+# Database Naming Design (c-relay Pattern)
+
+## Overview
+
+Following c-relay's architecture, ginxsom will use pubkey-based database naming to ensure database-key consistency and prevent mismatched configurations.
+
+## Database Naming Convention
+
+Database files are named after the blossom server's public key:
+```
+db/<blossom_pubkey>.db
+```
+
+Example:
+```
+db/52e366edfa4e9cc6a6d4653828e51ccf828a2f5a05227d7a768f33b5a198681a.db
+```
+
+## Startup Scenarios
+
+### Scenario 1: No Arguments (Fresh Start)
+```bash
+./ginxsom-fcgi
+```
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Generate new server keypair
+2. Create database file: `db/<new_pubkey>.db`
+3. Store keys in the new database
+4. Start server
+
+**Result:** New instance with fresh keys and database
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 2: Database File Specified
+```bash
+./ginxsom-fcgi --db-path db/52e366ed...198681a.db
+```
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Open specified database
+2. Load blossom_seckey from database
+3. Verify pubkey matches database filename
+4. Load admin_pubkey if present
+5. Start server
+
+**Validation:**
+- Database MUST exist
+- Database MUST contain blossom_seckey
+- Derived pubkey MUST match filename
+
+**Error Cases:**
+- Database doesn't exist → Error: "Database file not found"
+- Database missing blossom_seckey → Error: "Invalid database: missing server keys"
+- Pubkey mismatch → Error: "Database pubkey mismatch: expected X, got Y"
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 3: Keys Specified (New Instance with Specific Keys)
+```bash
+./ginxsom-fcgi --server-privkey c4e0d2ed...309c48f1 --admin-pubkey 8ff74724...5eedde0e
+```
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Validate provided server private key
+2. Derive server public key
+3. Create database file: `db/<derived_pubkey>.db`
+4. Store both keys in new database
+5. Start server
+
+**Validation:**
+- server-privkey MUST be valid 64-char hex
+- Derived database file MUST NOT already exist (prevents overwriting)
+
+**Error Cases:**
+- Invalid privkey format → Error: "Invalid server private key format"
+- Database already exists → Error: "Database already exists for this pubkey"
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 4: Test Mode
+```bash
+./ginxsom-fcgi --test-keys
+```
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Load keys from `.test_keys` file
+2. Derive server public key from SERVER_PRIVKEY
+3. Create/overwrite database: `db/<test_pubkey>.db`
+4. Store test keys in database
+5. Start server
+
+**Special Handling:**
+- Test mode ALWAYS overwrites existing database (for clean testing)
+- Database name derived from test SERVER_PRIVKEY
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 5: Database + Keys Specified (Validation Mode)
+```bash
+./ginxsom-fcgi --db-path db/52e366ed...198681a.db --server-privkey c4e0d2ed...309c48f1
+```
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Open specified database
+2. Load blossom_seckey from database
+3. Compare with provided --server-privkey
+4. If match: continue normally
+5. If mismatch: ERROR and exit
+
+**Purpose:** Validation/verification that correct keys are being used
+
+**Error Cases:**
+- Key mismatch → Error: "Server private key doesn't match database"
+
+---
+
+## Command Line Options
+
+### Updated Options
+
+```
+--db-path PATH          Database file path (must match pubkey if keys exist)
+--storage-dir DIR       Storage directory for files (default: blobs)
+--admin-pubkey KEY      Admin public key (only used when creating new database)
+--server-privkey KEY    Server private key (creates new DB or validates existing)
+--test-keys             Use test keys from .test_keys file
+--generate-keys         Generate new keypair and create database (deprecated - default behavior)
+--help, -h              Show this help message
+```
+
+### Removed Options
+
+- `--generate-keys` - No longer needed, this is default behavior when no args provided
+
+---
+
+## Database Directory Structure
+
+```
+db/
+├── 52e366edfa4e9cc6a6d4653828e51ccf828a2f5a05227d7a768f33b5a198681a.db  # Test instance
+├── a1b2c3d4e5f6...xyz.db  # Production instance 1
+├── f9e8d7c6b5a4...abc.db  # Production instance 2
+└── schema.sql             # Schema template
+```
+
+Each database is completely independent and tied to its keypair.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Logic Flow
+
+```
+START
+  │
+  ├─ Parse command line arguments
+  │
+  ├─ Initialize crypto system
+  │
+  ├─ Determine mode:
+  │   │
+  │   ├─ Test mode (--test-keys)?
+  │   │   ├─ Load keys from .test_keys
+  │   │   ├─ Derive pubkey
+  │   │   ├─ Set db_path = db/<pubkey>.db
+  │   │   └─ Create/overwrite database
+  │   │
+  │   ├─ Keys provided (--server-privkey)?
+  │   │   ├─ Validate privkey format
+  │   │   ├─ Derive pubkey
+  │   │   ├─ Set db_path = db/<pubkey>.db
+  │   │   │
+  │   │   ├─ Database specified (--db-path)?
+  │   │   │   ├─ YES: Validate keys match database
+  │   │   │   └─ NO: Create new database
+  │   │   │
+  │   │   └─ Store keys in database
+  │   │
+  │   ├─ Database specified (--db-path)?
+  │   │   ├─ Open database
+  │   │   ├─ Load blossom_seckey
+  │   │   ├─ Derive pubkey
+  │   │   ├─ Validate pubkey matches filename
+  │   │   └─ Load admin_pubkey
+  │   │
+  │   └─ No arguments (fresh start)?
+  │       ├─ Generate new keypair
+  │       ├─ Set db_path = db/<new_pubkey>.db
+  │       └─ Create new database with keys
+  │
+  ├─ Initialize database schema (if new)
+  │
+  ├─ Load/validate all keys
+  │
+  └─ Start FastCGI server
+```
+
+---
+
+## Migration Path
+
+### For Existing Installations
+
+1. **Backup current database:**
+   ```bash
+   cp db/ginxsom.db db/ginxsom.db.backup
+   ```
+
+2. **Extract current pubkey:**
+   ```bash
+   PUBKEY=$(sqlite3 db/ginxsom.db "SELECT value FROM config WHERE key='blossom_pubkey'")
+   ```
+
+3. **Rename database:**
+   ```bash
+   mv db/ginxsom.db db/${PUBKEY}.db
+   ```
+
+4. **Update restart-all.sh:**
+   - Remove hardcoded `db/ginxsom.db` references
+   - Let application determine database name from keys
+
+---
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Database-Key Consistency:** Impossible to use wrong database with wrong keys
+2. **Multiple Instances:** Can run multiple independent instances with different keys
+3. **Clear Identity:** Database filename immediately identifies the server
+4. **Test Isolation:** Test databases are clearly separate from production
+5. **No Accidental Overwrites:** Each keypair has its own database
+6. **Follows c-relay Pattern:** Proven architecture from production relay software
+

+
+## Error Messages
+
+### Clear, Actionable Errors
+
+```
+ERROR: Database file not found: db/52e366ed...198681a.db
+  → Specify a different database or let the application create a new one
+
+ERROR: Invalid database: missing server keys
+  → Database is corrupted or not a valid ginxsom database
+
+ERROR: Database pubkey mismatch
+  Expected: 52e366edfa4e9cc6a6d4653828e51ccf828a2f5a05227d7a768f33b5a198681a

+ERROR: Database already exists for this pubkey: db/52e366ed...198681a.db
+  → Use --db-path to open existing database or use different keys
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Test Cases
+
+1. **Fresh start (no args)** → Creates new database with generated keys
+2. **Specify database** → Opens and validates existing database
+3. **Specify keys** → Creates new database with those keys
+4. **Test mode** → Uses test keys and creates test database
+5. **Database + matching keys** → Validates and continues
+6. **Database + mismatched keys** → Errors appropriately
+7. **Invalid database path** → Clear error message
+8. **Corrupted database** → Detects and reports
+
+### Test Script
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Test database naming system
+
+# Test 1: Fresh start
+./ginxsom-fcgi --generate-keys
+# Should create db/<new_pubkey>.db

+# Ginxsom Management System Design
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This document outlines the design for a secure management interface for ginxsom (Blossom media storage server) based on c-relay's proven admin system architecture. The design uses Kind 23456/23457 events with NIP-44 encryption over WebSocket for real-time admin operations.

+
+## 2. Database Schema
+
+### 2.1 Core Tables
+
+Following c-relay's minimal approach, we need only two tables for key management:
+
+#### relay_seckey Table
+```sql
+-- Stores relay's private key (used for signing Kind 23457 responses)
+CREATE TABLE relay_seckey (
+    private_key_hex TEXT NOT NULL CHECK (length(private_key_hex) = 64),
+    created_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now'))
+);
+```
+
+**Note**: This table stores the relay's private key as plain hex (no encryption). The key is used to:
+- Sign Kind 23457 response events
+- Encrypt responses using NIP-44 (shared secret with admin pubkey)
+
+#### config Table (Extended)
+```sql
+-- Existing config table, add admin_pubkey entry
+INSERT INTO config (key, value, data_type, description, category, requires_restart)
+VALUES (
+    'admin_pubkey',
+    '<64-char-hex-pubkey>',
+    'string',
+    'Public key of authorized admin (hex format)',
+    'security',
+    0
+);
+```
+
+**Note**: Admin public key is stored in the config table, not a separate table. Admin private key is NEVER stored anywhere.
+
+### 2.2 Schema Comparison with c-relay
+
+| c-relay | ginxsom | Purpose |
+|---------|---------|---------|
+| `relay_seckey` (private_key_hex, created_at) | `relay_seckey` (private_key_hex, created_at) | Relay private key storage |
+| `config` table entry for admin_pubkey | `config` table entry for admin_pubkey | Admin authorization |
+| No audit log | No audit log | Keep it simple |
+| No processed events tracking | No processed events tracking | Stateless processing |
+
+### 2.3 Key Storage Strategy
+
+**Relay Private Key**:
+- Stored in `relay_seckey` table as plain 64-character hex
+- Generated on first startup or provided via `--relay-privkey` CLI option
+- Used for signing Kind 23457 responses and NIP-44 encryption
+- Never exposed via API
+
+**Admin Public Key**:
+- Stored in `config` table as plain 64-character hex
+- Generated on first startup or provided via `--admin-pubkey` CLI option
+- Used to verify Kind 23456 command signatures
+- Can be queried via admin API
+
+**Admin Private Key**:
+- NEVER stored anywhere in the system
+- Kept only by the admin in their client/tool
+- Used to sign Kind 23456 commands and decrypt Kind 23457 responses
+
+## 3. API Design
+
+### 3.1 Command Structure
+
+Following c-relay's pattern, all commands use JSON array format:
+
+```json
+["command_name", {"param1": "value1", "param2": "value2"}]
+```
+
+### 3.2 Event Structure
+
+#### Kind 23456 - Admin Command Event
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 23456,
+  "pubkey": "<admin-pubkey-hex>",
+  "created_at": 1234567890,
+  "tags": [
+    ["p", "<relay-pubkey-hex>"]
+  ],
+  "content": "<nip44-encrypted-command-array>",
+  "sig": "<signature>"
+}
+```
+
+**Content (decrypted)**:
+```json
+["blob_list", {"limit": 100, "offset": 0}]
+```
+
+#### Kind 23457 - Admin Response Event
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": 23457,
+  "pubkey": "<relay-pubkey-hex>",
+  "created_at": 1234567890,
+  "tags": [
+    ["p", "<admin-pubkey-hex>"],
+    ["e", "<original-command-event-id>"]
+  ],
+  "content": "<nip44-encrypted-response>",
+  "sig": "<signature>"
+}
+```
+
+**Content (decrypted)**:
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": {
+    "blobs": [
+      {"sha256": "abc123...", "size": 1024, "type": "image/png"},

+    ],
+    "total": 2
+  }
+}
+```

+2. Implement WebSocket client
+3. Create command forms
+4. Add real-time updates
+5. Deploy dashboard
+
+**Deliverables**:
+- Working web dashboard
+- User documentation
+- Deployment guide
+
+## 6. Security Considerations
+
+### 6.1 Key Security
+
+**Relay Private Key**:
+- Stored in database as plain hex (following c-relay pattern)
+- Never exposed via API
+- Used only for signing responses
+- Backed up with database
+
+**Admin Private Key**:
+- NEVER stored on server
+- Kept only by admin
+- Used to sign commands
+- Should be stored securely by admin (password manager, hardware key, etc.)
+
+**Admin Public Key**:
+- Stored in config table
+- Used for authorization
+- Can be rotated by updating config
+
+### 6.2 Authorization Flow
+
+1. Receive Kind 23456 event
+2. Verify event signature (nostr_verify_event_signature)
+3. Check pubkey matches admin_pubkey from config
+4. Verify 'p' tag targets this relay
+5. Decrypt content using NIP-44
+6. Parse and validate command
+7. Execute command
+8. Encrypt response using NIP-44
+9. Sign Kind 23457 response
+10. Send response
+
+### 6.3 Attack Mitigation
+
+**Replay Attacks**:
+- Check event timestamp (reject old events)
+- Optional: Track processed event IDs (if needed)
+
+**Unauthorized Access**:
+- Strict pubkey verification
+- Signature validation
+- Relay targeting check
+
+**Command Injection**:
+- Validate all command parameters
+- Use parameterized SQL queries
+- Sanitize file paths
+
+**DoS Protection**:
+- Rate limit admin commands
+- Timeout long-running operations
+- Limit response sizes
+
+## 7. Command Line Interface
+
+### 7.1 CLI Options (Following c-relay Pattern)
+
+```bash
+ginxsom [OPTIONS]
+
+Options:
+  -h, --help                Show help message
+  -v, --version             Show version information
+  -p, --port PORT           Override server port
+  --strict-port             Fail if exact port unavailable
+  -a, --admin-pubkey KEY    Override admin public key (hex or npub)
+  -r, --relay-privkey KEY   Override relay private key (hex or nsec)
+  --debug-level=N           Set debug level (0-5)
+
+Examples:
+  ginxsom                           # Start server (auto-generate keys on first run)
+  ginxsom -p 8080                   # Start on port 8080
+  ginxsom -a <npub>                 # Set admin pubkey
+  ginxsom -r <nsec>                 # Set relay privkey
+  ginxsom --debug-level=3           # Enable info-level debugging
+```
+
+### 7.2 First Startup Behavior
+
+On first startup (no database exists):
+
+1. Generate relay keypair
+2. Generate admin keypair
+3. Print keys ONCE to console:
+```
+=== Ginxsom First Startup ===
+
+Relay Keys (for server):
+  Public Key (npub): npub1...
+  Private Key (nsec): nsec1...
+
+Admin Keys (for you):
+  Public Key (npub): npub1...
+  Private Key (nsec): nsec1...
+
+IMPORTANT: Save these keys securely!
+The admin private key will NOT be shown again.
+The relay private key is stored in the database.
+
+Database created: <relay-pubkey>.db
+```
+
+4. Store relay private key in database
+5. Store admin public key in config
+6. Start server
+
+### 7.3 Subsequent Startups
+
+On subsequent startups:
+
+1. Find existing database file
+2. Load relay private key from database
+3. Load admin public key from config
+4. Apply CLI overrides if provided
+5. Start server
+
+## 8. Comparison with c-relay
+
+### 8.1 Similarities
+
+| Feature | c-relay | ginxsom |
+|---------|---------|---------|
+| Event Types | Kind 23456/23457 | Kind 23456/23457 |
+| Encryption | NIP-44 | NIP-44 |
+| Command Format | JSON arrays | JSON arrays |
+| Key Storage | relay_seckey table | relay_seckey table |
+| Admin Auth | config table | config table |
+| CLI Options | --admin-pubkey, --relay-privkey | --admin-pubkey, --relay-privkey |
+| Response Format | Encrypted JSON | Encrypted JSON |
+
+### 8.2 Differences
+
+| Aspect | c-relay | ginxsom |
+|--------|---------|---------|
+| Transport | WebSocket (Nostr relay) | WebSocket (FastCGI) |
+| Commands | Relay-specific (auth, config, stats) | Blossom-specific (blob, storage, mirror) |
+| Database | SQLite (events) | SQLite (blobs + metadata) |
+| File Storage | N/A | Blob storage on disk |
+| Integration | Standalone relay | FastCGI + nginx |
+
+### 8.3 Architectural Decisions
+
+**Why follow c-relay's pattern?**
+1. Proven in production
+2. Simple and secure
+3. No complex key management
+4. Minimal database schema
+5. Easy to understand and maintain
+
+**What we're NOT doing (from initial design)**:
+1. ❌ NIP-17 gift wrap (too complex)
+2. ❌ Separate admin_keys table (use config)
+3. ❌ Audit log table (keep it simple)
+4. ❌ Processed events tracking (stateless)
+5. ❌ Key encryption before storage (plain hex)
+6. ❌ Migration strategy (new project)
+
+## 9. Testing Strategy
+
+### 9.1 Unit Tests
+
+**admin_keys.c**:
+- Key generation produces valid keys
+- Keys can be stored and retrieved
+- Invalid keys are rejected
+
+**admin_auth.c**:
+- Valid admin events pass authorization
+- Invalid signatures are rejected
+- Wrong pubkeys are rejected
+- Expired events are rejected
+
+**admin_handlers.c**:
+- Each command handler works correctly
+- Invalid parameters are rejected
+- Error responses are properly formatted
+
+### 9.2 Integration Tests
+
+**Full Flow**:
+1. Generate admin keypair
+2. Create Kind 23456 command
+3. Send via WebSocket
+4. Verify authorization
+5. Execute command
+6. Receive Kind 23457 response
+7. Decrypt and verify response
+
+**Security Tests**:
+- Unauthorized pubkey rejected
+- Invalid signature rejected
+- Replay attack prevented
+- Command injection prevented
+
+### 9.3 Performance Tests
+
+- WebSocket connection handling
+- Command processing latency
+- Concurrent admin operations
+- Large response handling
+
+## 10. Future Enhancements
+
+### 10.1 Short Term
+
+1. **Command History**: Track admin commands for audit
+2. **Multi-Admin Support**: Multiple authorized admin pubkeys
+3. **Role-Based Access**: Different permission levels
+4. **Batch Operations**: Execute multiple commands in one request
+
+### 10.2 Long Term
+
+1. **Web Dashboard**: Full-featured web UI
+2. **Monitoring Integration**: Prometheus/Grafana metrics
+3. **Backup Automation**: Scheduled backups
+4. **Replication**: Multi-server blob replication
+5. **Advanced Analytics**: Usage patterns, trends, predictions
+
+## 11. References
+
+### 11.1 Nostr NIPs
+
+- **NIP-01**: Basic protocol flow
+- **NIP-04**: Encrypted Direct Messages (deprecated, but reference)
+- **NIP-19**: bech32-encoded entities (npub, nsec)
+- **NIP-44**: Versioned Encryption (used for admin commands)
+
+### 11.2 Blossom Specifications
+
+- **BUD-01**: Blob Upload/Download
+- **BUD-02**: Blob Descriptor
+- **BUD-04**: Mirroring
+- **BUD-06**: Upload Requirements
+- **BUD-08**: NIP-94 Integration
+- **BUD-09**: Blob Reporting
+
+### 11.3 c-relay Source Files
+
+- `c-relay/src/dm_admin.c` - Admin event processing
+- `c-relay/src/api.c` - NIP-44 encryption
+- `c-relay/src/config.c` - Key storage
+- `c-relay/src/main.c` - CLI options
+- `c-relay/src/sql_schema.h` - Database schema
