Phase 2 and 4 of docs/roadmap/storage-locations.md. Apps can now be
placed on a location and moved between them.
CFG_<APP>_STORAGE lands in all 37 app templates, holding a location NAME
rather than a path: names survive a migrate to a host with different
disks, paths do not. The 11 infrastructure apps that other apps reach by
literal path (traefik, prometheus, grafana, adguard, gluetun, crowdsec,
headscale, dashy, pihole, unbound, wireguard) are pinned. libreportal
itself never gets the key — it is pinned structurally by webuiDir.
Pinning needed no second config key. "Pinned" is not a fact about a value,
it is a statement about whether the field may be edited, so it goes in the
comment beside **ADVANCED** and **DEV** as **READONLY**, and the field
factory renders those disabled. That marker earns its keep beyond this
feature: derived fields already warned in prose that editing them does
nothing (crowdsec.config:72) next to a perfectly editable input.
storage_app_config.sh keeps the comment honest — it carries the resolved
path for hand-recovery and regenerates the dropdown from the registry, but
only writes when something actually changed, since the app .config is
user-editable and lives in the container-owned tree.
app move stops the app (a live copy of a running Postgres is a corrupt
copy), snapshots it, copies, verifies, and only then removes the source.
The copy runs in libreportal-ownership because it must: app data holds
rootless sub-UID files the manager can neither read nor recreate.
Verified against two real ext4 filesystems that a cross-device move
preserves uid 231141 and the payload, and that the source survives every
refusal path — unregistered destination, the WebUI app, a traversal in the
app name, and an occupied destination.
Task titles registered in both tables, with a specific rule so a move
renders as "Nextcloud - Move to bigdisk" rather than the generic fallback
dropping the destination. lp-task-names could not be run to confirm — it
borrows the WebUI container's node and no containers are running.

The previous commit enabled everything that passed the two mechanical
checks. Passing them is necessary, not sufficient: several of those apps
are singletons by role, and an instance of them would validate, clone,
start, and then not make sense.
Eight are now off by design, each saying why:
adguard a resolver is what clients point at
authelia the forward-auth provider every Traefik router points at
gluetun a network provider — apps join it by container name
headscale the control server a tailnet is defined by
libreportal_catalog LibrePortal's own catalog, internal plumbing
ollama one endpoint, and gigabytes of models per copy
trivy the updater resolves the scanner by a FIXED container
name, trivy-service, so a second copy would run and
never be the one CVE scanning uses
wireguard one stable published UDP endpoint; peers are tied to it
And one that should never have been touched: crowdsec ships no
docker-compose.yml, so the audit — which required a compose to read
service names from — skipped it, while the enabling pass only required a
config and did not. It got an unaudited true. There is nothing for
`instance create` to clone, and one decision engine watching the whole
box is the point of it. Now false, with that stated.
23 apps instanceable, 15 not: 6 that cannot be, 9 that should not be.

Three apps were instanceable and the rest were silent, so the feature
looked far narrower than it is. Every app has now been checked against
the two rules instance_create.sh enforces, and the answer recorded in
its config rather than left unset.
32 apps are instance-safe and now say so. Six are not, and each says why
in its own words instead of being indistinguishable from an app nobody
had reviewed:
pihole a DNS server must own port 53
unbound a resolver must own its fixed 5335
stalwart a mail server must own 25/465/587/993
traefik must own 443, and one Traefik routes every other app
prometheus node-exporter and cadvisor carry no "prometheus" prefix
stoat pins 7881, and database/redis/rabbit/minio carry no prefix
The first four are genuinely one-per-host: the port is not arbitrary, it
is the protocol. The last two are compose-identity problems and could be
fixed by prefixing those service names, which is a change to make
deliberately rather than in passing.
Recorded as an explicit false with a reason, not left unset, so the next
person reads a decision instead of an absence. The audit was verified not
to pass anything vacuously: every app resolves at least one service name,
so no app reached "eligible" merely because nothing was found to check.

Adds the decision half of the app updater. Detection (P2) and the
snapshot-first apply/revert (P3) were already real, but nothing ever
pressed the button — every update waited for a click.
CFG_<APP>_UPDATE_TYPE=auto|manual per app, default auto (33 templates)
CFG_UPDATER_AUTO=true|false master switch, default true
updaterAppPolicy resolves the two the way backupResolveStrategy already
resolves backup strategy: the global switch can only make things more
manual. updaterApplyAuto runs at the end of `updater check` and enqueues
the ordinary updater_apply task for each auto app that has an update —
never applies inline, so an automatic update is the same code path, task
log, History entry and Roll back button as a manual one.
Safety: each attempt stamps its target digest under generated/auto/, so a
build that fails is rolled back and then left alone rather than retried on
every scan; in-flight updater tasks are skipped so scans can't stack.
Tracked end to end: updates.json carries each app's resolved update_type,
History entries carry trigger=manual|auto. The WebUI says whether updates
install themselves, chips only the apps that opted out, labels automatic
history, and — since an auto app's pending update needs no decision — keeps
it off the Overview board's "Needs action" view.
Also fixes artifactApplyAuto enqueueing without --detach: it runs inside
the single-threaded task processor's own poll, so following the new task in
the foreground waits for a task that cannot start until it returns.

The App Center blurb ran three sentences, two of which restated things
the Security view already makes obvious. Keep the what, drop the rest.

New containers/trivy app (aquasec/trivy in server mode, private API port,
docker socket + cache volume) in the security,recommended categories, plus
placement in the setup wizard recommended step, the server-side install
tier after crowdsec, and the CLI first-install prompt. The updater's CVE
scan (design doc P4) will gate on this app being installed; §5 of the
design doc updated to record the app-based decision.
