## Development

### Local Development

```bash
# Clone repository (if tracked in Git)
cd ~/claude-projects/msp-toolkit

# Edit scripts
code scripts/Get-SystemInfo.ps1

# Test locally
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/Get-SystemInfo.ps1
```

### Testing

```powershell
# Test script syntax
powershell -File Test-Script.ps1

# Analyze with PSScriptAnalyzer
Install-Module -Name PSScriptAnalyzer -Force
Invoke-ScriptAnalyzer -Path scripts/Get-SystemInfo.ps1
```

### Deployment

#### Automatic Deployment
```batch
# Run deployment script (Windows)
deploy.bat
```

#### Manual Deployment
```bash
# Deploy main launcher
scp msp-toolkit.ps1 claude@ix.azcomputerguru.com:/home/azcomputerguru/public_html/tools/

# Deploy all scripts
scp scripts/*.ps1 claude@ix.azcomputerguru.com:/home/azcomputerguru/public_html/tools/

# Set permissions
ssh claude@ix.azcomputerguru.com "chmod 644 /home/azcomputerguru/public_html/tools/*.ps1"

# Verify deployment
curl -I https://www.azcomputerguru.com/tools/msp-toolkit.ps1
```

chmod 644 /home/azcomputerguru/public_html/tools/*.ps1

# Directory: 755 (rwxr-xr-x)
chmod 755 /home/azcomputerguru/public_html/tools/
```

### MIME Type
Apache serves .ps1 files as text/plain by default (correct for PowerShell scripts).

## Security Considerations

### Transport Security
- **HTTPS Required:** All scripts served over TLS
- **Certificate:** Let's Encrypt (auto-renewed via cPanel)
- **Integrity:** Scripts signed with code signing certificate (future enhancement)

### Script Safety
- **Execution Policy:** Scripts use `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass` flag
- **No Automatic Execution:** User must explicitly run `iex (irm ...)`
- **Review Before Use:** Technicians should review scripts before deployment
- **Sensitive Parameters:** Passwords, API keys handled carefully

### Best Practices
1. Always review scripts before executing in production
2. Test in sandbox environment first
3. Validate script integrity (hash checking - future)
4. Rotate API keys periodically (RMMAgent.ps1)
5. Log script executions for audit trail

---

## Usage Examples

### Typical Workflow: New Client Onboarding

```powershell
# 1. Gather system information
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Get-SystemInfo.ps1)

# 2. Run health check
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Invoke-HealthCheck.ps1)

# 3. Create local admin account
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Create-LocalAdmin.ps1) -Username "ACGAdmin"
# SAVE PASSWORD IMMEDIATELY!

# 4. Install RMM agent
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Install-RMMAgent.ps1)

# 5. Configure static IP (if needed)
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Set-StaticIP.ps1)

# 6. Join domain (if applicable)
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Join-Domain.ps1)
```

### Troubleshooting Client Issue

```powershell
# Quick diagnostic check
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Invoke-HealthCheck.ps1)

# Detailed system information
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/Get-SystemInfo.ps1) | Out-File C:\system-info.txt
```

- [ ] Script versioning and rollback capability
- [ ] Logging and execution history in GuruRMM
- [ ] Additional scripts for common MSP tasks
- [ ] API endpoints for RMM integration
- [ ] Multi-tenancy support (client-specific scripts)

### Ideas

- **Windows Updates:** Script to check and install updates
- **Software Deployment:** Install common applications (Chrome, Adobe Reader, etc.)
- **Security Audit:** Comprehensive security posture assessment
- **Network Diagnostics:** Advanced network troubleshooting
- **Backup Verification:** Check backup status (Veeam, Windows Backup, etc.)
- **Certificate Management:** Check SSL/TLS certificate expiration
- **Group Policy Status:** Verify GPO application
- **Event Log Analysis:** Parse event logs for specific errors

---

## Troubleshooting

### Script Won't Download

**Issue:** `iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/script.ps1)` fails

**Check:**
1. Internet connectivity: `Test-NetConnection azcomputerguru.com -Port 443`
2. DNS resolution: `nslookup azcomputerguru.com`
3. Firewall blocking HTTPS?
4. Proxy configuration needed?

**Solution:**
```powershell
# Test basic connectivity
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://www.azcomputerguru.com/tools/msp-toolkit.ps1 -UseBasicParsing

# Try with explicit proxy
$proxy = [System.Net.WebRequest]::GetSystemWebProxy()
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://www.azcomputerguru.com/tools/msp-toolkit.ps1 -Proxy $proxy.GetProxy("https://www.azcomputerguru.com")
```

### Execution Policy Restriction

**Issue:** Script execution blocked by execution policy

**Solution:**
```powershell
# Check current policy
Get-ExecutionPolicy

# Bypass for single session
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/script.ps1)

# OR use -ExecutionPolicy flag
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/script.ps1)"
```

### Script Error

**Issue:** Script fails with unexpected error

**Debug:**
```powershell
# Enable verbose output
$VerbosePreference = "Continue"
iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/script.ps1)

# Capture error details
try {
    iex (irm azcomputerguru.com/tools/script.ps1)
} catch {
    $_.Exception.Message
    $_.ScriptStackTrace
}
```

## Monitoring and Logs

### Server Logs

**Apache Access Log:** `/var/log/apache2/access_log` or `/usr/local/apache/logs/domlogs/azcomputerguru.com`

**Track Usage:**
```bash
# Count script downloads
grep "GET /tools/" /var/log/apache2/access_log | wc -l

# Most popular scripts
grep "GET /tools/" /var/log/apache2/access_log | awk '{print $7}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
```

### Client Execution Logs

**Future:** Integrate with GuruRMM to log script executions
- Machine ID
- Script name
- Execution timestamp
- Result (success/failure)
- Output summary
