Added:
- Server statistics: named's memory and CPU (from /proc), cache size,
sockets and client counts against their limits (statistics channel,
rndc status), host memory and load, and free disk space. Memory and
CPU are kept over time as gauges (sum and sample count, averaged in
timelines). Statistics page Server section, jarl stats server,
GET /stats/server.
- jarl record add|set|delete|disable|enable --view a,b | all: the same
change in each view, applied as one changeset.
- Blocking can be paused until resumed (jarl block pause indefinitely,
"Until I resume", {"indefinitely": true}).
Changed:
- List options (allow-transfer, forwarders, ...) get their braces added
when given without them.
- The dashboard lists named-checkconf's warnings about the running
configuration; the CLI prints them after an apply.
- Stats page: tile and card rows fill their width, and the queries and
failed answers charts share margins so their time axes line up.
- Dashboard: options have their own tile.
- 24-hour times in the web UI.

The zone's Name servers tab no longer waits for the other servers before
showing: it lists each query as a dig command line with a waiting
counter, fills in the answers as they arrive, then shows the result with
the queries under "Queries sent". Results (serials and delegation) are
kept for 10 minutes so revisiting the tab is instant; "Check again" asks
anew, and a check keeps running when the tab is left.
GET /zones/{zone}/serials?stream=1 streams the queries as
newline-delimited JSON (nscheck.Checker.Watch); without it the endpoint
is unchanged.

Zones get a DNSSEC setting: named signs them with BIND's default (or a
custom) dnssec-policy and inline signing, with keys in a per-view key
directory. Jarl shows the keys, the DS record and when it is safe to
publish it, checks the parent's DS records (check-ds, which also tells
named), and refuses steps that would break a signed domain: switching
straight to unsigned, finishing a turn-off too early, deleting or moving
a signed zone, TTLs above max-zone-ttl. Turning off goes through the
insecure policy; wipe starts over once the parent has no DS.
Backups store the DNSSEC keys and restore puts them back for named; the
backup unit gets CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH to read them. Jarl raises a zone's
serial above named's whenever it writes an older one (after a restore).
The serials check compares the signed serial.
With a Porkbun API key in jarl.yaml, the registrar's name servers, glue
records and DS records can be shown and changed, each change checked
first (dry run, force to override).

- jarl zone list showed only primary zones. zone create binds its --type
flag (default "primary") to the same variable as list's --type, so the
default leaked into the list filter and hid hint, secondary and forward
zones. list now has its own variable. TestListQueries runs list
commands against a fake server and checks the filters they send.
- named-checkconf/named-checkzone messages are classified by the tool's
exit code: on success, everything printed is a warning. Warnings such
as 'both "recursion no;" and "allow-recursion" active' were shown as
errors. The CLI, jarld check and the web UI now label them as warnings
and skip the routine "loaded serial" lines.
- The zone_outside_view error points at --adopt-zones.
- docs/views.md: step-by-step split DNS for a server that has no views
yet, tested on a copy of a stock Ubuntu 26.04 setup. Linked from the
README, concepts and validation docs.

Jarl keeps a BIND 9.20 server's whole configuration (views, ACLs, TSIG
keys, zones of every type, records, named.conf options) in SQLite and
renders named.conf, keys.conf and zone files from it.
Every change goes through one changeset pipeline: whole-configuration
validation, named-checkconf -z and named-checkzone in a staging
directory, atomic install, rndc reconfig/reload, serial verification
with rndc zonestatus, and rollback if named does not load the change.
Changes apply one at a time by default or are bundled and applied
together. Applied changesets can be reverted.
- jarld: the daemon with the REST API and an embedded web UI, plus import,
adopt, check, resync, backup and local user recovery commands
- jarl: the CLI, including ACME DNS-01 hooks for certbot and acme.sh
- users with argon2id passwords and CSRF-protected sessions; hashed API
tokens with granular grants and roles; an audit log
- systemd unit, sysusers.d/tmpfiles.d files, Makefile
- unit tests, integration tests against a real named, scripts/e2e.sh
- docs/ guides, README and CHANGELOG
