End-to-end wizard from /hosts/{id}/restore (or per-snapshot deep link
/hosts/{id}/snapshots/{sid}/restore) → tree-browse → dispatch →
restore-shaped live job page.
Backend (internal/server/http/ui_restore.go):
- GET handlers render the four-step wizard against the wireframe shape
in docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-04-p3-restore-design.md.
- HTMX tree partial endpoint hits fetchTreeWithCache (P3-X2) so each
directory expansion is a sub-second cached lookup after the first
miss.
- POST validates: snapshot_id non-empty, ≥1 absolute path, in-place
mode requires confirm_hostname == host name, agent online. On error
re-renders the wizard with the operator's input intact. Happy path
mints a job_id, computes the new-directory target as
/var/restic-restore/<job-id>/ (operator can't escape the prefix —
server picks it), creates the job row, ships command.run with
kind=restore + RestorePayload, writes a host.restore audit row,
returns HX-Redirect (or 303) to the live job page.
Templates:
- host_restore.html: single-page progressively-enabled wizard matching
_diag/p3-restore-wizard wireframe. Form-state-driven JS computes a
running tally of selected paths and the step-4 confirm summary
client-side; the server re-renders on validation failure with form
fields preserved.
- partials/tree_node.html: recursive HTMX-served tree fragment.
- Top-level Restore button on host_detail right rail + per-snapshot
Restore action on snapshot rows replace the previous P3-stub.
Restore-shaped job page (job_detail.html):
- Progress widget rendered as a panel rather than a bare strip when
the job is active.
- Current-file display under the bar, updated from log.stream stdout
lines that look like absolute paths. Hidden for non-restore kinds.
Migration 0012:
- Add restore + diff to the jobs.kind CHECK. Rebuild required (SQLite
can't ALTER CHECK in place); follows the safe pattern from 0005.
Defensive: stash job_logs into a temp table before the rebuild and
INSERT OR IGNORE back afterwards so even if SQLite cascades on
DROP TABLE jobs the log history survives.
Tests:
- ui_restore_test covers GET step-1 render, GET pre-selected snapshot
summary card, POST missing snapshot, POST missing paths, POST
in-place wrong-hostname rejection (no command.run leaks to the
agent), POST happy path (HX-Redirect + correct payload + audit
row), POST against offline host returns 503.
Restage block (CLAUDE.md) deferred to the end of the restore phase.
Extract header/vitals/sub-tabs into a host_chrome partial that every
host-detail tab page renders. Sources / Schedules / Repo go from
inert divs to real <a> links backed by stub pages that share the
chrome and a 'coming next' body — slices 2/3/4 fill them in.
Also re-establishes the version indicator (host_schedule_version vs
agent's applied_schedule_version) in the header.
Drops the legacy fat-schedule list/edit templates that referenced
fields removed by the P2 redesign (Manual / Paths / RetentionPolicy
on Schedule); the new templates land in slice 3.
Two issues from a smoke session:
1. The awaiting-agent panel never refreshed — operator had to go
back to the dashboard to see the host had connected.
2. Generated passwords were displayed only on the POST response.
Navigating away (or even an accidental tab close) lost them
permanently, so the operator couldn't update the rest-server's
htpasswd.
Both are the same fix: convert the POST-rendered transient
"result state" into a durable GET page at /hosts/pending/{token}.
* New route GET /hosts/pending/{token} renders the install-command +
htpasswd snippet view. Password is decrypted from the (still-
encrypted-at-rest) token row on every render — operator can
refresh, bookmark, navigate away and come back. Once the agent
enrols, the page redirects to /hosts/{id}; once the token
expires, redirect to /hosts/new.
* New route GET /hosts/pending/{token}/awaiting returns a polled
HTML fragment that the pending page swaps in every 2s via HTMX.
States: awaiting (keep polling) | connected (show "Open host →"
+ "View schedules" CTAs, polling stops) | expired (mint-new
link, polling stops). Polling stops naturally because only the
awaiting state's wrapper carries the hx-trigger attribute.
* POST /hosts/new now 303-redirects to /hosts/pending/{token}
on success; validation errors keep re-rendering the form with
banner.
Supporting changes:
* New store helper Store.GetEnrollmentTokenStatus(tokenHash) for
the polling endpoint — returns {expires_at, consumed_at,
consumed_host} in one round-trip without dragging in the
attachments-decryption path.
* New ui.Renderer.RenderPartial(w, name, data) for HTMX fragment
responses (no layout wrap). Picks an arbitrary page's template
set as the lookup point — every page parses the full common-
paths list, so they all see every partial.
* add_host.html stripped to form-only; pending_host.html owns the
result-state UI; awaiting_agent.html is the polled partial.

Cohesive batch from a smoke-test session against a real rest-server.
Themed bullets:
* Agent runs as root, sandboxed via systemd. CapabilityBoundingSet
drops to CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH + restore caps; ProtectSystem=strict
with ReadWritePaths confined to /etc + /var/lib/restic-manager;
NoNewPrivileges blocks escalation. Install script no longer
creates a service user. spec.md §4.2 / §14.1 / §14.3 explain the
rationale (matches UrBackup / Veeam / Bareos defaults; trying to
back up "everything" as an unprivileged user creates silent skips
on /home, /root, /var/lib/* with no upside vs the threat model
the agent already implies).
* Init-repo end-to-end. New JobKind="init" wired through agent
runner, restic.Env.RunInit, server dispatcher, and a UI button
(red "Initialise repo" in the run-now panel). hosts.repo_initialised_at
flips on init success, on backup success, or on a non-empty
snapshots.report. The "Run now" / "Init" / "Retry" branching now
drives both the dashboard host row and the host-detail panel.
Migrations 0004 (column), 0005 (jobs.kind CHECK widened — using
the safe create-new-then-rename pattern; first version corrupted
job_logs.job_id FK), 0006 (cleans up job_logs FK on already-
affected DBs).
* rest-server creds embedded at exec time only. restic.Env gains
RepoUsername; mergeRestCreds() builds the user:pass@-prefixed URL
inside envSlice() and never assigns it back to the struct, so
nothing slog-able ever sees the cleartext form. RedactURL helper
for any future surface that needs to log a URL safely. Both
helpers tested.
* Add-host UX. Repo password is now optional — server mints a
24-byte URL-safe random one and surfaces it once, alongside an
htpasswd snippet ("echo PASS | htpasswd -B -i ... USERNAME") so
the operator pastes one command on the rest-server host and one
on the endpoint. Result page also links the install snippet at
/install/install.sh (was /install.sh — 404'd before) and pipes
to bash (not sh — script uses set -o pipefail and other
bashisms; on Debian/Ubuntu sh is dash).
* Late-subscriber race in JobHub. A fast-failing job could finish
(DB write + Broadcast) before the browser's HX-Redirect → page
load → WS-connect path completed, so the JS sat forever waiting
on a job.finished that already passed. JobHub split into
Register + Send + Run; handleJobStream now subscribes first,
re-fetches the job, and sends a synthetic job.finished if the
state is already terminal.
* HTMX error visibility. New toast partial listens to
htmx:responseError and surfaces the response body as a
bottom-right toast — every server-side validation error now
becomes visible without per-handler JS wiring. Also handles
custom rm:toast events for future server-pushed notifications
via the HX-Trigger header. Themed via existing CSS vars.
* Dashboard rows are now whole-row clickable to host detail
(CSS card-link pattern: absolute-positioned anchor + .row-action
z-index restoration so the action button stays clickable).
"View →" on a running job links to /jobs/<id> rather than
/hosts/<id> since the row click already covers the host page.
* "Run first" / "Run first backup" → "Run now" everywhere for
consistency.
* runbook (docs/e2e-smoke.md) updated — live-log streaming step
now reflects P1-26; mentions the browser-driven Run-now flow.
* _diag/dump-creds — moved out of cmd/ so go build doesn't pick
it up; .gitignore now excludes /_diag/ entirely.

Server-rendered HTML view backed by:
- new store.FleetSummary aggregating host counts + repo bytes +
snapshot total + open alerts + last-24h job rollup in two queries.
- GET /api/hosts (JSON list of hosts in the dashboard projection).
- GET /api/fleet/summary (JSON aggregate, same shape as above).
The HTML page (web/templates/pages/dashboard.html) renders the four
summary tiles + host table directly from store data — no separate
fetch. Per-row state colour comes from .host-row.{degraded,failed,
offline} which paint a 3px left edge so problem hosts are scannable
without reading. HTMX is loaded into the base layout so per-row
"Run now" buttons can hx-post to /hosts/{id}/run-backup, a thin
HTML wrapper that funnels into a new dispatchJob helper shared
with the JSON /api/hosts/{id}/jobs endpoint.
Empty state (zero hosts) collapses to the "no hosts yet" prompt
with the + Add host CTA — matches the v1 mockup.
Template helpers (internal/server/ui/funcs.go) added for byte
formatting (412 GB / 3.7 TB), relative time (3m ago / 2d ago), and
comma grouping (1,847). Pure Go, no template-magic dependency.
Browser-verified end-to-end with seeded fixture data: five hosts
across all four states render with correct dots, accents, last-
backup pills, sizes, snapshot counts, alerts, tags, and the right
action button (Run now / Retry / Run first / View → / offline).

P1-28: Tailwind standalone CLI wired into the Makefile. `make tailwind`
downloads the pinned v3.4.17 binary into bin/tailwindcss (gitignored),
builds web/styles/input.css → web/static/css/styles.css. `make build`
now runs the CSS pass first; `make tailwind-watch` for dev. Output is
embedded in the binary via web.FS — single static binary, no Node.
The CSS source carries every component class the v1 mockups defined
(status dots, buttons, host row, log viewer, progress bar, fields,
chips, snippet panel, empty state) so screens that land later can
just reach for them.
P1-23: html/template tree at web/templates with two layouts (base
with chrome, chromeless for login + bootstrap), one nav partial, and
two pages (dashboard placeholder, login). internal/server/ui parses
the tree at startup; ui_handlers.go in the http package wires:
GET / dashboard (303 → /login when unauthed)
GET /login sign-in form
POST /login consume form, mint session cookie, 303 → /
POST /logout drop cookie, 303 → /login
GET /static/* embedded Tailwind bundle
The HTML login flow shares store/session logic with /api/auth/login
via a new authenticateAndSession helper — same security guarantees,
two surface representations (HTML form / JSON).
Verified end-to-end: bootstrap → form-login → authed dashboard →
sign-out → 303 cycle works in the browser; Tailwind output emits
only the component classes referenced in the live templates (9.6kB
minified).
