End-to-end direct-ssh-direct: two LibrePortal instances exchange pairing
tokens, each authorizes the other to call a locked-down peer-shell dispatcher
via SSH forced-command, then either side can pull live app data from the
other without needing a shared backup repo.
Push and Connect-via-relay are deferred — push is symmetric to pull (same
forced-command, opposite verb), and the relay variant waits for Connect to
actually exist (config_json + kind enum already future-proofed in Phase 2).
Key generation (peer_key.sh):
One ed25519 keypair per install at ~<manager>/.ssh/libreportal-peer{,.pub}.
Generated lazily on the first peer-related call. Used as our outbound
SSH identity AND as the pubkey other instances authorize.
Forced-command dispatcher (peer_shell.sh):
Standalone script, deployed by peerInstallShell() to
~<manager>/.local/bin/peer-shell. authorized_keys entries look like:
command="~/.local/bin/peer-shell <peer-name>",no-pty,no-port-forwarding,
no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding,no-user-rc ssh-ed25519 AAAA… peer:<name>
sshd hands us $SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND; we parse, whitelist the verb, and
refuse anything else. Verbs:
ping Liveness probe (JSON ok:true).
list-apps JSON {peer, apps:[{slug, size_kb}]}.
stream-app tar of containers_dir/<slug> to stdout (slug strictly
validated — lowercase alnum+dash; rejects path traversal).
Audit log appended to ~/.local/state/libreportal/peer-shell.log. Excluded
from the generated source arrays (would crash any sourcing shell on empty
SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND); generate_arrays.sh skip-list extended.
Pairing token (peer_pairing.sh):
Format: lp-peer|v1|<name>|<user>|<host>|<port>|<base64-pubkey>|<fingerprint>
Pipe-delimited because the SHA256 fingerprint and base64 pubkey both
contain ':'. peerPairingParse decodes + re-derives the fingerprint from
the actual key, refusing tokens with mismatched fingerprints (catches
truncation / tampering). peerPairingAccept:
1. Installs peer-shell (peerInstallShell).
2. Appends to authorized_keys with the lockdown options above.
3. Inserts a peers row (kind=direct-ssh-direct, config carries host,
port, user, fingerprint).
Symmetric — user runs accept on BOTH sides with the other's token to
enable bidirectional calls.
Outbound SSH (peer_remote.sh):
peerExec <name> <verb> [args] — looks up the peer's connection config and
ssh's in with the right key, BatchMode + ConnectTimeout + accept-new for
the host key. peerPing wraps it and updates peers.status + last_seen.
Pull-an-app (peer_pull.sh):
peerPullApp <peer> <app> [--no-pre-backup] [--keep-urls]
1. peerPing (refuse if unreachable).
2. migratePreBackupDestination (reuses the Phase 0 safety wrapper —
same restic-tagged pre-migrate snapshot as the backup-channel flow).
3. Stop + wipe destination's app folder.
4. peerExec stream-app | tar -x (pipefail; bails on partial transfers).
5. migrateApplyUrlRewrite + dockerComposeUpdateAndStartApp install
(URL repointing, idempotent install path).
6. dockerComposeUp + post-restore hooks.
Identical Stage-2..6 to migrateApplyApp; only the data source differs
(tar-over-SSH instead of restic-restore).
CLI (cli_peer_commands.sh + header):
libreportal peer token — emit this host's pairing token
libreportal peer pair <token> [name] — accept a token (override name)
libreportal peer apps <peer> — live peer-shell list-apps
libreportal peer pull <peer> <app> [--no-pre-backup] [--keep-urls]
WebUI (/peers):
Header gains 'Show my token' and 'Pair with token' buttons (both open
modals around the matching CLI verbs). Token modal warns the user that
the token is credentials. Pair modal accepts a free-form override name.
Direct-SSH peer cards gain a 'List apps' button that opens an inline
drawer showing the peer's live app inventory (via peer apps) with per-
app 'Pull' buttons. Pull modal has the same two safety toggles as the
Migrate tab (pre-backup ON, URL rewrite ON by default).
Backup-channel manual-add modal kept; direct-SSH must use the token flow.
Smoke-tested:
- All 16 peer-subsystem functions register without crashing the shell.
- peer-shell ping ⇒ {ok:true}; unknown-verb refused; path-traversal slug
refused; valid-slug streams.
- Token emit→parse round-trip preserves every field; garbage rejected
with not-a-token; v99 rejected with unsupported-version.

A peer is a named reference to another LibrePortal instance. Phase 2 only
implements kind=backup-channel (friendly label over a hostname that shows
up in a shared backup repo); direct-ssh-direct and direct-ssh-via-relay
(Connect's blind-relay) are reserved enum values for Phase 3.
DB schema (db_create_tables.sh):
CREATE TABLE peers (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
name TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
kind TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'backup-channel',
config_json TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '{}',
status TEXT DEFAULT 'unknown',
last_seen TEXT,
created_at TEXT DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);
+ indexes on name and kind.
config_json is kind-specific so new transports don't need a schema
migration. For backup-channel it carries {"hostname":"","loc_idx":N}.
Bash module (scripts/peer/):
peer_helpers.sh _peerDb, peerSqlEscape, peerValidateName/Kind.
peer_add.sh peerAdd <name> <kind> [k=v ...] → INSERT, refresh
generator. Rejects unimplemented kinds early so users
don't create dead-end peer records.
peer_remove.sh peerRemove <name> → DELETE.
peer_list.sh peerList → JSON array; peerGet, peerNameForHostname
(reverse-lookup for the migrate-tab overlay).
peer_check.sh peerCheckReachable, peerCheckAll. For backup-channel
'reachable' = at least one snapshot from that hostname
visible in (preferred|any enabled) location. Updates
status + last_seen so UI dots render without re-probing.
CLI (scripts/cli/commands/peer/):
libreportal peer list
libreportal peer get <name>
libreportal peer add <name> backup-channel hostname=<host> [loc_idx=<n>]
libreportal peer remove <name>
libreportal peer check [name]
Auto-routed by cli_initialize.sh's category-discovery.
WebUI data generator (scripts/webui/data/generators/peers/webui_peers.sh):
Emits data/peers/generated/peers.json with the peerList output and a
generated_at envelope. Hooked into webuiLibrePortalUpdate alongside the
backup generators.
Frontend:
- New top-level /peers route in spa.js (PeersPage class, peers-content.html).
- 'Peers' nav item in the topbar between Backups and the right-side controls.
- Add-peer modal with friendly-name + kind + hostname + preferred-location
selector (populated from the existing backup-locations data).
- Per-peer card with status dot, last-checked time, Check + Remove buttons.
- Phase 3 kinds appear in the kind dropdown as disabled options so users
can see what's coming.
Source-array wiring:
- generate_arrays.sh auto-created files_peer.sh from the new peer/ dir.
- cli_files.sh + app_files.sh include ${peer_scripts[@]} alphabetically.
- files_webui.sh auto-picked-up the new peers/ generator subfolder.
The migrate-tab friendly-name overlay (use peer names in /backup/migrate
when a peer record exists for a hostname) is intentionally deferred — it's
a 5-line frontend lookup once peers.json is loaded; cleaner to add after
Phase 3 ships its peer-detail view.

Phase 1 of the migration-system refresh. Surfaces Phase 0's kernel
(libreportal restore migrate ...) as a WebUI flow so users don't have
to drop to the CLI to pull an app from a peer's backups.
backend / data generator:
scripts/webui/data/generators/backup/webui_backup_migrate.sh
Walks every enabled backup location, lists every (other_host, app)
pair with snapshot count + latest id/date, and emits a single
destination summary block (installed apps, running apps, disk free)
so the frontend can compute collisions and warnings without per-row
API round-trips. Filters out our own hostname — we don't migrate to
ourselves. Output: data/backup/generated/migrate.json.
Hooked into the standard webuiLibrePortalUpdate refresh pipeline,
so 'libreportal regen webui' (and the periodic task-processor poll)
keep it fresh on their own.
frontend:
- New 'Migrate' sidebar tab on /backup, sits between Locations and
Configuration. Path-based URL: /backup/migrate.
- Per-source-host cards listing every available app, with snapshot
count + relative-time hint, collision dot when the app is already
installed here, and per-app + per-host migrate buttons.
- Confirm modal with two checkboxes matching the kernel's defaults:
[✓] Back up the destination's existing copy first (pre-migrate
backup; auto-disabled when there's nothing to back up)
[✓] Rewrite host-bound URLs to this host (URL rewrite
— uncheck only to keep source hostnames)
On confirm, runs 'libreportal restore migrate app/system …' via the
task system; opt-out checkboxes append --no-pre-backup / --keep-urls
only when the user un-ticks, matching the kernel's default-on flags.
- Empty state when no other hosts have visible backups, explaining
the shared-backup-location prerequisite.
The CLI dispatcher hooks (Phase 0) wire restore migrate app/system to
migrateApplyApp/migrateApplySystem, so the WebUI gets pre-backup safety,
URL rewrite, and structured progress (when --json-progress is set; not
needed here yet — the task system's log tail is enough for v1).

Phase 0 of the migration-system refresh. Replaces the 77-line
scripts/migrate/ with a properly-shaped kernel that Phase 1 (WebUI) and
Phase 3 (direct peer SSH) can both build on.
New module layout (6 files):
migrate_progress.sh — migrateEmit JSON-per-line helper; opt-in via
MIGRATE_JSON_PROGRESS=1, writes to fd 3 if open
(clean WebUI streaming channel) else stdout.
migrate_discover.sh — migrateDiscoverHosts / migrateDiscoverApps /
migrateDiscoverAppDetail (JSON {snapshots, latest_*}).
Old migrateDiscoverAppsForHost kept as back-compat.
migrate_preflight.sh — migratePreflight emits one JSON object with
snapshot{id,date}, destination{installed,running,
disk_free_kb}, collision{occurs,default_action,
pre_backup_default}, url_rewrite{default_action,
per_app_opt_out}, warnings[], errors[].
Exit 0 on usable preflight, 1 on hard error.
migrate_url_rewrite.sh— Host-bound CFG_<APP>_* fields (URL/HOST/DOMAIN/
DOMAIN_PREFIX/HOSTNAME/PUBLIC_URL) get rewritten
from the destination's install-template after
restore — so a moved app stops claiming the
source's hostnames. Per-app opt-out via
CFG_<APP>_MIGRATE_URL_REWRITE=false. All other
fields (DB passwords, API keys, prefs) carry
over from the source unchanged.
migrate_pre_backup.sh — migratePreBackupDestination takes a snapshot of
the destination's existing <app> (tagged
pre-migrate=<UTC timestamp>) before the wipe.
Default ON; opt-out with --no-pre-backup. Safety
net for the always-replace collision policy.
migrate_apply.sh — migrateApplyApp / migrateApplySystem. Parses
--no-pre-backup / --keep-urls / --json-progress
opts, runs preflight → pre-backup → restoreAppStart
(existing flow) → URL rewrite → re-deploy compose.
migrateApp / migrateSystem kept as shims so the
old CLI surface still works.
CLI dispatcher (cli_restore_commands.sh + cli_restore_header.sh):
Existing 'restore migrate app/system/discover' calls all still work.
New verbs:
restore migrate list <host> [loc_idx]
restore migrate preflight <host> <app> [loc_idx] ← JSON, for the WebUI
Design choices baked in (per the spec):
- Always-replace collision (no multi-install of an app), safety net is the
on-by-default pre-migrate backup.
- URL rewrite by host-bound suffix list, not per-field allowlist — works
out-of-the-box for new apps without extra config.
- migrateEmit fd-3 contract is what Phase 1's WebUI will stream; falls
back to stdout in interactive CLI so dev/debug just works.
- Transport-agnostic: nothing in this kernel knows whether the backup
location is local/SSH/S3/Connect — engineSnapshotsJson + engineBackupApp
do that, so Connect (the future blind-relay) plugs in as 'just another
location kind' with zero kernel changes.
Smoke-tested: all 13 public functions register; JSON emit produces correct
escaping (quoted strings vs bare numerics) and respects MIGRATE_JSON_PROGRESS.

The migrate/ helpers were either uncallable or no-ops:
- migrateAppsToNewNetwork + updateComposeFileNetwork: never called from
anywhere. The intended sed-on-compose subnet rewrite would also have
fought the tag system / network_resources DB.
- checkAppNetworkCompatibility: called from updateDockerNetworkConfig as
a gate, but never explicitly returns, so it's effectively always-true
and both branches do the same work. Pure noise.
- getInstalledApps: only used by the above.
- updateDockerNetworkConfig: collapses to a 2-line 'CFG := docker's
reported subnet' adoption — inlined into check_docker_network.sh as
adoptDockerSubnet(), which is what it actually does.
The legitimate 'subnet changed, refresh apps' path is already covered by
the idempotent per-app reinstall (dockerInstallApp ... reset_network=true
→ clears DB allocations → installer re-runs → ipUpdateComposeTags picks
fresh IPs from the current CFG_NETWORK_SUBNET). Migration (infrastructure
regen) vs restore (data) stays clean: reinstall regenerates compose+IPs,
restore lays data on top. No new pathway needed.
Files dropped:
scripts/docker/network/migrate/migrate_apps_to_new_network.sh
scripts/docker/network/migrate/migrate_check_app_network_compatibility.sh
scripts/docker/network/migrate/migrate_get_installed_apps.sh
scripts/docker/network/migrate/migrate_update_compose_file_network.sh
scripts/docker/network/migrate/migrate_update_docker_network_config.sh
Plus the now-empty migrate/ subdir; files_docker.sh regenerated to drop
the references.

If it's gluetun code, it lives with gluetun. Both functions in
scripts/config/tags/processors/tags_processor_network_mode.sh manipulate gluetun
markers / gluetun's compose, so move them into containers/gluetun/scripts/
gluetun_network.sh and rename to the per-app-hook convention:
tagsProcessorNetworkMode -> appNetworkApplyMode_gluetun
tagsProcessorGluetunForwardedPorts -> appNetworkRegisterPorts_gluetun
Central call sites are now provider-agnostic — no "gluetun" literal anywhere:
- docker_config_setup_data.sh: an app routing via CFG_<APP>_NETWORK=<provider>
triggers `appNetworkApplyMode_<provider>` + `appNetworkRegisterPorts_<provider>`
via declare -F, so any future gateway provider plugs in with no engine edits.
- uninstall_app.sh: loops every `appNetworkRegisterPorts_*` hook (each self-skips
when its provider isn't installed), so removing a routed app refreshes the
right provider with no provider name in central code.
Delete tags_processor_network_mode.sh; regenerate arrays. Verified with stubs:
default mode no-ops, gluetun-routed app fires both hooks, gluetun itself is
skipped, unknown provider is silently no-op, uninstall loop calls registerPorts.
Drive-by cleanup: 9 stale "${X_scripts[@]}" array references in app_files.sh /
cli_files.sh (gluetun + headscale from this session's moves, plus 7 pre-existing:
command/ssl/swapfile/ufw/ufwd/user — all from older refactors that left them
behind). Each expanded to nothing at runtime (harmless), but they're dead
misleading refs. Cleaned both files; every remaining array ref now points to a
real files_*.sh.

dockerCheckAllowedInstall was a one-app `case` whose only active caller was the
wireguard app itself — so inline its check (abort if a host WireGuard exists at
/etc/wireguard/params, which would collide on the wg kernel module + UDP 51820)
directly into containers/wireguard/wireguard.sh and delete
scripts/docker/app/checks/allowed_install.sh.
The protection is unchanged; wireguard is now fully self-contained and the last
app name leaves central install code. Regenerated arrays. (The only remaining
dockerCheckAllowedInstall references are in scripts/unused/ — retired apps,
never sourced.)

(a) Docs: reserve tools/ scripts/ resources/ as LibrePortal folder names (apps must
not bind-mount to them); document resources/ as the home for nest-able data AND for
.sh payloads that execute on load (vs scripts/ for sourced functions); document the
backup model (what's captured vs reproducible).
(b) System-config backup so a bare-metal restore is self-sufficient — this is why
the system root is its own tree. New scripts/backup/system/backup_system.sh:
- backupSystemConfig snapshots <system>/configs (global settings, WebUI creds, and
the BACKUP-LOCATION creds — otherwise the keys to reach your own backups live only
on the box) to every enabled location. Lightweight static-dir snapshot — it does
NOT go through backupAppStart (no containers to quiesce / DBs to dump).
- restic adapter resticBackupSystemToLocation (tag system=config) + dispatcher
engineBackupSystem; restore via resticRestoreSystemLatest / engineRestoreSystemLatest
+ backupRestoreSystemConfig (restores to a STAGING dir — never auto-overwrites
live config).
- backupAllApps runs it after the app loop.
WebUI exclusion: backupAllApps skips the 'libreportal' app — its frontend + generated
JSON regenerate, and its only state (the login) is in the system config now captured
above. Nothing in its data dir warrants a snapshot.
Verified with stubs: app loop skips libreportal + invokes the system backup; the
system backup dispatches to both locations; backup/restore function names pair with
the dispatcher. NOTE: restic-only (the sole live engine adapter); end-to-end repo
round-trip still needs a live box before being relied on.

Move the whole central scripts/headscale/ tree into containers/headscale/, the
last app-specific dir living centrally:
- 11 sourced function files (incl. the former local/ remote/ subdirs) flattened
into containers/headscale/scripts/ — flat because the container scan is
maxdepth 3, so one subfolder level is the limit; basenames already encode the
local/remote distinction.
- tailscale.sh is a CONTAINER PAYLOAD (ends in a bare `install_tailscale` call,
runs apt/curl) — it must never be sourced into the manager, so it goes to
containers/headscale/resources/ (pruned by the scan), NOT scripts/. Verified
install_tailscale does not leak into the runtime after sourcing.
- Fix tailscaleInstallToContainer to copy the payload from its new resources/
path (it previously referenced ${install_scripts_dir}tailscale.sh, which never
matched the file's actual location) and drop the dead commented docker-cp line.
- Remove the now-moot headscale special-case from generate_arrays.sh; regenerate
(files_headscale.sh drops — headscale is fully container-scanned now).
All 11 functions source + define cleanly; callers resolve by name regardless of
location.

Move scripts/webui/data/generators/apps/webui_gluetun_providers.sh ->
containers/gluetun/scripts/gluetun_providers.sh and replace the gluetun-specific
gated call in webui_updater.sh with a generic per-app loop: an installed app may
define appWebuiRefresh_<app> (in its scripts/) for data it wants refreshed on
every WebUI update. gluetun provides appWebuiRefresh_gluetun (a thin wrapper over
webuiGenerateGluetunProviders).
- No gluetun-specific code remains in central WebUI code — it's a true drop-in.
- Install gate preserved + generalized: the loop iterates the manager-owned
install templates (listable) and tests each app's live compose directly (works
without list perm on the container-user data dir), so non-users never pay for it.
- webuiGenerateGluetunProviders keeps its name (still called by the installer and
the gluetun_refresh_providers tool); now sourced via the container scan.
- Regenerate arrays (generator drops out of files_webui).
Loop verified with stubs: only installed apps with a defined hook fire; apps
without a hook are skipped; nothing fires when nothing's installed.

Replace the central app-name if-ladder in app_update_specifics.sh with a generic
dispatcher: each app ships containers/<app>/scripts/<app>_update_specifics.sh
defining appUpdateSpecifics_<app> (live-sourced by the container scan, dispatched
by `declare -F` — same pattern as tools). A hook may set shouldrestart=true. Apps
with no specifics ship no hook.
- Move the adguard/pihole (DNS updater), dashy (conf refresh), focalboard (nobody
ownership + restart), and libreportal (webui regen) branches to per-app hooks.
- Move scripts/gluetun/gluetun_route_apps.sh -> containers/gluetun/scripts/
(scripts/gluetun/ removed).
- Move scripts/install/install_crowdsec.sh -> containers/crowdsec/scripts/
crowdsec_install_host.sh; fix the path note in crowdsec.sh.
- Regenerate arrays (moved files drop out; the per-app files are container-scanned,
not arrayed).
Dispatch verified with stubs: adguard/pihole/dashy/focalboard/libreportal behave
identically to the old ladder (incl. shouldrestart propagation), apps without a
hook are a clean no-op. The CLI itself had no per-app branches — app-specific CLI
is already the (now fully modular) tools system.

Add `lpRegen` (scripts/webui/webui_regen.sh) — one entry point that rebuilds the
file-derived artifacts whose sources changed, so callers don't have to know which
generator owns what. Self-heal is a cheap `find -newer` mtime compare (no watcher
/ daemon): a stage runs only when a source is newer than its artifact, or --force.
- `libreportal regen [all|webui|arrays] [--force]` CLI command (new category).
- Task processor idle tick runs a throttled `regen webui` poll, so an app dropped
in out-of-band (drag-drop / marketplace) appears on its own — no manual command,
no inotify (works on the relocatable/external-drive roots where inotify can't).
- make_release.sh guards against shipping stale source arrays (regenerate; abort
if the committed tree was out of date), killing the "forgot generate_arrays" bug
class at the build boundary.
- Document the front door in DEVELOPMENT.md.
webui scope rebuilds from containers/<app>/{*.config,tools/*.tools.json}; arrays
scope from scripts/** (a dev/build concern — a no-op on a normal install). Gate

Each app now carries everything under containers/<app>/: Tools-tab actions in
tools/ (declaration <app>.tools.json + function <app>_<tool_id>.sh) and logic
helpers in scripts/ (e.g. <app>_auth.sh). The container scan live-sources every
.sh under the app (maxdepth 3, prunes only resources/) and webui_tools.sh
auto-merges the .tools.json, so an app is a true drop-in — no central edit, no
array regen.
- Empty the central webui_tools.sh heredoc; all 34 tools across 11 apps now
come from per-app declarations (verified byte-identical to the old output).

Establish the self-contained tools convention and prove it on a core app:
- discovery now reads containers/<app>/tools/<app>.tools.json (the tools/ subfolder);
tool functions live at containers/<app>/tools/*.sh, auto-sourced by the container
scan (depth 3) — no scripts/app/ entry, no array regen.
- adguard migrated: its 2 Tools-tab actions (reset_password, apply_dns_updater) moved
to containers/adguard/tools/ + tools/adguard.tools.json, and dropped from the
central webui_tools.sh heredoc. adguard_auth.sh stays in scripts/app/ — it's a logic
helper, NOT a tool (the key distinction: only DECLARED tools move).
Central + per-app styles coexist (pihole etc. still central), so the remaining apps
can migrate one at a time with nothing breaking. Verified: heredoc valid sans adguard,
per-app merge re-adds adguard's 2 tools, scripts array dropped the moved fns.

Surface the publish step through the existing Tools system (apps-tools.json -> Tools
tab + 'libreportal app tool <app> publish'), so the docroot can be (re)built from
the WebUI instead of a manual cd + script.
- webui_tools.sh: declare a 'publish' tool (no inputs) for getlibreportal + weblibreportal.
- scripts/app/containers/getlibreportal/getlibreportal_publish.sh (appGetlibreportalPublish):
runs the host's publish.sh into the served data dir, as the container user (owns it).
- scripts/app/containers/weblibreportal/weblibreportal_publish.sh (appWeblibreportalPublish):
builds Eleventy as the manager (owns the install tree), then syncs the result into
the container-user-owned docroot — handling the build-vs-write owner split.
- Both guard for the build prerequisites (repo source / npm / dist) and fail with a
clear message; regenerated the sourced-file arrays.
Honest status: scaffolding only — wiring verified (dispatch names match, files sourced,
JSON valid) but the end-to-end tool RUN is untested, and it's build-box-only (needs the
repo checkout + npm + a built dist/). These hosting apps are dev-only and headed for a
separate repo; this just sets the automation up so it's ready to iterate on.

CFG_DOCKER_MANAGER_USER / installDockerManagerUser was a chrooted SFTP file-access
user — unrelated to the LibrePortal control-plane manager (sudo_user_name), and
the source of the 'two managers' confusion. It was permanently-off dead code: the
gate CFG_DOCKER_MANAGER_ENABLED and the CFG_DOCKER_MANAGER_USER/_PASS keys are
defined in no config template, so it never ran. Its SSH-key-management sibling
(unused/ssh_manager.sh) was already retired; admin host SSH access is handled by
the current /ssh page + scripts/ssh/host_access.sh.
Move install_user_manager.sh / uninstall_user_manager.sh / check_manager.sh to
scripts/unused/manager/ (recoverable, matches the graveyard convention — not
deleted, in case the SFTP-user idea is rebuilt cleanly later), drop the two call
sites (start_preinstall.sh, check_requirements.sh), regenerate the arrays.

Introduce scripts/source/paths.sh as the canonical path resolver for three
independently-relocatable roots:
LP_SYSTEM_DIR manager-owned control plane (configs/logs/install/db/ssl/ssh/migrate)
LP_CONTAINERS_DIR container-user-owned live app data
LP_BACKUPS_DIR container-user-owned backup repos (own mount-able)
Roots come from the environment when set (install bakes them; CLI/app inherit
from init.sh), else default to /libreportal-*. A transitional compat default
keeps EXISTING installs (legacy single /docker tree, by config marker) on /docker
until a deliberate reinstall, so deploying this never strands a running box.
- init.sh derives the same vars inline (self-contained for the bare /root/init.sh
reinstall case); paths.sh mirrors it for the standalone task/check processors,
which now self-locate their scripts dir and source it.
- Replace functional /docker literals with the derived vars across runtime,
install, backup, crontab, crowdsec/restic, headscale, and reinstall paths;
clean the inert '== /docker/containers/*' guard fallbacks to the variable form.
- backend: CONTAINERS_DIR now from LP_CONTAINERS_DIR (compose env, filled at
generation via a new CONTAINERS_DIR_TAG), legacy-safe default for un-recreated
containers.
- backup default path falls back to the backups root; exclude paths.sh from the
sourced-file arrays (bootstrap file, sourced explicitly).
The CLI-wrapper heredoc + root helpers still reference /docker; those get baked
in phase 3. No layout/ownership change yet (phase 2).

Bring the remaining deferred subsystems under the scoped sudoers, and drop
the one that's redundant.
Backup engines + app configs -> root-owned helpers (same pattern as
ownership/dns/ssh/socket/svc):
- scripts/system/libreportal-bininstall: install <restic|kopia> — does the
whole pkg-manager/signed-download install itself for a fixed, validated
engine name (no blanket sudo apt-get/install). restic_install/kopia_install
call it.
- scripts/system/libreportal-appcfg: {adguard-auth <user> <bcrypt>|
crowdsec-priority|owncloud-config <public> <host> <ip> <public_ip>} —
faithful ports of the AdGuard yaml / CrowdSec bouncer / ownCloud config.php
rewrites, fixed paths + validated args. adguard_auth/crowdsec_fix_priority/
owncloud_setup_config call it.
- run_privileged: runBinInstall / runAppCfg; init.sh installs + allowlists both.
Retire standalone (host-level) WireGuard — it's a duplicate of the
containerized containers/wireguard app (+ headscale mesh), its slirp4netns
speed rationale is largely moot with a better rootless net backend / typical
WAN-bound throughput, and it was the heaviest host-root subsystem (apt +
sysctl + iptables + /etc/wireguard), the worst fit for the rootless/
least-privilege direction:
- moved scripts/wireguard/ + manage_wireguard.sh + check_wireguard.sh to
scripts/unused/; dropped the install-path call, the Tools menu 'w' entry,
and the requirement check; removed the half-built libreportal-wg helper.
- generate_arrays.sh now also skips system/ (root-owned helpers, never
sourced); arrays regenerated (files_wireguard.sh pruned).

Add webui_system_metrics.sh, run each minute from webuiSystemUpdate:
- whole-server snapshot (metrics.json): CPU% + load, memory + swap,
per-mount disk + inodes, network rx/tx rate, docker summary
- capped ring buffer (metrics_history.json, 24h default) for trend charts
- per-app docker stats grouped by compose project (metrics_apps.json)
plus a short per-app history (metrics_apps_history.json) for sparklines
CPU% and network rate use stateful deltas stashed beside the JSON; all
host metrics read from /proc and docker via runFileOp, so it works rootless.

The install/start paths and the switch reconcile managed /docker ownership
separately, so a fresh install produced different ownership than a post-switch
state — the root cause of the rootless 'touch: Permission denied' storm.
Consolidate onto the reconcile model:
- dockerContainerOwner(): single definition of the mode's container owner
(rooted -> manager, rootless -> config-authoritative docker install user).
- reconcileContainersTopOwnership(): owns + makes traversable the structural
containers/ top dir; now also run by the switch reconcile (previously only
the install pass set it, so a rootless->rooted switch left it stale).
- reconcileWebuiDirOwnership(): now uses dockerContainerOwner.
- reconcileDockerOwnership(): calls both helpers.
- fixFolderPermissions(): slimmed to the +x traversal bits; its ad-hoc
containers/ chown is now the shared helper.
- fixPermissionsBeforeStart(): drop changeRootOwnedFilesAndFolders (a
pre-de-sudo band-aid that only fixed root-owned files and ran contrary to
the don't-touch-third-party-data rule); reconcile the WebUI dir via the
shared helper instead. Delete the now-unused root_files_folders.sh and
regenerate the source arrays.

Single place that decides how a privileged op runs by Docker mode:
- runFileOp / runFileWrite: /docker data-plane ops — rooted uses sudo (identical
to today), rootless runs as the unprivileged install user (no root).
- runSystem: genuine system-admin ops, sudo in both modes, funnelled here so it
can later be confined to a scoped sudoers allowlist.
Call sites converted to these are byte-for-byte unchanged under rooted, so
existing/live boxes can't regress; rootless gets the de-privileged path.

Reads files the backup user can't see from the host (container-owned, e.g.
Nextcloud's www-data data dir) by streaming them out THROUGH the container
(docker exec tar) — no host root, no host read perms, works rooted + rootless.
Extracts to staging as plain files so restic keeps full dedup + per-file
restore (not a piped tar blob); the live path is excluded from the snapshot.
Restore streams the staging copy back through a throwaway in-namespace
container that recreates the tree with the app's uid:gid.
Declared via a libreportal.backup.files compose label; Nextcloud (html, 33:33)
is the first to use it. Live capture failure falls back to stop-snapshot-start.

Fresh, on-demand inbound SSH-access management for the host (replaces the old
maze). scripts/ssh/host_access.sh manages the install user's authorized_keys —
add a pasted public key (validated), list, remove — and toggles sshd password
login behind a lockout guard (won't disable passwords with no key; won't drop
the last key while passwords are off; sshd -t before reload, with backup).
New 'ssh' CLI category (status/key-add/key-remove/password-auth/generate) and
a webuiGenerateSshAccess snapshot (data/ssh/access.json: user, password_auth,
authorized keys as type+fingerprint+comment — public only) wired into the
regen chain. Nothing runs automatically; only explicit admin actions change
anything. WebUI page next.

The old inbound-admin-SSH layer was effectively dead: gated on config flags
that don't exist (CFG_SSHKEY_*_ENABLED, CFG_REQUIREMENT_SSHREMOTE), its
authorized_keys installer was unwired, and its download path (sshdownload
container) was already retired. What remained reachable was either a no-op or
a lockout footgun (disable-passwords with no working key install).
Remove it whole: scripts/ssh/*, the four SSH requirement checks, the SSH tools
menu, the dead webui SSH populater, and the unused ssh DB inserts; drop their
calls from the start/requirements/menu flows. A fresh, WebUI-driven admin SSH
access feature replaces it next.
Also make generate_arrays.sh self-healing: prune files_*.sh whose source
folder no longer exists (cleared the now-stale files_ssh.sh + an orphan
files_api.sh) so removed areas don't linger in the sourced set.

New script files are sourced from the committed files_*.sh arrays (built by
generate_arrays.sh), not a live tree scan — and quick deploys don't rerun
generate_arrays. So the schema generator added last commit was never loaded
live: webuiGenerateBackupSchema was undefined, breaking the webui_updater
backup chain at that step (skipping the passwords regen after it) and leaving
schema.json un-generated.
Regenerate the arrays so the file is registered; deploy now sources it and
'webui generate all' rebuilds schema.json on its own.

Adds a logical-dump path so apps with a database can be backed up with zero
downtime and full consistency, instead of stopping the container.
- backup_db.sh: dump each declared DB live (mysqldump --single-transaction /
pg_dump / sqlite3 .backup), exclude the raw data dir from the snapshot, and
replay the dump on restore (pre-start rehydrate for sqlite, post-start load
for server engines).
- Databases are declared via a 'libreportal.backup.db' compose label so the
metadata travels with the app in the snapshot.
- New 'auto' strategy (now the default): live where a DB is dumpable or the app
is marked live-safe, stop-snapshot-start otherwise. Explicit stop/pause/live
remain as overrides.
- restic/borg/kopia adapters honour an exclude list on the live path.
- Manifest records the resolved per-app strategy and dumped databases.

Application backups were driven by one crontab entry per app, each offset by
id * CFG_BACKUP_CRONTAB_APP_INTERVAL minutes. That minute offset is written
straight into cron's 0-59 minute field, so past ~20 apps it overflowed into
an invalid entry that silently never fired, and the fixed spacing could not
serialize backups that ran longer than the gap.
Replace it with a single daily entry (`libreportal backup scheduled`) that
enqueues a backup task per enabled app. The existing systemd task processor
drains them serially — no minute overflow, real serialization, and backups
are now visible/cancellable in the Tasks UI. Per-app enable is read from
CFG_<APP>_BACKUP at schedule time instead of being mirrored into crontab.
Removes the stagger machinery (timing/setup/check/remove scripts), the
now-unused cron_jobs table + insert, and the CFG_BACKUP_CRONTAB_APP_INTERVAL
config knob and its WebUI field.

setupLocalDnsRewrites points every configured domain at the server's LAN IP
inside the self-hosted resolver, so app subdomains resolve locally and hit
Traefik directly (valid certs, no router hairpin). AdGuard gets a wildcard
rewrite per domain via its REST API; Pi-hole gets per-host A records in the
supported, mounted custom.list (no wildcard support there). Safe by
construction: idempotent, guarded by installed-checks, cannot corrupt the
resolver. Hooked into the Apply-DNS actions and resolver install. Also drops
the dead HOST_NAME read from the setupDNSIP stub.
NOTE: needs a live smoke-test — the AdGuard API call and Pi-hole reload
can't be exercised without the running containers.

Replace the static one-host-per-app model with per-port routers: each
Traefik-managed port carries a subdomain (12-col PORT format) and gets a
DOMAINSUBNAME_TAG_<n> host, so one container can serve unlimited hosts.
tagsProcessorPortSubdomains stamps per-port hosts (subdomain @/empty = apex,
multi-level allowed); tagsProcessorPortRouterBlocks comments out
# TRAEFIK_PORT_<n>_BEGIN/END blocks for non-Traefik ports so unfilled
placeholders never ship (mirrors GLUETUN_OFF). Convert all 27 router apps
(subdomains seeded from HOST_NAME; headscale admin. prefix -> subdomain).
