The SQLite DB is the signed append-only ledger, so a disk failure / stolen or
destroyed PC means total revenue-history loss (open-question #5). This is the first
slice of the backup-recovery design: the engine + a local/mounted target + a daily
timer + a manual route.
Engine (apps/server/src/backup.ts):
- Consistent online copy of the live WAL DB via better-sqlite3's native .backup()
(not a raw file copy, which can capture a torn WAL) — the restored copy is a
byte-identical, queryable DB.
- AES-256-GCM with a scrypt-derived key from BACKUP_KEY; self-describing header
(magic|version|salt|iv|...|authTag) so a restore tool needs only the key + file.
Zero new dependencies (Node crypto).
- The plaintext intermediate is kept in scratch (not the removable/network target)
and wiped in a finally, success or fail.
- Retention: keep-last-N + one-per-day within N days.
Wiring:
- BackupService (env config, single in-flight guard, last-success/last-error).
- routes/backup.ts: GET /api/backup/status (backup:read), POST /api/backup/run
(backup:create), 409 when unconfigured. No restore route — restore is an
out-of-band runbook action on a fresh appliance, not a console call.
- New permission resource in @parking/shared.
- server.ts: an unref'd daily timer, a no-op until BACKUP_TARGET_DIR + BACKUP_KEY
are set, deliberately not run at startup (a just-power-cut booth shouldn't write
to a possibly-unmounted disk).
- openRawDb() added to @parking/db/testing (open a file without migrating, for
restore-verification tests).
BACKUP_KEY is deliberately SEPARATE from EVENT_SIGNING_KEY (independent rotation;
backups travel, the signing key shouldn't). SMB/NFS work as mount paths; SFTP +
admin UI + restore runbook are deferred slices. Tests: round-trip byte-identical,
GCM tamper/wrong-key fail, short-key rejected, scratch cleaned, route auth/RBAC +
409. build/lint/test green (212 server tests). Wiki + open-question #5 updated.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Xcm6ikLgGoCxxHrxtjkk5V
New concept page backup-recovery.md resolving the design half of open-question #5.
Driving scenario: a stolen/destroyed PC whose LUKS+TPM disk is unrecoverable by
design — recovery stands up a NEW PC, restores a backup, and keeps signing the
SAME chain.
Settled: admin-driven encrypted full-DB backup (SQLite online-backup/VACUUM INTO,
snapshots included) to local/USB, SMB/NFS, or SFTP targets; manual button + an
in-process daily timer; keep-last-N + dailies retention; restore is admin-only /
out-of-band (operator-adversary surface). A restored copy must still verifyChain.
Key custody (the load-bearing decision, bears on #6): three independent keys —
EVENT_SIGNING_KEY kept an extractable, escrowed software key DECOUPLED from the
TPM so the ledger survives total hardware loss (the conscious trade: a TPM-sealed
signing key would be unforgeable but permanently unverifiable after the machine
dies); a NEW dedicated park_buzi_backup_key in Komodo for backup encryption,
separate from the signing key; the LUKS/TPM disk key, appliance-only and
deliberately non-recoverable. Keys are never inside the backup they unlock.
Updated open-questions #5 (design SETTLED) + #10 note; disk-os-hardening deploy
runbook (why the signing key is not sealed + park_buzi_backup_key); index catalog
+ concept count. Design only — not yet built.

Adopt Komodo Periphery (over the NetBird mesh) as the booth fleet control plane,
superseding SSH-and-booth.sh. The booth runs the SAME compose files; Komodo Core
drives them remotely. booth.sh is demoted to a break-glass local fallback.
- komodo/resources.toml mirrors the working park-buzi Stack (built by hand in the
Core UI, then exported to TOML — field names match the running v2.2). Stack-only:
servers are created by the agent onboarding OUTBOUND (one-time onboarding key →
Periphery self-registers, auto-rotating keys, booth opens no inbound port), so
there is no [[server]] block. Per-booth secrets via [[...]] refs to Core's store.
- komodo/README.md + .env.komodo.example document the flow and the hard rules
(no webhook; onboarding/outbound/mesh-only; per-booth unique secrets; never
down -v the ledger volume).
- wiki/decisions/fleet-deployment-komodo.md records the decision + threat-model
analysis (Periphery is a root agent → mesh-bound; EVENT_SIGNING_KEY-in-Core is a
fraud-root blast radius until ATECC608 signs; Core is now Tier-0; GPL-3.0 is fine
as external ops tooling). container-deployment reframed (booth.sh = fallback);
index + log updated.
Verified end-to-end against a real booth (park-buzi): onboarded OK, Stack deployed,
all containers green, admin seeded.

The dev box runs vision as bare `uv run uvicorn`, and a plain uv run/uv sync
re-resolves the venv to the lockfile DEFAULTS, stripping fast-alpr/onnxruntime.
So after any `pnpm dev` real ANPR silently degraded to "snapshot, no plate"
(diagnosed 2026-06-25: real reads through 06-22, venv frozen lean since 06-19,
no other env with fast_alpr). The BOOTH was never affected — it runs the Docker
image, which bakes `uv sync --frozen --extra alpr` at build (immutable, weights
pre-warmed); a booth ModuleNotFoundError is a STALE image (fix: booth.sh update).
Vision package.json dev/start/recognize now run `uv sync --extra alpr &&` first
so pnpm dev is self-healing; added a dev:stub escape hatch for a lean run.
Documented in wiki/decisions/vision-service-packaging.md ("Two runtimes, one
fragile") + a log entry.

New concepts/printer-usb-transport.md (the seam, usblp char device,
reachability-only status, threat model). open-questions #14: confirm the
on-site printer is USB and bake the usblp + udev write-access rule into the
appliance image (provisioning, not app code; unverified on hardware). Updated

actions/upload-artifact@v4's backend fails on the Gitea runner (Upload installers
step errored). Mirror release.yml's proven path instead: curl + the built-in token
to the Releases API, into a ROLLING per-branch prerelease (tag desktop-<branch>,
deleted+recreated each push). Installers renamed space-free
(parking-desktop-<branch>-<sha>.{deb,AppImage}). Signed v* releases unchanged.

createUpdaterArtifacts:true (for release.yml's .sig signing) makes `tauri build`
demand TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY and fail without it — even though the .deb/.AppImage
built fine. Override it off for the unsigned per-commit build via
--config '{"bundle":{"createUpdaterArtifacts":false}}'. release.yml keeps signing.

Self-service profile: any signed-in user edits their OWN fullName/email and
changes their OWN password (proving the current one), without any user:*
permission. New routes PUT /api/auth/profile + /api/auth/password act only on
req.user.sub (cannot touch username/role), CSRF-guarded; SPA screen at /profile
reachable from the header username chip. email added to the session view +
SessionUser. 7 tests (routes/profile.test.ts); 148 server tests green.
Desktop in CI: new .gitea/workflows/build-desktop.yml builds .deb + .AppImage
on every push to dev/main and uploads them as unsigned workflow artifacts
(per-commit test build). Signed/versioned release stays on release.yml (tag v*).

New wiki/decisions/appliance-provisioning.md: the hardware-verified step-by-step for
provisioning a booth PC (Dell OptiPlex 7070, i5-8500, discrete Nuvoton TPM 2.0) from
factory Windows to a hardened Ubuntu 26.04 LTS appliance. Every command was run on the
first real unit (2026-06-23). Captures the firmware-specific gotchas: Ventoy → 0x1A under
Secure Boot (flash ISO directly); the 7070 BIOS can't view db (verify via live USB); the
installer's hardware-backed encryption fails with PCR_UNUSABLE/dbt (use passphrase LUKS +
manual systemd-cryptenroll PCR-7 seal); GRUB password must be edit-only (--unrestricted)
to keep unattended boot.
OS hardening on unit 1 is COMPLETE + verified: LUKS FDE + TPM auto-unlock (PCR 7,
unattended) + Secure Boot (Deployed) + GRUB edit-lock (closes the init=/bin/bash root-shell
hole that PCR-7 sealing does not cover). Resolves the implementation half of
open-questions #12 for unit 1.
Cross-linked from disk-os-hardening; index + log updated. Still TODO on the box: Docker +
run the stack.

Containerize the two non-desktop apps for the booth appliance. The desktop app stays
on its own tag-only release.yml.
- apps/server/Dockerfile: multi-stage node:22-alpine. `pnpm deploy --legacy --prod`
(NOT prune — the monorepo native better-sqlite3 won't resolve under a root prune)
yields a self-contained bundle; build stage adds node-gyp toolchain, runtime adds
libstdc++; non-root, healthcheck. Migrates the mounted DB on boot via a drizzle-kit-
free runtime migrator (packages/db/scripts/migrate-runtime.mjs) — drizzle-kit is a
devDep, pruned from prod.
- apps/server/src/static-spa.ts: Fastify serves the built React SPA (one container
serves API + UI). GET-only fallback to index.html, excludes /api + /health so it never
shadows the backend; a no-op in dev (no dist). Registered last in server.ts.
- apps/vision/Dockerfile: uv base, --extra alpr, model weights PRE-WARMED into the image
as the runtime user so fast_alpr boots offline (0 downloads at runtime). Engine env-
selected (VISION_RECOGNIZER stub|fast_alpr).
- Branch-aware: docker-compose.yml (base) + .dev.yml (build local, stub, ports) +
.prod.yml (pull pinned, fast_alpr, vision internal, restart always); REGISTRY/TAG from
env so a branch deploy pulls that branch's image.
- .gitea/workflows/build-images.yml: on push to dev/main, run the full turbo build+lint+
test gate, then buildx push both images to git.infra.msai.al/mca/parking_solution with
branch + branch-<sha> tags (registry cache; optional Komodo webhook behind KOMODO_ENABLED).
- .dockerignore excludes **/parking.sqlite* so the signed ledger is NEVER baked.
Verified locally (Docker 29): server image migrates + serves API+SPA (/health 200, /
+ /booth HTML, /api/nope JSON 404, no sqlite outside /data); vision image boots fast_alpr
with 0 runtime downloads; compose stack healthy with server→vision over the private network.

Point the Tauri updater at the real self-hosted Gitea "latest release" path:
https://git.infra.msai.al/mca/parking_solution/releases/latest/download/latest.json
— redirects to the newest tag's latest.json published by release.yml. Verified
against tauri-plugin-updater: it GETs the endpoint (200 + manifest / 204 = up to
date) and reads platforms.linux-x86_64.{signature,url}.
Document the desktop WS origin: the Tauri window loads from tauri://localhost
(Linux may also send http://tauri.localhost), which is NOT same-origin with the
backend, so WS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS must include both or the live feed won't connect.
Added both to apps/server/.env.example.
Updated the as-built in wiki/decisions/desktop-shell-tauri.md. Also carries an
unrelated plans.namePlaceholder copy tweak already in the tree. turbo build lint
14/14 green.

Add apps/desktop, a thin Tauri v2 shell wrapping the SAME @parking/web SPA so
the desktop and browser UIs never drift: dev loads the Vite dev server (HMR),
prod bundles the web app's dist/. No business logic in the shell (device/auth/
ledger stay in @parking/server); deny-by-default capabilities.
apps/web (single UI source of truth):
- lib/origin.ts: centralize the backend origin (API_BASE/apiUrl/wsUrl from
VITE_API_BASE); no-op in the browser, lets the desktop build target Fastify.
- lib/kiosk.ts: block the right-click context menu in PROD only (dev keeps it +
devtools).
- lib/desktop-updater.ts: prompt-on-update auto-update (no-op in browser/offline)
→ downloadAndInstall + relaunch; i18n update.* keys (sq+en).
- .env.production: VITE_API_BASE wired to the Fastify origin for the bundle.
Desktop:
- window starts maximized (not fullscreen — operator keeps OS access).
- auto-update via tauri-plugin-updater + -process; self-hosted endpoint is a
PLACEHOLDER to fill in. Updater keypair: pubkey embedded in tauri.conf.json;
private key + password kept OUTSIDE the repo (~/.parking-updater-keys) and as
TAURI_SIGNING_* build secrets.
- Turbo build is a no-op; the real signed bundle is `pnpm --filter
@parking/desktop bundle` (verified → .deb/.rpm/.AppImage + .sig signatures).
Verified: cargo check clean; turbo run build lint 14/14 green; i18n parity holds;
no key/sig/bundle artifacts in the repo.
Wiki (security + desktop analysis recorded alongside):
- new concepts/tpm.md (TPM 2.0: how it works, sealed-LUKS auto-unlock + non-
extractable signing key, limits — live-root, bus-sniff — TPM-vs-ATECC608 by
platform).
- new decisions/desktop-shell-tauri.md (Tauri v2 over Electron; best-case Ubuntu
26.04 LTS, worst-case Windows+WSL → kiosk browser; full as-built).

Skeleton of the host-side vision service per the packaging decision: a Python/FastAPI
app at apps/vision/, uv-managed, wired into the Turbo graph via a thin package.json
shim (dev/lint/test/build → uv/uvicorn/ruff/pytest). A per-package turbo.json sets
build outputs [] so the no-op build is warning-free.
Endpoints: GET /health (readiness + model version) and POST /analyze (raw
octet-stream body, so Node POSTs Snapshot.bytes directly; empty→400, oversize→413,
recognizer-not-ready→503). The recognizer is a Protocol with a StubRecognizer (no
models, boots/tests offline — the dev/CI default) and a FastAlprRecognizer (the real
MIT YOLOv9+CCT/ONNX stack, lazily imported; missing models ⇒ ready=False, not a crash)
— the device-adapter pattern applied to the model. fast-alpr + onnxruntime are an
optional `alpr` extra, so `uv sync` needs no model download.
Verified: turbo run lint|test|build includes @parking/vision and stays green; uv run
mypy strict-clean; uvicorn boots and serves /health + /analyze live; pnpm workspace
6→7. Not built yet: the Node VisionClient adapter, a Dockerfile + model fetch, and
Job 2 (vehicle verification). Updates the packaging decision (As-scaffolded) + log.

Settle WHERE the host-side ANPR service lives and how it joins the build: in this
monorepo at apps/vision/ (not a separate repo), still a separate OS process called
over localhost HTTP, wired into the Turbo graph via a thin package.json shim whose
scripts shell to Python tooling (uv/uvicorn/ruff/pytest). Co-located source honors the
vision-service runtime+license isolation decision (AGPL reach is a linking boundary,
not a folder); the fast-alpr MIT baseline removes most of the split-repo pressure
anyway. New page vision-service-packaging; updates vision-service, opencv-anpr-service,
the CLAUDE.md layout, index, log. Not built yet — packaging decision only.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Xcm6ikLgGoCxxHrxtjkk5V
Research note from the recognizer-options query. fast-alpr v0.4.0 (MIT) — a swappable
YOLOv9-detector + CCT-OCR pipeline on ONNX Runtime, CPU-only and offline — fits the
decided vision-service architecture and is MIT end-to-end (code + published weights),
so the ANPR path may not need the scoped AGPL exception. Flags the open caveats:
verify model-weight provenance, and benchmark AL-plate accuracy (default global vs.
the 40+ country EU model). fast-alpr is plate-only, so the vehicle-verification job
stays ours to build. Decision kept open. Updates opencv-anpr-service (new "Recognizer
evaluation" section + licensing nuance), vision-service (open/next), index, log.

Add a third data stream (app_logs), distinct from the signed ledger and device
telemetry, for operational/diagnostic logs — an offline appliance has no Sentry to
ship to, so the host is the log store.
Backend: a pino stream tees warn/error/fatal into app_logs (info/debug stay
stdout-only) with no call-site change; the DB is built before Fastify so the logger
has its sink. Frontend (lib/logger.ts): ships failed API requests (minus 401 churn),
window.onerror, unhandledrejection, and a top-level React ErrorBoundary; console
warn/error forwarded only at debug/trace. Batched/throttled POST, sendBeacon on
pagehide, loop-safe (never logs the /api/logs call), best-effort everywhere.
POST /api/logs (any signed-in user, CSRF, tolerant) + GET /api/logs gated by a new
log:read permission (new `log` RBAC resource; admin holds it). Retention: pruned by
age + row cap, hourly + at startup. UI: a Logs screen under /setup (filter
level/source/since, expand to context+stack), sq+en. Migration 0009_app_logs.
Verified end-to-end via app.inject: login -> POST 204 -> GET 200 with the record;
backend warn/error persisted, info dropped; non-admin GET 403 / POST 204.

The "permit/lejet" feature is really a subscription. Full rename of the
mutable master data, plus a recurring monthly price.
- DB (migration 0004, data-preserving ALTER RENAME): permits→subscriptions,
permit_credentials/_plates→subscription_*, sessions.permit_id→subscription_id.
- Pricing: per-subscription priceMinor + period(monthly) + currency, with a
site default (site_config.subscription_monthly_price_minor) pre-filling the form.
- Server: subscription-flow.ts (SubscriptionFlow), routes/subscriptions.ts
(/api/subscriptions). Web: SubscriptionManager, route, i18n (sq Abonimet/en).
- The signed ledger `permitId` payload is intentionally kept — immutable
hash-chained history; renaming it would break verification of past events.
Deferred (wiki notes): fee collection into the ledger/shift (a shift-attributed
payment), LPR/ANPR plate source, time-of-day access windows (overnight subscriber).
Also carries the device-footer UI surface (api DeviceStatus, router mount,
i18n devices) due to shared-file overlap with the preceding footer commit.
Verified end-to-end on a fresh DB and migration on a live-DB copy (sessions
preserved). Live DB migrated. Full monorepo builds clean.

A parking lot is one pool of spaces with a flexible set of entry/exit
points — no "lane". Direction is a property of each RELAY inside an access
controller; readers/cameras bind to a controller relay and inherit it.
Schema:
- drop `lane` from ledger_events, device_events, sessions
- rename lane_devices -> devices (no lane/direction columns)
- access config.relays=[{relay,direction,button?}]; reader/camera
config.controllerId+relay binding
- fresh 0000_baseline migration (history reset; dev data was throwaway)
Signed ledger:
- remove `lane` from canonicalize(); bump signer keyId sw-hmac-v1 -> v2
(v1 events won't verify under v2 — intentional, gated per-event by keyId)
Server:
- new device-resolve.ts (replaces lane-map.ts): relayForButton,
relayForDevice, firstRelayByDirection, devicesByDirection
- entry-flow: button terminal -> its relay; exit/permit: reader's bound
relay; dispatcher resolves the bound relay + inherited direction
- camera snapshots fire by direction site-wide, async, never block open
- DeviceConfig widened to nested JSON for relays[]
Web:
- wizard: no lane selector; add controllers (relay map + entry-button
terminal) first, then bind readers/cameras/printers to a controller relay
Wiki: new entry-exit-points.md (replaces lane-direction); reworked
entry-exit-readers, parking-session, first-run-setup, device-registry,
append-only-event-chain, device-events; removed stale lane/LaneMap mentions.
Correction before schema work: the events table conflated the anti-fraud
business ledger with device telemetry. Decision: ledger_events (signed,
chained, reconciled) holds only business facts; device_events (unsigned,
prunable) holds relay/printer/camera/reader/input telemetry. A raw button
press is telemetry; the entry flow mints a signed vehicle_entry. Drops
input_received-as-signed-event.
New: decisions/event-streams-split, concepts/device-events; updated
append-only-event-chain, index, log.
Neither UHPPOTE nor ZKTeco is used — the Dingtian relay controller was chosen
and verified. Remove their code and re-scope the wiki.
Code:
- delete access-uhppote.ts, uhppoted.d.ts, access.ts (zkteco/esp32-relay stubs),
and the three uhppote-*.mjs hardware test scripts.
- remove the `uhppoted` npm dependency from @parking/devices and @parking/server.
- unregister uhppote/zkteco/esp32-relay from the driver registry; drop their
exports. Catalog access drivers = dingtian only. Build green (5/5).
- refresh now-stale example comments (registry/interfaces/setup/api) to use
current examples; keep the two "UHPPOTE blocker" references that explain why
the precondition capability exists.
Wiki (kept pages, re-scoped):
- uhppote-controller, zkteco-controller -> rejected/historical with callouts;
uhppote-vs-esp32 -> historical (detection-vs-prevention lens still useful).
- re-point all "current device" framing (standing-decisions, bom, overview,
open-questions, device-registry, device-discovery, index) to dingtian-relay.
- transferable concepts (network-isolation, event-log-ingestion, barrier-not-a-
door, threat-model) untouched. Raw source immutable. Links lint clean.
The Dingtian board's inputs are independent of its relays (configurable), so a
button on an input can report to the host WITHOUT auto-firing a relay — solving
the access-controller-button-flow blocker the UHPPOTE/ZKTeco couldn't.
packages/devices:
- access-dingtian.ts: `dingtian` access driver implementing AccessControlDevice
(relay pulse/latch via UDP string protocol :60001), InputDevice (read inputs +
poll-based press/release events, active-LOW), and the new PreconditionDevice.
- PreconditionDevice capability on the interface: a device can report config it
requires for parking and optionally fix it. Dingtian checks input_link_relay
via the HTTP config API and can disable it.
- httpPort config field — the web/config API port is separate from UDP control
(this unit uses 8080, not the default 80).
- Register dingtian; export driver objects from the package.
Verified on real hardware (DT-R004 @ 10.0.10.172): status read, relay pulse,
input events; disabled input_link_relay via the driver, then confirmed pressing
inputs fires NO relay (0000) — host-in-the-loop entry works.
Config-write gotcha recorded: config_set.cgi requires "command":"setconfig"
injected after "status" (GET omits it) or the POST silently no-ops.
apps/server/scripts/dingtian-test.mjs: status / watch / pulse hardware test.
wiki: dingtian-relay verified; button-flow marked RESOLVED; index + log.
- dingtian-relay: relay+input controller (4ch on hand). Inputs are decoupled
from relays (configurable via input_link_relay) — solves the
access-controller-button-flow blocker the UHPPOTE couldn't. Full protocol from
the SDK (UDP string control :60001, `00` status parse, input_link_url push,
multicast discovery). Driver + hardware test still to build.
- dingtian-vs-mqtt: use direct HTTP/UDP now; MQTT skipped (broker = extra infra
+ failure mode + overkill at one-host/few-devices scale) but kept for later
multi-lane scale.
- autonomous-direction: record the roadmap to fully unmanned (no booth) and how
it reshapes the threat model (operator-fraud -> unattended-machine threats),
makes host-in-the-loop entry mandatory, and raises fail-state stakes.
- threat-model: note the unmanned shift. index + log.
gitignore the vendor SDK (dingtian/, 71MB of binaries/examples) — reference
only, protocol captured in the wiki.
Brought up the real UHPPOTE controller (serial 225088491, fw 09120) end to end
and recorded a procurement-level blocker.
Verified on hardware:
- discovery (LAN scan), host-commanded openDoor on doors 1 & 2 (physically
actuated; reason="remote open door"), and live button capture
(reason="push button ok").
Driver/networking fixes (packages/devices/src/drivers/access-uhppote.ts):
- broadcast to subnet-directed address (lib doesn't enable SO_BROADCAST for the
global 255.255.255.255 -> EACCES);
- Config broadcast must match the target's subnet for unicast reply routing
(fixes the health-check timeout: 5s -> 24ms ready);
- discover across all local subnets, dedupe by serial;
- serialize all controller I/O (concurrent calls collided on UDP :60001).
Server/UX:
- load .env via node --env-file-if-exists (vars weren't being read before);
- SETUP_AUTH_BYPASS hardened: env-gated, dev + loopback only, fails closed
otherwise; surfaced as catalog.authBypass so the wizard drops the token field;
- .env.example documents all vars; inline favicon stops a 404.
- apps/server/scripts/: uhppote-listen (live events, restores prior listener)
and uhppote-relay (guarded door-open test).
BLOCKER (wiki/decisions/access-controller-button-flow.md): the controller's
push-button input auto-opens the relay in firmware with no report-without-open
mode, so ticket-first entry (button -> print -> open, fail-closed) is impossible
as wired. UHPPOTE can't do it on that input; ZKTeco *might* via a programmable
aux input + PULL SDK but that's unverified and needs a new driver. Entry-lane
hardware decision paused to focus on the business side.
wiki: access-controller-button-flow (blocker), zkteco-controller (stub +
assessment), uhppote-controller callout, index + log.
- open-questions #7: symmetric vs. asymmetric JWT signing key (from the
commit security review). Prefer RS256/EdDSA so verifying hosts hold only a
public key — mirrors the ATECC608 / challenge-response "public key only"
property. Decide before multi-host/multi-lane deployment.
- Mark esp32-custom-controller status: deferred per decision not to build
device-level auth now; access control stays on UHPPOTE + network isolation
(noted in open-questions #6).
- local-jwt-auth: document hardened secret handling + 8h expiry and the
asymmetric-key pointer.
- Update index.md and append a log.md entry.
Turborepo (pnpm workspaces) with all dependencies pinned to latest

Architecture constraints from the design wiki are encoded in the scaffold:
append-only hash-chained + signed event log, device-agnostic adapters,
"a barrier is not a door" (relay expresses intent only), fully-local
offline-first auth.
wiki/ is an LLM-maintained Obsidian knowledge base (28 pages) ingested
from the architecture & design notes, with its own maintenance schema.
Verified: pnpm install, full turbo build (5/5), server boots and serves
/health, drizzle-kit generates the initial migration.
