Two cleanups in one pass for the v1.14.0 'works on any platform' theme:
1. Response helpers — merged src/utils/responses.js and the root-level
response-helpers.js into a single module at src/utils/responses.js.
The old module had a richer set (created, noContent, validationError,
unauthorized, forbidden, notFound, conflict) and is now re-exported
from the new location. Updated 15 routes to import from
src/utils/responses and deleted the root response-helpers.js.
2. Error logger — error-handler.js now uses the unified
src/utils/logging.js#logError (same one src/app.js uses), so all errors
go to one log file with one rotation policy. Removed the dead
asyncHandler export (the real one is in src/utils/async-handler.js
and is used everywhere). Deleted the legacy error-logger.js.
Both are invisible to users — same HTTP response shapes, same log file
path, same error format. Internal-only refactor.
Cross-platform hardening — removes all hardcoded /app/ paths from route files
and routes them through platform-paths.js so the app works the same way
regardless of Docker layout (single-file mount vs consolidated data dir).
Changes:
- platform-paths.js: add generatedCertsDir, pkiDir, containerUpdatesDir,
containerFrontendDir, containerAssetsDir, resolveAssetsPath()
- self-updater.js: UPDATE_URL/MIRROR_URL/CHANNEL env var overrides
- routes/ca.js: use platformPaths for cert paths and generated certs dir
- routes/services.js: use platformPaths.pkiRootCert
- routes/themes.js: derive THEMES_DIR from platformPaths.servicesFile
- routes/config/assets.js + backup.js: use resolveAssetsPath() fallback
- routes/services.js + src/app.js: use platformPaths.pkiRootCert
- server.js: HOST env var support, parse PORT as int
- src/app.js: GET /api/v1/version (public, no auth), global request timeout,
disable x-powered-by, trust proxy
- pylon/dashcaddy-pylon.js: PYLON_HOST env var, graceful shutdown on SIGTERM/SIGINT
A fresh user can now deploy with a custom Docker layout (e.g. /opt/dc/data/
as a single volume mount) and the app finds its files automatically, no env
var configuration required.
- Add /api/v1/monitoring/stats and /api/v1/health-checks/status to PUBLIC_ROUTES
so the frontend widget can fetch without auth
- Transform monitoring stats response from nested {cpu:{percent}} to flat
{cpu: number, memory: number, memoryUsage: number} for the widget
- Add summary {healthy, unhealthy, total} to health-checks/status response
- deploy.js: wrap logError/notification in try/catch so they never mask the original deploy error
- deploy.js: use optional chaining for error.message access
- logging.js: safeErrorMessage handles null/undefined error gracefully
- dns-providers/: adapter base class + registry with auto-discovery
- technitium.js: wraps existing Technitium API calls into adapter interface
- cloudflare.js: Cloudflare API v4 adapter (zones, records, credentials)
- rfc2136.js: RFC 2136 dynamic DNS via nsupdate (BIND, PowerDNS, etc.)
- manual.js: no-op adapter for external DNS management with instructions
- provider-dns.js: provider-aware DNS context, resolves active adapter from config
- Universal helper methods: universalCreateRecord/Delete/ResolveRecord
- All 7 route files updated to use universal methods instead of raw dns.call()
- Setup wizard: provider dropdown (Technitium, Cloudflare, RFC 2136, Manual)
- DNS template selector: added Cloudflare and External/Manual options
- Config schema: validates dns.provider field
- Capability gating on Technitium-specific endpoints (logs, restart, update)
- Backward compatible: no provider set = auto-detect (technitium if dns.ip exists)
Service categories (described in README roadmap, never wired):
- Backend: POST /services now persists category/containerId/port/ip/tailscaleOnly
- Backend: POST /services/update accepts category for in-place changes
- Frontend: category <select> in add-service modal (local + external)
- Frontend: category <select> in edit-service modal with current value
- Frontend: All Categories dropdown in service filter bar (auto-populated
from both API categories and any categories present on rendered cards)
- Frontend: colored category badge (icon + name) on service cards
- Frontend: filter auto-refreshes after buildGrid
Monitoring on main dashboard (replaces orphaned monitoring-dashboard.html):
- New monitoring-widgets.js embeds a 5-card System Overview panel above
the filter bar: Services, Containers Up, Avg CPU, Avg Memory, Health
- Pulls /api/v1/monitoring/stats + /api/v1/health-checks/status
- Auto-refreshes on DC.POLL.STATS (5s), color-coded bars (warn >=65%, bad >=85%)
Build:
- Added monitoring-widgets.js to init.js bundle in build.js
- Rebuilt dist/ bundles (core.js, features.js, init.js)
- sw.js cache version bumped automatically
- CSP hash regenerated
- openClawRoutes was mounted at root causing /status vs /openclaw/status mismatch
- ctx.docker is a typed wrapper {client,pull,...} — all calls now use docker.client.*
- templates/deploy/removal/restore sub-routers had /apps/ hardcoded in inner routes
causing double-stacking when mounted under /apps (→ /apps/apps/templates etc)
- openclaw.js: GET /status, POST /deploy, GET/POST /proxy/*, DELETE /
1. WebSocket exec auth bypass (exec.js): Require valid JWT or API key
before accepting WebSocket upgrade. Reject unauthenticated requests
with 401 before the upgrade completes.
2. Shell injection in router auto-login (session-handlers.js): Validate
baseUrl against safe hostname pattern before embedding in wget shell
command. Reject with null session if invalid.
3. Path traversal in credentials routes (services.js): Add explicit
serviceId validation (alphanumeric + dash/underscore/dot, max 100
chars) to all three credential endpoints. Removed redundant
try/catch wrapper.
4. execSync injection in CA CSR generation (ca.js): Add sanitize step
replacing any non-alphanumeric domain chars with underscore before
interpolation into shell subj argument. Redundant with existing
validation but provides defense-in-depth.
5. Auth bypass when TOTP disabled (middleware.js): Split the logic
cleanly — disabled TOTP means no auth (initial setup state), enabled
TOTP means all auth methods checked (session/JWT/API key). Removed
the sessionDuration:never conflating shortcut.
- Set Domain=.sami on session + CSRF cookies so browsers send them to all subdomains
- This fixes Caddy forward_auth returning 401 for radarr/sonarr/prowlarr
- Fix login URL concatenation bug (radarr.samilogin -> radarr.sami/login)
- Fix getSetCookie() missing from _httpsFetch/_httpFetch response objects
- Fix array/string handling for set-cookie header in session-handlers fallback
- Refactor csrf-protection to createCSRFMiddleware() factory with cookieDomain support
- Pass renewCSRFToken through middleware deps chain to TOTP route
The /api/v1/services/status endpoint (dashboard card ON/OFF) uses an
HTTPS agent to probe each service. When /app/pki/root.crt is missing
inside the container, it fell back to new https.Agent() which rejects
self-signed certificates. This caused all .sami domain probes to fail
with UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY, making dashboard cards randomly
flip between ON and OFF depending on whether the Pylon relay responded
before the 10s deadline.
Fix: use rejectUnauthorized: false as fallback when CA cert is absent.
- Remove legacy /api/ mount; all routes now under /api/v1/ only
- Update path matchers (CSRF excludes, public routes, audit log, rate limits)
- Move standalone routes (/api/network/ips, /api/docs, /api/docs/spec) to v1
- Update openapi.yaml (110 paths), CA pages, and 4 lingering frontend files
- Add LICENSE (proprietary EULA), CHANGELOG.md (Keep a Changelog format)
- Add .gitea/workflows/ci.yml (test+lint and security audit jobs)
- Fix 9 pre-existing no-empty lint errors so CI starts green
- Drop ad-hoc scratch reports and *.bak files from repo root
All 739 jest tests pass. Lint is clean.

- self-updater: per-instance notify secret (auto-generated), notifyAndApply()
triggers an immediate check+apply for the publishing host
- routes: POST /api/system/update-notify (X-DashCaddy-Notify-Secret gated,
added to public-routes allowlist so TOTP doesn't block machine-to-machine)
- dashcaddy-update.sh: include VERSION in backup/deploy/rollback copy lists;
belt-and-suspenders write trigger.json commit to VERSION post-deploy.
Fixes drift where /app/VERSION stayed at the old commit after self-update.
- release.sh: mirror failures are non-fatal+loud; HTTP-verify get2 after
rsync; auto-notify co-located instance via /opt/dashcaddy/updates/notify-secret
(or honour DASHCADDY_NOTIFY_TARGETS for multi-instance setups).
Dockerfile never received DASHCADDY_COMMIT at build, so /app/VERSION held
'unknown'. _isNewer then treated same-version-different-commit as newer,
making the auto-updater rebuild the container indefinitely (each rebuild
still produced commit='unknown').
- self-updater._isNewer: normalize commits; treat unknown/null/empty as no
commit info and fall back to pure version comparison
- self-updater._autoCheckAndApply + routes/updates: refuse to apply when
local version >= remote version (belt-and-suspenders)
- update-management.js: hide '(unknown)' from version label
- Dockerfile: COPY VERSION instead of writing from build arg
- VERSION: committed placeholder ('dev'); scripts/release.sh now writes
the real short SHA into the tarball's VERSION before tar-ing, so every
published release ships with an accurate commit

Cloud backups (Dropbox / WebDAV / SFTP):
- backup-manager.js: save + load handlers per provider, credential
resolution via credentialManager, destination probe.
- routes/backups.js: /credentials/{provider} (masked GET, POST, DELETE),
/test-destination, scheduling endpoints.
- status/js/backup-restore.js: destination picker, provider-specific
credential forms, test button wired to backend probe.
- npm deps already present (dropbox 10.34.0, webdav 5.7.1,
ssh2-sftp-client 11.0.0).
Resource history:
- resource-monitor.js: three-tier rollup storage — raw 10s samples
(7-day retention), hourly rollups (30-day), daily rollups
(365-day). getHistoryByRange() auto-selects the appropriate tier.
- routes/monitoring.js: /monitoring/history/:containerId now supports
startTime/endTime range mode (legacy ?hours=N still works).
- status/js/resource-monitor.js + dashboard.css: "History" tab with
range buttons (1h/24h/7d/30d/1y), SVG sparklines for
CPU / memory / network. Renderer handles raw and rolled-up shapes.
status/dist/features.js rebuilt from source via build.js.
Lifted out of wip/cloud-backups-and-history; the half-finished
app-deps feature from that branch (frontend calls /api/v1/apps/
check-dependencies but the endpoint doesn't exist) is preserved
separately on wip/app-deps for later.

- health.js: replace magic number 5000 with TIMEOUTS.HTTP_DEFAULT (twice)
- services.js: replace magic number 5000 with TIMEOUTS.HTTP_DEFAULT
Both files already import TIMEOUTS from constants but weren't using it.
- monitoring.js: Added log dependency, replaced console.log with log.warn
- themes.js: Added log dependency, replaced console.error with log.error
- src/app.js: Pass log to monitoringRoutes and themesRoutes
This fixes error messages being lost to stdout instead of proper log files.
- Container exec/shell via WebSocket + xterm.js (subtle >_ button on cards)
- Live dashboard updates via SSE (resource alerts, health changes, update notices)
- Docker Compose import with YAML parsing, preview, and dependency-ordered deploy
- Volume & network management modal with disk usage overview
- CPU/memory resource limits on deploy and live update
- Email SMTP notifications (nodemailer) alongside Discord/Telegram/ntfy
- Scheduled auto-update scheduler with maintenance windows (daily/weekly/monthly)
New deps: ws, js-yaml, nodemailer

- Remove redundant ctx shim that conflicted with function parameter
- Use destructured notification/safeErrorMessage directly
- Add pylon, customLogoDark, customLogoLight to known config keys
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The modular refactor changed function signatures to destructured deps but
left internal ctx.* references intact, causing "ctx is not defined" errors
on /api/config, /api/logo, and many other endpoints. Also implements
loadTotpConfig and saveTotpConfig which were left as stubs.
