+## Remote dev instance
+
+For a long-lived instance on a remote server that tracks the `dev` CI line, use `compose.deploy.yml`. It pulls the published image (`git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/steward:dev`) rather than building, runs no source bind-mounts, and persists data in named volumes.
+
+**One-time prerequisite — registry push token (on the Git host).** CI publishes the image, so the FabledSteward repo needs a push credential. The injected `GITHUB_TOKEN` lacks `write:package`, so create a Forgejo token scoped **`read:package` + `write:package`** and add it as the repo Actions secret **`REGISTRY_TOKEN`**. Until this exists, the `publish` CI job 401s and no `:dev` image is produced.
+
+**Standup (on the server):**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Authenticate to the registry (read:package token is enough to pull)
+docker login git.fabledsword.com -u <user>

+# CI Requirements — Steward

+
+## Runtime image
+
+git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/ci-python:3.14
+
+## Image deps used
+
+- python 3.14
+- ruff (analyzer for `steward/`, `plugins/`, `tests/`)
+- docker CLI (integration lane: bridge-IP discovery of the Postgres service container)
+
+## Per-job tool installs
+
+- `uv pip install --system -e '.[dev]'` (pip fallback) — in the `unit` job.
+- `uv pip install --system -e '.[dev,ansible]'` (pip fallback) — in the
+  `integration` job, which boots the real app and exercises the Ansible runner,
+  so it needs the `ansible` extra (`ansible>=10,<13`) at import time.
+
+  Steward declares its deps in `pyproject.toml`; the `[dev]` extra adds
+  `pytest` + `pytest-asyncio`. No `requirements.txt` is tracked.
+
+## Lanes
+
+- **lint** — `ruff check steward/ plugins/ tests/`, no dep install.
+- **unit** — `pytest -m "not integration"`. The whole current suite runs here:
+  it builds the app with `testing=True`, which mocks `db_sessionmaker`, so no DB
+  is touched. First-party plugins are bundled in-tree under `plugins/`, so plugin
+  unit tests import them directly — no cross-repo checkout.
+- **integration** — `pytest tests/integration -m integration` against a
+  `postgres:16-alpine` service. The single test boots the real app
+  (`create_app(testing=False)`), which runs core + every bundled plugin's
+  migrations, then round-trips the DB. This is the guard that the folded-in
+  plugin migration graph resolves.
+- **publish** — builds the runtime `Dockerfile` and pushes to the package
+  registry. Runs in `ci-builder:latest` (docker + buildx, socket auto-mounted),
+  gated on `needs: [lint, unit, integration]` so a red commit never ships an
+  image. Publishes `git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/steward:<sha>` always, plus
+  `:dev` on `dev` and `:latest` on `main` (FabledRulebook rule 46). Needs the
+  `REGISTRY_TOKEN` repo Actions secret (`read:package` + `write:package`) —
+  the injected `GITHUB_TOKEN` can't push packages.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Steward has **no frontend and no Redis/Celery** (no external workers), so there
+  is no frontend-build lane and the only service container is Postgres.
+- Integration uses Fabled-Git Actions `services:` + a socket-discovered bridge IP
+  because `act_runner` (swarm-runner v0.6+) puts services on the default bridge
+  with no embedded DNS. FabledCurator's `ci.yml` is the canonical example of the
+  pattern; Steward's is the same shape minus Redis and minus sharding.
+- The job name `integration` has no underscore — `act_runner` strips underscores
+  from job names when building service-container labels, so the `docker ps`
+  name filter uses the bare job name.
+- Migrations run via the app itself (`create_app` → `run_core_migrations`, async
+  through `asyncpg`), so the integration lane needs no separate `alembic upgrade`
+  step and no psycopg/sync driver.

+### `/mcp`: outside the blueprint pipeline
+
+`mount_mcp(app)` (`steward/mcp/server.py`) wraps `app.asgi_app`. A request to
+`/mcp` is handed to the MCP SDK's streamable-HTTP app before Quart sees it, so
+no blueprint, session cookie or `before_request` hook runs for it. Each
+request then goes through these steps:
+
+1. **Database gate.** If the database is unreachable, the request gets a 503
+   with a readable message.
+2. **Bearer resolution.** `api_tokens.resolve_token()` turns the token into a
+   `Caller` (user, effective role, token id). A missing, revoked or expired
+   token gets a 401.
+3. **Caller context.** The `Caller` and the app are set in ContextVars
+   (`steward/mcp/_context.py`). Tools read them through `current_caller()` and
+   `mcp_app()`, because Quart's `current_app` and `session` do not exist there.
+4. **Role gate.** `StewardMCPServer.refusal()` hides and refuses tools above
+   the caller's role, and plugin tools whose plugin is disabled.
+
+The SDK's session manager runs in Quart's `before_serving`/`after_serving`
+lifecycle. The server is stateless: no MCP session outlives a request. See
+[MCP server](core/mcp.md) for the security model and the tools.

+## Metric Store
+
+Every plugin and monitor records into one store keyed by (source, resource, metric):
+- `plugin_metrics` holds raw samples for `metrics.retention.raw_days` (7 by default).
+- `plugin_metric_latest` holds each key's newest value.
+- `data_cleanup` rolls raw samples older than the raw window into `plugin_metrics_hourly`, kept for `metrics.retention.rollup_days` (90 by default).
+
+Each rolled-up hour keeps three figures:
+- `value_avg`: the hour's average.
+- `value_max`: its peak.
+- `value_p95`: the level it held for all but its briefest 5%, about 3 minutes.
+
+A two-minute spike raises the peak and leaves the p95 low; an hour spent at that level raises both. Learned normals use this to tell a recurring spike from a held level. Hours rolled up before the p95 was kept have it NULL; read those as their average.
+
+### Normals and anomalies
+
+A metric a plugin registers with `learn_normal()` gets a normal per hour of the day, then per hour of the week once three weeks of history exist (`metric_norms`, relearned hourly by `metric_norms`; `steward/core/norms.py`).
+
+Every minute, `metric_anomalies` averages each learned key's last 15 minutes and compares it with the normal for that hour. A level above the usual hold ×1.25, and above the metric's floor, opens an anomaly (`steward/core/anomalies.py`):
+- `metric_anomalies` holds one row per item to review. A repeat while the row still waits joins it as another occurrence (`metric_anomaly_spans`).
+- A row is `to_review` until someone marks it `normal` or `real` (Alerts → Anomalies, or MCP `review_anomaly`). An ended row nobody reviews within `anomalies.review_days` (14) becomes `lapsed`.
+- Learning skips every hour an occurrence covers unless its anomaly was marked `normal`, so a new level is never learned without review.
+- `data_cleanup` prunes reviewed and lapsed rows at `data.retention_days`; a row still to review is never pruned.
+
+What learns a normal, and the floor each departure must clear (Settings → Thresholds → Normals, `norms.floor.*`; a floor may be a function, `floor_setting()`, read at each pass):
+
+| Kind | Metric | Floor (default) |
+|---|---|---|
+| Host CPU | `host_agent` / `cpu_pct` | 10 points |
+| Host memory | `host_agent` / `mem_used_pct` | 5 points |
+| Host load per core | `host_agent` / `load_pct` (load_1m ÷ cores × 100, recorded at ingest) | 10 points |
+| Container CPU | `docker` / `cpu_pct` (100% is one core) | 10 points of one core |
+| Container memory | `docker` / `mem_pct` (of its limit, or of host RAM when it has none) | 5 points |
+| Monitor response time | `<type>` / `response_ms` | 100 ms |
+| Router 4xx share, p95 | `traefik` / `error_rate_4xx_pct`, `latency_p95_ms` | 2 points, 50 ms |
+
+Host metrics learn with `parts=False`: the host learns, its cores (`<host>:core<N>`) don't. Disk space, a monitor that is down, an agent gone quiet and a router's 5xx share are failures and keep their fixed cutoffs.
+
+Pages grade by the normal through `anomalies.graded()` (hosts' `host_grades` and `worst_reading(normals=)`, `docker.service.usage(thresholds=, norms=)`, `monitors.service.latency_grade`): a reading past its cutoff but within its normal reads healthy and says what is usual at this hour. The host, monitor, container and Traefik pages list their anomalies with `_anomaly_card.html`.

+N is the rule's consecutive checks, M its checks to clear. An acknowledgement
+holds for as long as the breach lasts: only a resolve clears it, and a breaching
+check never sends an acknowledged alert back to firing.
+
 `RESOLVED` is transient — the evaluator writes the event and immediately sets state back to `inactive` within the same transaction. `RESOLVED` never persists as a final state in the DB.
 
+Every transition is an `AlertEvent`, the history the Alerts → History page and
+MCP `get_alert_history` read. A transition a person made carries them in
+`actor_id`: an acknowledgement (firing → acknowledged), or a rule edit, disable
+or enable that reset the alert (→ resolved, with a note such as "rule
+disabled"). Transitions caused by readings, or by Steward itself, have none.

+A rule on `host_agent` can cover **every host**, or **every host in an
+inventory group**, instead of naming one resource (#5464). Inventory groups
+are Steward's grouping system: a host is in a group through its linked
+Ansible target.
+
+A covering rule has no state of its own. Steward keeps one ordinary rule per
+covered host under it, named `<rule>: <host>`, so each host's alert keeps its
+own state, history and acknowledgement. Each minute (the `alert_reconcile`
+task), and whenever the rule is saved:
+
+- a host that has reported in the last 7 days, and is covered, gets a rule;
+- a host that is no longer covered loses its rule, and that rule's history;

+
+A host's rule is changed through its covering rule; editing, disabling or
+deleting it alone is refused. What a rule covers is fixed once it exists, but
+a group rule can move to another group. Over MCP, `create_alert_rule` takes
+`covers` ("all_hosts" or "group") and `group`, and `list_alert_rules` shows
+each covering rule's `hosts` and each host's rule's `part_of`.

+# Backups: Steward backing itself up, and coming back
+
+Steward sends a backup of itself to an S3 bucket once a day. Fabled Archives
+is the intended target. A backup is one file, and `steward restore` brings
+Steward back from it into an empty database.
+
+## What a backup holds
+
+`steward-<UTC time>.tar`, containing:
+
+| Member | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| `steward.dump` | `pg_dump --format=custom` of Steward's database |
+| `secret.key` | The key Steward's stored passwords and tokens are sealed with |
+| `manifest.json` | Format, Steward version, migration heads, time, and the tables whose rows were left out |
+
+**Kept:**
+- configuration: settings, users, API tokens, hosts, monitors, alert rules, maintenance windows, Ansible inventory and schedules, dashboards, SNMP devices, Prometheus targets, UniFi client names;
+- the audit log;
+- alert history.
+
+**Left out** (the tables come back empty and fill again as Steward runs):
+- metrics and their rollups;
+- monitor check results;
+- Docker, Traefik and UniFi history;
+- Ansible run records;
+- the email queue;
+- password-reset links.
+
+The list is `steward/backup/contents.py`. A test fails when a new table
+appears in neither list, so whoever adds a table decides.
+
+**The secret key is in the file.** That makes a restore complete on its own.
+It also means anyone holding a copy can read every password and key Steward
+keeps. Keep the bucket private.
+
+## Setting it up with Fabled Archives
+
+1. In Archives, make a backup target for Steward with an S3 key. The default
+   append-only key is enough: Steward only uploads and never deletes.
+   How long backups are kept is set on the Archives side.
+2. In Steward, open **Settings → Backups** and fill in:
+   - **Endpoint**: the S3 address Archives shows for the target, without the
+     bucket (for example `http://archives:8081`). Requests are path-style:
+     `endpoint/bucket/file`.
+   - **Bucket**: the target's bucket name.
+   - **Access key** and **Secret key**: from Archives. The secret is sealed at
+     rest; a blank box on save keeps the stored one.
+3. Press **Test the bucket**. A key that may not list ("AccessDenied") still
+   counts as reached: an append-only key can't list, and uploads work anyway.
+4. Tick **Back up every day**, pick the hour (on your clock), and save.
+   **Back up now** makes one straight away.
+
+A day missed while Steward was down is made up when it comes back. A failed
+backup is tried again an hour later, never sooner. The last 30 runs are
+listed on the page, and each one is in the audit log (`backup.made` /
+`backup.failed`).
+
+### Alert when backups stop
+
+While backups are on, Steward records two metrics under the source
+**Steward itself**, resource `backup`:
+
+| Metric | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `backup_age_secs` ("Newest backup's age") | Seconds since the last backup was sent, updated every 15 minutes |
+| `backup_bytes` ("Backup size") | The size of the last backup sent |
+
+A rule such as `backup_age_secs > 93600` (26 hours) fires when a daily backup
+has been missed.
+
+## Making a backup by hand
+
+```sh
+docker exec -u app <steward container> steward backup --to /tmp/backups
+```
+
+This writes the file and sends it nowhere. It needs the same database access
+as Steward itself.
+
+## Restoring
+
+`steward restore` writes into an **empty** database. Pass `--wipe` to drop
+everything in the database's public schema first.
+
+1. Stop Steward (scale its service to 0) so nothing writes during the restore.
+2. Download the backup file from Archives.
+3. Run the restore with the image, pointed at the database:
+
+   ```sh
+   docker run --rm \
+     -e STEWARD_DATABASE_URL=postgresql+asyncpg://steward:…@db:5432/steward \
+     -v steward_data:/data -v "$PWD":/restore \
+     git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/steward:latest \
+     steward restore /restore/steward-20261012T030000Z.tar
+   ```
+
+   - The backup's secret key is written to `/data/secret.key`.
+   - If `STEWARD_SECRET_KEY` is set instead, it must equal the backup's key,
+     or the restore stops and says so. Read the key with
+     `tar -xOf <file> secret.key`.
+4. Start Steward. On start it runs any migrations the backup is behind on.
+
+**How the restore works.** pg_restore runs in its three sections: schema,
+then data, then constraints and indexes. Between the data and the
+constraints, a kept row that points at a left-out row is put right by its
+foreign key's ON DELETE:
+- an alert event's link to an Ansible run is cleared;
+- a row whose foreign key would cascade or block is removed.
+
+pg_restore 17 writes each section as a script for psql. It runs against
+Postgres 16 with one setting line dropped (`transaction_timeout`, which 16
+doesn't know).
+
+CI checks the whole path on every build. The built image backs up its own
+database, restores into a second one, checks a setting came back and the
+metrics table is empty, then starts Steward on it.

+# MCP server
+
+Steward serves the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) at
+`/mcp`. An AI client connected to it can look into everything Steward watches
+(hosts, monitors, alerts, metrics, containers, playbook runs) and, with a
+high enough role, change it. A token's role sets that ceiling.
+
+**Source:** `steward/mcp/`. The tools live in `steward/mcp/tools/`, and a
+plugin's tools live in `plugins/<name>/mcp_tools.py`.
+**Transport:** streamable HTTP, stateless. Every request carries its own
+token, so a client survives a Steward restart without reconnecting.
+
+---
+
+## Connecting
+
+1. In Steward, open **AI access** and create a token. Pick the lowest role
+   that does the job.
+2. Copy the token (it is shown once) and use one of the recipes on that
+   page. They carry the real endpoint URL and the new token. For Claude Code:
+
+   ```sh
+   claude mcp add --transport http steward https://steward.example/mcp \
+     --header "Authorization: Bearer stw_…"
+   ```
+
+3. Ask the client to call `whoami`. It answers with the user, the effective
+   role and what that role allows.
+
+Claude Desktop connects through `mcp-remote`. Open WebUI and other clients
+need an MCP server with the **Streamable HTTP** transport and bearer
+authentication. The AI access page shows the recipes for both.
+
+### Behind a reverse proxy
+
+- The URL on the AI access page is **Settings → General → Public base URL**
+  plus `/mcp`. If that setting is empty, the URL is built from the request's
+  host instead.
+- The proxy must pass the `Authorization` header through unchanged.
+- It must not buffer responses. Replies may arrive as server-sent events
+  (`text/event-stream`). For nginx, set `proxy_buffering off;` on the
+  location.
+- Steward does no Host-header (DNS-rebinding) check on `/mcp`, because the
+  bearer token is the security boundary. Serve it over HTTPS.
+
+---
+
+## Security model
+
+| Rule | How it is enforced |

+## Tools by role
+
+Each role includes the tools of the roles above it in this list.
+
+### Viewer: read everything
+
+| Area | Tools |
+|---|---|
+| Start here | `whoami`, `get_overview` (what is wrong now, ranked, each finding with the call that shows its evidence) |
+| Hosts and metrics | `list_hosts`, `get_host`, `get_host_metrics`, `query_metrics` |
+| Monitors | `list_monitors`, `get_monitor` |
+| Alerts | `list_alerts`, `get_alert_history`, `list_alert_rules`, `get_alert_rule_options`, `list_maintenance_windows` |
+| Metric anomalies | `list_anomalies` (metrics that left their normal for the hour, to review first) |
+| Automation | `list_playbooks`, `get_playbook`, `list_inventory`, `list_ansible_runs`, `get_ansible_run`, `wait_for_run`, `list_schedules` |
+| Audit | `list_audit_events` |
+| Docker plugin | `list_containers`, `get_container`, `list_swarm_services`, `search_container_logs`, `get_docker_disk_usage` |
+| Host agent plugin | `list_agents` |
+
+### Operator: run playbooks, change monitoring
+
+| Area | Tools |
+|---|---|
+| Automation | `run_playbook`, `cancel_ansible_run`, `create_schedule`, `update_schedule`, `delete_schedule`, `update_group_members` (put hosts into an inventory group or take them out; a group alert rule follows within a minute) |
+| Monitors | `create_monitor`, `update_monitor`, `set_monitor_enabled` |
+| Alerts | `create_alert_rule`, `update_alert_rule`, `acknowledge_alert`, `send_test_alert`, `create_maintenance_window`, `end_maintenance_window` |
+| Metric anomalies | `review_anomaly` (mark one normal, so its hours are learned, or real) |
+
+### Admin: destructive and remediation
+
+`set_alert_action` (the playbook a rule runs when it fires), `delete_monitor`,
+`delete_alert_rule`, `prune_docker`.
+
+The client sees each tool's full contract: arguments, what an empty value
+means, and what comes back. That contract is the tool's docstring, so read the
+docstrings in `steward/mcp/tools/` for the detail.
+
+---
+
+## Response conventions
+
+Every tool follows these conventions (`steward/mcp/tools/_shape.py`):
+
+- **Times** are ISO-8601 UTC with a `Z`. Anything with a "when" also carries
+  `age_s`, so the client never does clock arithmetic.
+- **Lists are bounded.** A list response carries `total` and `truncated`. When
+  it was cut, `more` names the argument that fetches the rest. Nothing is cut
+  silently.
+- **Time series** come back as a summary (min/avg/max/p95/last) plus a series
+  of at most 60 points, never raw rows.
+- **Lookup by name or id.** A miss suggests close matches and names the tool
+  that lists the valid choices.
+- **Refusals are readable.** Bad input becomes a tool error that says what was
+  wrong, why, and what to do instead, and nothing is changed. The tools share
+  their validation with the web forms (`monitors/service.py`,
+  `alerts/service.py`), so a value the UI refuses is refused here for the same
+  reason.
+- **Database outages** return a plain "Steward cannot reach its database"
+  rather than a stack trace.
+
+---
+
+## Adding tools
+
+Core tools: add an `async def` to a module in `steward/mcp/tools/` and list it
+in that module's `register()` with its minimum role and `read_only`. A plugin
+exposes `register_mcp_tools(register)`, and optionally `mcp_overview(db)` to
+contribute findings to `get_overview`. See
+[Writing a plugin](../plugins/writing-a-plugin.md). A tool that changes
+anything calls `audit_mcp(...)` from `steward/mcp/tools/_audit.py`.

+### Mounts that don't answer (1.14.0, #5760)
+
+Each mount is read in a daemon thread under one 5 s deadline. A hard-mounted NFS share whose server stops blocks `statvfs` in the kernel with no timeout; read inline, that froze the whole agent. A mount that misses the deadline is sent as `{"mount", "stalled": true}`, and isn't probed again while its last probe is still blocked. Steward counts them as `mounts_stalled`.
+
+### Every Docker read is bounded (1.15.0, #5764)
+
+One Docker answer must arrive within 15 s and fit in 32 MiB, and one log answer within 5 s and 4 MiB. Past either limit the read is cut off, not waited on. A per-read timeout alone never ends a body that keeps trickling in. Container logs are read since each container's cursor, but only its newest 2,000 lines, all containers within 10 s. A container that writes more than that gets a `_steward` note saying older lines were skipped. A container whose answer is too big skips ahead to now. Before this, a 1.13.0 agent re-read a growing backlog every interval and went silent for a day at 2.1 GB. Each sample also carries the agent's own `agent` footprint (`rss_bytes`, `cpu_pct`), which Steward records as `agent_rss_bytes` and `agent_cpu_pct`.
+
+### What the host has waiting (1.16.0, #5765)
+
+Once an hour, and when the agent starts, a background thread asks the package manager what it would upgrade, so a slow apt never holds up a sample. On apt hosts it uses `/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check` (pending;security), or `apt list --upgradable` when that's missing. On dnf hosts it uses `dnf -C check-update`, `dnf -C updateinfo list --security`, and `needs-restarting -r` for whether to reboot. None of this needs root or the network: the commands read lists the system's own timers already fetched. Each command has 120 s. The last answer rides every sample as `updates`. Every sample also reads Debian's `/var/run/reboot-required` (and `.pkgs`) as `reboot`. Steward records `updates_pending`, `updates_security` and `reboot_required` (1/0) for rules, and keeps the newest on the registration. The host page's Agent card leads with "Reboot required since …", then "N updates waiting (M security)" or "Up to date", with when the check ran. `state["updates_due"] = True` asks for a check on the next sample; a maintenance job uses it once it has updated the host.
+
+
+### A root helper for updates and reboots (1.17.0, #5766)
+
+The agent can't update or reboot its host: it runs as `steward-agent` under
+`NoNewPrivileges` and `ProtectSystem=strict`, so no sudo is possible, and that
+is how it should stay. A separate helper, `maint.py`, runs as root, started by
+systemd when the agent leaves it a request:
+
+- The agent writes `<id>.json` = `{"id", "action", ["node"]}` into
+  `/var/lib/steward-agent/requests`, the one path its unit lets it write
+  (`ReadWritePaths=-…`; the `-` keeps an old host without the directory
+  starting). It writes a dot-file first and renames it, so the helper never
+  sees half a request.
+- `steward-maint.path` (`PathExistsGlob=…/requests/*.json`) starts
+  `steward-maint.service`, a oneshot running `maint.py` as root.
+- The helper opens each request with `O_NOFOLLOW`, wants a regular file under
+  4 KiB, and accepts only `update`, `reboot`, `drain` or `undrain`, an id of
+  letters, digits and dashes, and a node id in the swarm's own 25-character
+  form. It deletes every request, valid or not, and writes the outcome to
+  `/var/lib/steward-maint/results/<id>.json` (root's; kept a week). A request
+  whose id already has a result is not run again.
+- **update**: `apt-get update` then `dist-upgrade` keeping existing config
+  files, with `NEEDRESTART_MODE=l` so needrestart only lists services rather
+  than restarting the Docker daemon under its containers; or
+  `dnf -y upgrade --refresh`. The result says how many packages changed and
+  whether a reboot is now required.
+- **reboot**: writes `rebooting`, syncs, `systemctl reboot`. Any request after
+  it waits for the next boot.
+- **drain / undrain**: `docker node update --availability drain|active`, on
+  the given node or this host's own. Only a manager can; a worker's helper says
+  so in its result.
+
+The agent reports each result's new state once, as a `maintenance` event with
+its next post that gets through (results older than a day are not news). When
+an update finishes it re-checks what's waiting straight away rather than at
+the next hourly check. Its metadata says `maint_helper: true` once the path
+unit is installed and it can write its request directory; the host's Agent
+panel shows that under Manage agent. **Update agent** installs the helper on a
+host that has an older agent.
+
+So a stolen agent token can make its host update, reboot or drain, and nothing
+else. Steward handing a host a job and following it through the reboot is
+#5767 (below); the cadence that does it one host at a time is #5768.
+
+### A maintenance job, followed through the reboot (1.18.0, #5767)
+
+Steward keeps one `host_maintenance_jobs` row per job and moves it on only from
+what the agents post, so a restart of Steward, or a reboot of the host Steward
+runs on, loses nothing. `plugins/host_agent/maintenance.py` has the states and
+transitions (model-free, unit-tested) and the database side.
+
+```
+queued → updating → [draining →] rebooting → [undraining →] done
+                  ↘ done (no reboot needed, or the job may never reboot)
+any state → failed (a step's result said so) | timed_out (its deadline passed)
+```
+
+- **Hand-off.** Steward's answer to an ingest post carries
+  `"maintenance": [{"id", "action", ["node"]}]`, the step that host's agent
+  should carry out now. It is repeated on every post until a result for that
+  step id arrives; the agent leaves each id for the helper once
+  (`take_maintenance`), and the helper refuses an id it already has a result
+  for, so a repeat, or a re-hand after the agent restarts, never runs twice.
+  A step id is `<job id>-<action>`.
+- **Results** are the `maintenance` events of #5766, matched to the job by step
+  id, so a drain reported by a manager reaches the job of the node it drained.
+- **The reboot completes** when the host's agent sends `started` with a
+  `boot_at` after the reboot was handed out (60 s of clock slack). An agent
+  restart on a host that stayed up has an old `boot_at` and changes nothing.
+- **Reboot only when required**: the update's result says whether a reboot is
+  needed; a job made with "never reboot" stops after the update.
+- **Swarm nodes** are drained first and made active after. The node is found
+  by hostname in the Docker plugin's swarm nodes; a manager drains itself, a
+  worker is drained by a manager whose agent has the helper. With no such
+  manager the job is refused rather than rebooting an undrained node.
+- **Deadlines** (`DEADLINES`): queued 1 h, updating 90 min, draining 10 min,
+  rebooting 30 min, undraining 10 min. A minute tick (`host_agent_maintenance`)
+  times out a job past its deadline.
+- **A maintenance window** scoped to the host's agent metrics
+  (`host_agent/<host>`) opens when the job starts, lasts as long as the rest of
+  the job could take, and ends when it does.
+- Ingest applies all of this in a savepoint of its own: a job going wrong is
+  logged and never costs the host its samples.
+
+On the host's Agent panel: a running job leads what the host has waiting, with
+since-when; a finished one says what it did ("Done: 12 packages updated,
+rebooted"). Under Manage agent, **Update now** (with "never reboot") starts a
+job, or the panel says why one can't start.
+
+### A maintenance cadence: a group, one host at a time (#5768)
+
+`plugins/host_agent/cadence.py`, driven by the same minute tick as the jobs.
+A **plan** (`host_maintenance_plans`) names an inventory group, a weekday, a
+time in a time zone (the creator's, by default), a window and a reboot policy:
+`if_required` (the default), `always` or `never`. The page is **Hosts →
+Maintenance** (`/plugins/host_agent/maintenance`).
+
+- **When.** A plan's slot is the latest weekday-and-time at or before now, in
+  its zone. A slot fires once (`last_slot_at`) and only while its window is
+  open, so a Steward that was down over the slot starts late, not a day late.
+  A new or resumed plan starts from the next slot. **Run now** starts a run
+  without touching the schedule (the Ansible ruling on Run now).
+- **A run** (`host_maintenance_runs`) fixes its hosts at the start, by name:
+  the group's hosts through their linked Ansible targets. A host with no agent,
+  or no maintenance helper, is skipped and listed.
+- **One at a time.** Each host gets a #5767 job (`run_id` on the job). The next
+  host starts only when the last is **back in service**: its agent posting in
+  the last 3 min and, for a swarm node, the node `ready`/`active` and every
+  replicated service at its replicas, judged only from swarm reports made
+  after the job finished. A host not back within 30 min fails the run, and
+  its job is marked failed with the reason.
+- **Stops.** A failed or timed-out job fails the run. No host is started after
+  the window; the run then stops and says how many weren't reached.
+- **Alerting** is an ordinary alert rule on `host_agent/<host>/maintenance_failed`:
+  1 when the host's latest job (in 30 days) failed, timed out or didn't come
+  back into service, 0 once a later one succeeds.
+- The page leads with a running run and its hosts, then failed runs from the
+  last week, then each plan with its schedule, next slot and last five runs.
+  Each host's Agent panel shows its last maintenance job.
+
+### The swarm's health, alertable (1.19.0, #5788)
+
+Every manager's agent reports the whole swarm. From each report the docker plugin (`plugins/docker/swarm_health.py`) records three swarm-wide figures on resource `swarm`, source `docker`:
+
+- `swarm_services_short`: services running fewer tasks than they want. A service scaled to 0 is never short.
+- `swarm_nodes_down`: nodes not `ready`.
+- `swarm_managers_unreachable`: managers the swarm reports as not `reachable`. Agent 1.19.0 sends `ManagerStatus.Reachability`; before that, a manager whose status isn't `ready` counts.
+
+Drained nodes are left out of the last two. A node is drained on purpose (VDNT-Util01 always, any node during its maintenance), so its going away is expected, and its host's own "Agent offline" rule still covers it.
+
+The figures are recorded at most once every 30 s, whichever manager sent them, so three managers make one series and losing one doesn't silence it.
+
+A maintenance job on a swarm node opens a second window over `docker` / `swarm` beside its host's (`maintenance._swarm_window`). An alert the drain or reboot causes then waits for the job, and one still firing when the window ends is sent then.
+
+### Drive health (1.20.0, #5789; 1.20.1, #5806)
+
+Reading SMART needs root, so the root helper does it, as the one action on its fixed list that only reads: `drives`. Hourly, and at start, the agent leaves a `drives` request. The helper runs `smartctl --scan-open` to find the drives itself (the request names none), reads each with `smartctl --json -a -d <type> <dev>`, and writes a summary to `/var/lib/steward-maint/drives.json` (0644). It writes no job result, because a drive read is not a maintenance job. The agent's newest copy rides every sample, as updates do.
+
+smartctl ≥ 7.0 answers in JSON, the same on every distribution and for SATA, SAS and NVMe drives. A missing or older smartctl is reported (`smartctl not installed`, `… too old`) and its text output is never parsed. The helper reports figures only:
+
+- `passed` and `temp_c` for every drive;
+- `critical_warning`, `life_used_pct`, `media_errors` and spare % against threshold for NVMe;
+- reallocated / pending / offline-uncorrectable sectors for ATA, and life used where the drive reports it;
+- grown defects for SCSI.
+
+A drive with no SMART (a virtual disk, a bridge that hides it) reads `available: false`, and one smartctl couldn't open carries `error`. Disks behind a RAID controller share one path (`/dev/bus/0`) and differ by the slot in their type (`megaraid,3`), so the slot is part of the name: `bus0-megaraid3` (1.20.1, #5806). Steward also gives a repeated name an ordinal (`0#2`), so two drives never share a series.
+
+Steward judges the figures in `drives.py`, so the judgment can change without an agent update:
+
+- **failing**: the drive's self-assessment fails, an NVMe critical warning is raised, or spare blocks fall under threshold;
+- **worn**: at least 90% of its rated life is used;
+- **watch**: it has bad sectors or media errors but otherwise passes. Old disks carry a few for years, so a count alone isn't a failure.
+
+The figures become metrics on `<host>:drive:<device>`: `drive_failing`, `drive_life_used_pct`, `drive_bad_sectors` and `drive_temp_c`. The host gets `drives_failing` and `drive_life_used_max_pct` for covering rules; they are recorded only when at least one drive was read, so a VM's virtual disks don't claim "0 failing". The registration keeps the newest report (`drive_health`), and the host page lists it under **Drive health**, what needs attention first.
+
+**Installing smartctl on any common distribution.** `files/install-deps.sh` installs smartmontools with whichever package manager the host has: apt (without recommends, which would pull in a mail server), dnf, yum, zypper, pacman or apk. install.sh and the install / provision / update playbooks all fetch and run that one copy. A package that can't be installed is reported and never fails the install.
+
+### What happened to the host (1.14.0, #5756)
+
+A post may carry `events`, said once each, with the next post that gets through:
+
+- `started` — the agent starting, with `boot_at` (from `/proc/uptime`).
+- `stopping` — on SIGTERM, with `host_shutdown`: true, false, or null when systemd can't say.
+- `lost_contact` — `from` the first post that got no answer (or a proxy's 5xx) `to` the post carrying it.
+
+Steward turns them into the host's downtime (`host_downtime`): **reboot** (a stop, then a boot after it), **agent_stop** (the host stayed up), **unclean** (a boot after the agent was last heard that nobody announced: power loss or a crash) and **lost_contact**. An announced stop explains the silence for `reboot_grace_seconds` (Settings → Plugins → host_agent, 10 minutes): `seconds_since_seen` reads 0 until then, and the host's other rules go quiet with it, as when it is offline. Past the grace, agent offline fires. The events live in memory, so a span the agent saw is lost if it restarts mid-outage; the boot time still reads the restart as unclean.
+
+### Which temperature sensors are thermometers (#5782, #5783)
+
+A board's spare thermistor inputs (a Nuvoton's SYSTIN, AUXTIN*) are often wired to nothing, and the kernel reports them anyway, at whatever the open input reads. The host's temperature (`temp_c_max`) leaves a sensor out when:
+
+- **its value is impossible** (at or below 0 °C, or at or above 125 °C; `counts_as_hottest`), or
+- **it doesn't behave like a thermometer.** Once an hour, `sensors.refresh` judges each sensor against the host's CPU (Intel `Package id N`, AMD `Tctl`/`Tdie`/`TccdN`, else `PECI Agent N`), using the last 7 days of hourly averages. It needs at least 72 shared hours and a CPU that moved at least 10 °C. A sensor is ruled out when it **falls as the CPU warms** (Pearson r ≤ −0.5, the shape of an open input reading the chip's own reference) or **holds within 0.5 °C** while the CPU moved. A wired board or drive sensor that barely follows the CPU (r near 0) stays in.
+
+The verdicts are kept in memory and rebuilt at startup, so ingest and the host page read them without a query. The host page lists the sensors left out under "Not counted", each with its reason. A host with no CPU reading, or too little history, falls back to the value rule alone.
+
+`temp_c_max` can drive an alert rule (#5787), e.g. "Host running hot": all hosts, over 85 °C for 10 consecutive checks. So can each sensor's `temp_c`, and the per-interface and per-disk throughput. `tests/core/test_metric_catalog.py` holds every metric ingest writes to the alert catalog, except the few `NOT_ALERTABLE` names in `plugins/host_agent/__init__.py`.

+`plugins/host_agent/templates/install.sh.j2` is the script; it is not copied
+here, because a copy drifts. It checks it runs as root with systemd and
+python3, handles `--uninstall`, creates the `steward-agent` user, fetches
+`agent.py`, writes the config, then fetches the maintenance helper and the
+three units from `/plugins/host_agent/files/` (the same files the playbooks
+install), creates the maintenance directories, and enables
+`steward-maint.path` and the agent.
 
 ### Design points
 
-- **Agent binary served by Roundtable itself.** `GET /plugins/host_agent/agent.py` serves the script bundled with the plugin, so version drift between install-script and agent is impossible — re-running the installer picks up whatever agent the currently-running Roundtable ships.
+- **One copy of every file a host installs.** The units and the maintenance helper live in `plugins/host_agent/files/` and are served at `/plugins/host_agent/files/<name>` (a fixed list; anything else is 404). install.sh and the install, provision and update playbooks all fetch them, so the unit can't differ between a host installed by hand and one installed by Ansible (#5766).
+- **Agent binary served by Steward itself.** `GET /plugins/host_agent/agent.py` serves the script bundled with the plugin, so version drift between install-script and agent is impossible — re-running the installer picks up whatever agent the currently-running Steward ships.
 - **Systemd hardening is cheap and correct.** `NoNewPrivileges`, `ProtectSystem=strict`, `ProtectHome`, `PrivateTmp`, `ReadOnlyPaths=/proc /sys`. The agent only needs read access to `/proc`, `/sys`, and mount points; denying everything else narrows blast radius.
 - **Uninstall is a first-class flag**, not a separate script. Same one-liner with `--uninstall` appended.
 - **Fail-fast on preflight.** Missing systemd or python3 → clear error, exit. No half-installed agent.

+# Prometheus widget templates
+
+The Prometheus dashboard widget draws one scrape target through a **template**: a short YAML file that says which of the target's series to show and how. Steward ships with one, **Fabled Archives**. You can write your own, paste in one someone shared, and share yours as a file.
+
+A template is data, not code. It names series and lays them out in **blocks**, and Steward draws them. It cannot add a colour, a chart or a formula. Every widget it draws has the same shape:
+
+1. **A verdict:** "All well.", or the worst thing and how many need a look ("2 need a look. Replication: FullNightly-Restic is running, 11h 53m overdue.").
+2. **Each block in turn**, its problems first, saying why, then the healthy rest. After six healthy rows a block says "+N more healthy".
+3. **The target's name and when it was scraped**, linking to its page.
+
+This page covers where templates live, a walk through a first template, each block with an example, the format reference, and the Fabled Archives template.
+
+---
+
+## Where templates live
+
+**Prometheus → Widget templates** lists every template: the built-in ones, and your own. Open one to see its YAML beside a **preview**, which draws it over a target you pick from the values Steward has already stored. The preview redraws as you type and lists each problem with its line number.
+
+| You want to | Do this |
+|---|---|
+| Start from scratch | **New template**, then write or paste YAML. |
+| Use one someone sent you | **New template**, then paste it or **upload** the `.yaml` file. Look at the preview, then **Save template**. |
+| Change a built-in one | Open it, then **Duplicate**. Built-in templates are read-only and change with Steward, so you edit the copy. |
+| Share yours | **Export** downloads the YAML as a file. |
+| Use it on a dashboard | Edit the dashboard, **Add widget → Prometheus**, and pick the target and the template. |
+
+A template saves only when it has no problems, and its `name` must differ from every other template's. A widget remembers which template it draws with, so renaming a template keeps its widgets. Deleting one leaves its widgets saying the template is gone. Your templates are in Steward's backups, and adding, changing or deleting one is recorded in the audit log.
+
+Steward never fetches a template from anywhere. Templates arrive only by being pasted or uploaded.
+
+---
+
+## Your first template
+
+Look at the target's page first (**Prometheus → the target**). It lists every series Steward stored, with its labels and newest value. A template names those series exactly as listed there.
+
+```yaml
+name: My service
+version: 1
+expects: myservice_
+blocks:
+  - values:
+      title: Health
+      items:
+        - label: Queue depth
+          metric: myservice_queue_depth
+          unit: count
+          warn_above: 100
+        - label: Disk free
+          metric: myservice_disk_free_bytes
+          of: myservice_disk_size_bytes
+          warn_below: 10%

+  - times:

+          metric: myservice_last_success_timestamp_seconds
+          warn_after: 26h
+          crit_after: 2d
+```
+
+- `name` is what the widget is called, and what the template list and the widget picker show.
+- `version` is the template's own version. Raise it when you change a template you have shared, so the people you sent it to can tell copies apart.
+- `expects` is the start of the metric names it reads. If the target reports none, the widget says so ("is this the template for it?") instead of a column of blanks.
+
+**Metric names as Steward stores them.** A gauge keeps its name. A counter is stored as a rate per second: `requests_total` becomes `requests_per_sec`. A histogram keeps only `_sum_per_sec` and `_count_per_sec`. See [How series are stored](prometheus.md#how-series-are-stored).
+
+---
+
+## The blocks
+
+Every block takes an optional `title`. Without one, it gets the default title shown in its heading below.
+
+### `states`: a state set, one row per thing (default title "States")
+
+A state set has one series per possible state, with the current one at 1 and the rest at 0. Archives' `fabledarchives_backup_target_state{target, state}` is one. Each thing it describes becomes a row naming its current state.
+
+```yaml
+- states:
+    title: Backup targets
+    metric: fabledarchives_backup_target_state
+    name: target                 # the label that names each row
+    healthy: [fresh]
+    quiet: [disabled, waiting]   # shown greyed, never a problem
+    warning: [late]              # anything not listed is a problem
+    columns:
+      - {label: Last backup, metric: fabledarchives_backup_target_last_backup_timestamp_seconds}
+      - {label: Stored, metric: fabledarchives_backup_target_stored_bytes}
+```
+
+- A state in `healthy` is fine, in `quiet` is shown greyed, and in `warning` is amber. **A state in none of the lists is red.** So a state the service adds later shows up as a problem rather than slipping by as healthy.
+- A row reporting no current state is a warning.
+- `columns` add the row's other series beside its state. Each column series is matched to its row by having the same labels. Failing that, it is matched by the label `name` points at.
+- **Deadlines:** `warn_past` and `crit_past` each name a `*_timestamp_seconds` metric per row. Once that time has passed, a row in a healthy state reads as a warning, or a problem for `crit_past` ("is running, 11h 53m overdue"). Quiet and failing rows keep their own reading. Use this when a service ranks a state like "running" above lateness, so a run that never ends would otherwise read as healthy.
+
+### `values`: figures with their units (default title "Figures")
+
+```yaml
+- values:
+    title: Storage
+    items:
+      - label: Disk free
+        metric: fabledarchives_data_disk_free_bytes
+        of: fabledarchives_data_disk_size_bytes   # shown as "16.2 TiB of 41.9 TiB", with a bar
+        warn_below: 10%                            # a share of `of`
+        crit_below: 5%
+        sparkline: true                            # the last day as small bars beside it
+      - label: Stored
+        metric: fabledarchives_person_stored_bytes
+        name: person                               # one row per person
+        where: {kind: files}                       # only the series with kind=files
+```
+
+- `warn_above`, `crit_above`, `warn_below` and `crit_below` take a number, or a share like `10%` when the item has `of`. The red thresholds are checked before the amber ones.
+- Without `name`, an item must match exactly one series. If more match, the row says how many and asks you to narrow it with `where` or `name`.
+- A series the target doesn't report reads "—", "not reported", as a warning.
+- The sparkline's bars are scaled to that series' own peak over the last 24 hours.
+
+### `times`: moments and how long ago (default title "Times")
+
+```yaml
+- times:
+    items:
+      - label: Last good run
+        metric: myservice_last_success_timestamp_seconds
+        warn_after: 26h
+        crit_after: 2d
+```
+
+The metric is a `*_timestamp_seconds`. The row reads "3h ago" (exact time on hover) and turns amber or red once that long has passed. A timestamp of 0 reads "never", which is a warning when the item has a threshold.
+
+### `table`: one metric, two labels (default title "Table")
+
+```yaml
+- table:
+    title: Stored per person
+    metric: fabledarchives_person_stored_bytes
+    rows: person
+    columns: kind
+```
+
+Rows and columns are the values of the two labels, in alphabetical order, under one header row. A missing cell reads "—". Tables show figures only; they don't judge them.
+
+### `info`: labels worth reading (default title "About")
+
+```yaml
+- info:
+    title: Running
+    metric: fabledarchives_build_info
+    labels: [version, channel, commit]   # which labels, in this order; all of them when left out
+```
+
+This block is for a `*_info` or `*_build_info` series, where the labels are the point and the value is always 1. It reads "version 2026.10.12.1717 · channel dev · commit 3605d0a".

+## Reference
+
+**Top level**
+
+| Key | Needed | What it is |
+|---|---|---|
+| `name` | yes | At most 80 characters; unique among your templates and the built-in ones. |
+| `version` | yes | A whole number from 1. |
+| `blocks` | yes | One to 20 blocks. |
+| `description` | | A line shown in the template list. |
+| `expects` | | The prefix of the metric names it reads, like `fabledarchives_`. |
+| `format` | | The template format; `1`, the only one so far. |
+
+**Keys most blocks and items take**
+
+| Key | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| `metric` | A series name as Steward stores it. |
+| `where` | Labels a series must have, like `{kind: files, state: ok}`. |
+| `name` | On `states`, `values` and `times`: the label that names each row (one row per value). |
+| `unit` | On a `values` item, a `states` column or a `table`: overrides the unit read from the name: `bytes`, `seconds` (a span), `percent`, `per_sec`, `count` (thousands separated: 100,462), `timestamp`. |
+
+Without `unit`, the name decides how a value reads: `_bytes` as bytes, `_seconds` as a span, `_timestamp_seconds` as a moment, `_per_sec` as a rate, `_pct` as a percentage. Anything else is a plain number.
+
+**Spans** (`warn_after`, `crit_after`) are a number of seconds or a number with `s`, `m`, `h` or `d`: `90`, `15m`, `26h`, `2d`.
+
+**Limits:** a template is at most 64 KB, with at most 20 blocks and 30 items in a block.
+
+**What the checker refuses,** each with its line and what to change:
+- an unknown key;
+- a key given twice;
+- anchors and aliases (`&name`, `*name`): write the value out;
+- a share threshold (`10%`) without `of`;
+- a state in two of `healthy`, `quiet` and `warning`;
+- `crit_after` earlier than `warn_after`;
+- a word YAML reads as true or false (`on`, `off`, `yes`, `no`) used as a state or label value. Quote it: `'off'`.

+
+## The Fabled Archives template, walked through
+
+The built-in template is a worked example of most of the above. **Duplicate** it to read or change it. It was written against the series Archives actually reports. On 14 Oct 2026 that turned up a nightly replication job that had read "running" for two days without a good copy; the deadlines below exist to catch exactly that.
+
+| Block | What it shows | Why it is written this way |
+|---|---|---|
+| Backup targets (`states`) | Each target Archives receives backups from: fresh, late or missing, with its last backup and what it has stored. | `disabled` and `waiting` are quiet: a target you turned off, or one that hasn't sent its first backup, isn't a problem. `late` is a warning; `missing` (not listed) is a problem. |
+| Replication (`states`) | Each replication job, its last good copy and its next run. | Archives ranks `running` above lateness, so `warn_past` and `crit_past` read the job's own late and missing times. A run that never finishes turns amber, then red. |
+| Storage and integrity (`values`) | Disk free of its size (amber under 10%, red under 5%, last day as bars), files checked of files, malware held, failing notification channels. | Held malware and a failing channel each need you to do something, so any count above 0 is a warning. |
+| Stored per person (`table`) | Each person's files, versions and trash. | Figures to read, not to judge. |
+| Running (`info`) | The version, channel and commit. | |
+
+Left out on purpose (the template's header says so too):
+- `fabledarchives_section_up`: a section Archives couldn't read stops reporting its figures, and the rows that read them then say "not reported".
+- The background queue, HTTP requests and audit counters: these suit charts and alert rules better than a glance.

+# Prometheus Plugin
+
+The Prometheus plugin scrapes any service's Prometheus `/metrics` endpoint and stores what you choose to keep in Steward's metrics. Once stored, a series can be charted, read through the MCP `query_metrics` tool, and watched by an alert rule like any other metric.
+
+It is on by default. Targets are added, tested and edited on its page, **Prometheus** in the sidebar (`/plugins/prometheus/`).
+
+---
+
+## Adding a target
+
+| Field | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| Name | How the target's series are named in Steward (rule pickers, charts). No `/`, `:` or comma. |
+| Metrics address | The full URL, e.g. `http://archives:8081/metrics`. |
+| Bearer token | Sent as `Authorization: Bearer …`. Stored encrypted and never shown again; leave it blank to keep the saved one. |
+| Scrape every | 10 s to an hour. Default 60 s. |
+| Check its HTTPS certificate | Off only for a self-signed certificate you trust. |
+| Keep / Leave out | Name patterns, one a line, `*` for any run of characters. Empty Keep keeps everything; Leave out wins over Keep. |
+| Series cap | The most series stored from one scrape (default 1000). Past it, the rest are counted and shown on the target's page, not stored. |
+
+**Test** scrapes the address once with what is typed, filters included, and says how many series would be stored and under which names. Nothing is saved.
+
+The endpoint hands over everything; Steward chooses what to keep. Start narrow (`yourservice_*`) and widen it if you find you want more: every stored series is a row every scrape.
+
+---
+
+## How series are stored
+
+| On the endpoint | In Steward |
+|---|---|
+| A gauge or an untyped sample | Stored as it is, under its own name. |
+| A counter (`requests_total`) | Stored as a rate per second, `requests_per_sec`, from the second scrape on. A value lower than the last (the service restarted) is skipped rather than read as a negative rate. |
+| A histogram or summary | Its `_sum` and `_count` are stored as rates (`x_sum_per_sec`, `x_count_per_sec`). Buckets and quantiles are not stored. |
+| NaN or ±Inf | Not stored. |
+
+A series without labels is stored under the target's name. A labelled one is stored under `<target>:<label>=<value>,…`, in the order the endpoint gives the labels, for example `Archives:target=Steward,state=late`.
+
+Each target also records four metrics about itself, under its own name:
+
+| Metric | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `is_up` | 1 when the last scrape got metrics, 0 when it didn't. |
+| `scrape_ms` | How long the scrape took. |
+| `series_kept` | Series stored from the last scrape. |
+| `series_capped` | Series the last scrape left out because of the cap. |
+
+A value's unit is read from Prometheus naming: `_bytes` as bytes, `_seconds` as a span, `_timestamp_seconds` as a moment ("3h ago"), `_per_sec` as a rate.
+
+A **state set** is one series per possible state, the current one 1 and the rest 0, such as `fabledarchives_backup_target_state{target, state}`. The target page shows it as one row per target (or job), naming the current state; the other states are listed on hover. A metric is read as a state set when its name ends in `_state` and every series has a `state` label reading 0 or 1. The OpenMetrics form, where the label is named after the metric (`foo{foo="a"} 1`), counts too. Each state is still stored as its own series, so an alert rule can watch one state.
+
+**Only what the endpoint reports now is current.** When a scrape succeeds, any series it no longer has loses its newest value. That happens when the endpoint stopped reporting it, for example an old `build_info` after an upgrade, or when a filter or the cap now leaves it out. Its history stays on the chart until retention removes it. A failed scrape leaves the newest values as they were.
+
+Renaming a target moves its stored history to the new name. Deleting one removes its newest values; its history ages out with retention (Settings → Retention).
+
+---
+
+## The dashboard widget
+
+Edit a dashboard, open **Add widget**, and pick **Prometheus** under Integrations. Choose a **target** and a **template**; the widget is named after the template unless you give it a title.
+
+A template says which of the target's series to show and how: backup states, figures with their units, times, a table, the version running. The widget leads with one line naming the worst problem, then each section with its problems first and the healthy rest after. Its **Details** link opens the target's page.
+
+Steward ships with one template, **Fabled Archives**. A target whose series don't match its template says so in the widget rather than showing blanks.
+
+## Widget templates
+
+**Prometheus → Widget templates** lists every template the widget can draw with: the ones built in, and your own. A template of yours that no longer passes the checker (a newer Steward may read the format differently) is listed first with what to change, and the widgets drawn with it say so too.
+
+Open one to see its YAML beside a **preview**: the template drawn over a target you choose, exactly as the widget draws it, from the values Steward has stored. Nothing is fetched from the target to draw it.
+
+- **New template**: write one, or paste in one someone shared. The preview redraws as you type, and lists each problem with its line until there are none.
+- **Upload a file**: on the same page, read a `.yaml` file into the editor to look over before saving.
+- **Duplicate**: copy any template, built-in ones included, under a new name, and change the copy. Built-in templates are read-only: they ship with Steward and change with it.
+- **Export**: download a template's YAML, to keep or to share.
+
+How to write one, every block, and the format reference: [Prometheus widget templates](prometheus-widgets.md).
+
+Saving needs a template that passes the checker and a name no other template has. A widget remembers which template it draws with, so renaming a template keeps its widgets; deleting one leaves its widgets saying the template is gone. Templates are kept in Steward's backups, and adding, changing or deleting one is in the audit log.
+
+## Alerting on a target
+
+In **Alerts → New rule**, choose **Prometheus targets**, then the series (the resource) and the metric. Two rules worth having for any target:
+
+- **It stopped answering:** resource `<target>`, metric `is_up`, `< 1`.
+- **Something was cut off:** resource `<target>`, metric `series_capped`, `> 0`.
+
+---
+
+## Recipe: Fabled Archives
+
+Archives serves `/metrics` on its backup listener (port 8081), which is reachable only on your LAN and the swarm's overlay network, behind a scrape token.
+
+1. In Archives, **Settings → Metrics → Make a token**, named e.g. "Steward". Copy it; it is shown once.
+2. In Steward, **Prometheus → Add target**:
+   - Name `Archives`
+   - Metrics address `http://<archives host>:8081/metrics` (on a shared overlay network, the service name, e.g. `http://archives_app:8081/metrics`)
+   - Bearer token: the one you copied
+   - Keep: `fabledarchives_*`
+3. **Test**, then **Add target**.
+
+Rules worth adding:
+
+| Watch | Resource | Metric | Condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| A backup target is late | `Archives:target=<name>,target_id=<id>,state=late` | `fabledarchives_backup_target_state` | `>= 1` |
+| A backup target is missing | `Archives:target=<name>,target_id=<id>,state=missing` | `fabledarchives_backup_target_state` | `>= 1` |
+| A replication job is failing | `Archives:job=<name>,job_id=<id>,state=failing` | `fabledarchives_replication_job_state` | `>= 1` |
+| Archives' data disk is filling | `Archives` | `fabledarchives_data_disk_free_bytes` | `<` your floor |
+| Archives stopped answering | `Archives` | `is_up` | `< 1` |
+
+The target's page lists every stored series with its exact resource name, so copy names from there rather than typing them.

 ### Detail Page
 
-The full Traefik page at `/plugins/traefik/` shows all routers with sparkline history charts (last 20 data points) for request rate, p95 latency, and 5xx error rate.
+The full Traefik page at `/plugins/traefik/` reads top to bottom, for the time range picked at the top:
+
+1. **The verdict.** It names the routers that need a look, says why, and says when the problem started ("api, 3.0% of responses are 5xx, started 2h ago"). When a router has been a problem for the whole range, it says so instead. Otherwise it reads "All N routers healthy".
+2. **The request chart.** Requests per second across all routers and the share answered 5xx, the same chart as the dashboard widget.
+3. **A card for each router that needs a look:** why, since when, the 4xx and 5xx status codes it answered in the last 15 minutes, most first ("404 ×1,812, 502 ×40"), and its request rate, bandwidth, p95/p99 latency and 4xx/5xx shares, each with its history. The code is what separates scanners probing for pages (404), a login wall (401/403) and an app that isn't answering (502/503/504). Steward records codes from the version that added them on; until then a card says they aren't recorded yet.
+   Each card then says what its problem usually means and what to do (`plugins/traefik/meaning.py`, #5712):
+   - **Server errors (5xx)** are almost always real. Mostly 500: the app is failing requests. Mostly 502/503/504: Traefik couldn't reach the app, or it timed out.
+   - **Client errors (4xx)** are usually traffic rather than a fault. Mostly 404: scanners and bots. 401/403: a login wall. 429: rate limiting. Mostly 499 is the exception: clients giving up on a slow app.
+   - **Slow responses** compare p95 with p50. When p95 is 4× p50 or more, a few requests are slow (one endpoint or a heavy page). When p50 is close behind, the whole app is slow.
+   - **Next:** a fault links to the swarm service behind the router (its tasks and logs) when Steward can match the name ("codex@swarm" → `codex_app`, "radarr@swarm" → `arr_radarr`), otherwise to Docker → Swarm. Traffic links to Settings → Thresholds.
+4. **Traefik's own figures:** when its config last reloaded, open connections, memory.
+5. **The healthy routers,** folded into one table, then the routers Traefik no longer reports, then TLS certificates by soonest expiry, then Traffic Origin when the access log is on.
+
+A router is graded on its last 15 minutes against Settings → Thresholds. When a problem started is read from the router's history over the range.
+
+Once a router has 5 days of history, its 4xx share and p95 latency are judged against its own normal for that hour (see [Normals and anomalies](../architecture.md)) instead of the fixed cutoffs. One over the cutoff but within its normal is healthy, and the healthy table says it is usual for that router (an error-pages service that answers 4xx all day, a login wall's steady 401s). One out of its normal is a warning that says what is usual, and a metric anomaly to review; the Traefik page lists the routers' anomalies of the last 30 days. How far out counts is set on Settings → Thresholds → Normals (2 points of 4xx share, 50 ms of p95 by default). A 4xx share over fewer requests in the 15 minutes than Settings → Thresholds allows (30 by default) isn't judged at all. The 5xx share is a failure and always keeps its fixed cutoff. Latency is learned only from #5755's per-scrape figures, so its normal arrives 5 days after that release.

+- `role` and `read_only` are required. A tool is listed and callable only for callers whose role reaches `role`, and only while the plugin is enabled.

+- Refuse by raising `ValueError("what was wrong, and what to do instead")`. The agent reads that text. Any other exception reaches it only as a generic failure.
+- Tool names are global across core and every plugin; a name already taken fails registration and the plugin contributes no tools (logged).
+- Hot-reloading the plugin replaces its tools.
+- Follow the response conventions the core tools use (`steward/mcp/tools/_shape.py`): times via `iso()` plus `age_s()`, lists through `bounded()` so a cut is never silent, series through `summarize()`, and lookups by name or id through `pick()`.

+`get_overview` is the agent's first call: what is wrong right now, ranked. A plugin adds its own problems to it by exporting an optional `mcp_overview(db)` that returns findings built with `steward.mcp.tools.overview.finding`:

-### How install works
+---
 
-When a user clicks **Install** in Settings → Plugins:
+## Shipping a Plugin
 
-1. The app downloads the zip from `download_url`
-2. Verifies the SHA-256 checksum (if provided)
-3. Extracts the plugin into its `PLUGIN_DIR`
-4. Runs any pending Alembic migrations for the plugin
-5. Attempts a **hot-reload** — registers the blueprint and scheduled tasks without restarting
-6. If the plugin was previously loaded (blueprint already mounted), a **restart** is required to pick up the new code
+Steward never downloads plugins. There is no catalog and no install button: the app runs with no outbound network.
 
-Hot-reload works reliably for brand-new plugin installs. Updates to already-active plugins require a restart, which can be triggered from the same settings page.
+- **First-party plugins** live in this repository under `plugins/` and ship inside the image, so they version with core.
+- **A third-party plugin** is a folder you put in the external plugin root, `/data/plugins` by default (`STEWARD_PLUGIN_DIR` moves it). Restart Steward and the plugin appears in Settings → Plugins, where you enable it. A bundled plugin of the same name wins over an external one.

+# Authoring Steward-friendly Ansible playbooks
+
+This is the contract between a playbook and Steward's run UI. Follow it and a
+playbook drops into Steward with a description, fill-in variable fields, correct
+targeting, and credentials supplied automatically — no per-playbook wiring.
+
+It applies to **any** playbook in a configured source (bundled, the writable
+local source, or a git source), including third-party ones.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Describe what it does — `# description:`
+
+Steward shows a one-line description when a playbook is selected in the run form.
+
+```yaml
+---
+# description: Reclaim disk on Docker/Swarm nodes by pruning unused images and build cache.
+- name: Docker system prune
+  hosts: all
+  ...
+```
+
+- Format: a comment line `# description: <text>` anywhere in the file. **First
+  match wins.** Case-insensitive on the `description:` key.
+- Why a comment and not a key: Ansible rejects unknown *play* keys (you can't add
+  `description:` to a play), so a comment is the portable place. It survives
+  `ansible-playbook` untouched.
+- Fallback: if there's no `# description:` comment, Steward uses the **first
+  play's `name:`**. So always give your play a meaningful `name:` even without
+  the comment.
+- Keep it to one readable line. Longer "how to use" notes can go in additional
+  normal comments — Steward only reads the `description:` line.
+
+## 2. Declare tunables in `vars:` — they become fill-in fields
+
+Every **scalar** entry in a play's `vars:` block becomes an editable field in the
+run form, with the default shown as the input's placeholder.
+
+```yaml
+  vars:
+    prune_all_images: false      # → checkbox-ish text field, placeholder "default: false"
+    keep_last_days: 7            # → field, placeholder "default: 7"
+    registry_url: ""             # → field, placeholder "no default"
+```
+
+- **Blank field = use the default.** Steward only sends fields the operator
+  actually fills, so an untouched field falls through to the playbook/inventory
+  default rather than overriding it.
+- Only scalars (string/int/float/bool) surface as fields. Lists/dicts are
+  skipped — set those in the playbook or via inventory group/host vars.
+- Values are delivered as **extra-vars** (`-e`), which are the **highest**
+  precedence in Ansible — they override the `vars:` defaults. (This is why the
+  default can be empty and still be safely overridden at run time.)
+
+### `vars_prompt:` also works
+
+Steward reads `vars_prompt` too. Use it when you want an explicit prompt or a
+required value:
+
+```yaml
+  vars_prompt:
+    - name: release_tag
+      prompt: "Which release to deploy?"     # shown as the field label
+      # no default → Steward marks the field REQUIRED
+    - name: admin_password
+      prompt: "Admin password"
+      private: true                          # → masked field, never stored
+```
+
+## 3. Secrets — name them so they're masked and not persisted
+
+A field is treated as **secret** (rendered masked, and its value is **never
+written to the DB / run history**) when either:
+
+- the variable name contains `password`, `passwd`, `secret`, `token`,
+  `api_key` / `apikey`, `private_key`, or `credential` (case-insensitive), **or**
+- it's a `vars_prompt` entry with `private: true` (Ansible's default for
+  vars_prompt is private).
+
+So name sensitive variables accordingly (`db_password`, `api_token`,
+`vault_secret`) and they're handled safely with no extra config. Non-secret
+run-time vars are persisted (so scheduled runs can reuse them); secret ones are
+passed to the run only.
+
+## 4. Target with `hosts: all`
+
+Steward builds the inventory itself from the **target / group** the operator
+picks in the run form (or the single host on a host page). Your play should:
+
+```yaml
+  hosts: all          # run against whatever Steward scoped to
+```
+
+- Don't hardcode hostnames or rely on a checked-in inventory for Steward runs
+  (Steward generates a fresh inventory per run).
+- Per-host connection vars (`ansible_host`, plus anything you set on the target
+  in **Ansible → Inventory**) arrive as inventory host vars.
+- The run form's **Limit** / **Tags** map to `--limit` / `--tags`.
+
+## 5. Privileges & connection — don't put credentials in the playbook
+
+Steward supplies SSH and become for you:
+
+- Steady-state runs connect as the managed **`steward`** account using Steward's
+  managed key; that account has **passwordless sudo**. So just use
+  `become: true` where you need root.
+- First-contact provisioning uses a one-time bootstrap user/password the
+  operator enters (never stored).
+- Never embed SSH keys, passwords, or `ansible_user`/`ansible_ssh_pass` in the
+  playbook. Connection identity is global (Settings → Ansible) or per-target.
+
+## 6. Be idempotent
+
+Steward re-runs playbooks (updates, schedules, retries). Use modules that
+converge (state-based) rather than ad-hoc `command:`/`shell:` where possible, so
+re-runs are safe.
+
+---
+
+## What Steward reads from a playbook (summary)
+
+| Source in the playbook | What Steward does with it |
+|---|---|
+| `# description: <text>` comment | Description shown on selection (first match) |
+| first play `name:` | Description fallback |
+| `# steward:category: <text>` | Grouping badge in the browse list + run form |
+| `# steward:confirm: true` | Requires a confirmation tick before the run launches |
+| `vars:` scalar entries | Run-time fill-in fields (placeholder = default) |
+| `vars_prompt:` entries | Run-time fields (required if no default) |
+| secret-looking var name / `private: true` | Field masked + value not persisted |
+| `hosts:` | Expected to be `all`; Steward provides the inventory |
+
+Everything else (SSH user/key, become password, the inventory, `steward_token`
+etc. for the agent playbooks) is injected by Steward at run time.
+
+## Metadata comments
+
+Steward reads metadata from magic comments (Ansible rejects unknown play keys,
+so comments are the portable place). Two forms:
+
+- `# description: <text>` — the description (see §1).
+- `# steward:<key>: <value>` — the namespaced metadata block. First match per
+  key wins; keys are case-insensitive.
+
+**Implemented `# steward:` keys:**
+
+| Key | Example | Effect |
+|---|---|---|
+| `category` | `# steward:category: maintenance` | Free-text grouping label. Shown as a badge in the browse list and on the run form. Purely organizational. |
+| `confirm` | `# steward:confirm: true` | Marks the playbook as significant/destructive. The run form then requires an explicit confirmation tick before it can be launched. Use for data-loss-capable plays (prune with volumes, resets, etc.). Truthy values: `true`/`yes`/`1`/`on`. |
+| `description` | `# steward:description: ...` | Alias for `# description:` (the unprefixed form takes precedence if both exist). |
+
+```yaml
+---
+# description: Reclaim disk on Docker/Swarm nodes by pruning unused data.
+# steward:category: maintenance
+# steward:confirm: true
+- name: Docker system prune
+  hosts: all
+  ...
+```
+
+Other `# steward:<key>:` keys are simply ignored today — the namespace is
+reserved, so it's safe to add ones Steward doesn't yet understand without
+breaking anything, but only `category`, `confirm`, and `description` do something.
+
+## Minimal annotated example
+
+```yaml
+---
+# description: Restart a systemd service and confirm it came back up.
+- name: Restart a service
+  hosts: all
+  become: true
+  gather_facts: false
+  vars:
+    service_name: ""        # required-ish: operator fills it in the run form
+  tasks:
+    - name: Validate input
+      ansible.builtin.assert:
+        that: service_name | default('') | length > 0
+        fail_msg: "Set service_name."
+    - name: Restart
+      ansible.builtin.systemd:
+        name: "{{ service_name }}"
+        state: restarted
+    - name: Confirm active
+      ansible.builtin.command: "systemctl is-active {{ service_name }}"
+      changed_when: false
+```

 ## 1. Identity
 
-**Name:** Roundtable (dropping the "Fabled" prefix).
+**Name:** Steward (dropping the "Fabled" prefix).
 
-**Why the change:** The old name `FabledScryer` framed the app as a single seer peering into one crystal ball. The actual product is a gathering point — hosts, metrics, alerts, plugins, and dashboards from across the homelab converge here. "Roundtable" captures that: a place where the realm's tools and information meet.

 **Name conflict check:**
-- *Roundtable Software* — a Progress ABL tooling vendor. Different demographic, no overlap.
+- *Steward Software* — a Progress ABL tooling vendor. Different demographic, no overlap.
 - *Fabled.gg* — a virtual tabletop product. Closest concern, and the reason the "Fabled" prefix is dropped entirely to avoid confusion inside the tabletop/fantasy space.
 
-**Umbrella:** `fabledsword.com` remains the family umbrella domain; `git.fabledsword.com` remains the plugin catalog host. Roundtable becomes one product under that umbrella.

+"""Model-free builder for the swarm-aware container view.
+
+Merges two sources into one service-grouped, cluster-complete picture:
+  • docker_containers — real container rows, collected LOCAL-per-node, so each
+    carries the host (= node) it runs on plus its swarm service/node labels.
+  • DockerSwarmService.placement_json — the managers' cluster-wide task→node
+    counts, which include tasks on nodes that run no Steward agent (and so have
+    no container row of their own).
+
+For every swarm service we list the real replicas we have detail for, then add
+"ghost" replicas for the remaining placement count on each node (agent-less
+nodes). Non-swarm containers pass through grouped by host, unchanged.
+
+A third source, DockerSwarmService.tasks_json (agent ≥ 1.8.0), is Swarm's own
+record of each service's newest tasks. It decides which task containers are
+*superseded* — replaced by Swarm, so neither a replica nor a crash — and gives
+each service its failures across task retries and the error of its last
+failed task. Swarm restarts a task by creating a new one (a new container), so
+failures can only be counted per service, never per container.
+
+Kept model-free (no ORM imports) so it's unit-testable and safe to import in
+tests without the plugin-loader "table already defined" gotcha.

+"""A group's maintenance cadence (#5768): every week, its hosts updated one at
+a time, each rebooting only when its update needs it (or as the plan says).
+
+A plan names an inventory group, a weekday and a time in its time zone, and a
+window. At that time a run starts with the group's hosts in a fixed order. Each
+host gets a maintenance job (maintenance.py); the next host starts only when
+the last one is back in service: its agent posting, its swarm node ready and
+active, every replicated service at its replicas. A job that fails, or a host
+that doesn't come back into service, stops the run, and the host's
+maintenance_failed figure goes to 1 for an alert rule to catch. No host is
+started after the window; the run then stops and says which hosts it didn't
+reach.
+
+The decisions are model-free here (plans and runs are anything with the
+attributes); the database side is below them, and the plugin's minute tick
+drives it. Everything is on the rows, so a restart of Steward, or the reboot of
+the host it runs on, picks up where it was.

+"""Steward maintenance helper (#5766): runs as root, started by steward-maint.path
+when the host agent leaves a request, and does only what ACTIONS lists.
+
+The agent (an unprivileged user under NoNewPrivileges) can't update or reboot
+its host itself. It writes `<id>.json` = {"id", "action", ["node"]} into
+REQUESTS, the one directory it may write. This helper reads each request
+without following links, refuses anything outside the list, deletes it, does
+the action, and writes the outcome to RESULTS (root's own directory, which the
+agent reads back and reports to Steward). A stolen agent token can therefore
+make its host update, reboot or drain, and nothing else.
+
+One action only reads: `drives` (#5789) asks smartctl for each disk's health,
+which needs root, and writes a summary to DRIVES, never a result: it is not a
+maintenance job.
+
+Stdlib only; served by Steward at /plugins/host_agent/files/maint.py.

+"""A host's maintenance job, followed to its end through any restart (#5767).
+
+Steward plans and the host's agent acts: a job is one host's update and, only
+when the update says one is needed, its reboot, with the host's swarm node
+drained first and made active again after. Each action is one step the agent
+hands to its root helper (maint.py, #5766). Everything lives on the job's row,
+so Steward restarting, or the host Steward runs on rebooting, loses nothing:
+the next post from the agent carries the step's result, and the `started`
+event a host sends after booting is what completes a reboot.
+
+The transitions here are model-free (a job is anything with the attributes),
+so they're unit-tested without a database; routes.ingest and the scheduler's
+tick apply them.

+States: queued → updating → [draining →] rebooting → [undraining →] done,
