shankar0123 e7509ddad8 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 cb154a8)

INCORRECT count claims repaired (12):
- api.md L5 + L18-19 + L155: '78 API operations' / '# 78' /
  'all 78 documented operations' → re-derive via
  grep -cE '^\s+operationId:' (actual at HEAD: 144)
- architecture.md L66 (Mermaid label) + L502 + L1047 + L1253:
  '8 always-on + 4 optional loops' / '12-loop topology' →
  9 always-on + 5 opt-in loops (14 total). Always-on/opt-in
  breakdown derived from cmd/server/main.go startup wiring:
  always-on are agentHealthCheck, crlGeneration, jobProcessor,
  jobRetry, jobTimeout, notificationProcess, notificationRetry,
  renewalCheck, shortLivedExpiryCheck (9); opt-in are
  networkScan, digest, healthCheck, cloudDiscovery, acmeGC (5).
  Re-derive count via grep -cE '^func \(s \*Scheduler\)
  [a-zA-Z]+Loop' internal/scheduler/scheduler.go.
- configuration.md L31: '12 loops, 8 always-on + 4 opt-in' →
  '14 loops, 9 always-on + 5 opt-in'. Self-introduced regression
  from commit a3599ad (2026-05-05).
- mcp.md L11 + L65: 'all 78 API endpoints' / '78 available tools'
  → re-derive via grep -cE 'mcp\.AddTool\(' (actual at HEAD:
  87 MCP tools, 144 API operations).
- connectors/index.md L111: '9 built-in' issuer connectors →
  '12 built-in', extending the inline enumeration to include
  Entrust, GlobalSign, EJBCA (which had been added since the
  L111 prose was written). Local-CA framing extended to mention
  tree mode + ADCS sub-CA mode-doc.
- connectors/index.md L112: '14 built-in' target connectors →
  '15 built-in', adding AWS ACM target + Azure Key Vault target
  (which had been added since the L112 prose was written).
- why-certctl.md L37 + the inline list: 'Nine issuer connectors
  ship today' → 'Twelve issuer connectors', adding
  AWS ACM PCA, Entrust, GlobalSign, EJBCA to the list and
  removing the misleading 'EST enrollment' bullet (EST is a
  protocol surface, not an issuer; clarified in trailing note).
- why-certctl.md L66: '13 deployment targets' → '15', adding
  Kubernetes Secrets, AWS ACM, and Azure KV to the inline list.
- why-certctl.md L92: 'supports 9 issuer types' → '12 issuer
  types'.
- quickstart.md L135: '35 demo certificates across 5 issuers'
  → re-derive cert count via 'grep -oE "mc-[a-z0-9_-]+"
  migrations/seed_demo.sql | sort -u | wc -l' (actual: 32,
  matches README L86; quickstart was off-by-3).
- quickstart.md L452 (Demo Data Reference table): Certificates
  '35' → '32' (matches the cert count from seed_demo.sql).

Verification:
- grep confirms no remaining stale refs across the touched
  files (8 files, 31 insertions / 28 deletions).
- All 24 ci-guards/*.sh pass locally.
- The audit's STALE findings (S-1, S-2 qa-test-suite.md
  Bundle-P snapshot) are operator-side: run 'make qa-stats'
  to refresh the Test Suite Health table.

Companion: cowork/docs-audit-2026-05-05/RESULTS.md captures
the full audit with subagent false positives and missed
findings called out.

shankar0123 7c134d0575 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.

shankar0123 a3599ad8fb ci: post-Phase-2-docs-overhaul cleanup of stale guards + missing config doc
CI run on the d8aa3fc push surfaced two real failures rooted in the
2026-05-04 docs overhaul:

  1. G-3 env-docs-drift caught two phantom CERTCTL_* env vars I'd
     introduced in the Phase 4 follow-on connector pages
     (CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH_NEW in adcs.md was a placeholder I made
     up; CERTCTL_EJBCA_POLL_MAX_WAIT_SECONDS in ejbca.md does not
     exist in source). Both removed.

  2. QA-doc Part-count drift guard tried to grep
     docs/qa-test-guide.md and docs/testing-guide.md, both of which
     were renamed/deleted in Phase 2/Phase 5. The Part-count drift
     class died with testing-guide.md (Phase 5 prune dispersed its
     content); the seed-count drift class is still live but pointed
     at the wrong path.

Fixes:

- Removed the QA-doc Part-count drift guard from ci.yml (premise
  dead) plus its standalone scripts/qa-doc-part-count.sh peer.
- Retargeted the QA-doc seed-count drift guard from
  docs/qa-test-guide.md → docs/contributor/qa-test-suite.md (the
  Phase 2 target). Updated both ci.yml inline copy and
  scripts/qa-doc-seed-count.sh.
- Updated Makefile qa-stats: target to drop the testing-guide.md
  Parts metric (file is gone).
- Updated Makefile verify-docs: target to drop the part-count step.

G-3 was also failing in the second direction (env vars defined in
config.go but never documented anywhere). 16 vars surfaced —
features.md (deleted Phase 6) and testing-guide.md (deleted Phase 5)
had been their canonical home. Created
docs/reference/configuration.md as the new home: a compact
operator-facing env-var reference covering scheduler intervals, job
lifecycle, rate limiting, audit, deploy verify, database,
agent-side, and SCEP profile binding. Added to docs/README.md
Reference table.

Doc-side updates to qa-test-suite.md to reframe its references to
the deleted testing-guide.md (it's now self-contained: the
Part-by-Part Coverage Map IS the canonical Part inventory).

Cosmetic comment-only updates in ci.yml + scripts/ci-guards/*.sh +
scripts/dev-setup.sh to point at the new audience-organized doc
paths (docs/operator/security.md, docs/operator/tls.md,
docs/reference/architecture.md, etc.) instead of the pre-Phase-2
flat layout.

Verified: all 24 ci-guards/*.sh pass locally; qa-doc-seed-count.sh
clean. Net diff: 178 additions / 112 deletions across 13 files.
One file deleted (qa-doc-part-count.sh) and one file added
(docs/reference/configuration.md).

shankar0123 d8aa3fca2f docs: cleanup pre-existing broken links in connector pages
Phase 4 structural (commit 9cec5ca) moved 6 connector files into the
new docs/reference/connectors/ subdirectory but didn't update all
inter-doc references for the new path layout. Phase 11 caught the
high-traffic ones; this sweep gets the rest, found by the Phase 4
follow-on verification pass.

Mappings applied (relative to docs/reference/connectors/):

  deployment-atomicity.md     → ../deployment-model.md
  deployment-vendor-matrix.md → ../vendor-matrix.md
  architecture.md             → ../architecture.md
  est.md                      → ../protocols/est.md
  scep-intune.md              → ../protocols/scep-intune.md
  async-polling.md            → ../protocols/async-ca-polling.md
  quickstart.md               → ../../getting-started/quickstart.md
  demo-advanced.md            → ../../getting-started/advanced-demo.md
  legacy-est-scep.md          → ../protocols/scep-server.md
  connectors.md               → index.md

Plus prose backtick references (`docs/architecture.md` etc.) updated
to the new subdirectory paths.

Files touched: apache, f5, iis, k8s, nginx, index. 33 line changes.
Full link-check across docs/reference/connectors/*.md is now clean
(0 broken inter-doc references).

  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

- 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.

shankar0123 430180360d 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

- 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).

shankar0123 c64777f655 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).

shankar0123 ed5e890acc 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)

shankar0123 77788ccda9 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-...)

shankar0123 97f51cc044 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.

shankar0123 2362ca303d 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.

shankar0123 9cec5cab65 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.

shankar0123 cb154a8388 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).

shankar0123 b375df767e docs: Phase 2 mechanical file moves to subdirectory structure
Pure git mv operations; no content edits. Internal links remain pointing
at old paths and will be fixed in Phase 11. Per the Phase 1 audit
recommendations at cowork/docs-overhaul-phase-1-audit-2026-05-04/.

35 files moved across 8 audience-organized subdirectories:

  docs/getting-started/ (5):
    quickstart.md, concepts.md, examples.md, advanced-demo.md (was
    demo-advanced.md), why-certctl.md

  docs/reference/ (6):
    architecture.md, api.md (was openapi.md), mcp.md,
    intermediate-ca-hierarchy.md, deployment-model.md (was
    deployment-atomicity.md), vendor-matrix.md (was
    deployment-vendor-matrix.md)

  docs/reference/protocols/ (6):
    acme-server.md, acme-server-threat-model.md, scep-intune.md,
    est.md, crl-ocsp.md, async-ca-polling.md (was async-polling.md)

  docs/operator/ (4):
    security.md, tls.md, database-tls.md, approval-workflow.md

  docs/operator/runbooks/ (3):
    cloud-targets.md (was runbook-cloud-targets.md), expiry-alerts.md
    (was runbook-expiry-alerts.md), disaster-recovery.md

  docs/migration/ (3):
    from-certbot.md (was migrate-from-certbot.md), from-acmesh.md
    (was migrate-from-acmesh.md), cert-manager-coexistence.md (was
    certctl-for-cert-manager-users.md)

  docs/compliance/ (4):
    index.md (was compliance.md), soc2.md (was compliance-soc2.md),
    pci-dss.md (was compliance-pci-dss.md), nist-sp-800-57.md (was
    compliance-nist.md)

  docs/contributor/ (4):
    testing-strategy.md, test-environment.md (was test-env.md),
    ci-pipeline.md, qa-test-suite.md (was qa-test-guide.md)

Deferred to later Phase 2 sub-phases:
  - connectors.md split (Phase 4): docs/connectors.md +
    docs/connector-{apache,f5,iis,k8s,nginx}.md still at top level
  - testing-guide.md prune (Phase 5): docs/testing-guide.md still
    at top level
  - features.md disperse (Phase 6): docs/features.md still at top
    level
  - legacy-est-scep.md split (Phase 7): docs/legacy-est-scep.md
    still at top level
  - ACME walkthrough re-homing (Phase 8): three
    docs/acme-*-walkthrough.md still at top level
  - Upgrade docs archive (Phase 3): two docs/upgrade-*.md still
    at top level

Cross-reference updates (Phase 11) will happen after all moves and
content edits land. Internal links to docs/* paths are temporarily
broken until that phase completes.
