# CasjaysDev Docker Application Image Specification (casjaysdevdocker)

**Name**: {name}

**About this file:** This is the complete, authoritative specification for a CasjaysDev
Docker **application image** repository (`casjaysdevdocker/{name}`). It is a master
template — copied into an app image repo as that repo's `AI.md`. It is **permanent** —
never delete it from a repo that carries it.

**Note:** `{name}` in this file is a reference token, not setup-time replacement text. Its
value is always the repo directory basename (`basename "$PWD"`).

**Maintenance procedure:** The bootstrap/update runbook (regenerating files after upstream
template changes, creating new repos) is NOT in this file — it lives in the
`dockersrc-bootstrap` agent (it handles both repo families via `REPO_TYPE` detection).
This file defines the standards that procedure enforces.

# PART 0: CRITICAL RULES

## Org mapping

| System | Org | Example |
|--------|-----|---------|
| GitHub (source) | `casjaysdevdocker` | `https://github.com/casjaysdevdocker/{name}` |
| Docker Hub (push) | `casjaysdevdocker` | `casjaysdevdocker/{name}` |

`casjaysdevdocker` repos are **applications** (gitea, opengist, super-productivity,
ampache, aria2, …). They always build FROM the pre-built, multi-arch `casjaysdev/*` base
images — never directly from upstream distro images. The bases themselves live in the
separate `dockersrc` org (GitHub `dockersrc/{base}` → Docker Hub `casjaysdev/{base}`) —
see the base specification (`DOCKERSRC.md`).

## Non-negotiable rules

1. **`AI.md` is permanent** — never delete it from the repo.
2. **Generated files are owned by the template system** — never hand-tune content that
   `gen-dockerfile` regenerates (see PART 1 ownership table); fix the upstream
   `gen-dockerfile` template instead, then regenerate.
3. **Hand-crafted files are owned by the repo** — `gen-dockerfile` must never overwrite
   app-specific init.d scripts, custom bin scripts, a `05-custom.sh` with real content, or
   a hand-crafted README (PART 6).
4. **Removed OCI labels stay removed** (PART 2) — never re-add `base.name`,
   `schema-version`, or duplicate `authors`/`source` entries.
5. **`image.url` is a browsable page** — `https://hub.docker.com/r/casjaysdevdocker/{name}`.
   `docker.io` is only a registry pull host; it is never a label URL.
6. **`image.source` and `image.documentation` are the GitHub repo** —
   `https://github.com/casjaysdevdocker/{name}`.
7. **One Dockerfile, one file set** — app repos build one image (`latest` + date tag);
   version variants (`Dockerfile.{ver}`) belong to base repos only.
8. **Always `FROM casjaysdev/<base>`** — never pull an upstream distro image directly;
   the base repos exist so every app shares one patched, multi-arch foundation.
9. **Only `root/`, `tmp/`, and `usr/` may exist at `rootfs/` top level** (PART 1).
10. **Maintenance runs through the `dockersrc-bootstrap` agent** — do not improvise the
    update procedure from memory.

# PART 1: REPOSITORY MODEL & STRUCTURE

## What an app image repo is

A `casjaysdevdocker/{name}` repo containerizes one application on top of a
`casjaysdev/*` base. It publishes a single image (`casjaysdevdocker/{name}:latest` plus a
date tag) — no per-version Dockerfile variants. The application itself is installed in
`05-custom.sh` and started by one or more init.d service scripts.

```

`[generated]` — safe to regenerate; local edits will be lost.
`[generated*]` — regenerated from the template, EXCEPT files carrying repo-specific
content (`05-custom.sh` with a real body, extra bin scripts, a hand-crafted README) —
those follow the hand-crafted rules in PARTs 5 and 6.
`[hand-crafted]` — never overwritten by the template system.

App repos may additionally carry project files (`IDEA.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, `TODO.AI.md`)
per the global project conventions — they are repo-owned and never touched by tooling.

## rootfs top-level policy

The only valid directories at the `rootfs/` root are `root/`, `tmp/`, and `usr/`.
Anything else is a leftover from old patterns. Migration map:

| Old rootfs path | Correct rootfs path |
|-----------------|---------------------|
| `rootfs/etc/{path}` | `rootfs/tmp/etc/{path}` |
| `rootfs/config/{path}` | `rootfs/tmp/etc/{path}` |
| `rootfs/data/{path}` | `rootfs/tmp/var/{path}` |
| `rootfs/var/{path}` | `rootfs/tmp/var/{path}` |
| `rootfs/opt/{path}` | `rootfs/tmp/opt/{path}` |
| `rootfs/share/{path}` | `rootfs/usr/local/share/{path}` |

`rootfs/usr/local/share/template-files/` is retired — the `DEFAULT_TEMPLATE_DIR`,
`DEFAULT_FILE_DIR`, `DEFAULT_DATA_DIR`, and `DEFAULT_CONF_DIR` variables were removed
from the template system; the entrypoint installs staged files from `rootfs/tmp/etc/`
at container start instead.

## Repo type detection

A repo is an **app** repo when no `Dockerfile.*` variant files exist:

```bash
if find . -maxdepth 1 -name 'Dockerfile.*' -type f | grep -q -- .; then
  REPO_TYPE="base"
else
  REPO_TYPE="app"
fi
```

---

# PART 2: TEMPLATE SYSTEM REFERENCE

Templates ship with `gen-dockerfile`, installed at
`/usr/local/share/CasjaysDev/scripts/templates/dockerfiles/`
(`$CASJAYSDEVDIR/templates/dockerfiles/` in a dev checkout). To inspect what the current
templates produce, generate a fresh reference tree in a temp dir:

```bash
gen-dockerfile /tmp/gen-dockerfile/{org}/{repo} {distro}
```

See `gen-dockerfile --help` for supported distros/types. Keep this PART in sync whenever
the templates change.

## Template inventory

The template name selects the base OS family; for an app repo the resulting pull URL is
always the matching `casjaysdev/*` image:

| Template | Final stage | Init / PID 1 | App pulls FROM |
|----------|-------------|--------------|----------------|
| `alpine.template` | `scratch.template` | tini | `casjaysdev/alpine` |
| `debian.template` | `scratch.template` | tini | `casjaysdev/debian` |
| `ubuntu.template` | `scratch.template` | tini | `casjaysdev/ubuntu` |
| `rhel.template` | `scratch.template` | tini | `casjaysdev/almalinux` |
| `archlinux.template` | `scratch.template` | tini | `casjaysdev/archlinux` (multi-arch manifest) |
| `web.template` | `systemd.template` | `/sbin/init` | `casjaysdev/web` |
| `xorg.template` | `systemd.template` | `/sbin/init` | `casjaysdev/xorg` |

Default template for app repos is `alpine` unless the application needs systemd, a GUI
stack, or a distro-specific package.

## Final-stage templates

`scratch.template` — all non-GUI templates.
- `ENTRYPOINT [ "tini", "-p", "SIGTERM","--", "/usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh" ]`
- `STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3`

`systemd.template` — `web` and `xorg` (systemd is PID 1; tini is redundant).
- `ENTRYPOINT [ "/sbin/init" ]`
- `STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3`
- No `tini_provider` stage, no `COPY --from=tini_provider` line.

Both are identical apart from `ENTRYPOINT`. OCI labels, `ENV HOSTNAME`, and
`VOLUME`/`EXPOSE`/`HEALTHCHECK` are the same in both.

## OCI label standard

Both final-stage templates emit these labels (no others):

```
LABEL maintainer="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_MAINTAINER}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.vendor="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_VENDOR:-CasjaysDev}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.authors="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_AUTHOR:-CasjaysDev}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.licenses="${LICENSE}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.title="${IMAGE_NAME}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.description="Containerized version of ${IMAGE_NAME}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.created="${BUILD_DATE}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.version="${BUILD_VERSION}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.revision="${GIT_COMMIT}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.url="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_HUB_REPO}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.source="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_GIT_REPO}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.documentation="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_GIT_REPO}"
LABEL org.opencontainers.image.vcs-type="Git"
LABEL com.github.containers.toolbox="false"
```

Shell-expanded values (no `\`) are evaluated at template-render time by `gen-dockerfile`.
Dollar-escaped values (`\${...}`) become literal Docker `ARG`/`ENV` references in the
generated `Dockerfile`.

Resolved values for a `casjaysdevdocker` repo pushing to Docker Hub:

| Label | Value |
|-------|-------|
| `url` | `https://hub.docker.com/r/casjaysdevdocker/{name}` — browsable Hub page; `gen-dockerfile` derives it from the registry host (`docker.io` → `hub.docker.com/r/`) |
| `source` | `https://github.com/casjaysdevdocker/{name}` |
| `documentation` | `https://github.com/casjaysdevdocker/{name}` |

Older app repos may still carry `url="https://docker.io/casjaysdevdocker/{name}"` — that
is the stale form; regeneration corrects it. Removed labels (never re-add):
- `org.opencontainers.image.base.name` — belongs on the base image, not this image
- `org.opencontainers.image.schema-version` — non-spec; redundant with `version`
- Any duplicate `authors` or `source` entries

## HOSTNAME convention

All templates set `ENV HOSTNAME="casjaysdevdocker-${IMAGE_NAME}"` in every stage that
declares it. The prefix is always `casjaysdevdocker-`, never `casjaysdev-`.

## `GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR` and pull URL logic

`GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR` is auto-detected by `gen-dockerfile` from the parent directory
of `$PWD` (the org the checkout lives in):

```bash
GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR="${GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR:-$(basename -- "$(dirname -- "$PWD")")}"
```

It selects the `GEN_DOCKER_SPECIFY_IMAGE_SOURCE_*` defaults:

- `casjaysdevdocker/*` repos → `FROM casjaysdev/<distro>:latest` (pre-built, multi-arch)
- `dockersrc/*` and all other orgs → `FROM <distro>:latest` (upstream official images)

App repos must resolve to the `casjaysdev/*` branch — a checkout outside
`~/Projects/*/casjaysdevdocker/` needs `GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR="casjaysdevdocker"`
exported before calling `gen-dockerfile`, or the regenerated Dockerfile silently reverts
to upstream distro pulls (rule 8 violation).

## Arch Linux apps

`casjaysdev/archlinux` is a multi-arch manifest (`linux/amd64` + `linux/arm64`), so app
repos use a single `FROM ${PULL_URL}:${DISTRO_VERSION} AS build` — the three-stage
`base-${TARGETARCH}` FROM block belongs to the base repo only.

## `web.template` / `xorg.template` notes

`web` apps inherit the systemd + noVNC stack (`SERVICE_PORT="5800"`,
`EXPOSE_PORTS="5800 5900"` defaults); `xorg` apps inherit the systemd + Xorg stack. App
packages go in `ENV_PACKAGES` / `02-packages.sh`, never by editing the template's stack
list.

## `debian.template` / `ubuntu.template` — RUN continuation

The first `RUN` block must have `; \` after the `echo` line so
`export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive` executes before `apt-get`:

```dockerfile
RUN set -e; \
  echo "Updating the system"; \
  export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive; \
  apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -yy && apt-get dist-upgrade -yy
```

Without the `; \` the export is a no-op and `apt-get` may prompt interactively.

## Template resolution order

1. `$GEN_DOCKERFILE_CONFIG_DIR/templates/<name>.template` (user override)
2. `/usr/local/share/CasjaysDev/scripts/templates/dockerfiles/<name>.template`
   (installed; `$CASJAYSDEVDIR/templates/dockerfiles/` in a dev checkout)

`template_options.source` is sourced after `__set_variables`, allowing template-specific
variable overrides.

# PART 3: TOOLING — gen-dockerfile & gen-script

## `gen-dockerfile`

```
Usage: gen-dockerfile [options] [dir] [template] [repo-name] [git-repo-url]
```

| Flag | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| `--update` | Rewrite `.env.scripts` (add/drop vars against the current template) and update ARG/LABEL lines in the `Dockerfile`. Touches no other file. |
| `--nogit` | Do not init or commit a git repo — required inside an existing repo. |
| `--dir PATH` | Operate on / write output to PATH instead of `$PWD`. |
| `--template NAME` | Template to use (`alpine`, `debian`, `ubuntu`, `rhel`, `archlinux`, `scratch`, `web`, `xorg`). Defaults to `alpine`. |
| `--repo NAME` | Registry repo name (image basename). Defaults to the directory name. |
| `--org NAME` | Registry owner / GitHub org (`--user` is an alias). Prefix `git:` or `reg:` to scope to one system; bare value sets both. For app repos both are `casjaysdevdocker`. |
| `--registry URL` | Registry provider URL (e.g. `https://docker.io`). |
| `--tag VERSION` | Image version tag (default `latest`). |
| `--add-tags TAGS` | Comma-separated additional tags (`USE_DATE` = auto date tag). |
| `--distro-name IMG` | Base image pull URL (overrides `ENV_PULL_URL`). |
| `--distro-version T` | Base image tag (overrides `ENV_DISTRO_TAG`). |
| `--startup FILE` | Generate an init.d service script at `rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/FILE` via `gen-script other/start-service`. |
| `--dockerfile` | Regenerate the Dockerfile only. |
| `--force` | Overwrite existing files without prompting. |

Resolution order when a value is not given by a flag: flags → git remote → project dirs →
defaults.

Special subcommand — `gen-dockerfile actions` writes `.gitea/workflows/build.yml` from
the existing `Dockerfile` (PART 7). App repos have no versioned `build.{ver}.yml` files.

## `gen-script`

```
Usage: gen-script [options] [template] [filename]
```

| Flag / env var | Meaning |
|----------------|---------|
| `--dir PATH` | Write the generated file to `PATH/filename`. |
| `-n` / `--name VALUE` | Service name substituted into the template — fills `REPLACE_SERVICE_NAME` in `other/start-service`, pre-populating `SERVICE_NAME=` without a sed step. |
| `GEN_SCRIPT_OVERWRITE="Y"` | Overwrite the output without prompting (default `"A"` = ask). Required when the target exists, even with `GEN_SCRIPT_EDITFILE="N"`. |
| `GEN_SCRIPT_EDITFILE="N"` | Suppress the interactive editor after generation. `-e`/`--no` sets BOTH this AND `GEN_SCRIPT_OVERWRITE="Y"`; the env var alone does not. |
| `other/start-service` | Template path — positional arg 1, slash-joined words, matching the `@@Template` header. |
| `filename` | Output basename — positional arg 2, combined with `--dir`. |

Other flags: `-k`/`--keep` (never overwrite), `--replace` (new header replaces old),
`-d`/`--desc` (header description), `-p`/`--prev` (copy header metadata from a file).

---

# PART 4: `.env.scripts` REFERENCE

Generated at the repo root; sourced by `gen-dockerfile` and by CI at build time. App
repos carry exactly one. It is a pure `KEY="value"` file — no logic.

## Variables

| Variable | Purpose |
|----------|---------|
| `ENV_DOCKERFILE` | Dockerfile to build (`Dockerfile`) |
| `ENV_REGISTRY_REPO` | Image name in the registry (`{name}`) |
| `ENV_REGISTRY_ORG` | Registry namespace — `casjaysdevdocker` for app repos |
| `ENV_REGISTRY_URL` | Registry base URL (`https://docker.io`) — pull/push host, never a label URL |
| `ENV_REGISTRY_PUSH` | Full push path `org/repo` (`casjaysdevdocker/{name}`) |
| `ENV_ADD_IMAGE_PUSH` | Extra push destinations |
| `ENV_GIT_REPO_URL` | Full Git repo URL — `https://github.com/casjaysdevdocker/{name}`; feeds the `source`/`documentation` labels, so a wrong value here regresses labels on regeneration |
| `ENV_USE_TEMPLATE` | Template name (`alpine`, `debian`, …) — the authoritative record of which base family the app builds on |
| `ENV_PULL_URL` | Base image to pull FROM (`casjaysdev/<base>`) |
| `ENV_DISTRO_TAG` | Tag for the pull image (`latest`) |
| `ENV_IMAGE_TAG` | Default image tag (`latest`) |
| `ENV_ADD_TAGS` | Additional comma-separated tags; `USE_DATE` auto-generates a date tag |
| `ENV_PACKAGES` | Space-separated package list |
| `ENV_VENDOR` / `ENV_AUTHOR` / `ENV_MAINTAINER` | Label metadata |
| `SERVICE_PORT` | Primary exposed port — apps normally set this |
| `EXPOSE_PORTS` | Additional exposed ports |
| `PHP_VERSION` / `NODE_VERSION` / `NODE_MANAGER` | Runtime versions (`system` default) |
| `WWW_ROOT_DIR` | Web root (`/usr/local/share/httpd/default`) |
| `DOCKER_ENTYPOINT_PORTS_WEB` / `DOCKER_ENTYPOINT_PORTS_SRV` | Ports passed to the entrypoint |
| `DOCKER_ENTYPOINT_HEALTH_APPS` / `DOCKER_ENTYPOINT_HEALTH_ENDPOINTS` | Healthcheck targets |

## Legacy variable auto-migration

`gen-dockerfile` calls `__migrate_env_script` on every run, renaming old variables:

| Old name | Current name |
|----------|-------------|
| `ENV_IMAGE_NAME` | `ENV_REGISTRY_REPO` |
| `ENV_IMAGE_PUSH` | `ENV_REGISTRY_PUSH` |
| `ENV_HUB_BASE` | `ENV_REGISTRY_URL` |
| `ENV_ORG_NAME` | `ENV_REGISTRY_ORG` |

Never use the old names in new files. Retired variables that must not reappear anywhere:
`DEFAULT_TEMPLATE_DIR`, `DEFAULT_FILE_DIR`, `DEFAULT_DATA_DIR`, `DEFAULT_CONF_DIR`.

---

# PART 5: RUNTIME SYSTEM — SETUP SCRIPTS, ENTRYPOINT, INIT.D

## Build-time setup scripts (`rootfs/root/docker/setup/`)

Run in order inside the build stage:

| Script | Role |
|--------|------|
| `00-init.sh` | Initialize base directory structure and environment |
| `01-system.sh` | Repos, locales, timezone, system settings |
| `02-packages.sh` | App-specific packages, package managers, language runtimes |
| `03-files.sh` | Install staged files (`rootfs/tmp/etc/*` → `/etc/*`), permissions, symlinks |
| `04-users.sh` | Create service users/groups |
| `05-custom.sh` | Application install logic — the heart of an app repo |
| `06-post.sh` | Post-install configuration |
| `07-cleanup.sh` | Remove build deps, caches, temp files |

**`05-custom.sh` ownership:** the upstream template ships an empty stub. An app repo's
`05-custom.sh` carries the application install (download/build, users, default config) —
that content exists only in the repo's git history, never in the template. On
regeneration, keep the existing body and pull forward only boilerplate (version-stamp
header, `set` line, shellcheck-disable line). The same rule applies to any other `0*.sh`
found to contain real logic beyond the stub.

## Entrypoint flow

```
tini → /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh
├─ Load /usr/local/etc/docker/functions/entrypoint.sh
├─ Source env: /root/env.sh, /usr/local/etc/docker/env/*.sh, /config/env/*.sh
├─ Seed /config and /data on first run
├─ __start_init_scripts — source every init.d/*.sh in sort order
├─ Handle `healthcheck` command
└─ Execute main application
```

`rootfs/usr/local/bin/` generated set: `entrypoint.sh`, `pkmgr`, `symlink`, `copy`,
`healthcheck`. `pkmgr` wraps the native package manager (`apk`, `apt-get`, `dnf`,
`pacman`) behind `pkmgr update|install|remove|clean`.

## App-specific bin scripts

Extra scripts in `rootfs/usr/local/bin/` that `gen-dockerfile` does not generate are
repo-owned. Their `@@Template` header governs maintenance:

- `@@Template : shell/sh` — boilerplate synced from `$TEMPLATE_DIR/scripts/shell/sh`;
  `#!/usr/bin/env sh`, `set -e` only (`pipefail` is a bashism — must NOT appear)
- `@@Template : shell/bash` — synced from `shell/bash`; `set -eo pipefail` required
- No `@@Template` header — hand-written; never modified by tooling

## init.d scripts — critical rules

**Each service gets its own numbered init.d script. Never merge or remove services.**
`__start_init_scripts` sources every `*.sh` in sort order — multi-process apps have one
script per daemon (e.g. gitea: `05-dockerd.sh`, `08-gitea.sh`, `zz-act_runner.sh`).

init.d scripts are **regenerated, never patched in place** — old copies may call functions
removed from the current `functions/entrypoint.sh`. Generate fresh via
`gen-script other/start-service` (or `gen-dockerfile --startup`), then restore the
app-specific values. They are `#!/usr/bin/env bash` with `set -eo pipefail`.

Required variables in every init.d script:

```bash
SERVICE_NAME="myapp"
EXEC_CMD_BIN='myapp'
EXEC_CMD_ARGS=''
EXEC_PRE_SCRIPT=''
SERVICE_USES_PID=''
IS_WEB_SERVER="no"
IS_DATABASE_SERVICE="no"
USES_DATABASE_SERVICE="no"
DATABASE_SERVICE_TYPE="sqlite"
RUNAS_USER="root"
```

Directory variables:

```bash
DATA_DIR="/data/$SERVICE_NAME"
CONF_DIR="/config/$SERVICE_NAME"
ETC_DIR="/etc/$SERVICE_NAME"
LOG_DIR="/data/logs/$SERVICE_NAME"
TMP_DIR="/tmp/$SERVICE_NAME"
RUN_DIR="/run/$SERVICE_NAME"
ROOT_FILE_PREFIX="/config/secure/auth/root"
USER_FILE_PREFIX="/config/secure/auth/user"
```

## Hook functions

The `start-service` template generates all outer hooks fully implemented — customise via
the matching `*_local()` stub, which each outer hook calls automatically if defined:

| Outer hook (do not redefine) | Customise via |
|------------------------------|---------------|
| `__run_precopy` | `__run_precopy_local` |
| `__execute_prerun` | `__execute_prerun_local` |
| `__run_pre_execute_checks` | `__run_pre_execute_checks_local` |
| `__update_conf_files` | `__update_conf_files_local` |
| `__pre_execute` | `__pre_execute_local` |
| `__post_execute` | `__post_execute_local` |
| `__pre_message` | `__pre_message_local` |
| `__update_ssl_conf` | `__update_ssl_conf_local` |
| `__create_service_env` | — |
| `__run_start_script` | — |
| `__run_secure_function` | — |

## PID sentinel guard

Every init.d script must guard on exactly this sentinel — leading dot, no underscores in
the filename portion; any other form silently skips the guard:

```bash
if [ ! -f "/run/.start_init_scripts.pid" ]; then
  echo "__start_init_scripts function hasn't been Initialized" >&2
  SERVICE_IS_RUNNING="no"
  __script_exit 1
fi
```

## Volumes

- `/config` — persistent configuration
- `/data` — persistent application data

# PART 6: README.md STANDARD LAYOUT

App image layout (`casjaysdevdocker/{name}` → `casjaysdevdocker/{name}`). Substitute
`{name}` and `{port}` (the value of `SERVICE_PORT`); omit all `-p`/`ports:` sections only
in the rare case `SERVICE_PORT` is empty.

**Hand-crafted README exception:** a repo whose README deliberately diverges from this
layout (full env-var tables, app-specific quick-start flags — e.g. gitea) owns its README.
Update its facts (image name, org, ports, URLs), never rewrite its structure back to the
generated layout.

# PART 7: CI/CD WORKFLOWS

## Generated workflow (`gen-dockerfile actions`)

`gen-dockerfile actions` writes `.gitea/workflows/build.yml` from the current
`Dockerfile`. App repos get the single `build.yml` only — no versioned variants. All
actions are SHA-pinned — never tag-pinned.

- **Triggers:** `push` to `main`, monthly schedule, `workflow_dispatch`
- **Registry strategy:** always logs in to the Gitea registry via the auto-provided
  `GITEA_TOKEN`; conditionally logs in to Docker Hub when `vars.DOCKER_USERNAME` is set
  (`vars.DOCKER_USERNAME` + `secrets.DOCKER_PASSWORD`; `vars.DOCKER_REGISTRY` overrides
  the registry, `vars.DOCKER_ORG` the namespace)
- **Platforms:** `linux/amd64,linux/arm64`
- **build-args:** only `BUILD_DATE`, `GIT_COMMIT`, `BUILD_VERSION`
- **Tags pushed:** date tag (`yymm`) + `latest` to both registries
- **Annotations:** mirror the OCI label standard (PART 2), with `url`/`source`/
  `documentation` set to the workflow's repository URL

## Legacy workflow (`docker.yaml`)

A hand-crafted `.gitea/workflows/docker.yaml` may exist in older repos — reference copy in
the org-level `.github` repo. **Never overwrite it, and never use it as a template for new
work** — it uses tag-pinned actions and retired secret names. All new/updated workflows
come from `gen-dockerfile actions`.

# PART 8: VERIFICATION & COMMIT

## Syntax gates

Every touched script must pass before commit:

```bash
for f in rootfs/usr/local/bin/*; do
  [ -f "$f" ] || continue
  case "$(head -1 "$f")" in
    *bash*) bash -n "$f" || exit 1 ;;
    *sh*)   sh -n "$f"   || exit 1 ;;
  esac
done

bash -n rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/functions/entrypoint.sh

for f in rootfs/root/docker/setup/0*.sh rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/*.sh; do
  [ -f "$f" ] || continue
  bash -n "$f" || exit 1
done
```

## Dead-reference gates

After any regeneration:

1. No script references an env var removed from `.env.scripts` (diff-driven check).
2. No script calls a function absent from both the current
   `functions/entrypoint.sh` and the script itself.
3. No `__copy_templates` calls remain (retired with `DEFAULT_TEMPLATE_DIR`).
4. `Dockerfile` still pulls `FROM casjaysdev/*` (rule 8) — an upstream distro pull means
   `GEN_DOCKERFILE_APP_DIR` resolved wrong during regeneration.

## Commit

```bash
git status --porcelain
git diff --stat
```

Write `.git/COMMIT_MESS` from the actual diff — subject ≤64 chars, body as
`- path: change` bullets covering every changed file. Then:

```bash
gitcommit --dir "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" all
```

`git commit` / `git push` directly are forbidden. Never commit with a failing syntax
gate.
