Adds command-line flags to zddc-server alongside the existing env vars.
Each setting can be set via --<flag-name> or ZDDC_<NAME>; the flag wins
on conflict, the env var wins over the hard-coded default.
--root / ZDDC_ROOT (now defaults to CWD if both unset)
--addr / ZDDC_ADDR (:8443)
--tls-cert / ZDDC_TLS_CERT ("none" / empty / path)
--tls-key / ZDDC_TLS_KEY
--log-level / ZDDC_LOG_LEVEL (info)
--index-path / ZDDC_INDEX_PATH (.archive)
--email-header / ZDDC_EMAIL_HEADER (X-Auth-Request-Email)
--cors-origin / ZDDC_CORS_ORIGIN (https://zddc.varasys.io; "" disables)
--insecure-direct / ZDDC_INSECURE_DIRECT (false)
--help (prints flag list to stderr, exits 0)
--version (prints binary + embedded tool versions, exits 0)
So an operator can `cd /srv/zddc && zddc-server` with zero config — the
served root defaults to the current directory, and TLS defaults to a
self-signed cert. config.Load now takes []string (test-friendly: nil
skips flag parsing entirely; tests pass an empty slice for env-only
loads).
Adds a `version` package-level var in main.go injected at link time via
`-ldflags="-X main.version=..."`. The build.sh runs git describe against
zddc-server-v* tags; for in-flight commits between releases it produces
e.g. zddc-server-v0.0.7-19-gadb6904-dirty.
Adds an embedded versions manifest:
- Each tool's compute_build_label (in shared/build-lib.sh) writes a
sidecar <tool>.label to $BUILD_LABELS_DIR if that env var is set.
- Top-level build.sh sets BUILD_LABELS_DIR before running each tool's
build, then assembles zddc/internal/apps/embedded/versions.txt as
one `<app>=<build label>` line per app.
- apps.EmbeddedVersions() loads the manifest at runtime.
- main.go logs a compact summary on every startup; --version dumps
the full per-app label.
Removes the old cfg.BuildVersion field — the X-ZDDC-Source: embedded
header now uses the package-level main.version directly.

Extends the form-based .zddc editor at /.profile/zddc/edit?path=<dir>
with an Apps section between Admins and the Effective chain.
The section is a six-row table — default plus the five canonical apps —
with one text input per row. Each row's right column shows a server-
rendered "Resolves to" preview computed by walking the cascade through
this directory and applying default + per-app composition. The preview
displays the final URL, "embedded (build-time default)", or "local file:
<path>" so operators see exactly what will be served.
Help text covers the full spec syntax (channel/version/URL/path forms,
:channel shorthand, default key) plus the ?v= per-request override and
its cache-only security constraint.
Permission gating is unchanged: existing CanEditZddc() strict-ancestor
rule applies — subtree admins cannot edit the file that grants their
own authority. Field-level errors land inline next to the input, just
like the existing ACL/admins fields.
POST handler (internal/handler/zddchandler.go) accepts a new Apps map
in the JSON write request, validates via the existing zddc.ValidateFile
flow (which now enforces apps.<name> spec syntax), and writes
atomically through the unchanged zddc.WriteFile path.
Three new tests: round-trip apps including the default key, per-field
validation error returns, and editor renders the apps section with
existing .zddc values pre-filled.

Adds internal/apps/ package serving the five tool HTMLs at virtual paths
based on the surrounding folder name convention:
archive every directory (multi-project, project, archive, vendor)
classifier any Incoming/Working/Staging directory and subtree
mdedit any Working directory and subtree
transmittal any Staging directory and subtree
landing only at deployment root
The current-stable build of every tool is //go:embed'd into the binary
at compile time — that's the default with zero config. Operators
override per-directory via .zddc apps: entries; closer-to-leaf wins.
Spec syntax (in any apps: value):
stable / beta / alpha / :stable channel
v0.0.4 / v0.0 / v0 / :v0.0.4 version
https://my-mirror/releases URL prefix only
https://my-mirror/releases:beta URL prefix + channel
https://my-fork/archive.html terminal full URL
./local.html / /abs/path.html terminal local path
The special apps.default key provides a baseline URL prefix and channel
inherited by any app not overridden per-name. Per-axis cascade: a deeper
.zddc can override the URL, the channel, or both.
Cascade walks root→leaf; default applies first at each level, then the
per-app entry. Terminal sources (paths and full .html URLs) short-circuit
composition; deeper non-terminal entries override parent terminals.
URL sources fetch once on first request and cache forever in
<ZDDC_ROOT>/_app/<host>/<path> — different upstreams with the same
filename stay distinct. No background refresh, no SHA-256 verification:
operators delete the cache file to force a refetch. Concurrent misses
for the same source dedupe via a 30-line hand-rolled singleflight.
Per-request override: any user can append ?v=<spec> to a tool URL
(e.g. ?v=beta, ?v=v0.0.4, ?v=:alpha, ?v=https://mirror/releases:beta)
to ask for a different build for one request. Security: ?v= serves
ONLY versions already in the cache (cache miss returns 404; path
sources are rejected outright with 400). Users cannot trigger
arbitrary upstream fetches via crafted URLs.
Failed URL fetches (network down, 5xx) fall back to embedded with a
one-time WARN log. The X-ZDDC-Source response header reports what
served: fetch:URL / cache:URL / path:/abs / embedded:<app>@<build>.
Wire-in (cmd/zddc-server/main.go): dispatch routes <dir>/<app>.html
through apps.MatchAppHTML + AppAvailableAt + apps.Server.Serve when
no real file exists. Direct URL access to /_app/... is blocked at
the dispatch layer — cached files must go through the apps resolver
so they get correct Content-Type and ACL gating.
Schema (internal/zddc/file.go): ZddcFile gains Apps map[string]string
for cascade overrides. Validator (internal/zddc/validate.go) accepts
the special "default" key alongside the five canonical app names and
all spec forms.
Removes ZDDC_APPS_* env vars (no admin UI, no refresh interval, no
upstream allow-list — the simpler model has fewer knobs).
40+ unit tests across the new package: parser shapes, cascade
resolution with default+per-app interactions, terminal short-circuit
semantics, ?v= cache-only enforcement, embedded fallback, atomic
cache writes, singleflight dedup. Plus end-to-end dispatch tests in
cmd/zddc-server/main_test.go.

The middleware chain in main.go was:
AccessLogMiddleware ( CORSMiddleware ( ACLMiddleware ( dispatch ) ) )
ACLMiddleware extracts the user email from the configured header and
stores it in the request context via r.WithContext. But Go's context
propagates DOWN the chain (to handlers further in) — not back UP. The
new context-bearing request only exists inside the call to
next.ServeHTTP; once that returns, the outer middleware still has the
ORIGINAL request without the email. So AccessLogMiddleware's
EmailFromContext(r) call (which runs after next.ServeHTTP returns to
log the request) read from the original context and got an empty
string, falling through to "anonymous".
The /.profile/ page worked correctly because it reads the email
directly inside the handler — at that depth the context-bearing
request is the one in scope.
Fix: invert the chain so ACL is OUTERMOST.
ACLMiddleware ( AccessLogMiddleware ( CORSMiddleware ( dispatch ) ) )
Now ACL extracts the email and the new request flows down through
AccessLog (which sees the email-bearing context), CORS, and dispatch.
Add three regression tests in middleware_test.go:
TestAccessLogReadsEmailFromACLContext
The fix: with ACL outer, AccessLog logs email=alice@example.com
when X-Auth-Request-Email is set.
TestAccessLogAnonymousWhenNoEmail
The unchanged path: no header → email=anonymous (correct fallback).
TestAccessLogOuterDoesNotSeeInnerContext
Locks down Go's actual context-propagation behavior. Builds the
INVERTED (buggy) chain and asserts that AccessLog (outer) does NOT
see the email ACL (inner) set. If this ever fails, Go's context
propagation has changed in a way that lets inner-set context flow
upward — which would mean the reordering fix could be reverted.
All zddc-server tests pass via `go test ./...` (run in podman against
golang:1.24-alpine since this dev host doesn't have Go installed).

Replaces the super-admin-only /.admin/ surface with a public-by-default
/.profile/ page that layers admin tools server-side based on the
caller's effective access:
- Universal (everyone, anonymous included): identity card, effective
access summary, theme picker, localStorage utilities (export / import
/ clear, landing-presets viewer).
- Subtree admins additionally see: editable .zddc files list (linking
to the existing form-based editor) and a "Create new project folder"
form.
- Super-admins additionally see: server config, log viewer, whoami
headers (the old /.admin/ JSON endpoints, repointed under /.profile/).
Project creation is gated on CanEditZddc(newDir) — the same strict-
ancestor rule that already governs .zddc writes — so no new authority
concept is introduced. ValidateProjectName mirrors the existing
reserved-prefix policy (no leading '.' or '_', no path separators).
/.admin/* is hard-cut: no redirect shim. Old URLs fall through to the
existing dot-prefix guard and 404. Custom CSS file rename: prefer
<root>/.profile.css, fall back to legacy <root>/.admin.css.
Per-resource 404 leakage gates preserved on whoami / config / logs /
zddc / projects so non-admin callers cannot detect the existence of
admin-only sub-resources.
Tree-wide gofmt -w applied as a side-effect.

Generalize the admin model from "single root super-admin" to a
delegated chain: a `<dir>/.zddc/admins` list grants admin authority
for that subtree, with a strict-ancestor rule preventing
self-elevation (you cannot edit the .zddc that grants your own
authority — only files strictly below it).
Add a guided server-rendered editor at /.admin/zddc/edit?path=<dir>
so subtree admins can manage their fiefdoms without filesystem
access. JSON API at /.admin/zddc covers GET (file + effective chain
+ can_edit), POST (atomic write + cache invalidation), DELETE,
plus a /tree endpoint listing every .zddc visible to the caller.
Optional theming via <root>/.admin.css.
Validation: glob syntax check, root-self-demotion rejection,
reserved-prefix path guard, YAML round-trip sanity. Writes are
atomic (temp file + fsync + rename) and invalidate the policy
cache.
Also includes the prior in-flight `Title` field on ProjectInfo
so per-project .zddc titles surface on the landing-page picker.

The .archive virtual directory now emits both <tracking>.html (highest
base rev) and <tracking>_<rev>.html (each specific base rev) so HTML
documents can deep-link to a known revision and have it resolve to the
first chronologically received copy. Modifier files (<rev>+C1 etc.) stay
reachable via the resolver but aren't surfaced in the listing.
.archive at any folder depth serves the same global index — the depth
exists so offline HTML can use ../.archive/<tracking>.html and let the
browser resolve it before the request reaches the server. The earlier
attempt at scoping listings to the contextPath subtree was wrong; gating
is purely by ACL: contextPath gates the listing endpoint, and each
entry's resolved file gets its own per-target ACL check (404 on denial,
not 403, so cross-subtree existence isn't disclosed).
Adds the first tests for the previously untested archive package, plus
end-to-end ACL coverage for the handler (cascade direction, default-deny
once any .zddc exists, anonymous denied under allow:[\"*@…\"], stable
Location across contextPaths).

ACLMiddleware now slog.Debug's the configured email-header name, the
observed value at that name, and the full r.Header map on every request.
Off at the default INFO log level; enable per-pod with ZDDC_LOG_LEVEL=debug.
Motivated by debugging the X-Auth-Request-Email passthrough chain — when
access logs show email=anonymous, /.admin/whoami is unreachable (the
admin gate requires a non-empty email, which is the chicken-and-egg).
The debug log line dumps headers without the gate, so an operator can
identify whichever header name the upstream proxy is actually setting
(X-Forwarded-User, X-Forwarded-Email, Remote-User, X-Authentik-Email,
etc.) and adjust ZDDC_EMAIL_HEADER accordingly.
The debug-level dump captures auth tokens and cookies along with
everything else; safe in dev clusters, not appropriate for production
unless the operator is comfortable with the trade-off. README documents
the trade-off in the Admin Debug Page section.

Listings now filter both '.' and '_' prefixes:
- '.' entries: excluded from listings AND 404 on direct HTTP access
(existing behavior). For invisible side-state like .devshell.
- '_' entries: excluded from listings only — direct URL access still
works. For operator scaffolding like install.zip's _template/
directory of bootstrap stubs that should be reachable but should
not appear in the project picker.
Filter applied at both listing entry points: ServeProjectList (the
project picker JSON at GET / Accept: application/json) and the generic
listing/FromDirEntries (used by ServeDirectory for sub-directory
browse listings).

Three improvements bundled because they all ship as zddc-server v0.0.2:
* /.admin/ debug dashboard with /whoami, /config, /logs sub-routes.
Authorization via a top-level `admins:` glob list in <ZDDC_ROOT>/.zddc
(root-only — subdir entries deliberately ignored to prevent privilege
escalation via subtree write access). Non-admin requests get 404 so the
page is invisible. Recent logs surface via a 500-entry slog ring buffer
teed off the existing TextHandler. Lets operators debug without
kubectl exec.
* Default ZDDC_EMAIL_HEADER changes from `X-Email` to
`X-Auth-Request-Email` — the oauth2-proxy / nginx auth-request
convention that the TND helm chart already sets explicitly.
Operators who set the env var explicitly are unaffected; deployments
relying on the previous default need to set ZDDC_EMAIL_HEADER=X-Email
or update their proxy.
* dispatch() rejects any URL whose segments contain a dot prefix other
than the recognized virtual prefixes (.admin, cfg.IndexPath /
.archive). Matches the existing listing-pipeline filter so hidden
subtrees on the served PVC (e.g. /srv/.devshell — used by the
in-cluster dev-shell for persistent home-dir state) become
unreachable via direct HTTP fetch, not just hidden in listings.
Refreshes the X-Email reference in website/index.html accordingly.
