environment: blocks were in no particular order. They now run must-have ->
should-have -> optional, with related variables kept adjacent as a group that
takes the tier of its most important member: PUID/PGID, PASSWORD with
SUDO_PASSWORD, DOCKER_MODS ahead of the INSTALL_PACKAGES and
NODEJS_MOD_VERSION that configure it, the four GIT_* entries, the PASEO_*
daemon settings.
Each .env.example is reordered to match its compose file. The names do not map
one to one -- PASSWORD feeds both PASSWORD and SUDO_PASSWORD, SERVICE_HOSTNAME
feeds HOST -- so an entry sits where the first compose entry reading it sits.
The HOST comment in both compose files is dropped; the READMEs already carry
that explanation in full. CLAUDE.md records the ordering convention.
alloy and gitea-mirror-local are untouched: every variable there is required,
so the tiers collapse and the existing grouping is the better one.
Record the convention in CLAUDE.md: .env.example is a template, so its values
stay generic and the real ones are set per deployment in Coolify or Dokploy.
Note the naming trap alongside it -- Compose interpolation reads the deploying
shell's environment before the .env file, so a variable must not collide with
one the shell already exports.
The alloy README's example host is made generic to match.
Comments say what a section installs or configures. Why not the distro
package, why that directory, why a version is pinned — that belongs in the
service README, where it can be read in full.
Replaces the line under "Installing software in an image" that asked for the
opposite.
Go 1.26.8 from the official tarball and Python 3.12 via uv, since Debian
12 carries 1.19 and 3.11. Both land outside $HOME, which the paseo-home
volume would otherwise mask.
Hostname and timezone come from the environment rather than being fixed in
the compose file. Paseo uses the container hostname as the host label in
its web UI, so without one the UI shows a random container ID.
Set up the per-service layout: each service directory holds compose.yml
with a committed .env.example and a gitignored .env.
Add code-server as the first service, plus a README and CLAUDE.md
documenting that these files target Coolify/Dokploy and deliberately
omit ports and restart policies.
