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

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.

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.

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.

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%).

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

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.

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
checked off (121 pass, 5 skip, 194 manual remaining).

M25: After deploying a certificate, the agent probes the live TLS
endpoint and compares SHA-256 fingerprints to verify the correct cert
is being served. Best-effort — failures don't block deployments.
New endpoints: POST /jobs/{id}/verify, GET /jobs/{id}/verification.
Migration 000008 adds verification columns to jobs table.
M26: Traefik target connector (file provider, auto-reload) and Caddy
target connector (dual-mode: admin API hot-reload or file-based).
Both wired into agent dispatch.
Also: restructured README to highlight supported integrations (issuers,
targets, notifiers) earlier, moved API/CLI/MCP sections lower. Updated
all docs (features, connectors, architecture, testing guide, why-certctl)
and fixed integration tests for 18-param RegisterHandlers signature.

EAB credentials (KID + HMAC) were defined in the ACME connector config
but never wired into the acme.Account registration call. This fixes the
dead code and adds automatic EAB credential fetching for ZeroSSL — when
the directory URL is detected as ZeroSSL and no EAB credentials are
provided, certctl calls ZeroSSL's public API to get them automatically.
Changes:
- Wire EABKid/EABHmac into acme.Account.ExternalAccountBinding
- Add isZeroSSL() detection and fetchZeroSSLEAB() auto-fetch
- Add CERTCTL_ACME_EAB_KID/CERTCTL_ACME_EAB_HMAC env vars to main.go
- Add 13 ACME connector tests (config validation, EAB decode, ZeroSSL
auto-EAB with mock servers, URL detection)
- Update docs: README, architecture, connectors, demo-advanced,
testing-guide with EAB/auto-EAB documentation

Frontend: fetchJSON now returns empty object on 204 instead of failing
to parse empty body — fixes silent delete failures across all entities.
Added onError callbacks to owner/team delete mutations to surface errors.
Backend: owner and issuer delete handlers return 409 Conflict with
descriptive messages when FK constraints block deletion, instead of
generic 500.
Added 15 v2 dashboard screenshots, updated README screenshot section,
logo asset, page count references (18→full), and QA guide with FK
constraint test coverage.
