 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.12.1] - 2026-08-01
+
+### Changed
+- Bumped `body-parser` 2.2.2 → 2.3.0 (Dependabot #175).
+- Bumped `ejs` and `brace-expansion` (Dependabot #179, security maintenance).
+
+## [1.12.0] - 2026-08-01
+
+### Fixed
+- Changed UNIX socket permission in `unix_socket_json.js` to `666` so OpenResty Nginx workers running as `nobody` can resolve targets properly.
+
+## [1.9.0] - 2026-07-30
+
+### Added
+- **`app_super_admin` cross-app group** recognized as a global admin (`conf.auth.adminGroups`), same group also recognized by sso-manager-node and jump-host, and by `ldap-client`'s SSSD access filter (SSH login on every host).
+
+### Changed
+- **Users and Permissions pages**: the always-visible sidebar "Add" forms are now an "Add User"/"Add Permission" button in the list header that opens an `app.modal` dialog, matching the hosts.ejs convention.
+- **Let's Encrypt ACME account key** now defaults to the already-persisted `/data` volume instead of a CWD-relative path (`./le_key.cert` -> `/app/le_key.cert` in the container), which was lost on every image rebuild.
+
+## [1.8.0] - 2026-07-28
+
+### Added
+- **Users backed by SSO/OIDC login are now marked "External (SSO)"** and read-only: their password-change control is hidden, and `PUT /password/:username` rejects with 403 server-side. Deletion stays allowed. Redis user-backend only.
+- **`app.util.revealItem()`** (shared `app-base.js`): scrolls a just-added/-edited element into view and flashes its background. Wired into the Users/Permissions create flows.
+
+### Changed
+- **All pages now wrap their content in a standard-width container**, matching sso-manager-node instead of rendering full-bleed.
+- **Users and Permissions pages converted from bare `<table>`s to the card-grid convention** already used on the Groups page.
+- `@simpleworkjs/frontend` bumped to `^0.2.7`.
+
+## [1.7.0] - 2026-07-28
+
+### Added
+- **API tokens: "+ New Token" modal button (replacing the always-visible inline create-form card) and a new Edit modal** — continues the cross-app API-token UI unification started in jump-host. The Edit modal's footer shows real created-by/on data; the `PUT /api-token/:id` route already fully supported editing, so no backend change was needed.
+
+### Fixed
+- **Creating an API token didn't show the "save this secret now" reveal modal** — the create flow called `app.modal.close()` immediately before `app.modal.open()` (to show the secret) in the same tick; since `app.modal` is a singleton, that collided with Bootstrap's hide-transition guard and the reveal modal silently never appeared.
+
+## [1.6.0] - 2026-07-28
+
+### Added
+- **Host modal: footer with created/updated-by/on metadata, linkable `/hosts/{host}` URL** — migrated onto the shared `app.modal` component (`@simpleworkjs/frontend` 0.2.6), continuing the entity-modal standardization started in sso-manager-node. Kept the existing 6-tab layout (General/TLS & Wildcard/Traffic/Headers/Access/Authentication) unchanged.
+
+### Fixed
+- **The Let's-Encrypt challenge-type/wildcard-matching visibility logic could stop reacting to the hostname field after the first Add/Edit** — its `keyup` handler was bound once directly against a selector captured at page load; now delegated so it survives the modal being rebuilt on every open.
+- **The SSO allow-list autocomplete (users/groups) could go empty starting on the second Add/Edit** — its backing `<datalist>`s are rebuilt fresh on every modal open now, so the suggestions are refetched each time too.
+
+## [1.5.3] - 2026-07-28
+
+### Fixed
+- **`formAJAX`'s loading indicator showed literal HTML**, not a spinner — same fix as sso-manager-node's companion release. Replaced with plain text.
+
+## [1.5.2] - 2026-07-28
+
+### Added
+- **Regression test**: a static check across all views/client-side scripts fails CI if any native `alert()`/`confirm()`/`prompt()` call appears — these block all further browser events on the page and were fully removed in 1.5.1.
+
+## [1.5.1] - 2026-07-27
+
+### Fixed
+- **Removed native `confirm()` calls in `revokeToken`/`rotateToken`** (`profile.ejs`), replacing them with `app.messages.confirm`. Native `confirm()` blocks all further browser events on the page (discovered live, mid browser-verification of sso-manager-node's equivalent flow, where it froze the tab).
+
+## [1.5.0] - 2026-07-27
+
+### Changed
+- **Adopted `@simpleworkjs/frontend`'s `app.messages`, `app.modal`, and `app.validate` modules**, replacing the vendored `app.util.actionMessage`/`actionConfirm` in `public/lib/js/app-base.js` and the vendored `public/lib/js/val.js`. Message content is now HTML-escaped, and `app.messages.action` falls back to a page-wide toast when there's no inline `.actionMessage` target. proxy's `host`/`target`/`hostname` wildcard-DNS validation rules (mirroring `utils/hostname_validate.js`) moved to `public/js/app.js`, registered via `$.validateSettings`, since they're proxy-specific and don't belong in the shared package's generic rule set. `app.api`/`app.auth`/`app.pubsub`/`app.socket` are untouched.
+
+## [1.4.0] - 2026-07-26
+
+### Changed
+- **Unified the front-end UI shell across the three theta42 apps.** `views/top.ejs`, `views/bottom.ejs` and `public/lib/js/app-base.js` are now byte-identical in sso-manager-node, proxy and jump-host, so the apps look and behave the same and a shell change lands in one edit per repo instead of three divergent ones. Everything that differs between the apps moved into a new `nodejs/utils/ui.js`, exposed to every render as `ui` via `app.locals`: nav items and the groups that may see them, footer repo/license/docs/Terms links, favicon, the profile and post-logout targets, and whether the update banner exists at all.
+- **One nav-gating model everywhere.** `app-base.js` reveals `.group-required-<cn>` elements for each group the current user is in, read from `GET /api/user/me`. sso-manager-node reports LDAP DNs in `memberOf` and the OIDC clients report CNs in `groups`; both normalise to CNs client-side, and the clients' effective-rights `isAdmin` flag is exposed as a synthetic `admin` group — so one gating model covers a group-based provider and boolean-admin clients without either app learning the other's response shape.
+- **`GET /api/user/me` is fetched once per page load and cached** (`app.auth.loadUser`). The nav, per-view `forceLogin` and every group-gated element read that one promise instead of issuing their own request.
+- `app.auth.isLoggedIn` is dual-mode: it returns a Promise **and** invokes an optional node-style callback, so the async and callback call styles both work against one shared `top.ejs`.
+- `app.auth.forceLogin` no longer uses `$.holdReady` (removed in jQuery 4). An unauthenticated user is redirected to `/login?redirect=<path>`; group requirements are still enforced, and `logOut` now only clears the session, leaving the destination to the caller (`ui.logoutRedirect`).
+- Dependency alignment across all three apps: `jquery` `^4.0.0` and `ejs` `^3.1.10`.
+
+### Fixed
+- **`app.api.delete` dropped its callback when called by `formAJAX`.** `formAJAX` always passes the serialized form as the second argument, so a DELETE-method form's callback landed in the data slot and never ran. `delete` now accepts both `(url, callback)` and `(url, data, callback)`.
+- **`app.api.post`/`put` referenced an undefined `callback2`** and threw when handed a non-function callback. Both are now dual-mode Promise/callback.
+- **The login page's "reveal the card once we know you're logged out" branch threw** (`Cannot read properties of null`) whenever the logged-in check answered before the parser reached that element — which it always did without a stored token. It now runs on DOM ready.
+- **`logInRedirect` on the legacy `/login/<path>` form kept only the path.** The OIDC provider routes an unauthenticated authorization request through `/login/oauth/authorize?client_id=…&state=…`; dropping the query there loses the entire authorization request. The suffix form now preserves its query string.
+
+### Added
+- `.group-required { display: none }` in `public/css/styles.css`, the base rule the shared gating model reveals against.
+- Admin-only nav items lost their inline `display: none` in favour of that class, and the brand link points at `/` instead of `#`.
+
+### Verified
+- Browser-verified against a full theta-env stack (sso-manager + proxy + jump-host): every top-level page renders with a clean console; nav gating is correct for admin and non-admin; `forceLogin`'s onboarding and group gates fire; `val.js` blocks a weak password and accepts a strong one through a real form submit; the DELETE-method forms work; and the OIDC login round trip (authorize with PKCE -> login -> consent -> callback -> token fragment) completes on both OIDC clients.
+
+## [1.3.0] - 2026-07-25
+
+### Added
+- Adopted the shared `@simpleworkjs/*` packages published under the simpleworkjs org, replacing this app's byte-identical forks of the same code so the theta42 apps share one codebase and API schema:
+  - `@simpleworkjs/oidc-client` — the OIDC client (session models, auth router, OIDC utils, safe-redirect, local-admin bootstrap). Deleted the local `utils/oidc.js`, `utils/safe_redirect.js`, `models/oidc_state.js`, `models/token.js`, `models/auth.js`, and `routes/auth.js`; `models/index.js` now wires the factory. The per-host SSO in `routes/host_auth.js` is unchanged but consumes the shared OIDC utils.
+  - `@simpleworkjs/ldap` — the ldapts client + RFC 4515/4514 escaping.
+  - `@simpleworkjs/app-stack` — unified `build_info` (`{buildVersion, buildHash, buildYear}`) and the `static-modules` mounting helper. `utils/build_info.js` and the static-modules loop in `routes/render.js` now use the shared helpers.
+
+### Security
+- **LDAP filter injection in `User.get`.** The user lookup built its search filter by interpolating `data.username` raw into `(&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(uid=<username>))`. A username containing `*`, `(`, `)`, `\`, or NUL could widen or alter the filter (e.g. `*` → match-all). The filter value is now passed through `escapeFilter` from `@simpleworkjs/ldap` (RFC 4515 escaping).
+
+### Changed
+- Dependency alignment: `model-redis` `^1.5` → `^1.6.0`, `ldapts` `^8.1.2` → `^8.1.8`. The four new `@simpleworkjs/*` deps resolve from the npm registry (`^1.0.0`); no `file:`/`link:` entries in the lockfile, so `npm ci` is clean in docker builds.
+- `build_info` export shape changed from `{commit, version}` to `{buildVersion, buildHash, buildYear}` (the shared shape used by all three apps). The `/health` endpoint and footer now report `buildVersion`/`buildHash`.
+
+## [1.2.2] - 2026-07-21
+
+### Fixed
+- Multi-target load balancing (added in 1.2.0) crashed every request to a load-balanced host: `ops/nginx_conf/targetinfo.lua` required a nonexistent `resty.balancer.round_robin` module. The `lua-resty-balancer` rock installed by the Dockerfile/`install.sh` doesn't provide that path — it provides `resty.roundrobin` (constructed as `roundrobin:new(nodes)`, not `:new()` + `:reinit(nodes)`). Fixed `targetinfo.lua` to use the real module and API; verified end-to-end that requests now round-robin across targets with no Lua errors.
+
+## [1.2.1] - 2026-07-21
+
+### Fixed
+- The bootstrap anti-lockout admin account was always created as `proxyadmin2` regardless of `conf.auth.adminUsers`, while `migrations/permission_bootstrap.js` grants the global-admin permission to `conf.auth.adminUsers[0]`. If an operator customized `adminUsers` away from the default, the bootstrapped account and the permissioned account were two different (non-matching) usernames, so the anti-lockout account ended up with no admin access. `models/user_redis.js` now derives the bootstrap username from `conf.auth.adminUsers[0]` (falling back to `proxyadmin2`), matching `permission_bootstrap.js`.
+- Corrected a `secrets.js.example` comment that claimed the bootstrap admin's password "defaults to the username itself" — it actually generates a random password printed to the container log on first boot.
+
+### Changed
+- Refreshed all README screenshots (hosts, per-host SSO auth, per-host basic auth) against the current UI, and added a new load-balancing screenshot for the multi-target feature.
+
+## [1.2.0] - 2026-07-21
+
+### Added
+- Multi-target load balancing: hosts can now specify additional backend targets (`IP:port`, one per line) alongside the primary target; the proxy distributes requests across all of them round-robin via `lua-resty-balancer`. Fixes #47.
+
+## [1.1.17] - 2026-07-20
+
+### Fixed
+- An existing single-label subdomain host (e.g. `sso.nl.wgnode.com`) could not be attached to a wildcard cert added later (e.g. `*.nl.wgnode.com`): `Host.lookUpWildcardParent()` only checked the wildcard-as-child position (the wildcard's own base domain) and missed the far more common wildcard-as-sibling case, so the edit form's "Parent Wildcard" option stayed permanently greyed out. It now checks both positions, and a regression test covers the sibling case.
+
+## [1.1.16] - 2026-07-18
+
+### Changed
+- Public-release packaging: removed `"private": true` from `nodejs/package.json`, corrected the repository URL to `https://github.com/theta42/proxy.git`, and fixed the MIT `LICENSE` copyright line.
+- Genericized committed defaults in `conf/base.js` and `conf/development.js`: LDAP now defaults to `ldap://localhost` with `dc=example,dc=com`, and OIDC endpoints default to `https://sso.example.com` instead of internal theta42 infrastructure.
+- The bootstrap `proxyadmin2` account now gets a random, one-time password when `auth.localAdminPass` is unset, instead of the well-known default `proxyadmin2`. The password is printed to the log on first creation and can be made deterministic by setting `auth.localAdminPass` in the secrets file.
+
+### Security
+- Sanitized rendered docs HTML via `xss` in `routes/docs.js` so malicious markdown cannot inject scripts or other dangerous markup into the in-app docs viewer.
+- The Unix socket JSON-RPC socket is now created with mode `660` instead of world-writable `777`.
+
+### Fixed
+- The global error handler no longer leaks `err.keys`, stack traces, or other internal details in JSON responses; only `name` and `message` are returned to clients.
+- `DEPLOYMENT.md` and `docs/docker.md` now correctly describe the `CONF_SECRETS` env-var mechanism instead of the old symlink behavior.
+
+## [1.1.15] - 2026-07-18
+
+### Changed
+- `ops/install.sh` now installs to `/opt/theta42/proxy` (was `/var/www/proxy`) and seeds `/etc/proxy/secrets.js` from `secrets.js.example` on first run (never overwritten on later runs), instead of requiring a manual `nodejs/conf/secrets.js` edit inside the repo checkout. `ops/proxy.service` sets `CONF_SECRETS=/etc/proxy/secrets.js` to match.
+- `install.sh` now prints the version it's updating from/to (or "Already up to date") on every run, instead of updating silently.
+
+### Fixed
+- `install.sh` could hang indefinitely on a fresh host if a base package pulled in `tzdata` as a new dependency — it prompted interactively for a timezone with no TTY attached. Set `DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive`.
+
+## [1.1.14] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Changed
+- Bumped `@simpleworkjs/conf` to 1.2.0 and `jq-repeat` to 2.2.0. The Docker entrypoint now sets the new `CONF_SECRETS` env var to point directly at a mounted `proxy-secrets.js` instead of symlinking it into `/app/conf/secrets.js` — the app no longer needs write access to its own `conf/` directory to pick up mounted secrets.
+
+## [1.1.13] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- Four new plain-language docs aimed at less technical readers, replacing the system-design-level Architecture/Installation docs as the target of most card help links: **Hosts & HTTPS**, **DNS Providers**, **Users, Groups & Permissions**, and **API Tokens**. Each links onward to the deeper technical reference for readers who want it; the technical docs link back the other way too. The personal-access-token card (previously missed entirely) now has a help link.
+
+### Fixed
+- The in-app docs viewer rendered every `docs/*.md` page with a garbled heading and a stray horizontal rule at the top — Jekyll front matter (meant only for the GitHub Pages build) was never stripped before being handed to the markdown renderer. Also fixed: cross-doc links never resolved in-app, since this viewer serves docs at `/docs/<slug>` with no `.html` suffix — they're now rewritten to the correct in-app URL (by registered slug, falling back to the doc's real filename), the same way image paths already were.
+
+## [1.1.12] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Fixed
+- The host edit form's "Parent Wildcard" option stayed greyed out even when a valid wildcard actually existed for that host, so an already-created host could never be switched onto one from the edit modal (only brand-new hosts, via the field's `keyup` handler, ever saw it become available). The underlying `/host/lookup/:item` check also had the same self-match issue as the recently-fixed backend bug: it resolved an already-existing host to its own record instead of a sibling wildcard. Added a dedicated `/host/wildcard-parent/:item` endpoint that checks both directions, and the edit form now actually runs the check when it opens.
+- Fixed an nginx startup warning: `the "listen ... http2" directive is deprecated, use the "http2" directive instead`. Migrated to the standalone `http2 on;` directive (nginx 1.25.1+).
+
+## [1.1.11] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Changed
+- Moved the help (❓) link out of the global header and onto each relevant card individually (Proxy List, Add/Edit host, Add DNS Provider, Dynamic A Records, Add New User, User List, Add Permission, Permissions, Add Group) — each now deep-links straight to the doc that actually covers it, instead of one generic header icon.
+
+## [1.1.10] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- A help icon (❓) in the top-right header now deep-links to the doc most relevant to the current page (falls back to the docs index elsewhere).
+- The in-app docs viewer (`/docs`) is now searchable — a simple line-substring search over the same local doc set, no new dependency, still works with no internet access.
+
+## [1.1.9] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Added
+- The host list now shows who created each host, and when.
+- Plain (non-wildcard) hosts can now be renamed after creation — the hostname field is no longer permanently locked. Wildcard hosts, wildcard children, and auto-created subdomain cache entries stay locked, since other records reference them by name.
+- More inline help text on the host create/edit form (Target SSL, wildcard matching behavior).
+
+### Fixed
+- The host create/edit modal's tabs could overflow awkwardly on narrow (mobile) screens — they now scroll horizontally instead.
+- Fixed a bug in the vendored `model-redis` library's record-rename path: renaming a record's primary key while another `always`-type field (e.g. `updated_on`) is defined earlier in the schema left a stray, incomplete hash behind under the old key, making that name permanently unavailable for reuse. Worked around in `Host.prototype.update()`.
+
+## [1.1.8] - 2026-07-17
+
+### Fixed
+- **Couldn't attach an existing host to a parent wildcard.** The host edit form's "Parent Wildcard" option submitted correctly, but `Host.prototype.update()` had no `challengeType` handling at all (only `Host.create()` did) — selecting it and saving silently did nothing. Added the same wildcard-parent lookup to `update()`.
+- **Couldn't register a wildcard's own base domain as a host.** A wildcard cert's `altNames` already cover both the base domain and `*.base domain`, but the lookup tree stores the wildcard one level below its base domain, and a lookup for the bare base domain landed on that empty parent node and found nothing — even though the already-issued cert covers it. `buildLookUpObj()` now also stamps the parent node so this resolves correctly, without re-issuing or duplicating the cert.
+
+Both required a corrected lookup: attaching an *existing* host (which already has its own tree leaf) needed a new `Host.lookUpWildcardParent()` that checks the sibling wildcard slot instead of resolving to the host's own record.
+
+## [1.1.7] - 2026-07-16
+
+### Changed
+- Redesigned the GitHub Pages docs site to match the app's own look (dark navbar/footer, Bootstrap 5, Font Awesome) instead of the generic `jekyll-theme-cayman` theme, added a real cross-page nav, SEO (`jekyll-seo-tag` + `jekyll-sitemap`, per-page descriptions, OG/Twitter tags, sitemap.xml, robots.txt), and mobile-responsive layout.
+

+---
+
+# Users, Groups & Permissions
+
+This page explains, in plain language, who can manage what in this app. For
+the deeper system-design detail, see [Architecture](architecture.html).
+
+## Two different ways to log in
+
+Most people who use apps you've proxied through this app never see this
+app's own login at all — they use whatever authentication you set up on
+the *individual host* (basic auth, or single sign-on through your SSO
+Manager). This page is about a different, smaller group: the people who
+manage the proxy itself — adding hosts, registering DNS providers, and so
+on.
+
+There are two ways someone gets into the proxy's own management UI:
+
+- **A local account**, created on the **Users** page — a username and
+  password specific to this app.
+- **Single sign-on**, if you've connected this proxy to an SSO Manager (or
+  another OIDC provider) — the same login your other connected apps use.
+
+Either way, once logged in, what they're actually *allowed to do* here is
+controlled by permissions, described below.
+
+## Groups
+
+A **group** here is just a named list of local usernames, used to grant
+the same permission to several people at once instead of one at a time.
+If you're using SSO instead of local accounts, group membership normally
+comes from your identity provider instead — local groups exist mainly for
+the local-account case.
+
+## Permissions: scope + role
+
+Each **permission** entry grants one subject (a user or a group) one
+**role**, at one **scope** — the two are independent choices:
+
+**Scope** — *where* the role applies:
+
+- **Domain** — only hosts under one specific domain (e.g. someone can
+  manage everything under `example.com`, but can't see or touch a
+  completely different domain you also proxy).
+- **Global** — everywhere, across every domain this proxy manages.
+
+**Role** — *what* they can do within that scope:
+
+- **Viewer** — read-only. Can see hosts and their settings, but not
+  change anything.
+- **Manager** — full control over hosts (create, edit, delete) within
+  that scope.
+- **Admin** — same host control as Manager, **plus**, but *only when
+  granted at Global scope*, the ability to manage other people's
+  permissions, DNS providers, and local user accounts. An Admin role
+  granted at Domain scope instead of Global behaves exactly like Manager
+  for that one domain — it does not unlock those extra admin-only pages.
+
+In practice: give someone **Manager** on just the domain(s) they're
+responsible for to delegate day-to-day host management without handing
+them the keys to everything. Reserve **Global Admin** for people who
+should be able to change anything, anywhere, including who else has
+access.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page doesn't cover the exact permission-checking implementation or
+how SSO group membership maps into this system internally — for that, see
+[Architecture](architecture.html).

+title: API Tokens
+description: A plain-language guide to personal access tokens in theta42/proxy.
+---
+
+# API Tokens
+
+This page explains what an API token is and when you'd want one. For the
+full list of API endpoints a token can call, see the
+[API reference](api.html).
+
+## What's an API token, in plain terms?
+
+Normally, you interact with this app by logging in through a web browser.
+An **API token** (also called a personal access token, or PAT) is an
+alternative way in — a long, random string that a script, a scheduled job,
+or another program can use instead of a username and password, to act on
+your behalf without a human typing a login in each time.
+
+If you've ever set up a script to talk to GitHub, GitLab, or a similar
+service using a "token" instead of your real password, this is the same
+idea.
+
+## When would you actually need one?
+
+Most people never need to create one of these — you'll only want a token
+if you're automating something, for example:
+
+- A script that registers or updates hosts automatically (say, spinning up
+  a new service and wanting the proxy entry created for it without a
+  manual step).
+- A monitoring or backup job that checks this app's health via its API.
+- A configuration-management tool that keeps your host list in sync with
+  something else.
+
+If you're not doing any of that, you don't need an API token — just log in
+normally through the web UI.
+
+## How it works
+
+Create a token from your Profile page, give it a name so you remember what
+it's for later, and optionally an expiry. You'll be shown the token's
+value **exactly once** — copy it somewhere safe immediately, because it
+can't be viewed again afterward (only revoked or rotated). Whatever script
+or tool you're using it with sends it along with each request, the same
+way a browser sends your login session.

+any other domain either. If you ever suspect a token has leaked (ended up
+somewhere it shouldn't have, like a public script or log file), revoke it
+immediately from your Profile page; it stops working right away.

+
+# DNS Providers
+
+This page explains, in plain language, what a "DNS provider" is for in this
+app and when you actually need one. For setup steps, see
+[Installation](installation.html).
+
+## Do you need this at all?
+
+**Only if you want a [wildcard host](concepts-hosts.html)** (something like
+`*.example.com` covering every subdomain with one certificate). A normal,
+single-name host doesn't need a DNS provider configured at all — skip this
+page entirely if that's all you're setting up.
+
+## Why a wildcard cert needs this extra step
+
+To prove you actually own `example.com` before issuing a certificate that
+covers *every* possible subdomain of it, Let's Encrypt needs to see a
+specific, temporary DNS record appear on that domain — something only the
+real owner of the domain could add. A normal single-host certificate
+doesn't need this because it can prove ownership a simpler way (by
+responding to a web request instead).
+
+So: to get a wildcard certificate, this app needs to be able to add (and
+later remove) that one temporary DNS record on your domain automatically,
+which means it needs your domain registrar or DNS host's API credentials —
+that's what registering a **DNS provider** here does.
+
+## What you're actually giving it access to
+
+A DNS provider entry only needs enough access to add/remove TXT records —
+it's not given your registrar account's full login, and it can't do
+anything to your domain besides that one narrow task (and, for some
+providers, keeping a dynamic A record updated if you use that feature
+separately). Check your specific provider's page in the
+[Installation guide](installation.html) for exactly what kind of
+credential to generate and how narrowly you can scope it.
+
+## Want more detail?

+description: A plain-language guide to hosts, HTTPS certificates, and wildcards in theta42/proxy.
+---
+
+# Hosts & HTTPS
+
+This page explains, in plain language, what a "host" is and how this app
+gets you working HTTPS without you having to think about certificates. For
+the deeper system-design detail, see [Architecture](architecture.html); for
+step-by-step setup, see [Installation](installation.html).
+
+## What's a "host"?
+
+A **host** is one entry telling the proxy: "when someone requests *this*
+public address, send them to *that* server." For example: requests for
+`photos.example.com` get sent to the little box in your closet running your
+photo app on port 8080. Each app or service you want to reach from outside
+your network — a home automation dashboard, a media server, this proxy's
+own management UI — gets its own host entry.
+
+Two settings on a host are easy to mix up:
+
+- **Incoming host name** — the public address people type in their
+  browser (`photos.example.com`).
+- **Target IP/port** — where the proxy actually sends the request behind
+  the scenes (`10.0.0.5:8080`, or a hostname like `photo-server`).
+
+Everything else on the host form (traffic limits, access rules,
+authentication) is optional — a bare host with just those two fields
+already works.
+
+## HTTPS certificates: mostly automatic
+
+Every public website needs an HTTPS certificate so browsers show the lock
+icon instead of a scary warning. This app gets one for you automatically
+from [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org) the first time a host is
+actually requested — you don't manually request, install, or renew
+anything for a normal host. This happens behind the scenes using a method
+called **HTTP-01**, and it's the default for every new host.
+
+## Wildcards: one certificate for a whole family of hosts
+
+Sometimes you want *every* subdomain under one name to work — `app1.`,
+`app2.`, `anything.example.com` — without registering each one by hand and
+waiting for its own certificate. That's what a **wildcard** host does: a
+single host entry named `*.example.com` gets one certificate that covers
+the whole family at once. Setting one up needs one extra piece of
+information the automatic method above doesn't need — see
+[DNS Providers](concepts-dns.html) for why.
+
+Once a wildcard exists, you have two ways to actually use it:
+
+- **Register nothing else, and turn on "Match any subdomain"** on the
+  wildcard host itself — *any* subdomain that doesn't already have its own
+  entry gets automatically routed to the wildcard's target the first time
+  it's requested. Convenient, but it means literal typos and random scan
+  traffic get routed too, not just the subdomains you meant to use.
+- **Register each subdomain as its own host, as a "Parent Wildcard"
+  child** — more setup, but each subdomain can point at a different
+  target/server while still reusing the one wildcard certificate instead
+  of getting its own. This is the recommended default and is what
+  "Match only subdomains defined here" (the host form's default) does.
+
+You'll see the **"Parent Wildcard"** option light up automatically on the
+host form whenever the name you're entering already has a matching
+wildcard available to reuse — including the wildcard's own bare base
+domain (e.g. `example.com` itself, not just `something.example.com`).
+
+## Load Balancing
+
+If you have multiple servers running the same application, you can load balance traffic across them. When editing a host, you can specify **Additional Targets** (one `IP:port` per line). The proxy will automatically distribute incoming requests across your primary target and all additional targets using a round-robin strategy, providing simple high availability and load distribution without extra configuration.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page skips the system-internals (Redis, OpenResty, the lookup service)
+and the exact install steps. For those, see
+[Architecture](architecture.html) and [Installation](installation.html).
