fix: LDAP enrollment uses localhost (not the public domain); align SSH access groups; roll up ldap-client v1.24.0 (v1.38.0)

- setup.sh: ldap_host defaults to localhost (the public sso.<domain> can't reach
  the 389/636 LDAP ports through NAT); overridable via CFG_LDAPS_HOST
- ldap.vars access groups + ldap-client sssd filter now reference the SSO group
  model (site_<loc>_hosts_access, site_<loc>_host_<host>_access, god_admin)
- GROUPS.md §5/§8 updated to the corrected naming
- gitlink: ldap-client ebaac18 (v1.24.0)

+## [v1.38.0] - 2026-08-04
+
+### Fixed
+- **LDAP enrollment no longer reaches for the public domain** — `setup.sh` generated `ldap.vars` with `ldap_host` defaulting to the public SSO host (`sso.<domain>`), which the NAT/firewall blocks on the LDAP ports (389/636). It now defaults to `localhost` (the LDAP server is co-located on the stack host; `ldap_tls_reqcert=never` makes this safe), overridable with `CFG_LDAPS_HOST` for an internal hostname/IP.
+- **SSH access groups match the SSO group model** (ldap-client v1.24.0) — the generated `sssd.conf` access filter and `ldap-ssh-key.sh` referenced the legacy names (`<location>_access`, `app_super_admin`); they now use `site_<location>_hosts_access` (all-hosts aggregate), `site_<location>_host_<hostname>_access`, and `god_admin`. GROUPS.md §8's example updated to match.
+
+## [v1.37.0] - 2026-08-04
+
+### Changed
+- **Group naming corrected to match docs/GROUPS.md** — per-resource groups are `{site}_{kind}_{name}_{level}` (kind always present; a host `host_theta-env` → `site_local_host_theta-env_access`, a service → `site_local_app_sso-manager_access`). The spec's §3 text was updated to state this explicitly.
+- **Roll up sso v1.27.0** — group names match the docs, a site carries only god + site-wide groups, duplicate group links removed, `/api/agent/*` no longer 404s, shared-secrets POST/GET fixed, Vault Apps tab lists minted tokens, discovery promote + plugin run logs fixed. See the [sso changelog](https://github.com/theta42/sso-manager-node/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).

-- **The `S` site segment is the site resource's slug verbatim.** In the SSO
-  Directory, site/host resource slugs carry a kind prefix (`site_local`,
-  `host_theta-env`); the group builders keep them verbatim rather than
-  re-slugifying (which would corrupt the delimiter: `site_local` → `site-local`)
-  or inserting a separate kind segment. So a host resource `host_theta-env` under
-  site `site_local` yields `site_local_host_theta-env_access` (the `host_` is part
-  of the resource slug), and the site's own admin group is `site_local_super_admin`.
-  Services are stored without a prefix, giving `site_local_sso-manager_access`.
-  The kind (`host`/`app`) is used only to pick the **aggregate** the resource's

+- **Per-resource groups are `{S}_{kind}_{name}_{level}`.** `kind` is `host` or

+  `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_*`.
