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).
