v2.18.0 - Multi-protocol deployment probes + deploy-hook reliability

on GitHub

Deployment verification grows beyond HTTPS-on-443, and the deploy-hook pipeline closes two gaps that left scheduled renewals undeployed and a dashboard counter stuck at zero.

Features

• Multi-protocol deployment probes with per-certificate port (#328): the "is this cert actually deployed?" probe now supports https-tls, plain tls, and smtp-starttls, with the port and protocol configurable per certificate from a new Probe tab in Settings. The backend probes the real service (including the SMTP STARTTLS upgrade) and the browser fallback is skipped for the non-HTTPS protocols. The probe's TLS minimum version is pinned to 1.2. Thanks to Christophe Kyvrakidis.
• Tunnel the deployment probe through an outbound HTTP proxy (#326): on a host that can only reach the internet via an HTTP proxy, the raw-socket probe always reported "Unreachable" even when the target was up. It now honours HTTPS_PROXY/NO_PROXY, tunnelling the TCP leg with HTTP CONNECT (basic proxy auth supported) and running the TLS handshake over the tunnel to the configured per-cert port, so the real peer certificate is still compared. Pure stdlib, no new dependency. Thanks to Hiep Ho Minh.

Fixes

• Scheduled auto-renewals now fire deploy hooks (#329): the manual/API path published certificate_renewed via the issuance executor, but the scheduler called the certificate manager directly with no event bus, so a background renewal updated the cert on disk yet never notified the deployer — the hook never ran and the live endpoint kept serving the old certificate. The scheduler now publishes the same event after a successful renewal; publishing stays out of the renewal routine to avoid double-firing the manual path, and a notification failure never demotes a successful renewal to a failure. Reported by SpeeDFireCZE.
• "Deployed" dashboard counter stuck at zero (#324): the counter looked up deployment-status-<domain> but the badges render as deployment-status-<domainId>-<role>, so the lookup never matched and the stat card stayed at 0. It now mirrors the badge id and reads the authoritative backend badge. Reported by SpeeDFireCZE.
• Deploy-hook errors are now visible from the Activity page (#332): a failing hook (e.g. exit code 127) showed only "exit code N" and clicking the entry bounced to the certificate page. The error now carries an stderr snippet, the full stdout/stderr is stored in the audit detail, and the entry opens a popup with the full output; deploy entries no longer link to the certificate page. Thanks to Christophe Kyvrakidis.
• Renewal timestamp now reaches the storage backend (#282): renewed_at was written to metadata after the certificate had already been uploaded, so the storage backend persisted metadata without it. The metadata update now happens before the upload. Thanks to luksiol.
