Moves the SYSTEM_EMAIL_* resolution logic out of group_vars/all/03_email.yml
into a dedicated Ansible lookup plugin, so every role template reads outgoing
mail settings via lookup('email') (global) or lookup('email', application_id)
(per-app). Per-app compose.services.email is merged on top of the resolved
defaults; SYSTEM_EMAIL_* variables remain usable as an inventory escape hatch.
Also splits the email docs: administrator-facing configuration stays under
docs/administration/configuration/, plugin contract and extension rules move
to docs/contributing/design/services/email.md. services.md is relocated to
services/base.md so the services/ subtree can host per-service design pages.

Removes the placeholder interpreter (utils/dict_renderer.py) in favor of
standard {{ lookup('config', ...) }} / {{ lookup('domain', ...) }} calls
inside role configs, and eliminates the `domains` set_fact stage in
tasks/stages/01_constructor.yml by introducing a cached get_merged_domains
helper plus a new `domains` lookup plugin (full map + by-app subtree).
The `domain` lookup no longer depends on a pre-computed `domains` variable;
it delegates to get_merged_domains, which respects inventory-level overrides
from both `applications:` (authoritative canonical source) and `domains:`
(direct override map). Caching mirrors the applications pipeline — keyed on
(roles_dir, variables signature, override fingerprint) with a re-entry guard.
Replaced `{{ domains[app_id] }}` / `{{ domains }}` usages across web-app-matrix,
-bluesky, -mastodon, -peertube, -keycloak, test-e2e-playwright, and
group_vars. Added two performance tests for lookup('domains') mirroring the
applications cache assertions (≥50x warm-to-hot ratio, 120s cold budget).
Introduce a single global flag in group_vars/all/10_networks.yml and wire
the previously hardcoded IPv6 settings in nextcloud, bigbluebutton, and
matrix through it. Matches the host-level `make disable-ipv6` policy so
containers no longer stall on AAAA-first lookups (e.g. Nextcloud's
DnsPinMiddleware) while keeping a single knob to flip when v6 is wanted.

Covers CSP header enforcement, canonical-domain surfacing, the dashboard
→ Element OIDC flow for administrator and biber, and a multi-context
direct message exchange between administrator and biber.
The signIn helper walks Element's long-tail SSO states (rc_login rate
limit, rust_crypto "Skip verification", Synapse first-run consent page,
transient #/login bounce). The DM test joins biber before admin sends
the marker so the megolm key is shared for the live (not historical)
message. Full spec (4 tests) passes in ~17m against a reuse-kept deploy.

`# nocheck: url` is not valid JSON — the markers leaked into the rendered
config.json and Element crashed with "Expected double-quoted property name
in JSON at position 536". Switch to the Jinja-comment form
`{# nocheck: url #}` which is still recognized by the URL reachability
checker (see tests/external/repository/test_urls_reachable.py) but is
stripped during template rendering.
Also revert the scalar-staging.*/matrix-client.* hostnames rewritten in
750c110f4 to non-existent `.element.io` variants. Those hosts had no DNS
records and the `nocheck` marker was silently hiding the breakage. Values
now match Element's upstream apps/web/config.sample.json.

Replaces inline `applications`/`users` merging with dedicated lookup
plugins and runtime hydration. Introduces `add_csp_hash` filter,
integrates sort into `find_dock_val_by_bkp_entr`, splits the Keycloak
one-shot realm import into `05a_realm_import_run.yml`, and fixes the
Mastodon administrator task YAML. Removes obsolete `csp_hashes` filter,
`sys-token-store` Jinja filter, and empty CLI setup modules.

- Rename lookup plugin from `docker` to `container`
- Switch all lookups from `lookup('docker', ...)` to `lookup('container', ...)`
- Normalize compose file keys:
- docker_compose → compose
- docker_compose_override → compose_override
- docker_compose_ca_override → compose_ca_override
- Centralize compose path resolution via docker_paths_utils
- Update compose_file_args to always derive paths from DIR_COMPOSITIONS
- Align all roles, templates, and vars with container/compose naming

Replace usages of the get_app_conf filter with the config lookup plugin
across roles and templates. Adjust quoting where required to keep YAML
and Jinja syntax valid. No functional changes intended.
https://chatgpt.com/share/69860678-cef8-800f-8402-7fe6231fdc2d
The get_app_conf() helper no longer requires an explicit third
parameter to enable application-specific lookups. All templates,
tasks, and vars have been updated to rely on the new default behavior
by removing the redundant `True` argument.
This simplifies usage, improves readability, and enforces a consistent
API across Jinja2 templates and Ansible logic.

The TLS lookup has been renamed from `tls_resolve` to `tls` to better
reflect its responsibility as a strict TLS state resolver.
This refactor updates all usages across the codebase, including:
- lookup plugins and internal helpers
- roles, vars, tasks, and templates
- tests, stubs, and error messages
- documentation and changelog references
Behavior, lookup API, and semantics remain unchanged.

Remove implicit docker_compose variable usage and resolve all docker paths
(files, directories, env) via lookup('docker', application_id).
This prevents scope leakage, centralizes path resolution, and makes docker
context deterministic across roles and handlers.

- Remove deprecated filter_plugins/tls.py and all dependent filters
- Introduce strict lookup plugin lookup_plugins/tls_resolve.py as single TLS authority
- Migrate all roles, templates, vars, and tasks to use tls_resolve (protocols, ports, URLs, cert paths)
- Enforce explicit TLS context (domains, applications, TLS_ENABLED, TLS_MODE)
- Support letsencrypt and self_signed with SAN handling and per-app overrides
- Update TLS provider roles to assert resolver state instead of setting facts
- Add comprehensive unit tests for tls_resolve lookup
https://chatgpt.com/share/6972b49b-b074-800f-a323-dd9fe69d02eb
with explicit per-application TLS resolution.
Key changes:
- Introduce sys-front-tls-layer as the single TLS abstraction
- Centralize certificate paths via TLS_CERT_FILE / TLS_KEY_FILE / TLS_CA_FILE
- Replace sys-svc-letsencrypt SSL templates with generic TLS layer includes
- Add tls_* Jinja filters (enabled, mode, protocol, port, websocket)
- Resolve TLS mode per application (letsencrypt | self_signed | off)
- Remove implicit defaults and WEB_* globals to fail fast on misconfiguration
- Support self-signed certificates with SAN awareness
- Make TLS behavior explicit and consistent across all roles
This decouples application logic from certificate providers and
allows switching TLS flavor without touching app roles.

OpenResty failed to start with:
no "ssl_certificate" is defined for the "listen ... ssl" directive
Cause:
The Matrix OpenResty vhost was still generating `listen ... ssl` directives
even when TLS was disabled, while no ssl_certificate was configured.
Fix:
- Make Matrix federation listen directives fully TLS-aware
- Ensure no `ssl` flags are rendered when TLS is disabled (CI / Docker-in-Docker)
- Keep federation port usable in HTTP-only test environments
This fixes OpenResty validation errors in CI and Docker-in-Docker setups.

Refactor proxy/webserver configuration variables to a consistent webserver_* naming scheme across roles. Replace legacy variables like proxy_extra_configuration, client_max_body_size, vhost_flavour, location_ws and ws_port with webserver_extra_configuration, webserver_client_max_body_size, webserver_vhost_flavour, webserver_websocket_location and webserver_websocket_port. Update NGINX vhost and location templates (html, upload, ws, basic, ws_generic) as well as callers (sys-front-inj-all, sys-stk-front-proxy, various web-app-* and web-svc-* roles) to use the new naming.
Tighten docker-compose Git repository handling by making docker_git_repository_pull depend on docker_git_repository_address being defined, a string and non-empty. This avoids accidental Git operations when the repository address is unset or of the wrong type.
Refactor the BigBlueButton role structure and fix deployment bugs: introduce 01_core.yml to orchestrate docker/proxy setup, database seeding, websocket map deployment, docker-compose overrides and admin/bootstrap logic in a single once-executed entrypoint. Rename supporting task files (02_docker-compose.yml, 03_administrator.yml, 04_dependencies.yml) and update tasks/main.yml to delegate via include_tasks with run_once_web_app_bigbluebutton. Improve Greenlight admin creation behavior by treating the 'Email has already been taken' error as a non-fatal, unchanged outcome and running user:set_admin_role as a fallback, both for the primary password and the OIDC starred-password path.
Also standardize vhost flavour selection for services like Mailu, Discourse, CDN, Collabora, Coturn, OnlyOffice, Simpleicons and web-svc-logout by explicitly passing webserver_vhost_flavour where needed and aligning client_max_body_size and websocket configuration with the new webserver_* variables.

Unify reverse proxy handling across apps via sys-stk-front-proxy and cleanly separate internal docker nginx configs from external vhosts.
Changes:
- docker-compose: use with_first_found for optional env and docker-compose.override files so roles can provide either a template or a static file without noisy 'Could not find or access' failures.
- sys-stk-front-proxy: remove front_proxy_domain_conf_src and switch nginx vhost rendering to with_first_found over app-specific proxy.conf.j2 and the generic roles/sys-svc-proxy vhost flavour; keep health-check and handler logic unchanged.
- web-app-nextcloud: migrate to sys-stk-full-stateful (front proxy + DB + docker), move internal nginx config to docker.conf.j2 under the volume path, and rename host.conf.j2 to proxy.conf.j2 for the external vhost.
- web-app-magento: rename nginx.conf.j2 to docker.conf.j2 and update the runtime template task accordingly to make the intent (internal nginx) explicit.
- web-app-matrix: rename nginx.conf.j2 to synapse.conf.j2 and adjust the webserver task to use the new template name for the synapse vhost.
- web-app-bridgy-fed & web-app-flowise: pass domain and http_port explicitly when including sys-stk-front-proxy so the front stack has all required context.
- web-svc-cdn/file/html: replace direct sys-stk-front-base + sys-util-csp-cert + nginx.conf.j2 handling with sys-stk-front-proxy and proxy.conf.j2, relying on the shared front-stack for TLS/CSP/vHost wiring.
- web-svc-collabora: drop the direct nginx.conf.j2 vhost generation and rename it to proxy.conf.j2 so it is picked up by sys-stk-front-proxy like other services.
- web-opt-rdr-domains: rename redirect.domain.nginx.conf.j2 to redirect-domain.conf.j2 and adjust the task for clearer and more consistent naming.
