- Add VERSION file at repo root as single source of truth for app version
- frontend/vite.config.ts reads VERSION file instead of package.json
- backend config.py exposes APP_VERSION read from VERSION (dev) or /app/VERSION (Docker)
- database.py backs up DB to homelab.db.back-{version} before running migrations
(skipped if DB doesn't exist or backup already exists — fully idempotent)
- Dockerfile.backend and Dockerfile.frontend copy VERSION into the image
- Add test_db_backup.py with 4 tests covering create/skip/idempotent/version cases
- verify_password catches ValueError from passlib so a mangled hash
($ signs stripped by shell/Docker) returns False instead of crashing
- Settings.check_password_hash logs a clear startup error with fix
instructions when AUTH_PASSWORD_HASH doesn't start with '$2'
Implements issue #5. Off by default; set LIVEVIEW_KEY in .env to enable.
No JWT required — key-based auth via ?key= query param.
Returns 403 when disabled or key is wrong.
Read-only ReactFlow canvas (pan/zoom, no editing).
Standalone mode loads from localStorage without a key.
Includes 8 backend tests and 9 frontend tests.
Exposes homelab topology to MCP-compatible AI clients (Claude Code, etc.)
over LAN via HTTP/SSE on port 8001.
- New mcp/ service: FastAPI + mcp SDK, SSE transport
- Auth: X-API-Key for AI clients, X-MCP-Service-Key for backend (Docker-internal)
- Resources: canvas, nodes, edges, scan/pending, scan/runs
- Tools: create/update/delete nodes+edges, trigger scan, approve/hide devices
- Backend deps.py: accepts JWT or MCP service key (no plain-text password)
- 40 tests (auth, resources, tools) across asyncio + trio
- docker-compose.yml: mcp service on port 8001
- README: MCP setup section with Claude Code/Desktop config examples
All settings (auth credentials, scanner ranges, status_checker interval)
now live in a single .env file via pydantic-settings. config.yml and
config.yml.example are deleted.
- Settings: add auth_username, auth_password_hash, scanner_ranges,
status_checker_interval; add load_overrides()/save_overrides() for
persisting runtime changes to data/scan_config.json
- auth.py: read credentials directly from settings
- scan.py: read ranges/interval from settings; write-back via save_overrides()
- scheduler.py: read interval directly from settings
- main.py: call settings.load_overrides() at startup
- docker-compose.yml: remove config.yml volume mount, add new env vars
- conftest.py: set settings fields directly instead of writing a temp config.yml
C3 - config.yml contains credentials, remove from git tracking:
- Add backend/config.yml to .gitignore
- git rm --cached to untrack it
- Add backend/config.yml.example with instructions
C1 - SECRET_KEY must come from .env, no unsafe default:
- Remove hardcoded "change_me_in_production" default from config.py
- App now fails to start if SECRET_KEY is not set (pydantic required field)
- Generate real random key in backend/.env (gitignored)
- Add backend/.env.example for new contributors
H1 - WebSocket /ws/status was unauthenticated:
- Backend: require ?token= query param, validate via decode_token(),
close with code 1008 (Policy Violation) if missing or invalid
- Frontend: append ?token=<jwt> to WebSocket URL
