproxy, iis, javakeystore, k8ssecret,
nginx, postfix, ssh, traefik, wincertstore.
- Each file is identical except for the package declaration: a
one-method default stub returning target.ErrValidateOnlyNotSupported.
- Per-connector files (rather than a single embed-method approach)
let Phases 4-9 replace each connector's stub independently
without churning a shared base.
Tests:
- internal/connector/target/validate_only_test.go pins the sentinel
contract (errors.Is identity, Error() string, %w wrap propagation).
- internal/connector/target/validate_only_smoke_test.go (external
test package) constructs a zero-value &<pkg>.Connector{} for each
of the 13 connectors and asserts ValidateOnly returns
ErrValidateOnlyNotSupported. The test's
connectorsAtPhase3 list is the load-bearing CI guard:
- A 14th connector added without wiring ValidateOnly fails the
`len(connectorsAtPhase3) != 13` invariant.
- A connector whose real ValidateOnly lands (Phase 4 NGINX, Phase
5 Apache, etc.) MUST be removed from this list or the smoke test
fails (real impl no longer returns the sentinel). That removal
IS the bookkeeping that the operator-visible bit + behavior
change are wired together end-to-end.
Compile + go vet + golangci-lint v2.11.4 + go test all 0 issues.
Phase 4 next: NGINX canonical real-impl — replace the stub with
nginx -t -c <temp>; same time replace the existing os.WriteFile
flow in DeployCertificate with deploy.Apply(...).
SA1029: use typed context key instead of string in main_test.go
S1039: remove unnecessary fmt.Sprintf in validation_test.go
SA4023: fix unreachable nil check on concrete error type
SA4006: fix unused variable assignments in stepca_test.go (4 occurrences)
SA4000: fix duplicate expression in ssh_test.go (BEGIN vs END CERTIFICATE)

Close coverage gaps identified by dual-audit (qualitative + quantitative).
New test files for config (0%→98%), router (0%→100%), handler validation,
health, audit, response helpers, webhook notifier (0%→88%), email notifier,
middleware (recovery, rate limiter), domain profile, service nil-safety,
config helpers, issuer bootstrap, and server bootstrap wiring. Expanded
existing tests for ACME (34%→42%), step-ca (42%→52%), F5, SSH, agent
(43%→63%), scheduler (88%→99%), renewal service, and issuerfactory.
All tests pass: go test -short, go vet, go test -race clean.

Adds a new target connector enabling certificate deployment to any
Linux/Unix server without installing the certctl agent binary. Uses the
proxy agent pattern — a single agent in the same network zone deploys
certs to remote servers over SSH/SFTP.
Key additions:
- SSH/SFTP connector with key auth (file/inline) + password auth
- Injectable SSHClient interface for cross-platform testing (25 tests)
- Shell injection prevention via validation.ValidateShellCommand()
- Configurable cert/key/chain paths with octal permissions
- GUI: 11 SSH config fields in target create wizard
Also fixes pre-existing frontend bug where all target type strings
(nginx, apache, etc.) were sent as lowercase but the backend expects
proper-case (NGINX, Apache, etc.), breaking GUI-created targets.
Adds missing TargetTypeSSH to validTargetTypes service map.
