Implements automated cleanup workflow when nodes are deleted from Pulse, removing all monitoring footprint from the host. Changes include a new RPC handler in the sensor proxy for cleanup requests, enhanced node deletion modal with detailed cleanup explanations, and improved SSH key management with proper tagging for atomic updates.
Improvements to pulse-sensor-proxy:
- Fix cluster discovery to use pvecm status for IP addresses instead of node names
- Add standalone node support for non-clustered Proxmox hosts
- Enhanced SSH key push with detailed logging, success/failure tracking, and error reporting
- Add --pulse-server flag to installer for custom Pulse URLs
- Configure www-data group membership for Proxmox IPC access
UI and API cleanup:
- Remove unused "Ensure cluster keys" button from Settings
- Remove /api/diagnostics/temperature-proxy/ensure-cluster-keys endpoint
- Remove EnsureClusterKeys method from tempproxy client
The setup script already handles SSH key distribution during initial configuration,
making the manual refresh button redundant.
The name "temp-proxy" implied a temporary or incomplete implementation. The new name better reflects its purpose as a secure sensor data bridge for containerized Pulse deployments.
Changes:
- Renamed cmd/pulse-temp-proxy/ to cmd/pulse-sensor-proxy/
- Updated all path constants and binary references
- Renamed environment variables: PULSE_TEMP_PROXY_* to PULSE_SENSOR_PROXY_*
- Updated systemd service and service account name
- Updated installation, rotation, and build scripts
- Renamed hardening documentation
- Maintained backward compatibility for key removal during upgrades
Fixes LXC bind mount issue where socket-level mounts break when the
socket is recreated by systemd. Following Codex's recommendation to
bind mount the directory instead of the file.
Changes:
- Socket path: /run/pulse-temp-proxy/pulse-temp-proxy.sock
- Systemd: RuntimeDirectory=pulse-temp-proxy (auto-creates /run/pulse-temp-proxy)
- Systemd: RuntimeDirectoryMode=0770 for group access
- LXC mount: Bind entire /run/pulse-temp-proxy directory
- Install script: Upgrades old socket-level mounts to directory-level
- Install script: Detects and handles bind mount changes
This survives socket recreations and container restarts. The directory
mount persists even when systemd unlinks/recreates the socket file.

Introduces pulse-temp-proxy architecture to eliminate SSH key exposure in containers:
**Architecture:**
- pulse-temp-proxy runs on Proxmox host (outside LXC/Docker)
- SSH keys stored on host filesystem (/var/lib/pulse-temp-proxy/ssh/)
- Pulse communicates via unix socket (bind-mounted into container)
- Proxy handles cluster discovery, key rollout, and temperature fetching
**Components:**
- cmd/pulse-temp-proxy: Standalone Go binary with unix socket RPC server
- internal/tempproxy: Client library for Pulse backend
- scripts/install-temp-proxy.sh: Idempotent installer for existing deployments
- scripts/pulse-temp-proxy.service: Systemd service for proxy
**Integration:**
- Pulse automatically detects and uses proxy when socket exists
- Falls back to direct SSH for native installations
- Installer automatically configures proxy for new LXC deployments
- Existing LXC users can upgrade by running install-temp-proxy.sh
**Security improvements:**
- Container compromise no longer exposes SSH keys
- SSH keys never enter container filesystem
- Maintains forced command restrictions
- Transparent to users - no workflow changes
**Documentation:**
- Updated TEMPERATURE_MONITORING.md with new architecture
- Added verification steps and upgrade instructions
- Preserved legacy documentation for native installs
