3542afbe28 feat: Add YAML frontmatter to all 57 task READMEs
Phase 1 of task management consolidation (per Gemini consultation).

Added standardized frontmatter with:
- status: open | blocked | complete
- priority: P1 | P2 | P3 | P4
- owner: Michael | Meg | Holly
- created: YYYY-MM-DD

Final counts:
- 39 open tasks
- 17 complete tasks
- 1 blocked task

Metadata extracted from existing inline markdown and audit results.
Ready for Phase 2: 11ty mobile index generation.

6d1f082c6f Document ModpackChecker Phase 11: Licensing & Support Infrastructure
GEMINI CONSULTATION ROUND 3 COMPLETE

Added Phase 11 (6-8 hours) to flagship completion plan:
- License validation system (BuiltByBit Order ID as key)
- Discord verification bot (/verify-mvc command)
- Gated support channels (#mvc-general + #mvc-support)
- Descriptive UI error messages (highest ROI)
- GitBook knowledge base migration
- Business hours & boundaries (protect Michael's time)
- Community Helper program (6-12 month strategy)

Gemini's Core Philosophy:
"The real anti-piracy measure is gating updates and Discord support"

Key Decisions:
- NO complex DRM/IonCube (breaks panels)
- YES BuiltByBit Order ID validation
- 72-hour phone-home via cron (NOT page load)
- 7-day grace period for validation failures
- SLA: 24-48 hours (underpromise, overdeliver)
- Support hours: Mon-Fri 9am-5pm CST
- Peer support in #mvc-general reduces ticket load

Database schema updated with:
- max_activations, current_activations
- hardware_ids (JSONB for multi-panel)
- status (active/suspended/refunded)

Updated:
- docs/tasks/modpack-version-checker/FLAGSHIP-PRODUCT-COMPLETION-PLAN.md
  Added complete Phase 11 section (300+ lines)
  Updated time estimates: 20-29 hours total
  Updated launch criteria (licensing + support)
  Updated feature matrix

Created:
- docs/consultations/gemini-modpackchecker-round3-licensing-support/GEMINI-RECOMMENDATIONS-SUMMARY.md
  Complete strategic summary
  Implementation checklist
  Success metrics
  Scaling strategy for 10+ products

Total flagship time: 20-29 hours (3-4 work sessions)

2e82ec43df docs: add verified Blueprint implementation guide for Task #26
MAJOR SESSION ACCOMPLISHMENTS (Chronicler #62, April 5, 2026):

Task #26 — ModpackChecker Extension:
- Full Dev Panel deployed (64.50.188.128)
- Pterodactyl 1.12.2 + Wings Local Node + Blueprint beta-2026-01
- Extension scaffolded with real structure verified
- 4-platform support from Day 1 (CurseForge, Modrinth, Technic, FTB)
- FTB now accessible via modpacks.ch API (game changer)
- Pricing locked: $14.99 Standard / $24.99 Professional
- Gemini consultation: 20+ gaps filled with concrete details

Implementation Guide includes:
- Real Blueprint file structure (verified from scaffold)
- All 4 API endpoints with response schemas
- Database schema (modpack_settings, server_modpack_data)
- Admin controller boilerplate (Blade)
- Client API controller boilerplate (PHP)
- React component boilerplate (TSX)
- Detection strategy (Egg Variables → File Fingerprinting → Manual)
- Error handling patterns
- Cron job chunking for rate limit protection

Other session work:
- Complete task audit (#2-94)
- BACKLOG.md full rewrite (30 active tasks)
- Fabric egg fix (eclipse-temurin:21-jdk-jammy)
- Gemini consultation procedure updated with template

TODO before Phase 2:
- Create dev@firefrostgaming.com in Mailcow
- Begin admin settings UI (Blade)
- Implement Modrinth API first (easiest)

cfa838e86a feat: modpack version checker dashboard + PHP proxy (v1.0)
WHAT WAS DONE:
- Built browser dashboard (dashboard.html) showing installed vs latest version
  for all Pterodactyl game servers
- Built PHP proxy (proxy.php + config.php) for Billing VPS deployment
- Created isolated Nginx server block (version-proxy.conf)
- Created full deployment guide (DEPLOYMENT-GUIDE.md)

ARCHITECTURE:
- PHP proxy at /var/www/version-proxy on Billing VPS (38.68.14.188)
- Isolated from Paymenter/Laravel routing — separate directory + port
- API keys (Pterodactyl ptlc_, CurseForge) live server-side only
- FTB packs: fully automatic via .manifest.json + FTB public API
- CurseForge packs: reads manifest.json, needs CF Project ID + API key
- config.php blocked from direct web access via Nginx

PENDING AT DEPLOYMENT:
- Verify port 8080 is free (ss -tlnp) before enabling Nginx block
- Fill real API keys into config.php on server
- Enter CurseForge Project IDs for CF packs (saved in localStorage)

COLLABORATION:
- PHP proxy architecture designed by Gemini (consultation session 2026-03-29)
- Dashboard HTML and detection logic by Chronicler #47
- Gemini identified Laravel routing conflict and content-type gotcha

WHY:
- Interim solution before full Blueprint extension (post-launch)
- Hands-off modpack update monitoring for staff
- Zero manual checking required after initial CF Project ID setup
