version 5.3.8

Replacing head -1 (and the broken head -2|tail -1 attempt) with grep -m 1
stops grep after the first match, eliminating the SIGPIPE that caused exit 141.

+# Heartbeat
+
+Heartbeat is a lightweight host monitoring system built around a simple idea: each machine you want to monitor runs a small client (`hbc`) that sends a UDP "heartbeat" packet to a central server (`hbd`) on a regular interval. If a heartbeat stops arriving, you get notified. Alongside reachability, clients can ship system metrics — CPU, memory, disk, network — and the server will alert you when any of those cross a threshold.
+
+## How it works
+
+```
+  [ monitored host ]              [ your server ]
+  ┌─────────────┐  UDP 50003     ┌────────────────────────┐
+  │     hbc     │ ────────────>  │  hbd                   │
+  │             │                │  host state tracking   │
+  │  plugins:   │  <──────────── │  threshold alerting    │
+  │  cpu, mem,  │  ACK / CMD     │  notifications         │
+  │  disk, ...  │                │  web dashboard + API   │
+  └─────────────┘                └────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+- **hbd** — the server daemon. Tracks which hosts are alive, evaluates metric thresholds, fires notifications, serves the web dashboard and REST API.
+- **hbc** — the client. Sends heartbeats and plugin data over UDP. Runs on any Linux/BSD/macOS host.
+- **hbc_mini** — a zero-dependency single-file alternative (`hbc_mini.py` or `hbc_mini.c`) for hosts where you can't install Python packages.
+
+Notifications can go to Pushover, email, Mattermost, Matrix, Signal, or VoIP.ms SMS. The dashboard shows host connectivity, RTT graphs, active alerts, and per-host plugin metrics in real time via WebSocket.
+
+---
+
+## Getting started
+
+This tutorial sets up a server on one machine and a client on a second machine. You'll end up with a working dashboard and your first host being monitored.
+
+### 1. Install the server
+
+On the machine that will run `hbd`:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.wrede.ca/andreas/heartbeat.git
+cd heartbeat
+python3 -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install .
+```
+
+Verify the install:
+
+```bash
+hbd --help
+```
+
+### 2. Create a server config
+
+Create `~/.hb.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+hb_port: 50003       # UDP port — clients send heartbeats here
+hbd_port: 50004      # HTTP port — web dashboard and API
+ws_port: 50005       # WebSocket port — live dashboard updates
+
+interval: 20         # Expected heartbeat interval (seconds)
+grace: 2             # Seconds of slack before a host is considered overdue
+
+pickfile: ~/.hb.pick
+pidfile:  ~/.hb.pid
+logfile:  ~/.hb.log
+```
+
+That's enough to get started. No hosts, no users, no notifications needed yet — the server will accept any client that connects.
+
+### 3. Start the server
+
+```bash
+hbd serve -c ~/.hb.yaml -f -v
+```
+
+`-f` keeps it in the foreground so you can watch the log. You should see:
+
+```
+Heartbeat daemon starting on UDP :50003, HTTP :50004, WS :50005
+```
+
+Open `http://your-server:50004/live` in a browser. The dashboard is empty for now.
+
+### 4. Install the client on a host to monitor
+
+On the machine you want to monitor (must be able to reach the server on UDP 50003):
+
+```bash
+pip install hbd      # or: copy scripts/hbc_mini.py if you can't install packages
+```
+
+#### Quick start — no config file
+
+```bash
+hbc your-server.example.com
+```
+
+Within a few seconds the server log will show the host checking in, and it will appear on the dashboard.
+
+#### With a config file
+
+Create `~/.hbc.yaml` on the client host:
+
+```yaml
+hb_port: 50003
+interval: 10         # Send a heartbeat every 10 seconds
+
+plugins:
+  cpu_monitor:
+    interval: 60
+  memory_monitor:
+    interval: 60
+  disk_monitor:
+    interval: 60
+```
+
+Then start the client:
+
+```bash
+hbc -c ~/.hbc.yaml your-server.example.com
+```
+
+Send a boot message at startup so the server logs when the host came up:
+
+```bash
+hbc -b -c ~/.hbc.yaml your-server.example.com
+```
+
+Run as a daemon (logs go to syslog):
+
+```bash
+hbc -d -b -c ~/.hbc.yaml your-server.example.com
+```
+
+### 5. View the dashboard
+
+Open `http://your-server:50004/live`. You'll see the monitored host, its last heartbeat time, and RTT. Click the host name to see plugin metrics.
+
+Navigate to `/plugins/<hostname>` for CPU, memory, and disk graphs.
+
+### 6. Add a notification channel (optional)
+
+Edit `~/.hb.yaml` on the server:
+
+```yaml
+notification_channels:
+  pushover_ops:
+    type: pushover
+    token: YOUR_APP_TOKEN
+    user: YOUR_USER_KEY
+
+users:
+  alice:
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...    # generate: hbd passwd alice
+    admin: true
+    notification_channels: [pushover_ops]
+
+default_owner: alice
+```
+
+Generate the password hash:
+
+```bash
+hbd passwd alice
+```
+
+Paste the output into the config, then reload:
+
+```bash
+hbd reload
+```
+
+Test the channel:
+
+```bash
+hbd notify
+```
+
+### 7. Set a threshold alert (optional)
+
+Add to `~/.hb.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+thresholds:
+  cpu_monitor:
+    cpu_percent:
+      warning: 80.0
+      critical: 90.0
+  disk_monitor:
+    partitions:
+      /:
+        percent:
+          warning: 80.0
+          critical: 90.0
+```
+
+Reload: `hbd reload`. The server will now alert when a monitored host crosses these values.

+A lightweight UDP-based host monitoring system. Monitored hosts run a client (`hbc`) that sends periodic heartbeat packets and system metrics to a central server (`hbd`). The server tracks host reachability, evaluates metric thresholds, sends notifications, and serves a web dashboard.
-# Heartbeat Daemon (hbd) ✅
-
-A lightweight daemon that listens for UDP heartbeat messages and acts on them: keeps host state, optionally updates DNS records via `nsupdate`, forwards messages to WebSocket clients, and sends notifications (email, Pushover, Mattermost, Signal). It is a refactor of a previously monolithic script into a modular Python package (`hbd`).

-## ⚙️ Quickstart
+## Installation
 
-Prerequisites:
+Dependencies are declared in `pyproject.toml`. Install into a virtualenv:
-- Python 3.10+ (project uses language features from recent Python) 
-- `nsupdate` (for DNS updates) if using dynamic DNS
-
-Install dependencies (recommended into a venv):
 
 ```bash
-python3 -m venv .venv
+# Server + client
-source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install .
-python -m pip install --upgrade pip
+
-python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
+# Using the install script
-# for development/testing tools
+scripts/hb_install.sh
-python -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
 ```
 
-Run the daemon (example):
+**Entry points:**
+- `hbd` — server (`hbd.server.cli:main`)
+- `hbc` — client (`hbd.client.main:main`)
 
-```bash
+**Runtime dependencies:**
-# run with default config lookup (~/.hb.yaml)
-PYTHONPATH=. hbd -c .hb.yaml -f -v
-```
-
-You can also run it directly via the package entrypoint after installation:
-
-```bash
-python -m hbd.cli -c /path/to/config.yaml
-```
-
-## 🐞 Debugging in VS Code
-
-This repository includes a ready-to-use `.vscode/launch.json` with configurations to run or attach the VS Code debugger to `hbd`.
-
-- Ensure the **Python** extension is installed and select the project `.venv` as the interpreter (bottom-left of VS Code).
-- Use **F5** and pick one of these configurations from the Run view:
-  - **Python: Run hbd (module)** — runs `hbd.cli` as a module and sets `PYTHONPATH` to the workspace root (recommended).
-  - **Python: Run hbd with debugpy (listen)** — launches `debugpy` and `hbd` together; useful when you want the process to listen for a debugger.
-  - **Python: Attach (localhost:5678)** — attach the debugger to a running process started with `debugpy`.
-
-To start `hbd` manually and wait for the debugger to attach, run:
-
-```bash
-PYTHONPATH=. python -m debugpy --listen 5678 --wait-for-client -m hbd.cli -c .hb.yaml -f -v
-```
-
-Set breakpoints in modules such as `hbd/udp.py`, `hbd/dns.py`, or `hbd/server.py`, and use the **Attach** configuration to connect. Use `justMyCode: false` if you need to step into third-party code.
 
+| Component | Packages |
+|---|---|
+| Both | PyYAML ≥6.0 |
+| Client | psutil ≥5.9.0 |

-## 🛠 Configuration
+## Server (`hbd`)
 
-`hbd` reads YAML configuration (optional). If `PyYAML` is not installed, built-in defaults are used. Example configuration keys (see `hbd/config.py`):
+### Starting the server
 
-- `hb_port`: UDP port to listen for heartbeats (default: 50003)
+```bash
-- `hbd_port`: internal control port (default: 50004)
+# Foreground, verbose, with config file
-- `hbd_host`: bind address for HTTP/WSS
+hbd serve -c /etc/hb.yaml -f -v
-- `pickfile`: path for persisted state
-- `logfile`: path to log file
-- `logfmt`: `text` or `msg`
-- `pushsrv`: push service (`pushover`|`mattermost`|`all`)
-- `interval` / `grace`: heartbeat timing configuration
-- `dyndomains`: list of dyndomains to update via `nsupdate`
-- `nsupdate_bin`: path to nsupdate binary
 
-Example `.hb.yaml` (minimal):
+# As a module
+python -m hbd.server.cli serve -c /etc/hb.yaml
+```
+
+### CLI subcommands
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `hbd serve` | Start the daemon (default) |

-> Tip: `config.DEFAULTS` in `hbd/config.py` contains the canonical defaults and accepted configuration keys.
+Send SIGHUP (or `hbd reload`) to reload configuration without restarting. Changes to ports, certificates, pickle path, and journal path require a full restart.
+
+### Persistence
+
+Host state (reachability, plugin data, alert states) is saved to `pickfile` every 5 minutes and on clean shutdown. The server loads this state on startup.

-## 🔧 Architecture & Modules
+## Client (`hbc`)
 
-- `hbd.proto` — serialization/deserialization of heartbeat messages (supports compressed payloads)
+### Usage
-- `hbd.udp` — UDP parsing and `handle_datagram` implementation (main state machine)
+
-- `hbd.dns` — `create_nsupdate_payload`, `nsupdate`, and a background DNS thread (`start_dns_thread`)
+```bash
-- `hbd.notify` — email and push notification helpers
+# Basic — send heartbeats to a server
-- `hbd.ws` — WebSocket server and thread-safe broadcast helpers
+hbc your-server.example.com
-- `hbd.http` — HTTP handler factory for the status UI/API
+
-- `hbd.utils` — small utility helpers (`shortname`, `dur`, `initlog`)
+# Multiple servers
-- `hbd.cli` — CLI entrypoint and argument parsing
+hbc server1.example.com server2.example.com
-- `hbd.server` — async orchestration to run UDP/HTTP/WSS components
+
-
+# With config file, running as a daemon
-This modular layout makes the code easier to test and maintain.
+hbc -d -c /etc/hbc.yaml your-server.example.com
-
+
----
+# Send a boot message, then heartbeat normally
-
+hbc -b your-server.example.com
-## 🧪 Testing & Dev
+
-
+# One-off message
-Tests are implemented using `unittest` and additional tests rely on `pytest` if you prefer. To run tests locally without installing anything beyond the dev requirements:
+hbc -m "maintenance starting" your-server.example.com
+
+# Force IPv4 or IPv6 only
+hbc -4 your-server.example.com
+hbc -6 your-server.example.com
+```
+
+### Options
+
+| Flag | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `-b`, `--boot` | Send a boot message at startup |
+| `-c`, `--config FILE` | Config file path (default: `~/.hbc.yaml`) |
+| `-d`, `--daemon` | Daemonize (logs go to syslog) |
+| `-m`, `--message TEXT` | Send a one-off message and exit |
+| `-n`, `--name NAME` | Override reported hostname |
+| `-v`, `--verbose` | Verbose output |
+| `-x`, `--debug` | Debug level (repeatable) |
+| `-4` / `-6` | Restrict to IPv4 or IPv6 |
+
+### Configuration (`~/.hbc.yaml`)
+
+```yaml
+hb_port: 50003         # Server UDP port
+interval: 10           # Heartbeat interval (seconds)
+owner: alice           # Optional: claim ownership of this host
+
+plugins:

+  disk_monitor:
+    interval: 300
+  network_monitor:
+    interval: 300
+  ping_monitor:
+    interval: 60
+    hosts: [8.8.8.8, 192.168.1.1]
+  nagios_runner:
+    interval: 300
+    commands:
+      - name: check_load
+        command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 5,4,3 -c 10,8,6
+      - name: check_disk_root
+        command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /
+  zfs_monitor:
+    interval: 300
+```
+
+### Connection behaviour
+
+- The client sends heartbeats over UDP to each server address resolved from the hostname (IPv4 and IPv6).
+- If a connection fails to open at startup, IPv6 connections are dropped after 3 consecutive failures. IPv4 connections retry indefinitely.
+- In daemon mode (`-d`), all log output goes to syslog (`LOG_DAEMON` facility).
+
+---
+
+## UDP Protocol
+
+All messages are zlib-compressed key=value pairs with an ID prefix.
+
+```
+!<ID>: <zlib-compressed payload>
+```
+
+Payload format: `key=value;key=value;...`
+
+| Message | Direction | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `HTB` | client → server | Heartbeat (name, timestamp, RTT, acks, interval) |
+| `PLG` | client → server | Plugin data (plugin name + metrics) |
+| `ACK` | server → client | Acknowledgment |
+| `CMD` | server → client | Execute a shell command on the client |
+| `UPD` | server → client | Trigger self-update via `hb_install.sh` |
+
+Value encoding:
+- Floats: 5 decimal places
+- Lists/dicts: JSON prefixed with `@`
+- Booleans: `1` / `0`
+
+RTT is measured using kernel SO_TIMESTAMP when available (Linux, macOS, FreeBSD), falling back to application-layer timing.
+
+---
+
+## Plugin System
+
+Plugins run on the client and collect system metrics that are sent to the server as `PLG` messages.
+
+### Plugin types
+
+| Type | `interval` | When collected |
+|---|---|---|
+| `InfoPlugin` | 0 | Once at startup; re-collected on server request |
+| `MonitorPlugin` | 30 (default) | Periodically on the configured interval |
+
+### Built-in plugins
+
+| Plugin | Type | Data collected |
+|---|---|---|
+| `os_info` | Info | OS, kernel, distro, architecture, Python version, hbc version |
+| `cpu_monitor` | Monitor | cpu_percent, per-core usage, load averages, process count, frequency |
+| `memory_monitor` | Monitor | RAM and swap usage (ZFS ARC-aware) |
+| `disk_monitor` | Monitor | Per-partition usage, disk I/O stats |
+| `network_monitor` | Monitor | Per-interface byte/packet counts, connection count |
+| `ping_monitor` | Monitor | RTT, packet loss, jitter per configured host |
+| `filesystem_info` | Info | Mounted filesystems (excludes pseudo filesystems) |
+| `nagios_runner` | Monitor | Output of configured Nagios-compatible check commands |
+| `zfs_monitor` | Monitor | ZFS pool health, capacity, fragmentation, dedup ratio, I/O |
+
+### Custom plugins
+
+Create a `.py` file in `hbd/client/plugins/`:
+
+```python
+from hbd.client.plugin import MonitorPlugin
+
+class MyPlugin(MonitorPlugin):
+    name = "my_plugin"
+    interval = 60
+
+    async def collect(self):
+        return {"my_metric": 42}
+```
+
+`initialize()` is called once at load time; return `False` to disable the plugin (e.g., if a required binary is missing).
+
+### Nagios integration
+
+The `nagios_runner` plugin executes any Nagios-compatible check binary:
+
+```yaml
+plugins:
+  nagios_runner:
+    commands:
+      - name: check_http
+        command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_http -H example.com
+```
+
+- Commands are validated (absolute paths, executable) at startup.
+- Exit codes map to OK / WARNING / CRITICAL / UNKNOWN.
+- Performance data fields are extracted and stored individually.
+- The `nagios` threshold operator maps exit codes directly to alert levels (see Threshold Alerting).
+
+---
+
+## Threshold Alerting
+
+The server evaluates plugin metrics against configurable thresholds and fires notifications on state changes.
+
+### Configuration
+
+```yaml
+thresholds:
+  cpu_monitor:
+    cpu_percent:
+      warning: 80.0
+      critical: 90.0
+      operator: ">"         # >, >=, <, <=, ==, != (default: >)
+      hysteresis: 0.1       # 10%: recover at 81 when critical=90
+      count: 1              # Require N consecutive breaches before alerting
+      display: "CPU {cpu_percent}% (threshold: {op_symbol}{threshold_value})"
+
+  memory_monitor:
+    percent:
+      warning: 85.0
+      critical: 95.0
+
+  disk_monitor:
+    partitions:
+      /:
+        percent:
+          warning: 80.0
+          critical: 90.0
+        free_gb:
+          warning: 10.0
+          critical: 5.0
+          operator: "<"
+
+  nagios_runner:
+    status_code:
+      operator: "nagios"    # 0=OK 1=WARNING 2=CRITICAL 3=UNKNOWN
+      display: "{check_name}: {output}"
+```
+
+### Per-host threshold profiles
+
+Named profiles let different hosts use different thresholds. A single name or a list is accepted; lists are applied left-to-right.
+
+```yaml
+threshold_configs:
+  default:
+    thresholds:
+      cpu_monitor:
+        cpu_percent: {warning: 80, critical: 90}
+
+  tight_cpu:
+    thresholds:
+      cpu_monitor:
+        cpu_percent: {warning: 60, critical: 75}
+
+hosts:
+  web-01:
+    threshold_config: default
+  db-01:
+    threshold_config: [default, tight_cpu]
+```
+
+### Alert states
+
+| State | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| OK | Metric within normal range |
+| WARNING | Metric crossed warning threshold |
+| CRITICAL | Metric crossed critical threshold |
+| UNKNOWN | Cannot determine (e.g. Nagios exit code 3) |
+
+Notifications are sent on state transitions (OK → WARNING, WARNING → CRITICAL, CRITICAL → OK). De-escalations (CRITICAL → WARNING) do not trigger a notification. Ongoing alerts generate a re-notification every `threshold_renotify_interval` seconds (default: 3600). Alerts can be acknowledged via the web UI or API to suppress re-notifications.
+
+### RTT thresholds
+
+The server measures heartbeat round-trip time and supports RTT thresholds using the same format:
+
+```yaml
+thresholds:
+  rtt:
+    webserver01:
+      warning: 100.0    # ms
+      critical: 500.0
+```
+
+### Generic threshold matching
+
+When a metric has no exact threshold entry, the server strips leading segments and retries. This allows one entry to cover all Nagios checks:
+
+```
+nagios_runner.check_disk_root_status_code → no match
+nagios_runner.disk_root_status_code       → no match
+nagios_runner.root_status_code            → no match
+nagios_runner.status_code                 → matched ✓
+```
+
+The stripped prefix (`check_disk_root`) is available as `{check_name}` in the `display` template.
+
+### Display template variables
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `{value}` | Current metric value |
+| `{threshold_value}` | Threshold that was crossed |
+| `{op_symbol}` | Comparison operator |
+| `{check_name}` | Prefix stripped by generic matching |
+| `{metric_name}` | Full field name |
+| `{output}` | Nagios check output text |
+| `{status}` | Nagios status name (OK/WARNING/CRITICAL/UNKNOWN) |
+| any plugin field | Any field present in the plugin's data |
+
+---
+
+## Notification Channels
+
+Notifications are dispatched to the host's owner, managers, and monitors. Each user specifies which channels to use.
+
+### Supported channel types
+
+| Type | Required fields |
+|---|---|
+| `pushover` | `token`, `user` |
+| `email` | `smtp_server`, `recipients`, `sender`, `user`, `password`, `port` |
+| `mattermost` | `webhook_url`, `channel` |
+| `matrix` | `homeserver`, `user`, `password`, `room_id` |
+| `signal` | `phone_number`, `recipient` |
+| `sms_voipms` | `api_key`, `recipient` |
+
+Each channel can set a `min_level` (`WARNING` or `CRITICAL`) to filter low-severity alerts.
+
+Recovery notifications are only sent to channels that received the original alert.
+
+---
+
+## Web Dashboard & HTTP API
+
+The server exposes a web UI and REST API on `hbd_port` (default 50004).
+
+### Web pages
+
+| Path | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `/login` | Login form (shown automatically when auth is configured) |
+| `/live` | Real-time host connectivity, RTT, and message stream |
+| `/plugins/<host>` | Per-host plugin metrics |
+| `/alerts` | Active alerts with severity filtering |
+| `/settings` | Server config, users, notification channels, thresholds |
+
+Live views use WebSocket connections for real-time updates.
+
+Non-admin users see only hosts where they have a role (monitor, manager, or owner). Admins see all hosts.
+
+### REST API
+
+All endpoints are under `/api/0/`. When authentication is configured, include a session token:
+
+```bash
+# Log in, get a token
+TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50004/api/0/auth/login \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{"username":"alice","password":"secret"}' | jq -r .token)
+
+# Use the token
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts
+```
+
+| Method | Endpoint | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts` | All visible hosts |
+| GET | `/api/0/alerts` | All active alerts |
+| GET | `/api/0/alert_summary` | Count of ok/warning/critical |
+| GET | `/api/0/messages` | Last 30 messages |
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/plugins` | All plugin data for host |
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/plugins/{plugin}?limit=N` | Plugin samples |
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/alerts` | Alert states for host |
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/access` | Access roles |
+| PUT | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/access` | Update access roles |
+| GET | `/api/0/hosts/{host}/info` | Host info (hbc version, thresholds) |
+| POST | `/api/0/alerts/acknowledge` | Acknowledge alert |
+| GET | `/api/0/users` | All users (admin only) |
+| GET | `/api/0/users/me` | Current user profile |
+| PUT | `/api/0/users/me` | Update own profile |
+| POST | `/api/0/auth/login` | Create session |
+| POST | `/api/0/auth/logout` | Destroy session |
+| GET | `/api/0/config` | Server config (secrets redacted) |
+| POST | `/api/0/config` | Update config |
+| GET | `/api/0/config/backups` | List config backups |
+| POST | `/api/0/config/rollback` | Roll back to previous config |
+| GET | `/api/0/notification_channels` | List channels |
+| POST | `/api/0/notification_channels` | Create channel |
+| PUT | `/api/0/notification_channels/{name}` | Update channel |
+| DELETE | `/api/0/notification_channels/{name}` | Delete channel |
+
+---
+
+## User Management & Authentication
+
+When no `users:` block is in config, the server runs unauthenticated — all existing behaviour is preserved.
+
+### Roles
+
+| Role | Capabilities |
+|---|---|
+| monitor | View status, plugin data, alerts |
+| manager | monitor + queue commands, trigger DNS, queue upgrades |
+| owner | manager + drop host, transfer ownership, update access |
+| admin | Owner-level on all hosts + access to server config and users |
+
+### Setup
+
+```yaml
+users:
+  alice:
+    full_name: Alice Smith
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...    # hbd passwd alice
+    admin: true
+    notification_channels: [pushover_ops]
+
+default_owner: alice    # Owns any host with no explicit owner
+
+hosts:
+  webserver01:
+    owner: alice
+    managers: [bob]
+    monitors: [carol]
+```
+
+Password hashing uses PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 (260,000 iterations). Sessions expire after 24 hours.
+
+OAuth2 login (Gitea) is supported:
+
+```yaml
+oauth:
+  gitea:
+    url: https://git.example.com
+    client_id: xxx
+    client_secret: yyy
+```
+
+---
+
+## Dynamic DNS
+
+When `dyndns: true` is set on a host and `dyndomains` is configured, the server updates DNS via `nsupdate` whenever the host's source address changes.
+
+```yaml
+nsupdate_bin: /usr/bin/nsupdate
+dyndomains:
+  - example.com
+
+hosts:
+  webserver01:
+    dyndns: true
+```
+
+DNS updates run asynchronously in a background worker.
+
+---
+
+## Message Journal
+
+All received messages are logged in JSONL format with automatic size-based rotation.
+
+```yaml
+journal_enabled: true
+journal_dir: /var/log/heartbeat
+journal_file: messages.journal
+journal_max_size: 104857600    # 100 MB
+journal_max_backups: 10
+```
+
+Example entry:
+
+```json
+{"timestamp":1711234567.123,"datetime":"2026-03-28T12:34:56","source_ip":"192.168.1.100","source_port":50003,"message":{"ID":"HTB","name":"webserver01","interval":10}}
+```
+
+---
+
+## `hbc_mini` — Zero-dependency client
+
+`scripts/hbc_mini.py` is a single-file client requiring only Python 3.8+ and no external packages. Copy it to any host and run directly.
+
+```bash
+python3 hbc_mini.py your-server.example.com
+python3 hbc_mini.py -d your-server.example.com     # daemon mode
+python3 hbc_mini.py -b your-server.example.com     # send boot message
+```
+
+Config: `~/.hbc.json` (JSON format, same keys as `~/.hbc.yaml`).
+
+**Available plugins:**
+
+| Plugin | Platform |
+|---|---|
+| `os_info` | All |
+| `ping_monitor` | All |
+| `nagios_runner` | All (not Windows) |
+| `cpu_monitor` | Linux (`/proc/stat`; no per-core, no frequency) |
+| `memory_monitor` | Linux (`/proc/meminfo`) |
+| `disk_monitor` | Linux, macOS, BSD (`df -P`) |
+| `network_monitor` | Linux (`/proc/net/dev`) |
+
+Not available vs full `hbc`: no YAML config, no `filesystem_info`, no `zfs_monitor`, no IPv6 early-fail protection.
+
+---
+
+## `hbc_mini.c` — C client
+
+`scripts/c/hbc_mini.c` is a single-file C port of `hbc_mini.py`. It has no runtime dependencies beyond libc, zlib, pthreads, and libm, and runs on Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and DragonFly BSD.
+
+### Build
+
+```bash
+cc -O2 -o hbc_mini scripts/c/hbc_mini.c -lz -lpthread -lm
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+The CLI is identical to `hbc_mini.py`:
+
+```bash
+./hbc_mini your-server.example.com
+./hbc_mini -d your-server.example.com      # daemon mode (logs to syslog)
+./hbc_mini -b your-server.example.com      # send boot message
+./hbc_mini -m "note" your-server.example.com   # send one-shot message
+./hbc_mini -4 your-server.example.com      # IPv4 only
+./hbc_mini -6 your-server.example.com      # IPv6 only
+```
+
+Config: `~/.hbc.json` (JSON, same keys as the Python version).
+
+### Architecture
+
+The C client uses two threads:
+
+- **Main thread** — heartbeat sender loop + `select()`-based receive loop (1 s timeout). Sends `HTB` at the configured interval, receives `ACK`/`CMD` messages, and re-sends `os_info` on server request.
+- **Monitor thread** — all periodic plugins in a single thread with a 1-second sleep loop. Each plugin has its own next-run timestamp tracked independently.
+
+SIGHUP causes the process to restart itself via `execv()`. SIGTERM/SIGINT trigger a clean shutdown (sends a shutdown heartbeat if `-b` was used).
+
+### Available plugins
+
+| Plugin | Platform | Data source |
+|---|---|---|
+| `os_info` | Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly | `uname(2)`, `/etc/os-release`, `kern.osrelease` sysctl |
+| `cpu_monitor` | Linux | `/proc/stat` |
+| `cpu_monitor` | FreeBSD, DragonFly, NetBSD | `kern.cp_time` sysctl |
+| `memory_monitor` | Linux | `/proc/meminfo` (ZFS ARC-aware) |
+| `memory_monitor` | FreeBSD, DragonFly | `vm.stats.vm.*` sysctl |
+| `memory_monitor` | NetBSD | `VM_UVMEXP` sysctl |
+| `disk_monitor` | All | `df -P` subprocess |
+| `network_monitor` | Linux | `/proc/net/dev` |
+| `network_monitor` | FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly | `getifaddrs()` + `AF_LINK` |
+| `ping_monitor` | All | `ping` subprocess |
+| `nagios_runner` | All | `popen()` subprocess |
+
+`cpu_monitor` reports: `cpu_percent`, `cpu_user`, `cpu_system`, `cpu_idle`, `cpu_iowait` (Linux only), load averages, `cpu_core_count`, `uptime_seconds`.
+
+`memory_monitor` reports: `memory_total`, `memory_used`, `memory_available`, `memory_free`, `memory_percent`, and swap fields when swap is present.
+
+`network_monitor` reports per-interface cumulative `bytes_recv`/`bytes_sent` and interval deltas. The loopback interface (`lo`) is skipped by default; this is configurable:
+
+```json
+{
+  "plugins": {
+    "network_monitor": {
+      "skip_interfaces": ["lo", "docker0"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`disk_monitor` reports per-mount `total`, `used`, `free`, `percent`. An optional mount filter restricts reporting to specific paths:
+
+```json
+{
+  "plugins": {
+    "disk_monitor": {
+      "mounts": ["/", "/data"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Differences from `hbc_mini.py`
+
+- No `filesystem_info` or `zfs_monitor` plugins
+- `UPD` (self-update) messages are logged but not acted on
+- No IPv6 early-fail protection
+- Config is JSON only (`~/.hbc.json`), no YAML
+

----
+### Debugging in VS Code
 
-## 🚀 Running in production
+A `.vscode/launch.json` is included with configurations for running and attaching the debugger. Select the project `.venv` as the Python interpreter, then use F5.
 
-- Use your system service manager (systemd, launchd, etc.) to run `hbd` in the background.
+To start with debugpy and wait for attach:
-- Ensure `nsupdate` and necessary credentials are available for dynamic DNS updates.
-- Configure TLS for WSS if you enable secure websockets.
 
-> Note: The project contains a small example for obtaining DNS-verified certs (certbot with RFC2136) — see earlier commit history or ask me to re-add the example to this README if you want it documented here.
+```bash
+PYTHONPATH=. python -m debugpy --listen 5678 --wait-for-client -m hbd.server.cli serve -c .hb.yaml -f -v

+# Configuration Reload
+
+The heartbeat daemon (hbd) supports runtime configuration reloading without requiring a full restart. This allows you to update certain configuration settings while the service continues running.
+
+## How to Reload Configuration
+
+Send a SIGHUP signal to the running hbd process:
+
+```bash
+# Find the process ID
+ps aux | grep hbd
+
+# Or use pidof/pgrep
+pidof hbd
+pgrep -f hbd
+
+# Send SIGHUP signal
+kill -HUP <pid>
+
+# Or if using systemd
+systemctl reload heartbeat
+```
+
+## What Can Be Reloaded
+
+The following configuration sections can be reloaded without restarting:
+
+### ✅ Fully Reloadable
+
+- **Notification Channels** (`notification_channels`)
+  - Add, remove, or modify notification channel definitions
+  - Update tokens, API keys, SMTP credentials
+  - Change recipient lists
+
+- **Threshold Configurations** (`threshold_configs`)
+  - Modify warning and critical thresholds
+  - Add or remove threshold rules
+  - Change operators and hysteresis values
+  - Update display formats
+
+- **Host Configuration** (`hosts`)
+  - Change watch status
+  - Update notification channel assignments
+  - Modify threshold config assignments
+  - Change dyndns status
+
+- **Host Lists**
+  - `watchhosts` - hosts to monitor
+  - `dyndnshosts` - hosts with dynamic DNS
+  - `drophosts` - hosts to ignore
+
+- **Runtime Settings**
+  - `grace` - grace period multiplier
+  - `interval` - expected heartbeat interval
+  - `threshold_renotify_interval` - re-notification interval
+  - `debug` - debug level
+  - `verbose` - verbose output
+
+- **DNS Settings**
+  - `dyndomains` - dynamic DNS domains
+  - `nsupdate_bin` - nsupdate binary path
+  - `rndc_key` - RNDC key path
+
+### ⚠️ Requires Restart
+
+The following settings **cannot** be reloaded and require a service restart:
+
+- **Network Ports**
+  - `hb_port` - UDP heartbeat port
+  - `hbd_port` - HTTP API port
+  - `ws_port` - WebSocket port
+  - `wss_port` - Secure WebSocket port
+
+- **SSL/TLS Settings**
+  - `cert_path` - SSL certificate path
+  - `wss_pem` - SSL certificate file
+  - `wss_key` - SSL key file
+
+- **Persistence**
+  - `pickfile` - Pickle file path
+
+- **Logging**
+  - `logfile` - Log file path
+
+- **Journal Settings**
+  - `journal_enabled` - Enable/disable journaling
+  - `journal_dir` - Journal directory
+  - `journal_file` - Journal filename
+  - `journal_max_size` - Maximum journal size
+  - `journal_max_backups` - Number of backup files
+
+## Reload Process
+
+When a SIGHUP signal is received:
+
+1. **Configuration File Loading**
+   - The config file is re-read from disk
+   - YAML parsing is performed
+   - Validation checks are run
+
+2. **Component Updates**
+   - Notification system is updated with new channel definitions
+   - Threshold checker reloads all threshold configurations
+   - Alert states are preserved to maintain hysteresis
+
+3. **Error Handling**
+   - If reload fails, the previous configuration is kept
+   - Error messages are logged
+   - Service continues running with old configuration
+
+4. **Logging**
+   - Reload start and completion are logged
+   - Each component reports its reload status
+   - Total number of thresholds is reported
+
+## Example Reload Session
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: Watch the logs
+tail -f /var/log/heartbeat.log
+
+# Terminal 2: Edit configuration
+vim /path/to/.hb.yaml
+
+# Make changes to notification channels or thresholds
+# Save the file
+
+# Terminal 3: Trigger reload
+kill -HUP $(pgrep -f hbd)
+
+# Terminal 1: See reload messages
+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: Received SIGHUP, initiating config reload...
+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: ============================================================

+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: ============================================================
+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: Configuration reloaded from /path/to/.hb.yaml

+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: Configuration reload completed successfully
+2026-04-01 12:34:56 INFO: ============================================================
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+### 1. Update Notification Credentials
+
+If you need to rotate API keys or update SMTP passwords:
+
+```yaml
+notification_channels:
+  pushover_standard:
+    type: pushover
+    token: new-token-here    # Updated
+    user: new-user-key-here  # Updated
+```
+
+Just edit the config file and send SIGHUP - no restart needed.
+
+### 2. Adjust Threshold Values
+
+Fine-tune alerting thresholds based on observed behavior:
+
+```yaml
+threshold_configs:
+  default:
+    thresholds:
+      cpu_monitor:
+        cpu_percent:
+          warning: 85.0   # Increased from 80.0
+          critical: 95.0  # Increased from 90.0
+```
+
+Send SIGHUP to apply the new thresholds immediately.
+
+### 3. Add New Notification Channels
+
+Add a new notification destination:
+
+```yaml
+notification_channels:
+  email_oncall:
+    type: email
+    recipients: [oncall@example.com]
+    sender: alerts@example.com
+    smtp_server: smtp.example.com
+
+hosts:
+  critical_server:
+    threshold_config: default
+    watch: true
+    notification_channels: [pushover_standard, email_oncall]  # Added
+```
+
+The new channel becomes active immediately after SIGHUP.
+
+### 4. Update Watch List
+
+Start or stop monitoring hosts without restart:
+
+```yaml
+hosts:
+  new_server:
+    threshold_config: default
+    watch: true           # Start watching
+    notification_channels: [pushover_standard]
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Test Configuration Before Reload**
+   - Validate YAML syntax before sending SIGHUP
+   - Check for typos in channel names
+   - Verify threshold values are reasonable
+
+2. **Monitor Reload Logs**
+   - Always check logs after reload to confirm success
+   - Look for error messages if reload fails
+   - Verify expected number of thresholds loaded
+
+3. **Backup Before Changes**
+   - Keep a backup of working configuration
+   - Use version control (git) for config files
+   - Document why changes were made
+
+4. **Gradual Rollout**
+   - Test changes on development server first
+   - Apply to one production server at a time
+   - Verify behavior before applying everywhere
+
+5. **Plan for Restart-Required Changes**
+   - Schedule downtime for port or SSL changes
+   - Use blue-green deployment if possible
+   - Keep service downtime minimal
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Reload Doesn't Apply Changes
+
+**Check:**
+- Is the config file path correct?
+- Did you save the file after editing?
+- Are there YAML syntax errors?
+- Check the logs for error messages
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Validate YAML syntax
+python -c "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open('.hb.yaml'))"
+
+# Check file modification time
+ls -l .hb.yaml
+
+# View logs
+journalctl -u heartbeat -f
+```
+
+### Partial Configuration Applied
+
+**Cause:** Some sections reloaded, others didn't.
+
+**Solution:** Check logs to see which components failed. Common issues:
+- Invalid channel type
+- Missing required threshold fields
+- Invalid host references
+
+### Service Becomes Unresponsive
+
+**Cause:** Malformed configuration caused an exception.
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Revert to backup configuration
+2. Send SIGHUP again to reload the good config
+3. If service is completely stuck, restart it
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+The reload mechanism uses:
+
+- **Signal Handling**: SIGHUP triggers reload event
+- **Async-Safe Reloading**: Configuration is loaded asynchronously
+- **Component Coordination**: All affected components are updated atomically
+- **State Preservation**: Alert states and hysteresis information are maintained
+- **Error Recovery**: Failed reloads don't affect running configuration

+# Dark Mode
+
+Every page in the Heartbeat web UI supports light mode, dark mode, and automatic (follows the OS/browser setting). Each user picks their preference independently; it is stored in the browser and takes effect immediately without a page reload.
+
+---
+
+## Choosing a theme
+
+Open your profile page (`/profile`) and scroll to the **Appearance** section. Click one of the three buttons:
+
+| Button | Behaviour |
+|--------|-----------|
+| **Auto** | Follows the OS or browser dark-mode preference. Updates live if the system setting changes. |
+| **Light** | Always light, regardless of system setting. |
+| **Dark** | Always dark, regardless of system setting. |
+
+The preference is stored in `localStorage` under the key `hbd_theme` and applies to the current browser only. Clearing browser storage resets it to **Auto**.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation notes
+
+### No flash of unstyled content
+
+A small synchronous `<script>` runs at the very top of `<head>`, before any CSS is parsed, and sets `data-theme="dark"` on `<html>` when the stored preference (or the system setting in auto mode) calls for dark. Because it runs before paint, there is no visible flicker on page load.
+
+### CSS custom properties
+
+All colours are expressed as CSS custom properties defined in `head.html`:
+
+```
+:root                    — light-mode values (default)
+html[data-theme="dark"]  — dark-mode overrides
+```
+
+Key variables:
+
+| Variable | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|
+| `--bg` | Page background |
+| `--surface` | Card / panel background |
+| `--surface-2` / `--surface-3` | Slightly lighter/darker surfaces (table rows, hover states) |
+| `--text` / `--text-sec` / `--text-muted` | Primary, secondary, muted text |
+| `--border` / `--border-2`…`4` | Border shades from prominent to faint |
+| `--link` | Hyperlink and interactive-element colour |
+| `--nav-bg` | Navigation bar background |
+| `--input-bg` / `--input-border` | Form control colours |
+| `--shadow` / `--shadow-sm` | Box-shadow alphas |
+
+A single global rule in `head.html` themes all `<input>`, `<select>`, and `<textarea>` elements across every page at once:
+
+```css
+html[data-theme="dark"] input:not([type=checkbox]):not([type=radio]),
+html[data-theme="dark"] select,
+html[data-theme="dark"] textarea { … }
+```
+
+Each page template adds its own `html[data-theme="dark"]` block for page-specific elements (cards, tables, badges, etc.).
+
+### Auto-mode live updates
+
+A `matchMedia` change listener in `head.html` updates `data-theme` whenever the OS preference changes, so users in **Auto** mode see the theme switch without reloading.
+
+### Semantic colours are unchanged
+
+Alert colours (red for critical, orange for warning, green for ok) and status indicators are intentionally left as fixed values — they are semantic signals, not surface colours, and look correct on both light and dark backgrounds.

+# HTTP API and Web UI Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+The Heartbeat Daemon provides a comprehensive HTTP API and web-based UI for monitoring plugin data and alert states. The API follows RESTful conventions and returns JSON responses.
+
+## Base URL
+
+All API endpoints are relative to the server base URL:
+```
+http://your-server:50004
+```
+
+Default port is `50004` (configurable via `hbd_port` in configuration).
+
+---
+
+## Authentication
+
+When [user accounts are configured](USERS.md), every request must be authenticated.
+
+- **Browser requests** to HTML pages are redirected to `/login` automatically.  JavaScript `fetch()` calls on the dashboards send the session cookie automatically — no JS changes are needed.
+- **API / programmatic requests** must include the token in an `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header or an `X-Auth-Token` header.
+
+Unauthenticated API requests receive `401 Unauthorized`.  When no users are configured the server runs in unauthenticated mode and all endpoints are open.
+
+### Login
+
+```bash
+TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50004/api/0/auth/login \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{"username":"alice","password":"secret"}' | jq -r .token)
+
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts
+```
+
+See [User Management](USERS.md) for full authentication documentation.

+
+**Response:** `{"ok": true}`
+
+**Status codes:** `200 OK`, `403 Forbidden`, `404 Not Found`
+
+---
+
+#### DELETE /api/0/notification_channels/{name}
+Delete a channel. Only the channel owner or an admin may delete it.

+## Integration Examples
+
+### Monitoring Script
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Check for critical alerts and send notification
+
+# Log in first (when auth is configured)
+TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50004/api/0/auth/login \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{"username":"monitor","password":"secret"}' | jq -r .token)
+AUTH="-H \"Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN\""
+
+RESPONSE=$(curl -s $AUTH http://localhost:50004/api/0/alerts)
+CRITICAL_COUNT=$(echo "$RESPONSE" | jq '.summary.critical')
+
+if [ "$CRITICAL_COUNT" -gt 0 ]; then
+    echo "CRITICAL: $CRITICAL_COUNT critical alerts detected!"
+    echo "$RESPONSE" | jq '.alerts[] | select(.level=="CRITICAL")'
+    # Send notification
+    # mail -s "Critical Alerts" admin@example.com < alert_details.txt
+fi
+```
+
+### Python Client
+
+```python
+import requests
+import json
+
+BASE = 'http://localhost:50004'
+
+# Log in (skip if auth not configured)
+resp = requests.post(f'{BASE}/api/0/auth/login',
+                     json={"username": "alice", "password": "secret"})
+token = resp.json().get("token")
+headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"} if token else {}
+
+# Get all plugin data for a host
+response = requests.get(f'{BASE}/api/0/hosts/webserver01/plugins', headers=headers)
+data = response.json()
+
+print(f"Host: {data['hostname']}")
+print(f"Plugins: {', '.join(data['plugins'].keys())}")
+
+for plugin, info in data['plugins'].items():
+    print(f"\n{plugin}:")
+    for metric, value in info['data'].items():
+        print(f"  {metric}: {value}")
+
+# Check for alerts
+response = requests.get(f'{BASE}/api/0/alerts', headers=headers)
+alerts = response.json()
+
+if alerts['summary']['critical'] > 0:
+    print(f"\n⚠️  {alerts['summary']['critical']} CRITICAL ALERTS!")
+    for alert in alerts['alerts']:
+        if alert['level'] == 'CRITICAL':
+            print(f"  - {alert['hostname']}: {alert['metric_path']} = {alert['last_value']}")
+```
+
+### Grafana Integration
+
+The API endpoints can be used with Grafana's JSON datasource plugin:
+
+1. Install the SimpleJSON datasource plugin
+2. Configure datasource URL: `http://your-server:50004`
+3. Create queries:
+   - Metrics: `/api/0/hosts/webserver01/plugins/cpu_monitor?limit=100`
+   - Alerts: `/api/0/alerts`
+
+### Prometheus Integration
+
+Export metrics in Prometheus format (future enhancement):
+
+```python
+# Example prometheus exporter
+from prometheus_client import Gauge, generate_latest
+import requests
+
+cpu_usage = Gauge('heartbeat_cpu_percent', 'CPU usage percentage', ['hostname'])
+memory_usage = Gauge('heartbeat_memory_percent', 'Memory usage percentage', ['hostname'])
+
+def collect_metrics():
+    hosts = requests.get('http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts').json()
+    for host in hosts:
+        hostname = host['name']
+        plugins = requests.get(f'http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts/{hostname}/plugins').json()
+        
+        if 'cpu_monitor' in plugins['plugins']:
+            cpu_data = plugins['plugins']['cpu_monitor']['data']
+            cpu_usage.labels(hostname=hostname).set(cpu_data.get('cpu_percent', 0))
+        
+        if 'memory_monitor' in plugins['plugins']:
+            mem_data = plugins['plugins']['memory_monitor']['data']
+            memory_usage.labels(hostname=hostname).set(mem_data.get('percent', 0))
+```
+
+---
+
+## Response Formats
+
+### Success Response
+All successful API calls return HTTP 200 with JSON body:
+```json
+{
+  "field": "value",
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+### Error Response
+API errors return appropriate HTTP status codes with JSON:
+```json
+{
+  "error": "Host 'unknown-host' not found"
+}
+```
+
+**Common Status Codes:**
+- `200 OK` - Success
+- `400 Bad Request` - Invalid parameters
+- `401 Unauthorized` - Missing or invalid session token
+- `403 Forbidden` - Authenticated but insufficient role
+- `404 Not Found` - Resource not found
+- `500 Internal Server Error` - Server error
+
+---
+
+## WebSocket API
+
+For real-time updates, connect to the WebSocket endpoint:
+
+**URL:** `ws://your-server:50005/hbd` (or `wss://` for secure)
+
+**Messages:**
+```json
+{
+  "type": "host",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "webserver01",
+    "state": "UP"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "plugin",
+  "data": {
+    "host": "webserver01",
+    "plugin": "cpu_monitor",
+    "data": {...},
+    "timestamp": 1711234567.123
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Enable HTTP Server
+
+```yaml
+# In your hbd configuration file
+hbd_host: ""           # Listen on all interfaces
+hbd_port: 50004        # HTTP port
+ws_port: 50005         # WebSocket port (optional)
+# wss_port: 50006      # Secure WebSocket (requires SSL)
+```
+
+### SSL/TLS Configuration
+
+For secure WebSocket connections:
+
+```yaml
+wss_port: 50006
+cert_path: /etc/heartbeat/certs/
+wss_pem: server.pem
+wss_key: server.key
+```
+
+---
+
+## Rate Limiting
+
+The API currently does not implement rate limiting. For production use, consider:
+
+- Placing behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Apache)
+- Using API gateway for rate limiting
+- Implementing caching for frequently accessed endpoints
+
+---
+
+## CORS Support
+
+By default, CORS is not enabled. To enable for web applications:
+
+```python
+# In http.py, add CORS middleware
+from aiohttp_cors import setup as cors_setup
+
+app = web.Application()
+cors = cors_setup(app)
+
+# Configure CORS for all routes
+for route in list(app.router.routes()):
+    cors.add(route, {
+        "*": aiohttp_cors.ResourceOptions(
+            allow_credentials=True,
+            expose_headers="*",
+            allow_headers="*",
+        )
+    })
+```
+
+---
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Caching
+- Plugin data is cached in memory (last 100 samples per plugin)
+- No database queries required
+- Responses are fast (<10ms typical)
+
+### Scalability
+- Each host stores its own data independently
+- Memory usage: ~1KB per host + ~1KB per plugin sample
+- For 100 hosts with 5 plugins: ~50MB memory
+
+### Best Practices
+1. Use `limit` parameter to control response size
+2. Cache responses on client side when appropriate
+3. Use WebSocket for real-time updates instead of polling
+4. Consider pagination for large deployments (future enhancement)
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### API Returns 401
+- Auth is configured — include `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header
+- Token may have expired (24 h TTL) — log in again
+
+### API Returns 403
+- Authenticated user lacks the required role for this host/action
+- Check host's `owner`, `managers`, `monitors` config
+
+### API Returns 404
+- Verify hostname in URL matches actual host name
+- Check host is sending heartbeats: `curl http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts`
+
+### No Plugin Data
+- Verify client is configured with plugins
+- Check client logs for plugin errors
+- Ensure plugins are sending data (check journal logs)
+
+### Empty Alerts
+- Verify thresholds are configured
+- Check host is in `watchhosts` list
+- Ensure plugins are collecting metrics
+- Review server logs for threshold checker errors

+# Message Journal
+
+The message journal provides persistent logging of all received heartbeat messages with automatic size-based log rotation.
+
+## Overview
+
+The journal logs every message received by the heartbeat daemon (hbd) in JSON format, making it easy to:
+- Audit message history
+- Debug connection issues
+- Analyze traffic patterns
+- Replay messages for testing
+- Create historical reports
+
+## Features
+
+- **JSON Format**: Each message is logged as a single JSON line for easy parsing
+- **Size-Based Rotation**: Automatically rotates logs when size threshold is reached
+- **Automatic Cleanup**: Keeps only a configurable number of backup files
+- **Thread-Safe**: Safe for concurrent access from multiple async tasks
+- **Configurable**: All settings controllable via configuration file
+- **Performance**: Non-blocking async operation with minimal overhead
+
+## Configuration
+
+Add these settings to your hbd configuration file (e.g., `.hb.yaml`):
+
+```yaml
+# Message journal configuration
+journal_enabled: true                          # Enable/disable journaling
+journal_dir: /var/log/heartbeat                # Directory for journal files
+journal_file: messages.journal                 # Base filename
+journal_max_size: 104857600                    # Max size in bytes (100MB default)
+journal_max_backups: 10                        # Number of backup files to keep
+```
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `journal_enabled` | `true` | Enable or disable message journaling |
+| `journal_dir` | `/var/log/heartbeat` | Directory where journal files are stored |
+| `journal_file` | `messages.journal` | Base filename for the journal |
+| `journal_max_size` | `104857600` (100MB) | Maximum file size before rotation |
+| `journal_max_backups` | `10` | Number of rotated backup files to keep |
+
+## File Format
+
+Messages are logged in JSONL (JSON Lines) format - one JSON object per line:
+
+```json
+{"timestamp":1711234567.123,"datetime":"2026-03-28T12:34:56","source_ip":"192.168.1.100","source_port":50003,"message":{"ID":"HTB","name":"webserver1","interval":30}}
+{"timestamp":1711234597.456,"datetime":"2026-03-28T12:35:37","source_ip":"192.168.1.101","source_port":50003,"message":{"ID":"PLG","plugin":"cpu_monitor","cpu_percent":45.2,"load_1min":1.5}}
+```
+
+### Entry Structure
+
+Each journal entry contains:
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `timestamp` | float | Unix timestamp (seconds since epoch) |
+| `datetime` | string | ISO 8601 formatted datetime |
+| `source_ip` | string | Source IP address |
+| `source_port` | integer | Source UDP port |
+| `message` | object | Complete parsed message dictionary |
+
+## Log Rotation
+
+### How Rotation Works
+
+1. Journal writes messages to the current file
+2. When file size exceeds `journal_max_size`, rotation is triggered
+3. Current file is renamed with timestamp: `messages.journal.YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS`
+4. New empty file is created as the current journal
+5. Old backup files exceeding `journal_max_backups` are deleted
+
+### Example File Structure
+
+```
+/var/log/heartbeat/
+├── messages.journal                    # Current active journal
+├── messages.journal.20260328-120000   # Rotated backup
+├── messages.journal.20260328-140000   # Rotated backup
+└── messages.journal.20260328-160000   # Rotated backup (oldest)
+```
+
+### Rotation Behavior
+
+- Rotation is triggered when the next message would exceed the size limit
+- Rotation is automatic and requires no manual intervention
+- Old backups are deleted in FIFO order (oldest first)
+- Rotation is thread-safe and won't lose messages
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Reading Journal Files
+
+#### Using Python
+
+```python
+import json
+
+# Read all entries from current journal
+with open('/var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal', 'r') as f:
+    for line in f:
+        entry = json.loads(line)
+        print(f"{entry['datetime']} - {entry['source_ip']} - {entry['message']['ID']}")
+```
+
+#### Using jq (command line)
+
+```bash
+# View all messages
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq .
+
+# Filter by message type
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq 'select(.message.ID == "HTB")'
+
+# Filter by hostname
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq 'select(.message.name == "webserver1")'
+
+# Count messages by type
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq -r '.message.ID' | sort | uniq -c
+
+# Extract timestamps and source IPs
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq -r '[.datetime, .source_ip, .message.ID] | @tsv'
+```
+
+#### Using shell tools
+
+```bash
+# Count total messages
+wc -l /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal
+
+# View recent messages
+tail -n 100 /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal | jq .
+
+# Search for specific host
+grep -F '"name":"webserver1"' /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal
+
+# Check journal file size
+du -h /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal
+```
+
+### Analyzing Historical Data
+
+```bash
+# Combine all journal files (current + backups)
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal* | jq . > all_messages.json
+
+# Count messages per host
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal* | jq -r '.message.name // "unknown"' | sort | uniq -c
+
+# Find all plugin messages
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal* | jq 'select(.message.ID == "PLG")'
+
+# Extract CPU metrics from plugin messages
+cat /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal* | \
+    jq 'select(.message.plugin == "cpu_monitor") | {time: .datetime, host: .message.name, cpu: .message.cpu_percent}'
+```
+
+## Integration with Log Management
+
+### Logrotate
+
+While the journal has built-in rotation, you can also use logrotate for additional management:
+
+```
+/var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal.* {
+    daily
+    rotate 30
+    compress
+    delaycompress
+    missingok
+    notifempty
+}
+```
+
+### Elasticsearch/OpenSearch
+
+Import journal data into Elasticsearch for advanced analysis:
+
+```python
+from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
+import json
+
+es = Elasticsearch(['localhost:9200'])
+
+with open('/var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal', 'r') as f:
+    for line in f:
+        entry = json.loads(line)
+        es.index(index='heartbeat-messages', body=entry)
+```
+
+### Splunk
+
+Create a Splunk input for the journal:
+
+```ini
+[monitor:///var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal*]
+sourcetype = heartbeat_json
+index = heartbeat
+```
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Overhead
+
+- Journal writing is async and non-blocking
+- Typical overhead: < 1ms per message
+- Minimal impact on heartbeat processing
+
+### Disk Usage
+
+Calculate expected disk usage:
+
+```
+Messages per day = (86400 seconds / interval) * number_of_hosts
+Average message size ≈ 200-500 bytes
+Daily disk usage = Messages per day * Average message size
+
+Example:
+- 100 hosts
+- 30 second interval  
+- 2880 messages/day per host
+- 288,000 messages/day total
+- ~60-140 MB/day
+```
+
+### Recommendations
+
+- **Small deployments** (< 50 hosts): Default settings work well
+- **Medium deployments** (50-500 hosts): Increase `journal_max_size` to 500MB, `journal_max_backups` to 20
+- **Large deployments** (> 500 hosts): Consider 1GB+ journal files, 30+ backups, or external log aggregation
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Check Journal Status
+
+The journal exposes statistics that can be queried:
+
+```python
+from hbd.journal import get_journal
+
+journal = get_journal()
+stats = journal.get_stats()
+print(f"Current size: {stats['current_size']:,} bytes")
+print(f"Rotation threshold: {stats['rotation_threshold']}")
+```
+
+### Log Messages
+
+Journal operations are logged at appropriate levels:
+
+- `INFO`: Initialization, rotation events, cleanup
+- `DEBUG`: Individual message logging
+- `WARNING`: Non-critical issues
+- `ERROR`: Critical failures
+
+Check hbd logs for journal-related messages:
+
+```bash
+grep journal /var/log/heartbeat.log
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Journal Files Not Created
+
+**Problem**: No journal files appear in the configured directory.
+
+**Solutions**:
+- Check `journal_enabled: true` in configuration
+- Verify directory exists and hbd has write permissions
+- Check hbd logs for initialization errors
+- Verify disk space is available
+
+### Rotation Not Working
+
+**Problem**: Journal file grows beyond `journal_max_size`.
+
+**Solutions**:
+- Check that `journal_max_size` is properly configured
+- Verify hbd has permission to rename/create files
+- Check for filesystem issues
+- Review hbd logs for rotation errors
+
+### Missing Messages
+
+**Problem**: Some messages don't appear in journal.
+
+**Solutions**:
+- Verify `journal_enabled: true`
+- Check for write errors in hbd logs
+- Verify sufficient disk space
+- Check if filesystem is read-only
+
+### Performance Issues
+
+**Problem**: Journal causing slow message processing.
+
+**Solutions**:
+- Use faster storage (SSD) for journal directory
+- Increase `journal_max_size` to reduce rotation frequency
+- Disable journal if not needed: `journal_enabled: false`
+- Consider async syslog forwarding instead
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### File Permissions
+
+Ensure proper permissions on journal files:
+
+```bash
+# Journal directory
+chmod 750 /var/log/heartbeat
+chown hbd:hbd /var/log/heartbeat
+
+# Journal files
+chmod 640 /var/log/heartbeat/messages.journal*
+```
+
+### Sensitive Data
+
+Journal files may contain:
+- Hostnames and IP addresses
+- System metrics
+- Custom message content
+
+**Recommendations**:
+- Restrict read access to authorized users only
+- Consider encryption for archived journals
+- Implement log retention policies
+- Sanitize data if sharing for debugging
+
+## API Reference
+
+### MessageJournal Class
+
+```python
+class MessageJournal:
+    def __init__(self, config: Dict[str, Any])
+    async def initialize(self) -> bool
+    async def log_message(self, msg: Dict, addr: tuple, timestamp: float)
+    async def close(self)
+    def get_stats(self) -> Dict[str, Any]
+```
+
+### Module Functions
+
+```python
+def get_journal(config: Dict = None) -> MessageJournal
+async def log_message(msg: Dict, addr: tuple, timestamp: float = None)
+```
+
+## Example: Custom Message Processing
+
+Process journal messages in real-time:
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+import json
+from pathlib import Path
+
+async def tail_journal(journal_path):
+    """Follow journal file and process new messages."""
+    path = Path(journal_path)
+    
+    with open(path, 'r') as f:
+        # Jump to end
+        f.seek(0, 2)
+        
+        while True:
+            line = f.readline()
+            if line:
+                entry = json.loads(line)
+                await process_message(entry)
+            else:
+                await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
+
+async def process_message(entry):
+    """Process a journal entry."""
+    msg = entry['message']
+    
+    # Alert on boot messages
+    if msg.get('boot'):
+        print(f"ALERT: {msg['name']} rebooted at {entry['datetime']}")
+    
+    # Track CPU usage
+    if msg.get('ID') == 'PLG' and msg.get('plugin') == 'cpu_monitor':
+        cpu = msg.get('cpu_percent', 0)
+        if cpu > 90:
+            print(f"WARNING: {entry['source_ip']} CPU usage: {cpu}%")
+```
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements for future versions:
+
+- Compression of rotated logs (gzip)
+- Time-based rotation in addition to size-based
+- Filtering to exclude certain message types
+- Structured logging output formats (CEF, GELF)
+- Remote syslog forwarding
+- Message deduplication
+- Journal file encryption
+- Signed journal entries

+# Nagios Plugin Integration Guide
+
+The Heartbeat monitoring system now supports running existing Nagios-compatible monitoring plugins through the `nagios_runner` plugin. This allows you to leverage the thousands of existing Nagios plugins without modification.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Install Nagios Plugins
+
+**Debian/Ubuntu:**
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install nagios-plugins
+```
+
+**RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:**
+```bash
+sudo yum install nagios-plugins-all
+# or
+sudo dnf install nagios-plugins-all
+```
+
+**Arch Linux:**
+```bash
+sudo pacman -S monitoring-plugins
+```
+
+### 2. Configure Heartbeat
+
+Add the `nagios_runner` section to your `~/.hb.yaml` config:
+
+```yaml
+nagios_runner:
+  interval: 60          # Run plugins every 60 seconds
+  timeout: 30           # Command timeout in seconds
+  commands:
+    - name: check_disk_root
+      command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /
+    
+    - name: check_load
+      command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 5,4,3 -c 10,8,6
+    
+    - name: check_procs
+      command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_procs -w 250 -c 400
+```
+
+### 3. Start Heartbeat Client
+
+```bash
+hbc -v localhost
+```
+
+The client will now execute the configured Nagios plugins and send their results to the server.
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Nagios Plugin Standard
+
+Nagios plugins follow a simple interface:
+
+1. **Exit Codes:**
+   - `0` = OK
+   - `1` = WARNING
+   - `2` = CRITICAL
+   - `3` = UNKNOWN
+
+2. **Output Format:**
+   ```
+   STATUS - Message | performance_data
+   ```
+
+3. **Performance Data Format:**
+   ```
+   'label'=value[UOM];[warn];[crit];[min];[max]
+   ```
+
+### Example Plugin Output
+
+```bash
+$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /
+DISK OK - free space: / 156 GB (78%); | /=44GB;127;142;0;159
+```
+
+This output includes:
+- **Status:** `DISK OK`
+- **Message:** `free space: / 156 GB (78%)`
+- **Performance Data:** `/=44GB;127;142;0;159`
+  - Current value: 44GB
+  - Warning threshold: 127GB
+  - Critical threshold: 142GB
+  - Min: 0GB
+  - Max: 159GB
+
+### Data Collected
+
+The `nagios_runner` plugin collects:
+
+**For each configured command:**
+- `{name}_status` - Status string (OK, WARNING, CRITICAL, UNKNOWN)
+- `{name}_status_code` - Numeric exit code (0-3)
+- `{name}_output` - Status message
+- `{name}_{metric}` - Each performance metric value
+- `{name}_{metric}_uom` - Unit of measurement (if present)
+- `{name}_{metric}_warn` - Warning threshold (if present)
+- `{name}_{metric}_crit` - Critical threshold (if present)
+- `{name}_{metric}_min` - Minimum value (if present)
+- `{name}_{metric}_max` - Maximum value (if present)
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+```yaml
+nagios_runner:
+  # Collection interval in seconds (default: 60)
+  interval: 60
+  
+  # Command execution timeout in seconds (default: 30)
+  timeout: 30
+  
+  # Execute commands via shell (default: true)
+  # Set to false for direct execution (more secure but less flexible)
+  shell: true
+  
+  # List of Nagios plugins to run
+  commands:
+    - name: unique_name       # Required: unique identifier
+      command: /path/to/plugin [args]  # Required: full command to execute
+```
+
+## Common Nagios Plugins
+
+### System Resources
+
+**Disk Space:**
+```yaml
+- name: check_disk_root
+  command: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w 20% -c 10% -p /
+```
+

+```
+
+## Writing Custom Nagios Plugins
+
+You can write your own Nagios-compatible plugins in any language. Here's a simple example:
+
+**Bash:**
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# /usr/local/bin/check_example.sh
+
+# Get the value to check
+value=$(some_command)
+
+# Define thresholds
+warn=80
+crit=90
+
+# Check and output result
+if [ $value -ge $crit ]; then
+    echo "CRITICAL - Value is $value | value=${value};${warn};${crit};0;100"
+    exit 2
+elif [ $value -ge $warn ]; then
+    echo "WARNING - Value is $value | value=${value};${warn};${crit};0;100"
+    exit 1
+else
+    echo "OK - Value is $value | value=${value};${warn};${crit};0;100"
+    exit 0
+fi
+```
+
+**Python:**
+```python
+#!/usr/bin/env python3
+# /usr/local/bin/check_example.py
+
+import sys
+
+def check_something():
+    value = get_value()  # Your check logic here
+    warn = 80
+    crit = 90
+    
+    perfdata = f"value={value};{warn};{crit};0;100"
+    
+    if value >= crit:
+        print(f"CRITICAL - Value is {value} | {perfdata}")
+        sys.exit(2)
+    elif value >= warn:
+        print(f"WARNING - Value is {value} | {perfdata}")
+        sys.exit(1)
+    else:
+        print(f"OK - Value is {value} | {perfdata}")
+        sys.exit(0)
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    check_something()
+```
+
+Then configure in Heartbeat:
+```yaml
+nagios_runner:
+  commands:
+    - name: my_custom_check
+      command: /usr/local/bin/check_example.sh
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Plugin not found
+```
+Error: Command not found
+```
+**Solution:** Use the full path to the plugin. Common locations:
+- `/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/`
+- `/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/`
+- `/usr/local/nagios/libexec/`
+
+### Permission denied
+```
+Error: Permission denied
+```
+**Solution:** Ensure the plugin is executable:
+```bash
+chmod +x /path/to/plugin
+```
+
+### Timeout errors
+```
+Command timed out after 30s
+```
+**Solution:** Increase the timeout in config:
+```yaml
+nagios_runner:
+  timeout: 60  # Increase timeout
+```
+
+### No performance data
+If performance data is not being parsed:
+1. Check plugin output includes `|` separator
+2. Verify performance data format: `'label'=value[UOM];...`
+3. Enable debug logging: `hbc -v -x localhost`
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Massive Plugin Library:** Thousands of existing Nagios plugins available
+2. **No Rewriting:** Use plugins as-is without modification
+3. **Community Support:** Well-documented and maintained plugins
+4. **Flexibility:** Mix Nagios plugins with native Heartbeat plugins
+5. **Standard Interface:** Consistent exit codes and output format
+6. **Performance Data:** Automatic extraction of metrics

+# Notification System
+
+## Overview
+
+Notifications are dispatched to the **owner and managers** of a host, each via their own configured notification channels. Channel definitions are global; users reference them by name. No users configured → no notifications sent.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Alert event (udp.py / threshold.py)
+  └─ notify.send_notification(host_name, Notification)
+       ├─ look up host.owner + host.managers
+       ├─ for each user → user.notification_channels
+       └─ for each channel → _dispatch_to_channel (filtered by min_level)
+```
+
+Every notification carries:
+- **title** — `[LEVEL] hostname` (e.g. `[CRITICAL] webserver01`)
+- **body** — detail message (metric value, threshold, duration)
+- **url** — link to the plugin metrics page (`{base_url}/plugins#{hostname}`)
+- **level** — `RECOVER | WARNING | CRITICAL | INFO`
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Base URL
+
+Set `base_url` so notification links point to your hbd instance:
+
+```yaml
+base_url: https://hbd.example.com
+```
+
+### Channel definitions
+
+Channels are defined under `notification_channels`. Each entry specifies a delivery type and its credentials. Two optional metadata fields control visibility:
+
+| Field | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `owner` | *(absent)* | Username who created/owns this channel. Absent = admin-created. |
+| `private` | `false` | When `true`, only the owner can see and select this channel. |
+| `min_level` | `WARNING` | Minimum alert level this channel receives. |
+
+**Admin-created channels** (set in the config file or via the admin settings UI) are public by default — all users can select them:
+
+```yaml
+notification_channels:
+
+  pushover_ops:
+    type: pushover
+    token: your-app-token
+    user: your-user-key
+    min_level: WARNING
+
+  email_ops:
+    type: email
+    recipients: [ops@example.com]
+    sender: hbd@example.com
+    smtp_server: smtp.example.com
+    smtp_port: 587
+    smtp_user: hbd@example.com
+    smtp_password: secret
+    min_level: WARNING
+
+  matrix_oncall:
+    type: matrix
+    homeserver: https://matrix.example.org
+    access_token: syt_xxx
+    room_id: "!abc:matrix.example.org"
+    min_level: CRITICAL
+
+  sms_oncall:
+    type: sms_voipms
+    api_user: me@example.com
+    api_password: secret
+    did: "5551234567"
+    dst: "5559876543"
+    min_level: CRITICAL
+
+  signal_ops:
+    type: signal
+    cli_path: /usr/local/bin/signal-cli
+    user: +12025551234
+    recipient: +12025559999
+
+  mattermost_devops:
+    type: mattermost
+    host: mattermost.example.com
+    token: webhook-token
+    channel: devops-alerts
+    username: heartbeat-bot
+```
+
+**User-created channels** are written by authenticated users through the API or their profile page. They carry an `owner` field and optionally `private: true`:
+
+```yaml
+notification_channels:
+
+  alice_personal:
+    type: pushover
+    token: personal-token
+    user: personal-key
+    owner: alice          # created by alice
+    private: true         # only alice can see this channel
+```
+
+### Channel visibility
+
+| Channel | Who can see / select it |
+|---|---|
+| No `private` field (or `private: false`) | All users |
+| `private: true` | Only the `owner` |
+| Any channel | Admins always see everything |
+
+### Users with notification channels
+
+Each user lists which channels they receive notifications on. Users can manage their own selection from the profile page:
+
+```yaml
+users:
+  alice:
+    full_name: Alice Smith
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...
+    admin: true
+    notification_channels: [pushover_ops, email_ops]
+
+  bob:
+    full_name: Bob Jones
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...
+    notification_channels: [sms_oncall, matrix_oncall]
+```
+
+### Host access — owner and managers
+
+Notifications for a host go to its owner and all managers:
+
+```yaml
+hosts:
+  webserver01:
+    owner: alice             # receives all notifications for this host
+    managers: [bob]          # also receives notifications
+    threshold_config: default
+    watch: true              # bold in dashboard (cosmetic only)
+    dyndns: false
+
+  dbserver01:
+    owner: alice
+    managers: [bob]
+    threshold_config: database
+    dyndns: false
+```
+
+`watch: true` only affects display (bold name in the live dashboard). Notifications are now controlled entirely by owner/managers.
+
+## Channel Types
+
+### `min_level` filtering
+
+Every channel accepts an optional `min_level` field:
+
+| Value | Channels receive |
+|---|---|
+| `WARNING` (default) | WARNING, CRITICAL, RECOVER |
+| `CRITICAL` | CRITICAL only (and RECOVER) |
+
+`RECOVER` is always passed through — you don't want to miss a recovery.
+
+### pushover
+
+Sends push notifications via [Pushover](https://pushover.net). Includes title, body, and a clickable URL.
+
+```yaml
+type: pushover
+token: your-app-token     # Required: Pushover application token
+user: your-user-key       # Required: Recipient's user key
+min_level: WARNING
+```
+
+### email
+
+Sends via SMTP. Subject = title, body = message + URL on final line.
+
+```yaml
+type: email
+recipients: [ops@example.com, oncall@example.com]
+sender: hbd@example.com
+smtp_server: smtp.example.com
+smtp_port: 587             # 587 = STARTTLS (default), 465 = SSL
+smtp_user: hbd@example.com
+smtp_password: secret
+min_level: WARNING
+```
+
+### matrix
+
+Sends a formatted HTML message to a Matrix room via [matrix-nio](https://github.com/poljar/matrix-nio).
+
+```yaml
+type: matrix
+homeserver: https://matrix.example.org
+access_token: syt_xxx      # Bot account access token
+room_id: "!abc:matrix.example.org"
+min_level: WARNING
+```
+
+**Setup:**
+1. Create a bot Matrix account
+2. Obtain its access token (Element → Settings → Help & About → Access Token)
+3. Invite the bot to the target room and note the room ID
+
+### sms_voipms
+
+Sends SMS via the [voip.ms REST API](https://voip.ms/api/v1/rest.php). Message is truncated to 160 characters.
+
+```yaml
+type: sms_voipms
+api_user: me@example.com   # voip.ms account email
+api_password: secret       # voip.ms API password
+did: "5551234567"          # Your voip.ms DID (sending number)
+dst: "5559876543"          # Destination number
+min_level: CRITICAL
+```
+
+### signal
+
+Sends via [signal-cli](https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli).
+
+```yaml
+type: signal
+cli_path: /usr/local/bin/signal-cli
+user: +12025551234         # Your registered Signal number
+recipient: +12025559999    # Recipient number
+min_level: WARNING
+```
+
+**Setup:**
+```bash
+signal-cli -u +12025551234 register
+signal-cli -u +12025551234 verify CODE
+```
+
+### mattermost
+
+Sends via Mattermost incoming webhook. Message is formatted as Markdown.
+
+```yaml
+type: mattermost
+host: mattermost.example.com
+token: your-webhook-token
+channel: devops-alerts
+username: heartbeat-bot    # Optional: display name
+icon: https://…/icon.png   # Optional: bot icon URL
+min_level: WARNING
+```
+
+## Notification events
+
+| Source | Level | Title example | Body example |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Host overdue | CRITICAL | `[CRITICAL] webserver01` | `IPv4 overdue` |
+| Host recover | RECOVER | `[RECOVER] webserver01` | `IPv4 back after being overdue for 5:23` |
+| Host boot | INFO | `[INFO] webserver01` | `webserver01 booted` |
+| Host shutdown | INFO | `[INFO] webserver01` | `IPv4 shutdown` |
+| Threshold breach | WARNING/CRITICAL | `[CRITICAL] webserver01` | `cpu_percent = 95.2 (threshold: > 90.0)` |
+| Threshold reminder | CRITICAL | `[REMINDER/CRITICAL] webserver01` | `REMINDER (CRITICAL): … ongoing for 3600s` |
+| Connection issue | WARNING | `[WARNING] webserver01` | `new address detected …` |
+
+Reminder notifications (re-notify) are sent only for CRITICAL level alerts.
+
+## API reference
+
+### `send_notification(host_name, notif) -> dict`
+
+Main entry point. Dispatches to owner + managers.
+
+```python
+from hbd.server.notify import send_notification, Notification
+
+send_notification(
+    "webserver01",
+    Notification(
+        title="[CRITICAL] webserver01",
+        body="cpu_percent = 95.2 (threshold: > 90.0)",
+        level="CRITICAL",
+        url="https://hbd.example.com/plugins#webserver01",
+    ),
+)
+```
+
+Returns `{channel_name: bool}` for each channel dispatched.
+
+### `setup(cfg, loop=None)`
+
+Called once at startup from `main.py`. Pass the running asyncio event loop so Matrix sends work correctly.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**No notifications sent:**
+- Check that users are configured (`users:` section in yaml)
+- Check that the host has an `owner` or `managers` set
+- Check that users have `notification_channels` listed
+- Check that the channel names in user config match keys under `notification_channels:`
+- If a user can't select a channel, check whether it is `private: true` and owned by someone else
+
+**min_level filtering too aggressive:**
+- Default is `WARNING` — both WARNING and CRITICAL are sent
+- Set `min_level: WARNING` explicitly if you were expecting warnings but set CRITICAL
+
+**Matrix sends time out:**
+- Verify the access token is valid and the bot is in the room
+- `matrix-nio` must be installed: `pip install matrix-nio`
+
+**voip.ms SMS fails:**
+- Enable the API in your voip.ms account (Account → API)
+- Verify the DID is SMS-capable in your voip.ms account
+
+**Signal not found:**
+- Specify full `cli_path`
+- Run `signal-cli -u +NUMBER receive` to sync trust store
+
+**Email authentication failed:**
+- Use app-specific passwords for Gmail/Fastmail
+- Verify port: 587 for STARTTLS, 465 for SSL
+
+**Pushover `400` errors:**
+- Double-check `token` (app) and `user` (user key) — they are different values

+
+## Plugin Architecture
+
+Heartbeat's plugin system is designed to be simple yet powerful. Plugins are Python classes that inherit from one of the base plugin types and implement a few key methods.
+
+### Key Concepts
+
+- **Plugin Registry**: Central registry that manages all loaded plugins
+- **Plugin Loader**: Automatically discovers and loads plugins from the `hbd/plugins/` directory
+- **Plugin Types**: InfoPlugin (static data) and MonitorPlugin (periodic metrics)
+- **Async/Await**: All plugin methods are async for non-blocking operation
+
+## Plugin Types
+
+### InfoPlugin
+
+InfoPlugins collect static information that doesn't change frequently (OS version, hardware specs, etc.).
+
+- **Runs once** at startup (interval = 0)
+- **Cached** - data is collected once and reused
+- **Lightweight** - no periodic overhead
+
+**Use InfoPlugin for:**
+- Operating system details
+- Hardware information
+- Software versions
+- Configuration data
+- Static inventory
+
+### MonitorPlugin
+
+MonitorPlugins collect metrics that change over time (CPU usage, memory, network traffic).
+
+- **Runs periodically** based on configured interval
+- **Scheduled** - collected at regular intervals
+- **Dynamic** - captures changing system state
+
+**Use MonitorPlugin for:**
+- Resource usage (CPU, memory, disk, network)
+- Performance metrics
+- Counters and gauges
+- Time-series data
+
+## Creating a Plugin
+
+### Step 1: Choose Plugin Type
+
+Decide whether your plugin collects static information (InfoPlugin) or dynamic metrics (MonitorPlugin).
+
+### Step 2: Create Plugin File
+
+Create a new Python file in `hbd/plugins/` directory:
+
+```python
+"""
+My awesome plugin for Heartbeat.
+
+Brief description of what this plugin does.
+"""
+
+import logging
+from typing import Dict, Any, Optional
+
+# Import psutil or other dependencies if needed
+try:
+    import psutil
+except ImportError:
+    psutil = None
+
+from hbd.plugin import MonitorPlugin  # or InfoPlugin
+
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+
+class MyAwesomePlugin(MonitorPlugin):  # or InfoPlugin
+    """
+    One-line description of the plugin.
+    
+    Collects:

+        """
+        logger.info("My awesome plugin cleanup")
+
+
+# Plugin instance for automatic discovery
+plugin = MyAwesomePlugin
+```
+
+### Step 3: Test Your Plugin
+
+Create a test script to verify your plugin works:
+
+```python
+#!/usr/bin/env python3
+import asyncio
+import sys
+from pathlib import Path
+
+# Add parent directory to path
+sys.path.insert(0, str(Path(__file__).parent))
+
+from hbd.plugins.my_awesome_plugin import MyAwesomePlugin
+
+async def test():
+    # Create plugin instance
+    plugin = MyAwesomePlugin({'option1': 'test_value'})
+    
+    # Initialize
+    if not await plugin.initialize():
+        print("Failed to initialize")
+        return False
+    
+    # Collect data
+    data = await plugin.collect()
+    print(f"Collected data: {data}")
+    
+    # Cleanup
+    await plugin.cleanup()
+    
+    return True
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    success = asyncio.run(test())
+    sys.exit(0 if success else 1)
+```
+
+## Plugin Lifecycle
+
+Understanding the plugin lifecycle helps you implement plugins correctly:
+
+```
+1. Plugin Discovery
+   └─> Loader scans hbd/plugins/ directory
+   └─> Finds Python files (except those starting with _)
+   └─> Imports modules
+
+2. Plugin Instantiation
+   └─> Creates instance with configuration
+   └─> __init__() is called
+
+3. Plugin Initialization
+   └─> initialize() is called
+   └─> Plugin verifies dependencies, establishes connections
+   └─> Returns True/False for success/failure
+
+4. Plugin Registration
+   └─> If initialization succeeds, plugin is registered
+   └─> Plugin becomes active
+
+5. Data Collection
+   └─> For InfoPlugin: collect() called once after initialization
+   └─> For MonitorPlugin: collect() called periodically based on interval
+   └─> Data is sent to server via PLG message
+
+6. Plugin Shutdown
+   └─> cleanup() is called
+   └─> Plugin releases resources, closes connections
+```
+
+## Server-initiated InfoPlugin refresh
+
+When a heartbeat packet arrives from a host the server has no plugin data for (e.g. after a server restart), the server sets `request_update = 1` in the ACK reply. The client detects this flag and immediately re-runs all InfoPlugins — clearing their cached results first — then resends the data as PLG messages.
+
+This means InfoPlugin data will always reach the server as soon as possible without requiring a client restart. No action is needed from plugin authors: the framework handles cache invalidation and re-collection automatically.
+
+The lifecycle for this case looks like:
+
+```
+Server restarts, host reconnects
+   └─> hbd receives HTB with no existing plugin_data for host
+   └─> hbd sets request_update=1 in ACK
+
+Client receives ACK
+   └─> Detects request_update flag
+   └─> Clears _cache on every registered InfoPlugin
+   └─> Calls collect() on each InfoPlugin
+   └─> Sends fresh PLG messages to server
+```
+
+If you write an `InfoPlugin` with side effects in `_collect_info()` (opening connections, writing files, etc.), be aware it may be called more than once per client session when this mechanism triggers.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Plugin-Specific Configuration
+
+Plugins receive configuration through the `config` parameter in `__init__`:
+
+```python
+def __init__(self, config: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None):
+    super().__init__(config)
+    
+    # Access configuration with defaults
+    self.interval = self.config.get('interval', 60)
+    self.threshold = self.config.get('threshold', 80)
+    self.enabled_features = self.config.get('features', ['feature1', 'feature2'])
+```
+
+### Client Configuration File
+
+Users configure plugins in the client configuration YAML:
+
+```yaml
+plugins:
+  my_awesome_plugin:
+    enabled: true
+    interval: 120
+    option1: custom_value
+    option2: false
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Error Handling
+
+Always handle errors gracefully:
+
+```python
+async def collect(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:
+    try:
+        return await self._collect_metrics()
+    except Exception as e:
+        logger.error(f"Error collecting metrics: {e}")
+        return {"error": str(e)}
+```
+
+### 2. Logging
+
+Use appropriate log levels:
+
+```python
+logger.debug("Detailed information for debugging")
+logger.info("Normal operation messages")
+logger.warning("Warning messages for unusual but handled situations")
+logger.error("Error messages for failures")
+```
+
+### 3. Dependencies
+
+Check for optional dependencies:
+
+```python
+try:
+    import some_optional_library
+except ImportError:
+    some_optional_library = None
+
+# Later in __init__:
+if some_optional_library is None:
+    raise ImportError("some_optional_library is required")
+```
+
+### 4. Performance
+
+- Keep collection methods fast (< 1 second)
+- Use async/await for I/O operations
+- Cache expensive computations
+- Don't block the event loop
+
+### 5. Data Structure
+
+Return clean, structured data:
+
+```python
+{
+    'metric_name': value,
+    'nested_data': {
+        'sub_metric': value
+    },
+    'list_data': [item1, item2],
+    'timestamp': time.time()  # Optional timestamp
+}
+```
+
+### 6. Documentation
+
+Document your plugin thoroughly:
+
+- Class docstring with description and configuration
+- Method docstrings explaining purpose and return values
+- Inline comments for complex logic
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Simple InfoPlugin
+
+```python
+from hbd.plugin import InfoPlugin
+import platform
+
+class SimpleInfoPlugin(InfoPlugin):
+    """Collect basic system information."""
+    
+    name = "simple_info"
+    interval = 0  # InfoPlugin
+    
+    async def initialize(self):
+        return True
+    
+    async def collect(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:
+        return {
+            'hostname': platform.node(),
+            'system': platform.system(),
+            'python_version': platform.python_version()
+        }
+    
+    async def cleanup(self):
+        pass
+
+plugin = SimpleInfoPlugin
+```
+
+### Example 2: MonitorPlugin with State
+
+```python
+from hbd.plugin import MonitorPlugin
+import time
+
+class CounterPlugin(MonitorPlugin):
+    """Track a counter over time."""
+    
+    name = "counter"
+    interval = 30
+    
+    def __init__(self, config=None):
+        super().__init__(config)
+        self._counter = 0
+        self._start_time = time.time()
+    
+    async def initialize(self):
+        return True
+    
+    async def collect(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:
+        self._counter += 1
+        uptime = time.time() - self._start_time
+        
+        return {
+            'count': self._counter,
+            'uptime': uptime,
+            'rate': self._counter / uptime
+        }
+    
+    async def cleanup(self):
+        pass
+
+plugin = CounterPlugin
+```
+
+### Example 3: Plugin with External Command
+
+```python
+from hbd.plugin import MonitorPlugin
+import asyncio
+
+class CommandPlugin(MonitorPlugin):
+    """Execute external command and capture output."""
+    
+    name = "command_executor"
+    interval = 60
+    
+    def __init__(self, config=None):
+        super().__init__(config)
+        self.command = self.config.get('command', 'echo "no command"')
+    
+    async def initialize(self):
+        return True
+    
+    async def collect(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:
+        try:
+            process = await asyncio.create_subprocess_shell(
+                self.command,
+                stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,
+                stderr=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE
+            )
+            stdout, stderr = await asyncio.wait_for(
+                process.communicate(),
+                timeout=30
+            )
+            
+            return {
+                'exit_code': process.returncode,
+                'stdout': stdout.decode('utf-8'),
+                'stderr': stderr.decode('utf-8')
+            }
+        except Exception as e:
+            return {'error': str(e)}
+    
+    async def cleanup(self):
+        pass
+
+plugin = CommandPlugin
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Testing
+
+Create unit tests for your plugins:
+
+```python
+import unittest
+import asyncio
+
+class TestMyPlugin(unittest.TestCase):
+    def setUp(self):
+        self.plugin = MyAwesomePlugin({'option1': 'test'})
+    
+    def test_initialization(self):
+        result = asyncio.run(self.plugin.initialize())
+        self.assertTrue(result)
+    
+    def test_collection(self):
+        asyncio.run(self.plugin.initialize())
+        data = asyncio.run(self.plugin.collect())
+        
+        self.assertIsInstance(data, dict)
+        self.assertIn('metric1', data)
+        self.assertGreater(data['metric1'], 0)
+    
+    def tearDown(self):
+        asyncio.run(self.plugin.cleanup())
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    unittest.main()
+```
+
+### Integration Testing
+
+Test your plugin with the actual client:
+
+```bash
+# Create test configuration
+cat > test_config.yaml <<EOF
+server: localhost
+plugins:
+  my_awesome_plugin:
+    enabled: true
+    interval: 10
+    option1: test_value
+EOF
+
+# Run client in test mode
+python -m hbd.hbc -c test_config.yaml --verbose
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### My plugin isn't loading
+
+1. Check filename doesn't start with underscore
+2. Verify plugin class inherits from InfoPlugin or MonitorPlugin
+3. Check `initialize()` returns True
+4. Look for import errors in logs
+
+### Plugin loads but doesn't collect data
+
+1. Check `interval` is set correctly (0 for InfoPlugin, > 0 for MonitorPlugin)
+2. Verify `collect()` returns a dictionary
+3. Check for exceptions in `collect()` method
+4. Enable DEBUG logging to see detailed errors
+
+### Data isn't appearing on server
+
+1. Verify client is connected to server
+2. Check server logs for PLG message handling
+3. Verify returned data is JSON-serializable
+4. Check for large data sizes (may exceed UDP packet size)

+# User Management
+
+Heartbeat supports optional user accounts with role-based access control per host. When no users are configured the server runs in **unauthenticated mode** — all existing behaviour is unchanged.
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+Users are defined in the server config file. Each host can have an **owner**, zero or more **managers**, and zero or more **monitors**. A **default owner** catches any host that does not name an explicit owner.
+
+### Roles
+
+| Role | Inherits | Permissions |
+|------|----------|-------------|
+| **monitor** | — | View host status, plugin data, alerts; acknowledge alerts they were notified for |
+| **manager** | monitor | + Queue commands (`/c`), trigger DNS re-registration (`/n`), queue upgrades (`/u`); add/remove monitors |
+| **owner** | manager | + Drop host (`/d`); add/remove managers; transfer ownership; update host access |
+| **admin** *(flag)* | owner on all hosts | Full access to every host and the user list |
+
+`admin` is a flag on the user, not a per-host role. An admin user has owner-level access on every host without being listed as owner/manager/monitor.
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Defining users
+
+```yaml
+users:
+  andreas:
+    full_name: Andreas Wrede
+    avatar: /path/to/avatar.png   # file path, URL, or base64 data URI (optional)
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...   # generated with: hbd passwd andreas
+    admin: true                   # optional — grants server-wide owner access
+
+  bob:
+    full_name: Bob Smith
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...
+    notification_channels: [pushover_standard]   # channels bob has selected
+
+  carol:
+    full_name: Carol Jones
+    password: pbkdf2:sha256:...
+
+default_owner: andreas            # owns hosts with no explicit owner
+                                  # falls back to the first admin user if omitted
+```
+
+### Client-declared host ownership
+
+A host can declare its own owner directly in the hbc or hbc_mini client configuration. This is useful for hosts that are not listed in the server config, or during initial setup before a server-side config entry has been created.
+
+**`~/.hbc.yaml`** (hbc):
+```yaml
+owner: andreas
+```
+
+**`~/.hbc.json`** (hbc_mini):
+```json
+{ "owner": "andreas" }
+```
+
+When set, the value is included in the `os_info` plugin data sent to the server. The server applies it as `host.owner` the first time `os_info` arrives, provided no owner has been configured server-side for that host. Server-configured ownership always takes precedence.
+
+---
+
+### Assigning roles to hosts
+
+```yaml
+hosts:
+  webserver01:
+    owner: andreas
+    managers: [bob]
+    monitors: [carol]
+    threshold_config: default
+    watch: true
+    notification_channels: [pushover_standard]
+
+  unattended-host:              # no owner → owned by default_owner
+    threshold_config: default
+    watch: true
+```
+
+### Generating a password hash
+
+```bash
+hbd passwd andreas
+```
+
+Enter and confirm the password when prompted. Paste the printed hash into the config file under the user's `password` key.
+
+You can also generate a hash non-interactively from Python:
+
+```python
+from hbd.server.users import hash_password
+print(hash_password("mysecret"))
+```
+
+Passwords are stored as PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 hashes (260 000 iterations). No third-party libraries are required — only Python's standard `hashlib`.
+
+---
+
+## Authentication
+
+When at least one user is defined, every request must be authenticated. Unauthenticated requests to HTML pages are redirected to `/login`; unauthenticated API requests receive `401 Unauthorized`.
+
+### Browser login
+
+Navigate to any page — you will be redirected to `/login` automatically. After submitting valid credentials the server sets an `hbd_session` cookie (HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, 24 h lifetime). All subsequent requests, including JavaScript `fetch()` calls on the dashboards, carry the cookie automatically.
+
+To log out, visit `/logout`.
+
+### API / programmatic login
+
+```bash
+# Log in and capture the token
+TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50004/api/0/auth/login \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{"username":"andreas","password":"mysecret"}' | jq -r .token)
+
+# Use the token in subsequent requests
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" http://localhost:50004/api/0/hosts
+```
+
+The token is identical to the session cookie value — both mechanisms work simultaneously.
+
+```bash
+# Log out
+curl -s -X POST http://localhost:50004/api/0/auth/logout \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
+```
+
+---
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+### Authentication
+
+#### POST /api/0/auth/login
+Obtain a session token.
+
+**Request body:**
+```json
+{ "username": "andreas", "password": "mysecret" }
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{ "token": "<opaque-hex-token>", "username": "andreas" }
+```
+Also sets the `hbd_session` cookie for browser clients.
+
+**Status codes:** `200 OK`, `401 Unauthorized`, `404` (auth not configured)
+
+---
+
+#### POST /api/0/auth/logout
+Invalidate the current session.
+
+**Headers:** `Authorization: Bearer <token>` or cookie
+
+**Response:** `{ "success": true }`
+
+---
+
+### Users
+
+#### GET /api/0/users
+List all users. **Admin only.**
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+[
+  { "username": "andreas", "full_name": "Andreas Wrede", "avatar": "", "admin": true, "notification_channels": [] },
+  { "username": "bob",     "full_name": "Bob Smith",     "avatar": "", "admin": false, "notification_channels": ["pushover_standard"] }
+]
+```
+
+---
+
+#### GET /api/0/users/me
+Return the currently authenticated user's profile.
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{ "username": "carol", "full_name": "Carol Jones", "avatar": "", "admin": false, "notification_channels": [] }
+```
+
+---
+
+#### PUT /api/0/users/me
+Update the current user's profile. All fields are optional — send only what you want to change.
+
+**Update display name and avatar:**
+```json
+{ "full_name": "Carol Jones", "avatar": "/avatars/carol.png" }
+```
+
+**Change notification channel selection:**
+```json
+{ "notification_channels": ["pushover_ops", "email_ops"] }
+```
+Only channels visible to the user (public + own private) are accepted; others are silently dropped.
+
+**Change password:**
+```json
+{ "password": { "current": "oldpass", "new": "newpass" } }
+```
+Requires the correct current password. New password is hashed before storage.
+
+**Response:** `{"ok": true}`
+
+**Status codes:** `200 OK`, `400` (missing/invalid field), `401` (unauthenticated), `403` (wrong current password)
+
+---
+
+### Host Access
+
+#### GET /api/0/hosts/{hostname}/access
+Return owner/managers/monitors for a host. Requires at least **monitor** role.
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "owner": "andreas",
+  "managers": ["bob"],
+  "monitors": ["carol"]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+#### PUT /api/0/hosts/{hostname}/access
+Update owner/managers/monitors. Requires **owner** role or admin.
+
+**Request body** (all fields optional):
+```json
+{
+  "owner": "bob",
+  "managers": ["carol"],
+  "monitors": []
+}
+```
+
+Changes take effect immediately in memory. They are not written back to the config file — reload (`SIGHUP`) will re-apply config values. To make changes permanent, update the config file.
+
+---
+
+## Host visibility
+
+When users are configured, `GET /api/0/hosts` only returns hosts the authenticated user has at least monitor access to. Admins see all hosts.
+
+---
+
+## Config reload
+
+On `SIGHUP`, the server reloads the config file, re-loads the user registry, and re-applies `owner`/`managers`/`monitors` from config to all known hosts. Existing sessions remain valid after a reload.
+
+---
+
+## No-auth mode
+
+If `users:` is absent or empty, the server starts in **unauthenticated mode**:
+
+- No login required — all pages and API endpoints are accessible without credentials.
+- All permission checks pass unconditionally.
+- `/login`, `/logout`, and the auth/user API endpoints return `404`.
+
+This preserves full backwards compatibility with existing deployments.
+
+---
+
+## Security notes
+
+- Session tokens are 64-character cryptographically random hex strings (`secrets.token_hex(32)`).
+- Sessions expire after 24 hours (configurable via `users_mod.SESSION_TTL`).
+- Cookies are `HttpOnly` and `SameSite=Lax` — they are not accessible to JavaScript and are not sent on cross-site requests.
+- The HTTP API does not yet enforce TLS. For production use, place hbd behind a TLS-terminating reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy, etc.) or enable WSS.

+"""Ping Monitor Plugin for Heartbeat.
+
+Pings one or more hosts and reports round-trip time.  Results are sent as
+plugin metrics so the server-side threshold system can raise WARNING/CRITICAL
+alerts using the same RTT threshold configuration format used for heartbeat RTT.
+
+Example configuration in ~/.hbc.yaml (or the plugins section of ~/.hb.yaml):
+
+```yaml
+plugins:
+  ping_monitor:
+    interval: 60          # ping every 60 seconds (default)
+    count: 3              # ICMP packets per ping run (default 3)
+    timeout: 5            # seconds before a host is considered unreachable (default 5)
+    hosts:
+      - 8.8.8.8
+      - 192.168.1.1
+```
+
+Reported metrics per host (metric key uses the hostname with dots/colons replaced
+by underscores so it is a valid identifier):
+
+  ping.<hostname>.rtt_avg   – average RTT in ms  (float, or inf if unreachable)
+  ping.<hostname>.rtt_min   – minimum RTT in ms
+  ping.<hostname>.rtt_max   – maximum RTT in ms
+  ping.<hostname>.loss      – packet loss percentage (0–100)
+
+Server-side threshold config example:
+
+```yaml
+threshold_configs:
+  default:
+    thresholds:
+      ping_monitor:
+        8_8_8_8_rtt_avg:

+# 4. Overall Status:
+#    - The plugin reports the worst status from all commands

+#    - Debian/Ubuntu: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/

+#    Arch Linux:    sudo pacman -S monitoring-plugins

-# Heartbeat Daemon (hbd) ✅
-
-A lightweight daemon that listens for UDP heartbeat messages and acts on them: keeps host state, optionally updates DNS records via `nsupdate`, forwards messages to WebSocket clients, and sends notifications (email, Pushover, Mattermost, Signal). It is a refactor of a previously monolithic script into a modular Python package (`hbd`).
-
----
-
-## 📌 Features
-
-- Receive and parse heartbeat datagrams (text or zlib-compressed) ✅
-- Maintain host state and detect up/down transitions ✅
-- Queue DNS updates via `nsupdate` and run them in a background thread ✅
-- WebSocket API for live updates (hosts & messages) ✅
-- Notification pipeline (email, Pushover, Mattermost, Signal) ✅
-- Modular codebase suitable for unit testing and CI ✅

-
-## ⚙️ Quickstart
-
-Prerequisites:
-- Python 3.10+ (project uses language features from recent Python) 
-- `nsupdate` (for DNS updates) if using dynamic DNS
-
-Install dependencies (recommended into a venv):
-
-```bash
-python3 -m venv .venv
-source .venv/bin/activate
-python -m pip install --upgrade pip
-python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
-# for development/testing tools
-python -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
-```
-
-Run the daemon (example):
-
-```bash
-# run with default config lookup (~/.hb.yaml)
-PYTHONPATH=. hbd -c .hb.yaml -f -v
-```
-
-You can also run it directly via the package entrypoint after installation:
-
-```bash
-python -m hbd.cli -c /path/to/config.yaml
-```
-
-## 🐞 Debugging in VS Code
-
-This repository includes a ready-to-use `.vscode/launch.json` with configurations to run or attach the VS Code debugger to `hbd`.
-
-- Ensure the **Python** extension is installed and select the project `.venv` as the interpreter (bottom-left of VS Code).
-- Use **F5** and pick one of these configurations from the Run view:
-  - **Python: Run hbd (module)** — runs `hbd.cli` as a module and sets `PYTHONPATH` to the workspace root (recommended).
-  - **Python: Run hbd with debugpy (listen)** — launches `debugpy` and `hbd` together; useful when you want the process to listen for a debugger.
-  - **Python: Attach (localhost:5678)** — attach the debugger to a running process started with `debugpy`.
-
-To start `hbd` manually and wait for the debugger to attach, run:
-
-```bash
-PYTHONPATH=. python -m debugpy --listen 5678 --wait-for-client -m hbd.cli -c .hb.yaml -f -v
-```
-
-Set breakpoints in modules such as `hbd/udp.py`, `hbd/dns.py`, or `hbd/server.py`, and use the **Attach** configuration to connect. Use `justMyCode: false` if you need to step into third-party code.
-
-
----
-
-## 🛠 Configuration
-
-`hbd` reads YAML configuration (optional). If `PyYAML` is not installed, built-in defaults are used. Example configuration keys (see `hbd/config.py`):
-
-- `hb_port`: UDP port to listen for heartbeats (default: 50003)
-- `hbd_port`: internal control port (default: 50004)
-- `hbd_host`: bind address for HTTP/WSS
-- `pickfile`: path for persisted state
-- `logfile`: path to log file
-- `logfmt`: `text` or `msg`
-- `pushsrv`: push service (`pushover`|`mattermost`|`all`)
-- `interval` / `grace`: heartbeat timing configuration
-- `dyndomains`: list of dyndomains to update via `nsupdate`
-- `nsupdate_bin`: path to nsupdate binary
-
-Example `.hb.yaml` (minimal):
-
-```yaml
-hbd_host: 0.0.0.0
-hbd_port: 50004
-dyndomains:
-  - example.com
-nsupdate_bin: /usr/bin/nsupdate
-pushsrv: pushover
-```
-
-> Tip: `config.DEFAULTS` in `hbd/config.py` contains the canonical defaults and accepted configuration keys.

-
-## 🔧 Architecture & Modules
-
-- `hbd.proto` — serialization/deserialization of heartbeat messages (supports compressed payloads)
-- `hbd.udp` — UDP parsing and `handle_datagram` implementation (main state machine)
-- `hbd.dns` — `create_nsupdate_payload`, `nsupdate`, and a background DNS thread (`start_dns_thread`)
-- `hbd.notify` — email and push notification helpers
-- `hbd.ws` — WebSocket server and thread-safe broadcast helpers
-- `hbd.http` — HTTP handler factory for the status UI/API
-- `hbd.utils` — small utility helpers (`shortname`, `dur`, `initlog`)
-- `hbd.cli` — CLI entrypoint and argument parsing
-- `hbd.server` — async orchestration to run UDP/HTTP/WSS components
-
-This modular layout makes the code easier to test and maintain.
-
----
-
-## 🧪 Testing & Dev
-
-Tests are implemented using `unittest` and additional tests rely on `pytest` if you prefer. To run tests locally without installing anything beyond the dev requirements:
-
-```bash
-# with project root on PYTHONPATH
-PYTHONPATH=. python -m unittest discover -v
-# or with pytest if installed
-pytest -q
-```
-
-Developer tooling included:
-- `pyproject.toml` — project metadata and dependencies
-- `requirements-dev.txt` — dev/test dependencies
-- `tox.ini` — convenience wrappers for running tests, lint, and mypy
-
-To run linters and type checks locally:
-
-```bash
-# after installing dev deps
-tox -e lint
-tox -e mypy
-```
-
----
-
-## 🚀 Running in production
-
-- Use your system service manager (systemd, launchd, etc.) to run `hbd` in the background.
-- Ensure `nsupdate` and necessary credentials are available for dynamic DNS updates.
-- Configure TLS for WSS if you enable secure websockets.
-
-> Note: The project contains a small example for obtaining DNS-verified certs (certbot with RFC2136) — see earlier commit history or ask me to re-add the example to this README if you want it documented here.
