feat: add self-enrollment workflow for automated PKI provisioning

- Phase 1: CLI args (--enroll flag), enroll module skeleton, config support
- Phase 2: Registration request, polling loop (24h timeout), main.rs integration
- Phase 3: PKI extraction, atomic cert writing, whitelist auto-append, mTLS transition
- Phase 4: E2E test suite, README/DEPLOYMENT docs, CI pipeline
- Phase 5: SPEC.md, API_DOCUMENTATION.md, CHANGELOG.md, ROADMAP.md sync

+## Enrollment Endpoints
+
+Enrollment endpoints enable new hosts to register with the Patch Manager and receive mTLS certificates for authenticated API access. These endpoints operate **without client certificate authentication** — security is enforced through rate limiting, single-use tokens, and admin approval workflows.
+
+**Base path:** `/api/v1/` (on the Patch Manager server)
+**Authentication:** None (pre-provisioning phase)
+**Transport:** HTTPS recommended; TLS verification intentionally relaxed on initial connection per security model
+
+> **Cross-reference:** [SPEC.md §4.2 Enrollment Workflow](./SPEC.md) · [DEPLOYMENT_SECURITY_GUIDE.md](./DEPLOYMENT_SECURITY_GUIDE.md)
+
+---
+
+### POST /api/v1/enroll
+
+**Description:** Initiates a host self-enrollment request with the Patch Manager. The manager assigns a unique polling token that the host uses to check approval status.
+
+**Authentication:** None (unauthenticated public endpoint)
+
+#### Request Body
+
+| Field | Type | Required | Description |
+|-------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `machine_id` | string | Yes | Linux machine-id from `/etc/machine-id` |
+| `fqdn` | string | Yes | Fully qualified domain name of the host |
+| `ip_address` | string | Yes | Primary non-loopback IPv4 address |
+| `os_details` | object | Yes | OS metadata (free-form JSON object) |
+
+**`os_details` common fields:**
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `name` | string | Distribution name (e.g., `Debian`, `Ubuntu`) |
+| `version_id` | string | OS version identifier (e.g., `12`, `24.04`) |
+| `kernel` | string | Kernel release string (e.g., `6.1.0-kali9-amd64`) |
+| `id_like` | string | Family identifier (e.g., `debian`) |
+
+#### Request Example
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST https://manager.example.com/api/v1/enroll \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "machine_id": "a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6",
+    "fqdn": "host-01.example.com",
+    "ip_address": "192.168.1.50",
+    "os_details": {
+      "name": "Debian",
+      "version_id": "12",
+      "kernel": "6.1.0-kali9-amd64",
+      "id_like": "debian"
+    }
+  }'
+```
+
+#### Success Response (202 Accepted)
+
+```json
+{
+  "polling_token": "aB3dE6gH9jK2mN5pQ8rS1tU4vW7xY0zA"
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `polling_token` | string | 64-character alphanumeric bearer token for status polling. **Treat as secret credential.** |
+
+#### Error Responses
+
+| HTTP Status | Body | Description |
+|-------------|------|-------------|
+| `429` | `{ "error": "Rate limit exceeded. Try again in a minute." }` | Rate limit exceeded: 1 request/minute per source IP |
+| `500` | `{ "error": "Database error" }` | Internal server or database error |
+
+---
+
+### GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}
+
+**Description:** Returns the current approval status of an enrollment request. When approved, the response includes the complete PKI bundle (CA certificate, server certificate, and server private key) needed for mTLS provisioning.
+
+**Authentication:** None (token serves as bearer credential)
+
+#### Path Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Description |
+|-----------|------|-------------|
+| `token` | string | 64-character alphanumeric polling token from `POST /enroll` response |
+
+#### Response Format
+
+The endpoint returns a **tagged JSON object** with a `status` discriminator field. All responses return HTTP `200 OK` — the `status` value determines the outcome.
+
+##### Pending (Awaiting Admin Approval)
+
+```json
+{ "status": "pending" }
+```
+
+The enrollment request has been received and is awaiting administrator review. The host should continue polling at regular intervals.
+
+##### Approved (PKI Bundle Provided)
+
+```json
+{
+  "status": "approved",
+  "ca_crt": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\nMIID...\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----",
+  "server_crt": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\nMIID...\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----",
+  "server_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nMIGH...\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----"
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `status` | string | Always `"approved"` for this variant |
+| `ca_crt` | string | PEM-encoded CA root certificate (for TLS verification) |
+| `server_crt` | string | PEM-encoded server certificate (manager's TLS leaf) |
+| `server_key` | string | PEM-encoded server private key (PKCS#8 format) |
+
+##### Denied
+
+```json
+{ "status": "denied" }
+```
+
+The administrator has rejected the enrollment request. The host should abort the enrollment process.
+
+##### Not Found (Token Expired or Invalid)
+
+```json
+{ "status": "not_found" }
+```
+
+The polling token does not match any pending or approved enrollment. This occurs when:
+- The token has expired (default TTL: 24 hours)
+- The token was never issued
+- The enrollment was already fulfilled and purged
+
+#### curl Examples
+
+```bash
+# Check enrollment status
+curl https://manager.example.com/api/v1/enroll/status/aB3dE6gH9jK2mN5pQ8rS1tU4vW7xY0zA
+
+# Extract PKI bundle when approved
+curl -s https://manager.example.com/api/v1/enroll/status/$TOKEN | jq -r '.ca_crt' > /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.crt
+curl -s https://manager.example.com/api/v1/enroll/status/$TOKEN | jq -r '.server_crt' > /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.crt

+
+**Step Details:**
+
+| Step | Action | Details |
+|------|--------|---------|
+| 1 | Host sends enrollment request | Extracts identity from `/etc/machine-id`, hostname, network interfaces, and OS release data |
+| 2 | Manager returns polling token | Token is 64-character random alphanumeric string; SHA256 hash stored in database |
+| 3 | Admin reviews pending requests | Manager exposes admin API for listing/approving/denying enrollment requests |
+| 4 | Host polls status periodically | Default interval: 60 seconds. Configurable via `--poll-interval` flag |
+| 5 | Host receives PKI bundle on approval | Complete CA chain, server certificate, and private key in PEM format |
+| 6 | Host provisions mTLS infrastructure | Writes certificates to configured paths, updates IP whitelist, transitions to authenticated mode |
+
+---
+
+### Rate Limiting
+
+| Endpoint | Limit | Window | Scope |
+|----------|-------|--------|-------|
+| `POST /api/v1/enroll` | 1 request | Per minute | Per source IP address |
+| `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}` | No explicit limit | — | Host-controlled polling interval |
+
+**Rate Limit Enforcement:**
+- POST `/enroll`: Enforced by manager using in-memory LRU cache keyed on source IP (or `X-Forwarded-For` first entry when behind reverse proxy)
+- Status endpoint: No server-side rate limiting; client controls poll frequency (default: 60s interval)
+
+---
+
+### Security Notes
+
+| Concern | Mitigation |
+|---------|------------|
+| **Initial connection security** | TLS verification disabled on enrollment client (`danger_accept_invalid_certs`). Manager approval workflow provides authorization — transport encryption is secondary during pre-provisioning phase |
+| **Token secrecy** | Polling token is a 64-character random alphanumeric bearer credential. Never log the raw token value (only hash stored in DB). Tokens expire after 24 hours by default |
+| **Host identity** | `machine_id` from `/etc/machine-id` provides unique host identification. Combined with FQDN and IP for collision detection during admin approval |
+| **FQDN/IP collision** | Admin approval checks existing hosts table — rejects enrollment if FQDN or IP already registered to another host (HTTP 409 Conflict) |
+| **Certificate isolation** | Each approved host receives a unique client certificate signed by internal CA. Certificates have max 1-year validity |
+
+---
+
+### Error Reference Table
+
+| HTTP Status | Error Context | Description | Retryable |
+|-------------|---------------|-------------|----------|
+| `429` | POST /enroll | Rate limit exceeded (1/min per IP) | Yes — wait 60s |
+| `409` | Admin approve endpoint | FQDN or IP collision with existing host | No — resolve conflict first |
+| `500` | Any enrollment endpoint | Database error or internal server failure | Yes — transient |
+| `200` `{ "status": "denied" }` | GET /enroll/status/{token} | Administrator rejected request | No — contact administrator |
+| `200` `{ "status": "not_found" }` | GET /enroll/status/{token} | Token expired, invalid, or already consumed | No — re-enroll with new request |

+## Self-Enrollment Deployment
+
+Self-enrollment allows a new host to automatically request and receive mTLS certificates from the `linux_patch_manager` without manual PKI distribution. The daemon extracts its machine identity, registers with the manager, polls for admin approval, and provisions certificates before starting the mTLS server.
+
+### How It Works
+
+The enrollment workflow operates in three phases:
+
+1. **Registration:** Extracts `/etc/machine-id`, FQDN, IP address, and OS details. Submits an unauthenticated `POST /api/v1/enroll` request to the manager. Receives a temporary `polling_token`.
+2. **Polling & Approval:** Enters a polling loop querying `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}` (default: every 60 seconds, up to 1440 attempts = 24 hours). Aborts on HTTP 403/404 (denied/purged).
+3. **Provisioning:** On HTTP 200, downloads the PKI bundle (`ca.crt`, `server.crt`, `server.key`), writes certificates to configured mTLS paths, appends manager IP to whitelist, and transitions to standard mTLS listening mode.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+| Requirement | Details |
+|-------------|---------|
+| Manager URL | Must be accessible from the host (HTTPS) |
+| Network Connectivity | Outbound HTTPS to manager endpoint |
+| DNS Resolution | Manager hostname must resolve correctly |
+| systemd | Version 237+ for service management |
+| Root Access | Required for certificate file writes |
+
+**Verification before enrollment:**
+```bash
+# Verify network connectivity to manager
+curl -I https://manager.example.com
+
+# Verify DNS resolution
+nslookup manager.example.com
+
+# Verify outbound HTTPS works
+curl -ks https://manager.example.com/api/v1/health
+```
+
+### Step-by-Step Enrollment Procedure
+
+#### Step 1: Install linux-patch-api Package
+
+```bash
+# Debian/Ubuntu
+dpkg -i linux-patch-api_1.0.0-1_amd64.deb
+
+# RHEL/CentOS/Fedora
+rpm -ivh linux-patch-api-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Run Enrollment Command
+
+```bash
+# Basic enrollment with manager URL
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com
+
+# With verbose logging for troubleshooting
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com --verbose
+```
+
+The enrollment process will:
+- Extract machine identity from `/etc/machine-id` and system properties
+- Submit registration request to manager
+- Enter polling loop (logs progress every 60 seconds)
+- Await admin approval on the manager side
+- Download and install certificates automatically
+- Update IP whitelist with manager address
+- Start mTLS server upon successful provisioning
+
+#### Step 3: Monitor Enrollment Progress
+
+```bash
+# View enrollment logs in real-time
+journalctl -u linux-patch-api -f
+
+# Or if running manually:
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com --verbose
+```
+
+**Expected log progression:**
+```
+INFO Enrollment mode activated - manager_url=https://manager.example.com
+INFO Phase 1: Submitting registration request
+INFO Registration submitted - polling_token=abc123...
+INFO Phase 2: Polling for approval (interval=60s, max_attempts=1440)
+INFO Poll attempt 1/1440 - status=pending
+... (admin approves on manager side) ...
+INFO Phase 3: Provisioning certificates
+INFO ca.pem written to /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem
+INFO server.pem written to /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.pem
+INFO server.key written to /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.key
+INFO Manager IP added to whitelist
+INFO Enrollment complete - proceeding to server startup
+```
+
+#### Step 4: Admin Approval (Manager Side)
+
+On the `linux_patch_manager` dashboard:
+1. Navigate to Pending Enrollments
+2. Review host details (machine-id, FQDN, IP, OS)
+3. Approve the enrollment request
+4. Manager provisions PKI bundle and signals approval
+
+#### Step 5: Verify Successful Enrollment
+
+```bash
+# Check service is running
+systemctl status linux-patch-api
+
+# Verify certificates exist
+ls -la /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/
+
+# Test mTLS connection
+curl --cacert /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem \
+     --cert /path/to/client.pem \
+     --key /path/to/client.key.pem \
+     https://localhost:12443/health
+```
+
+### Configuration Options
+
+Enrollment behavior can be tuned via the `enrollment` section in `/etc/linux_patch_api/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+# Enrollment Configuration
+enrollment:
+  polling_interval_seconds: 60    # Time between approval polls (default: 60)
+  max_poll_attempts: 1440         # Maximum poll attempts (default: 1440 = 24 hours)
+```
+
+**Parameter Reference:**
+
+| Parameter | Default | Description |
+|-----------|---------|-------------|
+| `polling_interval_seconds` | 60 | Seconds between approval status polls. Minimum: 10 |
+| `max_poll_attempts` | 1440 | Maximum polling attempts before timeout. Effective timeout = interval × attempts |
+
+**Effective Timeout Calculation:**
+- Default: 60s × 1440 = 86,400 seconds (24 hours)
+- Custom example: 30s × 720 = 21,600 seconds (6 hours)
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Resolution |
+|---------|-------|------------|
+| `Enrollment failed: connection refused` | Manager not reachable | Verify manager URL, check firewall rules |
+| `Enrollment failed: DNS resolution error` | Hostname cannot resolve | Check `/etc/resolv.conf`, verify DNS |
+| `HTTP 403 - Enrollment denied` | Admin rejected request | Contact manager admin to approve enrollment |
+| `HTTP 404 - Token not found` | Token expired/purged | Re-run enrollment command with `--enroll` flag |
+| `Polling timeout after N attempts` | Max attempts exceeded | Increase `max_poll_attempts` in config, re-enroll |
+| `Rate limited: 429 Too Many Requests` | Polling too frequently | Ensure `polling_interval_seconds >= 10` |
+| `Permission denied writing certificates` | Insufficient privileges | Run with `sudo` or as root user |
+| `Whitelist update failed` | File permission issue | Verify `/etc/linux_patch_api/` is writable by service user |
+
+**Diagnostic Commands:**
+```bash
+# Check enrollment logs
+journalctl -u linux-patch-api --since "1 hour ago"
+
+# Test manager connectivity
+curl -v https://manager.example.com/api/v1/enroll
+
+# Verify DNS resolution
+dig manager.example.com
+nslookup manager.example.com
+
+# Check certificate paths are writable
+ls -la /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/
+sudo touch /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/test && sudo rm /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/test
+```
+
+### Post-Enrollment Verification
+
+After successful enrollment, verify the following:
+
+1. **Certificate Files Exist:**
+   ```bash
+   ls -la /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/
+   # Expected: ca.pem (644), server.pem (644), server.key (600)
+   ```
+
+2. **Certificate Validity:**
+   ```bash
+   openssl x509 -in /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.pem -text -noout | grep -A2 "Validity"
+   openssl x509 -in /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem -text -noout | grep -A2 "Validity"
+   ```
+
+3. **Whitelist Contains Manager IP:**
+   ```bash
+   cat /etc/linux_patch_api/whitelist.yaml
+   # Should contain manager IP address in entries list
+   ```
+
+4. **mTLS Connection Test:**
+   ```bash
+   curl --cacert /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem \
+        --cert /path/to/client.pem \
+        --key /path/to/client.key.pem \
+        https://localhost:12443/health
+   # Expected: {"status": "ok"}
+   ```
+
+5. **Service Status:**
+   ```bash
+   systemctl status linux-patch-api
+   # Expected: active (running)
+   ```
+
+### Rollback and Re-Enrollment
+
+#### Removing Enrolled Certificates
+
+```bash
+# Stop the service
+sudo systemctl stop linux-patch-api
+
+# Remove provisioned certificates
+sudo rm -f /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem
+sudo rm -f /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.pem
+sudo rm -f /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.key
+
+# Revert whitelist (remove manager IP entry)
+sudo vi /etc/linux_patch_api/whitelist.yaml
+```
+
+#### Re-Enrolling a Host
+
+```bash
+# Run enrollment again with same or different manager
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com
+
+# Or enroll with a different manager
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://new-manager.example.com
+```
+
+**Notes:**
+- Re-enrollment overwrites existing certificates in the configured paths
+- The previous polling token is discarded; a new registration request is submitted
+- If re-enrolling with the same manager, ensure the old enrollment was purged or approved
+
+### Enrollment vs Manual Certificate Deployment
+
+| Aspect | Self-Enrollment | Manual PKI |
+|--------|----------------|------------|
+| Certificate distribution | Automatic from manager | Manual SCP/copy |
+| Whitelist management | Auto-populated with manager IP | Manual configuration |
+| Admin approval required | Yes (on manager side) | N/A |
+| Network dependency | Requires outbound HTTPS to manager | None after cert distribution |
+| Best for | Large-scale deployments, automation | Air-gapped environments, single hosts |

+## Usage Examples
+
+### Standard Startup (Existing Certificates)
+
+When certificates are already provisioned, start with the configuration path:
+
+```bash
+sudo linux-patch-api --config /etc/linux_patch_api/config.yaml
+```
+
+Or via systemd (recommended for production):
+
+```bash
+systemctl enable linux-patch-api
+systemctl start linux-patch-api
+```
+
+### Self-Enrollment with Manager
+
+Bootstrap a new host by automatically requesting certificates from the manager:
+
+```bash
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com
+```
+
+The enrollment workflow:
+1. Extracts machine identity (`/etc/machine-id`, FQDN, OS details)
+2. Registers with manager (`POST /api/v1/enroll`)
+3. Polls for admin approval (default: every 60 seconds, up to 24 hours)
+4. Downloads PKI bundle on approval
+5. Writes certificates and updates whitelist automatically
+6. Starts mTLS server without requiring a restart
+
+```bash
+# Enrollment with verbose logging
+sudo linux-patch-api --enroll https://manager.example.com --verbose
+```
+
+For detailed enrollment procedures, see [DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md - Self-Enrollment Deployment](./DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md#self-enrollment-deployment).

+- **Distribution:** Manual certificate distribution OR automated Self-Enrollment
+  - Self-Enrollment provides automatic PKI provisioning after admin approval on linux_patch_manager
+  - Eliminates manual certificate copy/permission management for new hosts
 - **Scope:** Limited distribution (small number of authorized clients)
 - **Validity Period:** 1 year standard expiration
 - **Client Identity:** Unique certificate per client (no shared certs)
 - **Rotation:** Manual renewal process before expiration
 
+## Self-Enrollment Workflow
+
+The `linux_patch_api` daemon supports an automated self-enrollment workflow to securely request identity from the `linux_patch_manager` without manual PKI distribution.
+
+### CLI Invocation
+```
+linux-patch-api --enroll https://<manager_url>
+```
+The enrollment flow runs before mTLS server startup. On success, the daemon proceeds to normal server initialization with the newly provisioned certificates.
+
+### Security Model
+- Initial connection uses TLS with verification disabled (`danger_accept_invalid_certs`)
+- Manager approval workflow provides authorization; transport encryption is secondary during enrollment
+- URL scheme validation prevents SSRF/path traversal (only `http` and `https` permitted)
+- Host component required in manager URL
+
+### Phase 1: Registration Request
+- **Identity Extraction:**
+  - `/etc/machine-id` (fallback: `/var/lib/dbus/machine-id`)
+  - FQDN from `/etc/hostname` → `hostname -f` → `hostname` → `localhost`
+  - Non-loopback IPv4 addresses via network interface enumeration
+  - OS details from `/etc/os-release` (distro, version, id_like, codename) + kernel version (`uname -r`)
+- **Submission:** Unauthenticated `POST /api/v1/enroll` to manager with identity payload
+- **Response:** HTTP 202 with temporary `polling_token` (bearer credential — never logged)
+- **Rate Limiting:** Manager enforces 1 request/minute per IP (HTTP 429 on violation)
+
+### Phase 2: Polling & Approval
+- **Polling Loop:** `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}` with configurable interval and max attempts
+- **Default Interval:** 60 seconds (configurable via `enrollment.polling_interval_seconds`)
+- **Hard Timeout:** 24 hours maximum (1440 attempts; values >1440 clamped to 1440)
+- **Status States:**
+  - `pending`: Continue polling
+  - `approved`: Proceed to Phase 3 with PKI bundle
+  - `denied`: Abort enrollment (`ENROLLMENT_DENIED`)

+
+| Flag | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `--config <PATH>` or `-c` | Path to configuration file (default: `/etc/linux_patch_api/config.yaml`) |
+| `--verbose` or `-v` | Enable verbose (DEBUG-level) logging |
+| `--enroll <MANAGER_URL>` | Run self-enrollment flow with manager at URL, then start mTLS server |
+| `--version` or `-V` | Print version information and exit |
+| `--help` or `-h` | Display help information and exit |
+
+### Enrollment Mode Behavior
+- When `--enroll` is specified, the daemon executes the self-enrollment flow before starting the mTLS server
+- On enrollment success: proceeds to normal server startup with provisioned certificates
+- On enrollment failure: exits immediately with error code (no server started)
+- TLS verification disabled on initial manager connection (manager approval workflow provides security)
+
 - **Phase 1 Acceptance Criteria:**
   - All endpoints functional with mTLS authentication
   - IP whitelist enforced correctly

+# Self-Enrollment Feature - Phased Development Plan
+
+**Feature:** Automated self-enrollment workflow for linux_patch_api daemon
+**Spec Reference:** SPEC.md lines 145-161
+**Target Branch:** `feat/self-enrollment`
+**Status:** Planning - Awaiting Kelly Approval
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+The self-enrollment feature enables a new `linux_patch_api` instance to automatically register with the `linux_patch_manager`, request PKI credentials, and transition to mTLS-secured operation without manual certificate distribution.
+
+### Three Phases (per SPEC)
+| Phase | Description | Manager Endpoint |
+|-------|-------------|------------------|
+| **Phase 1: Registration** | Extract host identity → POST unauthenticated enrollment request → receive `polling_token` | `POST /api/v1/enroll` |
+| **Phase 2: Polling** | Poll manager for approval status every 60s → abort on denied/not_found | `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}` |
+| **Phase 3: Provisioning** | Extract PKI bundle → write certs to disk → append manager IP to whitelist → transition to mTLS mode | (response body of status endpoint) |
+
+### Manager API Schemas (verified from linux_patch_manager source)
+
+#### `POST /api/v1/enroll`
+- **Request Body:**
+  ```json
+  {
+    "machine_id": "<string>",
+    "fqdn": "<string>",
+    "ip_address": "<string>",
+    "os_details": { /* JSON object: distro, version, kernel, etc. */ }
+  }
+  ```
+- **Success Response (202 Accepted):**
+  ```json
+  {
+    "polling_token": "<64-char alphanumeric string>"
+  }
+  ```
+- **Rate Limit:** 1 request per minute per IP (returns 429 if exceeded)
+- **Auth:** None (unauthenticated - manager approval process provides security)
+
+#### `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}`
+- **Response (tagged enum with `status` field):**
+  ```json
+  { "status": "pending" }                    // Still waiting for admin approval
+  {
+    "status": "approved",
+    "ca_crt": "<PEM string>",
+    "server_crt": "<PEM string>",
+    "server_key": "<PEM string>"
+  }                                           // Approved - extract PKI bundle
+  { "status": "denied" }                     // Admin rejected request
+  { "status": "not_found" }                  // Token expired/invalid/purged
+  ```
+
+### Design Decisions (Confirmed with Kelly)
+| Decision | Value |
+|----------|-------|
+| **Certificate paths** | Write to existing mTLS config paths from `config.yaml` (no separate enrollment directory) |
+| **Insecure enrollment** | Default - skip TLS verification on manager connection (approval process provides security) |
+| **Polling timeout** | 24 hours maximum (86400 seconds, ~1440 attempts at 60s interval) |
+| **Branch strategy** | Merge incrementally to `main` after each phase completes |
+| **Cross-distro requirement** | All code must be functional across Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS/Fedora, Alpine, Arch Linux |
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1 - Foundation & CLI Integration
+
+**Goal:** Add enrollment CLI flag, new `enroll` module skeleton, config support for enrollment state.
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 1.1: CLI Argument Extension
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/main.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Add `--enroll <MANAGER_URL>` flag to clap Args struct (required positional or named)
+  - TLS verification is disabled by default on manager connection (insecure enrollment) - manager approval process provides security
+  - Wire enrollment entry point into main() before server startup
+- **Output Contract:** Updated main.rs with new CLI args compiled and tested across all target distros
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 1.2: Enroll Module Skeleton
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/enroll/mod.rs`, `src/enroll/identity.rs`, `src/enroll/client.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Create new `enroll` module with submodules
+  - `identity.rs`: Functions to extract machine-id, FQDN, IP addresses, OS details (distro, version, kernel)
+  - `client.rs`: HTTP client wrapper for manager API communication (use reqwest)
+  - Define Rust structs: `EnrollmentRequest`, `EnrollmentResponse`, `PollingStatus`, `PkiBundle`
+- **Output Contract:** Module compiles cleanly; identity extraction functions return correct data
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 1.3: Config State Support
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/config/loader.rs`, `configs/config.yaml.example`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Add optional `enrollment` section to config schema:
+    ```yaml
+    enrollment:
+      manager_url: ""
+      polling_token: ""
+      polling_interval_seconds: 60
+      max_poll_attempts: 1440  # 24 hours at 60s intervals (86400 seconds)
+    ```
+  - Add persistence of polling token to config file during Phase 2
+- **Output Contract:** Config loads with new enrollment section; backward compatible with existing configs
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 1.4: Unit Tests for Identity Extraction
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `tests/unit/enroll_identity.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Test machine-id extraction from `/etc/machine-id`
+  - Test FQDN resolution fallback chain
+  - Test OS detail extraction (distro ID, version, kernel)
+- **Output Contract:** All identity tests pass in CI
+
+### Phase 1 Dependencies
+- Add `reqwest` crate to Cargo.toml (HTTP client for manager API)
+- No breaking changes to existing modules
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2 - Registration & Polling Logic
+
+**Goal:** Implement Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the enrollment workflow.
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 2.1: Registration Request Implementation
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/enroll/client.rs`, `src/enroll/mod.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Implement `POST /api/v1/enroll` request handler in client
+  - Build JSON body with machine-id, FQDN, IPs, OS details
+  - Parse response for `polling_token`
+  - Handle error responses (400, 409 duplicate, 500)
+- **Output Contract:** Registration function returns polling_token or structured error
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 2.2: Polling Loop Implementation
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/enroll/client.rs`, `src/enroll/mod.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Implement polling loop with configurable interval (default 60s)
+  - `GET /api/v1/enroll/status/{token}` endpoint calls
+  - Handle responses per manager API enum:
+    - `{status: "approved"}` → proceed to provisioning with PKI bundle
+    - `{status: "denied"}` → abort with clear error message (admin rejected)
+    - `{status: "not_found"}` → abort (token expired/invalid/purged)
+    - `{status: "pending"}` → continue polling
+  - Hard timeout: 24 hours maximum (1440 attempts at 60s interval) per Kelly's directive
+  - Graceful shutdown on SIGINT/SIGTERM during polling
+  - **Cross-distro note:** Use `tokio::time::sleep` (async, no platform-specific timers)
+- **Output Contract:** Polling loop works correctly with all response codes
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 2.3: Main.rs Enrollment Entry Point
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/main.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Wire `--enroll` flag to call enrollment flow before server startup
+  - If enrollment succeeds, fall through to normal mTLS server startup
+  - If enrollment fails, exit with non-zero code and clear error message
+  - Logging: structured logs for each enrollment step
+- **Output Contract:** `linux_patch_api --enroll https://manager.example.com` runs end-to-end (mock manager)
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 2.4: Integration Tests
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `tests/integration/enrollment_test.rs`
+- **Changes:**
+  - Mock manager server that simulates enrollment workflow
+  - Test successful enrollment flow
+  - Test denied enrollment (403 response)

+    ```rust
+    // Default paths matching existing mTLS config
+    /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/ca.pem
+    /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.pem
+    /etc/linux_patch_api/certs/server.key.pem

+    - Key: 0o600 (owner rw only)
+  - Atomic write pattern: write to temp file → rename
+  - Handle existing files: backup before overwrite if present
+  - Verify written files are readable after creation
+- **Output Contract:** Certificates written with correct permissions and content
+
+### Sub-Agent Task 3.3: Whitelist Auto-Append
+- **Profile:** developer
+- **Files:** `src/auth/whitelist.rs`, `src/enroll/provision.rs`

+- **Changes:**
+  - Review for security issues:
+    - Certificate validation (don't skip TLS verification in production)
+    - Secure file permissions enforcement
+    - No sensitive data in logs (polling_token, cert contents)
+    - Input validation on manager URL (scheme, host format)
+    - Protection against MITM during enrollment (recommend `--enroll-verify` flag)
+  - Document findings in security review notes
+- **Output Contract:** Security review checklist completed with mitigations applied
+

+
+## Execution Order & Parallelism
+
+```
+Phase 1: [1.1] [1.2] [1.3] → sequential (CLI → module → config)
+         ↘ [1.4] parallel with 1.2-1.3
+
+Phase 2: [2.1] → [2.2] → [2.3] → sequential (registration → polling → wiring)
+         ↘ [2.4] after 2.3 complete
+
+Phase 3: [3.1] [3.2] [3.3] → can run in parallel (PKI, certs, whitelist are independent)
+         ↘ [3.4] depends on all of 3.1-3.3
+         ↘ [3.5] runs after Phase 3 code complete
+
+Phase 4: [4.1] [4.2] [4.3] → parallel (tests, docs, CI independent)
+
+Phase 5: [5.1]-[5.6] → can run in parallel (each doc file is independent)
+         ↘ [5.7] after 5.1-5.6 (config examples depend on finalized config schema)
+         ↘ [5.8] final audit depends on ALL Phase 5 tasks complete
+```
+
+**Estimated Total Effort:** ~10 sub-agent cycles across 5 phases
+
+---
+
+## Risks & Considerations
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|------|------------|
+| Manager API contract mismatch | Verify exact request/response schemas with deployed manager code before Phase 2 |
+| Certificate path conflicts | Use config-defined paths, not hardcoded; validate against existing mTLS config |
+| File permission issues on non-Linux targets | Scope to Linux only per spec; document limitation |
+| Enrollment during active API service | Enrollment runs pre-server-startup per design; no conflict |
+| Token expiry during long polling | Configurable max_poll_attempts; log warnings at intervals |
+
+---
+
+## Pre-Development Checklist

+
+## Security Checklist Results
+
+### 1. TLS/Transport Security
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 1.1 | `danger_accept_invalid_certs(true)` usage | **INFO** | Line `client.rs:90`. Disabled per project security model — manager approval workflow provides authorization, not initial transport encryption. Documented in code comments (lines 71-73). This is an **accepted architectural risk**. |
+| 1.2 | No sensitive data logged in plaintext | **PASS** | ~~FAIL~~ **FIXED (C-001)**: `client.rs:209-211` — Polling token removed from `tracing::info!` macro. Replaced with credential-safe log message that never exposes the bearer token. Verified no other locations log raw polling_token via full codebase grep. |
+| 1.3 | Manager URL input validation (scheme must be http/https) | **PASS** | ~~FAIL~~ **FIXED (H-001)**: `client.rs:93-124` — Added `url::Url::parse()` validation in `EnrollmentClient::new()`. Rejects non-http/https schemes with panic. Validates host component exists before building reqwest client. Prevents SSRF/path traversal via dangerous schemes. |
+
+### 2. Certificate Handling
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 2.1 | PEM validation catches malformed/truncated certificates | **PASS** | `provision.rs:24-51`: `validate_pem()` checks for BEGIN/END markers, rejects empty data, validates expected type (CERTIFICATE, PRIVATE KEY, RSA PRIVATE KEY, EC PRIVATE KEY). Comprehensive test coverage in lines 232-286. |
+| 2.2 | File permissions enforced: key=0o600, certs=0o644 | **PASS** | `provision.rs:100`: `OpenOptions::new().mode(if is_key { 0o600 } else { 0o644 })`. Verified by unit tests at lines 312-338. |
+| 2.3 | Atomic write prevents partial certificate writes | **PASS** | `provision.rs:93-117`: Writes to `.tmp` file in same directory, then atomic `fs::rename()`. Prevents partial reads by concurrent processes. |
+| 2.4 | Backup of existing certs before overwrite (.bak pattern) | **PASS** | `provision.rs:81-89`: Existing files renamed to `.bak` before new write. Verified by test at lines 342-360. |
+| 2.5 | No certificate contents logged or printed to stdout | **PASS** | `provision.rs:178-183`: Only file paths are logged, never PEM content. PKI bundle data flows through memory only during provisioning phase. |
+
+### 3. Whitelist Security
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 3.1 | Manager IP validation (IPv4 only, no injection via CIDR tricks) | **PASS** | `whitelist.rs:96-108`: Strict parsing via `Ipv4Addr::parse()` for single IPs and explicit prefix bounds check (`prefix <= 32`) for CIDR. Hostnames rejected in auto-append path (only IPv4/CIDR accepted). |
+| 3.2 | Duplicate detection prevents whitelist bloat | **PASS** | Double-checked locking pattern at `whitelist.rs:112-153`: In-memory duplicate check before lock, then post-lock re-check to prevent concurrent append races. |
+| 3.3 | File locking prevents concurrent modification races | **PASS** | `whitelist.rs:129-136`: Exclusive file lock via `fs2::FileExt::lock_exclusive()` on `.lock` companion file. Lock released explicitly before reload (`drop(lock_file)` at line 203). |
+| 3.4 | Atomic write prevents YAML corruption | **PASS** | `whitelist.rs:179-200`: Writes to `.tmp` file, then atomic `fs::rename()`. Same pattern as PKI provisioning. |
+| 3.5 | Audit logging of all whitelist changes | **PASS** | `whitelist.rs:209-215`: Structured log with action=`whitelist_append`, source=`enrollment`, IP value, and total entry count. Duplicate skips also logged (lines 116-122). |
+
+### 4. Polling/DoS Protection
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 4.1 | 24-hour hard timeout enforced (1440 attempts) | **PASS** | `client.rs:312-316`: `effective_max` clamped to max 1440. Default config value also 1440 (`loader.rs:123-125`). Combined with 60s default interval = ~24 hours maximum. |
+| 4.2 | Signal handling allows graceful shutdown | **PASS** | `client.rs:328-373`: SIGINT and SIGTERM handlers via `tokio::signal::unix`. Both return clean error variants (`"Enrollment interrupted by user"` / `"Enrollment interrupted by system signal"`). |
+| 4.3 | No infinite retry loops on transient errors | **PASS** | `client.rs:331`: Bounded loop `for attempt in 1..=effective_max`. Transient errors at lines 350-358 consume one attempt iteration and sleep, then continue — never infinite. |
+| 4.4 | Polling token never logged or exposed in error messages | **PASS** | ~~FAIL~~ **FIXED (C-001)**: `client.rs:209-213` — Polling token removed from structured logging. Credential-safe log message used instead. Full codebase grep confirms no other locations expose raw polling_token to logs. |
+
+### 5. Identity Exposure
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 5.1 | Machine ID, FQDN, IPs sent to manager acceptable (unauthenticated endpoint) | **PASS** | `identity.rs`: Standard system identifiers only. Machine-id is a stable hardware identifier (32-char hex). These are expected enrollment attributes for a patch management system. |
+| 5.2 | OS details don't leak sensitive kernel patches or security config | **PASS** | `identity.rs:92-140`: Only reads `/etc/os-release` fields NAME, VERSION_ID, ID_LIKE, VERSION_CODENAME + kernel version from `uname -r`. No /etc/shadow, no patch history, no security policy details. |
+| 5.3 | No credentials or keys transmitted during enrollment | **PASS** | Enrollment request (`client.rs:174-179`) contains only machine_id, fqdn, ip_address, os_details. No certificates, keys, tokens, or passwords sent in the registration phase. |
+
+### 6. Dependency Security
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 6.1 | reqwest with rustls-tls backend (no native OpenSSL) | **PASS** | `Cargo.toml:67`: `reqwest = { version = "0.12", features = ["json", "rustls-tls"] }`. Uses pure-Rust TLS stack, no OpenSSL dependency chain. |
+| 6.2 | if-addrs, fs2, url are well-maintained crates | **PASS** | `if-addrs` v0.13 (4.5M+ downloads on crates.io), `fs2` v0.4 (stable file locking crate, ~25M downloads), `url` v2 (core Rust ecosystem crate, 170M+ downloads). All actively maintained with recent releases. |
+| 6.3 | No known CVEs in new dependencies | **PASS** | As of review date (2026-05-16): reqwest 0.12.x — no active CVEs; if-addrs 0.13 — no known issues; fs2 0.4 — no known issues; url 2.x — no known issues. rustls-tls backend uses aws-lc-rs which has no public CVEs. |
+
+### 7. Error Handling
+
+| # | Check | Status | Details |
+|---|-------|--------|---------|
+| 7.1 | Errors don't leak internal paths or system details to logs | **PASS** | Error messages use `anyhow::Context` with user-friendly descriptions. File paths are included in context but only for the local daemon's own operations — not exposed over network. |
+| 7.2 | Failed enrollment leaves system in clean state (no partial certs) | **FAIL** | `provision.rs:168-175`: Three sequential `write_pem_file()` calls with no transaction rollback. If CA cert write succeeds but server key write fails, the system has a partial PKI bundle on disk (CA cert written, server cert/key missing). No cleanup of partially provisioned files. |
+| 7.3 | Rollback on provision failure (remove partial files) | **FAIL** | Same as 7.2 — no rollback mechanism exists. On mid-provision failure, operator must manually clean up partial certificate files. |

+| M-001 | **No PKI provisioning rollback on partial failure** | `src/enroll/provision.rs:168-175` | Medium | Implement transactional provisioning: collect all file paths before writing, and if any write fails, remove all successfully written files from this attempt (not the .bak files). Alternatively, write all PEMs to temp directory first, then rename atomically. |
+| M-002 | **Kernel version exposed in enrollment payload** | `src/enroll/identity.rs:130-137` | Medium | Kernel version (`uname -r`) is sent to manager during registration. While not critical for most threat models, it aids attacker fingerprinting. Consider making kernel version optional or redacting patch-level details (e.g., send `6.1.x` instead of `6.1.89-rt29`). |
+
+### 🔵 INFO (2)
+
+| ID | Issue | Location | Severity | Recommendation |
+|----|-------|----------|----------|----------------|
+| I-001 | **TLS verification disabled during enrollment** | `src/enroll/client.rs:90` | Info | Documented architectural decision. Manager approval workflow provides authorization. Consider adding optional TLS pinning in future phases where the operator can pre-provision a CA certificate for enrollment verification. |
+| I-002 | **Polling token stored in config** | `src/config/loader.rs:113` (`EnrollmentConfig.polling_token`) | Info | Config struct has a `polling_token` field that could persist sensitive tokens to disk in YAML format. Consider adding `#[serde(default)]` with comment noting this should not be persisted, or implement automatic token expiration/cleanup after enrollment completes. |
+
+---
+
+## Risk Acceptance Rationale
+
+| Accepted Risk | Rationale |
+|---------------|-----------|
+| `danger_accept_invalid_certs(true)` | The enrollment phase operates before mTLS is established. The manager approval workflow (human-in-the-loop authorization) provides the security boundary, not transport encryption. Once approved, the system provisions proper certificates and enforces strict mTLS with TLS 1.3 minimum. This is a documented trade-off for bootstrap feasibility. |
+
+---
+
+## Final Verdict: **APPROVED** (with recommended improvements)
+
+### All Blocking Issues Resolved
+- ✅ **C-001**: Polling token removed from plaintext logging — FIXED and verified via codebase grep
+- ✅ **H-001**: URL scheme validation added to `EnrollmentClient::new()` — FIXED, verified via `cargo check`
+
+### Recommended Before Production (non-blocking)
+3. **M-001**: Implement PKI provisioning rollback for clean failure state
+4. **M-002**: Consider kernel version redaction if threat model requires it
+
+### Non-blocking
+5. **I-001**, **I-002**: Documented for future hardening phases

+**Mistake:** Used CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_SYS_BOOT which dropped ALL capabilities except SYS_BOOT, blocking apt's _apt sandbox (setuid/setgid/setgroups/chown).

+//! Integration Tests for Enrollment Flow
+//!
+//! End-to-end enrollment tests using a mock manager server (wiremock).
+//! Validates registration, polling loop behavior, error handling, and timeout enforcement.
+//!
+//! # Test Strategy
+//! - wiremock provides an in-process HTTP mock server simulating the manager API
+//! - Real identity functions are used (machine-id, FQDN, IPs work in Docker)
+//! - Short polling intervals ensure tests complete quickly
+//! - serial_test prevents port conflicts between concurrent test runs
