P5-01 — Documentation site under docs/book/ rendered with mdBook
(downloaded via Makefile, same static-binary pattern as Tailwind).
Structured chapters: getting started, concepts, operations,
security, reference. `make docs` / `make docs-watch`. Generated
output gitignored.
P5-02 — CONTRIBUTING.md rewritten from placeholder to a full
guide. CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md adapted from Contributor Covenant for a
single-maintainer project. .gitea/issue_template/{bug,feature}.md
and PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md.
P5-04 — Six README screenshots captured live from a fresh server
bootstrap (login, empty dashboard, add-host, alerts, settings,
audit log). README rewritten to centre the screenshot grid and
link out to the docs site.
P5-05 — SECURITY.md with disclosure policy (3-day ack, 30-day
default window), scope in/out, threat-model summary, operator
hardening checklist. Mirrored as a docs-site chapter.
P5-06 — End-to-end test harness. e2e/compose.e2e.yml brings up
server + sibling Linux agent (alpine + restic) + restic/rest-server.
Agent uses announce-and-approve so Playwright can drive the full
operator flow: bootstrap → login → accept pending → backup →
verify terminal status. Second spec scrapes /metrics to assert
the P6-04 endpoint surface. .gitea/workflows/e2e.yml runs on every
PR; local how-to in docs/e2e.md.
New internal/server/metrics package emits the legacy text/plain
exposition format directly, so we don't pull in
prometheus/client_golang. Endpoint is opt-in via RM_METRICS_TOKEN
and/or RM_METRICS_TRUSTED_CIDR; route is not mounted at all if
neither gate is set. Both gates ANDed when both configured.
Per-host gauges (online, last_backup_*, repo_size_bytes,
snapshot_count, open_alerts, repo_status), server gauges
(hosts_total/online, active_alerts by severity, build_info), and
an in-memory job-duration histogram observed from the existing
MsgJobFinished branch in the WS handler.
Docs in docs/prometheus.md (enable + scrape config + metric
reference + dashboard import). Sample dashboard at
deploy/grafana/restic-manager-dashboard.json - six panels,
Grafana schema 39, single Prometheus datasource variable.
Tests: golden render, concurrent observe, bucket boundaries in
the metrics package; auth matrix (no auth -> 404, token gate,
CIDR gate, both required) in the HTTP layer.
The reverse proxy is assumed to live outside this project (Caddy,
nginx, Traefik, whatever the operator already runs). The reference
compose stands up only the server: image-pinned via RM_VERSION,
named volume for operator state, localhost-bound so the proxy
reaches it on loopback.
docs/reverse-proxy.md covers what the proxy must forward — the
X-Forwarded-* headers, Host, and Connection: upgrade for the agent
WebSocket and live-log streams — plus the RM_TRUSTED_PROXY CIDR
rule that gates header trust. Worked examples for Caddy, nginx
(with the websocket upgrade map + 1h proxy_read_timeout for live
logs), and Traefik.
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.

The smoke runbook caught a real bug: ConsumeEnrollmentToken was
inserting into host_credentials (FK -> hosts) inside the same tx as
the token burn, but the host row didn't exist yet — CreateHost
runs in the *next* statement. The agent saw a generic 401 with no
clue why.
Fix: drop the host_credentials insert from ConsumeEnrollmentToken;
the HTTP handler now does Consume -> CreateHost ->
SetHostCredentials. SetHostCredentials failure is logged loudly
but doesn't fail the enrol — operator recovers via PUT
/api/hosts/{id}/repo-credentials.
Adds slog.Warn lines on both 401 paths in handleAgentEnroll so the
underlying cause is visible in server logs (the wire response stays
generic to avoid leaking which step failed).
Test: TestEnrollmentTransfersRepoCreds rewritten to mirror the new
order (consume -> create host -> SetHostCredentials).
Runbook (docs/e2e-smoke.md): rest-server moved off 8000 (commonly
in use); URLs use trailing slash on the rest path; clarified that
secrets_key is minted on first agent start, not at enrol time.

Adds docs/e2e-smoke.md — an ~5-minute runbook that walks the full
P1 happy path against a sibling restic/rest-server: bootstrap
admin, mint token with repo creds, enrol an agent, watch the
config.update push land, run a backup, confirm the snapshot, edit
creds and watch the second push fire. Per the design discussion
this is a runbook (not a Go integration test); the Playwright
version lands in P5-06.
GET /api/hosts/{id}/repo-credentials returns the redacted view —
{repo_url, repo_username, has_password} — so the UI can pre-fill
the edit form without ever pulling the password out of the AEAD
blob.
Marks P1-32 / P1-33 / P1-34 done in tasks.md.
