Installing rocketchat failed with
invalid IPv4 address: ParseAddr("IP_DATA_2"): unable to parse IP
ipUpdateComposeTags allocates one IP per SERVICE_TAG_N annotation and fills
IP_TAG_i only where SERVICE_TAG_i exists. The four new apps tagged only their
primary service, so every sidecar — matrix's postgres, mattermost's postgres,
rocketchat's mongo, and fifteen of stoat's sixteen — kept a literal IP_DATA_n
in the deployed compose and docker refused to create the container.
Tag every service that carries an ipv4_address, index-aligned with its IP_TAG.
For stoat that also meant moving caddy from SERVICE_TAG_1 to _6 so the indices
line up with the IPs rather than the reading order.
mastodon had the same latent break (IP_TAG_2 and _3 untagged) and is fixed the
same way — it would have failed on first install for the same reason.
SERVICE_TAG carries the compose *key*, not container_name: 'libreportal app
restart <app> <service>' passes it to 'docker compose restart', which only
understands keys.

VAPID: the two values are the halves of one P-256 keypair, not independent
secrets — the browser verifies that a push is signed by the private key matching
the public key it subscribed with. The RANDOMIZED* generators mint each
placeholder on its own, so they produced two unrelated strings and web push could
never have worked. Generate the pair in mastodon_install_post_setup the way stoat
already does, encoded as Mastodon's webpush gem expects: unpadded URL-safe base64
of the 32-byte private scalar and the 65-byte uncompressed public point, sliced
out of the SEC1 DER. Verified by rebuilding the key from the emitted private half
and re-deriving the public point — openssl accepts it and the point matches.
Generated once and never rotated (rotation would invalidate every subscription),
but a pair of the wrong shape is replaced, so an install carrying the old
unrelated strings heals itself on next install — their public half is 42 chars
where a real point is 87.
Slots: CFG_<APP>_DB_PASSWORD -> CFG_<APP>_DB_PASSWORD_1 and likewise for
DB_ROOT_PASSWORD, across mastodon, owncloud, mattermost, matrix, nextcloud and
bookstack, so a database credential is always a numbered slot and a second one is
just _2. Renaming a key means reconciliation drops the old and adds the new
holding its placeholder, so an existing install regenerates unless the value is
carried over first — documented, including that the old file survives as
.<app>.config.bak.

Five apps (mastodon, owncloud, mattermost, matrix, stoat) took their generated
secrets from the compose-side generator tags PASSWORD_TAG_<n>/RANDOM_TAG_<n>/
HEX_TAG_<n>/VAPID_TAG_<n>. Those mint a fresh secret on every templating run, so
a reinstall handed the app a new database password while its data volume kept the
one initdb was given, and the app came back up unable to open its own database.
Move them to <app>.config as RANDOMIZED* placeholders, reaching the compose via
the #LIBREPORTAL|<APP>_<KEY>_TAG| mechanism tags_processor_app_config_values
already provides. No new handler: the tag name is derived from the config key, so
this is a config line plus a tag per secret. Generation is unchanged — still
random on first install; the value is now remembered instead of re-rolled.
Also fixes two things this exposed:
- The RANDOMIZED* replacers matched unanchored. `sort -u` orders slots lexically
(1, 10, 11, 2), so slot 1's pattern rewrote the prefix inside slot 10's
placeholder and slots 10+ ended up holding slot 1's secret with a digit glued
on — derivable, and invisible because the values weren't byte-identical.
Anchoring with \b makes match order irrelevant. Verified at 20 slots across
all four placeholder types: 64 keys, 64 distinct values, no prefix collisions.
- generateRandomPassword drew from base64 without constraining the mix; measured
over 2000 draws, 1 in 40 contained no digit at all. Retry until the result has
both a digit and a letter, bounded so a pathological length can't spin.
owncloud gains a fix in passing: its compose seeded the admin account from
PASSWORD_TAG_2 while the WebUI displayed CFG_OWNCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD, which was
generated separately and never used. Both now read the same value.

Add a `#LIBREPORTAL|<APP>_VERSION_TAG|<current-tag>` sentinel to each app's
anchor (`<slug>-service`) image line, so a `CFG_<APP>_VERSION` config drives
that tag through the existing tagging system — the config becomes the source,
the compose tag is derived (like ports/IPs/domains already are). This is the
"install/pin a specific version" knob.
- Placeholder is the literal current tag (e.g. `31-fpm-alpine`), NOT a `*_DATA`
token: an unset var leaves the line untouched (inert comment, keeps the real
tag) and never trips the up_app stale-tag scanner.
- Only the anchor line is tagged (sidecars mariadb/redis/nginx stay
tracked-by-digest, not user-version-picked). ollama correctly targets
`ollama/ollama`, not the companion open-webui.
- Untagged anchors normalized to `:latest` (semantic no-op) so they're
templatable too. The manager (libreportal) is skipped — it updates via its
release channel, not a docker tag.
32 apps wired. Verified: CFG_NEXTCLOUD_VERSION=32 → `nextcloud:32` (prefix
preserved, idempotent, sidecars untouched); all compose files still valid YAML.
Inert until a version config is set, so no behaviour change on existing installs.

The hardcoded uid:gid in libreportal.backup.files labels was brittle: matched the
default PUID in the compose, but a PUID change (or new image version) would drift
silently and the next restore would chown to a stale owner. Make it impossible to
drift by letting the engine learn the uid at capture time.
backup_files.sh:
- After a successful tar capture, run `stat -c '%u:%g'` inside the container and
write the result to a <host_subdir>.lp-owner sidecar in staging. The sidecar
rides in the snapshot alongside the captured tree.
- Restore reads it back when the descriptor doesn't pin uid:gid; falls back to
0:0 with a clear notice if missing.
- The 5-field form (with explicit uid:gid) is still supported as an override; it
wins and skips the sidecar write entirely.
Update all 4 current labels to the new 3-field form
"<container>:<container_path>:<host_subdir>" (nextcloud, bookstack, gitea,
owncloud). Engine handles both formats during the transition.
Verified with stubs: 3-field capture writes the sidecar with the discovered
33:33; restore reads it back; 5-field override correctly skips the sidecar
write. backup_files.sh parses.

Three closeouts in one pass:
1. DEVELOPMENT.md — consolidated hook-conventions table covering all 8 per-app
hook types (tools / update-specifics / compose-tags / webui-refresh / the two
traefik markers / the two network-provider hooks). One place to look instead
of inferring from the codebase.
2. Nextcloud APCu wired alongside Redis: appUpdateSpecifics_nextcloud now sets
memcache.local=\OC\Memcache\APCu too (was deferred from the fpm switch). APCu
= cheap in-process cache; the fpm-alpine image ships the extension. CLI mode
may emit a harmless "no memory cache" notice on `occ` runs — Nextcloud is
graceful, the FPM worker still uses APCu fine.
3. Container-side file-capture rollout to 3 confident cases:
- bookstack: lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack with PUID=1000 → /config (1000:1000)
- gitea: gitea/gitea with USER_UID=1000 → /data (1000:1000)
- owncloud: owncloud/server (Apache/PHP) → /mnt/data (33:33, www-data)
Snapshots are now complete for these (the dir's excluded from the raw restic
pass and captured live through the container as a tar → libreportal-owned
staging, same proven pattern as Nextcloud). Less-evidenced candidates left
for live verification: linkding, mastodon, jellyfin, trilium, focalboard,
invidious, vaultwarden, headscale-service — each needs its in-container uid
confirmed before labeling (wrong uid won't break backup, but restore would
chown to the wrong owner).

- Add libreportal.backup.db labels to the MariaDB/Postgres apps (nextcloud,
owncloud, bookstack, mastodon, invidious) so they back up live + consistent.
- If a declared dump cannot be taken (DB down, wrong path), the backup falls
back to stop-snapshot-start for that run instead of snapshotting torn data —
a misconfiguration degrades to 'safe with downtime', never to 'unsafe'.

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).
