shankar0123 29b55bfd01 fix: resolve flaky TestGetJobStats_WithData timezone issue
CompletedAt was set to Now()-1h which falls on "yesterday" when CI
runs near midnight UTC, causing the date bucket lookup to miss.
Use Now() directly since the test only needs jobs completed "today".

shankar0123 743dca2fb3 fix: use real X.509 certs in EST handler tests
EST handler tests used fake PEM data (e.g., "MIIBmjCCAUCgAwIBAgIRATest")
which is invalid base64 (25 chars, not divisible by 4). Go's pem.Decode
fails silently, causing pemToDERChain to return "no certificates found"
and tests to get 500 instead of 200.

Added generateTestCertPEM() helper that creates a real self-signed ECDSA
P-256 certificate, used across all EST handler tests that need cert PEM.

shankar0123 92bba64772 fix: add GetCACertPEM to connector-layer mock for go vet
The EST milestone (M23) added GetCACertPEM to the issuer.Connector
interface but missed updating mockConnectorLayerIssuer in the adapter
test file. This caused go vet to fail in CI.

shankar0123 7d14635a72 feat: add EST server (RFC 7030) for device certificate enrollment (M23)
Implement Enrollment over Secure Transport protocol with 4 endpoints under
/.well-known/est/ — cacerts (CA chain distribution), simpleenroll (initial
enrollment), simplereenroll (certificate renewal), and csrattrs (CSR
attributes). PKCS#7 certs-only wire format with hand-rolled ASN.1, accepts
both PEM and base64-encoded DER CSRs, configurable issuer and profile
binding, full audit trail. 28 new tests (18 handler + 10 service).

Also includes:
- GetCACertPEM added to issuer connector interface (all 4 issuers updated)
- EST integration tests wired into e2e test suite (13 test cases)
- QA testing guide Part 26 (15 manual EST test cases)
- All docs updated: README, features, architecture, concepts, connectors,
  quickstart, demo-advanced (endpoint counts, MCP wording, agent IDs,
  issuer interface, resource lists, OpenSSL status)

shankar0123 0f4a1b268b fix: handle 204 No Content in fetchJSON, add FK-aware delete errors, v2 screenshots
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.

# certctl — Self-Hosted Certificate Lifecycle Platform # certctl — Self-Hosted Certificate Lifecycle Platform
TLS certificate lifespans are shrinking. The CA/Browser Forum passed [Ballot SC-081v3](https://cabforum.org/2025/04/11/ballot-sc081v3-introduce-schedule-of-reducing-validity-and-data-reuse-periods/) unanimously in April 2025, setting a phased reduction: **200 days** by March 2026, **100 days** by March 2027, and **47 days** by March 2029. Manual certificate management is no longer viable at any scale. 90+ API endpoints. 21 database tables. 900+ tests. Full GUI. Ships with Docker Compose.
certctl is a self-hosted platform for **end-to-end certificate lifecycle automation** — from issuance through renewal to deployment — with zero human intervention. Track every certificate in your organization, automatically renew them before they expire, and deploy them to your servers without touching a terminal. Private keys never leave your infrastructure. ```mermaid

TLS certificate lifespans are shrinking fast. The CA/Browser Forum passed [Ballot SC-081v3](https://cabforum.org/2025/04/11/ballot-sc081v3-introduce-schedule-of-reducing-validity-and-data-reuse-periods/) unanimously in April 2025, setting a phased reduction: **200 days** by March 2026, **100 days** by March 2027, and **47 days** by March 2029. Organizations managing dozens or hundreds of certificates can no longer rely on spreadsheets, calendar reminders, or manual renewal workflows. The math doesn't work — at 47-day lifespans, a team managing 100 certificates is processing 7+ renewals per week, every week, forever.
certctl is a self-hosted platform that automates the entire certificate lifecycle — from issuance through renewal to deployment — with zero human intervention. It works with any certificate authority, deploys to any server, and keeps private keys on your infrastructure where they belong.

## Why certctl Exists
Certificate lifecycle tooling today falls into two camps: expensive enterprise platforms (Venafi, Keyfactor, Sectigo) that cost six figures and take months to deploy, or single-purpose tools (cert-manager, certbot) that handle one slice of the problem. If you run a mixed infrastructure — some NGINX, some Apache, a few HAProxy nodes, maybe an F5 — and you need to manage certificates from multiple CAs, there's nothing self-hosted that covers the full lifecycle without vendor lock-in.
certctl fills that gap. It's **CA-agnostic** — the issuer connector interface means you can plug in any certificate authority: a self-signed local CA for dev, Let's Encrypt via ACME for public certs, Smallstep step-ca for your private PKI, your enterprise ADCS via sub-CA mode, or any custom CA through a shell script adapter. You're never locked to a single CA vendor, and you can run multiple issuers simultaneously for different certificate types.
It's also **target-agnostic**. Agents deploy certificates to NGINX, Apache, and HAProxy today, with the same pluggable connector model for any server that accepts cert files. The control plane never initiates outbound connections — agents poll for work, which means certctl works behind firewalls, across network zones, and in air-gapped environments.
## What It Does ## What It Does
certctl gives you a single pane of glass for every TLS certificate in your organization. The **web dashboard** shows your full certificate inventory — what's healthy, what's expiring, what's already expired, and who owns each one. The **REST API** (91 endpoints under `/api/v1/`) lets you automate everything. **Agents** deployed on your infrastructure generate private keys locally, discover existing certificates on disk, and submit CSRs — private keys never leave your servers. The **network scanner** discovers certificates on TLS endpoints across your infrastructure without requiring agents. The background scheduler watches expiration dates and triggers renewals automatically — when certificate lifespans drop to 47 days, certctl handles the constant rotation without human involvement. certctl gives you a single pane of glass for every TLS certificate in your organization. The **web dashboard** shows your full certificate inventory — what's healthy, what's expiring, what's already expired, and who owns each one. The **REST API** (95 endpoints under `/api/v1/` + `/.well-known/est/`) lets you automate everything. **Agents** deployed on your infrastructure generate private keys locally, discover existing certificates on disk, and submit CSRs — private keys never leave your servers. The **network scanner** discovers certificates on TLS endpoints across your infrastructure without requiring agents. The **EST server** (RFC 7030) enables device and WiFi certificate enrollment via industry-standard Enrollment over Secure Transport. The background scheduler watches expiration dates and triggers renewals automatically — when certificate lifespans drop to 47 days, certctl handles the constant rotation without human involvement.
**Core capabilities:**
- **Full lifecycle automation** — issuance, renewal, deployment, and revocation with zero human intervention. Configurable renewal policies trigger jobs automatically based on expiration thresholds.
- **CA-agnostic issuer connectors** — Local CA (self-signed + sub-CA for enterprise root chains), ACME v2 with HTTP-01 and DNS-01 challenges (Let's Encrypt, Sectigo, any ACME-compatible CA), Smallstep step-ca (native /sign API), and OpenSSL/Custom CA (delegate to any shell script). Pluggable interface — add your own CA in one file.
- **Agent-side key generation** — agents generate ECDSA P-256 keys locally, store them with 0600 permissions, and submit only the CSR. Private keys never touch the control plane. This is the default mode, not an opt-in feature.
- **Certificate discovery** — agents scan filesystems for existing PEM/DER certificates and report findings for triage. The network scanner probes TLS endpoints across CIDR ranges to find certificates you didn't know existed.
- **Revocation infrastructure** — RFC 5280 revocation with all standard reason codes, DER-encoded X.509 CRL per issuer, embedded OCSP responder, and short-lived certificate exemption (certs under 1 hour skip CRL/OCSP).
- **Policy engine** — 5 rule types with violation tracking and severity levels. Certificate profiles enforce allowed key types, maximum TTL, and crypto constraints at enrollment time.
- **Immutable audit trail** — every action recorded to an append-only log. Every API call recorded with method, path, actor, SHA-256 body hash, response status, and latency. No update or delete on audit records.
- **Operational dashboard** — Full React GUI with certificate inventory, bulk operations (multi-select renew/revoke/reassign), deployment timeline visualization, inline policy editing, agent fleet overview, expiration heatmaps, and real-time short-lived credential tracking.
- **Observability** — JSON and Prometheus metrics endpoints, 5 stats API endpoints for dashboards, structured slog logging with request ID propagation. Compatible with Prometheus, Grafana Agent, Datadog Agent, and Victoria Metrics.
- **Notifications** — threshold-based alerting with deduplication. Routes to email, webhooks, Slack, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and OpsGenie.
- **EST enrollment (RFC 7030)** — built-in Enrollment over Secure Transport server for device certificate enrollment. Supports WiFi/802.1X, MDM, and IoT use cases. PKCS#7 certs-only wire format, accepts PEM or base64-encoded DER CSRs, configurable issuer and profile binding.
- **AI and CLI access** — MCP server exposes all 78 API operations as tools for Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. CLI tool with 12 subcommands for terminal workflows and scripting.

### EST Server (RFC 7030)
The EST (Enrollment over Secure Transport) server provides an industry-standard enrollment interface for devices that need certificates without using the REST API. It runs under `/.well-known/est/` per RFC 7030 and supports four operations: CA certificate distribution (`/cacerts`), initial enrollment (`/simpleenroll`), re-enrollment (`/simplereenroll`), and CSR attributes (`/csrattrs`).
**Architecture:** EST is a handler-level protocol that delegates certificate issuance to an existing `IssuerConnector`. This means EST is not a new issuer — it's a new *interface* to the existing issuance infrastructure. The `ESTService` bridges the `ESTHandler` to whichever issuer connector is configured via `CERTCTL_EST_ISSUER_ID`.
```
Client (WiFi AP, MDM, IoT)
ESTHandler (handler layer)
│ CSR parsing, PKCS#7 response encoding
ESTService (service layer)
│ CSR validation, CN/SAN extraction, audit recording
IssuerConnector (connector layer via IssuerConnectorAdapter)
│ Certificate signing (Local CA, step-ca, etc.)
Signed certificate returned as PKCS#7 certs-only
```
**Wire format:** EST uses PKCS#7 (RFC 2315) certs-only degenerate SignedData for certificate responses and base64-encoded DER for CSR requests. The handler includes a hand-rolled ASN.1 PKCS#7 builder — no external PKCS#7 dependency. The CSR reader accepts both base64-encoded DER (standard EST wire format) and PEM-encoded PKCS#10 (convenience for debugging).
**Interface:** The `ESTHandler` defines an `ESTService` interface (dependency inversion, same pattern as all other handlers):
```go
type ESTService interface {
GetCACerts(ctx context.Context) (string, error)
SimpleEnroll(ctx context.Context, csrPEM string) (*domain.ESTEnrollResult, error)
SimpleReEnroll(ctx context.Context, csrPEM string) (*domain.ESTEnrollResult, error)
GetCSRAttrs(ctx context.Context) ([]byte, error)
}
```
**Issuer connector extension:** EST required adding `GetCACertPEM(ctx) (string, error)` to the issuer connector interface so the `/cacerts` endpoint can serve the CA chain. The Local CA connector returns its CA certificate PEM; ACME, step-ca, and OpenSSL connectors return errors (they don't expose a static CA chain — their chains are per-issuance).
**Audit:** Every EST enrollment is recorded in the audit trail with `protocol: "EST"`, the CN, SANs, issuer ID, serial number, and optional profile ID.

### EST Protocol (Enrollment over Secure Transport)
EST (RFC 7030) is a standard protocol for devices to request certificates from a CA. While ACME was designed for web servers proving domain ownership, EST was designed for devices that need certificates without domain validation — think WiFi access points, corporate laptops connecting to 802.1X networks, IoT devices, and mobile devices managed by MDM platforms.
The workflow is straightforward: a device generates a key pair and a Certificate Signing Request (CSR), sends the CSR to the EST server, and gets back a signed certificate. The EST server also distributes its CA certificate chain so devices can build a complete trust path.
certctl includes a built-in EST server at `/.well-known/est/` with four operations: distributing the CA certificate chain (`/cacerts`), enrolling new devices (`/simpleenroll`), renewing existing certificates (`/simplereenroll`), and advertising CSR requirements (`/csrattrs`). EST enrollment uses the same issuer connectors as the REST API — so a certificate issued via EST and a certificate issued via the dashboard go through the same CA, appear in the same inventory, and follow the same policies.
### Private Key ### Private Key
Every certificate has a corresponding private key. The certificate is public — anyone can see it. The private key is secret — it's what allows your server to decrypt traffic. If someone gets your private key, they can impersonate your server. Every certificate has a corresponding private key. The certificate is public — anyone can see it.

### EST Enrollment (Device Certificates)
certctl's EST server enables device certificate enrollment for use cases that don't fit the traditional "ops team requests a cert via API" model. When a RADIUS server is configured to use certctl for 802.1X WiFi authentication, or an MDM platform enrolls corporate devices, they use the EST protocol at `/.well-known/est/`. The EST server validates the CSR, issues a certificate via the configured issuer connector, and returns it in PKCS#7 format — the standard wire format that every EST client understands. Each enrollment is recorded in the audit trail with the protocol, common name, SANs, issuer, and serial number.
Enable it with `CERTCTL_EST_ENABLED=true`. Optionally bind enrollments to a specific issuer (`CERTCTL_EST_ISSUER_ID`) or certificate profile (`CERTCTL_EST_PROFILE_ID`) to constrain what EST clients can request.
### Certificate Discovery ### Certificate Discovery
Certificate discovery is the process of automatically finding existing certificates in your infrastructure — certificates you didn't issue through certctl, possibly issued by other CAs or tools. This is essential for building a complete inventory before you can manage everything.

- **Local CA**: Returns the CA certificate PEM (self-signed or sub-CA cert). This is the primary EST issuer.

# certctl Demo Guide
A 5-10 minute guided walkthrough of certctl's dashboard and API. Perfect for stakeholder presentations and team demos.
New to certificates? Read the [Concepts Guide](concepts.md) first. Want a hands-on demo where you issue certificates yourself? See the [Advanced Demo](demo-advanced.md).
## Quick Start
```bash
git clone https://github.com/shankar0123/certctl.git
cd certctl
docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d --build
```
Wait ~30 seconds for PostgreSQL to initialize and the server to start, then open:
**http://localhost:8443**
You'll see the dashboard pre-loaded with 15 demo certificates across multiple teams, environments, and statuses — including expiring, expired, active, failed, wildcard, and in-progress renewals.
## What You'll See
### Dashboard Overview
The main dashboard shows at a glance:
- **Total certificates** managed across your infrastructure
- **Expiring soon** — certificates within 30 days of expiration (yellow/red)
- **Expired** — certificates past their expiration date
- **Active** — healthy certificates with time remaining
- **Renewal success rate** — percentage of automated renewals that succeeded
Below the stats, interactive charts provide deeper visibility: an **expiration heatmap** (90-day weekly buckets), **renewal success rate trends** (30-day line chart), **certificate status distribution** (donut chart), and **issuance rate** (30-day bar chart).
### Certificates View
Click "Certificates" in the sidebar to see the full inventory:
- Search by name or domain
- Filter by status (Active, Expiring, Expired, Failed) or environment (Production, Staging)
- Sort by any column
- Click any row to see full details: metadata, version history, deployment targets, and audit trail
### Demo Scenarios to Walk Through
**1. "We're about to have an outage"**
Filter by status → Expiring. You'll see `auth-production` (12 days), `cdn-production` (8 days), and `mail-production` (5 days). These are real alerts the platform would catch automatically.
**2. "A renewal failed"**
Look at `vpn-production` — status: Failed. Click it to see the audit trail showing the ACME challenge failure after 3 retry attempts. The system sent a webhook notification to the ops channel.
**3. "Who owns this cert?"**
Click any certificate to see the owner, team, environment, and tags. Every cert has clear accountability.
**4. "What happened to the legacy app?"**
Filter by status → Expired. `legacy-app` expired 3 days ago, `old-api-v1` expired 15 days ago. Both have policy violations flagged.
**5. "Show me the agent fleet"**
Click "Agents" in the sidebar. Four agents are online, one (`iis-prod-agent`) went offline 3 hours ago — you'd want to investigate that.
**6. "What policies are enforced?"**
Click "Policies" to see the active rules: required owner metadata, allowed environments, max certificate lifetime, minimum renewal window. Check the violations list to see which certs are non-compliant.
**7. "Can I revoke a compromised cert?"**
Click any active certificate, then click the "Revoke" button. A modal appears with RFC 5280 reason codes (Key Compromise, Superseded, Cessation of Operation, etc.). After revocation, the cert shows a revocation banner with the reason and timestamp.
**8. "Show me short-lived credentials"**
Click "Short-Lived" in the sidebar. This view shows certificates with TTL under 1 hour — live countdown timers, auto-refresh every 10 seconds, and profile-based filtering. These are for service-to-service auth where rapid expiry replaces revocation.
**9. "What about bulk operations?"**
On the Certificates page, select multiple certificates using the checkboxes. A bulk action bar appears with options to trigger renewal, revoke (with reason codes), or reassign ownership — all with progress tracking.
**10. "How do I see the deployment history?"**
Click any certificate, then scroll to the deployment timeline. A visual 4-step timeline shows the lifecycle: Requested → Issued → Deploying → Active. Previous versions show a rollback button.
**11. "What about certificates already running in production?"**
Enable discovery on agents by setting `CERTCTL_DISCOVERY_DIRS` to directories containing certificates (e.g., `/etc/nginx/certs`). Agents scan on startup and every 6 hours, report findings to the control plane. For network-based discovery without agents, enable `CERTCTL_NETWORK_SCAN_ENABLED=true` and configure scan targets via the API — the server probes TLS endpoints on configured CIDR ranges and ports. Click "Discovered Certificates" to see what agents and network scans found — claim unmanaged certs to bring them under certctl's management, or dismiss them.

## CLI Tool
certctl ships with a command-line tool (`certctl-cli`) for terminal users:
```bash
# Build the CLI
cd cmd/cli && go build -o certctl-cli .
# Set credentials
export CERTCTL_SERVER_URL="http://localhost:8443"
export CERTCTL_API_KEY="test-key-123"
# List certificates (JSON or table format)

./certctl-cli list-jobs
# Bulk import certificates from PEM files
./certctl-cli import /path/to/certs.pem
# Check health and metrics
./certctl-cli health
./certctl-cli metrics
```
## MCP Server for AI Integration
certctl exposes its 78 API endpoints as tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling integration with Claude, Cursor, and other AI assistants:
```bash
# Build and run the MCP server
cd cmd/mcp-server && go build -o mcp-server .
export CERTCTL_SERVER_URL="http://localhost:8443"
export CERTCTL_API_KEY="test-key-123"
./mcp-server
```
The MCP server:
- Exposes all 78 API endpoints as MCP tools with typed schemas
- Handles binary responses (DER CRL, OCSP responses)
- Uses stdio transport for Claude/Cursor/OpenClaw integration
- Zero external dependencies — pure Go with official MCP SDK
You can then ask Claude questions like:
- "What certificates are expiring in the next 30 days?"
- "Revoke the payments certificate due to key compromise"
- "Show me the audit trail for the last 10 actions"
- "List all certificates with PCI compliance tags"
## Dashboard Demo Mode
The dashboard includes a **Demo Mode** that works without any backend. Build and serve the frontend with Vite:
```bash
cd web
npm install
npm run dev
# Dashboard available at http://localhost:5173
```
When the API is unreachable, the dashboard automatically loads realistic mock data and shows a subtle "Demo Mode" badge. This is perfect for screenshots, presentations, or quick demos without any infrastructure.
## Teardown
```bash
docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml down -v
```
The `-v` flag removes the PostgreSQL data volume so you get a clean slate next time.
## Presenting to Stakeholders
If you're demoing to a team or customer, here's a suggested flow:
1. **Start with the dashboard** — "This is your certificate inventory at a glance, with real-time charts showing expiration trends and renewal health"
2. **Show the expiring certs** — "These three would have caused outages without this platform"
3. **Click into auth-production** — "Here's the full lifecycle: who owns it, where it's deployed, deployment timeline, when it was last renewed"
4. **Show revocation** — "If a key is compromised, one click revokes the cert with an RFC 5280 reason code. CRL and OCSP are served automatically"
5. **Show the failed VPN cert** — "The system tried 3 times, then alerted the team via Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, or OpsGenie"
6. **Show agents and fleet overview** — "Agents run on your infrastructure, handle key generation locally (ECDSA P-256). Fleet view shows OS, architecture, and version distribution"
7. **Show profiles** — "Certificate profiles enforce crypto constraints — key types, max TTL, compliance requirements"
8. **Show policies** — "Guardrails prevent teams from going outside approved scope"
9. **Show bulk operations** — "Select multiple certs, trigger renewal or revoke in bulk with progress tracking"
10. **Show certificate discovery** — "We discover certificates two ways: agents scan local filesystems, and the server actively probes TLS endpoints on your network. We deduplicate by fingerprint, show you what we found, and let you claim them or dismiss them"
11. **Show the immutable audit trail** — "Every action in the system is recorded: who did it, what they did, when, what changed. Export to CSV/JSON for compliance"
12. **Show advanced query features** — "Sort by any field, filter by date range, paginate efficiently with cursor-based pagination, select just the fields you need"
13. **Show the CLI and MCP server** — "Terminal users get `certctl-cli` with 10 subcommands. AI assistants get MCP integration with 78 tools. Everything is API-first"
The whole walkthrough takes 5-10 minutes.
## Next Steps
- **[Advanced Demo](demo-advanced.md)** — Go hands-on: create a team, issue a certificate via API, trigger renewal, and watch it appear in the dashboard
- **[Concepts Guide](concepts.md)** — Understand TLS certificates, CAs, and private keys from scratch

### EST Server (RFC 7030, M23)
**Enrollment over Secure Transport** — industry-standard protocol for device certificate enrollment. Enables WiFi/802.1X, MDM, IoT, and BYOD use cases where devices need certificates without direct API access.
**Endpoints** (under `/.well-known/est/` per RFC 7030):
| Endpoint | Method | Description | Wire Format |
|----------|--------|-------------|-------------|
| `/cacerts` | GET | CA certificate chain distribution | Base64 PKCS#7 certs-only (application/pkcs7-mime) |
| `/simpleenroll` | POST | Initial certificate enrollment | Request: PEM or base64-DER PKCS#10; Response: PKCS#7 |
| `/simplereenroll` | POST | Certificate re-enrollment (renewal) | Same as simpleenroll |
| `/csrattrs` | GET | CSR attributes the server requires | ASN.1 DER (application/csrattrs) |
**Architecture:**
- **ESTService** bridges handler to existing `IssuerConnector` — no new issuance logic, reuses existing CA connectors
- **CSR input handling** — accepts both base64-encoded DER (EST wire standard) and PEM-encoded PKCS#10 (convenience)
- **PKCS#7 output** — hand-rolled ASN.1 degenerate SignedData builder (no external PKCS#7 dependency)
- **CSR validation** — signature verification, Common Name extraction, SAN extraction (DNS, IP, email, URI)
- **Configurable issuer binding**`CERTCTL_EST_ISSUER_ID` selects which issuer connector processes enrollment
- **Optional profile binding**`CERTCTL_EST_PROFILE_ID` constrains enrollments to a specific certificate profile
- **Audit trail** — all EST enrollments recorded with protocol=EST, CN, SANs, issuer ID, serial, profile ID
**Configuration:**
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `CERTCTL_EST_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable EST enrollment endpoints |
| `CERTCTL_EST_ISSUER_ID` | `iss-local` | Issuer connector for EST enrollments |
| `CERTCTL_EST_PROFILE_ID` | — | Optional profile ID to constrain enrollments |
**Note:** EST endpoints currently use the same middleware stack as the REST API (API key auth). TLS client certificate authentication for EST is planned for V3.

# Quick Start Guide # Quick Start Guide
Get certctl running locally and managing certificates in under 5 minutes. With TLS certificate lifespans dropping to 47 days by 2029, automated lifecycle management isn't optional — it's infrastructure. This guide gets you hands-on with certctl's automation loop: tracking, renewing, and deploying certificates without manual intervention. Certificate lifespans are dropping to **47 days by 2029**. At that cadence, a team managing 100 certificates is processing 7+ renewals per week — every week, forever. Manual processes break. certctl automates the entire lifecycle: issuance, renewal, deployment, revocation, and audit — with zero human intervention.
This guide gets you running in 5 minutes and walks you through everything certctl does.

The dashboard comes pre-loaded with 15 demo certificates across multiple teams, environments, and statuses expiring certs, expired certs, active certs, failed renewals. A realistic snapshot of what certificate management looks like in a real organization.
Explore the sidebar: Certificates, Agents, Policies, Jobs, Audit Trail, Notifications. Everything you see in the dashboard is backed by the REST API. ### What you're looking at
The main dashboard shows total certificates, how many are expiring soon, how many have expired, the renewal success rate, and four charts: an **expiration heatmap** (90-day weekly buckets), **renewal success rate trends** (30-day line chart), **certificate status distribution** (donut chart), and **issuance rate** (30-day bar chart).
Explore the sidebar: Certificates, Agents, Policies, Jobs, Audit Trail, Notifications, Profiles, Teams, Owners, Agent Groups, Fleet Overview, Short-Lived Credentials, Discovery.
### Scenarios to walk through
**"We're about to have an outage"** — Filter certificates by status → Expiring. You'll see `auth-production` (12 days), `cdn-production` (8 days), and `mail-production` (5 days). At 47-day lifespans, this is every other week. certctl catches these automatically and triggers renewal before they expire.
**"A renewal failed"** — Look at `vpn-production` — status: Failed. Click it to see the audit trail showing the ACME challenge failure after 3 retry attempts. The system sent a webhook notification to the ops channel. No one had to notice manually.
**"Who owns this cert?"** — Click any certificate. Owner, team, environment, tags. Clear accountability. Notifications route to the owner's email automatically.
**"Can I revoke a compromised cert?"** — Click any active certificate, then "Revoke." A modal with RFC 5280 reason codes (Key Compromise, Superseded, Cessation of Operation). After revocation, CRL and OCSP are served automatically — clients stop trusting the cert immediately.
**"What about certificates already in production?"** — Click "Discovered Certificates." Agents scan local filesystems for existing certs. The server probes TLS endpoints on configured CIDR ranges. Both feed into a triage workflow: claim unmanaged certs to bring them under automation, or dismiss them.
**"Show me the agent fleet"** — Click "Agents." Four agents online, one offline. Click "Fleet Overview" for OS/architecture grouping, version distribution, and per-platform listing. Agents generate ECDSA P-256 keys locally — private keys never leave your infrastructure.
**"What about bulk operations?"** — On the Certificates page, select multiple certificates with checkboxes. A bulk action bar appears: trigger renewal, revoke with reason codes, or reassign ownership — all with progress tracking. At 47-day lifespans with hundreds of certs, bulk operations aren't optional.
**"Short-lived credentials?"** — Click "Short-Lived" in the sidebar. Live countdown timers for certificates with TTL under 1 hour. Auto-refresh every 10 seconds. These are for service-to-service auth where rapid expiry replaces revocation.

## Understanding the Demo Data
The demo comes pre-loaded with realistic data so you can explore certctl's features immediately:
| Resource | Count | Examples |
|----------|-------|---------|
| Teams | 5 | Platform, Security, Payments, Frontend, Data |
| Owners | 5 | Alice, Bob, Carol, Dave, Eve |
| Issuers | 4 | Local Dev CA, Let's Encrypt Staging, step-ca Internal, DigiCert (disabled) |
| Agents | 5 | nginx-prod, nginx-staging, f5-prod, iis-prod, data-agent |
| Targets | 5 | NGINX (prod/staging/data), F5 LB, IIS |
| Certificates | 15 | Various statuses: Active, Expiring, Expired, Failed, Wildcard |
| Policies | 4 | Required owner, allowed environments, max lifetime, min renewal window |
| Profiles | 3 | Default TLS, Short-Lived, High-Security |

Certificates have varied statuses so you can see what each state looks like in the dashboard: healthy certs with 45+ days remaining, certs about to expire (5-12 days), certs that already expired, and a failed renewal.
## Advanced API Features
### Sorting and filtering
```bash
# Sort certificates by expiration date (ascending)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?sort=notAfter" | jq .
# Sort descending (prefix with -)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?sort=-createdAt" | jq .
# Time-range filters (RFC3339 format)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?expires_before=2026-05-01T00:00:00Z" | jq .
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?created_after=2026-03-01T00:00:00Z" | jq .
```
Supported sort fields: `notAfter`, `expiresAt`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `commonName`, `name`, `status`, `environment`.
### Sparse field selection
Request only the fields you need to reduce response size:
```bash
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?fields=id,common_name,status,expires_at" | jq .
```
### Cursor-based pagination
For large datasets, cursor pagination is more efficient than page-based:
```bash
# First page
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?page_size=5" | jq '{next_cursor: .next_cursor, count: (.data | length)}'
# Next page (use the next_cursor from the previous response)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates?cursor=<next_cursor_value>&page_size=5" | jq .
```
### Stats and metrics
```bash
# Dashboard summary
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/stats/summary | jq .
# Certificates by status
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/stats/certificates-by-status | jq .
# Expiration timeline (next 90 days)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/stats/expiration-timeline?days=90" | jq .
# Job trends (last 30 days)
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/stats/job-trends?days=30" | jq .
# System metrics (JSON)
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/metrics | jq .
# System metrics (Prometheus format — for scraping by Prometheus, Grafana Agent, Datadog)
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/metrics/prometheus
```
### Certificate profiles
```bash
# List all profiles
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/profiles | jq .
# Get a specific profile
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/profiles/prof-default | jq .
```
### Certificate deployments
```bash
# View deployment targets for a certificate
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/mc-api-prod/deployments | jq .
```
### Interactive approval workflow ### Interactive approval workflow

## Tear Down ## Certificate Discovery
```bash Find certificates already running in your infrastructure — ones you didn't issue through certctl.
docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml down -v
```
The `-v` flag removes the PostgreSQL data volume so you get a clean slate next time. ### Filesystem discovery (agent-based)
### Certificate Discovery
Agents can scan your infrastructure for existing certificates you're not yet managing:
```bash ```bash
# Configure agent to scan directories # Configure agent to scan directories
export CERTCTL_DISCOVERY_DIRS="/etc/nginx/certs,/etc/ssl/certs,/var/lib/certs" export CERTCTL_DISCOVERY_DIRS="/etc/nginx/certs,/etc/ssl/certs,/var/lib/certs"
# Agent scans on startup + every 6 hours
# Agent scans on startup + every 6 hours, reports findings to control plane
``` ```
Query discovered certificates: ### Network discovery (agentless)
```bash ```bash
# List all discovered certs from a specific agent # Enable network scanning
curl -s "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/discovered-certificates?agent_id=agent-nginx-prod" | jq .
# Get discovery summary (counts by status)
curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/discovery-summary | jq .

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"managed_certificate_id": "mc-api-prod"}' | jq .
```
### Network Certificate Discovery
The server can also discover certificates by scanning TLS endpoints directly — no agent required:
```bash
# Enable network scanning (set in environment or docker-compose)
export CERTCTL_NETWORK_SCAN_ENABLED=true export CERTCTL_NETWORK_SCAN_ENABLED=true
# Create a scan target (e.g., scan your internal network on port 443) # Create a scan target

| Profiles | 3 | Default TLS, Short-Lived, High-Security |
| Agent Groups | 5 | Linux agents, ARM agents, Production subnet, etc. |
## Dashboard Demo Mode
The dashboard works without a backend for screenshots and presentations:
```bash
cd web && npm install && npm run dev
# Dashboard at http://localhost:5173
```
When the API is unreachable, the dashboard loads realistic mock data with a "Demo Mode" badge.
## Presenting to Stakeholders
A suggested 5-minute flow:
1. **Dashboard** — "Certificate inventory at a glance. Real-time charts show expiration trends and renewal health."
2. **Expiring certs** — "These three would have caused outages. At 47-day lifespans, this happens every other week."
3. **Certificate detail** — "Full lifecycle: who owns it, where it's deployed, deployment timeline, version history with rollback."
4. **Revocation** — "One click revokes with an RFC 5280 reason code. CRL and OCSP served automatically."
5. **Failed renewal** — "System tried 3 times, then alerted the team via Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, or OpsGenie."
6. **Agent fleet** — "Agents handle key generation locally (ECDSA P-256). Private keys never leave your infrastructure."
7. **Discovery** — "Agents scan filesystems, server probes TLS endpoints. We find what you're not managing yet."
8. **Bulk operations** — "Select multiple certs, renew or revoke in bulk. At 47-day lifespans with hundreds of certs, this is essential."
9. **Audit trail** — "Every action recorded. Export to CSV/JSON for compliance."
10. **CLI + MCP** — "Terminal users get `certctl-cli`. AI assistants get MCP integration. Everything is API-first."
## Tear Down
```bash
docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml down -v
```
The `-v` flag removes the PostgreSQL data volume for a clean slate.

### 11.4 Foreign Key Constraint Behavior
**What this validates:** Delete operations correctly fail with 409 when referenced entities still exist.
**Why it matters:** Owners and issuers use `ON DELETE RESTRICT` — you can't delete them while certificates reference them. Teams use `ON DELETE CASCADE`, so team deletes succeed and cascade. If the server returns a silent 500 instead of 409, the GUI swallows the error and the user thinks nothing happened.
**Test 11.4.1 — Delete owner with assigned certificates (expect 409)**
```bash
# Try to delete Alice Chen (o-alice) — she owns certificates in the demo data
curl -s -w "\nHTTP %{http_code}\n" -X DELETE -H "$AUTH" "$SERVER/api/v1/owners/o-alice" | jq .
```
**Expected:** HTTP 409 with message "Cannot delete owner: certificates are still assigned to this owner".
**PASS if** 409 Conflict. **FAIL** if 204 (data integrity violation) or 500 (unhelpful error).
---
**Test 11.4.2 — Delete issuer with assigned certificates (expect 409)**
```bash
# Try to delete the Local Dev CA (iss-local) — certificates reference it
curl -s -w "\nHTTP %{http_code}\n" -X DELETE -H "$AUTH" "$SERVER/api/v1/issuers/iss-local" | jq .
```
**Expected:** HTTP 409 with message "Cannot delete issuer: certificates are still using this issuer".
**PASS if** 409 Conflict. **FAIL** if 204 or 500.
---
**Test 11.4.3 — Delete team cascades successfully**
```bash
# Create a test team, then delete it — teams use ON DELETE CASCADE
curl -s -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" -d '{"id": "t-fk-test", "name": "FK Test Team"}' $SERVER/api/v1/teams > /dev/null
curl -s -w "\nHTTP %{http_code}\n" -X DELETE -H "$AUTH" "$SERVER/api/v1/teams/t-fk-test"
```
**Expected:** HTTP 204 (cascade allows deletion).
**PASS if** 204. **FAIL** if 409 or 500.

**What:** Verifies that deleting owners/issuers with assigned certificates returns 409 Conflict with a descriptive message.
**Why:** This was a real bug — the backend returned 500 (generic "Failed to delete"), `fetchJSON` threw on the error, and TanStack Query's `onError` wasn't wired up. The user clicked OK on the confirm dialog and nothing visibly happened. Fixed by: (1) backend returns 409 with descriptive message for FK constraint violations, (2) `fetchJSON` handles 204 No Content for successful deletes, (3) frontend mutation `onError` surfaces the error.
**Expected:** Both return HTTP 409 with descriptive conflict messages.

**Test 26.13 — EST enrollment creates audit event**
After a successful simpleenroll request (Test 26.3), query the audit trail:
```bash
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
"http://localhost:8443/api/v1/audit?page=1&per_page=10" | \
jq '.data[] | select(.action == "est_simple_enroll")'
```
**Expected:** At least one audit event with `action: "est_simple_enroll"`, `protocol: "EST"` in details, and the enrolled CN in the details.
**PASS if** audit event found with correct action and details.
---
**Test 26.14 — EST disabled returns 404**
With `CERTCTL_EST_ENABLED=false` (default), EST endpoints should not be registered:
```bash
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" http://localhost:8443/.well-known/est/cacerts
```
**Expected:** HTTP 404 Not Found (endpoints not registered when EST is disabled).
**PASS if** status = 404.
---
**Test 26.15 — EST with profile binding**
With `CERTCTL_EST_PROFILE_ID=profile-wifi-client`, verify that audit events include the profile_id in their details:
```bash
# After enrollment with profile binding, check audit
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
"http://localhost:8443/api/v1/audit?page=1&per_page=5" | \
jq '.data[0].details.profile_id'
```
**Expected:** Profile ID appears in audit event details when configured.
**PASS if** `profile_id` present in audit details.
