Add API proxy endpoint so users can access running tool instances
through the backend API instead of internal Docker network.
Backend:
- Add container_name field to ToolInstance model
- Create /instances/{id}/proxy/{path:path} endpoint with ownership checks
- Proxy HTTP requests to containers via docker network using container names
- Support all HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, HEAD, OPTIONS)
- Store proxy URL in instance.url instead of localhost
- Add Alembic migration 0007 for container_name column
- Add get_container_name() utility to docker.py
Frontend:
- Update Open button to use full proxy URL (API_BASE_URL + instance.url)
Closes instance-proxy OpenSpec change.

## Why
|
|
|
|
Tool instances (code-server, jupyter-notebook) run inside Docker containers with internal network addresses. Currently the "Open" button links to `http://localhost:{port}`, which only works from inside the API container and fails when opened from the user's browser. We need a way to expose these instances to users over HTTPS.
|
|
|
|
## What Changes
|
|
|
|
- Add a proxy endpoint to the backend API: `/instances/{id}/proxy/{path:path}`
|
|
- Proxy requests from the API to the running container (via docker network or internal IP)
|
|
- Update frontend "Open" button to use the proxy URL instead of `localhost`
|
|
- Add WebSocket proxy support for real-time features (terminal already uses WebSocket)
|
|
- Ensure only the instance owner can access the proxied content
|
|
|
|
## Capabilities
|
|
|
|
### New Capabilities
|
|
|
|
- `instance-proxy`: HTTP proxying for running tool instances through the API
|
|
|
|
### Modified Capabilities
|
|
|
|
- None (this is purely an infrastructure/transport feature, not a change to existing capability requirements)
|
|
|
|
## Impact
|
|
|
|
- Backend: New proxy endpoint, container network discovery, request forwarding
|
|
- Frontend: Update instance "Open" link to use proxy URL
|
|
- Docker: Containers must be reachable from API container (already true via docker network)
|
|
- Security: Owner-only access enforced at proxy level |
