Goal: catch bad configuration before a real backup starts.

  • Add preflight checks for SSH reachability, remote rsync availability, source root existence, and key selection.
  • Add per-host effective config preview for source root, SSH, rsync args, includes, excludes, and retention.
  • Warn for dangerous or confusing combinations, such as backing up / without root-level excludes.
  • Make dry-run summaries easier to read: files seen, transfer estimate, warnings, and log link.
  • Keep real backup actions gated by clear state: ready, warning, or blocked.
