NEW powerdns.js adapter: PowerDNS Authoritative HTTP API (X-API-Key).
Full parity (zones + native RRset enumeration — no AXFR needed):
listZones/listRecords, additive create that merges with existing rrset
contents and FAILS CLOSED when the rrset cannot be read (blind REPLACE
would erase values), content-level delete with positive value-presence
proof (absent rrset/value → not-found with ZERO writes; empty/null value
rejected; only genuine whole-rrset intent issues DELETE), TTL preserved
in REPLACE payloads and on additive creates, cross-zone qualification via
the server-resolved zone id/name, case-insensitive rrset matching,
dig-based resolve against the DNS listener (distinct from the API port),
error guidance naming the exact pdns.conf prerequisite.
WIZARD SERIALISATION EXTRACTED to shared js/dns-provider-config.js
(browser global + module.exports): per-provider port defaults
(PowerDNS 8081, RFC2136 53, legacy Technitium 5380), strict port
validation (full-string digits, 1-65535), provider-specific aliases
(server/apiPort/dnsPort/apiToken). The backend tests now execute the
EXACT shipped wizard code, joined through the real createProviderDnsContext
factory to adapter authentication (X-API-Key asserted). provider-dns.js
dual-accepts generic wizard keys and provider-specific fields and
normalises ports to integers (fixes the same latent gap for rfc2136).
Also fixed: rfc2136 parity-matrix rows now exact-sorted-equality across
all five adapters; wizard confirmation summary uses the provider default.
Judge: 7 rounds — r1 C (silent-erase on failed read, cross-zone bug,
missing resolve tests) → r2 C (deleteRecord positive-proof semantics) →
r3 C (TTL in REPLACE, count honesty) → r4 C (empty-value fall-through)
→ r5 C (wizard ip/port/token vs builder field mismatch) → r6 C (5380
default defeating provider ports, untested serialisation) → r7 B zero
blockers (urn:ump:ez33fpgyydl3nyjnwaaplisz7slunupcf5dnr42pdblwx7chfcma).
Post-grade polish applied: strict port validation + range, summary uses
provider defaults, joined serialisation→factory→adapter test, invalid
port table tests.
Suite: backend 176 suites / 3791 tests, frontend 68/68.
RFC2136/BIND9 adapter gains listRecords via AXFR zone transfer (dig with
the same TSIG identity as nsupdate; temp 0600 keyfile, always cleaned up;
transfer-denial errors carry the exact allow-transfer fix). TSIG fields
validated (name charset, HMAC algorithm whitelist, base64 secret) before
keyfile interpolation.
Capability honesty at every surface: GET /dns/records 501s name the active
provider + its supported capabilities + zone-transfer pointer; MCP
dashcaddy_list_dns attaches actionable guidance for AI clients; setup
wizard shows per-provider capability hints at choice time (parity-pinned
by tests against the adapters).
Also fixed a latent rfc2136 bug: this._log instance property shadowed the
prototype logging method — every nsupdate call threw since the DC-170-era
refactor. CHANGELOG stale 'protocol-impossible' DC-171 entry superseded.
Judge: grade B, zero blockers (urn:ump:wokpmecjfauc7jvnxyyyu4fq3zkkvwge455a5mxlmi3pdzkfdw3a).
Polish applied post-grade: stale changelog entry corrected, TSIG field
validation + 4 extra failure-path tests (exact dig argv, ENOENT install
hint, non-denial failure passthrough, hostile-field rejection),
dns-records 501 test strengthened to pin provider name + capabilities.
Suite: backend 174 suites / 3754 tests, frontend 68/68.
The meta CSP (no unsafe-inline/unsafe-hashes) blocks ALL inline event
handlers; 19 controls were silently dead in every modern browser.
Revived:
- Disk Safety: toolbar button, injected modal Close/Save/Clean Up, and
the 5 settings sliders (oninput -> input listeners; value labels
never updated)
- AI chat FAB click; hover scale moved to a #ai-chat-fab:hover rule
- TOTP/login logo broken-image fallbacks: capture-phase error
delegation + WeakSet + complete/naturalWidth race guard in
totp-auth.js; updateTotpLogo never resurrects a broken logo
(6 onerror attrs stripped from index.html + auth-gate.js templates)
- favicon-preview data-URI fallback (same race guard)
- app-selector folder-chip remove buttons (data-remove-folder)
- premium upsells in backup-restore + workflows (data-upgrade-msg) —
their old onclick also called scrollToSection('license'), a function
that has never existed anywhere in the codebase; now opens the real
license UI via window.openLicenseModal (license.js)
- health-check Edit/Delete dispatch the same CustomEvents via
data-health-action/data-service-id
- smart-arr Test button via data-smart-test
Verified: zero inline handler attributes remain across index.html +
hand-written js (grep); node --check clean x12; status suite 68/68;
dist rebuilt (SW dashcaddy-shell-36d9aa3364, CSP hash unchanged).
r1 grade C (missed sliders + logo onerror) -> r2 grade A:

Audit 2026-10-27 fixes (46-finding sweep, AUDIT-2026-10-27.md):
- P0-2: all 6 calendar API calls via secureFetch — raw fetch sent no
X-CSRF-Token so every mutation (save/toggle/delete/test) was rejected
403 [DC-100]; GETs gain the standard 15s timeout
- P0-6: refresh() catch called nonexistent errorHandler.log() — the
error path itself threw; now logError(context, error)
- P0-7: modal sizing off inline min-width:560px onto .cal-modal-content
with 768px override (inline style beat the mobile media query)
- refresh coalescing via _pendingForce (forced refreshes were dropped
mid-flight); single fetch sequence on modal open; toggle/delete get
resp.ok + try/catch + toast + disabled-during-flight
- modal on class-based .show: click-outside, Escape, focus move/return
on all three dismissal paths (judge polish applied)
- chip honors Enter/Space (role=button); poll skips hidden tabs
- --cal-chip-when/--cal-when/--cal-dot re-scoped to :root (were scoped
to elements that are never ancestors of .cal-dot — DC-168 WCAG dot
colors never rendered)
- calendar-cache eventKey no longer throws RangeError on invalid start
Bundles rebuilt (sw dashcaddy-shell-7fc13e7762). status suite 68/68.
Judge B (polish items applied pre-commit): urn:ump:dbxmyhvr7cpkeu3mbfdevrco7utsok743udjsj7atih6qk4frdiq
The floating assistant was broken end-to-end; Sami said "Do it that works".
Three user-visible bugs fixed + the promised LLM delegation implemented:
FRONTEND (status/js/ai-chat.js — rewritten):
- Response parsing: old code read data.data; the API returns the FLAT ok()
envelope — EVERY reply rendered "Sorry, something went wrong". Now reads
the real shape (contract asserted by route test).
- Suggestion chips: onclick="...send('"Deploy Plex"')" — nested quotes,
invalid JS, dead buttons (shipped like this). Now data-driven buttons with
addEventListener.
- Deploy button: called window.openAppSelector which NEVER existed anywhere
in the tree (grep-verified). Now opens the REAL deploy modal via new
window.openDeployConfigFor(templateId) exported by app-selector.js —
resolves against the live API template cache, reuses showDeployConfig
(same path a manual catalog click takes). Widgets route to the grid.
- Conversation history (last 6 turns) now rides along per request, engine
badge in header, ⚙ settings sub-panel (baseUrl/model/API key + Test +
Remove), all server text via textContent (no HTML injection), CSP-safe
(no inline handlers).
BACKEND (routes/ai-intent.js):
- TWO engines, one contract. LLM classifier (OpenAI-compatible chat
completions) with system prompt embedding the LIVE 78-app catalog + the
six wizard categories; regex patterns kept as the zero-config default and
the automatic failover (HTTP error, timeout via AbortController,
unparseable output -> pattern answers; response carries engine +
llmError so the UI can say which served — no silent degradation).
- Closed-vocabulary schema validation: intent MUST be in the known set else
'unknown'; appId MUST exist in APP_TEMPLATES else nulled (hallucinated
ids cannot leak into deploy plans); categories filtered to the wizard's
real keys; reply stripped of control chars + bounded to 600; history
role-filtered (only user/assistant pass — client-injected system turns
dropped) + capped; input capped to 1000 chars.
- enrich() rebuilds the response contract per intent; pattern-canned
response is dropped when the LLM rerouted the intent (no stale shape);
deployPlan body.port now fills from the template's defaultPort (was
hardcoded null); deployPlan shape asserted against wizard usage.
- Key storage: PUT /ai/settings stores {baseUrl,model,apiKey} in the
ENCRYPTED credential store (key 'ai:llm') via ctx.credentialManager —
NOT config.json (GET /config echoes the raw file to the browser; that
route's shape was verified before this decision). Blank apiKey on PUT
keeps the stored one. GET /ai/settings reports configured/source/model/
hasApiKey — the key value NEVER crosses the wire (asserted). Env
fallback AI_LLM_BASE_URL/AI_LLM_API_KEY/AI_LLM_MODEL + legacy
LLM_PROXY_URL for headless installs. POST /ai/settings/test = one-shot
real classify probe returning ok/sample or ok:false/reason (never
throws). DELETE clears.
- GET /ai/capabilities now reports engine + llm status (pattern was honest
marketing before; now it can be true).
MOUNT (src/app.js): aiIntentRoutes receives siteConfig, log, fetchImpl
(ctx.fetchT — test-injectable) and credentialManager.
Docs: OpenAPI +4 AI path entries (intent, capabilities, settings, settings/test); CHANGELOG entry; dist bundle rebuilt
(openDeployConfigFor present in features.js; SW cache c62511c40d).
Tests: 20 NEW in __tests__/routes/ai-intent-engine.test.js (engine
selection w/ and w/o store, off-catalog phrasing via mock LLM,
hallucinated-id nulling, illegal intent coercion, HTTP-500 failover,
AbortError timeout failover, markdown-fence repair, reply sanitization,
history cap+role filter, env config path, intent-disagreement rebuild w/
real jellyfin port 8096, flat envelope contract, 400s, 1000-char cap,
settings GET/PUT/DELETE/test incl. key-never-echoed assertions,
capabilities engine reporting) + the 18 original pattern tests unchanged +
composition-root e2e 8 pass. Full suite: 3643 passed; only the pre-existing
pdf-parse billing family red (6 failed in documented band [5,7], patch
touches no billing file).
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.
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
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.

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.
