 | mDNS local-discovery (Linux) | **Shipped** — `theta-gateway` announces (`services/mdns_announce.js`, opt-in via `THETA_LOCAL_DISCOVERY_HOSTS`), `theta-agent` discovers and applies a hosts-file override (`local_discovery.go`, opt-in via `prefer_local_directory`). Verified end-to-end with real containers over real multicast: announce → discover → apply → clean revert on disappearance, all confirmed. Caught two real bugs along the way (`mdns.Lookup()`'s IPv6 query aborting the whole lookup even after a valid IPv4 response arrived; `rename()` failing with EBUSY over a bind-mounted `/etc/hosts`, common in every container runtime) — see the commit messages in `theta-agent`. |
 | mDNS local-discovery (Windows, macOS) | Not built — needs platform-native testing this environment can't do (hosts-file vs. stub-resolver tradeoff, elevation, DNS-cache behavior per OS — see Appendix B §3). This is now the **only unbuilt piece** of the original design. |
 
-### TODO — what's actually left, in rough dependency order
+### TODO — what's actually left, in dependency order
 
-1. **mDNS local-discovery, Windows + macOS** — needs platform-native testing this Linux environment cannot do (hosts-file vs. stub-resolver tradeoff, elevation, DNS-cache quirks per OS — see Appendix B §3). Blocked on a Windows/Mac dev environment, not on design. The Linux side (announcer + agent listener) is done and verified — this is the only remaining piece of the original design with no Linux-buildable path forward.
-2. **Route `sso-manager-node`'s HTTPS traffic (join/export/resync) over the WireGuard mesh** instead of the open internet, now that the mesh exists as its own transport layer. Currently the two subsystems don't know about each other.
-3. **`theta-proxy` automation for the no-inbound relay** — mechanism is verified (see status table), but nothing creates the relay route automatically when a no-inbound spoke registers. Needs a new service-to-service credential between `sso-manager-node` and `theta-proxy`/`theta-gateway` — a real design decision (who mints it, what it authorizes), not just wiring.
-4. **OpenBao secret replication beyond the one agent-signing key** — LDAP admin creds, JWT secret, other per-deployment secrets that currently differ per site.
-5. **`theta-proxy`/`theta-gateway` service-to-service auth model in general** — items 2 and 3 both need it; worth designing once rather than inventing a credential per integration.
-6. **Mesh peer removal cleanup** — `wg_iface.removePeer()` doesn't remove the kernel routes `setPeer()` adds (flagged in code, not yet exercised because nothing removes a mesh peer today).
+1. **Service-to-service auth model for internal components** (`sso-manager-node` ↔ `theta-proxy`/`theta-gateway`). No unified credential exists today — the site join key (spoke↔master) and the mesh join token (gateway↔gateway) are two separately-invented patterns for the same underlying problem. Items 2 and 3 below both need this; design it once here rather than letting a third integration invent a third pattern.
+2. **Cross-component routing** — route `sso-manager-node`'s HTTPS replication traffic (join/export/resync) over the WireGuard mesh instead of the open internet, now that the mesh exists as its own transport layer. Blocked on #1.
+3. **No-inbound relay automation** — the relay mechanism itself is verified (master terminates + relays to a spoke with zero inbound path — see status table), but nothing in `theta-proxy` creates that route automatically when a no-inbound spoke registers. Blocked on #1.
+4. **Full secret replication** — only the agent-signing key is replicated today. LDAP admin credentials, JWT secrets, and other per-deployment secrets still differ per site, which complicates full disaster recovery.
+5. **Mesh peer cleanup** — `wg_iface.removePeer()` doesn't remove the kernel routes `setPeer()` adds (flagged in code; not yet exercised because nothing removes a mesh peer today).
+
+**mDNS local-discovery (Windows + macOS)** is deliberately not listed here: another session is actively building it on a real Windows machine (this environment can only do the Linux side, already shipped — see the status table). Check `theta-agent`'s recent history before assuming it's still open.
