Notable changes to the Evomedia.net Token Savers.

Unreleased
----------
Changed
- zversion bump is once per RELEASE, not once per PR - the usage text and
  the bump help line both said "one per PR, one per defect fix". The build
  number names something that shipped, so a release carrying five PRs moves
  it by one; PRs that never shipped on their own were never separate builds.
  Help text only here, but it is the wording people follow: it stamped a
  single evo.www release as two builds. The historical entry below, which
  records what the rule was when zversion shipped, is deliberately left as
  written.

Added
- Read a live build from inside the docker network, not through the public
  proxy — zdeploy, zec2 and zec2online now prefer
  docker exec <viaProxy> curl http://<upstream>/api/build-version when a
  project sets verify.viaProxy and verify.upstream.
  Two problems it closes. A build stamp is something many sites
  deliberately do not serve publicly, and a checker that reads it over the
  public URL stops working the moment that endpoint is blocked —
  reporting "unknown", which is indistinguishable from "could not reach
  it". And the proxy answers from whichever vhost matches the Host header,
  so a container with no public route was getting another site's version
  back and failing deploys that had worked.
  Reading it from a container on the shared network also exercises the
  real HTTP path, so it proves the app is serving rather than that its
  database knows a version. Purely additive: projects without those two
  keys behave exactly as before.


Fixed
- scp no longer receives an ssh-only flag — the stdin-hang fix added
  -n to Get-Ec2SshOpts, and the deploy path splats that same array into
  scp as well as ssh. OpenSSH's scp has no -n: it exits 1 with
  unknown option -- n and prints its usage block, so every upload failed.
  Get-Ec2ScpOpts now supplies the shared connection options with -n
  filtered out, derived from Get-Ec2SshOpts rather than duplicated so the
  timeouts cannot drift apart between the two transports. All four scp
  call sites use it, including the recursive directory upload.
  The upload failure message also asserted "Likely server disk space"
  without checking; it now points at scp's own output, where the real
  diagnosis already was.


Fixed
-----
- Deploys can no longer hang forever on an ssh prompt — every
  deploy-path ssh/scp now carries BatchMode=yes plus connect and
  keepalive timeouts (Get-Ec2SshOpts in ZHelpers.ps1). Without
  BatchMode, ssh prompts for a passphrase or password and waits
  indefinitely; because the deploy pipes stderr through the pipeline, the
  prompt never reaches the screen and the run just stops under whatever
  step label printed last, with no explanation. Now it fails immediately —
  there is no prompt on this path worth answering. ServerAlive* bounds a
  session that dies mid-command (dropped VPN, sleeping laptop, rebooting
  host) to about a minute instead of hanging.
- Vendored archives survive the archive filter — files under a
  vendor/ directory are exempt from the "no archives in the zip" rule.
  A project that vendors a dependency as vendor/*.tgz needs it in the
  deploy zip; dropping it makes a Dockerfile's COPY vendor ./vendor
  fail at image build, a confusing way to learn the filter ate a build
  input.
- unzip install is idempotent — the remote step ran
  apt-get update && apt-get install -y unzip on every deploy; it now
  checks command -v unzip first and skips the apt round-trip when the
  binary is already there.
- zdeploy edge kind now ships asset subdirectories (#42) — the edge
  deploy uploaded top-level files only, so a project self-hosting assets
  in folders (fonts/, vendor/) lost them on every deploy: docker
  created empty root-owned mount points and nginx served 404s from them,
  which shows up as fonts silently falling back and vendored JS never
  loading. Every subdirectory except nginx-logs/ and .git/ now ships
  recursively, and the ensure edge dir chown is recursive so scp into
  docker-created root-owned dirs cannot fail.
- zdeploy no longer deletes operator-managed files on deploy (#2) —
  the project-directory replacement preserved only ./.env, silently
  destroying every other server-side file (.env.db, staged signing
  keys, certs) on every deploy. All .env* files at the project root are
  now preserved by default, plus anything listed in the new
  deploy.preserve array (files or directories); the vite kind, which
  previously preserved nothing, gets the same protection. Found the hard
  way: a first production deploy of an auth service wiped its staged DB
  credentials and RSA signing keys.

Added
-----
- Versioned releases: zversion, zrelease, releases/ — the toolkit now
  carries one version in a 5-segment scheme,
  v{major}.{rc}.{beta}.{alpha}.{build}. zversion bump (one per PR / defect
  fix) and zversion bump-stage release|rc|beta|alpha (zeroes every lower
  segment) rewrite build-version.json, stamp # Version: into every script
  header — so a lone copied script still says which release it came from — and
  regenerate CHECKSUMS.txt in the same step. zrelease packages the current
  version as releases/zscripts-<version>.zip with a .sha256 beside it: one
  hash verifies the download, the bundled CHECKSUMS.txt verifies the
  extracted contents, so nobody needs to clone the repo to get a verifiable
  copy. Released zips are immutable — zrelease refuses to overwrite one.
- zchecksums + CHECKSUMS.txt — a SHA-256 manifest covering every .ps1
  and .cmd, so a download can be verified before anything is run. zchecksums
  checks them; zchecksums -Update regenerates after an intentional edit. The
  manifest is sha256sum format, so sha256sum -c CHECKSUMS.txt works on
  Linux/macOS/WSL too, and the hashes match on every platform because
  .gitattributes pins these files to CRLF everywhere. Flags changed files,
  missing files, and scripts present on disk but absent from the manifest.
  It's an integrity check, not a signature — the manifest sits in the same repo
  as the code, so it catches corruption and accidental drift, not a compromised
  repo. A Pester test fails if the manifest ever goes stale.
- Test suite (Pester) — the toolkit now has automated coverage of its own
  pure logic: Get-ArchiveExcludes (including the deploy-vs-backup rule that
  keeps .env/uploads out of deploys but in backups), config and project
  lookups, remote.composeDir fallback, EC2 target composition, and build-label
  formatting. Run with Invoke-Pester .\tests (Pester 5+). Verified by mutation
  testing — reintroducing each historical bug turns the suite red.
- ZCONFIG environment variable — overrides the path to zconfig.json, so
  a run can target an alternate config. Also gives the test suite a seam for
  injecting a fixture.
- zec2_rotatekeys — safely rotate/reset server-side secrets — a new
  tool for when a secret leaks or a deploy overwrites a production .env
  with dev values. -Rotate KEY regenerates a key on the server
  (openssl rand -hex 32) so the new value never leaves the box; -Set KEY
  takes an operator-known value (e.g. DATABASE_URL, ADMIN_EMAIL) from a
  masked prompt and streams it over SSH stdin — never a command argument,
  never echoed. Backs the server .env up to a timestamped .bak first,
  updates the key atomically (matches or appends), auto-detects
  backend/.env from deploy.preserve, and with -Restart recreates
  the container (up -d --force-recreate, so the new values actually load —
  a plain restart keeps the old environment). -WhatIf previews the plan
  without touching anything.
- zkill all — zkill now accepts all, stopping the dev server of
  every project that has a ports.dev (edge/docker stacks with no local dev
  server are skipped). Brings it in line with zdeploy all / zbackup all;
  the one-shot "stop everything I've got running locally".
- zdeploy server-side health verification (verify block) — projects
  not published through the edge proxy can declare
  "verify": { "port": ..., "path": "/health", "expect": "..." } and the
  deploy is checked from the server itself (curl localhost:<port><path>
  over SSH) instead of hitting the public IP. Fixes a false PASS where the
  proxy's default vhost answered for apps that never started; projects
  with neither domain nor verify are now reported as NOT verified.
- zdeploy optional deploy.gitPull — git pull --ff-only in the
  project root before zipping. zdeploy zips the working tree and doesn't
  otherwise pull, so a checkout left behind origin after a merged PR would
  deploy stale code while still bumping the build number — success that
  changes nothing. A failed pull aborts the deploy instead.
- Per-project start config block — zstart honors optional pre-start
  steps from zconfig.json: "gitPull": true runs git pull --ff-only in
  the project root before starting (never boot a stale checkout), and
  "env": { ... } sets environment variables for the dev-server process.
  Example added to zconfig.example.json.
- Switch-style argument tolerance — a leading dash on a project key is
  ignored everywhere (zdeploy -myapp == zdeploy myapp), for hands that
  grew up on per-project switches.

Changed
-------
- zbackup / zbackup_and_sync require an explicit target — running
  them bare now shows usage instead of quietly backing up every project;
  all does what bare invocation used to (matching zdeploy). The
  scheduled task created by setup_backup_schedule.ps1 passes all —
  re-run it if your task was registered before this change.
- zbackup parses more DATABASE_URL styles — double/single-quoted
  values (Prisma convention), postgres:// and postgresql+driver://
  schemes, and URLs without an explicit port (defaults to 5432) all work;
  previously these skipped the Postgres dump with "Could not parse
  DATABASE_URL".
- zkill / port cleanup kills the whole process tree — listeners on a
  project's port are now terminated children-first. Auto-reloading servers
  (uvicorn/watchfiles, nodemon) spawn workers that inherit the listening
  socket; killing only the parent left orphans serving stale code.
- zbackup finds DATABASE_URL in backend\.env too — projects with a
  frontend/backend split get their Postgres dump bundled without needing a
  root-level .env.

1.0.0
-----

Initial public release: zstart / zkill / zrestart (local dev servers),
zdeploy (zip → upload → compose build → live build-version verification,
with handlers for python / vite / nextjs / edge / docker project kinds),
zec2 / zec2online / zrepair (health checks and recovery), zbackup /
zbackup_ec2 / zsync (local, server-side, and offsite backups), all driven
by a single gitignored zconfig.json.
