   - **Migrations squashed** 12 → one hand-written `00001_baseline.sql`. Verified by a
     `pg_dump --schema-only` diff (the chain vs the baseline are **identical** but for the two intended
     variant-CHECK values) plus the green integration suite. **No data migration** (no production data).

+    bytes, no rewire; the backend pulls a version-pinned release artifact, not master). Post-merge the
+    contour `backend` schema was wiped (`DROP SCHEMA backend CASCADE` + restart, not a volume drop) and
+    re-migrated to the baseline — verified the new variant CHECK (`scrabble_en/scrabble_ru/erudit_ru`),
+    `games`=0 and a clean boot.
