+# Web Console: restart status, impact preview, and approval state (#667)
+
+Phase 1 of the console restart surface. It consumes the #655 coordinator
+substrate and displays it. It performs no restart, reload, drain, approval, or
+process action, and it registers no write endpoint.
+
+Issue #667's rollout is explicit — *status views first, write approval after the
+backend gates are green* — and this change delivers only the status half.
+
+## Surfaces
+
+| Path | Method | Purpose |
+|------|--------|---------|
+| `/runtime/restart` | GET | Restart status page |
+| `/api/v1/system/restart/status` | GET | Same snapshot as JSON |
+
+Both accept an optional `restart_class` query parameter (default
+`full_mcp_restart`). An unrecognised class is not an error: the coordinator
+resolves it as unknown and fails closed, and the page shows the resulting deny.
+
+Neither path accepts `POST`; a write attempt returns `405`, and a test asserts
+it.
+
+## What it shows
+
+* **Impact preview (#658)** — verdict, blast radius, affected sessions, leases,
+  critical sections, mutations, and the counts behind them, evaluated
+  `dry_run=True` against live control-plane state.
+* **Drain proof (#661)** — verification of a supplied proof: valid, clean,
+  expired, tampered, and the reasons behind a refusal.
+* **Post-restart reconcile (#662)** — the most recent completion proof, its
+  overall status, and which dimensions still require follow-up.
+* **Restart classes (#663)** — the least-privilege matrix, with *you may
+  request* and *you may execute* computed for the viewing role rather than for a
+  generic operator.
+* **Approval controls (#633)** — the authorization state of
+  `system.restart_namespace` and `system.reload_namespace`.
+* **Break-glass (#664)** — declared and marked unavailable; see below.
+
+## Three rules this surface holds itself to
+
+A status page that is wrong is worse than one that is missing, because an
+operator acts on it. Three properties are enforced by tests, and each was
+verified by reverting the guard and watching a test fail.
+
+### An unreadable source reports unavailable, never green
+
+Every source carries its own `SourceStatus`. Nothing substitutes a default,
+placeholder, or self-comparison for a reading that failed. An unreadable
+control-plane database yields `inventory_complete: false`, which the coordinator
+itself turns into a fail-closed verdict, and the page says the blast radius is
+unknown rather than showing an empty affected-sessions table.
+
+An absent drain proof is reported as absent — not as a pass. The #661 gate
+authorizes a restart only against a valid, unexpired, clean proof, so no proof
+is precisely the state that gate denies on.
+
+### Authorization is asked the way execution would ask it
+
+Every probe passes `for_execution=True`.
+
+Asked without it, an admin is `allowed` for `system.restart_namespace`. On a
+control surface that reads as a live button. Asked the way an execution attempt
+would ask, the same principal is refused `phase_not_active`, because the console
+is in Phase 1 and the action is Phase 2. This surface reports the second answer.
+
+`execution_enabled` is therefore `false` for every action and every role today,
+and a test asserts that across the whole role matrix.
+
+### The control-plane database is opened read-only
+
+`ControlPlaneDB()` creates directories and runs migrations on construction — a
+write. This surface never constructs one. It opens the sqlite file with
+`mode=ro`, exactly as `webui/inventory.py` does, and treats a missing file as
+missing authority rather than as an empty inventory.
+
+The test that protects this points at a path inside a directory that already
+exists, so a read-write `connect` would really create the file. A nested
+missing-directory path would have passed for the wrong reason.
+
+## Break-glass is declared, not offered
+
+The break-glass workflow (#664) is not available on this branch's base. The
+panel is rendered to operator-class roles as **unavailable**, naming the issue
+that tracks it. It is not silently omitted, because an operator who has been
+told a governance path exists needs to see that it is not wired here; and it is
+not rendered as a control, because there is nothing behind it.
+
+Unprivileged viewers see only a note that the surface is operator-class.
+
+## Redaction and escaping
+
+Every interpolated value passes through `_esc` (`html.escape(..., quote=True)`).
+Free-form text and anything that can carry a filesystem path additionally passes
+through `webui.inventory.scrub_text`, which redacts credential-shaped tokens
+inside a string rather than only at its start. The impact payload is passed
+through `webui.inventory.scrub` before rendering.

+"""Read-only restart status, impact preview, and approval state (#667).
+
+Phase 1 of the console restart surface. It *consumes* the #655 coordinator
+substrate and renders it; it never restarts, reloads, drains, approves, or kills
+anything. There is no apply path in this module, so there is no execution gate
+here to arm incorrectly — the only writes the console could perform are the ones
+it does not implement.
+
+Sources, each independently fail-soft and each reported with its own
+:class:`SourceStatus`:
+
+* :mod:`restart_coordinator` — restart-class policy matrix (#663) and the
+  blast-radius impact report (#658).
+* :mod:`drain_proof` — drain checklist and gate verdict (#661), verified
+  read-only against a caller-supplied proof.
+* :mod:`post_restart_reconcile` — post-restart completion proof (#662).
+* :mod:`webui.console_authz` — role authorization for the approval controls
+  (#633).
+
+Three rules this module holds itself to, because a status surface that lies is
+worse than one that is absent:
+
+**A source that could not be read is reported unavailable, never green.** No
+default, placeholder, or self-comparison is substituted for a reading that
+failed. An unreadable control-plane DB yields ``inventory_complete=False``,
+which the coordinator itself turns into a fail-closed verdict.
+
+**Authorization is asked the way execution would ask it.** Every authorization
+probe passes ``for_execution=True``, so the console reports whether the action
+could actually run rather than the weaker "this principal is the right role".
+While the console is in Phase 1 that answer is ``phase_not_active`` for every
+phase-2 action, and the surface says so plainly instead of showing an allow.
+
+**The database is opened read-only.** ``ControlPlaneDB()`` creates directories
+and runs migrations on construction, which is a write; this module opens the
+sqlite file with ``mode=ro`` exactly as :mod:`webui.inventory` does, and treats
+a missing file as missing authority rather than an empty inventory.
