Joseph Doherty 153609ef8a feat(central): one central cache-invalidation topic; role-mapping and external-definition caches follow peer edits (ScadaBridge#100 item 3, ScadaBridge#83)
The #96 site-psk-invalidation topic was the first cross-node invalidation broadcast.
It is generalised into ONE central DistributedPubSub topic, central-cache-invalidation,
carrying typed messages (Commons ICentralCacheInvalidation: SitePskInvalidated,
RoleMappingsInvalidated, ExternalDefinitionsInvalidated, InboundApiMethodInvalidated)
in an envelope stamped with the publisher's process-unique origin id.

- Host: CentralCacheInvalidationBus (ICentralCacheInvalidationPublisher, no-op until
  the mediator is set, never throws) and CentralCacheInvalidationSubscriber, which
  skips its own node's envelopes and hands the peer's to every registered
  ICentralCacheInvalidationHandler (a failing handler does not stop the rest).
  Replaces SitePskInvalidationSubscriber.
- Migration of #96: SitePskRotationInvalidator publishes through the bus and is the
  PSK handler; SitePskInvalidated keeps its type name and is also published bare on
  site-psk-invalidation, which the subscriber still listens to, so a mixed-version
  central pair keeps exchanging PSK invalidations. Remove after one release.
- Audit D1: RoleMappingCache is a handler; ManagementActor's post-commit role-mapping
  invalidation also publishes RoleMappingsInvalidated, so a revocation is immediate on
  the peer instead of after RoleMappingCacheSeconds.
- Audit D3 / #83 (peer half): ExternalDefinitionLookupCache is a handler; the 9
  ManagementActor handlers and the Transport bundle importer publish
  ExternalDefinitionsInvalidated after commit. (#83's local import half was already in.)

TTLs remain the fallback for a lost broadcast or a direct SQL edit. Tests: bus and
subscriber unit tests (origin filter, legacy topic), peer-node tests through the real
caches in ManagementService.Tests, importer publish, composition root, and a real
two-node cluster from the production HOCON (CentralCacheInvalidationTwoNodeTests)
proving every message type crosses with the production serializer. Docs: Host,
Communication, Security, ManagementService, ESG, and the #85 cache audit.

Component Reference Documentation

Developer-reference docs for each ScadaBridge component, describing how the shipped code in src/ actually works — with real code examples. These complement the design specs in docs/requirements/: the specs say what a component should do and why; these docs say how the code does it.

Reference docs exist for all 27 components (plus the shared TreeView, listed below).

# Component Description
1 Template Engine Template modeling, inheritance, composition, flattening, diffs, and semantic validation as implemented by the engine's services.
2 Deployment Manager The central deployment pipeline: deployment identity and idempotency, per-instance operation locks, state transitions, all-or-nothing site apply, and artifact deployment.
3 Site Runtime The site actor hierarchy (Deployment Manager singleton, Instance, Script, and Alarm actors), script compilation and execution, the site-wide stream, native alarms, and supervision.
4 Data Connection Layer Protocol adapters (OPC UA, MxGateway), the Become/Stash connection state machine, reconnect and re-subscribe, and the native-alarm subscription seam.
5 Central–Site Communication ClusterClient command and control plus gRPC server-streaming, the central and site communication actors, receptionist registration, and per-site contact points.
6 Store-and-Forward Engine Site-only buffering, fixed-interval retry, parking, SQLite persistence, standby replication, and the operation-tracking store.
7 External System Gateway Script-facing HTTP/REST and database access, the Call and CachedCall modes, and transient versus permanent error classification.
8 Notification Service Central notification-list and SMTP definitions, the per-type delivery adapters, and OAuth2 or Basic SMTP delivery.
9 Central UI The Blazor Server app structure, authentication, real-time updates (SignalR and gRPC), and the management pages.
10 Security & Auth LDAP bind authentication, cookie and JWT sessions, role-based and site-scoped authorization, and shared Data Protection keys.
11 Health Monitoring Site metric collection and central aggregation, report and heartbeat intervals, offline detection, and dead-letter monitoring.
12 Site Event Logging The site-local SQLite event log, retention and storage cap, daily purge, and paginated central query access.
13 Cluster Infrastructure The ClusterOptions model and validation for active/standby clustering, split-brain resolution, and failover.
14 Inbound API POST /api/{method} script invocation, API-key authentication, the extended type system, and inbound-request auditing.
15 Host The deployable binary: role-based component registration, Akka bootstrap, ASP.NET Core hosting, and the readiness and active-node health endpoints.
16 Commons Shared POCO entities, repository and service interfaces, message contracts, and the Types/Interfaces/Entities/Messages namespace layout.
17 Configuration Database The EF Core DbContext, repository implementations, the audit service, secret encryption, and migration and partition maintenance.
18 Management Service The ManagementActor admin command surface, its HTTP endpoints, and ClusterClientReceptionist registration.
19 CLI The System.CommandLine tool over the HTTP Management API — its command groups, config file, and output formats.
20 Traefik Proxy The reverse proxy fronting the central cluster, active-node routing via /health/active, and the Docker topology configuration.
21 Notification Outbox The central NotificationOutboxActor, the Notifications table, the dispatcher loop, retry and parking, and KPIs.
22 Site Call Audit The central SiteCallAuditActor, the SiteCalls mirror table, telemetry ingest, and the parked-call Retry/Discard relay.
23 Audit Log The append-only audit store: site SQLite hot-path, gRPC telemetry, central ingest and reconciliation, redaction, retention, and KPIs.
24 Transport Encrypted bundle export and import, dependency resolution, conflict detection, and BundleImportId-correlated audit.
25 Script Analysis The script trust model and validator, the diagnostics-only compile gate, the blocking-wait advisory, and the static flow-shape predictor.
26 KPI History The central KpiHistoryRecorderActor singleton: KPI sampling, hourly rollups and backfill, and retention purge.
27 Delmia Notifier The WWNotifier console client DELMIA shells out to, its YES/NO contract, and pre-execution-only failover.
28 Tree View The reusable Blazor tree component — parameters, selection modes, and usage in the Central UI.
