# API — Open Items

Only keep unfinished API work here.

## Active
- normalize backup response shape: define canonical success bodies for list/create/restore/delete and a stable error envelope that preserves agent details
- service discovery migration: audit edge publish/DNS/Cloudflare/Technitium, Prometheus SD, dev IDE wildcard, and post-provision hot paths for direct host assumptions
- provisioning validation follow-up where API behavior is involved
- verify Portal compatibility after API JWT issuer/audience tightening, especially refresh flow and hosted IDE token flow
- migrate Portal delete calls to `DELETE /api/servers/:id`; `DELETE /api/containers/:vmid` currently remains as owned-user compatibility plus internal-token automation, but should return to internal-only once Portal is updated
- verify canonical and compatibility file routes still behave identically across list/stat/read/download/delete/put/revert/upload paths after helper extraction
- align merged live-status readiness fields so Portal-facing `agentReady` semantics fully match semantic `/ready`
- decide whether the remaining Portal-side `/api/agent/:serverId/:action` bridge should be deleted outright or formally kept as compatibility-only Portal-owned behavior
- live-verify Velocity bridge lifecycle callbacks after `ZPACK_PROXY_STATUS_ENDPOINT` is set: confirm `registered_with_proxy`, `proxy_ping_ok`, and `proxy_ping_failed` land in `ContainerInstance.payload.proxy` and surface through `GET /api/servers/:id/status`
- Portal integration follow-up for host/LXC lifecycle state: consume `GET /api/servers/:id/host/status`, list-level `hostStatus` / `powerState` / `hostOperation`, and `202` host action responses for game and dev containers
- remove or downgrade the temporary `MaxListenersExceededWarning` tracer in `src/app.js` after outbound Axios socket listener warnings are confirmed quiet in runtime logs
- verify Proxmox node resolution against all active container ranges; recent local smoke checks showed some DB VMIDs not present in `/cluster/resources` or on the configured node
- add minimal test/CI coverage for auth boundaries and teardown behavior:
  - normal users cannot reach admin-only routes
  - missing internal token fails closed for internal-only routes
  - owned-user delete archives then removes the active instance
  - non-owner delete fails
  - Stripe webhook raw-body handling remains intact

## Cleanup / consolidation priorities
- fold repeated ownership/auth/IP-guard patterns into small concrete helpers without hiding route intent
- split oversized route/service files by responsibility without changing route contracts
- keep backup/restore status shaping and async-dispatch logic explicit, but remove duplicated mapping/normalization paths where possible
- keep stream-vs-JSON forwarding rules centralized in one place and avoid route-local reimplementation
- keep legacy flows out of the live tree unless they are intentionally revived and revalidated against the current schema/contracts

## Completed and moved out of active cleanup
- Node/runtime pinning is no longer an open cleanup-only item; Node 24 pinning is now treated as current repo state
- `node-fetch` removal and built-in `fetch` migration are no longer open items
- initial file-proxy route deduplication has been completed; only compatibility verification and follow-on cleanup remain open
- Prisma config migration is no longer an open item
- baseline proxy cookie/log hardening is no longer an open item
- worker-era provisioning and detached legacy port reservation have been removed from the live tree rather than treated as active API surfaces
- initial control-plane hardening has landed: shared admin/internal-token middleware, admin-only audit/global instance list, internal-token guards on raw control-plane routes, and fail-closed monitoring/SD token behavior outside explicit development/test
- teardown workflow has been extracted into a service and live-verified against one game VMID and one dev VMID; both archived with `reason=user_delete` and active rows were removed
- repo hygiene pass removed checked-in key/token/artifact/legacy clutter and tightened ignore rules

## Cleanup rule
- prefer behavior-preserving folding over broad refactors
- merge repeated flows, not concepts
- keep helpers small and concrete
- reduce route-local duplication before introducing new abstractions
- treat security/runtime changes as contract-sensitive validation work once they affect auth, cookies, or route compatibility

## Verify before re-opening
- hosted IDE token + hosted URL flow
- backup forwarding semantics
- readiness polling/cache behavior
- quota enforcement on create flow
- restore async-start contract + status polling semantics
- streamed file edit/revert forwarding through both canonical and compatibility routes
- older-session re-login behavior after JWT tightening
- Portal-side `/api/agent` bridge usage before deleting any remaining compatibility code around instance lookup assumptions

## Not API-owned
- agent-local backup implementation details
- portal-only UX/polish
- PBS / infra backup strategy
