Adds script/bootstrap/ — idempotent Ubuntu 22.04+/WSL2/CI automation that takes
a fresh clone to a running local stack with zero production traffic:
- bootstrap_dev_stack.sh: apt packages, MySQL 8 + Redis up, storyteller DB/user,
281 diesel migrations, idempotent role/badge seeds, generated dummy
development-secrets.env (19 required-at-boot vars no checked-in config
supplies), SQLX_OFFLINE backend build, frontend npm install
- run_backend_dev.sh / seed_demo_user.sh: run the API from the repo root and
create+verify a demo login through the real POST /v1/create_account path
- dev_stack_doctor.sh: PASS/WARN/FAIL diagnosis of every prerequisite
_docs/dev_setup_local_stack.md records the requirements the scripts encode and
corrects stale claims (server reads MYSQL_URL, not DATABASE_URL; repo-root .env
is not loaded by the server; config precedence is first-value-wins;
SQLX_OFFLINE is compile-time only).
.gitattributes now forces LF for *.sh/*.env so Windows clones run under WSL2.
