- Agent 1.12.0 stamps each post with sent_at; ingest compares it with the
moment the post arrived: clock_offset_s / clock_checked_at on the
registration (host_agent_003), and a clock_off_secs metric (either way)
that alert rules can watch. Replaces the old skew log, which measured the
newest sample and was off by up to an interval.
- Settings -> Thresholds: Clock drift, 30 s warn / 5 min critical.
- Host page: 'clock 0.3s ahead' in the vitals line, toned past the warning.
- Hosts list: names hosts whose clock is off; when every reporting host is
off by about the same amount, says Steward's own clock is the likely one.

/ansible/inventory/ shows every target (address, its linked Steward host,
its groups) and every group (members, the schedules aimed at it) under a
verdict line. The whole row opens the target or group. Add target and
Add group open small dialogs; a failed add comes back with its dialog
open and what was typed. The red x leaves the rows: Delete is on the
target's or group's page, behind the confirm dialog, saying which
schedules would be left with nothing to run on.
The two list pages (/inventory/targets, /inventory/groups) are gone
with no redirect (rule 122); their URLs keep only the Add POST.

Confirm dialog (#5314):
- Every data-confirm form now asks in one native <dialog> (base.html + static/confirm.js)
instead of window.confirm.
- The question becomes the heading and what follows it the detail; the act's
button is named after the form's own button; Cancel has the focus and Esc
backs out. Optional data-confirm-title/-detail/-action/-dismiss attributes.
- All 27 existing uses work as they are. Cancelling a run says 'Keep running'.
Alerts list (#5315):
- A verdict line (what is firing, how many rules, where notifications go,
or 'notifies nobody yet' with a link) replaces the empty Active card.
- Each rule's name opens it; rows show 'last fired' and fold fire/clear into
the condition; History and Disable stay; Delete leaves the list.
- .docker-verdict becomes the shared .page-verdict.
Rule page (#5317):
- Named for the rule (title and crumb), with when it last fired and how many
changes of state it holds.
- Three sections: what it watches, when it fires (checks side by side,
seconds echoed as a duration), what happens (where notifications go, no-data,
the playbook, whose fields stay folded until ticked).
- Delete at the foot, behind the dialog, saying its history goes with it.

Service page:
- The header carries the verdict, mode, stack, image and when it was reported.
'In trouble since' shows only while the service is in trouble; once recovered,
'Last failed X ago · its logs'.
- The failure card shows only while the service is down, degraded or crash-looping.
- The tile strip and the kv card are gone.
- One Tasks table: running tasks first with CPU, memory and since when, then
Swarm's record. The node is named as its Steward host throughout, and
'N failed in 24h' sits in the caption.
Container page:
- Same shape: header verdict, a 'Last exit' card only while it is stopped
after a failing exit, set-up and I/O in one kv card, and lifecycle as a table.
- A swarm task's breadcrumb goes through its service.
Both pages:
- Resource history is the one fragment (_usage_history.html): now and peak in
cores and bytes, drawn with a floor of 1 core / 1 GiB (sparkline_svg floor=),
so idle noise draws flat.
- The container page's old % sparklines, its private _sparkline and the unused
bucket()/container_history() helpers are removed.

- #5305 "Disk page: images grouped by repository, versions folded under it"
- #5306 "Docker overview: one disk line per host linking to the Disk page"
Each `docker system df` report is now also recorded as metrics, with the host
as the resource: disk_total_bytes, its parts, and disk_reclaimable_bytes. An
alert rule can watch them. The Disk page starts with the hosts side by side,
showing how much each grew over the selected range with a line of it, then
gives each host its own section. An image's versions fold under its
repository, which is charged only for the layers its versions don't share.

#5303 "Swarm page laid out by node: role, resources and the tasks placed on each"
A verdict line first, then the nodes that are down or drained and the
services short of replicas, then one card per node. A node with a Steward
agent shows what its swarm tasks use against the machine's cores and memory,
service by service. A node without one lists Swarm's placement, by count.
The services table moved to the Docker overview, where it can be filtered.

- #5298 "Docker overview: verdict line; only the problem tiles that aren't zero"
- #5299 "Docker overview: swarm services as a filterable, sortable table with a Stack column"

- #5301 "Docker overview: standalone containers in one table with a Host column"
- #5302 "Service page: replicas, image, task history, resource history and logs across all its tasks"
overview.py holds the rows, filters and sort as plain functions. The filter
bar sits outside the polled fragment and the URL keeps its state. A service's
page reads every task container Steward still holds anything for, the live
ones and removed ones known by their events, so a failed task's logs are
reachable after Docker has removed it.

#5290 "Host page: the health tiles span the card's width; even spacing above Ansible":
the four tiles take equal quarters (halves on a phone) and their sparklines stretch
across them; the Monitors + Agent row drops the Agent card's own margin, so the gap
above Ansible is 1rem like every other.
#5291 "Add host opens as a dialog over the Hosts list": a native <dialog> on /hosts/,
opened by Add host or /hosts/?add=1. A name clash re-renders the list with it open,
the error and what was typed. GET /hosts/new is gone; hosts/form.html is Edit only.

Hosts list:
- CPU and Memory are their own labelled columns (#5279); a silent
agent's last readings are greyed, and Status says "agent silent for 7m".
- One uptime figure, 30 days, with 24h and 7d on hover. The SLA tab
(/hosts/uptime) repeated it and is removed (#5280; one home per fact).
- Status is a word with how long ("Down for 12m"); host_status now carries
down_since. Edit and Delete live on the host's page only (#5281).
- Figures are right-aligned with tabular digits (.table .num), not a
monospace face.
Agent fleet (#5282): its add-host form is gone, so hosts are added only on
Hosts -> Add host. That form was also the only way to get a token for a
manual curl install, so that moves to the host's Agent card as "Install
manually" (POST /fleet/<host_id>/register), shown on the fleet page as
before. "Delete" there reads "Unregister".
Add host (#5283): laid out like the add-monitor form; a name clash comes
back inline with what was typed instead of a bare text 400; the address
is optional, as the host page already allowed.

Docker panel (#5276): problems first, then the 8 busiest running
containers by CPU; the other running and the stopped fold behind one
"+N more running · M stopped" line. Containers that are not swarm tasks
read the way the Docker page reads them: CI jobs as "CI: workflow · job",
buildx builders as "BuildKit builder · name".
Monitors card (#5277): the edit/delete icon buttons and the inline add
form are gone. Each row links to its monitor's page; "Add monitor" opens
the add form filed under this host, starting from its address, with the
host in its breadcrumbs and Cancel back to it.
Agent card (#5278): Full metrics stays in view; Update, Rotate token,
Unregister agent (was "Remove") and Re-provision sit under "Manage agent".

A chart built while its cell was still being laid out could stay blank until
a window resize; it now measures and draws again after layout settles. Each
refresh rebuilds the chart (the flash), and its buckets are minutes wide, so
the widget refreshes every 5 minutes instead of every poll.

Each figure after its bars takes a fixed width, so memory figures of
different lengths no longer shift their bars. CPU and Memory headers say
"last 6h" and the note gives the slice length.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The fill bars were a share of the host's capacity, a sliver on hosts with
80 cores. Each figure now sits beside 24 bars of the last 6 hours (1h/24h
per widget), each row scaled to its own peak but never below 1 core or
1 GiB (configurable per widget), so a 0.05-core container reads flat and
a bar's height means real load. One grouped date_bin query feeds them.

View mode splits each saved row into seven, so a widget no longer carries up
to 69px of empty space below its content (Overview, SNMP). Edit mode and the
saved layout keep 70px rows. The Busiest Containers host column aligns left
like its header, its note fits one line, and the Hosts column reads Disk.

CI 8551 integration: "integer out of range" for a 2099 timestamp.
The SQL in the log showed a second problem: `CAST(epoch AS INTEGER) / 60`
compiled to `/ CAST(60 AS NUMERIC)`, i.e. decimal division. Every scrape got
its own "bucket", so the request chart and the Traefik page's sparklines
never averaged anything. The int4 cast would also overflow in 2038.
Both now use date_bin from the epoch, as host_agent/metrics_query.py does.
The integration test adds a second scrape 30 s later in the same minute and
checks that the bucket averages the totals and weights the 5xx share over
both scrapes.

#5256 "Traefik — Request chart: blank on the live dashboard; time axis and honest labels".
- "Req/s" was the average of the routers, not the total. Each scrape is now
summed over routers, then averaged per bucket (request_history).
- The 5xx share is now weighted by each router's traffic. The axis is no
longer pinned at 0–100 (suggestedMax 5).
- The x axis shows times, in the viewer's local time. The tooltip shows
both series at that time.
- A verdict line comes first: now / peak req/s and the peak 5xx share. The
figures read even if the chart doesn't.
- The blank live chart's cause is still unknown. Chart.js and
chart-colors.js both load on the dashboard. A missing library or a thrown
error is now written into the widget instead of leaving it empty, so the
cause will show on the page.

#5255 "SNMP — Devices: status in words and key readings".
- Verdict first: "All N devices answering", "ups: no reply since 14m ago",
"N of M devices not answering", or "N not polled yet".
- Devices that stopped answering come first, then those never polled, then
the rest.
- One header row: Device / Readings / Polled.
- The name is the link; the separate "detail →" is gone.
- The hollow dot is replaced by words: "no data yet", or "no reply since …;
readings are from then".
- Key readings: the first two in config order, gauges ahead of counters.
Units come from the label suffix: _centisecs as a duration, _pct, _dV as
volts, _octets as bytes total.

#5254 "Traefik — Routers: current routers only, header row, certs on the router they serve".
- Router hosts come from Traefik's API (/api/http|tcp/routers), read
best-effort on each scrape. An optional api_url overrides it; the default
is /api on the metrics host. A certificate's expiry then shows in a TLS
column on the router whose host it covers. An expiring one makes that
router a problem, graded by Settings → Thresholds.
- Only current: routers and certificates must have appeared in the last
three scrapes. Certificates are upserted by serial and never deleted, so
renewed or retired ones lingered on the widget.
- Widget order: verdict, problem routers with the reason, then the busiest
healthy routers under one header (Router / Req/s / Bandwidth / p95 / TLS).
A missing value shows "—".
- If the API is unreachable, expiring certificates are listed after the
routers, not above them.
- The page splits certificates into served (with the routers using each,
plus SANs) and "No longer served".
- Latest row per router: an index walk (recursive CTE + LATERAL) replaces
DISTINCT plus a query per router.

The widget names the busiest container in a verdict ("Busiest: tdarr on
VDNT-Docker03, 1.6 of 8 cores."), then a fixed-layout table (container,
host, CPU in cores, memory in bytes) with each figure's share drawn as
shading behind it: of the host's cores, and of the memory limit or the
host's memory.
The numbers were already rendered, but each row grew as wide as its longest
name. A grid item won't shrink below its content, so Gitea CI container
names pushed the figures out of view and the cell scrolled sideways. Names
now come from display_name(): a swarm task by its service (no slot number),
an Actions job container as "CI: <workflow> · <job>". They cut off with …
and show whole on hover.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A verdict line (services healthy · other containers running · failed in
24h), then "Needs a look": troubled services with why (crash-looping, N of
M running), since when and the last error, and troubled containers
(unhealthy, restarting, exited with an error, out of memory). Then "Failed
in the last 24h" by name, with how often, when and where. Then the healthy
rest one line each (name · hosts · replicas) in as many columns as the
widget is wide, collapsing after 40 to "+N more healthy".
Per-container CPU is gone from this widget: Busiest Containers owns it.

#5212 "Plain labels: no raw ids, scopes, metric keys or unexplained jargon",
batch 3:
- Disk page: each tile says what it holds. "Writable layers" becomes
"Container files" and Build cache says it is safe to clear. Shared is
"Shared with other images" with a tooltip, and "dangling" is gone.
Untagged images show by id instead of "<none>", a capped list says
"The 50 largest of N images", and each host shows "as of" its report.
- Traefik: an expired certificate reads "expired 12 days ago", not "-12
days" (cert_left). The Traffic empty state knows whether the access log
is on: off points to Settings → Plugins → Traefik; on says to check the
mounted log path.
- Moments use |ago with an exact UTC tooltip: UniFi last seen, alarms,
events, speed test and DPI; AI token last used.
- Settings: the Auth tab is "Authentication" like its breadcrumb, plugin
fields read "Metrics URL" not metrics_url (field_label), a source's pull
interval is "every 1h", and the last report time drops the ISO "T".

#5212 "Plain labels: no raw ids, scopes, metric keys or unexplained jargon",

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

- Uptime page and widget: worst 24h uptime first, then 7d and 30d; hosts
with no uptime yet last.
- Agent panel and fleet widget: last seen as "3m ago", not a clock time.
- SNMP: a device is "Reachable" only while it answered within the last 3
polls; older readings say "No answer" with their age, and every device
says when it was last read (was: reachable whenever any reading existed).
- Traefik: a router missing from 3 scrapes in a row is listed apart as no
longer reported, by when it was last seen, instead of keeping its last

failing_services filtered on `(service_trouble(s) or 9) <= 2`; a crash loop

#5209 "Docker views: readable names, CPU/memory in cores and bytes, failures
listed with since-time" (milestone 477 "UI problems first").
- A swarm task reads as its service and slot ("codex_db · 1", or the node
for a global service), with the raw name in the title: Docker page, host
panel, busiest widget, container detail.
- CPU reads in cores (Docker's 100% = one core), toned by its share of the
host's CPUs from the agent's per-core series. Memory reads in bytes, against
a limit only when one is really set (Docker reports host RAM otherwise).
- Exit 137/143 without an OOM kill is a stop, not a failure: no
exited_nonzero, no crash-loop death, no "failed (24h)", dim exit code.
- "Failed (24h)" is a list (Docker page #failures, linked from the widget
and the tile): plain containers by their deaths, swarm services by Swarm's
failed tasks; a second manager's copy of a task death counts once.
- Failing swarm services lead Needs attention; services sort problems first
with since-times on the page, the widget and the Swarm page; nodes that
are down or drained sort first.
- Busiest widget orders by a 5-minute CPU average so the list holds still.
- Host panel: a table, problems first with what is wrong and since when;
replaced swarm tasks hidden and counted.
- Container detail: node hostname, I/O labelled "since start", Restarts
hidden for swarm tasks with a note on where task failures are.
- Widget names: "Docker — Services & failures", "Docker — Busiest containers".

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.

- prune_by_age(column) registers a time-series column with the hourly cleanup;
Traefik (metrics, access summaries, global stats) and UniFi (WAN, client,
WLAN, DPI, events, alarms, speedtests) register theirs in setup().
- Alert events join monitor results and Ansible runs on data.retention_days,
read from Settings each run; Ansible run log files older than it are deleted.
- audit.retention_days (365) keeps the audit log longer, set on Settings > General.
- metric_series.points reads metrics.retention.raw_days, so the chart's
raw/rollup seam is where the rollup put it (RAW_DAYS removed).

MAX_SAMPLES_PER_INGEST was 2 while agent 1.10 drains a backlog five samples a
post, so the server dropped the oldest three of every such post. Posts now
answer in 0.4-1.3 s on dev, including the boot cleanup window, so five fit
the agent's 10 s. A test holds the server cap at or above the agent's.

Agent 1.11.0 sends finished_at (State.FinishedAt) and reads a stopped
container's logs once per stop: since its cursor if it was being read, or
its last 200 lines when first seen already crashed (non-zero exit, stopped
in the last 10 min). Cursors and finals are forgotten once a container is no
longer listed.
Ingest gives a container first seen already exited non-zero a die event, and
dates die/stop events by finished_at when the agent sends it.

persist_host_docker marks docker.status, .swarm, .disk, .logs, .metrics,

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- BACKOFF_CAP 300 → 60: Steward reads a host stale after 180 s, so an agent
backing off to five minutes read stopped long after Steward came back
(lesson #4355: a check-in inherits its call's backoff).
- A POST carries at most five samples: the oldest four buffered plus the
new one, the rest held for the next post. A backlog drains a few at a
time instead of in one post Steward cannot write before the timeout
(the loop measured in #5149).
- Per-container Docker work has a 20 s deadline over the whole fan-out.
Past it the sample reports docker_status "error" ("N of M containers
not read within 20 s") and no list: a partial list would read as
removals, and a record without its inspect as restarts.
- /system/df is asked every 600 s rather than every sample; Steward keeps
the last answer.

Measured on dev (f802c9f): every dropped ingest carried samples=21,
metric_rows≈4,200 and never finished the INSERT flush inside the agent's
10 s ("completed: parse=0.1s"). The rollback left the agent's ring buffer
full, so each later post was the same size and failed the same way: no
host's metrics have landed since.
An ingest now keeps the newest MAX_SAMPLES_PER_INGEST (5) samples by ts,
logs how many it left out, and returns samples_dropped. The older samples
are the ones the ring buffer would have overwritten anyway. Why the
database writes so few rows a second is not yet known; the slow-ingest
line now measures it on a post that finishes.

- Agent: started_at comes from inspect's State.StartedAt (nanoseconds
trimmed; Docker's zero time is "never started"), not the list's Created,
so a restarted container's uptime counts from its restart.
- A rising restart_count between two snapshots emits a "restart" event
("restart #3", or "3 restarts, now #5"), said instead of a start; a
restart then a death gives both. A count that falls (recreated under the
same name) says nothing. The timeline draws it as ↻.
- Network and disk I/O count what the kernel calls physical: interfaces
not under /sys/devices/virtual/net (bridges, docker0, veth, vxlan, tun),
block devices with a device behind them (not dm, md, zram), so a byte is
not counted twice. Where /sys calls everything virtual (an agent in LXC)
the name-filtered set is kept rather than reporting no traffic.
- Agent tests updated for #5152's (status, detail, containers) and
(is_manager, topology) shapes; the no-Docker disk test now states the
case it was passing for by accident.

The agent (1.9.0) said nothing when Docker could not be asked and nothing
when Docker had no containers, so Steward could tell neither apart from the
other, and kept a host's last containers on screen as running either way.
- Agent: collect_docker returns (status, detail, containers). "ok" sends
docker: [] when there are none; "unavailable" (no socket, nothing
listening) and "error" (permission, timeout, bad answer) say why.
collect_swarm says whether /info answered, and a node that is not a
manager sends swarm_manager: false. A failed /info says nothing.
- Ingest: an empty docker list is a snapshot; the newest sample's status
goes to the Docker plugin with the rest.
- docker_host_status (docker_011): per host, status, detail, since and
last report. A host that never had Docker gets no row.
- An "ok" empty snapshot reaps the host's containers; an error keeps them.
swarm_manager: false drops the host's swarm services and nodes.
- Docker page: a "Docker not answering" card names each such host, why,
and since when; its containers read as stale. Duplicate header comment
in rows.html removed.

The first instrumented drop on dev read "dropped after 10.0s … (completed:
parse=0.1s)": the whole stall is inside record_metrics. It now marks its
three steps (flush of the rows, the rule and state reads, the per-sample
evaluation) on the caller's phases, and the drop line carries the request's
samples and metric row count.

Every host-agent ingest in the service logs ends at ~10 s with no status:
the agent gives up at its urlopen timeout (agent.py) before Steward answers.
Nothing says which part of ingest is slow, so this measures it:
- each phase (parse, metrics with alert evaluation, docker persist,
commit) is timed, and a request past 2 s logs one line with the phases,
sample count, metric rows, containers and log lines;
- a request the server drops when the agent hangs up (CancelledError) logs
how long it ran and which phases completed, then re-raises.
The fix follows once the logs say which phase it is.

Traefik: routers are graded from their latest scrape (router_state: crit on
any real 5xx share, warn on p95 past the latency critical cutoff or a high
4xx share). Failing and slow routers lead as cards that say why; healthy
ones fold into one table that stays open or shut across polls. Proxy
counts are stat tiles; certificates are graded by Settings -> Thresholds
(tls_days).
UniFi: WAN health is a stat strip (latency graded by the thresholds),
devices carry status dots, event categories and firewall actions are
badges, the alarm count reuses .count-badge (renamed from .nav-count).
SNMP: each device wears a status badge and its readings are stat tiles.
Agent fleet: the table comes first, with a Status column (Reporting /
Silent / Never reported, by the host page's stale_after_seconds), silent
agents first, hosts linked, last seen as |ago.
Audit: entries name their entity (one query per type, steward/audit/
service.py) and link it; something deleted since keeps the name its entry
recorded and says "(deleted)".
Tokens: charts read colours through chart-colors.js (stewardColor resolves
a token to the rgb the browser computed; Chart.js defaults take the page's
text and border colours), so host, history, Traefik and SNMP charts drop
their hex. Template hex colours reach 0 (HEX_CEILING = 0), the last rgba
pills go, and heavy weights (600/700/bold, 60 of them) become 500, the
house pair being 400/500; a guard keeps templates there.

The Docker page opens with a "Needs attention" card: every container
with something wrong, worst problem first — restarting, crash-looping,
unhealthy, OOM-killed, exited non-zero — each with what it does ("is
restarting and keeps dying · exit 1 · since 8m ago"), linked to its page.
It is ranked by the same code as the MCP tools: container_problems,
problem_since and the per-container ranking move from mcp_tools into
service.py (ranked_containers, needs_attention), and mcp_tools' _rows and
findings now read them from there.
Counts follow as stat tiles: needs attention, unhealthy, restarting (or
crash-looping), running, stopped, stale, services, hosts.
A container whose last report is older than the host agent's staleness
window (stale_after_seconds, 180 s by default) carries a Stale badge with
when it last reported, instead of a live-looking green dot.
The per-container CPU and memory history columns are gone from the
overview, and with them one history query per container per refresh; the
container's own page keeps its charts. With nothing left to range over,
the time-range control goes too, and the page now refreshes on the poll
interval. CPU and memory are graded by Settings → Thresholds rather than
50/80 and 70/90 written into the template.

The host page's vitals strip becomes its health header: Live or Stale,
then one sentence — "Memory 93% is past its critical threshold", "Every
reading is within its thresholds", or, for a stale host, "No report since
20m ago; the readings below are from then" — and last seen as |ago. CPU,
memory, root disk and load per core follow as stat tiles graded by
Settings → Thresholds, with their sparklines.
The full-metrics page drew its bars and gauges at a hard-coded 70/90
(temperatures 70/85) while every other page used the configured cutoffs
(80/90 by default), so a 75 % CPU was amber here and fine everywhere else.
bar() now takes the metric kind and colours its .meter-fill through
status_class; gauges, temperatures and per-core bars do the same.
The host's monitor rows move onto the Monitors list's shapes: a status dot,
the name linking to the monitor's page, Ping/TCP/DNS/HTTP, pill-up/
pill-down, latency and uptime through status_class, labelled icon buttons.
HEX_CEILING drops to 54.
New formatting.worst_reading(readings, thresholds) picks the reading
furthest past its cutoff, the first of equals winning.

#5099 "A name containing a quote runs script when an admin clicks Delete".
Inline handlers like onclick="return confirm('Delete {{ rule.name }}?')" are
HTML-decoded before the JavaScript is parsed, so autoescaping did not stop a
name such as x');fetch(…);// from running.
- Every prompt (22 handlers, plus the docker prune and token revoke ones)
is now data-confirm="…", read through dataset by one submit listener in
base.html; nothing rendered is parsed as JavaScript.
- The remaining inline handlers take integers only (|int), and the time
range buttons pass this.dataset.range.
- tests/test_inline_handlers.py fails on any {{ }} in an inline handler that
is not |int, with a self-test; tests/_templates.py is the one template
walker the template guards now share.

#5093 "Shared format filters and status_class driven by Settings → Thresholds".
- steward/core/formatting.py: human_bytes (binary units), human_rate,
human_duration (two largest units), ago (a <time> titled with the absolute
UTC time) and status_class(value, kind, thresholds) -> ok/warn/crit/unknown,
which raises on a kind the thresholds don't name.
- app.py registers them as the bytes, rate, duration and ago filters and the
status_class global; threshold_style is now graded by status_class (and caps
its weight at 500).
- Replaces the copies: docker's _human_bytes/_human_uptime, core alerts'
_duration, the host-agent fmt_bps/fmt_bytes macros, the Traefik and UniFi
byte-rate arithmetic, the swarm-failures ago macro and two uptime spans.
- Tests: a table per helper, and every template compiled against the app's
filters, so an unknown filter fails CI rather than a page.

#5092 "Tokens". base.html's inline palette was its own: white text on the
gold button (1.81:1), a red at 3.26:1 on a card, a warning yellow at hue
42 beside the gold accent at 46, a lavender page title, serif labels at
13px and weights up to 700.
- static/theme.css is design system 6's generated sheet (FabledSword + the
Steward accent). static/steward.css is base.html's stylesheet moved out,
with :root now aliases onto those tokens (--bg, --text-muted, --green…)
so every template keeps rendering; it states no colour of its own.
- Status text colours are Steward overrides recorded in the design system
(tokens 182-184): success #5FB87A, warning #E08A3C, error #EC7A6C. The
house -fg mixes read "up" as grey hint text (dE 8.2) and warning as the
accent (dE 11.5); these are >= 4.5:1 on page, card, hover and their own
15-25% tints. --orange is now the midpoint of warning and error.
- Primary button and active range button: dark text on gold (7.82:1).
Danger button on the house destructive fill. Badges and alerts take the
-fg colour on a tint; the gold badge uses --fs-accent-fg.
- Type: Inter body, Fraunces only for page titles and h1/h2, JetBrains
Mono for code; section and widget titles become the tiny caps label in
the body face; weights capped at 500.
- Removed: the lavender title and share-view gradient, #606080, and the
undefined --card-bg, --accent-faint, --accent-bg, --bg-alt, --border-low
and --row-alt (now real tokens); the dead settings/index.html.
- Guards (tests/test_style_tokens.py): every var(--x) used is defined;
steward.css states no colour or weight over 500; hex colours in
templates may only go down (ceiling 75, from 81 before this change),
each with a self-test that it can fail.

CI 8325: NOW - 10 min is 11:50, not 09:50; and rule_fields' refusal lists
the catalog in order, so seconds_since_seen goes last.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

#5061 "Metric catalog belongs to what emits: plugins register their
metrics; names match what is recorded".
- The static METRIC_CATALOG is gone. metric_catalog() is core's own sources
(the four monitor types and "steward", the app's open_fds/open_fds_pct,
which were recorded but never offered) plus each loaded plugin's
get_alert_metrics() export. A disabled plugin's sources leave the picker.
- traefik offers what it records: error_rate_4xx_pct and error_rate_5xx_pct.
The old "error_rate" was never recorded, so a rule on it could not fire.
- tests/core/test_metric_catalog.py walks every MetricBatch.add /
record_metric call (traefik's tuple loop included) and fails on a recorded
metric the catalog lacks; it shows on a synthetic writer that it can fail.

#5060 "One evaluation path: record_metrics batch API; host-agent ingest
evaluates rules".
- record_metrics(session, rows) writes metric rows and evaluates the rules
that watch them, reading rules, states and maintenance windows once per
batch. Each rule sees its key's samples oldest first, so an agent catching
up after an outage counts consecutive checks as they happened.
- Host-agent ingest now goes through it. Before, it wrote plugin_metrics
directly and no host_agent rule could ever fire. The catalog gains the
per-mount disk_used_pct ("<host>:<mount>").
- MetricBatch gathers a transaction's samples; the docker ingest, traefik,
unifi, snmp, monitor and self-monitor writers record one batch each instead
of a rule query per sample.
