webuiUpdaterScan now tells the truth instead of hardcoding update_available=false.
Per app it resolves three facts (see roadmap §2): the running RepoDigest (one
`docker inspect` of the anchor image), the display version (OCI label →
versioned tag → channel·shortdigest), and — throttled — the registry's current
index digest for the channel tag (`docker buildx imagetools inspect`, the same
identity as RepoDigest, verified exact). update_available = the two digests
differ. Emits type (versioned|rolling), channel, current/available digests +
versions, and a services[] array (every image line, anchor flagged).
- Registry lookups throttled separately from the scan: CFG_UPDATER_REGISTRY_
INTERVAL (min, default 360; 0 = local-only), own /tmp stamp, reuse of the
prior available_digest between windows so the app list still refreshes every
scan. UPDATER_REGISTRY_FORCE=1 forces a live pull (the Check-now button).
Registry failure (offline/rate-limited) = "unknown", never a false "changed".
- Digest-compare fully detects rolling apps' new builds; for versioned apps it
catches rebuilds of the pinned tag (newer-version enumeration is a later
step) — honest per type, and versioned apps are user-picked via P1b anyway.
- Fixes a P1b regression: updaterPrimaryImage now strips the trailing version
sentinel comment (`s/ #.*//`) via _updaterCleanImageRef — without this the
anchor ref (and the live CVE scanner's image arg) carried the comment.
- JSON built with jq for safe escaping; jq-less fallback keeps output valid.
Verified via a simulated 2-app install: navidrome → "0.62.0" (OCI label) +
detected update; rolling app → channel·shortdigest + update; throttled re-run
reuses the prior digest; all output valid JSON.

The "Refreshing backup data..." step on every WebUI update fired one
`restic stats` (restore-size mode — the slowest restic op) plus ~4
identical unfiltered `restic snapshots --json` pulls per enabled
location (dashboard, snapshots, app-status, migrate each pulled their
own), all over a fresh SSH connection for remote repos, on every pass
with no throttle — the slow, "frozen"-looking line users hit on poor
links.
Two fixes:
1. Dedupe. engineSnapshotsJson transparently memoises the first
unfiltered whole-repo pull per location to a shared cache dir
(LP_SNAP_CACHE_DIR, set by webui_updater around the chain), so the
four generators reuse one restic call instead of four. Filtered and
failed/empty pulls always fall through to a live call.
2. Throttle. Backups and location changes already regenerate this data
live when they happen, so the routine pass is only a drift catch-up.
Split the cheap local-only generators (engines/schema/passwords —
no remote I/O) out to always run, and gate the remote pull behind
CFG_BACKUP_DASHBOARD_REFRESH_INTERVAL (minutes, default 30, 0 =
every update). A completed backup touches a dirty marker that forces
the next pass to pull; WEBUI_UPDATER_FORCE still forces a full
refresh.
Net: N locations x 5 remote restic calls every update -> 1 call per
location, only when something actually changed.

Config sections (Basic, Mail, DNS, Firewall, …) rendered as a bare name. Add a
small data-driven icon before each: config files now carry a `# @icon <emoji>`
directive in their header, the config generator surfaces it as the subcategory's
`icon`, and the config editor prepends it to the section <h3> (covers every
render path — regular/master/toggle/domains/catalogs/whitelist — since they all
drop displaySubcategory straight into the heading).
- webui_generate_configs.sh: parse `# @icon` (first 10 lines) → emit "icon".
- config-manager.js: prepend subcategoryData.icon to the section title.
- configs/**: added an @icon to all 23 base config files (backup/general/network/
security/webui). The live install's config files get the same directive + a
configs.json regen so existing installs show the icons too.

Replace the click-to-scan-only flow with a self-throttled auto-scan that
rides the existing task-processor idle poll (the same shape as the
network-drift check — no new daemon, unit, or endpoint):
- 'libreportal updater check auto' gates on the age of the generated
updates.json vs CFG_UPDATER_SCAN_INTERVAL (minutes, default 30,
0 disables); a fresh file makes the 60s tick a single stat() + return.
Manual checks and post-update rescans reset the clock for free, and a
missing file means the first scan runs ~a minute after install.
- Eligible signed hotfixes keep flowing through artifactApplyAuto, which
only enqueues ordinary tasks — mutations stay on the task path.
- Open updater surfaces (standalone /updater and the fleet Overview's
headless UpdaterPage) follow along with a 60s static-JSON re-read that
repaints only when a generated_at stamp changed; timer released via
dispose() on unmount, ticks skipped while hidden.
- Empty states now say the first scan happens automatically; Check now
stays as the immediate manual override.

The remaining WebUI generators built JSON into a temp file inside the
output dir then placed it with mv/sudo mv + a createTouch that can't re-own,
so in rootless they produced root/libreportal-owned data and 'touch:
Permission denied' spam. Two problems: the temp lived in the (now
dockerinstall-owned) output dir, which the cron updater — running as
libreportal — can't write; and the final file landed wrong-owned.
Move each temp to mktemp (/tmp, writable by whoever runs the updater) and
place the result via runFileWrite (writes as the container owner:
dockerinstall in rootless, manager in rooted), dropping the redundant
createTouch; convert the dir mkdirs to runFileOp. Covers apps
(services/config/tools/app_status/gluetun/config_patch), categories
(app/config-categories/field-mappings), config (configs.json) and system
(info/memory/disk/update). The logs file is handled by the now mode-aware
createFolders + createTouch.

The config generator only scanned flat per-category files, so the dynamic
CFG_BACKUP_LOC_N_* keys carried no titles/descriptions/options — the Locations
editor had to hardcode that metadata in backup-page.js. Add a pass that
descends into configs/backup/locations/<n>/location.config and emits each key
(value/title/description/options) into the config map, plus an "advanced"
flag parsed from a **ADVANCED** token in the field comment (stripped from the
user-facing description).
These keys use subcategory "backup_locations", which isn't in any category's
subcategory_order, so the generic /config page ignores them — only the custom
Locations editor consumes them. URI, SSH port, and append-only are marked
advanced. Verified: configs.json stays valid JSON and /config subcategories
are unchanged.

The WebUI data snapshots (locations.json, dashboard.json, snapshots_*.json,
etc.) are regenerated on every wizard/config change. Each file emitted two
extra success lines via createTouch — "Touching <file>" and "Updating
<file> with <user> ownership" — which spammed the output around the genuinely
useful "... JSON regenerated" line.
Add an optional "silent" flag to createTouch (third arg; default keeps the
existing loud behaviour for interactive install flows) and pass it from every
WebUI data generator/task. Touch + chown still run; only the logging is
suppressed for these background regenerations.

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.
