docs: rewrite seq-auth-flow.puml for the Spring Session model (ADR-020)

Removes the cookie-promotion step (auth_token → Authorization: Basic) and
splits the diagram into three labelled phases: Login, Authenticated
request, Logout. Adds the spring_session DB round-trip on every
authenticated request and the alt branch for an expired session
returning 401 → /login?reason=expired.

- * Promotes the {@code auth_token} cookie to an {@code Authorization} header
- * so that browser-side requests to {@code /api/*} authenticate the same way
- * SSR fetches do.
- *
- * <p>The SvelteKit login action stores the full HTTP Basic header value
- * ({@code "Basic <base64>"}) in an HttpOnly cookie. SSR fetches from
- * {@code hooks.server.ts} read the cookie and pass it explicitly as the
- * {@code Authorization} header. In the dev environment, Vite's proxy does
- * the same on every {@code /api/*} request (see {@code vite.config.ts}).
- * In production, Caddy proxies {@code /api/*} straight to the backend and
- * does NOT translate the cookie — so client-side {@code fetch} and
- * {@code EventSource} calls reach the backend without auth, get
- * {@code 401 WWW-Authenticate: Basic}, and the browser pops a native dialog.
- *
- * <p>This filter closes that gap: if a request has an {@code auth_token}
- * cookie but no explicit {@code Authorization} header, promote the cookie
- * value (URL-decoded) into the header before Spring Security inspects it.
- * Explicit {@code Authorization} headers are preserved unchanged.
- *
- * <p>See #520. Filter runs at {@code Ordered.HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE} so it
- * mutates the request before any Spring Security filter sees it.
- *
- * <p><b>Scope:</b> only {@code /api/*} requests are touched. The
- * {@code /actuator/*} block in Caddy plus the open auth/reset paths in
- * {@link SecurityConfig} must NOT receive a promoted Authorization.
- *
- * <p><b>⚠ Log-leakage warning:</b> the wrapped request exposes the
- * Authorization header via {@code getHeaderNames}/{@code getHeaders}. Any
- * filter or interceptor that iterates request headers will see the live
- * Basic credential. Do NOT add a request-header logger downstream of this
- * filter without explicitly scrubbing the {@code Authorization} field.

-### Future observability
+### Observability stack
 
-Phase 7 of the Production v1 milestone adds Prometheus + Loki + Grafana. No monitoring infrastructure is in place yet.
+An observability stack is available via `docker-compose.observability.yml`. Configuration lives under `infra/observability/`.
+
+#### Dev — start from the workspace
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d                                    # creates archiv-net
+docker compose -f docker-compose.observability.yml up -d
+```
+
+#### Why the obs stack is managed differently from the main app stack
+
+The main app stack (`docker-compose.prod.yml`) has no config-file bind mounts — its containers read config from env vars and image defaults. The workspace is wiped after each CI run but that does not affect running containers, because they hold no references to workspace paths.
+
+The obs stack is different: `prometheus.yml`, `tempo.yml`, Loki config, Grafana provisioning files, and Promtail config are all bind-mounted from the host filesystem into their containers. If those source paths disappear (workspace wipe), the containers can restart fine until a `docker compose up` is run again — at that point Docker tries to re-resolve the bind-mount source and fails because the workspace path no longer exists.
+
+The fix is to keep the obs compose file and config tree at a **permanent path** that CI copies to on every run but which survives between runs: `/opt/familienarchiv/` (see ADR-016).
+
+#### Production — managed from `/opt/familienarchiv/`
+
+Every CI run (nightly + release) copies `docker-compose.observability.yml` and `infra/observability/` to `/opt/familienarchiv/` before starting the stack. Bind mounts then resolve to `/opt/familienarchiv/infra/observability/…` — a stable path that outlasts any workspace wipe.
+
+**Environment variables** follow the same two-source model as the main stack:
+
+| Source | What it contains | Managed by |
+|---|---|---|
+| `infra/observability/obs.env` | All non-secret config (ports, URLs, hostnames) | Git — reviewed in PRs |
+| `/opt/familienarchiv/obs-secrets.env` | Passwords and secret keys only | CI — written fresh from Gitea secrets on every deploy |
+
+Both files are passed explicitly via `--env-file` to the compose command, so there is no implicit auto-read `.env` and no operator-managed file to keep in sync.
+
+**Non-secret config** (`infra/observability/obs.env`):
+
+| Key | Value | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `PORT_GRAFANA` | `3003` | Avoids collision with staging frontend on port 3001 |
+| `PORT_GLITCHTIP` | `3002` | |
+| `PORT_PROMETHEUS` | `9090` | |
+| `GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL` | `https://grafana.archiv.raddatz.cloud` | Required for alert email links and OAuth redirects |
+| `GLITCHTIP_DOMAIN` | `https://glitchtip.archiv.raddatz.cloud` | Must match the Caddy vhost |
+| `POSTGRES_HOST` | `archive-db` | Override if only the staging stack is running |
+
+**Secret keys** (set in Gitea secrets, injected by CI into `obs-secrets.env`):
+
+| Gitea secret | Notes |
+|---|---|
+| `GRAFANA_ADMIN_PASSWORD` | Strong unique password; shared by nightly and release |
+| `GLITCHTIP_SECRET_KEY` | `openssl rand -hex 32`; shared by nightly and release |
+| `STAGING_POSTGRES_PASSWORD` / `PROD_POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | Must match the running PostgreSQL container |
+
+To start or restart the obs stack manually on the server (after CI has run at least once):
+
+```bash
+docker compose \
+  -f /opt/familienarchiv/docker-compose.observability.yml \
+  --env-file /opt/familienarchiv/infra/observability/obs.env \
+  --env-file /opt/familienarchiv/obs-secrets.env \
+  up -d --wait --remove-orphans
+```
+
+> **Note (manual ops only):** CI clears the destination with `rm -rf` before copying, so deleted files are removed automatically on the next run. If you copy manually with `cp -r` without first removing the directory, stale files from deleted configs will persist until cleaned up:
+> ```bash
+> rm /opt/familienarchiv/infra/observability/<path-to-removed-file>
+> ```
+
+Current services:
+
+| Service | Image | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `obs-prometheus` | `prom/prometheus:v3.4.0` | Scrapes metrics from backend management port 8081 (`/actuator/prometheus`), node-exporter, and cAdvisor |
+| `obs-node-exporter` | `prom/node-exporter:v1.9.0` | Host-level CPU / memory / disk / network metrics |
+| `obs-cadvisor` | `gcr.io/cadvisor/cadvisor:v0.52.1` | Per-container resource metrics |
+| `obs-loki` | `grafana/loki:3.4.2` | Log aggregation — receives log streams from Promtail. Port 3100 is `expose`-only (not host-bound). |
+| `obs-promtail` | `grafana/promtail:3.4.2` | Log shipping agent — reads all Docker container logs via the Docker socket and forwards them to Loki with `container_name`, `compose_service`, `compose_project`, and `job` labels. The `job` label is mapped from the Docker Compose service name (`com.docker.compose.service`) so that Grafana Loki dashboard queries (`{job="backend"}`, `{job="frontend"}`) work out of the box and the "App" variable dropdown is populated. |
+| `obs-tempo` | `grafana/tempo:2.7.2` | Distributed trace storage — OTLP HTTP receiver on port 4318 (`archiv-net`-internal; backend sends traces here). Grafana queries traces on port 3200 (`obs-net`-internal). All ports are `expose`-only (not host-bound). |
+| `obs-grafana` | `grafana/grafana-oss:11.6.1` | Unified observability UI — metrics dashboards, log exploration, trace viewer. Bound to `127.0.0.1:${PORT_GRAFANA:-3003}` on the host. |
+| `obs-glitchtip` | `glitchtip/glitchtip:6.1.6` | Sentry-compatible error tracker. Receives frontend + backend error events, groups by fingerprint, provides issue UI with stack traces. Bound to `127.0.0.1:${PORT_GLITCHTIP:-3002}`. |
+| `obs-glitchtip-worker` | `glitchtip/glitchtip:6.1.6` | Celery + beat worker — processes async GlitchTip tasks (event ingestion, notifications, cleanup). |
+| `obs-redis` | `redis:7-alpine` | Celery task broker for GlitchTip. Internal to `obs-net`; no host port exposed. |
+| `obs-glitchtip-db-init` | `postgres:16-alpine` | One-shot init container. Creates the `glitchtip` database on the existing `archive-db` PostgreSQL instance if it does not already exist. Runs at stack startup; exits cleanly once done. |
+
+#### Grafana
+
+| Item | Value |
+|---|---|
+| URL | `http://localhost:3003` (or `http://localhost:$PORT_GRAFANA`) |
+| Username | `admin` |
+| Password | `$GRAFANA_ADMIN_PASSWORD` (default: `changeme` — **change before exposing to a network**) |
+
+Datasources are auto-provisioned on first start (Prometheus, Loki, Tempo — no manual setup required). Three dashboards are pre-loaded:
+
+| Dashboard | Grafana ID | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| Node Exporter Full | 1860 | Host CPU, memory, disk, network |
+| Spring Boot Observability | 17175 | JVM metrics, HTTP latency, error rate |
+| Loki Logs | 13639 | Log exploration and filtering |
+
+Tempo traces are accessible via Grafana Explore → Tempo datasource, and linked from Loki logs via the `traceId` derived field.
+
+**Loki quick checks** (after ~60 s, run from inside the `obs-loki` container):
+
+```bash
+# Loki health
+docker exec obs-loki wget -qO- http://localhost:3100/ready
+
+# List labels
+docker exec obs-loki wget -qO- 'http://localhost:3100/loki/api/v1/labels'
+
+# Query logs by service (stable across dev and prod environments)
+docker exec obs-loki wget -qO- \
+  'http://localhost:3100/loki/api/v1/query_range?query=%7Bcompose_service%3D%22backend%22%7D&limit=5'
+```
+
+**Prefer `compose_service` over `container_name` in LogQL queries** — `container_name` differs between dev (`archive-backend`) and prod (`archiv-production-backend-1`), while `compose_service` is stable (`backend`, `db`, `minio`, etc.).
+
+Prometheus port `9090` and Grafana port `3003` (default; configurable via `PORT_GRAFANA`) are bound to `127.0.0.1` on the host. No other observability ports are host-bound.
+
+#### GlitchTip
+
+| Item | Value |
+|---|---|
+| URL | `http://localhost:3002` (or `http://localhost:$PORT_GLITCHTIP`) |
+
+**Required env vars** — set in `.env` before first start:
+
+```bash
+GLITCHTIP_SECRET_KEY=$(python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_hex(32))")
+GLITCHTIP_DOMAIN=http://localhost:3002   # change to your public URL in prod
+PORT_GLITCHTIP=3002                      # optional, defaults to 3002
+```
+
+**Database:** GlitchTip shares the existing `archive-db` PostgreSQL instance. The `obs-glitchtip-db-init` one-shot container creates a dedicated `glitchtip` database on first stack start — no manual step required.
+
+**First-run steps** (one-time, after `docker compose -f docker-compose.observability.yml up -d`):
+
+```bash
+# 1. Create the Django superuser (interactive)
+docker exec -it obs-glitchtip ./manage.py createsuperuser
+
+# 2. Open the GlitchTip UI and log in
+open http://localhost:3002

+### Upgrading to PR #611 — non-root OCR container
+
+The OCR cache volume path changed from `/root/.cache` to `/app/cache` (PR #611 — CIS Docker §4.1 hardening). The existing volume was written as root and is inaccessible to the new non-root `ocr` user, causing a `PermissionError` on startup.
+
+**Before starting the updated container stack**, drop the old root-owned volume. The volume name depends on the compose project name:
+
+```bash
+# Dev (docker-compose.yml — project name: familienarchiv)
+docker volume rm familienarchiv_ocr_cache
+
+# Production (docker-compose.prod.yml -p archiv-production)
+docker volume rm archiv-production_ocr-cache
+
+# Staging (docker-compose.prod.yml -p archiv-staging)
+docker volume rm archiv-staging_ocr-cache
+```
+
+The volume is recreated automatically on `docker compose up`. The OCR service will re-download its model cache on first startup (approximately 1–2 GB, one-time cost).

+
+## Where to look for what
+
+| I want to… | Go to |
+|---|---|
+| See the last N log lines from the backend | `docker compose logs --tail=100 backend` |
+| Search logs by keyword across time | Grafana → Explore → Loki |
+| Understand why an HTTP request failed | Grafana → Explore → Loki → filter by `traceId` → follow link to Tempo |
+| See a full distributed trace (DB queries, HTTP calls) | Grafana → Explore → Tempo → search by service or trace ID |
+| Check JVM heap / GC / thread count | Grafana → Dashboards → Spring Boot Observability |
+| Check HTTP error rate or p95 latency | Grafana → Dashboards → Spring Boot Observability |
+| Check host CPU / memory / disk | Grafana → Dashboards → Node Exporter Full |
+| See grouped application errors with stack traces | GlitchTip |
+| Check if the backend is healthy | `curl http://localhost:8081/actuator/health` (on the server) |
+| Check what Prometheus is scraping | `curl http://localhost:9090/api/v1/targets` (on the server) |
+
+## Access
+
+| Tool | External URL | Who it's for |
+|---|---|---|
+| Grafana | `https://grafana.archiv.raddatz.cloud` | Logs, metrics, traces — the primary observability UI |
+| GlitchTip | `https://glitchtip.archiv.raddatz.cloud` | Grouped errors with stack traces and release tracking |
+
+Loki, Tempo, and Prometheus have no external URL. They are internal services, accessible only through Grafana (or via SSH tunnel — see below).
+
+## Logs (Loki)
+
+Logs reach Loki via Promtail, which reads all Docker container logs from the Docker socket and ships them with labels derived from Docker Compose metadata.
+
+### Labels available in every log line
+
+| Label | What it contains | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `job` | Compose service name | `backend`, `frontend`, `db` |
+| `compose_service` | Same as `job` | `backend` |
+| `compose_project` | Compose project name | `archiv-staging`, `archiv-production` |
+| `container_name` | Docker container name | `archiv-staging-backend-1` |
+| `filename` | Docker log source | `/var/lib/docker/containers/…` |
+
+**Use `job` in LogQL queries** — it is stable across dev, staging, and production. `container_name` changes between environments.
+
+### Common LogQL queries in Grafana Explore
+
+```logql
+# All backend logs
+{job="backend"}
+
+# Backend ERROR and WARN lines only
+{job="backend"} |= "ERROR" or {job="backend"} |= "WARN"
+
+# All logs for a specific request (paste a traceId from a log line)
+{job="backend"} |= "3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6"
+
+# Log lines containing a specific exception class
+{job="backend"} |~ "DomainException|NullPointerException"
+
+# Frontend logs
+{job="frontend"}
+
+# Database (slow query log, if enabled)
+{job="db"}
+```
+
+### Log → Trace correlation
+
+Spring Boot writes the active `traceId` into every log line when a request is being processed:
+
+```
+2026-05-16 ... INFO  [Familienarchiv,3fa85f64...,1b2c3d4e] o.r.f.document.DocumentService : ...
+```
+
+In Grafana Explore → Loki, log lines with a `traceId` field show a **Tempo** link. Clicking it opens the full trace in Explore → Tempo without copying and pasting IDs.
+
+This linking is configured in the Loki datasource provisioning via the `traceId` derived field regex. No manual setup required.
+
+## Traces (Tempo)
+
+The backend sends traces to Tempo via OTLP HTTP (port 4318). Every inbound HTTP request and every JPA query produces a span. Spans are linked into traces by the propagated `traceId` header.
+
+### Finding a trace in Grafana
+
+**Option A — from a log line:**
+1. Grafana → Explore → select *Loki* datasource
+2. Query `{job="backend"}` and find the failing request
+3. Click the **Tempo** link in the log line (appears when `traceId` is present)
+
+**Option B — by service:**
+1. Grafana → Explore → select *Tempo* datasource
+2. Query type: **Search**
+3. Service name: `familienarchiv-backend`
+4. Filter by HTTP status, duration, or operation name as needed
+
+**Option C — by trace ID:**
+1. Grafana → Explore → select *Tempo* datasource
+2. Query type: **TraceQL** or **Trace ID**
+3. Paste the trace ID
+
+### What each span type tells you
+
+| Root span name pattern | What it covers |
+|---|---|
+| `GET /api/documents`, `POST /api/documents` | Full HTTP request lifecycle |
+| `SELECT archiv.*` | A single JPA/JDBC query inside that request |
+| `HikariPool.getConnection` | Connection pool wait time |
+
+A slow `SELECT` span inside an otherwise fast HTTP span pinpoints a missing index. A slow `HikariPool.getConnection` span indicates connection pool exhaustion.
+
+### Sampling rate
+
+- **Dev**: 100% of requests are traced (`management.tracing.sampling.probability: 1.0` in `application.yaml`)
+- **Staging / Production**: 10% (`MANAGEMENT_TRACING_SAMPLING_PROBABILITY=0.1` in `docker-compose.prod.yml`)
+
+To find a trace for a specific request in staging/production, either increase the sampling rate temporarily or trigger the request multiple times.
+
+## Metrics (Prometheus → Grafana)
+
+Prometheus scrapes the backend management endpoint every 15 s:
+
+```
+Target: backend:8081/actuator/prometheus
+Labels: job="spring-boot", application="Familienarchiv"
+```
+
+All Spring Boot metrics carry the `application="Familienarchiv"` tag, which is how the Grafana Spring Boot Observability dashboard (ID 17175) filters to this service.
+
+### Useful Prometheus queries (run on the server or via Grafana Explore → Prometheus)
+
+```promql
+# HTTP error rate (5xx) as a fraction of all requests
+sum(rate(http_server_requests_seconds_count{status=~"5.."}[5m]))
+  / sum(rate(http_server_requests_seconds_count[5m]))
+
+# p95 response time
+histogram_quantile(0.95, sum by (le) (
+  rate(http_server_requests_seconds_bucket[5m])
+))
+
+# JVM heap used
+jvm_memory_used_bytes{area="heap", application="Familienarchiv"}
+
+# Active DB connections
+hikaricp_connections_active
+```
+
+## Errors (GlitchTip)
+
+GlitchTip receives errors from both the backend (via Sentry Java SDK) and the frontend (via Sentry JavaScript SDK). It groups events by fingerprint, tracks first/last seen times, and links to the release that introduced the error.
+
+GlitchTip complements Loki: use GlitchTip when you need **grouped, de-duplicated errors with stack traces and release attribution**; use Loki when you need **raw log lines with full context** or want to search across all log levels.
+
+## Direct API access (debugging only)
+
+Loki and Tempo bind no host ports. To reach them directly from your laptop, use an SSH tunnel through the server:
+
+```bash
+# Loki API on localhost:3100 (then query via curl or logcli)
+ssh -L 3100:172.20.0.x:3100 root@raddatz.cloud
+# Replace 172.20.0.x with the obs-loki container IP:
+#   docker inspect obs-loki --format '{{.NetworkSettings.Networks.archiv-obs-net.IPAddress}}'
+
+# Tempo API on localhost:3200 (then query via curl or tempo-cli)
+ssh -L 3200:172.20.0.x:3200 root@raddatz.cloud
+```
+
+In practice, Grafana Explore covers all common debugging workflows without needing direct API access.

+# ADR 013 — Client-Project Branch Coverage Threshold
+
+**Status:** Accepted  
+**Date:** 2026-05-14  
+**Issues:** [#556 — threshold drop](https://git.raddatz.cloud/marcel/familienarchiv/issues/556) · [#496 — long-tail-grind tracking](https://git.raddatz.cloud/marcel/familienarchiv/issues/496)
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The browser-mode component test suite (`vitest.client-coverage.config.ts`) enforces Istanbul coverage thresholds across `lines`, `functions`, `branches`, and `statements`. The `branches` metric was set to 80%, but the codebase sits at **75%** — below the gate — causing every CI run of `unit-tests` and `coverage-flake-probe` to fail on this check alone, even when all tests are green.
+
+**Measured baseline (2026-05-14, branch `feat/issue-553-birpc-async-mock-factory`, head `2e6cc346`):**
+
+```
+branches:   75%  (below the 80% gate — reason for this ADR)
+lines:      ≥ 80%
+functions:  ≥ 80%
+statements: ≥ 80%
+```
+
+Reproducer:
+
+```bash
+cd frontend && npm ci && npx vitest run -c vitest.client-coverage.config.ts --coverage
+```
+
+### The long-tail-grind problem
+
+In Istanbul's branch accounting, when a child component gains test coverage its branches are added to the parent's denominator. A child moving from 40% → 80% coverage can drag a parent from 78% → 72% because more branches in the call graph become reachable and must be covered. This is not a bug — it is how branch accounting works — but it means that on a large SvelteKit application the denominator grows with every coverage improvement, making an arbitrary 80% ceiling a constant grind. Per #496, the expected cost to reach 80% branches from 75% is 30–100+ commits with no guarantee of stability.
+
+### Why this layer is different
+
+The 80% branch floor used for backend unit/integration tests is appropriate for Java service code and permission logic. Browser-mode component coverage measures Svelte template branches: conditional class bindings, `{#if}` blocks, empty/loaded/error state guards. These branches have a fundamentally different accounting model and a higher inherent denominator. This ADR **only** lowers the browser-mode component gate; the backend test coverage gates are unaffected.
+
+### Security-relevant uncovered components
+
+The following auth/permission-boundary components currently have low or zero branch coverage. When ratchet-up work begins (see below), these are the highest-priority targets:
+
+- `src/routes/login/+page.svelte`
+- `src/routes/forgot-password/+page.svelte`
+- `src/routes/reset-password/+page.svelte`
+- `src/routes/register/+page.svelte`
+
+Note: the 75% figure already reflects the absence of coverage on these files. Lowering the gate does not create this gap — it makes the existing state legible.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+Drop the `branches` threshold from `80` → `75` in `frontend/vitest.client-coverage.config.ts`. Leave `lines`, `functions`, and `statements` at `80`.
+
+The 75% figure matches the measured current state, allowing CI to pass while deliberate coverage improvement work (tracked in #496) continues without blocking other PRs. The asymmetry in the thresholds block is intentional and documented with an inline comment pointing here.
+
+---
+
+## Ratchet Rule
+
+The branches threshold ratchets **up by 3 percentage points** when the rolling 3-PR-average client-project branches figure on `main` stays at or above `threshold + 3pp` for ≥ 30 consecutive days. Direction is **up-only** — never lower the floor below 75 without a new ADR superseding this one. Manual today (verify before any `vitest.client-coverage.config.ts` edit); a future automation issue may codify the check.
+
+Concretely:
+- When `main` sustains ≥ 78% branches across 3 consecutive PRs for 30 days → raise gate to 78%
+- When `main` sustains ≥ 81% branches across 3 consecutive PRs for 30 days → raise gate back to 80%
+
+---
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- **Not** raising actual branch coverage — that is #496's job, tracked separately.
+- **Not** touching the server-project coverage configuration (`vitest.config.ts`) — only the client project hits the long-tail-grind pattern.
+- **Not** removing or relaxing any existing test files, `skipIf` guards, or axe-playwright accessibility runs.
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+**Easier:**
+- CI unblocked — `unit-tests` and `coverage-flake-probe` jobs pass when all tests are green
+- The ratchet rule creates a concrete, observable path back to 80%
+
+**Harder:**
+- The gate now has near-zero headroom — any branch regression that drops below 75% will fail CI immediately
+- The 75% floor must not be treated as a permanent ceiling; the ratchet discipline requires active attention

+# ADR 014 — Pin actions/upload-artifact to v3 (Gitea act_runner v4 protocol incompatibility)
+
+**Status:** Accepted  
+**Date:** 2026-05-14  
+**Issues:** [#557 — re-regression](https://git.raddatz.cloud/marcel/familienarchiv/issues/557) · [#14 — original incident](https://git.raddatz.cloud/marcel/familienarchiv/issues/14)
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+`actions/upload-artifact` is available in two incompatible major versions. The v4 client
+uploads via a GitHub-specific artifact API that is **not implemented** in Gitea's
+`act_runner` (the self-hosted CI substrate established by ADR-011). When a workflow step
+uses `actions/upload-artifact@v4` on this runner, `act_runner` returns a non-zero exit
+code from the v4 client even when all tests pass, producing:
+
+> green test suite — red job status — no artifact uploaded
+
+The failure lands in the upload step, _after_ the test output, making it hard to diagnose
+from the build log.
+
+### Incident history
+
+| Date | Commit | Event |
+|---|---|---|
+| 2026-03-19 | `9f3f022e` | Original downgrade: `upload-artifact@v4 → v3` |
+| 2026-03-19 | `4142c7cd` | Rationale committed; closes #14 |
+| 2026-05-05 | `410b91e2` | Re-regression: upgraded back to v4 without referencing #14 |
+| 2026-05-14 | this PR | Second downgrade + ADR + grep guard |
+
+The root cause of the re-regression was institutional-memory failure: the original
+rationale was captured only in a commit body, invisible at the point of change (the
+`uses:` line). This ADR, the inline comments, and the grep guard are the three
+defence layers that replace that missing breadcrumb.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+**Pin all `actions/upload-artifact` and `actions/download-artifact` call sites to `@v3`.**
+
+Both action families share the same v4 protocol incompatibility with `act_runner`.
+Pinning to the major tag (`@v3`) keeps us on the latest v3 patch without Renovate noise.
+
+Three call sites are pinned:
+- `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — "Upload coverage reports" step
+- `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — "Upload screenshots" step
+- `.gitea/workflows/coverage-flake-probe.yml` — "Upload coverage log on failure" step
+
+Each pinned `uses:` line carries a load-bearing inline comment:
+
+```yaml
+# Gitea Actions (act_runner) does not implement upload-artifact v4 protocol — pinned per ADR-014. Do NOT upgrade. See #557.
+- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
+```
+
+A CI grep guard enforces the constraint automatically (see below).
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Enforcement layers (defence in depth)
+
+1. **Inline comments** on every `uses:` line — visible at the point of change.
+2. **CI grep guard** in `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` ("Assert no (upload|download)-artifact
+   past v3") — fails the build if a future commit re-introduces `@v4` or higher on any
+   workflow file. Anchored to YAML `uses:` lines to avoid false positives on embedded
+   shell strings. Includes a self-test that proves the regex catches v4+ before scanning
+   the repo.
+3. **This ADR** — canonical rationale; cross-referenced by comments and guard message.
+
+### How to spot the symptom
+
+- Test suite output shows green (vitest, surefire, pytest all exit 0)
+- CI job status shows red
+- Artifacts section of the run is empty
+- Build log shows a non-zero exit from the `Upload …` step immediately after green tests
+
+### `@v3` maintenance-mode status
+
+GitHub placed `actions/upload-artifact@v3` in maintenance mode (no new features) but it
+has not been removed and carries no known unpatched CVE as of this writing. If GitHub
+publishes a v3-specific security advisory, that is an additional trigger to re-evaluate
+(see upgrade conditions below).
+
+### When to remove this pin
+
+Re-evaluate pinning **when either condition is met:**
+
+1. `gitea/act_runner` ships a release with v4 artifact protocol support. Track upstream:
+   <https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner>
+2. `actions/upload-artifact@v3` acquires an unpatched CVE that cannot be mitigated
+   at the runner level.
+
+When upgrading: remove the grep guard step, update all three `uses:` lines, remove the
+inline comments, and update this ADR's status to Superseded.
+
+---
+
+## Alternatives
+
+### SHA pinning (`uses: actions/upload-artifact@<sha>`)
+
+More secure against action repository compromise, but adds Renovate update friction
+and is disproportionate for a self-hosted, single-tenant Gitea instance with one
+trusted contributor (ADR-011). Rejected.
+
+### Minor/patch pinning (`@v3.4.0`)
+
+Avoids Renovate PRs but freezes us on a specific patch. The v3 major track is in
+maintenance mode — minor pinning has no benefit and would require manual updates
+for any v3 security patches. Rejected.
+
+### Renovate `packageRules` bypass
+
+Would prevent automated PRs from proposing v4. Not needed while Renovate is not
+configured for this repository. Revisit if Renovate is introduced.
+
+### Migrating the runner to a v4-compatible Gitea release
+
+Out of scope for this issue. A separate decision; tracked in #557's non-goals.

+# ADR-015: DooD workspace bind mount for Compose file bind-mount resolution
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The deploy workflows (`.gitea/workflows/nightly.yml`, `release.yml`) run job steps inside Docker containers via Docker-out-of-Docker (DooD): the Gitea runner mounts the host Docker socket, and act_runner spawns sibling containers for each job.
+
+When a job step calls `docker compose -f docker-compose.observability.yml up`, Docker Compose resolves relative bind-mount sources against `$(pwd)` inside the job container and passes the resulting absolute paths to the **host** daemon. For example, `./infra/observability/prometheus/prometheus.yml` becomes `/some/path/infra/observability/prometheus/prometheus.yml`, and the host daemon tries to bind-mount that path from the **host filesystem**.
+
+In the default DooD setup (`runner-config.yaml` with only `valid_volumes: ["/var/run/docker.sock"]`), job container workspaces live in the act_runner overlay2 layer. The host has no corresponding directory at the job container's `$(pwd)` path, so the daemon auto-creates an empty directory in its place. The container then fails to start because the mount target was expected to be a file, not a directory:
+
+```
+error mounting "…/prometheus/prometheus.yml" to rootfs at "/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml": not a directory
+```
+
+This affected all five config file bind mounts in `docker-compose.observability.yml`.
+
+## Decision
+
+Configure act_runner to store job workspaces on a real host path (`/srv/gitea-workspace`) and mount that path into both the runner container and every job container at the **same absolute path**. The identity of the host path and container path is the key constraint: Compose resolves to an absolute path and hands it to the host daemon, which looks for that exact path on the host filesystem.
+
+**runner-config.yaml changes:**
+
+```yaml
+container:
+  workdir_parent: /srv/gitea-workspace
+  valid_volumes:
+    - "/var/run/docker.sock"
+    - "/srv/gitea-workspace"
+  options: "-v /srv/gitea-workspace:/srv/gitea-workspace"
+```
+
+**Runner compose.yaml change** (host side — not in this repo):
+
+```yaml
+runner:
+  volumes:
+    - /srv/gitea-workspace:/srv/gitea-workspace
+```
+
+With this in place, `$(pwd)` inside a job container resolves to `/srv/gitea-workspace/<owner>/<repo>/`, which is a real directory on the host. Compose-managed bind mounts from that directory work without any additional steps.
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+| Alternative | Why rejected |
+|---|---|
+| **overlay2 `MergedDir` sync via privileged nsenter** (the previous approach, see PR #599 v1) | Required `--privileged --pid=host` (effective root on the host) plus fragile overlay2 driver assumption. Introduced stale-file risk on the host and a second stable path (`/srv/familienarchiv-*/obs-configs`) to maintain separately from the source tree. Replaced by this ADR. |
+| **Build configs into a dedicated Docker image** (pattern used for MinIO bootstrap, see `infra/minio/Dockerfile`) | Viable for static files that change infrequently. Requires a build step and an image rebuild every time a config changes. Appropriate for bootstrap scripts; too heavy for frequently-tuned observability configs. |
+| **Add workspace directory to runner-config `valid_volumes` only** (without `workdir_parent`) | `valid_volumes` whitelists paths that workflow steps may reference, but does not change where act_runner stores workspaces. Without `workdir_parent`, the workspace would still be in overlay2 and the bind-mount resolution problem would remain. |
+| **Map workspace under a different host path than container path** (e.g. host `/srv/workspace`, container `/workspace`) | Compose resolves to the container-internal path (e.g. `/workspace/…`) and passes that to the host daemon. The host daemon interprets the source as a host path. If host `/workspace` does not exist, the daemon creates an empty directory — the original bug. The paths must be identical. |
+
+## Consequences
+
+- `/srv/gitea-workspace` must exist on the VPS before the runner starts. The directory was created as part of this change; it is not created automatically.
+- The runner container's `compose.yaml` (maintained outside this repo at `~/docker/gitea/compose.yaml` on the VPS) must include the `- /srv/gitea-workspace:/srv/gitea-workspace` volume line. This is an out-of-band operational dependency; the prerequisite is documented in `runner-config.yaml`.
+- `workdir_parent` applies to all jobs on this runner. Any future workflow that calls `docker compose` with relative bind mounts benefits automatically without further configuration.
+- Job workspaces persist across runs under `/srv/gitea-workspace`. act_runner manages per-run subdirectory cleanup. Orphaned directories from interrupted runs should be cleaned up manually if disk space becomes a concern.
+- Workflows that previously relied on `OBS_CONFIG_DIR` env var or the `obs-configs` stable path on the host no longer need those. Both were removed in this PR.
+- This pattern does **not** apply to the `nsenter`-based Caddy reload step (ADR-012), which manages a host systemd service — a different problem class with no bind-mount equivalent.

+## Status

+## Context
+
+Issue #601 established that the observability stack must survive Gitea CI workspace wipes between nightly runs. When the nightly job completes, act_runner deletes the job workspace. Any Docker container that bind-mounts a config file from a workspace path (`/srv/gitea-workspace/…/infra/observability/prometheus/prometheus.yml`) then references a path that no longer exists on the host. On the next nightly run, Docker Compose either auto-creates an empty directory in its place (causing the container to fail to start because a file mount receives a directory) or finds a stale file from a previous run if the workspace happened to land at the same path.
+
+ADR-015 solved the workspace bind-mount resolution problem: job workspaces are stored at `/srv/gitea-workspace` so `$(pwd)` inside the job container maps to a real host path. But it did not address persistence: the workspace is still wiped after the job, so bind mounts from workspace-relative paths remain fragile across runs.
+
+### Decision drivers
+
+1. Bind-mount sources must point to a host path that persists indefinitely, not to a path that disappears after each CI run.
+2. Config files must reflect the committed state of the repo after every nightly run (no manual sync steps).
+3. Secrets must not be written to the workspace or to any path managed by CI; they must survive independently of deployments.
+4. The solution must not introduce new infrastructure dependencies (no SSH access from CI, no external registry, no additional server-side daemon).
+
+### Alternatives considered
+
+**A: Server-pull model** — a systemd timer or cron job on the server does `git pull` from the repo into `/opt/familienarchiv/` and then runs `docker compose up`. Rejected because: (1) requires git credentials on the server and a registered deploy key, (2) adds a second deployment mechanism that diverges from the CI-push model used for the main app stack, (3) timing coupling — the server pull must complete before CI's health checks run, requiring polling or a webhook.
+
+**B: Separate directory (e.g. `/opt/obs/`)** — keeps obs configs isolated from the app stack. Rejected because: (1) the main app compose files are already in `/opt/familienarchiv/` (managed the same way), and (2) GlitchTip shares the `archive-db` PostgreSQL instance and `archiv-net` Docker network — it is architecturally part of the same deployment unit, not a separate one. Co-location reflects the actual coupling.
+
+**C: Named Docker configs (Swarm)** — Docker Swarm supports first-class config objects that persist in the cluster. Rejected because the project does not use Swarm and introducing it solely for config persistence is a disproportionate dependency.
+
+## Decision
+
+The observability stack is co-located with the main application deployment at `/opt/familienarchiv/`:
+
+- `docker-compose.observability.yml` → `/opt/familienarchiv/docker-compose.observability.yml`
+- `infra/observability/` → `/opt/familienarchiv/infra/observability/`
+
+Both the nightly CI job (`nightly.yml`) and the release job (`release.yml`) copy these files from the workspace checkout to `/opt/familienarchiv/` using `cp -r` on every run (CI-push model). Containers always read config from the permanent location; a workspace wipe has no effect on running containers.
+
+Environment variables follow a two-source model:
+
+- `infra/observability/obs.env` (git-tracked, non-secret): all non-sensitive config — host ports, public URLs (`GLITCHTIP_DOMAIN`, `GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL`), and the default `POSTGRES_HOST`. Changes go through PR review. No credentials.
+- `/opt/familienarchiv/obs-secrets.env` (CI-written, per-deploy): passwords and secret keys only (`GRAFANA_ADMIN_PASSWORD`, `GLITCHTIP_SECRET_KEY`, `POSTGRES_USER`, `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`, `POSTGRES_HOST`), injected fresh from Gitea secrets on every nightly and release deploy. Gitea is the single source of truth for secrets — rotating a secret takes effect on the next deploy without manual server action.
+
+Both files are passed explicitly via `--env-file` to every obs compose command (config dry-run and `up`). There is no implicit auto-read `.env`. The required key inventory is documented in `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md §4`.
+
+The CI runner mounts `/opt/familienarchiv` as a bind mount into job containers (see `runner-config.yaml`). This requires a one-time `mkdir -p /opt/familienarchiv/infra` on the server and a runner restart after updating `runner-config.yaml` (see ADR-015 and `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md §3.1`).
+
+## Consequences
+
+**Positive:**
+- Bind-mount sources survive workspace wipes by definition — they are on a persistent host path.
+- Config is always in sync with the repo after each nightly run.
+- No new infrastructure dependencies; the CI-push model mirrors how the main app stack is deployed.
+- Secret rotation requires no manual server action — Gitea secrets are the authoritative store; `obs-secrets.env` is rewritten from scratch on every deploy so a secret change takes effect on the next nightly or release run.
+
+**Negative:**
+- `cp -r` does not remove deleted files; a config file removed from the repo persists in `/opt/familienarchiv/infra/observability/` until manually deleted. Acceptable for this project's change frequency. A `rsync -a --delete` would give a clean mirror if this becomes a problem.
+- Mounting `/opt/familienarchiv/` into CI job containers expands the blast radius of a compromised workflow step — a malicious step could overwrite app compose files and Caddy config. Acceptable because the runner is single-tenant (trusted code only). See `runner-config.yaml` security comment.
+- Runner must be restarted (`systemctl restart gitea-runner`) after any change to `runner-config.yaml` for the new mount to take effect.

+# ADR-017: Spring Boot 4.0 management port shares the main security filter chain
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+The Familienarchiv backend runs Spring Boot Actuator on a dedicated management port (8081) so that Caddy never proxies `/actuator/*` requests and Prometheus can reach the scrape endpoint directly inside `archiv-net`.
+
+In earlier Spring Boot versions (< 4.0), the management server ran in an isolated child application context whose security was governed independently by `ManagementWebSecurityAutoConfiguration`. The main app's `SecurityConfig` filter chain (port 8080) never intercepted requests arriving on port 8081.
+
+In Spring Boot 4.0 with Jetty, this isolation was removed. The management server now traverses the **same** Spring Security `FilterChainProxy` as the main application. Concretely:
+
+- Any `SecurityFilterChain` bean in the application context is evaluated for requests arriving on the management port.
+- There is no longer a separate "management security" child context.
+
+This was discovered when Prometheus began receiving HTTP 401 responses from `/actuator/prometheus` despite the endpoint being exposed and the `micrometer-registry-prometheus` dependency being present. Prometheus rejected these responses with `received unsupported Content-Type "text/html"` because the main filter chain's form-login `DelegatingAuthenticationEntryPoint` was redirecting unauthenticated requests to `/login` (302 → HTML).
+
+A secondary issue: Spring Boot 4.0 no longer auto-enables Prometheus metrics export — `management.prometheus.metrics.export.enabled` must be set explicitly, and the Prometheus scrape endpoint requires `spring-boot-starter-micrometer-metrics` (a new starter that was split out in Spring Boot 4.0).
+
+## Decision
+
+1. **Dedicated management `SecurityFilterChain`** scoped to `/actuator/**` at `@Order(1)` (highest precedence). This chain:
+   - `permitAll()` for `/actuator/health` and `/actuator/prometheus` — required for Docker health checks and unauthenticated Prometheus scraping.
+   - `authenticated()` for all other actuator endpoints — blocks `/actuator/metrics`, `/actuator/info`, etc. without credentials.
+   - Uses an explicit `401` entry point (not form-login redirect) so that API clients — including Prometheus — receive a machine-readable status code rather than an HTML redirect.
+   - No CSRF, no form login.
+
+2. **Belt-and-suspenders `permitAll()` in the main `SecurityFilterChain`** for `/actuator/health` and `/actuator/prometheus`, in case a future configuration change causes these paths to escape the management chain's `securityMatcher`.
+
+3. **Network isolation as the outer defense boundary.** Port 8081 is not published in `docker-compose.yml` and is not routed through Caddy. Only services inside `archiv-net` (primarily Prometheus and the Docker health checker) can reach the management port.
+
+## Alternatives rejected
+
+- **Exclude `ManagementWebSecurityAutoConfiguration`:** This auto-configuration no longer exists in Spring Boot 4.0. Exclusion is not applicable.
+- **Keep `SecurityConfig` as the sole filter chain without `@Order(1)` management chain:** The main chain's form-login `DelegatingAuthenticationEntryPoint` redirects browser-like clients to `/login` (302). Prometheus and automated health check clients cannot follow this redirect, so the endpoint would be unreachable without a dedicated chain that returns plain 401 or 200.
+- **Per-endpoint `@Order(1)` filter chain using `EndpointRequest.toAnyEndpoint()`:** The `spring-boot-security` artifact that provides `EndpointRequest` is not a transitive dependency of `spring-boot-starter-actuator` in Spring Boot 4.0. Using a path-based `securityMatcher("/actuator/**")` achieves the same scoping without an extra dependency.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- All actuator endpoints on port 8081 that are not explicitly `permitAll()`-ed require HTTP Basic credentials. Without valid credentials, the response is 401 (not a redirect).
+- Adding a new actuator endpoint to `management.endpoints.web.exposure.include` implicitly protects it via `anyRequest().authenticated()` in the management chain — no additional `permitAll()` needed unless intentional.
+- A regression test (`ActuatorPrometheusIT`) verifies:
+  - `/actuator/prometheus` returns 200 without credentials.
+  - `/actuator/metrics` returns 401 without credentials.
+  - Prometheus metric names are present in the response body.
+- If port 8081 is ever accidentally published in `docker-compose.yml`, actuator endpoints other than health and prometheus are still protected by HTTP Basic. This reduces (but does not eliminate) the risk of inadvertent exposure.

+# ADR-018: GlitchTip frontend error tracking via @sentry/sveltekit
+
+**Date:** 2026-05-17  
+**Status:** Accepted  
+**Deciders:** Marcel Raddatz
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The Familienarchiv had no client-side error reporting. When a user encountered a crash
+or unhandled error in the SvelteKit frontend, there was no way for the operator to
+observe it — errors were invisible until a user manually reported them. A GlitchTip
+instance (self-hosted, Sentry-compatible) was already running as part of the
+observability stack (`docker-compose.observability.yml`). The backend already reported
+server-side errors to it.
+
+We needed a way to:
+1. Capture frontend errors automatically and route them to GlitchTip.
+2. Give users a visible error identifier they can include in a support message.
+3. Do this without leaking personally identifiable information (PII) from the family
+   archive — documents contain personal histories, names, and relationships.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+Use `@sentry/sveltekit` (the official Sentry SDK for SvelteKit) to:
+
+- Initialise with `sendDefaultPii: false` on both `hooks.server.ts` and `hooks.client.ts`.
+- Pass a callback to `Sentry.handleErrorWithSentry()` that returns
+  `{ message, errorId }` where `errorId` is `Sentry.lastEventId()` when Sentry
+  captured the event, or a fresh `crypto.randomUUID()` as fallback.
+- Display the `errorId` on the `+error.svelte` page so users can include it in a
+  report to the operator.
+
+The SDK is initialised with `enabled: !!import.meta.env.VITE_SENTRY_DSN` so that
+development and CI builds without a DSN configured do not send any events.
+
+`VITE_SENTRY_DSN` is a write-only ingest key — it can POST events to GlitchTip but
+cannot read them. It is safe to include in the client bundle per the Sentry security
+model; it does not require rotation like a password.
+
+---
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**Sentry SaaS** — rejected. The archive contains private family documents and personal
+history. Sending error events with stack traces to a US-hosted third party is
+inconsistent with the project's data-minimisation posture. Self-hosted GlitchTip on
+the same Hetzner VPS keeps all data on infrastructure the operator controls.
+
+**Custom error logging endpoint** — rejected. The @sentry/sveltekit SDK handles
+SvelteKit's hook lifecycle, source-map upload, and event grouping automatically.
+Reimplementing this would cost significant engineering time for no benefit.
+
+**Log-only (no user-visible errorId)** — rejected. Without a visible error ID, users
+can only describe what happened in natural language, making it hard to correlate a
+report with a specific GlitchTip event. The `errorId` closes this gap at negligible UI
+cost.
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+**Positive:**
+- Frontend errors are now observable without requiring user reports.
+- Users can provide an `errorId` that maps directly to a GlitchTip event.
+- `sendDefaultPii: false` ensures names, IPs, and cookie values are not included in
+  captured events.
+- `tracesSampleRate: 0.1` limits trace volume to 10% of transactions, keeping
+  GlitchTip load low on the shared VPS.
+
+**Negative / trade-offs:**
+- The `@sentry/sveltekit` SDK is now a production dependency. SDK updates must be
+  reviewed for changes to the default PII scrubbing behaviour.
+- The `handleError` callback in both hooks returns a hardcoded English message
+  (`'An unexpected error occurred'`). This bypasses Paraglide i18n — the error page
+  will always show English text when the hooks are active, regardless of the user's
+  locale. This is acceptable because: (a) the error page is a last-resort fallback
+  not part of normal UX, (b) the `errorId` is the actionable information, not the
+  message text. A future ADR may address this if internationalised error messages
+  become a requirement.
+- `Sentry.lastEventId()` returns `undefined` when Sentry did not capture the event
+  (e.g. DSN not configured). The `crypto.randomUUID()` fallback guarantees an `errorId`
+  is always present, but that UUID will not appear in GlitchTip.

+# ADR-019 — Container hardening baseline: non-root user + read-only filesystem
+
+**Status:** Accepted  
+**Date:** 2026-05-17  
+**PR:** #611
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The OCR service ran as `root` inside its container by default. This violated CIS Docker Benchmark §4.1 and CIS §4.6, and meant that any exploit in the OCR pipeline (untrusted PDF content, model deserialization, ZIP handling) could write to or execute anything inside the container without restriction.
+
+The following risks were present before this baseline:
+
+- A path-traversal in the ZIP-based training endpoint could overwrite arbitrary paths on the container filesystem (including Python source files and model files).
+- A compromised dependency running at startup could persist itself to the image layers or model volumes.
+- Misconfigured model downloads could overwrite `/etc/passwd` or similar via path-traversal — possible because root can write everywhere.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+All containers in this project that have no operational need for elevated privileges **must** apply the following hardening baseline:
+
+### 1. Non-root user
+
+Create a dedicated user with a fixed UID and no login shell:
+
+```dockerfile
+RUN useradd --no-create-home --shell /usr/sbin/nologin --uid 1000 <service>
+```
+
+Set `HOME` explicitly to a path owned by this user. Do not rely on `~` expansion for any path resolution in application code.
+
+### 2. Read-only container filesystem
+
+```yaml
+read_only: true
+```
+
+All paths the application writes to at runtime must be explicitly declared as either a named volume or a `tmpfs` mount. This turns any unexpected write attempt into an immediate, visible `PermissionError` rather than a silent success.
+
+### 3. Per-path write carve-outs
+
+Declare only the paths that are actually written at runtime:
+
+```yaml
+volumes:
+  - <service>_models:/app/models   # persistent model storage
+  - <service>_cache:/app/cache     # HuggingFace / ketos download cache
+tmpfs:
+  - /tmp:size=512m                 # transient scratch space (ZIP extraction etc.)
+```
+
+Do not mount the home directory as a volume unless necessary — use `XDG_CACHE_HOME` and `TORCH_HOME` env vars to redirect library cache writes to the declared writable paths instead.
+
+### 4. Dropped capabilities and privilege escalation prevention
+
+```yaml
+cap_drop: [ALL]
+security_opt:
+  - no-new-privileges:true
+```
+
+A Python/FastAPI service on port 8000+ requires no Linux capabilities. Dropping all and blocking privilege escalation via setuid prevents any capability regain even if a dependency contains a SUID binary.
+
+### 5. Startup root canary
+
+Log a warning during startup if the process is running as root. This catches misconfiguration (e.g., `USER` directive accidentally removed in a future Dockerfile edit) before it becomes a silent vulnerability:
+
+```python
+if os.getuid() == 0:
+    logger.warning("Running as root — CIS Docker §4.1 violation")
+```
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+**Positive:**
+- Any exploit that achieves code execution inside the container is confined: it cannot write outside the declared volumes, cannot acquire new capabilities, and cannot persist to the image filesystem.
+- `PermissionError` on startup is an explicit, diagnosable failure rather than a silent privilege misuse.
+- The startup canary catches accidental regressions in the non-root setup.
+
+**Negative / operational cost:**
+- Every new feature that writes to a new path (e.g., a new model cache directory, a new scratch path) must add a volume or tmpfs mount. The `read_only: true` flag makes this a hard constraint, not a suggestion.
+- Library dependencies that write to `HOME` without respecting `XDG_CACHE_HOME` must be identified and redirected explicitly (see `TORCH_HOME`, `XDG_CACHE_HOME`, `HF_HOME` in `docker-compose.yml`).
+- Existing named volumes written by root (pre-baseline) must be dropped and recreated before upgrading. See [DEPLOYMENT.md §8](../DEPLOYMENT.md#8-upgrade-notes).
+
+---
+
+## Applicability
+
+This baseline applies to the OCR service (PR #611). It should be applied to any new container added to the project unless there is a documented, specific operational reason a capability or writable filesystem is required.

+# ADR-020 — Stateful Authentication via Spring Session JDBC
+
+**Date:** 2026-05-17
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Issue:** #523
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+PR #521 (closing #520) introduced `AuthTokenCookieFilter` to unblock a production deploy.
+The filter promotes an `auth_token` cookie — which contains the full HTTP Basic credential
+(`Basic <base64(email:password)>`) — to an `Authorization` header so browser-direct `/api/*`
+calls authenticate correctly behind Caddy.
+
+This model has three concrete problems:
+
+1. **Cookie = credential.** A stolen `auth_token` cookie leaks the user's password in
+   base64-encoded plaintext. No decode step is needed; the cookie value is directly usable
+   as a credential forever.
+2. **No server-side revocation.** Logout deletes the local cookie but the credential
+   remains valid until the 24 h `Max-Age` elapses. An attacker who copied the cookie before
+   logout retains access.
+3. **No audit signal.** There is no server-side record of login or logout events. Observability
+   and compliance tooling cannot reconstruct "who was logged in when".
+
+Additionally, Nora flagged that `url.protocol === 'https:'` in `login/+page.server.ts` is
+incorrect behind Caddy: SvelteKit sees `http`, so `Secure=false` was set on the credential
+cookie in production, transmitting it in cleartext from Caddy to the browser on any network
+path without TLS.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+Replace the `auth_token` / `AuthTokenCookieFilter` model with **Spring Session JDBC**:
+
+- A `POST /api/auth/login` endpoint in a new `auth` package authenticates with `email +
+  password`, creates a server-side session record in PostgreSQL, and returns the `AppUser`
+  JSON in the response body.
+- The response sets an **opaque** `fa_session` cookie (`HttpOnly`, `SameSite=Strict`,
+  `Secure` in non-dev profiles, `Max-Age=28800` — 8 h idle timeout) that contains only the
+  session ID, never a credential.
+- A `POST /api/auth/logout` endpoint invalidates the session record immediately. Subsequent
+  requests carrying the same cookie return 401.
+- `AuthTokenCookieFilter` is deleted in the same PR. No transitional coexistence period.
+- Cookie name `fa_session` (not the default `SESSION`) minimises framework fingerprinting.
+
+Session storage uses the canonical `spring_session` / `spring_session_attributes` tables,
+re-introduced via `V67__recreate_spring_session_tables.sql` (dropped by V2 when the
+dependency was previously removed as unused).
+
+**Idle timeout:** 8 h (`MaxInactiveIntervalInSeconds = 28800`). No 24 h absolute cap is
+implemented in Phase 1 — the 8 h idle bound contains the risk to one workday. A weekend-long
+active session is acceptable given the family-archive threat model. The absolute cap and
+additional revocation paths (password-change, admin force-logout) land in Phase 2 (#524).
+
+---
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+### Stay on Basic cookie + add a server-side revocation table
+
+Keeps the credential-in-cookie problem. Implementing a revocation table would re-invent
+Spring Session badly — we'd write bespoke session storage that already exists and is
+well-tested upstream.
+
+### JWT (stateless)
+
+Opaque revocation is simpler than JWT revocation (token introspection or short-lived tokens
++ refresh). The cluster is single-node; session affinity is not a constraint. Stateless tokens
+buy complexity without benefit here. JWKS infrastructure and refresh-token rotation are
+unnecessary for a family archive with < 50 concurrent users.
+
+### Keep `auth_token` cookie but add `AuthTokenCookieFilter` improvements
+
+The root problem is that the cookie contains the credential. No amount of filter hardening
+fixes that. Nora's P1 flag stands until the credential leaves the cookie.
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+- **One breaking deploy.** All existing sessions (the `auth_token` cookies) become inert
+  on the next request after the deploy. The SvelteKit `handleAuth` hook redirects to
+  `/login?reason=expired`; a banner renders. Users re-login. No data loss.
+- **~2 KB per active session** in PostgreSQL (`spring_session_attributes` stores the
+  serialised `SecurityContext`). With < 50 family members, this is immaterial.
+- **Session cleanup task** runs on the default Spring Session JDBC schedule (every 10 min).
+  No custom job needed.
+- **Caddy / infrastructure unchanged.** `forward-headers-strategy: native` already ensures
+  `Secure` cookies work correctly behind the reverse proxy.
+- **Dev profile:** `application-dev.yaml` sets `secure: false` on the session cookie so
+  local HTTP dev (port 5173 → 8080) works without TLS.

docs/infrastructure/ci-gitea.md

@@ -19,6 +19,39 @@ Both containers live in the `gitea_gitea` Docker network on the VPS. The runner
 
 The `gitea-runner` container mounts the host Docker socket (`/var/run/docker.sock`). When a workflow job runs, act_runner spawns a **sibling container** for each job. That job container also gets the Docker socket mounted (via `valid_volumes` in `runner-config.yaml`), enabling `docker compose` calls in workflow steps.
 
+### Workspace bind-mount setup (DooD path resolution)
+
+When a workflow step calls `docker compose up` with relative bind-mount sources (e.g. `./infra/observability/prometheus/prometheus.yml`), Compose resolves them against `$(pwd)` inside the job container and passes the resulting **absolute path** to the host Docker daemon. The host daemon then tries to bind-mount that path from the **host filesystem**.
+
+In the default DooD setup the job container's workspace lives in the act_runner overlay2 layer — the host has no directory at that path, auto-creates an empty one, and the container fails with:
+
+```
+error mounting "…/prometheus/prometheus.yml" to rootfs at "/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml": not a directory
+```
+
+**Solution (ADR-015):** store job workspaces on a real host path and mount it at the **same absolute path** inside the runner and every job container. `runner-config.yaml` configures this via `workdir_parent`, `valid_volumes`, and `options`.
+
+**One-time host setup** (required on any fresh VPS):
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p /srv/gitea-workspace
+# Then add to the runner service in ~/docker/gitea/compose.yaml:
+#   volumes:
+#     - /srv/gitea-workspace:/srv/gitea-workspace
+# Restart the runner container for the change to take effect.
+```
+
+The path `/srv/gitea-workspace` is the canonical workspace root. It must be identical on the host and inside job containers — if the paths differ, Compose still resolves to the container-internal path, which the host daemon cannot find (the original bug).
+
+**Disk management:** act_runner cleans per-run subdirectories on completion. Orphaned directories from interrupted runs accumulate under `/srv/gitea-workspace` and should be pruned manually if disk space becomes a concern:
+
+```bash
+# List workspace directories older than 7 days
+find /srv/gitea-workspace -mindepth 3 -maxdepth 3 -type d -mtime +7
+```
+
+---
+
 ### Running host-level commands from CI (nsenter pattern)
 
 Job containers are unprivileged and do not share the host's PID/mount/network namespaces. Commands like `systemctl` that target the host daemon are therefore unavailable by default. When a workflow step needs to manage a host service (e.g. `systemctl reload caddy`), it uses the Docker socket to spin up a **privileged sibling container** in the host PID namespace:
@@ -108,6 +141,33 @@ nsenter: failed to execute /bin/systemctl: No such file or directory
 
 The first error means the Docker socket is not mounted into the job container — check `valid_volumes` in `/root/docker/gitea/runner-config.yaml` on the VPS. The second means the Alpine image is running but cannot enter the host mount namespace; verify `--privileged` and `--pid=host` are both present in the workflow step.
 
+**Failure mode 4 — workspace bind-mount not configured (observability stack or any compose-with-file-mounts job)**
+
+Symptom in CI log:
+```
+Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path "…/prometheus/prometheus.yml": mkdir …: not a directory
+```
+
+Or the service starts but immediately crashes because a config file was mounted as an empty directory.
+
+Cause: `/srv/gitea-workspace` does not exist on the host, or the runner container's `compose.yaml` is missing the `- /srv/gitea-workspace:/srv/gitea-workspace` volume line.
+
+Diagnosis:
+```bash
+ssh root@<vps>
+ls -la /srv/gitea-workspace          # must exist and be a directory
+docker inspect gitea-runner | grep -A5 Mounts   # must show /srv/gitea-workspace
+```
+
+Recovery:
+```bash
+mkdir -p /srv/gitea-workspace
+# Add volume line to runner compose.yaml, then:
+docker compose -f ~/docker/gitea/compose.yaml up -d gitea-runner
+```
+
+See `docs/DEPLOYMENT.md §3.1` and ADR-015 for the full setup rationale.
