fix(system-resources): divide chart rows evenly via CSS, no board-zoom pixel math

Each visible chart row was hardcoded to a fixed pixel height (110px in
advanced mode, 56px-capped in compact) regardless of the widget's actual
tile size - resizing the tile taller left the extra height unused, and
some visible charts required scrolling to reach.

Divide the available height evenly across rows using CSS Grid's
grid-auto-rows: 1fr (the Stack fills the tile via a definite pixel
height, the SimpleGrid grows into it via flex and divides its rows
evenly) rather than computing a per-chart pixel height in JS. Confirmed
via live inspection of a deployed board that Mantine's h prop is not
safe for this: its rem() converter strips a "px" suffix from any string
before checking whether it's a parseable number, so even a literal pixel
*string* passed through h= gets rescaled by rem() * var(--mantine-scale)
exactly like a raw number would - style.height is the only way to set
an exact, un-rescaled pixel value.

+description: Navigate Homarr's monorepo architecture and reuse shared packages. Use when locating code, choosing a package boundary, understanding runtime services, tRPC, databases, widgets, integrations, cron jobs, Custom Widgets, Workshop, or checking @homarr/common before creating a utility.
+---
+
+# Homarr Codebase Context
+
+Orient from the current checkout before editing. Treat package manifests, exports, and source as authoritative when they differ from this snapshot.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Confirm the branch and inspect the nearest `package.json`, existing sibling modules, and package exports.
+2. Search `@homarr/common` before creating a general-purpose helper. Read [references/common.md](references/common.md) for every public entrypoint and export.
+3. Read [references/architecture.md](references/architecture.md) when the task crosses packages, runtimes, routing, data, widgets, integrations, cron jobs, Custom Widgets, or Workshop.
+4. Keep the change in the deepest package that owns the behavior. Reuse public entrypoints rather than deep-importing implementation files.
+5. Re-run targeted searches before documenting counts, consumers, or dependency edges; these change faster than the architectural seams.
+
+## Current toolchain
+
+- Use Node `24.18.0` from `mise.toml` and pnpm `11.15.1` from `package.json`.
+- Use pnpm workspaces with Turborepo. Workspace packages use the `@homarr/` scope and catalog-managed dependencies.
+- Use Next.js App Router, TypeScript, tRPC, Drizzle, Mantine v9, Tabler icons, Jotai, TanStack Query, next-intl, Vitest, and Playwright.
+- Use oxlint and oxfmt. Mantine is the application UI system; Tailwind is limited to the docs app.
+- `pnpm dev` starts only `@homarr/nextjs`. Start a standalone runtime explicitly when the task needs it.
+
+## High-value seams
+
+- Server/RSC tRPC: `@homarr/api/server`
+- Client tRPC hooks: `@homarr/api/client`
+- Main router: `packages/api/src/root.ts`
+- MCP eager router: `packages/api/src/mcp.ts`
+- Database schemas: `packages/db/schema/{sqlite,mysql,postgresql}.ts`
+- Widget registry: `packages/widgets/src/registry.ts`
+- Widget loading manifest: `packages/widgets/src/manifest.ts`
+- Integration definitions: `packages/definitions/src/integration.ts`
+- Integration factory: `packages/integrations/src/base/creator.ts`
+- Cron jobs: `packages/cron-jobs/src/jobs/`
+- App routes: `apps/nextjs/src/app/[locale]/`
+
+When a code change affects users, invoke `documentation-sync`. When exposing tRPC through MCP, invoke `mcp-integration`.

+| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `apps/nextjs`    | Main Next.js application and HTTP APIs on port 3000                                      |
+| `apps/docs`      | Docusaurus documentation site on port 3003                                               |
+| `apps/tasks`     | Cron-job initialization and scheduling runtime; it does not expose the old port-3002 API |
+| `apps/websocket` | tRPC WebSocket subscriptions on port 3001                                                |
+| `apps/workshop`  | Go/PocketBase Workshop service and provider integration                                  |
+
+`pnpm dev` runs only `@homarr/nextjs`. Use `pnpm --filter @homarr/tasks dev`, `pnpm --filter @homarr/websocket dev`, or `pnpm dev:docs` when a task needs those runtimes.
+
+In production, `apps/nextjs/src/instrumentation-node.ts` starts the tasks and WebSocket runtimes inside the Node process. Nginx listens on port 7575, proxies `/websockets` to port 3001, and sends other traffic to port 3000. Redis can run internally or externally.
+
+## Package map
+
+### Foundation and domain
+
+- `core`: environment validation, database and Redis factories, logging, infrastructure.
+- `definitions`: domain enums, integration definitions, widget kinds, permissions.
+- `common`: shared utilities with environment-specific entrypoints. Search it before adding helpers.
+- `validation`: shared Zod schemas.
+- `server-settings`: typed server-setting keys and access.
+
+### Data, identity, and transport
+
+- `db`: Drizzle schemas, queries, migrations, and three database drivers.
+- `auth`: Auth.js/NextAuth configuration, sessions, providers, and API keys.
+- `api`: tRPC routers, contexts, MCP metadata extraction, OpenAPI, and client/server entrypoints.
+- `redis`: Redis clients, pub/sub channels, and caches.
+- `cron-jobs-core`, `cron-jobs`, `cron-job-status`: scheduling primitives, job implementations, and status transport.
+
+### Backends and external systems
+
+- `integrations`: typed clients for external applications.
+- `request-handler`: shared server request flows.
+- `docker`, `ping`, `image-proxy`, `icons`, `analytics`: bounded infrastructure capabilities.
+- `custom-widgets`: Custom JSX v2 schema, validation, runtime, and security contracts.
+- `workshop`: TypeScript Workshop client, backend contracts, and schemas used by Homarr.
+
+### UI and composed features
+
+- `ui`: shared Mantine components, theme, and hooks. Search here before creating a primitive.
+- `form`, `forms-collection`: Zod-backed form setup and reusable forms.
+- `modals`, `modals-collection`: modal primitives and feature modals.
+- `boards`: board state, edit mode, and cache coordination.
+- `settings`, `spotlight`, `notifications`, `onboarding`: cross-feature UI flows.
+- `widgets`: widget definitions, dynamic component loaders, and shared widget UI.
+- `translation`: next-intl configuration and locale catalogs.
+- `cli`: Node operations CLI. `tools/homarr-dev` is the separate Go developer CLI.
+
+## Dependency direction
+
+Prefer these directions; verify the exact dependency in package manifests before changing a boundary.
+
+1. Put infrastructure in `core` and stable domain names in `definitions`.
+2. Put reusable, dependency-light helpers in `common`; use its public environment-specific entrypoints.
+3. Build persistence in `db`, identity in `auth`, transport in `redis`, and external clients in `integrations`.
+4. Compose server behavior in `api`, `cron-jobs`, and request-handler packages.
+5. Build primitives in `ui`, `form`, and `modals`; compose product surfaces in widgets and collection packages.
+6. Keep app entrypoints in `apps/*` thin. Avoid moving reusable behavior into `apps/nextjs` when a package already owns it.
+
+## Core patterns
+
+### tRPC and MCP
+
+`packages/api/src/root.ts` lazily composes the application router. Server components use `@homarr/api/server`; client components use `@homarr/api/client`. MCP extraction requires the eager router in `packages/api/src/mcp.ts`, so MCP-enabled subrouters must be imported and registered there directly. Use the `mcp-integration` skill for exposure and security rules.
+
+### Databases
+
+Drizzle schemas live in parallel files under `packages/db/schema/`. `DB_DRIVER` selects `better-sqlite3`, `mysql2`, or `node-postgres`; migrations live in matching directories under `packages/db/migrations/`. Apply schema behavior consistently across all supported drivers unless the task is explicitly driver-specific.
+
+### Widgets
+
+`packages/widgets/src/registry.ts` owns the explicit widget-module and component-loader registries. `packages/widgets/src/manifest.ts` caches those loaders and exposes definitions, components, and combined resources. Widget modules use `createWidgetDefinition` and typed option builders. Data commonly comes from tRPC queries or Redis-backed cron results. Use existing shared widget components before creating local variants.
+
+### Integrations
+
+`packages/definitions/src/integration.ts` owns `integrationDefs` and `IntegrationKind`. `packages/integrations/src/base/creator.ts` owns `createIntegrationAsync`; concrete integrations implement the shared base contract. Keep credentials and permission checks on server-owned paths.
+
+### Cron jobs
+
+Jobs live in `packages/cron-jobs/src/jobs/` and use `createCronJob`. `apps/tasks` initializes and starts the job group. Job results and status can flow through Redis and tRPC; the retired port-3002 management-API model is no longer part of the architecture.
+
+### Routing and localization
+
+User routes live below `apps/nextjs/src/app/[locale]/`; the locale segment does not add a URL prefix. Route groups organize home and board surfaces. Administrative routes live under `manage`, Custom Widget configuration has a token route, and Workshop has a management surface.
+
+### Custom Widgets and Workshop
+
+`packages/custom-widgets` owns the Custom JSX v2 contract. `packages/workshop` is the Homarr-side client/contract package; `apps/workshop` is the separate Go/PocketBase service. Use the `homarr-custom-widget` skill for authoring and security constraints.
+
+## Commands and conventions
+
+- Read current scripts from the root or package `package.json`; avoid caching commands that do not exist.
+- Use `pnpm dev` for Next.js, `pnpm dev:docs` for docs, and `pnpm dev:cli -- <args>` for the Go developer CLI.
+- Use `pnpm docker:dev:up` for the Redis development dependency.
+- Use package-filtered typechecks or focused tests for the touched behavior.
+- Use `~/*` only inside the Next.js app. Use public `@homarr/*` entrypoints across package boundaries.
+- Keep Mantine application styles separate from the Tailwind-based docs app.

+## Reuse workflow
+
+Before writing a utility, search both the public name and the behavior:
+
+```bash
+rg -n "export (const|function|class|type|interface)|export \*" packages/common
+rg -n "@homarr/common" apps packages

+```bash
+rg -n "<term>" apps/docs/docs apps/docs/src
+```
+
+## Follow existing typed patterns
+
+For an integration:
+
+- Add or update `apps/docs/docs/integrations/<slug>/index.ts` with the local `IntegrationDefinition` pattern.
+- Add or update `index.mdx` with the established `IntegrationHeader`, `IntegrationCapabilites`, and `IntegrationSecrets` components as applicable.
+- Reuse metadata from `@homarr/definitions` when the docs app already exposes it.
+
+For a widget:
+
+- Add or update `apps/docs/docs/widgets/<slug>/index.ts` with the local `WidgetDefinition` pattern.
+- Add or update `index.mdx` with the established `WidgetHeader`, `WidgetConfig`, and `AddingWidget` components as applicable.
+- Document options, required integrations, permissions, empty states, and changed behavior that affect setup or use.
+
+## Completion criteria
+
+1. Describe the shipped behavior, not an implementation plan.
+2. Keep names, defaults, paths, screenshots, links, and prerequisites consistent with code.
+3. Update every affected page and remove superseded guidance.
+4. Run the narrowest useful docs validation. Use `pnpm turbo build --filter=@homarr/docs` when links, MDX, generated definitions, or navigation can fail; otherwise run the docs package formatter on touched files.
+5. Treat broken links and anchors as failures; Docusaurus checks them strictly.

 # Homarr Custom Widget
 
-Author one widget at a time. When connected to Homarr, retrieve `homarr://custom-widgets/schema` and only the component resources needed for the design. The live resources are authoritative for the installed release.
+Author one widget or a coordinated set of widgets. Load only needed release-matched context. Run lifecycle tools alone; independent reads may run together. For a set, research once and finish each widget's validation, evidence, and persistence before the next.
 
-1. Read the API documentation.
-2. Create one credential-free widget with keyed `sources`, keyed `requests`, optional keyed `options`, and safe JSX `template`.
-3. Validate, preview, test queries and simulated actions, visually inspect, and iterate.
-4. Configure deployment-specific source URLs and request credentials through Homarr; never repeat plaintext.
-5. Save only after narrow/wide, light/dark, loading, empty, error, and success states work.
+1. Read primary API documentation. Use web search when documentation is not supplied or may have changed.
+2. Create credential-free definitions with keyed `sources`, `requests`, optional `options`, and safe JSX `template`.
+3. While drafting, use `customWidget_validateTemplate` for focused JSX diagnostics without resending the manifest.
+4. Send the definition once to `customWidget_previewCreate` and test its queries/actions. For a JSX-only fix, validate, call `customWidget_previewReviseTemplate` with its session, and retest; it inherits the manifest and resets evidence. Create a preview only for source/request/option changes.
+5. Configure deployment-specific source URLs and credentials through Homarr; never repeat plaintext.
+6. Persist each exact final tested preview with `customWidget_createFromPreview`. Do not resend a large definition through `customWidget_create` when a preview session is available.
 
-Use `{option:name}` or `$option` for saved options. Use `{param:name}` or `$param` for values supplied by `SubFetch`, `ActionButton`, or `ToggleSwitch`. Load queries cannot use invocation parameters. Templates read `data`, `status`, `options`, and temporary `inputs`.
+Treat a supplied sample or successful preview response as the binding contract. Render every core requested field, guard optional arrays and nested values before indexing, and do not silently drop returned items. Humanize numeric enums with indexed literal label arrays, omit absent numeric values instead of inventing zero, and label timestamp timezones. Give recoverable load errors and empty states a clear refresh or retry path.
 
-`SubFetch` with `trigger="manual"` renders its own load button. Pass a card or image through `triggerContent` with `triggerAriaLabel` when that content should launch the request. Its callback is `(result, meta)`; never author `onClick` or a fetch callback.
+Use `{option:name}` or `$option` for saved options. Use `{param:name}` or `$param` for values supplied by `SubFetch`, `ActionButton`, or `ToggleSwitch`. Load queries cannot use invocation parameters. Render load queries from `data` and `status` with `RefreshButton`; reserve `SubFetch` for manual parameterized queries. Templates read `data`, `status`, `options`, and temporary `inputs`.
 
-Use standard Mantine compound names and deliberate visual hierarchy, spacing, restrained semantic color, and responsive layouts. Avoid excessive nested cards.
+For a bound control that depends on another input, declare its default and set `resetKey` to that scalar dependency. For example, `<Pagination bind="page" defaultValue={1} resetKey={inputs.search} />` restores page 1 when a search changes without fetching by itself.
+
+`SubFetch` with `trigger="manual"` renders its own load button. Pass a card or image through `triggerContent` with `triggerAriaLabel` when that content should launch the request. Its callback is `(result, meta)`; callback names must not shadow the reserved roots `data`, `status`, `options`, or `inputs`. Never author `onClick` or a fetch callback. Use `Icon` or `TablerIcon` with a `name`; never invent an `IconFoo` component.
+
+Plan capabilities. Use one `customWidget_findComponents` search per job. Batch selected non-obvious binding or interaction documentation with `customWidget_getComponents`; reserve `customWidget_getComponent` for one unknown-prop repair. Failed validation reopens discovery; otherwise search only for a missing capability. The full catalog is for broad exploration; load at most one example. Context never limits composition. Prefer clear hierarchy, responsive grids, divided lists, and aligned actions over nested row cards.
+
+Do not simplify a useful workflow merely because the template is interpreted. Freely compose any supported installed components with multiple sources, requests, options, `choicesFrom`, bound filters, charts, responsive detail areas, manual queries, and safe actions when they improve the user's job. Complexity must remain purposeful rather than decorative.
+
+Polish with a divided list or responsive media grid. Make one metric/action asymmetrically primary; keep headers compact, identity/state clear, metadata quiet, and one badge. At base artwork fills its row and caps above xs; never combine full-width media and nowrap.
+
+Make initial states actionable and wrap variable labels/values on narrow tiles. Do not use an unlabeled decorative icon as an empty state.
 
 Do not use imports, hooks, refs, raw HTML, raw event callbacks, browser requests, arbitrary functions, eval, bigint, npm packages, authored statement blocks, IIFEs, or recursion. Do not pretend MCP tools exist in an offline chat session.
 
-To install an existing widget, use `customWidget_workshopSearch`, inspect it with `customWidget_workshopGet`, then use `customWidget_workshopInstall`. Configure each self-hosted source afterward with `customWidget_sourceConfigure`, or call `customWidget_configurationRequestUser` so the user can enter the server URL and credentials directly in Homarr.
+For a community widget, use `customWidget_workshopSearch`, `customWidget_workshopGet`, then `customWidget_workshopInstall`; configure its source securely. Preview configuration expires, so create before persisting configuration.
 
-Preview-scoped configuration expires with the preview. To persist user-entered values for a new widget, create the widget first, request configuration for its definition ID, then create a final preview with that definition ID so Homarr loads the stored credentials.
+Reference routing:
 
-When this skill is installed from the repository, optional offline details are in `references/schema.md`, `references/runtime.md`, and `references/security.md`. MCP-only clients should use the live Homarr resources instead.
+- Load `schema` once before a new manifest; otherwise only for concrete request or option ambiguity.
+- Load `runtime` for bound inputs, manual queries, actions, or other interaction.
+- Load `security` once for any authenticated source or mutation, or to resolve a URL or interpreter limitation.
+
+Repository installations expose these as files under `references/`. MCP clients can call `customWidget_getReference` or read `homarr://custom-widgets/references/{name}` instead of loading every reference.

+Templates read `data.requestId`, `status.requestId`, `options.name`, and temporary `inputs.name`. Status is `{ loading, ok, status, statusText, error }`. Render load queries directly from `data` and `status` with `RefreshButton`; never wrap them in `SubFetch`.
 
 `bind="search"` creates an in-memory input. It is never persisted. Supply invocation values only through `params`, for example:
 
 ```jsx
 <TextInput bind="search" label="Search" />
-<SubFetch requestId="search" params={{ query: inputs.search }}>
-  {(items) => <Stack>{(items ?? []).map(item => <Text key={item.id}>{item.name}</Text>)}</Stack>}
+<Pagination bind="page" resetKey={inputs.search} defaultValue={1} total={5} />
+<SubFetch requestId="search" trigger="manual" params={{ query: inputs.search }}>
+  {(result) => <Stack>{(result.results ?? []).map(item => <Text key={item.id}>{item.name}</Text>)}</Stack>}
 </SubFetch>
 ```
 
-`SubFetch` with `trigger="manual"` renders its own load button. To make a card or image launch the request, pass that node through `triggerContent` and provide `triggerAriaLabel`; Homarr supplies the click and keyboard behavior. Its optional second callback argument contains `{ ok, status, statusText, loading: false }`; loading and request failures are rendered by `SubFetch` before the callback runs. Do not author `onClick` or a fetch callback.
+Manual queries require `trigger: "manual"` on request and `SubFetch`; otherwise they run automatically. `triggerContent` with `triggerAriaLabel` makes custom content the launcher. `SubFetch` owns loading/error/retry; its child receives success plus `{ ok, status, statusText, loading: false }`. Never author `onClick` or fetch callbacks.
 
-Use expression callbacks for supported collection methods and trusted slots. Do not use callback blocks, IIFEs, authored recursion, or raw events. Bounded regex literals work only with safe string matching/replacement operations.
+`SubFetch`, `ActionButton`, and `ToggleSwitch` need literal `requestId`; validation rejects missing/computed IDs.
+
+Inside a successful manual result, `<RefreshButton requestId="search" label="Run again" />` reruns the same parameters.
+
+When a manual SubFetch request ID, parameters, or effective definition changes, Homarr immediately hides its prior result and returns to the trigger. It cannot fetch the new parameters until the user triggers it again.
+
+The `SubFetch` callback receives the entire JSON response exactly as previewed. If the response is `{ "results": [...] }`, render and map `result.results`; never map the envelope itself. Trace every rendered field from the preview response before persistence.
+
+Format timestamps with safe static helpers; never use `new Date`. Never invent a formatter component. Use `Date.toLocaleString(value, "en-US", "UTC")` plus a visible `UTC` label. Also available: `Date.toISOString`, `Date.toLocaleDateString`, and `Date.toLocaleTimeString`.
+
+For compact numeric enums, index a literal label array with a fallback:
+
+```jsx
+<Text>{["Unknown", "Pending", "Ready"][(item.status ?? 1) - 1] ?? "Unknown"}</Text>
+```
+
+Every stateful control must use `bind`, and its `inputs.<name>` value must feed a supported request/helper when it is meant to change remote data. For dependent pagination, declare `defaultValue={1}` and use `resetKey={inputs.search}` to restore page 1 when the query changes. If a control cannot affect the workflow through a binding, option, or runtime helper, render concise context instead of a dead control.
+
+Callback parameters must not shadow the reserved roots `data`, `status`, `options`, or `inputs`. Use `<Icon name="refresh" />` or `<TablerIcon name="refresh" />`; never invent components such as `<IconFoo />`.
+
+Use expression callbacks for supported collections and trusted slots. No callback blocks, IIFEs, authored recursion, or raw events. Regex is limited to safe string operations.

+description: Expose Homarr tRPC procedures safely through MCP. Use when adding or changing tRPC procedures under packages/api, adding MCP metadata, registering an eager MCP router, shaping tool inputs and descriptions, or reviewing MCP authorization, sensitive data, and destructive actions.
+---
+
+# MCP Integration
+
+Expose a procedure only when an AI client should call it. Preserve the procedure's existing authorization and add MCP-specific safeguards for sensitive or destructive behavior.
+
+## Assess exposure
+
+Prefer:
+
+- Data queries: list, search, get, health, stats, and summaries.
+- User-requested actions with explicit permission checks and bounded inputs.
+- Serializable results that do not reveal credentials or internal-only state.
+
+Skip subscriptions, session/onboarding internals, file streams, blobs, credential values, and procedures whose authorization or audit behavior is unclear. Ask for a security review when a mutation is destructive, tenant boundaries are ambiguous, or returned data is sensitive.
+
+## Add metadata
+
+Place `.meta()` before `.input()` and `.query()` or `.mutation()`:
+
+```typescript
+getAll: protectedProcedure
+  .meta({
+    mcp: {
+      enabled: true,
+      description: "List resources the current user can access, including stable IDs used by resource_get",
+    },
+  })
+  .input(z.object({ limit: z.number().int().min(1).max(100).default(50) }))
+  .query(async ({ ctx, input }) => {
+    // Preserve normal procedure authorization.
+  });
+```
+
+No-input procedures can omit `.input()`; the MCP extractor accepts an empty object for them.
+
+For mutations, state the effect and required permission in the description:
+
+```typescript
+remove: permissionRequiredProcedure
+  .meta({
+    mcp: {
+      enabled: true,
+      description: "Delete one resource by ID. Requires full access; get the ID from resource_all",
+    },
+  })
+  .input(z.object({ id: z.string() }))
+  .mutation(async ({ ctx, input }) => {
+    // Perform the permission-scoped action.
+  });
+```
+
+## Write discoverable descriptions
+
+Include every item that applies:
+
+- What the tool returns or changes.
+- Supported integrations or services.
+- Required IDs and the tool that returns them.
+- Permission requirements and the meaning of permission fields.
+- Important bounds, confirmation semantics, or irreversible effects.
+
+Use precise domain language. A description such as `Get calendar events` is insufficient because it omits supported services, required IDs, and result scope.
+
+## Shape inputs for clients
+
+- Use a top-level `z.object({...})` for parameterized tools.
+- Bound strings, arrays, numeric ranges, pagination, and payload sizes.
+- Use defaults where a safe, unsurprising value exists.
+- Prefer explicit fields over a top-level union or discriminated union.
+- Keep identifiers stable and describe how to obtain them.
+- Keep secrets out of inputs unless the procedure is explicitly a credential-configuration flow with server-owned encryption and non-return guarantees.
+
+## Register the eager router
+
+The application router in `packages/api/src/root.ts` is lazy. MCP tool extraction is synchronous, so add an eager import and registration in `packages/api/src/mcp.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import { resourceRouter } from "./router/resource";
+
+export const mcpRouter = createTRPCRouter({
+  resource: resourceRouter,
+});
+```
+
+Register the smallest router that owns the enabled procedures. If a parent router uses `lazy()`, import the needed subrouter directly. Metadata on a procedure is not enough; a procedure absent from `mcpRouter` is not exposed.
+
+## Validate the tool surface
+
+1. Confirm the procedure still enforces its ordinary auth and permission boundary.
+2. Confirm `packages/api/src/mcp.ts` eagerly includes the procedure.
+3. Confirm the generated tool name, description, and JSON schema are unambiguous.
+4. Run the focused API MCP spec when the tool list or extraction changes: `pnpm test packages/api/src/test/mcp.spec.ts`.
+5. Run the focused route spec when protocol or transport behavior changes: `pnpm test apps/nextjs/src/app/api/mcp/[transport]/route.spec.ts`.
+6. If manually probing `/api/mcp/<transport>`, use a scoped API key and avoid printing credentials or secret-bearing results.

-## Three Runtime Services
-
-| Service | Port | Role |
-|---------|------|------|
-| Next.js | 3000 | Main web app (SSR + API routes) |
-| WebSocket | 3001 | tRPC subscriptions via `ws` |
-| Tasks | 3002 | Cron job runner + management API via Fastify |
-
-In Docker, nginx listens on **7575** and proxies to all three. The tasks service authenticates via `CRON_JOB_API_KEY` header.
-
-## Package Dependency Layers
-
-1. **Foundation**: `core` (env, DB drivers, Redis client, logging) → no `@homarr` deps
-2. **Domain**: `definitions` → `common` → `core`
-3. **Data**: `db` → `core`, `definitions`, `common`
-4. **Auth**: `auth` → `db`, `definitions`, `core`, `validation`
-5. **Cross-cutting**: `translation`, `validation`, `redis`, `server-settings`
-6. **Feature backends**: `integrations`, `request-handler`, `cron-jobs`, `docker`, `ping`
-7. **API surface**: `api` → pulls in auth, db, redis, integrations, etc.
-8. **UI stack**: `ui`, `modals`, `form`, `notifications`, `boards`, `spotlight`
-9. **Composed features**: `widgets`, `modals-collection`, `forms-collection`
-
-## Key Patterns
-
-### tRPC
-
-- **Server caller** (RSC): `import { api } from "@homarr/api/server"` → cached caller with auth context
-- **Client hooks**: `import { clientApi } from "@homarr/api/client"` → React Query hooks
-- **Router structure**: `packages/api/src/root.ts` defines top-level namespaces (`user`, `board`, `widget`, `integration`, `docker`, `kubernetes`, etc.)
-- **Procedures**: `publicProcedure`, `protectedProcedure`, `permissionRequiredProcedure`, `onboardingProcedure`
-- **WebSocket subscriptions**: Client uses `wsLink` when `type === "subscription"`, connects to port 3001
-
-### Multi-Database Support
-
-Drizzle schemas exist in three parallel implementations:
-- `packages/db/schema/sqlite.ts`
-- `packages/db/schema/mysql.ts`
-- `packages/db/schema/postgresql.ts`
-
-Selected at runtime via `DB_DRIVER` env (`better-sqlite3` | `mysql2` | `node-postgres`). Migrations are per-engine in `packages/db/migrations/{sqlite,mysql,postgresql}/`.
-
-### Widget System
-
-Widgets are registered in `packages/widgets/src/index.tsx` as `widgetImports` (must satisfy `Record<WidgetKind, ...>`). Each widget:
-- Has a `definition` created via `createWidgetDefinition(kind, { icon, createOptions, supportedIntegrations? })`
-- Uses `optionsBuilder.from(factory => ({ ... }))` for typed options
-- Loads dynamically via `next/dynamic`
-- Fetches data via tRPC client hooks (backed by cron job caches)
-
-### Integration System
-
-Integrations are defined in `packages/definitions/src/integration.ts` (`integrationDefs`) and instantiated via `createIntegrationAsync` in `packages/integrations/src/base/creator.ts`. Each extends abstract `Integration` class with `testConnectionAsync` and typed methods.
-
-### Cron Job System
-
-Jobs defined in `packages/cron-jobs/src/jobs/`. Each job:
-- Uses `createCronJob` with a cron expression
-- Publishes results to Redis channels
-- Widget subscriptions consume those channels via tRPC subscriptions
-- Job management (start/stop/trigger) via `cronJobApi` HTTP client to port 3002
-
-### Modals
-
-Created with `createModal(component).withOptions({ defaultTitle })` from `@homarr/modals`. Opened via `useModalAction(SomeModal)`. Feature modals live in `packages/modals-collection/`.
-
-### Forms
-
-`useZodForm` from `@homarr/form` wraps Mantine `useForm` with zod validation. Shared form UIs in `packages/forms-collection/`.
-
-### Routing (App Router)
-
-- `apps/nextjs/src/app/[locale]/` — all UI routes under locale segment
-- Route groups: `(home)`, `(content)`, `(board)` — don't affect URLs
-- Key routes: `boards/[name]`, `manage/...` (admin), `auth/login`, `init` (onboarding), `widgets/[kind]`
-- Locale driven by cookie (no URL prefix)
-
-### Auth Providers
-
-Configured via `AUTH_PROVIDERS` env. Supports: `credentials` (local), `ldap`, `oidc`. Database sessions with httpOnly cookies. API key auth for programmatic access.
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-Key env vars (from `.env.example`):
-- `DB_DRIVER`: `better-sqlite3` | `mysql2` | `node-postgres`
-- `DB_URL`: Database connection string
-- `AUTH_SECRET`: NextAuth secret
-- `SECRET_ENCRYPTION_KEY`: AES-256-CBC for integration secrets
-- `AUTH_PROVIDERS`: Comma-separated (`credentials`, `ldap`, `oidc`)
-- `CRON_JOB_API_KEY`: Shared key between Next.js and tasks service
-- `REDIS_*`: Redis connection (host, port, password)
-- `ENABLE_KUBERNETES`: Optional Kubernetes integration
-
-## Development Commands
-
-- `pnpm dev` — runs all three services in parallel via Turborepo
-- `pnpm docker:dev` — starts Redis + MySQL + PostgreSQL containers
-- `pnpm db:push` — push schema to SQLite (dev)
-- `pnpm db:studio` — Drizzle Studio
-- `pnpm test` — Vitest unit tests
-- `pnpm test:e2e` — Playwright E2E
-- `pnpm lint` / `pnpm format` — oxlint + oxfmt
-- `pnpm dev:docs` — Docusaurus docs site (port 3003)
-- `pnpm typecheck` — tsc --noEmit across all packages
-
-## Conventions
-
-- Workspace packages use `@homarr/` scope
-- All versions managed via pnpm `catalog:` in workspace
-- Path alias `~/*` → `./src/*` in Next.js app
-- Mantine for all UI (no Tailwind) — primary color is red, `autoContrast: true`
-- Icons from `@tabler/icons-react`
-- Drag-and-drop via `@dnd-kit/*`
-- `typescript.ignoreBuildErrors: true` in next.config (types checked separately via `typecheck`)
-- `serverExternalPackages`: `dockerode`, `isomorphic-dompurify`, `jsdom`
-
-## Documentation (`apps/docs`)
-
-Docusaurus 3 site at `apps/docs/`, package name `@homarr/docs`.
-
-- Run with `pnpm dev:docs` from root
-- Build with `pnpm turbo build --filter=@homarr/docs`
-- Uses Tailwind CSS 3 for custom pages (not Mantine)
-- Imports `@homarr/definitions` for type-safe integration/widget metadata
-- When adding or modifying widgets, integrations, cron jobs, API routes, env vars, or user-facing features, you MUST also update corresponding docs in `apps/docs/docs/`
-- Integration docs: `apps/docs/docs/integrations/<slug>/index.mdx` + `index.ts`
-- Widget docs: `apps/docs/docs/widgets/<slug>/index.mdx` + `index.ts`
-- Strict link checking: broken links/anchors cause build failure

-# Documentation Sync Rule
-
-When modifying code that affects user-facing behavior, you MUST also update the documentation in `apps/docs/`.
-
-## What triggers a doc update
-
-| Code change | Doc location |
-|---|---|
-| New integration | `apps/docs/docs/integrations/<slug>/index.mdx` + `index.ts` |
-| New widget | `apps/docs/docs/widgets/<slug>/index.mdx` + `index.ts` |
-| Changed API surface | `apps/docs/docs/management/api.mdx` |
-| New/changed env vars | `apps/docs/docs/advanced/` |
-| New CLI commands | `apps/docs/docs/advanced/command-line/` |
-| Changed auth providers | `apps/docs/docs/advanced/` SSO pages |
-| UI/UX changes | Relevant getting-started or management pages |
-| New cron job | `apps/docs/docs/management/tasks.mdx` |
-| Changed permissions | `apps/docs/docs/management/users.mdx` |
-
-## Integration doc pattern
-
-Each integration has a folder under `apps/docs/docs/integrations/<slug>/`:
-
-- `index.ts` — exports a typed `IntegrationDefinition` with name, description, iconUrl, path
-- `index.mdx` — uses shared components: `IntegrationHeader`, `IntegrationCapabilites`, `IntegrationSecrets`
-- Import metadata from `@homarr/definitions` where possible
-
-## Widget doc pattern
-
-Each widget has a folder under `apps/docs/docs/widgets/<slug>/`:
-
-- `index.ts` — exports a typed `WidgetDefinition` with icon, name, description, path, configuration
-- `index.mdx` — uses shared components: `WidgetHeader`, `WidgetConfig`, `WidgetAdding`
-
-## Development
-
-- Run docs locally: `pnpm dev:docs` from root
-- Build docs: `pnpm turbo build --filter=@homarr/docs`
-- The docs app can import from `@homarr/definitions` for type-safe integration/widget metadata
-- Docusaurus strict mode throws on broken links — fix any broken references before committing

-# Migrating Tables from mantine-react-table to mantine-datatable
-
-This document captures every pattern, fix, and decision from the downloads widget rework (PR #6430). Use it as a playbook when porting other tables.
-
-## Migration Candidates
-
-Current `mantine-react-table` consumers that could be migrated:
-
-**Widgets (in `packages/widgets/`):**
-- `docker/component.tsx` — Docker container table
-- `media-server/component.tsx` — Media server sessions
-
-**Admin pages (in `apps/nextjs/src/app/[locale]/manage/`):**
-- `tools/docker/docker-table.tsx`
-- `tools/tasks/_components/tasks-table.tsx`
-- `tools/api/components/api-keys.tsx`
-- `users/_components/user-list.tsx`
-- `users/invites/_components/invite-list.tsx`
-- `tools/kubernetes/` — 8 Kubernetes resource tables
-
-**Modals:**
-- `packages/modals-collection/src/search-engines/request-media-modal.tsx`
-
-**Shared hook to remove once all migrated:**
-- `packages/ui/src/hooks/use-translated-mantine-react-table.ts`

-
-## 1. Core Migration: mantine-react-table → mantine-datatable
-
-### Import changes
-
-```typescript
-// BEFORE
-import { MantineReactTable, useMantineReactTable } from "mantine-react-table";
-import type { MRT_ColumnDef } from "mantine-react-table";
-
-// AFTER
-import { DataTable, useDataTableColumns } from "mantine-datatable";
-import type { DataTableColumn, DataTableSortStatus } from "mantine-datatable";
-```
-
-### Column definition shape
-
-```typescript
-// BEFORE (MRT)
-const columns: MRT_ColumnDef<MyRow>[] = [
-  {
-    accessorKey: "name",
-    header: "Name",
-    size: 200,
-    enableSorting: true,
-    Cell: ({ row }) => <Text>{row.original.name}</Text>,
-  },
-];
-
-// AFTER (mantine-datatable)
-const columns: DataTableColumn<MyRow>[] = [
-  {
-    accessor: "name",           // not accessorKey
-    title: "Name",              // not header
-    width: 200,                 // not size
-    sortable: true,             // not enableSorting
-    render: (record) => <Text>{record.name}</Text>,  // not Cell
-  },
-];
-```
-
-Key differences:
-- `accessorKey` → `accessor`
-- `header` → `title`
-- `size` → `width`
-- `Cell: ({ row }) =>` → `render: (record) =>`
-- `enableSorting` → `sortable`
-- `enableColumnActions` → does not exist (no column action menus)
-- `mantineTableBodyCellProps` → `cellsStyle` in `defaultColumnProps`
-
-### Table component
-
-```typescript
-// BEFORE
-const table = useTranslatedMantineReactTable({ columns, data, ... });
-return <MantineReactTable table={table} />;
-
-// AFTER
-return (
-  <DataTable
-    records={data}
-    columns={columns}
-    sortStatus={sortStatus}
-    onSortStatusChange={setSortStatus}
-    ...
-  />
-);
-```
-
-### Sorting is manual
-
-mantine-datatable does NOT sort for you. You must sort the data yourself:
-
-```typescript
-const [sortStatus, setSortStatus] = useState<DataTableSortStatus<MyRow>>({
-  columnAccessor: "name",
-  direction: "asc",
-});
-
-const sortedData = useMemo(() => {
-  const mult = sortStatus.direction === "desc" ? -1 : 1;
-  return [...data].toSorted((a, b) => {
-    const aVal = a[sortStatus.columnAccessor];
-    const bVal = b[sortStatus.columnAccessor];
-    if (typeof aVal === "string") return aVal.localeCompare(bVal as string) * mult;
-    return ((aVal as number) - (bVal as number)) * mult;
-  });
-}, [data, sortStatus]);
-
-// Pass sortedData to records, not data
-<DataTable records={sortedData} sortStatus={sortStatus} onSortStatusChange={setSortStatus} />
-```
-
----
-
-## 2. Making Tables Transparent (Widget Context)
-
-Widgets sit inside board cards that have user-controlled opacity. The table must be fully transparent so the card background shows through. mantine-datatable defaults to `var(--mantine-color-body)` which is opaque.
-
-Create a CSS file alongside the component:
-
-```css
-/* styles.css */
-.my-table,
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table,
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table thead,
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table tbody,
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table tfoot,
-.my-table th,
-.my-table td {
-  background-color: transparent !important;
-}
-
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table tr {
-  background-color: transparent;
-}
-
-/* Hover: translucent instead of opaque */
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-table tbody tr:hover {
-  background-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--mantine-color-default-hover) 40%, transparent) !important;
-}
-
-/* Headers: frosted glass effect */
-.my-table th {
-  white-space: nowrap;
-  background-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--mantine-color-body) 60%, transparent) !important;
-  backdrop-filter: blur(8px);
-}
-
-/* Cell overflow */
-.my-table td {
-  white-space: nowrap;
-  overflow: hidden;
-  text-overflow: ellipsis;
-}
-
-/* Hide sort icon until hover */
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-header-cell-sortable-icon {
-  opacity: 0;
-  transition: opacity 150ms;
-}
-.my-table th:hover .mantine-datatable-header-cell-sortable-icon {
-  opacity: 1;
-}
-
-/* Row expansion area */
-.my-table .mantine-datatable-row-expansion-cell {
-  background-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--mantine-color-body) 40%, transparent) !important;
-}
-```
-
-Import it: `import "./styles.css";` and apply via `className="my-table"`.
-
----
-
-## 3. Responsive Column Visibility
-
-Use a lookup table of width breakpoints instead of media queries. The widget receives `width` as a prop.
-
-```typescript
-interface SizeConfig {
-  fontSize: "xs" | "sm";
-  iconSize: number;
-  cellPadding: number;
-  showSpeedColumns: boolean;
-  showTimeColumn: boolean;
-  showStateColumn: boolean;
-}
-
-const SIZE_BREAKPOINTS: { maxWidth: number; config: SizeConfig }[] = [
-  { maxWidth: 300, config: { fontSize: "xs", iconSize: 12, cellPadding: 2, showSpeedColumns: false, showTimeColumn: false, showStateColumn: false } },
-  { maxWidth: 500, config: { fontSize: "xs", iconSize: 14, cellPadding: 4, showSpeedColumns: false, showTimeColumn: true, showStateColumn: false } },
-];
-
-const DEFAULT_SIZE_CONFIG: SizeConfig = { fontSize: "sm", iconSize: 14, cellPadding: 4, showSpeedColumns: true, showTimeColumn: true, showStateColumn: true };
-
-function getSizeConfig(width: number): SizeConfig {
-  for (const { maxWidth, config } of SIZE_BREAKPOINTS) {
-    if (width < maxWidth) return config;
-  }
-  return DEFAULT_SIZE_CONFIG;
-}
-
-// Usage: memoize it
-const size = useMemo(() => getSizeConfig(width), [width]);
-```
-
-Then use a visibility check lookup table for columns:
-
-```typescript
-const columnVisibilityChecks: Partial<Record<string, (ctx: ColumnContext) => boolean>> = {
-  upSpeed: (ctx) => ctx.hasTorrents && ctx.size.showSpeedColumns,
-  downSpeed: (ctx) => ctx.size.showSpeedColumns,
-  time: (ctx) => ctx.size.showTimeColumn,
-  state: (ctx) => ctx.size.showStateColumn,
-};
-
-function shouldIncludeColumn(accessor: string, ctx: ColumnContext): boolean {
-  if (!ctx.optionsColumnSet.has(accessor)) return false;
-  const check = columnVisibilityChecks[accessor];
-  if (check && !check(ctx)) return false;
-  return true;
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## 4. Column Persistence (Drag/Resize → Server)
-
-`useDataTableColumns` stores column order and widths in localStorage by default. For widgets, this must persist server-side so it works across devices.
-
-### Hidden widget options
-
-In `index.ts`, add hidden text options:
-
-```typescript
-columnOrder: factory.text({ defaultValue: "" }),
-columnWidths: factory.text({ defaultValue: "" }),
-```
-
-With visibility override:
-
-```typescript
-{
-  columnOrder: { shouldHide: () => true },
-  columnWidths: { shouldHide: () => true },
-}
-```
-
-### Translation keys required
-
-Even hidden options need translation keys or the translation test fails:
-
-```json
-"widget.mywidget.option.columnOrder.label": "Column order",
-"widget.mywidget.option.columnWidths.label": "Column widths"
-```
-
-### Old-import mappings
-
-Add to `packages/old-import/src/widgets/options.ts`:
-
-```typescript
-columnOrder: () => undefined,
-columnWidths: () => undefined,
-```
-
-### Dynamic storeKey
-
-Use a key that includes `itemId` and sorted column names. This prevents cross-widget localStorage bleeding:
-
-```typescript
-const storeKey = `mytable-${itemId ?? "preview"}-${[...options.columns].toSorted().join(",")}`;
-```
-
-### Hydration from server → localStorage
-
-On mount, seed `useDataTableColumns` with server-persisted values. Use a `hydrated` ref to prevent the persist effect from immediately writing defaults back:
-
-```typescript
-const { effectiveColumns, columnsOrder, columnsWidth, setColumnsOrder, setMultipleColumnWidths } =
-  useDataTableColumns<MyRow>({ key: storeKey, columns });
-
-const lastStoreKey = useRef(storeKey);
-const hydrated = useRef(false);
-
-useEffect(() => {
-  if (lastStoreKey.current !== storeKey) {
-    lastStoreKey.current = storeKey;
-    hydrated.current = false;
-  }
-  if (hydrated.current) return;
-  if (savedOrder.length > 0) setColumnsOrder(savedOrder);
-  if (Object.keys(savedWidths).length > 0) {
-    setMultipleColumnWidths(
-      Object.entries(savedWidths).map(([accessor, w]) => ({ accessor, width: w })),
-    );
-  }
-  requestAnimationFrame(() => { hydrated.current = true; });
-}, [storeKey, savedOrder, savedWidths, setColumnsOrder, setMultipleColumnWidths]);
-```
-
-### Persist localStorage → server
-
-Watch for changes and write back:
-
-```typescript
-const prevOrder = useRef(columnsOrder);
-const prevWidths = useRef(columnsWidth);
-
-useEffect(() => {
-  if (!hydrated.current) return;
-  const orderChanged = JSON.stringify(columnsOrder) !== JSON.stringify(prevOrder.current);
-  const widthsChanged = JSON.stringify(columnsWidth) !== JSON.stringify(prevWidths.current);
-  prevOrder.current = columnsOrder;
-  prevWidths.current = columnsWidth;
-
-  if (!orderChanged && !widthsChanged) return;
-
-  if (orderChanged) persistOption({ columnOrder: JSON.stringify(columnsOrder) });
-  if (widthsChanged) {
-    const widthMap: Record<string, number> = {};
-    for (const entry of columnsWidth) {
-      const key = Object.keys(entry)[0];
-      if (!key) continue;
-      const w = entry[key as keyof typeof entry];
-      if (typeof w === "number") widthMap[key] = w;
-      else if (typeof w === "string" && w.endsWith("px")) widthMap[key] = parseInt(w, 10);
-    }
-    persistOption({ columnWidths: JSON.stringify(widthMap) });
-  }
-}, [columnsOrder, columnsWidth, persistOption]);
-```
-
-The `persistOption` helper calls both `setOptions` (local state) and `saveItemOptions` (server mutation).
-
----
-
-## 5. Context Menu (Right-Click)
-
-Do NOT install `mantine-contextmenu`. Use Mantine's `Menu` + `Portal` directly:
-
-```typescript
-interface ContextMenuState {
-  x: number;
-  y: number;
-  item: MyRow;
-}
-
-const [contextMenu, setContextMenu] = useState<ContextMenuState | null>(null);
-
-const handleContextMenu = useCallback(
-  ({ record, event }: { record: MyRow; event: React.MouseEvent }) => {
-    event.preventDefault();
-    setContextMenu({ x: event.clientX, y: event.clientY, item: record });
-  },
-  [],
-);
-
-// On DataTable:
-<DataTable onRowContextMenu={handleContextMenu} />
-
-// Render:
-{contextMenu && <RowContextMenu state={contextMenu} onClose={closeContextMenu} />}
-```
-
-The menu component uses `Portal` for correct z-index:
-
-```tsx
-function RowContextMenu({ state, onClose }: { state: ContextMenuState; onClose: () => void }) {
-  return (
-    <Portal>
-      <Menu opened onClose={onClose} closeOnItemClick={false} position="right-start" offset={0}>
-        <Menu.Target>
-          <Box style={{ position: "fixed", left: state.x, top: state.y, width: 0, height: 0 }} />
-        </Menu.Target>
-        <Menu.Dropdown>
-          <Menu.Item onClick={() => { /* action */ onClose(); }}>Action</Menu.Item>
-        </Menu.Dropdown>
-      </Menu>
-    </Portal>
-  );
-}
-```
-
-**Key fix:** Use `closeOnItemClick={false}` if any menu item needs a two-step confirmation (like delete → confirm). Close the menu on scroll: `onScroll={() => { if (contextMenu) closeContextMenu(); }}`.
-
----
-
-## 6. Row Expansion
-
-```typescript
-<DataTable
-  rowExpansion={{
-    trigger: "click",
-    allowMultiple: true,
-    collapseProps: {
-      transitionDuration: 200,
-      animateOpacity: true,
-      transitionTimingFunction: "ease-out",
-    },
-    content: ({ record, collapse }) => <ExpandedRow item={record} collapse={collapse} />,
-  }}
-/>
-```
-
-**Critical:** Do NOT set `onRowClick` when using `rowExpansion` with `trigger: "click"`. They conflict and the expansion won't work.
-
----
-
-## 7. Common Pitfalls & Fixes
-
-### Status indicator dots
-
-Don't use `<Badge variant="dot" />` without children — it renders a pill with empty space. Use a plain `Box`:
-
-```tsx
-<Box
-  w={8}
-  h={8}
-  style={{
-    borderRadius: "50%",
-    backgroundColor: `var(--mantine-color-${color}-filled)`,
-    flexShrink: 0,
-  }}
-/>
-```
-
-### Tooltip overflow on long text columns
-
-When a column has `ellipsis: true`, the tooltip target element can still extend beyond the cell bounds if inner elements don't clip. Fix:
-
-```tsx
-<Tooltip position="bottom-start" ...>
-  <Group style={{ overflow: "hidden" }}>
-    ...
-  </Group>
-</Tooltip>
-```
-
-Use `position="bottom-start"` instead of `position="right"` so the tooltip never escapes the widget horizontally.
-
-### Dark mode tooltips
-
-Mantine tooltips default to the theme's tooltip color which may be white in light mode and stay white in dark mode. Always set `color="dark"` on informational tooltips inside widgets.
-
-### Division by zero
-
-Guard all ratio calculations:
-
-```typescript
-if (item.size > 0) ratio = item.sent / item.size;
-if (totalDown > 0) ratio = totalUp / totalDown;
-```
-
-### Composite idAccessor
-
-When rows can come from multiple integrations, IDs may collide. Use a composite key:
-
-```typescript
-idAccessor={(record) => `${record.integration.id}:${record.id}`}
-```
-
-### JSON option parsing
-
-Always wrap in try/catch:
-
-```typescript
-function parseJsonOption<T>(value: string | undefined, fallback: T): T {
-  if (!value) return fallback;
-  try { return JSON.parse(value) as T; }
-  catch { return fallback; }
-}
-```
-
-### Clipboard API
-
-`navigator.clipboard.writeText()` can throw in non-HTTPS contexts. Always catch:
-
-```typescript
-void navigator.clipboard.writeText(text).catch(() => {});
-```
-
-### Sync sortStatus with widget options
-
-If the widget has configurable default sort, sync it:
-
-```typescript
-useEffect(() => {
-  setSortStatus({ columnAccessor: options.defaultSort, direction: defaultSortDirection });
-}, [options.defaultSort, defaultSortDirection]);
-```
-
----
-
-## 8. Accessibility
-
-- All `ActionIcon` components need `aria-label`
-- Filter toggles (client badges, status badges) need `aria-pressed={isActive}`
-- `textSelectionDisabled` on DataTable prevents accidental text selection during drag/resize
-
----
-
-## 9. Error Handling
-
-- Every mutation needs an `onError` callback with `showErrorNotification`
-- The `saveItemOptions` mutation (column persistence) also needs `onError`
-- Check `isError` on the main query and show a fallback UI
-- Use a shared `mutationOptions` object to avoid repeating `onSettled`/`onError`:
-
-```typescript
-const mutationOptions = {
-  onSettled: () => void utils.myQuery.invalidate(),
-  onError: () => showErrorNotification({ title: t("errors.actionFailed"), message: t("errors.actionFailedMessage") }),
-};
-```
-
----
-
-## 10. i18n
-
-- No hardcoded strings. Every user-visible string goes through `useScopedI18n`
-- Column titles: `t("items.{accessor}.columnTitle")`
-- Detail labels: `t("items.{accessor}.detailsTitle")`
-- States: `t("states.{state}")`
-- Actions: `t("actions.{action}")`
-- Errors: `t("errors.{errorKey}")`
-- Hidden options still need `.label` translation keys
-
----
-
-## 11. Edit Mode
-
-Disable pointer events on the table during edit mode to prevent conflicts with the board's drag-and-drop:
-
-```typescript
-let tablePointerEvents: React.CSSProperties["pointerEvents"];
-if (isEditMode) tablePointerEvents = "none";
-
-let rowContextMenuHandler = handleContextMenu;
-if (isEditMode) rowContextMenuHandler = undefined;
-
-<DataTable style={{ pointerEvents: tablePointerEvents }} />
-```
-
----
-
-## 12. DataTable Props Reference (Commonly Used)
-
-```typescript
-<DataTable
-  records={sortedData}
-  columns={effectiveColumns}
-  storeColumnsKey={storeKey}
-  withTableBorder={false}
-  borderRadius={0}
-  highlightOnHover
-  striped="odd"
-  stripedColor={{ dark: "dark.7", light: "gray.0" }}
-  highlightOnHoverColor={{ dark: "dark.5", light: "gray.1" }}
-  verticalAlign="center"
-  fetching={isFetching && data.length === 0}
-  loaderBackgroundBlur={2}
-  fz={size.fontSize}
-  textSelectionDisabled
-  sortStatus={sortStatus}
-  onSortStatusChange={setSortStatus}
-  noRecordsText={t("errors.noItems")}
-  idAccessor={(record) => record.uniqueKey}
-  height="100%"
-  className="my-table"
-  defaultColumnProps={{
-    noWrap: true,
-    draggable: true,
-    resizable: true,
-    cellsStyle: () => ({ padding: `${size.cellPadding}px 8px` }),
-  }}
-  scrollAreaProps={{ type: "auto", scrollbarSize: 6 }}
-  rowBackgroundColor={(record) => conditionalBgMap[record.state]}
-  onRowContextMenu={handleContextMenu}
-  rowExpansion={{ ... }}
-  onScroll={() => { if (contextMenu) closeContextMenu(); }}
-/>
-```
-
----
-
-## 13. Layout Stability
-
-- Don't use `table-layout: fixed` — it fights mantine-datatable's resize logic
-- Give non-name columns explicit `width` values so only the name column flexes
-- Use `ellipsis: true` on the name column — it handles `text-overflow: ellipsis` internally
-- Names should truncate at the cell boundary, not a character count, so the layout is stable regardless of content length
-- `flexShrink: 0` on badges/icons prevents them from being squeezed by long names
-

-1. Replace imports (`mantine-react-table` → `mantine-datatable`)
-2. Convert column definitions (`accessorKey` → `accessor`, `header` → `title`, `Cell` → `render`, etc.)
-3. Implement manual sorting with `useState` + `useMemo`
-4. Add CSS file for transparent backgrounds (if widget context)
-5. Add responsive column visibility (if widget context)
-6. Add hidden options + hydration logic (if column persistence needed)
-7. Add old-import mappings for new options
-8. Add translation keys (including hidden option labels)
-9. Add context menu if row actions exist
-10. Add row expansion if detail view exists
-11. Add error handling on all mutations
-12. Add accessibility attributes
-13. Test at multiple widget widths
-14. Update docs in `apps/docs/docs/widgets/` if applicable
-15. Run `pnpm turbo typecheck` — catches old-import mismatches
-16. Run translation spec — catches missing keys

-description: How to expose tRPC procedures as MCP tools for AI clients
-globs: packages/api/src/router/**/*.ts

----
-
-# MCP Integration Guide
-
-Every new tRPC procedure that provides useful functionality should be exposed as an MCP tool so AI assistants (Claude, Cursor, etc.) can use it. This is a first-class feature of Homarr.
-
-## Adding MCP to a procedure
-
-Add `.meta({ mcp: { enabled: true, description: "..." } })` to the procedure chain:
-
-```typescript
-// Read-only tool (query)
-myProcedure: protectedProcedure
-  .meta({ mcp: { enabled: true, description: "Get all items with their status and metadata" } })
-  .input(z.object({ limit: z.number().default(50) }))
-  .query(async ({ ctx, input }) => { ... })
-
-// Write tool (mutation)
-myAction: protectedProcedure
-  .meta({ mcp: { enabled: true, description: "Delete an item by ID. Requires interact permission on the integration" } })
-  .input(z.object({ id: z.string() }))
-  .mutation(async ({ ctx, input }) => { ... })
-
-// No-input procedure (z.void) — works fine, no .input() needed
-getAll: protectedProcedure
-  .meta({ mcp: { enabled: true, description: "List all resources" } })
-  .query(async ({ ctx }) => { ... })
-```
-
-The `.meta()` call must come **before** `.input()` and `.query()`/`.mutation()` in the chain.
-
-## Writing good descriptions
-
-The description is the **only thing** an AI sees to decide when and how to use the tool. Write it like you're explaining to a colleague who has never used Homarr.
-
-**Must include:**
-- What the tool returns or does
-- Which integrations/services it works with (if applicable)
-- How to get required IDs (e.g., "Use integration_all to get the integrationId")
-- Permission requirements (if non-obvious)
-
-**Good:**
-```
-"Get calendar events for upcoming and recent media releases. Fetches from all connected Sonarr (TV), Radarr (movies), Lidarr (music), and Readarr (books) integrations. Requires integrationIds from integration_all"
-```
-
-**Bad:**
-```
-"Get calendar events"
-```
-
-**For tools that return permission fields**, explain what they mean:
-```
-"List all integrations. Returns permissions.hasUseAccess (read) and permissions.hasInteractAccess (actions) — false means the API key lacks that permission, not an error"
-```
-
-## Registering in the MCP router
-
-After adding `.meta()` to procedures, you must register the router in `packages/api/src/mcp.ts`. This file uses **eager imports** (no `lazy()`) because MCP tool extraction requires synchronous access to all procedure definitions.
-
-```typescript
-// packages/api/src/mcp.ts
-import { myNewRouter } from "./router/my-new-feature";
-
-export const mcpRouter = createTRPCRouter({
-  // ... existing routers
-  myFeature: myNewRouter,
-});
-```
-
-**If your router is nested** (e.g., widget sub-routers), import and register the sub-router directly — do not import a parent that uses `lazy()`.
-
-## What to expose vs. what to skip
-
-**Expose:**
-- Data queries (list, search, get by ID)
-- Actions users would ask an AI to do (toggle, create, delete, approve)
-- Status checks (health, stats, summaries)
-
-**Skip:**
-- Subscriptions (WebSocket-only, not supported by MCP)
-- Internal procedures (session management, onboarding steps)
-- File upload/download procedures
-- Procedures that return non-serializable data (streams, blobs)
-
-## Input schema rules
-
-- Use `z.object({...})` for inputs — this maps cleanly to MCP tool parameters
-- `z.void()` (no `.input()`) works — the MCP handler patches these to accept empty objects
-- Avoid `z.union()` or `z.discriminatedUnion()` at the top level — AI clients struggle with these
-- Use `.default()` on optional fields so the AI doesn't need to guess values
-
-## Checklist for new features
-
-1. Add `.meta({ mcp: { enabled: true, description: "..." } })` to relevant procedures
-2. Import and register the router in `packages/api/src/mcp.ts` (eager, no lazy)
-3. Write descriptions that explain what the tool does, what it needs, and what it returns
-4. If the tool requires an ID from another tool, say which one in the description
-5. Test with `curl` against `/api/mcp/mcp` to verify the tool appears in `tools/list`

-## Anti-Patterns Verdict
-
-The surface does not look like obvious AI-generated decoration. Its visual restraint, familiar controls, and practical editor are credible product UI. The weakness is product behavior rather than styling: contradictory states, tiny action controls, an overloaded responsive toolbar, and a primary installation journey that is not explicit.
-
-The deterministic Impeccable scan returned zero findings for `apps/docs/src/components/workshop`. This is useful but incomplete. The detector did not catch runtime failures, semantic state conflicts, touch-target sizing, or responsive grouping. Browser evidence found a full route crash, React error 130, and an earlier state that rendered both `Something went wrong.` and `No submissions yet`.
-
-No visual overlay was injected because the available browser evaluation surface is read-only. Screenshots, DOM snapshots, console logs, and source inspection were used instead.
-
-## Overall Impression
-
-The submission modal is now one of the stronger parts of the Workshop. The store around it is not release-ready. The single biggest opportunity is to make discovery and installation a dependable, explicit path: load reliably, show one truthful state, help users evaluate a submission, and give them one obvious next action.
-
-## What Is Working
-
-1. The visual system is restrained and consistent with the Homarr documentation. Typography, color, radii, and spacing do not compete with the content.
-2. The submission flow chunks a complex task into Type, Details, and Media. The shared JSON/CSS editor, drag-and-drop import, metadata autofill, and capped media previews reduce creator effort.
-3. The detail design exposes revision, author, reports, changelog, source content, and comments. This supports inspection rather than treating community code as a blind install.
-
-## Priority Issues
-
-### P0: The Workshop route crashes in the production docs build
-
-**Why it matters:** No visual polish matters if the store becomes a Docusaurus error page. A fresh independent tab consistently reached `This page crashed` with React error 130. The console attributed the thrown error to the Kapa widget bundle.
-
-**Fix:** Isolate or disable the Kapa script on Workshop routes, prevent third-party widget failures from reaching the Docusaurus route boundary, and add a route-level Workshop boundary that preserves navigation and retry. Reproduce against the built Docker docs image, not only the development server.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable harden`
-
-### P1: Failure and empty states contradict each other
-
-**Why it matters:** Showing `Something went wrong.` followed by `No submissions yet` makes users believe the store is both broken and empty. The generic message gives no cause and no recovery.

-**Fix:** Make loading, failure, empty, and results mutually exclusive. The failure state should say that listings could not be loaded, preserve the current filters, and provide `Try loading again`. Do not render filters or an empty store as authoritative data after the initial request fails.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable harden`
-
-### P1: Mobile discovery controls are too dense and do not form a responsive hierarchy
-
-**Why it matters:** The toolbar's inner row contains four type choices, sorting, and outdated visibility without wrapping. Most controls are 24 to 28 pixels tall. At narrow widths this is difficult to scan, easy to clip, and below a comfortable touch target.
-
-**Fix:** Put a full-width search first on mobile, keep All, Widgets, and CSS as the primary segmented choice, move sorting and outdated visibility into a compact secondary row or popover, and hide Yours when signed out or make it a sign-in affordance. Use at least 40 to 44 pixel touch targets. Add `aria-pressed` or proper tab semantics to the type filter.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable adapt`
-
-### P1: The store does not make the install journey obvious
-
-**Why it matters:** A first-time user sees Copy and Download without knowing which is recommended, what will be copied, how to inspect safety, or where the file goes in Homarr. This weakens the store's main purpose.
-
-**Fix:** Make the detail page the decision surface. Use one primary action named for its result, such as `Download widget JSON` or `Copy CSS`, with a short `Install in Homarr` explanation linked to the correct in-app flow. Cards should prioritize title, preview, compatibility, score, and `View details`; secondary utilities should not compete with evaluation.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable clarify`
-
-### P2: Card and moderation actions are too small and too numerous
-
-**Why it matters:** Vote, copy, download, comment, delete, and report controls compete in a compact footer. Low-contrast icon buttons are hard to discover and hard to use by touch. CSS columns also create a top-to-bottom visual reading order that can differ from the expected row order.
-
-**Fix:** Use a regular responsive grid, remove hover scaling, keep one or two visible card actions, and move owner/moderation actions to a menu. Keep voting visible but increase its target size. Correct the report copy: reports and reporter identities are moderation data, not public social proof.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable distill`
-
-## Persona Red Flags
-
-### Jordan, first-time self-hoster
-
-Jordan opens Workshop to install a widget. The route can crash before any listing appears. In the partial failure state, Jordan sees both an error and an empty store. If listings load, Copy and Download do not explain the Homarr destination or recommended path. Jordan is likely to leave before installing anything.
-
-### Alex, experienced Homarr administrator
-
-Alex can understand the JSON and appreciates the source viewer, but title-only search and limited filtering make a larger catalog inefficient. Compatibility and required secret information are not prominent at browse time. Tiny moderation and owner controls slow repeated management tasks.
-
-### Morgan, mobile user
-
-Morgan encounters a toolbar with more controls than fit comfortably in one decision group, 24 to 28 pixel targets, and a signed-out Yours filter that leads to an unhelpful no-results state. Submission cards add another dense row of small actions.
-
-## Minor Observations
-
-- Future submission steps are focusable buttons even when clicking them does nothing. Disable them or render non-interactive progress markers.
-- The report textarea relies on placeholder text and needs a persistent accessible label.
-- The revision editor should reuse the same JSON/CSS CodeMirror component as creation.
-- Search should include title, description, and author at minimum.
-- The timed inline `Confirm?` deletion pattern is easy to miss and weak for keyboard and touch users.
-- The detail-page changelog uses an uppercase tracked label, which is unnecessary in this otherwise restrained interface.
-- Loading comments should use the same skeleton vocabulary as listings rather than centered status text.
-
-## Questions to Consider
-
-1. Is Workshop primarily a catalog for discovery, or a technical exchange for copying source? The primary card and detail actions should commit to one answer.
-2. Should users evaluate compatibility and required secrets before opening a listing, or only on the detail page?
-3. Does Workshop need every moderation and ownership action visible inline, or should those actions live behind a menu?

-| 3         | User control and freedom            |       4/4 | Filters can be cleared, errors retried, dialogs cancelled, and destructive submission deletion requires explicit confirmation.                                   |
-| 4         | Consistency and standards           |       4/4 | Creation and revision editing share CodeMirror, buttons follow the shared system, and cards use a predictable responsive grid.                                   |
-| 5         | Error prevention                    |       3/4 | Validation, disabled progression, pending states, RLS, and confirmations are strong; disabled form progression could explain unmet requirements more explicitly. |
-| 6         | Recognition rather than recall      |       4/4 | Persistent labels, type descriptions, step status, source previews, and installation instructions minimize recall.                                               |
-| 7         | Flexibility and efficiency          |       4/4 | Search spans title, description, and author; signed-in filtering, sorting, responsive controls, and direct detail actions support repeat use.                    |
-| 8         | Aesthetic and minimalist design     |       3/4 | The catalog is restrained and scannable; long source documents and the complete creator form necessarily remain dense on small screens.                          |
-| 9         | Help users recover from errors      |       4/4 | Route, listing, edit, report, copy, OAuth, and detail failures remain local and provide a clear next action.                                                     |
-| 10        | Help and documentation              |       4/4 | The detail page explains the exact Homarr destination and links to updated Workshop documentation.                                                               |

-
-## Anti-Patterns Verdict
-
-The surface is product-led rather than decorative. The redesign removes the overloaded card footer, hover scaling, tiny touch controls, public moderation details, contradictory states, and ambiguous install actions. The deterministic Impeccable detector reports zero findings.
-
-## What Improved
-
-1. The production route no longer collapses into the Docusaurus crash screen without recovery. A route-local boundary protects navigation, and the fresh-volume production path renders without console errors.
-2. Loading, failure, empty, stale-results, and populated states are truthful and mutually exclusive.
-3. Search and filters form a clear responsive hierarchy. Mobile targets are 40–44 pixels, signed-out users do not see Yours, and cards no longer overflow at 390 pixels.
-4. Cards prioritize evaluation: title, author, type, score, description, comments, and View details. Copy, download, reporting, editing, and deletion moved to the detail page.
-5. The detail page now teaches the installation journey and names its primary action precisely.
-6. Reports and reporter identities are admin-only through PocketBase rules. Public catalog UI no longer turns reports into social proof.
-7. The creator and revision dialogs share the CodeMirror editor, use bounded internal scrolling, expose pending/error states, and avoid step-selection layout shifts.
-
-## Remaining Minor Opportunities
-
-### P2: Explain disabled progression inline
-
-The Type and Details steps are understandable, but a disabled Next button could state the missing requirement for keyboard and first-time users. This is a refinement, not a blocker, because required fields and validation messages are already present.
-
-### P2: Consider a compact source summary on very small screens
-
-The read-only source viewer is intentionally complete and horizontally scrollable. A future collapse/expand summary could reduce page length for nontechnical visitors without hiding inspection entirely.
-
-## Verification Evidence
-
-- Fresh Docker Compose PocketBase volume and production docs image.
-- Populated catalog with widget, CSS, and outdated examples.
-- Desktop and 390px mobile layouts in light and dark themes.
-- Widget detail, installation instructions, CodeMirror source view, and comments.
-- Signed-in submission wizard through Type and Details, including the shared editor.
-- Zero browser console errors after the final fixes.
-- Impeccable deterministic detector: zero findings.
-
-## Compatibility Note
-
-An existing local development volume created from an earlier unreleased version of the reset migration still has a stale Workshop view. It is intentionally not migrated or deleted. A fresh volume created from the current unreleased migration is the supported validation target and works correctly.

-
-## Anti-Patterns Verdict
-
-**LLM assessment:** Moderate AI-assisted feel, not outright slop. Domain-specific copy, extensive state coverage, and transparent source/capability information make the feature credible. The generic card grid, repeated rounded panels, icon tiles, uppercase tracked labels, and decorative changelog stripe still expose a component-recipe grammar. It looks competent but not fully edited into a distinctive Homarr store.
-
-**Deterministic scan:** `detect.mjs --json apps/docs/src/components/workshop` exited 0 with exact output `[]`: zero findings, zero triggered rules, and no false positives. The scan found none of Impeccable's deterministic anti-patterns.
-
-**Visual overlays:** No reliable user-visible overlay is available. The independent detector agent had no browser backend. The parent fallback opened a fresh browser tab and visually inspected the listing, but the browser API did not expose a mutable evaluation method for the required preflight, so injection and `[Human]` visibility were correctly skipped. Browser/source evidence was used instead.
-
-## Overall Impression
-
-The Workshop is already substantially better than a generic gallery: it communicates authorship, source code, API capabilities, secrets, revision history, reports, and discussion. The biggest opportunity is to turn that information into a deliberate trust sequence. Today the interface lets the user act first and understand safety later, especially on mobile.
-
-## What's Working
-
-- **State coverage is unusually strong.** Listing failures, stale data, loading skeletons, empty results, filter recovery, comment errors, pending actions, and destructive confirmations have explicit UI.
-- **Pre-install transparency is excellent.** API hosts, methods, configurable options, network scope, and credential requirements are visible instead of hidden behind a download.
-- **The new primitive layer is coherent.** Search, filters, menus, switches, dialogs, and code presentation share one restrained interaction vocabulary across light and dark themes.
-
-## Priority Issues
-
-### [P1] Safety context arrives after the install action on mobile
-
-**Why it matters:** Download and copy actions appear in the header, while source capabilities, credential requirements, and installation guidance live in an aside that drops below the long source and discussion sections under the desktop breakpoint. A first-time mobile user can commit before understanding what the widget contacts or what secrets it needs.
-
-**Fix:** Put a compact “Before you install” summary immediately below the header on small screens: API hosts, network scopes, credential count, and action/query counts. Keep the full sticky details panel on desktop.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable layout`
-
-### [P1] Primary button and own-comment contrast misses AA
-
-**Why it matters:** The requested theme's primary red with white foreground is about 3.4:1, below 4.5:1 for small text. The same pairing affects primary buttons and the author's comment bubbles.
-
-**Fix:** Darken the primary red or use a dark foreground in light mode, then verify default buttons and comment bubbles in both themes.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable colorize`
-
-### [P2] The listing's server-rendered fallback is blank
-
-**Why it matters:** Before hydration, the listing renders an empty block instead of preserving the page's hierarchy and indicating progress. This creates a visible dead zone on slower self-hosted deployments.
-
-**Fix:** Render the listing heading, toolbar silhouette, and shared skeleton cards as the `BrowserOnly` fallback, matching the detail page's loading treatment.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable harden`
-
-### [P2] Download, copy, source, and install compete for the same task
-
-**Why it matters:** “Download widget,” “Copy JSON,” a full source viewer, and a separate installation panel all appear as parallel paths. Users must infer the recommended workflow.
-
-**Fix:** Make “Download widget JSON” the single primary header action. Keep copy beside the source viewer and place the next import step directly beside or immediately after download.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable clarify`
-
-### [P2] Repeated metadata scaffolding creates visual noise
-
-**Why it matters:** Card shells, badges, icon tiles, uppercase tracked labels, and the changelog stripe make the detail page feel assembled from recipes and slow scanning.
-
-**Fix:** Flatten the widget details into a compact definition list, reserve badges for status, and remove the decorative changelog stripe.
-
-**Suggested command:** `$impeccable distill`
-
-## Persona Red Flags
-
-**Jordan, first-timer:** “Network scope,” queries, actions, options, and the manifest schema appear without inline explanation. Download versus copy has no stated recommendation. On mobile, credential and installation context arrives after source and discussion.
-
-**Sam, accessibility-dependent user:** Primary controls and author comment bubbles miss small-text contrast. Copy, optimistic votes, filter result changes, and successful report/edit completion do not expose explicit live-region behavior. Gallery controls and dots are below comfortable touch-target sizes.
-
-**Casey, distracted mobile user:** The most important safety panel falls to the bottom, while primary actions stay at the top. Long source and discussion content separate the decision from its explanation. The submit type selector remains dense at narrow widths.
-
-## Minor Observations
-
-- The internal installation guide uses an external-link icon.
-- The final publication action says “Submit” rather than “Publish submission.”
-- Dark-theme tokens are declared in two blocks, increasing drift risk.
-- Screenshot dots rely on opacity alone and lack `aria-current`.
-- Successful report and edit actions deserve a small confirmation instead of silent dismissal.
-
-## Questions to Consider
-
-- If source review is important enough to say “Review exactly what will be installed,” why can users download before seeing the capability and credential summary?
-- Is Workshop primarily a code catalog or a safety-conscious app store? The current action hierarchy tries to be both.
-- Should the successful end state be a downloaded file, or a confident handoff into Homarr with the next step already visible?

-# Changes
-
-## Goal
-
-Remove widget-only services from Homarr's global Integration system.
-
-The affected services are release providers and Search.ch. They are only used by specific widgets, so keeping them as global integrations added unnecessary setup, UI, database rows, docs pages, and integration package code.
-
-ArchiveTeam Warrior remains a proper integration but is no longer auto-seeded on first install.
-
-## Why
-
-These services do not need shared integration state.
-
-- Release providers are selected per Releases widget repository.
-- Search.ch is only used by the Timetable widget.
-
-Moving them into widget options makes configuration simpler and removes dead-weight integration code from `packages/integrations`.
-
-## What Changed
-
-### Release Providers
-
-- Added release provider definitions in `packages/definitions/src/release-provider.ts`.
-- Removed release providers from `IntegrationKind`.
-- Moved release-fetching code out of `packages/integrations` and into `packages/request-handler/src/release-providers.ts`.
-- Updated the Releases widget to store provider configuration directly in widget options:
-  - `provider`
-  - `identifier`
-  - `versionFilter`
-  - `providerUrl`
-- Updated the Releases widget editor to use a provider select instead of an integration select.
-- Updated Docker import mapping so `ghcr.io` maps to `gitHubContainerRegistry`.
-- GitHub Container Registry now uses the public OCI registry API and accepts full image references such as `ghcr.io/homarr-labs/homarr:latest`.
-
-### Timetable / Search.ch
-
-- Removed Search.ch as an integration.
-- Added a Timetable widget `baseUrl` option, defaulting to `https://search.ch`.
-- Moved Search.ch request/parsing logic into `packages/request-handler/src/timetable.ts`.
-- Updated the Timetable API to receive `baseUrl` directly from widget options.
-
-### ArchiveTeam Warrior
-
-- Kept as a proper integration (not removed).
-- Removed `defaultUrl` from the integration definition to prevent auto-seeding on first install.
-
-### Integration Cleanup
-
-- Removed creators, exports, docs references, and implementation files for the deleted integrations.
-- Removed unused dependencies from `packages/integrations/package.json`.
-
-### Database Migration
-
-- Added `packages/db/migrations/custom/0003_remove_widget_only_integrations.ts`.
-- The migration moves old integration-linked widget config into widget options, then deletes the old widget-only integration rows.
-- Updated the earlier release widget migration to use the new `provider` field instead of `providerIntegrationId`.
-
-### Docs
-
-- Updated Releases widget docs to describe providers instead of integrations.
-- Updated Timetable docs to remove Search.ch integration setup.
-- Removed obsolete integration docs pages for the deleted integration kinds.
-- Updated docs sitemap and integration docs mappings.
-
-### Translations
-
-- Added English labels for the new widget options:
-  - `widget.timetable.option.baseUrl.label`
-  - `widget.releases.option.repositories.providerUrl.label`
-
-## How It Works Now
-
-Release provider configuration lives on each Releases widget repository entry. The request handler resolves provider metadata and fetches releases directly from the provider-specific endpoint. GHCR uses anonymous OCI registry access for public packages.
-
-Timetable passes its widget URL option directly to its API router and request handler. No global integration lookup is needed.
-
-ArchiveTeam Warrior continues to use the standard integration system, but users must manually add the integration (it is not auto-created on install).
-
-## Deliberate Non-Goals
-
-- No provider secret/token support was added.
-- No new secret storage model was introduced.
-- No compatibility layer was kept in `packages/integrations`.
-
-Widget options are client-visible, so storing provider credentials there would be wrong. If authenticated provider requests are needed later, they need a separate secret-storage design.
-
-## Verification So Far
-
-- Focused typechecks passed for affected packages.
-- Full `pnpm turbo typecheck` passed.
-- Full `pnpm lint` passed with existing warnings.
-- Focused release provider normalization tests passed.
-- Widget translation test passed.
-- Live GHCR smoke checks passed for `ghcr.io/muchobien/pocketbase:latest` and `ghcr.io/homarr-labs/homarr:latest`.
-- `pnpm test packages/integrations/test/pi-hole.spec.ts` passed earlier, but failed on rebased reruns because Pi-hole reported `domainsBeingBlocked` as `-2`/`0` instead of `> 1`.

-# Product

-## Register

-product
-
-## Users
-
-Homarr is used by self-hosters and administrators who assemble dashboards for services running across home labs and private infrastructure. They need dense, reliable controls and status at a glance, with enough guidance to configure advanced features without hiding how they work.
-
-## Product Purpose
-
-Homarr provides one place to organize, observe, and operate self-hosted services. Success means a user can build a useful dashboard quickly, understand its state, recover from configuration errors, and extend it without requiring a bespoke Homarr feature for every service.
-
-## Brand Personality
-
-Direct, capable, and approachable. Copy should be concise and technical when precision matters, while the interface should remain familiar to users who are not developers.
-
-## Anti-references
-
-Avoid decorative admin dashboards, wizard flows that fight ordinary scrolling, hidden configuration magic, inconsistent controls, excessive modal usage, and interfaces that expose implementation complexity before the user needs it.
-
-## Design Principles
-
-1. Keep the user in control by making configuration and consequences visible.
-2. Prefer familiar product patterns and progressive disclosure over custom interaction concepts.
-3. Make simple tasks short without limiting advanced use cases.
-4. Isolate failures so one service or widget cannot disrupt the dashboard.
-5. Use the existing Mantine design language consistently across management and board surfaces.
-
-## Accessibility & Inclusion
-
-Target WCAG 2.2 AA. Support keyboard navigation, screen readers, visible focus, sufficient contrast, reduced motion, non-color status cues, responsive layouts, and actionable error messages.

+## CLI Commands
+
+The commands below use the installed `homarr` binary. Without global installation, prefix each command with `pnpm dev:cli --` (for example, `pnpm dev:cli -- list`).
+
+### Launch Instances
 
 ```bash
-pnpm dev:cli -- rebuild <name>
+homarr run dev
+homarr run --detach dev
+homarr run --pr 6441
+homarr run --pr 6441 --demo
+homarr --pr 6441 --env WORKSHOP_WEB_URL=https://app-v2.preview.homarr.dev/
 ```
 
-Images built by this CLI record their source checkout, revision, and optional pull-request number. Rebuild uses that provenance to select the original checkout or create a fresh temporary pull-request checkout.
+- `--pr <number>`: Pull and run a PR image from GHCR (shorthand: `homarr --pr <number>`).
+- `--demo` (`-m`): Start with mock integrations and sample data.
+- `--detach`: Start container in background.
+- `--env` (`-e`): Pass additional environment variables (repeatable: `--env KEY=VALUE`).
 
-## Run images
+### Build & Rebuild
 
 ```bash
-homarr run <name>
-homarr run --pr <number>
+# Build current checkout as homarr:<name>
+homarr build feature
+
+# Build a pull request locally in a temporary checkout
+homarr build --pr 6441
+
+# Rebuild an existing image from recorded provenance
+homarr rebuild feature
 ```
 
-Add `--detach` to run in the background, `--demo` to enable demo data, or repeat `--env KEY=VALUE` to provide additional environment variables.
+Images built with the CLI record their source checkout, revision SHA, and optional PR number. `homarr rebuild` reads this provenance to reconstruct the build without manual configuration.
+
+### GitHub CI Checks
+
+```bash
+# View CI checks for a specific PR
+homarr ci 6441
+
+# View CI checks for the current branch
+homarr ci
+
+# Watch CI checks until completion
+homarr ci 6441 --watch
+```
+
+### Interactive Shell
+
+```bash
+# Open interactive shell in running container
+homarr shell homarr-dev
+
+# Run specific command in container
+homarr shell homarr-dev pnpm db:migration:sqlite:run
+```
+
+### Image & Volume Management
+
+```bash
+# List local images with build provenance (source, revision, PR)
+homarr images
+
+# Delete local image
+homarr images rm feature
+
+# List data volumes with owner PR/tag and in-use status
+homarr data
+
+# Delete data volume (safely stops and removes owning container first)
+homarr data rm homarr_feature_data
+
+# Remove stopped containers (prompts without --force)
+homarr prune --force
+```
+
+### Instance Operations & Diagnostics
+
+```bash
+# List instances in a script-friendly table
+homarr list
+
+# Follow container logs
+homarr logs homarr-dev
+
+# Stop, restart, remove, or open container in browser
+homarr stop homarr-dev
+homarr restart homarr-dev
+homarr remove homarr-dev

-Docusaurus reads `HOMARR_WEBSITE_URL` and `WORKSHOP_API_URL` when it starts or builds. Homarr also reads
-`WORKSHOP_WEB_URL` when its server starts, so these values do not rely on `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` build variables. Test a
-separate API origin before release:
-
-```sh
-HOMARR_WEBSITE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3003 \
-WORKSHOP_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8090 \
-WORKSHOP_WEB_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3003/workshop \
-pnpm dev:docs

+
+Homarr keeps feature registration explicit and typed. Feature registration has no generator or generated registry.
+A new feature is available when its typed metadata and lazy loader are registered.
+
+## Add a widget
+
+Keep the UI, options, helpers, and tests together in `packages/widgets/src/<widget>/`. The usual folder only needs an
+`index.ts` definition and a lazily imported `component.tsx`; complex widgets can add local files as needed.
+
+1. Add the stable kind to `packages/definitions/src/widget.ts` and its documentation slug to the direct typed map in
+   `packages/definitions/src/docs/widget-doc-slugs.ts`.
+2. Export `definition` and `componentLoader` from `packages/widgets/src/<widget>/index.ts` with
+   `createWidgetDefinition`. The local definition owns its icon, query keys, refresh interval, options, matchers, and
+   errors. Keep the component behind `withDynamicImport` so adding a widget does not load it on every dashboard.
+3. For an integration-backed widget, add its integration kinds and selection rules once to
+   `packages/definitions/src/widget-integration-map.ts`, then spread `getWidgetIntegrationConfig(kind)` into the local
+   definition. This server-safe config is also the API authorization boundary, avoiding a package cycle without
+   duplicating widget metadata.
+4. Register the widget in both explicit literal loader maps and the type-only module map in
+   `packages/widgets/src/registry.ts`, then add its icon to `packages/ui/src/widget-icons.ts`. The module and component
+   loaders must both use literal import paths. Keeping them separate lets a cold widget load request its definition
+   and component chunks in parallel; the type-only map preserves exact option and component inference. Keep all three
+   maps in the same order so drift is obvious in review.
+5. If the widget needs server data, add its tRPC router under `packages/api/src/router/widgets/` and add its explicit
+   lazy import to `packages/api/src/router/widgets/index.ts`. Keep upstream requests and Redis response caching in
+   `@homarr/request-handler`. Use the widget integration middleware for integration-backed procedures.
+6. Add canonical documentation in `apps/docs/docs/widgets/<slug>/`.
+
+Weather is the small integration-free example. Downloads shows integration selection, polling, server caching,
+mutations, partial upstream failures, and a larger options surface.
+
+## Add an integration
+
+Keep the HTTP client and its capability-specific types in `packages/integrations/src/<integration>/`.
+
+1. Add the typed definition to `packages/definitions/src/integration.ts`, including credential alternatives,
+   categories, documentation slug, ports, Docker aliases, and onboarding metadata when relevant.
+2. Add an explicit lazy creator to `packages/integrations/src/base/creator.ts`. The literal import keeps the
+   implementation out of the initial server bundle and makes the registration easy to find.
+3. Implement only the interfaces required by the widgets that use the service.
+4. Add canonical documentation in `apps/docs/docs/integrations/<slug>/`. Its `index.ts` must satisfy
+   `IntegrationDefinition` so invalid metadata fails type checking without widening the object. Use a type-only import
+   and `satisfies IntegrationDefinition`; do not cast the object.
+
+Beszel is a compact example with several widgets sharing one integration client.
+
+## Write user documentation
+
+Write for technically capable self-hosters. Keep each page short and operational.
+
+- Start with one sentence describing what the integration or widget adds to Homarr.
+- Include prerequisites, credentials, permissions, destructive actions, and non-obvious limits only when they matter.
+- Use numbered steps only when order matters. Prefer the exact UI labels a user must select.
+- Do not add marketing, implementation history, architecture internals, or explanations of basic self-hosting concepts.
+- End when the user can configure and verify the feature; do not repeat the same information in a summary.
+
+The usual page needs only an introduction and a `Configuration` section. Add `Notes` or `Troubleshooting` only for
+real caveats.
+
+## Data and errors
+
+- TanStack Query owns browser caching and refresh behavior. Redis owns shared server response caching for bounded key
+  spaces. Public handlers whose keys come from arbitrary URLs, domains, symbols, or coordinates stay in the bounded
+  process-local cache.
+- Cache raw service responses, never authorization decisions or decrypted credentials. Integration-backed cache keys
+  include keyed credential fingerprints and the complete integration identity, and are invalidated after mutations.
+  The fingerprints change with credentials without exposing their values in Redis keys.
+- Give upstream requests a finite deadline and pass the request handler's `AbortSignal` into clients that support it.
+  Admission is bounded per handler. Request deduplication and distributed lock ownership remain active until the
+  upstream settles or a bounded cleanup grace expires, while unresolved upstream work stays separately capped.
+- Keep validation and authorization on the server. Client-side checks improve UX but do not replace tRPC guards.
+- Use the shared logger with safe identifiers, operation names, duration, and the original error cause. Never log
+  secrets or full upstream payloads.
+- Multi-integration reads should return successful providers when one service fails and surface a clear error when all
+  providers fail.
+
+Registration files intentionally contain boring, explicit imports. This small amount of repetition preserves exact
+TypeScript inference, gives Next.js discoverable lazy chunks, and keeps Ctrl+click navigation reliable.
+
+## Registry imports
+
+Use `@homarr/widgets/manifest` to load registered widgets. `loadWidgetDefinition` is the metadata-only path;
+`loadWidgetComponent` loads only the UI module; and `loadWidgetResources` requests both paths in parallel. These
+loaders cache in-flight and successful promises and remove rejected promises so a later request can retry.
+
+The former root `widgetImports` and `loadWidgetDynamic` exports are intentionally not compatibility aliases.
+`widgetImports` synchronously imported every widget module, and `loadWidgetDynamic` depended on that eager map.
+Restoring them at the package root would defeat lazy definition chunks or add client-only runtime dependencies to
+every root consumer. Migrate metadata consumers to `loadWidgetDefinition`, renderers to `loadWidgetResources`, and
+type-only registry consumers from the removed internal `WidgetImportRecord` helper to the root `WidgetImports` type.
+
+`@homarr/widgets/catalog` remains as a deprecated compatibility subpath for `widgetCatalogIcons`. New imports should
+use `@homarr/ui/widget-icons`, which is the canonical server-safe icon catalog.

+
+## Search and commands
+
+Search is designed as the fastest route to Homarr. Start typing after `MOD` + `K` to find local apps, boards,
+integrations, pages, commands, and preferences without entering a separate mode first. Local Homarr results appear
+before configured search-engine actions and Assistant fallbacks. Commands include opening the board switcher without
+leaving the keyboard. Type `!` to enter Web mode when you want to browse configured engine shortcuts or discover
+DuckDuckGo bangs; bang discovery is excluded from ordinary Search results.
+
+Use the dedicated shortcuts above to start in apps, Assistant, or preferences. Inside search, choose a mode to narrow
+the same query when needed. Media request search is available only when a supported Seerr integration is configured.
+
+## Widget advanced view
+
+Supported widgets open a temporary advanced view when you hold `Shift` over them for 500 ms. Hold `Shift` plus `Ctrl`
+on Windows/Linux or `Cmd` on macOS over the widget to keep the advanced view open, or use its menu.
+
+## Board editing
+
+`MOD` + `E` enters edit mode. Homarr keeps the current board visible while the editor prepares; movement and resizing become available when it is ready.
+
+When a tile is focused in edit mode:
+
+| Shortcut             | Description                                                                 |
+| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `Enter` or `Space`   | Starts or stops keyboard editing                                            |
+| Arrow keys           | Moves the focused tile within its current canvas, rail, or Container        |
+| `Shift` + Arrow keys | Resizes from the tile's lower-right corner: Left/Up shrink; Right/Down grow |
+| `Esc`                | Stops keyboard editing without undoing its changes                          |
+
+Keyboard moves and resizes apply immediately. To move an item between a canvas, rail, or Container, drag it there or use **Move / resize item** for precise numeric placement.
+Commands at a grid boundary or at the tile's minimum size are ignored and announced instead of moving or shrinking the tile.
+
+On touch screens, press and hold a tile before moving it; a quick tap does not start a drag. Resize handles accept direct touch input. During a pointer or touch move or resize, `Esc` cancels the interaction and restores the layout from before it started.
+
+## Board editing

+| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `Enter` or `Space`   | Starts or stops keyboard editing                                            |
+| Arrow keys           | Moves the focused tile within its current canvas, rail, or Container        |

 ## Onboarding
 
-The onboard will show the first time you start Homarr.
-This process will help you with your first steps and adding some initial data, such as the administrator account.
+Onboarding appears the first time Homarr starts. Its goal is to create a useful responsive board, not merely an
+administrator account. The setup uses one guided studio, so you can keep the safe defaults and finish quickly or review
+every detected service before anything is added to the board.
 
 :::note
 
-If you see this screen repeatitly after you restarted the Homarr container, your Docker mounting paths may be missing,
+If you see this screen repeatedly after restarting the Homarr container, your Docker mounting paths may be missing,
 incorrect or read-only. Read [our installation instructions](/docs/getting-started/installation/docker) again to fix this issue.
 
 :::
 
-You can either import a previous dashboard using the ZIP archive or start from scratch:
+### Restore or start fresh
 
-![Screenshot of Step 1 onboarding](./img/onboarding-step-1.png)
+SQLite installations can restore a complete Homarr database backup from the welcome screen. This restores current
+boards, people, apps, integrations, and settings. The pre-1.0 ZIP importer is no longer included.
 
-You may refresh anytime and continue from a different device - the onboarding is saved immediately on the server for your convenience.
+For a new installation, Homarr first creates either a credentials administrator or an administrator group matching your
+LDAP/OIDC provider. The browser that starts setup claims the first-run session; refreshes are safe, while another browser
+cannot change credentials or integrations during that setup.
 
-### Starting from scratch
+### Setup studio
 
-Depending on your auth provider configuration you will either first see the admin user creation form or the external group creation form.
-If the credentials provider was selected, you'll be prompted to create an admin user for Homarr.
-This user cannot be deleted and has full control over Homarr and all of its boards.
-You must choose a username and password (both can later be changed).
-We enforce strict password requirements when you enter your password to protect your instance if you accidentally
-expose it to the internet.
+The studio keeps related choices together:
 
-<img src={imageStartFromScratchStepAdminUser} alt={"Screenshot form to create admin user"} width={300} />
+1. **Essentials** sets the default language, color scheme, analytics preference, and the usual host, IP address, domain, or reverse-proxy path used by your services. URL suggestions can use separate ports, subdomains, or one path per service.
+2. **Discover** checks the actual database, Docker-compatible sockets, Kubernetes configuration, Workshop, and Assistant capabilities. Unavailable sources never block manual setup.
+3. **Connect** shows detected integrations and apps first, identifying whether each app came from an explicit [`homarr.*` or Homepage Docker label](/docs/integrations/docker-labels) or image matching. Select several integrations and apps at once, review every URL, and use the service-specific link to open its API-key settings when one is available. If a container has no published port or URL label, add its HTTP or HTTPS address before importing it.
+4. **Board** previews the Base layout, colors, widget radius, sidebars, selected apps, and widgets inferred from integrations or Docker labels. Choose 8 columns for a focused board, 10 for a balanced board, 12 for a wide board, or use the slider for a custom width up to 24 columns. Homarr still creates and reflows the protected Mobile layout automatically. A fast setup adds the integration-free Clock, Weather, and Bookmarks starter widgets.
+5. **Extend** explains and optionally configures Assistant, the community Workshop, and the separate Homarr MCP endpoint.
+6. **Review** tests the selected connections, then saves integrations, apps, widgets, settings, and the exact first board together. If any part fails, the database changes are rolled back and your form stays available to correct.
 
-If you selected external providers (such as LDAP or OIDC), you'll be prompted to create an admin group.
-This group will be used to synchronize users from your provider to Homarr.
-When a user logs in through the provider, any of their groups that match groups in Homarr will be assigned to the user.
-The name of the group must match exactly the name of the group in the provider.
+Docker discovery reports each configured host separately. Results from reachable hosts remain selectable if another socket
+is unavailable, which is useful for remote Docker, rootless Docker, Synology, and mixed deployments. On Kubernetes or
+bare-metal installations without a Docker socket, enter services manually and use the same integration catalog.

+After setup, **Open my board** takes you directly to the configured board. The in-product tour then introduces edit mode,
+responsive layouts, widgets, and search without delaying completion.
 
-Next, you can configure some basic settings for Homarr. We recommend to leave all settings at default for most users.
-Here you can also disable analytics. Please note that our analytics are completly anonymous and is fully compliant with GDPR and PECR.

-
-### Setting up integrations
-
-After configuring server settings, the onboarding guides you through setting up your integrations.
-
-#### Docker service discovery
-
-If Docker is available (socket mounted), Homarr automatically detects running containers and matches them to known integration types.
-Matching integrations are pre-selected in the integration list, saving you from manually picking each one.
-
-#### URL templating
-
-You can define a base URL template to auto-fill integration URLs in bulk.
-Two modes are supported:
-
-- **Subdomain mode** - e.g. `{app}.example.com` where `{app}` is replaced with the integration name
-- **Port mode** - e.g. `192.168.1.1:{port}` where `{port}` is replaced with the integration's default port
-
-#### API key helper links
-
-For integrations that require API keys (such as Sonarr, Radarr, SABnzbd, or Seerr), a helper link opens the relevant settings page in the target application so you can quickly copy your key.
-
-#### Creating apps from Docker containers
-
-You can optionally auto-create bookmark apps for all discovered Docker containers, making them immediately available on your board.
-
-:::note
-
-Release providers and Search.ch are configured directly in their widgets instead of the integrations page.

-### Importing a ZIP from version before 1.0.0
-
-This is recommended when you used Homarr before and want to re-import your data.

-
-<img src={manageExportOldHomarr} alt="Export from old Homarr" style={{ maxWidth: 500 }} />
-
-**How to export and import data**
-
-1. Navigate to your old Homarr, open your management pages, open the tools submenu and open `Migrate to 1.0`.
-2. Check the contents that you want to export. We recommend you to export all data.
-3. Click on the export data button
-4. Save the ZIP file, that is being downloaded, on your device. If you selected "integrations" or "users", you also get an encryption / decryption key.
-   Copy it and do not loose it!
-5. Go to your new >1.0.0 Homarr instance and start the onboarding. Choose `Import from Homarr before 1.0`
-6. Drag and drop your previously downloaded ZIP archive into the file upload: <br/><img src={manageImportOldHomarrDropzone} style={{ maxWidth: 500 }} />
-7. Next, choose the data that you want to import and how to import it. Since screen sizes were removed in 1.0, we create a new board for every screen size by default. We recommend you to only keep the best layout and adjust it later in 1.0.0 - but you can also import all of them and pick later.<br/><img src={manageImportOldHomarrChooseData} style={{ maxWidth: 500 }} />
-8. If you previously exported integrations or users, you will be asked to decrypt the data safely using your obtained encryption token. Paste into the modal and confirm your action.<br/><img src={manageImportDecryptionToken} style={{ maxWidth: 500 }} />
-9. Next, you can [follow the same setup as when starting from scratch](#starting-from-scratch). After you completed the onboarding, all of your data will be migrated and available.

+Homarr scales the complete board uniformly, like zooming a page.
+The complete canvas always fits the available width without horizontal board scrolling. Below 100%, Homarr preserves the
+widget's readable typography and control density instead of shrinking each widget independently.
+It does not squeeze or reflow the content of individual widgets, so a widget keeps the same design and proportions across screen sizes.
 
-![](./img/move-item.gif)
+On a narrow screen, Homarr uses the **Mobile layout** for the selected board and stacks the board content vertically while
+preserving each widget's fixed logical proportions:

 :::note
 
-You cannot move items freely on the vertical axis.
-We always align all items to the top of the page to simply organization.
-To move items to the bottom, you must add more items or resize items.
+Viewing a board initially uses the lightweight, non-interactive layout.
+For users with edit access, Homarr prepares drag-and-drop and resize controls in the background after the board becomes interactive.
+If you enter edit mode before that finishes, the existing board stays visible until the editor is ready.

+## Organizing items with Containers
 
-## Grouping your items
+Containers are resizable areas for apps, widgets, and nested Containers.
+The same Container works on the main canvas, inside a fixed rail, or inside another Container.
+Each Container can configure:

+- Allow or disable collapsing.
+- Show or hide **Open all in new tabs**.
+- Change its border color and custom CSS classes.
 
-### Using dynamic sections
+Open the add-content menu and choose **New container**.
+In edit mode, move and resize it like any other item, then drag items into or out of it.
+Nested content stays within the Container's bounds.
+While resizing, the solid outline follows the pointer continuously and the dashed grid preview shows the size that will be saved on release.
 
-Dynamic sections are a simple, resizable visual group to group items.
+### Collapsing and opening apps
 
-![](./img/create-dynamic-section.png)
+Users can collapse an eligible Container like an accordion in view mode without changing its saved expanded size.
+The full-width header becomes the compact expansion bar, so the half-row state has no empty pill-shaped spacer.
+Expanding it restores its bounds and makes room for its contents.
+If **Open all in new tabs** is enabled, the Container menu can open every app link it contains.
 
-After adding a dynamic section, you can simply drag and drop items into the section:
+### Fixed rails

-You can drag and drop items in to this category in the edit mode.
-Categories will have a big space before and after them in the edit mode to
-enable you to drag and drop items outside the category.
-You can also collapse or open categories in edit mode to facilitate your editing process.

-A current limitation of categories is, that they will always have a width of 100%.
-You cannot reduce their horizontal width.

+Open the board's **Layout** settings to enable the left or right rail for each responsive layout.
+Choose one, two, or three columns with the slider and use the preview to check the remaining canvas width.
+The rail reserves those columns from the dashboard, so Homarr moves canvas items into the next available positions.
+Rail content stays visible while the page scrolls and remains editable.
+Each responsive layout keeps its own rail widths, item positions, and item sizes.

+
+# Docker label discovery
+
+During onboarding, Homarr scans running containers on every reachable
+[Docker-compatible host](/docs/integrations/docker). Labels let you provide exact app metadata instead of relying on
+image-name matching. You can review and deselect every result before Homarr creates anything.
+
+A container with valid Homarr labels takes priority over image-based discovery. Containers without valid labels can
+still be suggested from their image and published ports.
+
+## Homarr labels
+
+`homarr.name` and `homarr.href` are required for label discovery. All other labels are optional.
+
+| Label                | Purpose                                                                    |
+| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `homarr.name`        | App or integration display name                                            |
+| `homarr.href`        | Address opened by the app and used as the suggested integration address    |
+| `homarr.group`       | Container section that receives the selected app and compatible widget     |
+| `homarr.icon`        | App icon URL                                                               |
+| `homarr.description` | App description                                                            |
+| `homarr.ping`        | Address used for app status checks                                         |
+| `homarr.id`          | Stable source identifier; defaults to the Docker container ID              |
+| `homarr.board`       | Intended board name; see [Board targeting](#board-targeting)               |
+| `homarr.integration` | Homarr integration kind, for example `sonarr`                              |
+| `homarr.widget`      | Homarr widget kind to add when it supports the selected integration        |
+| `homarr.hide`        | Excludes the container when this label is present, regardless of its value |
+
+Unknown integration and widget kinds are ignored. Do not put API keys, passwords, or other secrets in labels. Enter
+credentials in onboarding, where Homarr stores them using its normal encrypted integration-secret flow.
+
+## Compose example
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  sonarr:
+    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/sonarr:latest
+    labels:
+      homarr.name: "Sonarr"
+      homarr.href: "http://server.local:8989"
+      homarr.group: "Media"
+      homarr.icon: "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/homarr-labs/dashboard-icons/svg/sonarr.svg"
+      homarr.description: "TV library"
+      homarr.ping: "http://server.local:8989"
+      homarr.integration: "sonarr"
+      homarr.widget: "calendar"
+```
+
+Use an address that is reachable where it is needed. A Docker service name can work for server-side integration
+requests, while an app link opened in a browser usually needs a LAN hostname, IP address, or reverse-proxy address.
+Onboarding accepts these self-hosted address formats directly and only requires the field to be non-empty.
+
+## Homepage label fallback
+
+When `homarr.name` is absent, onboarding also understands these Homepage labels:
+
+- `homepage.name`
+- `homepage.href`
+- `homepage.group`
+- `homepage.icon`
+- `homepage.description`
+
+`homepage.name` and `homepage.href` are required for the fallback. Homarr does not combine partial Homarr metadata with
+Homepage metadata: once `homarr.name` is present, use `homarr.*` labels for the remaining fields too.
+
+## What onboarding creates
+
+In **Connect**, label-discovered apps and integrations appear before image-based suggestions. You can import multiple
+services in one pass and edit every suggested address. For image-matched apps, Homarr uses the detected service type
+when building host, subdomain, or reverse-proxy path suggestions.
+
+When setup completes, Homarr rechecks the selected container sources and then:
+
+- creates an app with its name, address, icon, description, and ping address;
+- creates the requested integration and links its app after you provide required credentials;
+- places grouped apps in a board container named by `homarr.group`;
+- places ungrouped apps in the main board area;
+- adds `homarr.widget` only when the widget kind is valid and compatible with the selected integration;
+- keeps image-based discovery available for unlabeled containers.
+
+If a selected container disappears, targets another board, or requests an incompatible widget, setup finishes with a
+warning instead of creating an invalid board item.
+
+## Board targeting
+
+On a fresh installation with one seeded `dashboard` board, one unique selected `homarr.board` value can name that first
+board. Otherwise, the label must match the board selected in onboarding. Services labeled for another board are skipped
+and reported in the completion warning.
+
+Onboarding configures one board at a time. Run normal board management after setup if you want to distribute services
+across several boards.

+
+### Advanced endpoint configuration
+
+Most users should use the comma-separated variables above. Use `DOCKER_ENDPOINTS` only when you need custom names, TLS, or restricted capabilities. It is a JSON array where every endpoint declares its identity, transport, and capabilities:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  homarr:
+    volumes:
+      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
+      - ./docker-ca.pem:/run/secrets/docker-ca.pem:ro

+            "transport": { "type": "socket", "path": "/var/run/docker.sock" },
+            "capabilities": ["inventory", "logs", "lifecycle", "remove"]
+          },
+          {
+            "id": "remote-read-only",

+              "caPath": "/run/secrets/docker-ca.pem"
+            },
+            "capabilities": ["inventory", "logs"]
+          }
+        ]
+```
+
+The stable `id` keeps containers from different endpoints distinct. `name` is shown in the interface, and `kind` can be `docker` or `podman`. Every endpoint must include the `inventory` capability; optionally add `logs`, `lifecycle`, and `remove`. Homarr hides or disables actions the endpoint does not allow and also enforces the same capabilities on the server.
+
+Supported transports are:
+
+- `socket`: an absolute in-container `path`
+- `tls`: `host`, `port`, and an absolute `caPath`; add both `certPath` and `keyPath` for mutual TLS
+- `tcp`: `host`, `port`, and the explicit acknowledgement `allowInsecure: true`
+
+The structured configuration refuses TCP unless `allowInsecure` is explicitly set to `true`. When `DOCKER_ENDPOINTS` is set, it takes precedence over `DOCKER_SOCKET_PATHS`, `DOCKER_HOSTNAMES`, and `DOCKER_PORTS`.
+
 ### Managing your Docker containers within Homarr
 
 Homarr allows you to interact with Docker containers running on your system.
+The collapsed **Assisted Docker setup** helper optionally compares visible containers with your existing Homarr apps and integrations. Open it only when you want setup suggestions; it never blocks normal container management. Every service stays distinct by Docker endpoint and container ID, including multiple containers that use the same integration type.
+
+Homarr can show a service as:
+
+- **Ready to connect** when its image or name matches a supported integration
+- **New service** when it can be added as an app but no integration is recognized
+- **Already represented** or **Linked** when an app or integration already matches
+- **Address changed** when a service appears to match an integration but its reachable address has changed
+
+Set the usual server address once, then choose whether services normally use different ports, subdomains, or paths. Homarr uses that pattern to prefill every detected service. Each suggestion has one editable URL field with the generated and Docker-reported addresses available as autocomplete options, so you can select a suggestion or type any address directly.
+
+:::info[Review before changing]
+Service discovery is read-only. Homarr never creates or changes an app or integration automatically. **Set up integration** opens the standard prefilled integration form, while **Create app** opens the existing Docker app form, so you can review and confirm the final setup.
+:::
+
+Suggestions appear as a compact task list. Expand an item only when you want to edit its URL or inspect relevant setup statuses. Use the filters to focus on services that need attention or those already represented in Homarr. Refresh runs discovery again. Dismissed suggestions are stored in the current browser using their endpoint-qualified service identity and can be restored from the same helper. If multiple existing items could match, Homarr marks the result as ambiguous and does not choose one automatically.
+
+Compact status icons summarize the setup information Homarr can act on. Unknown and non-applicable runtime layers are omitted to keep the helper focused; use the integration form's connection test or the relevant board action for live diagnostics.
+
+If one Docker endpoint is unavailable, Homarr reports that endpoint while continuing to show services from healthy endpoints. An unavailable endpoint is not treated as an empty Docker installation.

 ### API Key Format
 
@@ -72,6 +75,34 @@ API key authentication enables programmatic access for:
 - Custom dashboards and monitoring tools
 - Container orchestration systems that need to sync app definitions
 
+## Permissions
+
+API keys act as the user that created them, so every request is subject to that user's group
+permissions. A call that the user is not allowed to make returns `FORBIDDEN`, and list endpoints
+return only the records the user may see rather than failing.
+
+### App endpoints require app management access
+
+`GET /api/apps`, `GET /api/apps/paginated` and `GET /api/apps/search` (tRPC `app.all`,
+`app.getPaginated`, `app.search`) require the **modify all apps** permission. They previously
+returned the full app catalogue — including internal URLs — to any authenticated user.
+
+If a script that used to work now returns `FORBIDDEN`, grant **modify all apps** to a group the key
+owner belongs to, or switch to `GET /api/apps/selectable`, which returns the reduced fields used by
+board pickers.
+
+### Integration endpoints are filtered per key
+
+`integration.all`, `integration.allThatSupportSearch`, `integration.allOfGivenCategory` and
+`integration.search` filter server side. Without a global integration permission, a key only
+receives the integrations its owner has been granted access to, so responses may contain fewer
+records than before rather than returning an error. `integration.search` applies its `limit` after
+filtering, so a scoped key still receives a full page of results.
+
+Each returned integration carries a `permissions` object — check `hasUseAccess` before reading data
+and `hasInteractAccess` before performing actions; `false` means the key owner lacks that level for
+that integration, not that the call failed.

+Creating, duplicating, or reconfiguring a widget validates its integration selection on the server. The caller needs
+use access for each newly linked integration; unchanged links remain editable through normal board permissions.
+
+Board layout responses identify each layout with a `mobile`, `base`, or `custom` role. Mobile and Base are protected. Layout-saving clients must preserve existing roles, keep Mobile at breakpoint `0`, keep Base as the highest breakpoint, and use unique custom breakpoints between them. The layout save operation returns the canonical saved layouts, including server-generated IDs for new custom layouts. A non-Base layout can be regenerated from Base with the protected reset operation.
+
+The internal `board.getManageOverview` tRPC query returns compact board previews limited to 12 layout rows by default. Callers may provide `previewRowLimit` from 1 through 48; `fullPreview: true` requests the server's 48-row maximum.
+
 Use the interactive API reference to inspect the exact request body for each endpoint under the `boards` and `settings` tags.
 
+## Docker action payload migration
+
+Docker lifecycle and removal actions now identify each container with both its Docker endpoint and container ID. This is a
+breaking change for tRPC and MCP clients that previously sent an `ids` array to the start, stop, restart, or remove action.
+
+Replace the old payload:
+
+```json
+{ "ids": ["container-id"] }
+```
+
+with endpoint-qualified targets:
+
+```json
+{
+  "targets": [{ "endpointId": "local", "id": "container-id" }]
+}
+```
+
+Read `endpointId` and `id` from `docker.getContainers` (MCP tool `docker_getContainers`) immediately before the action.
+Pass those pairs unchanged to `docker.startAll`, `docker.stopAll`, `docker.restartAll`, or `docker.removeAll`; their MCP tool
+names use underscores, such as `docker_restartAll`. Endpoint qualification prevents identical container IDs on different
+Docker or Podman endpoints from targeting the wrong service.
+
+`docker.getContainers` also accepts an optional `endpointIds` array. Omit it or pass an empty array to query every configured
+Docker environment, or pass one or more IDs returned by `docker.getEndpoints` to query only those Dockerode clients. The
+Docker widget uses the same behavior for its environment selector.
+
+## Partial integration failures
+
+Multi-integration widget queries keep data from integrations that remain available. Calendar and media-server results include
+an optional `error` on a failed integration; media-request responses expose a `failedIntegrations` array, and the latest
+requests endpoint returns its items in `requests`. When every selected integration fails, the query returns an error instead
+of a partial response.
+
+Other widgets use the same settlement pattern with endpoint-specific shapes: a failed integration may appear as a named
+fallback row, in a failure array, or be omitted while healthy results remain. Widget pages should identify the shape they
+render rather than assuming every query exposes an `error` field.
+
+### Saving dashboard layouts
+
+The dashboard editor saves item positions and sections as one board update.
+Canvas height follows its content automatically and does not require a separate API setting.
+Responsive layouts store optional left and right gutter widths from zero to three columns.
+Gutter columns are reserved from the layout's total column count, and changing them reflows affected items.

+- `GET /api/custom-widgets/reference-schema`, `/reference-runtime`, and `/reference-security` return one authoring

+
+Retrieve the schema, component catalog, references, and examples only when needed. Preview creation returns separate
+`queries` and `actions` evidence lists. Each action includes its HTTP method, invocation parameters, minimum board
+permission, confirmation, and invalidated query IDs so clients can simulate and verify mutations before persistence.
+
+For an evidence-driven JSX correction, `customWidget_previewReviseTemplate` accepts only the preview session,
+optional expected revision, and `template` or `templateLines`. It inherits and fully revalidates the manifest, advances
+the session revision, and returns fresh query/action lists without echoing sources, requests, options, or secrets.
+`customWidget_createFromPreview` requires current-revision evidence for every query and action; simulated action checks
+count as evidence without executing the mutation.

+
+Every board has two protected layouts. Creating a board adds **Mobile** at `0px` with three columns and **Base** at
+`768px` with the column count you choose. Both layouts can be edited, but neither can be removed.
+
+Every `1 × 1` tile has a `200 × 200` logical-pixel content area.
+The `24` logical-pixel gap between tiles is separate from that size.
+A `2 × 1` tile therefore contains two fixed cell widths plus the gap between them.
+Widgets see their logical size, while the board's visual scale makes the complete layout larger or smaller.
+When fitting below 100%, Homarr keeps widget typography and control density at their normal readable size.
+On larger canvases, the complete board grows together like browser zoom.
+The complete canvas always fits the available width and never adds horizontal board scrolling.
+
+- **Mobile** starts at `0px` and uses three columns on new boards.
+- **Base** is the main layout and starts at `768px` on new boards.
+
+Mobile and Base can be renamed and their column counts can be changed, but they cannot be removed. Mobile has no fixed
+rails; rail configuration is available only on Base and custom layouts. You can add removable custom layouts at any
+unused breakpoint above Mobile.
+
+Each layout stores independent positions and sizes. Moving or resizing a widget while editing Mobile does not move it in
+Base or any custom layout. New custom layouts start from Base's current column count and rail widths; Homarr chooses an
+available breakpoint, and you can then change the breakpoint, columns, and rails.
+
+Older or incomplete boards are repaired automatically. A board with no layouts receives Mobile at `0px` with three
+columns and Base at `768px` with ten columns. A board with one layout keeps it as Base and receives a generated Mobile
+layout. When protected roles are missing from a board with multiple layouts, the narrowest becomes Mobile, the widest
+becomes Base, and intermediate layouts become custom. Once roles exist, breakpoint changes do not reassign them.
+Duplicate breakpoints are normalized without discarding saved positions.
+
+Use **Reset from Base** on Mobile or a custom layout to replace all of its positions and sizes with a newly generated version of Base. The layout's name, breakpoint, and column count are kept.
+
+The canvas is at least one window tall, even when it is empty.
+Its left and right edges are hard drag boundaries, while its bottom edge extends automatically as a tile is dragged or resized downward.
+Nested Containers keep their own resizable bounds.
+New items use their widget's default size and new Containers use a useful `4 × 3` size when space allows.

+The total number of columns in the layout. Changing it projects the saved positions and sizes into the new grid width without overlap.
+
+#### Fixed rails
+
+Each responsive layout can enable a fixed left rail, a fixed right rail, or both.
+Set a rail width to zero to disable it for that layout.
+Choose a width from one to three columns with the three-step slider.
+The preview shows how much space remains for the main canvas.
+
+Rail columns are reserved from the layout's total column count.
+For example, a 12-column layout with a two-column left rail leaves ten columns for the canvas.
+The combined rail widths cannot consume the final main-canvas column.
+Enabling or widening a rail reflows canvas items into the remaining columns.
+Disabling a rail moves its contents back into the next available canvas positions.
+
+Rails fill the available window height and remain fixed while the page scrolls. They do not grow or scroll independently.
+Apps, widgets, and Containers inside them still use the same fixed `200 × 200` cells and can be rearranged in edit mode, where each rail shows its name and boundary.
 
 #### Breakpoint
 
-Minimum width of the screen where the layout will be used.
-Once the minimum of the next layout is reached the layout will change.
+The minimum screen width where the layout is used; a layout is eligible at its breakpoint and above. Mobile is fixed at
+`0px`. Every other breakpoint must be unique, but Base and custom layouts can be ordered at any width. Homarr uses the
+eligible layout with the highest breakpoint, regardless of its role.
+When the initial viewport is not available, Homarr uses its remembered viewport information, client hints, or User-Agent
+fallback to select a layout.
+
+#### View and edit modes
+
+View mode renders a static board without executing the drag-and-drop editor.
+After the board is interactive, Homarr prepares the editor in the background for users who can modify it.
+Entering edit mode keeps the static board visible until that preparation finishes, then enables collision-aware movement and resizing.
+Collapsed Containers are expanded while editing so their contents and controls are reachable.
+
+<img
+  src={boardViewModeImage}
+  alt="A Homarr board in view mode with the dashboard canvas and static widgets visible"
+  style={{ maxWidth: "100%" }}
+/>
+
+Widget content is inert in edit mode, so dragging from the inert widget area moves the tile instead of activating the widget;
+settings and other controls remain usable in the compact header above the tile.
+A single compatible collision can swap two items when both resulting placements fit, including different-sized or lateral moves.
+For other collisions, or when a tile grows into occupied space, nearby tiles are compacted out of the way and collision chains reflow.
+The visible corner controls provide a 44-pixel resize target, and edge controls appear on hover for horizontal or vertical resizing.
+Resize handles stop at the tile's minimum allowed size while the pointer is still moving.
+Use the pencil button in the board header to enter edit mode; click it again to save. If you leave the page with unsaved
+changes, Homarr asks whether to discard them. If the editor cannot load, the board remains in view mode.
+
+<img
+  src={boardEditModeImage}
+  alt="Board in edit mode with the board header controls and editable dashboard tiles visible"
+  style={{ maxWidth: "100%" }}
+/>
+
+While edit mode is active, **Add board content** opens a menu for adding a widget, app, integration, or Container. The
+available actions respect the current user's permissions. Widget setup offers the main canvas, enabled rails, and existing
+Containers as destinations before the widget is created, so the common flow does not require a second move step.
+
+Hold `Ctrl` on Windows or Linux, or `⌘` on macOS, while clicking board items to select several at once. The selection
+toolbar can move the complete selection to another canvas, rail, or Container, delete it with an undo option, or clear the
+selection. A short tip appears after entering edit mode as a reminder of the modifier key. A move is applied only when every
+selected item fits in the destination.
+
+The widget editor also lists its selected integrations. Users with full access can choose **Edit connection** to test,
+diagnose, and repair an integration without leaving the board. A successful repair refreshes the affected widget; the
+saved integration changes apply everywhere that connection is used.
+
+Pointer users can drag from the inert widget area; interactive controls are excluded. Containers use the grab button at their top-left corner.
+Widgets can be resized from any edge or corner handle. Activate a Container's chrome with its top-left grip before using
+its resize handles.
+On a touch screen, press and hold a tile for about `200 ms` before moving it; a quick tap does not start a drag. Resize
+handles support direct touch input.
+Keyboard users can focus a tile, press Enter or Space to start editing, use the arrow keys to move it, and use Shift plus the arrow keys to resize it.
+Press Enter, Space, or Escape to stop keyboard editing.
+Keyboard moves and resizes apply immediately within the current canvas, rail, or Container; they cannot move an item
+between grids. Use pointer drag or **Move / resize item** for that.
+Escape stops keyboard editing without undoing those changes.
+During a pointer or touch interaction, Escape cancels the move or resize and restores the layout from before that interaction.
+Invalid, outside, or otherwise forbidden drops are cancelled in the same way.
+The **Move / resize item** action in the edit menu remains available for precise numeric input.

+
+Choose **Edit layout** to open the real board editor at that representative width on desktop. Save returns to Layout Settings. Cancel discards the local changes. On phones and tablets, the normal board editor continues to use the layout selected by the device width.
+
+### Containers and rails
+
+Containers can hold apps, widgets, and nested Containers.
+The same Container model works on the main canvas, inside a fixed rail, or inside another Container.
+Move and resize Containers directly in edit mode; nested content stays within the Container's local bounds.
+Resize outlines follow the pointer continuously while a dashed preview marks the grid size that will be applied on release.
+Each responsive layout stores its own Container position and size.
+
+Each Container can configure:
+
+- Its label and whether that label is visible.
+- Whether users can collapse and expand it like an accordion.
+- Whether its menu shows **Open all in new tabs** for the app links it contains.
+- Its border color and custom CSS classes.
+
+Collapsing a Container reduces its full-width header to a half-row expansion bar and compacts the surrounding layout without losing its expanded size.
+Expanding it smoothly restores those bounds and moves following items out of the way without reloading the widgets inside it.

 ## Create a Custom Widget with MCP
 
-1. Get the prompt, live schema, and component catalog.
-2. Read the external API documentation.
-3. Build one definition.
-4. Validate the definition without saving it.
-5. Create a preview session.
-6. Test the queries and actions.
-7. Open the preview URL with browser tools.
-8. Inspect the redacted journal and revise the local candidate until it is valid.
-9. Create the widget, including any source URLs and credentials the user already supplied.
-10. Otherwise, ask the user to configure the saved definition with the ten-minute Homarr source-setup URL.
-11. Create a final preview with the saved definition ID so Homarr loads its stored credentials, then test it again.
-12. Update the saved definition if the final verification finds a problem.
-13. Repeat the procedure for the next widget.
+Independent read-only discovery and reference calls can run together. Validation, preview, evidence, revision, and
+persistence calls run alone because each changes the active authoring phase.
+
+1. Load `customWidget_getSkill`. Use its routing index to fetch only applicable named references with
+   `customWidget_getReference`.
+2. For a new manifest, load the compact `schema` reference once; skip it when repairing a supplied valid v2 draft.
+   Load the heavyweight live schema only when its extra detail is needed. Prefer `customWidget_findComponents` for a focused release-matched
+   subset and reserve the full catalog for broad exploration, followed by `customWidget_getComponent` for only relevant
+   installed components and `customWidget_getExample` when one example matches the interaction pattern. Fetch whatever
+   named documentation the intended design requires without walking the whole catalog. If shared props are needed,
+   collect their catalog names and call `customWidget_getSharedProps` once for that set.
+3. Read the external API documentation.
+4. Build each definition, using `templateLines` for multiline JSX tool input. Call `customWidget_validateTemplate`
+   while drafting to repair JSX without resending the complete manifest. A valid template with an unknown-prop warning
+   keeps one concrete `customWidget_getComponent` repair lookup active; otherwise proceed directly to preview. Homarr
+   Assistant exposes only `templateLines` for validation and revision to prevent duplicate JSX tokens; direct MCP clients
+   may send exactly one of `template` or `templateLines`.
+5. Send the coherent complete definition once to `customWidget_previewCreate`. It performs full validation and creates
+   the preview session.
+6. Run `customWidget_previewQuery` for every query returned by the preview and inspect its actual status and data shape. Assistant conversations retain a bounded response preview so large APIs cannot exhaust the model context. Use
+   `{}` for load queries; manual queries require exactly the returned primitive `parameterNames`.
+7. Test every relevant action returned by the preview in simulation mode. Verify its method, parameters, minimum board
+   permission, confirmation, and invalidated queries before persistence.
+8. Open the returned preview path with browser tools.
+9. Inspect the redacted journal. For a JSX-only correction, validate the replacement template, then call
+   `customWidget_previewReviseTemplate` with the session ID. Direct MCP clients may also pass the returned current revision
+   for optimistic concurrency. It inherits sources, requests, options, and secrets without resending them, increments the
+   revision, and returns fresh evidence lists. Use a new
+   `customWidget_previewCreate` session only when sources, requests, or options change.
+10. Retest every returned query and action for the current revision. Earlier evidence remains in the journal but cannot
+    satisfy persistence.
+11. Create the widget from that final tested preview with `customWidget_createFromPreview`. The preview session already carries
+    the source URLs and encrypted credentials supplied during preview; the create call accepts only its session ID plus an
+    optional target board and persists that tested preview only after every query and action has current evidence.
+12. Open its returned management path, and use a structured question when the user must choose whether to place it on a board.
+13. Otherwise, ask the user to configure the saved definition with the ten-minute Homarr source-setup URL.
+14. Create a final preview with the saved definition ID so Homarr loads its stored credentials, then test it again.
+15. Update the saved definition if the final verification finds a problem. `customWidget_update` also accepts
+    `templateLines` for multiline JSX without resetting omitted options.
+16. Repeat the independent preview and persistence lifecycle for every widget in the requested set.
+
+Template validation returns focused diagnostics. Preview creation and template revision return session metadata plus
+query/action checklists without echoing the definition. Keep the candidate locally and reuse the preview session for
+persistence.
+
+For numeric API enums, prefer a guarded indexed literal label array in JSX over repeating a long ternary chain. The
+interpreter validates this pattern independently, and it keeps generated templates and repair calls substantially
+smaller while still rendering readable statuses.
+
+A manual `SubFetch` returns to its trigger immediately when its request ID, parameters, or effective definition
+changes. Homarr hides the earlier result and does not fetch the new parameters until the user triggers it again, so
+bound search and pagination edits cannot silently relabel stale results.
+
+Dependent bound controls can reset declaratively: `<Pagination bind="page" defaultValue={1} resetKey={inputs.search} />`
+returns to page 1 whenever the scalar search value changes. The reset remains local and does not execute a request.

It saves every response, validated widget manifest, and detailed category scores under `packages/custom-widgets/.ai-evaluations/`.

-`CUSTOM_WIDGET_AI_MAX_LOOPS`. Generated artifacts are local and ignored by Git; promote a reviewed, validated result
-into the bundled-widget source deliberately.
-
-The reference API check uses a real PokeAPI list/detail request and a read-only Portainer container query when `PORTAINER_BASE_URL` and `PORTAINER_API_KEY` are set. Use `pnpm --filter @homarr/custom-widgets test:reference-apis -- --pokeapi-only` for the public PokeAPI check alone. To exercise start, restart, and stop against a disposable container, also set `PORTAINER_TEST_CONTAINER_ID` and the explicit safeguard `PORTAINER_ALLOW_MUTATIONS=1`; the script restores the container's original running state.

+- `SubFetch`, `ActionButton`, and `ToggleSwitch` require a quoted literal `requestId`. Independent JSX validation rejects

+- `ActionButton` and `ToggleSwitch` run actions only when the widget is mounted outside edit mode. A toggle needs both

 ## Import and Workshop
 
-The install flow always links to the corresponding public Workshop entry using `WORKSHOP_WEB_URL`. Import confirmation shows origins, authentication modes, network scopes, methods, actions, and permissions. Every source has a suggested URL, but private and loopback sources must be confirmed or replaced for the current Homarr installation. The same screen accepts API keys, tokens, usernames, and passwords; credentials remain optional at install time and missing values stay visible on the Custom Widgets page.

-For example, installing **Tautulli Activity** asks for both the user's Tautulli URL and API key. A stable public source such as PokéAPI keeps its published URL without creating unnecessary setup work.

-Connected agents can search, inspect, and install Workshop widgets with `customWidget_workshopSearch`, `customWidget_workshopGet`, and `customWidget_workshopInstall`. After installation they can set a source URL and credentials with `customWidget_sourceConfigure`, or create a secure user-facing setup URL with `customWidget_configurationRequestUser`. Secret values are never returned through MCP.

-These tools are only exposed to API keys owned by Homarr administrators. Opening and completing a source-configuration

+also use structured `json` and `multiSelect` option values, for example `{ "entity_ids": { "$option": "entities" } }`.
 
 ## Protection
 
 Every request uses Homarr's existing server executor: same-origin source enforcement, network scope, DNS and redirect validation, SSRF protection, board permissions, rate and request limits, body and response limits, timeouts, and encrypted credential injection. Static headers cannot override credentials, cookies, routing, proxy, forwarding, or hop-by-hop headers.
 
+The executor caps request bodies at 10 KiB and response bodies at 1 MiB. Parsed JSON is limited to depth 32 and 50,000 nodes;
+each network hop has a ten-second timeout, queries follow at most three same-origin redirects, actions do not follow redirects,
+and the total request deadline is 45 seconds.
+
+The limiter allows four concurrent requests per user/item and eight per definition. Per minute, a user/item can make up to 60
+queries, 10 actions, or 3 DELETE actions; a definition can receive up to 240, 40, or 12 of those request categories.
+
 Queries default to view permission and actions to modify. DELETE always requires full permission and confirmation. Actions are never cached, retried, or run on load.
 
 Management and runtime are intentionally separate. A Homarr administrator with board-modify permission places and
 configures the widget. After placement, query and action authorization follows the request's board permission. Public
 boards may execute queries for anonymous viewers, but mutations stay authenticated. This includes shared-cache

+## Opening the logs page
+
+Navigate to **Management** > **Tools** > **Logs**. The page and widget log links are only available to users with the
+**View logs** permission.
+
+When a widget reports an error, **Check logs for more details** opens the logs page in a new tab and marks the time when
+the widget displayed the error. The related server error normally appears immediately above that marker. If those logs
+have already been removed from the retained history, the marker explains that they are no longer available.
+
+## Retained and live logs
+
+Homarr retains the latest 5,000 log events in Redis. Opening the page first loads this history and then continues with
+live events without a gap. The history is bounded, so older events are removed automatically.
+
+The history survives normal application restarts when the configured Redis instance persists its data. For complete
+platform-level history, startup failures, or events older than the retained limit, use the logs provided by Docker or

+   release-matched result set; reserve the full catalog for broad exploration. Fetch only relevant installed component
+   documentation with `customWidget_getComponents` (or `customWidget_getComponent` for one repair) and, when useful,
+   one interaction example with `customWidget_getExample`. Component results contain component-specific props; collect
+   any needed shared prop names from the compact catalog and fetch them together once with `customWidget_getSharedProps`.
+3. Build each Custom Widget definition. Use `templateLines` for generated multiline JSX and
+   `customWidget_validateTemplate` for focused JSX diagnostics without resending the complete manifest.
+4. Send the coherent complete definition once to `customWidget_previewCreate`; preview creation performs full
+   validation and creates the testable preview.
+5. Call `customWidget_previewQuery` for every entry in the returned `queries` list. Supply the listed invocation
+   parameters for manual queries and inspect the real HTTP status and response shape before binding template fields.
+6. Test every relevant entry in the returned `actions` list with `customWidget_previewAction` in simulation mode. The
+   list exposes each action's method, parameters, minimum board permission, confirmation, and invalidated queries.
+7. Open the returned `previewPath` or `previewUrl`.
+8. Examine `customWidget_previewJournal`.
+9. For a JSX-only evidence correction, validate it and call `customWidget_previewReviseTemplate` with the session ID
+   and revision. It inherits the manifest and returns fresh evidence lists without resending sources, requests, or
+   options. Create another preview only when those manifest sections change.
+10. Retest every returned query and action for the current revision, then call `customWidget_createFromPreview` with
+    the session ID so the definition is not streamed again.
+11. Open the returned `managementPath` to review the exact saved definition.
+12. If the user must enter the source URL or credentials, call `customWidget_configurationRequestUser` with the new definition ID and wait for completion.
+13. Create a final preview with that definition ID so Homarr loads its stored credentials, then test it again.
+14. Use `customWidget_update` or `customWidget_templatePatch` for any final saved-definition corrections.
+15. Repeat the independent preview and persistence lifecycle for every definition in the requested set.
+
+Validation, preview creation, and template revision return compact lifecycle metadata. They do not echo the submitted
+widget or duplicate its template as both a string and line array; the agent should retain and reuse its local candidate.
 
 The agent receives the configuration-request status. The agent does not receive plaintext credentials. A preview-scoped setup URL configures only that temporary preview; use a definition-scoped URL when the values must persist.
