55 http monitors added under "Cloud Systems" (blue/green: canary first,
verified green); 9 root-level strays re-homed into founder's groups
(root now zero). New tools: inventory (read-only dump), cloudron-sync
(idempotent diff/add from committed app list), regroup (lib-based moves;
raw editMonitor times out on this build). fleet-sync now requires
--group-id so it can never place monitors at root again.

Archive the non-ported remainder of the legacy KNELServerBuild repo
under archive/KNELServerBuild/ with its original structure intact,
completing the legacy repo merge for everything except the live
LibreNMS patterns (ported in the previous commit).
Exclusions:
- .git history (superseded; legacy repo remains at its original path)
- ported files (Agents/librenms, Modules/OAM/oam-librenms.sh,
ConfigFiles/SNMP/snmp-sudo.conf)
- vendored KNELShellFramework tree (byte-identical duplicate of the
copy already vendored at vendor/ in this repo)
- SSH authorized-keys files (live access-control material; carrying
them in an archive invites drift — key policy lives elsewhere)
The whole tree is skip-listed in tests/shellcheck.sh (archived legacy
code, not maintained — same standing as vendor/); check-rules.sh
already prunes archive/. Rule 9 (conflict markers) now also excludes
archive/ staged files: preserved-verbatim legacy scripts contain
decorative "====" banners that false-positive as conflict markers
(same archive exclusion precedent as rule 11).
AGENTS.md: note archive/KNELServerBuild and oam/librenms-agent in the
Repository Layout, and fix the stale KNELIAC path to
/home/reachableceo/projects/KNEL/KNELIAC.

Port the live LibreNMS monitoring patterns from the legacy
KNELServerBuild repo into oam/librenms-agent/, joining the existing
OAM tooling (oxidized, unpoller, smokeping, netdisco):
- agent/ — upstream check_mk agent + snmp-extend scripts (dmi, dpkg,
mysql, ntp-client, ntp-server, os-updates, postfix, raspberry, smart,
ss, ups-nut), copied verbatim (md5-verified), never to be edited here
- setup.sh — deploy module ported from ProjectCode/Modules/OAM/
oam-librenms.sh; only the legacy framework bootstrap was replaced
with plain bash (path constants + print_info -> echo)
- snmp-sudo.conf — Debian snmpd sudo rule the extends require
(Debian-snmp NOPASSWD /bin/cat); carried as a file only, sudoers
install is a policy decision per AGENTS.md
Lint gates: extend the existing upstream-skip mechanism for the
verbatim agent scripts (tests/shellcheck.sh + check-rules.sh prune,
same precedent as archive/provisioning/Agents/librenms), and fix the
stale skip path there (provisioning/ moved to archive/provisioning in
6244c1c; the bash extends have been failing the whole-repo shellcheck
gate since).

The ticket gate required the single .crush/active-ticket file, so two
concurrent sessions overwrote each other's ticket mid-work. The gate now
accepts any non-empty .crush/active-ticket* file; each session keeps its
own (e.g. active-ticket-plant, active-ticket-core). Also prune .crush/
session scratch from both shellcheck scanners so one session's throwaway
probe scripts cannot block the other session's commits. Documented in
AGENTS.md Task Tracking.

The full legacy suite mixes repo tests with deployment-target tests
(PAM packages, target resolv.conf, Proxmox repo reachability) that can
only pass on a provisioned server. The workstation gate now runs the
unit suite; validation/security stay invocable for sectestbed runs.

Fill the framework gaps the Makefile already referenced: scripts/test.sh
(wrapper over tests/run-tests.sh, now exercised by the pre-push full
audit) and up.sh/down.sh stubs for this non-compose repo. Extend
kuma-fleet-sync STATIC_GEAR with the fixed network/office devices
(printer, consrv, tsys6/7 OOB, scanners, label printer, r1-tor-top,
DOME) so future runs keep their ICMP monitors in sync; DOME added
paused like the other known-down systems.

Gap-analyzes the tailnet Linux fleet + static network gear (switches,
router, APs, PDU, stor1, Reston VPSes) against Uptime Kuma ping
monitors over the socket.io API, and can create missing monitors with
--add. Websocket transport is forced because the Cloudron proxy drops
engine.io polling pushes. First run closed the last 4 gaps: 84/84.

pfv-bms and tsys-umbrel were renamed in the Tailscale admin console,
so MagicDNS now serves the canonical names. The audit key switches
from the OS-reported hostname to the admin-assigned DNS name, which
retires the alias table. Reston VPS exclusion keyed to its MagicDNS
name (tsys-cloudron). Every in-scope system now passes: VM name,
DNS name, and Tailscale name all agree.

Device-side hostname, /etc/hosts, and Tailscale node renamed from
ultixfield to ultix-field to match the DNS canonical name (convention
match with ultix-streaming/ultix-offstage). Verified unprivileged path

3dscanner has been offline ~7 months; sandbox is a disposable
break-fix VM rolled back via Proxmox snapshots, so a failed SSH

era stlpc uses root, pfvsvrpi is localuser not subodev [#446]
Probed root access on every host where localuser failed: all Proxmox
appliance VMs (PDM/PMG/PBS), stlpc-artroom/garage, pfv-jetson-nano-1,
and ultix-field accept root key auth; pfvsvrpi takes localuser with
passwordless sudo. Audit now models this correctly — 65 of 74 green.

Exclude the Reston prod VPS (tsys-cloudron-new) from all future audits,
mark Home Assistant and Umbrel as by-design no-SSH appliances, and query
Technitium directly (dig @netinfra-01) instead of getent so local
/etc/hosts entries cannot produce false mismatches. Drops aliases made
obsolete by the sectestbed-hfnoc-uisp rename.

Previous sessions used `qm guest exec` to back-door SSH keys into ~30 VMs,
bypassing sshd's audit trail in an ITAR/CMMC environment. Wire the ban deep
so it cannot recur:
- tests/remote.sh: remove the vm-guest mode + qm-guest-exec path entirely
- scripts/check-rules.sh: rule #11 fails on any `qm guest exec` / `vm-guest`
pattern in code (scans .sh/.bash/.py; docs may describe the ban freely)
- AGENTS.md: codify "Access-channel policy: SSH only" as non-negotiable;
add "Questions" rule banning harness question tools (use questions-v1.md)
- tests/vm-validation.sh: drop guest-agent key re-injection; SSH-only
- proxmox/perf/scripts/perf-matrix.sh + deploy-tuned-guests.sh: convert
guest-agent execution to SSH (vmroot) now that VMs have key + sudo
- bootstrap-all.sh: re-target the 8 remaining locked-out systems with
correct users/methods; print a console one-liner for publickey-only Pis
Guest-agent remains installable/checkable for Proxmox state visibility —
never as an execution or key-delivery path.
