## 1. Cloudron API token — unblocks API-first access (asks also in #685/#727)

The #685 investigation ran over raw SSH (root@my.knownelement.com) because no
panel API token exists. A token lets the agent use the Cloudron API (apps,
configs, backups) instead of shell — cleaner audit trail, and the path for
future AWX/Ansible modules.

- [ ] Create an API token (panel: my.knownelement.com → your profile → API
      access, or `cloudron token create` via CLI) with read scope at minimum
- [ ] Drop the material value in `~/.creds/cloudron.env` as
      `CLOUDRON_API_TOKEN=<token>` (never in this repo)

## 2. docker daemon.json bounce window (see README "Ground truth")

Applying `perf/docker-daemon.json.planned` (nofile 262144 default + log
rotation + live-restore) requires ONE dockerd restart — every container
bounces (~300). live-restore is currently false so there is no zero-downtime
path. Until then the postgres nofile bridge is ephemeral (lost on postgres
container recreate).

- [ ] Pick a window (suggest: pre-storm weekday morning) — agent will ticket
      the runbook + execute on your go
