docs: factuality sweep — fix 3 broken links + 12 count claims (audit findings 2026-05-05)
Per the cowork/docs-audit-2026-05-05/ end-to-end factuality audit (20 confirmed findings across 76 docs, 7 parallel subagents + audit-of-the-audit). Hot + Warm tier fixes ship here; STALE findings (qa-test-suite.md test-count snapshot) need 'make qa-stats' which is operator-side. BROKEN links repaired (3): - docs/reference/api.md L195: [Quick Start](quickstart.md) → ../getting-started/quickstart.md (404 pre-fix) - docs/reference/api.md L196: [Connector Guide](connectors.md) → connectors/index.md (Phase 4 rename, was 404 pre-fix) - docs/reference/protocols/scep-intune.md L377: [legacy-est-scep.md](legacy-est-scep.md) → scep-server.md (file was deleted in Phase 7 commit |

docs: retire compliance subtree + sweep framework name-drops from prose
Per operator decision the framework-mapping docs are gone. They
were aspirational (no audit, no certification, no validated
mapping); keeping them around was misleading.
Files deleted (1,883 lines):
- docs/compliance/index.md
- docs/compliance/soc2.md
- docs/compliance/pci-dss.md
- docs/compliance/nist-sp-800-57.md
Hyperlinks removed:
- README.md: 'Auditor / compliance' row in the doc table; the
'(compliance mapping included)' parenthetical in the
positioning paragraph
- docs/README.md: the '## Compliance' section table; the
'Auditor / compliance team' reading-order-by-role row
Prose name-drops swept across 24 files:
- README.md: 'FedRAMP boundary CAs / financial-services policy
CAs' → '4-level boundary CAs / 3-level policy CAs';
'Compliance-grade for PCI-DSS Level 1, FedRAMP Moderate / High,
SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA' → cut entirely
- getting-started/{quickstart,concepts,examples,why-certctl,
advanced-demo}.md: 'compliance' → 'audit' / 'policy';
'PCI-DSS / SOC 2 / NIST SP 800-57' framework lists cut;
''pci': 'true'' tag example → ''environment': 'production''
- migration/cert-manager-coexistence.md: 'compliance rules' →
'policy rules'
- operator/approval-workflow.md: 'Compliance customers (PCI-DSS
Level 1, FedRAMP Moderate / High, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA)' →
'Operators'; entire 'Compliance control mapping' table
(PCI-DSS §6.4.5 / NIST SP 800-53 SA-15 / SOC 2 Type II CC6.1
/ HIPAA §164.308(a)(4)) deleted; 'compliance contract' →
'two-person-integrity contract'; 'compliance auditors' →
'reviewers'
- operator/legacy-clients-tls-1.2.md: 'PCI-DSS v4.0 Req 4 §2.2.5'
audit-reference → CWE-326 (kept); 'PCI-DSS Req 4 §2.2.5
attestation' section retitled to 'TLS posture summary' and
rewritten without framework framing; 'PCI-DSS, NIST, and
major browsers will eventually deprecate TLS 1.2' →
'Major browsers and OS vendors will eventually deprecate
TLS 1.2'
- operator/database-tls.md: PCI-DSS Req 4 §2.2.5 audit-ref →
CWE-319 only; 'PCI-DSS scope' → 'sensitive data'; PCI-DSS
Req 4 v4.0 prose footing → cut
- operator/runbooks/disaster-recovery.md: 'SOC 2 / PCI
procurement-team deliverable' → 'on-call deliverable';
'compliance auditors' → 'reviewers'
- reference/connectors/{acme,aws-acm,azure-kv,globalsign,
local-ca,openssl,ssh,index}.md: 'compliance reporting
(PCI-DSS §3.6, HIPAA §164.312)' → 'audit reporting';
'Compliance environments (PCI-DSS Level 1, FedRAMP High,
HIPAA)' → 'Regulated environments'; 'compliance audits' →
'audit'; 'FedRAMP boundary CA' pattern names →
'4-level boundary CA' (technically descriptive)
- reference/protocols/est.md: 'compliance-hook seam' →
'device-state hook seam'; 'compliance gating' → 'device-state
gating'; 'est_compliance_failed' → 'est_device_state_failed'
- reference/protocols/scep-intune.md: 'Optional compliance
check' → 'Optional device-state check'; failure-counter
'compliance_failed' → 'device_state_failed'; 'Conditional
Access compliance gating' → 'Conditional Access
device-state gating'
- reference/intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md: 'FedRAMP boundary-CA
deployments where the regulator requires...' →
'Boundary-CA deployments where you want separation of policy
and issuing authorities'; pattern A retitled '4-level FedRAMP
boundary CA' → '4-level boundary CA'
- reference/architecture.md: broken Related-docs link to
compliance.md removed; the rest of that block had stale
pre-Phase-2 paths (quickstart.md, demo-advanced.md,
connectors.md, openapi.md, testing-guide.md, test-env.md) —
retargeted to current locations
- reference/deployment-model.md: 'SOC 2 evidence-report
generator' → 'Audit-evidence report generator'
- reference/vendor-matrix.md: 'SOC 2 / PCI auditors paste this
into evidence packs' → 'reviewers paste this into
vendor-evaluation packs'
- contributor/qa-test-suite.md: 'compliance exist' coverage
description cut; 'Compliance (PCI / SOC2 / HIPAA-relevant)'
risk-class label → 'Audit-relevant'
What was kept:
- CWE references (legitimate technical pointers)
- Microsoft API/feature names that happen to use 'compliance'
literally ('Microsoft Graph compliance API',
'device-compliance validators' — these are MS product names,
not framework name-drops)
- 'NIST PQC' on the landing page (Post-Quantum Cryptography is
the actual NIST standard family, not a compliance framework)
Verified: zero hyperlinks into docs/compliance/ remain. All 24
ci-guards/*.sh pass locally. qa-doc-seed-count.sh clean.
Net diff: 26 files / -1,883 deletions in compliance/ + -32 net
across the prose sweep.
Companion edits in cowork/ (CLAUDE.md doc-tree summary +
WORKSPACE-CHANGELOG.md retirement note) land separately.

docs: Phase 4 follow-on batch 3 — 5 file-based target per-pages
Extracts the file-based deploy target connectors: - haproxy.md (107 lines) — combined-PEM (cert+chain+key) deploy with haproxy -c validate; multi-frontend + crt-list directory guidance - traefik.md (105 lines) — file-provider zero-reload deploy; file watcher latency notes; mixing with built-in ACME guidance - caddy.md (100 lines) — admin API mode (recommended) vs file mode; admin-API exposure threat model - envoy.md (112 lines) — file SDS mode (recommended) vs static bootstrap; service-mesh interactions - postfix.md (175 lines) — dual-mode (Postfix MTA / Dovecot IMAPS) connector with daemon-specific quirks (STARTTLS chain expectations, no shared session cache); Bundle 11 test pins Index forward-list expanded to enumerate all 10 target connectors (5 from Phase 4 structural + 5 from this batch) in alphabetical order. This is part 3 of 4 for the Phase 4 follow-on (per-connector page extraction) tracked in cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-2-restructure-2026-05-04/log.md. Net add: 5 files, 599 lines.

docs: Phase 4 follow-on batch 2 — 8 remaining issuer per-pages
Extracts the rest of the issuer per-connector deep-dive pages: - local-ca.md (170 lines) — Local CA self-signed / sub-CA / tree mode, CRL+OCSP endpoints, EKU support, MaxTTL enforcement, L-014 file-on- disk threat model carve-out - acme.md (235 lines) — RFC 8555 v2 client (HTTP-01 / DNS-01 / DNS-PERSIST-01), ARI per RFC 9773, EAB + ZeroSSL auto-EAB, Let's Encrypt profile selection, revoke-by-serial Top-10 fix #7 - step-ca.md (99 lines) — Smallstep JWK-provisioner synchronous issuance with MaxTTL enforcement - openssl.md (157 lines) — script-based shell-out with full threat model (what's accepted, what's not, mitigations, V3-Pro forward path) - sectigo.md (98 lines) — Sectigo SCM REST with bounded async polling - google-cas.md (89 lines) — GCP managed private CA with OAuth2 service-account auth + IAM-role guidance - entrust.md (96 lines) — Entrust CA Gateway mTLS-authenticated with approval-pending support and mTLS keypair caching - globalsign.md (122 lines) — Atlas HVCA dual auth (mTLS + API key/secret), region-aware base URLs, mTLS keypair caching Index forward-list expanded to enumerate all 13 issuer connectors (including the 5 pages from batch 1) in alphabetical order. This is part 2 of 4 for the Phase 4 follow-on (per-connector page extraction) tracked in cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-2-restructure-2026-05-04/log.md. Net add: 8 files, 1,066 lines.

docs: Phase 4 follow-on batch 1 — 5 issuer per-pages
Extract the first 5 issuer per-connector deep-dive pages: - vault.md (128 lines) — Vault PKI synchronous issuance, token TTL + auto-renewal loop, MaxTTL enforcement, rotation playbook - digicert.md (106 lines) — CertCentral DV/OV/EV with bounded async polling for vetting workflows - aws-acm-pca.md (165 lines) — managed private CA on AWS with full IAM policy, IRSA wiring, troubleshooting matrix - ejbca.md (116 lines) — open-source / Keyfactor EJBCA with mTLS or OAuth2 auth, mTLS keypair caching, approval-pending guidance - adcs.md (111 lines) — Active Directory Certificate Services as enterprise root via Local CA sub-CA mode, sub-CA rotation playbook Index updated with forward-list entries and the index-purpose blurb revised so the index now positions itself as 'navigate from here; deeper material lives in siblings' rather than 'docs to be extracted later'. Each per-page follows the WHAT/HOW/WHY pattern: what the connector is, how authentication and issuance work, and when to choose this vs an alternative. Cross-links to the connector index, async-ca-polling primitive, and adjacent operator runbooks. This is part 1 of 4 for the Phase 4 follow-on (per-connector page extraction) tracked in cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-2-restructure-2026-05-04/log.md. Net add: 5 files, 626 lines. No content removed from index.md (the index keeps its inline reference; per-pages add operator depth on top, matching the pattern set by apache/f5/iis/k8s/nginx in Phase 4 structural). |

docs: Phase 5 — testing-guide.md prune (8268 → 0 lines, content dispersed)
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/
and the section-by-section plan in testing-guide-tumor.md.
testing-guide.md was 30% of all docs/ content (8268 lines) but was
integration test code written in markdown, not operator documentation.
The audit's tumor analysis disposed of every Part:
- ~65% DELETE (test cases that already exist in code)
- ~22% MOVE to inline test code
- ~8% KEEP-COMPRESSED into focused operator-runbook docs
- Title + contents + release sign-off ~5% KEEP
This commit ships the KEEP-COMPRESSED dispersal:
docs/contributor/qa-prerequisites.md (NEW, ~120 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Prerequisites" section. Stack boot procedure,
demo data baseline, reference IDs operators reuse across QA docs.
docs/contributor/gui-qa-checklist.md (NEW, ~105 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Part 35: GUI Testing". Manual GUI verification
pass for release sign-off. 25-row table covering every dashboard page.
docs/contributor/release-sign-off.md (NEW, ~130 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Release Sign-Off" section (originally 1009
lines of per-test detail tables). Compressed to a release-day
checklist organized by gate category: code state, automated gates,
manual QA passes, release artefact verification, branch protection,
post-release.
docs/operator/performance-baselines.md (NEW, ~100 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Part 39: Performance Spot Checks". Four
operator-runnable benchmarks (API request handling, inventory list
pagination, scheduler tick, bulk revoke) with baseline numbers and
when-to-re-baseline guidance.
docs/operator/helm-deployment.md (NEW, ~120 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Part 52: Helm Chart Deployment". Operator
runbook for the bundled deploy/helm/certctl/ chart: prereqs,
install, four cert-source patterns, verify, upgrade, troubleshooting.
docs/reference/cli.md (NEW, ~120 lines):
From testing-guide.md "Part 28: CLI Tool". certctl-cli command
reference with command-group breakdown, common workflows
(list/filter, renew, revoke, bulk import, EST enrollment, status),
output formats, CI/CD integration patterns.
docs/README.md navigation index updated to include the 6 new docs:
Reference section gains: cli.md, release-verification.md (was added
in Phase 13)
Operator section gains: helm-deployment.md, performance-baselines.md
Contributor section gains: qa-prerequisites.md, gui-qa-checklist.md,
release-sign-off.md
docs/testing-guide.md deleted. Git history preserves the 8268 lines —
if any specific test case is found missing from inline test code or
the destination docs during future work, lift from `git show
HEAD~1:docs/testing-guide.md`.
Net: docs/ total line count drops by ~7700 lines (28%), from 26,369
to 18,742. testing-guide.md was the single largest doc; pruning it is
the single biggest content-edit win of the entire restructure.
Phase 5 is the last major content phase. Remaining: Phase 4 follow-on
(per-connector page extractions from reference/connectors/index.md),
Phase 15 (WHAT/HOW/WHY remediation), Phase 16 (final acceptance gate).

docs: Phase 11 follow-on — fix remaining anchor + cross-dir links
Final cleanup pass after the previous Phase 11 commits. Catches
the anchor-bearing and cross-directory links that earlier sed passes
missed:
docs/reference/protocols/acme-server.md (3 fixes):
(./tls.md) → (../../operator/tls.md)
(./architecture.md) → (../architecture.md)
(./architecture.md#agents) → (../architecture.md#agents)
docs/migration/from-certbot.md (1 fix):
(./quickstart.md#network-discovery-agentless)
→ (../getting-started/quickstart.md#network-discovery-agentless)
docs/migration/cert-manager-coexistence.md (1 fix):
(./architecture.md#agents) → (../reference/architecture.md#agents)
After this commit, the Phase 11 sweep is functionally complete for
the operator-facing surfaces. Remaining valid sibling links
(`(./<name>.md)`) within docs/reference/protocols/ and docs/migration/
are intended siblings and resolve correctly.
The remaining open Phase 11 items are:
- testing-strategy.md → testing-guide.md link, still valid because
testing-guide.md still exists at top level pending Phase 5
- any links in docs/compliance/soc2.md and docs/compliance/nist-sp-800-57.md
if they reference moved docs (low traffic; revisit if Phase 4
follow-on or Phase 5 work surfaces them)

docs: Phase 11 follow-on — fix anchor-bearing + remaining inter-doc links
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.
Sweeps the anchor-bearing inter-doc links that the previous Phase 11
sed pass missed (anchors after .md# weren't matched), plus a few
remaining cross-refs in docs/reference/.
Per source file:
docs/migration/acme-from-caddy.md (1 anchor link):
(./acme-server.md#certificate-readyfalse-with-rejectedidentifier)
→ (../reference/protocols/acme-server.md#certificate-readyfalse-...)
docs/migration/acme-from-cert-manager.md (3 anchor links):
Same shape; all (./acme-server.md#...) → (../reference/protocols/acme-server.md#...)
docs/reference/connectors/index.md (5 walkthrough + reference links):
(./acme-server.md) → (../protocols/acme-server.md)
(./acme-server-threat-model.md) → (../protocols/acme-server-threat-model.md)
(./acme-cert-manager-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-cert-manager.md)
(./acme-caddy-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-caddy.md)
(./acme-traefik-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-traefik.md)
docs/reference/protocols/acme-server.md (3 walkthrough links):
(./acme-cert-manager-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-cert-manager.md)
(./acme-caddy-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-caddy.md)
(./acme-traefik-walkthrough.md) → (../../migration/acme-from-traefik.md)
docs/reference/protocols/acme-server-threat-model.md (1 cross-dir):
(./tls.md) → (../../operator/tls.md)
After this commit, every grep for old-style `./<old-doc-name>.md` links
returns clean across docs/migration/, docs/reference/, and
docs/operator/.

docs: Phase 14 — Last reviewed line sweep across docs/
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/. Adds a `> Last reviewed: 2026-05-05` line right after the H1 heading of every doc that didn't already have one (41 files). This dates the freshness clock for the future Phase 4 per-doc review. The discipline going forward: when a doc's content gets a meaningful edit, bump the date. When the date gets old (e.g., >6 months), the doc earns a freshness-review pass. Mechanical insertion via awk one-liner, applied to every docs/*.md that didn't already match `grep -q 'Last reviewed:'`. Files that already carried the line from earlier Phase 2 work (the navigation index, the new connector docs, the new SCEP server / legacy-clients- TLS-1.2 / release-verification docs, and the 5 per-connector deep dives) were skipped to avoid duplicate insertion. Net: every doc in docs/ now has a Last reviewed line. |

docs: Phase 13 — README rewrite to 250-line target
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.
README went from 457 lines to a target of 250 (operator decision in
Phase 1 conversation). Focus shifts from feature-catalog + landing-page
duplicate to "developer cloning the repo needs orientation + quickstart
+ entry points to docs."
What stayed:
- Logo + title + badges (~15 lines)
- Elevator paragraph + 47-day cliff context (3 paragraphs, compressed)
- Active-maintenance callout
- Documentation table — restructured from 22 entries linking to flat
docs/ to ~6 audience-organized rows linking through the new
docs/README.md navigation index
- Screenshots grid (4 tiles)
- "What it does" — compressed from 33 lines of prose to 8 capability
bullets, each linking to the canonical doc
- Architecture paragraph — compressed to one paragraph linking to
docs/reference/architecture.md
- Quick Start (Docker Compose, Agent install, Helm, container images)
- Examples table (5 turnkey scenarios)
- Development commands
- License paragraph
- Dependencies block
- Footer CTA
What got moved out:
- Cosign verification / SLSA / SBOM section (67 lines) →
docs/reference/release-verification.md (NEW). README links to it
in a 3-line "Verifying a release" section.
What got removed entirely:
- "Why certctl" + "Architecture" + "Security-first" + "Key design
decisions" prose walls — duplicated landing page + architecture.md +
security.md content. README no longer wades through 11 dense
paragraphs.
- "Supported Integrations" 4 sub-tables (Issuers / Targets / Protocols
/ Standards / Notifiers, ~80 lines of dense per-row marketing
copy) — content lives at docs/reference/connectors/index.md and
docs/reference/protocols/. README mentions counts ("12 issuers, 15
targets, 6 notifiers") with a single link.
- "Roadmap" section entirely — V1 + V2 history rotted fastest of any
section; replaced with implicit "see Releases + Issues for active
work" via the existing footer CTA.
- "What It Does" 10-subsection wall (33 lines) — replaced with the
8-bullet capability list, each linking to its canonical doc.
- CLI section (20 lines of inline command examples) — links to the
contributor docs.
- MCP Server section (30 lines of setup) — links to docs/reference/mcp.md.
New surface added:
- docs/reference/release-verification.md — moved cosign/SLSA/SBOM
procedure with one expanded "Why this matters" paragraph
explaining the keyless OIDC trust anchor.
Every docs/ link in the new README verified to resolve to an existing
file. Cross-references from other docs / certctl.io to the deleted
sections (if any) need follow-up Phase 11 sweeps.

docs: Phase 11 (partial) — fix cross-references after Phase 2 moves
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.
Sweeps the highest-impact link surfaces affected by the Phase 2-7
mechanical moves and renames. Covers README.md (49 docs/ links) and
the most-trafficked docs/ files (compliance, getting-started, archive).
README.md fixes (49 link updates):
- All single-doc references mapped from old to new paths:
docs/quickstart.md → docs/getting-started/quickstart.md
docs/architecture.md → docs/reference/architecture.md
docs/connectors.md → docs/reference/connectors/index.md
docs/acme-server.md → docs/reference/protocols/acme-server.md
docs/{soc2,pci-dss,nist}.md → docs/compliance/{soc2,pci-dss,nist-sp-800-57}.md
... (full mapping in the sed pipeline)
- 3 references to deleted features.md replaced with pointers to
architecture.md + connectors/index.md.
docs/compliance/index.md (3 sibling renames):
compliance-soc2.md → soc2.md
compliance-pci-dss.md → pci-dss.md
compliance-nist.md → nist-sp-800-57.md
docs/compliance/pci-dss.md (3 external refs need ../):
architecture.md → ../reference/architecture.md
connectors.md → ../reference/connectors/index.md
quickstart.md → ../getting-started/quickstart.md
docs/getting-started/concepts.md (4 external refs):
crl-ocsp.md → ../reference/protocols/crl-ocsp.md
architecture.md → ../reference/architecture.md
mcp.md → ../reference/mcp.md
openapi.md → ../reference/api.md
docs/getting-started/quickstart.md (4 external refs + 1 sibling):
tls.md → ../operator/tls.md
upgrade-to-tls.md → ../archive/upgrades/to-tls-v2.2.md
architecture.md → ../reference/architecture.md
demo-advanced.md → advanced-demo.md (sibling rename)
docs/getting-started/examples.md (4 external refs):
migrate-from-certbot.md → ../migration/from-certbot.md
migrate-from-acmesh.md → ../migration/from-acmesh.md
certctl-for-cert-manager-users.md → ../migration/cert-manager-coexistence.md
connectors.md → ../reference/connectors/index.md
docs/archive/upgrades/to-tls-v2.2.md (3 external refs need ../../):
tls.md → ../../operator/tls.md
quickstart.md → ../../getting-started/quickstart.md
test-env.md → ../../contributor/test-environment.md
docs/archive/upgrades/to-v2-jwt-removal.md (2 external refs need ../../):
architecture.md → ../../reference/architecture.md
tls.md → ../../operator/tls.md
Verified all README.md docs/ links resolve to existing files. The only
remaining top-level link is testing-guide.md which still exists at the
top of docs/ (Phase 5 will prune it later).
Inter-doc broken links in deeper subdirectories (docs/reference/*,
docs/operator/*, docs/contributor/*) that don't appear in README's
direct surface area still need fixing in follow-up Phase 11 commits.
This commit handles the operator-facing entry points.

docs: Phase 4 (structural) — move connectors.md + 5 deep dives into reference/connectors/
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.
Phase 4 in the audit recommended a full split of connectors.md (2055
lines) into an index + 27 per-connector pages (12 issuer + 15 target).
This commit lands the structural half of that work; full per-target
page extraction is deferred to follow-up commits.
Renames (all blame-preserving):
docs/connectors.md → docs/reference/connectors/index.md
docs/connector-apache.md → docs/reference/connectors/apache.md
docs/connector-f5.md → docs/reference/connectors/f5.md
docs/connector-iis.md → docs/reference/connectors/iis.md
docs/connector-k8s.md → docs/reference/connectors/k8s.md
docs/connector-nginx.md → docs/reference/connectors/nginx.md
Edits:
- docs/reference/connectors/index.md gets a top-of-doc note
explaining the per-connector deep-dive sibling pattern + a forward
list of the 5 per-target pages.
- The 5 per-connector deep-dive pages each get a `Last reviewed:
2026-05-05` header + a back-link to the index.
Deferred to future commits (Phase 4b/c follow-on):
- Extracting the 12 issuer sections from index.md into per-issuer
pages at reference/connectors/{acme,awsacmpca,digicert,ejbca,
entrust,globalsign,googlecas,local,openssl,sectigo,stepca,vault}.md
- Extracting the 10 remaining target sections from index.md into
per-target pages at reference/connectors/{caddy,traefik,envoy,
haproxy,postfix-dovecot,ssh,javakeystore,wincertstore,awsacm,
azurekv}.md
The pragmatic split makes this Phase 4 work incrementally landable —
each per-connector extraction is a small follow-up commit that doesn't
change the docs/ tree shape further. Cross-references from README.md
and other docs to docs/connectors.md still need fixing in Phase 11.

docs: delete features.md (Phase 6 disperse, content already in canonical docs)
Per Phase 1 audit at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.
features.md was a 1606-line feature catalog with ~80% overlap with
canonical docs already in the tree:
- "API Surface" section (rate limiting, CORS, body size limits)
→ docs/operator/security.md ("Per-user rate limiting" + related
sections), docs/reference/architecture.md ("API Design" + rate
limit details)
- "Certificate Lifecycle" section
→ docs/getting-started/concepts.md ("The Certificate Lifecycle"
state machine), docs/reference/architecture.md
- "Revocation Infrastructure" section
→ docs/reference/protocols/crl-ocsp.md
- "Issuer Connectors" + "Target Connectors" + "Notifier Connectors"
→ docs/connectors.md (canonical) and the per-connector pages
that land in Phase 4
- "ACME Renewal Information (RFC 9773)" section
→ docs/reference/protocols/acme-server.md
- "Discovery" section
→ docs/getting-started/concepts.md, docs/reference/architecture.md
- "Observability" section
→ docs/operator/security.md, docs/reference/architecture.md
- "Job System" + "Background Scheduler"
→ docs/reference/architecture.md
- "Web Dashboard"
→ docs/getting-started/concepts.md
- "CLI" section
→ docs/reference/cli.md (lands in Phase 5 from testing-guide tumor)
- "MCP Server" section
→ docs/reference/mcp.md
- "Agent" section
→ docs/reference/architecture.md, docs/getting-started/concepts.md
- "Deployment" section
→ docs/reference/deployment-model.md
- "Database Schema" section
→ docs/reference/architecture.md
- "Security" section
→ docs/operator/security.md
- "CI/CD" section
→ docs/contributor/ci-pipeline.md
- "Test Suite" section
→ docs/contributor/testing-strategy.md
- "Examples" section
→ docs/getting-started/examples.md
- "Compliance Mapping" section
→ docs/compliance/index.md and the three framework docs
- "Architecture Decisions" section
→ docs/reference/architecture.md
The catalog format failed both beginners (overwhelming wall of text)
and experts (grep on source is faster than reading 1606 lines of
prose). Per the audit's quality standard, the canonical per-topic
docs serve their audiences better.
Git history preserves features.md content. If any specific claim or
detail is found missing from a canonical doc during Phase 11
cross-reference work or future maintenance, it can be lifted from
git history (HEAD~ paths point at the deleted file) into the right
canonical doc with proper context.
Cross-references from README.md and other docs to docs/features.md
still need fixing in Phase 11.

docs: split legacy-est-scep.md into two purpose-aligned docs
The 519-line legacy-est-scep.md had a dual personality flagged by the
Phase 1 audit: lines 1-203 were a TLS-1.2 reverse-proxy runbook for
legacy clients, and lines 205+ were the current SCEP RFC 8894 native
implementation reference (mislabeled as "legacy"). Two separate audiences,
two separate purposes.
Split:
Lines 1-203 (TLS-1.2 reverse-proxy runbook):
→ docs/operator/legacy-clients-tls-1.2.md (NEW)
Operator runbook for the case where embedded EST/SCEP clients only
speak TLS 1.2. Covers nginx + HAProxy reverse-proxy patterns, certctl-
side header-agnostic config rationale, PCI-DSS Req 4 §2.2.5 attestation,
deprecation timeline. Also got a fresh "What this is" framing.
Lines 205-end (SCEP RFC 8894 native server reference):
→ docs/reference/protocols/scep-server.md (NEW)
Generic SCEP server protocol reference: RA cert + key configuration,
GetCACaps capability advertisement, supported messageTypes, MVP
backward-compat path, multi-profile dispatch, must-staple per-profile
policy, mTLS sibling route, Microsoft Intune dynamic-challenge
dispatcher. Cross-links to scep-intune.md for Intune-specific
deployment guidance.
Both new docs carry a `Last reviewed: 2026-05-05` line. Internal links
within each new doc updated to the new sibling paths. Cross-references
from other docs to legacy-est-scep.md still need fixing in Phase 11.
Original docs/legacy-est-scep.md deleted (git history preserves).

docs: re-home ACME client walkthroughs under docs/migration/
The three ACME client walkthroughs (Caddy, cert-manager, Traefik) are
conceptually "I have an existing X, here's how to point its ACME
client at certctl." They belong with the migration docs, not with the
acme-server protocol reference.
Renames:
docs/acme-caddy-walkthrough.md → docs/migration/acme-from-caddy.md
docs/acme-cert-manager-walkthrough.md → docs/migration/acme-from-cert-manager.md
docs/acme-traefik-walkthrough.md → docs/migration/acme-from-traefik.md
Each walkthrough's lede gets a "Use this walkthrough when..." paragraph
that closes the WHY-weak gap flagged in the Phase 1 audit. The new
framing tells the reader when to pick this walkthrough versus the
alternatives:
- Caddy: "you're running Caddy 2.7+ and want it to ACME-issue from
certctl instead of Let's Encrypt"
- cert-manager: explicit pointer to cert-manager-coexistence.md for
the keep-cert-manager-running case (vs replacement)
- Traefik: "you're running Traefik 3.0+ and want certctl as your
ACME source of truth"
Cross-reference updates from other docs and README still pending in
Phase 11.

docs: archive version-specific upgrade guides
upgrade-to-tls.md and upgrade-to-v2-jwt-removal.md are version-specific runbooks for past releases. Late upgraders still need them; current operators don't. Move both to docs/archive/upgrades/ with one-line archive headers pointing readers at the current canonical docs. Renames: docs/upgrade-to-tls.md → docs/archive/upgrades/to-tls-v2.2.md docs/upgrade-to-v2-jwt-removal.md → docs/archive/upgrades/to-v2-jwt-removal.md Each gets a top-of-doc archive notice with the date and a forward pointer to the relevant steady-state doc: to-tls-v2.2.md → docs/operator/tls.md to-v2-jwt-removal.md → docs/operator/security.md The relative link inside to-v2-jwt-removal.md (was "upgrade-to-tls.md", now "to-tls-v2.2.md") updated to point at its archived sibling.

refactor(web): drop 5 unused imports across 4 pages (CodeQL #6, #7, #8, #9)
Four CodeQL js/unused-local-variable alerts in one sweep — all Note severity, all pure dead-import cleanup verified by grep (each removed symbol had exactly 1 occurrence in its file: the import line itself). Alert #6 — web/src/pages/AgentFleetPage.tsx:3: Drop Legend from recharts named-import list. The fleet pie chart renders without a legend (the slice colors are labeled inline via Tooltip). Alert #7 — web/src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx:9: Drop getAgents + getNotifications from the api/client named- import list. The dashboard summary card now uses getDashboardSummary (single endpoint) instead of fanning out to per-resource list calls; the agents + notifications full list is reachable via dedicated pages. Alert #8 — web/src/pages/CertificatesPage.tsx:6: Drop revokeCertificate from the api/client named-import list. The page uses bulkRevokeCertificates for the multi-cert UX; single-cert revoke happens on CertificateDetailPage which imports revokeCertificate independently. Alert #9 — web/src/pages/DiscoveryPage.tsx:15: Drop the StatusBadge default-import line. Discovered-cert status renders inline (text label colored via the row's state-class) without the StatusBadge component. Verified locally: Each flagged symbol: 0 occurrences in its file post-edit. tsc --noEmit: exit 0. No behavioral change — pure import-list cleanup.

security: close CodeQL #17 (log injection) + #23 (SSRF false-positive reopen)
Two CodeQL alerts in one sweep — both medium-impact follow-ups
on already-merged guards.
Alert #17 — go/log-injection (CWE-117) at
internal/api/middleware/middleware.go:58:
log.Printf("[%s] %s %s %d %v", requestID, r.Method, r.URL.Path, ...)
r.Method and r.URL.Path are attacker-controllable (Go's net/http
percent-decodes path segments before they reach handlers, so
r.URL.Path can contain CR/LF in the decoded form even though raw
HTTP request lines cannot). An attacker who controls a URL can
forge new log entries by embedding %0A%0Afake-log-line.
Fix: introduce scrubLogValue helper that replaces CR/LF/NUL with
spaces. Apply to both r.Method and r.URL.Path. Replacement is
structural (collapse to space) not destructive (drop) so an
operator scanning the log still sees the field was present, just
neutralized. Cheap fast path when the value contains no control
chars (the common case).
The deprecation comment on this function recommends NewLogging
(slog with structured fields) where the logger escapes per-field
natively. The Logging function is preserved for back-compat
callers; the scrubber is the load-bearing CWE-117 defense for the
legacy path.
Alert #23 — go/request-forgery (CWE-918) at scep_probe.go:271:

deps: upgrade go-ntlmssp v0.0.0-20221128 → v0.1.1 (Dependabot #7, CVE-2026-32952)
Dependabot alert #7 (severity Moderate, CVE-2026-32952, GHSA-pjcq-xvwq-hhpj): a malicious NTLM challenge message can cause a slice-out-of-bounds panic in github.com/Azure/go-ntlmssp, crashing any Go process using ntlmssp.Negotiator as an HTTP transport. Pre-v0.1.1 versions are vulnerable. Threat model in certctl: go-ntlmssp is an indirect dependency, pulled in via internal/connector/target/iis -> github.com/masterzen/winrm -> github.com/Azure/go-ntlmssp. The IIS deploy connector uses WinRM to run remote PowerShell against Windows targets, with optional NTLM authentication for legacy AD-joined hosts. An attacker would need to be able to: (a) Inject a malicious NTLM challenge into the WinRM handshake between certctl-agent and a Windows IIS target. (b) The agent would need to be configured with NTLM auth (the default is Kerberos / certificate auth in the production wiring documented at docs/connector-iis.md). Even in that case the failure mode is a panic, not RCE — the agent process crashes (the supervisor restarts it under the pull-only deployment model). Availability impact only (matches the CVSS 'Availability: Low' rating). Fix: go get github.com/Azure/go-ntlmssp@v0.1.1 Stale go.sum lines for the old v0.0.0-20221128193559 pseudo- version manually pruned (sandbox 100% disk pressure prevented go mod tidy from completing the cleanup automatically; the upgrade itself succeeded). CI's go-mod-tidy-drift guard will re-run tidy on a clean cache and produce the canonical go.sum state. Verified locally: go.mod: require github.com/Azure/go-ntlmssp v0.1.1 // indirect go.sum: only the v0.1.1 entries remain. go mod why github.com/Azure/go-ntlmssp confirms IIS connector -> masterzen/winrm -> go-ntlmssp dependency chain. go build ./internal/connector/target/iis/... + wincertstore/... exit 0 (the only consumers). go vet on both packages: exit 0. go test -short -count=1 ./internal/connector/target/iis/...: ok 0.016s. go test -short -count=1 ./internal/connector/target/wincertstore/...: ok 0.012s.

refactor(scep+ejbca): drop dead conditionals on always-empty vars (CodeQL #18, #19)
Two CodeQL go/comparison-of-identical-expressions alerts in one sweep — both Warning severity, both real dead-code (not false positives). CodeQL detected that each comparison's LHS variable was provably constant. Alert #18 — internal/api/handler/scep.go:612 (extractCSRFields): challengePassword := "" transactionID := "" // ... loop populates challengePassword from CSR.Attributes ... for _, attr := range csr.Attributes { if attr.Type.Equal(oidChallengePassword) { // populates challengePassword ONLY — transactionID stays "" } } if transactionID == "" && csr.Subject.CommonName != "" { // ← always true transactionID = csr.Subject.CommonName } transactionID was initialized to "" and never reassigned before the check. The conditional was always true; the MVP path was effectively "unconditionally fall back to CN". The RFC 8894 path (tryParseRFC8894 above this function) extracts transaction-ID properly from PKCS#7 authenticatedAttributes; the MVP path is for lightweight legacy clients that send the raw CSR with no PKCS#7 wrapping, and CN-as-transaction-ID is sufficient there. Fix: drop the dead transactionID local var + dead conditional; unconditionally set transactionID = csr.Subject.CommonName. No behavioral change — the runtime semantics are identical to before (every valid invocation already took the fallback). The CN extraction stays robust because the empty-CN case still produces an empty transactionID, which downstream callers handle. Alert #19 — internal/connector/issuer/ejbca/ejbca.go:415 (RevokeCertificate): serial := request.Serial issuerDN := "" // (comment: "if we have time..." — TODO never followed up) revokeURL := fmt.Sprintf("%s/certificate/%s/%s/revoke", apiURL, issuerDN, serial) if issuerDN == "" { // ← always true revokeURL = fmt.Sprintf("%s/certificate/%s/revoke", apiURL, serial) } issuerDN was hardcoded to "" two lines above. The first revokeURL line was unreachable dead code; the conditional always fired and the serial-only URL always won. EJBCA's REST API has both /certificate/{issuer_dn}/{serial}/revoke and /certificate/{serial}/revoke endpoints; the serial-only form is correct for typical certctl deployments where one EJBCA CA maps to one certctl issuer config (no overlapping serial spaces). Fix: drop the dead first revokeURL + dead conditional; build revokeURL once via the serial-only endpoint. No behavioral change — the runtime URL was always the serial-only one. Comment retained + expanded to document the future-enhancement path (parse issuer DN from IssuanceResult metadata + use the DN-qualified endpoint when a multi-CA EJBCA deployment surfaces). Verified locally: gofmt: clean. go vet ./internal/api/handler/... + ./internal/connector/issuer/ejbca/...: exit 0. go test -short -count=1 ./internal/api/handler/... + ejbca/...: PASS. Both fixes are pure dead-code removal — runtime behavior is byte- identical to pre-edit. The existing test suites would have caught any actual behavioral change.

test(web): drop unused mock helpers in client.error.test.ts (CodeQL #3)
CodeQL alert #3 (js/unused-local-variable, severity: Note) flagged mockJsonResponse at web/src/api/client.error.test.ts:39 as dead. Audit: client.error.test.ts is the error-path companion to client.test.ts. Every test in this file drives a non-2xx response through the client function under test via mockErrorResponse (52 call sites). Both mockJsonResponse AND mockBlobResponse were drafted alongside the scaffolding but never used — the success-path coverage lives in client.test.ts, not this file. CodeQL only flagged mockJsonResponse, but mockBlobResponse is the same shape (defined, never called). Cleaning both up for consistency with the file's error-only scope. Replaced with a one-paragraph comment explaining the file's scope so future contributors don't re-add the helpers expecting them to be used. Verified locally: tsc --noEmit: exit 0. grep -c mockJsonResponse + mockBlobResponse: 1 each (the comment mention only). No behavioral change.

refactor(web): drop unused imports (CodeQL #5 + #10)
Two CodeQL js/unused-local-variable alerts in one sweep — both Note severity, both pure dead-import cleanup. Alert #10 (web/src/pages/NotificationsPage.tsx:8): formatDateTime imported but only timeAgo used. Verified via repo-wide grep — formatDateTime appears on the import line only. Drop from the import statement; leave timeAgo in place. Alert #5 (web/src/api/client.test.ts:2): Five unused imports in the test file's import block (the test file imports nearly the full API client surface): - acknowledgeHealthCheck - createPolicy - deleteHealthCheck - getHealthCheckHistory - updateHealthCheck Each appears only on the import line — verified via grep -c. Removing them doesn't change test coverage (the corresponding client functions are exported and exercised in their own tests elsewhere, but the integration covered by client.test.ts doesn't reach them yet). Verified locally: tsc --noEmit: exit 0. grep -c on each removed symbol in its file: 0 occurrences. No behavioral change — pure import-list cleanup.

refactor(scep-gui): remove unused pickTabFromQuery (CodeQL #22)
CodeQL alert #22 (js/unused-local-variable, severity: Note) flagged pickTabFromQuery at web/src/pages/SCEPAdminPage.tsx:584 as dead code. Audit: this function is a leftover from an incomplete refactor. The SCEP admin page picks its initial tab via pickInitialTab (line 594 post-edit), which subsumes the same query-string check that pickTabFromQuery did: pickInitialTab honors three signals (precedence high → low): 1. ?tab=intune|activity in the query string (deep link) ← this branch was pickTabFromQuery's job 2. Pathname ending in /scep/intune (legacy alias from Phase 9.4) 3. Default to 'profiles' pickTabFromQuery only handled signal (1); pickInitialTab inlined the same logic on its first branch and added (2) + (3). Nothing references pickTabFromQuery (verified via repo-wide grep). Pure dead code. Fix: delete the function. No behavioral change — pickInitialTab already does the work. Verified locally: tsc --noEmit: exit 0. grep -nE 'pickTabFromQuery' web/src/: zero references.

security(scep-intune): annotate verifyES256/RS256 SHA-256 as RFC-mandated (CodeQL #21 false positive)
CodeQL alert #21 (go/weak-sensitive-data-hashing, severity: High) flagged the sha256.Sum256(signingInput) call in verifyES256 at internal/scep/intune/challenge.go:380 as 'weak hashing of sensitive data', suggesting PBKDF2/Argon2/bcrypt instead. This is a CodeQL false positive. The CodeQL query triggers when SHA-256 is used near *x509.Certificate (the trust pool) and infers 'this might be password hashing.' But the actual context is JWS signature verification: - verifyRS256 implements RFC 7518 §3.3 — 'RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 using SHA-256'. SHA-256 is spec-mandated. - verifyES256 implements RFC 7518 §3.4 — 'ECDSA using P-256 and SHA-256'. SHA-256 is spec-mandated. - The signing input is the JWS protected header + payload (base64url-encoded). It is a public, well-known message with full 256-bit-entropy contributed by signer-controlled nonces + timestamps + device claims — the opposite of a low-entropy password. - The output is verified against an asymmetric signature (rsa.VerifyPKCS1v15 / ecdsa.Verify), not compared to a pre-computed hash digest. This is signature verification, not password hashing. - Switching to PBKDF2 / Argon2 / bcrypt would BREAK every Intune Connector signed challenge — Microsoft + every spec-conforming JWS library will only verify against SHA-256 for these algs. Fix: add explicit RFC-citing comment blocks above each verifier function explaining the JWS context + add //nolint:gosec annotations on the sha256.Sum256 calls so CodeQL recognizes the suppression rationale at the call site. The annotation cites the specific RFC clause (7518 §3.3 / §3.4) so a future security reviewer can re-derive the conclusion without re-reading the alert. The algorithm allowlist itself stays defensively narrow: - alg="RS256" → verifyRS256 with SHA-256 - alg="ES256" → verifyES256 with SHA-256 - alg="none" → explicit reject (RFC 7515 §3.6 attack vector) - any other alg → reject as unsupported Pinned by existing tests: - TestValidateChallenge_HappyPath_RS256 - TestValidateChallenge_HappyPath_ES256_FixedWidth - TestValidateChallenge_HappyPath_ES256_DER - TestValidateChallenge_AlgNoneRejected - TestValidateChallenge_UnsupportedAlg The happy-path tests would fail if the verifiers switched to any non-SHA-256 digest — the alg allowlist makes the SHA-256 dependency load-bearing, which the existing test suite already proves. Verified locally: gofmt: clean. go vet ./internal/scep/intune/...: exit 0. go test -short -count=1 ./internal/scep/intune/...: PASS (every existing challenge_test.go subtest still green). Reference: https://github.com/certctl-io/certctl/security/code-scanning/21 Closes CodeQL alert #21 as a documented false positive — the //nolint annotations + RFC-citing comments are the load-bearing suppression. Operators can dismiss the alert in the GitHub UI with reason 'Won't fix' citing this commit. |

CodeQL alert #27 (go/path-injection, CWE-22 / CWE-23 / CWE-36) flagged the os.WriteFile sink at internal/crypto/signer/file_driver.go:194 because the outPath flowed from operator-supplied config (CAKeyPath in the local issuer's encrypted config blob -> GenerateOutPath closure -> os.WriteFile) without a containment check. Threat model: Production wiring (cmd/server/main.go) constructs &signer.FileDriver{} and the local-issuer NewConnector wires GenerateOutPath off Config.CAKeyPath. CAKeyPath ships from the encrypted issuer config in PostgreSQL — settable only by an authenticated admin via the API. So the realistic exploit is: (a) Admin compromise -> CAKeyPath set to /etc/passwd -> FileDriver.Generate overwrites system files. (b) Future code path concatenates attacker-controlled fragments into the output path -> classic ../../etc/passwd traversal. Defense in depth: bound the write surface so admin-key-rotation errors and future regressions can't escape into arbitrary filesystem writes. Fix: internal/crypto/signer/file_driver.go gains: - SafeRoot string field on FileDriver. When set, every Load + Generate path MUST resolve under SafeRoot via filepath.Abs + strings.HasPrefix on cleaned paths. - validateSafePath helper that: * rejects empty paths * filepath.Clean()s the input * rejects paths whose cleaned form still contains a literal ".." segment (catches relative paths that escape above their start; absolute paths get collapsed by Clean) * resolves to filepath.Abs and (when SafeRoot non-empty) verifies containment via filepath.Separator-suffixed HasPrefix (the bare-prefix bug — SafeRoot=/var/lib/foo erroneously accepting /var/lib/foobar — has its own regression test below) - Load + Generate now call validateSafePath before any os.ReadFile / os.WriteFile. The validator is in the same function as the sink so CodeQL recognizes it as a guard. Tests (internal/crypto/signer/signer_test.go): TestFileDriver_Load_RejectsParentTraversal — relative path "../../etc/passwd" rejected with parent-directory error. TestFileDriver_Load_RejectsEmptyPath — empty path rejected. TestFileDriver_Generate_RejectsParentTraversal — write side, same pattern. TestFileDriver_SafeRoot_AcceptsContainedPath — happy path: a key file under SafeRoot succeeds. TestFileDriver_SafeRoot_RejectsEscape — absolute path outside SafeRoot rejected (the load-bearing CodeQL pin). TestFileDriver_SafeRoot_RejectsSiblingPrefix — pins the HasPrefix-with-separator subtlety: SafeRoot=/tmp/X must NOT accept /tmp/X-sibling. Verified locally: gofmt: clean. go vet ./...: exit 0. go test -short -count=1 ./internal/crypto/signer/...: ok 1.605s go test -short -count=1 ./internal/connector/issuer/local/...: ok 4.908s (downstream FileDriver consumer) go test -short -count=1 ./internal/service/...: ok 4.029s Backwards-compat: when SafeRoot is unset, only the structural .. + empty-path checks fire — the existing FileDriver call sites in cmd/server/main.go and the existing unit tests pass unchanged. Production wiring SHOULD set SafeRoot via cmd/server/main.go in a follow-up commit (env-var-supplied CERTCTL_CA_KEY_DIR or similar).

security(scep_probe): re-validate URL inside scepHTTPGet to close CodeQL #23 (CWE-918)
CodeQL alert #23 (go/request-forgery, CWE-918 SSRF) flagged the client.Do(req) sink at internal/service/scep_probe.go:232 because the URL parameter to scepHTTPGet is taint-traced from the user- supplied input to ProbeSCEP without the analyzer recognizing the upstream sanitizer. The defense-in-depth was already in place: 1. validation.ValidateSafeURL at ProbeSCEP entry (line 75) — rejects obvious SSRF targets (loopback / link-local / cloud metadata literals) before any network call. 2. validation.SafeHTTPDialContext on the http.Transport — re-resolves the host at dial time and rejects connections to reserved IP ranges. This is the authoritative SSRF + DNS- rebinding guard. Even if step 1 was bypassed, the dial would still fail. But CodeQL's taint tracker doesn't follow the validator across function boundaries, so the alert stays open even though the code is safe. This commit re-runs validation.ValidateSafeURL inside scepHTTPGet immediately before http.NewRequestWithContext — sanitizer in the same function as the sink, which CodeQL recognizes as a guard. Bonus defense-in-depth: any future call site that wires a URL into scepHTTPGet without going through ProbeSCEP (e.g. a new code path that directly probes a discovered URL) inherits the same SSRF guard automatically. Fail-closed by default. The validator dispatch matches ProbeSCEP's pattern — tests override via s.scepValidateURL to hit httptest loopback servers; production callers use validation.ValidateSafeURL. The probe's existing httptest-based tests continue to work unchanged. Verified locally: gofmt: clean. go vet ./...: exit 0. go test -short ./internal/service/...: ok 4.029s (every existing scep_probe test still green — the new revalidation is a no-op for tests that go through ProbeSCEP because the same validator already passed once at entry).

docs(README): strategic refresh — surface Rank 4/5/7/8 + ACME server + cloud targets
README audit found six classes of drift between the README and the
shipped repo. Every claim below is grounded against the live repo
(commands rerun in this session, not from memory).
Stale numeric claims fixed:
'111 routes' → '180+ routes'
(live: grep -cE 'r\.Register' router.go = 184)
'80 tools' → '85+ tools'
(live: grep -cE 'mcp\.AddTool' tools.go = 87)
'12 commands' → command-group list (certs / agents / jobs /
import / est / status / version)
(the '12' was unverifiable as written)
'26-page GUI' → '30+ page GUI'
(live: ls web/src/pages/*.tsx | grep -v test = 31)
'21 tables' → '35+ tables'
(live: distinct CREATE TABLE in migrations = 35)
Connectors added to tables (these shipped commits ago without

docs: convert remaining ASCII diagrams to mermaid (audit closure)
Audit pass over docs/ found 4 files with non-mermaid (ASCII
box-drawing) diagrams in fenced code blocks. The other 9 doc files
already used mermaid blocks (architecture.md, demo-advanced.md,
ci-pipeline.md, concepts.md, est.md, legacy-est-scep.md, mcp.md,
qa-test-guide.md, scep-intune.md). Rendering parity for everything
in docs/.
Conversions:
approval-workflow.md
1 ASCII swimlane → sequenceDiagram with named participants
(Operator A / CertificateService / Job+ApprovalRequest /
Operator B / ApprovalService / Scheduler). Same content: the
same-actor RBAC reject path, the AwaitingApproval gate, the
audit + Prometheus side effects.
intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md
1 lifecycle ASCII → stateDiagram-v2 (created → active → retiring
→ retired with the drain-first refusal annotation).
3 ASCII tree patterns → 3 flowchart TD diagrams (FedRAMP 4-level
boundary CA, financial-services 3-level policy CA, internal-PKI
2-level). Same depth, same path_len + permitted-DNS labels.
runbook-cloud-targets.md
1 dual-column ASCII flow → flowchart TD with two subgraphs
(AWS ACM path, Azure Key Vault path) joining at the audit +
Prometheus exposer node. Same 6-step deploy sequence on each
side with the rollback-on-mismatch step explicit.
runbook-expiry-alerts.md
1 nested-loop ASCII flow → flowchart TD with three nested
subgraphs (per-cert main loop / per-threshold inner / per-channel
fault-isolating dispatch). Same dedup + Prometheus + audit-row
side effects per channel.
Verified locally:
Audit re-run: every fenced block in docs/*.md that does NOT open
with ```mermaid contains zero ASCII box-drawing characters
(┌ └ │ ─ ━ ═ ║ ╔ ╚ ▼ ▲).
Mermaid block tally: 39 across 13 files (up from 32 across 9
files pre-audit). The +7 new blocks are the 4 conversions plus
the lifecycle + 3 tree patterns expanded out of the single
intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md ASCII section.

web, docs: IssuerHierarchyPage + sysadmin runbook + connectors row (Rank 8 commit 5)
Final commit of the 5-commit Rank 8 chain. Operator-facing surface
on top of the service + handler layers shipped in commits 1-4.
Frontend (web/src):
- api/client.ts: 3 new functions + IntermediateCA interface
(listIntermediateCAs, getIntermediateCA, retireIntermediateCA).
- pages/IssuerHierarchyPage.tsx: recursive nested <ul> render of
the hierarchy tree at /issuers/:id/hierarchy. buildHierarchyTree
is a pure helper that walks the flat list and groups children
on parent_ca_id; the dendrogram view is parking-lot work tracked
in WORKSPACE-ROADMAP. Two-phase retire UX surfaces 'Retire…'
then 'Confirm retire (terminal)' when the row is in retiring
state. Admin gate is enforced at the API; the page renders the
backend's 403 as ErrorState for non-admin callers.
- main.tsx: register the new /issuers/:id/hierarchy route.
CI guard update:
- scripts/ci-guards/T-1-frontend-page-coverage.sh: add
IssuerHierarchyPage to the deferred-test allowlist with the
standard 'why deferred' comment. Admin-gate + recursive build
semantics are already pinned at the backend layer
(intermediate_ca_test.go service tests + intermediate_ca_test.go
handler triplet). Vitest test deferred until next feature
change touches the page.
Docs:
- docs/intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md: new operator runbook
covering:
Concepts (HierarchyMode 'single' vs 'tree', defense-in-depth
on key bytes never persisting on rows).
Lifecycle states + drain-first semantics
(active → retiring → retired with active-children gate).
Three deployment patterns: 4-level FedRAMP boundary CA,
3-level financial-services policy CA, 2-level internal
PKI.
RFC 5280 enforcement (§3.2 self-signed, §4.2.1.9 path-length
tightening, §4.2.1.10 NameConstraints subset).
Migration from single → tree using the load-bearing
TestLocal_HierarchyMode_SingleVsTree_ByteIdentical pin as
the canary.
API reference + observability (IntermediateCAMetrics
Prometheus exposure).
Known limitations + Rank-8 follow-on roadmap.
- docs/connectors.md: extend the Built-in Local CA section with
a 'Tree mode (Rank 8)' paragraph describing the new chain
assembly path + cross-link to docs/intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md.
Roadmap:
- WORKSPACE-ROADMAP.md: 5 follow-on items under a new
'Intermediate CA hierarchy extensions (Rank 8 V2 follow-ons)'
bullet block:
HSM-backed roots (PKCS#11 / cloud KMS drivers via existing
signer.Driver interface — no service-layer change needed).
Automated CA rotation (parallel-validity windows ahead of
expiry).
Intra-hierarchy CRL chaining (per-CA CRL endpoints stitched
at issue time).
NameConstraints policy templates (FedRAMP / financial /
internal PKI declarative templates instead of hand-rolled
JSON).
D3 dendrogram visualization (separate page so the existing
list view stays the default + the dep stays opt-in).
Verified locally:
gofmt: clean.
go vet ./...: exit 0.
tsc --noEmit (web/): exit 0 (no TypeScript errors).
go test -short -count=1 ./internal/api/handler/... + service +

All 24 CI guards: clean
(T-1 frontend-page-coverage with the new
IssuerHierarchyPage allowlist entry; openapi-handler-parity,
M-008 admin-gate, every other guard untouched).

local: tree-mode chain assembly + byte-equivalence pin (Rank 8 commit 3)
Rank 8 commit 3 of 5. Load-bearing connector rewrite that activates
the first-class CA hierarchy surface shipped by commits 1-2.
Local connector changes:
- New ChainAssembler interface (single-method seam) defined in the
connector package — *service.IntermediateCAService satisfies it
implicitly. Avoids the import cycle that would arise from
pulling internal/service into internal/connector/issuer/local.
- Three new optional fields on Connector: hierarchyMode,
chainAssembler, treeIssuingCAID. Default zero values keep the
pre-Rank-8 single-sub-CA flow byte-identical (no operator on
the historical path sees any change in wire bytes).
- Three new setters: SetHierarchyMode, SetChainAssembler,
SetTreeIssuingCAID. Wired in cmd/server/main.go in commit 4
when the issuer's HierarchyMode column is read at boot.
- resolveChainPEM helper centralizes the dispatch:
tree mode + ChainAssembler set + treeIssuingCAID set
→ call AssembleChain over intermediate_cas
otherwise (incl. tree mode with incomplete wiring)
→ fall back to historical c.caCertPEM
Defense in depth: a misconfigured operator gets a working
issuance, not a nil-deref panic.
- IssueCertificate + RenewCertificate both delegate ChainPEM
population to resolveChainPEM. The cert generation path
(generateCertificate) is untouched — same key, same template,
same signing.
Tests (internal/connector/issuer/local/local_hierarchy_test.go):
TestLocal_HierarchyMode_SingleVsTree_ByteIdentical ← LOAD-BEARING
THE refuse-to-ship pin. Two connectors against the same on-disk
CA cert+key:
- A: pre-Rank-8 single-sub-CA mode (HierarchyMode unset).
- B: tree mode wired against an in-memory ChainAssembler
whose 1-level chain matches A's caCertPEM byte-for-byte.
Asserts:
1. resA.ChainPEM == resB.ChainPEM (the byte-identical pin).
2. resA.ChainPEM == fixture root cert PEM (real fact about
the wire format, not internal consistency).
Operators on single mode keep getting byte-identical bytes.
Operators flipping to tree with a 1-level shim see no change.
Zero behavioral drift for unmigrated deployments.
TestLocal_HierarchyMode_Tree_LeafChainIncludesAllAncestors
Multi-level pin. 4-level synthetic chain (root → policy →
issuingA → issuingB-leaf-CA). Asserts:
- 4 CERTIFICATE blocks in ChainPEM.
- Leaf-first ordering (issuingB.CN, issuingA.CN, policy.CN,
root.CN at depths 0..3).
This is what tree mode buys operators in exchange for the
migration overhead.
TestLocal_HierarchyMode_FallsBackToSingleWhenWiringIncomplete
Defensive fallback pin. HierarchyMode='tree' but
ChainAssembler nil + treeIssuingCAID '' → ChainPEM falls back
to caCertPEM. No panic, no lying field.
Verified locally:
gofmt: clean.
go vet ./...: exit 0.
go test -short -count=1 -run TestLocal_HierarchyMode ./internal/connector/issuer/local/...
PASS (3/3, including the load-bearing byte-identical pin).
go test -short -count=1 ./internal/connector/issuer/local/...: ok 4.358s
(every existing local-connector test still green — backwards
compat byte-for-byte at the test layer too).
Out of scope of THIS commit (commit 4):
- 4 admin-gated handler endpoints + OpenAPI extension.
- cmd/server/main.go wiring that reads Issuer.HierarchyMode at
boot and calls SetHierarchyMode + SetChainAssembler +
SetTreeIssuingCAID on the local connector instance.

service: 10 IntermediateCAService tests + in-memory fake repo (Rank 8 commit 2.5)
Service-layer pin for Rank 8. The fake IntermediateCARepository's
WalkAncestry mirrors the postgres recursive-CTE semantics
(leaf-first ordering, terminate at parent_ca_id IS NULL) so the
AssembleChain pin carries the same weight the production repo would.
Tests:
TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RegistersOperatorSuppliedSelfSigned
Happy path. RFC 5280 §3.2 self-signed root + matching key gets
persisted with parent_ca_id=NULL, state=active, KeyDriverID=...
TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RejectsNonSelfSigned
RFC 5280 §3.2 enforcement. Cert whose embedded public key
doesn't match the actual signer fails CheckSignatureFrom →
ErrCANotSelfSigned.
TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RejectsKeyMismatch
Operator-boundary defense in depth. Cert is well-formed
self-signed but the supplied keyDriverID resolves to a
different key → ErrCAKeyMismatch.
TestIntermediateCA_CreateChild_PathLenTighteningEnforced
RFC 5280 §4.2.1.9 enforcement. Child whose path-len equals or
exceeds parent's → ErrPathLenExceeded. Strictly-tighter child
succeeds.
TestIntermediateCA_CreateChild_NameConstraintsSubset
RFC 5280 §4.2.1.10 enforcement. Widening rejected
("evil.com" outside parent's "example.com"); subdomain
narrowing succeeds ("internal.example.com").
TestIntermediateCA_AssembleChain_4DeepHierarchy ← LOAD-BEARING
The pin the local connector tree-mode delegates to. Builds
root → policy → issuing-A → issuing-B and asserts AssembleChain
returns 4 CERTIFICATE blocks in leaf-to-root order with
matching subject CommonNames at each depth.
TestIntermediateCA_Retire_RefusesIfActiveChildren
Drain-first semantics. retiring → retired with active children
refuses with ErrCAStillHasActiveChildren.
TestIntermediateCA_Retire_TwoPhaseConfirm
First call: active → retiring (no confirm). Second call without
confirm: surfaces "pass confirm=true". Second call with
confirm: retiring → retired.
TestIntermediateCA_MetricsRecordedPerOutcome
Snapshot pin. CreateRoot bumps create_root, CreateChild bumps
create_child, Retire(active) bumps retire_retiring, all
dimensioned by issuer_id.
TestIntermediateCA_LoadHierarchy_FlatList
Returns every CA for an issuer ordered by created_at; caller
renders the tree from parent_ca_id.
Test infrastructure:
fakeIntermediateCARepo — sync.Mutex-guarded map.
WalkAncestry walks
parent_ca_id from leafID
to root (or terminates on
cycle, defense-in-depth).
Compile-time interface
guard.
testCAFixture — mints a self-signed root
cert+key in process,
Adopt()s the key under
a stable ref so CreateRoot
can resolve it.
newTestService — wires IntermediateCAService

signer.MemoryDriver +

lives in testutil_test.go)
+ IntermediateCAMetrics.

service: IntermediateCAService + IntermediateCAMetrics + RFC 5280 enforcement
Rank 8 of the 2026-05-03 deep-research deliverable, commit 2 of 5.
Service-layer wiring for first-class N-level CA hierarchy management.
The connector rewrite that activates this surface lands in commit 3.
Files added:
internal/service/intermediate_ca.go — IntermediateCAService
with 6 methods:
CreateRoot:
registers operator-
supplied root cert+key
reference. Validates
RFC 5280 §3.2 self-
signed (subject ==
issuer + signature
verifies). Cross-
checks the supplied
keyDriverID resolves
to a signer whose
public key matches
the cert (rejects
mismatched bundles
at registration
time, not at first
CreateChild — the
ErrCAKeyMismatch
sentinel).
CreateChild:
generates child key
via signer.Driver,
signs the cert via
the parent's signer.
Enforces RFC 5280
§4.2.1.9 (path-len
tightening) +
§4.2.1.10
(NameConstraints
subset semantics) at
service layer fail-
closed. Defaults
child path-len to
parent-1 when
unset; caps child
validity at parent's
not_after (RFC 5280
§4.1.2.5).
Retire: two-phase
drain — first call
active → retiring,
second call (with
confirm=true)
retiring → retired.
Refuses retired
transition if active
children still exist
(the
ErrCAStillHasActiveChildren
sentinel — drain-
first semantics).
Get / LoadHierarchy:
thin repo wrappers.
AssembleChain: walks
WalkAncestry (the
recursive CTE
shipped in commit 1)
and returns the
leaf-to-root PEM
bundle for the
local connector to
attach to
IssuanceResult.
internal/service/intermediate_ca_metrics.go — IntermediateCAMetrics:
per-(issuer_id, kind)
counter, mirrors the
ApprovalMetrics +
ExpiryAlertMetrics
pattern. RecordCreate
(root/child) +
RecordRetire
(retiring/retired).
SnapshotIntermediateCA
for the Prometheus
exposer.
Defense in depth retained:
- NEVER persist CA private key bytes in the row. KeyDriverID is the
only key reference; signer.Driver.Load resolves it at signing time.
- The Driver interface has 3 methods (Load/Generate/Name) — no
Import surface. CreateRoot accepts a pre-positioned KeyDriverID
rather than raw key bytes; the operator owns where the root key
physically lives. Future PKCS11Driver / CloudKMSDriver close the
file-on-disk leg without touching this service.
Verified locally:
gofmt: clean.
go vet ./internal/service/...: exit 0.
go build ./internal/service/...: exit 0.
Deferred to commit 2.5 (or fold into commit 3, operator's call):
- 9 service-level tests including:
* TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RegistersOperatorSuppliedSelfSigned
* TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RejectsNonSelfSigned
* TestIntermediateCA_CreateRoot_RejectsKeyMismatch
* TestIntermediateCA_CreateChild_PathLenTighteningEnforced
* TestIntermediateCA_CreateChild_NameConstraintsSubset
* TestIntermediateCA_AssembleChain_4DeepHierarchy ← LOAD-BEARING
* TestIntermediateCA_Retire_RefusesIfActiveChildren
* TestIntermediateCA_Retire_TwoPhaseConfirm
* TestIntermediateCA_MetricsRecordedPerOutcome
Test setup needs: in-memory IntermediateCARepository fake +
signer.MemoryDriver (already exists) + helper to generate test root
cert+key. Fake repo's WalkAncestry implementation needs to mirror
the recursive-CTE semantics for the AssembleChain pin to be
meaningful. Total ~500 lines of test code; non-trivial setup.

domain, migrations: IntermediateCA type + intermediate_cas + Issuer.HierarchyMode
Rank 8 of the 2026-05-03 deep-research deliverable, commit 1 of 5
(cowork/rank-8-intermediate-ca-hierarchy-prompt.md). Closes the multi-
level CA hierarchy gap for FedRAMP boundary-CA, financial-services
policy-CA, and OT network-CA deployments where regulator-mandated
certificate-policy separation requires multiple layers (root → policy
→ issuing).
This commit lands ONLY the foundation — schema, types, repository
interface, postgres implementation. No service / connector / handler
wiring yet. The 5-commit chain is bisectable: this commit can ship
with no operator-visible behavior change until commits 2-5 wire the
service layer + the local-connector tree-mode + admin API + GUI tree
view + operator runbook. The default value for issuers.hierarchy_mode
is 'single' so every existing operator's behavior is byte-identical
post-migration.
Existing scaffolding REUSED (not redefined):
- internal/crypto/signer.Driver seam — every IntermediateCA carries
a key_driver_id pointing at the signer.Driver instance that owns
its private key. Defense in depth: NEVER persist key bytes in a
row. FileDriver is the production default; future PKCS11Driver /
CloudKMSDriver close the disk-exposure leg via the same seam.
- issuers.id row — the new intermediate_cas FK references it.
Files added:
internal/domain/intermediate_ca.go — IntermediateCA type,
IntermediateCAState
closed enum (active /
retiring / retired),
IsValidIntermediateCAState
+ IsTerminal helpers,
NameConstraint struct
(RFC 5280 §4.2.1.10
permitted+excluded
subtree subset
semantics for service-
layer enforcement),
HierarchyModeSingle /
HierarchyModeTree
constants.
internal/repository/postgres/intermediate_ca.go — IntermediateCARepository
impl: Create (ica-<slug>
ID gen, JSONB +
nullable-column round-
trip, lib/pq 23505 →
ErrAlreadyExists),
Get, ListByIssuer,
ListChildren,
UpdateState,
GetActiveRoot,
WalkAncestry (recursive
CTE — single SQL
round-trip, O(depth)
rows, leaf-first
ordering).
migrations/000028_intermediate_ca_hierarchy.{up,down}.sql
— idempotent schema.
issuers.hierarchy_mode
VARCHAR(20) DEFAULT
'single'. New
intermediate_cas table
with FKs to
issuers / self
(parent_ca_id) +
CHECK constraints
(closed-enum state,
not_after >
not_before, no self-
parent) + 6 indexes
(partial-unique
active root per
issuer, partial-
unique name per
issuer, owning
issuer, parent,
state, expiring).
Files modified:
internal/domain/connector.go — adds Issuer.HierarchyMode field
with full doc comment + JSON tag.
Empty string ≡ single mode for
back-compat.
internal/repository/interfaces.go — adds IntermediateCARepository
interface (7 methods).

ci: fix Rank 7 lint + openapi-handler-parity drift on master
Two CI failures from the Rank 7 chain push (#438): Go Build & Test — staticcheck ST1021: internal/service/approval_metrics.go:97 comment for ApprovalDecisionEntry doesn't start with the type name internal/service/approval_metrics.go:130 comment for ApprovalPendingAgeSnapshot doesn't start with the type name Frontend Build — scripts/ci-guards/openapi-handler-parity.sh: 4 router routes have no OpenAPI operationId: GET /api/v1/approvals GET /api/v1/approvals/{id} POST /api/v1/approvals/{id}/approve POST /api/v1/approvals/{id}/reject The Rank 7 commit-3 spec deferred OpenAPI extension to commit 4 with a 'batched alongside the integration changes' note; commit 4 didn't actually add them. This commit closes that gap. Fixes: approval_metrics.go — split the doc comment that was attached to SnapshotApprovalDecisions (the function) but visually preceded ApprovalDecisionEntry (the type), so the type appeared to staticcheck as having a comment that named the function instead of the type. Same fix on ApprovalPendingAgeSnapshot. Now each exported type has its own type-name-leading comment per Go convention. api/openapi.yaml — added 4 new operationIds (listApprovalRequests, getApprovalRequest, approveApprovalRequest, rejectApprovalRequest) + new ApprovalRequest schema component under components/schemas. Inline 401 response (the Unauthorized component does not exist in this spec; the canonical pattern in the rest of the file is inline 'description: Authentication required'). The two-person integrity contract surface is documented in the description of the approve / reject endpoints so external readers see the RBAC contract from the spec alone. Verified locally: go vet ./internal/service/...: exit 0. scripts/ci-guards/openapi-handler-parity.sh: clean (140 ops vs 174 routes, 36 documented exceptions). Third CI failure (image-and-supply-chain) was a transient apt-fetch 'Connection reset by peer' from deb.debian.org while pulling libasan6_10.2.1-6_amd64.deb. Not a code issue; just re-run the workflow. No code change needed. |

docs(approval-workflow): drop Infisical reference from operator playbook
The operator-facing approval-workflow.md is the public-readable docs page; the 'Infisical deep-research deliverable' framing is internal project context that doesn't belong there. Internal source comments + research docs in cowork/ keep the original framing as the historical record. |
