Two gaps in the baseline-reconciliation feature:
- The dashboard claimed to summarise acknowledged drift, but renderIntegrity()
never rendered it. Add a `recon` chip to the integrity summary and a
Reconciliation state-card (accepted/ok/stale counts plus stale items).
- A read-only GET /api/integrity could write the store: list() flushed a
TTL-lapsed ok->stale transition to disk, violating the read-only dashboard
invariant. Add list(persist=False) and use it from the web summary path so
staleness is evaluated in memory without touching the file.
Covered by a new test asserting integrity_report() never rewrites the store.

Surface integrity and watchdog state in the read-only dashboard via a new
/api/integrity endpoint and integrity_report(): watchdog/heartbeat
verdict, FIM baseline and package-DB anchor freshness, pacman keyring and
SigLevel posture, and Sentinel's own self-integrity footprint. The
endpoint summarizes existing anchors and heartbeats only — it runs no live
FIM or package verification from the request path, keeping the dashboard
read-only.
Add the enodia.integrity.v1 schema (schemas.py + docs/SCHEMAS.md) with a
contract test, a new "Integrity" dashboard tab and summary metric, and
web tests for the report shape, schema contract, endpoint, and console
wiring. Docs updated; completes the v1.0 "dashboard to local console"
roadmap item.

Answers two hard questions: "what guards the hashes FIM trusts?" and "how do we
make the sensor itself hard to silently disable?" — within the honest limit that
a root attacker who shares your privileges can't be fully stopped on-box, only
made loud.
- pkgdb.py: guards the package DB that `pacman -Qkk` trusts. Anchors a
fingerprint of /var/lib/pacman/local (refreshed ONLY by the pacman hook) and
cross-checks pacman.log; a DB change with no logged transaction is flagged
pkgdb_tamper (CRITICAL, sid 100021) — catches an attacker rewriting a stored
checksum to mask a modified binary. Verified end-to-end against a simulated
hash-overwrite.
- selfprotect.py: Sentinel's own binaries/config/units/hook are always in the
FIM watch set (self-integrity); a heartbeat is written each loop; an external
`watchdog` command polls a remote dashboard and pushes if the sensor goes
silent or unreachable — silence becomes the alarm.
- daemon: heartbeat + slow-cadence pkgdb check; DB anchor re-anchored in
build_fim_baseline so the pacman hook refreshes it after each transaction
- web: /api/status now reports heartbeat_age/stale; dashboard shows it
- cli: pkgdb-check, watchdog (--url/--token/--max-age, bypasses min-severity)
- config: pkgdb_verify/_interval, heartbeat_max_age
- README: threat model (trust-anchor problem) + hardening layers (immutability,
signed-package + external anchor); reframes "anti-rootkit" as tamper-evidence
- tests: +8 (DB fingerprint, anchor/transaction logic, pacman.log parse,
heartbeat + watchdog verdicts). 80/80 pass

Both zero-dependency (stdlib http.server + urllib), consistent with the
project's no-dependency-tree stance for a security daemon.
Web dashboard (enodia_sentinel/web.py + static/dashboard.html):
- read-only JSON API over the log dir: /api/status, /api/alerts,
/api/alerts/<id>, /api/events
- bearer-token auth (constant-time; header or ?token=), required on non-
loopback binds, auto-generated + persisted (0600) when unset
- binds the host's Tailscale IP by default (auto-detected), reachable from the
tailnet but not the LAN/internet
- self-contained dark SPA: severity cards, live alert list, full snapshot
viewer; 10s auto-refresh
- path-traversal-safe alert lookup; `enodia-sentinel web` subcommand; daemon
now writes a pidfile so the dashboard can show live status
- hardened enodia-sentinel-web.service (read-only, no caps)
Phone push (enodia_sentinel/notify/):
- pluggable backends — ntfy, Pushover, generic webhook — each separating a pure
build() (unit-tested, no network) from send()
- a backend turns on when its config keys are set; pushes gated by
notify_min_severity; severity → per-service priority/tags
- fired from snapshot.capture on worker threads, errors swallowed
- desktop notify-send retained
Tests: +16 (9 web incl. a real-server 401/200 auth test, 7 notify request-build
cases). 55/55 pass. Live end-to-end verified: daemon → alert → API → page.
