A deployment's ErrorDocument-covered downtime window looked dead: Apache's
default 502/503/504 error page, or a hung request, while instance-update
briefly restarts the systemd unit. init --systemd now also writes a static
werkator-maintenance.html next to the generated .htaccess, and the .htaccess
maps a refused connection straight to it — served by Apache alone, no
change needed to Werkator itself since it is exactly the process that is
down.

The system page showed the disk of the host volume, not the budget the
instance can actually fill — on a Hostsharing Managed Webspace that is a
group quota, tighter than the volume by an order of magnitude, so the
warn/critical highlighting could never fire before a build failed with
"Disk quota exceeded".
DiskQuota parses `quota -u -g --no-wrap --raw-grace` and picks the
tightest of the user quota, the group quota, and the volume itself;
SystemMetricsCollector reports whichever binds, resets the disk
min/max/avg when the binding source changes, and the system page names
the source in its info line. A host without a binding quota (Docker
hosts, developer machines) renders exactly as before.

* refactor: werkdock/ verlässt dieses Repository
Die neun Commits unterhalb von werkdock/ sind per `git subtree split`
historieerhaltend nach https://git.javagil.de/mi/werkdock gehoben; hier
bleibt nichts davon zurück.
Mit dem Verzeichnis geht die Build-Definition `werkdock`: Sie beschrieb ein
Go-Modul, das der Kotlin-Build um sie herum nicht berühren kann — jeder
Werkator-Branch baute es dennoch als `<branch>@werkdock` mit. Drüben ist
sie die einzige und heißt `default`.
Die Kopplung bleibt, wie Sitzung C sie gemacht hat: Werkator ruft das
`werkdock`-Binary über PATH (`bwrap.werkdock`, weiterhin gepinnt), so wie
es `git` ruft.

* refactor(remote): das werkdock-Binary kommt aus einem eigenen Checkout
Bisher baute das Skript es aus dem Unterverzeichnis. Jetzt nennt
WERKDOCK_REPO den Checkout (Vorgabe: ein Geschwister dieses Repositories —
die übliche Ablage, wenn man an beidem arbeitet), WERKDOCK_BINARY das
gebaute Binary darin; beides ist wie jeder Transportwert aus der Umgebung
übersteuerbar.
Fehlt der Checkout, nennt die Meldung die Klon-URL, statt bloß „file not
found" zu sagen: Das Skript kann die Lage nicht mehr selbst beheben, also
sagt es, was sie beheben würde.

* docs: Sitzung E — Werkdock hat ein eigenes Repository
Plan-Schritt 21 bekommt die Sitzung, die die Herauslösung beschreibt, samt
Abnahmekriterium; Plan-Index und Architektur-Skill sagen nicht mehr, sie
stehe noch bevor, und der Deployment-Leitfaden verlinkt das Repository
statt eines Verzeichnisses, das es hier nicht mehr gibt.
Dazu das PR-Dokument nach Hausregel (docs/prs/README.md).

* fix(remote): repo-add wendet das Instanz-Fragment an
`repo-add` rief `werkator init` ohne `--apply`, `repo-init` dagegen mit.
Folge: Ein so aufgenommenes Repository bekam die Sandbox-Politik nicht —
`bwrap.rootfs` und `bwrap.werkdock` fehlten, und der erste Build lief auf
dem nackten Host statt in der Sandbox. Gefunden beim Aufnehmen von
Werkdock: `gofmt: command not found`, weil die Go-Toolchain nur im
Sandbox-Image liegt.

* fix(remote): repo-add erkennt einen ~/-Registry-Eintrag, und der Kommentar sagt die Wahrheit
Die Registry-Prüfung suchte nur den absoluten Pfad und meldete deshalb
„not registered yet“, obwohl der Eintrag als `path: ~/werkdock` dasteht —
eine Einladung, ihn ein zweites Mal einzutragen. Gegriffen wird jetzt
lokal, damit beide Schreibweisen ohne zweite Schicht Remote-Quoting
treffbar sind.
Dazu der Kommentar über dem Laden der Env-Datei: Er behauptete, die
ausdrückliche Umgebung gewinne. `set -a; source` weist unbedingt zu — die
Datei gewinnt. Beim Nachziehen des Werkdock-Fragments hat mich genau das
eine Runde gekostet.

`tools/remote` konnte genau ein beobachtetes Repository einrichten
(`repo-init`, fest auf $WERKATOR_PATH/werkator). Für eine Instanz, die eine
Registry bedient (ADR 0009), fehlte der Weg, ein zweites hinzuzunehmen —
und das braucht der Rollout unabhängig davon, welche Repositories es am Ende
sind.
`repo-add <url> [name]` klont daneben, führt `init` darin aus und PRÜFT, ob
die Registry den Pfad schon nennt — geschrieben wird sie nicht. `~/.werkator.yml`
ist die Datei der Instanz: Port, globale Nebenläufigkeit, womöglich geteilte
Zugangsdaten. Ein Skript, das sie in place umschreibt, verändert die
Konfiguration des Betreibers hinter dessen Rücken. Klonen und Initialisieren
ist mechanisch, Registrieren ist eine Entscheidung — also druckt es den
Eintrag und sagt, dass die Registry beim Start gelesen wird.
Der Name muss ein Pfadsegment sein: Er wird das Routen-Segment /repos/<name>.
docs/deployment.md verweist im Registry-Abschnitt darauf.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Der aus Sitzung C nach E übertragene Doku-Punkt: docs/deployment.md
beschreibt die Registry jetzt betrieblich — klonen, vorbereiten, in
~/.werkator.yml eintragen, neu starten. Dazu die Regeln, die beim Eintragen
weh tun, wenn man sie nicht kennt: Der Name ist Routen-Segment und
Umschalter-Eintrag und muss eindeutig sein (ein Doppel bricht den Start ab,
ebenso ein Eintrag, der kein git-Repository ist), eine unlesbare Konfiguration
überspringt nur ihr Repository, geteilte Zugangsdaten können einmal im
defaults-Block liegen, und die Unit behält ihren Namen — sie gehört der
Instanz, nicht einem Repository.
Dazu, was die Adressen tun: mit einem Repository bleibt jede URL, wie sie
war; mit mehreren tragen Seiten und API das Repository, und die unscoped
Pfade meinen weiterhin das bediente.

The wrapper's config writing is gone: --env-file FILE selects the
target instance (default .env; named like docker's flag — --env means a
single variable there), the init fragment named by WERKATOR_INIT_CONFIG
is uploaded and installed remotely via 'werkator init --apply', and
instance-start places the .htaccess that init now generates. The
heredoc/sed machine-config writing is deleted; control-token delegates
to the werkator CLI; check-prerequisites uploads werkdock and runs its
doctor — tools/werkator-build-prerequisites.sh retires. The idle-check
and port-forward port lookups read the effective config via
config:print, so a port living in the applied fragment is found too.
Verified live against mih34 with the .env.mih34 + .env.mih34.yml pair
(gitignored via the new /.env.* rule): update, doctor PASS 6/6,
repo-init applying the fragment as the new layer, instance-start
placing the generated proxy and restarting the unit, control-token.

tools/remote reworked to role-named commands (the builder-vs-built
tangle noted 2026-09-01): instance-install/instance-update/
instance-start manage the installed Werkator + werkdock, repo-init the
watched repository. The self-build is retired — no repo clone for
building, no GitHub-key step; the instance installs from locally built
artifacts (ADR 0006), the watched repo clones anonymously via https.
instance-update refuses to swap the runtime under a running build
(FORCE=1 overrides) and keeps the previous runtime as the rollback
asset. repo-init is idempotent: checksum-skipped rootfs upload, and the
machine-config guard is fixed — its indentation mismatch (grep for two
spaces, block written with four) appended the bwrap block on every run,
the source of the nine duplicates found on mih34. The retired
install/build/start commands fail loudly naming their successors.
docs/deployment.md gains the Hostsharing Managed Webspace as the third
deployment variant, written from the live-verified setup: both new
commands ran against mih34 (full update cycle; fully skipping re-init).

* renaming from gitTally to Werkator
* Rename GitTally to Werkator
`gitTally` is the name of another product in the git space, so the
rename is a precaution; nothing about what the build system does changes.
The name follows one rule: `Werkator` where it is prose, capitalized
where it is a Kotlin type and its file, lowercase everywhere a machine
reads it — the command, packages, paths, configuration keys and values,
the Gitea check context. Environment variables keep their convention and
are uppercase throughout.
Every configuration file is still found under its pre-rename name
(`ConfigFiles`): `.gittally.yml` at the repository root, in a build
worktree and as committed on a branch, `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` for
the machine layer. The current name wins where both exist, and the old
file is then ignored rather than merged — two files side by side are a
half-done rename, not a layering. Without the fallback an installation
that updated without renaming would not fail: a configuration that is
not found leaves every setting at its default, so it would come up
looking healthy while having forgotten its credentials and its builds.
`docs/werkator-migrationsplan.md` lists what the fallback does not
cover and has to be moved by hand — above all the state directory
`.git/werkator/`, which holds the build history, the control token and
the worktrees, and has no fallback of its own.
`docs/migration-from-legacy.md` is deleted with this: it mapped the
legacy script's environment variables, and every host it addressed has
long since moved to the YAML configuration.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Move the pre-rename state directory at the first start
The configuration is found under either name, the state is not: build
history, control token, auto-build slots and worktrees live at one fixed
path. An installation that updates without moving `.git/gittally` would
not fail — it would come up with an empty history and a fresh control
token, quietly. So the first start moves it instead of the release notes
asking for it.
Only when the old directory exists and the new one does not. Where both
exist nothing is touched and a warning names the leftover: which of the
two is the live state is not something to guess. A failed move is an
error in the log, never an abort — a CI must not hang on it.
The worktrees are dropped rather than moved, since they point at their
old path in both directions; `GitWorktreeWorkspaces` prunes the stale
admin entry and recreates each on its branch's next build. A generated
systemd unit moves with the directory and leaves its symlink dangling,
which is warned about — the running service is unaffected, the next
start is not.
Runs from `CliRunner`, before any command resolves a path under the
directory, and so before the second context of `server` exists.

* Document PR#1: the rename to Werkator
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Drop the legacy env-to-YAML conversion from the setup tool
The old bash script configured itself through `GITTALLY_*` environment
variables. The blanket rename rewrote those literals, so the converter
was looking for `WERKATOR_*` — a spelling no host has ever written. Fed
a real legacy file it would have found nothing and written an almost
empty configuration, without an error, which is the same silent failure
this rename is otherwise careful to avoid.
The conversion has served its purpose with the vm2176 to vm4006
migration, so it goes instead of being repaired. What remains is the
setup of a new instance: the preconditions, the credential prompt, and
the machine configuration written mode 600 — now carrying the host's
public URL as well, since that is host-specific too. Everything the
repository builds comes from `init` and its templates.
It also stops emitting a legacy `branches:` section, which step 18 is
about to reject outright.
`docs/plan/00-legacy-analysis.md` and `13-nginx-tls.md` get the real
`GITTALLY_*` spelling back: they record what the old script read.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Describe this repository's build with a build definition
Its own `.werkator.yml` still used the deprecated `branches` section
with an `autoBuild` schedule that was switched off. That section is read
only while nothing defines a build at all, and step 18 rejects it by
name — so this repository would have blocked the precondition of that
step, which asks that no configuration still in play carries it.
Nothing about the build changes: `builds.default` with `trigger.onPush`
is a build of every new commit on every branch, which is what the branch
section said. `config:print --full` resolves the definition completely
and logs no deprecation warning any more.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Stop documenting the pre-rename fallback for users
Exactly one repository is configured with the old names, and it is
migrated by hand in the same move as this release. The fallback is
therefore a transition of days, not a feature anyone reading the release
notes or the configuration reference has to plan around.
Removed from `releases.html` and `docs/configuration.md`. The mechanism
itself is unchanged and stays described where it is worked on: in
`ConfigFiles`, in `StateDirMigration`, and in the migration plan.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Bring the PR-doc to its final state
The `statusContext` question is answered and marked as decided rather
than left standing: it is the one value a human reads as a label, and it
stays lowercase because Gitea matches it and the client reads it back,
which makes it a value.
Also records that the pre-rename fallback is deliberately absent from
the release notes and the configuration reference.

* Release v1.0.0: Werkator
The release after 0.9.21 is 1.0.0, because a product that changes its
name is better off counting from one under it. The release note says as
much, so the jump is not read as a claim about maturity — plan steps 14,
17 and 18 are still open.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Correct the PR-doc about the version
It claimed the PR carries no version bump, which the release commit made
untrue, and records why the number is 1.0.0 instead of 0.9.22.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Point the legacy references at the history
`legacy/gitTally` was removed from the tree with the rename, but the
README still described it as a reference kept in the repository, and the
plan told an executing session to read parts of it — including step 14,
which is open.
The README section is gone; `docs/plan/README.md`, step 14 and the
legacy analysis now say where the script actually is
(`git show 7f55068^:legacy/gitTally`). Executed steps and ADR 0004 keep
their wording: they record what was true when they ran.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Retarget the links in the historic PR-docs
The package rename moved every file the older PR-docs link to, leaving
60 dead links. Only the link targets are rewritten, never the visible
text and never a statement: those documents record what was true when
they were written, GitTally in the prose included. A snapshot may be
outdated; it should still be navigable.

* Add the v1.0.0 deployment procedure for vm4006
Measured, not estimated: the state directory is 878 MB, of which 878 MB
are the nine build worktrees. What cannot be recreated is 84 KB, so the
snapshot before an in-place switch is instant and the rollback is one
sequence of moves.
Records the three expected non-failures — a cold Gradle volume, one
image rebuild, containers left under the old label — and that
`gitea.statusContext` needs no attention because it comes from the
watched repository's committed configuration.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Rename the machine configuration along with its directory
Found by the deployment to vm4006: the move renames the directory and
leaves the file inside it alone, so the machine configuration ended up at
`.git/werkator/.gittally.yml` — a pair of names the lookup did not
expect, because it pairs directory and file name. The instance resolved
empty credentials, no public URL and none of the host's build
definitions, and said nothing about it. That is the exact failure this
change exists to prevent, produced by the change itself.
`StateDirMigration` now renames the configuration with the directory,
unless one under the current name is already there. `ConfigFiles` carries
`.git/werkator/.gittally.yml` as a third candidate as well, for a
directory somebody moved by hand, where the migration never runs and so
can rename nothing.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Let init see a configuration under its previous name
`init --systemd` runs `init`, and its "already exists" check knew only
the current name. On the one repository still carrying `.gittally.yml`
it therefore wrote a fresh template `.werkator.yml` beside it — and
since the current name wins, that repository would have built the
template's `./gradlew test` instead of what its own configuration says.
Found on vm4006, where the file was created in the watched working tree
and removed again by hand.
Both checks now ask `ConfigFiles`, so init decides existence by the same
rule the loader uses to read.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Record the v1.0.0 deployment to vm4006
Deployed from the branch as the final test of PR#1, and it did what a
final test is for: it found two silent-failure defects before the
service was started, both fixed and redeployed in the same window.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Drop the control token left under the old localStorage key
The key is named after the product, so the rename left every browser
with a token under `gittally.controlToken`, which nothing reads any more
and which "forget token" can no longer reach. It is a write-scope token
in a browser store, not a password, but a secret nobody owns is worth
one line to remove.
Removed on load. The token on the server is unchanged, so re-entering it
once per browser is all the rename costs.

deployment.md only said "replace the jar and restart", which left out the
runtime-bundle case entirely — including the trap that the tarball
unpacks to a `gittally/` directory and must not be extracted over ~/opt.

note that a restart is safe because in-flight builds are re-enqueued.

The watched projects (GitTally and hs.hsadmin.ng) are open source, keep
no secrets in the repository and build against test data, so credentials
appearing in a log are fixtures. The builds neither deploy nor sign; the
only planned artifact is a jar. Public logs are also the point: a red
build has to be diagnosable from the link in the Gitea status without a
login.
Recorded as a property of the watched project rather than of GitTally —
deployment.md now says that an installation whose builds touch real
credentials has to stay off the public internet, since GitTally offers no
per-endpoint gating.

Closes TODO 2 of the security audit in docs/prs/2026-07-08-PR#000.
Every rendered page carried the live control token in a meta tag so that
gittally.js could send it, but no GET is authenticated — so `curl … |
grep gittally-control-token` handed the token to anyone, and read access
was effectively write access.
Reading stays fully public, which is a requirement rather than an
oversight: build states, logs and artifacts must be linkable from Gitea,
chats or tickets without a login. Only the distribution of the token
changed. The meta tag is gone; gittally.js keeps the token in
localStorage and asks for it once per browser, so knowing it requires
shell access to `.git/gittally/control-token` on the host. A token the
server rejects is dropped and asked for once more, so a rotated secret is
not a dead end. As a request header it stays inherently CSRF-safe.
The five branches of that flow (first use, reuse, stale token, cancelled
prompt, wrong token twice) were exercised against the real source with a
throwaway node harness; the UI test now asserts the token does not appear
in the rendered page. `docs/deployment.md` gained a "Control Token"
section on the public-read/token-protected-write split.

Finishes the small items of the security audit in
docs/prs/2026-07-08-PR#000: TODO 3, 4 and 7.
The three mutating endpoints of BuildsApiController no longer accept the
control token as a `token` query parameter — only the X-GitTally-Token
header, which the bundled UI has always used. URLs end up in access logs,
proxy logs, browser history and Referer headers, and the token never
expires, so a historical log capture would yield a valid credential.
`config:print` masks git.token as `***` on both the raw and the --full
path and names the new --show-secrets flag in a leading YAML comment, so
the output stays parseable when piped. The setup script points at
--show-secrets where it used to steer the operator to the plain token.
`server.bindAddress` now defaults to 127.0.0.1: neither the UI nor the
API authenticates read access, so reaching GitTally should require the
host's reverse proxy. Existing .gittally.yml files keep their explicit
value; the managed nginx container needs `0.0.0.0` set deliberately,
which is noted in the release notes, docs/configuration.md and
docs/deployment.md.
Released as v0.9.9, which also carries the previous two commits.

Investigating six near-simultaneous builds on vm4006 showed no duplicate
enqueue: they were six distinct recently-active origin branches, each built
once by the documented new-origin-branch rule (in a fresh clone every origin
branch counts as new). The watcher already guards against duplicates per
branch and per commit, with test coverage; only the first-start behavior was
undocumented.

./gradlew runtimeBundle packs a jlink-trimmed JRE, gittally.jar, and a

(Spring AOT evaluates bean conditions at build time, which cannot represent
the dual-context CLI/server wiring) and over a containerized runtime — see
