The credential existed and was not reachable when it was wanted. Every box has
had a strong random root@pam password since TASK G1, vaulted in the hub at day 0
and used for real during the sshd incident — but the only way to read it back was
a hand-written curl carrying the global operator key, a secret kept out-of-band.
In practice the PVE web console on a demo box felt locked.
The host page grows a Console access card: presence + username + set_at by
default, Reveal fetches the plaintext on demand for 60 s with a Copy button.
Masking clears the JS variable, and also fires on a second click and on
visibilitychange. A host with nothing vaulted says so, and says why.
The secret is NEVER rendered into the page, and that constraint shapes the
change. The render path uses a new store.GetHostRecoveryMeta whose struct and
SELECT both omit the secret column, so it is structurally incapable of carrying
one. The plaintext crosses the wire only in the response to POST
/hosts/{id}/reveal-recovery-credential (Cache-Control: no-store, CSRF-gated at
the ServeHTTP level; POST precisely so that gate applies and so no secret is
retrievable by URL alone). Deliberately NOT the customer page's data-secret
widget, which embeds the plaintext on every load.
A delivered reveal writes one recovery_credential_revealed event on the host's
customer timeline (info, source hub, Hungarian) via SaveEvent alone — no
dispatcher, nobody emailed, the log_tail_requested shape. Two reveals write two
events: the register records accesses, not states. A 404 is not an access. An
unbound host reveals fine and writes no event; the [INFO] hub line, carrying the
username and a length only, is then the record.
The global-key API path is untouched by design — it is the route for when the
hub UI itself is broken, and coupling it to the session layer would delete the
independence that makes it a fallback.
Recorded as a real trade: the hub session password alone now unlocks console root
fleet-wide, where retrieval previously also needed the global key. Accepted for a
single-operator, HU-geo-fenced hub that already stores these passwords in
plaintext at rest (CONTEXT.md ruling S-4). The plaintext-at-rest half is filed as
R-133 — every hub DB backup is a fleet-wide console-credential dump.
Tests 550 -> 559; four red-proofs (page leak, audit event, CSRF gate, route
order) each run, observed failing, and reverted. The route-order proof is a seam
test driving ServeHTTP: a handler-level test cannot see that defect, because the
handler is correct and simply never runs.
Felhom — Documentation
Felhom is a managed home-server service for Hungarian households, built on a three-component model over Proxmox:
- Hub — operator backend on k3s (
hub.felhom.eu). Repo:felhom.eu/hub/. - Host agent — one per Proxmox host; operator-tier; owns all Proxmox interaction. Repo:
felhom-agent/. - In-guest controller — one per customer LXC; Docker-only; manages the customer's apps. Repo:
felhom-controller/.
This directory is the central, code-verified documentation home for all three components plus the platform and the security-audit record.

Conventions
- Code-verified, not memory-derived. Architectural claims here are checked against the actual current source; if a claim can't be verified it is omitted and flagged, not guessed.
- Per-repo operational working files (
CLAUDE.md,CONTEXT.md,CHANGELOG.md,BUGHUNT.md,REPORT.md,TASK.md) live in their own repos — they are operational, not published docs. - Authoritative versions at last refresh: controller v0.59.0, agent v0.29.1, hub v0.11.0.
