Sprint 2's TestProcessPendingJobs_RespectsClaimLimit asserted
that exactly 3 jobs sat in JobStatusRunning after a 10-row
ProcessPendingJobs sweep with SetClaimLimit(3). The CI run
landed 'running-job count = 0; want 3.'
Root cause: the mock's ClaimPendingJobs flips Pending → Running
on the 3 claimed rows (atomic-claim semantics). processJob then
calls renewalService.ProcessRenewalJob, which fails on the
mock cert-repo's not-found error and calls failJob → which
transitions the row from Running → Failed. By the time the
test assertion runs, no row is still in Running.
The load-bearing SCALE-001 invariant is 'the cap STOPPED at 3.'
Whether the 3 claimed rows ended up Running, Failed, or
Completed is irrelevant to the cap — what matters is that 7
rows STAYED in Pending for the next tick.
Fix: count non-Pending (= claimed) and still-Pending (= 10
minus claimed) separately. Assert claimed=3 and stillPending=7.
LastClaimLimit=3 assertion (already passing in the failed run)
also stays as the seam-propagation pin.
This is a test-fix only — the SCALE-001 production behavior
landed correctly in 037876f and is proven by the CI log line
'count=3 claim_limit=3'.
Sprint 2 unified-master-audit closure. Pre-fix the scheduler invoked
ClaimPendingJobs(ctx, "", 0). limit:0 loads every Pending row in a
single transaction — a 100K-job burst (cert-fleet sweep, post-outage
recovery, large agent-fleet first boot) marshalled the full queue
into process memory before boundedFanOut's semaphore could back-
pressure the upstream CAs.
Fix:
- SchedulerConfig.JobClaimLimit (env CERTCTL_SCHEDULER_JOB_CLAIM_LIMIT,
default 1000). ≤0 normalised to 1000 in SetClaimLimit — fail-safe
vs. legacy unlimited semantics.
- JobService.claimLimit threaded into the existing
ProcessPendingJobs flow; ClaimPendingJobs(ctx, "", s.claimLimit).
- cmd/server/main.go wires jobService.SetClaimLimit(cfg.Scheduler.JobClaimLimit).
- 'processing pending jobs' log line now includes claim_limit so
operators can spot the cap engaging (count == claim_limit ⇒
queue is running ahead of fan-out; bump CERTCTL_SCHEDULER_JOB_CLAIM_LIMIT
or CERTCTL_RENEWAL_CONCURRENCY).
- Test wiring keeps the legacy zero-value (unlimited) for byte-
for-byte compatibility with the existing 600+ JobService unit
tests — only production code goes through SetClaimLimit.
Regression coverage:
- mockJobRepo.LastClaimLimit records the limit passed through
ClaimPendingJobs so tests can pin the propagation.
- TestProcessPendingJobs_RespectsClaimLimit: 10 Pending rows,
SetClaimLimit(3), expect exactly 3 transition to Running plus
LastClaimLimit=3 on the mock.
- TestSetClaimLimit_NormalisesNonPositive: 0/-1/-1000 all
normalise to 1000.
Closes SCALE-001.
Mechanical sed across the main go.mod's module declaration, the f5-mock-icontrol
sub-module's go.mod, every Go file's import path (361 files), and a rebuild of
the checked-in f5-mock-icontrol binary so its embedded build-info reflects the
new module path. No behavior change.
Choice B from cowork/transfer-certctl-to-org.md, executed 2026-05-04. Choice A
(keep module path declared as github.com/shankar0123/certctl regardless of
repo URL) shipped on the day of the org transfer (2026-05-03) since we had no
external Go consumers; this commit closes that deferral.
Backward-compat: GitHub HTTP redirects continue to forward
github.com/shankar0123/certctl → github.com/certctl-io/certctl at the URL
level, but Go's module proxy uses the path declared in go.mod as the
canonical name. Pre-fix, anyone trying `go get github.com/certctl-io/certctl/...`
hit a "module path mismatch" error because go.mod said
github.com/shankar0123/certctl and the URL they fetched it from said
certctl-io/certctl. Post-fix, the canonical name and the URL agree, so
go get / go install / external Go consumers / Go-tooling integrations
work cleanly via either the new path (preferred) or the old path (which
redirects and Go follows the redirect for source fetch).
Anyone still importing the old path inside their own code keeps working
provided they update their go.mod's `require` line to match — the module
path declared in their consumer's go.sum / go.mod is the authoritative
import name, so a mass sed across their import statements is the migration
on the consumer side. No external consumers exist today.
Diff shape:
361 *.go files — import path replacement only
2 go.mod — module declaration replacement only
1 binary — deploy/test/f5-mock-icontrol/f5-mock-icontrol rebuilt
so embedded build-info reflects the new path (8618965 vs
8618933 bytes; 32-byte diff is the build-info change)
Total: 364 files, 730 insertions / 730 deletions, net-zero size, pure
mechanical substitution.
Verification:
gofmt: 17 files needed re-alignment after sed (the new path is one char
shorter than the old, so column-aligned import groups drifted). Applied
`gofmt -w` to fix.
go mod tidy: clean exit on both modules.
go vet ./...: clean exit.
go build ./...: clean exit.
go test -short -count=1 on representative packages: all green
(internal/domain, internal/validation, internal/crypto, internal/crypto/signer,
cmd/agent). Test output now reads `ok github.com/certctl-io/certctl/...`
confirming the module path resolves correctly.
binary: f5-mock-icontrol rebuilt; `strings | grep shankar0123` returns
nothing; `strings | grep certctl-io/certctl` shows the new module path
embedded in build-info.
Files intentionally NOT touched in this commit:
README.md / CHANGELOG.md / docs/ / etc. — already swept to certctl-io
URLs in commit 0729ee4 (the post-transfer URL refresh). This commit is
purely the Go-tooling layer.
Scarf pixels (`shankar0123.docker.scarf.sh/...`) — Scarf-account
namespace, not a Go import or GitHub repo URL. Stays.
This is a non-blocking, non-customer-impacting change. Operators pulling
container images, running `make verify`, hitting the API, or installing the
agent see no functional difference. Only Go-tooling consumers (none today)
are affected, and they're enabled — not broken — by this commit.
Mechanical reformat. The new 'gofmt drift' CI step (added in
ci-pipeline-cleanup Phase 4, commit 0f205a8) surfaced 111 files
with accumulated gofmt drift across cmd/, internal/, and deploy/test/.
Each file's diff is gofmt-standard: whitespace adjustments, intra-
group import sorting (alphabetical by import path within blank-line-
separated groups), and struct-tag column alignment. No semantic
changes — verified via 'git diff --ignore-all-space' which shows only
the line-position deltas from import reordering.
The gate stays in place after this commit. Going forward it catches
gofmt drift at PR time.
Operator decision answered as Option A: JobService.RetryFailedJobs is
now wired into the scheduler as an always-on 10th loop. Prior to this
commit the method was implemented, unit-tested, and exported but had
zero runtime callers — any job that transitioned to status=Failed stayed
Failed forever regardless of how many attempts it had remaining.
Scheduler — 10th loop:
internal/scheduler/scheduler.go grows a jobRetryLoop alongside the
existing nine loops (renewal, jobs, health, notifications, short-lived,
network scan, digest, health check, cloud discovery). The loop follows
the established run-immediately-then-tick pattern (same shape as
jobProcessorLoop), gated by a sync/atomic.Bool idempotency guard and
joined into the scheduler's sync.WaitGroup so WaitForCompletion drains
it on graceful shutdown. Each tick runs under a 2-minute context
timeout mirroring jobProcessorLoop's opCtx budget. The runJobRetry
helper invokes jobService.RetryFailedJobs(ctx, 3) — the advisory
maxRetries cap is belt-and-suspenders; per-job eligibility is still
enforced inside the service via Attempts < MaxAttempts.
The JobServicer scheduler-interface gains RetryFailedJobs so the
scheduler's dependency surface stays explicit and mockable.
Service — audit trail per retry:
internal/service/job.go:RetryFailedJobs now emits an audit event for
every Failed→Pending transition. Following the house convention used
by all scheduler-emitted events, actor='system' and actorType=
domain.ActorTypeSystem; action='job_retry'; details capture
old_status, new_status, attempts, max_attempts. JobService carries an
optional *AuditService (SetAuditService) that nil-guards to preserve
test-wiring ergonomics — existing tests that construct JobService
without an audit service continue to pass unchanged.
Config — env var with sane default:
internal/config/config.go:SchedulerConfig grows RetryInterval, wired
to CERTCTL_SCHEDULER_RETRY_INTERVAL with a 5-minute default. Validate
rejects intervals below 1 second (matches other scheduler interval
validators).
Server wiring:
cmd/server/main.go calls jobService.SetAuditService(auditService)
after JobService construction and sched.SetJobRetryInterval(
cfg.Scheduler.RetryInterval) alongside the other SetXxxInterval calls.
Regression coverage:
internal/service/job_test.go (3 new)
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_EligibleJobTransitionsAndAudits
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_SkipsJobsAtMaxAttempts
- TestJobService_RetryFailedJobs_NoAuditServiceOK
internal/scheduler/scheduler_test.go (3 new)
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_CallsService
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_IdempotencyGuard
- TestScheduler_JobRetryLoop_WaitForCompletion
The service tests assert status transitions, attempt-cap short-
circuiting, and audit event shape (actor='system', action='job_retry',
details keys). The scheduler tests assert the loop invokes the service,
the atomic.Bool guard skips overlapping ticks with the expected
'still running, skipping tick' log, and WaitForCompletion drains the
in-flight tick on Stop.
Residual follow-up (not in scope for this commit):
internal/service/renewal.go:RetryFailedJobs is a parallel dead-code
duplicate of the same logic on RenewalService — untested and has no
runtime caller. The audit finding called this out as 'implemented
twice'. Removing it is a separate cleanup and does not block the
Option-A wiring this commit delivers.
Files:
cmd/server/main.go — SetAuditService + SetJobRetryInterval
internal/config/config.go — RetryInterval field + env + validate
internal/scheduler/scheduler.go — 10th loop, interface, field, setter
internal/scheduler/scheduler_test.go — 3 new scheduler-loop tests
internal/service/job.go — RetryFailedJobs audit emission + SetAuditService
internal/service/job_test.go — 3 new service-layer tests
Closes the remaining P1 gaps from coverage-gap-audit.md (M-001/M-002/M-003/M-006)
on top of the C-001/C-002 ownership + agent-FK contract fixes landed in
a53a4b8. The work lands as a single commit spanning server, docs, tests,
and the React client.
M-002 — Named API keys with per-key actor propagation
* Migration 000014 adds the 'api_keys' table (id, name, hash,
principal, role, created_at, last_used_at, disabled_at) so every
credential carries an identifiable principal instead of the
opaque 'anonymous'/'api-key' sentinel.
* Auth middleware now rotates through configured keys, performs
constant-time hash comparison, stamps 'last_used_at', and emits
an actor struct via contextWithActor(). The audit middleware,
bulk-revocation handler, approval handlers, and MCP tool layer
now read the principal off the context and persist it on every
audit_events row.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/api/middleware/audit_test.go — actor propagation,
principal redaction for disabled keys, anonymous fallback for
unauthenticated endpoints.
- internal/api/handler/bulk_revocation_handler_test.go,
job_handler_test.go — principal-on-audit assertions.
M-003 — Authorization gates (Phase B)
* Approval handler rejects self-approval / self-rejection with 403
when the actor principal equals the job's requested_by field.
* Bulk revocation is gated behind the 'admin' role; operators and
viewers receive 403.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/service/job_test.go — TestApproveJob_NotSelf,
TestRejectJob_NotSelf.
- internal/api/handler/bulk_revocation_handler_test.go —
TestBulkRevoke_RequiresAdmin, TestBulkRevoke_AdminSucceeds.
M-006 — RFC-compliant CRL/OCSP on the unauthenticated .well-known mux
* Per RFC 8615, relying parties cannot reasonably be asked to
authenticate against the issuing certctl instance to retrieve
revocation material. CRL and OCSP move off the authenticated
'/api/v1/crl*' and '/api/v1/ocsp/*' paths onto:
GET /.well-known/pki/crl/{issuer_id}
Content-Type: application/pkix-crl (RFC 5280 §5)
GET /.well-known/pki/ocsp/{issuer_id}/{serial}
Content-Type: application/ocsp-response (RFC 6960)
* Non-standard JSON CRL shape is removed; only DER is served.
* Short-lived certificate exemption (profile TTL < 1h → skip
CRL/OCSP) is preserved; the response simply omits the serial.
* Routes are registered on the unauthenticated 'finalHandler' mux
in cmd/server/main.go alongside EST ('/.well-known/est/*') and
SCEP ('/scep'). Legacy authenticated paths return 404.
* Regression coverage:
- internal/api/handler/certificate_handler_test.go — content
type, DER parseability, 404 for unknown issuer.
- internal/api/handler/adversarial_path_test.go — unauthenticated
access asserted for CRL, OCSP, EST, SCEP.
- internal/api/router/router_test.go — route-table assertion
that '.well-known/pki/*', '.well-known/est/*', and '/scep' are
mounted on the unauthenticated branch.
M-001 — Auto-closed by M-002
EST and SCEP were already registered on the unauthenticated
'finalHandler' mux; the router comment at
internal/api/router/router.go:247 now matches reality. The
adversarial-path tests above lock the behavior in.
Verification (all gates green):
* go vet ./... — clean
* go build ./... — ok
* go test -short ./... (55+ packages) — all pass
* web/ : npm test (225 Vitest tests) — all pass
* web/ : npx tsc --noEmit — clean
* grep sweep for '/api/v1/(crl|ocsp)' — 13 surviving hits,
all intentional M-006 tombstone/relocation comments.
Documentation:
* coverage-gap-audit.md — status flips M-001/M-002/M-003/M-006 →
Fixed, with per-finding resolution paragraphs citing regression
test IDs. (Audit file lives outside this repo; see cowork root.)
* CLAUDE.md Project Status line updated with the auth-unification
closure note.
* docs/features.md, docs/architecture.md, docs/quickstart.md,
docs/concepts.md, docs/connectors.md, docs/test-env.md,
docs/testing-guide.md, docs/compliance-*.md, docs/demo-advanced.md
— refreshed for the new '.well-known/pki/*' namespace and named
API keys.
* api/openapi.yaml — documents the new unauthenticated endpoints
and removes the legacy '/api/v1/crl*' + '/api/v1/ocsp/*' paths.
.gitignore: adds '/.gocache/' and '/.gomodcache/' for the session-
scoped Go caches so they never enter the tree.
Collapse CancelJobWithContext into CancelJob; eliminate 10 context.Background()
hits across the Job+Notification+Audit service cluster by threading ctx
through their handler-facing service interfaces.
Services (ctx-first):
- service/job.go: ListJobs, GetJob, CancelJob, ApproveJob, RejectJob now
accept ctx; the CancelJobWithContext wrapper is removed (handler callers
continue to invoke CancelJob, now ctx-aware).
- service/notification.go: ListNotifications, GetNotification, MarkAsRead
accept ctx.
- service/audit.go: ListAuditEvents, GetAuditEvent accept ctx.
Handlers (interface + callsites):
- handler/jobs.go, handler/notifications.go, handler/audit.go: local
service interfaces updated, r.Context() threaded at every callsite.
Tests:
- Mock services updated to match the new interfaces (ctx accepted and
ignored via '_ context.Context' first parameter; Fn closure fields
unchanged).
- job_test.go / notification_test.go callsites thread context.Background()
to match production shape.
Verification:
go build ./... ok
go vet ./... ok
go test -short ./... ok
go test -race -short ./... ok
golangci-lint run ./... 0 issues
Locked decisions from the M-2 plan:
D-1 ctx-only signatures (no dual forms)
D-4 preserve handler method names facing the router
D-5 domain types stay ctx-free
Audit complete. Commit: 1f6cf0eafa. Sections: 12. Findings: 2/7/10/4/6.
Replace static env-var-based issuer wiring with GUI-driven dynamic
configuration stored encrypted in PostgreSQL. Operators can now
configure, test, enable/disable, and manage issuers from the dashboard
without restarting the server.
Key changes:
- AES-256-GCM encryption for sensitive issuer config at rest (PBKDF2
key derivation with 100k iterations)
- Dynamic IssuerRegistry with sync.RWMutex replacing static map
- Connector factory pattern (issuerfactory.NewFromConfig) replacing
140 lines of static wiring in main.go
- Migration 000009: encrypted_config, last_tested_at, test_status,
source columns on issuers table
- Env var seeding on first boot with ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING
- Registry Rebuild() for atomic map swap after CRUD operations
- Issuer type validation against domain constants on Create
- Audit trail for test connection results
- Conditional seeding for step-ca/OpenSSL (only when env vars set)
- GUI: source badge, connection test status on issuer detail page

Private keys never leave agent infrastructure. Agents generate ECDSA P-256
key pairs locally, store them with 0600 permissions, and submit only the CSR
(public key) to the control plane. New AwaitingCSR job state pauses
renewal/issuance jobs until the agent submits its CSR. Server-side keygen
retained behind CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE=server for demo/development.
Key changes:
- Dual keygen mode via CERTCTL_KEYGEN_MODE (agent default, server for demo)
- AwaitingCSR job state with CommonName/SANs in work response
- Agent ECDSA P-256 keygen, local key storage, CSR-only submission
- CompleteAgentCSRRenewal server-side flow for agent-submitted CSRs
- DeploymentRequest.KeyPEM for agent-provided keys during deployment
- Dockerfile.agent creates /var/lib/certctl/keys with correct ownership
