`docker restart galaxy-dev-backend` failed with "not a directory"
after every dev-deploy workflow run. Root cause: the compose file
bind-mounted the geoip database via a relative path
(`../../pkg/geoip/test-data/test-data/GeoIP2-Country-Test.mmdb`).
When the Gitea runner invoked `docker compose up`, the path
resolved against the runner's ephemeral workspace under
`/home/runner/.cache/act/<hash>/hostexecutor/...`. The bind source
baked into the running container therefore pointed at that
ephemeral path; the runner deleted the workspace once the workflow
finished, and any later `docker restart` could not remount.
Replace the bind with a named volume `galaxy-dev-geoip-data`,
seeded at deploy time:
- `tools/dev-deploy/docker-compose.yml`: mount
`galaxy-dev-geoip-data:/var/lib/galaxy:ro` instead of a relative
bind. Declare the volume in the top-level `volumes:` block.
- `.gitea/workflows/dev-deploy.yaml`: new `Seed geoip volume` step
(placed right after the existing UI-volume seed) copies the
fixture from `pkg/geoip/test-data/test-data/` into the named
volume via an ephemeral alpine container, the same pattern UI
seeding already uses.
- `tools/dev-deploy/Makefile`: new `seed-geoip` target performs
the same copy from the persistent checkout. `up` and `rebuild`
now depend on it, so a hand-run `make -C tools/dev-deploy up`
populates the volume without operator action.
- `tools/dev-deploy/README.md`: updated the make-targets table to
list `seed-geoip`.
- `tools/dev-deploy/KNOWN-ISSUES.md`: the entry for the restart
failure is downgraded to a "fixed" postmortem; the symptom,
cause, and where the fix lives are kept for future reference.
Verification on the dev host (this branch checked out):
$ make -C tools/dev-deploy up # populates the volume, brings stack healthy
$ docker restart galaxy-dev-backend # used to error "not a directory"
$ until [ "$(docker inspect -f '{{.State.Health.Status}}' galaxy-dev-backend)" = "healthy" ]; do sleep 2; done
$ echo "ok" # backend up 6s, healthy
The pre-existing sandbox engine `galaxy-game-80f3ce86-...` survived
both `make up` and `docker restart` untouched.

Five connected cleanups across the dev/CI infrastructure:
1. Drop tools/local-ci/. The standalone Gitea + act_runner stack was
the legacy "offline workflow validator"; the per-stage CI gate now
runs on gitea.lan and the directory was only retained as a
fallback. Removing it leaves no operational dependency: backend,
gateway, and game code have no references; documentation that
pointed at it (CLAUDE.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, ui/docs/testing.md,
tools/dev-deploy/README.md, tools/local-dev/README.md) is updated
in this same change. Historical "Verified on local-ci run N"
markers in ui/PLAN.md are preserved unchanged.
2. Lift the pre-production single-migration rule. The rule forced
every schema delta into 00001_init.sql and required a manual
make clean-data wipe on every backward-incompatible change in
tools/dev-deploy/. Future schema deltas now land as additive
sequence-numbered files (00002_*.sql, …) that goose applies
automatically on backend startup; 00001_init.sql becomes an
immutable baseline. Authoring conventions live in
backend/internal/postgres/migrations/README.md. The chain may be
squashed back into a fresh 00001 as a deliberate one-time
operation before the first production deployment.
3. Document the deployment cadence. The dev environment is
single-tenant: pushes to feature/* run the test workflows
(go-unit, ui-test, integration) only; dev-deploy.yaml fires on
push to development. A workflow_dispatch override on
dev-deploy.yaml lets a developer preview a feature branch on the
shared dev environment before merge; the next merge into
development overwrites the manual deploy idempotently.
4. Scope compose-managed resources by an explicit
galaxy.stack=<local-dev|dev-deploy> label. Both compose files
stamp the label on every service, network, and named volume.
Makefiles in tools/local-dev/ and tools/dev-deploy/ filter their
engine-cleanup operations by (stack-label AND engine OCI title)
so they never touch unrelated workloads on the same daemon.
dev-deploy.yaml gains a pre-`compose up` step that reaps stale
exited/dead containers under the dev-deploy stack label.
5. Backend now stamps the same galaxy.stack=<value> label on every
engine container it spawns, sourced from a new BACKEND_STACK_LABEL
env var (empty → label not applied; legacy-safe). Both compose
files set it to their stack name (local-dev / dev-deploy). The
contract is recorded in docs/ARCHITECTURE.md under
"Container labels". A package-level test in
backend/internal/runtime exercises both the label-present and
label-absent paths.
No tests intentionally regressed: go test ./backend/internal/{config,
runtime,dockerclient} is green, both compose files validate cleanly,
and the backend, gateway, and game modules all build.

Two long-standing dev-environment ergonomics had not survived the
move from the bespoke local-dev stack to the CI-driven dev-deploy:
1. `BACKEND_DEV_SANDBOX_EMAIL` defaulted to an empty string in the
dev-deploy compose, so the auto-provisioned "Dev Sandbox" game
never appeared on `https://www.galaxy.lan`. Bake `dev@galaxy.lan`
as the default — matches `.env.example` and lets a developer who
logs in with that email find a ready-to-play game in the lobby.
2. The lobby's synthetic-report loader was gated on
`import.meta.env.DEV`, which is true only for `vite dev` (the
tools/local-dev path). The long-lived dev environment builds
with `vite build` (production mode), so the section was always
stripped from its bundle. Gate it on an explicit
`VITE_GALAXY_DEV_AFFORDANCES` flag instead and set it both in
`.env.development` (preserves `pnpm dev` behaviour) and in the
`dev-deploy.yaml` build step. The `prod-build.yaml` build path
leaves the flag unset, so production stays clean.

A docker-compose stack that hosts postgres, redis, mailpit, backend,
gateway, and an app-routing Caddy. Reachable through the host Caddy at
https://www.galaxy.lan (static SPA) and https://api.galaxy.lan (REST +
gRPC). Coexists with tools/local-dev/ and tools/local-ci/ by giving
every name (compose project, container, network, volume) a distinct
galaxy-dev-* prefix.
State is persisted in named volumes; game-state lives under
${GALAXY_DEV_GAME_STATE_DIR:-$HOME/.galaxy-dev/game-state} so the
default works for a non-root runner without sudo.
