Rebuilt backend/info/index.html v4.0. Fixed: 2 broken ed/ links removed, Logs/Progress/Build Log corrected, added Jobs/Logs viewer/API Index (all NEW), Security added, all 11 systems listed (not just Core Four), Restructure project linked directly. Verified: all 19 links return 200. Backed up.
Created backend/jobs/ with .htaccess fence. Deployed: index.html (job runner UI), jobs-api.php (router), trash-lifecycle.php, tmp-wipe.php, snapshot.php, backup-rotate.php. jobs-api.php whitelisted in backend/.htaccess. server-map.php updated. Verified: all 3 dry runs passed -- tmp-wipe found 37 files, trash-lifecycle found 12 to archive, snapshot named correctly with PDT timestamp. P3 fully complete.
P2 Piece 1: Created backend/api/ with index.html (20,452b) — 28 APIs documented across 3 sections (Platform, System DBs, App APIs). Each entry has path, auth type, methods, actions, notes. .htaccess fence added. server-map.php updated. P2 Piece 2: STANDARDS-INDEX.md rebuilt with new directories (logs, config, api, security), new standards (backup, work-log, hub-page), templates section, platform directories section, quick lookup updated. P2 fully complete.
Created backend/config/ with .htaccess fence. Deployed platform.php (4,857b) — defines CAI_TOKEN, CAI_ROOT, CAI_BACKEND, CAI_SYSTEMS, DB paths (records/transfers/backup), CAI_TZ, cai_now()/cai_time()/pt_now() helpers, system registry (11 systems), API endpoint constants. Verified: all constants load, cai_now() returns correct PDT, system names correct, records.db found. server-map.php updated with backend/config entry. P1 fully complete — both backend/logs/ and backend/config/ live and verified.
Created backend/logs/ with .htaccess fence. Deployed index.html (13,813b) — log viewer aggregating 22 platform error_logs, filtered by backend/systems/errors, expandable with clear action. Deployed log-api.php (3,750b) — read_all/read/clear actions. Whitelisted log-api.php in backend/.htaccess. Added backend/logs to server-map.php $links. Verified: API returns 22 logs, server-map confirmed, htaccess confirmed.
Created backend/standards/templates/ directory. Deployed template-base.html (9,196b) — complete working page with correct top bar, CSS tokens, section structure, ai-chat slot, bottom tabs, toast, expand rows, cmd-popup. README.md (1,070b) with usage rules. Verified: both files confirmed on disk.
Added Methodical Work Log Standard to STANDARDS-S.md. Rule: any multi-step methodical work gets a log — projects use log.html, sessions use session-log.md. Log before moving to next step. Failure stops work. Verified: save.php returned ok, v2.8 timestamp confirmed.
platform_snapshot_2026-07-10.zip (9,499KB) moved from backend/369/ to backups/snapshots/CAI_SNAPSHOT_07_10_26_legacy.zip. Verified: rename confirmed by PHP, file exists at destination.
backend/ed/ (BE Education) contained: command reference pages, CAI glossary DB (ref.db), server-help, grocery price tracker, examples. All 28 items moved to backend/trash/.
⚑ FLAG FOR P4 — salvage from trash before deletion:
- reference/commands/ (10 pages) → backend/info/reference/
- reference/ref.db (CAI glossary) → backend/info/reference/
- server-help/index.html → backend/info/
- grocery/Grocery_PriceTracker.html → frontend (Kitchen [80])
Audited backend/ed/ — title "BE Education". Contains command reference (CAI), glossary DB, server help, grocery price tracker, PHP/curl examples. Decision: backend platform content moves to backend/info/reference/, user-facing content to frontend. Directory does not belong in backend/.
359 accumulated session bootstrap files moved to backend/trash/. Verified: scandir of backend/tmp/ shows only error_log and trash/ subdir remaining. Clean.
Full recursive inventory of backend/ captured. Key findings: tmp/ had 359 stale bootstrap files, ed/ misplaced, 9.7MB snapshot in 369/, backend/migration/ duplicates projects/migration/, sandbox/ and sys-com/ have empty/stub dirs. Pre-P1 cleanup items identified before starting Phase 1.
Project initiated after backend structure comparison to industry platforms (cPanel, Strapi, Laravel Forge, Directus). Gaps identified: no central logs/, config/, api/, or jobs/ directories. Four phases planned. Project registered in backend/projects/index.html and MASTER_LIST.md.
- P1 — Foundation: backend/logs/ + backend/config/
- P2 — API Consolidation: backend/api/ index
- P3 — Automation: backend/jobs/
- P4 — Cleanup + Standards Lock
