Nine references across seven modules named ':latest'. ADR 0006 forbids it and
the host refuses it by name — and the refusal had never fired, because the lab
pushed every image into its own registry and rewrote each reference to the
digest it had just assigned. Deleting that registry made these the only
manifests the host would now reject (novox/hq 04-ISSUES/039).
The digests are what each tag resolves to today, read from the registry that
serves them.
This is a stopgap and should be said as one: a digest written into a repository
is wrong the moment anybody rebuilds, which is precisely why the design has the
repository name artifacts and the mesh hold digests. Until something builds and
publishes, a digest that is stale is still better than a tag that silently moves.

Piece A + B of ADR 0056, completing the internal-CA work in ff01ada.
Selectable issuer. acme-ca is now a role two providers can satisfy: step-ca
(internal CA) or the new public-acme (a fact-only module, no container/listen)
that serves Let's Encrypt production. A mesh assigns one or the other to satisfy
route-proxy's `requires: acme-ca`.
One directory shape for both. A provider serves the ACME directory's parts the
way the mesh already models any reachable service -- an address (`at`), a `port`
and a `path` -- and route-proxy composes `https://<at>:<port><path>`. step-ca
lets the mesh fill `at` (its node) and `port` (its single listen) and serves only
`path`; public-acme, not being a mesh service, serves all three (overriding `at`
with the public host). Same composition either way.
Empty root means the system trust store. Both providers serve `root`: step-ca
the operator root PEM (settled per mesh), public-acme an empty string. route-proxy
writes it to the CA bundle file unconditionally; the binary now reads an empty
bundle as "the root is already trusted by the OS" and falls back to system roots
(examples/route-proxy/main.go, committed on the mesh-control ADR-0056 branch).
step-ca inits from the operator's root. The operator's root cert, root key and
root-key password are mounted at the smallstep entrypoint's default init paths
(/run/secrets/root_ca.crt, root_ca_key, root_ca_key_password) with the matching
DOCKER_STEPCA_INIT_*_FILE vars, so `step ca init` adopts the operator's root
instead of self-generating one -- the CA that signs is the CA route-proxy trusts.
Route names are labels, not FQDNs. Every routed module now contributes a `label`
(the leftmost subdomain) instead of a full public hostname; the node's public
domain composes the name. Apex (novox.be) is left as a full name -- composeName
has no empty-label/apex convention yet (mesh-control follow-up).

Add a `route` contribution (requires/contributes/binds) to every web app so
each gets a Host-routed public name via route-proxy, mirroring the
de-spiegel/only-office pattern:
- novox: gitea, keycloak, nextcloud, umami, invoicing, verdaccio, registry,
and mailu (single mail.novox.be -> 7080; admin/webmail/api ride that port).
- ace: grafana, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, bazarr, ombi, tautulli, jackett,
nodered, searxng, home-assistant, bookshelf, baserow.
Split photos so its three sites each get a name: photos keeps server +
admin-client (photos.novox.be), and new photos-eef (eef.novox.be) and
photos-filip (filip.novox.be) modules carry the client sites.
The production FQDN stays the literal default; a per-node .incus name is a
settings override applied where the mesh runs, not a manifest hardcoding.
