deployment

Production runs the frontend/nginx, ASP.NET API, AI sidecar, and configured database through Docker Compose. The backend is not published directly; nginx proxies /api. deploy/deploy.sh validates configuration, takes and verifies a provider-appropriate backup before replacement, builds/restarts the stack, and performs health checks. The protected production workflow explicitly rebuilds the AI sidecar so application and AI contracts always come from the same tested commit.

Production commands explicitly select docker-compose.yml. The operator-owned reverse proxy still targets frontend/nginx through compatibility port 3000. Whether the deployed firewall blocks direct external access requires host verification; the repository cannot prove it. Production nginx now requires INGRESS_PROXY_CIDRS, an explicit allowlist of the observed socket peers belonging to Traefik. Canonical Host and forwarded headers alone do not grant access. Traefik must match the canonical Host, terminate TLS and replace forwarding headers with one client IP and https. Nginx uses its realip module only for those peers, emits one normalized IP and canonical scheme/Host to the backend, and rejects untrusted application requests and multi-hop chains. Empty peer configuration fails startup and the deployment preflight. The default-host /health remains a local/container liveness exception. This repository change still awaits real nginx/container and production topology verification; see B06 evidence and exact operator procedure.

Nginx reaches the backend over dedicated WEB_PROXY_SUBNET; the backend trusts that CIDR for one hop, ignores forwarded Host and validates the canonical application Host in Production. Public URLs and cookie security use APP_PUBLIC_BASE_URL. Production CORS defaults to that same origin and rejects noncanonical overrides. Local development explicitly adds docker-compose.dev.yml, which publishes ports 3000/5202, uses the localhost origin, and disables forwarded-header trust with nginx's INGRESS_MODE=direct.

Each service rotates local Docker logs at 10 MB and retains three files. Add a central sink only if cross-host search or longer retention becomes necessary.

Use deploy/README.md, deploy/first-production-deployment.md, and docs/deployment/backup-restore.md as the operational runbooks.
