Summary

• Migrate the CI3 application to Composer-managed CodeIgniter 4.7.5 and PHP 8.5.
• Move application code to app/ and the document root to public/; replace legacy loader, database, session, validation, CSRF, view, and email APIs with native CI4 services.
• Preserve historical model-version keys, table naming, password hashes, transaction workflows, and the existing inactive-user filtering from the fork.
• Update PHP-FPM/Nginx containers, configuration examples, migration documentation, CI, and regression coverage.

Upstream master was fetched and checked before publication. This includes all 38 upstream commits missing from the fork, through 477d204; no newer master commits were found beyond the already pending merge.

Validation

• docker compose exec -T php-fpm composer test: passed on PHP 8.5.11, using an isolated in-memory database.
• npx cypress run --record false: all 8 tests passed against the local MariaDB-backed Docker stack, covering installer rerun, login validation, administrator views, CSRF, API access, user creation, consumption transactions, and leaderboard rendering.
• git diff --cached --check: passed before committing.

Deployment Caveats

This is a staging-ready application conversion, not certification of a production-database upgrade.

• Back up and verify restoration, rehearse against a production database copy, and compare users, roles, balances, transactions, and migration versions. Schema changes must not be assumed transactionally reversible.
• Configure explicit persistent database storage and replace development credentials before production. The Compose database remains MariaDB 10.4.
• Restrict /Install to operators in production. Existing sessions are replaced; users must log in again.
• Production SMTP delivery, concurrent transaction workloads, and a real production-database upgrade have not been verified.
• Existing frontend dependency advisories remain outside the scope of this migration.

[Addono]

There's some things in here which rewrite the origin repo to your fork, doesn't make sense to merge it like this :)

There's something similar happening in the composer.json file.
