Removed the before/after plaintext-secrets Mermaid diagram (the bullets
right below it already said the same thing more clearly) and the
Architecture flowchart (its per-host labels were silently missing
registry-token and Hawser-secret details that didn't fit in the boxes).
Replaced the flowchart with an accurate, complete "who gets what" table
sourced directly from Trilium, one sentence for the proxy-routing fact
it was trying to show, and a new sequence diagram for the actual secret
lifecycle (auth -> render -> read -> async rotation) - a genuinely
different kind of diagram since that's process/time-ordered information
a table can't represent well.
Also restored real specificity Trilium had that the doc had flattened
into vague language: the cert-renewal row now names Technitium
specifically and states the actual incident (an expired cert silently
served for 19 days before the auto-rebuild hook existed), and the audit
trail row now states the real rotation policy (weekly, 8 generations).
Removed the dependency-graph Mermaid diagram (had backwards Vault
dependency arrows, contradicted the documented ingress model) and the
four-boundary Mermaid diagram (fully redundant with the table below it).
Verified every remaining claim against Trilium's Traffic Flow Model and
fixed two that didn't hold up: the DNS-bypass failure behavior overstated
an unconditional SSO bypass, and the notifications failure behavior had
an unsourced claim about backlog retry.
Added the real story behind the trust-boundary hardening (three stages
of the same "trusted by default" flaw getting found and closed, not a
changelog of dated facts), a new trust-depth diagram showing that being
"inside the network" still enforces its own internal boundaries, and
real pfSense screenshots proving the LAN lockdown rules actually exist
in production, not just in the doc.
Adds a real drawio-exported diagram to "Why Four Trust Boundaries,
Not One" showing the physical blast-radius split behind the routing-
authority claim in the text (previously prose-only). Sanitized -
verified no real hostnames/IPs made it into the export.
Also reorders all 14 Systems bullets alphabetically for easier
scanning.
No more Mermaid, per standing rule - the architecture diagram is now
a real image (assets/architecture-overview.svg), built and exported
from the Nextcloud Diagramming app, fetched via WebDAV and validated
as well-formed XML before committing. Ends the rendering-gap chase
entirely since there's no live renderer involved anymore, just a
static image.
