+All scrape targets have these labels:
 
-```
-<hostname>.home.2rjus.net:<port>
-```
+**Standard labels:**
+- `instance` - Full target address (`<hostname>.home.2rjus.net:<port>`)

+### Filtering by Host
+
+Use the `hostname` label for easy host filtering across all jobs:
 
 ```promql
-up{instance=~"monitoring01.*"}
-node_load1{instance=~"ns1.*"}

+up{hostname="ha1"}                  # Check if ha1 is up
 ```
 
+This is simpler than wildcarding the `instance` label:
+
+```promql
+# Old way (still works but verbose)
+up{instance=~"monitoring01.*"}
+
+# New way (preferred)
+up{hostname="monitoring01"}
+```
+
+### Filtering by Role/Tier
+
+Filter hosts by their role or tier:

+```promql

+# Certificate Monitoring Plan
+
+## Summary
+
+This document describes the removal of labmon certificate monitoring and outlines future needs for certificate monitoring in the homelab.
+
+## What Was Removed
+
+### labmon Service
+
+The `labmon` service was a custom Go application that provided:
+
+1. **StepMonitor**: Monitoring for step-ca (Smallstep CA) certificate provisioning and health
+2. **TLSConnectionMonitor**: Periodic TLS connection checks to verify certificate validity and expiration
+
+The service exposed Prometheus metrics at `:9969` including:
+- `labmon_tlsconmon_certificate_seconds_left` - Time until certificate expiration
+- `labmon_tlsconmon_certificate_check_error` - Whether the TLS check failed
+- `labmon_stepmon_certificate_seconds_left` - Step-CA internal certificate expiration
+
+### Affected Files
+
+- `hosts/monitoring01/configuration.nix` - Removed labmon configuration block
+- `services/monitoring/prometheus.nix` - Removed labmon scrape target
+- `services/monitoring/rules.yml` - Removed `certificate_rules` alert group
+- `services/monitoring/alloy.nix` - Deleted (was only used for labmon profiling)
+- `services/monitoring/default.nix` - Removed alloy.nix import
+
+### Removed Alerts
+
+- `certificate_expiring_soon` - Warned when any monitored TLS cert had < 24h validity
+- `step_ca_serving_cert_expiring` - Critical alert for step-ca's own serving certificate
+- `certificate_check_error` - Warned when TLS connection check failed
+- `step_ca_certificate_expiring` - Critical alert for step-ca issued certificates
+
+## Why It Was Removed
+
+1. **step-ca decommissioned**: The primary monitoring target (step-ca) is no longer in use
+2. **Outdated codebase**: labmon was a custom tool that required maintenance
+3. **Limited value**: With ACME auto-renewal, certificates should renew automatically
+
+## Current State
+
+ACME certificates are now issued by OpenBao PKI at `vault.home.2rjus.net:8200`. The ACME protocol handles automatic renewal, and certificates are typically renewed well before expiration.
+
+## Future Needs
+
+While ACME handles renewal automatically, we should consider monitoring for:
+
+1. **ACME renewal failures**: Alert when a certificate fails to renew
+   - Could monitor ACME client logs (via Loki queries)
+   - Could check certificate file modification times
+
+2. **Certificate expiration as backup**: Even with auto-renewal, a last-resort alert for certificates approaching expiration would catch renewal failures
+
+3. **Certificate transparency**: Monitor for unexpected certificate issuance
+
+### Potential Solutions
+
+1. **Prometheus blackbox_exporter**: Can probe TLS endpoints and export certificate expiration metrics
+   - `probe_ssl_earliest_cert_expiry` metric
+   - Already a standard tool, well-maintained
+
+2. **Custom Loki alerting**: Query ACME service logs for renewal failures
+   - Works with existing infrastructure
+   - No additional services needed
+
+3. **Node-exporter textfile collector**: Script that checks local certificate files and writes expiration metrics
+
+## Status
+
+**Not yet implemented.** This document serves as a placeholder for future work on certificate monitoring.

 ### 4. Set metadata on hosts
 
+✅ **Complete.** All relevant hosts have metadata configured. Note: The implementation filters by `role` rather than `priority`, which matches the existing nix-cache01 configuration.
+
 Example in `hosts/nix-cache01/configuration.nix`:
 
 ```nix
 homelab.host = {
-  tier = "test";       # can be deployed by MCP (used by homelab-deploy)
   priority = "low";    # relaxed alerting thresholds
   role = "build-host";
 };
 ```
 
+**Note:** Current implementation only sets `role = "build-host"`. Consider adding `priority = "low"` when label propagation is implemented.
+
 Example in `hosts/ns1/configuration.nix`:
 
 ```nix
 homelab.host = {
-  tier = "prod";
-  priority = "high";
   role = "dns";
   labels.dns_role = "primary";
 };
 ```
 
+**Note:** `tier` and `priority` use defaults ("prod" and "high"), which is the intended behavior. The current ns1/ns2 configurations match this pattern.
+
 ### 5. Update alert rules
 
-After implementing labels, review and update `services/monitoring/rules.yml`:
+✅ **Complete.** Updated `services/monitoring/rules.yml`:
 
-- Replace instance-name exclusions with label-based filters (e.g. `{priority!="low"}` instead of `{instance!="nix-cache01.home.2rjus.net:9100"}`).
-- Consider whether any other rules should differentiate by priority or role.
+- `high_cpu_load`: Replaced `instance!="nix-cache01..."` with `role!="build-host"` for standard hosts (15m duration) and `role="build-host"` for build hosts (2h duration).
+- `unbound_low_cache_hit_ratio`: Added `dns_role="primary"` filter to only alert on the primary DNS resolver (secondary has a cold cache).
 
-Specifically, the `high_cpu_load` rule currently has a nix-cache01 exclusion that should be replaced with a `priority`-based filter.
+### 6. Labels for `generateScrapeConfigs` (service targets)
 
-### 6. Consider labels for `generateScrapeConfigs` (service targets)
-
-The same label propagation could be applied to service-level scrape targets. This is optional and can be deferred -- service targets are more specialized and less likely to need generic label-based filtering.
+✅ **Complete.** Host labels are now propagated to all auto-generated service scrape targets (unbound, homelab-deploy, nixos-exporter, etc.). This enables semantic filtering on any service metric, such as using `dns_role="primary"` with the unbound job.
