ci(actions): add GHCR mirroring and cosign signing for Docker images

mirror images from Docker Hub to GHCR using skopeo (preserves multi-arch manifests)
login to GHCR via docker/login-action for signing/pushing
install cosign and perform dual signing: keyless (OIDC) + key-based; verify signatures
add required permissions for id-token/packages and reference necessary secrets

 Newt is a fully user space [WireGuard](https://www.wireguard.com/) tunnel client and TCP/UDP proxy, designed to securely expose private resources controlled by Pangolin. By using Newt, you don't need to manage complex WireGuard tunnels and NATing.

 #### Hostnames vs IPs
 
 When the Docker Socket Integration is used, depending on the network which Newt is run with, either the hostname (generally considered the container name) or the IP address of the container will be sent to Pangolin. Here are some of the scenarios where IPs or hostname of the container will be utilised:
 
--   **Running in Network Mode 'host'**: IP addresses will be used
--   **Running in Network Mode 'bridge'**: IP addresses will be used
--   **Running in docker-compose without a network specification**: Docker compose creates a network for the compose by default, hostnames will be used

+   - Export: Prometheus exposition (default), optional OTLP (gRPC)
+   - Existing instruments:
+     - Sites: newt_site_registrations_total, newt_site_online (0/1), newt_site_last_heartbeat_timestamp_seconds
+     - Tunnel/Traffic: newt_tunnel_sessions, newt_tunnel_bytes_total, newt_tunnel_latency_seconds, newt_tunnel_reconnects_total
+     - Connection lifecycle: newt_connection_attempts_total, newt_connection_errors_total
+     - Operations: newt_config_reloads_total, process_start_time_seconds, newt_build_info
+     - Operations: newt_config_reloads_total, process_start_time_seconds, newt_config_apply_seconds, newt_cert_rotation_total
+     - Build metadata: newt_build_info
+     - Control plane: newt_websocket_connect_latency_seconds, newt_websocket_messages_total, newt_websocket_connected, newt_websocket_reconnects_total
+     - Proxy: newt_proxy_active_connections, newt_proxy_buffer_bytes, newt_proxy_async_backlog_bytes, newt_proxy_drops_total, newt_proxy_accept_total, newt_proxy_connection_duration_seconds, newt_proxy_connections_total
+     - Go runtime: GC, heap, goroutines via runtime instrumentation
+
+2) Main issues addressed now
+
+   - Attribute filter (allow-list) extended to include site_id and region in addition to existing keys (tunnel_id, transport, protocol, direction, result, reason, error_type, version, commit).
+   - site_id and region propagation: site_id/region remain resource attributes. Metric labels mirror them on per-site gauges and counters by default; set `NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_SITE_LABELS=false` to drop them for multi-tenant scrapes.
+   - Label semantics clarified:
+     - transport: control-plane mechanism (e.g., websocket, wireguard)
+     - protocol: L4 payload type (tcp, udp)
+     - newt_tunnel_bytes_total uses protocol and direction, not transport.
+   - Robustness improvements: removed duplicate clear logic on reconnect; avoided empty site_id by reading NEWT_SITE_ID/NEWT_ID and OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES.
+
+3) Remaining gaps and deviations
+
+   - Some call sites still need initiator label on reconnect outcomes (client vs server). This is planned.
+   - Config apply duration and cert rotation counters are planned.
+   - Registration and config reload failures are not yet emitted; add failure code paths so result labels expose churn.
+   - Document using `process_start_time_seconds` (and `time()` in PromQL) to derive uptime; no explicit restart counter is needed.
+   - Metric helpers often use `context.Background()`. Where lightweight contexts exist (e.g., HTTP handlers), propagate them to ease future correlation.
+   - Tracing coverage is limited to admin HTTP and WebSocket connect spans; extend to blueprint fetches, proxy accept loops, and WireGuard updates when OTLP is enabled.
+
+4) Roadmap (phased)
+
+   - Phase 1 (done in this iteration)
+     - Fix attribute filter (site_id, region)
+     - Propagate site_id (and optional region) across metrics
+     - Correct label semantics (transport vs protocol); fix sessions transport labelling
+     - Documentation alignment
+   - Phase 2 (next)
+     - Reconnect: add initiator label (client/server)
+     - Config & PKI: newt_config_apply_seconds{phase,result}; newt_cert_rotation_total{result}
+     - WebSocket disconnect and keepalive failure counters
+     - Proxy connection lifecycle metrics (accept totals, duration histogram)
+     - Pangolin blueprint/config fetch latency and status metrics
+     - Certificate rotation duration histogram to complement success/failure counter
+
+5) Operational guidance
+
+   - Do not double scrape: scrape either Newt (/metrics) or the Collector’s Prometheus exporter (not both) to avoid double-counting cumulative counters.
+   - For high cardinality tunnel_id, consider relabeling or dropping per-tunnel series in Prometheus to control cardinality.
+   - OTLP troubleshooting: enable TLS via OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CERTIFICATE, use OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS for auth; verify endpoint reachability.
+
+6) Example alerts/recording rules (suggestions)
+
+   - Reconnect spikes:
+     - increase(newt_tunnel_reconnects_total[5m]) by (site_id)
+   - Sustained connection errors:
+     - rate(newt_connection_errors_total[5m]) by (site_id,transport,error_type)
+   - Heartbeat gaps:
+     - max_over_time(time() - newt_site_last_heartbeat_timestamp_seconds[15m]) by (site_id)
+   - Proxy drops:
+     - increase(newt_proxy_drops_total[5m]) by (site_id,protocol)
+   - WebSocket connect p95 (when added):
+     - histogram_quantile(0.95, sum(rate(newt_websocket_connect_latency_seconds_bucket[5m])) by (le,site_id))
+
+7) Collector configuration
+
+   - Direct scrape variant requires no attribute promotion since site_id is already a metric label.
+   - Transform/promote variant remains optional for environments that rely on resource-to-label promotion.

+# OpenTelemetry Observability for Newt
+
+This document describes how Newt exposes metrics using the OpenTelemetry (OTel) Go SDK, how to enable Prometheus scraping, and how to send data to an OpenTelemetry Collector for further export.
+
+Goals
+
+- Provide a /metrics endpoint in Prometheus exposition format (via OTel Prometheus exporter)
+- Keep metrics backend-agnostic; optional OTLP export to a Collector
+- Use OTel semantic conventions where applicable and enforce SI units
+- Low-cardinality, stable labels only
+
+Enable via flags (ENV mirrors)
+
+- --metrics (default: true) ↔ NEWT_METRICS_PROMETHEUS_ENABLED
+- --metrics-admin-addr (default: 127.0.0.1:2112) ↔ NEWT_ADMIN_ADDR
+- --otlp (default: false) ↔ NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED
+
+Enable exporters via environment variables (no code changes required)
+
+- NEWT_METRICS_PROMETHEUS_ENABLED=true|false (default: true)
+- NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED=true|false (default: false)
+- OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=collector:4317
+- OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE=true|false (default: true for dev)
+- OTEL_SERVICE_NAME=newt (default)
+- OTEL_SERVICE_VERSION=<version>
+- OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES=service.instance.id=<id>,site_id=<id>
+- OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL=15s (default)
+- NEWT_ADMIN_ADDR=127.0.0.1:2112 (default admin HTTP with /metrics)
+- NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_SITE_LABELS=true|false (default: true; disable to drop site_id/region as metric labels and rely on resource attributes only)
+
+Runtime behavior
+
+- When Prometheus exporter is enabled, Newt serves /metrics on NEWT_ADMIN_ADDR (default :2112)
+- When OTLP is enabled, metrics and traces are exported to OTLP gRPC endpoint
+- Go runtime metrics (goroutines, GC, memory) are exported automatically
+
+Metric catalog (current)
+
+Unless otherwise noted, `site_id` and `region` are available via resource attributes and, by default, as metric labels. Set `NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_SITE_LABELS=false` to drop them from counter/histogram label sets in high-cardinality environments.

+
+Conventions
+
+- Durations in seconds (unit: s), names end with _seconds
+- Sizes in bytes (unit: By), names end with _bytes
+- Counters end with _total
+- Labels must be low-cardinality and stable
+
+Histogram buckets
+
+- Latency (seconds): 0.005, 0.01, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 30
+
+Local quickstart
+
+1) Direct Prometheus scrape (do not also scrape the Collector)
+   NEWT_METRICS_PROMETHEUS_ENABLED=true \
+   NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED=false \
+   NEWT_ADMIN_ADDR="127.0.0.1:2112" \
+   ./newt
+
+   curl -s <http://localhost:2112/metrics> | grep ^newt_
+
+2) Using the Collector (compose-style)
+   NEWT_METRICS_PROMETHEUS_ENABLED=true \
+   NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED=true \
+   OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=collector:4317 \
+   OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE=true \
+   OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_TEMPORALITY_PREFERENCE=cumulative \
+   ./newt
+
+   Collector config example: examples/otel-collector.yaml
+   Prometheus scrape config: examples/prometheus.yml
+
+Adding new metrics
+
+- Use helpers in internal/telemetry/metrics.go for counters/histograms
+- Keep labels low-cardinality
+- Add observable gauges through SetObservableCallback
+
+Optional tracing
+
+- When --otlp is enabled, you can wrap outbound HTTP clients with otelhttp.NewTransport to create spans for HTTP requests to Pangolin. This affects traces only and does not add metric labels.
+
+OTLP TLS example
+
+- Enable TLS to Collector with a custom CA and headers:
+
+```sh
+NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED=true \
+OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=collector:4317 \
+OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE=false \
+OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_CERTIFICATE=/etc/otel/custom-ca.pem \
+OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Bearer abc123,tenant=acme" \
+./newt
+```
+
+Prometheus scrape strategy (choose one)
+
+Important: Do not scrape both Newt (2112) and the Collector’s Prometheus exporter (8889) at the same time for the same process. Doing so will double-count cumulative counters.
+
+A) Scrape Newt directly:
+
+```yaml
+global:
+  scrape_interval: 15s
+scrape_configs:
+  - job_name: newt
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: ["newt:2112"]
+```
+
+B) Scrape the Collector’s Prometheus exporter:
+
+```yaml
+global:
+  scrape_interval: 15s
+scrape_configs:
+  - job_name: otel-collector
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: ["otel-collector:8889"]
+```
+
+Reason mapping (source → reason)
+
+- Server instructs reconnect/terminate → server_request
+- Heartbeat/Ping threshold exceeded → timeout
+- Peer closed connection gracefully → peer_close
+- Route/Interface change detected → network_change
+- Auth/token failure (HTTP 401/403) → auth_error
+- TLS/WG handshake error → handshake_error
+- Config reloaded/applied (causing reconnection) → config_change
+- Other/unclassified errors → error
+
+PromQL snippets
+
+- Throughput in (5m):
+
+```sh
+sum(rate(newt_tunnel_bytes_total{direction="ingress"}[5m]))
+```
+
+- P95 latency (seconds):
+
+```sh
+histogram_quantile(0.95, sum(rate(newt_tunnel_latency_seconds_bucket[5m])) by (le))
+```
+
+- Active sessions:
+
+```sh
+sum(newt_tunnel_sessions)
+```
+
+Compatibility notes
+
+- Gauges do not use the _total suffix (e.g., newt_tunnel_sessions).
+- site_id/region remain resource attributes. Metric labels for these fields appear on per-site gauges (e.g., `newt_site_online`) and, by default, on counters/histograms; disable them with `NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_SITE_LABELS=false` if needed. `tunnel_id` is a metric label (WireGuard public key). Never expose secrets in labels.
+- NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_TUNNEL_ID (default: true) toggles whether tunnel_id is included as a label on bytes/sessions/proxy/reconnect metrics. Disable in high-cardinality environments.
+- Avoid double-scraping: scrape either Newt (/metrics) or the Collector's Prometheus exporter, not both.
+- Prometheus does not accept remote_write; use Mimir/Cortex/VM/Thanos-Receive for remote_write.
+- No free text in labels; use only the enumerated constants for reason, protocol (tcp|udp), and transport (e.g., websocket|wireguard).
+
+Further reading
+
+- See docs/METRICS_RECOMMENDATIONS.md for roadmap, label guidance (transport vs protocol), and example alerts.
+
+Cardinality tips
+
+- tunnel_id can grow in larger fleets. Use relabeling to drop or retain a subset, for example:
+
+```yaml
+# Drop all tunnel_id on bytes to reduce series
+- source_labels: [__name__]
+  regex: newt_tunnel_bytes_total
+  action: keep
+- action: labeldrop
+  regex: tunnel_id
+
+# Or drop only high-churn tunnels
+- source_labels: [tunnel_id]
+  regex: .*
+  action: drop
+```
+
+Quickstart: direkte Prometheus-Erfassung (empfohlen)
+
+```sh
+# Start (direkter /metrics-Scrape, keine Doppel-Erfassung)
+docker compose -f docker-compose.metrics.yml up -d
+
+# Smoke-Checks
+./scripts/smoke-metrics.sh
+# Tunnel-IDs ausblenden (optional):
+# EXPECT_TUNNEL_ID=false NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_TUNNEL_ID=false ./scripts/smoke-metrics.sh
+```
+
+- Prometheus UI: <http://localhost:9090>
+- Standard-Scrape-Intervall: 15s
+- Kein OTLP aktiv (NEWT_METRICS_OTLP_ENABLED=false in docker-compose.metrics.yml)
+
+Häufige PromQL-Schnelltests
+
+```yaml
+# Online-Status einer Site in den letzten 5 Minuten
+max_over_time(newt_site_online{site_id="$site"}[5m])
+
+# TCP egress-Bytes pro Site/Tunnel (10m)
+sum by (site_id, tunnel_id) (increase(newt_tunnel_bytes_total{protocol="tcp",direction="egress"}[10m]))
+
+# WebSocket-Connect P95
+histogram_quantile(0.95, sum by (le, site_id) (rate(newt_websocket_connect_latency_seconds_bucket[5m])))
+
+# Reconnects nach Initiator
+increase(newt_tunnel_reconnects_total{site_id="$site"}[30m]) by (initiator, reason)
+```
+
+Troubleshooting
+
+- curl :2112/metrics – ensure endpoint is reachable and includes newt_* metrics
+- Check Collector logs for OTLP connection issues
+- Verify Prometheus Targets are UP and scraping Newt or Collector

+# Newt OpenTelemetry Review
+
+## Overview
+
+This document summarises the current OpenTelemetry (OTel) instrumentation in Newt, assesses
+compliance with OTel guidelines, and lists concrete improvements to pursue before release.
+It is based on the implementation in `internal/telemetry` and the call-sites that emit
+metrics and traces across the code base.
+
+## Current metric instrumentation
+
+All instruments are registered in `internal/telemetry/metrics.go`. They are grouped
+into site, tunnel, connection, configuration, build, WebSocket, and proxy domains.
+A global attribute filter (see `buildMeterProvider`) constrains exposed label keys to
+`site_id`, `region`, and a curated list of low-cardinality dimensions so that Prometheus
+exports stay bounded.
+
+- **Site lifecycle**: `newt_site_registrations_total`, `newt_site_online`, and
+  `newt_site_last_heartbeat_timestamp_seconds` capture registration attempts and liveness. They
+  are fed either manually (`IncSiteRegistration`) or via the `TelemetryView` state
+  callback that publishes observable gauges for the active site.
+- **Tunnel health and usage**: Counters and histograms track bytes, latency, reconnects,
+  and active sessions per tunnel (`newt_tunnel_*` family). Attribute helpers respect
+  the `NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_TUNNEL_ID` toggle to keep cardinality manageable on larger
+  fleets.
+- **Connection attempts**: `newt_connection_attempts_total` and
+  `newt_connection_errors_total` are emitted throughout the WebSocket client to classify
+  authentication, dial, and transport failures.
+- **Operations/configuration**: `newt_config_reloads_total`,
+  `process_start_time_seconds`, `newt_config_apply_seconds`, and
+  `newt_cert_rotation_total` provide visibility into blueprint reloads, process boots,
+  configuration timings, and certificate rotation outcomes.
+- **Build metadata**: `newt_build_info` records the binary version/commit together
+  with optional site metadata when build information is supplied at startup.
+- **WebSocket control-plane**: `newt_websocket_connect_latency_seconds`,
+  `newt_websocket_messages_total`, `newt_websocket_connected`, and
+  `newt_websocket_reconnects_total` report connect latency, ping/pong/text activity,
+  connection state, and reconnect reasons.
+- **Proxy data-plane**: Observable gauges (`newt_proxy_active_connections`,
+  `newt_proxy_buffer_bytes`, `newt_proxy_async_backlog_bytes`) plus counters for
+  drops, accepts, connection lifecycle events (`newt_proxy_connections_total`), and
+  duration histograms (`newt_proxy_connection_duration_seconds`) surface backlog,
+  drop behaviour, and churn alongside per-protocol byte counters.
+
+Refer to `docs/observability.md` for a tabular catalogue with instrument types,
+attributes, and sample exposition lines.
+
+## Tracing coverage
+
+Tracing is optional and enabled only when OTLP export is configured. When active:
+
+- The admin HTTP mux is wrapped with `otelhttp.NewHandler`, producing spans for
+  `/metrics` and `/healthz` requests.
+- The WebSocket dial path creates a `ws.connect` span around the gRPC-based handshake.
+
+No other subsystems currently create spans, so data-plane operations, blueprint fetches,
+Docker discovery, and WireGuard reconfiguration happen without trace context.
+
+## Guideline & best-practice alignment
+
+The implementation adheres to most OTel Go recommendations:
+
+- **Naming & units** – Every instrument follows the `newt_*` prefix with `_total`
+  suffixes for counters and `_seconds`/`_bytes` unit conventions. Histograms are
+  registered with explicit second-based buckets.
+- **Resource attributes** – Service name/version and optional `site_id`/`region`
+  populate the `resource.Resource`. Metric labels mirror these by default (and on
+  per-site gauges) but can be disabled with `NEWT_METRICS_INCLUDE_SITE_LABELS=false`
+  to avoid unnecessary cardinality growth.
+- **Attribute hygiene** – A single attribute filter (`sdkmetric.WithView`) enforces
+  the allow-list of label keys to prevent accidental high-cardinality emission.
+- **Runtime metrics** – Go runtime instrumentation is enabled automatically through
+  `runtime.Start`.
+- **Configuration via environment** – `telemetry.FromEnv` honours `OTEL_*` variables
+  alongside `NEWT_*` overrides so operators can configure exporters without code
+  changes.
+- **Shutdown handling** – `Setup.Shutdown` iterates exporters in reverse order to
+  flush buffers before process exit.
+
+## Adjustments & improvements
+
+The review identified a few actionable adjustments:
+
+1. **Record registration failures** – `newt_site_registrations_total` is currently
+   incremented only on success. Emit `result="failure"` samples whenever Pangolin
+   rejects a registration or credential exchange so operators can alert on churn.
+2. **Surface config reload failures** – `telemetry.IncConfigReload` is invoked with
+   `result="success"` only. Callers should record a failure result when blueprint
+   parsing or application aborts before success counters are incremented.
+3. **Expose robust uptime** – Document using `time() - process_start_time_seconds`
+   to derive uptime now that the restart counter has been replaced with a timestamp
+   gauge.
+4. **Propagate contexts where available** – Many emitters call metric helpers with
+   `context.Background()`. Passing real contexts (when inexpensive) would allow future
+   exporters to correlate spans and metrics.
+5. **Extend tracing coverage** – Instrument critical flows such as blueprint fetches,
+   WireGuard reconfiguration, proxy accept loops, and Docker discovery to provide end
+   to end visibility when OTLP tracing is enabled.
+
+## Metrics to add before release
+
+Prioritised additions that would close visibility gaps:
+
+1. **Config reload error taxonomy** – Split reload attempts into a dedicated
+   `newt_config_reload_errors_total{phase}` counter to make blueprint validation failures
+   visible alongside the existing success counter.
+2. **Config source visibility** – Export `newt_config_source_info{source,version}` so
+   operators can audit the active blueprint origin/commit during incidents.
+3. **Certificate expiry** – Emit `newt_cert_expiry_timestamp_seconds` (per cert) to
+   enable proactive alerts before mTLS credentials lapse.
+4. **Blueprint/config pull latency** – Measuring Pangolin blueprint fetch durations and
+   HTTP status distribution would expose slow control-plane operations.
+5. **Tunnel setup latency** – Histograms for DNS resolution and tunnel handshakes would
+   help correlate connect latency spikes with network dependencies.
+
+These metrics rely on data that is already available in the code paths mentioned
+above and would round out operational dashboards.
+
+## Tracing wishlist
+
+To benefit from tracing when OTLP is active, add spans around:
+
+- Pangolin REST calls (wrap the HTTP client with `otelhttp.NewTransport`).
+- Docker discovery cycles and target registration callbacks.
+- WireGuard reconfiguration (interface bring-up, peer updates).
+- Proxy dial/accept loops for both TCP and UDP targets.
+
+Capturing these stages will let operators correlate latency spikes with reconnects
+and proxy drops using distributed traces in addition to the metric signals.
