- Extended kc_force_attrs in tasks/main.yml to source 'publicClient',
'serviceAccountsEnabled' and 'frontchannelLogout' directly from
KEYCLOAK_DICTIONARY_REALM for consistency with import definitions.
- Updated default.json.j2 import template to set 'publicClient' to true.
- Public client mode is required so the frontend API of role 'web-app-desktop'
can handle login/logout flows without client secret.

- Render userObjectClasses via `tojson` (and trim) to avoid invalid control
characters and ensure valid realm import parsing.
- Introduce KEYCLOAK_LDAP_USER_OBJECT_CLASSES in vars; exclude `posixAccount`
for Keycloak’s LDAP config while keeping it for Ansible-managed UNIX users.
- Update UserStorageProvider template to use the new variable.
Rationale:
Keycloak must not require `posixAccount` on every LDAP user. We keep
`posixAccount` structural for Ansible provisioning, but filter it out for
Keycloak to prevent sync/import errors on entries without POSIX attributes.

- roles/web-app-keycloak/vars/main.yml

- Improved get_service_name filter plugin (clearer suffix handling, consistent var names).
- Added MODE_ASSERT flag to optionally execute validation/assertion tasks.
- Fixed systemd unit handling: consistent use of %I instead of %i, correct escaping of instance names.
- Unified on_failure behavior and alarm composer scripts.
- Cleaned up redundant logging, handlers, and debug config.
- Strengthened sys-service template resolution with assert (only active when MODE_ASSERT).
- Simplified timer and suffix handling with get_service_name filter.
- Hardened sensitive tasks with no_log.
- Added conditional asserts across roles (Keycloak, DNS, Mailu, Discourse, etc.).
These changes improve consistency, safety, and validation across the automation stack.

- Fixed incorrect handling of RBAC group configuration (moved from OIDC claims into dedicated RBAC variable set).
- Unified RBAC group usage across applications (LAM, pgAdmin, phpLDAPadmin, phpMyAdmin, YOURLS).
- Replaced old 'KEYCLOAK_OIDC_RBAC_SCOPE_NAME' with dedicated 'KEYCLOAK_RBAC_GROUP_*' variables.
- Updated OAuth2 Proxy configuration to use 'RBAC.GROUP.CLAIM'.
- Refactored Keycloak role task structure:
* Renamed and reorganized task files for clarity ('_update.yml', '02_cleanup.yml', etc.).
* Introduced meta and dependency handling separation.
- Cleaned up Keycloak config defaults and recaptcha placeholders.
Replace 01_import.yml with 01_initialize.yml (KEYCLOAK_HOST_IMPORT_DIR)
Add generic 02_update.yml (kcadm updater for clients/components)
- Resolve ID → read current → merge (kc_merge_path optional)
- Preserve immutable fields; support kc_force_attrs
Update tasks/main.yml:
- Readiness via KEYCLOAK_MASTER_REALM_URL; kcadm login
- Merge LDAP component config from Realm when KEYCLOAK_LDAP_ENABLED
- Update client settings incl. frontchannel.logout.url
realm.json.j2: include ldap.json in UserStorageProvider
ldap.json.j2: use KEYCLOAK_LDAP_* vars for bindDn/credential/connectionUrl
vars/main.yml: add KEYCLOAK_* URLs/dirs and KEYCLOAK_DICTIONARY_REALM(_RAW)
docker-compose.yml.j2: mount KEYCLOAK_HOST_IMPORT_DIR
Cleanup: remove 02_update_client_redirects.yml, 03_update-ldap-bind.yml, 04_ssh_public_key.yml; drop obsolete config flag; formatting
Note: redirectUris/webOrigins ordering may still cause changed=true; consider sorting for stability in a follow-up.
- Removed all static 'id' fields from realm.json.j2, ldap.json.j2, and client.json.j2
- Replaced 'desktop-secret' with correct 'client-secret' authenticator type
- Standardized Jinja filters to use 'to_json' consistently
- Corrected defaultClientScopes entry from 'web-app-origins' to built-in 'web-origins'
- Verified LDAP mapper definitions and optional realm role mapping
- Ensured realm.json.j2 contains only required scopes

- Replace KEYCLOAK_KCADM_PATH with KEYCLOAK_EXEC_KCADM consistently
- Externalize client.json to separate Jinja2 template and include it in realm.json
- Simplify LDAP bind update to use explicit KEYCLOAK_LDAP_* vars
- Add async/poll support for long-running kcadm updates
- Restructure vars/main.yml: clearer grouping (General, Docker, Server, Update, LDAP, API)
- Compute redirectUris/webOrigins centrally in vars
- Align post.logout.redirect.uris handling with playbook

Switch to command:argv to avoid shell quoting and argument splitting issues.
Pass -s config values as JSON arrays via to_json, fixing previous errors: Cannot parse the JSON / failed at splitting arguments.
Also reconcile config.connectionUrl from ldap.server.uri.
Source desired values strictly from ldap.* (no computed defaults) and assert their presence.
Keep operation idempotent by reading current values and updating only on change.
Minor refactor: build reusable kcadm_argv_base and expand client state extraction.
