Mechanical sed across the main go.mod's module declaration, the f5-mock-icontrol
sub-module's go.mod, every Go file's import path (361 files), and a rebuild of
the checked-in f5-mock-icontrol binary so its embedded build-info reflects the
new module path. No behavior change.
Choice B from cowork/transfer-certctl-to-org.md, executed 2026-05-04. Choice A
(keep module path declared as github.com/shankar0123/certctl regardless of
repo URL) shipped on the day of the org transfer (2026-05-03) since we had no
external Go consumers; this commit closes that deferral.
Backward-compat: GitHub HTTP redirects continue to forward
github.com/shankar0123/certctl → github.com/certctl-io/certctl at the URL
level, but Go's module proxy uses the path declared in go.mod as the
canonical name. Pre-fix, anyone trying `go get github.com/certctl-io/certctl/...`
hit a "module path mismatch" error because go.mod said
github.com/shankar0123/certctl and the URL they fetched it from said
certctl-io/certctl. Post-fix, the canonical name and the URL agree, so
go get / go install / external Go consumers / Go-tooling integrations
work cleanly via either the new path (preferred) or the old path (which
redirects and Go follows the redirect for source fetch).
Anyone still importing the old path inside their own code keeps working
provided they update their go.mod's `require` line to match — the module
path declared in their consumer's go.sum / go.mod is the authoritative
import name, so a mass sed across their import statements is the migration
on the consumer side. No external consumers exist today.
Diff shape:
361 *.go files — import path replacement only
2 go.mod — module declaration replacement only
1 binary — deploy/test/f5-mock-icontrol/f5-mock-icontrol rebuilt
so embedded build-info reflects the new path (8618965 vs
8618933 bytes; 32-byte diff is the build-info change)
Total: 364 files, 730 insertions / 730 deletions, net-zero size, pure
mechanical substitution.
Verification:
gofmt: 17 files needed re-alignment after sed (the new path is one char
shorter than the old, so column-aligned import groups drifted). Applied
`gofmt -w` to fix.
go mod tidy: clean exit on both modules.
go vet ./...: clean exit.
go build ./...: clean exit.
go test -short -count=1 on representative packages: all green
(internal/domain, internal/validation, internal/crypto, internal/crypto/signer,
cmd/agent). Test output now reads `ok github.com/certctl-io/certctl/...`
confirming the module path resolves correctly.
binary: f5-mock-icontrol rebuilt; `strings | grep shankar0123` returns
nothing; `strings | grep certctl-io/certctl` shows the new module path
embedded in build-info.
Files intentionally NOT touched in this commit:
README.md / CHANGELOG.md / docs/ / etc. — already swept to certctl-io
URLs in commit bc6039a (the post-transfer URL refresh). This commit is
purely the Go-tooling layer.
Scarf pixels (`shankar0123.docker.scarf.sh/...`) — Scarf-account
namespace, not a Go import or GitHub repo URL. Stays.
This is a non-blocking, non-customer-impacting change. Operators pulling
container images, running `make verify`, hitting the API, or installing the
agent see no functional difference. Only Go-tooling consumers (none today)
are affected, and they're enabled — not broken — by this commit.
Phase 8 of the deploy-hardening I master bundle. F5 + IIS already
have transactional / explicit-backup-restore rollback semantics
in their DeployCertificate paths. Phase 8 adds the explicit
ValidateOnly dry-run probe that operators use to preview a deploy
without touching the live cert.
F5 (validate_only.go):
- ValidateOnly probes the iControl REST API via Authenticate.
Cheap (no F5 transaction created) + cached after first success.
Failure surfaces as a wrapped error so operators see the actual
cause (auth provider down, invalid creds, BIG-IP unreachable,
etc.). nil client returns ErrValidateOnlyNotSupported.
- A true cert-bind dry-run requires F5's no-commit transaction
mode (v17.5+); V3-Pro can add per-version dispatch. V2 ships
the reachability probe as the load-bearing safety check.
- 5 new tests in validate_only_test.go covering: auth-success,
auth-fail wrapped, nil-client sentinel, error-message contains
BIG-IP context, recoverable auth-fail surfaces provider info.
IIS (validate_only.go):
- ValidateOnly runs `Get-WebSite -Name <SiteName>` via the
injected PowerShellExecutor. Confirms the IIS PS module is
loaded AND the site exists AND the agent has admin privileges.
Failure here surfaces the actual PowerShell stderr (site not
found / module missing / access denied).
- A true cert-bind dry-run would need IIS to expose a no-commit
New-WebBinding (it doesn't); V3-Pro can extend with a
temp-install + immediate-remove. V2 ships the permission +
module probe as the load-bearing check.
- 5 new tests in validate_only_test.go covering: get-website
succeeds, get-website fails, nil-executor sentinel, site-name
quoting (handles spaces in 'Default Web Site'), output-context
in error.
Smoke test connectorsAtPhase3 list shrunk from 10 to 7 entries
(f5 + iis + postfix removed). Caddy stays in (file-mode returns
sentinel; api-mode is real-impl). Envoy + Traefik stay in (no
validate-with-target command exists for either). javakeystore +
k8ssecret + ssh + wincertstore stay in pending Phase 9.
Coverage: F5 holds at ≥85%; IIS holds at ≥85%. Race detector
clean. golangci-lint v2.11.4 clean.
Phase 9 next: SSH + WinCertStore + JavaKeystore + K8s — the
non-file-server connectors.
