fix: skip host self-registration when sso_token empty; roll up ldap-client v1.25.0 (v1.40.0)

ldap-client no longer POSTs an empty Bearer to /api/directory-admin/resources
(the misleading 'Invalid Credentials, login failed' during setup). Gitlink ->
ldap-client 68fcdb5 (v1.25.0).

+- Registers the proxy as an OIDC client of the SSO.
+- Persists submodule commit hashes in `.env` for reproducibility (e.g., `SSO_GIT_COMMIT`, `PROXY_GIT_COMMIT`). This ensures future `docker compose` runs use the same submodule versions.

+title: Group & Permission Model
+nav_order: 3
+---
+
+# Theta42 Group & Permission Model
+
+This is the canonical reference for how **groups and permissions work** across the
+theta42 suite (SSO Manager, Proxy, Jump-Host) and how **downstream apps and Linux
+hosts** should read and use them. It is written to be implementable by both humans
+and LLM agents.
+
+Everything below assumes LDAP is the single source of truth for identity and group
+membership. Group membership is managed in the **SSO Manager Directory**, generated
+from adopted resources — there is **no standalone "Groups" page**.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Principles
+
+1. **Groups are a projection of the resource graph.** Every adopted host and app
+   in the Directory gets its own groups, auto-created from its identity. Group
+   membership is managed on the resource's modal.
+2. **Two orthogonal resource namespaces: `host` and `app`.** A host administers
+   hosts; an app administers apps. They do not inherit from each other.
+3. **Three levels per resource: `admin`, `access`, and opaque `capability`.**
+   `admin` implies `access`. Capabilities are explicit and never implied by
+   `admin`.
+4. **Multi-site by prefix.** Each site's groups are fully independent, scoped by
+   the site slug.
+5. **Hosts map, LDAP stays clean.** Directory groups are `groupOfNames` (RBAC)
+   with **no `gidNumber`**. A Linux host uses SSSD to import only the groups it
+   needs and generate their GIDs on the fly (see §8) — no mass import, no GID
+   bloat. Only the meta groups are never imported by hosts.
+6. **The directory is the only place groups are created.** `god_admin` is the sole
+   group that does not belong to a resource or site.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Group schema
+
+`S` = site slug (see §7 for normalization). `<host>`/`<app>` = the resource slug.
+`<capability>` = an opaque, app-defined capability token (see §4).
+
+| Group | Scope | Meaning |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `god_admin` | global | **Everything, everywhere** (all sites, hosts, apps, consoles, all capabilities). The only non-site group. |
+| `S_super_admin` | site | Everything on site `S` (all hosts, apps, consoles, all capabilities at `S`). |
+| `S_hosts_admin` | site | Admin on **all hosts** at `S`. |
+| `S_hosts_access` | site | Access to **all hosts** at `S`. |
+| `S_hosts_<capability>` | site | Capability `<capability>` on **all hosts** at `S`. |
+| `S_host_<host>_admin` | host | Admin on host `<host>`. |
+| `S_host_<host>_access` | host | Access to host `<host>`. |
+| `S_host_<host>_<capability>` | host | Capability `<capability>` on host `<host>`. |
+| `S_apps_admin` | site | Admin on **all apps** at `S`. |
+| `S_apps_access` | site | Access to **all apps** at `S`. |
+| `S_apps_<capability>` | site | Capability `<capability>` on **all apps** at `S`. |
+| `S_app_<app>_admin` | app | Admin on app `<app>`. |
+| `S_app_<app>_access` | app | Access to app `<app>`. |
+| `S_app_<app>_<capability>` | app | Capability `<capability>` on app `<app>`. |
+
+### Meta groups (implicit membership — not POSIX, no gidNumber)
+
+| Group | Scope | Meaning |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| `everyone` | global | **All authenticated users**, any site. |
+| `S_everyone` | site | **All authenticated users** at site `S`. |
+
+These are resolved by the directory (any authenticated user passes), never
+enumerated as LDAP members, and cannot be used as Unix groups.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Naming, normalization & reserved rules
+
+- The **structural delimiter is `_`**. It appears only between the fixed segments
+  of a group name.
+- **The `S` site segment is the site resource's slug verbatim** (`site_local`),
+  NOT re-slugified (which would corrupt the delimiter: `site_local` → `site-local`).
+- **Per-resource groups are `{S}_{kind}_{name}_{level}`.** `kind` is `host` or
+  `app`; `name` is the resource's **name slug with the kind prefix stripped** — a
+  host resource `host_theta-env` has name `theta-env`, so its groups are
+  `site_local_host_theta-env_access` / `_admin`. A service (the group model's
+  `app`, docs §11) `sso-manager` gives `site_local_app_sso-manager_access`. The
+  kind segment is always present, which is what makes a resource's name
+  unambiguous even if a host and a service share a name.
+- **Within a segment, normalize to lowercase** — spaces and stray `_` → `-`; strip
+  other non-`[a-z0-9-]`. A host named `Web 01` and a site `Main Office` (resource
+  slugs `host_web-01` and `site_main-office`) yield groups `site_main-office_host_web-01_*`.
+- **Aggregate groups use the plural kind** (`hosts`, `apps`); per-resource groups
+  use the singular (`host`, `app`). This makes `S_hosts_admin` unambiguous even
+  if a host were named `admin` (that host would be `S_host_admin_admin`).
+- **The last segment is the level.** If it is `admin` or `access` it is a known
+  level; any other value is an **opaque capability** owned by a downstream app.
+- **Total length budget:** keep a group cn under ~120 chars; reject group
+  creation that would exceed it.
+- Groups are **`groupOfNames`** (RFC 2307bis) with **no `gidNumber`**. GIDs are
+  generated on the host by SSSD for only the groups that host imports (see §8).
+
+---
+
+## 4. Levels and opaque capabilities
+
+- **`admin`** — manage (create/update/delete/config) the resource.
+- **`access`** — use/read the resource.
+- **`<capability>`** — an arbitrary token the SSO does **not** interpret. The SSO
+  manages membership and exposes the group to the app; **the downstream app
+  defines and enforces what the capability means** (e.g. `emby_admin`,
+  `gitea_maintain`, `reboot`, `backup`).
+
+The directory recognizes `admin`, `access`, `super_admin`, and the meta groups.
+Everything else on a resource group is treated as an opaque capability group and
+passed through to consumers.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Permission resolution (inheritance)
+
+Define a user's **effective permission** on a resource by checking, from most
+specific to most general, whether they are a member of any applicable group. The
+rule: a higher group implies everything below it.
+
+### On host `H` at site `S`
+
+| Wanted | Granted if the user is a member of **any** of |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **admin** on `H` | `god_admin` · `S_super_admin` · `S_hosts_admin` · `S_host_H_admin` |
+| **access** on `H` | (any admin rule above) · `S_hosts_access` · `S_host_H_access` |
+| **capability `C`** on `H` | `god_admin` · `S_super_admin` · `S_hosts_C` · `S_host_H_C` |
+
+### On app `A` at site `S`
+
+Identical, with `app`/`apps` substituted for `host`/`hosts`.
+
+### Management console (SSO / Proxy / Jump-Host)
+
+Each console is registered as an **app** on its site, so console admin is:
+
+`god_admin` · `S_super_admin` · `S_app_<console>_admin`
+
+### Pseudocode
+
+```
+def effective(resource, level_or_cap, site):
+    if user in "god_admin":                  return True
+    if user in f"{site}_super_admin":        return True
+    if level_or_cap in ("admin","access"):
+        agg = f"{site}_{resource.kind}s_{level_or_cap}"
+        if user in agg:                      return True
+    # resource.name is the resource's name slug (kind prefix stripped); the kind
+    # is its own segment. A host `host_theta-env` has name `theta-env`, kind `host`.
+    specific = f"{site}_{resource.kind}_{resource.name}_{level_or_cap}"
+    if user in specific:                     return True
+    if level_or_cap == "access":             return effective(resource, "admin", site)
+    if level_or_cap == "admin":              return False          # access does not imply admin
+    return False
+```
+
+`everyone` / `S_everyone` are a special grantee: if a resource grants a group to
+`everyone` (or `S_everyone`), any authenticated user (at that site) passes.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Where groups live — the Directory, generated from adopted resources
+
+- There is **no standalone Groups page.** Group creation/management happens on an
+  **adopted resource** in the Directory.
+- When a host or app is **adopted** (promoted from Discovered Inventory to
+  managed), the directory auto-creates its `_admin` and `_access` groups (and
+  site aggregates if configured). Capability groups are created on demand.
+- Membership (add/remove users) and capability grants are managed on that
+  resource's modal.
+- Deleting a resource removes its per-resource groups.
+- The `S_super_admin`, `S_hosts_*`, `S_apps_*`, `S_everyone` site groups and the
+  global `god_admin`/`everyone` are managed at the site level (not on a single
+  host/app resource).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Multi-site isolation
+
+One LDAP tree can serve many sites ("Main Office", "Branch Office", "co-lo",
+"Mikes Homelab", …). Each site `S` has its own fully independent set of `S_*`
+groups behind its prefix. A `main-office_super_admin` or `main-office_hosts_admin`
+touches nothing in `branch-office_*` or `steves-homelab_*`. Only `god_admin` and
+`everyone` cross site boundaries.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Unix/POSIX groups — mapped on the host, not in LDAP
+
+Directory groups are **`groupOfNames`** (RFC 2307bis) and carry **no `gidNumber`**.
+There are hundreds of them and only a handful matter on any given host, so we do
+**not** bloat LDAP with GIDs. Instead, each Linux host uses SSSD to import only the
+groups it cares about and map them to GIDs **on the fly** (algorithmic ID mapping).
+This keeps the directory clean and the per-host surface tiny.
+
+### SSSD — generate GIDs on the fly, import only what you need
+
+```ini
+[domain/example]
+id_provider = ldap
+auth_provider = ldap
+ldap_uri = ldaps://ldap.example
+ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com
+
+# groupOfNames (RFC 2307bis) schema
+ldap_schema = rfc2307bis
+ldap_group_object_class = groupOfNames
+ldap_group_member = member
+
+# Map GIDs mathematically from the LDAP UUID — no gidNumber in LDAP
+ldap_id_mapping = true
+ldap_group_uuid = entryUUID
+
+# Import ONLY the groups this host needs (e.g. a naming convention or an OU)
+ldap_group_search_filter = (&(objectClass=groupOfNames)(cn=linux-*))
+```
+
+Key ideas:
+- `ldap_id_mapping = true` + `ldap_group_uuid = entryUUID` make SSSD derive a
+  stable GID for any group it imports, so **no `gidNumber` attribute is required**
+  in LDAP.
+- `ldap_group_search_filter` is the gatekeeper: SSSD imports only groups that
+  match, discarding the other hundreds. After changing the filter, clear the
+  cache (`sss_cache -E`; `rm -f /var/lib/sss/db/*`; restart sssd) and verify with
+  `getent group <cn>`.
+
+### What filter to use — the naming convention is the answer
+
+A host should import its **own** resource groups (plus any explicitly granted
+ones). Because the schema is predictable, `ldap-client` can generate the per-host
+`ldap_group_search_filter` from the enrolled host's identity, e.g. a host `web01`
+at site `main-office` (site resource slug `site_main-office`) imports:
+
+```
+(&(objectClass=groupOfNames)(|(cn=site_main-office_host_web01_access)
+                               (cn=site_main-office_host_web01_admin)
+                               (cn=site_main-office_host_web01_sudo)))
+```
+
+So the operator (or ldap-client) selects a small allowlist of the host's `_access`
+/ `_admin` / capability groups to feed sudoers, SSH `AllowGroups`, and filesystem
+ACLs. **Only those groups are imported** — no GID bloat, no mass import.
+
+### Aliasing an LDAP group into a local group (e.g. `input`)
+
+SSSD cannot merge an LDAP group into a local group whose GID varies per host.
+Two host-side mechanisms cover it:
+
+- **pam_exec** — a script in the login stack adds the user to the local group for
+  the session:
+  ```sh
+  #!/bin/bash
+  if id -Gn "$PAM_USER" | grep -q "host_input"; then usermod -a -G input "$PAM_USER"; fi
+  ```
+  `session optional pam_exec.so /usr/local/bin/add_to_input.sh` in
+  `/etc/pam.d/common-session`.
+
+- **nss-groupmerge** — merge an LDAP group into a local group at NSS time
+  (`/etc/groupmerge.conf`: `input: host_input`, then `group: files sssd groupmerge`
+  in `/etc/nsswitch.conf`), so any service querying `input` sees the LDAP group's
+  members regardless of the local GID.
+
+### Meta groups
+
+`god_admin`, `everyone`, and `S_everyone` are NOT imported by hosts — they have
+implicit membership and are resolved by the directory only.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Downstream-app consumption guide
+
+A downstream app (Emby, Gitea, a custom service, a shell script) reads group
+membership from LDAP and interprets it as follows:
+
+1. **Discover the user's groups** — bind with the user's credentials (or use a
+   service account + `memberOf`). Groups are `groupOfNames` (member DN), so query
+   by the user's DN, e.g. `(&(objectClass=groupOfNames)(member=<user_dn>))`, or use
+   the `memberOf` reverse attribute on the user's entry.
+2. **Match each group to a scope:**
+   - `god_admin` → the user is a global administrator.
+   - `{site}_super_admin` → site administrator for that site.
+   - `{site}_hosts_*` / `{site}_app_*` (aggregate) → applies to all hosts/apps at the site.
+   - `{site}_host_<host>_*` / `{site}_app_<app>_*` → applies to that one resource.
+   - `everyone` / `{site}_everyone` → the user is implicitly a member.
+3. **Interpret the last segment:**
+   - `admin` → full control of that resource.
+   - `access` → read/use.
+   - anything else → a capability **you** define; act on it or ignore it.
+4. A user with `{site}_host_web01_access` can reach `web01`; a user with
+   `{site}_host_web01_reboot` (if you define `reboot`) may reboot it; a user with
+   `{site}_app_emby_emby_admin` administers Emby.
+
+The app must **never** treat an unknown last segment as `admin` or `access`.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Migration from the legacy `app_*` groups
+
+The current global groups (`app_sso_admin`, `app_super_admin`,
+`app_sso_directory_admin`, `app_jump_admin`) are replaced by the new model:
+
+| Legacy | New |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| `app_super_admin` | `god_admin` |
+| `app_sso_admin` | `S_app_sso_admin` (+ `S_super_admin` for site admins) |
+| `app_sso_directory_admin` | `S_app_sso_admin` |
+| `app_jump_admin` | `S_app_jump_admin` |
+
+During the transition the legacy groups may be kept as short-lived aliases that
+resolve to the same effective permission; once everything is moved, remove them.
+
+---
+
+## 11. The management consoles are apps
+
+The SSO, Proxy, and Jump-Host each register themselves as an app on their site and
+receive their auto-generated groups (`S_app_sso_admin`, `S_app_proxy_admin`,
+`S_app_jump_admin`, plus `_access`). Their admin UIs gate on
+`god_admin` · `S_super_admin` · `S_app_<console>_admin`. This keeps everything
+self-consistent: the SSO is "just another app."

+
+## Secrets (OpenBao)
+
+Every component loads its secrets from one OpenBao instance at boot, not
+from scattered config files. OpenBao runs as the `openbao` container
+(`http://openbao:8200` on theta-net, KV-v2 at `secret/`); each app gets a
+**scoped token** (never the root token) whose OpenBao policy confines it to
+the paths it needs:
+
+| Service | env var | Policy | Access |
+|---------|---------|--------|--------|
+| sso-manager | `SSO_VAULT_TOKEN` | `sso-broker` | `secret/sso-manager/conf`, `secret/users/*`, `secret/apps/*`, `secret/plugins/*`; also mints per-user + per-app tokens |
+| proxy | `PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN` | `proxy` | `secret/proxy/conf` (read) |
+| jump-host | `JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN` | `jump-host` | `secret/jump-host/conf` (read) |
+
+At boot each app calls `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`'s `init()`, which deep-merges
+its OpenBao path over the file-loaded `@simpleworkjs/conf` object — so OpenBao
+is authoritative at runtime, with the `./config/*-secrets.js` file kept only as
+an operator-edited seed and a fail-soft fallback (`init()` is fail-soft, so the
+app still boots from the file if OpenBao is unreachable). The proxy and
+jump-host consume `conf.oidc.clientSecret` at `require` time, so `init()`
+runs *before* their models load (see each app's `bin/www`).
+
+Beyond app config, OpenBao holds:
+
+- **Per-user secret storage** — `secret/users/<uid>/*`, browsed and edited in
+  the SSO UI's **My Secrets** page. Each user is confined to their own
+  namespace by a `user-<uid>` policy; admins see all of `secret/`.
+- **External-app tokens** — an admin mints a scoped `app-<name>` token
+  (confined to `secret/apps/<name>/*`) from the SSO UI's **Apps** tab, so an
+  external app can read its own secrets over the OpenBao HTTP API.
+
+`setup.sh` creates the policies + a `sso-broker` token role and mints the
+per-app tokens on first run; the root token stays in `setup.env` for
+seeding/maintenance only and is never passed to a service container. Full
+details — the policy model, the `secret/apps/<app>/conf` convention, `curl`
++ Node examples, and the operator rotation procedure — are in
+[Secrets](secrets.html).

+## Plugin Ecosystem
+
+The SSO Manager utilizes a dynamic plugin registry (`nodejs/services/plugin_registry.js`) that automatically loads any `.js` file placed in the `nodejs/plugins/<category>` folders.
+
+### Discovery Plugins
+Discovery plugins (e.g., `nmap.js`, `proxmox.js`, `docker.js`) run on a defined cron schedule to sync external assets into the centralized directory catalog.
+
+### Messaging Plugins
+Messaging plugins (e.g., `twilio.js`, `webhook.js`) provide on-demand delivery capabilities for alerts, 2FA tokens, and notifications. 
+- **Universal REST Webhook:** Sends custom JSON payloads to platforms like Slack, Teams, or custom API endpoints securely.
+  - *Discord Example:* To send alerts to a Discord channel, create a new plugin instance of type "Universal REST Webhook". Set the **Webhook URL** to your Discord webhook URL (e.g., `https://discord.com/api/webhooks/...`), the **HTTP Method** to `POST`, and the **Payload Template** to `{"content": "Alert for {{to}}: {{message}}"}`. Leave the Headers and API Secret blank.
+- **Twilio SMS:** Sends standard SMS codes.
+- **Fallback:** If no messaging plugins are enabled, the system falls back to the legacy `voipms` integration configured in the SSO secrets.
+
+Secrets belonging to plugins are automatically pushed to OpenBao (`secret/plugins/<id>/conf`) and are never written to the local database, following the global secrets architecture.

+title: Architecture
+description: How the jump host authenticates users, resolves reachable hosts from the directory, injects per-user keys, and bridges SSH — plus the web UI and audit model.
+---
+
+# Architecture
+
+The jump host is a Node.js service (using [`ssh2`](https://github.com/mscdex/ssh2)
+as both an SSH **server** and **client**) with two faces: the SSH front door
+(default `:2222`) and a web UI/API (`:3002`). It holds no user database of its
+own — identity, authorization, and onward credentials all come from the shared
+directory.
+
+```
+      ┌────────────────────── jump host ──────────────────────┐
+ ssh  │  ssh2 Server (:2222)                                   │  ssh2 Client
+ ─────┼─▶ 1. authenticate user  ──▶ LDAP (sshPublicKey / bind) │  ───────────▶  downstream
+ user │  2. resolve target      ──▶ SSO /api/discovery         │                sshd (as the
+      │  3. inject key          ──▶ LDAP (add sshPublicKey)    │                real user)
+      │  4. bridge channels ◀───────────────────────────────▶ │
+      │  web UI/API (:3002)  ──▶ audit + metrics (redis)       │
+      └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+## 1. Inbound authentication
+
+When a user connects, the jump host authenticates them against LDAP:
+
+- **Public key** — it looks up the user's `sshPublicKey` values in the directory
+  and matches the offered key (handling ssh2's probe-then-sign two-phase
+  publickey auth). The jump host's *own* injected key (identified by its comment
+  marker) is deliberately excluded from this match — only the jump host may hold
+  that private key, so accepting it inbound would be a bypass.
+- **Password** — an LDAP simple bind as the user's DN. Policy is configurable:
+  `off` (keys only — recommended for a public host), `local` (passwords only
+  from loopback/RFC1918 clients, keys-only from the internet), or `all`.
+
+Every attempt — success or failure, with method and reason — is audited.
+
+## 2. Access & target resolution
+
+The hosts a user may reach are computed from the directory, not a local list:
+
+1. The user's LDAP group memberships (`(&(objectClass=groupOfNames)(member=…))`).
+2. For each group, the SSO's
+   `GET /api/discovery/resources?group=<cn>` (authenticated with an API token),
+   unioned and filtered to `kind: host`.
+
+Each host's dial address is `metadata.ip` (or the hostname from
+`metadata.address`) and port `metadata.sshPort` (default 22). Results are cached
+briefly per user and shared by both the grammar path and the TUI picker.
+
+Target matching tries, in order: exact slug → `host_`-prefixed slug → display
+name → IP → address hostname. A raw IP that isn't an accessible directory host
+is refused unless explicitly allowed.
+
+> The directory auto-creates `<slug>_access` / `<slug>_admin` groups for every
+> host and service (see the SSO's
+> [Directory & Inventory](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/directory.html)
+> docs), which is exactly what this authorization reads.
+
+## 3. Upstream Authentication (PKI or LDAP Keys) {#upstream-authentication}
+
+To connect downstream *as the user* without asking them for a password, the jump host uses one of two methods (configured in `conf.ssh`):
+
+**Option A: PKI Certificates (Recommended)**
+The jump host securely calls the OpenBao (Vault) SSH Secrets Engine API to request a short-lived (e.g. 5-minute), signed SSH certificate for the target user. 
+- **Zero Touch on Target:** The target host simply trusts the OpenBao CA (`TrustedUserCAKeys /etc/ssh/ca.pub`). No public keys are synced or managed.
+- **Ephemeral:** The certificate expires automatically.
+- **Transparent:** The jump host passes `cert: signedCert` to `ssh2.Client`, authenticating instantly.
+
+**Option B: Legacy LDAP Key Injection**
+If PKI is not configured, the jump host falls back to its legacy method: it holds **one** keypair. On a user's first connection, the jump host appends its own public key to that user's `sshPublicKey` attribute in LDAP (comment-marked) so the downstream host's `AuthorizedKeysCommand` will accept it, then connects with its private key.
+- Idempotent: the key is added once; a redis flag skips the LDAP round-trip afterwards.
+- The jump host's bind account needs **write access** to the `sshPublicKey` attribute.
+- Because the marker key is excluded from inbound auth (step 1), it grants only the jump host's onward path.
+
+## 4. Bridging
+
+Once the upstream connection is ready, the jump host splices SSH channels
+between the two connections:
+
+- **shell / exec** — piped both ways, with window-change and exit-status
+  forwarded.
+- **SFTP subsystem** — the two subsystem channels are raw-piped as opaque bytes;
+  no SFTP protocol parsing is needed, which is why WinSCP and `sftp` work
+  unchanged.
+- Channel requests that arrive before the upstream is ready are buffered and
+  replayed, so nothing is dropped during the connect.
+- The downstream host key's SHA256 fingerprint is recorded in the audit event
+  (trust-on-use in v1).
+
+Byte counts per direction are tallied cheaply for the audit record.
+
+## Web UI, API & audit
+
+An Express + EJS + Bootstrap app on `:3002` — the same front-end stack and
+look/feel as the SSO Manager and Proxy. Login is OIDC against the SSO plus a
+local anti-lockout admin (`auth.adminUsers`), with admin access gated by
+`auth.adminGroups`. It exposes:
+
+- `GET /health` — open; `{status, activeSessions, version}`
+- `GET /api/sessions` — active sessions
+- `GET /api/audit?page=&uid=&target=&status=` — the paged audit log
+- `GET /api/metrics` — counters (total, failures, top users/hosts)
+
+Audit events and counters live in redis. Each event captures: user, auth method,
+mode (grammar/picker), target slug/address/port, channel type, client IP,
+success + failure reason, downstream host-key fingerprint, timing, and bytes in/out.
+
+## Where it sits in the stack
+
+- **[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/)** — provides the
+  OpenLDAP directory (users, groups, `sshPublicKey`) and the inventory API this
+  jump host reads.
+- **[ldap-client](https://github.com/theta42/ldap-client)** — enrolls the
+  downstream Linux hosts (SSSD/PAM + `AuthorizedKeysCommand`) that the jump host
+  connects into.
+- **[Proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/)** — fronts the jump host's web UI
+  under TLS.
+- **[theta-env](https://theta42.github.io/theta-env/)** — wires it all together.

+title: Connecting
+description: How to reach downstream hosts through the jump host — the username grammar, the interactive picker, SFTP/WinSCP, and what access you get.
+---
+
+# Connecting
+
+You reach a downstream host two ways: name the target in your username, or log
+in plain and pick it from a menu. Either way you authenticate **once**, to the
+jump host, with your directory credentials.
+
+## The username grammar
+
+```
+{uid}_-_{target}
+```
+
+- `{uid}` — your directory username.
+- `_-_` — the separator (legal in an SSH username everywhere, including WinSCP).
+- `{target}` — the host to reach: a directory **slug** (`host_web01` or just
+  `web01`), the host's **display name**, its **IP**, or the hostname in its
+  directory `address`.
+
+```bash
+ssh alice_-_web01@jump.example.com          # by slug (host_ prefix optional)
+ssh alice_-_10.0.0.10@jump.example.com      # by IP (must be a host you can reach)
+```
+
+If the target matches a host your directory groups grant, you're bridged
+straight to its `sshd` — same as if you'd SSH'd directly, but through the
+audited jump host.
+
+## SFTP / WinSCP / scp
+
+Because the whole route is encoded in the username, file transfer tools that
+only take one connection string work with no extra configuration:
+
+```bash
+sftp -P 2222 alice_-_web01@jump.example.com
+scp -P 2222 file.txt alice_-_web01@jump.example.com:/tmp/
+```
+
+**WinSCP:** set Host name to `jump.example.com`, Port to `2222`, and User name
+to `alice_-_web01`. SFTP is bridged as an opaque byte stream, so all operations
+(browse, upload, download, rename) work normally.
+
+## The interactive picker
+
+Log in with just your username and you get a TUI list of every host you can
+reach:
+
+```bash
+ssh alice@jump.example.com
+```
+
+- **↑ / ↓** move the selection
+- **type** to filter the list incrementally
+- **Enter** connect to the highlighted host
+- **number keys** jump straight to that row
+- **q** or **Ctrl-C** to quit
+
+Pick a host and you're bridged into it. The picker only ever lists hosts your
+directory access allows — it doubles as "what can I reach from here?"
+
+## What you can reach
+
+The set of hosts is computed per login: your LDAP group memberships intersected
+with the SSO directory's hosts (via the `host_<name>_access` groups the
+directory auto-creates for each machine). To get access to a new host, an admin
+adds you to that host's access group in the SSO — nothing on the jump host
+changes.
+
+Targets that don't resolve to a host you're allowed to reach are refused (and
+audited). Raw IPs that aren't a known directory host are denied by default.
+
+
+## Authentication
+
+The jump host authenticates **you** against the directory:
+
+- **Public key** — matched against your `sshPublicKey` entries in LDAP. Use your
+  normal SSH key; the client picks it automatically.
+- **Password** — your directory password (LDAP bind). Password auth is often
+  restricted to local networks or disabled entirely on a public jump host
+  (keys-only) — check with your operator.
+
+You never manage a separate credential for the downstream host: the jump host
+handles onward authentication for you (see

+
+## First connection to a host
+
+The very first time you reach a given downstream host, the jump host provisions
+its access key for you behind the scenes. If that first attempt races the
+directory's key-cache refresh you may see a brief
+
+```
+jump-host: first-time key propagation, retrying…
+```
+
+and it reconnects automatically. Subsequent connections are immediate.

+---
+
+# Jump Host
+
+An SSH jump host for the [theta42](https://github.com/theta42) self-hosted
+stack. Users SSH into **one** public host and land on any downstream host
+they're entitled to — authenticated against the shared LDAP directory,
+authorized from the [SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/)'s
+inventory graph, and audited end to end.
+
+No per-host accounts, no distributing keys, no VPN. The same people who log in
+to your SSO are the people who can reach your machines — and only the machines
+their directory groups grant.
+
+Part of the theta42 self-hosted identity stack, alongside
+[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/) and
+[Proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/), composable with one command via
+[theta-env](https://theta42.github.io/theta-env/).

+## Two ways to connect
+
+**Direct (WinSCP/SFTP-friendly):**
+
+```bash
+ssh alice_-_web01@jump.example.com
+sftp -P 2222 alice_-_web01@jump.example.com
+```
+
+The username grammar is `{uid}_-_{target}` — `target` is a directory host slug
+(with or without the `host_` prefix), a bare hostname, or an IP. One username
+string, no interactive step, so it works cleanly in WinSCP and scripts.
+
+**Interactive picker:**
+
+```bash
+ssh alice@jump.example.com
+```
+
+A plain login shows a TUI list of the hosts you can reach; arrow-key or type to
+filter, Enter to connect.
+
+See **[Connecting](connecting.html)** for the full usage guide.
+
+## Why a jump host (and why this one)
+
+A bastion/jump host is the standard way to give SSH access to internal machines
+through a single audited entry point. What's usually painful is *authorization*
+and *credentials*: who may reach which host, and how the bastion authenticates
+onward without you copying keys everywhere.
+
+This jump host answers both from your directory:
+
+- **Authorization is your directory graph.** The hosts you can reach are the
+  union of your LDAP groups × the SSO's inventory (the `host_<name>_access`
+  groups the directory already auto-creates). Add someone to a group; they can
+  reach the host. No bastion-side allow-list to maintain.
+- **Onward auth is automatic.** The jump host holds one key and injects its
+  public half into your `sshPublicKey` on first use, then connects downstream
+  **as you**. Downstream hosts already serve keys from LDAP (via
+  [ldap-client](https://github.com/theta42/ldap-client)'s
+  `AuthorizedKeysCommand`), so nothing downstream needs configuring.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Username-grammar routing** (`uid_-_target`) — straight-through to the host,
+  SFTP included (WinSCP works)
+- **Interactive TUI host picker** on plain login, scoped to your access
+- **LDAP inbound auth** — public key or password (keys-only policy recommended
+  for a public host)
+- **Directory-driven access** — reachable hosts come from the SSO inventory, not
+  a static list
+- **Per-user key injection** — no downstream changes, no key distribution
+- **Shell, exec, and SFTP** bridging
+- **Web UI + HTTP API** for auditing and metrics — active sessions, a searchable
+  audit log, per-user/per-host counters
+- **Full audit trail** — who, target, method, result, bytes, duration, and the
+  downstream host-key fingerprint
+
+- Packaged like the rest of the stack: one-command Docker, idempotent bare-metal
+  installer, or bundled in theta-env
+
+## Get it
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/theta42/jump-host.git
+cd jump-host
+cp secrets.js.example config/jump-secrets.js   # then edit it
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+For bare-metal and the bundled theta-env
+option, see **[Installation](installation.html)**.
+
+## Related projects

+description: The proxy's management REST API — hosts, DNS providers, users, groups, and permissions.
+---
+
+# API Documentation
+
+[← Back to Home](index.html)
+
+All API endpoints require authentication unless otherwise noted. Three
+authentication methods are supported:
+
+- **`auth-token` header** — a browser-session token from `POST /api/auth/login`
+  or the OIDC flow (below).
+- **`Authorization: Bearer <token>` header** — a self-service API token (PAT,
+  see [API Tokens](#api-tokens)), for scripts/CI without a browser session.
+- **OIDC (browser)** — if the proxy is configured as an OIDC client of an SSO
+  (`app_oidc__*` / `conf.oidc`, see [DEPLOYMENT.md](https://github.com/theta42/proxy/blob/master/DEPLOYMENT.md)),
+  users can log in via `GET /api/auth/oidc/start` instead of posting a
+  username/password.
+
+The proxy can also be configured as a **direct LDAP client** (`app_ldap__*` /
+`conf.ldap`) for looking up/validating users, independent of the OIDC flow —
+see DEPLOYMENT.md for the full configuration reference.
+
+Authenticated requests also carry **RBAC** (role-based access control):
+global admins can manage everything; other users are scoped to `viewer` or
+`manager` rights on specific domains via [Permissions](#permissions) and
+[Groups](#groups).
+
+Base URL: `https://your-proxy-host.com/api`
+
+---
+
+## Authentication
+
+### Login
+
+**POST** `/api/auth/login`
+
+Authenticate a user and receive an auth token.
+
+```bash
+curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -X POST \
+  -d '{"username": "myuser", "password": "mypassword"}' \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/auth/login
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `200` `{"login": true, "token": "027d3964-7d81-4462-a6f9-2c1f9b40b4be", "message": "myuser logged in!"}`
+- `401` `{"name": "LoginFailed", "message": "Invalid Credentials, login failed."}`
+
+### Logout
+
+**ALL** `/api/auth/logout`
+
+Invalidate the current auth token.
+
+```bash
+curl -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  -X POST \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/auth/logout
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `200` `{"message": "Bye"}`
+
+### OIDC Login (start)
+
+**GET** `/api/auth/oidc/start`
+
+Begin the OIDC authorization-code flow: creates a PKCE + state challenge and
+redirects the browser to the configured SSO's authorize endpoint. Only
+available when `conf.oidc.enabled` is true.
+
+**Query Parameters:**
+- `redirect` - Internal path to return to after login (optional; sanitized to same-origin)
+
+```bash
+curl -i "https://proxy-host.com/api/auth/oidc/start?redirect=/hosts"
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `302` Redirect to the SSO's authorization endpoint
+- `404` `{"name": "OidcDisabled", "message": "OIDC login is not enabled."}`
+
+### OIDC Callback
+
+**GET** `/api/auth/oidc/callback`
+
+Redirect target for the SSO after login. Validates the one-time `state`,
+exchanges the authorization `code` for tokens, reads identity from the
+userinfo endpoint, establishes a session, and redirects the browser back to
+the login page with the app's own `auth-token` in a URL fragment.
+
+**Query Parameters:**
+- `code` (required) - Authorization code from the SSO
+- `state` (required) - State value from the `start` step
+
+```bash
+# Not called directly — the SSO redirects the browser here after login.
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `302` Redirect to `/login#token=...&redirect=...`
+- `400` `{"name": "OidcCallbackInvalid", "message": "Missing code or state."}` or expired/unknown state
+
+---
+
+## API Tokens
+
+Self-service personal access tokens (PATs) for scripting/CI without a browser
+session. Every endpoint is owner-scoped: a user only sees/manages tokens they
+created. Mounted at `/api/api-token`.
+
+### List API Tokens
+
+**GET** `/api/api-token`
+
+List the current user's API tokens.
+
+```bash
+curl -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/api-token
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `200` `{"results": [{"id": "...", "name": "ci", ...}, ...]}`
+
+### Create API Token
+
+**POST** `/api/api-token`
+
+Create a new API token. The raw token string is only returned once, at
+creation.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `name` (required) - Display name
+- `description` (optional)
+- `expires_in_days` (optional) - `0` or omitted means no expiry
+
+```bash
+curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  -X POST \
+  -d '{"name": "ci", "expires_in_days": 90}' \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/api-token
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `200` `{"results": {...}, "token": "prx_<id>_<secret>", "message": "API token 'ci' created. Save it now — it will not be shown again."}`
+
+### Get API Token
+
+**GET** `/api/api-token/:id`
+
+Get a token's metadata (not the raw secret, which is never stored/returned again).
+
+```bash
+curl -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/api-token/<id>
+```
+
+**Responses:**

+  https://proxy-host.com/api/api-token/<id>
+```
+
+**Responses:**
+- `200` `{"results": {...}, "message": "API token 'ci-updated' updated."}`
+
+### Delete (Revoke) API Token
+
+**DELETE** `/api/api-token/:id`
+
+Revoke a token immediately.

+
+### Rotate API Token
+
+**POST** `/api/api-token/:id/rotate`
+
+Issue a new secret for an existing token (same id, new raw value shown once).
+
+```bash
+curl -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  -X POST \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/api-token/<id>/rotate
+```

+  https://proxy-host.com/api/dns
+```
+
+**DigitalOcean:**
+```bash
+curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "auth-token: your-token-here" \
+  -X POST \
+  -d '{"name": "My DO", "dnsProvider": "DigitalOcean", "token": "your-api-token"}' \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/dns

+`subdomains` is a comma-separated list of the subdomains you've registered at
+[duckdns.org](https://www.duckdns.org) (e.g. `myhost` for
+`myhost.duckdns.org`), since DuckDNS has no API to list them for you.
+DuckDNS only supports one A/AAAA record and one TXT record per domain (no
+arbitrary sub-records) — enough for dynamic DNS and DNS-01 wildcard certs.

+  -X DELETE \
+  https://proxy-host.com/api/dns/dynamic/<id>
+```
+
+**Responses:**

+
+**Key Features:**
+- HTTP-01 ACME challenge handling for automatic SSL
+- Redis-first host lookup with Node.js fallback via Unix socket
+- High-performance event-driven architecture
+- Support for WebSocket connections
+- Continues serving cached hosts even if Node.js is down
+
+**Configuration Files:**
+- `/etc/openresty/nginx.conf` - Main configuration
+- `/etc/openresty/autossl.conf` - Let's Encrypt integration
+- `/etc/openresty/sites-enabled/000-proxy` - Proxy configuration
+- `/usr/local/openresty/lualib/targetinfo.lua` - Host lookup module
+
+### Node.js Application (Backend)
+
+**Responsibilities:**
+- API for host/user/DNS management
+- Wildcard SSL certificate orchestration
+- Host lookup tree maintenance
+- User authentication and authorization
+
+**Directory Structure:**

+
+### Redis (Data Store)
+
+**ORM:** [model-redis](https://www.npmjs.com/package/model-redis) - A lightweight Redis ORM for Node.js with schema validation, relationships, and automatic key management.
+
+**Stored Data:**
+- Host configurations (domain, IP, port, SSL settings)
+- User accounts and hashed passwords
+- Authentication tokens
+- SSL certificates (for wildcard domains)
+- DNS provider credentials
+- Domain-to-provider mappings
+
+**Key Prefixes:**
+```
+proxy_Host_<hostname>           # Host configuration
+proxy_User_<username>           # User account
+proxy_AuthToken_<token>         # Auth tokens
+proxy_DnsProvider_<id>          # DNS provider
+proxy_Domain_<domain>           # Domain info
+<hostname>:latest               # SSL certificate cache
+```
+
+## Request Flow
+
+### Standard HTTP/HTTPS Request
+
+1. **Client** sends HTTPS request to `app.example.com`
+2. **OpenResty** receives request, terminates SSL
+3. **Lua script** (`targetinfo.lua`) queries **Redis first** for host config
+4. If **found in Redis**, jump to step 7 (Node.js not involved)
+5. If **not in Redis**, Lua queries Node.js via Unix socket as fallback
+6. **Node.js** performs host lookup (supports wildcards), caches result in Redis
+7. **OpenResty** proxies request to backend service using target IP and port
+8. **Response** proxied back to client
+
+**Resilience**: If Node.js goes down, all hosts already cached in Redis continue to work. Only new/uncached hosts will fail until Node.js recovers.
+
+### Wildcard SSL Certificate Request
+
+1. **User** creates wildcard host (`*.example.com`) via API
+2. **Node.js** validates domain has DNS provider configured
+3. **Let's Encrypt** DNS-01 challenge initiated
+4. **DNS provider** API creates TXT record (`_acme-challenge.example.com`)
+5. **Let's Encrypt** validates TXT record
+6. **Certificate** generated and stored in Redis
+7. **DNS provider** cleans up TXT record
+8. **Background scheduler** monitors expiration, renews 30 days before expiry
+
+## Host Lookup Algorithm
+
+The lookup tree enables sophisticated domain matching:
+
+```
+Input: "api.v1.example.com"
+
+Tree Structure:
+{
+  "com": {
+    "example": {
+      "*": {          // Matches api.example.com
+        "#record": {...}
+      },
+      "v1": {
+        "api": {      // Matches api.v1.example.com (exact)
+          "#record": {...}
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+Priority: Exact > Single wildcard (*) > Double wildcard (**)
+```
+
+**Wildcard Types:**
+- `example.com` - Exact match only
+- `*.example.com` - Matches `sub.example.com` (single level)
+- `**.example.com` - Matches any depth (`sub.deep.example.com`)
+- `api.*.example.com` - Matches `api.v1.example.com`, `api.v2.example.com`
+
+## Security Architecture
+
+### Authentication Flow
+
+1. User sends credentials to `/api/auth/login`
+2. Credentials validated against stored hash (bcrypt)
+3. Token generated and stored in Redis with TTL
+4. Token returned to client
+5. Subsequent requests include token in `auth-token` header
+6. Middleware validates token before processing request
+
+### SSL Certificate Security
+
+- **Private keys** stored only in Redis (memory/disk based on config)
+- **Fallback certificates** used when SNI unavailable
+- **Let's Encrypt** rate limiting respected
+- **DNS provider credentials** marked as `isPrivate` (not returned in API)
+
+### Unix Socket Communication
+
+- Socket file: `/var/run/proxy_lookup.socket`
+- Permissions: `777` (container-safe, single-use deployment)
+- Protocol: JSON over Unix stream socket
+- Buffer handling: Accumulates partial messages until complete JSON
+
+## Performance Optimizations
+
+### Caching Strategy
+
+The system uses a multi-tier caching approach:
+
+1. **Redis (L1 Cache)** - OpenResty checks Redis FIRST for every request
+   - Primary host configuration storage
+   - Survives Node.js restarts/failures
+   - Shared across all OpenResty workers
+
+2. **Node.js Lookup Tree (L2 Cache)** - In-memory host lookup with wildcard matching
+   - Only queried when Redis has no entry
+   - Rebuilt automatically when hosts change
+   - Supports complex wildcard resolution
+
+3. **Wildcard Parent Caching** - Resolved wildcard matches stored back to Redis
+   - Subsequent requests to `api.example.com` hit Redis directly
+   - No repeated wildcard resolution needed
+
+### Unix Socket vs HTTP API
+
+Unix socket chosen over HTTP for host lookups:
+- **Lower latency** - No TCP overhead
+- **Higher throughput** - No HTTP parsing
+- **Simpler** - Direct JSON communication
+- **Secure** - Filesystem permissions, no network exposure
+
+## Scalability Considerations
+
+### Current Architecture
+
+- **Single instance** - OpenResty + Node.js + Redis on one server
+- **Vertical scaling** - Add CPU/RAM as needed
+- **Limitations** - Unix socket ties OpenResty to Node.js on same host
+
+### Future Scaling Options
+
+- **Redis cluster** - Distribute data storage
+- **Multiple OpenResty instances** - Load balance incoming requests
+- **Stateless Node.js** - Run multiple API instances
+- **Replace Unix socket** - Use TCP/HTTP for cross-host communication
+- **Separate cert management** - Dedicated service for wildcard SSL
+
+## Monitoring and Observability
+
+### Logs
+
+- **OpenResty**: `/var/log/nginx/access.log`, `/var/log/nginx/error.log`
+- **Node.js**: `journalctl -u proxy.service`
+- **Redis**: `redis-cli MONITOR`
+
+### Health Checks
+
+- Node.js API: `curl http://localhost:3000/api/host`
+- Redis: `redis-cli PING`
+- OpenResty: `systemctl status openresty`
+- Unix socket: `ls -la /var/run/proxy_lookup.socket`
+
+### Metrics to Monitor
+
+- Request rate and response times
+- SSL certificate expiration dates
+- Redis memory usage
+- Host lookup cache hit rate
+- Background service execution times

+
+# 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

+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.
+
+A token acts **as you**, with **your** [permissions](concepts-access.html)
+— if you're only a Manager on one domain, a token you create can't touch
+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.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page doesn't attempt to list every API endpoint or show request/
+response examples — for that, see the full [API reference](api.html).

+description: A plain-language guide to why theta42/proxy needs a DNS provider, and only for wildcard certificates.
+---
+
+# 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.
+

+
+# 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?

+
+## Testing
+
+The project uses Node.js built-in test runner (requires Node 18+).
+

+
+### Writing Tests
+
+We test **custom logic**, not third-party libraries:
+
+**DO test:**
+- Host lookup algorithm
+- Socket buffering logic
+- DNS provider contracts
+- Custom utility functions
+
+**DON'T test:**
+- Express.js routing
+- Redis ORM
+- External DNS APIs (use mocks instead)
+
+### Adding DNS Provider Tests
+
+When adding a new DNS provider, you **must** add contract tests:
+
+```javascript
+describe('NewProvider Provider', () => {
+    const NewProvider = require('../../models/dns_provider/newprovider');
+
+    test('should meet DNS provider contract', () => {
+        const mockCredentials = {api_key: 'mock-key'};
+        const instance = validateDnsProviderContract(NewProvider, mockCredentials);
+        assert.ok(instance);
+    });
+
+    test('should have valid method signatures', () => {
+        const instance = new NewProvider({api_key: 'mock'});
+        validateMethodSignatures(instance);
+    });
+
+    test('should validate key mapping', () => {
+        const instance = new NewProvider({api_key: 'mock'});
+        validateKeyMapping(instance);
+    });
+
+    test('should validate type checking', () => {
+        const instance = new NewProvider({api_key: 'mock'});
+        validateTypeChecking(instance);
+    });
+});
+```
+
+See `test/integration/dns_provider.test.js` for examples.
+
+## Code Style
+
+### General Guidelines
+
+- Use strict mode: `'use strict';`
+- Use tabs for indentation
+- Clear, descriptive variable names
+- Comment complex logic
+- No trailing whitespace
+
+### File Organization
+
+```javascript
+'use strict';
+
+// 1. Node.js built-ins
+const fs = require('fs');
+const path = require('path');
+
+// 2. Third-party modules
+const express = require('express');
+const redis = require('redis');
+
+// 3. Local modules
+const {Host} = require('./models');
+const middleware = require('./middleware/auth');
+
+// 4. Code...
+```
+
+### Naming Conventions
+
+- Classes: `PascalCase`
+- Functions: `camelCase`
+- Constants: `UPPER_SNAKE_CASE`
+- Private methods: `__privateMethod` (double underscore prefix)

+## Data Models
+
+The project uses [model-redis](https://www.npmjs.com/package/model-redis) as the ORM for Redis data storage. All models extend the `Table` class and use a declarative schema via `_keyMap`.
+
+**Example Model:**
+```javascript
+const Table = require('../utils/redis_model');
+
+class Host extends Table {
+    static _key = 'host';  // Primary key field
+    static _keyMap = {
+        'host': {isRequired: true, type: 'string', min: 3, max: 500},
+        'ip': {isRequired: true, type: 'string', min: 3, max: 500},
+        'targetPort': {isRequired: true, type: 'number', min: 0, max: 65535},
+        'forcessl': {default: true, type: 'boolean'},
+        'created_on': {default: () => Date.now(), type: 'number'}
+    };
+}
+```

+---
+
+# Proxy
+
+A reverse proxy and HTTPS termination service built on OpenResty/nginx, with a
+management API and web GUI. It puts any of your apps behind single sign-on
+(OIDC) and can also look users up directly in LDAP — so the same people who
+log in to your SSO are the people allowed to reach your proxied apps.
+
+Automatic HTTPS from Let's Encrypt (including wildcards), routing by hostname,
+and per-host access control tied to your identity provider — managed from a
+web UI or a REST API, with no downtime on config changes.
+
+Part of the theta42 self-hosted identity stack, alongside
+[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/) and
+[theta-env](https://theta42.github.io/theta-env/) (the two composed with one
+command).

+
+Basic auth and SSO are mutually exclusive per host, with per-user password
+management once basic auth is enabled:

+
+## Why this over the alternatives
+
+Nginx Proxy Manager, Traefik, and Caddy are all good reverse proxies with
+auto-HTTPS. This one is built around identity: it is both an **OIDC client**
+of an SSO provider (for browser login) **and** a direct **LDAP client** (for
+user lookups and per-host access control), so access decisions come from your
+real user directory, not a static allow-list or a separate auth proxy bolted
+on top. The trade-off is that it expects an OIDC/LDAP identity source to point
+at — it is not an auth server on its own. Pair it with
+[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/) (bundled OpenLDAP +
+OIDC) for a self-hosted SSO + proxy stack, or point it at any OIDC provider +
+LDAP directory you already run.
+
+## Features
+
+- Automated HTTPS via Let's Encrypt — HTTP-01 and DNS-01 (wildcard) challenges
+- Multiple DNS providers (Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, PorkBun, DuckDNS — free)
+- Dynamic host routing with wildcard domain matching (`*`, `**`)
+- **Multi-target load balancing** — configure multiple backend targets per host with built-in round-robin load balancing
+- **OIDC login** and **direct LDAP lookups**, independently of each other
+- Per-host **basic auth** as an alternative to SSO (mutually exclusive, so
+  it's never ambiguous which one gated a request)
+- **Role-based access control** — global admins, local groups, and
+  per-domain permissions (viewer/manager)
+- Self-service API tokens for scripting/CI without a browser session
+- Web UI and a full REST API

+title: Secrets (OpenBao)
+description: theta-suite's central secrets architecture — OpenBao as the single store for all app, per-user, and external-app secrets, with scoped tokens and policies.
+---
+
+# Secrets — OpenBao as the central store
+
+theta-suite keeps **every secret in one place: [OpenBao](https://openbao.org/)**
+(a Vault-community fork), running on the `theta-net` docker network at
+`http://openbao:8200`. The three apps (SSO Manager, proxy, jump host) load
+their boot secrets from it; end users get personal per-user secret storage
+through the SSO UI; and external apps get scoped, self-contained access to
+their own namespace.
+
+This page is the operator reference. For the package API, see
+[@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/).
+
+## Why a central store
+
+Before this, secret handling was partial and inconsistent: only the SSO read
+one path from OpenBao; the proxy and jump host read bind-mounted
+`./config/*-secrets.js` files; the bootstrap wrote generated OAuth creds to
+those files on disk; and the SSO `/api/vault` UI was an ungated, broken
+pass-through. Centralising on OpenBao gives every app the same fail-soft load
+path, makes per-user secret storage possible, and lets external apps get
+least-privilege access without anyone handing them the root token.
+
+## The load path (every app)
+
+1. `@simpleworkjs/conf` **synchronously** loads the bind-mounted
+   `./config/<app>-secrets.js` at require time — the file is the operator-edit
+   layer and the fail-soft fallback.
+2. `@simpleworkjs/bao-conf`'s `init({ path: '<app>', conf })` **deep-merges**
+   `secret/data/<app>/conf` from OpenBao over the live `conf` object. It is
+   **fail-soft**: if OpenBao is unreachable or the path is absent, boot
+   continues with the file-loaded config.
+3. A few secrets are **captured at require time** (notably the OIDC
+   `clientSecret`, consumed inside `createOidcClient` during
+   `require('../models')`). So `init()` must resolve *before* that
+   `require()`. Each app's `bin/www` handles this:
+   - **proxy** — defers `require('../app')` (which transitively loads models)
+     behind `bao-conf.init()`.
+   - **jump host** — gates the explicit `require('../models')` behind
+     `bao-conf.init()`.
+   - **SSO** — swaps the old `conf_manager.init()` call (same position in its
+     existing `.then()` boot chain) for `bao-conf.init()`; nothing in the SSO
+     captures a secret at require time, so no reordering was needed.
+
+`VAULT_TOKEN` (a scoped per-app token, **not** the root token) and
+`VAULT_ADDR=http://openbao:8200` are passed to each container via
+`docker-compose.yml`. The `./config/*-secrets.js` mounts stay as the fallback.
+
+## Policies, token role, and tokens
+
+`setup.sh` creates the ACL policies and mints the per-app tokens
+(idempotently — re-running keeps existing tokens and re-mints only expired
+ones). The root token stays in `.env` for setup/maintenance **only** and is
+never passed to a service container.
+
+| Policy | Capabilities | Held by |
+|---|---|---|
+| `sso-broker` | read/write `secret/sso-manager/conf`, `secret/users/*`, `secret/apps/*`, `secret/plugins/*`; `update` on `auth/token/create/sso-broker` + `create/sso-app` and `auth/token/renew-accessor`/`revoke-accessor`/`lookup-accessor`; `update` on `sys/policies/acl/user-*`, `app-*`, `sso-admin` | SSO (`SSO_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `sso-admin` | read/write/list all of `secret/*` | admin UI sessions (minted by the broker) |
+| `proxy` | read `secret/proxy/conf` | proxy (`PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `jump-host` | read `secret/jump-host/conf` | jump host (`JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN`) |
+| `user-<uid>` | read/write `secret/users/<uid>/*` | per-user tokens (minted lazily by the broker) |
+| `app-<name>` | read/write `secret/apps/<name>/*` | per-external-app tokens (minted by an admin) |
+
+**Token roles** — three, all orphan + renewable:
+
+- `sso-broker` — `allowed_policies=sso-admin`, `allowed_policies_glob=user-*,app-*`,
+  `token_period=24h`. The SSO mints per-user and per-admin tokens *through*
+  this role at runtime, so it never needs the root token to issue scoped
+  access. The 24h period is fine here because the broker re-mints these from
+  its Redis cache transparently.
+- `sso-app` — `allowed_policies_glob=app-*`, `token_period=768h`. External-app
+  tokens minted from the vault UI's Apps tab go through this role: they are
+  long-lived credentials, so they get a monthly period instead of a daily one.
+- `theta-svc` — `allowed_policies=sso-broker,proxy,jump-host`,
+  `token_period=768h`. The services' own tokens (below).
+
+### Token lifecycle — nothing expires by surprise
+
+Periodic tokens never hit a max TTL, but they die if nothing renews them
+inside a period window. Renewal is automated at every layer:
+
+- **Service tokens** (`SSO_VAULT_TOKEN`, `PROXY_VAULT_TOKEN`,
+  `JUMP_VAULT_TOKEN`, minted via `theta-svc`, stored in `./.env`): the
+  `bao-renewer` sidecar (docker-compose) renews all three every 12 hours, and
+  every `setup.sh` re-run renews them too. A valid-but-non-periodic token from
+  an older install is detected, revoked, and re-minted as periodic on the next
+  `setup.sh` run.
+- **External-app tokens** (minted in the SSO vault UI): the SSO stores each
+  token's **accessor** (which can renew/revoke but not authenticate) and
+  renews it every 6 hours and at boot — a downstream app's credential stays
+  valid as long as the SSO is running, with no renewal code in the downstream
+  app. Re-minting an app's token revokes the previous one via its accessor, so
+  exactly one credential per app is ever live.
+- **Per-user / admin tokens**: 24h TTL by design; the broker re-mints them
+  transparently, so there is nothing to renew.
+
+Worst case (the whole stack was down for >32 days): re-run `./setup.sh` — it
+re-mints anything that lapsed; external-app tokens are re-minted from the
+Apps tab (the app's policy and stored secrets are kept).
+
+## Seeding
+
+`setup.sh` seeds, on first run only (skipped if the path already exists):
+
+- `secret/sso-manager/conf` — from `./config/sso-secrets.js` (operator-set
+  LDAP/SMTP/`jwtSecret`; the SSO has no bootstrap-generated creds, so the file
+  is the complete source of truth).
+- `secret/proxy/conf` — from `./config/proxy-secrets.js` (placeholder OAuth
+  creds at this point).
+- `secret/jump-host/conf` — from `./config/jump-secrets.js` after the bootstrap
+  writes it.
+
+The **bootstrap** (`bootstrap/bootstrap.js`) then generates the real OAuth
+client credentials and writes the *complete* `proxy-secrets.js` and
+`jump-secrets.js` objects into `secret/proxy/conf` and `secret/jump-host/conf`
+(POST, replacing the placeholder seed). After the first run, OpenBao is
+authoritative; the `./config/*-secrets.js` files are operator-edit seed
+artifacts and the fail-soft fallback.
+
+## End-user personal secrets
+
+Every logged-in user has a personal namespace `secret/users/<uid>/*`, reached
+through the SSO UI at **Vault → My Secrets**. The SSO mints a `user-<uid>`
+token on first access (cached in Redis for the token's lifetime) and proxies
+`/api/vault` to OpenBao with **that** token injected server-side — the
+client's SSO session token never reaches OpenBao.
+
+- **Non-admins** see only their own namespace; the UI fixes the path prefix
+  to `users/<uid>/`. They can list, read, write, and delete secrets there.
+- **Admins** (`app_sso_admin` / `app_super_admin`) get free-form access across
+  all of `secret/` plus an **Apps** tab (see below).
+
+Scoping is enforced at **two** layers: the SSO's `scopeGuard` rejects any path
+outside the subject's prefix with a 403 (defense-in-depth), and the token's
+own OpenBao policy enforces the same at the API layer.
+
+## External apps
+
+An external (non-theta42) app gets scoped access to its own namespace,
+`secret/apps/<name>/*`, via a token an admin mints once from the SSO UI's
+**Vault → Apps** tab. The token is shown **once** (copy it immediately; it is
+not stored retrievably) and confined by an `app-<name>` policy.
+
+Convention:
+
+- `secret/apps/<name>/conf` for config-style secrets, `secret/apps/<name>/*`
+  for arbitrary keys.
+- The app authenticates with the header `X-Vault-Token: <minted token>`
+  against `http://<openbao-host>:8200/v1/secret/data/apps/<name>/...`.
+
+Non-Node consumers (curl):
+
+```bash
+VAULT_ADDR=http://openbao:8200   # or your external-facing openbao address
+# Write
+curl -X POST "$VAULT_ADDR/v1/secret/data/apps/my-service/conf" \
+  -H "X-Vault-Token: <token>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"data":{"db_password":"..."}}'
+# Read
+curl -s "$VAULT_ADDR/v1/secret/data/apps/my-service/conf" \
+  -H "X-Vault-Token: <token>" | jq .data.data
+```
+
+Node consumers can use [@simpleworkjs/bao-conf](https://simpleworkjs.github.io/bao-conf/)
+directly:
+
+```js
+const baoConf = require('@simpleworkjs/bao-conf');
+const data = await baoConf.get('apps/my-service/conf'); // secret/data/apps/my-service/conf
+await baoConf.set('apps/my-service/conf', { db_password: '...' });
+```
+
+## Plugin secrets
+
+The SSO Manager's plugin system (configurable plugin instances you create,
+edit, load/unload, and run from the **Plugins** page) stores each instance's
+secrets in its own OpenBao namespace, `secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf`,
+rather than in the static `sso-secrets.js` `discovery.plugins` block. The
+SSO reads and writes these server-side through the `sso-broker` token (the
+plugin runs in-process as a BullMQ worker, so it needs no token of its own),
+and the admin UI only ever sees masked (`********`) values.
+
+- A **plugin type** is a module under `nodejs/plugins/<category>/<type>.js`
+  exporting a manifest (`configSchema` declares which fields are `secret`).
+- A **plugin instance** is a configured, loadable/unloadable copy of a type,
+  tracked in the `PluginInstance` table; you can have multiple instances of the
+  same type (e.g. two Proxmox endpoints with their own tokens).
+- Non-secret config lives in the DB row; only the `secret:true` field values
+  live in `secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf`.
+
+Deleting an instance removes both the DB row and its `secret/plugins/<id>/*`
+namespace. Legacy `discovery.plugins` entries in `sso-secrets.js` are migrated
+to instances automatically on the first boot of SSO Manager ≥ v1.17.0 (the
+secret fields are copied into OpenBao at that point). See the SSO Manager
+[plugins docs](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/plugins.html) for the
+UI/API reference.
+
+## Operator rotation
+
+If a secret is exposed (or just on a routine schedule), rotate it at the
+**provider** first (the LDAP server, the SMTP host, the OAuth `jwtSecret`,
+etc.), then update OpenBao:
+
+```bash
+# Read the current sso-manager conf
+docker exec -e BAO_TOKEN="$VAULT_TOKEN" openbao bao kv get secret/sso-manager/conf
+# Write a new value (KV-v2 POST replaces the data; merge carefully)
+docker exec -e BAO_TOKEN="$VAULT_TOKEN" openbao bao kv put secret/sso-manager/conf \
+  ldap.bindPassword='<new>' smtp.password='<new>' oauth.jwtSecret='<new>'
+```
+
+Then restart the affected app so `bao-conf.init()` re-reads it
+(`docker compose restart sso-manager`). Call-time readers pick up the change
+on next read; require-time captures (OIDC `clientSecret`) need the restart.
+
+> The SSO admin **Configuration** UI (`/api/conf`) writes `secret/sso-manager/conf`
+> and updates the live conf immediately, so SMTP/discovery/oauth edits made
+> there don't need a manual `bao kv put`.
+
+## Backups
+
+The OpenBao data volume `openbao-data` holds every secret. Back it up with the
+rest of the stack (see the README's *Backups and restore* section). The
+`./config/*-secrets.js` files are **not** a complete secret backup once OpenBao
+is authoritative — they're the first-run seed and the fallback. A full disaster
+recovery restores both the `openbao-data` volume (the authoritative store) and
+`./config/` (the seed/fallback), then runs `./setup.sh` to unseal OpenBao and
+re-mint the per-app tokens.
+
+## What's not in scope yet
+
+- **Renewal automation** — per-app/user tokens use OpenBao's default TTL and
+  are re-minted by `setup.sh` on expiry; a periodic renewal worker is a
+  follow-up.
+- **History scrubbing** — if a secret was committed to git, rotating it is the
+  fix; scrubbing it from git history (BFG / `git filter-repo`) is a separate,
+  git-destructive operation you can opt into.
+- **Per-app secrets beyond boot config** (e.g. the proxy's DNS-provider creds,
+  the jump host's per-user LDAP SSH keys) moving into OpenBao — only the
+  boot-critical `*-secrets.js` contents moved in this phase. (Plugin instance
+  secrets *are* in OpenBao, at `secret/plugins/<id>/conf` — see above.)

+title: Discovery Agents

+---
+
+# Discovery Agents
+
+The SSO Manager supports a robust agent architecture for auto-discovering devices, hosts, and services across your home lab or data center. Agents run on a scheduled cron and feed their data into a central **Reconciliation Engine** that smartly merges information based on MAC addresses and IPs.
+
+## Writing a Custom Agent
+
+Agents are simple JavaScript files placed in `nodejs/agents/discovery/`.
+
+A agent must export a single `discover` async function that returns a standardized graph of `resources` and `edges`.
+
+### Agent Skeleton
+
+```javascript
+// nodejs/agents/discovery/my_custom_agent.js
+module.exports = {
+  discover: async (config) => {
+    const { url, apiKey } = config; // Provided by your configuration
+    
+    const resources = [];
+    const edges = [];
+
+    // 1. Fetch your data from an API
+    // const data = await fetch(...);
+
+    // 2. Map data to Resources
+    resources.push({
+      kind: 'network_device', // 'host', 'service', 'network_device', 'unmanaged_device'
+      name: 'My Switch',
+      slug: 'my-switch-01',
+      metadata: {
+        make: 'Vendor',
+        model: 'Model X',
+        interfaces: [
+          { mac: '00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E', ip: '10.0.0.5' }
+        ]
+      }
+    });
+
+    // 3. Map relations to Edges (optional)
+    edges.push({
+      parentSlug: 'my-switch-01',
+      childSlug: 'some-connected-client-slug',
+      relation: 'connected_to' // 'hosts', 'exposes', 'connected_to'
+    });
+
+    return { resources, edges };
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Agents are automatically loaded and executed by the internal BullMQ job scheduler. You configure them in your `config/sso-secrets.js`:
+
+```javascript
+module.exports = {
+  // ... existing config ...
+  discovery: {
+    agents: {
+      my_custom_agent: {
+        enabled: true,
+        cron: '*/30 * * * *', // Run every 30 minutes
+        url: 'https://api.example.com',
+        apiKey: 'secret-key'
+      },
+      nmap: {
+        enabled: true,
+        cron: '0 * * * *',
+        targetRange: '192.168.1.0/24'
+      }
+    }
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## The Reconciliation Engine
+
+When your agent returns its graph, the Reconciliation Engine takes over:
+1. **Matching:** It tries to find an existing device in the database matching any MAC address provided in the `interfaces` array. If no MAC matches, it falls back to IP address, and then to `slug`.
+2. **Merging:** If it finds a match, it gracefully merges the metadata (so your agent can add CPU info to a host that NMAP previously found).
+3. **Source Tracking:** It records your agent's filename in the `discovery_sources` array on the resource, and updates the `last_seen` timestamp.
+4. **LDAP Spam Prevention:** Brand new devices are marked as `managed: false`. They will not pollute your LDAP directory until an admin explicitly promotes them.

+title: Accounts, Groups & Managers
+description: A plain-language guide to users, service accounts, personal groups, and managers in SSO Manager.
+---
+
+# Accounts, Groups & Managers
+
+This page explains the concepts behind the Users and Groups pages in plain
+language. If you want the technical schema/attribute-level detail instead,
+see the [LDAP reference](ldap.html).
+
+## What's an account?
+
+Every person (or app) that can sign in through this SSO Manager has an
+**account** — a username, a display name, maybe an email address, and a
+password (or, for service accounts, no password at all — see below).
+Accounts live in the directory this app manages, and any other app you've
+connected (Gitea, Home Assistant, your Wi-Fi, whatever) checks against these
+same accounts instead of keeping its own separate list of users and
+passwords.
+
+## Two kinds of account: people and service accounts
+
+Most accounts belong to an actual person — check **Users → People** to see
+them. But sometimes you need an account for something that *isn't* a
+person: a media server, a backup script, a bind account another app uses to
+look people up. These are **service accounts**, listed separately under
+**Users → Service Accounts**, and they're different from a person's account
+in two ways that matter:
+
+- **No email required.** A service account doesn't need a mailbox, so the
+  form doesn't ask for one.
+- **A password is optional.** If you leave it blank, nobody can log in as
+  that account — which is exactly what you want for something that only
+  ever gets used programmatically (a script authenticating with an API
+  token, or another app binding with a fixed, separately-configured
+  password you set yourself). Only give it a password if the account
+  genuinely needs to log in or bind somewhere as itself.
+
+Aside from those two differences, a service account is a completely normal
+account under the hood — it can belong to groups, have a manager, and so
+on, just like anyone else's.
+
+## Groups: who can do what
+
+A **group** is just a named list of accounts, used to control access. This
+app has a handful of built-in groups that grant admin powers (e.g. only
+people in the `app_sso_admin` group can see the Users/Groups/Directory/Overview
+pages at all), but you can also make your own groups for any app you
+connect — say, a group listing everyone who should be allowed into your
+photo server. Once a group exists, add or remove members from the
+**Groups** page, and point the other app's "who's allowed in" setting at
+that group's name.
+
+### Groups inside groups
+
+A group can contain another group, not just people — the *Nested* tab on any
+group card. Everyone in the inner group counts as a member of the outer one,
+however many levels deep it goes.
+
+This is mostly a way to stop repeating yourself. Make one `developers` group,
+nest it into the handful of things developers should reach, and adding a new
+developer to that one group grants all of them at once — instead of adding them
+to each individually and slowly drifting out of sync. The app already does this
+for itself: super admins are nested into every resource's admin group, and each
+admin group into its access group, so "can administer it" always implies "can
+use it".
+
+Two things it won't let you do: put a group inside itself (directly or round a
+longer loop), and empty a group completely — every group must keep at least one
+member.
+
+A note if you also manage the directory by hand: a group's member list shows
+what is *directly* listed on it. Someone who gets in through a nested group is
+a real member but won't appear there — the **Nested** tab shows what is nested,
+and the API's `effective` view lists everyone who actually gets in.
+
+## Every account's personal group
+
+Separately from the groups above, every single account — person or
+service account — automatically gets its own small, personal group when
+it's created, named after the account itself. Most of the time you'll
+never think about this; it exists so that, on a Linux system connected to
+this directory, each account "owns" its own files by default the same way
+a normal Unix user account would.
+
+Occasionally you'll want to share that ownership with someone else — for
+example, letting a second account also have write access to files a
+service account owns. That's what the **"Members of `<uid>`'s group"**
+section on a profile page is for: add another account there, and the
+underlying Linux permissions treat them as if they belong to that same
+personal group too.
+
+## What's a "manager"?
+
+Every account has one or more **managers** — the people allowed to edit
+that account's profile (phone number, SSH key, home directory, and so on)
+without needing full admin rights. By default, whoever created an account
+(the admin who added it, or whoever sent the invite) becomes its first
+manager, but you can add or remove managers later from the account's Edit
+form.
+
+This is useful for service accounts especially: if a service account
+belongs to a particular project or person, make them its manager so they
+can maintain it — rotate its SSH key, adjust its description — without
+needing to be a full SSO administrator.
+
+## Inviting someone vs. adding them yourself
+
+From the Users page you can either fill in someone's details yourself
+("Add new user"), or send them an **invite** — an email (or a link you copy
+and send however you like) that lets them pick their own username and
+password. Either way, the resulting account is identical; invites are just
+a convenience so you don't have to know someone's preferred username or
+handle their password directly.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page deliberately leaves out LDAP schema names, attribute types, and
+protocol-level detail. If you're connecting a third-party app directly to
+the LDAP directory, or you just want to know exactly what's stored where,

+description: A plain-language guide to personal access tokens in SSO Manager.

+
+# 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](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/blob/master/API.md).
+
+## 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 syncs users or groups from somewhere else into this SSO
+  Manager on a schedule.
+- A backup or monitoring job that checks this app's health via its API.
+- A CI/CD pipeline that needs to register or update an OAuth client
+  automatically.
+
+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.
+
+A token acts **as you**, with **your** permissions — if you're not an
+admin, a token you create can't do admin-only things 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.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page doesn't attempt to list every API endpoint or show request/
+response examples — for that, see the full [API reference](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/blob/master/API.md).

+title: Connecting Apps (Single Sign-On)
+description: A plain-language guide to OAuth/OIDC clients and single sign-on in SSO Manager.
+---
+
+# Connecting Apps (Single Sign-On)
+
+This page explains, in plain language, what happens when you "connect" an
+app to your SSO Manager so people can log into it with their existing
+account. For the technical endpoint/token detail, see the
+[OAuth reference](oauth.html).
+
+## What does "single sign-on" actually mean?
+
+Instead of every app you run having its own separate list of usernames and
+passwords, they all check with this SSO Manager instead. You log in once,
+here, and any connected app trusts that login — no separate password to
+remember or manage for each one. If you ever need to lock someone out
+everywhere at once, you do it in one place (deactivate their account here)
+instead of hunting down every app individually.
+
+The technology behind this is called **OAuth 2.0** and **OpenID Connect
+(OIDC)** — you'll see both names used, often together, referring to the
+same thing. You don't need to understand the protocol to use this page;
+what matters practically is the handful of concepts below.
+
+## What's a "client"?
+
+Every app you connect is registered here as a **client** — a single entry
+in the Directory representing that one app. Registering a client
+gives you a **Client ID** and **Client Secret**: think of these like a
+username and password, but for the *app itself* rather than for a person.
+You paste them into the other app's own "Single Sign-On" or "OIDC" setup
+screen, along with the discovery URL shown at the top of this page, and
+that app is now able to ask this SSO Manager to authenticate people on its
+behalf.
+
+**Treat the Client Secret like a password** — anyone who has it can
+impersonate that app when talking to your SSO Manager. If you ever suspect
+it's leaked, rotate it from the client's card.
+
+## What are "scopes"?
+
+**Scopes** control what information a connected app is allowed to ask for
+about the person logging in — their username, email, group memberships,
+and so on. Most apps tell you exactly which scopes they need in their own
+setup instructions; when in doubt, the default set (`openid`, `profile`,
+`email`, `groups`) covers what nearly every app expects.
+
+## "Restrict to Groups"
+
+By default, *any* account with an SSO Manager login can sign into a
+connected app. If that's not what you want — say, a home automation
+dashboard that only certain family members should reach — set **Restrict
+to Groups** on that client to one of your [groups](concepts-accounts.html).
+Only members of that group will be allowed to log into that particular
+app; everyone else gets turned away at the login step, even though their
+SSO Manager account still works everywhere else.
+
+## Redirect URIs
+
+A **Redirect URI** is the exact web address the connected app wants people
+sent back to once they've logged in here — it's a security measure so an
+attacker can't trick the login flow into redirecting somewhere else. The
+app's own setup instructions will tell you this value; copy it in exactly
+as given. If the app is reachable via more than one hostname (for example,
+because it sits behind [theta42/proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/)),
+this field supports wildcard patterns — see the inline help under the
+field itself for the exact syntax.
+
+## Want more detail?
+
+This page intentionally skips the protocol-level detail (exact endpoint
+URLs, token formats, claim names). If you're troubleshooting a connection
+or building something against the API directly, see the
+[OAuth reference](oauth.html).

+description: SSO Manager's config layers — conf/base.js defaults, secrets.js overrides, and app_* environment variables.

+
+# Configuration
+
+[← Back to Home](index.html)
+
+The app loads configuration via
+[`@simpleworkjs/conf`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@simpleworkjs/conf), which
+deep-merges, in order (later wins):
+
+1. `conf/base.js` — committed, generic defaults (`dc=example,dc=com`,
+   `localhost`, `SSO Manager`).
+2. `conf/<NODE_ENV>.js` — optional, environment-specific.
+3. `conf/secrets.js` — gitignored; secrets + per-deployment values.
+4. **`app_*` environment variables** — the highest-precedence layer.
+
+Any env var whose name starts with `app_` overrides the merged config. The rest
+of the name splits on **double-underscore** (`__`) into a nested path. Values are
+`JSON.parse`-coerced when possible (numbers, booleans, null, JSON) and kept as
+raw strings otherwise.
+
+## Examples
+
+| Env var | Sets | Type |
+|---------|------|------|
+| `app_ldap__url=ldap://host:389` | `conf.ldap.url` | string |
+| `app_ldap__bindPassword=secret` | `conf.ldap.bindPassword` | string |
+| `app_ldap__userBase=ou=people,dc=…` | `conf.ldap.userBase` | string |
+| `app_ldap__uidGidMin=1500` | `conf.ldap.uidGidMin` | number (new-user id floor) |
+| `app_ldap__uidGidReservedFloor=9000` | `conf.ldap.uidGidReservedFloor` | number (ids at/above this are ignored when allocating) |
+| `app_ldap__ldapsHost=ldap.internal.example.com` | `conf.ldap.ldapsHost` | string (hostname shown on `/integrations` for LDAPS binds; empty = derive from `oauth.issuer`) |
+| `app_ldap__ldapsPort=636` | `conf.ldap.ldapsPort` | number (port shown on `/integrations`) |
+| `app_oauth__jwtSecret=...` | `conf.oauth.jwtSecret` | string |

+| `app_name=My SSO` | `conf.name` | string |
+| `app_redis__host=redis.local` | `conf.redis.host` | string (external Redis) |
+
+## The `app_*` env layer requires conf >= 1.1.0
+
+The `app_*` environment-variable override layer was added in
+`@simpleworkjs/conf` **1.1.0**. On 1.0.0 the app ignores all `app_*` vars and only
+reads `base.js` / `<NODE_ENV>.js` / `secrets.js`. The Docker image will not honor
+`app_*` env on 1.0.0. Refresh the lock from the `nodejs/` directory:
+
+```bash
+cd nodejs && npm install @simpleworkjs/conf@^1.1.0
+```
+
+## Inspecting the merged config
+
+From the `nodejs/` directory:
+
+```bash
+node -e "console.log(require('@simpleworkjs/conf').ldap)"
+node -e "console.log(require('@simpleworkjs/conf').oauth)"
+node -e "console.log(require('@simpleworkjs/conf'))"   # everything
+```
+
+Or, inside the running container:
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec sso-manager node -e "console.log(require('@simpleworkjs/conf').ldap)"
+```
+
+`app_*` env vars override `secrets.js`, which overrides `base.js` — if a value
+isn't what you expect, check those layers in that order.
+
+## Migrating an existing instance to the generic defaults
+
+The committed `nodejs/conf/base.js` ships **generic** defaults
+(`dc=example,dc=com`, `localhost`, `SSO Manager`). Previously it carried
+Theta42-specific values (LDAP bind DN/bases, SMTP host/user/sender, OAuth
+issuer). If you run an existing instance off this repo:
+
+- Move per-deployment, non-secret values (bind DN, user/group bases, SMTP
+  host/user/sender, OAuth issuer, org name) from `base.js` into your gitignored
+  `conf/secrets.js`, **or** set them as `app_*` env vars.
+- Secret values (LDAP bind password, SMTP password, JWT secret) already belong
+  in `secrets.js`.
+
+## Troubleshooting `app_*` env vars
+
+### `app_*` vars seem to do nothing
+
+You're on `@simpleworkjs/conf` 1.0.0. Bump to 1.1.0+ (above).
+
+### LDAP operations 401 / "Invalid Credentials"
+
+Check the merged LDAP config the app actually sees:
+
+```bash
+cd nodejs && node -e "console.log(require('@simpleworkjs/conf').ldap)"
+```
+
+Confirm `url` / `bindDN` / `bindPassword` / `userBase` match your directory.

+title: Directory Management
+description: Managing your Home-Lab infrastructure, services, and LDAP access relationships via the SSO Directory API.
+---
+
+# Directory Management
+
+The SSO Manager ships with a built-in **Directory & Inventory Management** feature. Instead of just managing bare LDAP groups for your homelab, the Directory allows you to map out your infrastructure graph and assign rich metadata to your services.
+
+## Architecture
+
+The Directory models your homelab infrastructure using a parent-child graph (e.g. `Site -> Host -> Service`).
+
+There are three primary **Kinds** of resources you can define:
+- **Site**: A physical location, datacenter, or root node (e.g., `us-east`). Sites do not require parents.
+- **Host**: A physical machine, Proxmox node, virtual machine, or LXC container. A Host **must** have a parent Site or another Host.
+- **Service (App)**: An application, web service. A Service **must** have a parent Host or another Service.
+- **OAuth Integration**: An OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect client application. An OAuth integration **must** have a parent Service.
+
+By defining this hierarchy, the SSO Manager builds a queryable graph of your infrastructure.
+
+## Automatic LDAP Group Creation
+
+When you create a new **Host** or **Service** in the Directory via the web UI (or API), the SSO Manager will automatically provision two LDAP groups in your directory to govern access to that resource:
+
+1. `<slug>_access` (Member level access)
+2. `<slug>_admin` (Owner level access)
+
+For example, if you create a Service named "Emby" with the slug `app_emby`, the system will create the LDAP groups `app_emby_access` and `app_emby_admin`. You can then assign users to these groups, and they will immediately see the service populate on their "My Services" dashboard.
+
+## Resource Metadata
+
+Resources carry a flexible `metadata` JSON object that can store essential context for your applications. The UI natively supports the following metadata fields:
+
+### Common Metadata
+- **Sub Type**: Free-form text to categorize the resource (e.g., `proxmox_node`, `linux`, `lxc`, `web`).
+- **IP Address**: The internal IP address of the resource.
+- **MAC Address**: The hardware address of the primary interface.
+- **Host / URI Address**: The FQDN or URL of the resource (e.g., `https://emby.home.arpa`).
+- **Production Environment**: A boolean toggle indicating if the resource is in production.
+
+### Host Metadata
+- **VMID**: The hypervisor VM or Container ID (e.g. `101`).
+- **OS**: The operating system name (e.g. `Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS`).
+- **Kernel**: The kernel version string (e.g. `5.15.0-100-generic`).
+
+### Service Metadata
+- **Internal Port**: The local port the service binds to (e.g. `8080`).
+- **External Port**: The reverse-proxy or external port (defaults to Internal Port if left blank).
+- **Public (No Auth)**: Indicates if the service is exposed publicly without authentication.
+- **External Reachable**: Indicates if the service is accessible outside the VPN/local network.
+- **Git Repo**: The source code repository for the service (e.g. `https://github.com/...`).
+- **Install Path**: The filesystem path where the service is installed (e.g. `/opt/app`).
+- **Systemd Service**: The systemd unit name for the service (e.g. `app.service`).
+
+### Who sees which metadata
+
+Metadata keys are declared in `@simpleworkjs/directory-schema` with an `admin` flag, and every API response is passed through its projection. There are three tiers:
+
+- **Public** — returned to any authenticated caller, including machine (`ServiceToken`) callers: `ip`, `address`, `sshPort`, `fqdn`, `dnsNames`, `port`, `externalPort`, `portMappings`, `isExternalReachable`, `os`, `gitRepo`, `subType`, `icon`, `tagline`, `isPublic`, `isProduction`, `requestable`, `isCurrentSite`.
+- **Admin-only** — only for members of `app_sso_directory_admin` / `app_sso_admin`: `vmid`, `macAddress`, `installPath`, `systemdService`, and the OAuth config keys (`redirect_uris`, `scopes`, `allowed_groups`, `token_lifetime`).
+- **Never returned** — `client_secret_hash`, plus any key matching `/secret|password|privatekey/i`. Stripped on every path, admins included.
+
+Note that machine tokens are deliberately *not* admins, so anything a machine consumer needs (the firewall generator reads `port` / `externalPort` / `isExternalReachable`) has to be in the public tier. A metadata key that isn't declared at all is treated as admin-only and will silently vanish for normal users — if you add a field to the admin form, declare it in the schema package too.
+
+## Catalog & access requests
+
+The site root (`/`) is the end-user catalog — the only ungated page in the nav. It shows:
+
+- **My Access** — everything the signed-in user can reach (`GET /api/discovery/me`), each card carrying a **how to reach it** block: the URL for a service, or the SSH invocation for a host. When `directory.jumpHost` is set in the config, host cards render the jump-host form `ssh <uid>_-_<slug>@<jumpHost>`; otherwise they fall back to a direct `ssh <uid>@<ip>`.
+- **Discover More** — everything else in the directory, with a **Request access** button.
+- **My Requests** / **Awaiting My Approval** — pending requests, and the approve/deny queue for anyone who owns a requested resource.
+
+A request is a proposal to join an LDAP group. It targets the resource's `member`-level group (the `_access` one, never `_admin`), and approving it performs the LDAP group add — so LDAP stays the single access-control truth and the table is just the audit trail. Approvals are idempotent: approving for someone already in the group succeeds rather than erroring.
+
+Requests are decided by the resource's `owner`, or by any directory admin. Mark a resource `metadata.requestable = false` to keep it out of self-service.
+
+## Navigating the UI
+
+The Directory Management interface provides a **Tree View** toggle that visually nests your resources, making it easy to comprehend your network topography at a glance. You can also filter, search, and sort your entire infrastructure inventory. From the tree view, you can click the green `+` icon next to any resource to instantly add a child resource beneath it.
+
+<a href="images/directory.png" target="_blank"><img src="images/directory.png" alt="Directory & inventory list view" width="80%"></a>
+
+## Slug conventions
+
+Slugs are the stable identifiers automation keys off, so the tooling around the SSO Manager follows a shared convention:
+
+- **Sites**: `site_<name>` — e.g. `site_local`, `site_us-east`
+- **Hosts**: `host_<hostname>` — e.g. `host_pve1`, `host_web01`
+- **Services/apps**: a plain slug or `app_<name>` — e.g. `sso-manager`, `app_emby`
+
+The auto-created LDAP groups derive from the slug (`<slug>_access` / `<slug>_admin`), so keep slugs stable once access groups are in use.
+
+## Automatic registration
+
+You don't have to build the graph by hand — the theta42 tooling registers itself:
+
+### The stack itself (theta-env)
+
+[theta-env](https://github.com/theta42/theta-env)'s `./setup.sh` seeds the directory on every run with the stack it deploys:
+
+- a **site** (name from `CFG_SITE_NAME` in `setup.env`, default `local` → slug `site_local`) marked as the current site
+- the **host** the stack runs on (`host_<hostname>`), with IP, MAC address, OS, and kernel collected from the machine
+- the **services** it composes — SSO Manager, Proxy (management UI), OpenLDAP Directory (the LDAPS endpoint Linux hosts and LDAP-native apps bind to), and OpenResty Edge (the 80/443 data plane) — each with its address, internal port, and git repo
+- the proxy's auto-registered **OAuth client**, linked under its service
+
+The seed is idempotent and non-destructive: a resource whose slug already exists is considered operator-owned — the seed only fills in metadata fields you haven't set, and never overwrites your values.
+
+### Linux hosts (ldap-client)
+
+The `ldap-client` join script enrolls a Debian/Ubuntu machine for LDAP login (SSSD/PAM), LDAP-backed `sudo`, and SSH keys from the directory — and, when given an SSO API token, registers the machine as a `host_<hostname>` resource with its IP, MAC, OS, and kernel, parented to the site named by its configured location.
+
+## Consumers of the directory
+
+The inventory graph isn't just documentation — other components read it to make decisions:
+
+- **[Jump Host](https://theta42.github.io/jump-host/)** — an SSH jump host that resolves which downstream machines a user may reach from their LDAP groups × the directory's `host` resources (`GET /api/discovery/resources?group=<cn>`), then bridges them in. The `host_<hostname>` slugs and `host_<slug>_access` groups this directory creates are exactly what it keys off; a host's `metadata.ip` / `metadata.sshPort` tell it where to connect. So a machine registered here (by theta-env or ldap-client) becomes reachable through the jump host the moment a user is in its access group.
+
+Planned consumers (end-user catalog, firewall/DNS generation) and the model/API gaps they need are tracked in [`directory_spec.md`](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/blob/master/directory_spec.md) §9.
+
+## API
+
+All of the above uses the same admin API the UI does (group `app_sso_directory_admin` or `app_sso_admin`):
+
+- `GET/POST /api/directory-admin/resources`, `PUT/DELETE /api/directory-admin/resources/:id`
+- `GET/POST/DELETE /api/directory-admin/edges` — parent/child links (`hosts`, `oauth` relations)
+- `GET/POST/DELETE /api/directory-admin/groups` — resource ↔ LDAP group links
+- `GET /api/directory-admin/access-summary` — per-resource group + member counts (the Access column)
+- `GET /api/directory-admin/user-access/:uid` — the reverse lookup: every resource a given user can reach, and via which group
+- Read-only graph views (any authenticated user): `GET /api/discovery/resources`, `/api/discovery/resources/:slug`, `/api/discovery/graph`, `/api/discovery/me`
+
+Access requests are open to any authenticated user; deciding is gated per-resource inside the router (resource owner or directory admin):
+
+- `POST /api/access-requests` — `{slug | resourceId, groupCn?, note?}`
+- `GET /api/access-requests/mine` — the caller's own history
+- `GET /api/access-requests` — pending requests the caller may decide
+- `POST /api/access-requests/:id/approve` · `POST /api/access-requests/:id/deny`
+- `DELETE /api/access-requests/:id` — the requester withdraws their own pending request

+## Why this over the alternatives
+
+Tools like Keycloak, Authentik, Authelia, or Zitadel are OIDC providers, but
+LDAP is either a paid feature, a federation target you have to run
+separately, or absent. If your stack already has apps that speak LDAP
+directly — or you just want one real directory as the source of truth — you
+end up running *two* identity systems and keeping them in sync.
+
+SSO Manager bundles the OpenLDAP directory with the OIDC provider, so OIDC
+apps and LDAP apps read from the same users and groups. The trade-off is
+scope: it's intentionally small and self-hosted, not an enterprise IAM suite.
+If you want a lightweight, self-contained identity provider with a real LDAP
+backend, that's the niche.
+
+## Features
+
+- **OpenID Connect / OAuth 2.0 provider** — your own access/refresh/ID
+  tokens; standard discovery document at `/.well-known/openid-configuration`.
+- **Bundled OpenLDAP directory** — users, groups, POSIX accounts, SSH public
+  keys, and sudo roles, with `memberOf` + referential-integrity overlays.
+- **Web management UI** — users, groups, and OAuth clients from a browser;
+  invite and password-reset flows over email; self-service profile + API
+  tokens.
+- **Direct LDAP binds** — anything that binds LDAP directly (Linux hosts
+  via PAM/SSSD, Gitea, Emby, …) uses LDAPS/StartTLS against the same
+  directory.
+- **All-in-one Docker image** — app + OpenLDAP + Redis in one container, or
+  run the pieces separately via `app_*` env config.
+- **Geo-Location Scaling** — built-in support for N-Way Multi-Master OpenLDAP [replication](replication.html) across physical sites.
+- **[Directory & Inventory](directory.html)** — map sites, hosts, and services as a graph with rich metadata (IP/MAC, OS/kernel, ports, git repos), auto-provisioned access groups, and automatic registration from theta-env and ldap-client. Drives directory-aware tools like the [SSH jump host](https://theta42.github.io/jump-host/).

+
+SSO Manager runs an OpenLDAP directory holding your users and groups. The app
+authenticates against it over `localhost:389` (inside the all-in-one container)
+and exposes **LDAPS** (`ldaps://…:636`, TLS) for anything that binds LDAP
+directly — Linux hosts (PAM/SSSD, sudo rules, SSH keys), Gitea, Emby, the
+theta42/proxy, etc.
+
+## Directory layout
+
+```
+dc=yourdomain,dc=com
+├── ou=people          users (inetOrgPerson + posixAccount + …)
+├── ou=groups          groups (groupOfNames)
+└── ou=policies        password policies (pwdPolicy)
+    └── cn=ppolicy     default policy
+```
+
+### Users
+
+User entries are `cn=<uid>,ou=people,<base>` and carry the objectClasses:
+
+- `inetOrgPerson` (cn, sn, mail, …) — identity / contact attrs.
+- `posixAccount` (uid, uidNumber, gidNumber, homeDirectory) — the SSO's
+  `userFilter` is `(objectClass=posixAccount)`, so a user is "a real account"
+  iff it has `posixAccount`.
+- `ldapPublicKey` — SSH public keys (`sshPublicKey`).
+- `sudoRole` — per-user sudo rules (`sudoCommand`, `sudoHost`, `sudoUser`).
+- `theta42Person` (custom auxiliary; `dateOfBirth`).
+
+Every user (person or service account) also carries a `manager` attribute
+(the standard COSINE `manager`, `SUP distinguishedName`) — one or more DNs of
+the people who created/administer that account. Set automatically to the
+creator's DN on signup (whoever an admin was logged in as, or whoever sent
+the invite), and reassignable later from the account's Edit form. Anyone
+listed as a `manager` can edit that account (same fields an admin can:
+mobile, description, SSH key, date of birth, home directory, login shell,
+and the manager list itself) without needing `app_sso_admin`.
+
+Passwords are stored as `{SSHA512}` (8-byte salt, sha512(pass+salt), base64),
+verified by the `pw-sha2` module. The app's `hashPasswordSSHA512` is the
+canonical hasher; if you provision users out-of-band, hash passwords the same
+way or use `slappasswd -h '{SSHA512}'`.
+
+### Groups
+
+Groups are `cn=<name>,ou=groups,<base>` (`groupOfNames`) with a `member`
+attribute listing member DNs. The `memberOf` overlay populates reverse
+membership (`memberOf` on the user); `refint` keeps it consistent on
+add/remove.
+
+Note that `groupOfNames` requires **at least one member**, which has two
+consequences worth knowing: whoever creates a group is automatically seeded
+into it, and removing the last member (user *or* nested group) is refused with
+a 409 rather than leaving an invalid entry behind.
+
+### Nested groups
+
+A `member` DN may be another group's, not just a user's — that is how nesting
+is stored, with no extra schema. Everyone in the nested group is a member of
+the outer one, at any depth. Manage it on the **Groups** page under each
+group's *Nested* tab, or via the API:
+
+```
+PUT    /api/group/:group/nested/:child    nest :child inside :group
+DELETE /api/group/:group/nested/:child    un-nest
+GET    /api/group/:group/effective        direct users, nested groups, and the
+                                          full transitive set of users
+```
+
+Cycles are refused (409) rather than truncated — a loop makes "who is in this
+group" unanswerable. Two standing relationships are wired automatically: the
+cross-app `app_super_admin` is nested into every resource's `<slug>_admin`
+group, and each `<slug>_admin` into its `<slug>_access` group, so administering
+something implies being able to use it.
+
+**Resolving nesting is a client-side job on stock OpenLDAP.** No 2.6.x release
+can evaluate nested groups; `memberOf` and a `(member=X)` filter both return
+direct membership only. The bundled slapd is therefore built from source with
+the `nestgroup` overlay (see *Modules + overlays* below), and the app is told so
+via `ldap.nestedGroupsServerSide`. Against any other server the app computes the
+closure itself — same answers, more queries. Either way, **never read `memberOf`
+directly to make an access decision**; use `utils/user_groups.js`'s `groupCns()`,
+which is correct in both modes.
+
+### Personal groups
+
+Every user (person or service account) also gets a **personal Unix group**
+at creation — `cn=<uid>,ou=groups,<base>`, `objectClass: posixGroup` (RFC
+2307), holding just `cn` and `gidNumber` (the user's primary GID). This is a
+different schema than the `groupOfNames` groups above — its membership
+attribute is `memberUid` (a bare username, not a DN), and unlike
+`groupOfNames` it's valid with zero members. It's excluded from the
+`/groups` page (which filters on `objectClass=groupOfNames`) and managed
+instead from the owning user's own profile page ("Members of `<uid>`'s
+group", admin-only) — add other accounts as supplementary members, e.g. to
+share write access to files owned by this group.
+
+The SSO seeds these groups automatically (entrypoint / `install.sh`):
+
+| Group | Grants |
+|-------|--------|
+| `app_super_admin` | cross-app super admin. Nested into the three below, so its members hold those rights transitively rather than by a special case in app code — and the privilege is visible to LDAP-native consumers (SSSD, sudo) too. |
+| `app_sso_admin` | full admin (users, groups, settings) |
+| `app_sso_oauth_admin` | OAuth client management |
+| `app_sso_invite` | invitation management |
+| `app_sso_service_account` | not a permission — marks a `posixAccount` as a non-person service account (see *Service accounts* below). Deliberately **not** nested into, since it changes how an account is displayed rather than what it may do. |
+
+## TLS (LDAPS / StartTLS)
+
+The bundled slapd generates a **self-signed cert** on first start (CN =
+`LDAP_CERT_CN`, valid 10y, SAN = CN + `localhost` + `127.0.0.1`) and listens on:
+
+- `ldaps:///` — **636**, TLS (the port to expose for direct-LDAP clients).
+- `ldap:///` — **389**, plain + StartTLS (not mapped to the host by default).
+
+The cert lives on the `ldap-certs` volume so it persists across container
+recreation.
+
+### Trusting the self-signed cert
+
+Copy it out and add it to the client's CA store:
+
+```bash
+docker compose cp sso-manager:/etc/openldap/certs/ldap.crt ./ldap.crt
+```
+
+…or, for quick LAN use, set `TLS_REQCERT never` on the client (the theta42/proxy
+sets `app_ldap__tlsOptions__rejectUnauthorized=false` for the same effect).
+
+### Using your own cert
+
+Replace the `ldap-certs` named volume with a bind mount containing your own
+`ldap.crt` + `ldap.key`:
+
+```yaml
+volumes:
+  - ./certs:/etc/openldap/certs   # must contain ldap.crt + ldap.key
+```
+
+The entrypoint leaves existing certs untouched (idempotent).
+
+## Choosing the LDAPS hostname
+
+The `/integrations` page advertises an **LDAPS URL** for direct LDAP binds. By
+default it derives that URL from the public OAuth issuer (e.g.
+`https://sso.example.com` → `ldaps://sso.example.com:636`). That is convenient,
+but it implies LDAP clients reach your directory through the same public
+hostname — which usually means port-forwarding 636 through your router.
+
+**Do not port-forward LDAPS (636) to the public internet.** LDAP simple binds
+have no rate limiting and are a brute-force target. Instead, use one of these
+internal-only patterns and set `conf.ldap.ldapsHost` (or
+`app_ldap__ldapsHost`) so the `/integrations` page shows the right URL.
+
+### 1. Same Docker / local network host (best for apps on this machine)
+
+If the LDAP client runs on the same Docker network as the SSO Manager (for
+example, the bundled `theta-env` stack), use the internal service name:
+
+```
+ldaps://sso-manager:636
+```
+
+In `conf/secrets.js`:
+
+```javascript
+ldap: {
+  ldapsHost: 'sso-manager',
+  ldapsPort: 636,
+}
+```
+
+The proxy in theta-env already uses this internally. The bundled slapd cert
+includes `sso-manager` in its SAN when `LDAP_CERT_CN` is left at its default,
+so hostname verification works without extra setup.
+
+### 2. LAN host behind your router (best for separate home-lan machines)
+
+Create an internal-only DNS record — e.g. `ldap.internal.example.com` →
+`192.168.1.10` — using your router, Pi-hole, or a local `hosts` file. Then get
+or generate a cert whose SAN/CN matches that internal name:
+
+- **Let's Encrypt wildcard** (`*.internal.example.com`) works if you own the
+  public domain and can complete DNS-01 challenge; the record itself can stay
+  private/routable only inside your LAN.
+- **Internal CA** is fine for a pure LAN: run a small CA, issue a cert for
+  `ldap.internal.example.com`, and distribute the CA cert to clients.
+- **Self-signed** with `LDAP_CERT_CN=ldap.internal.example.com` also works; copy
+  the generated `ldap.crt` to each client and trust it.
+
+In `conf/secrets.js`:
+
+```javascript
+ldap: {
+  ldapsHost: 'ldap.internal.example.com',
+  ldapsPort: 636,
+}
+```
+
+The URL on `/integrations` becomes `ldaps://ldap.internal.example.com:636`.
+
+### 3. Public hostname (acceptable only behind a VPN/firewall)
+
+If a remote host must bind LDAP, put it behind a VPN (Tailscale, WireGuard,
+etc.) or a tightly locked-down firewall rule. In that case the public hostname
+may be appropriate, but the LDAPS port should still not be reachable from the
+open internet.
+
+### Why not just use the LDAP server's IP address?
+
+TLS clients verify the server name against the certificate. Connecting to
+`ldaps://192.168.1.10:636` with a cert issued for `*.internal.example.com`
+will fail hostname verification unless you disable cert checks — which removes
+most of the security benefit of LDAPS. Always use a hostname that matches the
+cert.
+
+## Service accounts
+
+A service account is a normal `posixAccount` for something that isn't a
+person: a media manager, a torrent client, a service like Emby, or a
+read-only bind account an app uses to look users up — anything that needs a
+real `uidNumber`/`gidNumber` to own files, or that other accounts join via a
+group for write access (e.g. a `stuff_manager` group granting write rights
+to a media library). There's only one kind — every account, person or
+service, is a real `posixAccount` with a UID.
+
+Create one from the **Users → Service Accounts** tab's "Add new user" form
+with **This is a service account** checked — it skips the birthday/
+Terms-of-Service fields a real person's account needs and asks for just an
+account name. It's flagged (via membership in the `app_sso_service_account`
+group) so it's listed separately from real people and excluded from "all
+users" notification broadcasts.
+
+Email and password are both optional for a service account:
+
+- No `mail` is set unless you give it one (it never needs a mailbox).
+- Leaving the password blank is fine — no `userPassword` attribute is set at
+  all, and an entry with no `userPassword` simply can't bind with any
+  password (standard LDAP simple-bind behavior). Only set a password if the
+  account actually needs to authenticate as itself (e.g. a bind-only account
+  an app uses to look users up).
+
+theta-env's bootstrap creates its own `cn=ldapclient` bind account directly
+against LDAP (independent of this app), and the proxy binds as it — that
+account won't show up in the Service Accounts tab since it isn't managed
+through this app, but it keeps working unchanged.
+
+Either way: don't reuse the admin DN, and give a service account only the
+group memberships and `manager`s it actually needs.
+
+Example bind test (a service account with a password set):
+
+```bash
+ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://sso.example.com:636 \
+  -D "cn=ldapclient,ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com" -W \
+  -b "ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com" '(objectClass=posixAccount)' cn mail
+```
+
+## Connecting a 3rd-party app or container
+
+Most self-hosted apps with an "LDAP authentication" settings page — Gitea,
+Nextcloud, Grafana, Emby, Jenkins, etc. — or containers configured via
+`LDAP_*` env vars, all ask for the same handful of values. These are the
+`conf.ldap` values from [Configuration](configuration.html), applied to
+*your* domain:
+
+| Field the app asks for | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Host / URL | `ldaps://<your-sso-host>:636` (preferred), or `ldap://<host>:389` + StartTLS |
+| Bind DN | a dedicated service account — e.g. `cn=ldapclient,ou=people,<base>` (see above) |
+| Bind password | that service account's password |
+| User search base | `ou=people,<base>` |
+| User search filter | `(objectClass=posixAccount)` |
+| Username attribute | `uid` |
+| Email attribute | `mail` |
+| Group search base | `ou=groups,<base>` |
+| Group membership attribute | `memberOf` (on the user entry — populated by the `memberof` overlay) |
+| TLS | required for 636 (LDAPS); if using the bundled self-signed cert, either trust it (see *TLS* above) or set the app's "don't verify cert" option for LAN-only use |
+
+### Worked example: Gitea
+
+Gitea's **Admin → Authentication Sources → Add Authentication Source** (type
+LDAP, "Bind DN/Password") maps directly:
+
+- Security Protocol: `LDAPS`
+- Host / Port: your SSO host / `636`
+- Bind DN: `cn=ldapclient,ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com`
+- Bind Password: the service account's password
+- User Search Base: `ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com`
+- User Filter: `(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%s))`
+- Username Attribute: `uid`
+- E-mail Attribute: `mail`
+
+Other apps with an LDAP settings UI follow the same shape — the field names
+above are the constants; only the base DN and hostname change per deployment.
+
+### Generic Docker container (`LDAP_*` env vars)
+
+For images that take a flat env-var LDAP config (there's no single standard,
+but most look like this):
+
+```yaml
+environment:
+  LDAP_URL: ldaps://sso.example.com:636
+  LDAP_BIND_DN: cn=ldapclient,ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com
+  LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD: <service-account-password>
+  LDAP_USER_BASE: ou=people,dc=yourdomain,dc=com
+  LDAP_USER_FILTER: (objectClass=posixAccount)
+  LDAP_GROUP_BASE: ou=groups,dc=yourdomain,dc=com
+```
+
+Check the specific image's docs for its actual variable names — the values
+you plug in are still the ones from the table above.
+
+### Full Linux host auth (SSH, sudo, login) instead of a single app
+
+If you want a *host* (not just one app) to authenticate logins, SSH keys, and
+sudo against this LDAP directory — not just one application — that's a
+different integration (SSSD + PAM + NSS, not a single bind). See
+[theta42/ldap-client](https://github.com/theta42/ldap-client): a script that
+configures SSSD on Ubuntu/Debian hosts against this directory, including
+group-based access control and SSH public key retrieval from LDAP.
+
+## Modules + overlays (external LDAP servers)
+
+If you point the app at your own LDAP server instead of the bundled slapd, it
+needs:
+
+- **Modules:** `pw-sha2` (the app stores user passwords as `{SSHA512}`),
+  `ppolicy`, `memberof`, `refint`.
+- **Optional — `nestgroup`:** server-side nested-group evaluation. Not in any
+  released OpenLDAP (added to master as ITS#10161 in March 2024; 2.7 is still
+  unreleased), so the bundled image builds slapd from a pinned upstream commit.
+  Without it the app resolves nesting itself and everything still works — leave
+  `ldap.nestedGroupsServerSide` at `false`. With it, set that to `true` and
+  configure:
+
+  ```
+  overlay         nestgroup
+  nestgroup-base  ou=groups,<base>
+  nestgroup-flags member-filter memberof-filter memberof-values
+  ```
+
+  Flags are **space-separated**; the comma form the man page's `{a, b, c}`
+  notation suggests is rejected. `member-values` is deliberately omitted — it
+  expands the `member` attribute when reading a group, which destroys the
+  distinction between "listed here" and "reachable through a nested group", and
+  the raw values are then unrecoverable. Transitive answers come from the filter
+  flags and from `GET /api/group/:group/effective`.
+
+  One more consequence of building from master: it ships **LMDB 1.0.0**, whose
+  on-disk format is mutually unreadable with the 0.9.x in 2.6.x
+  (`MDB_INVALID: File is not an LMDB file`). Moving a directory between the two
+  is a `slapcat` → `slapadd` reload, not a restart.
+- **Custom schema:** the `theta42Person` auxiliary objectClass with
+  `dateOfBirth` — see `ops/ldap-setup.sh` for the LDIF.
+- **Directory tree:** `ou=people`, `ou=groups`, `ou=policies` under the base DN,
+  a default `pwdPolicy` at `cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,<base>`.
+- **Required groups:** `app_sso_admin`, `app_sso_invite`, `app_sso_oauth_admin`,
+  and `app_super_admin` (the cross-app super-admin group; the bundled entrypoint
+  also nests it into the first three).
+
+`ops/ldap-setup.sh -p <admin-password>` configures all of the above
+idempotently against a running slapd (auto-detects the database holding your
+base DN, and verifies `pwdAccountLockedTime` is live — the attribute the app's
+active/inactive toggle depends on).
+
+## Backups and restore
+
+`ops/backup.sh` automates this (LDAP + Redis + `./config/`, with retention)
+— see the *Backups and restore* section of
+`DEPLOYMENT.md`. The manual LDAP-only steps below are what it does under the
+hood, useful if you want just the directory without Redis/config.
+
+**Backup** (while slapd is running):
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec sso-manager slapcat -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf \
+  -b "dc=yourdomain,dc=com" > ldap-backup-$(date +%F).ldif
+```
+
+Store the `.ldif` off the host — it contains every user's password hash.
+
+**Restore** into a stopped directory. The SSO image uses a static `slapd.conf`
+(slapd starts with `-f`, not cn=config `-F`), so restore uses `slapadd -f`:
+
+```bash
+docker compose stop sso-manager
+docker compose run --rm --no-deps --entrypoint sh sso-manager -c \
+  'rm -f /var/lib/ldap/* && slapadd -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -l /dev/stdin' \
+  < ldap-backup-<date>.ldif
+docker compose start sso-manager
+```
+
+Verify: `docker compose exec sso-manager ldapsearch -x -b "dc=yourdomain,dc=com"`.
+
+Redis state (OAuth clients, tokens) and `./config/` secrets are backed up
+separately — see the *Backups and restore* section of `DEPLOYMENT.md` for the
+full (LDAP + Redis + secrets) runbook.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### `503 OpenLDAP ppolicy overlay is not configured`
+
+The ppolicy overlay isn't attached to the database holding your users, so the
+active/inactive toggle can't set `pwdAccountLockedTime`:
+
+```bash
+sudo ./ops/ldap-setup.sh -p 'admin-password' -b dc=yourdomain,dc=com
+```
+
+### LDAP connection refused
+
+```bash
+docker compose exec sso-manager sh -c 'ldapsearch -x -H ldap://localhost:389 -b "" -s base'
+systemctl status slapd   # bare metal
+```

+description: SSO Manager's OpenID Connect / OAuth 2.0 provider — discovery document, client registration, and token endpoints.
+---
+
+# OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect
+
+[← Back to Home](index.html)
+
+> Looking for a plainer explanation of clients/scopes/redirect URIs instead
+> of endpoint-level detail? See
+> [Connecting Apps (Single Sign-On)](concepts-oauth-apps.html).
+
+SSO Manager is an **OpenID Connect / OAuth 2.0 provider**: it issues its own
+access, refresh, and ID tokens that your apps can consume to authenticate
+users and authorize API calls. It also runs a full OpenLDAP directory, so it
+can be both your SSO and your user directory at once.
+
+## Discovery
+
+The provider publishes a standards-compliant discovery document:
+
+```
+GET https://<sso-host>/.well-known/openid-configuration
+```
+
+It advertises the `issuer`, `authorization_endpoint`, `token_endpoint`,
+`userinfo_endpoint`, `end_session_endpoint`, supported scopes, and token
+lifetimes. OIDC clients (e.g. the theta42/proxy) can read their endpoint URLs
+from here rather than configuring each one.
+
+The `issuer` advertised is `conf.oauth.issuer` — set it to the **browser-facing**
+HTTPS URL the SSO is served at (e.g. `https://sso.example.com`), either in
+`conf/secrets.js` or via `app_oauth__issuer` / `OAUTH_ISSUER`.
+
+## OAuth clients
+
+An OAuth client represents an app that authenticates against the SSO. Each has:
+
+- `client_id` (UUID) + `client_secret` (bcrypt-hashed; the **raw secret is
+  shown once** when the client is created or rotated — save it immediately).
+- `name`, `description`, `created_by` (the admin uid that created it).
+- `redirect_uris` — allowed callback URLs. Each entry matches exactly, or may
+  use `*` (one hostname label) / `**` (any number of labels) as a wildcard —
+  e.g. `https://*.example.com/__proxy_auth/callback` covers every host
+  theta42/proxy fronts under `example.com`, so you don't have to register
+  each proxied host's callback individually.
+- `scopes` — requested scopes (default `openid profile email groups`).
+- `allowed_groups` — restrict the client to members of specific SSO groups
+  (empty = any valid user).
+- `token_lifetime` — `access_token` / `refresh_token` lifetimes (seconds).
+
+### Managing clients
+
+Clients are managed directly from the **Directory** tab in the web UI. They are modeled as resources of `kind: oauth` and must belong to a parent Service.
+
+| Action | How to do it |
+|--------|--------------|
+| **Create** | Click the green **+** on a parent Service to add a child resource. Choose **OAuth Integration**. The raw `client_secret` is shown once upon creation. |
+| **Edit** | Click the edit pencil on the OAuth resource in the Directory list or tree. You can update redirect URIs, scopes, allowed groups, and token TTLs. |
+| **Delete** | Click the trash can on the OAuth resource in the Directory list. |
+| **Rotate Secret** | Open the edit modal for the OAuth resource and click **Rotate Client Secret**. The new raw secret is shown once. |
+
+> All client-management actions use the standard Directory API (`/api/directory-admin/resources`) and are gated by the `app_sso_directory_admin` group.
+
+<a href="images/oauth-clients.png" target="_blank"><img src="images/oauth-clients.png" alt="Editing an OAuth client resource" width="80%"></a>
+
+## Scopes
+
+| Scope | Claims / access |
+|-------|-----------------|
+| `openid` | OIDC ID token + discovery |
+| `profile` | `preferred_username`, display name, etc. |
+| `email` | the user's `mail` |
+| `groups` | the user's group memberships (the `groups` claim) |
+
+The `groups` claim is what relying parties (e.g. the proxy's
+`app_auth__adminGroups`) use to map group membership to roles.
+
+## Token lifetimes
+
+Defaults (overridable per-client via `token_lifetime`, or globally via
+`app_oauth__token_lifetime__access_token` /
+`app_oauth__token_lifetime__refresh_token`):
+
+- access token: 3600s (1 hour)
+- refresh token: 2592000s (30 days)
+
+## Admin gating
+
+SSO admin actions are gated by LDAP group membership (checked via the group's
+`member` list, not `memberOf` on the user):
+
+- `app_sso_admin` — full admin (users, groups, settings).
+- `app_sso_oauth_admin` — OAuth client management.
+- `app_sso_invite` — invitation management.
+
+The bootstrap in [theta-env](https://github.com/theta42/theta-env) creates your
+first admin and adds them to `app_sso_admin` + `app_sso_oauth_admin`
+automatically.
+
+## JWT signing
+
+Tokens are signed with `conf.oauth.jwtSecret` (`app_oauth__jwtSecret` /
+`JWT_SECRET`). **Persist this secret** — if it changes, every issued token
+stops validating. The all-in-one Docker image auto-generates one if none is set,
+but that generated value does not survive container recreation unless you
+persist it (set `JWT_SECRET` in your `.env`).

+
+# Geo-Location Scaling (Replication)
+
+SSO Manager is built to be a self-contained identity provider, but if you have multiple physical sites, you may want a local copy of the directory at each site to ensure low latency and high availability.
+
+## Why and when to use this?
+- **High Availability (HA)**: If your primary site goes completely offline, your other sites can still authenticate users locally without depending on a WAN link.
+- **Low Latency**: Applications at a remote site can bind directly to their local LDAP server (`localhost` or LAN IP) instead of traversing the internet to query the primary site, making logins blazing fast.
+- **Independent Failure Domains**: By replicating only the LDAP directory (the source of truth) and keeping session state (Redis) independent, you prevent complex "split-brain" scenarios in the web UI. A failure at Site A won't bring down Site B.
+
+By default, the `sso-manager` Docker container runs a single, independent OpenLDAP instance. However, you can enable **N-Way Multi-Master Replication** via environment variables.
+
+## How it works
+
+In an N-Way Multi-Master setup, every site runs a fully active OpenLDAP server (`slapd`).
+- **Reads and Writes anywhere**: A user can change their password or update their profile at Site A, Site B, or Site C.
+- **Conflict Resolution**: OpenLDAP's `syncrepl` engine uses Context Sequence Numbers (CSN) to track changes. If Site A goes offline and a user changes their password at Site B, Site A will automatically pull the newest changes the moment it rejoins the cluster.
+- **Independent Redis**: Session data, API Tokens, and OAuth Clients are stored in Redis. By design, Redis is NOT replicated in this geographic setup. This ensures that a failure at Site A never causes Site B's Redis to become read-only, which would break the web UI at Site B. OAuth clients must be configured per-site.
+
+## Configuration
+
+To enable replication, you must pass two environment variables to the `sso-manager` container:
+
+1. `LDAP_SERVER_ID`: A unique integer for this node (e.g., `1`, `2`, `3`). This MUST be unique across the cluster.
+2. `LDAP_REPLICATION_HOSTS`: A space-separated list of the LDAP URLs of all **other** nodes in the cluster.
+
+### Example using `theta-env` / Docker Compose
+
+**Site 1 (`setup.env` or `docker-compose.yml`)**
+```env
+LDAP_SERVER_ID=1
+LDAP_REPLICATION_HOSTS="ldaps://sso.site2.com:636 ldaps://sso.site3.com:636"
+```
+
+**Site 2 (`setup.env` or `docker-compose.yml`)**
+```env
+LDAP_SERVER_ID=2
+LDAP_REPLICATION_HOSTS="ldaps://sso.site1.com:636 ldaps://sso.site3.com:636"
+```
+
+**Site 3 (`setup.env` or `docker-compose.yml`)**
+```env
+LDAP_SERVER_ID=3
+LDAP_REPLICATION_HOSTS="ldaps://sso.site1.com:636 ldaps://sso.site2.com:636"
+```
+
+Once configured, the container's entrypoint will automatically load the `syncprov` module, enable `mirrormode`, and generate the necessary `syncrepl` blocks in `/etc/openldap/slapd.conf`.
+
+## User Locations
+
+When creating or editing a user, you can specify their **Location (Site)**. This maps directly to the standard LDAP `l` (localityName) attribute, allowing you to track which physical site a user belongs to natively within the directory.

+# Secrets Vault
+
+SSO Manager integrates natively with **OpenBao** (a Vault fork) to securely manage and store sensitive data, configuration, and API keys.
+
+The Vault proxy endpoint is exposed directly through SSO Manager at `/api/vault/v1/`, which safely authenticates and authorizes requests before forwarding them to the internal OpenBao container.
+
+## Architecture
+
+The secrets engine uses a persistent file backend (`/var/lib/docker/volumes/theta-env_openbao-data/_data`) to ensure high availability and durability.
+
+When the environment is initialized via `setup.sh`, OpenBao is automatically unsealed and seeded with a root token that the application uses for authentication. The root token is kept securely inside the container environment.
+
+## Accessing the Vault
+
+The SSO Manager Vault can be accessed in two ways:
+
+1. **Via the SSO Manager UI**: Go to the **Admin Configuration** page (`/conf`) to edit the application's configuration secrets directly. SMTP and OAuth settings are edited through structured form fields (not a raw JSON blob) and saved to OpenBao at `secret/sso-manager/conf` at runtime, taking effect immediately. Secret fields — the SMTP password and the OAuth JWT secret — are returned masked (`********`); leave the field unchanged (or blank) to keep the stored value, or enter a new value to replace it.
+2. **Via the REST API**: Send requests to `/api/vault/v1/...` with your SSO Manager session or API Token.
+
+### API Example
+
+To read secrets from the default key-value store, issue a `GET` request to:
+`/api/vault/v1/secret/data/sso-manager/conf`
+
+Only administrators with `app_sso_admin` or `admin` permissions can query the vault endpoints.
+
+## Namespaces and Paths
+
+Currently, secrets are maintained at `/v1/secret/data/sso-manager/conf` using the `kv-v2` backend. When configurations are edited via the admin UI, SSO Manager performs a deep-merge so that partial updates don't overwrite unrelated keys (such as SMTP vs OAuth configurations).
+
+## Plugin Integration
+
+Plugin instances store their per-instance secrets in OpenBao at
+`secret/plugins/<instance-id>/conf` (configured, loaded/unloaded, and run from
+the **Plugins** page — see [Plugins](plugins.html)). The plugin process runs
+in-process, so the SSO Manager reads/writes those secrets server-side through
+the `sso-broker` token; the admin UI only ever sees masked values, and external
+apps can retrieve API tokens via the `/api/vault` proxy to keep permissions
+consistently enforced instead of hardcoding them.

-the `stack`/`bootstrap` keys (the app ignores the ones it doesn't use). Pass
-**no `app_*` env** — env beats the secrets file, so `app_*` would silently
-override your file.

-so `@simpleworkjs/conf` reads it. Fill in `oidc` (your SSO's endpoints +
-`clientId`/`clientSecret`/`redirectUri`), `ldap` (bind creds + search base), and
-`auth` (admin groups/users). Pass **no `app_*` env** — env beats the secrets

-### The `auth.adminUsers` anti-lockout account
-
-Both `setup.sh` and `config.example/proxy-secrets.js.example` write
-`auth.adminUsers: ['proxyadmin2']` into `proxy-secrets.js`. This is a
-**local, config-driven admin bypass** — the proxy grants full admin rights to
-any logged-in OIDC user whose username (the `preferred_username` claim from
-the SSO) matches an entry in `auth.adminUsers`, regardless of their LDAP group
-membership (see `proxy/nodejs/utils/roles.js`, `resolveEffective()`). It exists
-so an operator can't lock themselves out of the proxy mgmt UI if the SSO's
-`app_sso_admin` group is ever misconfigured, deleted, or otherwise broken.
-
-It is **not** derived from any `setup.env` value, and it does **not** create a
-user by itself — the name is only a username match. To actually use the
-bypass, create a user with uid `proxyadmin2` in the SSO (it does not need to
-be in `app_sso_admin` or any other group) and log in through the proxy as that
-user.
-
-To change or disable it, edit `auth.adminUsers` directly in
-`./config/proxy-secrets.js` after the first `./setup.sh` run (re-running
-`setup.sh` will not overwrite an existing `proxy-secrets.js`):
-
-- **Rename** it to a less guessable username: `adminUsers: ['your-break-glass-uid']`.
-- **Add more** anti-lockout accounts: `adminUsers: ['proxyadmin2', 'another-admin']`.
-- **Disable** it entirely: `adminUsers: []` (global admin then comes only from
-  `auth.adminGroups` membership — make sure at least one real admin group is
-  reachable before doing this).

-
-## Mixing and matching
-
-theta-env isn't required to use the two together — the four wiring steps are
-documented in both projects' deployment guides:
-
-1. One Docker network (or reachable hostnames) so the proxy can reach the SSO
-   internally for token/userinfo + LDAPS.
-2. Set the SSO's `oauth.issuer` (in its `secrets.js`) to the browser-facing HTTPS
-   URL the proxy serves the SSO at.
-3. Register the proxy as an OIDC client in the SSO, with `redirectUri` matching
-   the proxy's callback; put the resulting `clientId`/`clientSecret` in the
-   proxy's `secrets.js`.
-4. Point the proxy's `ldap.url` at the SSO's LDAPS + create a dedicated
-   `cn=ldapclient` service account; set the same password as `bindPassword`.
-
-theta-env just automates those four steps with `./setup.sh`. If you prefer to
-do them by hand (or want the two on separate hosts), follow the standalone
-guides above.
