94d8d6c9b6 dashboard: numbers that agree, a map on hover, wider cards

"All assets 704" sat beside "all assets in use 737", and both were correct
about different populations. The totals summed five specific asset types and
subtracted dual-bay secondaries; the status counts took every asset row of any
type with no collapse, so USB devices and hidden secondary bays inflated one
side of a comparison the layout invites. Status is now counted over exactly the
same assets the totals describe.

Warranty rows fell back to asset.name when the covered asset had no hostname,
and an asset's name is usually the MACHINE's descriptive name - which is how a
column meant to identify a PC ended up showing a machine. Hostname, else the
asset number, never the name. The machine number loses its label too: the row
is hostname, machine, state, and "machine 3015" spends a word on what position
already conveys.

Printer names now carry the floor-plan preview on hover, the same
LocationMapTooltip the printer's own page uses - a location name tells you the
room, the map tells you where to walk. Declared as map.maphover on the card, so
any card with coordinates gets it; a row without them shows a plain link rather
than being dropped.

Cards are four across rather than five. At five columns a row holding a
hostname, a machine number and a state truncates on exactly the rows that
matter. auto-fit, so two cards fill the width instead of leaving empty tracks.

Not covered by a test: the count fix. I started one and it was interrupted, and
I have not gone back for it - the assertion worth having is that in-use can
never exceed the total.

221bbb226e employees: an endpoint that says WHY a name did not resolve

The shopfloor board lost every photo and started showing lowercase SSOs where
names belong, and nothing in the system could say why. Both resolvers returned
None on any problem and three separate bare excepts threw the cause away, so an
unreachable HR host, a rotated credential, a renamed column and a genuinely
unknown SSO all produced identical output and no log line. That is not a bug in
the resolution so much as a hole where the diagnosis should be.

GET /api/employees/resolve/<sso> returns the same answer the board gets, plus
which source produced it (directory, hrdirectory, useaccount), which mode the
directory is in, and the exception text when a source failed. It is the
difference between "the board is broken" and "the HR host refused the
connection".

The two bare excepts in the shared resolvers now log rather than pass. The
external-directory branch is the one that fails on a live site; it was the one
saying nothing.

No behaviour change to the board itself - it still falls back exactly as
before. What changed is that the fallback is now visible.

42c050a9f4 dashboard: tighten the printer, warranty and notification cards

PRINTER CARD is now supplies at or below 5 percent, a new
printers_dashboardpercent setting. The report and the card want different
scopes: the report lists anything the thresholds call low, which is right for
planning an order, while the dashboard is asking what to walk out and change
today - and a cartridge at 18 percent is not that. Lowest first.

PRINTER LOCATION WAS ALWAYS EMPTY. The lookup went through db.session.get on
locationid and produced nothing even where a location is set; the printers list
has always read it through the asset relationship, so the card does too now.

WARRANTY ROWS are identified the way the floor identifies them: the PC's
hostname and the MACHINE it drives, reusing the same lookup behind the warranty
page's machine column so the board and the report cannot disagree about which
bay a PC belongs to. No dates - expired or expiring is the whole decision when
scanning a board, and the exact day belongs on the report you order from.

NOTIFICATIONS are stacked: the type in full on one line, the message beneath,
trimmed to 100 characters with the rest on hover. Inline, the type was
truncated to make room for prose that was then truncated anyway, and neither
read. A tooltip is omitted when the text was not trimmed, because one repeating
what is already on screen is noise.

Two general additions: layout: 'stacked' on a card, and map.detailtooltip.

8623db3ee2 dashboard: printer rows are a name and its cartridges, with the answer on hover
Some checks failed

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The printer card was a name followed by a comma-joined string of cartridges and
a location - the widest row on the board, and the one running past the card
edge.

Now: the printer name links to its page and reveals its location on hover, and
each depleted cartridge is its own chip showing "Black 4%", revealing the part
number to order on hover. The percentage says something is wrong; the part
number says what to do about it, which today means opening the printer's page
to find out. Every capacity tier is listed, as the report has always done.

Two additions to the card contract, both general: 'chips' maps a row key to a
list of {text, title, level}, and 'titletooltip' puts context on the row title.
Nothing load-bearing goes in a tooltip - hover is not discoverable and does not
exist on touch - so a chip always states the fact and only explains it on hover.

Chips are bordered rather than filled: a row of solid red pills reads as an
emergency even when a cartridge is merely low.

Also repaired a self-inflicted mess. A string-slice edit used a marker that
appears EARLIER in the file, so the slice was empty and two helpers were
injected at line 1, above the module docstring. Removed; the file parses and
the helpers live beside the route they serve.

c34815b87e dashboard: overflow links somewhere, tiles say what they count, rows stay inside
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 8s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Four fixes, all from looking at the real board.

"and N more" now links to a page showing them all. Telling someone 35 more PCs
are silent and leaving them to find the list is worse than not saying it. Each
card names its own destination and a test checks it against the routes that
actually exist - a viewall pointing at a route nobody wrote is the same rot the
endpoint check already guards, just failing in the browser instead of the API.

PRINTER ROWS ESCAPED THE CARD. A flex child will not shrink below its content
width unless told to, so text-overflow never engaged and a row carrying three
cartridge readings plus a location simply ran past the border. min-width:0 on
the row parts is what enables the ellipsis; meta shrinks first because it
matters least, and the card clips as a backstop.

THE STAT TILES WERE INCOHERENT. Two counted asset TYPES, two counted asset
STATUSES, and nothing said which - with the status one labelled "Active", which
reads as "not deleted" but meant status = In Use across every type. Each tile
now counts one thing and its label says so.

PCs GONE SILENT IS NARROWER, and better for it. A PC that never reported at all
is usually a hand-made or imported record rather than a bay that broke, and a
PC that is not In Use is silent ON PURPOSE - that is the status doing its job.
Both were burying the real signal: a machine that was working, is not now, and
nobody has marked as anything else.

lastseenat already recorded it and the API already returned it; nothing
displayed it, so from the UI a healthy machine still looked abandoned - one
revision from last spring and no sign anything had looked at it since.

The history page gains a Last verified column beside Captured, and the asset
panel a Verified field. Only the CURRENT revision carries one: an older
revision was superseded, so saying it was verified today would be false - what
was verified is the configuration the PC holds now.

A current revision with no check yet says "not yet checked" rather than showing
a blank or borrowing the captured date. That state is real and temporary: the
column is new, so every chain reports it until its PC next posts.

e0e4cce8bd dashboard: fix what a real fleet showed, which tests could not
Some checks failed

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Three faults, visible only once the board ran against production data.

BACKUPS SAID THE WHOLE FLEET HAD STOPPED. The lastseenat backfill was wrong. It
seeded from collectedat, reasoning that the last change was the last provable
moment - but an unchanged config writes no revision, so a machine whose settings
last changed nine months ago got a nine-month-old lastseenat and was instantly
reported as a dead backup. Every chain lit up at once, which is worse than no
card: it says the site is broken when it is fine.

The honest value is NULL. Before the column existed nothing recorded when a
config was last confirmed, and inventing a date does not change that. Migration
0003 clears the backfill, and staleness now IGNORES a NULL chain rather than
substituting timestamps that mean something else. A chain becomes measurable the
first time its PC posts, which for NTLARS is within a day.

TONER READ "None%". The supply dict has no 'percent' key - it is 'remaining'.
Supply names are also shortened, because "Black Toner Level 4%" spends three
words saying what the card already says.

THE CARDS READ AS WALLS OF TEXT. Rows wrapped into paragraphs and a card with
forty PCs pushed everything below it off the screen. Now: at most five rows with
"and N more", one line per row that truncates rather than wraps, meta pushed
right and dropped first since it matters least, and severity reduced to a small
dot beside an uppercase label instead of a coloured card - six severity-painted
cards read as a crisis, which is how a board stops being read.

Worth recording that none of this could fail in a test. Every one needed real
data on a real fleet.

5eb84873e8 dashboard: convert the last dead widgets, and delete the one that had nothing
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 8s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Three plugins still declared widgets naming Vue components nobody wrote.
Converting them honestly meant three different answers, not one.

notifications gets a real card: the active notifications themselves, not a
count. "4 active" tells an admin nothing; knowing WHICH message the shop is
looking at is the point, and it is how a stale one gets noticed and taken down.

machines gets machines out of service - anything not In Use, excluding
Inventory, because a spare on a shelf is stock rather than a problem. Someone is
supposed to be chasing each of those and today they are visible only to whoever
thinks to filter the list by status.

network gets NOTHING, and its declaration is deleted rather than converted.
Network devices carry no live status - no polling, no reachability check,
nothing that can be wrong - so the only possible card is a count of how many
exist, which is precisely the always-true number this dashboard exists to get
away from. A comment records that, so the next person does not re-add it. If
reachability is ever collected, that is the card.

Also adds a contract test over every declared card: no component names, a valid
renderer and severity, and - the one that matters - the endpoint must be a REAL
route. A declaration pointing at a route nobody wrote is exactly how the old
widgets rotted unnoticed for months, and now it fails the build instead.

7151b68bdd dashboard: printer supplies, expiring warranties, mis-numbered bays
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 8s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Wave one complete. Three cards, no new data and no migrations.

Printer supplies reuses the existing low-supplies query and its five-minute
cache; a Zabbix round-trip per printer on every dashboard load would make this
the slowest page in the app. One row per printer listing every depleted
cartridge, criticals first - a row per cartridge would report one printer three
times and read as three problems, and showing only the worst class would hide a
low cartridge behind a critical one on the same machine when whoever walks out
there wants to carry both.

While there: the low-supplies REPORT itself was including healthy cartridges. A
printer with one empty black and three full colour ones listed all four, so the
reader had to find the problem inside the row. It now lists only what needs
replacing, and the test that asserted the old behaviour now asserts the new.

Expiring warranties keeps already-expired entries on the list rather than
dropping them the day they lapse, which is how they get missed. Horizon is
warranty_expiringdays, default 90, because that suits a site budgeting
quarterly and nobody else.

Mis-numbered bays promotes check-shared-machines out of a CLI command nobody
will remember to run - it found seven bays that had been wrong for weeks. It
reports only numbers with NO child assets, so part markers legitimately sharing
an operation stay silent: that distinction is the whole card, and without it it
would list correct data beside faults and be ignored.

Printers also loses its dead component-named widget; notifications, network and
machines still have theirs.

6c975a107c backups: record that a config was checked, not only that it changed

CI / frontend (push) Successful in 10s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The stale-backup card could not be built as designed, and the reason is more
important than the card. Dedup means an unchanged configuration writes no
revision, so collectedat moves only on a CHANGE. A machine stable for six
months has a six-month-old newest revision and is perfectly healthy. Keying a
staleness card on revision age would have flagged most of the fleet - exactly
the noise that makes a board worth ignoring.

Underneath that: ShopDB could not distinguish those cases at all. On a no-op
the server returned "unchanged" and wrote nothing, so "we checked yesterday and
it matched" was discarded. That fact is the one thing a backup system must be
able to prove, and the only record of it was a line in a log file on the PC.

lastseenat records the check rather than the change. Touched on every matching
post including the no-op; set on creation, since a new revision has by
definition just been seen; backfilled from collectedat or createdat so existing
rows start from the last moment the config can be PROVEN current, rather than
from now - claiming a check that never happened would be worse than silence.

The card keys on it, one row per CHAIN rather than per asset: a machine with
two part markers can have one still reporting while the other stopped, and a
per-asset view would report the machine as fine. It stays deliberately silent
about assets never backed up, because whether one SHOULD be is a question only
the manifest can answer, and guessing would list a hundred healthy machines.

The rule lives in services/staleness.py rather than the route, so it is
testable without an auth layer in the way - the same split retention.py uses.

Threshold is backups_staledays, default 3, and 0 disables the card.

1ca8a9b8e8 dashboard: PCs not reporting, and the card styling standard it broke
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 8s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Second wave-one card. GET /api/computers/dashboard/quiet lists two populations
and deliberately does not merge them into one count. A PC that reported and
went quiet is probably off, moved or broken. A PC that has NEVER reported is
worse: not enrolled, or enrolled against the wrong pc-type, so nothing enforces
anything on it and no backup of it exists. That one hides indefinitely because
nothing about it fails loudly - the same shape as the bay that carried a wrong
machine number for weeks.

Never-reported sorts above the merely quiet, then longest silence first: the
order someone should work down the list, not the order rows left the table. A
soft-deleted PC is excluded - a decommissioned machine is silent on purpose,
and listing it would train people to ignore the card, which is the failure this
whole board exists to avoid.

The window is computers_quietreporthours, default 24, because every site will
disagree with any number picked here (ADR-015). A malformed value falls back
rather than failing the card.

This also replaces the computers plugin's old widget declaration, which named a
component nobody ever wrote. Four such declarations remain and will convert as
their cards arrive.

Two fixes to the renderer found while wiring this up. Meta specs now support a
trailing unit, so a row reads 'quiet for 3 days' rather than 'quiet for 3'. And
the card styles hardcoded hex colours against the frontend standard, including
a var(--card-bg) that DOES NOT EXIST - the variable is --bg-card - so the
fallback would have painted every card white and broken dark mode entirely.
Now --bg-card, --border, --danger, --warning, --primary and --link throughout.

05c150c663 dashboard: render plugin-declared cards, starting with enforcement failures
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 7s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The frontend now calls /api/dashboard/widgets. It never had, which is why five
plugins have been declaring widgets into a void for months, pointing at
components nobody ever wrote.

Core owns three generic renderers - exceptions, metric, list - and a plugin
declares data, a shape and a link template. The mapping logic lives in a plain
module beside the component, the same split as pluginAssetPanels.js, so it is
unit tested without mounting anything: 16 tests covering row mapping, empty
handling, ordering and gating.

The behaviours worth naming, because each is a decision rather than an
implementation detail:

Cards fetch INDEPENDENTLY and a failure becomes null. One hung endpoint - a
Zabbix call, a plugin mid-upgrade - cannot blank the board. A card whose fetch
failed HIDES rather than drawing empty, because "nothing wrong" and "I could
not tell" must not look the same.

Empty cards disappear by default. A card reporting nothing every day teaches
people to stop reading the page, which is precisely how a fleet log reached
3,234 lines with 17 that mattered. A card opts into a one-line presence only
when its absence is itself news.

Severity outranks position, so an info card can never sit above a failure.

Permission filtering happens BEFORE fetching: no point firing a request that
would only 403, and the dashboard must not become a way around RBAC.

An unknown render mode is skipped, so a plugin built against a newer core
degrades instead of leaving a hole.

A row whose link substitution is missing keeps the row and drops the link -
a PC shopdb does not know still reports its failure, and that is the bay most
likely to be misconfigured.

Cards sit ABOVE the totals: what needs a person first, context second. The
existing stat cards are untouched for now.

8b50e6fe2a geenforce: first dashboard card, and the widget contract it proves
Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 8s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Wave one of the dashboard proposal, built as a vertical slice so the contract
is proven by something real before the other five cards follow.

GET /api/geenforce/dashboard/failures lists entries that FAILED on their PC's
most recent enforcement cycle. Per ENTRY, not per report: "three PCs failed" is
a number, while "Install OpenText failed with exit 1603 on WJSF1234" is
something a person can act on. Only current reports count, so a failure that
has since been fixed clears itself instead of needing dismissing. Hostnames
resolve to computerids in one query so each row links to the PC, and a PC
shopdb does not know still appears - the failure is real even when the
inventory is behind, and that is the bay most likely to be misconfigured.

The data has been there all along. The only way to see any of it was to open
one PC's report modal, one PC at a time.

The widget declaration is the contract change. The old shape named a Vue
component per widget, which cannot survive a lean build where a plugin's
component may never be staged into the bundle - which is exactly why five
plugins declare widgets pointing at components nobody ever wrote. This declares
data, a generic renderer, a permission and a link template, the way ADR-010
already does for asset panels. A test asserts no 'component' key, so the old
shape cannot creep back.

empty: hide is part of the contract, not decoration. A card reporting "nothing
wrong" daily teaches people to stop reading the page, which is how a fleet log
reached 3,234 lines with 17 that mattered.

Frontend rendering comes next; the endpoint and declaration stand alone and
change nothing that exists.

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The dashboard reports totals that are true every day and actionable on none of
them. Meanwhile a bay returned 500 to every collector report for a day and a
half, eleven markers' backups overwrote each other for weeks, and GE-Enforce
records failures, stale manifests and repeated self-heals that surface nowhere.
Every one of those was found by someone going to look.

Two things found while writing this shaped it. The plugin mechanism already
exists - get_dashboard_widgets, an endpoint that aggregates across enabled
plugins and isolates failures, and five plugins declaring widgets. And nothing
consumes it: the frontend never calls the endpoint and not one of the declared
components was ever written. So this finishes a half-built feature rather than
starting one.

It also proposes fixing the contract while it is still unused. Naming a
component per widget does not survive a lean build, where a plugin's component
may not be staged into the bundle at all. ADR-010 already solved this for asset
panels - declare data and a render mode, let a generic core component draw it -
and the same three renderers cover every card listed.

The rest is principles that came out of this week: empty cards shrink, because a
card that says "nothing wrong" daily trains people to stop reading, which is how
a log reached 3,234 lines with 17 that mattered; every row links to the thing;
cards declare a permission so the dashboard cannot become a way around RBAC;
thresholds are settings with neutral defaults.

Wave one is six cards whose data is already reliable. Wave two is the valuable
one: diffing what a manifest says a PC should have against what it reports
having, which nothing answers today and which is what GE-Enforce exists to
guarantee.

touched the contract surface.

A minor rather than a patch: collector behaviour changed in ways an integrator
must know about. A reported machine number no longer becomes the PC's asset
number, it builds a controls link instead; a second PC claiming a machine is
treated as a claim rather than a handover; and a backup revision chain is now
per source PC rather than per asset.

CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The MECHANISM was already a documented platform contract - ADR-001 defines
partof as composition, makes controls propagate through it, and walks it first
for map-position inheritance. The part-marker work used that rail rather than
inventing one.

What was undocumented is the PATTERN built on it: several devices answering to
one identifier, each becoming its own asset filed under a parent. It existed
only as a collector behaviour for part markers plus a docstring in the device
map, so nothing told anyone how to apply it to another device type, or when not
to.

ASSET-COMPOSITION.md covers when to reach for it and when the shared identifier
is a numbering fault instead, what propagation buys, how to declare a device
type through the map or a per-site setting, what a backup kind must do to
follow the device rather than the parent, how to find the next case with
check-shared-machines, and why the parent is not disposable once devices hang
off it - deactivating it breaks filing, and a hard delete cascades through
backuprevisions.

c90ebcbc7c computers: declare subordinate devices instead of coding each one
Some checks failed

CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 6s
A PC that drives a device which is its own asset had been implemented twice.
METROLOGY_TOOL_MAP covered CMM, Keyence, Genspect and wax-trace, minting a
measuring_tool. A separate path keyed on one hardcoded pc-type minted a Part
Marker machine and filed it under its operation. Both create a device, link the
PC with controls, and archive that link when the PC is re-imaged: one mechanism
with different nouns, written out twice because the second case arrived later.

That is the same trap as the site literals in ADR-015 - a pattern implemented
per instance rather than declared - and it has a known next occurrence. Part
markers already share operation numbers, and any site with two marking lasers
or two wax-trace units on one number needs identical treatment.

One SUBORDINATE_DEVICE_MAP now declares asset type, type name, naming suffix,
whether the device files partof the operation, and the relationship label. The
labels are unchanged per case on purpose: those values are in the production
database and only rows carrying them are archived by a collector push. A site
overrides or adds an entry through subordinatedevice_<pctype> settings, per
ADR-015, so the next case needs no code. A malformed override falls back to the
default rather than failing the push, because a bad setting must not stop a bay
reporting its inventory.

metrology_tool_for stays as a shim over the same map: filters.py and the older
tests read it, and unifying must not change what it returns. A test pins that.

Also adds flask relationships check-shared-machines, which finds the next 0615
rather than waiting for someone to notice duplicate backups. Several devices
legitimately sharing a number and two PCs mis-numbered at imaging look the same
from outside; the difference is whether child assets exist, so that is what it
reports. Read-only.

Controller and share credentials are currently edited as cleartext into a

which a manifest scope cannot express because scopes are per PC TYPE. A scope

ShopDB therefore owns the definitions and the targeting, and a PC receives a
decided answer rather than rules to evaluate. Targeting uses the axes
GE-Enforce already filters on plus those the asset model knows: hostname
(including -like globs), machine, model, controller OS, PC type with alias
expansion, GE-Enforce profile, and a selector over the stored DNC projection -
"every machine whose DataHost is that share" is answerable from data already
held, and it also answers which machines need a credential at all.

Overlapping matches are guaranteed rather than exceptional, so precedence is
explicit: an integer priority, then scope specificity, then rule id for
stability. The resolver must be able to explain which rule won and why, or
nobody will trust it. It reuses plugins/geenforce/filters.py; there are already
two implementations of this matching logic kept honest by a parity harness, and
a third would drift silently.

Targeting stays separate from detection, mirroring PCTypes versus
DetectionMethod: who gets a credential is a server question, whether it is
already applied is a local one, and conflating them rewrites the secret every
cycle instead of healing drift.

Stored Fernet-encrypted with the key OUTSIDE the database, write-only through
the API and masked on read, fetched with a dedicated credentials.fetch scope so
a leaked collector key does not yield controller passwords, and every fetch
audited.

PROPOSED, not accepted: it makes ShopDB a credential store, and the key becomes
a single point of loss - restore the database without it and every credential
is unrecoverable, which docs/BACKUP-RESTORE.md must state in the same change
that implements this. Registry-only provisioning is recommended as a first step
regardless, since it removes the cleartext from the share immediately and the
client helper is identical either way.

Backup-NtlarsSettings reads backups_intervalhours from /api/settings/public,
because it runs before it holds any credential, and its Get-IntervalHours falls
back to 24 on any failure. The plugin never declared the key public, so the
endpoint did not return it, the fallback fired on every PC, and the setting
looked configurable in the UI while changing nothing. The fleet log shows the
symptom plainly: "Throttled: last attempt under 24h ago", every cycle,
regardless of what the setting said.

Declared public. A collection cadence is not a secret. backups_shareroot stays
private - it is internal topology - and the test asserts both directions so a
later edit cannot quietly widen it.

Same defect as the 3D parts kiosk label prefix already in this changelog: a
logged-out reader against an allowlist its key was not on. Worth noticing that
the pattern has now bitten twice.

ShopDB is a product several sites adopt, developed at one site against that
site's live fleet, so every feature arrives carrying West Jefferson's
hostnames, networks and share paths. A scan of plugins/ and shopdb/ returns 19
site literals, of which about 8 are a shipped default or a hardcode rather than
a comment: a kiosk URL baked into a PowerShell payload a sister site cannot
override, a WJ UNC path as the backup share default, and device.geaerospace.net
shipped as a SETTING DEFAULT - inherited silently by anyone who adopts.

The mechanisms already existed; the rule did not, so each value landed wherever
was convenient. The rule: a setting with a NEUTRAL default first, a
site-namespaced directory second, seed data third. Blank must be a working
state. Fleet-wide vocabulary such as the gea-shopfloor-* imaging types is not
site data and is out of scope - it already has a per-site override.

Enforced by an addition to check-naming-and-style.sh, which CI already runs, in
REPORT-ONLY mode. Making a 19-item backlog a hard gate the day it lands blocks
every unrelated commit until someone clears it; SITE_LITERALS_ENFORCE=1 turns
it into a gate once the listed hardcodes are done. The ADR carries that backlog,
including that the display FQDN domain is defined three times in three files.

Backups collected before markers became assets were filed against the operation
number the PC reported. The collector now files a marker PC's backup against
its marker, but only for backups collected since; everything already stored
stayed where it was, so the new marker assets read as empty while the operation
holds a mixed history.

The attribution is exact rather than a guess. A revision records the PC it was
read from, and the collector records which marker each PC drives, so the move
is that mapping applied. Revisions with no source hostname stay put, since
nothing says which marker they came from.

Moving a revision can duplicate one the collector has already written against
the marker, so the script collapses those as part of the move, keeping the
earliest so the date a config was first seen survives. Dry run by default.

A PC first seen before the machine-number fix was created with the machine
number as its OWN asset number, and the fix deliberately does not overwrite an
existing PC's asset number. So resolving the reported number can return the
reporting PC itself, and the marker was then filed partof its own PC - which
reads, on the machine page, as the PC being the operation.

The machine-link path already guarded this case; the marker path did not. It
now refuses and says why, naming the repair: rename the PC asset to its
hostname, or create the operation asset.

Some checks failed
CI / backend (push) Failing after 7s
CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Several Telesis markers serve one operation number - 0613, 0615 and WJPRT each
have more than one - so treating the operation as the marker collapsed separate
devices into a single record. Their configurations differ by COM port, so in
the backup history they overwrote each other, and no question about an
individual marker could be asked at all: how many there are, which port one is
on, which one failed.

There is one marker per PC, which makes the PC the marker's identity, so the
collector can mint the marker the same way it already mints a CMM or a Keyence
unit for a metrology PC. A marker PC now gets a Part Marker machine asset, the
PC controls it, and the marker is partof the operation whose number the PC
reports. An operation holds any number of markers.

A marker PC therefore does not claim the operation directly. controls
propagates through partof, which reference-data already seeds, so control of
the operation still follows from controlling its marker - without two markers
contesting a link only one of them can hold.

Backups from a marker PC resolve to the marker rather than the operation, and
fall back to the machine number whenever the marker cannot be resolved: no
hostname on the payload, a lean build without the computers or machines plugin,
or a marker PC that has not reported to the computers collector yet. Filing
under the operation is the old behaviour and beats rejecting a backup.

Moving a marker to another operation archives the old membership rather than
deleting it, so where a marker used to live stays answerable.

d429c882b4 backups: a revision chain belongs to a PC, not just a machine
Dedup compared a posted config against the latest revision for the ASSET,
which is only correct when a machine number means one PC. Several PCs share one
here: the part markers on 0613, 0615 and WJPRT are separate devices, differing
by COM port, filed under one machine number. Each marker's post therefore
differed from whichever marker had posted last, nothing ever deduped, and the
table grew by one row per PC per collection cycle.

A chain is now (asset, kind, source hostname). An unchanged config is a no-op
again, and each PC keeps its own history against the machine. NULL sources -
rows written before the column was populated, and hand-loaded ones - form their
own chain via IS NULL; `column == None` never matches in SQL, so without that
those rows would have re-posted forever.

Two consumers assumed the old key and are fixed with it. Retention pruned per
asset, so a busy marker's revisions could evict a quiet marker's only backup;
it now prunes each chain separately, protecting the newest and oldest of each.
The revision diff compared against the previous revision on the machine, which
across two markers reported one device's COM port as a change on the other; it
now compares within the source's own chain.

scripts/collapse_duplicate_backup_revisions.py cleans up what the old rule
wrote. It removes only a revision whose hash repeats the one before it in the
same chain - rows the fixed code would never have written - and keeps every
genuine change, every chain's newest and oldest, and every source. Dry run by
default. Its --report mode explains what grew each chain, which separates a
legitimately shared machine number from two PCs wrongly carrying the same one,
and from a value inside the config that changes on its own.

5108ba8aaa computers: a second PC claiming a machine is a claim, not a handover
Treating "another PC is linked to this machine" as proof of replacement was
wrong. A PC imaged for machine 3010 carries that number from the bench, before
it has replaced anything, and several PCs sharing one machine number is a
normal state at this site: the part markers do it. Both PCs then reported on
their own schedules, each report moved the link and raised an alert, and the
pair traded the machine back and forth for as long as both were alive.

The PC holding a machine now keeps it while it is still alive. Alive means it
has reported within MACHINE_CLAIM_QUIET_HOURS and its asset is still In Use. A
challenger is recorded as a dormant link instead, which doubles as the marker
saying the claim has already been announced, so a PC sitting on a bench does
not alert on every collector cycle.

The handover still happens on its own once the old PC has been quiet for a day,
which is what a PC pulled off a machine does. Moving the old PC off In Use -
Retired, Inventory, In Repair - hands the machine over on the next report,
which gives IT a one-step way to force a swap the moment it happens rather than
waiting out the window. A day is long enough that a PC switched off overnight,
or one behind a network outage, never loses its bay to a spare.

Alerts for both cases are gated on a new computers_machinelink_alerts setting
and ship OFF. Several part markers legitimately share a machine number here, so
the alerts would fire on correct data. Links, warnings in the collector
response, and archived history are unaffected; only the sending is gated.

Also: the alert goes through send_alert rather than resolving recipients by
hand, which had missed the SMTP_ALERT_RECIPIENTS environment fallback, so a
site configuring SMTP by environment would have got the webhook and no email.

9512b0bdb3 computers: the machine number identifies the machine, not the PC
A bay reporting machinenumber 3015 got a 500 from the collector every five
minutes since it was imaged, and would have forever: the reported number was
written to the PC's own assets.assetnumber, which is uniquely indexed and
already held by machine 3015, so the insert failed with "Duplicate entry '3015'
for key 'ix_assets_assetnumber'" and the entire report was discarded. Operating
system, boot time, applications, printers and access protocols never landed.
Every retry did the same thing, so there was no path out of it.

A new PC now takes its hostname as its asset number, which is what the data
already shows: of 289 computers none has a numeric asset number and 214 use
their hostname. An existing PC's asset number is left alone; overwriting it
renamed the PC onto the machine's identifier, changing how that PC is
identified everywhere else.

The machine number instead does what it was collected for. It resolves the
machine and links the PC to it with a 'controls' relationship carrying a
collector:machine origin label, the same discipline the printer and
measuring-tool links use, so a link made by hand is never archived by a
collector push. Reporting a different machine archives this PC's previous link;
a machine ShopDB does not know is reported as a warning rather than invented.

When another PC was already linked to that machine it has been replaced. The
old link is archived rather than deleted, so which PC ran a machine in a given
month remains answerable, and an alert goes out by email and webhook. The
retired PC's status is deliberately not changed: the collector cannot tell
whether it was shelved, sent for repair or re-imaged for another bay, and
guessing would overwrite what a person set.

A line of the form "Name=" with nothing after the sign is not strictly legal,

this. The parser raised on it, which failed the whole file, which meant that
machine could never be backed up at all. Read it as an empty string so the

2785c0463e warranty: use the shared LocationMapTooltip for the machine preview

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The machine map preview was a bespoke popover. LocationMapTooltip already
existed and is what the machine detail page uses, so the warranty tables now
show the same thing.

That is what was asked for - the preview zooms, as it does on the machine page -
and it comes with behaviour the bespoke one did not have: scroll-wheel zoom, and
staying open while the pointer is on the tooltip itself so it can actually be
read and panned.

It also solves the clipping properly. The previous commit reached for
position: fixed with a hand-rolled flip because .table-container's overflow-x
clipped an absolute child; LocationMapTooltip teleports to body, which avoids
the clipping context altogether rather than escaping it. All of that
positioning code, and the blueprint rendering, is deleted - 64 lines from 140.

An unplaced machine keeps its chip and now says why in the native tooltip
rather than showing an empty panel: 17 of the 142 linked machines have no map
position, and those rows still need their number.

CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
The bottom row's preview was cut off behind the pagination controls.

.table-container sets overflow-x: auto, and ANY non-visible overflow makes an
element a clipping context, so the absolutely-positioned preview was cropped at
the container's edge. The last row had nowhere to open into.

The preview is now positioned fixed from the chip's bounding rect, which
escapes the clip entirely, and flips ABOVE the chip when there is not room
below. It also clamps horizontally, since the column sits well to the right on
a wide table and the panel is nearly 300px.

Height is measured from the rendered element rather than assumed: it depends on
the blueprint's aspect ratio, which differs per site. That means one tick where
the element exists but is unplaced, so it starts hidden and is revealed once
positioned - otherwise it flashed in the corner of the screen.

Also sets white-space: normal. The table sets nowrap for its cells, which the
preview inherited and which ran the location line off the panel.

The Add User dialog was see-through over its own overlay in dark mode. Both it

were not.

Audited every modal-ish panel in the app while here. The remaining
var(--bg-card) uses are correct and deliberate: .relationships-section and
.permission-category are cards, and the audit-log .filters rules are form
controls - translucency is the intended look on all of them.

One more was worth changing: the warranty asset-search dropdown floats above
the form INSIDE a modal, so a translucent panel let the fields show through the
suggestions. That one is now solid too.

9e271b4c03 warranty: show the machine a covered PC drives, with a map on hover
A shopfloor PC is bought, warranted and replaced as a PC, but it is FOUND by
the machine it drives - nobody walks the floor looking for an asset number. The
warranty tables listed the covered asset and left the reader to work out where
that is.

Both tables gain a Machine # column. The payload resolves it by walking the
asset relationship graph in BOTH directions: the canonical edge is
PC --controls--> machine, but a dual-bay pair carries controls on both bays and
hand-made links are not reliably oriented.

Hovering the chip shows the floor map with the machine marked, so the row
answers "where do I go" without opening anything. The blueprint follows the
viewer's theme and the marker is placed from mapx/mapy as a percentage of the
configured map dimensions, since the preview is a few hundred pixels wide
rather than the full plan. It renders only while hovered, so a long table does
not build a blueprint per row.

A machine with no map position still gets its chip and says so, rather than
being dropped: against real data 142 PCs resolve to a machine and 125 of those
are placed, so 17 rows would otherwise have silently lost their number.

The chip is deliberately not a link. /machines/:id is keyed by machineid, not
assetid, and resolving one to the other here would make the warranty plugin
import the machines plugin (ADR-014). Worth noting separately: the existing
assetLink() in these tables already sends machine-type assets to
/machines/<assetid>, which is that same mismatch and predates this change.

CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Reported from a real display: Edge closed on the desktop but still listed in
Task Manager, and the watchdog never relaunched it.

That is this watchdog's own bug. It asked only whether a --kiosk process
existed. After an Edge update the window can be gone while the process lingers,
so the check said "kiosk is up" and returned - every cycle, forever. Matching on
the command line was chosen to stop a stray renderer masking a dead kiosk; it
does not help when the orphan is the parent.

A kiosk now counts as up only when a --kiosk process still owns a visible
window (MainWindowHandle). Windowless ones are killed BEFORE relaunching:
leaving them would satisfy the next cycle's check again, and a second browser
would fight the first for the display.

Also refuses to run as SYSTEM. MainWindowHandle is session-scoped, so a SYSTEM
caller reads 0 for a perfectly healthy kiosk and would kill and relaunch it on
every cycle. The task uses an interactive Users principal so this cannot
normally happen; the guard makes a mis-registered task fail loudly instead of
thrashing a display in a hallway.

Verified on Windows this time by letting the SCHEDULED TASK do the work rather
than invoking the script by hand - which is what the first version was missing:
  - task fired unattended (rc=0) and launched the kiosk into session 1
  - the next cycle saw the healthy kiosk and did nothing, no relaunch loop
  - a windowless --kiosk process was killed and replaced
  - run as SYSTEM, it refused and the healthy kiosk survived

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Every time on the board was wrong, from two faults stacked.

The shopfloor feed serialised starttime/endtime with a bare isoformat(). Those
columns are stored NAIVE but hold UTC, so an untagged string is read by the
browser as LOCAL and every card shifted by the tz offset. The model's to_dict
already learned this - its _utc_iso helper documents the exact symptom, a 14:34
notification showing 18:34 - but the feed had not, so the feed now uses it too.

The dashboard then formatted with toLocaleString, i.e. the VIEWER's zone. A
board hangs on a wall in the plant: it has to read plant time whatever the
machine driving it is set to, and a kiosk with a wrong system timezone would
otherwise show wrong times to the floor with nothing to reveal it. It now
loads site_timezone and formats through formatInZone, the wall clock included -
a header disagreeing with the cards beneath it is worse than either being
wrong alone.

startsWhen was worse still: it decided TODAY/TOMORROW from browser-local
calendar days, so the wording itself could differ between the board and a
remote admin looking at the same card. That arithmetic now runs on the site's
calendar day.

Separately, the type chip carried a margin-bottom while the state chip beside
it did not. .chip-row centres each item's MARGIN box, so that margin lifted the
type chip about 4px and left "Starts Thu, Aug 13 8:00 PM" looking low. The row
already provides the spacing, so the chip's own margin is gone.

efe34034e3 computers: collect remote-access protocols (RealVNC and friends)
The accessprotocols / computeraccess tables replaced the old isvnc/iswinrm
booleans and the PC page already badges what a machine exposes, but nothing
kept them current: the 574 rows in place all came from the legacy migration and
have not moved since. The collector schema had no field for them.

Adds 'accessprotocols', a list of catalog names, synced with the same
discipline as the printer links. A reported protocol is activated; a
catalogued one the PC did NOT report is deactivated rather than deleted, so a
manual portoverride survives a service being briefly down. An unknown name
warns and is skipped: the catalog is admin-managed, and a typo on one bay must
not invent a protocol for the whole site.

Presence of the key is what drives the sync. A payload without it leaves every
existing row untouched, which is what protects the migrated rows from a
collector that does not report protocols yet.

Six tests cover recording, case-insensitive matching, deactivation on removal,
the omitted-key no-op, an explicit empty list meaning "exposes nothing", and
that an unknown name never creates a protocol.

CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 6s
Kiosks were updating, closing Edge, and never coming back - the display stayed
dead until the next logon or reboot.

The kiosk is launched by an all-users Startup shortcut, which runs ONCE at
logon, and nothing supervised the browser afterwards. RelaunchNotification=2
was meant to cover the update case and does not: that policy drives Edge's own
update-restart, which depends on session restore to return to where it was.
Kiosk mode restores no session and has no UI to show the notification in, so
Edge honours the close and never the relaunch. The same gap swallowed crashes
and anyone closing the window.

Adds a scope entry that registers a scheduled task in the INTERACTIVE session -
SYSTEM cannot launch a visible browser, which is why the dispatcher writes a
shortcut rather than calling Start-Process. The task relaunches from that same
shortcut, so the target URL keeps one source of truth: retarget a subtype in
DISPLAY_TYPE_TARGETS and the watchdog follows unchanged.

Two details that matter. It matches on the COMMAND LINE, not the image name:
Edge runs a crowd of msedge.exe children and only the parent carries --kiosk,
so testing "is msedge running" would let a stray renderer mask a dead kiosk
forever - verified against a real kiosk PC showing 7 processes and 1 match. And
it avoids -RepetitionDuration [TimeSpan]::MaxValue, which serialises out of
range and is rejected, exactly as the kiosk installer documents.

A launch debounce stops a display that fails to start from spawning a browser
every cycle, the log is size-bounded because this runs forever on a PC nobody
watches, and it does nothing at all when no kiosk shortcut is present so it
cannot put Edge on a PC that never asked for one.

Verified on Windows: registers with the right principal and triggers, relaunches
when the kiosk is gone, debounces an immediate re-run, and is idempotent across
cycles (the staged script compare is trimmed - Set-Content adds a trailing
newline the here-string lacks, so an untrimmed compare rewrote it every cycle).

The link had a custom hover tooltip that took the hidden events with
dayEvents.slice(3) - correct while dayMaxEvents was a fixed 3, wrong the moment

'+4 more' sliced from index 3 and listed the wrong events; on a day with three

FullCalendar's own popover replaces it rather than the arithmetic being fixed:
no index to drift out of step with the cap, a header and a close button, every
event for that day listed, and it works on a touch screen - which a hover
tooltip never did on a kiosk. Clicking an event in the popover still opens the
detail modal.

That takes the hover handlers, the container mouseenter/mouseleave delegation,
the tooltip markup and styles, and the by-date index that existed only to feed

An audit of every scrollable element on the page, rather than the document

day-grid scroller sits 16px short of its own content at every window size.

It is phantom. The table inside measures exactly the scroller's height, the
last week sits flush with the bottom, and the horizontal axis is clean - there
is nothing to scroll to, but the browser paints a bar for the gap. Shrinking
the calendar to close it does not work either: the gap stays 16px however small
the grid gets, so the previous pass had started shrinking the month for
nothing. That correction is reverted to page overflow only.

The grid is sized to fit its six rows, so the scroller has nothing to reveal;
hiding it is safe and is what the earlier arithmetic was failing to buy.

Audited with 60 events across 12 days at 1920x1080, 1600x900, 1366x768,
1280x720 and 1920x1200: no scrollable element left in the calendar, six weeks
visible, last week fully in view, badges shown with a '+N more' where a short
row cannot hold them all.

The nav sidebar still scrolls on a short window - 100vh of viewport against
about 1384px of menu - but that is every page, not this one.

The previous attempt at this was verified against an empty month, which is why
it measured clean and still scrolled: put events in the month and the fixed
height clipped the grid, leaving the last week behind FullCalendar's own
scroller. The media-query floors it added are gone.

Two things were guessed and are now measured. The height came from
calc(100vh - 230px), a stand-in for chrome that is not 230px tall; it is taken
from the container's real top at mount and on resize, then corrected against
whatever the page still overflows by. And dayMaxEvents was a fixed 3, which
does not fit an 80px row - hence the overflow. It is `true` now, so
FullCalendar shows as many chips as the row genuinely holds and rolls the rest
into a '+N more'; that is the only setting that cannot outgrow the box. The
chips and the day-number strip are tighter, so more fit before that happens.

With 44 events across 11 days, at 1920x1080, 1600x900, 1366x768 and 1280x720:
all six weeks visible, no page scrollbar anywhere. A full-height display shows
every chip; a laptop shows one and a link.

The floors that keep the month grid from squashing - 620px on the calendar and
110px per day cell - add up to more than calc(100vh - 230px) yields on a 768 or
720 tall window. The floors won, the page overflowed, and a month that used to
fit needed scrolling to see.

They relax below 900px tall: 78px cells, which still show the day number and
three events, so the grid stays readable rather than collapsing to the strips
the floors were guarding against. Taller windows keep the roomy cells.

Measured at 1920x1080, 1600x900, 1366x768, 1280x720 and 1080x1920 portrait:
six rows and no page scrollbar in all five.

CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 6s
Two of the board's colours were still hardcoded: carousel headings were gold
and grid headings blue, left over from when carousel meant Recognition and grid
meant Recertification. A type wearing another type's colour is worse than no
colour at all, and it was the whole of the "why did my category turn blue"
puzzle - it had turned from one style's hardcoded colour to another's.

Headings now take a colour from the types beneath them. Where a row holds
several types, the one with the most cards wins, ties going to whichever sorts
first on the board. Live cards decide it; the upcoming set only gets a say when
nothing on the row has started yet, so a heading always describes what is
happening now. That covers the standard rows too - the old getSectionClass
painted the list red off a legacy 'danger' keyword.

Upcoming cards say so plainly: STARTS TOMORROW 2:06 PM, or the weekday and date
beyond that, on an amber chip, with a dashed border and a hollow carousel pip.
Shape as well as colour, so it reads from across the floor and does not depend
on telling amber from white.

Cards and tiles also carry the type's colour as a bar down the left edge, the
way the legacy board marked them; a 2px border reads as chrome at distance.

442a631557 Let a site choose the order its board rows run in
Rows ran in display-style order and then alphabetically, so what led the screen
was an accident of styling and the alphabet - a new type called Awareness
landed above Recertification for no better reason than the letter A.

Each type now carries a board position, lowest first, set on the Notification
Types page. The migration seeds Recognition at 10 and Recertification at 20 and
leaves everything else at 100, so an existing board keeps the order sites
already expect. Steps of ten leave room to slot a row in without renumbering
the rest.

A row shared by several types sits wherever its earliest-ordered type puts it,
so a category moves as a unit.

adb8542018 backups: show timestamps in the site timezone
Some checks failed

CI / naming (push) Successful in 2s
CI / frontend (push) Successful in 9s
CI / migrations-mysql (push) Failing after 7s
Backup timestamps read wrong because of two faults stacked, which is why it
looked like a single offset.

The API serialised naive ISO ("2026-08-07T12:00:00"), with nothing saying the
value was UTC. JavaScript's new Date() parses that as BROWSER-LOCAL, so every
timestamp shifted by the viewer's offset before any timezone formatting ran.
Every datetime this plugin stores is naive UTC, so the wire format now carries
a trailing Z.

The history view then formatted with toLocaleString(), i.e. the viewer's zone,
ignoring the site_timezone setting entirely. It now loads that setting and
formats through the shared formatInZone helper, matching NotificationsList.

The panel list label is built server-side with strftime, so a client cannot
correct it afterwards. It now converts to the site zone using the same Setting
lookup the notifications plugin uses - without that it showed UTC, four hours
out at West Jefferson.

Tests cover the wire format and that 16:30Z renders as 12:30 in
America/New_York.

c93ec7a949 backups: one tabbed DNC card, machine-numbered downloads, themed history
Some checks failed

DNC Info becomes a single tabbed card - General, eFocas, Serial, NTSHR and
MARK - instead of a flat wall of every value. On 3204 that is 11 rows visible
rather than 22, and on 0600 eleven rather than 27, which also stops the card
unbalancing the detail page's two-column layout.

Everything DNC now lives on that one card, so the Part Marker panel is gone:
its settings are the MARK tab. The partmarker KIND is untouched and still
stores, dedupes and serves revisions - they are listed on the backup history
page - it simply contributes no card of its own, which on 145 of 147 machines
would have been an empty box.

Downloads are named for the machine: 3204.reg, and 3204-wow6432node.reg for
the dialect that imports outside NTLARS. The view had been rebuilding the name
from sourcefilename and producing 3204.reg-wow6432node.reg, so the revision now
carries assetnumber and both ends agree. That needed a viewonly relationship to
Asset - no backref, so the core asset side gains no dependency on this plugin.

The history page was hardcoded to light colours (#e0e0e0, #f4f9ff, #666) and
rendered as a white table on a dark page. It now uses the palette variables
throughout, per frontend/CLAUDE.md. The current-revision tint is a color-mix
against --primary so it reads in both themes rather than a baked light blue
that disappears on dark, and the diff columns are headed as well as red/green,
since colour alone does not survive a colourblind reader.

a33470a34b asset panels: add a tabs render mode, align the keyvalue grid
A panel with many fields was unusable. The detail page is a two-column
multicol (.content-column is display:contents, so the left/right wrappers are
dissolved and cards flow into one balanced flow), and a card cannot be split
across a column break. One 30-row panel therefore became a single unbreakable
block that dragged its column far past the other.

The tabs mode renders sections one at a time, so such a panel stays the height
of its largest section. Payload is {sections: [{label, fields}]}; sections that
end up with no fields are dropped rather than left as empty tabs. The active
tab is marked by an underline AND weight, not colour alone.

keyvalue rows now sit in two aligned columns instead of space-between: a ragged
right edge is hard to scan, and one long value (a UNC path) otherwise pushed
its label away from every other row.

Four specs cover the new mode, including that it drives panel visibility.

Every machine was getting a Part Marker Configuration panel, and only two of
the 147 known machines are part markers. A kind applies to an asset TYPE, but
whether a given asset ever carries that kind of backup is a property of the
individual machine, so type alone cannot decide what to show.

The generic renderer already handled this: a list panel is visible when it has
rows OR declares empty text. Declaring emptytext on both kinds defeated it and
forced them to render everywhere. emptytext now defaults to None on the base
class, neither bundled kind sets one, and the panel builder OMITS the key
rather than emitting null - a present-but-null 'empty' would still have kept
the panel on screen.

The DNC Info card carried empty text that could never be displayed, since
keyvalue visibility is decided purely on field count. Removed rather than left
to mislead.

A lathe now shows DNC Info and NTLARS history; 0600 and 0614 additionally show
Part Marker once something collects for them; a machine with no NTLARS data
shows no backup panels at all. The emptytext mechanism stays available for a
kind that genuinely wants to say "expected here, nothing yet".

site-profile-universal.json is what the released Windows installer is built
from, so a bundled plugin missing from it is invisible to the install wizard.
Worse, `flask plugin prune-schema` drops the tables owned by plugins the site
did not install (ADR-014), so backuprevisions would have been dropped at
provisioning on every new site - a table that shipped in the build, removed
because the profile never named it.

The same omission explains why `flask plugin upgrade-all` skipped backups:
upgrade_all_plugins iterates the REGISTRY, not the plugins directory, on
purpose - a plugin folder merely sitting on disk unadopted must not have its
DDL run as a side effect of a deploy. instance/ is gitignored, so any machine
that never ran `flask plugin install backups` has it on disk but unadopted.

Nothing in the suite caught the stale profile, so this adds two guards: every
bundled plugin carrying a manifest must appear in the universal profile, and
the profile must not name a plugin that does not exist. Verified the first one
fails with the profile as it was.

The view linked to /assets/<assetid>, which is not a route. Each asset type
has its own detail route keyed by its own id (/machines/<machineid>), and
there is no generic asset detail page to return to, so the link 404'd.

Uses router.back() instead: this page is only ever reached from an asset
panel, so history is the correct destination regardless of the asset type,
and it needs no per-type route table. Falls back to the machines list when
opened directly from a pasted URL.

The /api/assets/<id> call that fetches the heading name is unaffected - that
endpoint does exist; it was only the frontend route that did not.
