control-api is hosted outside the cloud and validators reach it directly,
so it sees the floating IP as the connection's source address. New open
route GET /api/v1/agents/{id}/observed-ip returns that address (taken only
from the TCP peer; forwarding headers are ignored so a validator cannot
forge it).
The agent gets self_check.methods, a priority-ordered list of ip_echo
(unchanged) and control_api; the default stays [ip_echo]. The self-check
passes when any method confirms the address; the next method is tried on
no answer and on a mismatch. Each method has its own timeout so a hung
first method cannot starve the fallback, and control_api uses a new TCP
connection per call (a connection opened before the floating IP was
attached would keep reporting the old address).

control-api: every route now carries a mandatory access level (admin / agent /
open) in a route table. All /api/v1/admin/* require the admin token; the
write calls of validator-agent and prober (self-check, events, results,
complete) require a separate static agent token; register, heartbeat and
fetching the assignment stay open. Tokens come from env vars, are compared in
constant time and never logged. An empty token leaves that level open with a
startup warning (backward compatible).
validator-agent / prober: apiclient sends the agent token only to control-api.
admin-dashboard: login/password (from env) with a stateless HMAC session
cookie, Origin-based CSRF check, per-IP brute-force throttle, HX-Redirect for
htmx polls, logout in the sidebar; the dashboard calls control-api with the
admin token. Login page layout fixed after review.
Also: env plumbing in docker-compose/rxprod-compose/systemd/config examples,
e2e script with token assertions, tests, docs (API, SETUP, USAGE, DASHBOARD,
README), plan and review under docs/changes/, bin/ rebuilt with new
SHA256SUMS.

Both binaries registered with control-api exactly once at startup and
exited (os.Exit(1)) on any failure — including control-api simply not
being up yet (no ordering guarantee between the two at boot/redeploy) or
the admin not having added this validator_id/site_id to the config yet.
Run() now retries registration with capped exponential backoff (3s->30s)
until it succeeds or the process is asked to shut down, instead of
crashing; registerWithRetry is identical in agentcore and probercore
since their Run/register shape already was.
Separately, the admin dashboard's Validators page had no hostname column
even though the agent already reports one on register (mirroring the
prober) and control-api already persists it — only the admin-config read
DTO (validatorDTO in httpapi and dashboard) dropped it before it reached
the template. Added hostname + last_heartbeat_at to that DTO end-to-end
and a Хост/Heartbeat column to validators.html, matching sites.html.
Rebuilt bin/{control-api,admin-dashboard,prober,validator-agent} and
bin/SHA256SUMS per docs/SETUP.md's documented build recipe.
