The previous commit enabled everything that passed the two mechanical
checks. Passing them is necessary, not sufficient: several of those apps
are singletons by role, and an instance of them would validate, clone,
start, and then not make sense.
Eight are now off by design, each saying why:
adguard a resolver is what clients point at
authelia the forward-auth provider every Traefik router points at
gluetun a network provider — apps join it by container name
headscale the control server a tailnet is defined by
libreportal_catalog LibrePortal's own catalog, internal plumbing
ollama one endpoint, and gigabytes of models per copy
trivy the updater resolves the scanner by a FIXED container
name, trivy-service, so a second copy would run and
never be the one CVE scanning uses
wireguard one stable published UDP endpoint; peers are tied to it
And one that should never have been touched: crowdsec ships no
docker-compose.yml, so the audit — which required a compose to read
service names from — skipped it, while the enabling pass only required a
config and did not. It got an unaudited true. There is nothing for
`instance create` to clone, and one decision engine watching the whole
box is the point of it. Now false, with that stated.
23 apps instanceable, 15 not: 6 that cannot be, 9 that should not be.

Three apps were instanceable and the rest were silent, so the feature
looked far narrower than it is. Every app has now been checked against
the two rules instance_create.sh enforces, and the answer recorded in
its config rather than left unset.
32 apps are instance-safe and now say so. Six are not, and each says why
in its own words instead of being indistinguishable from an app nobody
had reviewed:
pihole a DNS server must own port 53
unbound a resolver must own its fixed 5335
stalwart a mail server must own 25/465/587/993
traefik must own 443, and one Traefik routes every other app
prometheus node-exporter and cadvisor carry no "prometheus" prefix
stoat pins 7881, and database/redis/rabbit/minio carry no prefix
The first four are genuinely one-per-host: the port is not arbitrary, it
is the protocol. The last two are compose-identity problems and could be
fixed by prefixing those service names, which is a change to make
deliberately rather than in passing.
Recorded as an explicit false with a reason, not left unset, so the next
person reads a decision instead of an absence. The audit was verified not
to pass anything vacuously: every app resolves at least one service name,
so no app reached "eligible" merely because nothing was found to check.

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.

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.

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.

Finishes the installApp refactor started in d941f59 (Wave A). Every app
whose <app>.sh was either pure boilerplate (Wave B) or boilerplate +
small custom logic (Wave C) now routes through the generic driver in
scripts/app/install/app_install.sh; bespoke logic moved to declarative
hooks in containers/<app>/scripts/<app>_install_hooks.sh.
Net: ~4,000 lines of duplicated 10-step sequence gone. From 31 per-app
.sh files (pre-Wave-A) down to 2 intentional keepers.
DELETED outright (pure boilerplate — driver replaces them identically):
jellyfin, mastodon, focalboard, ipinfo, speedtest, dashy, invidious,
nextcloud, ollama, vaultwarden, pihole
DELETED + hook-extracted (small bespoke step preserved in a hook):
bookstack, moneyapp, owncloud, trilium, searxng, gitea, headscale,
unbound, prometheus, grafana, gluetun, wireguard, jitsimeet, authelia,
traefik, adguard, onlyoffice
KEPT (intentional special cases):
crowdsec — host-app pattern (no docker compose, runs as apt+
systemd via installCrowdsecHost; uninstall/stop/
restart hooks already live in this file and are
invoked by dockerUninstall/Stop/RestartApp directly).
libreportal — WebUI bootstrap. Pre-compose image build + post-install
webuiLibrePortalUpdate + bootstrap-time suppression of
menuShowFinalMessages don't fit the generic flow.
Driver change — scripts/app/install/app_install.sh:
Moved monitoringToggleAppConfig "$app_name" "docker-compose.yml" from
the post-start integrations block into the install body at post-compose
(right after dockerComposeSetupFile, before docker-compose up). The
toggle edits the compose file on disk — running it after start meant
the container had already been brought up with the unmodified compose,
so the metrics endpoint wouldn't reflect CFG_<APP>_MONITORING until
the next restart. Matches the original ordering in every per-app .sh
that used to call it inline.
Hook surface (declare-f-gated, silent no-op when absent):
<slug>_install_pre before any install work
<slug>_install_post_setup after dockerConfigSetupToContainer
<slug>_install_post_compose after dockerComposeSetupFile (+ the
shared monitoring toggle on the compose)
<slug>_install_post_start after dockerComposeUpdateAndStartApp
<slug>_install_message_data echoes extra argv for menuShowFinalMessages
<slug>_install_post very last thing, after the final message
+ the existing _uninstall_pre/_post, _stop_post, _restart_post
Notable extractions:
bookstack — _install_post_start: probe :PORT_1/login until 200/302,
then `bookstack:create-admin` inside the container with
CFG_BOOKSTACK_ADMIN_{EMAIL,PASSWORD}; falls back to the
seeded admin@admin.com on timeout.
adguard — _install_post_start drives the wizard's HTTP API
(POST /control/install/configure) so the admin doesn't
click through five pages, then pins the admin bind back
to 0.0.0.0:3000 (matches the compose mapping) and health
checks. _install_message_data echoes user/password to
menuShowFinalMessages.
authelia — _install_pre requirements; _install_post_compose copies
configuration.yml + users_database.yml, substitutes
theme/domain/host, generates JWT/session/storage secrets,
toggles monitoring on configuration.yml; _install_post_start
argon2-hashes the admin password via the container, writes
users_database.yml, restarts; _install_post echoes creds.
traefik — _install_pre prompts for the LE email if CFG_TRAEFIK_EMAIL
is unset; _install_post_compose copies static + dynamic
configs, wires CFG_TRAEFIK_DASHBOARD_ACCESS (local-only /
domain-only / public), toggles monitoring on traefik.yml,
then traefikUpdateWhitelist + traefikSetupLoginCredentials.
wireguard — _install_pre host-conflict guard (/etc/wireguard/params);
_install_post_compose persists CFG_WIREGUARD_SUBNET,
resolves WG_HOST (domain+traefik → host_setup, else IP),
runs runAppCfg wireguard-ip-forward; _install_post_start
restarts after wg-easy installs its iptables rules.
jitsimeet — _install_post_setup downloads the tagged release zip from
GitHub; _install_post_compose mass-edits the .env and runs
gen-passwords.sh; _install_post_start rewrites nginx
default site to usedport1/2 + restart.
prometheus — _install_post_compose seeds prometheus.yml under
$containers_dir/prometheus/prometheus/; _install_post_start
sets 0777 on storage dirs so the container TSDB can write
regardless of host UID mapping.
grafana — _install_pre requirements; _install_post_start 0777 on
grafana_storage.
gluetun — _install_post_start refreshes the provider snapshot,
reattaches every routed app (the netns container ID is
stale after gluetun gets recreated), then prompts to
onboard any existing apps.
+ the smaller bookstack-shape extractions for owncloud (version scrape),
trilium / searxng (wait-for-first-boot-config), gitea (Prometheus
bearer token sync), headscale / unbound (config copy), moneyapp
(Auth.js AUTH_URL), onlyoffice (compose-resolved user/pass into the
final message).
Manifest + arrays regenerated. Verified end-to-end:
- bash -n on every hook file + the driver: clean
- Each hook file sources cleanly in a subshell, exposes only the
intended functions, flagged lazy-loadable (not eager)
- Smoke-stubbed install run for jellyfin (pure), nextcloud (pure),
bookstack (hooked), crowdsec (kept): correct dispatch in all cases —
deleted apps route to installApp, kept apps still hit their real
function

The standalone WireGuard install used to flip net.ipv4.ip_forward by
appending+uncommenting `/etc/sysctl/99-custom.conf` via blanket sudo
(sudo tee, sudo sed, sudo sysctl -p). Two problems with that on a
de-sudoed manager:
- The path is non-standard. The conventional location is
/etc/sysctl.d/*.conf (drop-ins, loaded by sysctl --system) — the
old file may not even exist, leaving forwarding silently off.
- `sudo tee /etc` and `sudo sed -i /etc` are not in LP_SYSTEM. The
manager has lost the broad sudo it once had, so this would now
fail outright on every wireguard install.
Add a `wireguard-ip-forward` action to libreportal-appcfg that:
- writes /etc/sysctl.d/99-libreportal-wireguard.conf (a drop-in we
own and rewrite idempotently), and
- reloads via `sysctl --system` (with a `sysctl -p <dropin>` fallback).
containers/wireguard/wireguard.sh now calls `runAppCfg wireguard-ip-forward`
through the existing helper-dispatch path — the whole edit runs as root
in one validated step, no `sudo` in the per-app script.
Same de-sudo pattern as adguard-auth / crowdsec-priority / owncloud-config
already use.

dockerCheckAllowedInstall was a one-app `case` whose only active caller was the
wireguard app itself — so inline its check (abort if a host WireGuard exists at
/etc/wireguard/params, which would collide on the wg kernel module + UDP 51820)
directly into containers/wireguard/wireguard.sh and delete
scripts/docker/app/checks/allowed_install.sh.
The protection is unchanged; wireguard is now fully self-contained and the last
app name leaves central install code. Regenerated arrays. (The only remaining
dockerCheckAllowedInstall references are in scripts/unused/ — retired apps,
never sourced.)

docker_config_setup_data.sh's "App Specific" if/elif ladder (pihole, nextcloud,
searxng, speedtest, vaultwarden, wireguard, gluetun) becomes a generic hook
dispatch: an app needing computed (non-CFG) compose tags ships
containers/<app>/scripts/<app>_compose_tags.sh defining appSetupComposeTags_<app>
(live-sourced by the container scan, called with the compose path; reads
host_setup/public_ip_v4/CFG_* from scope). Same declare -F pattern as the tool /
update-specifics / webui-refresh hooks.
- 7 per-app hook files added; central ladder replaced by the dispatch.
- The generic gluetun network-mode block stays (any app may route through gluetun);
tagsProcessorGluetunForwardedPorts stays central (hook + network-mode both use it).
- Regenerate arrays (hooks live under containers/, not arrayed).
Verified with stubs: each hook emits exactly the tags the old branch did
(pihole REV_SERVER, nextcloud trusted-domains, gluetun VPN set + forwarded ports,
etc.); apps without a hook are a clean no-op.

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.
