New roles/sys-svc-container/templates/env.j2 sets TZ={{ HOST_TIMEZONE }} and LANG=C.UTF-8. Every role env.j2 includes it at the top; it renders via stack_host_template, the same engine that resolves the includes in compose.yml.j2, so it works in both compose and swarm. TZ/LANG are removed from the individual role env.j2 so each value stays single-source.
New lint tests/lint/ansible/test_env_base_include.py verifies every role env.j2 includes the base and never re-sets a base-owned key (keys derived from the base file).
mattermost and gitea meta/volumes.yml drop the /etc/timezone host-path bind: swarm hard-rejects a task whose bind source is missing on the node (Debian-trixie nodes have no /etc/timezone). TZ now comes from the base env. /etc/localtime bind also dropped; the container timezone follows TZ.
Non-directive comments were removed from the touched env.j2 (banners, restatements, reference URLs, narration) so the changed files pass the comment-lint; only tool directives remain.

Across 23 web-app env.j2 templates, drop the surrounding "..." from
plain KEY="value" entries. compose silently strips them at env_file
parse time, but docker stack deploy preserves them literally, so the
container then sees KEY="value" with the quotes embedded and parsers
that call int(os.environ['KEY']) or split URLs/DSNs break under swarm.
The change is mechanical: every removed line was `KEY="value"` and
every added line is the same `KEY=value` without surrounding quotes.
Lines that use `| dotenv_quote` are untouched because that filter
deliberately produces escaped values for env_file consumers; the
existing password-quote integration test continues to require it for
sensitive variables.

The TLS lookup has been renamed from `tls_resolve` to `tls` to better
reflect its responsibility as a strict TLS state resolver.
This refactor updates all usages across the codebase, including:
- lookup plugins and internal helpers
- roles, vars, tasks, and templates
- tests, stubs, and error messages
- documentation and changelog references
Behavior, lookup API, and semantics remain unchanged.
https://chatgpt.com/share/6985e635-5a94-800f-b794-937e566ee308
- Remove deprecated filter_plugins/tls.py and all dependent filters
- Introduce strict lookup plugin lookup_plugins/tls_resolve.py as single TLS authority
- Migrate all roles, templates, vars, and tasks to use tls_resolve (protocols, ports, URLs, cert paths)
- Enforce explicit TLS context (domains, applications, TLS_ENABLED, TLS_MODE)
- Support letsencrypt and self_signed with SAN handling and per-app overrides
- Update TLS provider roles to assert resolver state instead of setting facts
- Add comprehensive unit tests for tls_resolve lookup
https://chatgpt.com/share/6972b49b-b074-800f-a323-dd9fe69d02eb
with explicit per-application TLS resolution.
Key changes:
- Introduce sys-front-tls-layer as the single TLS abstraction
- Centralize certificate paths via TLS_CERT_FILE / TLS_KEY_FILE / TLS_CA_FILE
- Replace sys-svc-letsencrypt SSL templates with generic TLS layer includes
- Add tls_* Jinja filters (enabled, mode, protocol, port, websocket)
- Resolve TLS mode per application (letsencrypt | self_signed | off)
- Remove implicit defaults and WEB_* globals to fail fast on misconfiguration
- Support self-signed certificates with SAN awareness
- Make TLS behavior explicit and consistent across all roles
This decouples application logic from certificate providers and
allows switching TLS flavor without touching app roles.

Use a short, stable container hostname derived from the entity name and move the
public FQDN to a dedicated domain variable. This prevents DNS suffix expansion
(e.g. postgres.<domain>) inside the container and avoids accidental resolution
to localhost.
- Introduce entity_name and domain variables
- Set container hostname to entity name instead of FQDN
- Use CHESS_DOMAIN for APP_DOMAIN instead of container hostname

- Move entrypoint to files/ and deploy via copy
- Parameterize APP_KEY_FILE, data dir, and entrypoint paths
- Require explicit PORT/PG envs (remove fallbacks)
- Drop stray header from config/main.yml
- Dockerfile: use templated data dir & entrypoint; keep node user
- Compose: set custom image, adjust volume mapping
- env: derive APP_SCHEME from WEB_PROTOCOL; NODE_ENV from ENVIRONMENT
- tasks: add 01_core and simplify main to include it

- Added network subnet (192.168.103.192/28) and port 8050 for web-app-chess
- Replaced stub README with usability-focused description of castling.club
- Implemented config, vars, meta, and tasks for web-app-chess
- Added Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, env, and docker-entrypoint.sh templates
- Integrated entrypoint asset placement
- Updated meta to reflect usability and software features
