Confirmed live: install_frigate()'s fresh-install path overwrote a
working, hand-crafted docker-compose.yml (Frigate + mosquitto +
frigate-notify) with zero backup, because that file's shape didn't match
what frigate.sh's own "existing install" detection knew how to recognize.
Every service's own detection is a judgment call about what counts as
"already installed" and can miss a real setup built outside this repo's
conventions.
lib/common.sh gains backup_if_exists(FILE) — copies FILE to
FILE.bak.<timestamp> if it exists, no-ops otherwise (including DRY_RUN).
Applied before every service's own `cat > docker-compose.yml`/`cat > .env`
write across all 60 services that do one (115 call sites), plus a matching
standalone-mode stub added to every service's own bootstrap block, same
convention already used for port_in_use/find_free_port. This doesn't
replace a service's own update/fresh-reinstall detection — it's the safety
net underneath it, so a wrong detection costs a .bak file to restore from
instead of the original silently disappearing.
Also fixes the actual gap that surfaced this: services/frigate.sh's
Authelia offer only checked for Authelia installed locally on Frigate's
own box, which is never true for a dedicated NVR box with no local Caddy
either (the common shape — Caddy lives elsewhere, snippet-generation mode
already handles that). Now offers Authelia protection unconditionally and,
when Authelia isn't local, asks whether it lives on the same machine as
Caddy (still "import authelia", since that's local to wherever Caddy ends
up) or on a genuinely separate third machine (the explicit
header-pinned forward_auth form, per CLAUDE.md's "forward_auth to a remote
Authelia" note, needed because a bare authelia:9091 shortcut only works
one hop).
traccar.sh's caddy_net wiring was fixed to mirror configure_caddy_for_service's
own mode resolution (CADDY_MODE from site config, then a local ~/docker/caddy,
then the legacy CADDY_REMOTE_HOST var) instead of only checking for the local
directory. That same bare directory check was copy-pasted into the caddy_net
wiring of every other Docker service in the repo, so a site with Caddy on a
different box would silently fail to join any of their containers to caddy_net
during setup (or, for homeassistant/koha, only get half the wiring right).
Applied the same fix mechanically across all 37 services using the standard
_CADDY_NET_BLOCK/_CADDY_NET_SECTION pattern (verified identical text via
scripted diff before touching any of them), plus by hand for:
- homeassistant.sh and koha.sh, which use their own differently-shaped
variables (HA_CADDY_NET_LINES / _CADDY_NET_ENTRY) for the same decision
- paintplus.sh and ai-stack.sh, which do a live `docker network connect`
instead of a compose network block
- watchyourlan.sh, whose Caddy note was worded for local-only setups
sms-inbound.sh got more than a mode swap: its Caddy wiring was hand-rolled
(not routed through configure_caddy_for_service) and had no remote-Caddy
path at all — a remote Caddy box would get a misleading "Caddy isn't
installed here" message instead of a snippet. Added
_sms_write_caddy_snippet(), mirroring the snippet-file pattern
configure_caddy_for_service uses everywhere else, and pointed the firewall
gate at the same three-way mode instead of a two-way dir check.
Verified: bash -n across all of services/*.sh, a scripted check that every
touched file has exactly one _CADDY_MODE resolution and no leftover bare
`[ -d "$DOCKER_DIR/caddy" ]` feeding a caddy_net decision, and spot-checked
docker compose config renders (traccar, mattermost) confirming the ${VAR}
interpolation and multi-service usage sites still resolve correctly.
- Add write_readme() to the standalone bootstrap stubs (was defined in
wolf-pair.sh and other services but missing here)
- Only include the caddy_net network block in docker-compose.yml when
~/docker/caddy exists; otherwise docker compose up fails with
"network caddy_net declared as external, but could not be found"

New site config key: CADDY_REMOTE_HOST (set via 'sudo ./setup.sh configure').
When set, configure_caddy_for_service operates in "remote" mode instead of
writing to a local Caddyfile:
- Upstream uses CADDY_REMOTE_HOST:PORT (host IP, not container name)
- Snippet saved to ~/docker/caddy-snippets/<subdomain>.caddy
- User is shown scp/rsync commands to copy it to the Caddy machine
Three modes in configure_caddy_for_service (lib/common.sh and inline stubs):
local: ~/docker/caddy/ exists → write Caddyfile + reload (existing behavior)
remote: CADDY_REMOTE_HOST set → save snippet, print copy instructions
none: neither configured → silent return (unchanged)
All 31 service standalone bootstrap stubs updated with the new logic.
CADDY_REMOTE_HOST global added to all 42 standalone bootstrap sections.
setup.sh configure now prompts for CADDY_REMOTE_HOST with a clear explanation.
wolf.sh: add missing stubs (configure_caddy_for_service, write_readme,
prompt_yn, ensure_docker_dir_ownership) and the Authelia/Caddy/start calls
that were missing from the install function.

These services have no built-in auth. Per CLAUDE.md they should check for
Authelia and offer to protect them with SSO before calling
configure_caddy_for_service. Adds the standard prompt_yn + import authelia
extra block pattern to all three.
https://claude.ai/code/session_014CCYqVwW6d6f5dw1qRokYt
- wolf.sh: add Authelia SSO check, configure_caddy_for_service, write_readme,
and prompt to start Wolf (it had none of these)
- homeassistant.sh: add write_readme with access URL and manage commands
- js99er.sh: add write_readme with access URL and manage commands
- minecraft.sh: add write_readme with manage and backup commands
Completes the service audit — all 49 services now have full interactive setup,
standalone bootstrap, and self-documenting README in the deploy directory.

Each service can now be run directly with sudo bash <service>.sh on any
machine with Docker installed, without needing the full post-install repo.
Uses the shared bootstrap pattern from docs/standalone-template.sh.

Undo the host.docker.internal approach from the previous commit — proper
Docker networking routes Caddy to services by container name on the shared
caddy_net, not via the host gateway.
- lib/common.sh: configure_caddy_for_service now accepts either a plain
port number (localhost:PORT fallback) or container:port (preferred).
The Caddyfile entry uses the container name for direct Docker DNS routing.
- services/caddy.sh: remove extra_hosts hack; update Caddyfile template
comments to show container_name:port format
- All service files: update configure_caddy_for_service calls to pass
container_name:internal_port (e.g. "filebrowser:80", "mealie:9000").
Services using network_mode:host keep plain port numbers.
- tools/manage_users.sh: new FileBrowser user-management script (deployed
to ~/docker/filebrowser/ during installation). Manages users via the
FileBrowser REST API: list, add, delete, passwd, scope, info commands.
Documents username format (letters/numbers/hyphens/underscores),
password rules (min 8 chars, letter + number required), and scope path
convention relative to /srv (= FB_PATH on the host).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01UZus2Q9gNTfUdqSMrhuX29
- lib/common.sh: fix broken reverse_proxy target — localhost inside Caddy's
container is the container's own loopback, not the host; change to
host.docker.internal so proxied ports are actually reachable
- services/caddy.sh: add extra_hosts host.docker.internal:host-gateway so
the above resolves correctly; create caddy_net bridge network in Caddy's
own compose so other services can reference it as external; update all
Caddyfile template comments and README examples to match
- services/filebrowser.sh: update image tag from deprecated :s6 to :latest;
remove non-functional PUID/PGID env vars (filebrowser/filebrowser does not
honour them); add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/ntfy.sh: add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/portainer.sh: add configure_caddy_for_service call; add caddy_net
- services/frigate-notify.sh, watchtower.sh: add caddy_net for
container-to-container comms (frigate, ntfy) without a Caddy call
- All remaining web-facing Docker services: add caddy_net network block to
docker-compose and CADDY_NET to .env where applicable; services using
network_mode: host (wolf-pair, lyrion) have the top-level block only
