docs: roadmap v3 — incorporate review feedback (F11-F13, Phase E)

Review-driven additions:

- F11 added (silent UI breakage from missing/un-COPY'd postcss.config.mjs;
  4 repos hit this tonight: notes dff459e, jarvis_jr 36f6bc1,
  clock a308c6444, local_memory_gpt 07cdf6b)
- F12 added (healthcheck localhost → IPv6 false-fail; jarvis_jr incident)
- F13 added (enumerated COPY drift from filesystem; root cause of F11b)

Structural changes:
- New A8 (config-file COPY audit + glob pattern decision)
- New A9 (healthcheck IPv4 canonicalization)
- New A0-V verification gate (build Gitea path before optimizing)
- New § 2.5 canonical decisions (Alpine + ARG BASE_IMAGE override,
  127.0.0.1, --lockfile=false pending ADR)
- New § 7.5 canonical web Dockerfile (was missing, where F11 lives)
- New § 7.6 docker-doctor.sh skeleton
- New Phase E (docker-doctor.sh CI lint as durable insurance)
- B7 promoted from Phase D to Phase B proper (drift compounds)
- B4 husky hook extended to also block .tgz and .bak
- A0-1 env-var expansion chain explicitly documented
- A2-3 verification command corrected (docker buildx du, not docker history)
- Pilot order inverted: clock first (web + backend), then peakpulse
- C9 smoke test added (CSS bundle > 50 KB, F11 guard)
- 4 new risk-register rows for F11/F12/F13/BASE_IMAGE drift

## 0. Pre-flight audit findings (2026-05-27)
A read-only audit of the two pilot repos surfaced **10 concrete bugs/gaps**
that contradict the casual narrative that "Gitea-registry is the default and
`docker-prep.sh` is the fallback." The actual state is closer to the inverse:
A read-only audit of pilot repos + lessons from recent live incidents surfaced
**13 concrete bugs/gaps**. The actual state of the ecosystem is closer to the
inverse of the casual narrative: tarballs are the de facto default, the
Gitea-registry path is partially wired, and there is a separate class of
"build green, app broken" silent failures (F11F13) that the speed-focused
plan needs to address first.
| # | Finding | Location | Severity |
|---|---|---|---|
| F1 | `pnpm-lock.yaml` is in `.dockerignore` — any lockfile-based optimization is blocked until removed | `peakpulse/.dockerignore`, `clock/.dockerignore` | **High** |
| F2 | `pnpm-workspace.yaml` references sibling `../learning_ai_common_plat/packages/*``--frozen-lockfile` inside Docker will fail unless workspace is flattened or sibling tree is copied | `peakpulse/pnpm-workspace.yaml`, `clock/pnpm-workspace.yaml` | **High** |
| F3 | `peakpulse/.npmrc.docker` is tarball-only (no `@bytelyst:registry=…` line) — the "Gitea-registry" path doesn't actually work in this repo today | `peakpulse/.npmrc.docker` | **High** |
| F4 | `clock/.npmrc.docker` hardcodes `http://localhost:3300` — from inside a Docker container `localhost` is the container itself, not the host registry | `clock/.npmrc.docker` | **High** |
| F5 | `clock/backend/Dockerfile` has neither `ARG GITEA_NPM_HOST` nor a BuildKit secret mount — it is wholly dependent on `.docker-deps/` having been pre-populated | `clock/backend/Dockerfile` | High |
| F6 | `clock/web/Dockerfile` accepts `ARG GITEA_NPM_HOST` but never uses it and has no `--mount=type=secret` — passing the arg is a no-op | `clock/web/Dockerfile` | Medium |
| F7 | `peakpulse/docker-compose.yml` does not pass `GITEA_NPM_HOST` build arg or declare `secrets:` block, so `docker compose build` cannot use the Gitea path | `peakpulse/docker-compose.yml` | Medium |
| F8 | `COPY .docker-deps/` is unconditional in every backend Dockerfile — every build requires either `docker-prep.sh` to have run OR an empty `.docker-deps/` dir to pre-exist | both repos | Medium |
| F1 | `pnpm-lock.yaml` is in `.dockerignore` — any lockfile-based optimization is blocked until removed | `peakpulse/.dockerignore`, `clock/.dockerignore` | High |
| F2 | `pnpm-workspace.yaml` references sibling `../learning_ai_common_plat/packages/*``--frozen-lockfile` inside Docker will fail unless workspace is flattened or sibling tree is copied | both pilots | High |

| F8 | `COPY .docker-deps/` is unconditional in every backend Dockerfile — every build requires `docker-prep.sh` to have run OR an empty `.docker-deps/` dir to pre-exist | both repos | Medium |
| F9 | `npm install -g pnpm@10.6.5` runs on every build (no `corepack`) — 510 s overhead, no pinning to `packageManager` field | all four Dockerfiles | Low |
| F10 | No BuildKit `--mount=type=cache` for pnpm store — cold install on every rebuild even when deps unchanged | all four Dockerfiles | High (the main speed win) |

| **F11** | **Build-time config file missing from repo or not COPY'd in Dockerfile causes silent UI breakage. Symptom: `next build` succeeds, container is "healthy", but CSS bundle is ~33 KB (only `@font-face`) and all Tailwind classes are absent → UI renders unstyled.** Two sub-bugs: (a) `postcss.config.mjs` missing entirely while `@tailwindcss/postcss` is in `package.json` (NoteLett, JarvisJr fixes `dff459e`, `36f6bc1`); (b) file exists but Dockerfile never COPYs it (Clock, LocalMemGPT fixes `a308c6444`, `07cdf6b`). | `*/web/Dockerfile`, `*/web/postcss.config.*` | **High** |
| **F12** | **Healthcheck uses `localhost`, resolves to IPv6 `::1`, false-fails.** Backend listens on `0.0.0.0` (IPv4 only). `wget --spider http://localhost:.../health` hits `::1`, connection refused, container marked "unhealthy", `web` service won't start due to `depends_on: condition: service_healthy`. Incident: `learning_ai_jarvis_jr/docker-compose.yml`. | every `docker-compose*.yml` healthcheck | **Medium** |
| **F13** | **Enumerated `COPY web/foo ./foo` pattern drifts from filesystem.** New config file added to repo but Dockerfile's enumerated COPY list isn't updated. Build succeeds silently with the file absent; behavior diverges from local dev. Root cause of F11(b). | every Dockerfile using enumerated COPY | **Medium** |
**Implication:** the original plan to "switch to `--frozen-lockfile` + Gitea
registry" requires two upstream fixes first (F1, F2). The roadmap below
accounts for that.
**Implications:**
- The original "switch to `--frozen-lockfile` + Gitea registry" plan requires
two upstream fixes first (F1, F2).
- F11F13 mean **correctness fixes must precede speed fixes**, otherwise we
ship faster builds of broken apps.
- A linter (Phase E `docker-doctor.sh`) is the durable insurance against
F11/F13 recurrence — they are silent in CI today.

## 3. Phase A — Build speed + path correctness
## 2.5 Canonical decisions
Order matters: A0 must precede A1A5 (you can't enable a path that doesn't work).
Decisions taken now to avoid contradictions later in the doc:
### A0. Make the Gitea-registry path actually work (peakpulse + clock)
- **Base image:** `node:22-alpine` is canonical. For repos blocked by the
corporate proxy's Alpine SSL interception (currently only
`learning_ai_notes`), the Dockerfile MUST expose:
```dockerfile
ARG BASE_IMAGE=node:22-alpine
FROM ${BASE_IMAGE} AS builder
```
Override per-repo via `--build-arg BASE_IMAGE=node:22-slim`. Document the
override in the repo's `AGENTS.md`.
- **Healthcheck host:** `127.0.0.1` (NOT `localhost`) in every
`docker-compose*.yml` `test:` block. See F12.
- **Lockfile mode in Docker:** `--lockfile=false` for now. `--frozen-lockfile`
is blocked on the A3 ADR (F2).
---
## 3. Phase A — Correctness + build speed + path correctness
Order matters: A0 must precede A1+ (you can't optimize a path that doesn't
work), and A8+A9 (correctness) must land before measuring speed wins.
### A0. Make the Gitea-registry path actually work (clock + peakpulse)
- [ ] **A0-1.** Standardize `.npmrc.docker` to use a templated host so it works on host (`localhost`) and inside Docker (`host.docker.internal`):
```
@bytelyst:registry=http://${GITEA_NPM_HOST}:3300/api/packages/learning_ai_user/npm/
//${GITEA_NPM_HOST}:3300/api/packages/learning_ai_user/npm/:_authToken=${GITEA_NPM_TOKEN}
strict-ssl=false
auto-install-peers=true
```
- [ ] **A0-2.** Remove `pnpm-lock.yaml` from `.dockerignore` in both repos (fixes F1)
> **⚠️ Env-var expansion chain:** pnpm expands `${VAR}` in `.npmrc` at read
> time using the current process environment (see [pnpm npmrc docs][pnpm-npmrc]).
> That means the Dockerfile MUST do `ARG GITEA_NPM_HOST``ENV GITEA_NPM_HOST=$GITEA_NPM_HOST`
> **before** the `pnpm install` RUN line, AND the `GITEA_NPM_TOKEN` must be
> exported from the BuildKit secret mount inside the same `RUN` (since secrets
> don't persist as env across layers).

Confirm `docker compose build --no-cache` succeeds end-to-end pulling from Gitea. Only proceed to A1 once this is green. Don't conflate "make it work" with "make it fast" in one commit.

### A8. Config-file COPY audit & canonical pattern (addresses F11, F13)
- [ ] **A8-1.** For every Dockerfile in scope, list all build-time files present in the surface directory (`web/` or `backend/`) that affect the build:
- `postcss.config.{js,mjs,cjs,ts}`
- `tailwind.config.{js,mjs,cjs,ts}`
- `next.config.{js,mjs,ts}`
- `tsconfig*.json`
- `package.json`
- `.npmrc.docker`, `.npmrc`
- `babel.config.*` (if present)
- `drizzle.config.*` (if present)
- `vitest.config.*` (only if the build needs it)
Verify each is COPY'd in the Dockerfile.
- [ ] **A8-2.** Choose canonical COPY pattern. **Decision: middle-ground glob** for web surfaces:
```dockerfile
COPY web/*.{json,ts,mjs,js,cjs} ./
COPY web/public/ ./public/
COPY web/src/ ./src/
```
Trade-off: glob picks up unintended root-level files if any are added later, but **dramatically reduces F11/F13 risk**. Backend surfaces with few root config files can keep enumerated COPY (lower risk surface).
- [ ] **A8-3.** Repo-by-repo migration: replace enumerated `COPY web/foo ./foo` with the glob pattern; verify the resulting image has all expected files via `docker run --rm <img> ls -la`.
### A9. Healthcheck canonicalization (addresses F12)
- [ ] **A9-1.** Replace `localhost` with `127.0.0.1` in every `docker-compose*.yml` healthcheck `test:` block. Sweep with:
```
rg -l 'http://localhost' --glob 'docker-compose*.yml'
```
- [ ] **A9-2.** Standardize healthcheck shape:
- **Alpine-based images:**
```yaml
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD-SHELL", "wget -q --spider http://127.0.0.1:${PORT}/health || exit 1"]
interval: 30s
timeout: 5s
retries: 3
start_period: 10s
```
- **Slim/Debian images** (`wget` not always present, but `node` is):
```yaml
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD-SHELL", "node -e \"fetch('http://127.0.0.1:${PORT}/health').then(r=>process.exit(r.ok?0:1)).catch(()=>process.exit(1))\""]
```
- [ ] **A9-3.** Add `start_period` (10s minimum) — prevents flaky "container started but app not yet listening" false-negatives.

## 8. Open questions (numbered TODOs, not blockers)
## 8. Phase E — Observability / lint (NEW)
1. **Shared pnpm cache volume?** Should the BuildKit pnpm store cache be shared
across all 13 repos via a named Docker volume (`pnpm-store`) instead of
per-repo BuildKit caches keyed by `id=pnpm`? (BuildKit caches are already
shared by `id=` — verify before adding volume complexity.)
2. **Custom base image?** Publish `bytelyst/node-pnpm:22` with pnpm
pre-installed to skip the corepack step entirely. Cost: maintenance of a
base image; benefit: ~5 s/build × 13 repos × N builds/day.
3. **CI hostname?** Gitea Actions runs builds with `--add-host` to reach the
registry. Is `host.docker.internal:host-gateway` portable to Linux CI
runners, or do we need a CI-specific Dockerfile variant?
4. **Canonical script home?** `docker-prep.sh` is currently per-repo with
drift. Move to `learning_ai_common_plat/scripts/docker-prep.template.sh`
with a `sync-docker-prep.sh` (mirrors `.npmrc` template pattern)?
5. **Multi-platform builds?** Any need for `linux/amd64` + `linux/arm64`
images? If yes, BuildKit cache mounts interact awkwardly with `buildx`
`--platform`. Defer to separate roadmap.
6. **Workspace flattening?** Could we eliminate the
`../learning_ai_common_plat/packages/*` workspace entry inside Docker by
building with a flattened `pnpm-workspace.yaml` (only local `backend/`)?
This unlocks `--frozen-lockfile`. Requires lockfile regeneration step.
New phase: `docker-doctor.sh` (see § 7.6 skeleton) as durable insurance
against tonight's-class silent bugs (F11, F12, F13).
- [ ] **E1.** Land `docker-doctor.sh` in `learning_ai_common_plat/scripts/` (canonical)
- [ ] **E2.** Provide a thin per-repo wrapper at `scripts/docker-doctor.sh` that calls the canonical
- [ ] **E3.** Wire into CI: run on PRs touching `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose*.yml`, `.dockerignore`, `.npmrc.docker`
- [ ] **E4.** Wire into pre-commit hook (warning-only at first, error after 2 weeks)
- [ ] **E5.** Document checks in `learning_ai_common_plat/AI.dev/SKILLS/docker-doctor.md`
- [ ] **E6.** Add `make docker-doctor` target to each pilot repo
Checks implemented:
| Check | Addresses | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Every `web/*.config.*` file is COPY'd | F11, F13 | Error |
| `docker-compose.yml` healthcheck uses `127.0.0.1` | F12 | Error |
| `.npmrc.docker` uses `${GITEA_NPM_HOST}` placeholder | F4 | Error |
| `.dockerignore` doesn't exclude `pnpm-lock.yaml` | F1 | Warn (until A3 ADR lands) |
| Base image is on approved list | Canonical decision | Error |
| `.docker-deps/` and `*.bak` in `.gitignore` | B3 | Error |

## 9. Execution order
## 9. Open questions (numbered TODOs, not blockers)
1. **Now (this commit):** roadmap doc lands here; sign-off requested.
2. **A0 first** — fix `.npmrc.docker`, `docker-compose.yml`, `.dockerignore` on both pilots. Without this, the Gitea path doesn't work and no measurement is possible.
3. **A1 + A2** on peakpulse backend. Measure. Commit.
4. **A1 + A2** on clock backend, then clock web. Measure. Commit.
5. **A4 + A5 + A6** on all three surfaces. Commit.
6. **A3 ADR** — decide lockfile policy (defer implementation).
7. **A7** — fill in metrics table.
8. **Phase B** — harden `docker-prep.sh` on peakpulse, then mirror to clock.
9. **Phase C** — verification gates C1C7.
10. **Phase D** — scheduled separately, only after § 5 passes.
1. **Shared pnpm cache volume?** BuildKit caches are already shared across
builds by `id=pnpm`. Test whether a named Docker volume adds anything
before adding complexity.
2. **Custom base image?** Publish `bytelyst/node-pnpm:22{alpine,slim}` with
pnpm pre-installed to skip corepack. Cost: image maintenance; benefit: ~5 s/build.
3. **CI hostname?** Verify `host.docker.internal:host-gateway` works in Gitea
Actions Linux runners, or if a CI-specific Dockerfile variant is needed.
4. **Multi-platform builds?** `linux/amd64` + `linux/arm64` interact awkwardly
with cache mounts under `buildx`. Defer to separate roadmap.
5. **Workspace flattening?** Eliminate the `../learning_ai_common_plat/packages/*`
workspace entry inside Docker via a flattened `pnpm-workspace.yaml`.
Unlocks `--frozen-lockfile`. Requires lockfile regeneration step.

## 10. Risk register
## 10. Execution order
1. **Now (this commit):** roadmap doc v3 lands here; sign-off requested.
2. **Phase A0 on `learning_ai_clock`** (web + backend) — pilot order
intentionally inverted vs. v2: web is where F11/F13 incidents lived, and
clock exercises both surface types in one repo. Fix `.npmrc.docker`,
`docker-compose.yml`, `.dockerignore`. Verify **A0-V** (Gitea path works
end-to-end) before any speed work.
3. **A8 + A9 + A1** on clock (correctness before speed). Commit.
4. **A2 + A4 + A5 + A6** on clock. Measure. Commit.
5. **Phase A0 → A6** on `learning_ai_peakpulse` (backend only) as validation
second pass for the simpler case.
6. **A7** — fill in metrics table.
7. **A3 ADR** — decide lockfile policy (defer implementation).
8. **Phase B** — harden `docker-prep.sh` on clock, then promote to canonical
home in common-plat (B7) and sync to peakpulse.
9. **Phase E** — land `docker-doctor.sh`, wire into CI as warning, then error.
10. **Phase C** — verification gates C1C9.
11. **Phase D** — scheduled separately, only after § 5 passes.

## 11. Risk register
| Risk | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Removing `pnpm-lock.yaml` from `.dockerignore` exposes a stale or sibling-aware lockfile that breaks Docker installs | Keep `--lockfile=false` for now (A3 ADR); revisit after F2 resolution |
| BuildKit cache mount on shared CI runners causes cross-build interference | Use distinct `id=` per repo (`id=pnpm-${repo}`) if observed |
| `host.docker.internal` doesn't resolve in Linux Docker | `extra_hosts: ["host.docker.internal:host-gateway"]` (added in A0-4) |
| `host.docker.internal` doesn't resolve in Linux Docker | `extra_hosts: ["host.docker.internal:host-gateway"]` (A0-4) |
| Removing `.docker-deps/` from default builds breaks repos that haven't done A0 yet | Wildcard `COPY .docker-deps*` keeps both paths working during migration |
| `docker-prep.sh` `--force` is misused and `.bak` files get committed | Pre-commit hook (B4) blocks this regardless |
| Corp network blocks `host.docker.internal:3300` | Verify SSH tunnel (`localhost:3300` from host) reaches Gitea; document in operations.md |
| `docker-prep.sh` `--force` is misused and `.bak` files get committed | Pre-commit hook (B4) blocks `.bak`, `.tgz`, rewritten `package.json` |
| Corp network blocks `host.docker.internal:3300` | Verify SSH tunnel reaches Gitea; document in operations.md |
| **F11 regression: build green, app ships with no CSS** | C9 smoke test + Phase E `docker-doctor.sh` check on `web/*.config.*` COPY coverage |
| **F12 regression: healthcheck false-fails on IPv6** | Phase E `docker-doctor.sh` grep for `localhost` in compose files |
| **F13 regression: new config file added, Dockerfile forgotten** | A8-2 glob COPY pattern (root cause fix) + Phase E lint (defense in depth) |
| `BASE_IMAGE` override in `notes` diverges silently from canonical | Phase E check approved list; document override in repo `AGENTS.md` |
