The ballot passed 25-0-5 among CAs and 4-0-0 among browsers.
Not unanimous due to 5 CA abstentions (Entrust, IdenTrust,
Japan Registry Services, SECOM, TWCA).

Three architectural decisions from user feedback:
1. Pull-only deployment model — server never initiates outbound
connections. Network appliances (F5, Palo Alto, FortiGate, Citrix)
use a proxy agent in the same network zone. Added as design principle
#2 across all docs.
2. IIS dual-mode — agent-local PowerShell (primary/recommended) + proxy
agent WinRM (for agentless targets). Replaces the previous WinRM-only
design. Updated connectors.md, architecture.md, demo-advanced.md.
3. Sub-CA to ADCS — Local CA can load a pre-signed CA cert+key from
disk, so all issued certs chain to the enterprise root. Replaces the
planned standalone ADCS issuer connector. Updated concepts.md,
connectors.md, demo-advanced.md issuer diagram.

README: lead with CA/Browser Forum Ballot SC-081v3 (47-day certs by 2029)
and certctl's end-to-end automation positioning. Update architecture
diagram and target lists to include Apache/HAProxy. Update roadmap
with new M15 (Revocation Infrastructure), renumbered M16-M18, and
V3.1 cert-manager/IAM Roles Anywhere additions.
concepts.md: rewrite "Why Do Certificates Expire?" with shrinking
lifespan timeline and automation imperative.
quickstart.md: add 47-day framing in intro.
architecture.md: add Apache/HAProxy to system diagram, target connector
diagram, deployment section, and ER diagram (agent metadata columns).
Update planned targets list for V3.1. Fix test count (230+).
connectors.md: fix notifier planned version reference (V2 not V2.1).

Agents now report OS, architecture, IP address, hostname, and version
via heartbeat using runtime.GOOS, runtime.GOARCH, and net.Dial. New
migration adds columns to agents table. Heartbeat handler, service,
and repository updated to accept and persist metadata. GUI shows
OS/Arch in agent list and full system info in agent detail page.
Apache httpd connector: separate cert/chain/key files, apachectl
configtest validation, graceful reload. HAProxy connector: combined
PEM file (cert+chain+key), optional config validation, reload.
Both wired into agent binary's target connector switch.
14 tests for new connectors. All existing tests updated for new
Heartbeat/UpdateHeartbeat signatures. Docs updated across README,
architecture, concepts, and connectors guides.

The concepts guide implied DNS-01 was supported. Made it explicit
that v1 uses HTTP-01 and DNS-01 (wildcards) is on the V2 roadmap.

- Add how/why technical breakdowns to every step in demo-advanced.md:
handler→service→repository code paths, SQL details, security reasoning,
field-by-field explanations, and architectural design decisions
- Convert all ASCII box diagrams to Mermaid across docs:
architecture.md (9 diagrams), demo-advanced.md (6), concepts.md (1)
- Diagram types: flowcharts, sequence diagrams, ER diagram, state machine
- Remove placeholder Support & Community section from README
- Zero ASCII box-drawing characters remaining in docs

Runtime fixes:
- Fix env var mismatch (CERTCTL_DB_URL → CERTCTL_DATABASE_URL)
- Fix table name mismatches (certificates → managed_certificates, notifications → notification_events)
- Add renewal_policy_id to certificate queries
- Remove non-existent created_at from notification queries
- Add env var fallback for agent CLI flags
- Graceful degradation for missing notifiers/issuers in demo mode
- Copy web/ directory in Dockerfile for dashboard serving
Service layer:
- Implement handler-service interface pattern across all services
- Wire up certificate, agent, job, policy, team, owner, audit, notification services
Documentation:
- Add concepts.md: beginner-friendly guide to TLS, CAs, private keys
- Rewrite quickstart.md with accurate API examples matching actual handlers
- Add demo-advanced.md: interactive demo with cert issuance and automated script
- Update architecture.md with correct table names and connector interfaces
- Update connectors.md to match actual Go interface signatures
- Update demo-guide.md with cross-references to new docs
