tajniak81andClaude Opus 5 9bd5c523c4 Plugins: the global layer moves into the database, beside the other two
The integration cascade stored its top layer differently from the two below
it: org (L2) and user (L3) plugin config lived in PocketBase, in a
pluginSettings field, while the global (L1) layer sat in a plugins.json
next to the binary. That split was accretion rather than design - the file
was the whole store in the v1 MVP, and the per-tenant layers were later
built on PocketBase and layered on top of it instead of replacing it.

It also cost something real. plugins.json was a second state store with
different durability from pb_data: its own volume, its own ownership, its
own backup. Losing pb_data is unmissable; losing api_data was silent, which
is how "every plugin comes back disabled after a redeploy" happened.

L1 now lives in the app_settings collection - one record keyed "global",
holding its settings in a pluginSettings field, the same mechanism and the
same field name the layers below use. The documents still differ in shape,
because only L1 carries enable state and the registration of external
plugins, but the storage is no longer a special case.

The Manager grows a Store seam (PocketBase in production, file for the
import, memory for tests) and, more importantly, a loaded gate. Settings in
a database mean the store can be unreachable at boot - a cold stack, or a
service account still to be set from the panel. That must not read as "no
plugins configured", or the first save would write emptiness over real
settings. So until a read succeeds the Manager stays unloaded, every
mutation is refused, /api/admin/plugins* answers 503, and a background
retry backs off to two minutes. The same gate covers a document that will
not parse: it is never replaced by one built from an empty map, which is a
stronger guarantee than the .corrupt backup it replaces.

Writing to a store also revealed a hole in the previous fix. Classifying a
save failure as errPersist was left to each Store, and a store that
returned a plain error would fall through to the "saved, but the plugin
failed to start" branch and be reported as a 200 - the same silent-success
bug through a different door. The Manager now classifies, whatever the
Store returns; a test pins it.

Upgrades are automatic: on the first boot that finds no settings in the
database, an existing plugins.json is imported and renamed to
plugins.json.migrated. The import is refused if the store is merely
unreachable, or if the file does not parse, so a stale or broken file can
never overwrite live settings. /data is still needed - the panel rewrites
.env there when it retargets PocketBase - but plugin settings no longer
depend on it.

21 tests in internal/plugins cover both stores, including the production
path against a fake PocketBase: create-then-update of the singleton,
round-trip across a restart, an outage that leaves settings intact, a
missing collection reading as not-ready rather than empty, and the import
running exactly once. go build, go vet and go test ./... pass. Schema
changes are mirrored into scripts/setup-pocketbase.mjs as that file
requires. Not verified: no Docker CLI here, so no image was built and the
bootstrap of app_settings against a real PocketBase is untested outside the
fake.

tajniak81andClaude Opus 5 c173ca3653 Plugins: a save that fails should say so, not vanish on redeploy
Reported symptom: every plugin comes back disabled after redeploying the
image, having been enabled before it. The persistence design was already
right - each compose file mounts api_data:/data and points PLUGINS_FILE at
/data/plugins.json - so the fault was that a failed write to that file was
invisible. Three defects, each confirmed with a test before being fixed:

A failed write was reported as success. Upsert set rec.Enabled before it
persisted, and the handler folded the resulting error into the same
200-with-warning used for "saved, but the connector failed to start". The
panel reloaded, read the in-memory record and showed the plugin enabled;
only a restart revealed that nothing had reached the disk. A save that
fails now rolls back in memory and returns 500, so the panel row shows the
error instead of "Saved".

A corrupt state file silently wiped the rest. Load returned an error,
main.go logged it and carried on with an empty record set, so the next
toggle overwrote plugins.json and took every other plugin's config with
it. An unreadable file is now moved aside to plugins.json.corrupt, and
persistLocked writes through a temp file + rename so an interrupted write
cannot produce that corrupt file in the first place.

A state file holding "null" panicked the server with "assignment to entry
in nil map" on the next save, and a null entry nil-dereferenced in Load.
Both now decode to "nothing configured".

Two changes make the next such failure loud rather than silent.
StartPlugins probes writability at boot and warns that plugin changes will
not survive a restart. And the API Server image gains the root entrypoint
the AIO image already had - chown /data, then drop to app via su-exec -
because a host bind mount (API_DATA=/srv/...) or a volume created before
/data existed arrives root-owned, and the unprivileged process cannot
write to it.

Not addressed here: a deployment that never reuses the named volume
(docker compose down -v, a renamed compose project, an anonymous volume
from a bare docker run) loses the file whatever the code does. The new
boot warning tells the two apart - writable but empty means the volume is
the problem, not permissions.

go build, go vet and go test ./... all pass. The Dockerfile change is
reviewed but not built: there is no Docker CLI on this machine, so the
su-exec privilege drop follows standard Alpine practice rather than an
observed run.

tajniak81andClaude Opus 4.8 ae6ed4ac1e Rebuild API Server on the PilotVault structure
Mirror PilotVault's API Server layout and add the superadmin console,
plugin system, runtime PocketBase settings, and user/organization
management. The car domain (cars, service records, parts, sharing) is
carried over unchanged apart from the auth switch.

Layout: main.go -> cmd/server/main.go; module carcontrol/api ->
drivervault/apiserver. internal/api is split by concern (auth, users,
orgs, settings, plugins, status, health, respond).

Auth: replace the server-minted HS256 JWT and the sessions collection
with a PocketBase token proxy. /api/auth/login relays PocketBase's
{token, record}, and every protected request re-resolves that token
against PocketBase, so a role change or deletion takes effect at once
instead of waiting out a token. AUTH_SECRET is obsolete and internal/auth
is gone. Per-device session listing/revocation goes with it: PocketBase
tokens are stateless. Changing a password rotates the user's token key,
which invalidates every token already issued.

Roles: add superadmin alongside user/admin, plus an organizations
collection and users.organization. Admins are scoped to their own
organization; superadmins span all of them. Guards prevent changing your
own role, deleting your own account, an admin touching a superadmin, and
deleting an organization that still has members.

Plugins: new internal/plugins package with one contract over two kinds --
builtin (compiled in) and external (any HTTP service, registered at
runtime with no rebuild). State persists to plugins.json; secrets are
masked on read and preserved when saved back at the mask.

PocketBase settings: /api/admin/pb-config applies a new connection at
runtime and persists it to .env. It deliberately does not require a
working service account, so a wrong or unreachable connection can still
be fixed from the panel.

Panel: rebuilt as the superadmin console -- login gate, status, users,
organizations, PocketBase, plugins, and the endpoint reference.

Clients: update the Web App and Phone App for the PocketBase token shape,
the move of user management to /api/users ({users}/{user} envelopes, with
password resets folded into PATCH), and the removal of sessions. Both now
mirror the server's real guards rather than the old last-admin rule, and
parse PocketBase's field-level error shape.

Config: modern POCKETBASE_*/API_ADDR names with legacy PB_*/PORT
fallbacks, so existing .env files keep working. Also fixes /api/status
probing the Web App on 8090 instead of DriverVault's 5173.

Run scripts/setup-pocketbase.mjs to add the organizations collection and
grow users.role; every client must log in once more.
