Migration 0018_windows_servers_synthetic_checks:
- insight.WindowsServers (SQL Server hosts kept in step by the agent, servers added
in SQLInsight Web), ServerPerformance (per minute, one row per sample),
ServerDiskSamples (forecast history), ServerEvents (grouped like ErrorLogEvents),
ServerSnapshots (latest per area).
- insight.SyntheticChecks (SQL login password sealed for the agent, as in 1.3) and
SyntheticCheckResults.
- insight.ServerFindings and ServerRuleStates, scoped to a server or a check.
- AgentRequests.TargetId and the kinds ServerTest and SyntheticCheckRun.
- SQLInsight Web gets INSERT and column UPDATE only; host, name and kind are fixed,
nothing the agent records can be written, no DELETE.
Findings are opened, updated and resolved like instance findings; a round where a
rule is not measurable keeps what was found open. Retention for samples, disk
history, events, check results and resolved findings (RunServerMaintenanceAsync).

- A lock timeout or deadlock while detecting (e.g. during an AX table
synchronisation) dropped the database from AX monitoring for an hour, so
its findings resolved and reopened. The earlier detection is kept and
retried within 5 minutes. A cancelled collection is no longer reported as
"læsningen fejlede".
- A lock timeout kept the earlier batch picture forever; now at most 15
minutes (MeasuredAt), so a job that has started is not reported late from
an old picture.
- revoke-dynamics-ax-read.sql revoked SELECT on same-named tables in every
schema, also a DENY set by a DBA. It now finds the AX schema like the grant
script and revokes only granted SELECT there.
- SQLI-AX-006 skips blocked sequences (as -005/-008 do); forecasts under a
day say "inden for et døgn" instead of "om ca. 0 dage".
- Integration tests: the SQL Scripts run as-is in main's format, and the
shared connection has the agent's session settings after the AX reads.
- docs/dynamics-ax.md: history bounds, lock-timeout window, session settings,
/detection-problems, API redaction.

The detector looks again every 5 minutes at an AX database where the agent
lacks part of the read access, so a GRANT takes effect quickly. The AX SQL
test checks that only standard AX tables are read. The hub end-to-end test
expects no AX rule outcomes without the opt-in. Docs: what 1.5's synthetic
AX checks can reuse.

Built from the schema files in the SQL Server 2022 container and read as the
least-privilege agent login: detection and discovery, 'ikke målbar' with the
exact GRANT and measuring after it (no customer table readable, no data
changed), the shipped grant/revoke scripts, AX 2012 history by RECID read
once, a locked AX table skipped within seconds, the SQL Scripts run as-is,
repository retention and read-back, and the web pages and API v1.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
API v1 returns logins and people's names as [udeladt] unless
ApiIncludesSensitiveEvidence is on, but /monitored-instances and /agent-requests
returned the SQL login, createdBy/updatedBy/requestedBy/selectionChangedBy, the
login the agent arrived as and 'Login failed for user ...' texts, and the GRANT
script filled in with the login. They are now redacted the same way (the GRANT
script falls back to the shipped template). ChooseAsync also answers 404 for an
unknown instance instead of 422.

With SQLInsight:Web:AdminGroups empty nobody could add the first server. The
installer now takes ADMIN_GROUPS (';'-separated) and writes it to the web's
sqlinsight.ini; while the setting is empty, members of the web server's
BUILTIN\Administrators (S-1-5-32-544 among the user's group SIDs; a remote
Negotiate login has the full token, a UAC-filtered deny-only SID does not count)
may change it. The page says who may.

The overview kept listing removed and paused instances with their last data and
counted them in the totals and alerts. Removed instances now disappear from the
overview, Alle fund, /api/v1/instances and /metrics (their history stays for
reports and the instance page); paused ones are shown as "Sat på pause" and
are left out of the totals, the urgent findings and the alerts (Prometheus gets
sqlinsight_instance_paused instead of instance_up = 0).

The agent deleted ConfigFile rows no longer in the file, and with them (cascade)
the pause and the database choices: commenting an instance out for a restart lost
them. It is now soft-deleted like a Web instance and brought back, choices and
all, when it returns to the file.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A page under Overvågning lists the monitored servers (from SQLInsight Web and,
read-only, from the agent's configuration file), adds a server (name\instance,
optional port, Windows via the agent's account or a SQL login, encryption),
pauses, resumes and removes it, and finds instances via the agent (SQL Server
Browser). Each server's page shows the agent's connection test with the rights
it has and lacks, the least-privilege GRANT script for the login the agent
arrives as, and the discovered databases (state, size, recovery model,
compatibility level, Dynamics AX) to tick for monitoring, with "overvåg
automatisk nye databaser" and AX findings to the hub per database. Pages
refresh while the agent works on a request.
Only SQLInsight:Web:AdminGroups (new) may change anything; others see it.
SQL login passwords are sealed with the agent's public key on arrival and
never shown or returned; a new server or login needs the password again.
API v1: /monitored-instances (list, add, get, patch pause/monitor-new,
connection, delete), …/connection-test (start, latest with missing
permissions), …/discovery, …/databases (read, choose), …/grant-script,
/instance-discovery and /agent-requests/{id}. Changes need the new token scope
config:write, or AdminGroups for Windows users.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The agent mirrors SQLInsight:Instances into the repository at start (read-only
"fra konfigurationsfil" rows, every database monitored as before) and reads the
configuration on every tick: instances added, paused, removed or changed in
SQLInsight Web, and database choices, take effect without a restart. If the
repository cannot be read before the first load, the configuration file alone
is used.
AgentRequestService runs connection tests (with the permission check), database
discovery and instance discovery (SQL Server Browser, registry) as the agent's
own identity, and refreshes every instance's database list hourly. The agent
keeps an RSA key (DPAPI LocalMachine, restricted folder) and publishes its public
key and identity; SQL login passwords sealed by the web UI are opened only here.
Dynamics AX findings and AX rule outcomes are sent to SQLInsight Hub only for
databases where it is turned on (default off).

CollectorContext carries the instance's DatabaseSelection; the database,
index, Query Store and community-rule collectors skip databases that are not
chosen (system databases always run). DatabaseDiscovery lists every database
with state, size, recovery model, compatibility level and access, and
recognises Dynamics AX with the same signature as the AX rules, through
three-part names only (2000 and 2005+ variants). PermissionCheck reports which
rights from grant-least-privilege.sql the login has (HAS_PERMS_BY_NAME,
version-aware; not possible on 2000).

insight.ConfiguredInstances (Web or ConfigFile source, soft remove, sealed
password), insight.ConfiguredDatabases (discovery result, monitored, AX to hub),
insight.AgentRequests (queue for connection tests and discovery run by the agent)
and insight.AgentKeys (the agent's public key and identity). The web login gets
INSERT on ConfiguredInstances and AgentRequests and UPDATE on named columns only;
no DELETE, no Source/Name change, nothing the agent records.

With the new collectors the full suite fills the plan cache with heavier
statements, so the light probe statements could fall outside the 50
heaviest. The test clears the cache first (test only; SQLInsight never does).

The index collector now sums index reads and writes between collections
across restarts of SQL Server (and of the agent, by seeding from the
stored snapshot) and keeps them per day in insight.IndexUsageDaily
(migration 0015, HourlyDays). SQLI-IDX-002 judges an index once it has
been followed for 7 days instead of needing 7 days of uptime.
GET /api/v1/instances/{name}/index-usage lists usage per index.
SQLI-STAT-001 also reports statistics that were never updated on tables
with rows; statistic rows now come from the table's heap or clustered
index, as a never-updated statistic has no row count of its own.

On a distributor, a 15-minute collector reads each distribution agent's
latest run (status, latency, message) and replication errors the last
day from the distribution database. That needs SELECT on
MSdistribution_agents, MSdistribution_history and MSrepl_errors, which
the agent does not have by default (never the replicated commands);
without it SQLI-REPL-001 (agent failed/retrying, High) and SQLI-REPL-002
(latency > 5 min, Medium) are "not measurable" with the exact grant, and
"not relevant" elsewhere. Shown on the instance page and in
GET /api/v1/instances/{name}/replication. Tested against a real
distributor set up in the SQL 2022 container.

A five-minute collector reads tempdb space (free, version store, user and
internal objects, whether files can grow), the 'Version Store Size (KB)'
counter, the sessions using most tempdb, the oldest snapshot transaction
and, only when the version store is large, the databases generating
versions. Trend and heavy sessions survive restarts; used space and the
version store become metrics with explanation and assessment.
Rules SQLI-TEMP-001 (version store > 1 GB or steadily growing),
SQLI-TEMP-002 (nearly full and cannot grow) and SQLI-TEMP-003 (session
above 1 GB for 15 minutes), configurable under SQLInsight:Tempdb.
"tempdb lige nu" on the instance page; GET /api/v1/instances/{name}/tempdb.

A one-minute collector reads open user transactions (age, log bytes used
and reserved, database, session, login, program, statement) and user
requests running longer than the threshold, leaving out the agent's own
and system sessions, BACKUP/RESTORE/DBCC (long operations) and requests
waiting on purpose. Transactions open a minute or holding 100 MB are kept
in insight.LongTransactions (migration 0014, RawDays).
Rules SQLI-TRAN-001 (open > 10 min, High at 6x), SQLI-TRAN-002 (> 1 GB
log) and SQLI-REQ-001 (statement > 15 min), configurable under
SQLInsight:Activity. Shown "right now" on the instance page and in the
time window analysis and PDF; GET /api/v1/instances/{name}/activity and
the analysis JSON leave logins and statements out.

A five-minute collector reads important error log entries from the best
source the agent's rights allow: the error log itself (xp_readerrorlog,
only with securityadmin), the default trace's ErrorLog and Audit Login
Failed events (optional ALTER TRACE), or the exception and connectivity
ring buffers (VIEW SERVER STATE: numbers and severity, failed logins).
Repetitions are summed per error; the watermark is the newest entry
read, because the default trace is buffered. Stored in
insight.ErrorLogEvents (migration 0013, EventDays), resumed after restart.
Rules SQLI-LOG-001..006: corruption 823/824/825, I/O over 15 s (833),
severe errors (17+), login failure bursts (configurable), stack dumps and
AG errors; rules needing the log text are "not measurable" with the
right to grant. Page /instanser/{navn}/fejllog (menu Overvågning) and
GET /api/v1/instances/{name}/error-log with messages redacted.

A rule whose topic applies but whose way of measuring needs a newer
version or patch now gives the new outcome ManualCheck with concrete
Danish guidance, instead of NotApplicable. It is marked explicitly per
rule (IRule.ManualCheck) and only used when every missing capability is
a measurement capability (InstanceCapabilities.IsMeasurement): CHECKDB
status (SQLI-DB-009), VLFs (SQLI-DB-011), spills and memory grants
(SQLI-PLAN-004/005) and deadlocks on 2005 (SQLI-DLK-001). Query Store,
AG and Azure-managed topics stay "not relevant".
Shown in a visible "Skal tjekkes manuelt" section on the instance page,
a KPI on the overview, a "Tjek manuelt" column in the management
report's controls, manualChecks in /api/v1/instances and manualCheck in
rule-states; not counted as not measurable.

- POST/GET /api/v1/support-cases[/{id}] and POST .../{id}/close in
SQLInsight Web, sharing the /support form's logic: same checks, finding
prefill without sensitive evidence, Idempotency-Key as the request id,
202 Accepted with Location, problem+json 403 without the support:write
scope or a support license. RequestedBy is the Windows user or
token:<name>.
- Closing: "Luk sag" on /support and the API record CloseRequested
(migration 0012, column-level UPDATE for the read-only web login); the
agent sends it to the hub with backoff and sets Closed when confirmed;
a pending case is closed once it has a number; an older hub list never
turns CloseRequested back to Open.
- Hub: POST /api/v1/cases/{reference}/close for the license's own cases
(others 404), idempotent, ClosedBy/ClosedComment (EF migration
CaseClosedBy). Portal closing records "SEOSoft: <user>"; the customer
page shows who closed and why; the support report and CSV get "Lukket af".

- /api/v1/findings gains status (active/resolved/all), from/to, database,
ruleId, category, sort and paging (limit + X-Continuation header; the
response stays an array). /findings/{id} with fix script and history.
- /rules (built-in, community, local) and /instances/{name}/rule-states.
- /reports and /reports/{driftsrapport|analyse|rettigheder} as JSON or PDF,
built from the same models as the pages and PDFs.
- Page data: analysis, top-sql, disks, configuration, privileges (one or
all instances) and wait types. Statement texts, logins, names and
service accounts are "[udeladt]" unless ApiIncludesSensitiveEvidence.
- OpenAPI at /api/v1/openapi.json; a test fails when an endpoint is
missing from it.
- API tokens get scopes ("read", "support:write"); the old form is read
only, and new-api-token takes --scope. Token names show as token:<name>.

A new light collector samples sys.dm_exec_requests every 15 seconds:
waiting user sessions (not the agent's own) by wait type, database and
statement (same key as top SQL), with blocking. Sampling-only cycles
reuse the last probe and skip rule evaluation. Stored in
insight.ActiveWaitSamples (migration 0010) for RawDays.
Wait types on the instance page and in the analysis link to
/instanser/{navn}/ventetyper/{type}: Danish explanation from a new
knowledge base (shared with the SQLI-WAIT rules, with Dynamics AX notes),
trend over time, the statements that waited with share and estimated
wait, a link to the full text (/instanser/{navn}/sql) and, for lock
waits, to blocking in the same window. SQL Server 2005 compatible.

Collects members of the fixed server roles and CONTROL SERVER every 15
minutes with login type, disabled state and SQL login password policy.
Windows groups are unfolded recursively through Active Directory on a
Windows agent (cached, 20 s timeout, failures shown with the reason).
Changes since the previous collection are logged, and who/when is read
from the default trace (event 108) when the agent has the optional
ALTER TRACE; authors that only reach the buffered trace later are filled
in at the next collection. The first collection is the baseline.
New rules SQLI-SEC-001 (new privilege, High for sysadmin/securityadmin/
CONTROL SERVER) and SQLI-SEC-002 (more sysadmins than the limit, default
3). Names are sensitive evidence and never in titles or subjects.
Web: /instanser/{navn}/rettigheder and /rettigheder with change log by

- new collector instance-config: collation, edition, version, services and
accounts (sys.dm_server_services, 2008 R2 SP1+), Instant File
Initialization and Lock Pages in Memory (where the build has the
columns), tempdb files, default paths; plus a fingerprint of the whole
setup (sp_configure, trace flags, services, version, tempdb files)
- changes are computed against the previous collection, which the agent
restores from the repository after a restart; migration 0008 keeps them
in insight.ConfigurationChanges (as long as resolved findings)
- SQLI-CFG-013 "Konfiguration ændret": information for a day when
sp_configure, a trace flag or a service account changes (account names
are sensitive evidence)
- page /instanser/{navn}/konfiguration: instance, CPU and memory, services,
tempdb, trace flags, non-default sp_configure (default vs. in use vs.
configured) and the change log; linked from the instance page
- the management report lists configuration changes in the period
- trace flag reading shared by trace-flags and instance-config

- migration 0007: Volume and IntervalSeconds on FileIoSamples, and
DiskHourly (rolled up by maintenance, kept HourlyDays)
- DiskActivity sums files per drive: read/write IOPS, MB/s and latency
weighted by I/O count
- instance page: "Diskhastighed pr. drev" (table and MB/s + latency charts);
time window analysis and its PDF: per drive against the same hours of the
four previous weeks

At a customer whose repository sits on a monitored instance, the agent
reported 12 deadlocks that were its own: two instances' monitors save
findings in parallel, one transaction each, and while insight.Findings is
small SQL Server scans it, so the two lock each other's rows.
- SaveRuleResultsAsync takes an exclusive application lock for its
transaction (the agent is the only writer; a save takes milliseconds)
and retries if chosen as deadlock victim anyway
- repository connections are named "SQLInsight Pro (repository)"
- deadlocks where every participant is SQLInsight Pro are not reported
(the read position still moves past them); any other session keeps it
The new integration test (two instances saving 25 rules x 40 rounds in
parallel) failed 2 of 2 without the fix and passed 5 of 5 with it.

On SQL Server 2005 twenty rules stood as "not measurable" (Query Store,
system_health, memory columns …) between the real gaps, and counted in the
overview's "regler ikke målbare". They are not gaps: the version simply
lacks what they look at.
- New RuleOutcome.NotApplicable (last in the enum: outcomes are stored as
numbers, so existing rows keep their meaning).
- A rule or collector missing only capabilities inherent to the instance
(version-gated, plan cache memory columns, or Azure-managed) is not
applicable, with the version each needs: "Ikke relevant for SQL Server
2005: kræver QueryStore (fra SQL Server 2016)". Missing settings or rights
(HADR not enabled …), collector failures and permission errors stay
"not measurable". CollectedData.MarkNotApplicable carries this from
collectors to the rules that use their data; community rules below their
minimumVersion are not applicable too.
- Counts are unchanged in shape: the overview, KPI, JSON API and Prometheus
count outcomes 2 and 3 only. The instance page lists the rest in a
collapsed "Ikke relevant for SQL Server 2005 (n)" (details/summary, no
JS) after the real gaps. Report controls whose core rule does not apply
count neither as met nor as not measured.
Tests: engine (version vs. setting vs. collected data), inherent
capabilities, the existing version tests now expect not applicable, report
control status, and the web page and overview count.

SQLInsight Web: /instanser/{navn}/analyse?fra=&til= (datetime-local in the
display time zone; presets last hour, tonight 00-06, yesterday; at most 31
days). "Analysér et tidsrum" on the instance page, and blocking/deadlock
times there open the window half an hour around the event.
For the window: load (CPU, batch requests, compilations, PLE, connections,
memory grants pending, blocked processes) from 5-minute samples within
Retention:RawDays, otherwise hourly history (shown on the page); waits per
minute against the same hours and weekday of the previous 4 weeks, with
clear deviations marked; top SQL sortable by CPU, duration, reads and
executions; file I/O latency; blocking chains; deadlocks; findings active
in the window. An empty window explains the retention. "Hent som PDF"

- Repository migration 0005: insight.SupportCases. The web UI has only
db_datareader, so INSERT on this one table is granted to public.
- Web: /support (menu "Support") lists the customer's cases and, with
Hub sync on and a Professional/Enterprise license, a form (title,
description, contact; contact prefilled from the Windows user).
/support?fund=<id> prefills from a finding: instance, rule, severity,
explanation and non-sensitive measurements.
- "Opret supportsag" on findings: right-click a finding link or a
finding's heading (support-menu.js, a static file within the CSP;
Shift+F10/context key, Escape closes), and a visible button on the
finding page that works without JavaScript. Only when support is
available.
- Agent: sends pending requests to POST /api/v1/cases, stores the case
number, backs off on failures and gives up on 400/401/403/422; fetches
the customer's cases every 5 minutes (at once after sending).
- Docs: support.md (also on the community site), databehandling.md
(contact details are sent to the hub).

- Case numbers SUP-000001, SUP-000002 … per customer, unique per customer
(new index; a migration step renames any old duplicates first). The
portal suggests the next number on the finding page and under the new
"Ny sag" on the customer page; an empty field gets the next number, a
typed one that is taken is refused. Concurrent creates retry.
- SupportCase gains Source (Staff/Customer), description, contact name,
e-mail, phone, the customer's Windows user and ClientRequestId.
- POST/GET /api/v1/cases for the customer's agent (license with priority
support): creates a case idempotently on ClientRequestId, links the
finding it came from, lists the customer's cases incl. staff-created.
Customer/license creation is shared with the findings endpoint.
- Optional mail to support for customer cases (MailKit; prefers AUTH LOGIN
as Microsoft 365 needs). A failed mail is logged, never fails the call.
deploy-hub.yml writes optional SUPPORT_SMTP_* secrets to .env.
- Supportrapport: created, closed, open now, average/median resolution
time, oldest open case and customer-created share per customer for a
period (default 90 days), plus the cases; CSV for Danish Excel.
- Cases page: newest first, customer cases marked, contact/description.
- Customer page: findings can be filtered to one instance (?instans=id,
ignored for another customer's instance); active findings per instance
by severity.
- dotnet-ef as a local tool (dotnet-tools.json) for the migration.

The hub records when an instance changes build and works out which
findings went away within three days of an update and which were still
there a week later (version rules excluded). Staff see every effect in
the portal; effects seen at three or more customers, resolved more
often than not, are served to licensed agents as anonymous counts
(rule, major version, build, CU, customers, instances). The agent
fetches them every six hours and the web UI shows them on matching
findings: 'at 3 customers this went away after updating to CU21'.
Data processing documentation covers the aggregation.

Rules can now be data: a JSON file with one read-only SELECT where every
row is a finding, with {column} templates, server or per-database scope,
minimum version, sensitive columns and references. Community rules live
in rules/community (reviewed via pull request), ship with every build
and with the signed rule pack; local rules are read from the agent's
data folder every five minutes. Queries are checked for anything that
could write, run with the least-privilege login, and a missing
permission makes the rule not measurable rather than failing. The
rule engine picks up catalog changes without a restart. Authors get
'rules validate' and 'rules test --instance'. Four example community
rules (sa active, orphaned database owners, default trace off,
untrusted foreign keys).

Hub: nightly retention of resolved findings, the submission log and
silent instances; delete-customer erases a customer's data and blocks
its licenses; persistent data protection keys and trusted reverse
proxies. Docker image and compose file with PostgreSQL. The agent
refuses to send the license to a non-https hub. Documentation for the
hub, for data processing (GDPR basis for a data processing agreement)
and the README roadmap for phase 3.

Rule packs (support dates and newest CU per release) are published in a
signed feed and hot-loaded without a restart; the verified pack is
reloaded at startup. New versions are announced (Notify) or downloaded
and staged by the unprivileged agent (Automatic), and installed by a
privileged apply-update task that re-verifies signature and hash in an
admin-only folder, keeps appsettings/web.config, health-checks the
services and rolls back on failure. Stable and preview channels,
manifest expiry and rollback protection, https or folder/share feeds
for offline sites. Vendor tool gains rulepack and publish; the Hub can
serve the feed; the web UI gets a System page with update, rule pack,
license and exactly what is sent to the Hub.

Server-rendered portal on the Hub: staff login (PBKDF2 hashes, rate
limited, antiforgery, local-only return URLs), customer overview with
the most widespread problems across customers, customer and finding
pages, support cases linked to findings, and license revocation that
takes effect on the next agent submission. add-staff CLI command.

- ASP.NET Core API POST /api/v1/findings with EF Core (Npgsql, snake_case)
and a generated initial migration
- The hub is the authority on licenses: verifies the signature itself,
rejects invalid (401), community/expired past grace (403), revoked
(403, re-checked under the lock) and over the instance limit (403)
- Full-state reconciliation per instance: new findings inserted, existing
updated, missing ones resolved, rule states upserted; idempotent by
submission id; late older submissions are recorded but not applied
- Serialized per customer with a PostgreSQL advisory lock (found by a
concurrency test: parallel first submissions raced on the license row)
- Size and schema validation; tests on real PostgreSQL, including the full
path agent → queue → hub → PostgreSQL with evidence redaction

- Repository reports which findings opened and resolved per evaluation
- Agent notifies on new and resolved findings and on instance
unreachable/recovered transitions, with links to the web UI
- Channels: e-mail (MailKit, HTML-encoded), Microsoft Teams Workflows
webhook (Adaptive Card), generic JSON webhook signed with HMAC-SHA256
- Per-channel minimum severity (outages always sent), one message per
batch, hourly cap per channel; a failing channel never stops monitoring
- Tested with a real SMTP server (Mailpit) and the real agent pipeline

Baselines per hour of the week (with neighbouring hours) from four weeks
of hourly aggregates, computed in C# (independent of DATEFIRST) and
refreshed by the agent each hour. SQLI-ANOM-001 compares current load
with what is normal at this time: CPU far above normal, batch requests
far above or collapsed (application down?), page life expectancy
collapse. Not measurable until enough history exists.

With SQL Agent and the whole suite running, three light executions did
not reach the 50 most CPU-heavy statements. The collector's behavior is
unchanged.

- Availability group collector (replica and database replica states,
queues, commit times) and rules: SQLI-AG-001 unhealthy/disconnected
replica or suspended data movement (scripts HADR RESUME), SQLI-AG-002
secondary behind (estimated data loss and redo time)
- SQL Agent collector using only granted msdb tables (no EXECUTE on msdb
functions): SQLI-JOB-001 failed job with the failing step's message
(backup/CHECKDB jobs are High), SQLI-JOB-002 SQL Agent not running
- Integration tests create a real availability group (CLUSTER_TYPE NONE)
and a failing job in the test container (HADR and Agent enabled)

Collector (every 6 h, metadata and DMVs only, no scans): index inventory
with usage and forwarded fetches, missing-index suggestions, statistics
modifications via sysindexes.rowmodctr (needs only metadata visibility).
Rules:
- SQLI-IDX-001 missing index, evaluated against existing indexes:
extends an index with the same keys instead of adding one; notes on
write-heavy tables, many indexes, wide includes, short uptime
- SQLI-IDX-002 unused index (needs 7 days of uptime; suggests DISABLE)
- SQLI-IDX-003 duplicate or covered index (filters, uniqueness respected)
- SQLI-IDX-004 heap with forwarded records
- SQLI-STAT-001 stale statistics, SQLI-STAT-002 auto statistics off
Column lists use U+E000 as separator: FOR XML cannot serialize NCHAR(1).

Collector takes the 50 heaviest statements (CPU, last 24 h), fetches
statement plans as text (dm_exec_query_plan returns NULL for deeply
nested plans) and analyzes them in C#. Rules:
- SQLI-PLAN-001 implicit conversion preventing an index seek
- SQLI-PLAN-002 join without predicate (deliberate CROSS JOIN excluded)
- SQLI-PLAN-003 non-inlined scalar UDF in a heavy statement
- SQLI-PLAN-004 spills to tempdb, SQLI-PLAN-005 oversized memory grants
(2016 SP2+ / 2017 CU3+ columns, new capability)
Verified against real plans in SQL Server.

Collector reads the 100 heaviest queries per Query Store database, split
into the last 24 hours and the week before. Rules:
- SQLI-QS-001 plan regression: new plan >= 2x slower than the best plan
from the week before and >= 60 s extra per day; scripts the force
- SQLI-QS-002 forced plan that fails (e.g. NO_INDEX); scripts the unforce
- SQLI-QS-003 parameter sensitivity: very different plans or volatile
durations; suggests PSP optimization / Query Store hints on 2022+
Also: backups taken in the same second a database was created count.

- ASP.NET Core Blazor static SSR: overview with KPI tiles, instance page
(findings, CPU/batch/PLE trends, top waits, file latency, blocking,
deadlocks with .xdl download, not-measurable rules, resolved), finding
detail with explanation, evidence, fix script and references
- Light-first design (sidebar, cards, self-hosted Inter, teal accent),
optional dark theme via toggle; strict CSP, no inline styles
- Windows authentication (Negotiate/IIS) with optional group restriction;
refuses to run without authentication outside Development
- Hosting: IIS (in-process ASP.NET Core Module), Windows service with
Kestrel, or systemd; web reads the repository with db_datareader only
- docs/installation.md for repository, permissions, agent and web
- Fix: CPU used by other processes is not derived on Linux (SystemIdle is
unreliable there); deadlocks are not re-reported or stored twice after
an agent restart; Dapper sends datetime2 so time comparisons are exact

Each instance runs its due collectors over one hardened connection per
cycle, keeps previous results for deltas, evaluates all rules and stores
findings, rule states and time series. Instances run in parallel with a
limit; a slow or failing instance never delays the others. The
repository is migrated at startup with retry, and maintenance runs hourly.
End-to-end test against SQL Server with the least-privilege login.
