-<?php
-// ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-// PURPOSE
-//   Remote node metrics endpoint. The monitor page's partner cards — CPU, memory, storage,
-//   uptime and container counts for every host other than this one.
-//
-// OPERATIONAL MODEL
-//   Split from monitor.php on cost, not on subject. Local metrics are cheap file reads;
-//   remote metrics are SSH round trips to every partner. Keeping them on separate URLs lets
-//   the page poll local stats often and remote stats rarely, and lets a dark partner slow
-//   only its own request. Served from a 1-hour cache by default; ?live bypasses it for the
-//   page's explicit refresh button.
-//
-// DESIGN PRINCIPLES
-//   The cache is the default and the live call is the exception.
-//       An hour is deliberately long. Partner hardware stats do not move fast enough to
-//       justify paying SSH latency on every page load, and the refresh button exists for the
-//       moment someone actually needs current numbers.
-//
-//   Every payload carries its own timestamp.
-//       ts is written into the cached document, so the page can render the age rather than
-//       presenting hour-old numbers as current.
-//
-//   The live path writes the cache too.
-//       A manual refresh benefits every subsequent visitor instead of being discarded.
-//
-// OPERATIONAL SAFEGUARDS
-//   Cache miss is distinguished from empty payload.
-//       vv_cache_read() returns null on a miss, expiry, or unparseable file, and the check is
-//       an explicit !== null. A legitimately empty result — the single-host case, where there
-//       are no remote hosts at all — is served from cache rather than being mistaken for a
-//       miss and forced onto the SSH path on every single poll.
-//
-//   Read-only over SSH. The remote commands are stat collection only; nothing is started,
-//   stopped, or written on a partner.
-//
-//   Unreachable partners degrade per node inside vv_remote_hosts_stats(), so one dark host
-//   cannot empty the other cards.
-//
-//   HTTP caching is disabled even though the payload is cached server-side.
-//       The two are not the same lever. The server-side cache has an age the page can see and
-//       a bypass it can trigger; a browser or proxy cache has neither, and would defeat ?live
-//       entirely.
-//
-// REQUEST
-//   GET             served from the 3600s cache when one is present
-//   GET ?live       bypass the cache, collect fresh, and rewrite it
-//
-// RESPONSE
-//   {"remote_hosts":{…},"ts":epoch}
-//
-// DEPENDS ON
-//   include/monitor.php   vv_remote_hosts_stats(), vv_cache_read(), vv_cache_write()
