`libreportal app generate <name>` (and the menu's "g. Generate App" entry)
was broken three independent ways and incompatible with the per-app
architecture the project actually uses now:
1. Copies from $install_containers_dir/template/ which doesn't exist —
the only template/ in the tree was in scripts/unused/OLD_CONTAINERS/
and was never installed into the live tree. cp -r would just fail.
2. Every sed call used BSD/macOS syntax `sed -i '' -e …`. On Linux
(every distro this targets) the empty '' becomes a positional file
argument, so the substitutions never ran. 8 calls, all broken.
3. Even if it had run, the produced skeleton would have been a
pre-modular-tools / pre-per-port-subdomain app shape: no tools/,
no scripts/ subdir, HOST_NAME=test in the .config. Every active
containers/<app>/ today carries the modular layout the rest of the
framework expects.
Plus the recent cleanups (the prompt loop fix in 9ffc8e4, the per-port
subdomain refactor in 2e4f420) had been peeling pieces off it without
the root question — does the function still belong? — getting asked.
Delete the whole surface:
- scripts/app/app_generate.sh (157 lines, the function body)
- scripts/unused/OLD_CONTAINERS/template/ (the never-installed source
files appGenerate would have copied — stale enough to still carry
HOST_NAME=test, CFG_<X>_HOST_NAME, and 248 lines of compose template)
- menu entry "g. Generate App" + its dispatch in menu_main.sh
- "generate" case branch in cli_app_commands.sh
- `libreportal app generate` line in cli_app_header.sh
- The corresponding entries auto-drop from files_app.sh +
function_manifest.sh via regen.
New apps are added the way the catalog already grew — by hand-crafting
containers/<app>/{<app>.sh, <app>.config, docker-compose.yml,
tools/<app>.tools.json, scripts/<app>_*.sh}. Copying an existing app's
folder + renaming is the closest thing to a "generator" and it's a one-
command operation.
Net: -556 lines, no behaviour lost (the function never worked).

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).
