Add a local unix socket for root on the server
jarld also listens on /run/jarl/jarl.sock (socket in jarl.yaml). Requests on it from root or jarld's own user need no token and act as an administrator; the kernel's SO_PEERCRED says who is connecting, and anyone else must send a token. The jarl CLI uses the socket when no server is configured, or with -s local, so 'sudo jarl status' works on the server with nothing set up and a lost token or password never locks root out. Changes are audited under the system user's name via "socket". The systemd unit creates /run/jarl (0750). Socket paths over 107 bytes are refused with a clear message. The docs explain the socket and what happens when a token is revoked. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
