#5712 "Each router problem says what it means, whether it's real, and what
to do". A problem card now names its kind and reads its codes:
- Server errors: 500 means the app is failing; 502/503/504 means Traefik
couldn't reach it or it timed out.
- Client errors: 404 scanners, a 401/403 login wall, 429 rate limiting, or
499 clients giving up on a slow app.
- Slow: p95 against p50.
Each card says whether the problem is likely real, and ends with one next
step. A fault links to the swarm service behind the router, matched by
name, and traffic links to Settings → Thresholds. The wording lives in
plugins/traefik/meaning.py.
The plugin manager now hands out a loaded plugin's submodule
(loaded_plugin_submodule), so Traefik and host_agent reach Docker's
models the same way (#5775).

#5777 "Maintenance would make a node the operator keeps drained active after
its reboot". A swarm node already set to drain or pause, such as a manager
kept free of work, is no longer drained before its reboot or made active
after it. Its job only updates and reboots it, and back-in-service needs it
ready but not active.

Importing plugins.docker.models by path defines its tables a second time,
because the plugin manager loaded them as _steward_plugin_docker.models.
Inside the app that raises InvalidRequestError, not ImportError. The cadence
integration test hit it, and #5767's _swarm (used when a job is planned)
carried the same import. Both now go through maintenance.docker_models().

#5768 "A maintenance cadence: a group's updates and reboots, one host at a
time, on a schedule". A plan names an inventory group, a weekday and time
in a time zone, a window and a reboot policy (only when required by
default). At its slot a run takes the group's hosts in order and gives each
a #5767 maintenance job. The next host starts only when the last is back in
service: its agent is posting and, for a swarm node, the node is active and
every replicated service is at its replicas. A failure stops the run, and
no host is started once the window has passed. A host's latest failure
shows as host_agent/<host>/maintenance_failed, for an ordinary alert rule.
The page is Hosts → Maintenance.

#5767 "Steward hands a host a maintenance job and follows it to the end,
through its own restarts", milestone 514.
A host_maintenance_jobs row per job: queued → updating → [draining →]
rebooting → [undraining →] done, or failed / timed_out. Steward's answer to
an ingest post carries the step that host's agent should carry out now; the
agent (1.18.0) leaves each step id for the root helper once, and the helper
refuses an id it already ran, so repeats are harmless. Results come back as
the #5766 maintenance events, matched by step id; the reboot completes when
the host's `started` event has a boot_at after the reboot was handed out.
The job reboots only when the update says one is needed (or never, if asked).
A swarm node is drained first by itself if it's a manager or by a manager
with the helper, and made active after; with no manager to drain it the job
is refused. A minute tick times out a job past its state's deadline. A
maintenance window over host_agent/<host> lasts the rest of the job.
Everything is on the row, so a Steward restart, or the reboot of the host
Steward runs on, resumes from the next post. Ingest runs it in its own
savepoint so a job going wrong never costs the samples.
The Agent panel leads with a running job and says what a finished one did;
Manage agent has Update now (with "never reboot"), or says why a job can't
start. Integration test: hand off, Steward restarts, the post-boot events
close the job.
