Merging despite Go (PostgreSQL) red — those failures (TestListItems_FTS_HyphenatedSearchTerm/task-five + TestAdminBillingStats_SidecarSidecarError_DegradesToLocalOnly TempDir cleanup race) are pre-existing on main and tracked in BUG-842.
Codex reviewed in 3 rounds (round 1 clean → round 2 found a real semantic bug → fix → round 3 clean). Tests, vet, and lint all green; remaining check failures are documented pre-existing.
Grouped nice-to-haves called out in the pre-launch audit.
1. docs/architecture.md — new contributor-focused architecture doc.
CLAUDE.md covers the same ground but is agent-oriented; this is the
human companion. Covers backend layout, request flow, frontend /
data model / CLI↔daemon model / agent integration / testing.
2. .env.example — extended to document every PAD_* variable in
docs/deployment.md (core, database, real-time events, security,
email). Existing Postgres/Redis + encryption secrets kept at the
top; new variables grouped by concern with inline comments and
safe defaults commented out.
3. .gitattributes — normalize LF line endings repo-wide, mark binary
assets, and flag web/build + web/.svelte-kit as generated so they
don't pollute GitHub linguist stats or PR diffs.
4. Makefile — CAUTION comment on `make install` noting that the
`killall -9 pad` step is system-wide; anyone else's pad daemon on
the same machine gets killed too. Designed for single-developer
local setups; not for shared hosts.
