- CI workflow: `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — build -> docker -> deploy on push to main or feature branches. `paths-ignore` skips the whole pipeline for docs-only / `.planning/` / `.claude/` / `*.md` changes (push and PR triggers).
- Build caches (parallel `actions/cache@v4` steps in the `build` job): `~/.m2/repository` (key on all `pom.xml`), `~/.npm` (key on `ui/package-lock.json`), `ui/node_modules/.vite` (key on `ui/package-lock.json` + `ui/vite.config.ts`). UI install uses `npm ci --prefer-offline --no-audit --fund=false` so the npm cache is the primary source.
- Maven build performance (set in `pom.xml` and `cameleer-server-app/pom.xml`): `useIncrementalCompilation=true` on the compiler plugin; Surefire uses `forkCount=1C` + `reuseForks=true` (one JVM per CPU core, reused across test classes); Failsafe keeps `forkCount=1` + `reuseForks=true`. Unit tests must not rely on per-class JVM isolation.
- UI build script (`ui/package.json`): `build` is `vite build` only — the type-check pass was split out into `npm run typecheck` (run separately when you want a full `tsc --noEmit` sweep).
- Docker: multi-stage build (`Dockerfile`), `$BUILDPLATFORM` for native Maven on ARM64 runner, amd64 runtime. `docker-entrypoint.sh` imports `/certs/ca.pem` into JVM truststore before starting the app (supports custom CAs for OIDC discovery without `CAMELEER_SERVER_SECURITY_OIDCTLSSKIPVERIFY`).
-`REGISTRY_TOKEN` build arg required for `cameleer-common` dependency resolution
- Secrets managed in CI deploy step (idempotent `--dry-run=client | kubectl apply`): `cameleer-auth`, `cameleer-postgres-credentials`, `cameleer-clickhouse-credentials`
- K8s probes: server uses `/api/v1/health`, PostgreSQL uses `pg_isready -U "$POSTGRES_USER"` (env var, not hardcoded)
- K8s security: server and database pods run with `securityContext.runAsNonRoot`. UI (nginx) runs without securityContext (needs root for entrypoint setup).
- Docker: server Dockerfile has no default credentials — all DB config comes from env vars at runtime
