The change journal exists so a sysadmin sees what ProxMenux changed on the host — its own configuration, packages and services — not how it uses the host or configures a guest. Several scripts recorded operations that are neither: disk passthrough to a VM, container conversions, VM import/export, mounting a share into an LXC. Those are restored to their original, uninstrumented form. Scripts that operate on the host while also installing a package now record only the package: format-disk keeps its exFAT-tools install, the UUP ISO builder its build dependencies, and the share/host scripts their packages, services and /etc/fstab writes, while the mount and unmount operations they used to log are dropped.
The page now reads in three sections: what ProxMenux optimized after install (each function under its menu name), what its other host scripts changed (by script), and what it installed (packages and utilities, each referencing the script that installed it). A file reads as created or modified with its diff, a service shows its state transition, and the undo line appears only when a revert is possible.
ProxMenux modifies the host: it rewrites configuration files, installs packages, enables services. Until now nobody could say afterwards what had changed, and showing the script does not answer that question — a four-hundred-line function may alter two values, and the reader has no way to know which two. This adds the two halves of an answer.
The change journal records what ProxMenux does as it does it. Eleven bash primitives capture the previous state, apply the change and record it in the same step, writing to a spool that the Monitor reads back. One hundred and thirteen functions across twenty-five scripts are instrumented, covering post-install, shared storage, security tooling, container conversions, disk operations and the PVE 8 to 9 upgrade path. The page shows the difference — rotate 7 becoming rotate 14 — and never the script. Restore and backup scripts are deliberately left out: a restore puts the host back to a state some other script already recorded.
The Audit and reports page answers the other half: what state is this host in, regardless of who put it there. Forty-three checks across seven areas read the host and classify each result as critical, warning, observation, conformant, unverified or not applicable, with the evidence they read attached to each one. A declared policy lets the reader say what this particular host is expected to do — which guests must have a backup, which storages are essential — so the report judges the host against its own intent rather than a generic template. An inventory records the hardware, network and guest topology behind those readings, a comparison shows what moved between two runs, and six report profiles produce a printable document scoped to what the reader needs. Everything is available in the eight supported languages.

Restores AI Assistant support for OpenAI-compatible endpoints on private IPs, loopback
and Docker networks (LiteLLM, LM Studio, LocalAI, vLLM, OmniRoute, self-hosted proxies)
and surfaces the server's error under the Load button (#325). Aligns the Secure Gateway
wizard's Alpine template selection and pct create with the host's real architecture on
x86_64 and arm64 (#324). Consolidates changes landing on develop: atomic notification
delivery, custom SSH port for Borg remote targets (#236), optional GitHub API token for
app version tracking (#306), and richer replication failure notifications.
feat(host-backup): custom SSH port for Borg remote targets
Add Borg destinations no longer assume port 22. The Monitor form and
the shell TUI both take an optional port (default 22, range 1-65535)
and embed it in the persisted ssh://user@host:port/path URL. BORG_RSH,
the sshpass key installer and the capacity probe all honour it.
Reported by @songochain in #236 — NAS-style Borg hosts on non-standard
SSH ports are now first-class targets.
Existing borg-targets.txt entries without a port keep working; the
port is only serialised into the URL when it differs from 22.
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
- centralize the app version in a new `AppImage/lib/version.ts` — the dashboard footer, SMART report footer and release-notes modal all read from a single export, so a future bump only has to touch version.ts, package.json and beta_version.txt
- roll `package.json` and `package-lock.json` to `1.2.4.2-beta` (the lockfile was still stuck on the stale `1.2.2.2-beta` marker)
- move the previous `1.2.4.1-beta` feature list into the modal's historical CHANGELOG under its August 17, 2026 date so navigating "Anterior/Próximo" still walks through the complete history
- write the four new What's New entries for the ongoing 1.2.4.2 cycle: smarter LXC app detection (Docker promoted as parent workload during cold start, unregistered suggestions cached at startup, on-demand catalog scan), end-to-end Docker updates (Engine + per-image tracking on the 24h cycle with a "Check now" action), the 380+ workload detection catalog built from the live community-scripts source, and Pushover joining Telegram/Gotify/Discord/Email/Apprise as a native notification channel
- add the four new i18n keys (appDetection, dockerUpdates, appCatalog, pushover) to all eight bundled locales — en and es curated, the six remaining kept in English until the docs-i18n workflow retranslates them
- 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.
- **VM/LXC modal** — PVE tags (dots on list cards, editable pills in modal with click-to-edit) using NVIDIA-style hash colour and SAPC contrast; Status tab redesign (single card, always-visible subsections, Edit button, autostart toggle, blue subsection icons); Backups and Firewall tabs now fill the full modal height with sticky headers/notes; stopped VMs no longer shift the metrics grid; mount-point card brightness unified across breakpoints.
- **Disks modal** — Overview / SMART / History / Schedule tabs adopt the VM/LXC modal size and the mobile icon-only tab pattern; SMART attributes table drops the 15-row cap and gains a sticky "View full SMART report" footer; Print/Save-as-PDF collapses to two icons in the report; loose i18n and layout follow-ups.
- **NVIDIA driver installer (#298)** — version picker cross-checks kernel + NVIDIA's Production/New Feature/Legacy branch classification (scraped from `nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/`) + the PCI Device IDs of every host GPU, with a release-count heuristic to keep superseded production branches selectable while dropping Vulkan-beta ones; Recommended follows same-branch head when a driver is installed, Production Branch head on a fresh install; Hardware card now shows installed alongside available driver version.
- **Custom notifications (#297)** — `event_type: "custom"` accepts `title`/`message` at the root or nested under `data`; defensive strip of stray `[TITLE]`/`[BODY]` markers echoed by the AI enhancer.
- **App tab** — new "Exclude from the LXC updates counter" toggle; the CT's aggregate updates badge now sums OS packages plus registered apps (respecting the flag); Docs page updated; App suggestion no longer treats bare OS helper slugs (alpine/ubuntu/debian…) as installable apps.
- **i18n and copy** — Monitor UI available in EN / ES / DE / FR / IT / PT / SV / SK (thanks @vaso73) surfaced as the first entry in the What's New modal with a link to the contributor's profile; ES cleanup pass (`Historial`, `Velocidad de rotación`, `Consumo actual`, `Ejecutar`, `Eliminar`, `Activar`, `Ver contenido`, `Repuesto disp.`, `Registrar`, `Ocultar`, `Descartar`); redundant "Tip: search any Linux/Proxmox command" line removed from the terminal command search across all locales.
Modal caches now refresh on events only — the periodic prewarmer runs one-shot at startup, mount points split into static/runtime endpoints, and backups get a client 6-hour gate. Updates tab shows post-apply feedback and the script terminal no longer closes the parent modal. Settings adds edit gating on 3 cards with the 3-level contrast rule applied consistently. ES translation batch (~25 fixes) and What's New for 1.2.4.1-beta refreshed.
## i18n
- Swedish (sv) wired end-to-end: `MESSAGE_CATALOG` in `provider.tsx` now imports `sv/common.json`; `SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES` reordered as English + alphabetical native and all eight locales marked complete.
- Settings → Interface language: the per-locale status cards grid is retired now that all eight locales are populated end-to-end; the dropdown selector is the only control.
- CLI change-language dialog (`scripts/menus/config_menu.sh`) picks up Swedish and matches the Monitor ordering.
- Spanish catalog: label polish across the dashboard — *VM y LXC activos* / *11 VMs* / *11 detenidos*, LXC modal tabs shortened to *App / Actualiz. / Montajes / Copias*, *Limpiar / Cerrar* replacing the wrong *Claro / Cerca* in terminal controls, *En ejecución / Ejecutar* replacing the literal *Correr*.
- Cross-locale normalisation across ES / DE / FR / IT / PT / SK / SV: *OK* / *Proxmox System Dashboard* / *Warn* labels stay consistent, *AVG / MAX / MIN* kept verbatim as universal abbreviations so the stats row no longer overflows.
- Tailscale brand preserved verbatim across ES / FR / IT / PT — previous machine-translated variants like *"escala trasera"* / *"à grande échelle"* restored.
## Docs
- `ROADMAP.md` rewritten as a short invitation to the [ProxMenux Roadmap project board](https://github.com/users/MacRimi/projects/1). `ROADMAP.es.md` removed — it mirrored the same outdated version-milestone plan and the docs site keeps the Spanish surface for users who need it.
- `release.md` annotated with nine pending sections for the v1.2.4.1 beta cycle.
## AppImage
- `ProxMenux-1.2.4.1-beta.AppImage` replaces the previous `ProxMenux-1.2.4.AppImage`. Sidecar `ProxMenux-Monitor.AppImage.sha256` regenerated.
Rebuild of the 7 supported translation catalogs (ES/DE/FR/IT/PT/SK/SV) covering Monitor (`AppImage/messages/<lang>/common.json`, 3903 keys each) and CLI (`lang/<lang>.json`, 5272 keys each). Swedish (sv) is added as a new locale end-to-end.
Add the Monitor dashboard i18n provider, supported language metadata, message catalogs, fallback behavior, and the initial language selector/wiring for the AppImage UI.
