- Patch local.config.php in one sed exec: * hostname, database, username, password * system.url via '#' delimiter to avoid URL slash escaping * Single notify: docker compose up - env.j2: * FRIENDICA_URL now uses domains|get_url(application_id, WEB_PROTOCOL) * Simplify FRIENDICA_DEBUGGING with |lower * Normalize spacing for readability - vars/main.yml: * Minor cleanups (comment header, spacing) * Consistent friendica_docker_ldap_config path construction Why: fewer container execs ⇒ faster runs; idempotent key updates; consistent URL configuration across env and PHP config. Risk: requires WEB_PROTOCOL and domains|get_url to be defined in inventory/vars as elsewhere in the project. https://chatgpt.com/share/689b92af-b184-800f-9664-2450e00b29d6
