Adds a new "private" service mode for the reverse proxy: services reachable exclusively over the embedded WireGuard tunnel, gated by per-peer group membership instead of operator auth schemes.
Wire contract
- ProxyMapping.private (field 13): the proxy MUST call ValidateTunnelPeer and fail closed; operator schemes are bypassed.
- ProxyCapabilities.private (4) + supports_private_service (5): capability gate. Management never streams private mappings to proxies that don't claim the capability; the broadcast path applies the same filter via filterMappingsForProxy.
- ValidateTunnelPeer RPC: resolves an inbound tunnel IP to a peer, checks the peer's groups against service.AccessGroups, and mints a session JWT on success. checkPeerGroupAccess fails closed when a private service has empty AccessGroups.
- ValidateSession/ValidateTunnelPeer responses now carry peer_group_ids + peer_group_names so the proxy can authorise policy-aware middlewares without an extra management round-trip.
- ProxyInboundListener + SendStatusUpdate.inbound_listener: per-account inbound listener state surfaced to dashboards.
- PathTargetOptions.direct_upstream (11): bypass the embedded NetBird client and dial the target via the proxy host's network stack for upstreams reachable without WireGuard.
Data model
- Service.Private (bool) + Service.AccessGroups ([]string, JSON- serialised). Validate() rejects bearer auth on private services. Copy() deep-copies AccessGroups. pgx getServices loads the columns.
- DomainConfig.Private threaded into the proxy auth middleware. Request handler routes private services through forwardWithTunnelPeer and returns 403 on validation failure.
- Account-level SynthesizePrivateServiceZones (synthetic DNS) and injectPrivateServicePolicies (synthetic ACL) gate on len(svc.AccessGroups) > 0.
Proxy
- /netbird proxy --private (embedded mode) flag; Config.Private in proxy/lifecycle.go.
- Per-account inbound listener (proxy/inbound.go) binding HTTP/HTTPS on the embedded NetBird client's WireGuard tunnel netstack.
- proxy/internal/auth/tunnel_cache: ValidateTunnelPeer response cache with single-flight de-duplication and per-account eviction.
- Local peerstore short-circuit: when the inbound IP isn't in the account roster, deny fast without an RPC.
- proxy/server.go reports SupportsPrivateService=true and redacts the full ProxyMapping JSON from info logs (auth_token + header-auth hashed values now only at debug level).
Identity forwarding
- ValidateSessionJWT returns user_id, email, method, groups, group_names. sessionkey.Claims carries Email + Groups + GroupNames so the proxy can stamp identity onto upstream requests without an extra management round-trip on every cookie-bearing request.
- CapturedData carries userEmail / userGroups / userGroupNames; the proxy stamps X-NetBird-User and X-NetBird-Groups on r.Out from the authenticated identity (strips client-supplied values first to prevent spoofing).
- AccessLog.UserGroups: access-log enrichment captures the user's group memberships at write time so the dashboard can render group context without reverse-resolving stale memberships.
OpenAPI/dashboard surface
- ReverseProxyService gains private + access_groups; ReverseProxyCluster gains private + supports_private. ReverseProxyTarget target_type enum gains "cluster". ServiceTargetOptions gains direct_upstream. ProxyAccessLog gains user_groups.

This PR fixes configuration inconsistencies and updates the store engine type usage throughout the management code. Key changes include:
- Replacing outdated server.Config references with types.Config and updating related flag variables (e.g. types.MgmtConfigPath).
- Converting engine constants (SqliteStoreEngine, PostgresStoreEngine, MysqlStoreEngine) to use types.Engine for consistent type–safety.
- Adjusting various test and migration code paths to correctly reference the new configuration and engine types.
Fix a bug where the post context was canceled before sending metrics to the server.
The interval time was decreased, and an optional environment variable NETBIRD_METRICS_INTERVAL_IN_SECONDS was added to control the interval time.
* update doc URL
This PR adds `gosec` linter with the following checks disabled:
- G102: Bind to all interfaces
- G107: Url provided to HTTP request as taint input
- G112: Potential slowloris attack
- G114: Use of net/http serve function that has no support for setting timeouts
- G204: Audit use of command execution
- G401: Detect the usage of DES, RC4, MD5 or SHA1
- G402: Look for bad TLS connection settings
- G404: Insecure random number source (rand)
- G501: Import blocklist: crypto/md5
- G505: Import blocklist: crypto/sha1
We have complaints related to the checks above. They have to be addressed separately.
* Add gocritic linter
`gocritic` provides diagnostics that check for bugs, performance, and style issues
We disable the following checks:
- commentFormatting
- captLocal
- deprecatedComment
This PR contains many `//nolint:gocritic` to disable `appendAssign`.
* Move StoreKind under own StoreConfig configuration parameter
* Rename StoreKind option to Engine
* Rename StoreKind internal methods and types to Engine
* Add template engine value test

Restructure data handling for improved performance and flexibility.
Introduce 'G'-prefixed fields to represent Gorm relations, simplifying resource management.
Eliminate complexity in lookup tables for enhanced query and write speed.
Enable independent operations on data structures, requiring adjustments in the Store interface and Account Manager.
Replace Peer.Key as internal identifier with a randomly generated Peer.ID
in the Management service.
Every group now references peers by ID instead of a public key.
Every route now references peers by ID instead of a public key.
FileStore does store.json file migration on startup by generating Peer.ID and replacing
all Peer.Key identifier references .
This will help us understand usage on self-hosted deployments
