I don't want to spoil too much, but that was not so easy! Needs all the rules and a bit of chess understanding to solve the puzzle. Solution requires only the first of white's two mating moves.
Thanks for that puzzle - it took me several attempts, didn't pay enough attention as it seems

The mate in two moves with the Zugzwang key move is very aesthetic.
