Oier Bravo Urtasun 27237bc7c1 feat(mods): replace packwiz with distribution-fed custom mod volume
Drop packwiz entirely. The server now loads a filtered mod subset from a
local ./server-mods volume instead of fetching a packwiz pack at boot.

New flow:
- tooling/classify-mods.py (tomllib only, no network) reads each jar's
  META-INF/neoforge.mods.toml and seeds mods-sides.json with a side
  (client|server|both; default both). Existing entries are preserved.
- mods-sides.json: committed, keyed by jar filename, hand-editable override
  surface. Initial seed: 65 both, 11 client, 0 server (76 jars).
- tooling/sync-server-mods.sh mirrors the both/server jars from
  $DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT into ./server-mods/ (authoritative; prunes strays;
  halts on a missing jar). Replaces render-pack.sh.
- compose: minecraft mounts ./server-mods:/mods:ro with REMOVE_OLD_MODS=TRUE
  (itzg auto-syncs /mods -> /data/mods). Removed PACKWIZ_URL, the pack.
  extra_host (auth. kept for authlib), and depends_on caddy (drasl kept).

Both classify-mods.py and sync-server-mods.sh resolve their source dir as:
CLI arg / MODS_DIST_DIR env / $DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT (in that order).

Removed: tooling/render-pack.sh + add-custom-mod.sh (packwiz tooling),
pack/ (packwiz source), custom/ (76 jars now sourced from the distribution),
the pack. caddy vhost + its mounts/alias, and the packwiz .gitignore block.

Client distribution is UNCHANGED: HeliosLauncher still installs the full
modset from distribution.json. Docs (CLAUDE.md, plan/04/05/14, runtime)
updated; plan/04-packwiz.md stubbed as superseded by plan/04-mods.md.

# Ulicraft Server — Project Context
> Self-hosted modded Minecraft (NeoForge 1.21.1) with self-hosted auth/skins
> (Drasl), a distribution-fed modpack, avatar rendering, a guest landing page, and uptime
> monitoring. Public, internet-present deployment behind the host's nginx + TLS.
**`plan/` is the source of truth for the design.** Start at `plan/00-overview.md`.
This file is a fast orientation + the durable decisions/gotchas; when it disagrees
with `plan/` or the code, those win.
## Goals & Constraints
- **Players**: 410 friends
- **Modpack vibe**: Kitchen-sink (tech + magic + exploration + QoL)
- **Pack approach**: Manually curated (~50100 mods), NOT a forked existing pack
- **Minecraft version**: 1.21.1, **NeoForge** (not classic Forge)
- **Auth/skins**: Drasl (Yggdrasil-compatible), **password login** — no OIDC
- **DNS**: handled OUTSIDE this repo; point `${BASE_DOMAIN}` + subdomains at the host
- **Persistence horizon**: long-term service, not disposable
## Architecture
One unified `docker-compose.yml`. The host's own nginx terminates TLS (Let's
Encrypt) and reverse-proxies every vhost to caddy (published localhost-only) by
Host header. caddy is the internal router; containers reach the stack's own names
via caddy's `mcnet` aliases (`auth.`, `pack.`).
```
Internet ── host nginx (TLS, LE certs, HSTS) ──► caddy (127.0.0.1:8880)
│ routes by Host:
${BASE_DOMAIN} ─► /srv/www landing + /launcher/ downloads
auth.${BASE_DOMAIN} ─► drasl (Yggdrasil API + web UI)
avatar.${BASE_DOMAIN} ─► nmsr (skin/avatar renderer, Drasl-backed)
status.${BASE_DOMAIN} ─► uptime-kuma (status page + monitors)
distribution.${BASE} ─► static site from ANOTHER repo (DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT)
minecraft :25565 (+ 24454/udp Simple Voice Chat)
└ ONLINE_MODE=false, -javaagent authlib-injector → http://auth.${BASE_DOMAIN}/authlib-injector
└ mods from ./server-mods volume (/mods, REMOVE_OLD_MODS) — see plan/04-mods.md
mc-backup ── RCON → minecraft (6h interval, prune 14d, world-only)
```
Bring-up: render configs → sync server mods → build landing → fetch launcher → `docker compose up -d --build`.
See `plan/12-build-order.md` and `plan/14-deploy.md`. Deploy to prod host `cochi`
via the `deploy` skill.
## Key Decisions
- **NeoForge over Forge** — the 1.21.x kitchen-sink ecosystem is overwhelmingly
NeoForge; the Forge team migrated. `itzg/minecraft-server` via `TYPE=NEOFORGE`.
- **Drasl over Ely.by / vanilla offline** — self-hosted Go service, Yggdrasil
drop-in, skins + capes, actively maintained. Run with **password login**
(no OIDC/Keycloak in this stack).
- **Manual curation** (user choice, flagged expensive) — if it gets painful,
fork-and-trim Leaking Kitchen Sink is still on the table (closest vibe match).
- **itzg/minecraft-server** base image — de-facto standard, auto-installs NeoForge.
- **Distribution-fed mod volume (replaced packwiz)** — the modset's source of
truth is the HeliosLauncher distribution repo (`$DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT`).
Clients install the full set via `distribution.json`. The SERVER loads a
filtered subset (`both`/`server`) from a mounted `./server-mods` volume
(`REMOVE_OLD_MODS=TRUE`). See `plan/04-mods.md`.
## Critical Gotchas
### Minecraft 1.21+ secure profile
- Server: `ENFORCE_SECURE_PROFILE=FALSE` (`enforce-secure-profile=false`)
- Drasl: `SignPublicKeys = false`
- Linked. Drasl docs: *"Mixed authentication does not work with
`SignPublicKeys = true` on Minecraft 1.21+."*
### authlib-injector JVM agent
- Syntax: `-javaagent:/extras/authlib-injector.jar=<yggdrasil-api-url>`
- URL after `=` is the **API root** = `<BaseURL>/authlib-injector`. For this
stack: `http://auth.${BASE_DOMAIN}/authlib-injector` (internal, over mcnet).
- **Must match between server and client** (clients use the public
`https://auth.${BASE_DOMAIN}/authlib-injector`), else session validation fails
silently with "Invalid session".
- Releases: https://github.com/yushijinhun/authlib-injector — jar lives in
`runtime/` (mounted at `/extras/authlib-injector.jar`).
### NeoForge version pinning
Mods are picky about exact minor versions. Compose pins `NEOFORGE_VERSION:
"21.1.209"`. **Verify against https://projects.neoforged.net/neoforged/neoforge
before deploying.** Never `"latest"` for a stable server.
### Mod source + server filtering
The full modset lives in the distribution repo (`$DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT/servers/
ulicraft-1.21.1/forgemods/required/*.jar`), managed by Nebula. Clients get
everything via `distribution.json`. The server runs a **filtered subset**:
`tooling/classify-mods.py` reads each jar's `neoforge.mods.toml` with tomllib and
seeds `mods-sides.json` (`client|server|both`, default `both`), then
`tooling/sync-server-mods.sh` copies the `both`/`server` jars into `./server-mods`
(mounted at `/mods`). Hard client-only mods (sodium/iris) classify as `client`
automatically; cosmetic-client mods that declare `BOTH` stay `both` until you
hand-edit `mods-sides.json` to `client`. No Modrinth/packwiz, no network at
classify/sync time. See `plan/04-mods.md`.
### Memory sizing
~50100 mods, 8 players, 1.21.1: `INIT_MEMORY: 4G`, `MAX_MEMORY: 10G`,
`USE_AIKAR_FLAGS: TRUE`.
## Config (.env)
`BASE_DOMAIN`, `RCON_PASSWORD`, `CADDY_HTTP_PORT`/`CADDY_HTTP_BIND`,
`DISTRIBUTION_WEB_ROOT` (source of the modset + caddy `distribution.` mount), the
Let's Encrypt block (`LE_EMAIL`, `LE_SUBDOMAINS`, `OVH_*`). Rendered configs
(drasl, nmsr) come from `*.tmpl` via `tooling/render-config.sh` (substitutes
`${BASE_DOMAIN}` only). Server mods are synced (not rendered) by
`tooling/sync-server-mods.sh`.
## Client Distribution (guests)
Launcher: **FjordLauncherUnlocked** (Prism fork, first-class authlib-injector),
mirrored at apex `/launcher/`. Per guest:
1. Download from `https://${BASE_DOMAIN}``/launcher/`.
2. Add an authlib-injector account, URL
`https://auth.${BASE_DOMAIN}/authlib-injector` (register/login at
`https://auth.${BASE_DOMAIN}`).
3. The launcher installs the modpack from the distribution (`distribution.json`).
(NOTE: packwiz/`pack.` removed — the landing join step still references a
packwiz URL and needs reworking around the launcher/distribution flow.)
4. Connect to `${BASE_DOMAIN}` (`:25565`).

## Communication Preferences (carry-over)
- Concise and direct; diagnose + resolve without demanding repro steps.
- Prefer iterative single-change updates over large rewrites.
- Cautious scripts that halt on ambiguity rather than proceeding silently.
- Avoid over-engineering when a simple answer suffices.
- Spanish or English both fine.
