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).

- Add .backup-system-card { margin-top: 20px } — the card stands alone below the
two-column cards row (which has no bottom margin), so it was butting against it.
- Add a server-stack icon to the card header (matches the nebula stroke-icon style).
- DEVELOPMENT.md: document the dashboard "System config" card + its last-backup
status (tag system=config → `system` in the dashboard JSON), the CLI/auto paths,
and that the libreportal app is excluded from the per-app grid.

Make the system config a tracked backup, not just action buttons:
- engine: resticSystemSnapshotsJson (tag system=config) + engineSystemSnapshotsJson
dispatcher — query the system snapshots the way per-app status is queried.
- webui_backup_dashboard.sh: emit a "system": { latest_snapshot, latest_time }
object (latest system snapshot on the primary location), and exclude the
libreportal WebUI app from the per-app grid (it's intentionally not backed up, so
it no longer shows a perpetual "No backup yet" tile).
- backup dashboard card: a status line (dot + "Last backed up <relative>" / "No
backup yet"), populated in renderDashboard from d.system — mirrors the app tiles.
Verified: shell + JS parse; dashboard content assembles to valid JSON with the
system key; engine query defined + dispatched; frontend reads d.system into the
#backup-system-status element.

Add a "System config" card to the backup dashboard with two actions wired through
the task processor (same path as "Backup all apps"):
- "Back up now" -> libreportal backup system
- "Restore…" -> libreportal restore system (confirm dialog explains it lands
in a staging folder and never overwrites live config)
Card copy explains why it matters (the backup-location creds otherwise live only on
the box). Click handlers + runBackupSystem/confirmRestoreSystem added; JS parses,
data-actions match handlers, commands match the CLI subcommands.

Same class of bug as the topbar partial: icon and data-file references were
relative (icons/apps/x.svg, data/apps/...), so on deep path routes (/app/<name>,
/admin/config/x) the browser resolved them against the route dir and the SPA
catch-all served index.html with HTTP 200 instead of 404 — broken images and
silently-wrong JSON.
Make every reference absolute (anchored on the quote/backtick so already-absolute
/icons paths are untouched):
- JS: all icons/ and data/ literals + templates across components/utils/system
- html/topbar.html: logo <img>
- generators: webui_config.sh and webui_create_app_categories.sh now emit
/icons/... into apps.json / apps-categories.json (regenerated on install)
- updated the two icon-path comments to match

Path-based routes (e.g. /app/<name>) made the relative fetch('html/topbar.html')
resolve to /app/html/topbar.html. The SPA catch-all returns index.html with HTTP
200 instead of 404, so response.ok passed and index.html got injected as the
topbar, leaving #nav-app-center absent -> 'Nav element not found' in setActiveNav.
Make the topbar fetch and the loadConfig fetch absolute, and switch the remaining
relative topbar nav hrefs (index/dashboard/tasks .html) to absolute paths so the
SPA click interceptor routes them instead of doing a real browser navigation.

Replace the Admin area's ?= query URLs with clean, hierarchical paths that
mirror the breadcrumb:
/admin -> Overview
/admin/config/<category>-> Config / <category>
/admin/tools/ssh-access -> Tools / SSH Access
New /admin (+ /admin*) SPA route -> handleAdmin, which parses the path via the
shared window.adminPath / window.adminCategoryFromPath helpers and renders
through the existing ConfigManager. Legacy /config, /config?=<x> and /ssh now
redirect into the matching /admin path, so old links/bookmarks keep working
(server already serves index.html for any depth). Sidebar, Admin Overview,
dashboard link and top-nav now build /admin paths; active-nav + config data
loading recognise /admin across spa.js, topbar.js, router.js, data-loader.js.
Scope: Admin area only — /app, /apps, /tasks, /backup keep their existing ?=
URLs.

Add an Admin Overview as the Admin landing (default when you open Admin): an
ops/health board distinct from the user Dashboard. Four cards built from data
we already generate — Updates (update_status.json, with one-click update),
Backups (backup dashboard.json), SSH & Security (access.json), System
(disk/memory/system_info) — each with a Manage link into the right section.
Styled like the backup dashboard (tiles/status dots).
Wire-up: 'Overview' is the top sidebar item and the default category
(handleConfig + sidebar), rendered by AdminOverview into #config-section via a
renderConfig('overview') special case. Every Admin page now shows the same
'Admin' breadcrumb header (Overview, SSH Access, and the config categories) for
a consistent Admin → Section feel. User Dashboard gets an 'Admin overview →'
link.

Rename the Config top-nav to 'Admin' and move SSH Access into its sidebar
under a 'Tools' group, instead of a separate top-level nav item. SSH Access is
rendered by SshPage into the config main pane via a renderConfig('ssh-access')
special case; the sidebar item (config-sidebar.js) routes there. SshPage now
mounts into any container (defaults to #config-section). /ssh redirects to
/config?=ssh-access for old links; the standalone ssh-content.html is removed.
Declutters the top bar and gives system/admin features one home that scales
(updates, users, Connect settings can become sidebar entries later).

New /ssh page (topbar nav + SPA route + SshPage controller + ssh-content.html
+ ssh.css). Reads data/ssh/access.json and lets the admin: paste a public key
to authorize a machine, remove keys, and toggle key-only login — all via
'libreportal ssh ...' tasks through the backend's lockout guards. Reuses the
backup key-card styles for a consistent look. This is the inbound counterpart
to the backup location key card (outbound): same paste-a-key model, opposite
direction.

Drop the Export button from the config-backup warning banner — it's now just the alert + dismiss (x). On the Configuration tab the top-right primary action becomes an 'Export' dropdown (first item: Repository Passwords, reusing the existing export-passwords action) so more export types can be added later. Other tabs keep Backup all apps / Add location. Menu opens from the trigger and closes on outside click, item click, or tab switch.
