Stable release consolidating the v1.2.4 beta cycle (1.2.4.1-beta and 1.2.4.2-beta) into 1.2.5.
Highlights:
- Apps dashboard: single launcher for every LXC-registered app and user-defined Custom Web Link, with category badges, search, sort and one-click deep-links back to the guest modal.
- LXC Apps & Updates end-to-end: App tab inside every guest modal, upstream version tracking, and Easy Updates that cover OS packages, registered apps, Docker Engine and per-image updates on the same 24-hour cycle.
- Application detection catalog with 380+ tracked workloads generated live from community-scripts across seven detector methods.
- Monitor now speaks 8 languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Slovak and Swedish (i18n scaffolding by @vaso73).
- NVIDIA multi-GPU passthrough by exact BDF so one card can be assigned to a VM while another stays operational on the host or LXC.
- Navigation reorder, Memory & Swap real memory-pressure signal, native Pushover channel, Actions API, plus wide-reaching improvements across health, hardware, network, backup and post-install.
Full release notes: see CHANGELOG.md and https://github.com/MacRimi/ProxMenux/releases
- add an apt-listchanges notification event that surfaces package-maintainer NEWS forwarded through the PVE mail queue, with its own template, emoji and per-locale label
- emit a single post_install_update event when a tool exposes a newer version, and persist per-tool notified versions on disk so a Monitor restart no longer re-fires the same update announcement
- force AI enrichment to formatting-only on availability notices (update_available / pve_update / proxmenux_update / post_install_update / apt_listchanges / lxc_updates_available / secure_gateway_update_available / nvidia_driver_update_available / coral_driver_update_available / app_update_available / docker_stack_update_available / update_summary) so translations never turn factual inventories into advice
- add the apt_listchanges channel label to Monitor UI strings across the eight locales
- rewrite the 15 post-install pages and the 3 hardware GPU pages so they reflect the current scripts (reversibility, tracked-tool counts, kernel parameters, per-tool commands, Alpine LXC propagation flow)
- migrate the legacy step-badge helper on post-install/optional and create-vm/synology to the canonical pill component, with the stepLabel key added in each locale
- fix rich-text i18n calls missing helpers across network, automated, optional, security, customization and the post-install landing pages, and escape the `<iface>` placeholder in automated so intl no longer parses it as a tag
- remove the mouse-follow blue overlay from the docs landing layout
- reposition the App-tab Edit button and stack the Search and Register controls vertically on mobile
- move the Bulk update Configure/Edit control into the section header so it behaves the same on desktop and mobile
- show a spinner during the final autoremove/autoclean pass of update-pve-safe so the cleanup step reads as active instead of silent
- restyle the shell spinner and msg_info in a distinctive purple and drop the unused msg_lang duplicate
- add a web-docs i18n build script and its CI workflow, plus tests for the pushover notification channel
- Generate and ship a verified 389-app tracking catalog with 23 runtime overrides, fallback detectors, ports, logos, and Docker Hub tag previews.
- Support modern Proxmox VE Helper-Scripts markers, historical installations, and official or manual app deployments.
- Rework the LXC App and Updates tabs with cached suggestions, explicit discovery, version tracking, web links, custom updaters, and complete i18n.
- Add independent OS, app, Docker Engine, Docker image, bulk, and scheduled update targets.
- Add digest-based Docker inventory, Compose dependency grouping, safe standalone-container recreation with rollback, and package-scoped Docker Engine updates.
- Refresh per-LXC caches after lifecycle and update tasks, then emit idempotent notifications based on the verified final state.
- Harden Coral USB recovery by removing orphaned gasket DKMS registrations and validating that dpkg is healthy before reporting success.
Backend keeps every guest's modal payload (details, backups, apps, schedule, mount points) warm in-memory and exposes them through a single `/api/vms/modal-cache-all` endpoint. The dashboard hydrates its entire modal cache from that one request on page load, so opening any guest — first click or after coming back later — renders instantly. Replaces ~84 per-guest fetches with 1.
Updates tab
- Unified OS + Application update card with per-section Apply buttons
and a combined "Apply OS + <app>" footer button
- Helper-scripts install detection: uses helper_slug from managed_installs
cache (hostname fuzzy-match against helpers_cache) so the button
surfaces even when /usr/bin/update was removed
- Runs the community-scripts helper INSIDE the CT via pct exec so
build.func picks the silent update path (PHS_SILENT=1) instead of the
install menu — works with and without /usr/bin/update
- HELPER_SLUG env passthrough from backend to apply_updates.sh: falls
back to constructing the ct/<slug>.sh URL when the CT no longer
carries the marker file
- Post-apply state refresh via managed_installs.check_for_updates(force)
in the /applied hook so the badge updates without a manual reload
Options card
- Rewrote as view / edit mode split with a single Edit button
- Unified apply defaults (snapshot + storage + restart) shared by
manual and scheduled runs
- Scheduled updates (M5): cron picker + preset dropdown + What-to-update
target + Delete schedule button, wired to a background scheduler thread
that fires apply_updates.sh headless with the schedule's env vars
- External host cron detection with variant + scope reporting
(tteck-legacy / community-scripts / custom, OS-only), shown as an
informational chip only in edit mode
App tab editor
- Multi-app registration with per-app upstream tracking method
(github / http_json / docker_hub)
- Card-contrast pattern in edit mode (bg-card + bg-background inputs)
- Auto-heal for missing installed_version via alt_detectors +
file_fallbacks
Curated tracking hints (M6)
- Add http_json upstream for Plex (plex.tv API)
- Add binary+github hints for Emby (MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases) and
PhotoPrism (photoprism/photoprism)
- Extend CI merge whitelist with upstream_type / upstream_url /
upstream_json_path / docker_image
Tab reorder
- LXC modal tabs: Status | App | Updates | Mounts | Backups | Firewall
apply_updates.sh
- New helper execution path: parse ct/<slug>.sh URL, run inside CT
with PHS_SILENT=1, respecting HELPER_SLUG fallback when
/usr/bin/update is missing
