[CRITICAL_DESIGN_RULES]
# DO NOT BREAK THESE - Latest standards as of 2025-11-07
bash_strict_mode: "set -eo pipefail" (NOT -euo - -u is too strict)
cancel_buttons: MANDATORY - Every menu must have "0) Cancel", every input must accept "0"
grep_pattern: Always add "|| true" to grep/find that might not match
unbound_vars: Use ${var:-} or ${var:-default} for potentially unbound variables
arithmetic: Use current=$((current + 1)) NOT ((current++))
output_suppression: NEVER use { } >/dev/null on critical functions (breaks variable assignment)
module_isolation: Modules run in subshells with cleared SYS_* environment
press_enter: ALWAYS call press_enter at end of scripts before exit
messaging: Use print_success, print_error, print_warning, print_info (NOT echo)
[CANCEL_BUTTON_STANDARD]
# MANDATORY as of 2025-11-07 - ALL scripts must support cancellation
menu_format: |
echo " 1) Option One"
echo " 2) Option Two"
echo " 0) Cancel and return to menu" # REQUIRED
echo ""
read -p "Select option: " choice
case $choice in
0)
echo "Operation cancelled."
press_enter
exit 0
;;
# ... other options
esac
text_input_format: |
echo -n "Enter value (or 0 to cancel): "
read -r value
if [ -z "$value" ] || [ "$value" = "0" ]; then
echo "Operation cancelled."
press_enter
exit 0
fi
rationale: Users must NEVER be trapped in a prompt - always provide escape route

[WORDPRESS_CRON_MANAGER]
# New feature added 2025-11-07
location: modules/website/wordpress/wordpress-cron-manager.sh
purpose: Convert WordPress wp-cron to real system cron jobs
features:
- Scan for all WordPress installations
- Disable wp-cron per domain/user/server-wide
- Add staggered system cron jobs (load distribution)
- Revert to wp-cron
- Check status
staggered_timing:
purpose: Distribute cron load across 15-minute window
pattern: Site 1=0,15,30,45 | Site 2=1,16,31,46 | Site 3=2,17,32,47
formula: minute = (offset % 15), offset increments per site
result: 300 sites = 20 sites per minute (manageable load)
wp-config_modification:
function: disable_wpcron_in_config()
location: Before "/* That's all, stop editing! */" comment (proper WordPress convention)
fallback: After <?php tag if "stop editing" not found
adds: define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true);
safety: Removes existing entries first, backup created, verification, rollback on failure
format: User crontabs (crontab -u $user) not system crontab
domain_lookup_method:
# Fixed 2025-11-10 - Two-step lookup process
method_1: Check main_domain in /var/cpanel/userdata/*/main files (YAML: main_domain:)
method_2: Fallback to search domain-specific files for servername (YAML: servername:)
skip_files: "*.cache, */main, */cache, */cache.json"
rationale: cPanel stores main_domain in main files, servername in domain-specific files
cron_job_format: |
0,15,30,45 * * * * cd /home/user/public_html && /usr/bin/php -q wp-cron.php >/dev/null 2>&1
options:
1: Scan for WordPress installations
2: Disable wp-cron for specific domain
3: Disable wp-cron for specific user (all their WP sites)
4: Disable wp-cron server-wide (all WordPress sites)
5: Check wp-cron status
6: Re-enable wp-cron for specific domain
7: Re-enable wp-cron for specific user
8: Re-enable wp-cron server-wide
0: Return to menu (cancel)

commit: [pending]
date: 2025-11-13
title: Complete security intelligence overhaul - Live monitor 2.0
files: lib/bot-signatures.sh, lib/attack-patterns.sh, lib/ip-reputation.sh, modules/security/live-attack-monitor.sh
changes:
- Created lib/bot-signatures.sh (shared bot classification for 60+ bots)
- Created lib/attack-patterns.sh (shared attack detection for 7 attack types)
- Enhanced lib/ip-reputation.sh with ban tracking and CSF/iptables integration
- Updated IP reputation DB format to include BAN_COUNT and LAST_BAN fields
- Completely rewrote live-attack-monitor.sh as "Intelligence Mode"

# Latest changes (2025-11-12)
commit: d5eb8c7
date: 2025-11-12
title: Fix ImunifyAV output parsing in malware scanner
files: modules/security/malware-scanner.sh
changes:
- Fixed incorrect scan result retrieval (was getting oldest scan instead of newest)
- Changed tail -1 to tail -n +2 | head -1 (skip header, get most recent scan)
- Extract TOTAL_MALICIOUS from scan result directly (field 12)
- Added number validation to ImunifyAV, ClamAV, and Maldet parsers

[BUGS_FIXED_HISTORY]
# Historical bug fixes - DO NOT REINTRODUCE
BUG_014: ImunifyAV scan results parsing incorrect
issue: Used tail -1 to get "last scan" but ImunifyAV lists newest first, so was getting oldest scan
issue: Was reading wrong/stale scan results showing unrealistic file counts
fix: Changed to tail -n +2 | head -1 (skip header, get first data line = newest scan)
fix: Extract TOTAL_MALICIOUS (field 12) directly from scan result instead of separate query
fix: Added validation to ensure parsed values are numbers
location: modules/security/malware-scanner.sh:673-692
tested: 2025-11-12 - Correctly shows 3997 files in 69s (not millions in seconds)

# Quick onboarding for new developers
step1_read_this_section_first: |
This is the Server Management Toolkit.
This file (REFDB_FORMAT.txt) is the primary reference document.
README.md is for end users, this file is for developers.
step2_understand_current_state: |
Read [STATUS_SNAPSHOT_2025_11_07] to know what works.
Read [CRITICAL_DESIGN_RULES] - these are mandatory.
Read [CANCEL_BUTTON_STANDARD] - every script must have this.
step3_file_locations: |
Use [KEY_FILES_QUICK_MAP] to find things fast.
Use [DIRECTORY_STRUCTURE_2025_11_07] for overall layout.
step4_making_changes: |
Follow [MODULE_TEMPLATE] for new scripts.
Follow [GIT_WORKFLOW] for commits.
Check [TESTING_CHECKLIST] before committing.
step5_update_this_file: |
After making changes, update:
- [STATUS_SNAPSHOT_2025_11_07]
- [RECENT_COMMITS]
- [NEXT_PRIORITIES_2025_11_07]
- [META] updated date
critical_rules_never_break:
- Every menu MUST have "0) Cancel"
- Every text input MUST accept "0" to cancel
- Always call press_enter() at script end
- Use print_* functions not echo for status
- Add || true to grep/find that might not match
- Never use set -u (too strict)
- Never use { } >/dev/null on critical functions

# MAJOR REFACTORING: 2025-11-19
# Supporting cPanel, Plesk, InterWorx, and standalone Apache
status: 38/38 modules complete (100% DONE!)
updated: 2025-11-19
completion_date: 2025-11-19
# Control Panel Support Levels
panels:
cpanel: Full support (primary platform)
interworx: In progress (phases 1-3 complete)
plesk: Partial support (needs expansion)
standalone: Basic support (no control panel)
# CRITICAL PATH DIFFERENCES (MUST MEMORIZE)
paths:
docroot:
cpanel: /home/USER/public_html
interworx: /home/USER/DOMAIN/html
plesk: /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs
access_logs:
cpanel: /var/log/apache2/domlogs/DOMAIN
interworx: /home/USER/var/DOMAIN/logs/transfer.log # VERIFIED: InterWorx uses 'transfer.log' not 'access_log'
plesk: /var/www/vhosts/system/DOMAIN/logs/access_log

interworx: /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost_*.conf
plesk: plesk bin commands
domain_map:
cpanel: /etc/userdatadomains
interworx: vhost configs + SuexecUserGroup
plesk: plesk bin subscription --info
# CRITICAL DATABASE PREFIX PATTERN (MOST IMPORTANT!)
database_prefixes:
cpanel: username_dbname
interworx: username_dbname # SAME AS CPANEL! (verified from official docs)
plesk: appname_RANDOM # e.g., wp_i75pa (VERIFIED: real server 2025-11-20)
# Module Classification System
classes:
A: Panel-agnostic (7 modules) - No changes needed
B: System detection only (6 modules) - Use SYS_LOG_DIR
C: User/domain management (6 modules) - Complex refactoring
D: Panel-specific features (2 modules) - Conditional execution
Acronis: Backup suite (13 modules) - No changes needed
# Class C Refactoring Progress (6/6 complete - 100%!)
class_c_complete:
- website-error-analyzer.sh (commit d657c8a) - Multi-panel PHP + Apache logs
- 500-error-tracker.sh (commit 93d4cf9) - Multi-panel log discovery
- wordpress-cron-manager.sh (commit 90ee755) - MOST COMPLEX - Full WordPress discovery
- wordpress-menu.sh (already compliant) - Menu only, no hardcoded paths
- malware-scanner.sh (previous commit) - Multi-panel docroot + log discovery
- optimize-ct-limit.sh (previous commit) - Removed hardcoded fallback
# MANDATORY ABSTRACTION LIBRARIES
required_libraries:
system-detect.sh:
exports: SYS_CONTROL_PANEL, SYS_LOG_DIR, SYS_CONTROL_PANEL_VERSION
values: cpanel|interworx|plesk|standalone
usage: source at top of script, use in case statements
user-manager.sh:
get_user_info: Returns USER_EXISTS, PRIMARY_DOMAIN, ALL_DOMAINS, HOME_DIR
get_user_domains: Returns newline-separated domain list
get_user_databases: Returns database list for user
usage: NEVER grep /var/cpanel/users directly

# COMMON MISTAKES TO AVOID
mistakes:
hardcoded_paths: NEVER use /var/log/apache2/domlogs or /home/user/public_html
cpanel_only_apis: NEVER use whmapi1/uapi without panel check
missing_source: Class B/C modules MUST source system-detect.sh AND user-manager.sh
fallback_paths: NO fallbacks - fail explicitly with clear message
userdata_grep: NEVER grep /var/cpanel/userdata or /var/cpanel/users
# Refactoring Commits
commits:
- Phase 1: user-manager.sh InterWorx support (819865b)
- Phase 2: bot-analyzer.sh + firewall detection (b86aa14)

- VERIFIED Access logs SSL: /home/USERNAME/var/DOMAIN/logs/transfer-ssl.log (HTTPS)
- VERIFIED Error logs: /home/USERNAME/var/DOMAIN/logs/error.log (HTTP)
- VERIFIED Error logs SSL: /home/USERNAME/var/DOMAIN/logs/error-ssl.log (HTTPS)
- Source: https://appendix.interworx.com/current/nodeworx/general/other/log-file-locations.html
domain_to_user:
- Method: grep vhost_*.conf for ServerName + SuexecUserGroup
- Config: /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost_DOMAIN.conf
- Command: grep -l "ServerName domain" /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost_*.conf | xargs grep SuexecUserGroup
user_to_domains:
- Option 1: Parse vhost configs for user's SuexecUserGroup
- Option 2: Filesystem ls /home/USERNAME/*/html
- Option 3: Check for InterWorx CLI tools
database_prefix:
- VERIFIED: Uses username_ prefix (same as cPanel!)
- Source: https://appendix.interworx.com/current/siteworx/mysql/database-guide.html
- Example: username "testuser" → testuser_wp123, testuser_db456
- InterWorx automatically prefixes with SiteWorx account unix username
cron_management:
- Assumed: Standard Linux crontab -u username
- Verify: May have custom InterWorx cron system
php_config:
- How is PHP version selected per domain?
- Where are PHP-FPM pools?
- Check vhost configs or separate files
critical_plesk_verification:
filesystem:
- Domain root: /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/
- Docroot: /var/www/vhosts/DOMAIN/httpdocs/
- Access logs: /var/www/vhosts/system/DOMAIN/logs/access_log
- SSL logs: /var/www/vhosts/system/DOMAIN/logs/access_ssl_log
- Error logs: /var/www/vhosts/system/DOMAIN/logs/error_log
domain_to_user:
- Method: plesk bin subscription --info DOMAIN
- Look for: Owner: username OR Login: username
- VERIFY exact output format!
user_to_domains:
- Test: plesk bin subscription --list -owner username
- OR: plesk bin client --info username
- Find correct command syntax
database_prefix:
- CRITICAL: Assumed NO PREFIX
- Databases: bare names (wp_db, myapp_db)
- MUST VERIFY on real server!
cron_management:
- Check: Standard crontab vs plesk bin cron
- System user: What user runs PHP processes?
- CRITICAL for wordpress-cron-manager.sh!
php_config:
- PHP versions: /opt/plesk/php/
- How is version selected per domain?
- PHP-FPM pools location?
testing_priority_order:
simple_first:
1: tail-apache-access.sh - Just find logs
2: web-traffic-monitor.sh - Monitor logs
3: website-error-analyzer.sh - Logs + domain→user
4: 500-error-tracker.sh - Logs + lookups
5: wordpress-cron-manager.sh - EVERYTHING (most complex test)
commands_to_run_on_test_servers:
interworx:
- ls -la /home/

- ✅ RESOLVED: Database prefix is username_ (verified from docs)
- ✅ RESOLVED: File paths all verified from official docs
- ✅ RESOLVED: Log file is 'transfer.log' NOT 'access_log' (TESTED: real server 2025-11-20)

- ✅ RESOLVED: plesk bin subscription --info DOMAIN works (Owner's contact name field)
- ✅ RESOLVED: System user is file owner (e.g., admin_ftp) NOT www-data (TESTED: obsidian.pleskalations.com)
- ✅ RESOLVED: Cron uses standard crontab -u FILEOWNER (TESTED: 2025-11-20)
- ✅ RESOLVED: Log paths /var/www/vhosts/system/DOMAIN/logs/access_log VERIFIED
