+# Ginxsom Admin System - Comprehensive Specification
+
+## Overview
+
+The Ginxsom admin system provides both programmatic (API-based) and interactive (web-based) administration capabilities for the Ginxsom Blossom server. The system is designed around Nostr-based authentication and supports multiple administration workflows including first-run setup, ongoing configuration management, and operational monitoring.
+
+## Architecture Components
+
+### 1. Configuration System
+- **File-based configuration**: Signed Nostr events stored as JSON files following XDG Base Directory specification
+- **Database configuration**: Key-value pairs stored in SQLite for runtime configuration
+- **Interactive setup**: Command-line wizard for initial server configuration
+- **Manual setup**: Scripts for generating signed configuration events
+
+### 2. Authentication & Authorization
+- **Nostr-based auth**: All admin operations require valid Nostr event signatures
+- **Admin pubkey verification**: Only configured admin public keys can perform admin operations
+- **Event validation**: Full cryptographic verification of Nostr events including structure, signature, and expiration
+- **Method-specific authorization**: Different event types for different operations (upload, admin, delete, etc.)
+
+### 3. API System
+- **RESTful endpoints**: `/api/*` routes for programmatic administration
+- **Command-line testing**: Complete test suite using `nak` and `curl`
+- **JSON responses**: Structured data for all admin operations
+- **CORS support**: Cross-origin requests for web admin interface
+
+### 4. Web Interface (Future)
+- **Single-page application**: Self-contained HTML file with inline CSS/JS
+- **Real-time monitoring**: Statistics and system health dashboards
+- **Configuration management**: GUI for server settings
+- **File management**: Browse and manage uploaded blobs
+
+## Configuration System Architecture
+
+### File-based Configuration (Priority 1)
+
+**Location**: Follows XDG Base Directory Specification
+- `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ginxsom/ginxsom_config_event.json`
+- Falls back to `$HOME/.config/ginxsom/ginxsom_config_event.json`
+
+**Format**: Signed Nostr event containing server configuration
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 33333,
+  "created_at": 1704067200,
+  "tags": [
+    ["server_privkey", "server_private_key_hex"],
+    ["cdn_origin", "https://cdn.example.com"],
+    ["max_file_size", "104857600"],
+    ["nip94_enabled", "true"]
+  ],
+  "content": "Ginxsom server configuration",
+  "pubkey": "admin_public_key_hex",
+  "id": "event_id_hash",
+  "sig": "event_signature"
+}
+```
+
+**Loading Process**:
+1. Check for file-based config at XDG location
+2. Validate Nostr event structure and signature
+3. Extract configuration from event tags
+4. Apply settings to server (database storage)
+5. Fall back to database-only config if file missing/invalid
+
+### Database Configuration (Priority 2)
+
+**Table**: `server_config`
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE server_config (
+    key TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+    value TEXT NOT NULL,
+    description TEXT,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+);
+```
+
+**Key Configuration Items**:
+- `admin_pubkey`: Authorized admin public key
+- `admin_enabled`: Enable/disable admin interface
+- `cdn_origin`: Base URL for blob access
+- `max_file_size`: Maximum upload size in bytes
+- `nip94_enabled`: Enable NIP-94 metadata emission
+- `auth_rules_enabled`: Enable authentication rules system
+
+### Setup Workflows
+
+#### Interactive Setup (Command Line)
+```bash
+# First-run detection
+if [[ ! -f "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ginxsom/ginxsom_config_event.json" ]]; then
+    echo "=== Ginxsom First-Time Setup Required ==="
+    echo "1. Run interactive setup wizard"
+    echo "2. Exit and create config manually"
+    read -p "Choice (1/2): " choice
+    
+    if [[ "$choice" == "1" ]]; then
+        ./scripts/setup.sh
+    else
+        echo "Manual setup: Run ./scripts/generate_config.sh"
+        exit 1
+    fi
+fi
+```
+
+#### Manual Setup (Script-based)
+```bash
+# Generate configuration event
+./scripts/generate_config.sh --admin-key <admin_pubkey> \
+    --server-key <server_privkey> \
+    --cdn-origin "https://cdn.example.com" \
+    --output "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ginxsom/ginxsom_config_event.json"
+```
+
+### C Implementation Functions
+
+#### Configuration Loading
+```c
+// Get XDG-compliant config file path
+int get_config_file_path(char* path, size_t path_size);
+
+// Load and validate config event from file
+int load_server_config(const char* config_path);
+
+// Extract config from validated event and apply to server
+int apply_config_from_event(cJSON* event);
+
+// Interactive setup runner for first-run
+int run_interactive_setup(const char* config_path);
+```
+
+#### Security Features
+- Server private key stored only in memory (never in database)
+- Config file must be signed Nostr event
+- Full cryptographic validation of config events
+- Admin pubkey verification for all operations
+
+## Admin API Specification
+
+### Authentication Model
+
+All admin API endpoints (except `/api/health`) require Nostr authentication:
+
+**Authorization Header Format**:
+```
+Authorization: Nostr <base64-encoded-event>

+
+**Required Event Structure**:
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 24242,
+  "created_at": 1704067200,
+  "tags": [
+    ["t", "GET"],
+    ["expiration", "1704070800"]
+  ],
+  "content": "admin_request",
+  "pubkey": "admin_public_key",
+  "id": "event_id",
+  "sig": "event_signature"
+}
+```
+

+5. **Audit logging** - Admin action tracking
+
+## Setup Instructions
+
+### 1. Enable Admin Interface
+```bash
+# Configure admin pubkey and enable interface
+sqlite3 db/ginxsom.db << EOF
+INSERT OR REPLACE INTO server_config (key, value, description) VALUES
+    ('admin_pubkey', 'your_admin_public_key_here', 'Authorized admin public key'),
+    ('admin_enabled', 'true', 'Enable admin interface');
+EOF
+```
+
+### 2. Test API Access
+```bash
+# Generate admin authentication event
+ADMIN_PRIVKEY="your_admin_private_key"
+EVENT=$(nak event -k 24242 -c "admin_request" \
+    --tag t="GET" \
+    --tag expiration="$(date -d '+1 hour' +%s)" \
+    --sec "$ADMIN_PRIVKEY")
+
+# Test admin API
+AUTH_HEADER="Nostr $(echo "$EVENT" | base64 -w 0)"
+curl -H "Authorization: $AUTH_HEADER" http://localhost:9001/api/stats
+```
+
+### 3. Configure File-based Setup (Future)
+```bash
+# Create XDG config directory
+mkdir -p "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ginxsom"
+
+# Generate signed config event
+./scripts/generate_config.sh \
+    --admin-key "your_admin_pubkey" \
+    --server-key "generated_server_privkey" \
+    --output "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ginxsom/ginxsom_config_event.json"
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Authentication Security
+- **Event expiration**: All admin events must include expiration timestamps
+- **Signature validation**: Full secp256k1 cryptographic verification
+- **Replay protection**: Event IDs tracked to prevent reuse
+- **Admin key rotation**: Support for updating admin pubkeys
+
+### Configuration Security
+- **File permissions**: Config files should be readable only by server user
+- **Private key handling**: Server private keys never stored in database
+- **Config validation**: All configuration changes validated before application
+- **Backup verification**: Config events cryptographically verifiable
+
+### Operational Security
+- **Access logging**: All admin operations logged with timestamps
+- **Rate limiting**: API endpoints protected against abuse
+- **Input validation**: All user input sanitized and validated
+- **Database security**: Prepared statements prevent SQL injection
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### 1. Web Admin Interface
+- Self-contained HTML file with inline CSS/JavaScript
+- Real-time monitoring dashboards
+- Visual configuration management
+- File upload/management interface
+
+### 2. Advanced Monitoring
+- Performance metrics collection
+- Alert system for critical events
+- Historical data trending
+- Resource usage tracking
+
+### 3. Multi-admin Support
+- Multiple authorized admin pubkeys
+- Role-based permissions (read-only vs full admin)
+- Admin action audit trails
+- Delegation capabilities
+
+### 4. Integration Features
+- Nostr relay integration for admin events
+- Webhook notifications for admin actions
+- External authentication providers
+- API key management for programmatic access
+
+This specification represents the current understanding and planned development of the Ginxsom admin system, focusing on security, usability, and maintainability.
