Task 5 migration (CRITICAL Tier 1).
The Frostwall: GRE tunnel DDoS protection.
Foundation for all infrastructure.
3-4 hour deployment.
Date: 2026-02-16
Task 4 migration (Tier 1 Security).
Vaultwarden configuration: SSH key + organization setup for Meg.
Critical for credential management.
Part of 26-task migration.
Date: 2026-02-16

root directory before major work.
Part of full 26-task migration.
Date: 2026-02-16
Migrated by: The Chronicler
Complete pre-deployment checklist covering:
- Pterodactyl API access and key generation
- Ghost VPS access and requirements
- DNS configuration steps
- Whitelist enforcement method determination
- Authentication setup
- Server list verification (11 Minecraft servers)
- Network and firewall requirements
- SSL certificate preparation
Follows FFG-STD-002 standard for task documentation.
This ensures all prerequisites are gathered before starting
deployment, preventing mid-deployment blockers.
Phase 4 of complete restructure.
Date: February 16, 2026
Implemented by: The Chronicler
Migrating whitelist-manager-deployment-plan.md:
- FROM: docs/tools/whitelist-manager-deployment-plan.md
- TO: docs/tasks/whitelist-manager/deployment-plan.md
Following FFG-STD-002 naming convention:
- Task-specific docs live in docs/tasks/[task-name]/
- Renamed to standard name: deployment-plan.md
Content unchanged - this is a pure migration.
Next step: Delete old location (docs/tools/)
Phase 3 of complete restructure.
Date: February 16, 2026
Implemented by: The Chronicler
First task directory following FFG-STD-002 (Task Documentation Standard):
- Complete task overview and status
- Quick links to all documentation
- Server list (11 Minecraft servers)
- Tech stack and deliverables
- Success metrics and dependencies
- Future enhancements roadmap
This README serves as:
1. Entry point for the whitelist-manager task
2. Template for all future task READMEs
3. Single source of truth for task details
Next: Migrate deployment-plan.md from docs/tools/
Phase 2 of complete restructure.
Date: February 16, 2026
Implemented by: The Chronicler
Implementing task documentation standard (FFG-STD-002):
- Create docs/tasks/ directory for all task-specific documentation
- Create docs/tasks/whitelist-manager/ as first task following standard
- Foundation for migrating 1400-line tasks.md into scalable structure
Per fresh Claude review: "Task documentation system doesn't exist - standard created today prescribes docs/tasks/ structure, but directory doesn't exist"
This commit creates the directory structure. Next commits will:
1. Migrate whitelist-manager from docs/tools/
2. Create README.md following standard template
3. Refactor tasks.md entries
Phase 1 of complete restructure.
Date: February 16, 2026
