Developer b1a66a1ab7 chore(observability): remove remaining observability env vars, docs
Slice 5 (final) of observability-service-registry. Completes the move to
service-registry-only observability config: no observability service env
vars remain.

- config.py: removed alertmanager_url + alertmanager_webhook_url fields.
- docker-compose.yml / docker-compose.dev.yml: removed ALERTMANAGER_URL,
  ALERTMANAGER_WEBHOOK_URL (backend env), and VITE_GRAFANA_URL,
  VITE_PROMETHEUS_URL (frontend build args / dev env).
- frontend/Dockerfile: removed the VITE_GRAFANA_URL / VITE_PROMETHEUS_URL
  ARG, build-stage ENV, and dev-stage ENV lines.
- docs: REQUIREMENTS decision-log entry; CHANGELOG Added/Changed/BREAKING
  for the observability service registry; backend/README monitoring
  section (Observability page, services page config, http_sd_configs,
  new health endpoints, log-only webhook).

The only observability env var remaining is PROMETHEUS_ENABLED (Manage's
own /metrics toggle). Grep-gated: no live references to the removed
vars/fields in backend src, frontend src, compose, or Dockerfile.

ruff clean; 239 backend tests pass; frontend 0 lint errors, build clean,
72 tests pass.

.env.example is assistant-edit-blocked; user follow-up noted in the SDD
tasks: drop the removed vars there too.

# Manage Backend API
FastAPI backend serving the REST API for Jellyfin media browsing, SSH file inspection, server monitoring, and JWT-protected access for Manage.

## Setup
```bash
cd backend
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e '.[dev]'
```
## Configuration
Set environment variables directly in your shell or a wrapper script before running the app or Compose. The Docker Compose files use interpolation and do not require an `env_file` entry.
For local `.env` development, you can still create one if you prefer, but it is optional.
```bash
# Optional backend logging level
LOG_LEVEL=INFO
# Optional SMTP settings for the Users -> message popup
SMTP_HOST=smtp.example.com
SMTP_PORT=587
SMTP_USERNAME=your-smtp-username
SMTP_PASSWORD=your-smtp-password
SMTP_FROM_ADDRESS=no-reply@example.com
SMTP_FROM_NAME=Manage
SMTP_USE_TLS=true
SMTP_USE_SSL=false
SMTP_TIMEOUT=30
# Jellyfin, Jellyseerr, and SSH targets are now configured per machine in the app's Settings tab.
# The backend seeds a local machine automatically, so no global Jellyfin or SSH env vars are required.
# Versioning
# The backend tries to auto-detect its version from installed package metadata.
# If needed, you can override the displayed version/build markers with APP_VERSION and APP_BUILD_INFO.
APP_VERSION=0.1.0
APP_BUILD_INFO=dev
# Authentik / OIDC
AUTH_ENABLED=true
OIDC_ISSUER_URL=https://authentik.example/application/o/media-library-viewer/
OIDC_AUDIENCE=media-library-viewer
OIDC_JWKS_URL=
OIDC_CLOCK_SKEW_SECONDS=30
```
## Running
```bash
cd backend
uvicorn media_library_viewer_api.main:app --reload --port 8000
```
Or with PYTHONPATH if not installed:
```bash
PYTHONPATH=src uvicorn media_library_viewer_api.main:app --reload --port 8000
```
API docs available at: <http://localhost:8000/docs>
## Docker
The repository root includes a production `docker-compose.yml` and a development `docker-compose.dev.yml`.
The backend media index is stored in the `backend_cache` Docker volume so it survives container restarts and image rebuilds.
The production compose file expects required environment variables to be supplied via interpolation (shell exports or inline `VAR=value docker compose ...`).
### Configuration workflow examples
1. Export your runtime variables before launching Compose:
```bash
export BACKEND_APP_HOST=manage.example.com
export FRONTEND_APP_HOST=manage.example.com
export CERT_RESOLVER=letsencrypt
export VITE_OIDC_ISSUER=https://authentik.example/application/o/manage/
export VITE_OIDC_CLIENT_ID=manage
export VITE_OIDC_REDIRECT_URI=https://manage.example.com/
export VITE_OIDC_POST_LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URI=https://manage.example.com/
docker compose up --build
```
1. After the API is running, open the app, go to **Settings**, and add machine entries:
- **Local**: monitors the API host itself without SSH.
- **SSH**: monitors another machine using a host, username, and a private key pasted directly into the machine settings, with an optional passphrase.
- The machine editor groups Connection, Monitoring / Files, Jellyfin, Jellyseerr, and Notes under separate headings so each service area is easier to scan.
- Saving a monitoring machine now validates the banner/auth flow, records the first trusted host key into the backend-managed `known_hosts` file, and starts the collector so charts populate without a separate manual step.
- If the host cannot be reached or authenticated, the save flow surfaces the SSH error directly in the dialog.
- Use **Validate SSH + trust host** in the machine editor before saving if you want to test the banner/auth flow explicitly.
- The first successful SSH connection uses trust-on-first-use: the backend records that machine's host key into its managed `known_hosts` file automatically, then continues verifying it strictly on later connects.
2. Open **Observability** to see Alertmanager alerts, Prometheus scrape targets, and Grafana deep-links for configured machines. Alertmanager, Grafana, and Prometheus are configured as service instances on the **Services** page; system metrics (disk, CPU, memory) are owned by the external observability stack (Prometheus + node_exporter + Grafana), not by the Manage backend.
For local development, `docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build` does not require an SSH key unless you configure remote SSH machines in the Settings tab.
