- 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

  • TLS handshake overhead within acceptable bounds (~15ms)
  • Linear scaling observed up to 100 concurrent requests
  • Memory usage stable (45MB idle → 78MB under load)

Key Optimization Recommendations (P1):

  1. Enable TLS session resumption (85% handshake reduction)
  2. Implement request timeout middleware
  3. Add connection limits
  4. Reduce JSON allocation overhead
  5. Optimize job manager locking (DashMap)
