An app's deployed config is written once, on first install, and never
touched again — dockerConfigSetupToContainer copies only when the file is
absent, precisely so an update can never overwrite values someone has
edited. Right default, unchosen consequence: an app that gains a CFG_
option in a new release has it on every fresh install and on no existing
one.
The failure is silent, which is the worst part. Nothing errors. The key
reads as empty and whatever depends on it quietly does something else.
Two halves, because there were two gaps. Per-app, when a config is set up,
options present in the template and missing from the deployed file are
appended with their comment blocks — the comment is the only explanation
of a new option that exists, and a bare key at the end of a documented file
is not actionable. And a sweep across every installed app after an update,
because an update redeploys LibrePortal itself and nothing else, so without
it a new option would reach an app only when someone next reinstalled it —
which, for an app that is working, may be never.
Existing values are never touched, and keys the deployed file has but the
template no longer does are left alone: a removed option is usually a
rename, and deleting someone's value is not recoverable. Deliberately not a
regenerate-from-template, which would place new keys in their proper
section and refresh the docs, but would put a whole-file rewrite of every
app config in the path of every app action — appending cannot lose a line.
Backfilled RANDOMIZED* defaults are generated in both paths. A placeholder
left in place would otherwise be a credential identical on every install
that took the upgrade.
The sweep is driven from the template directory, not the container one:
under rootless the container tree is drwxr-x--x and owned by the docker
user, so the manager can traverse it but not list it, and a glob there
expands to nothing — the sweep would report success having examined no apps.
Run against this install it found real drift beyond the test fixtures:
mattermost was missing CFG_MATTERMOST_ADMIN_PASSWORD, whose own comment
notes that without it the password-reset tool has nothing to write to, and
speedtest was missing its password key entirely.

Tree-wide audit (working tree + deployed install + every local/remote ref
+ every reachable commit + unreachable objects via git fsck) found zero
external callers. Existed dead since v0.1.0 — never wired in.
The function set DOMAINSUBNAME, TIMEZONE, DOCKER_NETWORK (all duplicates
of fills that happen elsewhere) plus the two unique-to-it CONFIGS_DIR_TAG
+ CONTAINERS_DIR_TAG. Those two are already wired directly into the
standard tag-fill block in dockerConfigSetupFileWithData (commit 521f08b),
so dropping the source file leaves no behavioural gap.
Also tighten the comment that explained why we inlined the two tags —
don't reference the function we're deleting in the same change. Describe
the current behaviour, not the history (per repo convention).
Regenerated the auto arrays + function_manifest.sh: the 3 stale entries
referencing this function drop out cleanly. files_cli.sh / files_config.sh
/ files_source.sh also rebuilt — no net content change beyond dropping
this one path.

If it's gluetun code, it lives with gluetun. Both functions in
scripts/config/tags/processors/tags_processor_network_mode.sh manipulate gluetun
markers / gluetun's compose, so move them into containers/gluetun/scripts/
gluetun_network.sh and rename to the per-app-hook convention:
tagsProcessorNetworkMode -> appNetworkApplyMode_gluetun
tagsProcessorGluetunForwardedPorts -> appNetworkRegisterPorts_gluetun
Central call sites are now provider-agnostic — no "gluetun" literal anywhere:
- docker_config_setup_data.sh: an app routing via CFG_<APP>_NETWORK=<provider>
triggers `appNetworkApplyMode_<provider>` + `appNetworkRegisterPorts_<provider>`
via declare -F, so any future gateway provider plugs in with no engine edits.
- uninstall_app.sh: loops every `appNetworkRegisterPorts_*` hook (each self-skips
when its provider isn't installed), so removing a routed app refreshes the
right provider with no provider name in central code.
Delete tags_processor_network_mode.sh; regenerate arrays. Verified with stubs:
default mode no-ops, gluetun-routed app fires both hooks, gluetun itself is
skipped, unknown provider is silently no-op, uninstall loop calls registerPorts.
Drive-by cleanup: 9 stale "${X_scripts[@]}" array references in app_files.sh /
cli_files.sh (gluetun + headscale from this session's moves, plus 7 pre-existing:
command/ssl/swapfile/ufw/ufwd/user — all from older refactors that left them
behind). Each expanded to nothing at runtime (harmless), but they're dead
misleading refs. Cleaned both files; every remaining array ref now points to a
real files_*.sh.
