The deploy host showed phantom dist drift on every git pull: committed
dist bundles could not be reproduced on DNS2. Root cause (verified with
esbuild 0.25.12 probes): the production transform uses sourcemap:'both',
whose inline map base64-embeds RAW source bytes as sourcesContent — a CRLF
working copy (Windows dev, core.autocrlf=true) vs an LF checkout produces
different dist bytes and a different sw.js cache tag.
- build.js: normalizeSource (\r\n -> \n) on every source read (bundle
inputs + sw.js read); exported + require.main guard so tests can import
it without triggering a build
- .gitattributes: * text=auto eol=lf (git-layer kill of the CRLF vector)
+ binary exclusions; 9 CRLF-in-index asset files renormalized
- tests/build-determinism.test.js: 3-case pin (byte-identity after
normalization, divergence pre-normalization, CR-strip contract) importing
the ACTUAL normalizeSource from build.js
- package.json: declare jsdom devDependency — 2 committed test files
require('jsdom') but it was never declared, so fresh-checkout
npm test failed (it only passed where a stray ancestor node_modules
happened to contain it)
- dist/features.js + sw.js: canonical deterministic rebuild
(cache tag 3354f5fd96 -> d39ab69dd4)
Verified: status 54/54, API 2858/2858 (128 suites); CRLF-sim tree and LF
tree of same HEAD produce byte-identical dist artifacts (sha256-equal).
Judge: glm-5.3 cold round 1 = A, round 2 (post-fold) = A clean, 0 blocking.
Three user-facing notification features were silently dead from contract
drift between the settings UI and the backend:
1. SMTP auth never applied: the UI sent email.user/email.pass while the
manager read username/password. Route now normalizes aliases; legacy
config files canonicalize at load.
2. Event toggles were cosmetic: UI sent camelCase keys (containerDown),
the send() gate read kebab-case ('container-down'). EVENT_ALIASES now
folds every known spelling (manager gate, route store, legacy files);
UI sends and reads canonical keys.
3. Deploy/auto-restart notifications always dropped: deploy-success/
deploy-failed/auto-restart were missing from DEFAULT events, and
send('test') was itself gated -> the Test button was a no-op. Defaults
added; 'test' bypasses the gate.
Also: strict boolean contract (string 'false' for secure/enabled rejected
— previously coerced truthy, silently forcing TLS), SMTP port bounds,
non-destructive credential merge (blank password no longer clobbers the
stored one), GET /config returns port/secure/to/username + hasPassword
(password never returned), full form prefill + keep-hint placeholder.
Verified live pre-fix: send('test')/'deploymentSuccess'/'auto-restart'
all returned 'not enabled'. Post-fix: +20 tests (route + manager),
full suite 2641/2641 (112 suites).
Judge: GLM-5.3 cold read via delegate_task (deleg_ad765d63), grade B,
ship, zero blockers; judge independently ran the DC-092 suites (38/38).
Polish #1 (canonical event for provider titles) folded in. Remaining
emitters with the same gate-miss class (recipeRemoved, workflow,
ssl-cert-expiry, dns-propagation, drift-detected, dependency-restart-*)
noted for a follow-up tick.
Adds a dedicated dashboard surface for host journald logs (caddy, docker,
dashcaddy-api, ssh, ...) via a read-only bind-mount of /var/log/journal +
journalctl. Closes queue item #2: the only way to see the recurring
'100.120.159.34:5000 i/o timeout' spam in Caddy's health_checker logs was
SSH into DNS2.
Backend (dashcaddy-api/):
- src/monitoring/journald-reader.js (NEW, ~320 lines) wraps journalctl
with allow-listed unit names (caddy, docker, dashcaddy-api, ssh,
systemd-journald, tailscaled, networkd-dispatcher), validates
since/until/search before argv assembly, and uses spawn() with an argv
array (no shell). Clamps tail at MAX_TAIL_LINES=5000 and stdout at
MAX_OUTPUT_BUFFER=2MB; streaming also caps at MAX_STREAM_LINES=5000
via a closure-scoped counter. Maps ENOENT cleanly to 'journalctl
unavailable'.
- routes/logs.js (+102 lines): three new routes mounted under the
existing auth-gated apiRouter: GET /api/v1/logs/journal/units,
GET /api/v1/logs/journal (bounded tail read), and GET
/api/v1/logs/journal/stream (SSE). Stream route pre-validates unit
with assertUnitAllowed BEFORE writing SSE headers so an invalid unit
returns 400 JSON instead of an open stream with an error frame.
- 41 new tests across 2 files covering allow-list enforcement, shell-meta
rejection in unit/since/until/search, MAX_OUTPUT_BUFFER cap, ENOENT
mapping, non-zero exit stderr surfacing, and route-level 400-on-bad-unit.
Full local suite 1831/1831 (+41 net).
Container plumbing (start.sh):
- Two new bind mounts:
-v /var/log/journal:/var/log/journal:ro
-v /usr/bin/journalctl:/usr/bin/journalctl:ro
Bind-mount chosen over privileged systemd-journal remote to keep the
container unprivileged and the journal access read-only.
Frontend (status/js/):
- journald.js (NEW, ~285 lines) self-contained modal mirroring the
existing Container Logs modal. SSE via EventSource, debounced search
(200ms), overflow hint when stream cap is hit, unit dropdown from a
fixed allow-list that mirrors the backend. Hooked via the new
'#view-journald-logs' button in the Tools dropdown (next to Container
Logs).
- build.js (+4 lines) adds journald.js to the features bundle. Bundle
rebuild succeeded (features.js 27 files, 466 KB raw / 1229 KB min).
CSP hash unchanged (no inline script changes).
GLM judge (round 1, 178s, 14 tool calls, cold diff + 8 file reads):
GRADE=B. Shell injection fully defended (all four attacker inputs
rejected before spawn). Route-level allow-list holds (streamEntries not
called for bad unit). SSE cleanup correct. Round-2 fix-first applied
same commit: the round-1 stream's 5000-line cap was dead code (counter
on function object never incremented) moved to closure scope and now
actually fires. Also dropped deprecated req.on('aborted') listener
(Node 18+ fires 'close' for both clean and abort).
Container live HEAD 901df86 [glm-grade=B]; deploy via start.sh atomic
swap. Live verify: status.sami=200, container Up + healthy, the new
bundle and index.html served.
Backend (dashcaddy-api/routes/errorlogs.js):
- GET /error-logs: server-side filter chain (level, context substring,
free-text search across error/context/detail/IP, ISO since/until),
real pagination via limit/offset with hasMore reporting, MAX_LIMIT=500
clamp, newest-first sort.
- New endpoint GET /error-logs/contexts returns distinct contexts with
occurrence counts for the frontend dropdown.
- Robust entry parser handles malformed blocks as raw entries so nothing
silently disappears from the operator's view.
- DELETE /error-logs requires { confirm: 'CLEAR' } body and audits the
wipe itself (mirrors DC-050 hardening).
- DC-052 fix: removed legacy /audit-logs GET/DELETE handlers that lived
here before DC-050. errorLogsRoutes is mounted in src/app.js (L733)
BEFORE auditLogRoutes (L789), so Express router.use() semantics meant
the legacy proxies shadowed DC-050's hardened versions — DELETE
without confirm=CLEAR would silently wipe the audit log, and
/audit-logs/actions was unreachable. The hardened routes/audit-log.js
is now the single source of truth.
Frontend (status/js/error-logs.js):
- Level / Context / Search / Since / Until filter row mirroring the
audit-log UI (DC-050).
- Load More pagination with abort-on-filter-change.
- Click-to-expand stack frames in <pre> with scroll-cap.
- Contexts dropdown populated from /error-logs/contexts (refreshes on
every modal open and after a clear).
- confirm=CLEAR clear with success/error notification.
Tests (__tests__/routes/errorlogs.routes.test.js — 20 cases, all pass):
- Endpoint shape, newest-first, level/context/search/since/until filters,
invalid-since + unknown-level 400s, pagination + hasMore, MAX_LIMIT
clamp, /contexts distinct list, confirm=CLEAR gating + audit emission,
missing-file empty results, malformed entry fallback, /contexts
missing-file empty, search-by-IP, huge since/until, combined filters.
Full suite: 86 suites / 1910 tests, all green.
GLM judge round 1 (372s, 50 tool calls): grade D — HIGH audit-log
shadowing + MEDIUM coverage gaps + LOW tofu glyph.
GLM judge round 2 (114s, 25 tool calls): grade A — all findings fixed,
no new regressions, ship recommendation: ship.
Full language display names + RTL set (ar/fa/ur) on /i18n/languages;
card.internet/auth/tailscale/dashca, status pills, filter bar and
batch-operation strings added to every language dictionary. Frontend:
English now loads the server dictionary too (keys are semantic ids,
not fallback copy), failed loads keep existing DOM text instead of
exposing raw keys, isLoaded() gate for pre-load renders. Rebuilt
status/dist. Tests: i18n-cards 9/9, full suite 1837/1837.
Domain=.sami cookies are silently rejected by real browsers - .sami is an
unregistered custom TLD, so browsers treat sami itself as the effective
public suffix and refuse to set a cookie scoped to it (the same rule that
stops a site from setting a supercookie for all of .com). Confirmed via
curl verbose (cookie dropped, domain must not set cookies for sami) and
via the Firefox console on the actual device (Cookie rejected for invalid
domain) for the same cookie. The session cookie set on status.sami after
TOTP verify could never reach plex.sami/jellyfin.sami/emby.sami/chat.sami
no matter how the cookie itself was built - prior fixes tonight left this
mechanism untouched, which is why the loop persisted.
Fix: /totp/verify mints a short-lived (60s) single-use opaque token. The
status.sami frontend appends it to the redirect URL when bouncing the
user back to a gated service. That services login page exchanges the
token via the new public GET /api/v1/auth/sso-exchange for a host-only
session cookie (no Domain attribute - always accepted). isSessionValid
only checks the cookies HMAC signature, never its Domain, so the host-only
cookie validates identically to the cross-domain one on every existing
check with zero changes to that logic.
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
- 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.

build.js rewrites three things during `node build.js`:
- status/dist/*.js (bundle output)
- status/index.html (CSP hash for inline bootstrap)
- status/sw.js (cache name derived from bundle content)
release.sh was only staging status/dist/. Result: when a release didn't
touch index.html or sw.js source, the post-build modifications to those
two files were left unstaged, the commit included only dist/, and the
tarball shipped the stale sw.js. Clients then kept the previous SW
cache name -> activate handler never wiped the cache -> precached old
bundles served forever even after they were "updated" on disk.
Now stage index.html and sw.js too. They're tracked (not gitignored)
so a plain `git add` is enough; the commit is a no-op when nothing
actually changed.
Three merge-fallout bugs that combined to leave the services grid empty
and most UI inert:
1. error-handler.js was bundled into onboarding.js (loaded 3rd), but
globals.js in core.js (loaded 1st) does `const errorHandler = new
ErrorHandler()` at top level. ErrorHandler was undefined when core.js
ran -> ReferenceError -> globals.js stopped, so window.APPS,
_showTotpOverlay, loadServices, etc. were never set, and init.js
blew up on every call into core's exports.
Moved error-handler.js to the start of the core.js bundle so the
class is on window before any other script touches it.
2. setup-wizard.js also declared `const errorHandler = new ErrorHandler()`
at top level. Classic scripts share the document's top-level lexical
environment, so this collided with globals.js's declaration ->
redeclaration SyntaxError in features.js. Removed setup-wizard.js's
copy; it picks up the global one.
3. tooltip-definitions.js closed its `(function(window){...})(window);`
IIFE at line ~171 ("Validation module loaded"), then the TOOLTIP_
DEFINITIONS array, getter helpers, window.TooltipDefinitions export,
and final `debug(...)` log all sat at top level — outside the IIFE,
where `debug` was no longer in scope. Removed the early close and
added one at EOF so the whole file is in one IIFE.
The service worker uses staleWhileRevalidate on /dist/*, so after a
release it would serve old bundles from cache indefinitely (cache is
only wiped when the cache *name* changes, which was hardcoded to
'dashcaddy-shell-v10'). Result: dashboard appears unchanged after a
self-update until the user manually unregisters the SW.
build.js now hashes the concatenated dist bundles and writes
`dashcaddy-shell-<10-hex-chars>` into sw.js. Any change in dist/
produces a fresh cache name; on the next page load the SW's activate
handler deletes all older caches and the new bundles are fetched.
Server-side batched /api/v1/services/status endpoint replaces N
individual browser probes with a single API call (HEAD-first with
GET fallback, concurrency-limited, CA-aware HTTPS agent).
Frontend: clock reuses DOM instead of rebuilding innerHTML every
second with drift-correcting timer that pauses on hidden tabs.
Card animations use CSS transitionDelay + requestAnimationFrame.
Internet dot blink moved from JS intervals to CSS keyframes with
prefers-reduced-motion support. Service worker rewritten with
network-first navigation, stale-while-revalidate assets, and
navigation preload. Font faces drop TTF fallbacks, use font-display
swap.
