Project State -- Unraid Docker Manager

Current Position

• Milestone: v1.4 Unraid API Native
• Phase: 16 of 18 (API Migration) - In Progress (2/5 plans)
• Status: Phase 16 in progress, 16-01 and 16-04 complete
• Last activity: 2026-02-09 — Phase 16-01 complete (container status queries migrated)

Project Reference

See: .planning/PROJECT.md (updated 2026-02-09)

Core value: When you get a container update notification or notice a service is down, you can immediately investigate and act from your phone.

Current focus: v1.4 Unraid API Native — replace Docker socket proxy with Unraid GraphQL API

Progress

v1.0: [**********] 100% SHIPPED (Phases 1-5, 12 plans)
v1.1: [**********] 100% SHIPPED (Phases 6-9, 11 plans)
v1.2: [**********] 100% SHIPPED (Phases 10-13 + 10.1-10.2, 25 plans)
v1.3: [**********] 100% SHIPPED (Phase 14, 2 plans — descoped)

Accumulated Context

Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table. Key decisions from v1.3 and v1.4 planning:

• [v1.4] Remove container logs feature entirely (not valuable enough to justify hybrid architecture)
• [v1.4] Remove docker-socket-proxy completely (clean single-API architecture)
• [v1.3] Descope to Phase 14 only — Phases 15-16 superseded by v1.4 Unraid API Native
• [v1.3] myunraid.net cloud relay for Unraid API (direct LAN IP fails due to nginx redirect)
• [v1.3] Environment variables for Unraid API auth (more reliable than n8n Header Auth)
• [Phase 15-02]: GraphQL normalizer keeps full Unraid PrefixedID (Container ID Registry handles translation)
• [Phase 15-02]: ALREADY_IN_STATE error maps to HTTP 304 (matches Docker API pattern)
• [Phase 15-02]: 15-second timeout for myunraid.net cloud relay (200-500ms latency + safety margin)
• [Phase 15]: Token encoder uses 8-char hex (not base64) for deterministic collision avoidance via hash window offsets
• [Phase 15]: Container ID Registry stores full PrefixedID (129-char) as-is for downstream consumers
• [Phase 16-01]: Use inline Code nodes for normalizer and registry updates (sub-workflows cannot cross-reference parent workflow utility nodes)
• [Phase 16-01]: Same GraphQL query for all 3 status paths (downstream Code nodes filter/process as needed)
• [Phase 16-01]: Update Container ID Registry after every status query (keeps mapping fresh for mutations)
• [Phase 16-04]: 5 identical normalizer nodes per query path (n8n architectural constraint)
• [Phase 16-04]: 15-second timeout for myunraid.net cloud relay (200-500ms latency + safety margin)

Pending Todos

None.

Blockers/Concerns

v1.4 architectural risks (from research):

• Container ID format translation critical (Docker 64-char hex vs Unraid 129-char PrefixedID)
• Telegram callback data 64-byte limit with longer IDs requires encoding redesign
• GraphQL response normalization must prevent cascading failures across 60+ Code nodes
• myunraid.net cloud relay adds 200-500ms latency (timeout configuration needed)

Next phase readiness:

• Phase 15 complete (both plans) — All infrastructure utility nodes ready
• Phase 16 (API Migration) in progress — 16-01 and 16-04 complete, 3 plans remaining
• Complete utility node suite: Container ID Registry, Token Encoder/Decoder, GraphQL Normalizer, Error Handler
• No blockers
