#5740 "A metric that departs from its normal is recorded as an anomaly to
review, and is findable after it ends", milestone 513.
- Every minute each learned key's last 15 minutes is judged against its
hour's normal: above the usual hold x1.25 and by the metric's floor opens
an occurrence, which ends when the level comes back.
- metric_anomalies holds one row per item to review; a repeat while it
still waits joins it as an occurrence (metric_anomaly_spans).
- An ended row nobody reviews within anomalies.review_days (14, Settings ->
Thresholds) lapses; an ongoing one never does.
- Learning skips every hour an occurrence covers unless its anomaly was
marked normal: no normal is learned without review.
- Alerts -> Anomalies lists those to review first, then the reviewed and
lapsed under day dividers; marking is operator/admin and audited.
- The Overview widget and get_overview warn of open ones and count those
to review; the host page shows its own; the weekly report lists the
week's and the lapsed; MCP list_anomalies and review_anomaly.
- Reviewed and lapsed rows are pruned at data.retention_days, and kept
in backups like alert history.

A metric registered with learn_normal() gets, for every resource reporting
it, a usual hold (the 90th percentile across past days of each hour's p95)
and a usual peak for each slot:
- an hour of the day once 5 days of history exist;
- an hour of the week once history reaches back 3 weeks, so weekly jobs are
learned too.
Each slot takes in the hours either side, so a job that runs a little late
stays normal. One SQL statement relearns everything hourly into
metric_norms, from the rollup plus the raw window not rolled up yet;
norms_at() reads the slot a moment falls in. Nothing is registered yet:
Traefik (#5741) and hosts (#5742) opt in.

plugin_metrics_hourly gains value_p95 beside value_avg and value_max. A
two-minute backup spike raises the hour's peak and leaves its p95 low; an
hour spent at that level raises both. Learned normals (milestone 513) need
that difference to call a recurring spike usual without calling the same
level held at another hour usual too. Hours rolled up before this keep a
NULL p95 and read as their average.

#5507 "Alert emails through the outbox, gathered for 2 minutes"
(milestone 501). Replaces the in-memory core/alert_burst.py.
- outbox.hold_alert: an alert joins each recipient's held alert email, or
opens one due 2 minutes later (System 156 ruling). A Postgres advisory
lock keeps two alerts at once from opening two windows for one reader.
- email_outbox_events.alert_json (migration 0043) keeps the alert as it
fired, so the email written when the window closes says what it said.
- write_held writes it then, in the reader's zone: the usual alert email
for one alert, the list for several (outbox.alert_words).
- after_settle records on each AlertEvent, once every email carrying it
has settled: email_sent, or email_error naming each reader it didn't
reach and the server's reason.
- A held email survives a restart and goes out when its window closes.
- A refusal of a message's one recipient no longer repeats the address.

#5506 "Email outbox: a table of outgoing email and a sender that retries
until accepted, for up to an hour" (milestone 501).
- email_outbox (migration 0042) holds each message per recipient, its
words, its state (held / pending / sending / sent / failed), attempts and
the server's last answer. email_outbox_events links alert events for
#5507.
- core/outbox.py: enqueue; a sender task every 15 s claims what is due
(SKIP LOCKED, stale claims released), sends the batch over one
connection with no session held, and settles each row:
- accepted -> sent;
- a 5xx refusal -> failed at once with the server's words;
- no connection, a timeout, a 4xx -> retried after 30 s, 1, 2, 5, 10,
15 min, the last try at the hour, then failed;
- a test (retry=False) settles on its first answer.
It runs on startup, so a row left by a restart goes out at boot.
- notifications.smtp_open is the one place a connection is opened.
- mail.message takes the html part as optional.
- cleanup ages email_outbox rows on the data window.
Senders move onto it in #5507 and #5508.

#5490 "A day of one metric reads fast even cold". A cold 24 h series read
measured 18.3 s against 63 ms warm (#5485): every sample's row sat on its own
heap page. ix_plugin_metrics_series_value carries `value` (INCLUDE), so the
read is an index-only scan; it replaces the plain series index from 0023.
It is built once, with CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY from a task started after the
app is serving, never in a migration, so the boot isn't held while it builds
over the live table (#5220) and ingest and pages carry on. A build cut short
by a restart leaves an INVALID index; the next boot drops and rebuilds it.
Later boots find it present and only check. Postgres keeps it current on each
insert, as it did the index it replaces.

#5464 "Group rules: one rule covers every host, or every host in a group",
step 2 of milestone 499 "Alerts you can trust". Each rule named one host, so
the live instance carried six rules for three hosts, and a new host had no
agent-offline or disk alert until someone copied them.
- alert_rules.covers / cover_group / parent_id (migration 0041). A rule on
host_agent may cover "all_hosts" or a "group" (an inventory group: the
Hosts ruling, #5294). A covering rule has no state; Steward keeps one
ordinary child rule per covered host, named "<rule>: <host>", so each
host's alert keeps its own state, history and acknowledgement.
- alerts.service.reconcile_children: a covered host that has reported in
the last 7 days gets a child; a host no longer covered loses its child;
children take the parent's condition, checks, notify setting, action and
on/off. Run on save and each minute (alert_reconcile).
- A child is changed through its parent: edit, toggle and delete of a child
are refused (409 / PartOfCoveringRule); its edit page opens the parent.
- Rule form: a Covers choice for host sources, with the group picker; fixed
once the rule exists. Rules list: a covering rule reads "every host in
swarm · 3 hosts" with its hosts' rules nested under it, each opening its
history. The history picker and the rule count leave covering rules out.
- MCP: create_alert_rule takes covers/group; update_alert_rule takes group
and passes changes down; list_alert_rules shows covers, hosts and part_of.
- docs/core/alerting.md: "Rules that cover hosts".

#5463 "Acknowledgements on record: an event and who did it", step 1 of
milestone 499 "Alerts you can trust". The live walk in #5461 found that
acknowledging changed only the alert's current state: once it resolved,
nothing said who had acknowledged it or when.
- alert_events.actor_id (migration 0040): the person behind a transition.
- Acknowledging writes a firing → acknowledged event by the acknowledger.
- A rule edit, disable or enable that resets an alert carries its actor
(web and MCP alike).
- The history page notes "acknowledged by X" and "rule disabled by X"; MCP
get_alert_history returns `by`.
- One usernames() helper in alerts.service, used by the active list, the
history page and the MCP tools.
- docs/core/alerting.md: the state diagram no longer shows an acknowledged
alert re-firing, and says what an event records.

Step #5429 "Reset by email: request, link and new-password page" of
milestone 497 "Passwords: change your own, and reset it by email".
- Sign-in page: "Forgot your password?" while a mail server is set.
- /forgot takes a username or email and answers the same either way; only
an active local account with a real address gets mail. Requests count
per address on their own throttle, so they never lock out sign-in.
- password_resets (migration 0039): a one-time key, stored as its sha256,
working for an hour; asking again replaces it.
- /reset/<key>: the new password, then signed straight in; every other
browser is signed out (sessions_since). Bad keys count as invite keys do.
- Email "[Steward] Reset your password", in the account's own zone.
- Audited: user.password_reset_requested, user.password_reset_by_email.

#5427 "A password reset doesn't end the sessions already signed in with

resetting their own password carries on signed in.

The operator's ask: an invite link sent by mail, the key in the URL, and
the new user choosing their own username, password and email.
- user_invites (migration 0037): the key's sha256 only, the address, the
role and days the admin chose, who sent it, used/revoked.
- core/invites: create (revokes an older open invite to the address),
renew (new key, new clock), find_pending, the four states, signup checks.
- /invite/<key>, outside sign-in and throttled like login: the invitee's
username, email (prefilled, theirs to change) and password; the account
takes the admin's role, the key is used up in the same transaction and
they are signed in. A bad key gets one plain message.
- Settings › Users: Invite by email (address, role, 1/7/30 days), sent from
the admin in their zone; without a mail server, or if sending fails, the
link is shown once to copy. Invites not yet used are listed with Resend
and Withdraw.
- Audit: user.invited, user.invite_resent, user.invite_revoked, user.joined.

Milestone 495 "Email goes to each account, in its own time zone", on the
operator's ruling (System 156): notifications go to each user, times in
their zone, defaults on, toggled per user or per role.
- users.notify_alerts / notify_report (migration 0036): None follows the
role's default, notify.<kind>.<role> in settings, all on to start.
- mail.pick_recipients: active accounts that want the email and have an
address mail can reach (an SSO placeholder like name@oidc is skipped and
flagged), each in its own zone with no UTC beside it, then the Also send

all over one SMTP connection.
- Alerts, the weekly report and the test email (to you, in your zone, plus
the typed addresses) send that way. The save-time smtp.tz capture is gone.
- Notifications: a role × email table of defaults, who each email reaches
and who can't be reached, and Also send to with its own zone, which starts
as the first admin's to open the page.
- Account page: your address and your two switches. Users: an Emailed
column, and an admin sets an account's switches on its page.
- The Alerts page counts the accounts it emails. zone_select macro and
formatting.zones_by_region shared by Account and Notifications.

- users.time_zone (0034). An account without one takes the browser's zone
on its first page (POST /account/time-zone/adopt, never over a choice made
by hand); the session follows the account on every request.
- /account: who you are and the zone every page writes its times in,
reached from your name in the sidebar.
- formatting.when: 'Today 06:58', 'Yesterday 23:41', 'Tue 6 Oct 14:12',
'6 Oct 2025 14:12', 24-hour, in the reader's zone; |ago's hover is the
exact local moment instead of UTC; tz_label() for column headers.
- Audit log: When (EDT) with exact times, one detail fact a line, on classes.
- tzdata in the image, and the airgapped smoke checks a zone resolves.

DNS monitors take an optional Resolver, a server's IP. Set, the check asks
that server directly for A and AAAA over UDP and records how long it took
to answer; empty keeps today's lookup through the container's resolver.
"Does my local DNS still answer for public names" and "does 1.1.1.1" are
now separate monitors. No new dependency.
On a host's page the Ansible card moves above the Docker list, which can
run to dozens of containers and hid it.

#5212 "Plain labels: no raw ids, scopes, metric keys or unexplained jargon",
batch 2:
- A run records where it came from: AnsibleRun.origin ("schedule", "alert"
or "mcp") and origin_id, set by the scheduler, Run now, alert actions and
the MCP tools. Migration 0031 backfills past runs from alert events,
schedules' last runs, and MCP audit entries.
- The runs list has a Started by column: "schedule nightly", "alert rule
nas down", "alice via MCP" or "alice", linked where there is a page.
The raw scope tooltip is gone.
- Run detail: no run id in the subtitle or body, Started by in words, and
the host summary lists failed and unreachable hosts first. The live
output only follows new lines while the reader is at the bottom, and
when the run finishes the page reloads once so the badge and summary
are final.
- list_ansible_runs and get_ansible_run report origin and origin_id.

The dashboard's host widgets took 18-60 s. Every "latest reading" query
(hosts overview, host-agent fleet, host page, vitals, SNMP, MCP get_host)
searched plugin_metrics for the newest row per metric. Postgres has no skip
scan, so each one read every raw sample in the 7-day window.
- plugin_metric_latest: one row per (source, resource, metric).
record_metrics upserts it in the same transaction, moving forward only and
in sorted key order. Migration 0030 seeds it by stepping the existing index.
- Retention drops a latest row once its sample leaves the raw window, so a
resource that stopped reporting disappears when its history does, as before.
Renames carry it along.
- A quiet host keeps its last values, marked stale. A time-bounded query
would have shown it as missing.
- Vitals sparklines span the 6 h they claim, averaged in SQL to ~120 points,
instead of fetching 6 h raw and drawing the last 120 samples.
- Dashboard and share-view cells: "Loading…" until the first answer; a 20 s
deadline per fetch; "Couldn't load (why)" with Retry now and an automatic
retry for cells that don't poll; "as of HH:MM" in the header, and
"couldn't refresh · as of" when a refresh fails over shown data.

Measured on dev (385a579), agent posts cut to five samples still dropped:
flush=8.8s for 990 rows, 6.6s for 680, 8.4s for 1000 — about 110 rows/s,
~9 ms a row, with rules and evaluation near zero. One random read per
row fits a random uuid4 primary key whose index no longer fits in memory:
every new row lands on a random page of it. (Inferred from the rate; the
table and index sizes have not been read.)
- steward.core.ids.time_ordered_id: a UUIDv7-layout string (48-bit ms
timestamp, then random), same 36-char shape as the stored uuid4 ids, so
no migration. Python's uuid7() arrives in 3.14; the image runs 3.13.
- Used for plugin_metrics and its hourly rollup, monitor_results,
audit_events, the docker metrics/hourly/events/logs tables, and the
traefik and unifi time series.
- MAX_SAMPLES_PER_INGEST 5 → 2 (~400 rows) for now: it fits the agent's
10 s even at the old rate, so hosts land data whichever way the new rate
comes out. Raise it once the new rate is measured.

The Monitors list now opens with a count strip (down, up with how many
degraded, pending, paused) and sorts down, degraded, pending, up, paused,
by name within each. Degraded is up but worth a look: uptime at or below
its warning floor, or the latest response past its critical cutoff, both
from Settings → Thresholds; a slow-but-tolerable reply is coloured, not
sorted.
A monitor had no page of its own: every link went to the list. Now
/monitors/<id> shows its state and since when, latency, uptime for 24h/7d/
30d, TLS days, the last checks, recent failures with their errors, and its
settings (HTTP header names, never their values). Status links to it, and
adding or editing returns to it.
Adding is its own page (/monitors/new, form.html shared with edit) behind
an "Add monitor" button; a refused add re-renders the form with the error
and what was typed instead of a bare 400 text. Row actions are labelled
icon buttons, type names read Ping/TCP/DNS/HTTP (|monitor_type), and the
heartbeat uses pill-up/pill-down, so HEX_CEILING drops to 56.

Agent offline is an ordinary rule now. The host_agent scheduler records
host_agent/<host>/seconds_since_seen every minute (from last_seen_at, or
registration time for an agent that never reported), replacing the task
that only logged stale agents. The catalog offers the metric, and picking
it on a new rule fills "> 180".
No data: each rule's state tracks its last sample and its usual gap,
smoothed so that an outage counts as at most three gaps. A core task,
alert_silence_check, runs every 60s and marks a rule no_data_since once its
series has had no sample for three usual gaps (at least 5 minutes; an hour
while the cadence is unknown). A never-sampled rule counts from when it
started watching. The mark sits beside the state, so a firing alert that
goes silent stays firing. Each silence records one event and sends one
notification (rule option notify_no_data, default on; muted in maintenance
windows). The next sample clears it with a "data resumed" event and
notification. Creating, changing, disabling or re-enabling a rule restarts
its watch.
Migration 0029 adds the columns and seeds each existing rule's last sample
and gap from its last day of data, so an upgrade does not flag every rule.
Shown on the Alerts page (a NO DATA badge with its start time), in MCP
list_alerts, list_alert_rules and get_host (state "no_data", no_data_since),
in get_overview findings (alert_no_data, or a firing alert marked silent)
and in the weekly report. The rule form has the notify option, and its
metric reference now matches what traefik records and lists host_agent.
Emails say "no data" and carry the event's note.
The metric-catalog guard also reads positional MetricBatch.add arguments.

#5059 "Alert state machine: acknowledgement holds until resolve; N
consecutive OK to resolve; editing, disabling or deleting a rule resets it".
- The state machine is now next_step(), a pure function of one sample. An
acknowledged alert stays acknowledged while breached; before, the next
breaching sample re-fired it. Firing and acknowledged alerts resolve after
consecutive_ok_required OK checks in a row (new rule column, default 1;
rule form, rules list and MCP create/update_alert_rule clear_after_checks).
- Changing what a rule watches (source, resource, metric, operator,
threshold) or disabling it resets its alert to inactive; a firing or
acknowledged one records a resolved event whose new note says why, and
nobody is notified. Web and MCP edits share alerts.service.apply_rule_change.
- Migration 0028: consecutive_ok_required, consecutive_ok_count,
alert_events.note, and metric_value nullable (a reset has no sample).

#5036 "SSO and LDAP: users keep their auth source, no merging into local

- users gain auth_source (local/ldap/oidc) and external_id (migration 0027).
A provider account is found by (source, subject) only: the LDAP entry DN
or the OIDC sub. A first sign-in whose username or email another account
holds is refused with a message naming why; a disabled user stays out.
- Local passwords sign in local accounts only.
- LDAP: port 636 is LDAPS, otherwise StartTLS before any bind; the server
certificate is checked against the system CAs or a CA pasted in
Settings -> Auth. The login name is escaped into the filter (RFC 4515),
and an empty password is refused before the directory sees it.
- OIDC: the ID token must carry this sign-in's nonce and the userinfo sub.

First step of milestone 461 (MCP server). A token is the credential an
MCP client presents as `Authorization: Bearer stw_…` to act as its user.
- api_tokens table (0026): sha256 hash only, display prefix, role
ceiling, expiry, revocation, throttled last_used_at.
- steward/core/api_tokens.py: mint, list, revoke, resolve. Resolution
re-reads the user's current role and acts with the lower of that and
the token's ceiling, so demoting or disabling a user weakens or kills
their tokens with nothing to revoke by hand.
- /ai-access/ (sidebar → Automation → AI access): every user manages
their own tokens, can't grant above their own role, sees the token
once. Session-only: a share-link viewer is refused. Create and revoke
are audited.
- Integration tests drive the routes against real Postgres so their
transactions run for real (#884 escaped CI behind a mocked session).

plugin_metrics grows by (sources × resources × ~30s cadence); keeping 90d of raw
is a large table. Add a raw→hourly rollup (mirroring the Docker plugin) so only a
short raw window is kept at full resolution, with hourly averages archived longer.
- PluginMetricHourly model + core migration 0024 (plugin_metrics_hourly: avg/max/
count per source/resource/metric/hour, unique bucket constraint + lookup index).
- steward/core/metrics_retention.rollup_plugin_metrics: date_trunc('hour') agg of
raw older than the hour-aligned raw window, idempotent pg upsert into hourly,
delete the rolled raw, prune hourly beyond the rollup window.
- cleanup.py: plugin_metrics is no longer blanket-deleted at data.retention_days;
_run_metrics_retention drives the rollup with windows read live from settings.
- Settings: metrics.retention.raw_days (7) + rollup_days (90), tunable on the
Thresholds & Retention page (new "Host metrics retention" card).
- Chart read: _history_for_host merges the hourly rollup (older part of the range)
with raw date_bin (recent part, capped ≤1h), so 30d charts keep working —
recent at full resolution, older at hourly. Route passes raw_days from settings.
- Tests: unit (cutoff helpers) + integration (rollup aggregates/prunes; history
merges hourly + raw) against Postgres.
Speed was already handled by the indexes + SQL aggregation; this is the storage
lever (raw window ~10x smaller).

plugin_metrics had only a PK on id, so every host-detail, full-metrics, and
dashboard-widget load sequentially scanned the entire time-series table — which
grows by (sources × resources × sample cadence), so the host views got slower
over time (operator-reported "blocked/slow" loads). monitor_results was already
indexed, so the uptime aggregation wasn't the bottleneck.
Add two composite indexes matching the hot query shapes:
- (source_module, resource_name, recorded_at) — history range scans, fleet/
widget queries, and the 'host:%' sub-resource prefix.
- (source_module, resource_name, metric_name, recorded_at) — the latest-value-
per-metric group-by/self-join.
Model __table_args__ + core migration 0023. Integration lane validates the

Collapse the three former check types into a single core `Monitor` entity
with one management surface (/monitors), one result table (monitor_results),
and a single scheduled task. Every type can now watch a free-standing custom
destination (optional host_id) — not just a registered Host.
- models: Monitor + MonitorResult replace PingResult/DnsResult; Host loses its
ping/dns facet columns (now Monitor rows linked by host_id).
- checks: monitors/{ping,dns,http}.py pure probes + runner.run_monitor
dispatcher; one monitor_check scheduler with a per-monitor due-filter.
- status: single monitor_status_source replaces the three sources.
- UI: /monitors blueprint (type-aware add/edit/list/widget); host hub shows a
host's linked monitors + "add monitor for this host"; nav + widget registry
+ alert metric catalog rewired. http plugin folded into core and removed.
- migration 0022 merges the http branch, data-migrates host facets +
http_monitors + all three result histories, drops the old tables/columns.
Resolves the per-host ping/dns auto-attach issue (#275): monitors are now
explicit, never auto-added to every host.

Milestone 72 phase B — Grafana-style drag-resize grid for dashboard widgets:
- DashboardWidget: replace `position` with a 12-col grid placement
(grid_x/grid_y/grid_w/grid_h). Migration 0021 backfills the old position
order into a 3-up grid (4 cols x 4 cells each) and drops position.
- View + share render a static CSS grid from x/y/w/h: fixed cell height
(h * 70px) with the body scrolling, so the arranged layout is what's shown;
collapses to a single column under 820px.
- Edit view: Gridstack.js 12.6.0 (vanilla, CDN, pinned) — drag the title bar
to move, drag a corner/edge to resize; every change autosaves to a new
/d/<id>/edit/layout endpoint. Replaces the SortableJS position reorder.
- add_widget appends at the bottom-left; remove no longer renumbers.
_get_widgets now orders by grid position (drives DOM + mobile fallback order).
Note: Gridstack drag-resize is browser-only, so CI can't exercise it — needs an
operator visual check of the edit experience.

Closes#550 (all four):
- Cancellation: track live subprocesses; POST /ansible/runs/<id>/cancel
(operator) SIGTERMs then SIGKILLs after a grace; new 'cancelled' status
(+ migration 0019, ALTER TYPE in autocommit). Queued runs cancel cleanly
before launch. Cancel button on run detail.
- Concurrency: global semaphore (ansible.max_concurrent_runs, default 3,
Settings→Ansible) caps simultaneous runs; excess show 'queued' (new status)
until a slot frees. Semaphore bound lazily per running loop.
- Structured results: parse PLAY RECAP into per-host ok/changed/unreachable/
failed/skipped + capture failed-task lines, stored in new results JSON
column (migration 0020); rendered as a host-summary table on run detail.
Keeps live streaming (no json-callback swap).
- Retention: full output written to a persistent log artifact
(/data/ansible/runs/<id>.log, env-overridable) beyond the 1 MB DB cap and
across restarts; in-memory replay buffer bounded + GC'd after completion;
Download-log route. Boot reconciliation now also sweeps stale 'queued'.
Unit tests for recap parsing + cancel flagging. Status colors updated across
run list / detail / schedules.

Adds cron-like recurring runs (the engine the maintenance-automation work
needs). New AnsibleSchedule model + migration 0018; a core ScheduledTask
(ansible_scheduled_runs, 60s) fires due schedules, each creating a
system-triggered AnsibleRun (triggered_by=None). Centralises the
resolve-inventory → create-run → launch flow in ansible/runner.trigger_run,
shared by the manual route (refactored to use it) and the scheduler.
Schedules UI under /ansible/schedules: create/edit/pause/delete/run-now,
with interval presets, scope targeting (all / group / target), extra-vars /
limit / tags / dry-run, and last-run status (resolved via last_run_id) +
next-run. Unit test for the due-check.
Task #549 (milestone #37).

The alertoperator Postgres enum (migration 0002) was created with the operator
VALUES as labels ('>', '<', …), but the model's Enum(AlertOperator) defaulted to
persisting enum-member NAMES ('gt', 'lt', …) — so inserting any AlertRule against
real Postgres raised 'invalid input value for enum alertoperator: "gt"'. Never
caught because unit tests mock the DB and no integration test inserted a rule
until task 250's. Add values_callable so the ORM round-trips the values.

Rebuilds the deleted NUT/UPS automation as a general alert action: any metric
can drive a playbook run on transition-to-firing.
- models/alerts.py + migration 0014: AlertRule.ansible_action (JSON, admin-only,
reuses the #546 param shape); AlertEvent.ansible_run_id links a firing event to
the run it triggered
- core/alerts.py: pure alert_extra_vars() injects steward_alert_* context; on
('firing', event) with an action set, schedule _run_ansible_action (deferred
after commit, same pattern as notifications) — fires once per transition,
consecutive_failures_required is the debounce; system-triggered AnsibleRun
- alerts/routes.py: admin-only parse/validate of the action (source must be
configured, playbook must exist); operators keep editing rules, action preserved
- rules_form.html: admin-only 'On firing -> run a playbook' section
- tests: unit for alert_extra_vars; integration drives record_metric to firing
and asserts a system AnsibleRun ran the playbook with the injected var and the
event linked to it

Run form + executor now support optional params, passed as argv (never
shell-interpolated):
- extra_vars: one key=value per line -> repeated -e
- limit -> --limit; tags -> --tags
- dry-run checkbox -> --check --diff
- executor.py: pure build_ansible_command(playbook, inventory, params); start_run
gains an optional params arg (backward-compatible)
- models/ansible.py + migration 0013: nullable params JSON column
- routes.py: create_run parses + validates (extra-var lines need '='), stores
params on the run, passes to the executor
- browse.html run form: Extra vars / Limit / Tags / Dry-run fields
- run_detail.html: shows the params used
- tests/test_ansible_command.py: unit coverage of the builder; integration test
runs a real playbook with extra-var + limit + check and asserts substitution

Foundation for the Ansible automation milestone (#37) — makes the existing
manual playbook runner actually executable and the schema automation-ready.
- pyproject: [ansible] extra (full ansible package, batteries-included, pinned)
- Dockerfile: pip install .[ansible]; add openssh-client for remote runs
- models/ansible.py + migration 0012: AnsibleRun.triggered_by now nullable so
automated (alert/schedule) runs need no human actor
- ansible/routes.py + run_detail.html: show 'Triggered by' (username or 'system')
- CI: integration lane installs .[dev,ansible]; new tests/integration/
test_ansible_foundation.py runs a real connection:local playbook end-to-end,
asserts success+output, and round-trips a NULL-triggered run
No extra-vars/limit/credentials/scheduling here — those are their own #37 tasks.

Renames the Python package directory, CLI command, env var prefix,
docker-compose service/container/image, Postgres role/db, and all
visible branding. Marketing form is "Fabled Steward".
Clean break from the previous rebrand: drops the fabledscryer→roundtable
import shim in __init__.py and the FABLEDSCRYER_* env var fallback in
config.py and migrations/env.py. Env vars are now STEWARD_* only.
Heads-up for existing deployments:
- Postgres user/db renamed fabledscryer → steward in docker-compose.yml.
Existing volumes need the role/db renamed inside Postgres, or override
POSTGRES_USER/POSTGRES_DB to keep the old names.
- Host-agent systemd unit is now steward-agent.service. Existing agents
keep running under the old name; reinstall to switch.
