Three coordinated fixes for the System Overview widget:
1. routes/monitoring.js — flatten getAllStats() shape from
{current:{cpu:{percent},memory:{percent}}} to {cpu,memory,memoryUsage}
so the widget's Number() coercion actually produces numbers, not NaN.
Skill reference: references/totp-and-system-overview-pitfalls.md §3.
2. routes/health.js — add summary block to /health-checks/status response.
Widget looks for {healthy, unhealthy, total} but only per-service objects
existed. Permissive on healthy side (up|healthy|online), strict on
unhealthy (down|unhealthy|offline|error); anything else counted as
unknown. Same skill §3 reference.
3. middleware.js — add /api/v1/monitoring/stats to PUBLIC_ROUTES and the
rate-limit skip list. The widget polls it every 5s from the dashboard;
cookie-auth works but listing it explicitly makes it future-proof
against auth-cookie expiry and prevents per-second 429s.
End-to-end test (unauthenticated):
GET /api/v1/monitoring/stats -> {cpu: 8.71, memory: 0.37, ...}
GET /api/v1/health-checks/status -> {summary: {healthy:11, unhealthy:4, total:15}}
- health.js: replace magic number 5000 with TIMEOUTS.HTTP_DEFAULT (twice)
- services.js: replace magic number 5000 with TIMEOUTS.HTTP_DEFAULT
Both files already import TIMEOUTS from constants but weren't using it.
- Replaced god object ctx with explicit dependency injection
- Added JSDoc documenting required dependencies (8 deps vs 50+)
- Updated response calls to use response-helpers (success/error)
- Self-documenting: you can see exactly what this route needs
- Health checks, pylon relay, CA cert validation all preserved
DashCaddy Pylon is a lightweight probe agent that runs on remote
networks to relay health checks for services the main DashCaddy
instance can't reach directly (e.g., .sami domains, LAN IPs).
- Standalone zero-dependency Node.js script (pylon/dashcaddy-pylon.js)
- Optional API key auth, HEAD→GET fallback, batch probe support
- Health routes now try direct check first, fall back to pylon relay
- New endpoints: /health/probe (act as pylon), /health/pylon (status)
- Config: add "pylon": { "url": "...", "key": "..." } to config.json

- Add url-resolver.js with single resolveServiceUrl() used by all 5 consumers
(probes, health routes, health checker auto-config)
- Health checker now does full sync (add/update/remove) instead of add-only,
and re-syncs automatically after every services.json mutation
- docker-maintenance and log-digest are now optional imports with try/catch,
preventing container crashes when these files are absent
- Add null guards in routes/logs.js for graceful 503 responses
