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.

MCP-7 #4971 "Monitoring-config write tools: monitors, alert rules, acks,
maintenance".
The validation the forms did inline (or not at all) moves to the services,
and both the routes and the tools call it, so bad input is refused the same
way with the same reason:
- monitors/service: monitor_fields, build_config, normalise_target. Port
1-65535, status 100-599, timeout 1-60, method GET/HEAD/POST, headers an
object of strings, a key the type does not take is named. The forms now
answer 400 with the reason instead of redirecting silently or a 500.
- alerts/service: METRIC_CATALOG and SOURCE_MODULES, resources_for,
metrics_for, rule_fields (source, resource and metric from the same
choices the rule form offers), add_rule, acknowledge, window_fields.
Tools: create_monitor, update_monitor (config merged over the stored one;
a rename warns about rules still watching the old name),
set_monitor_enabled, create_alert_rule, update_alert_rule,
acknowledge_alert, create_maintenance_window (duration or end),
end_maintenance_window (ends one in progress, cancels an upcoming one) —
operator. delete_monitor, delete_alert_rule — admin. get_alert_rule_options
— viewer. Every write is audited as "<user> via MCP".

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.
