Add three new issuer connectors completing commercial and open-source CA
coverage. Entrust uses mTLS client certificate auth with sync/async
issuance. GlobalSign Atlas uses mTLS + API key/secret dual auth with
serial-based tracking. EJBCA supports dual auth (mTLS or OAuth2) for
self-hosted Keyfactor CAs.
Each connector implements the full issuer.Connector interface (9 methods),
includes httptest-based unit tests (~14 each), and follows established
patterns (injectable HTTP clients, RFC 5280 revocation reason mapping,
CRL/OCSP delegated to CA).
Also includes: issuer factory cases, env var seeding, config structs,
domain types, seed data (3 rows, all disabled), OpenAPI enum updates,
frontend issuer catalog entries with config fields, and full docs
(connectors.md, architecture.md, features.md, README).

Enforce certificate profile crypto constraints across all 5 issuance paths
(renewal, agent CSR, EST, SCEP). ValidateCSRAgainstProfile() rejects CSRs
with key algorithm/size that don't match profile rules. MaxTTL enforcement
caps certificate validity per issuer connector (Local CA, Vault, step-ca
enforce directly; ACME/DigiCert/Sectigo pass through). Key algorithm and
size are now persisted in certificate_versions for audit compliance.
16 new tests (12 service-layer + 4 Local CA connector). Removes hardcoded
version number from GUI sidebar. Documentation updated across architecture,
features, connectors, and README.

Implements Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol with single-endpoint
operation-based dispatch (GetCACaps, GetCACert, PKIOperation), PKCS#7
SignedData CSR extraction with fallback for raw/base64 CSR, challenge
password authentication via CSR attributes, and shared internal/pkcs7
package extracted from EST handler to eliminate code duplication.
24 new tests (11 service + 13 handler) plus 5 shared pkcs7 package tests.

Broadened BSL Additional Use Grant from "hosted or managed service" to cover
any commercial offering (embedded, bundled, integrated). Updated README to
promote all shipped connectors from Beta to Implemented, added EST/ARI/S/MIME
highlight, Helm quickstart, and corrected license description. Fixed
connectors.md stale claims (AWS ACM PCA listed as planned, K8s Secrets
listed as coming soon) and updated overview with exact connector counts.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Rewrote docs/features.md from scratch as authoritative feature inventory
(1255 lines, every claim verified against source files).
Audited README.md and architecture.md against repo — fixed 19 stale
references: K8s Secrets status, issuer counts, dashboard page counts,
CI thresholds, missing connectors in Mermaid diagrams, OpenAPI operation
count, GetCACertPEM behavior, and V2/V4 roadmap accuracy.
Also includes related fixes discovered during audit:
- Scheduler skips expired/failed/revoked certs from auto-renewal
- Seed demo expiry dates moved outside 31-day scheduler query window
- Agent pages use correct last_heartbeat_at field name
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Kubernetes Secrets target connector has config validation, tests, UI,
and Helm RBAC implemented but the realK8sClient is a stub — runtime
deployment will fail. Update README and connectors.md to reflect actual
status instead of misleading 'Beta' label.
Also increase the audit trail GUI default from 50 to 200 events per page
(backend already permits up to 500).

1717-line Go test file covering all 52 Parts of testing-guide.md against the
Docker Compose demo stack. ~120 automated subtests (API, DB, source, perf),
11 skipped Parts with reasons, ~270 manual gaps documented. Audited against
actual router, seed data, domain structs, and migrations — 8 factual bugs
caught and fixed during review. Companion guide at docs/qa-test-guide.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Refactored testing-guide.md from V2.0 (42 Parts, 444 tests) to V2.1 (52 Parts, 507 tests):
- Expanded Part 11 (ARI) and Part 19 (Agent Work Routing) with What/Why intro
paragraphs and per-test annotations explaining the production impact
- Replaced Part 40 (Documentation) passive table with 8 executable verification
tests (README screenshots, issuer/target type matching, OpenAPI parity, etc.)
- Added Part 39 benchmark tests for Prometheus endpoint and audit trail queries
- Added 11 new Part sections (42-52) covering all previously untested features:
Envoy, Postfix/Dovecot, SSH, WinCertStore, JavaKeystore, Digest Email,
Dynamic Issuer/Target Config, Onboarding Wizard, ACME Profiles, Helm Chart
- Fixed stale TOC entries (regenerated from actual headings)
- Removed duplicate TOC block left from previous reorder
- Added sign-off chart entries for all new Parts
- Updated summary: 144 auto (passed) + 88 auto (pending) + 5 skipped + 270 manual = 507 total

- HSM/TPM agent key storage and CA key storage moved from V5+ to V3 Pro
(enterprise compliance gate, not adoption driver)
- Renamed roadmap.md to strategy.md (gitignored, never committed)
- Updated compliance-nist.md HSM references from V5 to V3 Pro
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- New deploy/ENVIRONMENTS.md: comprehensive walkthrough of all 4 compose
files with service-by-service explanations, beginner-friendly Docker
concepts, and expert-level networking/config details
- Fix docker-compose.dev.yml: agent LOG_LEVEL → CERTCTL_LOG_LEVEL (was
silently ignored without the CERTCTL_ prefix)
- Add CERTCTL_CONFIG_ENCRYPTION_KEY to base and test compose (enables
M34/M35 dynamic issuer/target config encryption)
- Add CERTCTL_DISCOVERY_DIRS to base compose agent (enables filesystem
certificate discovery in default deployment)
- Cross-link ENVIRONMENTS.md from README doc table and quickstart.md
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- README: Add 7 missing docs to documentation table (MCP server, OpenAPI
guide, migration guides for certbot/acme.sh/cert-manager, test
environment, testing guide). Fix connector reference description to
remove stale counts. Link OpenAPI guide instead of raw YAML.
- architecture.md: Add cross-references to testing-guide.md and
test-env.md from testing strategy section and What's Next links.
These were the only two orphaned docs with zero inbound references.

Three related ACME ecosystem changes shipped as a single milestone:
1. ACME Certificate Profile Selection: Custom JWS-signed newOrder POST with
`profile` field (e.g., `tlsserver`, `shortlived` for 6-day certs) bypassing
acme.Client.AuthorizeOrder() since golang.org/x/crypto lacks profile support.
ES256 JWS signing with kid mode, nonce management, directory discovery.
Empty profile delegates to standard library path (zero behavior change).
Configurable via CERTCTL_ACME_PROFILE env var. GUI: profile dropdown on
ACME issuer config.
2. ARI RFC 9702 → 9773 Renumber: All 25+ references updated across Go source,
docs, README, and examples. Zero remaining occurrences of RFC 9702.
3. 45-Day / Short-Lived Certificate Positioning: 5 domain tests validating
renewal thresholds against SC-081v3 validity reduction timeline (200→100→47
days) and Let's Encrypt 45-day/6-day profiles. ARI (RFC 9773) is the
expected renewal path for 6-day shortlived certs.
New tests: 13 profile + 5 domain threshold + 1 frontend = 19 new tests.

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.

Replace brittle test count numbers (1,554+, 1,088+, 211, etc.) with
descriptions of testing approach and CI-enforced coverage gates.
Counts go stale every milestone — coverage thresholds are machine-
verified and never drift.

Google Cloud Certificate Authority Service integration via REST API
with OAuth2 service account auth (JWT→access token). Synchronous
issuance model, CA pool selection, mutex-guarded token caching,
revocation with RFC 5280 reason mapping. No Google SDK dependency —
all stdlib. 19 tests with httptest mock OAuth2 + CAS API.

Create docs/examples.md as the central entry point for all 5 turnkey
docker-compose scenarios with a decision matrix, per-example summaries,
and contextual migration guide links. Update quickstart.md to bridge
from demo to real deployment. Consolidate README docs table (10 rows
from 13). Fix Vault PKI "(planned)" in cert-manager guide.

Audit all docs and examples against current codebase state. Fix seed_demo.sql
domain constant casing (IssuerType, TargetType, AgentStatus) that would cause
agent dispatch failures. Fix example docker-compose health endpoints (/health
not /api/v1/health) and env var names (CERTCTL_DATABASE_URL). Update connector
counts, test numbers, and planned→implemented status across docs. Convert 3
ASCII flow diagrams to Mermaid.

Fix stale competitive claims (IIS shipped in M39, target count now 10),
add 47-day operational math as forcing function, add credibility signals
(1554 tests, 97 API operations, CI pipeline), restructure competitive
comparisons by category for scannability, add "What Else Ships Free"
feature surface section, add "Who Should Look Elsewhere" disqualification,
move ownership message to opening paragraph.

Implement full IIS target connector with PEM-to-PFX conversion via
go-pkcs12, PowerShell-based deployment (Import-PfxCertificate, IIS
binding management), SHA-1 thumbprint computation, and SNI support.
Injectable PowerShellExecutor interface enables cross-platform testing.
Regex-validated config fields prevent PowerShell injection. 28 tests.
Restructure README from 563 to 313 lines: outcome-focused feature
descriptions, "Who Is This For" persona section, examples promoted
above the fold, configuration/API/security reference moved to docs.
All numbers verified against repo (25 GUI pages, 97 OpenAPI ops,
CI thresholds service 55%/handler 60%/domain 40%/middleware 30%).

Add S/MIME (emailProtection EKU) end-to-end test coverage:
- ValidateCommonName() now accepts email addresses for S/MIME certs
- S/MIME test profile (prof-test-smime) in seed data
- Phase 11 test: issuance, EKU, KeyUsage, email SAN verification
- EST config enabled in test Docker Compose
- Portable KeyUsage parsing (awk, works on BSD/GNU)
- Full test environment documentation (docs/test-env.md)

Frontend audit (10 categories): lifecycle fields in types, new API
functions (CRL, OCSP, deployments, updateIssuer/Target, getPolicy),
issuer/owner/profile filters on CertificatesPage, last_renewal_at
column, error_message column on JobsPage, full crypto policy UI on
ProfilesPage (key algorithms, EKUs, SAN patterns), key info + CA
badge on DiscoveryPage, edit modal on TargetDetailPage, tags field
on certificate creation, darwin→macOS mapping on AgentFleetPage.
211 Vitest tests passing.
README accuracy: test counts (1300+ Go, 211 frontend), page count
(24), demo data (32 certs, 7 issuers, 180 days), endpoint count
(97), MCP tools (80), CLI subcommands (10), moved shipped items
out of "Coming in v2.1.0".
Docs: architecture.md diagrams updated (Vault PKI, DigiCert,
Traefik, Caddy added), features.md Vault/DigiCert status updated.
Version bumped to v2.0.20. cli binary removed from git tracking.
Testing guide Part 41 added (12 auto + 9 manual tests).

Issuer Catalog (M33):
- Shared issuer type config (issuerTypes.ts) with 6 supported + 2 coming-soon types
- Composable wizard components (TypeSelector, ConfigForm, ConfigDetailModal)
- Catalog card layout with Connected/Available/Coming Soon badges
- VaultPKI and DigiCert added to create wizard with full config fields
- ACME EAB fields (eab_kid, eab_hmac with sensitive flag)
- Issuer type filter dropdown on configured issuers table
- Config detail modal replacing 60-char truncation
- IssuerDetailPage uses shared typeLabels/redactConfig, Edit button, enabled/disabled status
- StatusBadge extended with Enabled/Disabled styles
- 2 new frontend tests (VaultPKI + DigiCert create payload verification)
Bug fixes:
- CertificateService.CreateCertificate now defaults Status to Pending and Tags to
empty map when not set (DB column DEFAULTs only apply when columns are omitted
from INSERT, but our repo always includes all columns)
- CreateCertificate handler now logs actual error via slog.Error before returning
generic 500, enabling root cause debugging

Wire all remaining backend features to the frontend GUI:
New pages:
- DigestPage: preview digest HTML via iframe + send with confirmation
- ObservabilityPage: health status, metrics gauges, Prometheus config + live output
- JobDetailPage: full job details, verification section, timeline, audit events
- IssuerDetailPage: redacted config, test connection, issued certificates list
- TargetDetailPage: config, agent link, deployment history with verification
Existing page updates:
- JobsPage: clickable job IDs, verification column with VerificationBadge
- IssuersPage: clickable issuer names linking to detail page
- TargetsPage: clickable target names linking to detail page
- Sidebar: Digest and Observability nav items
- 5 new routes in main.tsx
API client: getJob, getIssuer, getTarget, getJobVerification, getPrometheusMetrics
Tests: 7 new Vitest tests (203 total), testing-guide Part 37 (17 manual tests)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Deployment jobs now set agent_id from target→agent relationship at
creation time. GetPendingWork() uses ListPendingByAgentID() with a
3-way UNION query (direct match, legacy NULL fallback via target JOIN,
AwaitingCSR via cert→target→agent chain) so each agent only receives
its own jobs.
- Added AgentID *string to Job domain struct
- Added agent_id to all job SQL queries (5 SELECTs, INSERT, UPDATE, scanJob)
- New ListPendingByAgentID() repository method
- Rewrote GetPendingWork() from ~25 lines to single scoped query
- 4 new Go tests (3 agent routing + 1 deployment agent_id)
- Frontend: agent_id/target_id on Job type

CheckExpiringCertificates() now queries each issuer's ARI endpoint
before creating renewal jobs. If the CA says "not yet" (suggested
window hasn't opened), renewal is deferred. ARI errors fall back
gracefully to threshold-based logic. Audit trail records
renewal_trigger=ari when ARI drives the decision.
4 new unit tests: ShouldRenewNow, NotYet, NilFallback, ErrorFallback.
3 new smoke tests in testing-guide.md Part 35.

- Replace JSON config blocks with env var format (actual config method)
- Fix policy creation flow to match actual GUI (name/type/severity/config)
- Fix issuer wizard description to match actual 2-step flow
- Fix Vault PKI "coming in v2.1" → "planned" (ships post-2.1.0)
- Fix 5 broken links (cert-manager.md, quickstart anchors, architecture anchor)
- Remove claim of auto-generated suggestions in discovery flow

Root cause: certificate_versions.csr_pem is nullable in the schema but
Go code scanned it into a plain string. Used sql.NullString in
ListVersions and GetLatestVersion to handle NULL values correctly.
Also includes: partial update fetch-merge-update pattern to prevent FK
violations, nil directory guard in discovery service, diagnostic slog
logging in handlers, export handler 422 for unparseable PEM, OpenAPI
spec corrections, MCP tool description improvements, and test fixes.
Rewrites the Release Sign-Off section in testing-guide.md to individual
test-level granularity (320 rows) with smoke test results audited and

Add certificate export in PEM (JSON or file download) and PKCS#12 formats.
Private keys are never included — they stay on agents. Add EKU-aware
issuance threading profile EKUs (serverAuth, clientAuth, codeSigning,
emailProtection, timeStamping) through the full issuance pipeline. Fix
agent CSR SAN splitting for email addresses, adaptive KeyUsage flags for
S/MIME vs TLS, and a pre-existing generateID collision bug in deployment
job creation.
