The startup normalize and _run_acme_preflight covered daemon startup and issue/renew, but the recurring collector poll called lib.acme.list_certs() without normalizing ACME_HOME. A non-daemon run (e.g. a manual run as the WebUI user) re-creating account.conf owner-only made every acme.sh --list exit 2, so the collector returned certs=[] and the UI showed no certs until the next issue/renew or daemon restart.
- collector: normalize_acme_home() before list_certs() so the poll self-heals
- issue pre-check: normalize before the direct lib.acme.list_certs()
- _parse_account_conf: read acme.sh v3 account.conf (not just .account.conf)
- _collect_acme: actionable status.error for the account.conf perm case
- install.sh: chown ACME_HOME conf files to the daemon user
- move state collectors from lib/state.py to daemon/collectors/ (7
modules, registration side-effect; daemon/server.py imports the
package before the first populate())
- webui/api: new daemon_route() decorator factory in common.py
collapses the try/except daemon-proxy boilerplate in all 8
blueprints (rules/params/body/transform keep responses identical)
- firewall: interface-coverage invariant — config is the source of
truth for zone interfaces (absent key = empty, no hands-off
zones); pure validate_coverage() enforced at save (400) and apply
(409, force: true overrides), top-level `unmanaged` exemption
- lib: get_config() reads are now pure (no dir creation or writes);
new lib/bootstrap.py creates runtime dirs and persists the
one-shot nginx legacy migration at daemon start, after
system_import (lib.nginx.migrate_config_file)
- lib/common: compute_pending() apply-bookkeeping helper
- daemon: emit_and_refresh() handler helper; refresh_state(bump=) so
/status/refresh no longer bumps versions (poll/mutation only)
- acme: move --log last so acme.sh never treats a real arg as the
log-file argument
- docs: AGENTS.md, config.md, state-model.md, api.md updated;
HARDEN.md dropped (plan implemented); apply-confirm force wording
Tests: 917 passed; ruff check + format clean.
acme:
- acme.sh chmods its tree to owner-only (700/600) every run, which
broke the two-user model: a tree left owner-only by one user made
every acme.sh call of the other exit 2
- normalize_acme_home() reopens group access (sudo chmod g+rwX,
files only — setgid dirs trip RestrictSUIDSGID); _run_acme_preflight
is the choke point before every daemon acme.sh call + startup
- acme service now runs as the daemon user; --log persists the raw CA
transcript; SYS_LOG=6 journals manual issue/renew runs
- timer daily-only: two runs/day landed inside ZeroSSL's 24h
validation backoff (Retry-After: 86400) — a permanent renewal lockout
- _collect_acme no longer raises on cert-list failure; reports
status.error (AcmeState.status) so the certs page can surface it
firewall: re-stamp the applied baseline on live zone mutations
(interfaces/services/rich-rules/masquerade/forward-ports) so cancel-all
reverts to post-mutation state, not a stale install-era snapshot;
set_masquerade syncs the declarative config for existing zones;
add_forward_port records toaddr only with toport
status: apply-all accepts {"force": true} (forwarded to the firewall
apply only); ApplyConfirm force checkbox; applyResultToasts() — the
errors map wins over the 200; ActionButton checks errors before the
success toast; dashboard uses ApplyConfirm
system_import: drift re-imports carry the existing apply-meta; first
import stamps the adopted content as applied (it is the running state)
— no phantom pending changes
nginx: get_config only re-saves when migration actually changed the
config (no more owner/mtime churn on every read)
install: repair mis-owned top-level system dirs (tmpfiles
unsafe-path-transition), warn with a full-repair command for deeper
mis-ownership
daemon/server: loop.get_exception_handler() (aiohttp API fix)
tests: 888 pytest + 24 node passing; ruff clean
Post-DHCP-incident hardening per HARDEN.md.
- apply guard: refuse (ConflictError, `force` overrides) when a
network-managed interface would end up in no zone; absent
`interfaces` key = hands-off, explicit `[]` = unassign-all
- surface `uncovered_interfaces` in firewall state (lo/wg* filtered)
+ advisory in /api/status/pending; zones.js banner + interfaces-picker
last-zone confirm
- target drift (Option A): absent or default-normalizing target is
unmanaged: not diffed, never re-set by apply; create_zone runs
--new-zone first and sets non-default targets only; importer omits
the target key for default zones
- FirewallToDhcpSync keeps stale DHCP ranges and flags them instead of
deleting; `dnsmasq` affected only on a real gateway mutation
- real pre-apply recovery snapshot in data/firewall/rules.json
({timestamp, default_zone, zones, config}); drop the empty post-apply
skeleton
- daemon shutdown: bounded grace for in-flight tasks + suppressed
teardown exception noise on SIGTERM
- also carries the firewall service-descriptions feature
(get_service_descriptions + service_descriptions state field + UI)
- tests + docs across firewall/status/state/sync/schema; ruff clean,
867 passing
- lib/common: stamp_applied() now records a _last_applied_config
snapshot alongside the hash; strip_apply_meta() centralizes
bookkeeping-key stripping; deep_diff() reports field-level changes
- state collectors (dnsmasq/nginx/wireguard/networkd) expose
pending_diff so the dashboard can show exactly which fields
changed since the last apply (wireguard diff excludes
private_key paths)
- dashboard pending-changes card renders per-change lines with a
generic fallback when no snapshot is recorded
- firewall: firewalld built-in zones no longer flagged as
unmanaged; public-zone masquerade skipped in pending changes
since apply drives it via nftables propagation
- schema: PendingChange TypedDict; pending_diff on DnsmasqStatus /
WgStatus; tests in test_common.py, test_firewall.py, test_state.py
- daemon: send full snapshot on connect; versions/tick now carry the
full state of one subsystem (subsystem + data); no legacy
updated/subsystems payloads; refresh_state and POST /status/refresh
broadcast per-subsystem versions with data
- client: modelSet() patches models in place; onMessage/topic refresh
retired; 3s initial-load fallback via new POST /api/status/refresh
- schema: lib/schema.py TypedDicts + hoover/schema.js defaults +
docs/state-model.md as single source of truth for state shapes
- system: poll at 1s, volatile metrics registered, dashboard uses a
dedicated system model (status model removed)
- firewall: refuse to strip both https and ssh from the default zone
(409, force override via UI confirm); set_zone_services persists
services to the declarative config; collector exposes default_zone
- UI: pages migrate to flat state shapes; post-mutation modelFetch
refreshes removed (WS delta covers it)
- tests: ws snapshot/delta/broadcast, refresh-state, schema types,
model-set/js ws handler and reconnect fallback
- Replace per-zone --list-all calls with single --list-all-zones in _collect_firewall
- Add _parse_all_zones_output() parser with rich rules/rich-rules normalization
- Convert daemon shutdown to async with proper runner cleanup and socket unlink
- Add TimeoutStopSec=15 to vacuum-walld.service for graceful stop
- Fix exception handling in _collect_dnsmasq
- Remove management badge from proxy path rows
- lib/state.py: per-subsystem collectors with versioned state store
- daemon/server.py: state refresh on request, batch routing updates
- webui/static/hoover/html.js: new html tag template helper via htm.js
- webui/static/hoover/websocket.js: real-time state change notifications
- webui/static/hoover/vdom.js: VDOM improvements for keyed diff
- All frontend pages refactored to use html templates
- Add tests for state management and polling
- Update docs and AGENTS.md
