The frontend calls the API with relative paths (fetch('/api/...')), so in
production those requests hit the nginx frontend container on :8080 — which
previously only served the SPA and would 404 every API call and WebSocket
route. nginx.conf now proxies /api/ to the archnest-backend service with
WebSocket upgrade support, long timeouts for terminals/tunnels/transfers, and
a 1GB body limit matching the backend's upload cap.
The backend Dockerfile now installs python3/make/g++ in both the build and
runtime stages so the native modules (better-sqlite3, ssh2, node-pty) compile
on alpine instead of crashing the container at startup.
The deploy workflow gains a validate job (type-check + build both apps before
touching the host), a pre-flight check that refuses to deploy without the
host-side .env, and a post-deploy health check against /api/health and the
frontend, with concurrency guarding.
Builds the Vite app, serves it via nginx in a Docker container, and
deploys via SSH/SCP to racknerd1 on push to main. Also syncs the
out-of-date package-lock.json so npm ci works in CI/Docker builds.
