./manage.sh games now lists installed games numbered with their AppIDs,
then prompts for a number to apply the EA App install-script fix to that
game (Enter to skip). Factored the reg-fix into a shared _apply_ea_fix
helper used by both 'games' and 'fix-ea-game'. The EA Desktop installed
marker is shared across all EA titles, so the same fix works for any EA
game — the picker just supplies the right per-game AppID.

- install-completion: writes a bash completion script to
~/.bash_completion.d/manage-wolf and registers it, so double-tab
after './manage.sh ' shows all available commands.
- fix-ea-game kept as general name (not fix-swbf2-2017): the EA Desktop
registry key is shared across all EA games; the Valve has-run key
follows the same EADesktopSetup pattern across EA's catalog.

- ./manage.sh games: lists installed Steam games with their AppIDs
(parsed from appmanifest_*.acf) so users can find the AppID to pass to
fix-ea-game instead of hunting for it.
- ./manage.sh ge-proton [version]: optional arg pins a specific
GE-Proton release for reproducibility; still defaults to latest.
- Document the full EA-games flow + AppID/version notes in the generated

Add two manage.sh commands that bake in the workarounds needed to run
EA Steam titles (e.g. Star Wars Battlefront II 2017) under Proton in a
container:
- ge-proton: downloads the latest GE-Proton into Steam's
compatibilitytools.d (the path Steam actually scans) and chowns it to
uid 1000 so the in-container user can launch it. GE-Proton carries the
EA App installer fixes stock Proton/Experimental lack.
- fix-ea-game [appid]: pre-satisfies the EA App install-script markers
in the game's Proton prefix (InstallSuccessful + Valve EADesktopSetup
has-run key) so Steam stops looping on 'running install script (EA
app)'. Opt-in per AppID, defaults to SWBF2 1237950, no-ops if the
prefix doesn't exist, idempotent, and keeps the prefix owned by uid
1000 so Wine accepts it.
Also document the EA-game flow in the post-install summary.

App containers were defaulting to a non-local timezone (e.g. BST), showing the
wrong local time in Steam — and a skewed clock can stall EA App's installer.
The kernel clock is shared with the host, so this is a display/TZ issue: fix
it by setting each app's TZ env var, sourced from SITE_TZ at install and from
WOLF_TZ in .env for ./manage.sh apps.
Also generalize the array updater to rewrite both `mounts` and `env` (Wolf
reformats either as multi-line), so re-running apps updates the TZ on
already-installed entries without corrupting the TOML.

/etc/localtime and /etc/timezone are bind-mounted read-only so the Steam
container shows the correct local time. A wrong clock causes EA App install
scripts to hang indefinitely (SSL/token validation against EA's servers fails
when the client clock is skewed).
Fix the host clock first: sudo timedatectl set-ntp true

The GoW firefox image launches `firefox` with no URL and ignores START_URL,
so add-web tiles opened a blank default tab. Instead generate a per-app
Firefox enterprise policy (policies.json) that sets the homepage to the
target URL and bind-mount it over /etc/firefox/policies/policies.json so the
site loads on launch.
Also make add-web replace an existing tile of the same name instead of
erroring, so re-running it repairs a previously broken tile in place.

Wolf rewrites config.toml on every start and reformats `mounts` as a
multi-line TOML array. update_mounts() only replaced the single line
starting with `mounts =`, leaving the remaining array elements and the
closing `]` orphaned — producing invalid TOML ("Expected '=' after a key")
that crashed Wolf on the next start. This bit any re-run of the installer
(or `./manage.sh apps`) against a config Wolf had already reformatted.
Replace the entire array (from `mounts =` to its closing `]`), and also
clean up orphaned remnants left by a previously corrupted single-line
rewrite so re-running the script repairs a broken config in place.

Prompts for a display name and URL, auto-fetches the site's apple-touch-icon
or favicon.png, falls back to a manual URL/local-PNG prompt, then injects a
[[profiles.apps]] block using ghcr.io/games-on-whales/firefox:edge with
START_URL set to the target URL. Wolf's virtual gamepad injection means
controller-aware sites (Gamepad API) work naturally through the stream.

Moonlight shows app tiles in config.toml order with no in-client reordering.
Add ./manage.sh reorder: lists the current [[profiles.apps]] blocks by title,
prompts for a new order (read from /dev/tty since stdin is the heredoc),
rewrites config.toml preserving each block's nested runner subtable and
spacing, then restarts Wolf. Updated help text and README.

docker compose reads variables from .env automatically. Use ${WOLF_STATE_DIR}
in docker-compose.yml so the state folder path is dynamic — editing .env is
enough to relocate it without regenerating the compose file. IP/MAC/render
node stay baked in (hardware-specific, not in .env).

The right fix, finally. Instead of fighting Steam's libraryfolders.vdf or
symlinking individual app session homes, point Wolf's entire state folder at
the game drive. Steam's install, downloaded games, and Proton prefixes are
born there because Wolf creates every app's session home under
HOST_APPS_STATE_FOLDER.
- docker-compose.yml: mount $WOLF_STATE_DIR (=<game_dir>/wolf-state) at the
SAME path inside and outside the wolf container, set HOST_APPS_STATE_FOLDER
and WOLF_CFG_FOLDER to it. Same-path mount is required because Wolf hands
host paths to the Docker daemon when spawning sibling app containers.
- config.toml now lives at $WOLF_STATE_DIR/cfg/config.toml; all WOLF_CFG
references updated (install + manage.sh, via WOLF_STATE_DIR in .env).
- Optional migration: move existing /etc/wolf data onto the drive on upgrade.
- Removed all symlink machinery: relocate_steam_home, steam-home dir,
_relocate_steam_home in manage.sh, and the fix-perms relocation step.
fix-perms now just re-owns the state folder + game storage.
- Dropped the redundant Steam app mount; updated README/summary text.

Seeding libraryfolders.vdf never stuck: Steam rewrites that file on every
launch and forces its primary library back to its own install dir
(/home/retro/.local/share/Steam), which is the Wolf session home on the OS
drive. That's why Steam Storage kept showing /home/retro with the OS drive's
size no matter how many times we seeded the vdf.
New approach: relocate_steam_home symlinks each Wolf Steam session home
(/etc/wolf/<id>/Steam, bind-mounted to /home/retro) at
$GAME_STORAGE_DIR/steam-home. Steam's one and only library is then the game
drive, so installs, game files, and Proton prefixes all land there and the
Storage screen reports the game drive's free space. An existing Steam install
is moved over once (no re-download) before the symlink is created.
Wired into first install, manage.sh start (self-heals on reboot), and
manage.sh fix-perms. Dropped the redundant /mnt/games/steam mount and the
vdf seeding everywhere; updated the README heredoc with the one-time
connect / fix-perms / reconnect sequence.

After app injection + docker compose restart, Wolf creates per-app session
dirs under /etc/wolf/<id>/Steam. Wait up to 30s for those dirs to appear,
then copy the pre-built libraryfolders.vdf into each one so Steam sees the
game storage location on its very first launch — no manual setup needed.

Wolf creates /etc/wolf/<id>/Steam/ session dirs when the container starts,
not at install time. Previously the user had to manually run fix-perms after
first start to propagate libraryfolders.vdf.
manage.sh start now calls _seed_steam_library() after docker compose up,
which copies libraryfolders.vdf from game storage into any Wolf session dir
that doesn't have it yet — so the correct library path (/mnt/games/steam)
is in place before the first Moonlight connection.

Steam reads libraryfolders.vdf from /home/retro/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/
which Wolf serves from /etc/wolf/<session-id>/Steam/. Seeding it only in
/mnt/games/steam/steamapps/ was ignored since Steam doesn't know to look there.
- Seed the VDF into any existing /etc/wolf/<id>/Steam session dirs at install time
- manage.sh fix-perms now propagates the VDF from game storage into every
Wolf session dir so running fix-perms is the one-command remedy on existing
installs

The drive picker enumerated mounts with `lsblk MOUNTPOINT | df` round-trips,
which could miss a whole-disk mount (e.g. an nvme formatted directly with no
partition table). Switch to `lsblk -Pno NAME,MOUNTPOINT,SIZE,LABEL,UUID` and
parse the key="value" pairs directly — handles whole-disk mounts and empty
LABEL/UUID fields reliably, so every mounted data drive appears as a numbered
choice.

Wolf mounts each app's home dir from /etc/wolf/<session-id>/<App> into the
container as /home/retro. If anything there is root-owned (e.g. left over
from an earlier mount layout), the in-container retro user (uid 1000) hits
"Permission denied" creating ~/.steam and the app exits on launch.
- Add `./manage.sh fix-perms`: chowns every /etc/wolf/<id>/ app home dir
and the on-disk game storage to uid/gid 1000
- Document the /mnt/games mount layout, first-Steam-launch library step,
3DS/Azahar emulator path, and the fix-perms troubleshooting flow in the
generated README

Mounting into /home/retro subpaths causes Docker to create intermediate
directories (/.local/share/Steam etc.) as root-owned in the container
overlay before init runs. The GoW init chown step doesn't fully fix these,
so the retro user hits Permission denied on first write.
Move all mounts to neutral /mnt/games/* paths that don't interfere with
the container's home directory setup:
steam → /mnt/games/steam (add as Steam Library Folder via UI)
lutris → /mnt/games/lutris
kodi → /mnt/games/kodi
firefox → /mnt/games/firefox
minecraft → /mnt/games/minecraft
saves → /mnt/games/saves
emulators → /mnt/games/emulators
ROMs stay at /ROMs (GoW ES-DE hardcodes that path).

Mounting steam:/home/retro conflicted with the GoW Steam image's own
internal /home/retro mount. Mount steam:/home/retro/.local/share/Steam
instead — this is where steamapps/ and Proton prefixes actually live,
persists all game data, and doesn't collide.

- Steam mount was steam:/home/retro/.steam — games download to
/home/retro/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/ which was NOT mounted and
lived in the ephemeral container layer. Fixed to steam:/home/retro
so the full home dir (library, user data, Proton prefixes) persists.
- Add emulators/ subdir to game storage layout; mounted into ES-DE
container at /home/retro/Applications (ES-DE's default AppImage search path)
- Add optional Azahar (open-source Citra fork) AppImage download at
install time — fetches latest release from GitHub, chmod +x, places
in emulators/ where ES-DE finds it automatically for nintendo3ds ROMs
- Update README to document new storage layout and 3DS emulation setup

network_mode: host containers cannot join Docker networks, so the
caddy_net networks: block was dead code. The ${CADDY_NET:-caddy_net}
value (colon inside unquoted YAML scalar) was also causing
"mapping values are not allowed in this context" at parse time.

^(/|/boot|...) — the bare / alternate matches every absolute path,
so every non-home mount was silently skipped. Replace with explicit
glob checks so only root, system paths, and [SWAP] are excluded.
