The backup file (#5672 "Backup file: pg_dump of config + audit + alert
history, the secret key and a manifest"): steward-<UTC>.tar holding a
pg_dump --format=custom with metrics', check results' and Docker/Traefik/
UniFi rows left out, the secret key, and a manifest. Every table is named
KEPT or EXCLUDED in steward/backup/contents.py, and a guard test fails on a
new one. The image gains postgresql-client-17 (approved, System 180).
The restore (#5674 "Restore: `steward restore` and a CI test that a dump
brings Steward back"): pg_restore in its three sections. Between data and
constraints, a kept row pointing at a left-out row gets what its foreign
key's ON DELETE says (alert_events.ansible_run_id is cleared). It refuses
a non-empty database unless --wipe, and puts the backup's key in
/data/secret.key. Migrations run on Steward's next start.
`steward` stays the server command: it is now a click group that serves
when given no subcommand.
The publish smoke step backs up the booted image's database, restores it
into a second one, checks a marker setting came back and plugin_metrics
is empty, and starts Steward on it.

The UniFi password sat in plugin.unifi in plain text: SECRET_KEYS covers
whole settings, and a plugin's settings are one dict. Saving the plugin's
settings page also wiped it, since the password box is never filled back
in and its blank value was stored.
- A plugin field whose name holds password, secret or token is a
credential (is_plugin_secret). set_setting seals it inside the dict,
every read opens it, startup seals any plaintext left from before, and
the undecryptable-secrets banner names it as plugin.<name>.<field>.
- The settings page uses the same test for its password boxes, and a blank
box keeps the saved value.

- tests/test_breadcrumbs.py: the Prometheus target list is its section's
own top page, like SNMP's, so it carries no trail.
- The integration test's exposition has label braces, which str.format read
as fields: the fake scrape raised, the target was recorded down and no
series landed. It substitutes the counter with replace() now.
- docs/plugins/prometheus.md: adding a target, filtering, how series are
named and stored, alerting, and the Fabled Archives recipe.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A bundled prometheus plugin, on by default like the other protocol plugins.
Targets are rows edited on its page: address, bearer token (encrypted),
interval, keep/leave-out name patterns and a series cap. Steward does the
filtering; the endpoint serves everything (Archives' ruling).
- A 5 s tick scrapes due targets at once, each within a 30 s deadline, and
writes the outcome to its row and its series through record_metrics, so
alert rules can watch any of them.
- Gauges are stored as they are; counters (and a histogram's or summary's
_sum/_count) as <name>_per_sec rates from the second scrape. Buckets and
quantiles are skipped. A labelled series is stored under
"<target>:k=v,…". Each target also records is_up, scrape_ms, series_kept
and series_capped.
- Pages: targets not answering first, with why; a target's series grouped
by metric with their newest values; a chart per series; the editor with
Test, which scrapes once and says what would be stored.
- The counter-to-rate keeper moves to steward/core/counter_rates.py; SNMP's
RateKeeper now scales its rate on top of it.
- metric_value reads Prometheus's _seconds as a span and _per_sec as a rate.
- The catalog guard treats an empty list as a dynamic source (snmp,
prometheus), as the rule form does.

steward/core/prometheus.py parses the 0.0.4 exposition into families keyed
by name, each with its declared TYPE, so a scraper can tell a counter from a
gauge. A histogram or summary owns its _bucket/_sum/_count samples. Label
values are unescaped, and commas or braces inside quotes stay part of the
value. NaN and +/-Inf are read, timestamps are ignored, and a malformed
line is skipped. Traefik's parse_prometheus is now a thin reshaping of it.

At 20:25-20:39Z the NFS storage under steward_db slowed badly (checkpoint
sync 4.6 s, then 70.7 s with one file at 21.9 s, against the usual 0.002 s).
Ingest commits stalled past the agent's 10 s timeout and were dropped, and
last_seen_at, written in that same transaction, went with them. Agents
posting every few seconds read as silent for 3 minutes, and "Agent offline"
fired and emailed for all three hosts.
Ingest now notes each agent's arrival in memory right after the (read-only)
registration lookup, before any write; seconds_since_seen counts from the
later of last_seen_at and that arrival.

The Alerts widget (/alerts/widget) is shaped like every widget: a verdict
("2 firing, 1 silent." / "Nothing firing: all 12 rules are quiet."), then
what is firing or silent with its reading now, what the rule fires on and
since when, then what someone acknowledged and who; a line when alert
email failed in the last 7 days or is retrying (outbox.alert_trouble),
linking admins to Settings -> System; the quiet rules counted, a covering
rule once. It sits beside the Overview in the recommended layout (6x4
each).
The Overview's "+N more" line pointed at the removed /status/; alerts now
link to /alerts/ and monitors to /monitors/.

#5509 "Delivery you can see: each alert's email state in history, and
outgoing email on Settings -> System" (milestone 501).
- Alerts -> History: an alert's email reads from the outbox (#5506):
"gathering" with when it sends, "sending", "retrying" with the attempt,
next try and the server's last answer, "sent", or "failed" naming each
reader it didn't reach and why (outbox.delivery / email_states). Events
from before the outbox keep what they recorded. The Notified column
shows once an alert has a queued email.
- Settings -> System gets "Outgoing email": every email of the last 7
days not yet sent, failures first, then the longest retrying, with
recipient, kind, state and last error, and a count of what was sent.
Failures and anything still retrying after 5 minutes lead the page's
verdict (outbox.outgoing).
- get_alert_history (MCP) adds `email`: the same delivery state.

Run 8942 failed this test alone (118 passed): it read the row back in a
second asyncio.run, and the app's pooled connection belonged to the
first, closed loop. The behaviour held ("The alerts this email carried
were deleted"); the settled row is now read from attempt's own result.

#5508 "Every other email through the outbox: weekly report, invites,
password resets, and the test buttons" (milestone 501).
- outbox.send_each queues one email per reader (claimed, so the sender
doesn't take it too) and tries them at once, for a page that answers
with what happened; outbox.said words the result. attempt takes a cfg
for a test of the form's unsaved settings and returns the settled rows.
- Weekly report (scheduled and Send now) and invites: queued, tried at
once; one the server couldn't take yet is retried for an hour. An invite
that didn't go shows its link with the reason, as before.
- Password reset: queued in the reset link's own transaction; the sender
delivers it on its next tick.
- Settings -> Notifications test email and a rule's Send test: queued and
recorded with retry=False, tried once (System 156 ruling).
- Removed mail.send, notifications._send_email and _smtp_send_sync;
dispatch_notifications is webhook only. A guard asserts only the outbox
(and smtp_open itself) opens an SMTP connection, with a self-test.
Also fixes run 8941 (#5507's integration test): its Also-send-to
addresses were "@test", which is_real_address rightly drops; they are
example.com now.

#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.

#5470 "pysnmp-lextudio is deprecated: every startup logs a RuntimeWarning".
Dependency change: the [snmp] extra now installs `pysnmp>=7.1` instead of
`pysnmp-lextudio>=6.2`. pysnmp is the same lextudio lineage under its maintained
name; the 7.1 floor is because below 7 the name is the abandoned 4.x line with
no asyncio API. The poller already finds either API shape (_api(), the engine
close probes), so no code changes; its docstring now names what the image ships.

#5469 "Settings → System: table sizes and what the last cleanup removed".
- Storage: each table's size on disk (pg_total_relation_size, indexes and TOAST
included) and Postgres's row estimate (reltuples), largest first, the 15
largest by name and the rest summed, under the database's total size. Read
from the catalog only, never by counting rows.
- Last cleanup: when it ran, how long it took, and what each pass removed (each
aged table, run log files, the metric and Docker rollups, the log ring), or
"Nothing was past its window". run_cleanup now returns that summary and keeps
it as the cleanup.last_run setting, as reports.last_sent_at does; cleanup_secs
(#5467) is recorded from the same figure.
- A hint links to where each retention window is set.

#5468 "Log search by service name: searching "steward_app" refuses because every
deploy makes a new container name".
search_container_logs(container="steward_app") was refused, because no container
carries the service's own name and five task containers partly matched. Now a
service's name reaches every task container Steward holds anything for, live and
removed (docker_svc.service_containers, as the service page's logs already do),
so one search spans deploys. Each match carries the slot and task_id that wrote
it, and the reply names the service and how many tasks were searched. A container
named exactly what was asked still takes precedence. A miss that partly matches
task containers now names their services.

The `when` filter returns a <time> element, so title="{{ at|when }}" wrote raw
markup into the attribute. That broke the hover text, and in the rule form's
metric preview (#5475) it leaked a stray `">` into the page. `ago` already
carries the exact time as its own tooltip, so both places drop the title.
Also fixes#5467's page test, which needed the escaped apostrophe.

#5467 "Steward's own health: metrics, rules can watch them, a page that shows them".
The self-monitor tick now records, under source "steward", resource "process":
ingest_posts / ingest_failed / ingest_slowest_ms (the host-agent posts since the
last tick, tallied in steward/core/health.py), db_roundtrip_ms (a timed SELECT 1),
and unwatched_secs (the gap before this tick past watch.GAP_S, from Steward's own
last sample). The hourly cleanup records cleanup_secs. The open-file pair is still
recorded, and is now only skipped on its own where /proc is absent. All of these
are in CORE_METRICS, so an alert rule can watch them under "Steward itself".
Settings → System (/settings/system/, admin) shows a verdict first (failed posts,
a gap in watching, open files near the limit), then each measure now and over the
last day, with a sparkline scaled to its own peak.

#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.

#5487 "MCP: edit inventory group membership". Group membership decides which
hosts a group alert rule covers, and the MCP could only read it. The new
operator tool takes a group and lists to add and remove, each a target's
name or id or the Steward host it is linked to; an unknown name refuses the
whole change. It answers with the group's targets after and the alert rules
covering the group (whose per-host rules follow within a minute), and audits
as ansible.group.updated by "<user> via MCP", as the Inventory page does.

#5483 "Alerts list: a covering rule's hosts start collapsed behind a toggle;

its own tbody; its hosts sit in another, hidden until "N hosts" is pressed.

#5475 "Rule form: pick the host, then its part; metrics that part reports;
a link to groups; a preview of the metric", from the operator's review of
the New rule page: hosts and their parts shared one long picker.
- Host agent rules pick a Host, then a Part: "The whole host", then its
mounts, CPU cores, disks, interfaces and sensors under a heading each,
cores in number order. A part that reports nothing a rule can watch
(an interface's traffic) isn't offered.
- The Metric list holds what the picked resource reports, in catalog order.
- Under it, a preview: the reading now, and the last 24 h low to high with
an hourly sparkline drawn from zero (UI ruling 8), read from one series.
- The group picker links to Ansible > Inventory to make a group, in a new
tab, and re-reads the groups when the tab comes back into view.
- Picking a host or part swaps the pickers alone (/alerts/api/rule_target);
picking a metric swaps the preview (/alerts/api/metric_preview).
- A rule's own resource and metric stay on offer after they go quiet.

DISTINCT over plugin_metrics, and Postgres has no skip scan, so it read every
host-agent sample; every rule page, source swap, rule save and MCP rule call
paid it. resources_for and metrics_for now read plugin_metric_latest, one
row per series, which lists the same names. A test fails if either reads
plugin_metrics again.

#5466 "Send test: check a rule's delivery from the rule". A rule's page gets
a Send test button (operator role), and MCP gets send_test_alert. Each sends
a TEST alert for that rule now, by email to everyone who gets alerts and by
webhook. The alert carries the rule's name and condition, at the latest
reading of what it watches; a rule covering hosts uses its first host. The
result for each channel shows under the button, or "Nothing is set up to
send to". Nothing fires, no event is written, and the test is audited as
alert_rule.tested. An alert with no reading now says "has no reading yet"
instead of "is None".
Docs: alerting.md also gains the burst email from #5465 "One email per burst

#5465 "One email per burst of alerts". When a switch reboots, every host's

Alert email now waits 30 s from the first alert: each recipient then gets one
message listing every alert in the window, oldest first, in their own zone
("[Steward] 3 alerts: 2 firing, 1 resolved"). One alert alone keeps its
usual email. Webhooks still post per alert, at once. Every alert's event
records the email's outcome. A burst held when Steward stops is not sent;
the alerts stay on the record and on the Alerts page.

#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.

#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.

Run now set last_run_at to the click, and a schedule's next turn counts
from last_run_at, so a manual run of the nightly prune at 14:00 moved
every later run to 14:00. Operator ruling: "run now shouldn't change the
schedule it should just run the playbook and leave the schedule as it
was."
Run now no longer touches last_run_at. It still records the run as
last_run_id, so the list shows it and a firing during it is skipped.

_DueTracker counted a task that had never run from 0 on the loop clock,
which is host uptime, so every run_on_startup=False task (hourly data
cleanup with the Docker log prune, the weekly report check, alert
reconcile, agent age, Ansible schedules) fired on the first tick after
each deploy, while agents were flushing their backlog. Agent ingest was
slow or dropped for a few minutes after every deploy.
start_scheduler now calls tracker.begin(): such a task is first due one
interval after the loop starts.

Each firing stored last_run_at = the moment the ~60 s loop noticed it,
and the next was due a whole interval after that, so every firing's
lateness carried into the next: Nightly Docker Prune moved from 05:44:45
to 05:47:05 over six days.
A firing now stores its due slot, the latest last_run_at + k * interval
not after now (due_slot), for both a launch and a skipped firing. Missed
slots after an outage are skipped, not run in a burst.

check_interval_s was `m.check_interval_seconds or None`, so a monitor

tcp_check swallowed every exception and icmp_check returned on a
non-zero exit without a reason, so every down ICMP/TCP monitor stored
error_msg NULL and the Monitors page and MCP showed it down with no why.
Each failure now names its cause: "No reply within 2 s", "Connection
refused on port N", "No answer on port N within 5 s", "Can't resolve
<name>: ...", the OS error, or ping's own first stderr line. An ICMP
check that fell back to TCP says so, and a ping that outlives its
timeout is killed rather than left running.

When a silent series' sample also moved the rule (fired, resolved), the
resume and the transition were two events: the resume from the
pre-evaluation state at ingest time, the transition at the sample's
time. Ties sort by a random id, and the resume's "→ inactive" landed
after "→ firing", so the history read "silent, firing, back to normal"
at once and the episode closed while the alert was firing.
_track_samples now only clears the mark and returns its note; the first
sample's evaluation records one event from no_data to wherever that
sample took the rule ("firing" or "resolved" notification), or back to
the state it was in ("data_resumed", still only when notify_no_data).
Also fixes the #5441 integration test: its rule needs a recorded
resource to target (CI 8878).

After Steward or its database was down, every agent's age and every
series' last sample were old, so all agent-offline rules fired and all
rules went no-data at once, clearing a minute later. With per-account
alert email that would have mailed everyone a dozen notices per restart.
A periodic job now ticks a Watch (steward/core/watch.py) once it has
reached the database; the Watch says since when runs have been unbroken
(process start, or the end of a gap over 120 s). seconds_since_seen and
the no-data sweep count silence from no earlier than that, so a source
must stay quiet while Steward is watching before it counts as silent.

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.

Step #5428 "Account page: change your own password" of milestone 497
"Passwords: change your own, and reset it by email". A Password section
in the page's one form, for local accounts: current, new, again. Blank
keeps the password; a new one signs out every other browser
(sessions_since) and keeps this one. A wrong current password counts
toward the login throttle. Audited as account.password_changed.

#5207 "UniFi Overview tab: func.strftime is SQLite-only": the WAN and
client sparklines bucketed with strftime('%s'), which Postgres lacks, so
/plugins/unifi/rows failed. Traefik's date_bin bucket moves to
core/time_range.time_bucket and both plugins use it. Devices list offline
and failing first, and a state other than online is named (Upgrading,
Adopting, Heartbeat missed...) instead of drawn as Down.

#5427 "A password reset doesn't end the sessions already signed in with
the old password": users.sessions_since (migration 0038) is set on reset;
refresh_session_user ends a session whose login_at is earlier. An admin
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.

Operator review of the Account page: two sections with two different
save buttons, one stuck to the next card and one beside a squeezed hint.
- Account: time zone and Email are one form; POST /account/ saves both,
nothing unless all of it is valid. /account/email is gone.
- Users › account: Name and Email are one form; the rename route also
saves the email switches. /settings/users/<id>/email is gone.
- The Email section is a plain section now (email_section); its hint sits
under the switches, names the zone as the picker does, and links
Notifications only for an admin.
- apply_email_form leaves a switch the form doesn't carry as it is.
