Private keys never leave agent infrastructure. Agents generate ECDSA P-256
key pairs locally, store them with 0600 permissions, and submit only the CSR
(public key) to the control plane. New AwaitingCSR job state pauses
renewal/issuance jobs until the agent submits its CSR. Server-side keygen
retained behind CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE=server for demo/development.
Key changes:
- Dual keygen mode via CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE (agent default, server for demo)
- AwaitingCSR job state with CommonName/SANs in work response
- Agent ECDSA P-256 keygen, local key storage, CSR-only submission
- CompleteAgentCSRRenewal server-side flow for agent-submitted CSRs
- DeploymentRequest.KeyPEM for agent-provided keys during deployment
- Dockerfile.agent creates /var/lib/certctl/keys with correct ownership

Split the monolithic M7 (Security Baseline) into three focused
milestones: M7 (Auth + Rate Limiting), M8 (Agent-Side Key Generation),
and M9 (End-to-End Test Hardening). M9 adds handler tests for all 7
files, negative-path integration tests, scheduler/connector tests,
and CI coverage gates (service 70%+, handler 60%+). Updated v1.0
gate criteria, replaced all stale V2+ references with M8, and added
Testing Strategy section to architecture docs.

Replaces the old M5 "Polish & Release" catch-all with three focused
milestones: M5 (Hardening + GUI Foundation), M6 (Functional GUI + CI),
M7 (Security Baseline). Agent-side keygen and API auth now gate v1.0
instead of being deferred to V2. V2 resequenced into Operational
Workflows (GUI-first), Team Adoption, and Observability.
Adds explicit v1.0.0 gate criteria, "GUI parallel-tracked" architecture
principle, and Vite + React + TypeScript + TanStack Query tech decisions.

- Wire issuer connector end-to-end with IssuerConnectorAdapter (dependency inversion)
- Renewal/issuance job processor: RSA key + CSR generation, Local CA signing, cert version storage
- Agent work API (GET /agents/{id}/work) and job status API (POST /agents/{id}/jobs/{job_id}/status)
- Agent-side deployment: WorkItem enrichment with target type/config, NGINX/F5/IIS connector invocation
- Full ACME v2 implementation: HTTP-01 challenge solving, account registration, order lifecycle
- Update all docs (README, architecture, connectors, demo-advanced, quickstart) for M1-M2
- Fix go vet warning in deployment.go (non-constant format string)

- 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
