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.

Both now clear every guard: services are <type>-prefixed, and their host ports
became random in the previous commit.
Enabling them surfaced a real bug that would have made vaultwarden instances
fail to start, found by dry-running the clone path before trusting the flag.
Eight apps define an app-specific compose-tags hook named with the app as a
SUFFIX — appSetupComposeTags_vaultwarden — and docker_config_setup_data.sh
dispatches it as appSetupComposeTags_${app_name}. The tools rewrite only
renamed the <type>_ PREFIX form, so a clone kept the base name: it defined a
function nobody calls (colliding with the base app's), its ADMIN_TOKEN and
SIGNUPS_ALLOWED tags were never filled, and the pre-start guard would have
refused to launch the instance. Now renamed, anchored on the () of a definition
so only real function names are touched.
The same hooks pass tag NAMES as strings ("VAULTWARDEN_ADMIN_TOKEN_1_TAG"),
invisible to the lowercase renames, while the cloned compose had already moved
to <SLUG>_..._TAG. Those are rewritten too, mirroring compose rule 4. Verified:
the tags the cloned hook sets now match the cloned compose exactly.
Also affects matrix, nextcloud, speedtest, pihole, gluetun and wireguard, which
ship the same hook shape — latent for those, since none are enabled.
WebUI: the instance bar on app details rendered nothing at all for apps without
instance support, which reads as "this build has no instance feature" and sends
people hunting for a setting that isn't missing. It now states the reason where
the pills would be, and names the blocking ports when it can — the port rows
are in the config the frontend already holds, so it mirrors
_instanceCheckPortsInstanceable (skipping disabled and random rows). The other
blocker lives in the compose, which the frontend never sees, so that case is
left unexplained rather than guessed at.
Bookstack's rewritten compose and tool tree remain byte-identical to the
running instances.

Both pinned an arbitrary host port — vaultwarden 8201:80, searxng 8083:8080 —
which was the only thing blocking them from being instanced. Neither number is
meaningful the way pihole's 53 or stalwart's 25 are, so both become
random:<internal> and portAllocate assigns each install (and each future
instance) its own. The ports appeared nowhere else: no hook, no compose, no
docs. Neither app is installed on the maintainer's box, so nothing to migrate.
Both now clear every instance guard. Of the eight apps the port guard caught,
that leaves six, all genuinely one-per-host.
Also made compose rewrite rules 2 and 3 skip commented lines, for the same
reason rule 1 already does. Spotted while verifying the above: vaultwarden
parks an optional exporter behind #, and rule 2 rewrote the container_name
inside that dead block while the service key above it kept the old name,
leaving it internally inconsistent. Harmless — rule 2 is anchored on
container_name: so it could never reach the image line — but there is no reason
to touch a commented block at all. Bookstack's rewritten identities remain
byte-identical to the running instance.

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.

Every backup-scope app now carries CFG_<APP>_BACKUP_STRATEGY=auto, so the
Backup Strategy dropdown appears in each app's Advanced tab — not just the
DB apps.
To keep it honest, the 'live' option is hidden where it isn't safe:
- apps.json generator emits backup_live_capable per app (from compose backup
labels: a dumpable DB, or a live-safe marker).
- apps-manager filters the live option out of the strategy select when the
current app isn't live-capable, so apps like gitea/focalboard (a DB we don't
yet dump) never offer it.

The static per-app CFG_<APP>_HOST_NAME is gone. host_setup (the app's
canonical FQDN, feeding the legacy single DOMAINSUBNAME_DATA used by app env
vars, the app URL and trusted-domains) is now derived from the app's primary
Traefik port's subdomain: first recommended port, else first Traefik port;
@/root -> apex, set -> sub.domain, empty -> app-name. Removes HOST_NAME from
all app configs, the config-form field mapping (Hostname), the dead
headscale stub, and wireguard.sh (now uses host_setup). Completes the move to
dynamic per-port subdomain routing.

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).
