Replace the NOPASSWD: ALL drop-in with a validated, scoped grant:
- (dockerinstall) NOPASSWD:SETENV: ALL (data plane; rootless-confined)
- (root) NOPASSWD: the 5 root-owned /usr/local/sbin/libreportal-* helpers
+ a fixed system-binary allowlist (systemctl/ufw/ufw-docker/nft/sysctl/
loginctl/service)
No bash/su/tee/cp/chmod/chown/sed/mv/rm/install — none of the
root-equivalent primitives. Also: drop '-G sudo' from the manager useradd
(privileges come from the user-specific drop-in, not group membership),
and defensively remove legacy broad grants on re-run (a NOPASSWD: ALL line
appended to the main /etc/sudoers + sudo-group membership).
Validated live end-to-end as the manager: app lifecycle, webui generate,
ownership reconcile, ssh/dns/socket/svc helpers, task service, data-plane
drop (incl. -E for backups) all denial-free; sudo bash / sudo cat shadow /
arbitrary sudo chown all denied.
Residual (still raw runSystem file-primitives, denied under the scoped
grant until they get helpers / docker-exec rework): owncloud/adguard/
crowdsec app-config edits, wireguard-standalone, restic/kopia binary
self-install. These are opt-in/deferred features.

start.sh sources init.sh for its function defs at runtime (Model A). The
top-level install-mode auto-detect + initUpdateConfigOption write ran on
every source, rewriting CFG_INSTALL_MODE via 'sudo sed' on the
manager-owned config — denied under the scoped sudoers (the last
per-command 'a password is required'), and spurious '"Auto-detected ..."'
noise. Gate both on BASH_SOURCE==$0 (executed directly only); also drop
the needless sudo from initUpdateConfigOption (config is manager-owned).

Move the last runtime-critical root file-primitive subsystems behind
root-owned helpers so the type switcher + task service work under a scoped
sudoers:
- scripts/system/libreportal-socket: {rootless|rooted} {on|off} chmod of
the docker sockets (paths computed from config, not caller-supplied;
exit 3 = absent so the *_found flags come from its exit code)
- scripts/system/libreportal-svc: GENERATES + installs the systemd unit
from config (mode/uid/baked manager) — never accepts unit content from
the caller (arbitrary unit = root). Idempotent install/enable/restart.
- ownership helper: add db-own + app-file <app> <relpath> actions
- run_privileged: runSocket / runSvc
- set_socket_permissions -> runSocket; webui_install_systemd -> runSvc
(+ crontab cleanup runs as the manager directly, no sudo -u self)
- before_start: db chown -> runOwnership db-own; traefik cert/yml ->
runOwnership app-file (retires updateFileOwnership/changeRootOwnedFile)
- init.sh installs all five helpers

Two more runtime root file-primitive subsystems moved behind self-
validating root-owned helpers so the scoped sudoers needn't grant blanket
sudo sed/tee/cp on /etc (which is root-equivalent — sudo arg wildcards
match across '/', so even path-scoped entries are bypassable):
- scripts/system/libreportal-dns: {clear|add <ip>} — edits /etc/resolv.conf
only, validates the IP argument
- scripts/system/libreportal-ssh-access: authorized_keys + sshd
PasswordAuthentication management, with the lockout guards moved INTO the
helper (the trust boundary) so a compromised manager can't bypass them
- run_privileged: _runRootHelper dispatcher + runResolv / runSshAccess
(runOwnership now uses it too)
- init.sh: initRootHelpers installs all three helpers root:root 0755 with
the manager name baked in
- setup_dns -> runResolv (+ ping de-sudo'd, works unprivileged); host_access
+ webui_ssh_access -> runSshAccess

Under Model A the runtime runs as the manager, so establishing the
/docker ownership model needs root. Granting the manager a blanket
'sudo chown'/'sudo chmod' in the scoped sudoers would be root-equivalent
(chown /etc/sudoers, ...). Introduce a self-contained, root-owned helper
that performs only a FIXED set of reconciles on FIXED LibrePortal paths,
with owners derived from config + a baked manager name (never the caller)
and a strictly-validated app-name argument.
- scripts/system/libreportal-ownership: the helper (actions: reconcile,
traversal, containers-top, app-perms, webui, taskdir, app-data-nobody)
- run_privileged: runOwnership wrapper (sudo the installed helper; run the
bundled copy directly when already root mid-install)
- init.sh: installOwnershipHelper bakes the manager name and installs it
root:root 0755 to /usr/local/sbin (manager can't modify it)
- libreportal_folders/app_folder/app_update_specifics/task processor:
delegate the ownership chowns to runOwnership instead of runSystem chown
This removes chown/chmod-on-/docker from the runtime sudo surface, a
prerequisite for a non-root-equivalent scoped sudoers.

The CLI wrapper already runs as the manager (libreportal) but then did
'sudo ./start.sh', so the whole runtime executed as root — the reason
NOPASSWD:ALL was load-bearing. Drop that sudo so start.sh runs as the
manager; also drop the now-redundant sudo from the wrapper's own
manager-owned ops (config sed, /docker/configs + /docker/install
mkdir/cp/chown/rm, 'sudo -u libreportal' git clone, chmod). Only the
'cp -f init.sh /root/' copies stay root.
Running as the manager surfaced data-plane writes that only worked under
root; fixed to be owner-correct:
- webui_system_metrics: .metrics_{cpu,net}_prev state via runFileWrite
- atomicWriteWebUI: path-aware temp+chmod+mv (atomic same-dir rename as
the path owner) instead of bare >/mv
- webui_app_config last_update trigger via runFileWrite

Model A prototype (run start.sh AS the manager, escalate only via helpers):
- check_root.sh: accept the manager user, not root-only (init.sh keeps its own
install-time root check).
- init.sh: guard the top-level root-check + installer entrypoint with
BASH_SOURCE!=$0 so it runs ONLY when init.sh is executed directly; when
start.sh sources it as the manager the entrypoint (and its root check) no
longer fires.
Also: convert bare daemon-touching 'docker' calls (no helper -> hit the
nonexistent /var/run socket in rootless) to runFileOp docker across
app_status, app_health_*, network_prune, ip_is_available, check_docker_network,
backup_db (db dumps) and crontab_check_processor. cd&&compose rooted-branches
and 'docker compose --version' checks left as-is (rooted-only / no daemon).

setupConfigsFromRepo / sync_configs_from_install used 'cp -a' of the template
over /docker/configs, so any fast/full deploy (which runs init.sh) silently
reset user config to template defaults — e.g. it flipped a live rooted box to
the new rootless template default and broke it. Use 'cp -an' (no-clobber):
fresh installs still get the full template, existing installs keep their values,
and new keys are still added by the add-only reconcile pass. This is also what
makes a rootless template default safe for existing rooted boxes.

init.sh appended 'libreportal ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL' straight to /etc/sudoers
— a malformed line there locks out sudo entirely. Move it to a validated
/etc/sudoers.d/libreportal drop-in (visudo -cf before install, 0440 root:root).
The grant is still broad; this is the single managed file we tighten to a
scoped command allowlist once the runtime no longer needs broad root. Only runs
at install, so existing boxes are untouched.

Swap the ### hash headers (isHeader) for a ╔═╗ ║ ╚═╝ double-line box and
wrap the LibrePortal logo in a matching 52-wide box. Build the rule with
printf-repeat and fixed pad widths instead of tr/${#} so multibyte box
chars stay aligned regardless of locale. Mirrors the credentials panel.
Applied to all three copies (markers.sh, init.sh, generate_arrays.sh).
