Summary

  • Local orchestration: a multi-stage Dockerfile (SPA + both binaries, non-root, ~36 MB), compose.yaml running the sidecar beside appleboy/gorush:1.22.0, and make up / up-gorush / down / logs / adminmake up brings the whole stack up; make up-gorush runs only gorush so the sidecar can iterate on the host via make run.
  • Production: render.yaml declaring the same two services (sidecar as a web service with a persistent disk for SQLite, gorush as a private service) on the same ports (8080/8088), so local and Render differ only in secrets and how service addresses are supplied.
  • Two code changes the push path required: iOS notifications now carry the APNs topic (--apns-topic/SIDECAR_APNS_TOPIC) — without it every push under .p8 token auth bounces MissingTopic; and a dependency-free GET /healthz for platform health checks (the alerts feed 404s until regions sync). NewGorush also accepts a scheme-less host:port (Render's fromService hostport has no scheme), and --addr now honors SIDECAR_ADDR/PORT.
  • Docs: README "Running locally with Docker" + a Render first-deploy checklist, CLAUDE.md commands, plus the design spec and implementation plan under docs/superpowers/.

Test plan

  • make fmt-check vet test test-tz test-race web-check — green (80 package runs across UTC + Asia/Kathmandu, race clean)
  • Changed packages lint clean (golangci-lint on cmd/..., internal/push/..., internal/httpapi/...); the one remaining repo lint failure (internal/obaapi/obaapi.go:439) predates this branch on main
  • make image builds; sidecar/sidecar-admin --help both run
  • deploy/smoke.sh passes against the running container (/healthz, /admin, alerts feed) and exits 1 with a -> 000 line on a dead port
  • Full compose stack (throwaway EC APNs key): both containers healthy, region set / user create via make admin, and the gorush feedback webhook — wrong secret → 401, correct secret → 200, BadDeviceToken prunes the registration
  • Webhook auth verified byte-for-byte through a freshly built image and a host binary
  • On-device push (needs a real Apple .p8 and a debug build pointed at http://<mac-ip>:8080) — deferred to the maintainer; the plan's Task 6 walks through it

Review notes (non-blocking, surfaced for the reviewer)

  • Render disk ownership: the image runs as a non-root sidecar user; if Render mounts the /data disk root-owned, sqlite can't create the DB and /healthz never goes green. Documented in the first-deploy checklist with two fixes (root entrypoint that chowns then drops privileges, or dropping USER sidecar) rather than changed, since it can't be verified without a live Render deploy.
  • Two-way fromService reference between the services in render.yaml: if Render rejects the Blueprint for a dependency cycle, the checklist names the fallback (drop the staging hostport var, read the internal address off the dashboard).
  • generateValue inside an env group: Render documents sync: false as ignored in env groups, so the shared webhook secret uses generateValue: true; generateValue in a group isn't explicitly documented either, so the checklist says to hand-set it if it comes up empty.
  • APNs topic is modeled on the transport, not per-registration: a white-label region app with a second bundle id can't be expressed today; called out for a future change (out of scope here).
  • gorush 1.22.0 refuses to start with all push platforms disabled, so make up needs a real (or throwaway) APNs key; noted in .env.example.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added Docker and Docker Compose support for running Sidecar with Gorush.
    • Added Render deployment configuration and persistent SQLite storage.
    • Added /healthz for service health checks.
    • Added APNs topic configuration and optional Android push settings.
    • Added smoke tests and commands for managing the local stack.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved listen-address configuration using SIDECAR_ADDR, PORT, or a default.
    • Added validation and warnings for invalid or incomplete push configuration.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded setup, deployment, environment-variable, and local Docker instructions.

Address the eight items from the final whole-branch review: drop the
`full` compose profile so `make up` always starts both services, make
deploy/smoke.sh resilient to unreachable hosts under set -e, pin
SIDECAR_DB in compose.yaml so a host path in .env can't leak into the
container, add PORT to gorush on Render for deterministic port
detection, bind gorush's port to localhost only (it holds the APNs key
and has no auth), document the GORUSH_IOS_ENABLED opt-out in
.env.example, and expand the README's Render checklist and Docker
quickstart with verify steps and fallbacks for the failure modes found
during review.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds APNs topic propagation and webhook-secret validation, an unauthenticated health endpoint, multi-stage Docker packaging, Docker Compose workflows, smoke checks, Render deployment configuration, environment documentation, and repository guidance.

Changes

Sidecar orchestration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Push configuration and runtime validation
.env.example, cmd/sidecar/*, internal/push/*, README.md, docs/superpowers/*
Sidecar accepts APNs topics, validates webhook secrets, selects listen addresses, and sends iOS topics to Gorush. Gorush normalizes gateway URLs and tests platform-specific payloads.
Health endpoint and smoke checks
internal/httpapi/*, deploy/smoke.sh, docs/superpowers/*
The router exposes /healthz. Tests and smoke checks validate health, admin, and alerts responses.
Local Docker stack
.dockerignore, Dockerfile, compose.yaml, Makefile, README.md, docs/superpowers/*
The Docker image builds the admin UI and both Go binaries. Compose runs Sidecar and Gorush with persistent storage, credentials, health-gated startup, and feedback routing.
Render deployment wiring
render.yaml, README.md, docs/superpowers/*
Render defines shared secrets, a persistent Sidecar web service, and a private Gorush service with APNs and feedback-hook configuration.
Repository guidance and deployment design
CLAUDE.md, docs/superpowers/*
Repository guidance and design records document commands, architecture, configuration, deployment procedures, verification coverage, and exclusions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 33b3e

The PR adds local and Render orchestration, but its documented Render fallback can leave gorush without feedback-prune configuration if a dependency cycle is rejected. The change is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to correct those deployment instructions.

has a two-way `fromService` reference (`sidecar`'s `SIDECAR_GORUSH_URL`
reads `gorush`'s `hostport`, and `gorush`'s
`GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_HOSTPORT` reads `sidecar`'s). If Render rejects
the Blueprint for a dependency cycle, delete the
`GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_HOSTPORT` entry from `render.yaml` and instead
read the sidecar's internal address from Dashboard → sidecar → Connect →
Internal.
2. Fill the `sync: false` secrets (the webhook secret is generated for you
and is not among them): on `sidecar`, `SIDECAR_APNS_TOPIC`,
`SIDECAR_OBA_API_KEY`, and `SIDECAR_PIRATE_WEATHER_KEY`; on `gorush`, the
three `GORUSH_IOS_*` credential values. Leave `GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_URL`
and `GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HEADER` blank at creation time; they are set in
the next step once the services exist. Verify: if the generated
`SIDECAR_GORUSH_WEBHOOK_SECRET` in group `sidecar-shared` comes up empty
(Render does not document `generateValue` inside env groups), set it by
hand to the output of `openssl rand -hex 32` and make sure both services
show the same value.
3. On the `gorush` service, set the two values Blueprint cannot derive: copy
the generated value from Dashboard → Environment Groups →
`sidecar-shared`, then set `GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HEADER` to
`authorization:` followed by that value, and
`GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_URL` to `http://` followed by the value Render
put in `GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_HOSTPORT` on the gorush service (a
staging var gorush itself never reads) followed by `/webhooks/gorush`.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Fix the dependency-cycle fallback instructions.

If Render rejects the dependency cycle, Step 1 removes GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_HOSTPORT. Step 3 then requires that variable to build GORUSH_CORE_FEEDBACK_HOOK_URL.

Under the fallback, instruct the operator to use the sidecar internal address from the Render dashboard. Otherwise gorush cannot be configured to send feedback prunes.
