-#### Migrating production
-
-`database.migrations` is a run-once job rather than a service in the prod stack,
-so the schema is migrated when an operator asks for it instead of on every boot.
-Build the image and run it against the network the prod stack creates:
-
-```bash
-docker build -t database.migrations \

-DbUp records every script it has applied, so a re-run applies only what is new.
-Run this with `sqlserver` already up and healthy, and before the seed job.
-
-#### Restart tolerance
-
-`sqlserver`, `api.core`, `seaweedfs` and `frontend` run under
-`restart: unless-stopped`, so the stack returns on its own after a container
-crash, a Docker daemon restart or a host reboot, provided Docker itself starts at
-boot (`systemctl enable docker`). The migration and seed jobs stay out of the
-stack, so a reboot replays neither.
-
-The daemon replays restart policies without replaying the `depends_on` graph, so
-after a reboot the containers come back in arbitrary order and each one tolerates
-a dependency that arrives late. `api.core` opens its database and S3 connections
-per request rather than at startup, and `frontend` answers with its own error
-states while `api.core` is still coming up.
-
-Health checks report when the stack has converged:
-
-| Service | Probe |
-| --- | --- |
-| `sqlserver` | `sqlcmd -Q 'SELECT 1'`, with a 30s start period and 12 retries |
-| `api.core` | `GET /health` spoken over bash's `/dev/tcp` — the .NET runtime image carries bash and no HTTP client |
-| `seaweedfs` | `curl http://localhost:8333/status`, the S3 gateway, which serves once the master, volume and filer servers are up |
-| `frontend` | `wget --spider http://127.0.0.1:5656/healthz`, answered by Express alone and so independent of the API |
-
-`sqlserver` also carries `stop_grace_period: 60s`, giving a checkpoint time to
-finish on shutdown instead of being recovered on the next start.
-
-Deploy and wait for the stack to report healthy, or check convergence after a
-reboot:
-
-```bash
-docker compose --env-file web/.env.prod -f web/docker-compose.prod.yaml up -d --wait
-docker compose --env-file web/.env.prod -f web/docker-compose.prod.yaml ps
-```
-
-#### Seeding production (`docker-compose.prod.seed.yaml`)
-
-`database.seed` lives in its own compose file, run on demand once the prod stack
-is up, `sqlserver` is healthy, and the schema is migrated:
-
-```bash
-docker compose --env-file web/.env.prod -f web/docker-compose.prod.seed.yaml \
-  run --rm --build database.seed
-```
-
-The job runs as the `biergarten-prod-seed` Compose project and attaches to the
-external `biergarten-prodnet` network, which the main prod stack creates, so it
-reaches `sqlserver` and `seaweedfs` under the same hostnames the API uses. It
-exits when seeding finishes; `--rm` removes the container. Bring the prod stack
-up first, because the seed project has no visibility into the other project's
-health checks, so a run started before SQL Server is accepting connections fails.
