A low uptime figure, a refused login and a certificate that stopped
renewing all looked the same from the row: a number, with the reason
split across NPM, an Authelia config and the directory.
The why-check goes and looks — TCP to the forward target, HTTP through
the proxy, a second handshake with verification off to tell a broken
certificate from a broken service. Forward hosts are docker names that
only resolve on NPM's network, so an unresolvable one is redirected to
the container address and the substitution is reported; a check that
could not be made must never read as a check that failed.
The access simulator walks the rules the way Authelia does and shows the
ones it stepped over, reading whichever instance the chosen host points
at rather than the one conf names — there are two here.
Cert triage counts runs rather than log lines and orders by rotation
suffix rather than mtime, both of which change the answer.
NPM knows what a certificate is today and nothing about what it was, so ten of them could fail
renewal for months — 1001 certbot runs, zero successes — without anything on any page saying so.
Counts start at zero and are only ever observed; only first_seen is seeded, from NPM's own date.
Unraid already enforces CSRF on every POST via auto_prepend, but its
injector is jQuery-only — the plugin's native fetch() calls carried no
token and were being terminated before the endpoint ran, silently,
because csrf_terminate exits with an empty body that r.json() swallows.
Writing down what each endpoint actually guarantees made the places it
didn't obvious — shell arguments reaching a crontab or a bash -c
unescaped, master.conf written without tmp+rename, and conf edits that
could be saved without ever being parsed.
- Replace python3/PyYAML Authelia ACL parser with pure PHP (no deps available on Unraid)
- Cert tab now pulls live from NPM API instead of cert_monitor.sh — auto-discovers all managed certs sorted by urgency
- Watchdog page: add missing GB constant and _fmtBytes/_relTime functions that were causing silent render failure
- Rsync settings card: pin to far-right 3 columns (grid-column:6/-1), toggle grid narrowed to 2 columns
- Add CLAUDE.md project context file on /boot for session persistence across reboots
- claude_startup.sh: symlink CLAUDE.md into /root on array start
- Auth stack: fold cert monitor into Auth Stack page as fourth tab (Certs);
remove standalone cert page and top-level tab
- cert_monitor.sh: write JSON status cache to State_Files/cert_status.json
after each run; expose per-domain days/expiry via _CERT_DAYS/_CERT_EXPIRY globals
- api/cert.php: new — serves cached cert status; falls back to configured
domains as UNKN when no cache exists; POST action=run triggers live check
- arrs db fallbacks: vv_arr_cleanup_stats/discovery_stats/recovery_stats now
read from data/*.db files when log JSON files don't yet exist
- config.php vv_conf_vars(): unescape bash \$ → $ so passwords with dollar
signs read correctly from conf files
- host1.conf: fill in HOST1_NPM_USER/PASS and HOST1_LLDAP_USER/PASS
- Partnership adapter pattern: Unraid-specific container logic extracted to
Plugin/unraid/Partnership/; platform-agnostic structure stays in Partnership/
- First-run wizard: uniform multi-step flow for all hosts; HOST2 pull moved
to checklist; auto SSH keygen and API key creation on save
- api/checklist.php: live setup checklist with pull_master action
- Fullscreen toggle: hide Unraid header/menu; state persists via localStorage
