pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 ca77a4507d NPM already answers which DNS providers it can drive
GET /nginx/certificates/dns-providers, authenticated, 86 entries on the 2.15.1
image here. verified against the live instance and against the file it reads
from, /app/certbot/dns-plugins.json in the container.

which settles how the provider picker gets built. the list is per install —
whatever certbot plugins that image carries — so curating one centrally and
shipping it as the truth would offer somebody a provider their NPM has never
heard of, take their API key, and fail at issue time with an error that does
not explain itself. ask the instance.

and NPM hands back each provider's credential TEMPLATE, carrying its own field
names. so the form is generated rather than written per provider, and it stays
right for providers we have never heard of. a curated list of ours is left with
the human half only: which we recommend, and how you actually get a key.

also noted: this endpoint answers 403 unauthenticated, not 404. the 404-means-
auth quirk is per route, not a property of the API. the client's heuristic
stays correct; the documentation of it was too broad.
