- Replace legacy utils/run_once.yml with the new helpers utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml
- Introduce utils/compose_up.yml to ensure docker-compose stacks are up and to flush handlers safely without coupling to run-once flags
- Migrate all affected roles (desk-*, dev-*, sys-ctl-*, sys-svc-*, web-app-*, web-svc-*, util-*) to the new run-once helpers
- Rework sys-svc-msmtp to auto-load Mailu once per deploy, check reachability, and reuse the running stack instead of requiring multiple playbook passes
- Adjust web-app-mailu to integrate cert deployment, handler flushing, and run-once handling so Mailu is fully initialized in a single deploy
- Improve Matomo, CDN, logout and CSP/health-check related roles to cooperate with the new compose_up / once_* pattern
- Simplify alarm/backup/timer/service orchestration (sys-ctl-alm-*, sys-bkp-provider, sys-timer-cln-bkps, etc.) by moving run-once logic into dedicated 01_core.yml files
- Update integration tests so utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml are recognised as valid run-once providers, keeping the global run_once_* guarantees consistent
- Align frontend injection and service dependencies so Mastodon- and Mailu-related services can be brought up coherently within a single deployment cycle rather than several iterations
- Introduce dynamic SYSTEMCTL_ALARM_COMPOSER_SUBSERVICES based on Mailu token and MODE_RESET
- Prevent inclusion of sys-ctl-alm-email when disabled
- Add system_service_is_template flag to avoid state-setting on template services
- Update notifications to reload daemon for @ template units
- Align msmtp execution conditions

• Rename: 02_create-user.yml → 02_manage_user.yml; 03_create-token.yml → 03a_manage_user_token.yml + 03b_create_user_token.yml
• Only (re)run sys-svc-msmtp when no-reply token exists; set run_once_sys_svc_msmtp=true in 01_core
• Reset by setting run_once_sys_svc_msmtp=false after creating no-reply token; then include sys-svc-msmtp
• Harden when-guards (no '{{ }}' in when, safe .get lookups)
• Minor formatting and failed_when readability

- Fixed incorrect filter usage in docker-compose handler (proper use of | path_join).
- Improved LetsEncrypt template by joining paths with filenames instead of appending manually.
- Enhanced sys-svc-msmtp task with an additional condition to only run if no-reply mailu_token exists.
- Updated Keycloak meta to depend on Mailu (ensuring token generation before setup).
- Refactored Keycloak import path variables to use path_join consistently.
- Adjusted Mailu meta dependency to run after Matomo instead of Keycloak.
