 ## 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 Traefik and Caddy support coming next — all using 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.

+## Supported Integrations
+
+### Certificate Issuers
+| Issuer | Status | Type |
+|--------|--------|------|
+| Local CA (self-signed + sub-CA) | Implemented | `GenericCA` |
+| ACME v2 (Let's Encrypt, Sectigo) | Implemented (HTTP-01 + DNS-01 + DNS-PERSIST-01) | `ACME` |
+| ACME EAB (ZeroSSL, Google Trust) | Implemented (auto-fetch EAB from ZeroSSL) | `ACME` |
+| step-ca | Implemented | `StepCA` |
+| OpenSSL / Custom CA | Implemented | `OpenSSL` |
+| Vault PKI | Future | — |
+| DigiCert | Future | — |
+
+**Note:** ADCS integration is handled via the Local CA's sub-CA mode — certctl operates as a subordinate CA with its signing certificate issued by ADCS. Any CA with a shell-accessible signing interface can be integrated today via the OpenSSL/Custom CA connector.
+
+### Deployment Targets
+| Target | Status | Type |
+|--------|--------|------|
+| NGINX | Implemented | `NGINX` |
+| Apache httpd | Implemented | `Apache` |

-## Supported Integrations
-
-### Certificate Issuers
-| Issuer | Status | Type |
-|--------|--------|------|
-| Local CA (self-signed + sub-CA) | Implemented | `GenericCA` |
-| ACME v2 (Let's Encrypt, Sectigo) | Implemented (HTTP-01 + DNS-01 + DNS-PERSIST-01) | `ACME` |
-| step-ca | Implemented | `StepCA` |
-| OpenSSL / Custom CA | Implemented | `OpenSSL` |
-| Vault PKI | Future | — |
-| DigiCert | Future | — |
-
-**Note:** ADCS integration is handled via the Local CA's sub-CA mode — certctl operates as a subordinate CA with its signing certificate issued by ADCS. Any CA with a shell-accessible signing interface can be integrated today via the OpenSSL/Custom CA connector.
-
-### Deployment Targets
-| Target | Status | Type |
-|--------|--------|------|
-| NGINX | Implemented | `NGINX` |
-| Apache httpd | Implemented | `Apache` |
-| HAProxy | Implemented | `HAProxy` |
-| Traefik | Planned (v2.1.x) | `Traefik` |
-| Caddy | Planned (v2.1.x) | `Caddy` |
-| F5 BIG-IP | Interface only | `F5` |
-| Microsoft IIS | Interface only | `IIS` |
-
-### Notifiers
-| Notifier | Status | Type |
-|----------|--------|------|
-| Email (SMTP) | Implemented | `Email` |
-| Webhooks | Implemented | `Webhook` |
-| Slack | Implemented | `Slack` |
-| Microsoft Teams | Implemented | `Teams` |
-| PagerDuty | Implemented | `PagerDuty` |
-| OpsGenie | Implemented | `OpsGenie` |
+Docker Compose overrides for the demo stack are in `deploy/docker-compose.yml`.

+- RFC 1123 domain name validation, base64url ACME token validation
+- SSRF protection in network scanner (loopback, link-local, multicast, broadcast ranges filtered)

+### Concurrency Safety
+- Scheduler loops protected by `sync/atomic.Bool` idempotency guards — duplicate ticks are skipped
+- Graceful shutdown waits up to 30 seconds for in-flight work before database close

 ### Audit Trail
 - Immutable append-only log in PostgreSQL (`audit_events` table)
 - Every lifecycle action attributed to an actor with timestamp and resource reference
 - No update or delete operations on audit records
 - Every API call recorded to audit trail with method, path, actor, SHA-256 body hash, response status, and latency

 ### API Audit Log
 
-In addition to application-level audit events, certctl records every HTTP API call via middleware. The audit middleware captures method, path, actor (extracted from auth context), SHA-256 request body hash (truncated to 16 characters), response status code, and request latency. Health and readiness probes are excluded to avoid noise.
+In addition to application-level audit events, certctl records every HTTP API call via middleware. The audit middleware captures method, URL path (excluding query parameters — see security note below), actor (extracted from auth context), SHA-256 request body hash (truncated to 16 characters), response status code, and request latency. Health and readiness probes are excluded to avoid noise.
+
+**Security: Query Parameter Exclusion** — The audit middleware intentionally records `r.URL.Path` only (not `r.URL.String()` or `r.RequestURI`). Query strings may contain cursor tokens, API keys passed as params, or other sensitive filter values. Since the audit trail is append-only with no deletion capability, any sensitive data recorded would persist permanently.
 
 Audit recording is async (via goroutine) so it never blocks the HTTP response. If audit persistence fails, the error is logged immediately — the API call still succeeds. The middleware sits after the auth middleware in the stack so the actor identity is available from context.
 
+### Input Validation and SSRF Protection
+
+All shell-facing inputs (connector scripts, domain names, ACME tokens) are validated through `internal/validation/command.go` before reaching shell execution. `ValidateShellCommand()` denies all shell metacharacters. `ValidateDomainName()` enforces RFC 1123. `ValidateACMEToken()` restricts to base64url characters. The network scanner filters reserved IP ranges (loopback, link-local including cloud metadata 169.254.169.254, multicast, broadcast) to prevent SSRF, while preserving RFC 1918 private ranges for legitimate internal scanning.
+
+### Request Body Size Limits
+
+All incoming HTTP request bodies are capped by `http.MaxBytesReader` middleware (default 1MB, configurable via `CERTCTL_MAX_BODY_SIZE`). Requests exceeding the limit receive a 413 Request Entity Too Large response. The middleware is positioned before authentication in the chain so oversized payloads are rejected early, before any auth processing or database work occurs. Requests without bodies (GET, HEAD, nil body) skip the limit check.
+
+### CORS
+
+CORS uses a **deny-by-default** posture: when `CERTCTL_CORS_ORIGINS` is empty, no CORS headers are set and only same-origin requests can read responses. Operators must explicitly configure allowed origins. This prevents accidental exposure of the API to cross-origin requests in production.
+
+### Middleware Chain Order
+
+The HTTP middleware stack processes requests in the following order (see `cmd/server/main.go`):
+
+1. **RequestID** - assigns unique request ID for correlation
+2. **Logging** - structured slog middleware with request ID propagation
+3. **Recovery** - panic recovery (catches panics in downstream middleware/handlers)
+4. **BodyLimit** - request body size cap via `http.MaxBytesReader`
+5. **RateLimiter** - token bucket rate limiting (optional, when enabled)
+6. **CORS** - cross-origin request handling (deny-by-default)
+7. **Auth** - API key or JWT validation
+8. **AuditLog** - records every API call to the audit trail (requires auth context for actor)
+
+### Concurrency Safety
+
+The background scheduler uses `sync/atomic.Bool` idempotency guards on all 6 loops — if a tick fires while the previous iteration is still running, it skips. A `sync.WaitGroup` tracks all in-flight goroutines. `WaitForCompletion(timeout)` blocks during shutdown until all work finishes or the timeout expires, preventing state corruption from mid-flight database operations during process exit.
+
 ### Logging
 
 All logging throughout the service layer uses Go's `log/slog` package for structured, queryable logs. This replaces ad-hoc `fmt.Printf` statements with consistent key-value logging that includes request context, operation names, and error details. Agents also implement exponential backoff on network failures to gracefully handle temporary connectivity issues with the control plane.

 **Service layer unit tests** (`internal/service/*_test.go`) — ~238 test functions across 15 files with mock repositories. These test all business logic in isolation: certificate CRUD with validation, certificate revocation (success, already-revoked, archived, invalid reason, all RFC 5280 reason codes, issuer notification, notification service integration, OCSP/CRL generation), agent lifecycle (registration, heartbeat, CSR submission with both keygen modes), job state machine (creation, processing, cancellation, retry logic), policy evaluation (all 5 rule types, violation creation), renewal and issuance flow (server-side and agent-side keygen paths), notification deduplication (threshold tag matching, channel routing), team/owner/agent group CRUD with pagination and audit recording, issuer service CRUD with connection testing, and the issuer connector adapter (type translation between connector and service layers including revocation). Mock repositories are simple structs with function fields, avoiding heavy mocking frameworks — this keeps tests readable and avoids coupling to mock library APIs.

 - **Expiration Threshold Alerting** — Certificate renewal policies define alert thresholds (days before expiry): default `[30, 14, 7, 0]`. When a certificate approaches a threshold, a notification is enqueued. Deduplication prevents duplicate alerts for the same cert at the same threshold. Auto status transition: cert moves to `Expiring` status at 30 days, `Expired` at 0 days.
 - **Certificate Status Auto-Transitions** — When a cert is issued, it's `Active`. As expiry approaches, status auto-transitions to `Expiring` (at 30d threshold). At expiry, status becomes `Expired`. Revoked certs move to `Revoked`. These transitions are recorded in the audit trail.

+### Built-in: Traefik
+
+The Traefik connector uses Traefik's file provider — it writes certificate and key files to a watched directory, and Traefik automatically picks up the changes without any explicit reload command. This is the simplest deployment model: write the files, and Traefik does the rest.
+
+Configuration:
+```json
+{
+  "cert_dir": "/etc/traefik/certs",
+  "cert_file": "site.crt",
+  "key_file": "site.key"
+}
+```
+
+The `cert_dir` is the directory Traefik is configured to watch via its file provider (e.g., `providers.file.directory` in Traefik's static config). The connector writes `cert_file` and `key_file` into this directory with appropriate permissions. Traefik's file watcher detects the change and reloads the TLS configuration automatically.

+### Built-in: Caddy
+
+The Caddy connector supports two deployment modes — choose based on your Caddy setup:
+
+**API mode (recommended):** Posts the certificate directly to Caddy's admin API (`POST /load` or certificate-specific endpoints) for zero-downtime hot reload. Requires Caddy's admin API to be enabled and accessible from the agent.
+
+**File mode (fallback):** Writes cert and key files to disk, relying on Caddy's built-in file watcher or a manual reload. Use this when the admin API isn't available or when Caddy is configured to read certificates from disk.
+
+Configuration:
+```json
+{
+  "mode": "api",
+  "admin_api": "http://localhost:2019",
+  "cert_dir": "/etc/caddy/certs",
+  "cert_file": "site.crt",
+  "key_file": "site.key"
+}
+```
+
+When `mode` is `"api"`, the connector posts the certificate to the admin API endpoint. When `mode` is `"file"`, it writes files to `cert_dir` (same pattern as Traefik). The `admin_api` field is ignored in file mode.

 ### F5 BIG-IP (Interface Only)
 
 The F5 BIG-IP target connector interface is defined with the iControl REST flow mapped out, but the actual API calls are not yet implemented. F5 appliances can't run agents directly, so this connector uses the **proxy agent pattern**: a designated agent in the same network zone picks up F5 deployment jobs and calls the iControl REST API. The server assigns the work; the proxy agent executes it.

+## Certificate Export
+
+Operators need to export certificates for use in third-party systems or for compliance audits. certctl provides two export formats: PEM (cert + chain, JSON or file download) and PKCS#12 (cert + chain in a passwordless bundle for compatibility with systems like Java keystores and Windows certificate stores).
+
+**Important:** Private keys are never exported — they remain on agents where they were generated. This is a core security property. Exports only bundle the public certificate material (cert + chain).
+
+```bash
+# Export as PEM (returns JSON with base64-encoded data + chain)
+curl -H "$AUTH" "$SERVER/api/v1/certificates/mc-api-prod/export/pem"
+# {"certificate_pem":"-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n...", "chain_pem":"-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n..."}

 ## Certificate Profiles
 
 ### Profile Model
-Named enrollment profiles defining certificate issuance constraints. Profiles prevent drift — without them, different teams might issue certs with inconsistent key sizes, TTLs, or key algorithms. A profile says "all certs in this category must use ECDSA P-256, max 90-day TTL, serverAuth EKU only."

+
+Profiles also support **Extended Key Usage (EKU)** constraints, enabling S/MIME and device certificates. Common EKUs:
+- `serverAuth` — TLS server certificates (HTTPS, mail servers)
+- `clientAuth` — TLS client certificates (mutual TLS, device auth)
+- `emailProtection` — S/MIME signing and encryption

+```
+
+### Required tests (~20 functions):

+8. `TestDeploymentService_ProcessDeploymentJob_CertNotFound` — certRepo.GetErr set, verify job marked Failed
+9. `TestDeploymentService_ProcessDeploymentJob_NoTargetID` — job.TargetID is nil, verify job marked Failed with "target_id not found"
+10. `TestDeploymentService_ProcessDeploymentJob_TargetNotFound` — targetRepo.GetErr set, verify job marked Failed
+11. `TestDeploymentService_ProcessDeploymentJob_AgentNotFound` — agentRepo.GetErr set, verify job marked Failed

+
+## P0-2: `internal/service/target_test.go` (NEW FILE)
+
+**File to test:** `internal/service/target.go`
+
+### Setup:
+```go
+func newTestTargetService() (*TargetService, *mockTargetRepo, *mockAuditRepo) {
+    targetRepo := &mockTargetRepo{Targets: make(map[string]*domain.DeploymentTarget)}
+    auditRepo := newMockAuditRepository()
+    auditSvc := NewAuditService(auditRepo)
+    return NewTargetService(targetRepo, auditSvc), targetRepo, auditRepo
+}
+```
+
+### Required tests (~15 functions):
+
+**Context-aware methods (List, Get, Create, Update, Delete):**
+1. `TestTargetService_List_Success` — 3 targets, page=1 perPage=2, expect 2 returned with total=3
+2. `TestTargetService_List_DefaultPagination` — page=0 perPage=0, expect defaults to 1/50

+17. `TestTargetService_UpdateTarget_Success`
+18. `TestTargetService_DeleteTarget_Success`
+
+---
+
+## P0-3: Scheduler Loop Execution Tests
+
+**File to modify:** `internal/scheduler/scheduler_test.go`
+
+The existing tests cover idempotency and graceful shutdown. Add tests that verify each loop actually calls its service method.
+
+### Required tests (~8 functions):
+
+1. `TestSchedulerRenewalLoopCallsService` — start scheduler with 50ms interval, wait 150ms, verify renewalMock.callCount >= 1
+2. `TestSchedulerJobProcessorLoopCallsService` — same pattern for jobMock
+3. `TestSchedulerAgentHealthCheckLoopCallsService` — same for agentMock
+4. `TestSchedulerNotificationLoopCallsService` — same for notificationMock
+5. `TestSchedulerNetworkScanLoopCallsService` — same for networkMock
+6. `TestSchedulerShortLivedExpiryLoopCallsService` — verify ExpireShortLivedCertificates is called (need to add callCount tracking to mockRenewalService.ExpireShortLivedCertificates)
+7. `TestSchedulerLoopErrorRecovery` — set shouldError=true on renewalMock, verify scheduler continues (doesn't crash), subsequent calls still happen
+8. `TestSchedulerLoopContextCancellation` — cancel context mid-execution, verify no panics, WaitForCompletion succeeds
+
+**Note:** You'll need to add `expireCallCount` and `expireCallTimes` fields to `mockRenewalService` and track calls in `ExpireShortLivedCertificates`.
+
+---
+
+## P0-4: Agent Binary Tests
+
+**File to create:** `cmd/agent/agent_test.go` (NEW FILE, `package main`)
+
+This is the hardest gap. The agent binary's methods (`executeCSRJob`, `executeDeploymentJob`, heartbeat loop, discovery loop) need a mock HTTP server.
+
+### Setup:
+```go
+func newTestServer(t *testing.T) *httptest.Server {
+    mux := http.NewServeMux()
+    // Register mock endpoints
+    mux.HandleFunc("/api/v1/agents/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+        // Handle heartbeat (POST /agents/{id}/heartbeat), work (GET /agents/{id}/work),
+        // CSR submission (POST /agents/{id}/csr), job status (POST /agents/{id}/jobs/{job_id}/status),
+        // discoveries (POST /agents/{id}/discoveries)
+    })
+    mux.HandleFunc("/health", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+        json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(map[string]string{"status": "healthy"})
+    })
+    return httptest.NewServer(mux)
+}
+```
+
+### Required tests (~10 functions):
+
+1. `TestAgentHeartbeat_Success` — mock server returns 200, verify request has correct headers
+2. `TestAgentHeartbeat_ServerDown` — connection refused, verify error handling (no panic)
+3. `TestAgentCSRGeneration` — verify ECDSA P-256 key generation, CSR contains correct CN and SANs
+4. `TestAgentCSRGeneration_EmailSAN` — verify email SANs route to EmailAddresses (not DNSNames)
+5. `TestAgentWorkPolling_NoWork` — server returns empty work list
+6. `TestAgentWorkPolling_DeploymentJob` — server returns deployment work item
+7. `TestAgentWorkPolling_CSRJob` — server returns AwaitingCSR work item
+8. `TestAgentKeyStorage` — verify keys written to temp dir with 0600 permissions
+9. `TestAgentDiscoveryScan` — scan a temp directory with a test PEM file, verify correct extraction
+10. `TestAgentDiscoveryScan_EmptyDir` — scan empty directory, verify empty results (no error)
+
+**Important:** The agent code uses global variables and `main()` package patterns. You may need to extract testable functions or use `TestMain` for setup. If the agent's methods are on a struct, mock the HTTP client. If they're standalone functions, use httptest.
+
+---
+
+## P1-1: `CompleteAgentCSRRenewal` Tests
+
+**File to modify:** `internal/service/renewal_test.go`
+
+### Required tests (~8 functions):
+
+The method signature is:
+```go
+func (s *RenewalService) CompleteAgentCSRRenewal(ctx context.Context, job *domain.Job, cert *domain.ManagedCertificate, csrPEM string) error
+```
+
+You need a `RenewalService` with: certRepo, jobRepo, auditService, notificationSvc, issuerConnector (mock), profileRepo (mock), keygenMode="agent".
+
+1. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_Success` — valid job (AwaitingCSR), valid cert, valid CSR PEM. Verify: issuer.IssueCertificate called, cert version created, job status -> Completed, deployment jobs created
+2. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_IssuerError` — issuerConnector.Err set, verify job status -> Failed
+3. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_InvalidCSR` — garbage CSR PEM, verify error
+4. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_WithEKUs` — cert has certificate_profile_id, profile has allowed_ekus=["emailProtection"], verify EKUs forwarded to issuer
+5. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_NoProfile` — cert has no profile ID, verify default EKUs (nil)
+6. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_CreateVersionError` — certRepo.CreateVersionErr set
+7. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_AuditRecorded` — verify audit event with correct details
+8. `TestCompleteAgentCSRRenewal_DeploymentJobsCreated` — after successful signing, verify deployment jobs exist in jobRepo
+
+**Note:** You'll need a `mockProfileRepo` if one doesn't exist in testutil_test.go. Check if `internal/repository/interfaces.go` has `ProfileRepository` and create a mock.
+
+---
+
+## P1-2: `ExpireShortLivedCertificates` Tests
+
+**File to modify:** `internal/service/renewal_test.go`
+
+```go
+func (s *RenewalService) ExpireShortLivedCertificates(ctx context.Context) error
+```
+
+1. `TestExpireShortLivedCertificates_NoShortLived` — no active certs with short-lived profiles, no changes
+2. `TestExpireShortLivedCertificates_ExpiresActiveCert` — cert with profile TTL < 1h, cert active, cert's NotAfter is in the past. Verify status -> Expired
+3. `TestExpireShortLivedCertificates_SkipsNonExpired` — cert with short-lived profile but NotAfter is in the future, no change
+4. `TestExpireShortLivedCertificates_SkipsNonShortLived` — cert with normal profile (TTL > 1h), even if expired. Verify not touched by this method
+5. `TestExpireShortLivedCertificates_RepoError` — certRepo.ListErr set
+
+**Note:** This method needs access to profiles to determine TTL. Read the actual implementation to understand how it queries — it may iterate all active certs and check their profile's max_ttl.

+
+## P2-1: Frontend Error Handling Tests
+
+**File to modify:** `web/src/api/client.test.ts`
+
+Add error scenario tests for the 65+ API functions that lack them. Group by resource:
+
+### Pattern:
+```typescript
+it('listCertificates handles 500 error', async () => {
+  fetchMock.mockResponseOnce('', { status: 500 });
+  await expect(listCertificates()).rejects.toThrow();
+});
+
+it('getCertificate handles 404 error', async () => {
+  fetchMock.mockResponseOnce('', { status: 404 });
+  await expect(getCertificate('nonexistent')).rejects.toThrow();
+});
+```
+
+### Required (~40 tests):
+
+Add at minimum a 500 error test and a 404 test (where applicable) for each resource group:
+- Certificates (list 500, get 404, renew 404, revoke 404, export 404)

+
+---
+
+## P2-2: Context Cancellation Tests
+
+**File to create:** `internal/service/context_test.go` (NEW FILE)
+
+Test that long-running service methods respect context cancellation.
+
+### Pattern:
+```go
+func TestDeploymentService_CreateDeploymentJobs_ContextCancelled(t *testing.T) {
+    ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
+    cancel() // Cancel immediately
+
+    svc, _, targetRepo, _, _, _ := newTestDeploymentService()
+    targetRepo.AddTarget(&domain.DeploymentTarget{ID: "t1", Name: "test"})
+
+    _, err := svc.CreateDeploymentJobs(ctx, "cert-1")
+    // Depending on implementation, may get context.Canceled or proceed normally
+    // The key assertion: no panic, no goroutine leak
+    t.Logf("result with cancelled context: %v", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Required (~8 tests):
+
+1. `TestDeploymentService_ProcessDeploymentJob_ContextTimeout` — context with 1ms timeout
+2. `TestNetworkScanService_ScanAllTargets_ContextCancelled` — cancel mid-scan
+3. `TestDiscoveryService_ProcessDiscoveryReport_ContextCancelled`
+4. `TestESTService_SimpleEnroll_ContextCancelled`
+5. `TestExportService_ExportPKCS12_ContextCancelled`
+6. `TestRenewalService_ProcessRenewalJob_ContextTimeout`
+7. `TestCertificateService_RevokeCertificateWithActor_ContextCancelled`
+8. `TestVerificationService_RecordVerificationResult_ContextCancelled`
+
+---
+
+## P2-3: Concurrent Operation Tests
+
+**File to create:** `internal/service/concurrent_test.go` (NEW FILE)
+
+Use `sync.WaitGroup` and goroutines to test concurrent access patterns.
+
+### Required (~6 tests):
+
+```go
+func TestConcurrentRevocation(t *testing.T) {
+    // Setup service with a certificate
+    // Launch 5 goroutines all trying to revoke the same cert simultaneously
+    // Verify: exactly 1 succeeds (or all succeed idempotently), no panics, no data corruption
+    var wg sync.WaitGroup
+    errors := make([]error, 5)
+    for i := 0; i < 5; i++ {
+        wg.Add(1)
+        go func(idx int) {
+            defer wg.Done()
+            errors[idx] = svc.RevokeCertificateWithActor(ctx, certID, "keyCompromise", "test-actor")
+        }(i)
+    }
+    wg.Wait()
+    // Assert at most 1 "already revoked" error
+}
+```
+
+1. `TestConcurrentRevocation` — 5 goroutines revoke same cert
+2. `TestConcurrentDeploymentJobCreation` — 3 goroutines create deployment jobs for same cert
+3. `TestConcurrentDiscoveryReports` — 3 goroutines submit discovery reports simultaneously
+4. `TestConcurrentCertificateList` — 10 goroutines list certificates simultaneously (no race)
+5. `TestConcurrentJobStatusUpdate` — 5 goroutines update same job status
+6. `TestConcurrentTargetCRUD` — create, update, delete targets concurrently
+
+---
+
+## Execution Order
+
+Run these in order, verifying each step:
+
+```bash
+# P0 — Critical
+go test ./internal/service/ -run TestDeploymentService -v -count=1

+
+## Final CI Gate

+
+## What NOT To Do
+
+- Do NOT modify any production code (only test files)
+- Do NOT add new dependencies to go.mod
+- Do NOT create mocks that duplicate existing ones in testutil_test.go — reuse them
+- Do NOT use `testing.Short()` skips — all these tests should run in CI
+- Do NOT use `time.Sleep` for synchronization — use channels, WaitGroups, or atomic counters
+- Do NOT write tests that are flaky due to timing — if testing scheduler loops, use generous timeouts and verify "at least 1 call" rather than exact counts

+Post-deployment verification is the final confidence check: after a certificate is deployed to a target, the agent probes the live TLS endpoint and confirms the served certificate matches what was deployed. This catches silent failures where a reload command exits 0 but the certificate doesn't take effect.
+
+### 27.1: Submit Verification Result (Success)
+
+```bash
+# Create a deployment job first (or use an existing completed deployment job ID)
+JOB_ID="j-deploy-001"
+
+# Submit a successful verification result
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/jobs/$JOB_ID/verify -d '{
+  "target_id": "tgt-nginx-prod",
+  "expected_fingerprint": "sha256:abc123def456",
+  "actual_fingerprint": "sha256:abc123def456",
+  "verified": true
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK with `{"job_id": "j-deploy-001", "verified": true, "verified_at": "..."}`.
+**PASS if** response contains `verified: true` and a valid `verified_at` timestamp.
+
+### 27.2: Submit Verification Result (Failure — Fingerprint Mismatch)
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/jobs/$JOB_ID/verify -d '{
+  "target_id": "tgt-nginx-prod",
+  "expected_fingerprint": "sha256:abc123def456",
+  "actual_fingerprint": "sha256:zzz999different",
+  "verified": false,
+  "error": "fingerprint mismatch"
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK with `verified: false`.
+**PASS if** verification failure recorded without error status code (verification is best-effort).
+
+### 27.3: Get Verification Status
+
+```bash
+curl -H "$AUTH" $SERVER/api/v1/jobs/$JOB_ID/verification | jq .
+```
+
+**Expected:** Returns the verification result previously submitted.
+**PASS if** response includes `job_id`, `verified`, `verified_at`, and `actual_fingerprint`.
+
+### 27.4: Missing Required Fields
+
+```bash
+# Missing target_id
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/jobs/$JOB_ID/verify -d '{
+  "expected_fingerprint": "sha256:abc",
+  "actual_fingerprint": "sha256:abc",
+  "verified": true
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 400 Bad Request with message about missing `target_id`.
+**PASS if** status code is 400.
+
+### 27.5: Audit Trail
+
+```bash
+curl -H "$AUTH" "$SERVER/api/v1/audit?action=job_verification_success" | jq '.data[0]'
+```
+
+**Expected:** Audit event recorded with verification details (job_id, target_id, fingerprints).
+**PASS if** audit event exists with expected action and details.
+
+### 27.6: Database Schema Verification
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec postgres psql -U certctl -d certctl -c \
+  "SELECT column_name, data_type FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name='jobs' AND column_name LIKE 'verification%';"
+```
+
+**Expected:** Four columns: `verification_status`, `verified_at`, `verification_fingerprint`, `verification_error`.
+**PASS if** all four columns exist with correct types.
+

+
+## Part 28: Traefik & Caddy Target Connectors
+
+### Why test this?
+
+Traefik and Caddy are increasingly popular reverse proxies. Testing ensures cert deployment works with their specific file-watching and admin API patterns.
+
+### 28.1: Traefik File Provider Deployment
+
+**Setup:** Configure a target with type `Traefik` pointing to a test directory.
+
+```bash
+# Create a Traefik target
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/targets -d '{
+  "name": "Traefik Test",
+  "type": "Traefik",
+  "agent_id": "a-test-agent",
+  "config": {
+    "cert_dir": "/tmp/traefik-certs",
+    "cert_file": "test.crt",
+    "key_file": "test.key"
+  }
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created with target details.
+**PASS if** target created with type `Traefik` and config fields preserved.
+
+### 28.2: Caddy API Mode Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Create a Caddy target in API mode
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/targets -d '{
+  "name": "Caddy API Test",
+  "type": "Caddy",
+  "agent_id": "a-test-agent",
+  "config": {
+    "mode": "api",
+    "admin_api": "http://localhost:2019",
+    "cert_dir": "/etc/caddy/certs",
+    "cert_file": "test.crt",
+    "key_file": "test.key"
+  }
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created.
+**PASS if** target created with mode `api` and `admin_api` URL preserved.
+
+### 28.3: Caddy File Mode Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Create a Caddy target in file mode
+curl -X POST -H "$AUTH" -H "$CT" $SERVER/api/v1/targets -d '{
+  "name": "Caddy File Test",
+  "type": "Caddy",
+  "agent_id": "a-test-agent",
+  "config": {
+    "mode": "file",
+    "cert_dir": "/etc/caddy/certs",
+    "cert_file": "test.crt",
+    "key_file": "test.key"
+  }
+}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created.
+**PASS if** target created with mode `file`.
+
+### 28.4: Agent Connector Dispatch
+
+Verify the agent binary recognizes Traefik and Caddy target types from the work endpoint response. This requires a running agent with deployment jobs assigned to Traefik/Caddy targets.
+
+**Expected:** Agent logs show connector instantiation for the target type (e.g., "deploying to Traefik target" or "deploying to Caddy target").
+**PASS if** agent does not error with "unknown target type" for Traefik or Caddy.
+
+### 28.5: Connector Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/connector/target/traefik/... -v
+go test ./internal/connector/target/caddy/... -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All tests pass.
+**PASS if** exit code 0 for both test suites.
+
+---
+
+## Part 29: Certificate Export (PEM & PKCS#12)
+
+**What:** certctl lets operators export managed certificates in two formats — PEM (JSON or file download) and PKCS#12 (.p12 bundle). Private keys are **never** included in exports since they live exclusively on agents. This section verifies both export paths, the audit trail they produce, and the GUI integration.
+
+**Why:** Certificate export is a daily operational task — feeding certs into load balancers that lack agent support, importing into Java trust stores, or handing off to external teams. If export silently produces malformed output or fails to audit, operators lose trust in the platform.
+
+### 29.1: Export PEM (JSON Response)
+
+**What:** `GET /api/v1/certificates/{id}/export/pem` returns a JSON object with the leaf certificate PEM, the CA chain PEM, and the full concatenated PEM. This is the default response format when no `?download=true` query parameter is present.
+
+**Why:** The JSON format lets automation scripts programmatically extract the leaf cert separately from the chain — a common need for split-file deployments (Apache, custom TLS termination).
+
+```bash
+# Use an existing certificate ID from seed data
+CERT_ID="mc-api-prod"
+
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/export/pem" | jq .
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK with JSON body containing `cert_pem` (leaf), `chain_pem` (CA certs), and `full_pem` (concatenated).
+
+**PASS if:**
+- Response Content-Type is `application/json`
+- `cert_pem` contains exactly one `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----` block
+- `full_pem` starts with the same block as `cert_pem` (leaf is first in chain)
+- `chain_pem` is empty for self-signed CA or contains the issuing CA cert
+
+**FAIL if:** Response is non-JSON, fields are missing, or `full_pem` doesn't equal `cert_pem` + `chain_pem`.
+
+### 29.2: Export PEM (File Download)
+
+**What:** Adding `?download=true` to the PEM export endpoint returns the raw PEM file with `Content-Type: application/x-pem-file` and a `Content-Disposition: attachment` header, suitable for browser "Save As" workflows.
+
+**Why:** The GUI uses this mode when operators click the "Export PEM" button — the browser should trigger a file download, not show JSON in the tab.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -D - -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/export/pem?download=true" \
+  -o /tmp/exported.pem
+
+# Verify the downloaded file is valid PEM
+openssl x509 -in /tmp/exported.pem -noout -subject
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK, headers include `Content-Type: application/x-pem-file` and `Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="certificate.pem"`.
+
+**PASS if:**
+- The response headers match the expected Content-Type and Content-Disposition
+- The saved file parses successfully with `openssl x509`
+- The subject CN matches the certificate's common name
+
+**FAIL if:** Headers are wrong (JSON Content-Type), file is empty, or `openssl` rejects the PEM.
+
+### 29.3: Export PEM — Not Found
+
+**What:** Requesting export for a nonexistent certificate ID returns 404.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/mc-nonexistent/export/pem"
+```
+
+**Expected:** 404 Not Found with error message.
+**PASS if** status code is 404 and body contains "not found".
+
+### 29.4: Export PKCS#12
+
+**What:** `POST /api/v1/certificates/{id}/export/pkcs12` returns a binary PKCS#12 (.p12) file containing the certificate chain (no private key). An optional `password` field in the JSON body encrypts the bundle.
+
+**Why:** PKCS#12 is the standard format for importing certificates into Java keystores (`keytool`), Windows certificate stores, and many commercial load balancers. The cert-only bundle (no private key) is safe to share with teams that only need trust anchors.
+
+```bash
+# Export with a password
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"password": "export-test-2024"}' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/export/pkcs12" \
+  -o /tmp/exported.p12
+
+# Verify the PKCS#12 file (openssl should parse it)
+openssl pkcs12 -in /tmp/exported.p12 -nokeys -passin pass:export-test-2024 -info
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK, Content-Type `application/x-pkcs12`, Content-Disposition `attachment; filename="certificate.p12"`.
+
+**PASS if:**
+- Binary .p12 file is returned (non-empty)
+- `openssl pkcs12` successfully parses the file with the correct password
+- No private key is present in the output (cert-only trust store)
+
+**FAIL if:** Response is JSON instead of binary, file is empty, or `openssl` rejects the PKCS#12 format.
+
+### 29.5: Export PKCS#12 — Empty Password
+
+**What:** The password field is optional. Omitting it (or sending an empty body) should still produce a valid PKCS#12 bundle encrypted with an empty password.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -X POST \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/export/pkcs12" \
+  -o /tmp/exported-nopass.p12
+
+openssl pkcs12 -in /tmp/exported-nopass.p12 -nokeys -passin pass: -info
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK with valid PKCS#12.
+**PASS if** `openssl pkcs12` parses with an empty password.
+
+### 29.6: Export Audit Trail
+
+**What:** Both PEM and PKCS#12 exports record audit events (`export_pem` and `export_pkcs12`) with the certificate's serial number.
+
+**Why:** Export operations are security-sensitive — knowing who exported what and when is critical for incident response and compliance (SOC 2 CC7, PCI-DSS Req 10).
+
+```bash
+# Export a cert (triggers audit event)
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/export/pem" > /dev/null
+
+# Check audit trail for the export event
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/audit?resource_type=certificate&action=export_pem" | jq '.items[-1]'
+```
+
+**Expected:** Audit event with action `export_pem`, resource_type `certificate`, resource_id matching the cert ID.
+**PASS if** the audit event exists with serial number in metadata.
+**FAIL if** no audit event is recorded for the export.
+
+### 29.7: Export Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/service/ -run TestExport -v
+go test ./internal/api/handler/ -run TestExport -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All export service tests (9 tests) and handler tests (11 tests) pass.
+**PASS if** exit code 0 for both.
+
+### 29.8: GUI Export Buttons
+
+**What:** The certificate detail page shows "Export PEM" and "Export PKCS#12" buttons. PEM triggers a file download. PKCS#12 opens a password modal, then triggers a binary download.
+
+**How to test (manual browser test):**
+1. Navigate to a certificate detail page (e.g., `/certificates/mc-api-prod`)
+2. Click "Export PEM" — browser should download `certificate.pem`
+3. Click "Export PKCS#12" — password modal appears
+4. Enter a password and confirm — browser should download `certificate.p12`
+
+**PASS if** both downloads complete with non-empty files.
+**FAIL if** buttons are missing, modal doesn't appear, or downloads fail.
+
+---
+
+## Part 30: S/MIME & EKU Support
+
+**What:** Certificate profiles can specify Extended Key Usage (EKU) constraints — `serverAuth`, `clientAuth`, `codeSigning`, `emailProtection`, `timeStamping`. The Local CA respects these EKUs during issuance, adapting the X.509 `KeyUsage` flags accordingly (TLS uses `DigitalSignature|KeyEncipherment`; S/MIME uses `DigitalSignature|ContentCommitment`). A demo `prof-smime` profile ships in seed data.
+
+**Why:** S/MIME certificates protect email with digital signatures and encryption. They require the `emailProtection` EKU and `ContentCommitment` (formerly NonRepudiation) key usage flag. If the platform treats all certs as TLS certs, S/MIME certs will be rejected by mail clients.
+
+### 30.1: S/MIME Profile Exists in Seed Data
+
+**What:** The demo seed creates 5 profiles including `prof-smime` with `emailProtection` EKU.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/profiles/prof-smime" | jq '{name, allowed_ekus}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK. Profile name is "S/MIME Email" and `allowed_ekus` contains `["emailProtection"]`.
+**PASS if** the profile exists and EKUs match.
+**FAIL if** 404 or EKUs are wrong/missing.
+
+### 30.2: All Five Profiles Present
+
+**What:** The seed data creates 5 profiles total. Previous versions of this guide referenced 4 — the `prof-smime` profile was added in M27.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/profiles" | jq '.total'
+```
+
+**Expected:** `total` is 5 (prof-standard-tls, prof-internal-mtls, prof-short-lived, prof-wildcard, prof-smime).
+**PASS if** count is 5.
+**FAIL if** count is 4 or fewer (missing prof-smime).
+
+### 30.3: EKU Strings in Profile API
+
+**What:** The profile API accepts and returns EKU names as human-readable strings rather than OID numbers. The supported values are: `serverAuth`, `clientAuth`, `codeSigning`, `emailProtection`, `timeStamping`.
+
+```bash
+# Create a profile with codeSigning EKU
+curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "prof-test-codesign",
+    "name": "Code Signing Test",
+    "description": "Test profile for code signing",
+    "allowed_key_algorithms": [{"algorithm": "ECDSA", "min_size": 256}],
+    "max_ttl_seconds": 7776000,
+    "allowed_ekus": ["codeSigning"]
+  }' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/profiles" | jq '{id, allowed_ekus}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created with `allowed_ekus: ["codeSigning"]`.
+**PASS if** the EKU round-trips correctly through create/get.
+
+### 30.4: Agent CSR SAN Splitting (Email vs DNS)
+
+**What:** When generating CSRs for S/MIME certificates, the agent splits SANs by type: values containing `@` are placed in `EmailAddresses` (not `DNSNames`). This prevents mail clients from rejecting the cert due to incorrect SAN encoding.
+
+**Why:** An email SAN like `alice@example.com` must appear in the X.509 `rfc822Name` SAN field, not the `dNSName` field. Incorrect encoding causes S/MIME validation failures.
+
+This is tested via unit tests:
+
+```bash
+go test ./cmd/agent/ -run TestSAN -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** Tests pass showing email-type SANs are routed to `EmailAddresses`.
+**PASS if** exit code 0.
+
+### 30.5: EKU Service-Layer Tests
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/service/ -run TestEKU -v
+go test ./internal/service/ -run TestCSRRenewal -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** Tests covering EKU resolution from profiles and issuance with non-default EKUs pass.
+**PASS if** exit code 0.
+
+---
+
+## Part 31: OCSP Responder & DER CRL
+
+**What:** certctl includes an embedded OCSP responder and a DER-encoded CRL generator, both operating per-issuer. These are the standard online (OCSP) and offline (CRL) methods for checking certificate revocation status. Short-lived certificates (profile TTL < 1 hour) are exempt from both — their natural expiry is sufficient revocation.
+
+**Why:** TLS clients need to verify that certificates haven't been revoked. Without OCSP/CRL, a compromised certificate remains trusted until it expires. The short-lived exemption avoids bloating the CRL with certs that expire before distribution.
+
+### 31.1: DER-Encoded CRL
+
+**What:** `GET /api/v1/crl/{issuer_id}` returns a DER-encoded X.509 CRL signed by the issuing CA. Content-Type is `application/pkix-crl`. The CRL has 24-hour validity.
+
+**Why:** This is the standard CRL format that browsers, TLS libraries, and LDAP directories consume. The existing JSON CRL at `GET /api/v1/crl` is certctl-specific; the DER CRL is interoperable.
+
+```bash
+# Request DER CRL for the local issuer
+curl -s -D - -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/crl/iss-local" \
+  -o /tmp/crl.der
+
+# Verify it's valid DER CRL with openssl
+openssl crl -in /tmp/crl.der -inform DER -noout -text
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK, Content-Type `application/pkix-crl`, Cache-Control `public, max-age=3600`.
+
+**PASS if:**
+- `openssl crl` parses the DER file successfully
+- Issuer field shows the Local CA's common name
+- Validity period is present (thisUpdate / nextUpdate)
+- If any certs have been revoked, they appear in the revocation list with serial + reason
+
+**FAIL if:** Response is JSON (wrong endpoint), `openssl` rejects the DER format, or headers are wrong.
+
+### 31.2: DER CRL — Nonexistent Issuer
+
+```bash
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/crl/iss-nonexistent"
+```
+
+**Expected:** 404 Not Found.
+**PASS if** status code is 404 and body contains "not found".
+
+### 31.3: OCSP Responder — Good Status
+
+**What:** `GET /api/v1/ocsp/{issuer_id}/{serial}` returns a signed OCSP response. For a non-revoked certificate, the status is "good".
+
+**Why:** OCSP is the real-time revocation check that TLS clients perform during the handshake. A "good" response tells the client the cert is still valid.
+
+```bash
+# First, get a certificate's serial number
+SERIAL=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/mc-api-prod" | jq -r '.latest_version.serial_number // empty')
+
+# If serial is available, query OCSP
+if [ -n "$SERIAL" ]; then
+  curl -s -D - -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+    "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/ocsp/iss-local/$SERIAL" \
+    -o /tmp/ocsp.der
+
+  # Parse OCSP response
+  openssl ocsp -respin /tmp/ocsp.der -text -noverify
+fi
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK, Content-Type `application/ocsp-response`. OCSP response shows `Cert Status: good`.
+
+**PASS if:**
+- OCSP response parses successfully
+- Certificate status is "good" for a non-revoked cert
+- Response is signed (producedAt timestamp present)
+
+**FAIL if:** Response is JSON, OCSP status is wrong, or `openssl` rejects the response.
+
+### 31.4: OCSP Responder — Revoked Status
+
+**What:** After revoking a certificate, the OCSP responder should return "revoked" with the revocation reason and timestamp.
+
+```bash
+# Revoke a certificate first (see Part 5 for revocation)
+curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"reason": "keyCompromise"}' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/$CERT_ID/revoke"
+
+# Then query OCSP
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/ocsp/iss-local/$SERIAL" \
+  -o /tmp/ocsp-revoked.der
+
+openssl ocsp -respin /tmp/ocsp-revoked.der -text -noverify
+```
+
+**Expected:** OCSP response shows `Cert Status: revoked`, revocation time, and reason code (1 = keyCompromise).
+**PASS if** status is "revoked" with correct reason.
+**FAIL if** status is still "good" after revocation.
+
+### 31.5: OCSP — Unknown Certificate
+
+**What:** Querying a serial number that doesn't exist in the inventory returns an "unknown" OCSP status (not an error — this is the correct OCSP behavior per RFC 6960).
+
+```bash
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/ocsp/iss-local/DEADBEEF" \
+  -o /tmp/ocsp-unknown.der
+
+openssl ocsp -respin /tmp/ocsp-unknown.der -text -noverify
+```
+
+**Expected:** OCSP response with `Cert Status: unknown`.
+**PASS if** status is "unknown" (not a 404 HTTP error).
+
+### 31.6: Short-Lived Certificate CRL Exemption
+
+**What:** Certificates issued under a profile with TTL < 1 hour are excluded from both CRL and OCSP responses. Their natural expiry is considered sufficient revocation.
+
+**Why:** Short-lived certs (used in mTLS, CI/CD pipelines) would bloat the CRL with entries that expire within minutes. The crypto community consensus (per Google's Certificate Transparency policy) is that short-lived certs don't need revocation infrastructure.
+
+To test: revoke a cert that was issued under the `prof-short-lived` profile, then check the DER CRL. The revoked short-lived cert should NOT appear.
+
+```bash
+# After revoking a short-lived cert (serial SHORT_SERIAL):
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/crl/iss-local" -o /tmp/crl.der
+
+openssl crl -in /tmp/crl.der -inform DER -text | grep -i "$SHORT_SERIAL"
+```
+
+**Expected:** The short-lived cert's serial does NOT appear in the CRL.
+**PASS if** short-lived cert is absent from CRL despite being revoked.
+
+### 31.7: OCSP / CRL Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/service/ -run "TestGenerateDERCRL|TestGetOCSPResponse" -v
+go test ./internal/api/handler/ -run "TestDERCRL|TestOCSP" -v
+go test ./internal/connector/issuer/local/ -run "TestGenerateCRL|TestSignOCSP" -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All tests pass (8 service tests, handler tests, connector tests).
+**PASS if** exit code 0 for all three test suites.
+
+---
+
+## Part 32: Request Body Size Limits
+
+**What:** The `NewBodyLimit` middleware wraps request bodies with `http.MaxBytesReader`, enforcing a configurable maximum payload size (default 1MB). Oversized requests receive a 413 Request Entity Too Large response. This protects against memory exhaustion and denial of service (CWE-400).
+
+**Why:** Without body limits, an attacker could send a multi-gigabyte POST to exhaust server memory. The 1MB default is generous for certificate API payloads (a typical CSR is ~1KB, a PKCS#12 export request is <100 bytes) while blocking abuse.
+
+### 32.1: Default 1MB Limit
+
+**What:** With default configuration (`CERTCTL_MAX_BODY_SIZE` unset), the server rejects request bodies larger than 1MB.
+
+```bash
+# Generate a payload slightly over 1MB
+dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1024 count=1025 2>/dev/null | base64 > /tmp/big-payload.txt
+
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -X POST \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d "{\"name\": \"$(cat /tmp/big-payload.txt)\"}" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates"
+```
+
+**Expected:** The server returns an error (likely 400 or 413) when the body exceeds 1MB.
+**PASS if** the request is rejected and does not cause server memory issues.
+**FAIL if** the server accepts the oversized payload or crashes.
+
+### 32.2: Normal-Sized Requests Work
+
+**What:** Standard API requests well under the limit work normally.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -X POST \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"id": "mc-test-bodylimit", "common_name": "bodylimit.test.local", "issuer_id": "iss-local"}' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates"
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created — normal payloads are unaffected by the body limit.
+**PASS if** status code is 201.
+
+### 32.3: Custom Body Size via Environment Variable
+
+**What:** Set `CERTCTL_MAX_BODY_SIZE` to a custom value (e.g., `2097152` for 2MB) and verify the new limit is respected.
+
+**How:** Restart the server with the env var set, then repeat test 32.1. A 1.1MB payload should now be accepted; a 2.1MB payload should be rejected.
+
+**PASS if** the configured limit is enforced instead of the 1MB default.
+
+### 32.4: Requests Without Bodies Are Unaffected
+
+**What:** GET requests and other methods without request bodies pass through the body limit middleware without interference.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates" | tail -1
+```
+
+**Expected:** 200 OK — body limit middleware only applies to requests with bodies.
+**PASS if** GET requests are unaffected.
+
+---
+
+## Part 33: Apache & HAProxy Target Connectors
+
+**What:** certctl ships two additional target connectors beyond NGINX: Apache httpd (separate cert/chain/key files, `apachectl configtest` + graceful reload) and HAProxy (combined PEM file with cert+chain+key, config validation, reload). Both run on the agent side and follow the same pattern as the NGINX connector.
+
+**Why:** Apache and HAProxy are the second and third most common reverse proxies in enterprise environments. Supporting them out of the box removes a common adoption blocker.
+
+### 33.1: Create Apache Target
+
+**What:** Create a deployment target of type `apache` with the required configuration fields.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "t-test-apache",
+    "name": "Test Apache Server",
+    "type": "apache",
+    "agent_id": "agent-demo-1",
+    "config": {
+      "cert_path": "/etc/apache2/ssl/cert.pem",
+      "key_path": "/etc/apache2/ssl/key.pem",
+      "chain_path": "/etc/apache2/ssl/chain.pem",
+      "reload_command": "apachectl graceful",
+      "validate_command": "apachectl configtest"
+    }
+  }' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/targets" | jq '{id, name, type}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created with type `apache`.
+
+**PASS if:**
+- Target is created successfully
+- Type is `apache`
+- Config fields are persisted (verify via GET)
+
+**FAIL if** type is rejected or config fields are missing in the response.
+
+### 33.2: Apache Config — Separate Files
+
+**What:** Apache uses three separate files (cert, chain, key) unlike NGINX's dual-file or HAProxy's combined PEM. Verify that `cert_path`, `chain_path`, and `key_path` are all required.
+
+```bash
+# Missing chain_path should fail validation
+curl -s -w "\n%{http_code}" -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "t-test-apache-bad",
+    "name": "Bad Apache",
+    "type": "apache",
+    "agent_id": "agent-demo-1",
+    "config": {
+      "cert_path": "/etc/apache2/ssl/cert.pem",
+      "reload_command": "apachectl graceful",
+      "validate_command": "apachectl configtest"
+    }
+  }' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/targets"
+```
+
+**Expected:** The target is created (config validation happens at deploy time on the agent), but when the agent attempts to deploy, it will fail if required fields are missing.
+**PASS if** the validation behavior matches the connector's `ValidateConfig` — `cert_path` and `chain_path` are both required.
+
+### 33.3: Create HAProxy Target
+
+**What:** Create a deployment target of type `haproxy`. HAProxy uses a single combined PEM file (cert + chain + key concatenated), not separate files.
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "t-test-haproxy",
+    "name": "Test HAProxy",
+    "type": "haproxy",
+    "agent_id": "agent-demo-1",
+    "config": {
+      "pem_path": "/etc/haproxy/certs/site.pem",
+      "reload_command": "systemctl reload haproxy",
+      "validate_command": "haproxy -c -f /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg"
+    }
+  }' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/targets" | jq '{id, name, type}'
+```
+
+**Expected:** 201 Created with type `haproxy`.
+**PASS if** target created with correct type and config persisted.
+
+### 33.4: HAProxy Combined PEM Requirement
+
+**What:** HAProxy's `pem_path` is the single file where cert+chain+key are concatenated. The `pem_path` field is required; `reload_command` is also required.
+
+**Why:** HAProxy's `bind ssl crt` directive expects one file per certificate. The combined PEM format eliminates the need for multiple `SSLCertificate*` directives.
+
+This is verified in the connector's `ValidateConfig`:
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/connector/target/haproxy/... -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** Tests validate that missing `pem_path` and missing `reload_command` both produce errors.
+**PASS if** all haproxy connector tests pass.
+
+### 33.5: Shell Command Injection Prevention
+
+**What:** Both Apache and HAProxy connectors validate `reload_command` and `validate_command` against the shell injection prevention logic in `internal/validation/command.go`. Commands containing shell metacharacters (`;`, `|`, `&`, `$()`, backticks) are rejected.
+
+**Why:** An attacker who controls target configuration could inject arbitrary commands if the reload/validate commands aren't sanitized. This was remediated in the security hardening pass (TICKET-001).
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/validation/ -run TestValidateShellCommand -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All 80+ adversarial test cases pass — commands with injection attempts are rejected, safe commands are accepted.
+**PASS if** exit code 0.
+
+### 33.6: Connector Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/connector/target/apache/... -v
+go test ./internal/connector/target/haproxy/... -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All Apache and HAProxy connector tests pass (config validation, deployment logic).
+**PASS if** exit code 0 for both.
+
+---
+
+## Part 34: Sub-CA Mode
+
+**What:** The Local CA issuer connector can operate in two modes: self-signed root (default) or sub-CA. In sub-CA mode, set `CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH` and `CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH` to point at a pre-signed CA certificate and its private key. The CA cert must have `IsCA=true` and `KeyUsageCertSign`. All issued certificates then chain to the upstream root (e.g., Active Directory Certificate Services). Supports RSA, ECDSA, and PKCS#8 key formats.
+
+**Why:** Enterprise environments already have a root CA (ADCS, Vault, etc.). Sub-CA mode lets certctl operate as a subordinate CA without replacing the existing trust hierarchy. Users' browsers and devices already trust the enterprise root, so certctl-issued certs are automatically trusted.
+
+### 34.1: Self-Signed Mode (Default)
+
+**What:** Without `CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH` / `CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH`, the Local CA generates its own self-signed root on startup. This is the default for development and demos.
+
+```bash
+# Verify the CA cert is self-signed (issuer == subject)
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/mc-api-prod/export/pem?download=true" \
+  -o /tmp/chain.pem
+
+# Extract the last cert in the chain (the CA cert)
+csplit -f /tmp/cert- -z /tmp/chain.pem '/-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----/' '{*}' 2>/dev/null
+LAST_CERT=$(ls /tmp/cert-* | tail -1)
+openssl x509 -in "$LAST_CERT" -noout -subject -issuer
+```
+
+**Expected:** For self-signed mode, the CA cert's Subject and Issuer are identical.
+**PASS if** Subject == Issuer (self-signed root).
+
+### 34.2: Sub-CA Mode — Configuration
+
+**What:** Setting `CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH` and `CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH` environment variables switches the Local CA to sub-CA mode. The server logs the mode at startup.
+
+**How to test:**
+1. Generate a test CA hierarchy (root CA + sub-CA):
+```bash
+# Generate root CA
+openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /tmp/root-key.pem -out /tmp/root-cert.pem \
+  -days 3650 -nodes -subj "/CN=Test Root CA" \
+  -addext "basicConstraints=critical,CA:TRUE" \
+  -addext "keyUsage=critical,keyCertSign,cRLSign"
+
+# Generate sub-CA key and CSR
+openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /tmp/subca-key.pem -out /tmp/subca-csr.pem \
+  -nodes -subj "/CN=CertCtl Sub-CA"
+
+# Sign sub-CA cert with root
+openssl x509 -req -in /tmp/subca-csr.pem -CA /tmp/root-cert.pem -CAkey /tmp/root-key.pem \
+  -CAcreateserial -out /tmp/subca-cert.pem -days 1825 \
+  -extfile <(echo -e "basicConstraints=critical,CA:TRUE\nkeyUsage=critical,keyCertSign,cRLSign")
+```
+
+2. Start the server with sub-CA config:
+```bash
+CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH=/tmp/subca-cert.pem \
+CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH=/tmp/subca-key.pem \
+./certctl-server
+```
+
+3. Check startup logs for sub-CA mode indication.
+
+**PASS if** the server starts successfully and logs indicate sub-CA mode with the loaded cert path.
+**FAIL if** the server fails to start or falls back to self-signed mode.
+
+### 34.3: Sub-CA Chain Construction
+
+**What:** In sub-CA mode, issued certificates should chain to the sub-CA, which chains to the root. The PEM chain in certificate versions should include the leaf, the sub-CA cert, and optionally the root.
+
+```bash
+# Issue a certificate (after starting in sub-CA mode)
+curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"id": "mc-subca-test", "common_name": "subca.test.local", "issuer_id": "iss-local"}' \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates"
+
+# Export and verify chain
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates/mc-subca-test/export/pem" | jq -r '.full_pem' > /tmp/subca-chain.pem
+
+openssl verify -CAfile /tmp/root-cert.pem -untrusted /tmp/subca-cert.pem /tmp/subca-chain.pem
+```
+
+**Expected:** Certificate chain validates against the root CA. The leaf cert's Issuer matches the sub-CA's Subject.
+**PASS if** `openssl verify` returns "OK".
+**FAIL if** chain is broken or leaf is signed by self-signed root instead of sub-CA.
+
+### 34.4: Sub-CA Validation — Non-CA Cert Rejected
+
+**What:** If `CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH` points to a certificate without `IsCA=true` or `KeyUsageCertSign`, the server should reject it at startup.
+
+```bash
+# Generate a non-CA cert (leaf cert, not a CA)
+openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /tmp/leaf-key.pem -out /tmp/leaf-cert.pem \
+  -days 365 -nodes -subj "/CN=Not A CA"
+
+# Try to start server with non-CA cert — should fail
+CERTCTL_CA_CERT_PATH=/tmp/leaf-cert.pem \
+CERTCTL_CA_KEY_PATH=/tmp/leaf-key.pem \
+./certctl-server
+```
+
+**Expected:** Server fails to start (or logs a fatal error) because the loaded cert is not a CA.
+**PASS if** server rejects the non-CA certificate.
+**FAIL if** server starts and silently uses the non-CA cert for signing.
+
+### 34.5: Sub-CA Key Format Support
+
+**What:** The sub-CA key can be RSA, ECDSA, or PKCS#8 encoded. All three formats should load successfully.
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/connector/issuer/local/ -run "TestSubCA" -v
+```
+
+**Expected:** All 7 sub-CA tests pass (RSA, ECDSA, config validation, invalid cert, non-CA cert, renewal, chain construction).
+**PASS if** exit code 0.
+
+### 34.6: CRL Signing in Sub-CA Mode
+
+**What:** In sub-CA mode, the DER CRL (Part 31.1) should be signed by the sub-CA key, not a self-signed root.
+
+```bash
+# After starting in sub-CA mode and revoking a cert:
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8443/api/v1/crl/iss-local" -o /tmp/subca-crl.der
+
+openssl crl -in /tmp/subca-crl.der -inform DER -noout -issuer
+```
+
+**Expected:** CRL issuer matches the sub-CA's subject (not the self-signed CA).
+**PASS if** issuer is the sub-CA distinguished name.
+

+
+### CI Pipeline
+
+Every push runs (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`):
+
+- `go vet ./...`
+- `golangci-lint` (11 linters including gosec, bodyclose, errcheck)
+- `govulncheck` (dependency CVE scanning)
+- `go test -race` (race detection across service, handler, middleware, scheduler, connector, domain, validation)
+- `go test -cover` with per-layer thresholds (service 55%, handler 60%, domain 40%, middleware 30%)
+- Frontend: `tsc --noEmit`, `vitest run`, `vite build`
+
+### What's Well-Tested
+
+**Service layer** — renewal flows (server + agent keygen modes), revocation (all 8 RFC 5280 reasons), CRL/OCSP generation, discovery (process report, claim, dismiss, summary), network scan (CIDR expansion, validation, CRUD), stats (5 aggregations), EST enrollment (GetCACerts, SimpleEnroll/ReEnroll, CSRAttrs), export (PEM split, PKCS#12 encoding), verification (record/get results), issuer adapter (issue, renew, revoke with EKU forwarding).
+
+**Handler layer** — all 12 resource handlers tested with success paths, 404/400/405/500 error paths, input validation (required fields, type checks, JSON parsing), query parameter parsing (pagination, filters, sort, cursor, sparse fields). CRUD endpoints, revocation, CRL, OCSP, EST, export, verification handlers all covered.
+
+**Connectors** — Local CA (self-signed, sub-CA with RSA/ECDSA, renewal, config validation), ACME DNS solver (present, cleanup, DNS-PERSIST-01), step-ca (issue, renew, revoke via mock HTTP), OpenSSL (config validation, script execution, timeout), Traefik (file write, directory validation), Caddy (API mode, file mode, config validation), all 4 notifiers (webhook payloads, HTTP errors, auth headers, config defaults).
+
+**Validation** — shell injection prevention with 80+ adversarial patterns (fuzz tests), domain validation, ACME token validation.
+
+**Frontend** — 107 Vitest tests: all API client functions (certificates, agents, jobs, policies, profiles, owners, teams, agent groups, discovery, network scans, stats, metrics, export, health), utility functions (date formatting, time-ago, expiry color), both happy path and some error scenarios.
+
+---
+
+## Test Gap Analysis
+
+### P0 — Critical Gaps (Production Risk)
+
+**1. No tests for `service/deployment.go`** — deployment orchestration (creating deployment jobs, target resolution, deployment execution) is completely untested. This is the core path that actually puts certificates onto servers.
+- Missing: `CreateDeploymentJobs`, `ProcessDeploymentJob`, target connector dispatch
+- Risk: silent deployment failures, wrong cert deployed to wrong target
+- Effort: 15-20 test functions, 1-2 days
+
+**2. Agent binary (`cmd/agent/main.go`) largely untested** — only `verify.go` has tests. The agent's registration, heartbeat loop, work polling, CSR generation, discovery scanning, and deployment execution have no automated tests.
+- Missing: heartbeat error handling, CSR generation edge cases, deployment with local keys, discovery scan error paths
+- Risk: agent fails silently in production, key material handling bugs
+- Effort: significant — needs mock control plane HTTP server, 3-5 days
+- Mitigation: the manual testing guide below covers these flows
+
+**3. `service/target.go` untested** — target CRUD operations (Create, List, Get, Update, Delete) have service-layer tests missing.
+- Risk: target configuration errors not caught
+- Effort: 8-10 test functions, 0.5 days
+
+**4. Scheduler loop execution untested** — `scheduler_test.go` only tests startup and graceful shutdown. The 6 actual loops (renewal check, job processing, health check, notifications, short-lived expiry, network scanning) are not tested for correct execution behavior.
+- Risk: scheduler silently stops processing without detection
+- Effort: complex — needs time manipulation and mock services, 2-3 days
+
+### P1 — High-Priority Gaps
+
+**5. `CompleteAgentCSRRenewal()` not tested** — this is the critical path where agent-submitted CSRs are signed by the issuer. EKU resolution from profiles, deployment job creation after signing, and CSR validation are all untested at the service layer.
+- Effort: 5-8 test functions, 1 day
+
+**6. `ExpireShortLivedCertificates()` not tested** — scheduler operation that marks short-lived certs as expired. No test coverage.
+- Effort: 3-4 test functions, 0.5 days
+
+**7. Domain models mostly untested** — only `revocation.go`, `discovery.go`, and `verification.go` have test files. Missing: `job.go` (state machine transitions), `certificate.go` (status validation), `agent_group.go` (MatchesAgent criteria), `notification.go`, `policy.go`.
+- Effort: 20-30 test functions across 5 files, 2-3 days
+
+**8. Handler gaps** — `UpdateAgentGroup`, `UpdateIssuer`, `GetNetworkScanTarget`, `UpdateNetworkScanTarget` are untested handler methods.
+- Effort: ~12 test functions, 0.5 days
+
+### P2 — Medium-Priority Gaps
+
+**9. Frontend: zero component/page render tests** — no React component tests exist. All 22 pages and 8 shared components are untested for rendering, user interaction, modal behavior, and form validation.
+- Risk: UI regressions go undetected
+- Effort: significant — needs React Testing Library setup, 3-5 days for core pages
+
+**10. Frontend: weak error handling tests** — only 13 of 78 API functions have error scenario tests. Missing: 404 errors, network timeouts, 429 rate limiting, malformed JSON responses.
+- Effort: 1-2 days
+
+**11. Context cancellation / timeout tests** — no service or handler tests verify correct behavior when contexts are cancelled or time out. Long-running operations (network scan, EST enrollment) should gracefully handle cancellation.
+- Effort: 1-2 days
+
+**12. Concurrent operation tests** — two simultaneous revocations of the same certificate, concurrent discovery reports from multiple agents, parallel deployment jobs. Race detector catches some of this but not logic bugs.
+- Effort: 1-2 days
+
+### Docker Compose Bug Found During Audit
+
+**`migrations/000008_verification.up.sql` is NOT mounted in `deploy/docker-compose.yml`**. The verification migration exists on disk but the Docker Compose file only mounts migrations 000001-000007. This means the demo environment is missing the `verification_status`, `verified_at`, `verification_fingerprint`, and `verification_error` columns on the jobs table.
+
+Fix: add to docker-compose.yml:
+```yaml
+- ../migrations/000008_verification.up.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/008_verification.sql
+```
+
+---
+
+## Manual Testing Guide

+
+### 11. EST Server (RFC 7030)
+
+EST requires `CERTCTL_EST_ENABLED=true` in the server environment. Add it to docker-compose and restart:
+
+```bash
+# Get CA certs (PKCS#7)
+curl -s http://localhost:8443/.well-known/est/cacerts
+
+# Get CSR attributes
+curl -s http://localhost:8443/.well-known/est/csrattrs
+
+# Simple enroll (requires a valid CSR in base64 DER or PEM format)
+# Generate a test CSR:
+openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout /tmp/test.key -subj "/CN=test.example.com" | \
+  base64 -w0 | \
+  curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8443/.well-known/est/simpleenroll \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/pkcs10" \
+    -d @-
+```
+
+### 12. CLI Tool
+
+```bash
+# Build CLI (requires Go)
+go build -o certctl-cli ./cmd/cli/
+
+# Configure
+export CERTCTL_SERVER_URL=http://localhost:8443
+
+# Test all subcommands
+./certctl-cli health
+./certctl-cli metrics
+./certctl-cli certs list
+./certctl-cli certs list --format json
+./certctl-cli certs get mc-api-prod
+./certctl-cli certs renew mc-api-prod
+./certctl-cli certs revoke mc-internal-staging --reason superseded
+./certctl-cli agents list
+./certctl-cli jobs list
+
+# Bulk import
+echo "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+... (paste a valid PEM cert) ...
+-----END CERTIFICATE-----" > /tmp/test-import.pem
+./certctl-cli import /tmp/test-import.pem
+```
+
+### 13. Auth Flow (requires restart with auth enabled)
+
+```bash
+# Restart with auth
+docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml down
+CERTCTL_AUTH_TYPE=api-key CERTCTL_AUTH_SECRET=test-secret-key \
+  docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d --build
+
+# API should reject without key
+curl -s http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates
+# 401 Unauthorized
+
+# API works with key
+curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer test-secret-key" http://localhost:8443/api/v1/certificates | jq '.total'
+
+# GUI should show login screen
+# Open http://localhost:8443 — enter "test-secret-key" — dashboard loads
+# Logout button in sidebar should clear auth and redirect to login
+```

+## Pre-Release Checklist
+
+### Automated (CI must pass)
+
+- [ ] `go vet ./...` — no issues
+- [ ] `golangci-lint run ./...` — no issues
+- [ ] `govulncheck ./...` — no known vulnerabilities
+- [ ] `go test -race` — no race conditions detected
+- [ ] Coverage thresholds met (service 55%+, handler 60%+, domain 40%+, middleware 30%+)
+- [ ] `npx tsc --noEmit` — no TypeScript errors
+- [ ] `npx vitest run` — all frontend tests pass (107+)
+- [ ] `npx vite build` — production build succeeds
+
+### Manual (v2.1 release gate)
+
+- [ ] Docker Compose starts cleanly from scratch (`down -v` then `up --build`)
+- [ ] All 16 sidebar navigation items load without console errors
+- [ ] Dashboard charts render with demo data
+- [ ] Certificate CRUD: list, detail, renew, deploy, revoke, archive all work
+- [ ] Bulk operations: multi-select, bulk renew, bulk revoke with progress bars
+- [ ] Export: PEM download and PKCS#12 download both produce valid files
+- [ ] Target wizard: all 7 target types show correct config fields (NGINX, Apache, HAProxy, Traefik, Caddy, F5, IIS)
+- [ ] Deployment timeline shows correct step progression
+- [ ] Jobs page: status/type filters, approval workflow (approve/reject with reason)
+- [ ] Discovery page: summary stats, claim/dismiss, scan history
+- [ ] Network scans: CRUD, trigger scan
+- [ ] Audit trail: time range filter, CSV export, JSON export
+- [ ] Prometheus endpoint returns valid exposition format
+- [ ] CLI: `health`, `certs list`, `certs get`, `agents list` all return data
+- [ ] Auth flow: login screen appears with auth enabled, API rejects without key
+
+### Known Limitations
+
+- EST enrollment requires `CERTCTL_EST_ENABLED=true` (off by default in demo)
+- Network scans will timeout scanning demo CIDRs (no real hosts) — this is expected
+- Agent keygen mode is `server` in demo (production uses `agent` for key isolation)
+- OCSP/CRL endpoints require the Local CA to have been used for issuance (demo uses seeded certs, not issued via Local CA — OCSP/CRL may return empty results)
+- Post-deployment TLS verification requires a real TLS endpoint to probe — not testable in basic demo setup
+- Verification migration (000008) needs to be added to docker-compose.yml for full feature availability
+
+---
+
+## Prioritized Test Backlog
+
+For the engineering team to close gaps over the next 2-3 sprints:
+
+**Sprint 1 (1 week):**
+1. Fix docker-compose migration gap (000008_verification)
+2. Add `service/deployment_test.go` — 15 tests for deployment orchestration
+3. Add `service/target_test.go` — 8 tests for target CRUD
+4. Add missing handler tests: UpdateAgentGroup, UpdateIssuer, Get/UpdateNetworkScanTarget
+
+**Sprint 2 (1 week):**
+5. Add `CompleteAgentCSRRenewal` service tests — 8 tests
+6. Add `ExpireShortLivedCertificates` service tests — 4 tests
+7. Add domain model tests for `job.go`, `certificate.go`, `agent_group.go` — 20 tests
+8. Frontend: add error scenario tests for API client (404, 429, timeout) — 15 tests
+
+**Sprint 3 (1-2 weeks):**
+9. Expand scheduler tests — test loop execution with mocked time
+10. Add agent binary tests — mock HTTP control plane, test heartbeat + CSR + deploy flows
+11. Frontend: add React component tests for LoginPage, CertificateDetailPage, TargetsPage wizard
+12. Context cancellation tests for long-running service operations
