Claude 2ff4233b2a docs: update audit with live Ghost homepage and Paymenter status 
Both Ghost CMS subscription page and Paymenter billing are fully
configured and live in production. Updated audit to reflect:

GHOST CMS (firefrostgaming.com):
- Live subscription page with Fire/Frost dual-path branding
- 11 subscription tiers displayed
- Production-ready design

PAYMENTER (billing.firefrostgaming.com):
- 11 subscription tiers fully configured
- The Awakened $1, Elemental $5, Knight $10, Master $15, Legend $20, Sovereign $499
- Fire/Frost path variants for each tier
- Order Now buttons functional

These were completed but not documented in the infrastructure audit.

🎯 AUTHENTICATION & DEPENDENCY FLOWS

OAuth2 Flows

Discord Bot Admin Panel:

  • User → discord-bot.firefrostgaming.com → Discord OAuth2 → Whitelist check → Session
  • Dependencies: Discord API availability, Session storage (Express sessions)

API Token Flows

Pterodactyl Panel ↔ Wings:

  • Panel stores Wings API tokens
  • Wings validates tokens on each request
  • Critical: Token compromise = full server control

Gitea API:

  • Claude sessions use: e0e330cba1749b01ab505093a160e4423ebbbe36
  • Operations manual automation
  • Critical: Full admin access token

n8n Workflows:

  • Various API tokens stored in n8n credentials
  • Discord webhooks, GitHub, etc.

SMTP Flows (Email)

Ghost VPS (Postfix):

  • Status: ⚠️ BLOCKED - Inbound port 25 blocked at provider level
  • Workaround Needed: Provider support ticket
  • Current: Internal mail only

Billing VPS (Mailcow):

  • Status: ✅ OPERATIONAL
  • SMTP out: 587 (submission), 465 (SMTPS), 25 (relay)
  • IMAP: 143, 993 (SSL)
  • POP3: 110, 995 (SSL)
  • DKIM/SPF/DMARC: Configured for firefrostgaming.com

TX1 (Plane):

  • Status: ✅ OPERATIONAL
  • Internal SMTP for Plane notifications (ports 10025, 10465, 10587)

⚠️ SINGLE POINTS OF FAILURE

Critical Single Points

  1. Pterodactyl Panel (45.94.168.138)

    • Risk: Panel down = no game server management
    • Mitigation: Wings nodes continue running autonomously
    • Recovery Time: ~30 minutes (restore from backup + DNS)

  2. Mailcow (Billing VPS)

    • Risk: Email down = no subscription confirmations, no support tickets
    • Mitigation: Cloudflare Email Routing as backup?
    • Recovery Time: ~2 hours (Mailcow stack restoration)

  3. Gitea (Command Center)

    • Risk: Git down = no deployments, no operations manual access
    • Mitigation: Local clones exist on developer machines
    • Recovery Time: ~1 hour (service restart or VM restore)

  4. Ghost CMS (Ghost VPS)

    • Risk: Main website down = no public presence
    • Mitigation: Cloudflare caching provides limited read access
    • Recovery Time: ~1 hour (Ghost restart or data restore)

  5. Command Center Server (63.143.34.217)

    • Risk: Multiple critical services (Gitea, Uptime Kuma, Discord Bot, Vaultwarden)
    • Impact: Most critical - affects development, monitoring, and Discord automation
    • Mitigation: Distributed services across multiple VPS in future
    • Recovery Time: 2-4 hours (depends on failure type)

Non-Critical Single Points

  1. Billing VPS (38.68.14.188)

    • Services: Paymenter, Mailcow, Whitelist Manager
    • Impact: Financial operations halted, but game servers continue
    • Note: High disk usage (70%) increases risk

  2. Ghost VPS (64.50.188.14)

    • Services: Ghost, Wiki.js (3x), Nextcloud
    • Impact: Documentation inaccessible, but operations continue
    • Note: Can be restored from backups

🔥 PORT CONFLICT PREVENTION

Port Allocation Strategy

Reserved Ranges:

  • 25565-25580: Minecraft game servers (TCP/UDP)
  • 5520-5521: Hytale (TCP/UDP)
  • 30000-30010: Reserved for FoundryVTT and future VTT instances
  • 3000-3200: Internal web services (Gitea, Uptime Kuma, Wiki.js, etc.)
  • 8000-9000: Docker services and Wings
  • 10000-11000: Plane/n8n/Dify internal services

Conflict Lessons Learned

The Arbiter Bot Port Hunt (March 27, 2026):

  1. Attempted port 3000 → CONFLICT (Gitea on TX1 Dify)
  2. Attempted port 3001 → CONFLICT (Uptime Kuma)
  3. SUCCESS: Port 3500 (unused)

Prevention Going Forward:

  • Always check ss -tlnp | grep LISTEN before deploying
  • Document port assignments in this registry
  • Use high-numbered ports (3500+) for new services on shared servers
  • Consider port range 4000-5000 for future Discord/webhook services

🚨 ISSUES IDENTIFIED

Warning Issues

  1. Billing VPS Disk Usage: 70%

    • Risk: May hit capacity during high email volume
    • Action: Review Mailcow container logs and volumes
    • Timeline: Monitor weekly, expand if hits 80%

  2. NC1 Charlotte Disk Usage: 66%

    • Risk: Game worlds growing, may hit capacity
    • Action: Implement world pruning or disk expansion
    • Timeline: Monitor weekly, expand if hits 75%

  3. Ghost VPS Firewall Not Audited

    • Timeline: Next maintenance window

📈 CAPACITY PLANNING

Short-Term Capacity (Next 3 Months)

Can Accommodate:

  • ✅ 5-10 more game servers on TX1 (plenty of disk + RAM)
  • ✅ 2-4 more game servers on NC1 (disk space permitting)
  • ✅ Additional web services on Command Center
  • ✅ Additional web services on Ghost VPS
  • ⚠️ Limited capacity on Billing VPS (disk constraint)

Cannot Accommodate Without Expansion:

  • ❌ Additional Docker stacks on Billing VPS (disk full)
  • ❌ Large-world game servers on NC1 (disk space)

Long-Term Recommendations

  1. Expand Billing VPS Disk

    • Current: 19GB
    • Recommended: 40-50GB
    • Reason: Mailcow + Paymenter + future growth

  2. Expand NC1 Disk

    • Current: 98GB
    • Recommended: 200GB+
    • Reason: Game world growth over time

  3. Consider Backup Server

    • Add dedicated backup VPS
    • Offload backups from game server disks
    • Enable disaster recovery

  4. Load Balancer for Web Services

    • Multiple Ghost CMS instances
    • Distribute SSL termination
    • Improve resilience
