# Changelog
+## 1.6.0 – 2026-10-23
+
+The repository serves Host Settings.
+
+- **Server:** the sync takes the releases of
+ [Azentrius/cockpit-host-settings](https://github.com/Azentrius/cockpit-host-settings), with the
+ same checks as for every add-on (SHA256SUMS, the digest GitHub reports, the build provenance of
+ its own release workflow). Its releases carry a `.deb` and a `.rpm`.
+- **Catalog:** Cockpit lists Host Settings (`cockpit-host-settings`) under Applications, in step
+ with the add-on's metainfo. It belongs on each server that should send messages.
+
## 1.5.1 – 2026-10-23

+ Every 5 minutes the notifier reads the status of the Azentrius add-ons on the server,
+ through the status contract they share, and sends a message through ntfy, e-mail or both
+ when a finding turns to a warning or a danger, and when it is OK again. The messages hold
+ only what the add-ons report and the server's name. The page sets up the channels, shows
+ the commands the ntfy server needs for this server's user, topic and token, and checks that
+ the topic is closed to anyone without a login. The notifier runs as a user of its own,
+ never as root.

+ Alle 5 Minuten liest der Notifier den Status der Azentrius-Add-ons auf dem Server über den
+ gemeinsamen Status-Vertrag und schickt eine Nachricht per ntfy, E-Mail oder beides, wenn ein
+ Befund zur Warnung oder Gefahr wird und wenn er wieder in Ordnung ist. Die Nachrichten
+ enthalten nur, was die Add-ons melden, und den Namen des Servers. Die Seite richtet die Kanäle
+ ein, zeigt die Befehle, die der ntfy-Server für Benutzer, Thema und Token dieses Servers
+ braucht, und prüft, dass das Thema ohne Anmeldung geschlossen ist. Der Notifier läuft als
+ eigener Benutzer, nie als root.
