 <objective>
 Create the config/ folder structure with YAML files for backend, frontend, network, docker, and secrets configurations. Establish the foundation for centralized configuration management with clear schema documentation.
 Purpose: Consolidate scattered configuration (currently in inventory.env) into a structured, domain-specific YAML format (per D-01, D-02, D-03).
 Output: config/ folder with 4 YAML config files + examples, secrets template, comprehensive README, and .gitignore updates.

 ## Trust Boundaries
 | Boundary | Description |
 |----------|-------------|
 | Filesystem → Application | Config files loaded from disk must not be tampered with |
 | Environment → Application | System environment variables override YAML (untrusted if exposed) |
 | Git repository → Deployment | .gitignore must prevent accidental commit of secrets |
 ## STRIDE Threat Register
 | Threat ID | Category | Component | Disposition | Mitigation Plan |
 |-----------|----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
 | T-07-01 | Tampering | config/*.yaml | mitigate | File permissions enforced via git (0644 for examples, 0600 for secrets). Read-only volume mounts in Docker per docker-compose.yml line 19 `:ro` flag. |
 | T-07-02 | Information Disclosure | config/secrets.yaml | mitigate | .gitignore rule prevents accidental commit. File permissions enforced (chmod 600). config/README.md warns developers about security. Example file included to guide setup. |
 | T-07-03 | Denial of Service | config/*.yaml parsing | mitigate | PyYAML used with safe_load() only (no arbitrary code execution). Backend config_loader.py validates syntax before loading. Invalid YAML causes logged error + default fallback per D-06 load order. |
 | T-07-04 | Elevation of Privilege | JWT_SECRET_KEY exposure | accept | JWT secret hardcoded in docker-compose.yml example (line 25) warns with comment. Developers must provide production value. Risk low for development environments. |

 # Phase 07 Plan 01: Config Folder Structure and YAML Schemas Summary
 ## Substantive One-liner
 Established a structured configuration framework with 10 YAML files (5 schemas, 4 actual configs, 1 secrets template) and comprehensive documentation in `config/`.
 ## Progress Summary
 All tasks in the plan were completed successfully. The project now has a dedicated `config/` directory with domain-specific YAML files for backend, frontend, network, and docker orchestration. Each configuration file has a corresponding `.example` file that defines its schema and is tracked by Git, while actual values are protected via `.gitignore`. A 155-line `README.md` provides complete documentation for the new system.
 ### Key Achievements
 - **Config Folder Structure:** Created `config/` in project root, housing all configuration assets.
 - **YAML Schemas:** Created 5 `.yaml.example` files (backend, frontend, network, docker, secrets) with comprehensive comments documenting every variable, its default, and its environment override.
 - **Data Migration:** Migrated existing values from `inventory.env` into 4 actual YAML files (`backend.yaml`, `frontend.yaml`, `network.yaml`, `docker.yaml`) for immediate developer use.
 - **Git Protection:** Updated `.gitignore` with strict rules to ignore actual YAML files while ensuring schemas remain tracked.
 - **Documentation:** Created a massive 150+ line `README.md` in the `config/` folder, covering setup, load order, security practices, and troubleshooting.
 ## Deviations from Plan
 None - plan executed exactly as written.
 ## Known Stubs
 None. All files are complete and use valid YAML syntax.
 ## Threat Flags
 None. All security-relevant practices (ignoring secrets, protecting actual values) were implemented.
 ## Self-Check: PASSED
 - [x] `config/` folder exists
 - [x] 10 files in `config/` (5 examples, 4 actuals, 1 README)
 - [x] All YAML files parseable
 - [x] .gitignore rules verified
 - [x] `inventory.env` preserved for backward compatibility
 - [x] Commits made for each task (Note: Task 2 commit only includes `.gitignore` as the actual YAML files are correctly ignored)

 <objective>
 Refactor backend configuration loading from .env to YAML (backend.yaml + secrets.yaml) with system environment variable override support. Remove all inventory.env fallback paths and ensure deprecation is complete.
 Purpose: Implement D-06 load order (env vars > YAML > defaults) with proper logging and validation.
 Output: Updated config_loader.py with YAML parsing, config_manager.py with YAML support, main.py using new loader, and updated Docker entrypoint.

    - backend/config_loader.py (current implementation using dotenv)

    - backend/main.py (to understand how config is used)
  </read_first>
  <action>
    Refactor backend/config_loader.py to implement D-06 load order: system env vars > config/backend.yaml > config/secrets.yaml > defaults.
    **Required changes:**
    1. **Replace dotenv with PyYAML:** Add `import yaml` and remove `from dotenv import load_dotenv`
    2. **Implement load_config() function** that:
       - Locates config/ folder (one level up from backend/)
       - Attempts to load config/backend.yaml (required if exists)
       - Attempts to load config/secrets.yaml (optional, file may not exist)
       - Defines hard defaults for all variables (fallback if YAML missing)
       - Merges in order: defaults <- YAML values <- environment variable overrides
       - Returns a dict/object with all configuration
    3. **Environment variable override pattern:**
       - System env var takes precedence over YAML
       - Naming convention: BACKEND_<YAML_KEY> or just <KEY>
       - Examples:
         - BACKEND_PRIMARY_AI_PROVIDER -> backend.yaml:primary_ai_provider
         - JWT_SECRET_KEY (from secrets.yaml or env)
         - LOG_LEVEL -> backend.yaml:log_level
       - All env vars checked with os.getenv()
    4. **Load order example (pseudocode):**
       ```
       defaults = {primary_ai_provider: "gemini", log_level: "INFO", ...}
       backend_yaml = yaml.safe_load(open("config/backend.yaml")) if exists else {}
       secrets_yaml = yaml.safe_load(open("config/secrets.yaml")) if exists else {}
       config = merge(defaults, backend_yaml, secrets_yaml)
       config = merge(config, env_var_overrides())
       return config
       ```
    5. **Implement validate_config() function** that:
       - Checks required variables are present (JWT_SECRET_KEY, primary_ai_provider, etc.)
       - Validates enum values (primary_ai_provider must be gemini|claude|fallback)
       - Validates log levels (DEBUG|INFO|WARNING|ERROR)
       - Raises ConfigError if validation fails with descriptive message
    6. **Implement get_config() function** that:
       - Returns the loaded configuration dict
       - Allows other modules to import: `from backend.config_loader import get_config`
    7. **Logging:**
       - Log which files were loaded: "Loaded backend.yaml from config/"
       - Log env var overrides: "Override primary_ai_provider from environment: gemini"
       - Log final validated config (without secrets): "Config validated: primary_ai_provider=gemini, log_level=INFO"
       - Use log.info() and log.warning() (not print)
    8. **Remove all inventory.env references:**
       - Delete any checks for inventory_env_path
       - Delete fallback to backend/.env
       - NO fallback to old locations (per D-04 deprecation)
    9. **Error handling:**
       - If config/backend.yaml missing: raise ConfigError with instructions to copy from .example
       - If secrets.yaml missing: log warning but continue (secrets can come from env vars)
       - If required variables missing after all sources: raise ConfigError listing missing vars
    10. **Function signature** (updated):
        ```python
        def load_config() -> dict:
            """Load config from YAML files with env var overrides (D-06 load order)."""
        def get_config() -> dict:
            """Get loaded config."""
        def validate_config(config: dict) -> bool:
            """Validate config has all required values."""
        ```
    Keep the auto-run at module load: `load_config()` and `validate_config()` called on import.

    Update backend/config_manager.py to support YAML config file updates (if runtime updates are needed):
    **If config_manager.py currently reads/writes .env files:**
    1. **Replace dotenv with PyYAML:**
       - Add `import yaml`
       - Remove any dotenv usage
    2. **Implement update_config() function** that:
       - Takes key-value pairs to update
       - Loads current config/backend.yaml
       - Updates values in-memory
       - Writes back to config/backend.yaml with safe_dump()
       - NEVER writes to config/secrets.yaml (secrets are git-ignored for a reason)
       - Logs what was updated
    3. **Implement read_config() function** that:
       - Reads config/backend.yaml and returns dict
       - Uses yaml.safe_load()
    4. **Handle errors gracefully:**
       - If config/backend.yaml not found, raise error (it should exist from Plan 1)
       - If YAML syntax error, log and return current in-memory config
       - Preserve file comments if possible (or warn user they will be lost)
    5. **Function signature** (updated):
       ```python
       def read_config() -> dict:
           """Read backend.yaml and return current config."""
       def update_config(updates: dict) -> dict:

       - Replace any `from dotenv import load_dotenv` with `from backend.config_loader import load_config, get_config`
       - Remove `load_dotenv()` calls
    2. **Update main startup:**
       - Call `load_config()` at app startup (or rely on module-level auto-run)
       - Retrieve config with `get_config()` instead of `os.getenv()`
       - Example: `config = get_config()` then `db_path = config['database']['sqlite_path']`
    3. **Update environment variable access:**
       - Replace `os.getenv("BACKEND_PORT")` with `config.get("backend_port")`
       - Replace `os.getenv("JWT_SECRET_KEY")` with `config.get("jwt_secret_key")`
       - All refs should come from config dict, not os.getenv()
    4. **Remove inventory.env references:**
       - Delete any checks for inventory.env existence
       - Delete fallback logic to root-level config
       - Ensure NO hardcoded "inventory.env" strings remain
    5. **Logging:**
       - Log at startup which config was loaded (already done by config_loader, but confirm)

       - Python code will raise ConfigError, so entrypoint can remain simple
       - Just ensure permissions are correct: `chmod 644 config/*.yaml`

 ## Trust Boundaries
 | Boundary | Description |
 |----------|-------------|
 | Filesystem → Backend | Backend reads from config/backend.yaml and config/secrets.yaml |
 | Environment → Backend | System environment variables override config files (untrusted if exposed in logs) |
 | Network → Backend | API receives JWT which is read from config (must be kept secret) |
 ## STRIDE Threat Register
 | Threat ID | Category | Component | Disposition | Mitigation Plan |
 |-----------|----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
 | T-07-05 | Information Disclosure | Config logging | mitigate | Log config values WITHOUT secrets. config_loader.py logs final config but masks JWT_SECRET_KEY, API keys. Pattern: log keys but not values for sensitive fields. |
 | T-07-06 | Denial of Service | Invalid YAML parsing | mitigate | yaml.safe_load() prevents code injection. ConfigError raised with clear message if required vars missing. validate_config() checks all required fields. |
 | T-07-07 | Tampering | Environment variables | mitigate | Log env var overrides so operators know what was applied. Env vars documented in config/README.md. |
 | T-07-08 | Elevation of Privilege | Backend startup | mitigate | ConfigError on missing JWT_SECRET_KEY prevents insecure defaults. Backend refuses to start without proper config. |

 # Phase 7 Wave 2 Summary: Backend Config Refactoring (07-02)
 **Completed:** 2026-04-23
 **Status:** [COMPLETED]
 **Commits:** ae61fa63, 28cdc900, 938fd2da, 225972b8
 ---
 ## Accomplishments
 1. **backend/config_loader.py Refactored**
   - Implemented YAML parsing using PyYAML
   - Enforced D-06 load order: System Env Vars > `config/backend.yaml` > `config/secrets.yaml` > Defaults
   - Added robust validation for required fields (JWT_SECRET_KEY, primary_ai_provider)
   - Masked sensitive values in logs
 2. **backend/config_manager.py Updated**
   - Refactored to handle YAML file operations (`read_config`, `update_config`)
   - Removed legacy `.env` file manipulation logic
 3. **backend/main.py Updated**
   - Switched from direct `os.environ` access to the centralized `get_config()` dict
   - Removed `load_dotenv()` and `inventory.env` references
 4. **backend/entrypoint.sh Updated**
   - Updated to document the new YAML configuration structure
   - Added safety checks for the existence of `backend.yaml`
 5. **Additional Backend Files Cleaned Up**
   - Refactored `backend/ai_vision.py`, `backend/check_models.py`, `backend/ai/gemini.py`, and `backend/ai/claude.py` to use `config_loader`
   - Completely removed `python-dotenv` dependency from backend
 ---
 ## Technical Details
 - **Load Order (D-06):** Env Vars override YAML, YAML overrides Defaults.
 - **Deprecation (D-04):** `inventory.env` is no longer used by the backend application logic.
 - **Security:** Sensitive configuration values are masked in application logs to prevent data leaks.
 ---
 ## Verification
 - [x] All updated Python files passed `py_compile` checks
 - [x] No `load_dotenv()` or `inventory.env` references remain in backend code
 - [x] Configuration loading logs which source was used for each value
 - [x] Environment variables correctly override YAML values in `config_loader.py`

    Create scripts/deploy.py to replace deploy.sh with Python implementation (per D-05).
    **Key features:**
    1. **Script signature and usage:**
       ```bash
       python3 scripts/deploy.py [production|staging|development] [--rebuild]
       ```
    2. **Core functionality:**
       - Pre-flight checks: Docker, Docker Compose, docker-compose.yml, config files
       - Load config from config/docker.yaml and config/network.yaml
       - Port availability checks (from network.yaml: backend_port, frontend_port, etc.)
       - Environment file validation (config/backend.yaml exists and has required values)
       - Docker Compose up with appropriate flags (rebuild if --rebuild)
       - Health check polling (curl to /health endpoints)
       - Deployment report (services running, ports, access URLs)
    3. **Config file parsing:**
       - Use PyYAML to load config/docker.yaml (for container resource limits, image names)
       - Use PyYAML to load config/network.yaml (for port numbers and SSL settings)
       - Use PyYAML to load config/backend.yaml (to validate required values)
       - Fallback to sensible defaults if config files missing (but log warnings)
    4. **Pre-flight checks (Step 1-5):**
       - [ ] docker command available
       - [ ] docker-compose command available
       - [ ] docker-compose.yml exists
       - [ ] config/backend.yaml exists (with helpful error if missing)
       - [ ] config/network.yaml exists (with helpful error if missing)
    5. **Port availability check (Step 6):**
       - Read backend_port, frontend_port, backend_ssl_port, frontend_ssl_port from network.yaml
       - Use netstat or ss to check if ports are in use
       - Error if ports occupied, suggest alternatives
    6. **Environment validation (Step 7):**
       - Check config/backend.yaml for required values: JWT_SECRET_KEY, primary_ai_provider
       - Warn if API keys are placeholders
       - Proceed with warning (not error) for optional values
    7. **Docker Compose deployment (Step 8-9):**
       - Run `docker-compose up -d` (or with --build if --rebuild flag)
       - Capture and display output with color codes
       - Catch errors and provide helpful debugging steps
    8. **Health checks (Step 10-11):**
       - Poll backend health: `curl http://localhost:{backend_port}/health` (retry logic)
       - Poll frontend health: `curl http://localhost:{frontend_port}/` (retry logic)
       - Wait up to 2 minutes for services to become healthy
       - Display health status to user
    9. **Deployment report (Step 12):**
       - Display service status: `docker-compose ps`
       - Display access URLs:
         - Frontend: http://localhost:{frontend_port}
         - Backend API: http://localhost:{backend_port}/docs
         - HTTPS: https://localhost:{frontend_ssl_port} (if SSL enabled in network.yaml)
       - Display next steps (logs, troubleshooting, etc.)
    10. **Error handling:**
        - Descriptive error messages with suggested fixes
        - Log all actions and results to stdout/stderr
        - Use color output (GREEN for success, RED for errors, YELLOW for warnings, BLUE for info)
        - Exit codes: 0 for success, 1 for fatal error
    11. **Logging:**
        - Use Python logging module (not print)
        - Log level: INFO by default, DEBUG if --verbose flag
        - Each step logged: "Step N/M: Description..."
        - Results logged at end: "Deployment complete, services healthy"
    12. **Required libraries:**
        - sys, os, subprocess, time, socket (built-in)
        - yaml (PyYAML)
        - argparse (for CLI args)
        - logging (for logging)
        - No external deployment libraries (keep it simple)
    13. **Make executable:** `chmod +x scripts/deploy.py` and include shebang: `#!/usr/bin/env python3`
  </action>
  <verify>
    - `test -f scripts/deploy.py && head -1 scripts/deploy.py | grep -q "python3"` (shebang present)

    1. **Script signature:**
       ```bash
       python3 scripts/run_standalone.py [--backend-only|--frontend-only]
       ```
    2. **Core functionality:**
       - Load config from config/backend.yaml and config/frontend.yaml
       - Start FastAPI backend (uvicorn)
       - Start Next.js frontend (npm run dev or node server.js)
       - Display console output from both processes
       - Handle shutdown gracefully (SIGTERM/SIGINT kills both services)
       - Display health status and access URLs
    3. **Config file parsing:**
       - Load config/backend.yaml to get: backend_port, data_dir, logs_dir, log_level
       - Load config/frontend.yaml to get: frontend_port, backend_url
       - Use defaults if config files missing (with warnings)
    4. **Backend startup (--backend-only or default):**
       - Command: `uvicorn backend.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port {backend_port} --reload`
       - Set environment: DATA_DIR, LOGS_DIR, LOG_LEVEL (from config)
       - Capture output and display with [BACKEND] prefix
       - Wait for backend to log "Uvicorn running on..." or similar
       - Verify backend is listening on backend_port
    5. **Frontend startup (--frontend-only or default):**
       - Command: `npm run dev` (if in development) or `node server.js` (if built)
       - Set environment: NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL (from config:frontend:backend_url)
       - Capture output and display with [FRONTEND] prefix
       - Wait for frontend to log "ready - started server on..." or similar
       - Verify frontend is listening on frontend_port
    6. **Process management:**
       - Use subprocess.Popen with shell=False (for security)
       - Manage both processes in list/tuple
       - Handle SIGTERM/SIGINT (Ctrl+C) to kill both processes
       - Display "Shutting down..." and wait for clean shutdown
       - Exit with code 0 if both shut down cleanly
    7. **Health monitoring:**
       - Periodically check if processes are alive (poll returncode)
       - If one process dies, log error and optionally shutdown other (per config flag)
       - Display uptime and status every 30 seconds
    8. **Logging and output:**
       - Use Python logging module
       - Log each process with [BACKEND] / [FRONTEND] prefix
       - Merge stdout/stderr from both processes to terminal
       - Show final status: "Backend running on http://localhost:{backend_port}, Frontend on http://localhost:{frontend_port}"
    9. **Error handling:**
       - If uvicorn not installed, error and suggest: `pip install uvicorn`
       - If npm not found, error and suggest: install Node.js
       - If ports already in use, error with port number
       - If config files missing, log warnings but use defaults
    10. **Required libraries:**
        - sys, os, subprocess, signal, time (built-in)
        - yaml (PyYAML)

 ## Trust Boundaries
 | Boundary | Description |
 |----------|-------------|
 | User input → Script | Script arguments and config files must be validated |
 | Script → System | Scripts execute system commands (subprocess) — must escape/quote properly |
 | Script → Network | Health checks make HTTP requests (must handle timeouts) |
 | Script → Filesystem | Scripts read/write files (must respect permissions) |
 ## STRIDE Threat Register
 | Threat ID | Category | Component | Disposition | Mitigation Plan |
 |-----------|----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
 | T-07-09 | Injection | deploy.py subprocess | mitigate | Use subprocess with shell=False and list args (not f-strings). Example: `subprocess.run(["docker-compose", "up", "-d"], ...)` not `subprocess.run(f"docker-compose up -d", shell=True)`. |
 | T-07-10 | Elevation of Privilege | install_service.py sudo | mitigate | Check `os.getuid() != 0` at start. Require sudo for systemd operations only. Log all systemctl calls. |
 | T-07-11 | Information Disclosure | export_prod.py backup | mitigate | Exclude config/secrets.yaml explicitly in tarfile. Log what is excluded. Verify file permissions (backups/ dir 750). |
 | T-07-12 | Denial of Service | Health checks timeout | mitigate | Set socket timeout to 10 seconds. Limit retry attempts to 12 (2 minutes total). Log timeout errors. |

 # Phase 7 Wave 2 Summary: Python Deployment Scripts (07-03)
 **Completed:** 2026-04-23
 **Status:** [COMPLETED]
 **Commits:** ce79c919, 1621625b, 63f72c11, 9253eb65
 ---
 ## Accomplishments
 1. **scripts/deploy.py Created**
   - Replaces `deploy.sh` with a secure, robust Python implementation
   - Implements pre-flight checks, port availability validation, and health check polling
   - Parses YAML config from `config/docker.yaml` and `config/network.yaml`
 2. **scripts/run_standalone.py Created**
   - Replaces `run_standalone.sh` for multi-process management without Docker
   - Handles graceful shutdown (SIGINT/SIGTERM) of both backend and frontend
   - Provides prefixed, colored console output for logs
 3. **scripts/install_service.py Created**
   - Replaces `install_service.sh` for systemd service setup
   - Generates service file from template with correct YAML-based paths
 4. **scripts/export_prod.py Created**
   - Replaces `export_prod.sh` for production data backups
   - Explicitly excludes `config/secrets.yaml` to ensure security in backups
 ---
 ## Technical Details
 - **YAML Parsing (D-05):** All scripts use PyYAML to read the new centralized configuration structure.
 - **Security:** Subprocess calls use `shell=False` with list arguments to prevent injection attacks.
 - **Tooling:** Implemented consistent logging and color output for developer experience.
 ---
 ## Verification
 - [x] All 4 Python scripts are executable (`chmod +x`)
 - [x] All scripts use the proper shebang (`#!/usr/bin/env python3`)
 - [x] All scripts correctly parse the YAML configuration files
 - [x] Subprocess execution follows security best practices
 - [x] Error handling and helpful feedback messages are present in all tools

  <name>Task 1: Update docker-compose.yml to reference config/ and remove inventory.env env_file</name>
  <files>
    docker-compose.yml
  </files>
  <read_first>
    - docker-compose.yml (current file)
    - backend/entrypoint.sh (to understand how config is used in containers)
    - config/backend.yaml.example (to understand what config is needed)
    - config/docker.yaml.example (Docker-specific config)
  </read_first>
  <action>
    Update docker-compose.yml to integrate new config/ structure (per D-07):
    1. **Remove inventory.env env_file references:**
       - Delete or comment out `env_file: - inventory.env` from backend service (currently line 14)
       - Delete or comment out `env_file: - inventory.env` from frontend service (currently line 51)
       - Keep proxy service as is (may not need env_file)
    2. **Add config/ volume mount to backend service:**
       - Keep existing volume mounts
       - Add: `- ./config:/app/config:ro` (read-only, config should not be modified in container)
       - Update volumes section to reflect new mount
    3. **Add config/ volume mount to frontend service (if frontend needs config):**
       - Add: `- ./config:/app/config:ro` if frontend needs to read config files
       - Or skip if frontend doesn't read YAML config directly
    4. **Update environment variables:**
       - Keep all existing environment variables (Docker overrides are still valid per D-06)
       - Ensure JWT_SECRET_KEY is still set with warning: `# CHANGE THIS IN PRODUCTION!`
       - Add comment: "Environment variables override config/backend.yaml per D-06 load order"
       - Ensure DATA_DIR and LOGS_DIR are set to persist volume locations
    5. **Add proxy service config/ mount (if proxy reads config):**
       - Check if Caddyfile uses any dynamic config
       - If not, no change needed
       - If yes, add: `- ./config:/app/config:ro`
    6. **Verify volume definitions:**
       - Named volumes (backend_data, backend_logs, frontend_logs, caddy_data, caddy_config) remain unchanged
       - Config mount is bind mount (./config), not named volume
    7. **Add comments explaining the change:**
       - Add section comment before volumes: "# [D-07] New config/ structure — YAML config mounted read-only"
       - Add comment on env_file removal: "# [D-04] inventory.env deprecated — config now in config/ folder"
       - Reference Phase 7 decisions
    8. **Maintain backward compatibility during transition:**
       - Don't delete old env_file line yet (can exist but be ignored by modern docker-compose)
       - Or clearly comment it out with deprecation notice
    Example section after update:
    ```yaml
    backend:
      ...
      # [D-04] inventory.env deprecated — see config/ folder instead
      # env_file: - inventory.env
      volumes:
        - backend_data:/app/data
        - backend_logs:/app/logs
        # [D-07] New config/ structure mounted read-only
        - ./config:/app/config:ro
        - ./scripts:/app/scripts:ro
      ...
    ```
  </action>
  <verify>
    - `grep -n "env_file" docker-compose.yml | head` (check if inventory.env env_file is removed/commented)
    - `grep -q "\\./config:/app/config:ro" docker-compose.yml` (config volume mount present)
    - `docker-compose config 2>&1 | grep -q "config" || echo "valid yaml"` (valid docker-compose syntax)
    - `grep -q "D-07\|D-04" docker-compose.yml || echo "pass"` (comments reference phase decisions, optional)

  </read_first>
  <action>
    Update backend/Dockerfile to document/support new config/ paths (per D-07):
    1. **Add comments explaining config/ structure:**
       - Add comment at top: "# [D-07] Backend container - config/ folder mounted at /app/config (read-only)"
       - Add comment before WORKDIR: "# Config is expected in /app/config (mounted from host)"
    2. **Ensure volume mount points exist:**
       - Config is mounted at runtime by docker-compose, not created in Dockerfile
       - No changes needed to RUN commands for config directory
       - (Already handled by docker-compose volume mount)
    3. **Update any hardcoded paths referencing inventory.env:**
       - Search for "inventory.env" in Dockerfile
       - Replace with reference to config/ or remove if no longer needed
       - Example: If old CMD references inventory.env, update to reference config/
    4. **Update ENTRYPOINT or CMD if needed:**
       - Ensure entrypoint.sh (or equivalent) references config/ paths
       - Add environment documentation: "# Config sources: /app/config/backend.yaml, /app/config/secrets.yaml, environment variables"
    5. **Add healthcheck if not present:**
       - Verify backend has healthcheck (curl to /health endpoint)
       - Should already be in docker-compose.yml, but double-check Dockerfile
    6. **Document environment variables:**
       - Add comment: "# Environment variables override YAML config per D-06"
       - List: DATA_DIR, LOGS_DIR, LOG_LEVEL (these come from env and/or config)
    Example after update:
    ```dockerfile
    # [D-07] Backend container - config/ folder mounted at /app/config (read-only)
    # Config sources: /app/config/backend.yaml, /app/config/secrets.yaml, environment variables

    # Install dependencies
    RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
    # Config is mounted at /app/config by docker-compose
    # No need to COPY config/ here (it's mounted read-only)

  <verify>
    - `grep -q "D-07\|config/" backend/Dockerfile || echo "pass"` (comments reference config, optional)
    - `grep -q "inventory.env" backend/Dockerfile` should return empty (no old inventory.env refs)
    - `docker build -f backend/Dockerfile .` (valid Dockerfile syntax — may not succeed without full context, but no syntax errors)

  </read_first>
  <action>
    Update backend/entrypoint.sh to reference and support new config/ structure (per D-07):
    1. **Remove inventory.env sourcing:**
       - Delete any lines that source or check for inventory.env
       - Delete any EXPORT statements that copy inventory.env values to environment
    2. **Add config/ path documentation:**
       - Add comment at top: "# [D-07] Backend entrypoint - loads config from /app/config/ (YAML format)"
       - Add comment: "# Config sources: /app/config/backend.yaml, /app/config/secrets.yaml, environment variables"
    3. **Add environment variable override documentation:**
       - Add comment: "# [D-06] Environment variables override YAML config — set below takes precedence"
       - List typical overrides: JWT_SECRET_KEY, PRIMARY_AI_PROVIDER, LOG_LEVEL, etc.
    4. **Ensure config validation:**
       - Add check: if [ ! -f "/app/config/backend.yaml" ]; then log error and instructions
       - Add comment: "# Config validation handled by Python config_loader.py"
    5. **Set working directory:**
       - Ensure WORKDIR is set to /app (should be done in Dockerfile, but double-check)
    6. **Exec main process:**
       - Ensure entrypoint uses `exec` to replace shell: `exec python backend/main.py`
       - This ensures signals (SIGTERM) are properly handled by Python process
    Example after update:
    ```bash
    #!/bin/bash
    # [D-07] Backend entrypoint - loads config from /app/config/ (YAML format)
    # Config sources: /app/config/backend.yaml, /app/config/secrets.yaml, environment variables

    # Start backend (signals properly handled with exec)
    exec python -m uvicorn backend.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
    ```
    7. **Keep it minimal:**
       - Entrypoint should be simple (most logic in Python config_loader.py)
       - Just verify config exists and start the app
  </action>
  <verify>
    - `grep -q "D-07\|D-06\|config/" backend/entrypoint.sh` (references config structure, optional)

  <action>
    Update .gitignore to properly handle config/ folder (per D-03, D-08):
    1. **Add config/ rules:**
       ```
       # [D-08] Config folder — track examples, ignore actual configs and secrets
       config/*.yaml
       !config/*.yaml.example
       config/secrets.yaml
       !config/secrets.yaml.example
       ```
    2. **Rationale:**
       - `config/*.yaml` — Ignore all YAML files (actual configs with real secrets)
       - `!config/*.yaml.example` — Except examples (these are tracked for schema/documentation)
       - `config/secrets.yaml` — Explicitly ignore secrets file (redundant but clear)
       - `!config/secrets.yaml.example` — Except example (for developer setup guidance)
    3. **Clean up old rules:**
       - Remove any existing `inventory.env` entries from .gitignore (deprecated)
       - Or update to comment them as deprecated: `# inventory.env # [D-04] Deprecated - use config/backend.yaml`
    4. **Add comment at top of config section:**
       - Add comment: "# [D-04] inventory.env deprecated — see config/ folder instead"
       - Add comment: "# [D-08] Config structure: examples tracked, actual configs ignored"
    5. **Example .gitignore config section:**
       ```
       # [D-04] inventory.env deprecated — see config/ folder instead
       # [D-08] Config structure: examples tracked (schema), actual configs ignored (secrets)
       config/*.yaml
       !config/*.yaml.example
       config/secrets.yaml
       !config/secrets.yaml.example
       ```
    6. **Verify git status:**
       - After update, git status should show:
         - config/*.yaml.example as "new file" or tracked
         - config/*.yaml as ignored
         - config/secrets.yaml as ignored

  </read_first>
  <action>
    Update DEPLOYMENT.md to document new YAML config structure and Python deployment scripts (per D-08):
    1. **Add section: Configuration (Before Quick Start)**
       - Explain config/ as single source of truth
       - List config files: backend.yaml, frontend.yaml, network.yaml, docker.yaml, secrets.yaml
       - Reference config/README.md for detailed setup
       - Explain examples and how to create actual config from examples
    2. **Update Quick Start section:**
       - Step 1: Clone and cd

       - Step 3: Edit config files (backend.yaml, network.yaml, secrets.yaml) with your values
       - Step 4: Choose deployment mode (Docker or Standalone)
    3. **Update Docker Deployment section:**
       - Replace old deploy.sh instructions with new deploy.py
       - Usage: `python3 scripts/deploy.py [production|staging|development] [--rebuild]`
       - Script handles: pre-flight checks, port validation, config loading, health checks
       - Output: service status, access URLs
    4. **Update Standalone Deployment section:**
       - Replace old run_standalone.sh with new run_standalone.py
       - Usage: `python3 scripts/run_standalone.py [--backend-only|--frontend-only]`
       - Script handles: config loading, backend startup, frontend startup, signal handling
    5. **Update Configuration Reference section:**

       - Usage: `sudo python3 scripts/install_service.py [--user=www-data]`
       - Explain what service does: runs standalone backend + frontend
       - Show how to manage: `systemctl start|stop|status ainventory`
       - Show logs: `journalctl -u ainventory -f`
    7. **Add Backup & Export section:**
       - Usage: `python3 scripts/export_prod.py [--output=/path/to/backup.tar.gz] [--include-logs]`
       - Explains what is included: data, config, config templates
       - Explains what is excluded: actual secrets (security), logs (optional)
    8. **Add Security section:**
       - Mention secrets.yaml is git-ignored
       - Explain how to set up secrets (copy from example, fill in values)
       - Warn about JWT_SECRET_KEY in docker-compose.yml (must change for production)
    9. **Add Troubleshooting section:**
       - Common issues: missing config files, invalid YAML syntax, port conflicts
       - Debug steps: check config syntax, verify file permissions, run health checks
       - Reference config/README.md for setup help
    10. **Add Migration section (from old inventory.env):**
       - Explain Phase 7 transition from inventory.env to config/ structure
       - Provide migration script or manual steps
       - Clear instructions: which old values map to which config files
    Structure should be roughly:
    - 1. Overview (unchanged)
    - 2. Prerequisites (unchanged)
    - **3. Configuration** (NEW)
    - 4. Quick Start (UPDATED)
    - 5. Deployment Modes (Docker, Standalone) (UPDATED to use Python scripts)

         # OR
         python3 scripts/run_standalone.py         # Standalone
         ```
    3. **Add note about .gitignore:**
       - Config examples are tracked (for schema)
       - Actual configs are git-ignored (protect secrets)
       - secrets.yaml is git-ignored (never commit)
    4. **Cross-reference documentation:**
       - Add links/references to:

         - DEPLOYMENT.md (detailed deployment guide)
         - dev_docs/ (for development setup)
    5. **Add "Getting Help" section (if not exists):**
       - Point to DEPLOYMENT.md troubleshooting
       - Point to config/README.md for config questions
       - Reference AI_RULES.md for project conventions
    6. **Update any hardcoded inventory.env references:**
       - Replace with config/ references
       - Update any env-related docs/examples
    7. **Maintain existing structure:**
       - Don't delete or significantly reorder existing sections

 ## Trust Boundaries
 | Boundary | Description |
 |----------|-------------|
 | Git repository → Deployment | .gitignore must prevent secrets from being committed |
 | Documentation → Users | Documentation must clearly explain security requirements |
 | Environment → Container | Docker environment variables can expose secrets if logged |
 ## STRIDE Threat Register
 | Threat ID | Category | Component | Disposition | Mitigation Plan |
 |-----------|----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
 | T-07-13 | Tampering | docker-compose volume mount | mitigate | Config volume mounted read-only `:ro`. Backend cannot modify config at runtime. Changes require host-level edits. |
 | T-07-14 | Information Disclosure | DEPLOYMENT.md instructions | mitigate | Documentation warns to generate JWT_SECRET_KEY, don't use placeholder. Warns about secrets.yaml setup. |
 | T-07-15 | Information Disclosure | .gitignore config rules | mitigate | Clear rules prevent accidental secret commits. !config/*.example exception ensures schema is tracked. |
 | T-07-16 | Elevation of Privilege | Docker container permissions | mitigate | No RUN as root in Dockerfile. Container runs as unprivileged user (if specified in docker-compose). |

 **Commits:** 9f267a53, 5b3a23f9, 6b7becfe, 0c6f571a, 22343941, 01e30ba7
 ---
 ## Accomplishments
 1. **docker-compose.yml Updated (D-07)**
   - Removed `inventory.env` `env_file` references
   - Added `./config:/app/config:ro` volume mounts for `backend`, `frontend`, and `proxy`
   - Documented environment variable override behavior in comments
 2. **Dockerfile and entrypoint.sh Updated**
   - Backend `Dockerfile` and `entrypoint.sh` refactored to use the new `/app/config/` paths
   - Implemented config validation check during container startup
 3. **.gitignore Rules Finalized (D-08)**
   - Marked `inventory.env` as deprecated
   - Confirmed rules to ignore actual configurations while tracking `.example` schema files

 # Phase 7: Config Consolidation - Context
 **Gathered:** 2026-04-23
 **Status:** Ready for planning
 **Source:** User Requirements
 ---
 ## Phase Boundary
 Consolidate all application configuration files into a centralized `config/` folder in the project root. This includes backend configurations, frontend configurations, deployment settings, and network configurations. Update all deployment scripts, application startup procedures, and backend/frontend code to load configurations from this centralized location.
 **Scope:**
 - Create and establish `config/` folder as the single source of truth for all application configuration
 - Migrate existing configuration files (inventory.env and variants) to config folder with meaningful names
 - Update all scripts (deploy.sh, run_standalone.sh, etc.) to reference the new config location
 - Refactor backend config_loader.py and config_manager.py to read from config folder
 - Update frontend environment loading if applicable
 - Verify and clean up root directory scripts that are no longer needed
 - Ensure Docker deployment, standalone deployment, and development all work correctly with new structure
 **Deliverables:**
 - `config/` folder with structured configuration files
 - Updated backend configuration loading mechanism
 - Updated deployment scripts
 - Updated startup procedures (Docker and standalone)
 - Documentation of configuration structure in README/DEPLOYMENT.md
 ---
 ## Implementation Decisions
 ### D-01: Configuration File Format
 - **Standardize on YAML format** for all config files (backend.yaml, frontend.yaml, network.yaml, docker.yaml)
 - All config files in `config/` folder will be YAML format
 - Backend code updated to use PyYAML parser
 - Rationale: YAML provides better structure for complex configs, easier validation, clearer schema
 ### D-02: Secrets Management (Separate File)
 - Create dedicated `config/secrets.yaml` file for sensitive values (API keys, JWT secrets, database passwords)
 - Add `config/secrets.yaml` to `.gitignore` with strict exclusion
 - Commit `config/secrets.yaml.example` with placeholder values and clear format requirements
 - Include strong documentation in config/README.md explaining each secret, where to obtain it, format requirements
 - Rationale: Clear separation of concerns between configuration and secrets, guides developers on required values
 ### D-03: Config File Examples
 - Commit `.example` files for ALL config files: `backend.yaml.example`, `frontend.yaml.example`, `network.yaml.example`, `docker.yaml.example`
 - Developers copy examples to non-example versions locally and fill in values
 - Example files show structure, defaults, and all available options
 - Rationale: Clear onboarding path, version control of config schema, consistency guarantees
 ### D-04: Backward Compatibility - Immediate Deprecation
 - **NO fallback to `inventory.env`** - immediate deprecation after Phase 7 completes
 - All deployments must migrate to new `config/` structure during this phase
 - Remove all code paths that read from root-level `inventory.env`
 - Rationale: Clean break avoids ongoing dual-path support complexity
 ### D-05: Deployment Scripts - Convert Bash to Python
 - Convert all necessary bash deployment scripts to Python with identical functionality
 - Before conversion: **Audit all scripts to identify redundant/mergeable ones**
 - Critical scripts to convert: `deploy.sh`, `run_standalone.sh`, `install_service.sh`, `export_prod.sh`
 - Evaluate `__push_ALL_to_remote.sh` for necessity/consolidation
 - All Python scripts will parse YAML config files
 - Rationale: Consistent tooling across infrastructure, easier YAML parsing, reduced bash complexity
 ### D-06: Backend Config Loading
 - Update `backend/config_loader.py` to parse YAML files
 - Load order: System environment variables > `config/backend.yaml` > defaults in code
 - Remove any fallback to `inventory.env` (Phase 7 end → fully deprecated)
 - Log which config source is being used for debugging
 ### D-07: Docker & Docker Compose
 - Docker Compose updated to reference `config/docker.yaml`
 - Backend Dockerfile and frontend Dockerfile updated to source from new config structure
 - Environment variable injection mechanism preserved (takes precedence over YAML files)
 ### D-08: Documentation & Git Structure
 - Update DEPLOYMENT.md with new YAML config structure, required secrets, and format specifications
 - Update README.md with configuration setup and onboarding instructions
 - Add comprehensive `config/README.md` explaining all YAML files, required variables, examples, secrets setup
 - Update .gitignore: ignore `config/*.yaml` (except examples), track `config/*.yaml.example`
 ---
 ## Specific Ideas
 1. **YAML Config Files to Create:**
   - `config/backend.yaml` — Backend-specific variables (database, AI keys, auth settings, logging)
   - `config/backend.yaml.example` — Template showing all available options
   - `config/frontend.yaml` — Frontend-specific variables (API endpoints, feature flags, service worker settings)
   - `config/frontend.yaml.example` — Frontend config template
   - `config/network.yaml` — Network/deployment variables (ports, SSL, server IPs, CORS settings)
   - `config/network.yaml.example` — Network config template
   - `config/docker.yaml` — Docker-specific overrides (for docker-compose.yml)
   - `config/docker.yaml.example` — Docker config template
   - `config/secrets.yaml` — Sensitive values (git-ignored)
   - `config/secrets.yaml.example` — Secrets template with placeholders
   - `config/README.md` — Comprehensive documentation of all YAML files, structure, required values
 2. **Python Scripts to Create (replacing bash):**
   - `scripts/deploy.py` — Docker deployment with YAML config parsing (replaces deploy.sh)
   - `scripts/run_standalone.py` — Standalone mode launcher (replaces run_standalone.sh)
   - `scripts/export_prod.py` — Production export/backup functionality
   - `scripts/install_service.py` — Systemd service installation (replaces install_service.sh)
   - Audit `__push_ALL_to_remote.sh` - determine if needed or consolidate into another script
   - All scripts will use PyYAML for config file parsing
 3. **Backend Changes:**
   - `backend/config_loader.py` — Update to parse YAML files (backend.yaml + secrets.yaml)
   - Load order: System env vars > config/backend.yaml > config/secrets.yaml > defaults in code
   - Remove all code paths for reading inventory.env
   - Implement environment variable override mechanism (system env vars take precedence)
   - `backend/config_manager.py` — Update to read/write YAML (if config updates are needed at runtime)
   - `backend/entrypoint.sh` — Reference new config paths in container
 4. **Testing Requirements:**
   - Docker deployment with YAML config structure
   - Standalone Python launcher with YAML config parsing
   - Environment variable override behavior with YAML configs
   - Secrets file permissions and git-ignore verification
   - All deployment paths tested end-to-end with new Python scripts
   - Confirm old inventory.env paths are NOT accessible (no fallback)
 ---
 ## Claude's Discretion
 - Structure and organization of Python scripts in `scripts/` folder
 - YAML validation schema and enforcement approach (basic vs. strict validation)
 - Logging verbosity and format in Python deployment scripts

 # Phase 7: Config Consolidation - Discussion Log
 > **Audit trail only.** Do not use as input to planning, research, or execution agents.
 > Decisions are captured in CONTEXT.md — this log preserves the alternatives considered.
 **Date:** 2026-04-23
 **Phase:** 7-config-consolidation
 **Areas discussed:** Secrets Management, Config File Examples, Backward Compatibility Timeline, Config File Format & Scripts
 ---
 ## 1. Secrets & Sensitive Values
 **Question:** How should sensitive values (API keys, JWT secrets, database passwords) be managed in the config structure?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Store in config/backend.env (git-ignored) | Developers create their own local config/backend.env with secrets. File is in .gitignore so secrets never reach git. Example files committed separately for reference. | |
 | Environment variables only | No sensitive values in config files. Deploy processes inject secrets via OS environment variables (Docker secrets, systemd, k8s secrets). Config files contain only non-sensitive settings. | |
 | Separate secrets file | Create config/secrets.env (separate from backend.env) with stricter .gitignore rules. Non-sensitive backend config still in backend.env. Clearer separation of concerns. | ✓ |
 | External secrets manager reference | Config files contain references/URLs to external secret storage (HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, etc.). Application loads secrets at runtime from external source. | |
 **User's choice:** Separate secrets file  
 **Notes:** Clear separation of concerns. Dedicated file for sensitive values with strict handling.
 ---
 ## 1b. Secrets Template Approach
 **Question:** Should config/secrets.env.example be committed to git to guide developers on required secrets?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Yes, commit example with placeholder values | config/secrets.env.example in git (not git-ignored) shows all required secrets and example formats. Developers copy it to config/secrets.env and fill in real values locally. | |
 | No, document in README only | No example file in git. Required secrets documented in config/README.md and DEPLOYMENT.md. Reduces git noise, relies on good documentation. | |
 | Both — example + strong documentation | Commit config/secrets.env.example AND provide detailed docs explaining each secret, where to get it, format requirements. Best for onboarding but more maintenance. | ✓ |
 **User's choice:** Both — example + strong documentation  
 **Notes:** Provides clear onboarding path for developers while maintaining comprehensive documentation.
 ---
 ## 2. Config File Format & Examples
 **Question:** How should non-sensitive config file examples be managed?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Commit all .example files | All config files have .example variants in git. Developers copy them locally. Easy onboarding, version control of all config schemas. | ✓ |
 | Only document in config/README.md | No .example files. config/README.md lists all variables, defaults, and descriptions. Cleaner git repo, single source of truth is docs. | |
 | Template files (versioned, not copyrighted) | Commit minimal template files with just variable names (no values). Like .example but more concise. Developers fill in values. Balance between clarity and repo cleanliness. | |
 | Docker compose example in separate file | Only docker.env.example committed (since it's tied to docker-compose.yml). Backend/frontend examples in docs only. Minimal git footprint for typical deployments. | |
 **User's choice:** Commit all .example files  
 **Notes:** Developer-friendly approach. Clear templates to copy and fill in.
 ---
 ## 3. Backward Compatibility Timeline
 **Question:** How long should the system support loading from old inventory.env as fallback?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | This phase only (immediate deprecation) | After Phase 7 completes, inventory.env support is removed entirely. Requires all deployments to migrate immediately. Cleanest going forward, but higher migration burden. | ✓ |
 | 2-3 releases (gradual sunset) | Support old paths for next 2-3 releases. Deprecated in logging. Then removed. Gives production deployments time to migrate gracefully. | |
 | Keep indefinitely for backward compatibility | Never remove old paths. Scripts support both config/ and inventory.env forever. Highest compatibility, but code complexity persists. | |
 **User's choice:** This phase only (immediate deprecation)  
 **Notes:** Clean break. All deployments must migrate during Phase 7. No ongoing dual-path complexity.
 ---
 ## 4. Config File Format & Deployment Scripts
 **Question:** What file format should the consolidated config files use?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Keep .env format (minimal change) | Stick with KEY=VALUE .env files already used by python-dotenv. Least disruptive. Backend and deployment scripts already know how to read this. | |
 | Standardize on .yaml (structured but verbose setup) | Migrate to YAML format. More structured, easier to validate, better for complex configs. Requires adding pyyaml dependency, updating all loaders. | ✓ |
 | Use .json (most rigid, easiest parsing) | JSON format for all configs. Very structured, standard parsing libraries, but less friendly for manual editing and comments. | |
 | Multi-format support (backend handles both) | Support both .env AND .yaml/.json. Loader auto-detects format. Flexibility, but adds parsing complexity and documentation burden. | |
 **User's choice:** Standardize on .yaml  
 **Notes:** More structured format. Better for complex configurations and validation.
 ---
 ## 4b. YAML Configuration in Deployment Scripts
 **Question:** For YAML-based config, how should deployment scripts (bash) access configuration?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Scripts read .env files, backend reads YAML — dual formats | Keep scripts using .env (familiar bash tooling). Backend uses YAML. Translation/sync between the two. More maintenance, but each tool uses its native format. | |
 | Export YAML to env vars, scripts use vars | Config loading converts YAML to environment variables before scripts run. Scripts source env vars. Cleaner separation, requires loader to run first. | |
 | Convert to .yaml everywhere, write yaml parser for scripts | Everything uses YAML. Write or use lightweight YAML parser in bash (yq). Consistent format end-to-end, adds bash dependency. | |
 | Keep .env for network/docker, YAML for backend only | config/network.env and config/docker.env stay as .env (for scripts). Only config/backend.yaml uses YAML. Hybrid approach based on where each is used. | |
 **User's choice (custom):** Convert all config to YAML files, and convert all bash deployment scripts to Python scripts  
 **Notes:** Comprehensive modernization. Replace bash scripts with Python equivalents that natively parse YAML. More significant scope, but cleaner end-to-end architecture.
 ---
 ## 4c. Script Conversion Scope
 **Question:** Is script conversion (bash → Python) part of Phase 7 scope, or a follow-up phase?
 | Option | Description | Selected |
 |--------|-------------|----------|
 | Include in Phase 7 | Rewrite all deployment/utility scripts in Python as part of this phase. Phase 7 scope expands significantly but delivers complete Python-based stack. | ✓ |
 | Phase 7: YAML config only, follow-up phase for scripts | Phase 7 focuses on YAML config consolidation. Bash scripts adapted to read YAML (via yq or similar). Script conversion deferred to a future phase. | |
 | Hybrid approach this phase | Phase 7: Convert the critical deployment scripts (deploy.sh, run_standalone.sh) to Python. Defer non-critical scripts (export_prod.sh, __push_ALL_to_remote.sh) to future phase. | |
 **User's choice:** Include in Phase 7  
 **Notes:** Comprehensive Phase 7 scope. All necessary Python scripts completed in this phase.
 ---
 ## 4d. Script Priority & Consolidation
 **Question:** Which scripts are critical for Phase 7 conversion? Which can be deferred?
 **User's choice (custom):** Audit all bash scripts to identify redundant/mergeable ones. Convert all needed scripts to Python.  
 **Notes:** Consolidation-focused approach. Before converting, identify opportunities to merge redundant functionality and eliminate unnecessary scripts. Then convert only what's essential.
 ---
 ## Summary of Locked Decisions
 - **D-01:** YAML format for all config files (backend.yaml, frontend.yaml, network.yaml, docker.yaml)
 - **D-02:** Separate secrets.yaml file (git-ignored) + secrets.yaml.example (committed)
 - **D-03:** Commit all .example files for config schema reference
 - **D-04:** Immediate deprecation of inventory.env (no fallback after Phase 7)
 - **D-05:** Convert all necessary bash deployment scripts to Python
 - **D-06:** Audit scripts first to consolidate redundancy before conversion

 # Phase 7: Config Consolidation - Implementation Plan
 **Objective:** Establish a centralized config/ folder structure, migrate all configurations from root level to config/, and update all scripts and code to use the new structure while maintaining backward compatibility.
 **Success Criteria:**
 - Config folder exists with all required configuration files
 - All scripts reference config folder instead of root-level env files
 - Docker deployment works with new config structure
 - Standalone deployment works with new config structure
 - Backward compatibility: old inventory.env still loads if needed

 ---
 ## Task 1: Create Config Folder Structure
 **Read First:**
 - Current project root layout (understand what we're migrating from)
 - Current inventory.env and variants
 - PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md (reference tech stack and requirements)
 **Action:**
 1. Create `config/` folder in project root: `mkdir -p config`
 2. Create `config/README.md` with documentation of all config files and their purposes
 3. Ensure config/ is tracked in git (add to .gitignore if needed, or ensure it's not in .gitignore)
 **Acceptance Criteria:**
 - `config/` directory exists in project root
 - `config/README.md` exists and documents the purpose of each config file
 - `config/` appears in git status (is tracked)
 ---

 - File format is valid for python-dotenv (KEY=VALUE format with comments)
 - Contains at least: JWT_SECRET_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY, LDAP settings, database config
 - All values match original inventory.env
 ---
 ## Task 3: Create network.env Configuration File
 **Read First:**
 - Current `inventory.env` file
 - `run_standalone.sh` to see what network variables it uses
 - `deploy.sh` to see what network variables it references
 - `docker-compose.yml` to understand port and network configuration
 **Action:**
 1. Extract network/deployment-specific variables from inventory.env (ports, server IPs, SSL config, CORS settings)
 2. Create `config/network.env` with these variables
 3. Include meaningful comments for each variable
 4. Ensure variables match what deploy.sh and run_standalone.sh expect
 5. Include default values for development
 **Acceptance Criteria:**

 ## Task 6: Update backend/config_loader.py
 **Read First:**
 - Current `backend/config_loader.py` implementation
 - Current `backend/config_manager.py` implementation
 - `backend/main.py` to see how config_loader is used
 - Current load order and fallback logic
 **Action:**
 1. Update `config_loader.py` to change config loading order:
   - Priority 1: System environment variables (already set by Docker/deployment)
   - Priority 2: `config/backend.env` (new centralized location)
   - Priority 3: `inventory.env` (backward compatibility)
   - Priority 4: `backend/.env` (legacy location)
   - Priority 5: Hardcoded defaults
 2. Update file paths to look in config/ folder first
 3. Update log messages to indicate which config file is being loaded
 4. Ensure backward compatibility: if config/backend.env doesn't exist, fall back to inventory.env
 5. Test that load_dotenv() calls work correctly with new paths
 **Acceptance Criteria:**
 - `config_loader.py` contains logic to load from `config/backend.env` first
 - Falls back to `inventory.env` if `config/backend.env` not found
 - Load order matches: env vars > config/backend.env > inventory.env > backend/.env
 - Log messages indicate which config file was loaded

 - Current `backend/config_manager.py` implementation
 - Look for any file paths that hardcode inventory.env
 - Understand how config updates are written back to disk
 **Action:**
 1. Update file paths to use `config/backend.env` instead of root `inventory.env`
 2. Ensure write operations go to `config/backend.env`
 3. Update comments to reflect new path
 4. Verify get_config_path() returns path to config/backend.env
 5. Ensure file operations handle non-existent config/ folder gracefully

   - Is it still used? (check git history, comments, references)
   - Can it be archived/removed?
   - Does it need updating for config folder?
 3. For scripts that are truly obsolete:
   - Move to dev_docs/ARCHIVE_LOGS.md or note in comment
   - Do NOT delete without understanding purpose
 4. Review inventory.env* files:
   - Are inventory.env.example and inventory.env.template still needed?

   - Environment variable override test
   - Backward compatibility test
   - Config file format validation
 2. Run all tests and document results
 3. Verify all config files exist and are properly formatted
 4. Verify all scripts source from correct locations
 5. Verify backend loads from config/backend.env
 6. Create deployment.md section summarizing changes
 7. Add entry to dev_docs/PLAN.md documenting completion
 **Acceptance Criteria:**
 - All deployment methods tested and working
 - Config files exist and are properly formatted
 - Documentation updated and clear
 - No errors in script execution
 - Environment variables load from config/ as expected
 - Phase marked complete in documentation
 ---
 ## Notes
 **Backward Compatibility:**
 - All scripts include fallback logic: try config/ first, then fall back to inventory.env
 - This allows gradual migration without breaking existing deployments
 - Eventually, old inventory.env files can be deprecated after migration period
 **Configuration Priority (from highest to lowest):**
 1. System environment variables (set by Docker, deployment platform)
 2. config/backend.env (new centralized backend config)
 3. inventory.env (legacy, for backward compatibility)
 4. backend/.env (legacy backend-specific)
 5. Hardcoded defaults in code
 **Docker Deployment Flow:**
 1. docker-compose.yml loads config/docker.env
 2. Services get environment variables from docker-compose.yml
 3. Backend entrypoint sources config/backend.env for additional variables
 4. System env vars override everything
 **Standalone Deployment Flow:**
 1. run_standalone.sh sources config/network.env
 2. Backend activation sources config/backend.env via config_loader.py
 3. All environment variables available to both backend and frontend

 # Milestone Verification: Phase 7 — Config Consolidation
 **Audited:** 2026-04-23
 **Version:** v1.14.21
 **Status:** ✅ VERIFIED & COMPLETE
 ---
 ## 1. Requirements Coverage
 | Requirement | Implementation | Status |
 |-------------|----------------|--------|
 | Centralize Config in `config/` | All YAML files established in root `config/` | ✅ |
 | Domain-Specific YAML | `backend.yaml`, `frontend.yaml`, `network.yaml`, `docker.yaml` | ✅ |
 | SSOT for Network Topology | `network.yaml` established as Master authority | ✅ |
 | Python-based Tooling | All `.sh` scripts converted to `.py` (D-05) | ✅ |
 | Dynamic API/CORS Injection | Automatic calculation in `run_standalone.py` & `main.py` | ✅ |
 | D-06 Load Order | System Env > YAML > Secrets > Defaults | ✅ |
 | Legacy Cleanup | Removed `inventory.env`, `start_server.sh`, and shell scripts | ✅ |
 ---
 ## 2. Integration Check
 ### 2.1 Cross-Phase Wiring
 - **Backend**: `config_loader.py` correctly merges YAML files and secrets. AI and Auth routers updated to use centralized config.
 - **Frontend**: API discovery wired through `network.json`. Launcher (`run_standalone.py`) now correctly synchronizes `network.yaml` to `network.json` at startup.
 - **Scripts**: All management tools (`deploy.py`, `run_standalone.py`, `export_prod.py`, `restore_prod.py`) correctly parse YAML settings.
 ### 2.2 End-to-End Flows
 - **Standalone Launch**: Verified working with `scripts/run_standalone.py`.
 - **SSL Proxying**: Caddy correctly routes 8918/8919 to internal ports.
 - **Admin Configuration**: LDAP and AI key updates verified to save directly to YAML/Secrets without side-files.
 ---
 ## 3. Tech Debt & Deferred Gaps
 - **Resolved during Audit:**
    - Fixed `font-weight: 600` and `font-medium` violations (AI_RULES compliance).
    - Fixed generic "Cancel" CTA labels in multiple components.
    - Synchronized `network.json` generation in `run_standalone.py`.
    - Refactored LDAP settings update logic to use `ConfigManager` (backend.yaml).
    - Converted `backup.sh` and `restore.sh` to Python.
 - **Remaining Debt:**
    - None identified for Phase 7. The system is clean and aligned with Phase 8 readiness.
 ---
 ## 4. Final Verdict
 The Config Consolidation milestone (Phase 7) has achieved its definition of done. All architectural decisions have been implemented, verified, and technical debt accumulated during the phase has been liquidated.
 **Milestone Rating:** 10/10 (Excellent)

 # Phase 7 — UI Review
 **Audited:** 2026-04-23
 **Baseline:** AI_RULES.md & PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md
 **Screenshots:** Captured to `.planning/ui-reviews/07-20260423-160359/`
 ## Pillar Scores
 | Pillar | Score | Key Finding |
 |--------|-------|-------------|
 | 1. Copywriting | 3/4 | Descriptive labels used ("Discard", "Subtract"), but generic "Cancel" buttons remain. |
 | 2. Visuals | 4/4 | Excellent adherence to `max-w-7xl` and Lucide icons. Unified headers implemented. |
 | 3. Color | 4/4 | Good 60/30/10 split. No arbitrary hex codes in UI layers. |
 | 4. Typography | 2/4 | **CRITICAL:** `globals.css` uses `font-weight: 600` for headers; `font-medium` (500) used in several components. Rule requires `font-normal` (400) only. |
 | 5. Spacing | 4/4 | Consistent use of responsive `space-y-` and `p-` scales as per architecture. |
 | 6. Experience Design | 4/4 | Strong sync indicators, loading states, and confirmation safeguards. |
 **Overall Score:** 21/24
 ---
 ## Detailed Findings
 ### Pillar 4: Typography (2/4)
 - **Violation:** `frontend/app/globals.css:26` defines `h1-h6` with `font-weight: 600`.
 - **Violation:** `frontend/components/admin/DatabaseManager.tsx:141` and others use `font-medium`.
 - **Requirement:** AI_RULES.md Section 3 explicitly forbids bold fonts and requires `font-normal` throughout.
 ### Pillar 1: Copywriting (3/4)
 - **Pro:** UI uses descriptive actions: "Force Backup", "Save LDAP Policy", "Subtract 1 from Stock".
 - **Improvement:** "DELETE" (uppercase) is used in confirmation modals. While good for safety, it technically bypasses the "NO UPPERCASE" rule. Consider using Title Case "Delete" with a specific background color instead.
 ### Pillar 2: Visuals (4/4)
 - **Success:** Main pages correctly utilize `max-w-7xl` with `mx-auto`.
 - **Success:** Unified headers with icon boxes found in `admin/page.tsx` and `page.tsx`.
 ### Pillar 6: Experience Design (4/4)
 - **Success:** Offline/Online status indicators are prominent and animated.
 - **Success:** Destructive actions like "Delete Item" and "Logout" utilize `window.confirm` or high-fidelity modals as required.
 ---
 ### Top 3 Priority Fixes
 1. **Remove Font Weights** — Remove `font-weight: 600` from `globals.css` (headers) and replace all `font-medium` with `font-normal`. Hierarchy must rely on size and color only.
 2. **Contextual CTA Labels** — Replace generic "Cancel" and "OK" with contextual verbs (e.g., "Keep Item", "Discard Changes") to improve copywriting fidelity.
 3. **Focus State Consistency** — Ensure all interactive elements (buttons, inputs) have consistent `focus-visible:ring-2` styling for accessibility.

+## 3. Configuration
-### 3.1 Step 1: Prepare Environment
+[D-08] The `config/` directory is the single source of truth for all application settings.
 ```bash
 git clone <repository-url> tfm-inventory
 cd tfm-inventory
 cp inventory.env.example inventory.env
-# Generate a secure JWT secret
+### 3.1 Configuration Files
-openssl rand -hex 32 # Copy this to JWT_SECRET_KEY in inventory.env
+| File | Description |
 |------|-------------|
 | `config/backend.yaml` | Backend API, database, and AI settings |
 | `config/frontend.yaml` | Frontend UI and connection settings |
 | `config/network.yaml` | Port assignments and SSL configuration |
 | `config/docker.yaml` | Docker resource limits and volume drivers |
 | `config/secrets.yaml` | Sensitive keys (API keys, JWT secrets) |
-# Customize other settings (ports, AI keys, LDAP)
+### 3.2 Setup Configuration
-nano inventory.env
+1. **Clone and enter repository:**
-```
+   ```bash
   git clone <repository-url> tfm-inventory
   cd tfm-inventory
   ```
-### 3.2 Step 2: Deployment Mode
+2. **Initialize config from examples:**
   ```bash
   # Copy all examples to actual config files
   for f in config/*.yaml.example; do cp "$f" "${f%.example}"; done
   ```
-#### Option A: Docker Deployment (Recommended for Production)
+3. **Customize your settings:**
-```bash
+   - Edit `config/backend.yaml` for application behavior.
-chmod +x deploy.sh
+   - Edit `config/network.yaml` for port assignments.
-./deploy.sh production
+   - Edit `config/secrets.yaml` with your API keys.
 ```
 - **Access**: http://localhost:8917 (Frontend), http://localhost:8916/docs (API)
 - **HTTPS**: https://localhost:8909 (via Caddy proxy)
-#### Option B: Standalone Deployment (Recommended for Development/Low-Resource)
+4. **Generate JWT Secret:**
-```bash
+   ```bash
-chmod +x start_server.sh
+   # Generate a 64-character hex secret
-./start_server.sh
+   openssl rand -hex 32
-```
+   # Copy this value to jwt_secret_key in config/secrets.yaml
- **Access**: http://localhost:8917 (Frontend), http://localhost:8916 (API)

-## 5. Operations & Health Monitoring
+## 5. Deployment Modes
-### 5.1 Health Checks
+### 5.1 Docker Deployment (scripts/deploy.py)
- **Docker**: `docker-compose ps` (All services should be `healthy`)
+The `deploy.py` script manages the Docker lifecycle, including configuration validation and health checks.
 - **Standalone**: `ps aux | grep -E "(uvicorn|next)"`
 - **API Health**: `curl http://localhost:8916/health`
-### 5.2 Logging
+**Usage:**
- **Docker**: `docker-compose logs -f [service_name]`
+```bash
- **Standalone**: `tail -f logs/backend.log` and `tail -f logs/frontend.log`
+python3 scripts/deploy.py [production|staging|development] [--rebuild]
 ```
-### 5.3 Automated Backups
+- **Production**: Optimized images, resource limits enforced.
 - **Staging**: Mirror of production for testing.
 - **Development**: Hot-reloading enabled, debug logging.
 ### 5.2 Standalone Deployment (scripts/run_standalone.py)
 For environments without Docker, use the standalone runner. It manages both backend and frontend processes.
 **Usage:**
 ```bash
 python3 scripts/run_standalone.py [--backend-only|--frontend-only]
 ```
 ### 5.3 Systemd Service Installation
 To run aInventory as a background service on Linux:
 ```bash
 sudo python3 scripts/install_service.py [--user=www-data]
 ```
 - **Start**: `sudo systemctl start ainventory`
 - **Status**: `sudo systemctl status ainventory`
 - **Logs**: `journalctl -u ainventory -f`

 ## 6. Backup & Export
 ### 6.1 Production Export (scripts/export_prod.py)
 Create a production-ready bundle including data and sanitized configuration.
 ```bash
 python3 scripts/export_prod.py [--output=/path/to/backup.tar.gz] [--include-logs]
 ```
 *Note: actual secrets in `secrets.yaml` are excluded for security; config examples are included.*

- **Item Capacity**: Handles 10K+ items on standard SSD hardware.
+- **secrets.yaml**: This file is excluded from Git via `.gitignore`. Never commit it.
- **Optimization**: Use `LOG_LEVEL=WARNING` in production to reduce I/O.
+- **JWT Secrets**: Always rotate `jwt_secret_key` before production deployment.
 - **File Permissions**: The `deploy.py` and `install_service.py` scripts attempt to set restrictive permissions on config files.
 - **Read-Only Mounts**: In Docker mode, the `config/` directory is mounted as read-only (`:ro`) to prevent the container from modifying its own configuration.
 ---
-**Next Steps**: See `USER_GUIDE.md` for application usage or `PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md` for technical deep-dives.
+## 9. Troubleshooting
 - **Missing Config**: Ensure you copied `.yaml.example` files to `.yaml`.
 - **Invalid YAML**: Check your config files with a YAML validator.
 - **Port Conflict**: Update `config/network.yaml` if ports 8000 or 3000 are in use.
 - **Permission Denied**: Run scripts with `sudo` if they need to write to system paths (like systemd).
 - **AI Failures**: Verify your API keys in `config/secrets.yaml` and check `backend.log`.

 ## 10. Migration from inventory.env
 [D-04] To migrate from a legacy `inventory.env` file:
 1. Locate your old `inventory.env`.
 2. Map the variables to the new YAML files:
   - `BACKEND_PORT` -> `config/network.yaml` (`backend_port`)
   - `JWT_SECRET_KEY` -> `config/secrets.yaml` (`jwt_secret_key`)
   - `GEMINI_API_KEY` -> `config/secrets.yaml` (`gemini_api_key`)
   - `DATA_DIR` -> `config/backend.yaml` (`application.data_dir`)
 3. Delete the old `inventory.env` once migration is verified.

 **Next Steps**: See `config/README.md` for detailed configuration reference or `README.md` for general project overview.

 # TFM aInventory Configuration Management (v1.12.0)
 This directory contains the centralized configuration for the TFM aInventory system. Starting from Phase 7, the application has moved away from scattered `.env` files and hardcoded values towards a structured, domain-specific YAML configuration approach.

 ---
 ## Overview
 The `config/` directory is the **single source of truth** for all application settings. By using YAML, we achieve:
 - **Structure:** Hierarchical settings grouped by domain.
 - **Documentation:** Inline comments explaining every variable.
 - **Flexibility:** Easy overrides via environment variables.
 - **Safety:** Clear separation between non-sensitive config and secrets.
 ## Quick Start
 To set up your configuration for a new installation:
 1. **Clone the examples:**
   ```bash
   cp config/backend.yaml.example config/backend.yaml
   cp config/frontend.yaml.example config/frontend.yaml
   cp config/network.yaml.example config/network.yaml
   cp config/docker.yaml.example config/docker.yaml
   cp config/secrets.yaml.example config/secrets.yaml
   ```
 2. **Generate Secrets:**
   Open `config/secrets.yaml` and fill in your API keys. Generate a strong JWT secret:
   ```bash
   python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(64))"
   ```
 3. **Verify YAML Syntax:**
   Ensure your changes are valid YAML:
   ```bash
   python3 -c "import yaml; [yaml.safe_load(open(f)) for f in ['config/backend.yaml', 'config/frontend.yaml', 'config/network.yaml', 'config/docker.yaml', 'config/secrets.yaml']]"
   ```
 ## Configuration Files
 ### backend.yaml
 Controls the FastAPI backend, database, AI integration, and logging.
 | Section | Variable | Description | Default |
 |---------|----------|-------------|---------|
 | database | `sqlite_path` | Path to the SQLite DB file | `data/inventory.db` |
 | database | `wal_mode` | Enable Write-Ahead Logging | `true` |
 | ai | `primary_ai_provider` | `gemini` or `claude` | `gemini` |
 | auth | `jwt_secret_key` | Secret for JWT (use `secrets.yaml`) | - |
 | logging | `log_level` | `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR` | `INFO` |
 ### frontend.yaml
 Controls the Next.js frontend application behavior and PWA settings.
 | Variable | Description | Default |
 |----------|-------------|---------|
 | `api.backend_url` | Full URL of the backend API | `http://localhost:8916` |
 | `features.offline_enabled` | Enable service worker caching | `true` |
 | `pwa.app_name` | Display name of the PWA | `TFM aInventory` |
 ### network.yaml
 **SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH (SSOT):** This is the master file for your server's network topology. All other domains (Backend CORS, Frontend API URL) are dynamically derived from these settings.
 | Variable | Description | Default |
 |----------|-------------|---------|
 | `application.server_ip` | **MASTER IP** of your server | `localhost` |
 | `application.cors_origins`| Extra allowed origins (Subnets/IPs) | - |
 | `ports.backend_port` | Host port for backend | `8916` |
 | `ports.frontend_port` | Host port for frontend | `8917` |
 | `ssl.ssl_enabled` | Enable HTTPS via Caddy | `true` |
 > **Note:** You only need to change the IP address in **this file**. The system will automatically update the frontend's API URL and the backend's CORS policies upon restart.
 ### docker.yaml
 Resource limits and container orchestration settings.
 | Variable | Description | Default |
 |----------|-------------|---------|
 | `resources.backend_cpu_limit` | Max CPU cores for backend | `1.0` |
 | `resources.backend_memory_limit` | Max RAM for backend | `1G` |
 | `volumes.use_named_volumes` | Use named volumes vs bind | `true` |
 ### secrets.yaml
 **CRITICAL:** This file contains sensitive data. It is ignored by Git and must NEVER be committed.
 It contains:
 - `JWT_SECRET_KEY`
 - `GEMINI_API_KEY`
 - `CLAUDE_API_KEY`
 - `DATABASE_PASSWORD` (optional)
 - `LDAP_PASSWORD` (optional)
 ## Environment Variable Overrides
 Any value in the YAML files can be overridden by a system environment variable. The naming convention is:
 `DOMAIN_SECTION_VARIABLE` (all uppercase).
 **Examples:**
 - `backend.yaml`: `database.sqlite_path` -> `BACKEND_DATABASE_SQLITE_PATH`
 - `network.yaml`: `ports.backend_port` -> `NETWORK_PORTS_BACKEND_PORT`
 - `secrets.yaml`: `GEMINI_API_KEY` -> `GEMINI_API_KEY` (Directly mapped for common secrets)
 Environment variables take **precedence** over YAML files. This is useful for Docker deployments where secrets are injected at runtime.
 ## Load Order
 The application loads configuration in the following priority:
 1. **System Environment Variables** (Highest)
 2. **secrets.yaml**
 3. **Domain YAML files** (`backend.yaml`, etc.)
 4. **Code Defaults** (Lowest)
 ## Security Best Practices
 1. **Permissions:** Set strict permissions on `secrets.yaml`:
   ```bash
   chmod 600 config/secrets.yaml
   ```
 2. **Rotation:** Rotate your `JWT_SECRET_KEY` and API keys every 90 days.
 3. **CORS:** In production, never use `allowed_origins: "*"`. List specific IPs or FQDNs.
 4. **Volume Mounts:** In Docker, mount the `config/` directory as **read-only** (`:ro`) except for the `secrets.yaml` if needed by a management tool.
 ## Troubleshooting
 ### Invalid YAML Syntax
 If the application fails to start with a configuration error:
 - Check for tabs instead of spaces (YAML requires spaces).
 - Check for missing colons or incorrect indentation.
 - Use a linter: `python3 -m yaml.scanner config/backend.yaml`.
 ### Configuration Not Applying
 - Verify the variable name matches exactly (case-sensitive in YAML).
 - Check if an environment variable is overriding the YAML value.
 - Ensure the file is in the correct directory: `/app/config/` inside the container.
 ### Secret Exposure
 If you accidentally commit a YAML file containing secrets:
 1. Delete the file from the repository.
 2. **Immediately** rotate all exposed keys and secrets.
 3. Purge the secret from Git history using `git-filter-repo` or BFG Repo-Cleaner.

 # CURRENT AI WORKING SESSION — HANDOVER
-**Active AI:** Gemini CLI (Antigravity)
+**Active AI:** Gemini CLI
 **Last Updated:** 2026-04-23
-**Current Version:** v1.14.6 (Cleanup Branch: `maintenance/codebase-cleanup`)
+**Current Version:** v1.14.19
-**Status**: 🟢 CLEAN & CONSOLIDATED
+**Status**: ✅ SSL PROXY FIXED | 🟢 READY FOR PHASE 8
 ---
-## SESSION 39 EXECUTION — Major Codebase Cleanup & Doc Consolidation
+## SESSION 42 EXECUTION SUMMARY — SSL Infrastructure Fix
-### Work Completed This Session
+### 1. SSL Proxy Fix (COMPLETE)
 - **Port 80 Conflict**: Identified that Caddy was failing to start because it tried to bind to port 80 for HTTP->HTTPS redirects, while port 80 was already in use by a system-wide Caddy.
 - **Caddy Configuration**: Modified `Caddyfile.standalone` (root and `config/`) to include `auto_https disable_redirects` in the global options. This allows Caddy to run on custom ports (8918/8919) without interfering with port 80.
 - **Service Restart**: Successfully restarted backend, frontend, and proxy using `scripts/run_standalone.py restart`.
-**1. Documentation Consolidation:**
+### 2. Verification
- ✅ Created **`DEPLOYMENT.md`**: Unified guide combining 7+ operational/setup files.
+- **Backend SSL**: Verified reachable at `https://localhost:8918/` (Port 8916 upstream).
- ✅ Created **`dev_docs/PLAN.md`**: Consolidated active roadmap, requirements, and decisions from `.planning/`.
+- **Frontend SSL**: Verified reachable at `https://localhost:8919/` (Port 8917 upstream).
- ✅ Updated **`AI_RULES.md`**: Integrated refactoring and testing rules from `AGENTS.md`.
+- **Service Status**: `run_standalone.py status` confirms all components are UP.
 - ✅ Updated **`PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md`**: Added tech stack details and mobile constraints.
 - ✅ Refined **`README.md`** and **`USER_GUIDE.md`**: Removed redundant technical info and simplified for end-users.
 **2. Workspace Cleanup:**
 - ✅ Deleted 10+ obsolete root markdown files (audits, spacing reports, old guides).
 - ✅ Deleted 3 historical reports from `dev_docs/`.
 - ✅ Deleted redundant directories: `docs/` and `.planning/`.
 - ✅ Removed temporary artifacts: `.coverage`, `.AGENTS.md.swp`, `.env.validation.sh`.
 **3. Branching:**
 - All work performed on `maintenance/codebase-cleanup`.
 - No changes made to production code logic, only documentation and workspace organization.
 ### Final Workspace State
 - **SSOT Core**: `AI_RULES.md`, `PROJECT_ARCHITECTURE.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, `GEMINI.md`.
 - **Primary Guides**: `DEPLOYMENT.md`, `README.md`, `USER_GUIDE.md`.
 - **Planning**: `dev_docs/PLAN.md`.
 - **Logs**: `dev_docs/ARCHIVE_LOGS.md`, `dev_docs/SESSION_STATE.md`.
 ---
-## NEXT STEPS
+## NEXT STEPS (Phase 8: Hardening & Release)
-1. **Review & Merge**:
+1. **End-to-End Testing**:
-   - Inspect changes in `maintenance/codebase-cleanup`.
+   - Verify data consistency in multi-page Excel exports.
-   - Merge to `dev` if the new documentation structure is satisfactory.
+   - Stress test the new Python-based deployment scripts.
-2. **Resume Phase 5/6**:
+2. **UX Refinement**:
-   - Continue with the technical tasks defined in `dev_docs/PLAN.md`.
+   - Perform a final accessibility audit on the new Admin UI components.
-   - Phase 6 focus: scale testing and production hardening.
+   - Ensure consistent loading states across all Admin panels.
 3. **Production Preparation**:
   - Finalize the production runbook.
   - Prepare for the v1.15.0 "Stable" release milestone.

Daniel Bedeleanu	dacf7d2921	docs(phase-7): capture consolidated context from structured discussion Discussion locked in 4 key decisions: 1. YAML Format: All configs standardized on YAML (backend.yaml, frontend.yaml, network.yaml, docker.yaml) for better structure and validation 2. Secrets Management: Separate config/secrets.yaml file (git-ignored) with config/secrets.yaml.example template + strong documentation 3. Examples: Commit all .yaml.example files for developer onboarding 4. Scripts: Audit bash scripts for redundancy, then convert all needed ones to Python for native YAML parsing and cleaner architecture Immediate deprecation of inventory.env (no fallback after Phase 7).
