Codeman maintainer 1851d80f3a fix(docker): keep SIGTERM reaching the server, pin root's PATH, probe writability
Three changes to how the Compose container starts as root and drops to
PUID:PGID, each reproduced on Docker 29.1.3 / Compose v5.5.0 with a minimal
image of the same shape as server.Dockerfile.

- cap_add gains KILL. `init: true` makes tini PID 1, and tini stays root while
  the entrypoint drops the server to PUID. Signalling a process of a different
  uid needs CAP_KILL, and `cap_drop: ALL` had removed it, so every `docker
  compose down`/`restart` ended in `[FATAL tini (1)] Unexpected error when
  forwarding signal: 'Operation not permitted'` and the server being SIGKILLed
  instead of running `server.stop()`. Measured: without KILL the trap never
  fires, with it the child logs `GOT SIGTERM`.
- /opt/codeman-cli/bin is appended to PATH, never prepended, and entrypoint.sh
  pins its own PATH to the system directories before its first command. The
  prefix is chowned to the runtime account so sessions can update the agent
  CLIs in place, and the root entrypoint resolved stat/chown/setpriv by bare
  name through it: a `setpriv` planted there by the unprivileged uid ran as
  uid 0 at the next start. The image's full PATH is handed back to the server
  at the exec (`env PATH=...`), since Codeman resolves the CLIs through it.
- The ownership gate becomes a writability probe. A directory owned by neither
  root nor PUID:PGID is no longer refused on ownership alone; it is tested with
  `setpriv --reuid PUID --regid PGID --groups <same groups> test -w`, the exact
  identity the server gets, so a group-writable tree, an ACL or a CIFS/NFS
  mount reporting some unrelated uid all pass, and the refusal names path,
  owner and PUID:PGID. Root-owned directories are still chowned first.

Also: a pre-flight runs the drop before touching anything and, when it fails,
prints the cap_add list the compose file needs, so an out-of-tree compose file
(Unraid's Compose Manager) gets a one-line diagnosis instead of a restart loop;
`--bounding-set -all` is gone, since it is a silent no-op without CAP_SETPCAP;
a root:root Docker socket now produces a warning that Docker cases will not
work rather than silently losing group 0 at the drop; and CODEMAN_ALLOWED_HOSTS
is forwarded from .env with an empty default (documented as a commented entry
in .env.example so the parity test and the updater's env gate both stay quiet).

DevvynandClaude Sonnet 5 c179daf869 fix(docker): re-assert /opt/codeman-cli ownership every start, not just at build
/opt/codeman-cli is chowned to PUID:PGID once, at image build time, from
the PUID/PGID build args. That bake only happens when the image is
actually rebuilt (`docker compose up --build`, which Start-Codeman.sh
always does) — a deployment that runs the compose file directly instead
(Unraid's Compose Manager, a native systemd unit, any plain
`docker compose up`/`restart`) can change PUID/PGID in .env and restart
without ever rebuilding. The container then runs as the NEW uid via
entrypoint's setpriv (Linux needs no /etc/passwd entry to setuid to an
arbitrary number) while the CLI directory is still owned by the OLD one
baked into the image layer — silently breaking the self-update-a-CLI-
in-place fix that directory exists for.

Unlike HOME/CODEMAN_CASES_PATH, this one is pure image content Codeman
itself populated, never host data that might legitimately belong to
someone else, so there is no ownership to be careful about — it is
always correct for it to be owned by whoever the container is about to
run as. Re-assert it unconditionally on every start.

Verified live: built an image with PUID=99/PGID=100, ran it with
PUID=1234/PGID=4321 (no rebuild, simulating a changed .env restarted
directly), confirmed /opt/codeman-cli ends up 1234:4321-owned and is
genuinely writable by the running process.

DevvynandClaude Sonnet 5 ae32daf135 fix(docker): address maintainer review on #377
Two real bugs the review caught, both verified live against a real
build on the Unraid host:

1. entrypoint.sh's chown fired on ANY ownership mismatch, not just a
   directory the daemon itself created root-owned. A host tree
   legitimately owned by some other account - an existing
   CODEMAN_CASES_PATH the README already allows pointing at a normal
   projects directory, or appdata under a different PUID/PGID
   convention than the one in use - got silently recursively re-owned
   with one log line to explain it. Now gated on the target actually
   being root-owned; anything else is a clean refusal naming the
   directory, its owner, and PUID/PGID. Start-Codeman.sh also now
   pre-creates CODEMAN_CASES_PATH the same way it already did
   CODEMAN_APPDATA_PATH, so Compose never has to materialise a missing
   bind source as root in the first place - the in-container chown
   becomes a safety net, not the primary mechanism.

2. The CLI-update chown (chown -R .../node_modules /usr/local/bin)
   handed the runtime account write access to entrypoint.sh itself
   (root-owned, executed as root on every container start with
   CHOWN/DAC_OVERRIDE/SETUID/SETGID) and the node binary - owning the
   DIRECTORY is enough to rename it aside and drop a replacement, which
   would let a compromised session arrange for its own script to run
   as root at the next restart. The four CLIs now install into a
   dedicated /opt/codeman-cli prefix (NPM_CONFIG_PREFIX); only that
   directory is chowned, /usr/local stays root-owned throughout.

Smaller fixes from the same review:

- Start-Codeman.sh's volume-refresh label filter wasn't project-scoped:
  a second Compose stack on the same host sharing the `codeman-dist`
  volume KEY could have had ITS volume deleted. Added a
  com.docker.compose.project filter, resolved from this stack's own
  `compose config --format json`.
- Override-file precedence was backwards (checked .yaml before .yml;
  Compose actually prefers .yml) - swapped, plus a warning when both
  exist.
- entrypoint.sh's setpriv now also passes --bounding-set -all, so
  CapBnd actually clears post-drop rather than just CapPrm/CapEff.
- A comment on git_head_commit() noting it returns nothing for a
  worktree checkout (.git as a file), consistent with the script's
  existing -d .git convention elsewhere.
- Doc drift: CLAUDE.md's Docker Compose section still described the
  old pre-created-and-chowned-by-hand model and didn't mention the
  root-then-drop entrypoint; the state-files list was missing
  docker-build-source.json; docs/docker-compose.md and
  docker/.env.example still had the pre-rename `Coding/codeman` path
  in one place each.

Verified end to end against a real build on the Unraid host: a
root-owned bind source is corrected as before; a directory owned by
neither root nor PUID:PGID is refused rather than silently rewritten;
a correctly-owned directory is left alone entirely; the four CLIs
resolve via PATH from /opt/codeman-cli while /usr/local/bin,
/usr/local/lib/node_modules and entrypoint.sh itself stay root-owned;
CapBnd is fully cleared post-drop.

DevvynandClaude Opus 5 10876aa440 fix(docker): correct bind-mount ownership before dropping privileges
Compose binds CODEMAN_APPDATA_PATH and CODEMAN_CASES_PATH from the host. When
either path does not exist yet - a first run, a cleared application-data
directory, a restored backup - the Docker daemon creates it owned by root. The
server runs unprivileged as CODEMAN_RUNTIME_USER, so it cannot create its own
state directory, and the container restarts forever on:

  Failed to start web server: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/home/<user>/.codeman'

Start-Codeman.sh already worked around this by preparing the directory on the
host, so the failure only appears when Compose is run directly, which the README
documents as a supported path.

Add docker/entrypoint.sh, which starts as root, corrects the ownership of both
bind mounts, then drops to PUID:PGID with setpriv. The Dockerfile's USER
instruction is replaced by that entrypoint and CMD is unchanged.
docker-compose.yaml adds back only the four capabilities the chown and the
privilege drop require, so cap_drop: ALL continues to remove everything else.

Two guards keep existing deployments working:

- A container started with an explicit `user:` is left alone. The entrypoint
  execs straight through, with no elevation and no chown.
- A chown that fails is a warning, not an error. Bind mounts backed by NFS,
  CIFS or a rootless daemon can refuse chown while remaining perfectly
  writable, and those deployments must keep starting.

PUID and PGID are also exported as runtime environment defaults so the image
behaves correctly when run without Compose, rather than depending on build args
alone.
