+## Production-handoff replay on 2026-07-20
+
+Commit `14987bb` adds a first-deployment Compose path without inventing the
+unknown server topology. `scripts/init-production-env.sh` generated independent
+database, Phoenix, handover, BEAM-cookie and metrics values without printing
+them, wrote mode `0600`, and refused to overwrite its destination.
+`scripts/validate-production-env.sh` accepted the fully supplied fixture and
+rejected the unresolved proxy/SMTP fixture. The configurable
+`HTTP_BIND_ADDRESS` rendered as both `0.0.0.0` and `127.0.0.1`.
+`compose.production.yaml` kept Mailpit inactive unless its explicit local
+profile was enabled.
+
+- The complete isolated quality/security gate passed after these changes:
+  244/244 ExUnit tests, format and warnings-as-errors compilation, xref, Credo,
+  Sobelow, Dialyzer, Hex/npm audits, ShellCheck, actionlint, all Compose/Helm
+  renders, observability validation, tracked-source secret/misconfiguration
+  scanning, and all configured production/infrastructure image scans. The
+  configured-threshold vulnerability count was zero.
+- The deployed Compose stack applied all 12 migrations and reported two
+  healthy web plus two healthy worker replicas. A repeated cluster probe
+  observed all four BEAM nodes and passed cross-node PubSub. Fresh cgroup
+  observations were approximately 210-221 MB per application replica; this is
+  not a future server minimum or capacity promise.
+- Public HTTPS returned ready/live success, HSTS, secure HttpOnly SameSite
+  cookies and the expected security headers. The scheme-specific CSP contained
+  `wss://whoneedhelp.imalto.site` and no plaintext WebSocket origin.
+- A headed Chrome registration used a unique run-scoped address, received its
+  confirmation message in Mailpit, required explicit confirmation, and created
+  an authenticated session. The profile exposed location-visibility choices,
+  manually added unverified social-link semantics, reputation, blocks and an
+  optional external thank-you link. Sensitive settings correctly required
+  email reauthentication after the sudo window. The password form's browser
+  accessibility warning was fixed by associating its username; the fresh
+  deployed settings tab reported zero errors and zero warnings.
+- A full public staging replay passed 3/3 registration/settings, mutual-aid and
+  activity/moderation scenarios. Its database cleanup diff was empty. Evidence
+  is `output/staging-full-e2e/20260720184356-3858682`.
+- The public PWA install/cache-update/offline-fallback replay passed 1/1.
+  Evidence is `output/staging-pwa-e2e/20260720184450-3875584`.
+- The current staging APK/test APK were rebuilt for the configured HTTPS
+  origin. The Android 37/browser replay passed magic login, bidirectional
+  realtime chat, foreground location sharing, a PostGIS-backed position and
+  notification Stop cleanup; it retained zero raw positions and its database
+  cleanup diff was empty. Evidence is
+  `output/android-browser-staging-e2e/20260720184520-3885007`.
+- Backup `output/backups/compose-20260720-182338.dump` has SHA-256
+  `ac19d5dbb3c1b797269003d6b302a2ae3d8d9634be6ad31ea2468d7f5a837a3b`.
+  Its fresh-database restore drill found 23 public tables, 1,489 rows, all 12
+  migrations and PostGIS 3.6.4. The upgrade rehearsal passed with an empty
+  application-table diff, four cluster nodes, PubSub and HTTP; evidence is
+  `output/upgrade-rehearsal/20260720182353-3474703`.
+
+The final manual registration account had no request, assignment, message,
+activity, review, report, block, social-identity or tracking references. It and
+its two session tokens were removed in one exact transaction; its two exact
+Mailpit message IDs were also removed. Final domain counts returned to two
+users, one unrelated request, one unrelated assignment and seven unrelated
+messages. One PostgreSQL error in the audit window came from an incorrect
+column name in a read-only operator query; PostgreSQL aborted that transaction.
+The subsequent log window contained no matched error/warning entry.
