- **docker-compose.yml**: removed obsolete `version: "3.9"` (caused warning in modern Docker Compose).
- **docker-compose.yml**: fixed frontend build context — was `./frontend` (broke `COPY deploy/nginx.conf` and `COPY frontend/package*.json` in Dockerfile.frontend). Now correctly `.` (project root) with `dockerfile: deploy/Dockerfile.frontend`.
- **docker-compose.yml**: fixed frontend port mapping — was `5173:5173` but the frontend container is nginx on port 80. Now `8080:80` so the app is accessible at `http://localhost:8080`.
- **docker-compose.yml**: added `extra_hosts: ["host.docker.internal:host-gateway"]` to the backend service — enables `LLM_API_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434/v1` to work on Linux hosts (not just Docker Desktop on Mac/Windows).
- **docker-compose.yml**: added `VITE_API_BASE_URL: /api` build arg for the frontend service — bakes the relative `/api` URL into the Vite bundle so the browser uses the same origin + nginx proxies `/api` → `backend:8000`.
- **deploy/Dockerfile.frontend**: added `ARG VITE_API_BASE_URL=/api` + `ENV` so the build arg actually gets baked into the Vite bundle.
- **deploy/nginx.conf**: extended SSE timeouts from 300s → 600s; added `proxy_send_timeout`; added `Upgrade`/`Connection` headers for future WebSocket support; added gzip for static assets.
- **.env.example**: clarified `VITE_API_BASE_URL` — only used by local `npm run dev`, ignored by docker build (which uses `/api` relative). Removed the misleading `http://localhost/api` default.
- **frontend/src/lib/api.ts**: now respects `VITE_API_BASE_URL` env var with fallback to relative `/api`. Works both for local dev (point at separate backend) and Docker (nginx proxy).
- **frontend/src/vite-env.d.ts**: added Vite env type declarations so TypeScript knows about `import.meta.env.VITE_API_BASE_URL`.
- **app/api/deps.py**: added `?access_token=<jwt>` query parameter fallback for SSE endpoints. Native `EventSource` cannot send `Authorization` headers, so the frontend SSE client passes the token via query string. Without this fix, all SSE endpoints (`/iterate/stream`, `/builder/stream`, `/editor/stream`) returned 401.
- **.dockerignore**: added at project root — excludes `node_modules/`, `__pycache__/`, `.venv/`, `data/`, `.git/`, etc. from Docker build contexts (faster builds, smaller context transfer).
- docker-compose with 4 services: db (PostgreSQL 15), qdrant (1.9), backend (FastAPI/uvicorn), frontend (Vite dev / nginx prod).
- SQLAlchemy 2.x async models for all 10 tables: `users`, `settings`, `world_presets`, `worlds`, `entities`, `steps`, `step_tool_calls`, `deferred_triggers`, `story_entries`, `llm_call_logs`.
- Alembic-equivalent idempotent migration `001_initial_schema.py` (creates all tables, no pgvector).
-`init_qdrant.py` creates collections `entities` and `story_entries` with payload indexes on `world_id`, `entity_type`, `entry_type`, `deleted`, `created_at`.
-`POST /api/register` (only if at least one admin exists), `POST /api/register/admin?token=`, `POST /api/auth/login` (email or username), `POST /api/auth/refresh`, `POST /api/auth/logout`, `GET /api/auth/me`.
- JWT (access + refresh) with python-jose, password hashing with passlib[bcrypt].
